Chapter 164: Repatriation of the Harem
"Brother."
"Brother."
When the leaders outside the imperial city saw Shi Jin's arrival, they stepped forward to greet him.
Shi Jin smiled: "Brothers have worked hard. β
Ruan Xiaoqi said dissatisfied: "The officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty are too useless, I ran in with my brothers desperately, but I didn't catch up with the fight." β
"Wouldn't it be good that Song Bing didn't have eggs, how much less fighting."
Shi Jin said, looking at Xuande Building.
Xuande Building is located in the south of the palace, and it is also the main gate of the palace, with five gates, gold nails and vermilion lacquer. The carved beams and painted buildings above, covered with glazed tiles, curved rulers and many floors, Zhu Column color thresholds, very magnificent.
When the emperor of the Song Dynasty sacrificed and enjoyed with the people, it was held in the Xuande Building.
However, now the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty has long fled, and there are only a few dozen Banzhi defenders left on the Xuande Tower, the last dignity of the Song Dynasty royal family.
Dong Ping saw Shi Jin looking at Xuande Tower, so he said: "There are only two or three hundred soldiers and horses guarding the imperial city, and there are even fewer people guarding the other palace gates. As long as my brother gives an order, we can attack in one drum. β
Shi Jin shook his head and said, "Since Zhao Ji has escaped, we don't want the palace to be stained with blood." Zhao Ji is mediocre, but the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty still love the people, and for the sake of the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty, all the concubines in the harem were exempted from the sin, and the palace guards sent them to Zhao Ji. For a limited time, Kaejo will surrender. β
Seeing Shi Jin's order, Lu Fang immediately hit his horse and shouted: "King Ren has a decree to exempt all the concubines in the harem from their sins, and send them to Zhao Ji with the palace guards." For a limited time, Kaejo will surrender. β
Dong Ping was still thinking about the merry leader of the harem concubines, but he was a little disappointed, but he saw that Lu Fang had already sent an order. Don't dare to say more.
Ban Zhi, who was difficult to ride a tiger upstairs in Xuande, heard Lu Fang shouting, and immediately started to discuss.
"Could they be lying to us?"
"I heard that Shi Jin is a man of his word."
"There are only a few dozen of us. They can come up to the city with a single drum, and they will deceive us. β
"Then open the gates, lest they regret it."
"Let's open the city, we protect the queen and others, and we can be regarded as meritorious."
After a little discussion, the city went to work and opened the palace gate.
Seeing the palace gate open, everyone in Liangshan felt a little dreamlike.
Inside is the Royal Palace. Where the Son of Heaven lives, a place where many officials cannot step into it.
Shi Jin suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said to Lu Fang and Guo Sheng: "You bring your own soldiers to take over the defense of the palace. The rest of the units returned to the camp. β
As soon as the words fell, Ruan Xiaoqi immediately shouted: "Brother, I want to go into the palace to have a look." β
Ruan Xiaoer and many other leaders also looked expectant.
Shi Jin saw everyone's expressions and said with a smile: "Arrange soldiers and horses first." Then you can live in the palace if you want. Zhao Ji was sent out of the harem. Each ministry can take turns to enter the palace to see. Everyone took Tokyo, but they didn't even enter the Imperial Palace. β
Ruan Xiaoqi heard that Shi Jin asked the soldiers below to also enter the palace to take a look, and couldn't help but shout: "Brother is righteous." β
"Brother is righteous."
Ruan Xiaoer and others also followed suit.
Although Xiao Jiasui felt that Shi Jin's decision violated the etiquette system, they also relied on those soldiers to enter the palace, and Shi Jin's female dependents were still in Jeju, so there was no inconvenience in general, so there was nothing to say.
LΓΌ Fang and Guo Sheng led troops into the palace to control the Song Dynasty and take over the defense of the imperial city. The leaders of the various tribes led their troops to the military camp in the city.
Shi Jin and Xiao Jiasui, escorted by several personal soldiers, rode into the palace from the main gate.
Enter the Imperial City. Looking at the magnificent and splendid palace not far away, Shi Jin couldn't help but say excitedly: "I didn't expect us to be able to enter the palace so soon." β
Xiao Jiasui was calmer and said with a smile: "When I was in Liangshan, I watched my brother distribute money and food to help the victims, and I had a heart-to-heart relationship with the cottage brothers, so I felt that my brother was likely to be the lord of the world in the future. I didn't expect it to be so soon. However, as Zhu Junshi said, my brother was able to get the blessed land of Liangshan back then, which proves that he is a lucky person. β
Shi Jin said with a smile: "Maybe there is some luck, but the more important thing is the support of Tianxingdao and the brothers." β
"Shi Jin, you said that we would escort the queen away! Do you want to be untrustworthy? β
While the two were talking and laughing, someone in Ban Zhizhong, who was driven to the side by Lu Fang with his own soldiers, suddenly shouted.
Lu Fang saw that this guy had disturbed Shi Jin and Xiao Jiasui talking, and immediately scolded: "Shut up." β
Shi Jin saw that Lu Fang had already surrendered their weapons, so he hit his horse and walked up to him, and said, "I am a good man in Liangshan. Lu Fang, gather all the Song troops in the palace in one place, and then let them escort all the concubines, eunuchs, and palace maids out of the city, and remember to give them weapons. The people in the palace can bring some luggage, but they are not allowed to bring the important weapons of the country. You check the package, you must not search your body, you must not use the excuse to molest the woman, and the offender will be beheaded. β
Lu Fang responded loudly: "Yes." β
Song Chaoban looked directly at Shi Jin's courtesy to Concubine Zhao Ji, and they all admired it.
Shi Jin explained a few words, and then he turned his horse to the Jinluan Palace.
Xiao Jiasui followed Shi Jin and walked a few steps, and said, "I'm afraid that there are not thousands of concubines, palace maids, and eunuchs in this harem, and I'm afraid that there are not enough two or three hundred guards." Brother He no longer selected some soldiers and horses from the Song army captives to escort them. β
Shi Jin looked at Xiao Jiasui and said with a smile: "The military advisor seems to have a deep meaning? β
Xiao Jiasui said with a smile: "I can't hide it from my brother, I want the people of the world to know the difference between my brother and the Song Dynasty." The first thing my brother did when he entered the city was to visit the people who were injured by us, which was enough to let the people of the world know that my brother loved the people. But with another comparison, the people will see it more clearly. Zhao Ji must have fled to Jiangnan, and he must have been harassed along the way. If these thousands of harem people go south again, it will be easier for us to go south. β
Shi Jinli sent Zhao Ji's harem concubines, palace maids, and eunuchs to the south, but he didn't want to take away other people's rivers and mountains and sleep with other people's wives and daughters, as for the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, he always felt that they were a group of psychologically distorted people, and he couldn't believe it, so he simply threw them to Zhao Ji together, and didn't think too much about it.
However, when I heard Xiao Jiasui's strategy, I was also a little surprised.
These thousands of people are arrogant and accustomed to it, and people eat horses and chew a lot, so if they really let them go all the way south, I am afraid that all the places along the way will suffer, and even if the people dare not rebel, they will inevitably be boiling with resentment.
Thinking of this, Shi Jin said to a personal soldier beside him: "You go and order the head of the Lin sect and ask him to select five thousand forbidden troops of the Song Dynasty to escort Zhao Ji's harem and others." β
"Yes."
The soldiers took the order and left.
Xiao Jiasui said with a smile: "Brother is still too merciful, if you send 100,000 forbidden troops of the Song Dynasty to escort them down, I'm afraid that without us sending troops, the people along the way will be forced to rebel by them." β
Shi Jin shook his head and said: "This strategy is already unkind to the people along the way, how can it be too much." β
Xiao Jiasui said: "Brother is merciful. (To be continued......)
