Emperor Wan Yan of the Jin State, the age was nine years old at the time, if there was no strong support from Mu Han, he was just a nobleman, the Jurchen pursued the "father dies and the son succeeds, and the brother dies and the brother ends", when the first emperor Wan Yan Sheng was alive, by virtue of the fact that the eldest brother had died of illness, he wanted to pass the throne to his eldest son Wan Yan Zongpan, but Mu Han led the ministers in the court to resolutely protest, and finally forced Wan Yan Sheng, and had to choose the heir to the throne as the grandson of Akuta Wan Yan Kang.

After I officially met Yan Ling, it was on the third night of his drive in the barracks, and that day, I remember very well, was the Chinese New Year's Eve of the eleventh year of Shaoxing.

The purpose of Wan Yan Kang's arrival is very simple, but out of the child's heart, he wants to leave Beijing to have fun, but Sa Gai has added thought here, and the name of setting up a banquet for Wan Yan Kang has become a congratulatory ceremony to celebrate the defeat of the Song army.

"King Chenlu, bring the princess to meet the emperor."

"Yuan Zheng Qizuo, the product is salty and new, Gongwei His Majesty the Emperor is resting with the sky, Wan Chun Festival, I would like to live the longevity, I wish His Majesty the Emperor long live, long live!"

I said respectfully, and then I was about to get up and bow three times and nine times to the child sitting on the throne, but before I could get up, his impatient voice came from above my head: "No need to worship, no need to worship, I can see that my head hurts, Uncle Huang, when will the banquet start?" ”

In the end, it was a child, his voice was a little immature, and his personal likes and dislikes were completely expressed on his face, and the Liduo next to him immediately got up to help me, and then waved his hand to play music, so there were groups of dancing girls rushing in, and the scene was lively and lively.

In the middle of the wide snowfield, there were several vigorous bonfires burning, reflecting the faces of each dancing girl, exuding a charming luster, and Lido took my hand and walked back to his seat, although he was a prince, his position was far from the main seat of Wan Yan Kang, almost to the extent that he was on an equal footing with the ordinary ministers of the Jin Kingdom.

I remembered what he once said to me, "The official falls by three levels and loses a hundred lands", and my heart was full of mixed feelings for a while.

"What are you thinking?"

His concerned voice summoned me out of my trance, and I lowered my head and said, "It's nothing, it's just that this palace doesn't like to be lively, and I feel uncomfortable right now, and I want to ask the prince to resign." ”

Hearing this, he gently stroked the messy hair on my sideburns, this action made me a little trance, I slowly raised my eyes, and found that he did not feel disappointed at all because I wanted to leave the table, and said to me with a gentle face: "Your mood is understandable, and let you go." ”

A warm current surged in my heart, and I was about to get up to leave, but the excitement of the banquet was suddenly interrupted by a person.

He stopped the music, and then said loudly: "I have heard for a long time that the prosperous place of smoke and willows in the south of the Yangtze River is famous for singing and dancing, I don't know if Princess Hanyi can show her dancing posture today, so that I can feast my eyes." ”

That person sat opposite Sticky Han, I had heard someone call him Shang Shuling, and I guessed in my heart that his identity was the Wanyan Zongpan who was only one step away from the throne, if he said this from the mouth of Liduo, I still have a little pride in my heart, after all, my talent can be recognized by my husband, and it is also a thing worth being happy about, but Wanyan Zongpan and I don't know each other, listening to his tone, it seems that I am a dancing girl in the wine shop, I don't know if he is targeting Liduo, or me, So he had a cold face and didn't say a word for a long time.

"Why, Princess Hanyi doesn't have a good skin, but it's actually just a showcase? If that's the case, then I'll give King Lu a cup. ”

His tone became even more arrogant, and he picked up the wine in his hand and drank it slowly.

I just pretended that I hadn't heard anything, the scene was extremely embarrassing, and the group of female real dancers, because the music was interrupted, didn't know if they should go down, and they all stood quietly.

I secretly used my afterglow to look at Liduo, but found that his expression was very calm, he raised the wine in his hand towards Zongpan, drank it slowly, and his face did not change, just when I thought that he would choose to swallow his anger because of his status under Wanyan Zongpan, he suddenly smashed the wine bowl, pulled out the knife on his waist, and flew towards Wanyan Zongpan, the movement was so fast that it was smacking, and when I reacted, I only saw the knife standing in front of Wanyan Zongpan's table, still shaking.

"This king's wife, when will it be your turn to summon me!"

"Lie Duo, you dare to ......"

"yes, what's going on with you?"

Seeing this, Wan Yan hurriedly spoke to mediate: "Don't hurt the harmony of the two uncles, today is a celebration, for the sake of my face, you should let go of the grievances on weekdays first." ”

Liduo said: "Since the emperor has spoken, the ministers should obey the order, today Princess Hanyi is unwell, Fang Cai also bowed, and the wine was also saluted, now she wants to go back to rest, can the emperor agree?" ”

"That's nature, the princess came from afar, she is not accustomed to the water and soil, and she should take care of it."

After Yan Yan's words, he said it very respectfully, which surprised me a little, probably because the ministers he faced were all because of his uncles and elders, so he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, it was not easy for him to be the emperor.

"Did King An hear the emperor's words?"

Wanyan Zongpan snorted coldly, turned his head, and Liduo didn't pay attention to it anymore, and nodded at me, I knew what he meant, so I bowed to him, and left in the eyes of everyone.

On the way back, I was very worried, thinking back to my days in Jinguo, I often suspected that he was just setting up a tent to support me, but whenever I remembered him talking to me, looking at my eyes, I would firmly deny my own thoughts.

I remember the day he sent me back to my residence from the martial arts field, I was silent all the way, and finally came to the tent door, I said goodbye to him, but the moment I turned around, he grabbed his arm, I looked at him, I don't know what he was doing, he said to me in a firm and somewhat sad tone: "This king used to have no desires and no desires, and he has always been idle, and it is the king's fault, but today this king assures you that from now on, you will not be wronged by this again." ”

I never thought of myself as a weak woman, but when I first came to Jinguo, I had an unknown fear of Jurchen things, and I was frightened for days, and there was indescribable sourness, at that moment, all turned into tears, I quickly entered the account, only complaining about my own incompetence, but my heart was deeply moved by his words.

The banquet in the distance was as lively as ever, I looked at a few bleak stars in the sky, and sighed softly, I don't know what kind of scene the Great Song Dynasty was at this time, who would have thought that the general who was no longer alive?

Thinking of my Hanyi, I have always been held in the hands of my father and obeyed, but only in Yue Fei's case, I did not obey my mind, my father told me that this is a move that the emperor will make, I remember that I was at that time, and said to him with red eyes: "Just because the person sitting on the throne is you."

I sat down against the tent door with the gong hou in my arms, slowly plucked the tune, and whispered, "I couldn't stop singing last night. Shocked back to the dream of a thousand miles, it has been three watches. Get up and walk around the stairs alone. People are quiet, and the moon is bright outside the curtain. ”

Justice is at ease in people's hearts, and the world will judge right and wrong, and all I can do is to silently pay tribute to him in my heart, but when I raised my head, I found a Kong Ming lantern, rising in the sky not far away, I can't believe that at this moment, there are people who have the same state of mind as me, and they are even more bold and put it into action.

"The white head is famous. The old mountain pine and bamboo are old, blocking the return journey. I want to put my heart into Yaoqin. There are few bosom friends, who listens to broken strings? ”

A person walked over on the other side of the voice, and by the faint light, I gradually saw his face, which was the Golden Vulture.

"This is a cheerful song, but you play it so sadly, it seems that you are sad?"

"The song is cheerful, but if the listener has no intention, how can he hear the sadness, why is the prince not sad? It's just that Han Yi is alone, uprooted from his hometown, sad and sad falls to reason, but the prince's status is noble, one person calls, ten thousand people respond, now Yue Fei is dead, and the Great Song Dynasty is invincible again, where does this sadness come from? ”

"What do you think...... Will this king be happy because of Yue Fei's death? ”

He sighed, raised the wine in his hand, slowly spilled it on the ground, and then looked at me with a solemn expression.

I didn't know what to say, so I lowered my head and played with the strings of the piano wildly, and after a long time, I heard him speak: "We are just our own masters, and we can't help ourselves, and it is indeed ironic that this king has no ability to defeat him on the battlefield, but he relies on conspiracy and calculation behind his back...... Oh, the one who really wins, it's always him. ”

His words made me begin to reacquaint myself with this person who once only existed in the palace rumors, who turned out to "search the mountains and check the sea", forcing my father and the emperor to take his younger brother Zhao Yang and me to wander on the sea for three months.

"Why didn't the princess speak, but it made the king feel that he was abrupt."

I smiled slightly: "King Liang's words are serious, Han Yi just thinks that he can't interfere in things on the battlefield, and his words and deeds have always been weightless, otherwise he won't be with your country, and the success or failure of right or wrong is judged by the winner, but the prince classifies himself as the defeated side, which really makes Han Yi dare not answer." ”

"I see." He smiled bitterly, and then asked me, "I don't know what is victory and what defeat is in the eyes of the princess?" ”

"This ......"

I wanted to say that winning the battle is victory, and losing the battle is defeat, but I knew in my heart that such a simple word would never be the answer he wanted to hear, so I hesitated for a long time and didn't answer.

"When the king led the iron cavalry behind him and set foot on the Song land that was conquered by himself, there was a sudden question in his heart, Dajin and the Great Song Dynasty have been fighting and killing for so many years, what is it for, we got the land, but we have to learn the management system from you, we Jurchen, from the nomadic scattering hundreds of years ago, to the establishment of the capital today, but for the past of their own country, they don't know as much as you Song people, who conquered whom?"

I was shocked by these words, which I had never expected, and I looked at him and asked in a low voice, "Why did the prince say this to this palace?" ”

"Maybe it's been in my heart for a long time, and I want to find someone to talk to, you just have to listen to it, probably, only this king has this kind of thought."

I inexplicably felt a sense of admiration from my heart, but more than that, it was my gratitude for being able to tell my true thoughts in my heart to me, a foreign princess, he looked at me and suddenly said, "Princess......"

"Huh?"

"Do you resent our Jurchen?"

I just think it's a familiar question, and it seems like someone has asked me before, but because of the long time, I don't remember it very clearly.

I smiled awkwardly: "Naturally, there is, the shame of losing the country, the pain of losing the family, if you don't even feel these things, how can you be worthy of being born?" It's just that the weak eat the strong, it has always been like this, the ancestors lost their morality, and the younger generations had no choice, and the hatred of Hanyi was more than resentment. ”

"You can think about it." He said.

"The world is not the world of one person, the world of the world, if the prince can think like this, he can look down on everything, whether it is the Jin country, or the Song country, the vicissitudes of life are just a moment, only the people's hearts remain unchanged, sometimes the palace thinks like this, and feels that it is the best to live, not to mention, in the eyes of the palace, in fact, in the heart of the prince, there are more things to pursue, and there will never be between Song and Jin, this kind of conquest or not is entangled for too long."

"Oh, yes, let's hear it." He was a little unconvinced, and I could guess what was on his mind, and his tone was very unimpressed.

"What the prince asks for is nothing more than the power of the world and the dynasty is not taboo, the merit is high and the lord is not suspicious, I don't know the palace, can I say it wrong?"

At that moment, I saw a stunned look in the eyes of the Golden Vulture, as if someone had discovered it and had hidden a secret for a long time, but I quickly lowered my head and said calmly: "This palace is guessing, don't go to your heart." ”

He stared at me stunned, for a long time, and actually smiled: "This king was still curious before, what is the ability of a woman who can get the favor of my third brother, but I have to sigh when I see it today, the third brother is really blessed." ”

I was shocked when I heard this, and I was relieved when I was sure that his words did not mean to be ironic.

He continued: "You don't know, the third brother, he cares about you very much, the night he returned to the camp to report on work, he deliberately wiped the blood on his face and changed into clean clothes before coming to see you, I thought that he would never be able to go out, the knot in the heart of the concubine of Tanqu." ”

"Concubine Tanqu?"

"She is the adoptive mother of the third brother, I don't think you know, Liduo is the adopted son of my father Aguta, after his father brought him back, he has been raised by the Tanqu Concubine, but later, the Tanqu Concubine died of poisoning, on the night of the third brother's birthday."

"There is such a thing, the murderer ......"

He shook his head: "There is no whereabouts so far." ”

At that moment, the heart seemed to skip a beat, I can imagine what kind of blow such a change was for Zhen Liduo, Jin Wushu raised his head, looked at the night sky and said, "Actually...... Today is my third brother's birthday, but you know, no one will mention it, and no one will care. ”

I suddenly realized that all along, I was just immersed in my own world, although I emphasized in my heart that King Lu was his husband, but I never really cared about him, it turned out that although I was a prince, but my life was not glamorous, but even so, he could always maintain a gentle and polite attitude towards me, and there was no decadence and irritability caused by frustration at all, which was really valuable.

I thought I should do something for him on this special day.
