Chapter 3 Spring Breeze Ten Miles Yizhou Road

In the spring of the first year of Zhihe [1328], Emperor Taiding went out to hunt in the willow forest and returned to the palace with illness.

On July 10, the 34-year-old Emperor Taiding died of illness in Shangdu [present-day Duolun County, Inner Mongolia]. Yan Tiemur, who stayed in Dadu [Beijing], in accordance with the predetermined coup plan, used the powerful conditions of "holding the privy seal of Dadu" and leading the commander of the left guard's pro-army, while talking to the king of Wei, Amu Ge, was a warrior and plotted to make a move; On the one hand, he secretly ordered his younger brother Satun and Zitang Qishi to sneak back to Dadu from above.

coerced the Son of Heaven and ordered the princes,

Cattle and horses to ask for court.

At dawn on August 4, Yan Tiemur led 17 of his henchmen to rush into the Xingsheng Palace and announced in public: "The ancestors are orthodox and belong to the son of Emperor Zaiwu, and those who dare to disobey will be beheaded."

At that time, the soldiers were all exposed, and no one dared to disobey. Yan Tiemur is to tie Pingzhang political affairs Wu Bo Du Thorn, Bo Yan Cha'er, and ordered the warriors to be the Zhongshu Zuo Cheng Duoduo, the Governor Wang Shixi, the Senator Zhongshu Provincial Affairs, Wu Bingdao, the Imperial Shi Qiu Shijie, the Zhishu Imperial Shi Tuhuan, the Prince Zhan Shicheng Wang Heng and others were arrested and imprisoned, and the rest were scattered.

Then, Yan Tiemur "sealed the treasury, detained the seals of the hundred divisions, and sent troops to guard the key points" and controlled the power of Dadu.

After the coup d'Γ©tat in Dadu, eighteen people, including the king of Yan Temur's party in Shangdu, were also prepared to act according to the original plan, but after the matter was revealed, they were killed by Barbed Sand.

In order to resist the military attack of Shangdu externally and defend the capital of Dadu internally, so as to command the world, Yan Tiemur urgently needed to welcome a new monarch to control the situation. Yan Tiemur immediately sent Brother Amu, the king of Wei, to gallop to Jiangling, and supported Wang Tu Timu'er to Dadu to inherit the unification.

On September 13, Tu Ti Mu'er was the emperor in Dadu, which was Wenzong, and the year name was changed to the first year of the Tianli calendar.

At the same time, the kings and ministers of Shangdu, under the auspices of Barbed Sha, supported the crown prince Asuji Ba as the emperor, and changed the first year of Zhihe to the first year of Tianshun.

At this time, there were two emperors in the Great Yuan Dynasty, the Xiangning King who was loyal to the Tianshun Emperor was lost in the Eight Thorns [Taiding Emperor's nephew], and the Zhao King Zhalhan raised troops in response to Shangdu and occupied Jinning [now Linfen, Shanxi]; The Shaanxi Imperial Historian also marched eastward with Timur and occupied Hezhong [present-day Yongji, Shanxi], and Jing'an Wang Kuobuhua marched from Henan to force Hugaoguan Pass [located in the territory of Bishui Town, 16 kilometers northwest of present-day Xingyang City, Henan Province].

Although most of the Shangdu army's offensive suffered great setbacks, on the whole, Emperor Tianshun still had a great advantage.

Just as the Shangdu soldiers were fighting a tug-of-war with the Dadu army commanded by Yan Tiemur on the front line of the Gyeonggi Great Wall, Yan Tiemur's uncle, the marshal of the Mongolian capital on the East Road, Buhua Timur, took advantage of the emptiness in the rear of Shangdu to join with Timur, the king of Qi, Yuelu and others, and took the opportunity to attack Shangdu with surprise troops.

On October 14, Barb Sha and others who stayed in Shangdu had no choice but to surrender to Buhua Timur "with the emperor's treasure", but Emperor Tianshun did not know what to do. When Wang Chan of Liang heard the news, he fled, and the king of Liao was killed by Timur, the king of Qi.

With the surrender of Barbed Sand, the Shangdu army collapsed, and the forces supporting Shangdu immediately turned to local development.

When Emperor Wen won a complete victory in Shangdu, the Shaanxi army loyal to Emperor Tianshun launched an attack on Dadu in three ways.

Under the repeated instructions of Emperor Wen, Shaanxi was ordered to withdraw its troops in November.

Soon after the Shaanxi army was dismissed, there was another Sichuan Province Pingzhang political affairs Nang Jiatai who proclaimed himself the king of Zhenxi and called the army to rebel against the imperial court. Wenzong repeatedly sent envoys to summon Nangjiatai to pardon his innocence, hoping that he would be able to submit to the imperial court.

In March of the second year of the Tianli calendar [1329], Nangjiatai listened to the edict. Shu is flat, and all the soldiers are gone.

Nine days out of Chengdu,

Thousands of households and thousands of doors into the drawing;

The grass and trees and clouds and mountains are like splendor,

Qin Chuan has no time here.

The chaotic war did not affect the comfort of Chengdu. The city has everything you love: good food, beautiful scenery and beautiful women. In particular, every corner of the city has vividly rendered its unique characteristics of leisure, optimism, tranquility, prosperity and freedom.

In April, spring blossoms. Wang Sichang was going to hold a trial singing banquet for the singer Liu, and he invited celebrities from all walks of life in the military, politics and literature. Ji Xu is a well-known local talent, so he is also invited.

Ji Xu is the first time to come to Shuaifu, although the Ji family compound is the richest man in Sichuan, but how can his own manor compare to the grandeur and luxury of Shuaifu.

Walking into the gate of the Shuaifu, there is a straight passage in front of you, and the ground paved with fine white jade shines with a warm light; The eaves made of sandalwood rafters resemble blue birds that want to fly; The gray brick carved floating window looks elegant and quiet; The wall panels stacked with jade are both solemn and firm.

When he came to the drawing-room, there were many guests.

Due to Ji Xu's young age, he couldn't talk to other literati and ink writers, so he pushed open the door of the living room and came to the back garden of the Shuaifu.

The garden is very quiet, with only a few birds chasing and singing among the flowers and trees. Ji Xu paced towards the sea of flowers.

[3] "Bead Curtain. Remember to come to Mrs. Wei. word

Remember to come to the twilight of spring,

Handle the flowers,

Sleeve dyeing flower dew.

Dark Bu Spring Heart Flower Language,

Compete for the double duo to go first.

In the evening of late spring, the willows are gently swayed, and the begonia flowers are in full bloom, shaking the fragrance all over the ground.

A girl with a pair of pigtails is squatting under the begonia tree, picking up the petals one by one, gently putting them into a delicate purse, sniffing deeply from time to time, blooming a pure and clear smile.

She looked around at no one, picked a begonia flower, looked at it carefully, the brilliant flowers reflected her fair little face, and a pair of charming dimples made her even more lovely. She quietly put the begonia flower branch into the wide sleeve, and the flower branch poked out of the cuffs, and the flower color stained the clothes.

"Do you want to keep spring? Or do you want to hide the spring color? The young man in white squatted in front of her at some point, and kept picking up the petals for her, but his eyes were staring at the girl without blinking, and he mistakenly picked up the leaves for petals.

"I'm picking up spring, what about you?" Looking at the fallen leaves in his hand, the girl said with a smile.

was asked by the girl, and Ji Xu was instantly restrained.

"Who are you?" The girl tilted her head and looked at him in surprise, her eyes meeting him, but she hurriedly lowered her head and blushed her cheeks.

Seeing the girl's shyness, Ji Xu came to his senses: "You don't recognize me, I can recognize you, I not only know your name, but also know why you are called this name." Isn't your name two good words, one is that it is naturally good without powder, and the other is that you can sing and dance well, so the good words overlap, right? ”

Liu Haohao is very famous in Chengdu, he has admired it for a long time, and has never had the opportunity to see it, at first glance this beautiful girl, his intuition told him that she is Liu Haohao.

The girl did not speak, but her head was lowered, and her face was redder, as gorgeous as the pink of the tree, and the beauty of this shy answer was three points better than that of the begonia flower.

"In Xia Jixu, it's really an honor to meet a good girl today." He stood up.

"You're Kio?" Liu looked at Ji Xu in surprise, "No! I have sung many of his words, and my favorite is "Bead Curtain," she sang casually, "engrave the heart between each eyebrow, and think about the ...... between the paintings."

In just two sentences, Ji Xu was shocked, and her voice was like heaven.

Ji Xu asked her to continue singing, but Liu Hao didn't answer Ji Xu's words at all, but asked vigorously: "Are you really Ji Xu?" Is Ji Xu like you? In her imagination, anyone who is knowledgeable and talented should be an elderly person, but is this young man in front of her really a famous genius Ji Xu?

"Oh, then according to the girl's opinion, what kind of person should Ji Xu be?" He forced a laugh and asked as if he was serious.

"I think he should have a goatee, his hair is almost white, oh, the beard should be white, in short, he looks like a fairy, not like you!"

She looked so cute when she thought about the problem, her long eyelashes fluttered, and her big black and shiny eyes were dripping and rolling, as if they were about to overflow.

"Oh, I see, isn't that what it looks like?" Ji Xu cocked the thumb and little finger of his right hand, propped it under his chin, and then deliberately coughed a few more times.

"But at least it can't be as small as you," she laughed loudly, revealing her smooth teeth, and a pair of dimples that can get drunk to death, her smile was so innocent, it made his heart feel like being blown by the spring breeze, warm and crispy, "How old are you this year?" Ryu asked thoughtfully.

"What about you?" Ji Xu asked her rhetorically first.

Hao innocently said: "I am thirteen years old this year." ”

"Xiaosheng is nineteen years old this year."

[4] "Two Farewell Songs. One of them, Du Mu. poem

More than thirteen of them,

Cardamom shoots in early February;

Spring Breeze Ten Mile Yangzhou Road,

It's better to roll up a beaded curtain.

Maybe they both had their own ideas, so they stayed there for a long time and didn't speak.

She looked at him, and quickly lowered her head shyly, but always wanted to look up at him; He looked at her, looked at each other, and then looked away in a panic, pretending not to care. The petals under their feet had been picked up, but no one wanted to leave, so they had to take a branch and scratch it on the ground.

After a while, a seven-character poem appeared in front of Ji Xu's feet, and Ji Xu said, "How do you see my poem?" ”

He got up and walked up to him, looked down at it, and his face immediately turned red.

Ji Xu leaned against her side and looked at his expression, "Good girl, you read it to me." ”

Liu corrected and said, "What a good girl, my surname is Liu." ”

Ji Xu corrected: "Oh, Miss Liu, can you read this poem to Xiaosheng?" ”

Liu said shyly, "Don't you know how to read it yourself?" ”

Ji Xu teased her further: "I see if you can read or write!" ”

Liu glanced at him well, and had to read it: "More than thirteen years of grace, cardamom tips in early February; The spring breeze is ten miles of Yizhou Road, and it is better to roll up the bead curtain. ”

said delicately: "Ten miles of spring breeze is not as good!" Is this what is written about me? ”

"That's right!"

"Am I that good?"

"Of course"!

smiled beautifully: "Then you go back and write it on paper and give it to me!" ”

"Okay!"

"Alas! Don't forget, write a gift. Liu Hao Hao further emphasized.

"Okay! However," Ji Xu also talked about the conditions, "Okay...... Miss Liu, you have to dance for me! I heard that your dance is a must, and Xiaosheng has never had the opportunity to see it. ”

She shyly responded, "Okay! After that, he danced like a cheerful bird.

[5] "Ten Miles of Spring Breeze" doubled. Lyrics and songs: Li Yuchun. song

[Song] "I'm inside Yizhou Road, thinking of you; You are on the mountain in the distance, and the spring breeze is ten miles. Today's wind blows to you, and it rains; I said that all the wine is not as good as yours.

In the twilight of the drum tower, I sing for you the fragrance of flowers; Elsewhere, silence meets and expects; Birds fly over the busy city and do not leave thousands of miles away.

Rub all the spring into that twilight; Turned all the words that couldn't stop into a secret and closed the door.

Inexplicable feelings! Excuse me, who will take it with them? I had to turn the years into songs and stay in the rivers and mountains.

I'm in Yizhou Road, thinking of you; You are on the mountain in the distance, and the spring breeze is ten miles. Today the wind blows to you again, and it rains; I say that all wine is inferior to you; I said that all the wine is not as good as yours. ”

Liu Haohao danced the most popular "Hu Xuan Dance" at that time, which was lively and full of exotic customs.

Ji Xu was drunk, and the begonia tree was also drunk, and they swayed a lot of pink......
