In the palace of King Yan.

At this moment, the lights are being put up, the red clothes are paving, and there is a joyful and festive image.

After learning that three days later it would be the wedding day of King Yan and the eldest princess, and the whole palace was busy.

However, in the study, Murong Fu did not put much thought into this wedding banquet, but discussed with Huo Qianjun and Wei Liangcheng how to resist the Liao army after receiving the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty. 𝕄.𝓥𝕆𝙙🆃𝙒.𝘾𝙤𝓜

With the two identities of King Yan and the concubine as a cover, Murong Fu naturally couldn't let the Great Song Dynasty be destroyed by the Great Liao, and even helped the Great Song Dynasty to repel the Liao State, which had always been Murong Fu's plan.

After all, what he wants to do is to revive the Great Yan, not to revive the Great Song Dynasty under the banner of King Yan after the Great Song Dynasty was destroyed.

"Now there are more than 600,000 soldiers and horses in the Liao army, and the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty are only less than 400,000, it is completely because the Liao army is not good at water warfare, so they can barely resist, and the Great Song Dynasty has not had a good general and handsome talent for decades, which leads to more old and weak people in the military camp, if you really fight with the Liao army, I am afraid that the combat strength is less than 300,000."

Huo Qianjun analyzed the situation.

Murong Fu said: "The Great Song Dynasty has been weak for a long time, it is not surprising that there is such a defeat, otherwise there are thousands of Han people, and there will be no need for us!" ”

Wei Liangcheng said: "According to the news from the Shadow Building, Emperor Tianzuo has given up fighting against the righteous army and intends to use all his forces to attack the Song Dynasty. ”

Murong Fu bowed his head slightly and said: "I also have this intention, but it is a pity to give up like this, I have asked Fan Shi and the second brother of Gongye to negotiate with the Jurchen tribe on behalf of the righteous army, and exchange Liaodong and other places for the resources of their tribe." ”

Huo Qianjun and Wei Liangcheng both had a look of surprise in their eyes, they didn't expect the lord to be so decisive, and they had already thought of a way out.

Wei Liangcheng asked, "Then the next stronghold of the righteous army is ......?"

"Dragon City!"

Murong Fu said in a firm tone: "It's time to return the old man's wish!" ”

When the two of them heard this, their expressions gradually became solemn.

As the capital of Sanyan State, Longcheng is naturally a battleground for the Murong family, and Longcheng is located in the area of Dading Mansion in Zhongjing, which can also play a certain deterrent role in the Liao army.

"Yanmen Pass has just been captured by the Liao army, if you capture Longcheng in a short time, I am afraid that it will be attacked by the two armies, and it will be difficult!"

Huo Qianjun said the worry in his heart, after all, since the loss of Liaoyang Mansion in Tokyo, the other three escort capitals have also sent additional troops and horses, if the righteous army captures Longcheng, I am afraid that the Liao army defenders of Zhongjing Dading Mansion and Yanmen Pass will jointly attack.

Murong Fu said: "This matter is simple, although the soldiers and horses of the righteous army are weak now, aren't there still Jurchen tribes?" ”

"The Jurchen people have been oppressed by the Khitans for a long time, this time they can use their strength to help us capture Dragon City, the Jurchen people are brave and good at fighting, and they are extremely fierce, if they use Liaoyang Mansion as a bargaining chip, they will definitely agree."

The Jurchens should be the only ones who can compete with the Liao cavalry on horseback, and Murong Fu intends to give up his territory and let the rebels and the Jurchens fight together, not simply to borrow their strength.

It is also to familiarize the rebels with the Jurchen combat methods, so that they can have a way to restrain this Fan tribe, which is more fierce than the Khitans, in the future.

At least for two hundred years, before the rise of the Mongols, the Jurchens were the most important enemy in Murong Fu's eyes.

Just when the three of them were roughly discussing, the housekeeper called outside the door: "Lord Wang, Han Xiang asks to see!" ”

Murong saw that it was almost over, so he asked the two of them to go back to rest first, and he followed the housekeeper to the front hall.

I saw Han Zhongyan sitting at the bottom of the seat and drinking tea leisurely, and there was a foot-long brocade box on the tea table, I don't know what it was.

"Lord Wang!"

As soon as Han Zhongyan saw Murong Fu, he wanted to get up and salute.

Murong Fu patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't be polite, just say something if you have something!" ”

The butler took the servants and retreated.

Han Zhongyan said: "Before the big joy, I shouldn't have disturbed the prince, but the eldest princess told me to bring this thing to the prince, and please forgive the prince!" ”

Hearing that it was related to the eldest princess, Murong Fu couldn't say anything, so he asked him to bring the brocade box.

Han Zhongyan handed it over respectfully.

Murong Fu opened the brocade box and saw that there was a white jade inlaid with gold, a beautiful belt of wealth and glory, and another letter.

Open the envelope, on the fine Yuan book paper, the handwriting is beautiful and soft, two lines of small characters.

"Life and death are broad, and Zicheng said; Hold the hand of the son, and grow old with the son. ”

Murong Fu silently put the letter back into the envelope and closed it into the brocade box along with the belt.

"Does she have anything else to say?"

Han Zhongyan said: "Never. ”

Murong Fu waved his hand, and Han Zhongyan said goodbye with interest.

The time soon came to the wedding day of Murong Fu and the princess.

Unlike in Western Xia, Murong Fu did not have a mansion, and the wedding was held in the imperial palace.

This time, the wedding of Murong Fu and the eldest princess was held in the palace of King Yan.

The Song Dynasty attaches the most importance to etiquette, and she is married to the eldest princess, so the red tape involved is naturally even more complicated.

Therefore, just the two steps of receiving relatives and visiting the church to get married, it took almost a whole day to almost complete.

After worshipping heaven and earth, Murong Fu had to stay and accompany the guests who came to the wedding banquet.

Fortunately, he drank a lot of wine, otherwise he would have been poured down by a group of good people who made friends.

However, because it was a princess's wedding, naturally there was no such thing as a cave room, and after Murong Fu left Huo Qianjun and Wei Liangcheng to entertain everyone, he got out smoothly.

Seeing that the new house was in front of her, an old lady saw this and hurriedly walked over and said, "Lord Wang, please burn incense and bathe before entering the cave room!" ”

Murong Fu smelled the wine on his body, but he didn't say anything, and under the service of a group of palace maids, he comfortably washed away the wine on his body.

I don't know if it's because the room is too hot, or because of the steaming mist, those young palace maids have red cheeks one by one, as if they are drunk, and when they even bathe and change clothes for Murong Fu, their bodies are fluttering, and their movements are jerky and slowed down a lot.

When Murong Fu changed into a red robe and left, he could still hear the whispers of those palace maids in the bath.

With red lights shining all the way, Murong Fu finally arrived outside the new house with bright candles.

Calm down, he pushed the door in, and a refreshing fragrance followed, coupled with the red veil in the room, and the flickering candles, which couldn't help but make people feel charming.

On the edge of the bed, the eldest princess with a phoenix crown and a new green dress is lined with rich and luxurious clothes under a piece of jewelry.

Coupled with her innate nobility, just sitting there is already as beautiful as a picture.

Listening to the sound of the door being pushed open, the pair of jade hands holding the face covering but fanning couldn't help but tighten, a little nervous.
