One Piece of Song Dynasty

Chapter 555 Queen Mother Wei and Wan Yanchang (Part )

"Xiuzhou Honghao" Zhao Gou was thinking deeply, when Empress Dowager Meng suddenly woke up and slapped her thigh: "I remember, during the Xuanhe period, Xiuzhou was flooded. In order to save the hungry people, Hong Hao sacrificed his life to cut off the rice from eastern Zhejiang and distribute it to the hungry people. People in the continent call him Hong Fozi."

"Yes, yes, last year Xiuzhou mutiny, no one was spared. I heard that the rebels did not commit any crime against Hong Hao's family." Zhao Gou also remembered. Empress Dowager Meng said: "This is a good official who loves the people like a son. I want to meet this Hong Buddha son. Where is Hong Hao?"

Gillian replied: "Just outside the door."

"Then please come in quickly," Empress Dowager Meng urged repeatedly.

When Gillian saw that Lan Gui was going to visit Hong Hao, she quickly stopped her and said, "Hong Hao is mourning his father. Let's change his clothes first and see him again."

Lan Gui nodded and went out. Zhao Gou gave a rare smile: "Gillian has done a good job in recommending me today and deserves a reward."

"The humble minister Hong Hao comes to see the Queen Mother, Your Majesty, and Madam. I would like to serve as the envoy of the Great Jintong." Hong Hao came in wearing the regular clothes he had just changed and bowed down.

Everyone nodded in agreement when they saw that he had a thick frame but was skinny and skinny, with a beard that penetrated all the flesh. He looked like a tough guy at first glance. Zhao Gou hurriedly called him up and said: "The Prime Minister Huiyou Pavilion is waiting to be established. I pretend to be the Minister of Rites and ask the Northern Dynasties. Before leaving, Mr. Hong has anything else to say to me."

Hong Hao asked: "Why is Your Majesty traveling in Jiankang? Jiankang is close to the Yangtze River, just like Tokyo is close to the Yellow River. Now that the internal troubles are not over, and the external enemies are raging, if the Jin soldiers took advantage of the opportunity to cross the river and besiege the city, wouldn't Jiankang be another Bianjing?"

Zhao Gou replied: "Many courtiers also have this opinion, and some suggest that we move to Ezhou or Tanzhou. The idea of ​​moving to Tanzhou is purely to avoid war and is not worth arguing; if we move to Ezhou, it will be difficult to continue with the money. As soon as the holy driver moves, the bandits in the north of the Yangtze River will definitely spy on Wu and Yue. Lu Yihao said, the southeast is the foundation of today. I settled in Jiankang because I believe that Jiankang is not as good as Tokyo, and the southeast can be fought."

Hong Hao asked again: "Your Majesty thinks that the southeast can be fought."

"The reason why the Jin army was rampant in the Central Plains was because it relied on cavalry. In the watery country of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, cavalry is not allowed to gallop, which is conducive to our infantry fighting." Zhao Gou answered confidently.

Hong Hao nodded: "It is true to the holy teachings. Your Majesty is stationed in Jiankang, and people's hearts are stable. However, autumn is coming, and your Majesty should make preparations in advance."

Wu Shaofen felt that Hong Hao was tough and rational, so she couldn't help but agree with Zhao Gou. Empress Dowager Meng had already handed Hong Hao a glass of wine: "Hong Hao is strong and strong. Drinking this glass of wine will make you strong."

Hong Hao gratefully drank it all in one gulp: "I would like to thank the Empress Dowager for the wine. In anticipation of autumn, Your Majesty should make early plans. I would like to bid farewell to the Empress Dowager, Your Majesty and the Empress."

"When you see my parents, I will report the health and diet of my father and mother in detail. Tell the emperor that I will welcome my parents back to the court as soon as possible." Zhao Gou said.

Empress Dowager Wei fell ill in Hanzhou. The purpose of Wan Yanchang sending Empress Dowager Wei to Hanzhou was to avoid the slave life of Huanyiyuan and Emperors Hui and Qin in Beijing. However, there was a lack of medical treatment and poor natural conditions. , coupled with the self-sufficient semi-savage life, finally made Queen Mother Wei unable to fall ill. When she was dying, the only belief in her heart was that she would not settle down until she saw Jiu'er. This thought kept her breathing.

Song Huizong thought about the appearance of Queen Mother Wei, and finally secretly asked the guard Jin Bing to report to Wan Yanchang. When Wan Yanchang miraculously came from afar on horseback the next day, Empress Dowager Wei thought that there was an hallucination in front of her eyes. A glimmer of light suddenly appeared in her eyes, but tears flowed down quietly and disobediently.

When Wan Yanchang saw the scrawny Queen Mother Wei, he couldn't help but be shocked. Even though he had seen too much hunger and death, he never thought that Queen Mother Wei would be so thin that she lost her appearance. He couldn't help but be shocked: "How come Mr. sick"

"Who is still sick? Is it because of mediation?" Queen Mother Wei was surprised.

Wan Yanchang lowered his head: "The good office said that he is waiting for Mr. to go to Yanjing to see him for the last time."

"Why is the child so sick?" Queen Mother Wei looked at him worriedly, and then turned to everyone in confusion. Huizong looked embarrassed, but Queen Xing was angry and embarrassed. Everyone else shook their heads angrily, hoping that Queen Mother Wei would reject Wan Yanchang. Queen Mother Wei looked back thoughtfully and sat up with difficulty, "Okay, I'll go."

"If you are so sick and have a bumpy journey, you won't be afraid of dying on the road." Huizong stopped him, feeling more jealous than caring.

"It's good to die. Once you die, everything will be over." Empress Dowager Wei stepped down from the Kang and smiled, "The Prince Odai once formally bowed to me as a disciple. I have never taught him. This is the last time. I can't let him down again."

"Empress Dowager Wei bent down to find shoes with difficulty. This gesture moved Wanyanchang deeply. Empress Xing couldn't see it, picked up the boots and gave them to Empress Dowager Wei to wear. While putting them on, she couldn't help but sob: "As the saying goes, the general of a man When a bird is about to die, its cries are mournful, so it would be a good idea for the Queen Mother to go and see it. "

Everyone watched with conflicting emotions as Queen Xing changed Queen Mother Wei's clothes. Queen Mother Wei stood up with the help of two maids and looked at Wan Yanchang: "Okay, I can do it."

Wan Yanchang hurriedly reached out and lifted the cotton curtain for her. Queen Mother Wei looked back at everyone and walked out the door with the help of the palace maid. Queen Xing and everyone saluted sadly: "The Queen Mother doesn't know when we will see each other again after this farewell."

Queen Mother Wei stopped at the door and turned around reluctantly. Wan Yanchang turned back and stared at Queen Xing: "You might as well go and be a companion to the Queen Mother."

Wan Yanchang's soldiers couldn't help but come to arrest Concubine Xing. Huizong hurriedly pushed away the soldiers and said helplessly: "Go, you can go too."

After traveling day and night by carriage from Hanzhou for six days, the group finally arrived at Wan Yanchang's luxurious and spacious mansion in Yanjing.

When Wan Yanchang carried Empress Dowager Wei into the smoke-filled room of Odai, the first thing Empress Dowager Wei saw was the shaman who was performing the Great God Dance around the kang. Empress Dowager Wei didn't know where she got the strength to throw away Wan Yanchang and walked straight over to pick up Odai.

Odai's face was pale and he was dying. He reluctantly opened his eyes, smiled with difficulty, moved his burst lips, and said, "Sir is here."

Queen Mother Wei turned around and pushed away the wizards, telling them to stop. Then she ordered Wan Yanchang to quickly call for the imperial doctor of the Song Dynasty who was among the captives. The wizard stopped dancing, yawned and woke up from his trance. He was horrified to find that Queen Mother Wei was testing her body temperature with her forehead against Otai's forehead.

While the imperial doctors of the Song Dynasty provided medical treatment, they also diagnosed and treated Empress Dowager Wei day and night. Queen Xing had nothing to do, just strolling in the courtyard.

Queen Xing was hesitating in the courtyard when she suddenly saw Yu Wenxuzhong coming out of a door and saluting her: "Your Majesty, Yu Wenxuzhong, sends my regards to the Queen."

"Xianggong Yuwen has also become a high-ranking official of the Jin Kingdom." Queen Xing teased angrily when she saw that he was dressed as a Jin official. Yu Wenxu lowered his head in embarrassment and whispered: "I think I am worthy of Your Majesty."
