Reborn Yue Feizhi returns my rivers and mountains

Yue Fei said to his father's cold body that he would rest all night, and it was not until dawn that he fell asleep beside the coffin bed.

When the sky became bright, Li Wa got up and saw her husband lying beside the funeral bed, so she took a blanket and gently covered Yue Fei.Yue Fei felt that there was someone around him, so he rubbed his eyes and stood up.He glanced at his wife gratefully and went to wash up.

The cold water splashed on his face, and Yue Fei's dizzy mind immediately sobered up a lot. He recalled what he had said to his father in front of the funeral bed last night, and felt that his heart was completely empty, so he cheered up and began to arrange his father's funeral arrangements.

Three days after the funeral, Yue Fei arranged the coffin with the help of Wang Ming and others, and parked the coffin in the village. He also invited monks to do the ashram for 49 and [-] days, and then buried Yue He in the ancestral tomb.

When the funeral was about to take place, Yue Fei wrote the resignation letter and left for Xiangzhou.It turns out that according to the Dingyou system of the Song Dynasty, anyone with an official rank must observe mourning for their parents for three years after their death.It is recorded in the book "Rituals: Mourning Clothes": "The son is the parent, the wife is the husband, the minister is the king, and he has to serve in mourning for three years." And according to the provisions of the "Rituals": If an official learns that his father or mother has died, , he must resign immediately and go back to mourn.In addition, people in mourning cannot live at home. They need to build a temporary residence next to the tomb. During this period, they are not allowed to engage in any entertainment activities or simple meals.In addition, mourners can farm within one-third of an acre next to the grave, so that they can be self-sufficient without paying taxes on food.After the three years of mourning ended, the land was called "private land", which is the origin of what is now known as "one-third of an acre".

When Yue Fei came to Liu Guangshi's camp, he took off his mourning clothes and changed into green clothes and corner belt. Then he came to the front of the hall, where the flag officer introduced him to meet him.

Yue Fei came to Liu Guangshi, knelt down to salute, and presented the resignation document with both hands.After Liu Guangshi opened it and looked at it, he sighed and said: "Pengju, I have heard about your father and I know that you will come in the near future. Bandits are rampant everywhere now, and I want to use you to perform meritorious deeds, but I don't want your family to be in such a big disaster. It's really pity."

After hearing this, Yue Fei's eyes shed tears and he said: "Thank you for taking care of me for many years. Now that I have lost a loved one, it is really difficult for me to think about it. I hope that you will allow me to return to my hometown to observe my father's filial piety. When the term is over, I can come under your seat and obey your orders." .”

Liu Guangshi said: "As a son, it is etiquette to observe filial piety for your parents, and I am sure about it. You can go back and relax. If there is anything at home, you can come to me. When the number of thirty-nine is over, I will talk to you again. You can just arrange the location."

The number of thirty-nine he mentioned is actually 27 months. The so-called three years of mourning is not three years, but 27 months. That's why Liu Guangshi said this.

Yue Fei thanked Liu Guangshi and then stood up to leave.After leaving the camp gate, Yue Fei put on his mourning clothes again, rode his horse back to Yuejiazhuang, and then built a thatched shed next to Yue He's tomb to observe mourning here.

Yue Fei kept his filial piety at home, and Niu Gao and others felt that being in the army was boring, so they returned the thousands-man team they had trained to Liu Guangshi. The brothers also returned to Yue Fei's village to keep Yue Fei company every day.

At this point, Yue Fei lived in a thatched hut every day, and Li Wa arranged his own food. He usually only practiced martial arts with his brothers, and also taught Yue Yun in martial arts.

During Yue Fei's mourning period, the Song and Jin Dynasties entered a short honeymoon period due to the smooth delivery of the Yanyun land. The two countries were in peace and harmony. This also gave the Jin Kingdom time to gradually annex the Liao Kingdom and wipe out the remnants of Emperor Tianzuo.

When the Jin State conquered Yanjing and negotiated with the Song Dynasty, Jin State general Nianhan launched an army to attack Liao Pingzhou. Zhang Jue, the then defender of Pingzhou, saw that the Jin army was powerful and unstoppable, so he surrendered Pingzhou , surrendered to the Kingdom of Jin.Wanyan Aguda saw that he had made great contributions to the city, so he made Zhang Jue the military governor of Linhai and the magistrate of Pingzhou. He still commanded his troops and was stationed in Pingzhou.

During the negotiation process, Pingzhou was promoted to Nanjing of the Jin Kingdom, but Zhang Jue still stationed troops in Pingzhou and served as Pingzhou's remaining guard.However, everyone in the Jin Dynasty believed that this man had different ambitions, so Wanyan Aguda personally issued an edict to him: "The first county of Pingshan is now Nanjing, and the Jiedu envoy is now the left-behind. I am very kind. Maybe you have some evil intentions. Different pictures, why are they fanning each other during this farming season? It is a plan to avoid danger or to make it safe. I have my own intention." Zhang Jue was shocked after seeing it, so he temporarily calmed down.

Then the Jin Kingdom moved all the people of Yanjing away, hoping to leave only an empty city to the Song Dynasty. They dispersed in various places along the way, and the relocated people complained endlessly. So some people came to complain to Zhang Jue, saying that Kang Gongbi, the surrendered minister of the Liao Kingdom, Zuo Qigong and others were unable to defend Yanjing and the people were displaced. They asked Zhang Jue for help to save them from the pain of migration.

After hearing what the people said, Zhang Jue felt moved again, so he summoned his old troops to discuss the matter. His old troops unanimously said: "I heard that Tianzuo's army was resurrected and appeared in Monan. If the public is loyal to the king and is diligent, he will welcome Tianzuo in order to In Zhongxing, Zuo Qigong and others were first punished for their crimes of rebellion and surrender, and they were all returned to the Yan people to restore their property. Pingzhou was returned to the Song Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty accepted all of them, and Pingzhou became a vassal town. Later, the Jin people If we increase our troops and use Pingshan troops internally, and get reinforcements from Song Dynasty externally, why should we be afraid?"

After being persuaded by the generals and the fact that everyone in the Jin Kingdom had doubts about him, Zhang Jue changed his mind.So in May of the fifth year of Xuanhe, four old ministers of the Liao Kingdom, Zuo Qigong, Yu Zhongwen, Cao Yongyi, and Kang Gongbi, who were escorting the Yanjing people to migrate, were killed outside Pingzhou City. They occupied Pingzhou alone and restored the Liao Kingdom. Old system.He hung the portrait of Emperor Tian Zuo in the hall, called the villagers and said, "The Jurchens are our enemies, how can we follow them?" He pointed to the portrait and said, "This is not your lord, how can you carry it? We have made an appointment. If you die, you must return to China as a last resort." The people echoed in unison.

Then Zhang Jue sent people secretly to see Yanjing. He met with the then Qingyuan Army Jiedu Envoy, Hebei Hedong Yanshanfu Road Xuanfu Envoy, and Zhiyanshan Prefecture Wang Anzhong, and said: "Pingzhou has been a place of beautiful shape since ancient times, and there are countless places there. Hundreds of miles, with more than [-] armors, Zhang Jue is a versatile civil and military talent. If he is used by the Song Dynasty, he will definitely become an important minister of the barrier and auxiliary country. If not, Zhang Jue welcomes Emperor Tianzuo to the west and accepts Xiao Qian from the north, and he becomes the Song Dynasty. His elbows and armpits are in trouble." Wang Anzhong was convinced, so he sent someone to Bianjing to meet Emperor Huizong.

Emperor Huizong has always been obsessed with the three states of Ying, Ping, and Luan. Zhao Liangsi was rejected by Wanyan Aguda during the negotiation, and now he suddenly came to his door. How could he not be happy and victorious?But he also knew that with the national power of the Song Dynasty at this time, he did not dare to confront the Jin State head-on, so he wrote a letter to Wang Anzhong's subordinate Zhan Du: "This dynasty has good relations with the Jin State and has a very serious oath. How can we be the first to violate it? The Jin people yesterday Therefore, instead of attacking those who are awakened immediately, we should put troops in the pass to fight against Yuguan. Now that we have gone east, and when we come west tomorrow, we may not be able to take the few cities easily. For the current plan, we should keep secrets. It's enough to show the restraint." So Zhan Du followed Emperor Huizong's instructions and secretly contacted Zhang Jue to win over him.

When Wanyan Agu heard that Zhang Jue had rebelled against Jin and returned to Liao, he was furious and ordered his half-brother Wanyan to lead three thousand cavalry from Jinzhou to conquer the Pingzhou rebellion. At the same time, he ordered the Pingzhou officials: "I When he first settled in Yanjing, the officials and people of Jiaer took the lead in surrendering. Therefore, he was promoted to the government of Nanjing. He reduced the corvee service and reduced the taxes. The kindness was great, so why bother to rebel. Now that we want to attack, the time is Nongyue, and we can't bear to use a wicked person. And it will harm the common people. Moreover, the Liao Kingdom is my own, and I can defend myself alone. What do I want to do in the end? I will stop doing evil now, and I will release the rest."
