The doors and windows of the Haidong Pavilion are now closed, and there is no light coming out, only a faint sound coming out - there is nothing unusual about this performance, lighting is a "luxury" object in this era. For a rich man like Wu Haogu, lighting the lamp is not a problem, but for ordinary people, the bright lights are a lot of expenses, and the guests who enter the Haidong Pavilion to have fun are not high-grade rich people, how can they be willing to spend dozens of dollars to light a lamp?

However, probably no one would have thought that the lobby of the Haidong Pavilion tonight was brightly lit, but the windows and broken places were covered with black cloths, and no light could be seen out.

The room was full of people, squatting or sitting, and everyone looked excited. Hardly anyone was talking, just waiting there in silence.

From time to time, a man in a robe stood on the stairs leading from the lobby to the second floor, holding a piece of paper full of names to name people. The people who called immediately happily agreed, and then, under the envious eyes of everyone, they went upstairs to enjoy what little life they had left......

Nearly three hundred people waited quietly for their names to be called, and then went upstairs happily, and after a quarter of an hour at most, they came down from the stairs with a comfortable face.

The tempting smell of boiled meat, which came from nowhere, made the waiting people even more excited, and almost everyone inhaled with their mouths wide open, as if they wanted to take in the smell of the whole thing.

There was meat, there was wine, there were women...... The legendary Elysium is nothing more than that, isn't it? After suffering all my life, now I have finally enjoyed it when I am dying, and I have no regrets when I die!

People who die without regrets are naturally dead!

It's the Bohai Dead!

There is no need to doubt their will to die, because they are already living in hell, and they are not afraid of life, are they still afraid of death?

And people like them who live in hell don't know how many there are in the Great Liao Kingdom under the rule of the Khitans!

Later generations of people who studied this period of history often liked to pick on the various wrongs of the Song Dynasty, but intentionally or unintentionally ignored the Liao State, which was ruled by ethnic minorities, was actually a hellish end times.

The vast majority of the Bohai people, Jurchens, divination and Han people live in hell.

And when millions of people in hell are fighting in despair, the Liao Kingdom in the last days and the Great Song Dynasty in comfort and prosperity are all vulnerable!

Suffering is also combat effectiveness!

……

On the second floor of the Haidong Pavilion, there was no shadow of a woman in a private room that was originally considered a very high-grade one, and the leader of the Bohai anti-thieves, known as the "Bright King", was sitting behind a bookcase, and had just finished writing a letter to whom he didn't know, holding it in his hand, as if he was carefully considering.

Across from him sat a young man dressed as Han Chinese—in fact, the Han and Bohai people in Xijin Province were dressed similarly, but with different hairstyles. Instead of braiding his hair, the young man combed his hair into a bun and threaded it with a hosta.

"Guangmingjun rest assured, I am now the attaché sent by Zhongjing Dao to accompany the Song envoy, and I can enter and leave the Yongping Pavilion freely."

The young man who spoke was surnamed Gao, his name was Yongchang, although he was dressed as a Han Chinese, but he was a Bohai person, and he was a descendant of the Bohai right surname Gao.

This time, he was sent by the Zhongjing Left-behind Division to Xijin Mansion to coordinate the reception of the Song envoy - after the Great Song Dynasty delegation left the jurisdiction of Nanjing Province and entered Zhongjing Province, the matter of receiving the companion would have to be taken care of by the Zhongjing Provincial Left-behind Division.

Therefore, this Gao Yongchang was sent by the Zhongjing Left-behind Division to coordinate with the officials of Xijin Mansion and Nanjing Dao, so he could naturally enter and leave Yongping Pavilion.

"That's good!" Guangmingjun looked at Gao Yongchang with burning eyes and said, "This letter must be sent to the Song envoy or the deputy envoy...... And at the same time, you must not reveal your identity. ”

Gao Yongchang took the raft and received it in a white envelope without looking at its contents carefully.

"Guangmingjun, what do you want to do when you bring so many strong men into the city?" After receiving the letter, Gao Yongchang did not leave, but asked what the other party was doing with so many people into the city?

Guangmingjun opened his mouth in a deep voice, his voice was low and short, shaking Gao Yongchang's eardrums: "What are you doing?" Naturally, it is done to death! Otherwise, how could those people have opened up the opportunity to eat wine and meat and play with women? It's been 173 years! We finally waited for the weakening of the Khitans, and also waited for the end of the Great Liao. However, the people who have the opportunity to replace Da Liao are not only our Bohai people, but also our female straight people of the same clan, as well as the divination people on the grassland, and the Han people here in Yanyun...... The divination people have long been exposed, and the daughter Zhiren has also gotten rid of the tyranny of the Khitans, and as far as I know, there are also people from the Han people here in Yanyun who are secretly contacting the Song Dynasty! And our Bohai slaves suffered the most from the Khitan dog thieves, shouldn't we seize this opportunity to rise up? ”

He waved his hand violently: "We Bohai slaves have suffered too much, and our strength is not as strong as that of the Han people, female straight people, and divination blockers. All that can be done is not to be afraid of death. Bohai people are not afraid of death, which is the biggest capital in our hands...... Only when the Song people see that we Bohai people are not afraid of death, will they support us and join forces with us to deal with the Khitans!

Now that the Bohai Nu in Longyan Tieshan has risen, it will not take two or three days for the Han army stationed in Xijin Mansion to leave. When the time comes, it will be time for us to rise up in Xijin Mansion. ”

Guangming Jun's letter was put on the case of the Great Song Dynasty's envoy Liao Zheng Jian Xuchen.

"Who are these Sword Kings and Bright Monarchs?"

After reading the letter, Jian Xuchen invited the deputy envoy Li Zhong to the room where he lived and gave the letter to the other party.

"It is said that he is a figure of the great family of the late Bohai royal family, who does not forget his homeland and wants to restore his foundation."

Li Zhong had heard of them, "But no one knows the real names of the two, so the Liao people usually call them the Great Sword and the Great Light." ”

Of course, "sword" and "light" can't be the names of the big clansmen. Now the head of the Da clan is called Dagong Ding, who is from the public generation, and his son is from the Changzi generation. In other words, most of the Great Sword and the Great Light are also people of these two generations.

"Is the power of the Great Clan strong?"

"It's not very powerful," Li Zhong said, "the Bohai people are known as Bohai slaves in Daliao, and even after the royal family of the Great Clan, they can't be reused." Now the patriarch of the Da clan has been in the office for more than 20 years, and he has only won a Dali temple. ”

"Dali Siqing is not small." Jian Xuchen said.

"It's not of much use," Li Zhong said, "The Liao State is different from our dynasty, it has always emphasized literature over military force, and it also emphasizes the north over the south. Dali Siqing is a civil official in the south, and he doesn't have much real power at all. In addition, the royal family of the big clan was slaughtered by the Khitans several times, and the rest were sent to various places for resettlement, and the strength was not strong, and it was not even comparable to the six right surnames of Bohai.

However, the royal family of the Great Clan not only had people in Liao, but also some of them were exiled to Goryeo. It is said that when the Bohai Sea was destroyed, his son Da Guangxian defected to Goryeo with tens of thousands of people, and was also given the surname of the king by King Jian, the Taizu of Goryeo.

It is also possible that the Great Sword and the Great Light are descendants of the Balhae royal family from the Goryeo Kingdom. ”

Li Zhong was right-hearted, obviously asking Ma Zhi or Tong Guan for advice.

"Shall we send someone to them, then?" Jian Xuchen asked with a smile.

"Let's go," said Li Zhong, "and it is indispensable to see each other, maybe it will be beneficial." ”

This answer hit Jian Xuchen's heart, so he smiled and said, "That's fine, but do you have a way to leave the embassy and go to Beishifang?" ”

This is indeed a trouble, because Yongpingfang is not in the downtown of Xijin Fucheng, and Xijin Fucheng is divided into more than 20 squares, to go from Yongpingguan to Beishifang, you need to enter and exit two gates (fangmen), without the consent of the Liao, the Song envoy can not pass at all.

However, Li Zhong did not bother with this question for too long, because Ma Zhi brought Wu Haogu's message that afternoon. At the same time, he also sent an opportunity to go from Yongping Hall to Beishifang - Wu Haogu made an appointment with the members of the mission to meet at the Hanjia Fengle Building in Beishifang.

……

"What's the hell? The Bohai Nu Uprising in Longyan Iron Mountain? ”

"Yes, the news I just got made a big fuss, and even Huailai County was in a hurry."

Wu Haogu heard the news of the uprising in Longyan Iron Mountain in an inn in Beishifang. He entered the city the evening before yesterday, did not go to Ma's house, but went to a big inn called "Sifangju" in Beishifang, and rented the best two upper rooms, he and Ximen Qing lived in one, Zhong Geer and Lin Chong lived in one, and Zhang Zeduan stayed in Huayan Temple to look at the murals.

Ma Zhi only came to Sifangju at dinner, and when Sifangju was having dinner with Wu Haogu and Zhong Ge'er, he told Wu Haogu the news he heard from his uncle Ma Renwang.

"Huailai is in a hurry?" Brother Zhong snorted and said with a smile, "Now many people can make meritorious contributions!" Ryoji, aren't you going? ”

Ma Zhi shook his head, "If I'm going, I'll be on my way here." ”

"Already on the way?" Wu Haogu asked, "How many soldiers have been out?" ”

"The eight battalions of guards are gone!" Ma Zhi said, "The Qingping Army in Khan Prefecture reported that there were tens of thousands of anti-thieves...... That's a lot of work, and it's a lot of slaves. If he hadn't bought the county order, he would have gone and fished for it now. ”

Grab a handful? Sounds like an easy one!

Probably seeing Wu Haogu's doubts, Zhong Ge'er explained with a smile: "Among the Bohai slaves of Longyan, there are only a few thousand who can fight, and the so-called tens of thousands should include the old and weak women and children. ”

"It's all gone, will the Xijin Mansion be empty?" Wu Haogu always felt a little uneasy - this is the legendary peasant, no, it should be an armed uprising of workers!

"Emptiness?" Ma Zhi smiled, "It depends on who revolts, if the Yan family wants to revolt, of course Yanjing City is empty." But if the Bohai Nu in the city wants to rebel...... Hmph, that's to give away people's heads, send credit! ”
