Liaoyang Mansion is one of the five capitals of the Liao Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty Liao attacked the Liao system, is still one of the five capitals of Tokyo, to the post roads of all over the country extend in all directions, less than a thousand miles away from Shangjing Huining, is the center of the Jin Kingdom in the eastern Liaodong region.

The Liaoyang area is rich in mineral resources, since the middle of the Warring States period, Yan has mined copper ore and iron ore here, and made agricultural tools, weapons, coinage, etc.; The Han Dynasty was further exploited, large-scale mining of iron ore and iron smelting; In the Liao Dynasty, the development of mineral resources reached its peak, and it also became an important metal smelting place for gold. Due to the vertical and horizontal rivers, fertile land, and developed agriculture, Liaoyang area is an important grain producing area, providing large grain for the Jin country and becoming an important tax area of the state. The economy of Jinguo is deteriorating day by day, and the economic status of Liaoyang is needless to say.

After Pingzhou was recovered by the Song army, Liaoyang has become an important barrier in the south of the Jin State against the Song invasion, and it is also the only remaining companion capital in the five capitals, which is of great political and military significance, and is now captured by the Song army, which has plunged the Jin State into panic again, and another anxiety is that the emperor is depressed, becomes moody, and behaves strangely......

After Yan Kang ascended the throne, he advocated comprehensive sinicization, in fact, this is not only because he advocates Confucianism and Han etiquette, but also because in the early years of the Jin Dynasty, the court retained a relatively simple fashion, and the monarch and the minister did not pay much attention to etiquette, and the boundary between respect and inferiority was not very strict, which was very unfavorable to the emperor's absolute monarchy. He ordered the hundred officials to refine the ritual system and begin the reform in this area. Gradually, a large number of constructions were carried out in the temple, the shrine, the sacrifice, the honorific title, the law, the court visit, the car uniform, the guard and the official prohibition system, etc., and a thorough and detailed etiquette system was formulated, showing the supreme dignity of the emperor everywhere.

Of course, it wasn't all smooth sailing. After a conflict between conservative and reformist, the 'dissidents' were purged. With the assistance of Zonggan and Wushu, he lived his glorious and luxurious imperial life with peace of mind, but it also made him extremely dependent. In other words, they lack the ability to handle government affairs independently, and they are prone to listen to and believe partially. But first with his adoptive father, and then with his uncle Wushu to manage him, he can leave it alone in government and politics. It is said that at this time, the civil strife has subsided, there are people to worry about state affairs, and the small life of Yan Yan should be comfortable, but people are like this, there are no serious things, and there are more idle things. First of all, the half-built capital made him look troubled.

As early as the time of Kim Taejo, due to the busy war, the palace was not built. After Jin Taizong succeeded to the throne, the Jin regime was politically stable, militarily strong, and had great social and economic development, especially in the Huiningfu area of Jin Shangjing, where a large amount of wealth and many craftsmen gathered. The input of human, material, and financial resources has created conditions for the construction of the Huining Mansion in Jinshangjing. In the second year of the Tianhui, Lu Yanlun of the Han Dynasty was ordered to preside over the construction of the capital, imitating the style of the Tang Dynasty.

The first batch of completed palace building projects are mainly three groups of buildings: one is the building based on the court hall; the second is the dormitory; The third is the book hall. These three groups of palaces were built, which basically solved the problem of the emperor listening to the government and seeing the affairs of the emperor, the palace and the place where the emperor and queen lived in the palace and stored the books and scriptures. The main project of the second batch of projects is the Cool Temple. According to the calculation, the Liang Hall is another group of palace complexes built by the Imperial City of Shangjing, and its scale is no less than that of the Imperial Palace, but Wu Qimai returned to heaven before the start of construction.

So the rest of the rebuilding tasks were taken over by Wan Yan. But at this time, in addition to civil strife, the Jin country also entered an eventful season. Under the military and economic suppression of the Song Dynasty, the financial situation became increasingly difficult. The old Ben has eaten almost, naturally there is no 'spare money' to continue to build the palace, and the cool hall has become a half-pull project, Wan Yan can only look at the palace and pavilion on the drawings and sigh, and the mood is naturally not too good.

And another thing is the problem of heirs, Wan Yan Kang ascended the throne at the age of sixteen and became the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, but within seven years after ascending the throne and becoming the emperor, Wan Yan Kang's queen and a large group of concubines actually failed to give birth to a son and a half daughter for Wan Yan Kang, which is a great shame for him. Even for this reason, Wan Yan Yan was angry with Wan Yan Xiyin, causing Xi Yin to lose his head very wrongly.

But now, Wan Yan can finally raise his head and be a man, because he finally has a son of his own, and this son is born to his wife, Queen Pei Man, and he is an out-and-out royal eldest son. Less than five days after the birth of his son, Wan Yan couldn't wait to name this precious son Wan Yan Ji'an, and a month later, he canonized Ji An as the crown prince of the Jin State, that is, the successor of the fourth generation of the Jin State.

Originally, this should be a great joy for Wan Yan Kang, but God seems to be deliberately trying to get along with Wan Yan Kang, just last November when Wushu was still on an expedition to Goryeo, the crown prince Ji An, who was less than a year old, suddenly died of illness, which was a heavy blow to Wan Yan Kang, who was still immersed in joy. The army that crusaded against Goryeo was almost completely wiped out, and Wushu pushed the responsibility for defeat on him, and under the double blow, the heroic and ambitious young man who first ascended to the throne changed his personality greatly, and was replaced by a melancholy emperor who often drank and made trouble, and was self-serving......

For the sudden change in the emperor's personality, Wushu was very sad and helpless, and the loss of Liaoyang also made him have to refocus his energy on the current crisis, put down the 'butcher's knife' that had just been raised to purge internal affairs, and rethink the direction of the Jin State after the defeat, and the positioning of the relationship between the re-emerging Southern Dynasties. But all this will not be implemented until after the Liaodong crisis, so the top priority is to recover Liaoyang.

There is a rule in history that the old does not go and the new does not come. has just experienced a major defeat, the soldiers and generals have suffered heavy losses, and the only few veterans have also withered on the battlefield of Goryeo, but there are capable people in the country. The fierce generals in the second generation of generals of the Jin Kingdom began to officially appear and walked to the front desk, this person's name is Wan Yan Yanying, after the big Jin Jiangmen, the son of the famous general Wan Yan Yin Shuke.

At that time, Wanyan Lou Room and Wanyan Yinshu were known as the two heroes, and the sons of the two were also active on the battlefield, but at that time, the most eye-catching was the son of Lou Room, who made countless meritorious contributions at a young age, and was considered to be the successor of the two heroes.

Wanyan Yanying is the same age as the living girl, but the most attractive thing about him is his peculiar appearance, with two horns on his head, so that even Ah Guda became interested in this strange-looking young general. He went to the battlefield with his father at the age of sixteen, and participated in the battles of the Liao and Song Dynasty, but he lacked the luck of a living girl, although he killed a lot of enemies, but there were no famous generals among them, just some nobodies, so it was difficult for him to emerge in the early years of the Jin Kingdom, which was full of famous generals.

In the past, because Wanyan Yanying's uncle Ba Lisu and his father were captured in the battle with Song, Wushu has always taken him with him, so that he can learn how to march and fight with himself; Second, for the purpose of protecting him, he left a root for their family. During the battle against Goryeo, Wushu left him in the country, and the original purpose was to lead his troops into Goryeo to reinforce when the war was not going well, but at the last moment due to the emperor's obstruction, he could not make the trip, but all the troops of Xindianji were transferred to Jinzhou to block the possible northern invasion of the Song army.

Now that the war in Goryeo is over, Zhao Er's appearance has proved that the so-called 'northern invasion' of the Song army is nothing more than a ruse by them to prevent the Jin State from reinforcing the Goryeo battlefield. Now that the Song army stationed in Goryeo has invaded Liaoyang, it must be counterattacked politically and economically, and the Wanyan Yanying Department stationed in Jinzhou has become the most recent and most effective force.

Now the emperor's mental state is not good, and the court has a great opinion on the Wushu force to use troops against Goryeo, which leads to failure, and it is obvious that it is not good for him to take command again and leave Beijing, so after careful consideration, Wushu decided to show his long-hidden blade, and appointed Wanyan Yanying as Marshal Zuo to lead the 50,000 troops under his command to expel the Song army and recapture Liaoyang. At the same time, the veteran Wanyan Tuhesu was the left supervising army, and another army was led from the Beijing Division to reinforce the ......

On the one hand, Wushu sent a large army to pose for a decisive battle with the Song army again, and on the other hand, after the Battle of Goryeo, as the number one god of war in the Jin Kingdom and the war maniac who had been trying to destroy the Song Dynasty, he also began to reflect.

Based on the internal reasons of the Jin State and the opponent of the Great Song Dynasty, Wushu deeply felt that with the current strength of the Jin State, not only could it no longer be like killing the Liao State and reproducing the glory of the Yellow River soldiers in the city, but also faced the dilemma of being constantly squeezed and eaten away by the Great Song Dynasty, and the tragedy of destroying the country would be repeated in his own country. And the Jin State itself urgently needs to get a chance to rest and recuperate, so as to stabilize the domestic situation and eliminate border troubles, if the elimination of the Song Dynasty is the highest military goal of the Jin State, it will be a bit self-deceptive.

Therefore, Wushu decided to adjust the military and political policy towards the Song Dynasty after the war, made major changes, gave up his father Aguta and the ideals and aspirations that he had worked hard for more than ten years to pursue the beautiful "unification of the world", and first submitted a request for peace negotiations to the Southern Song Dynasty, striving to reach a non-aggression peace agreement with the Song side in the greatest interests, and changing the situation of the Jin State becoming increasingly isolated and declining.

But Wushu is not stupid, he understands that he is facing many difficulties in sending an invitation to the Great Song Dynasty for peace talks at this time, and the first thing he needs to do is to pass the domestic pass, so that the seemingly powerful Dajin Kingdom will ask for peace with the Song Dynasty, and the old and young people in the court not only feel that they can't get over the face, but they may also be psychologically difficult to accept. On the other hand, even if the emperor approves it, everyone agrees, but now the initiative in the negotiation is no longer in his own hands, and it is no longer the final say of the Jin State whether to fight or make peace.

Now the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty under the leadership of Zhao Er has recovered and surpassed the peak since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the domestic politics are stable, and the foreign wars have been won repeatedly, and the humiliation caused by the Jin State to the Great Song Dynasty has only passed for more than ten years......
