Returned to the Song Dynasty and became a faint king
Chapter 57 Kong Yuanyong and Du Chong
Recently, people have been really in high spirits during happy events. Not only do I have warm cotton clothes to wear, but I also have warm cotton quilts to cover me. I am so happy.
It was an okay day. I personally gave a cotton-padded coat to each of the six disciples, but they were extremely happy. Master Li personally made two more cotton coats, one for Mrs. Yao Tai and one for Yue Yinping. Then I gave the remaining cotton to the Shaofu Supervisor and asked them to make some cotton clothes for the soldiers guarding the Yellow River.
Since Yue Fei came back, I rarely go to Yue Fei's house! Even though I went there once when I was delivering cotton-padded clothes, I just exchanged a few words with Yue Fei and then left! Even Yue Yinping has never met him.
I have been waiting for Yue Fei to find me. Unfortunately, Yue Fei has not left the Yue family since his return to the imperial court. The Yue family only opens the door during morning court, and at other times the Yue family keeps the door closed and does not accept guests.
It can be said that the current Yue family is the most noble family in the Song Dynasty! Every day, many ministers come to visit the Yue family in an endless stream, but they are all turned away!
I felt very melancholy after leaving my Yue family. I don’t know what Yue Fei is thinking. Does he want to support the old emperor Zhao Ji and re-enthrone him as emperor, or does he want to support me? It’s so unpredictable!
At this time, Yue Fei was talking to his mother-in-law in the room. The mother-in-law looked at Yue Fei and said: Your Majesty came to visit you personally, why are you like this?
Yue Fei said: The emperor is young, and now he has done several major things that won the hearts and minds of the people. He has won the hearts and minds of the military and the people. It is a pity that he did not win the hearts of the ministers in the DPRK, and also deeply offended many ministers.
I have already received letters from Jin and Yuan. They should be trying to persuade me to persuade the emperor to exchange prisoners and exchange Huizong and Qinzong back.
There are two reasons why I have not expressed my position. The first one is to see how much trust the emperor has in our family. The second level is waiting for the ministers bribed by Yuan and Jin to show their fox tail. Then we can catch them all in one fell swoop.
After hearing this, the mother-in-law said: Mom doesn't understand the things above the court, but the emperor is really a good boy. He is also filial to his mother and attentive to the screen. You have to help him well!
After listening to his mother-in-law's words, Yue Fei couldn't help but smile bitterly. When you are in the court, you really can’t help yourself! How easy is it to stay out of it?
So Yue Fei said to his mother: Mom, don't worry! The son knows what to do in the future. After hearing this, the mother-in-law said to Yue Fei: Son, mother heard from Yinping that the emperor had always told Yinping that his and Yinping's son would be the prince.
If that happens, the future emperor will have half the blood of our in-laws. After hearing this, Yue Fei said: It's too early to say this now. Our Yue family can serve the country loyally.
I walked out of my in-law's house sadly, wanting to go to the Red Sleeve Song and Dance Theater to listen to music. I feel like I'm about to get married, and I feel a little sorry for the screen.
Then I took Shao Chengzhang and the others back. Before he had time to rest after returning to the palace, a eunuch came over to report that Kou Zhun had been waiting for a long time!
Kou Zhun was brought up soon! Kou Zhun said: "I have reported to the emperor that twelve ministers have colluded with the Jin and Yuan countries." It was the Kong family who made the connection.
I was so angry after hearing this, I didn't expect it! The descendants of the Confucius family actually came up with something like this. If Confucius knew about it, would he jump out of his grave and beat him to death?
I said to Kou Zhun: If any collaborators and traitors are found in the future, there is no need to report them to me. Just confiscate their homes and exterminate their clans! After hearing this, Kou Zhun said: "Let me report to the emperor that there are more than a dozen ministers whose wives, children, old and young are still suffering in the Jin and Yuan countries." They asked the emperor to exchange their wives, children and children back.
After hearing this, I said: As long as they are not collaborating with the enemy, they are all good ministers. You try your best to replace the wives, children, parents of those ministers, and don't chill the hearts of the ministers.
After hearing this, Kou Zhun immediately said: Thank you, Your Majesty. I will thank the Emperor for your kindness on their behalf. I helped Kou Zhun up and said: As long as they live up to me, I will never treat them badly. After hearing this, Kou Zhun finally felt relieved. He was really afraid that I would kill him randomly.
It was already December in the blink of an eye, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites were already busy. All matters related to my marriage were handed over to the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette, and Kou Zhun and the other three great matchmakers were also busy with their work.
The three of them also had to negotiate with officials from the Yuan and Jin kingdoms about the exchange of prisoners. It is worth mentioning that the official negotiating with the Yuan Kingdom was Kong Yuanyong, the contemporary Yan Shenggong of the Kong family.
Kong Yuanyong appeared and slapped the faces of scholars all over the world. The scholars and people in Bianjing City have already finished greeting Kong Yuan's whole family!
The general content of the negotiation is that Huizong's family and Qinzong's family can exchange [-] soldiers from the Jin Kingdom and [-] soldiers from the Yuan Kingdom. The remaining soldiers of the Yuan and Jin countries only wanted one soldier in exchange for a hundred Song people.
Kou Zhun and the others definitely disagreed. They demanded that one soldier must be exchanged for three hundred Song people. One million of them were personally selected by Song officials.
The Yuan Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom definitely disagreed, so they have been in endless negotiations. Kong Yuanyong and Du Chong, who had no virtue or talent, were so angry that they blew their beards and stared. Seeing them angry, Kou Zhun and the three of them felt very comfortable.
People in the Song Dynasty all over the world wanted to eat their flesh and drink their blood. These two traitors were so hateful that they personally led troops and captured many people of the Song Dynasty.
Kou Zhun and the three of them were not in a hurry. Every day, a soldier from Yuan and Jin who died of exhaustion, starvation or freezing was handed over to them. Then Kublai Khan and Wan Yanliang killed a family member of Kong Yuanyong and Du Chong. In just a few days, the two of them had lost more than [-] pounds.
In the end, they had no choice but to spend one hundred thousand taels of silver each on Kong Yuanyong and Du Zhong to buy some clothes and food, and Kou allowed them to hand them over to the prisoners.
When Kou Zhun and Fan Zhongyan found out, they spit on Kong Yuanyong and Du Chong. The two of them didn't dare to resist even after being spat on. They had no choice but to kneel on the ground and beg for mercy.
Finally, Kong Yuanyong and Du Chong spent another [-] taels of silver to buy clothes and food for all the people who built Laojun Academy (Laojun Academy). Only then did the anger of Kou Zhun and Fan Zhongyan calm down, and the salaries of Yuan and Jin became a little easier.
The negotiations are still going on endlessly. I have already told Kou Zhun and the others that one gold or yuan soldier must be exchanged for at least two hundred people. As a result, Kou Zhun and the others wanted to replace three hundred people, so they are still wrangling now.
But we are not in a hurry. My idea is to exchange prisoners after the New Year. After all, (Junshan Academy) is still under construction, and it really can’t do without their free labor.
