Biography of the traitorous officials who dominated the Song Dynasty

Chapter 131 Life is like a dream
The women were busy taking off their official hats and boots in response to the earl.

Pan Jinlian said urgently to Earl Ying: "Since noon today, many people have left Bianliang City with their families. What are your plans?"

Before Count Ying had time to speak, Pang Chunmei said: "It's already extremely urgent right now, and there is chaos in Bianliang City. If we continue to stay in Bianliang, what will happen if Bianliang City is defeated in three or four days?"

Earl Ying picked up a cup of hot tea on the table and took a sip.

Then, wiping the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, he said, "Be safe and don't be impatient. Although it seems that Song Jiangshan has no power to recover from this battle."

"But I can assure you that the Kingdom of Jin has absolutely no intention of annexing the Song Dynasty."

Huan'er opened her eyes wide and said in disbelief: "It shouldn't be like this! Although we ladies have not been to the battlefield in person and don't know how critical the frontline battle is, the news of the battle has spread all over the city."

"The Emperor of the Jin Kingdom, whose name is Wanyan Wu, has even announced to the world that he will cross the Yellow River and attack Bianliang City in three days."

"At this time of year, sir, you actually think that the Kingdom of Jin has no intention of annexing the Song Dynasty?"

War is always about life and death.

Every moment is full of unknowns, and at the same time, it is also full of unpredictable variables.

But how did Earl Ying know?
After all, how could he not know!
In history, the battles of Longcheng and Yanshan were only the first time that the Jin army went south.

The real demise of the Northern Song Dynasty occurred during the Jingkang Incident.

It will still take two or three years before the Jingkang incident.

At this moment, he was only thinking about escaping from Bianliang City, and there was no good way at all.

So with a smile on his face, Earl Ying pulled everyone back to the main hall and asked them to sit down peacefully.

Moved with emotion, Xiaozhi explained with reason.

Of course, he did not tell them about the "Jingkang Change".

He just said to them: "In this section, the Holy Dragon Chair can still be sat comfortably, so you don't have to be too impatient."

Li Ping'er was dumbfounded, her beauty turned pale, and said: "The Nu family really can't believe your nonsense. Is it possible that you still have the ability to predict the future?"

Ying'er blurted out: "Yes, Dad! You...can you tell fortunes?"

When Earl Ying heard what Ping'er and Huan'er said, he couldn't help laughing for a moment.

He smiled handsomely, put his hands behind his back, and walked towards the side hall at the back.

Pan Jinlian and the following people looked at the figure of Earl Ying leaving gracefully, with mixed feelings in their hearts.

The woman turned her head to look at Ying'er, Li Ping'er turned her head to look at Huan'er, they were all about to cry.

After all, Earl Ying was their husband. As the saying goes, a husband and a wife follow each other. Since Earl Ying had already decided, they could not go against Earl Ying's wishes.

He couldn't make any plans to leave Bianliang City and return to his hometown in Qinghe County.

In this way, today passed like this.

That night, Earl Ying lay on the bed and slept soundly at all.

His adopted daughter Ying'er sat beside his bed and looked at him, and asked pitifully: "In a few hours, you will have to go to court again. Dad, are you really okay? What did the emperor in the palace say? What about?"

Earl Ying put his head on his hands, looked at the ceiling and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, saying: "The emperor has already said that you can rest assured that the Song Dynasty will definitely have a way to deal with the Kingdom of Jin."

Ying'er naturally felt that these words were just for show and could not be taken seriously at all.

So he said: "Ying'er doesn't believe this kind of thing. This kind of thing is always said to those hardworking people. If Bianliang City is really destroyed, the emperor will definitely be the first to run away!" Earl Ying heard this. I think it's very interesting.

He stretched out his left hand from under his head, gently placed it on the right side of Ying'er's face, looked at Ying'er and said, "You're such a kid, you're a brat, but you actually have so many things in your head."

"Tell me quickly, who taught you this? In my opinion, it is impossible for your biological father Wu Dalang to tell you these words."

Ying'er thought for a while, nodded and said, "My biological father only sells cooking cakes all day long, so how could he possibly know these things? Even if I beat him to death, he wouldn't be able to say these things."

"These words were said by the neighbors on Zishi Street. I remember that before my biological father died, the Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom joined forces to attack the Liao Kingdom."

"Isn't it the same as now? There was a lot of commotion in Qinghe County at that time, and there were even many fortune tellers who could predict the future. Business was much better for a while, and there was an endless stream of customers..."

At the end of Ying'er's words, her voice was extremely weak.

At the end, Earl Ying could no longer hear clearly what she said next.

After a while, Earl Ying sighed softly, patted Ying'er's shoulder gently, and said, "Since your biological father died, your little lady Jin Lian took you out of the house."

"From then on, I started to raise you. To be honest, dad has to shoulder the responsibility of a father no matter what."

Ying'er nodded, with a sweet smile on her face.

Earl Ying looked at Ying'er and thought to himself: Ever since Pan Jinlian brought this child to me, it can be said that I have a clear conscience towards her and have always responded to her requests.

She is not my biological flesh and blood at all, but she is better than my biological flesh and blood.

Besides, I really like this kid. If anything else happens, if something big or small really happens, I swear to the count that I will never let this kid get hurt in the slightest.

On that day a long time ago, Wu Dalang died tragically in the hands of Pan Jinlian, who ran out of her home in a panic.

When she ran to the door, the woman hugged Ying'er in her arms and fled quickly with Ying'er.

All that happened that day is still fresh in Earl Ying's memory even now.

In his previous life, he had always heard people say that life was like a dream.

Now that I think about it, this statement is indeed true.

Looking back on the past, no matter the people or things in the past, they are just like a wisp of smoke in a dream.

So ethereal, so unbelievable.

Earl Ying fell asleep after thinking this.

After Pan Jinlian and others left the main hall, they did not return to their respective boudoirs. Chunmei, Ping'er, Huan'er and the others came to Pan Jinlian's boudoir together.

Several people sat side by side on the bed, all speechless.

After a long time, Pang Chunmei frowned and said, "Oh! If you really think about it, you will be scared to death!"

"Once the city of Bianliang is defeated, we will either be defiled by the Jin army in every possible way, or we will become the dead souls of the Jin army."

Li Ping'er nodded and said, "That's right! I've heard what others said during the day. The people in Longcheng and Yanshan have the same fate!"

"Speaking of it, most of the men are fine, and they are dead. But all the women, it is like falling into hell on earth overnight."

Pan Jinlian crossed her arms, her eyes turned cold, and she slowly stood up and looked at everyone.
