Chapter 477 All the beauties from the Kingdom of Jin enter my harem

Yuwen Xuzhong, who enjoyed a high reputation in the northeast region and saved hundreds of thousands of lives in Shangjing City in times of crisis, was appointed as the prefect of Beining.

Han Qixian was born in the north and served as the right prime minister of the Jin Dynasty. He was appointed as the Tongpan of Beining by Jiang Hongfei.

Gao Qingyi, a core member of Wanyan Zonghan's former think tank and a Bohai noble, was appointed as the Tongzhi by Jiang Hongfei.

Jiang Hongfei appointed these three influential figures in the northeast region to take charge of the governance of Beining Prefecture.

The formation of this leadership team undoubtedly made the people of Beining Road who had just joined the Yuan Empire very satisfied.

It is particularly worth mentioning that when Jiang Hongfei selected officials for Beining Road, he fully considered the particularity of regional culture and ensured that the new leadership team included both old ministers of the Jin Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty and capable officials with rich governance experience in Yanyun and Liaodong.

The common feature of these officials is that they are well aware of the local conditions and customs of Beining Road, and can adapt to local conditions and avoid blind governance.

This move not only enhanced the trust and recognition of the people of Beining Road in the Yuan Empire, but also laid a solid foundation for the long-term development of Beining Road.

In addition, Jiang Hongfei pardoned all those who voluntarily surrendered to the Yuan Empire in Shangjing Road - except for a very small number of extremely evil criminals, no one would be held accountable.

This move also greatly eased ethnic conflicts and promoted ethnic integration.

At the same time, Jiang Hongfei knew that in order to truly integrate Beining Road into the embrace of the Yuan Empire, it was far from enough to rely solely on political means, and efforts in many aspects such as economy and culture were also needed.

To this end, Jiang Hongfei formulated a grand immigration plan, aiming to completely change its population structure and accelerate its integration with the Yuan Empire through large-scale immigration to the Northeast.

Jiang Hongfei ordered the Ministry of Households to formulate a detailed plan, planning to migrate 30 million Han people to the Northeast within ten years to dilute the local population of only a few million other ethnic groups.

That's right.

The vast Northeast land had only a few million people at this time.

During the heyday of the Liao Dynasty, the population of the country was only 8.9 million, and Yanyun accounted for one-third of it.

After Jiang Hongfei seized Yanyun, the population of the Northeast dropped sharply, leaving only 5 to 6 million.

When the Jin Dynasty rose, wars continued and internal strife continued, and the population fell to less than 5 million.

Among them, the Khitan accounted for about 16.85%, the Han nationality ranked first, accounting for 42.7%, the Jurchen followed closely, accounting for about 10.11, the Bohai and Xi nationalities accounted for 14.04, and the grassland tribes together accounted for 16.3.

Therefore, the three major ethnic groups of Han, Khitan, and Jurchen constitute the cornerstone of the population of the Northeast, especially the Han nationality, whose number has surpassed the sum of all other ethnic groups.

If the Han nationality is not counted, only the other ethnic groups are mentioned, and the total number is only more than 2 million, and this number still includes the grassland tribes far away from the Northeast.

And this number is still decreasing as the war spreads.

The key is that the Jurchens, who account for a large part of the population of Northeast China, are gradually dying out due to the slaughter of the Khitan.

If Jiang Hongfei can attract 30 million Han people to settle in, and then relocate the Khitan, Bohai, Xi and other ethnic groups, Northeast China will surely become an inseparable part of the Yuan Empire.

Admittedly, this move is full of challenges. At this time, Northeast China is a desolate border, and the Han people are definitely unwilling to come.

However, Jiang Hongfei has a plan for this.

First of all, the black soil in Northeast China is fertile and is known as "one ounce of local products and two ounces of oil". For the Han people who make a living by farming, this is a blessing from heaven and is enough to become a driving force for migration.

Therefore, as long as the Yuan Dynasty court vigorously publicizes the agricultural advantages of the Northeast region and attracts Han people to come and open up. At the same time, he also adopted a series of preferential policies, such as tax reduction and exemption, land provision, technical support, etc., to reduce the burden of immigrants and increase their production enthusiasm.

Furthermore, the Heilongjiang River Basin in Northeast China is like a bright pearl inlaid with spiritual stones, shining brightly.

Downstream, there are more than ten famous Lingshi mines scattered along the Heilongjiang and Songhua rivers, among which the Mohe Lingshi mine is particularly prominent. Its long history and rich resources have attracted the covetousness of Russia, and poachers flocked to it, creating an unprecedented grand occasion.

Jiang Hongfei can learn from the experience of the San Francisco Gold Rush, inspire the enthusiasm of the Han people to explore the Northeast, and turn this bitter and cold land into a prosperous place.

Not only that, the Northeast also contains valuable resources such as coal, iron, oil, and timber, which are increasingly valued by the Yuan Empire and have become a magnet to attract Han people to settle down for a long time.

Today, the Yuan Empire has a population of nearly 400 million.

Faced with the rapid increase in the empire's population, a huge number close to 400 million, Jiang Hongfei is ready to tighten the policy north of the Great Wall, relax the Northeast regions such as Liaodong, Jidi and Beining Road, and guide the Han people to migrate spontaneously to relieve population pressure.

Under the strategy, the key lies in the construction of infrastructure.

Railways and ports are like the blood that closely connects the Northeast and the Yuan Empire, especially railways, whose importance is self-evident.

For this reason, the Ministry of Revenue spared no expense to recruit five million civilians, sweating and building roads in the Northeast. At the same time, this also brought new vitality to the Northeast.

If Yuwen Xuzhong and others were wise, they would be able to see the opportunities and let many young and strong civilians settle down here and take root in the Northeast.

What good strategies are there?

For example, the number of Jurchen men has been reduced in large numbers, leaving behind countless Jurchen women, which are available resources.

That is, what Jiang Hongfei used to do before, giving wives to Han men who were willing to settle in the Northeast, and even "buying big and giving small".

Some people may pity the Jurchens and feel that they have suffered a miserable fate, but in fact, history is a cycle, and the winner is the king.

And when the Jurchens were strong, their actions were even more cruel.

Compared with the tragic fall of the Jin Dynasty in history, this move was nothing compared to the great one.

In history.

The Jin Dynasty ultimately failed to resist the surging torrent of the Mongolian cavalry.

The Mongolian army was unstoppable, and the Jin army retreated step by step until the capital, Tokyo Bianliang, was surrounded.

At that time, the Jin army in the city had been holding on for a year, plague was rampant, food and grass were in short supply, and corpses were everywhere outside the city gates.

According to statistics, there were 950,000 corpses alone, and there were countless people who were too poor to bury them.

Faced with a desperate situation, Jin Aizong wanted to retreat. He appointed Cui Li as prime minister and stayed in Tokyo, but he quietly crossed the Yellow River to the north and fled to Shangqiu, Henan, intending to find a ray of hope.

However, Cui Li had different intentions and had long been secretly communicating with Mongolia. He used cities, wealth and royal family members as bait to exchange for Mongolia's support, intending to become a puppet king in the Central Plains.

The Mongols readily agreed, and Cui Li immediately ordered that the queen mother, empress, concubines and royal relatives of the Jin Kingdom, totaling hundreds of people, as well as craftsmen, doctors, and embroiderers, be escorted to the Mongolian camp.

After these people arrived in Mobei, the women became playthings and the men became slaves, with miserable fates.

Jin Aizong temporarily found peace in Shangqiu, but cities such as Dongjing and Luoyang were lost one after another.

In panic, he heard that Caizhou had strong defenses and sufficient food and grass, so he hurriedly fled to Caizhou again.

However, the Song-Mongol coalition followed closely and surrounded Caizhou.

After besieging the city for several months, the food in the city was exhausted and the Jin army was desperate. They even ate people, and the old, weak, and sick were all on the plate.

In order to survive, the Jin army even killed the defeated army and ate their meat. There is no greater tragedy in the world than this.

Under the fierce attack of the Song-Mongol coalition, the outer city of Caizhou quickly fell.

In desperation, the Jin army was so desperate that they threw the old and weak children in the city into the oil pot and refined boiling oil as a "weapon" in an attempt to stop the attack of the coalition forces.

For a time, there were wailing all over Caizhou City, and it was hell on earth.

In the end, under the joint encirclement of the Song-Mongol coalition, Caizhou City was broken and the Jin Dynasty was destroyed.

In despair, Jin Aizong foresaw the end of his life and resolutely abdicated to the clan member Wanyan Chenglin, and then committed suicide, unwilling to witness the destruction of his country and his family.

His body was divided, half into Mongolia and half into the Southern Song Dynasty, leaving a regret for eternity.

It was rumored that Meng Gong allowed his soldiers to humiliate all the women of the Jin nobles in order to avenge the shame of Jingkang, and even personally went into battle against the queen of the Jin Dynasty.

Afterwards, the "Humiliation of the Queen" was leaked, which vividly and vividly depicted the scene in detail.

After the fall of the Jin Dynasty, under the iron hoof of the Mongolian army, the Wanyan clan became the target of public criticism, suffered a devastating disaster, and was almost extinct.

The survivors were forced to change their names and hide from the world, and the Wanyan bloodline has since been eclipsed in the torrent of history.

Compared with the tragic destruction of the Jurchens in history, the Jurchens of today have suffered many misfortunes, but at least they died happily, and after they died, no one ate their wives and children and boiled oil, and there were people who helped them to support their wives and children.

For them who had committed heinous crimes, this was a good ending...

...

Empress Daoping Pei Manshi was a beauty from the Jurchen noble Poluhuo tribe. She was only seventeen years old and was the legitimate empress of Jin Xizong Wanyan Tan. To put it in a figurative way, her status was just like that of Empress Zhu Lian when the Zhao Song Dynasty was destroyed, and she was the undisputed empress of the Jin Dynasty.

Tang Kuo Huier, the Grand Empress Dowager of Mingde Palace, was thirty-four years old. She witnessed the rise and fall of two generations of the Jin Dynasty. As the wife of the political marriage of Jin Taizong Wanyan Wuqimai, she was honored as the Grand Empress Dowager after Wuqimai's death, and her influence can be compared with that of Empress Dowager Zheng of the Zhao Song Dynasty.

Queen Ai Tushan, her virtue and kindness are widely known in history. As the legitimate mother of Hailing Wang Wanyan Liang, although she had no biological children, she treated Wanyan Liang as her own son and raised him carefully. Her maternal demeanor made everyone in the harem admire her. After Hailing Wang ascended the throne, Tushan and Da were both honored as empress dowagers, living in the East Palace Yongshou Palace and the West Palace Yongning Palace respectively. The two palaces coexisted and jointly maintained the peace of the harem of the Jin Dynasty.

Queen Cixian Da was originally Wanyan Zonggan's concubine. The son she gave birth to was Hailing Wang Wanyan Liang, who launched a coup in history and became the fourth emperor of the Jin Dynasty.

Queen Tushan, the childhood sweetheart of Wanyan Liang, was the apple of Tushan Xieye's eye. She was only fourteen years old and had already signed a marriage contract with Wanyan Liang, but had not yet entered the marriage hall. However, she was also the legitimate queen of Wanyan Liang in history.

As for the princesses of the Jin Dynasty, there were even more, and each of them had her own charm.

Princess Wugu and Princess Pucha, daughters of Wanyan Aguda, were like twins; Princess Mei'er, the second daughter of Wanyan Wuqimai, was gentle and moving. The two eldest princesses Dibo and Cuige, and Princess Qingyi and Pingyang of Wanyan Zonggan's lineage were all pearls of the Jin Dynasty's royal family.

Although the daughters of Wanyan Tan were not very old, all seven of them were beautiful. Jiang Hongfei would raise them for more than ten years and they would also be Jiang Hongfei's excellent playthings.

And these were only the daughters of the Jin Dynasty's royal family who had the title of princess.

In addition, there were many "princesses" who did not receive titles in the Jin Dynasty's royal family, such as Jiaxiang County Princess, the Fourth Princess of the Emperor, and the Sixth Princess of the Emperor, which were countless.

There are also nearly 300 daughters of the Jin kings, who are close relatives of the county princesses.

If all the women of the Wanyan clan are counted one by one, the number is probably not less than 1,000, but not less than 800.

And the number of princesses is even more difficult to count.

From Wanyan Aguda's concubines to Wanyan Wuqimai's old love, to Wanyan Tan and Wanyan Liang's many concubines, and even Wanyan Zonggan, Wanyan Zongjun and other concubines who were posthumously conferred as concubines of the emperor.

Moreover, all of Wanyan Aguda's dozen sons and Wanyan Wuqimai's dozen sons were crowned as kings, their wives were all princesses, and each of them had a large number of concubines.

The royal and clan families of the Jin Dynasty had too many women, because the Jin people were a group of robbers, they robbed wherever they went, and most of them had many women.

There were also those prominent meritorious officials of the Jin Dynasty, such as Wanyan Loushi, Wanyan Chang, Wanyan Yinshuke, Wanyan Salihe, etc., who were also crowned as kings for their outstanding merits, and their wives also became noble princesses, and their respective palaces were full of beauties and concubines.

In addition, the younger generation of the Jin Dynasty, such as Wanyan Chong, the son of Wanyan Zonggan, had also grown up. They also followed in the footsteps of their fathers and grandfathers, and were crowned as kings and given titles, and their wives and concubines were also princesses and concubines.

In short, the number of Jin's royal and clan daughters added together is almost 3,000, which is no less than that of the Zhao Song Dynasty.

In addition, there are a large number of Jin's noble daughters, and their number is no less than 3,000.

Moreover, there are also thousands of women from the Goryeo, Tatar, Zhajila, Hedixin, Shanzhikun, Wanggu and other tribes who were imprisoned in Jin Shangjing by Jin Wushu.

Zhang Jun is good at flattering his superiors and making Jiang Hongfei happy.

He sent all these women back to Jiang Hongfei, and none of them were pocketed, which established this great achievement.

It must be said that Jiang Hongfei understood more and more why the emperor liked to use treacherous ministers, because they were too good at doing things and understood the emperor's mind too well.

Take Zhang Jun as an example.

Zhang Jun actually sent back tens of thousands of women to Jiang Hongfei in one breath.

In comparison, there were only a few hundred men, and the others were all dealt with by him, never leaving any trouble for Jiang Hongfei.

A brief summary.

The Ministry of Rites screened through strict standards, and finally more than 3,000 women stood out. They were either from the royal family of the Jin Dynasty, or from the Jurchen nobles, or from the grassland tribes. In short, none of them had ordinary identities.

——Well... if a woman with no identity can be selected by the Ministry of Rites to enter the palace, it means that this woman is absolutely the most beautiful among all the beauties.

In short, this expansion is not only amazing in quantity, but also in quality.

After more than 20 years of dominance, the Jin Dynasty won countless beauties from the Liao Empire, and conquered the grassland tribes to make Xixia and Goryeo surrender, and took beauties from all ethnic groups into its pocket.

Under the dual effects of political marriage and war plunder, the Jurchens had a considerable number of beauties from all ethnic groups.

In order to strengthen the country and reproduce the race, the Jin Dynasty encouraged childbirth, so that although the number of its beauties was not as prosperous as that of the Zhao Song Dynasty, it had surpassed the Liao Dynasty and became a beautiful landscape in the north.

However, all the accumulation and efforts of the Jin Kingdom seemed to have turned into the prosperity of Jiang Hongfei's harem in the end. To put it bluntly, all the beauties they collected with great effort and gave birth to were given to Jiang Hongfei...
