Also accompanying him was Han Xiaozhou, the head of the Meihua Han family and former envoy, who had been detained in Daming Prefecture by Nianhan for nearly half a year.

Not only that, they also included Princess Shunde Zhao Yingluo who had been forcibly occupied by Wanyan Nianhan, Princess Jiade Zhao Yupan who was taken as a concubine by Wuqimai's eldest son Puruhu, Princess Rongde Zhao Jinnu who was taken as a concubine by Talan, Princess Xunde Zhao Fujin who was taken as a concubine by Nianhan's eldest son Sheyeman, Princess Yifu Zhao Yuanzhu who was taken as a concubine by Wuzhu, Princess Ningfu Zhao Chuanzhu who was taken as a concubine by Eluguan (Wuzhu's sixth brother), and Princess Roufu Zhao Duofu who was in Wuqimai's palace at that time. More than a hundred looted princesses, noble ladies, and common people were also brought back... These should be all the women abducted during the Jing Kang period who could be found in the residences of Jin Dynasty dignitaries in Yanjing City.

Zhao Jiu had no reason not to allow these people to come back, nor did he have any reason to refuse Wulin Da Zanmo who sent these people back.

After Wulinda Zanmo entered Tokyo, a piece of news quickly spread along with the resettlement and return of these looted princesses and commoner women... The Jin Kingdom wanted to negotiate peace, and was willing to unconditionally return the two saints and all the looted royal relatives, nobles, imperial concubines and princesses below the princes to show its sincerity.

Even the Second Saint and the other princes can be released the same day after the peace talks are concluded... and then follow the example of the Liao Kingdom and become brothers.

After the Ministry of Rites, which was still unaware of this, had a hasty contact with him, Wulin Da Zanmo not only took the initiative to tell him the news, but also further stated that the new emperor of the Great Jin was willing to sign a secret agreement with the Great Song to depose Liu Yu, who had proclaimed himself emperor... in order to reach a peace treaty between the two countries.

When the news reached the capital, the elites of the empire understood it almost instantly... If they directly said that Liu Yu's throne should be abolished at this time, it meant that several counties in Jingdong could be negotiated... The North was really sincere in this peace negotiation!

As a result, almost everyone inside and outside the court, and among the people at all levels, was shaken.

It was like the so-and-so effect, the more you worry about something, the more it will happen. The strategic inducement that you have been afraid of for a long time finally appeared. Therefore, when the news reached the palace, Emperor Zhao, who had not yet had time to meet Han Xiaozhou and the princesses, immediately fell into a state of impotent rage... What Xixia, what cavalry, how could he care about it at this time?

After all, for Zhao Jiu, once the peace talks were reached, he had no idea whether he could mobilize this lame country again and carry out the Northern Expedition... This was what he feared the most. Therefore, the moment the news came, Zhao Jiu immediately felt a strange and frustrated state of failure in the main mission!

PS: Thanks to slyshen for posting the cute posts. This is the 117th one... And then I’ll present my new book as usual, “Six Doors 2077”... Isn’t the name very catchy?
