The Shocking and Extraordinary Romance of the Great Sage

Chapter 10 (Volume)"Lubanqi City", summary of content (background):

The Yuan Dynasty was the first dynasty established and ruled by the Mongolian minority. Temujin led the tribe, and after more than ten years of war, he defeated the surrounding tribes and unified Mongolia. In 1206 AD, the Mongolian nobles proclaimed Temujin as Great Khan at the source of the Onan River and named him Genghis Khan, and the Great Mongolian Kingdom was established. The Mongolian army destroyed Xiliao in 1218. He conquered Xixia in 1227. Unfortunately, Genghis Khan died of illness just as he was about to attack the Jin Kingdom. In 1234, Song and Mongolia united to destroy the Jin Kingdom. In 1235, Mongolia invaded the Southern Song Dynasty, and the soldiers and civilians of the Southern Song Dynasty resisted desperately...

In 1253 AD, Kublai Khan led the Mongolian army to attack and destroy the Dali Kingdom (Yunnan area).

In 1264 AD, Kublai Khan, the successor grandson of Genghis Khan, defeated Ali Buge and later moved the capital to Yanjing (Beijing). The founding name of the country was Dayuan, and he ascended the throne and became emperor. The Yuan Dynasty was established.

Genghis Khan (Temujin), a Mongolian nomad, was born on the banks of the Onan River. Borzhijin* Temujin (May 31, 1162 - August 25, 1227) There is a lot of controversy in the world about the evaluation of Genghis Khan (Temujin). On the one hand, some people believe that Genghis Khan is a great national hero and one of the three greatest military geniuses in the world. He brought peace to the world and made great contributions to the world.………………

On the other hand, people think: Genghis Khan is the leader of the three evil men in the world. He traveled across Europe and Asia with his iron cavalry, killing and plundering arrogantly and brutally. The conquests he launched resulted in the death of hundreds of millions of people in the war, and the war brought serious disasters to the people of Eurasia.………………

The Mongol Empire made three western expeditions. The trigger of the First Western Expedition was: Genghis Khan sent 500 Mongolian merchants to the Western Regions, but the king acted arbitrarily and killed the envoys sent to negotiate. Khwarazm killed 499 of these Mongolian civilian merchants.…………The three Western Expeditions and other bloody wars caused more than 100 million casualties in countries including China, Central Asia, and Eastern Europe.……………………………………

In 1276 AD, the capital of Lin'an was captured by the Yuan army. In the naval battle of Yashan in 1279, the Song army was completely defeated. On March 19, Lu Xiufu jumped into the sea and died carrying Zhao Bing, the last emperor of the Song Dynasty. Subsequently, more than 800 members of the royal family collectively jumped into the sea and committed suicide. One hundred thousand soldiers and civilians jumped into the sea to die for the country, and the Southern Song Dynasty was destroyed. The Song Dynasty had a total of eighteen emperors, which lasted for 319 years. Unexpectedly, the final defeat was so tragic.…………

When the Southern Song Dynasty was attacked by the Yuan army, there were many anti-Yuan heroes in the Song Dynasty, and Wen Tianxiang was one of the great heroes. After he was captured, he wrote a poem"Crossing the Lingding Ocean", with the famous line"Since ancient times, no one has died, leaving a loyal heart to illuminate history", which has been praised by future generations.

In the Yuan Dynasty, Shi Naian (about 1296-about 1370) wrote"Water Margin", one of the four famous works. This masterpiece was originally called"The Legend of Jianghu Heroes".

Yuan Dynasty periodDrama writer Guan Hanqing ranks first among the"Four Great Masters of Yuan Opera"... There are also many literati such as painter Wang Mian.……

****************************

During the prosperous years of the Yuan Dynasty, many wealthy Mongolian families moved south, and the Han people suffered greatly. Around 1300 AD, in Qicheng in the south of the Yangtze River, Dongmen Jiebing and the girl Ximenhua met by chance and got married. They were a pair of lovers. They opposed unjust wars at home and abroad, and the Mongolian army violently killed innocent foreigners. They hated Killing and plundering... At that time,"Lubanqi City" was unique and prosperous, exquisite and elegant. It welcomed many people from ethnic minorities, and Lubanqi City became even more mysterious.………A century-old pine cannot grow in a flowerpot, and a thousand-mile horse cannot run in a greenhouse. The heroes Dongmen Jiebing and Ximenhua became a couple and experienced many life battles.…………

(1) The beggar man rescued the girl who jumped off the cliff.

Chapter 1 Ximen Hua composed a poem. In the night sky, there were bursts of singing. The music of shengxiao and drums is pleasing to the ears. There are a group of girls in colorful clothes like flowers and butterflies, dancing in various poses, with long silk sleeves fluttering in the air. The dancers are charming, singing and singing in response to each other. One team comes off the stage, and another team comes on again. It's so lively.

The hundred and ten members of the Erximen family enjoyed it, and they all sat around to watch it, and they were full of admiration while tasting tea. The host was sitting at the table, none other than Ximen Di, a rich man from Qingcheng, nicknamed Ximen Bubai from Jiangcheng. His wife Hua Songsun and Sun Jue were all smiles. The couple turned their attention to their daughter Ximen Hua, who was sitting between them. It turns out that this luxurious dance party was a grand expense for her daughter.

The girl Ximen Hua is really like a fairy, like a huge bright and eye-catching flower. The eyes of many wealthy young men were attracted and they were fascinated. The flowers at Ximen are full of joy, graceful and naturally beautiful, quite beautiful. Her parents were such a precious girl and loved her so much. They respectfully invited her to sit in the middle, but she acted even more wildly and naughtily. Sometimes she would pull her father's black beard, and sometimes she would kiss her mother's beautiful face, making all the wealthy guests and relatives secretly admire her and feel jealous in silence.

Ximenhua is nicknamed Huaer by her parents. She despised those noble playboys and didn't even look at them. Looking at the young men sitting there, they seemed to be looking at a bunch of wooden figures. She smiled and wondered that she could not find a sweetheart, and she was not interested in singing and dancing at the banquet. Occasionally he would sigh, take a bite of the fruit and throw it on the ground. Smiling on the outside, unhappy in the heart.

The singing and dancing lasted until the third watch, when Ximenhua was so sleepy that she fell asleep on the brocade table, so Ximenhua waved her hand and told the dancers to stop. A row of maids helped Ximen Hua to sleep, and everyone nodded and dispersed.

In the afternoon of the next day, Ximenhua finished dressing up and walked alone to the small lake in the back garden, feeling worried. Sometimes he gets excited, looks at the scene and feels emotional, and on a whim, he sings a poem, and writes a poem called"The Furious Man" with seven rhymes: How can the earth be longer than the world, and cover the sky with one hand to compete with madness?

Xiaoye is blind and cannot see the mountain, and the violent man thinks he is the emperor.

The elephants in Qicheng are long dead, and only the monkeys are king.

The world is ruthless and I am ruthless. How can I be so high in the palace?

After Ximen Hualing finished this poem, he was filled with thoughts. He looked up to the sky and sighed,"There are silver-wheel lamps hanging in the sky, and only one soul shines on the earth."

Raise your head to the red sun and transform yourself into a double person.

The Ximen Flower walked lightly, admiring it, and unknowingly started to go up the hillside. When I was out of breath, I stood up and sang again:

Going up the mountain in a winding way, looking back at the unresolved grievances in the world.

The birds on the shore are constantly chirping, and the yellow flowers and green seedlings are full of love.

Dark clouds gather in the mountains, and lightning strikes in the magical city.

I hope that the clouds will disperse and the blue sky will come out, and my close friends will accompany me.

Thinking of this, Ximenhua couldn't help but feel shy, bashful, and depressed. After staying for a while, I looked up, thinking a lot, and Leng Bingbing wrote a poem called"Desolate Flower":

Colorful flowers are fragrant to me, and dancing swords are always beside the bananas.

Although the weather is cold every day in winter, the love of the past is deep and long.

Thousands of kumquats are red and yellow, and it is desolate to watch at this time.

Being far away from the lake garden makes me feel worried, but I hope there is hope in my dreams.

Thinking of this, she suddenly burst into tears and couldn't stop them. It turns out that the girl Ximen Hua remembered a painful thing, which was also her marriage. Although she was sixteen years old, when she was twelve years old, the lord (princess) of this strange city, Ximen Tian, ​​forced her parents to agree to an engagement. The princess, Da Ximen, also known as Ximen Tian, ​​was rich and powerful, and no one could afford to offend her. Ximendi is called Erximen, and he is also the second largest leader in this big city with eighteen miles of square garden. But Er Ximen was wealthy and relied on Da Ximen as his backer. His second leader is a cousin, and the second Ximen is not as good as Da Ximen in terms of financial resources and martial arts. He is afraid of the princess Da Ximen, so he has to secretly agree to this marriage: when his daughter turns sixteen, he will marry the city lord Ximen Tian. It is placed on Ximenhua’s sixteenth birthday on August 16th in the lunar calendar.
