In the sixth year of Shengyuan, the prince Xianya passed away. The Lord of Khitan was furious and led an army of 700,000 to attack Jin in one fell swoop. Jin was destroyed.
After the princess of Jin Dynasty learned the news, she jumped from Qianzhang Cliff to die for her country. Prince Li Xin chased her and also died at the foot of Qianzhang Cliff. The late emperor was deeply saddened after hearing the news. He became seriously ill and could not afford it, but he was reluctant to establish a new crown prince. It wasn't until the spring of the next year that the late emperor died, and his son Jingtong was made the prince, which was also the emperor of the current dynasty - Li Jing.
It is now July of the sixth year of Baoda. It's been seven years since this happened.
What I most like to hear from the teahouse storyteller is the love story between the princess of the Later Jin Dynasty and the prince Li Xin. The storyteller spoke clearly and eloquently, as if he were present at the time.
He said that General White Tiger was filled with grief when he saw the prince and his wife jumping off a thousand-foot cliff. He knelt on the edge of the cliff with the young prince in his arms for seventy-seven forty-nine days. Finally, he was sent back to the mansion by his soldiers due to lack of physical strength.
As for the name of General White Tiger, the storyteller himself did not know. He only said that General White Tiger was a great hero in the Southern Tang Dynasty at that time. He had extremely high martial arts skills and everyone respected him.
My father was also a general at that time. I originally wanted Mr. Shu to tell me the name of General White Tiger so that I could go back and ask my father if I was an old acquaintance with him. But since even the storyteller himself doesn't know, I have no choice but to leave it at that...
