     In 1126, the first year of the Jingkang reign, my husband was governing Zichuan when we heard that the Jin Tartars were moving against the capital. He was in a daze, realizing that all those full trunks and overflowing chests, which he contemplated so lovingly and mournfully, would surely no longer be his soon.
