In the spring of the guimao year of the Jin, the Emperor's Stronghold was elevated to Huining Prefecture and established as the Supreme Capital (Shangjing); the Supreme Capital of the Liao was renamed the Northern Capital (Beijing). Prior to this, at the beginning of the Jurchen state, there were no walled cities; they only referred to them as the Emperor's Stronghold, the State Chancellor's Stronghold, and the Crown Prince's Estate. Only now were these changed. They established the Three Departments and Six Ministries, prefects, vice-prefects, and subordinate officials. The Chancellor of the Left and Prince of Chen, Wushi, devised the Jurchen script to put it into use (Jin chronicles). In the fifth month, Aguda (Min) pursued Tianzu northwards and died of illness along the road. He was posthumously named Emperor Dasheng Wuyuan, with the temple name of Taizu. Min had founded the state and ascended the throne for a total of six years from beginning to end. His younger brother Ukimai succeeded him and changed his name to Sheng; he was the second son of Grand Preceptor Yangge. He changed the sixth year of Tianfu to the first year of Tianhui and reigned for eleven years. All eight sons of Min were enfeoffed as princes. Earlier, Zhang Jue, a man of Yan from Pingzhou (Hedong Shanxi Circuit's Pingluan Circuit and Luanzhou are both ancient Pingzhou), had passed the civil service examinations and served Yan. In the first year of Jianfu (the reign title of Chun, King of Yan; the renyin year), he was appointed Military Commissioner of Liaoxing Army (Liao's army at Pingzhou). The Jin figure Nianhan wished to capture Jue, but Kang Gongbi said, 'This will only incite his rebellion.' He went alone to see Jue to convey the Jin state's intentions. Jue said, 'Of the eight circuits of the Khitan, only Pingzhou now survives. How would I dare harbor disloyal ambitions? The reason I have not laid down armor is merely to defend against Xiao Gan.' Kang reported his words, and Nianhan believed him. He changed Pingzhou to Nanjing, conferred on Jue the title of Joint Manager of Affairs with the Secretariat-Chancellery and concurrently Magistrate of the Regent's Office; in truth, he wished to plot against him. Jue killed Zuo Qigong and others of the Jin, and surrendered Pingzhou to the Song. In the eleventh month, Jin troops launched a surprise attack and crushed Pingzhou, capturing an imperial edict written in the emperor's own brush on gold-flecked paper bestowed upon Jue by the Song court. The Jin then laid the blame on the Song, sending repeated dispatches to the Song court's Pacification Commission demanding Jue. Having no alternative, the Song ordered Wang Anzhong to execute Jue, encase his head in a box, and send it to the Jin. Shortly thereafter, the Jin Crown Prince Wolibu invaded the Song from Pingzhou (Jin chronicles).
