Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Chapter 392
In the inner hall, Shi Congyun was lying on Zhao Shijian's lap, and asked his wife to rub his temples gently. As for his son, he had already thrown him to the nanny, holding memorials from the Ministry of Rites in his hand. peace talks.

The covenant requires Honglu Temple, the Ministry of Rites, and the Imperial Academy to write it. After thinking about it, Shi Congyun appointed the old fellows of the Ministry of Rites. It is not a big or small matter. If the three departments are mixed together, it may not be possible. When is it going to be a joke.

The war has just started in the south, and the Liao mission in the north has arrived in the capital, and the envoys from the Southern Tang Dynasty are also there. Honglu Temple and Imperial Academy will be busy, so let the Ministry of Rites do it.

In addition, he didn't pay much attention to this matter.

Will the Liao Kingdom really not attack them after signing the covenant?How is that possible? Since ancient times, there has been no covenant that can overshadow benefits. As long as the benefits are large enough, it doesn't matter what covenant you have.

None of the peace talks between Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, the more well-known covenants of the three families of Cao, Liu and Sun, and the alliance between Li Shimin and the Turks under the city have been abided by.

Of course, he would not expect to just sign a signature, and everyone would live in peace and truly prevent each other from aggression.

The function of this flicker is nothing more than to reassure the Liao Kingdom and prevent them from making mistakes in chaos, or jumping over the wall in a hurry. He will not withdraw any soldiers in Guanbei. Of course, Emperor Shi's army deployed north of Sanguan is far from what he hung in There are [-] armored troops on the lips, and only [-] imperial troops, and they have to deal with the long defense line south of Youzhou.

If it is not prepared for war in the south, the number will increase.

"Then who is Xiao Chuo, who can make the officials never forget." Zhao Shijian who was behind him suddenly asked abruptly.

Shi Congyun's heart skipped a beat, and then he said solemnly, "Woman."

"A 12-year-old Khitan woman?" Zhao Shijian's hand became stronger.

"It happened for a reason, anyway, you don't understand." Shi Congyun was annoyed, he couldn't say that he was just getting rid of it, and arranged for himself a slightly safer future, so who would believe it.

Of course... It is not ruled out that he simply wanted to try, after all Xiao Chuo is too famous.

In short, it would not be said in the mouth: "You just trust me, and one day you will understand."

"Hmph, you want to try the barbarian women of Fanbang, and you still find so many excuses," Zhao Shijian said softly.

"Where, you're overthinking. If that's the case, then Xiao Hunian is not bad. Who does he think of me?" Shi Congyun said dissatisfied.

Zhao Shijian softened and massaged him softly, "Then why are you still scolding them? After all, they are envoys of a great country, and this will affect the situation in the world."

"I'm upset, so I want to vent my anger by scolding them." Shi Congyun curled his lips and said confidently.

Zhao Shijian didn't know that it was the second time he had worked so hard to get Xiao Chuo here. The last time his plan fell through because Shao Tingyu didn't understand his words, and this time because Xiao Siwen didn't understand his words, his plan fell through. Angry, Guo Ting said that he was one of his own people, so it was not easy to scold him to vent his anger, so naturally he could only scold him from the people of Liao.

Zhao Shijian couldn't help but smiled softly, his face was gentle, "You are an official now, you are the emperor, how can you still be as generous as before."

Shi Congyun threw the memorial in his hand on the side table, stretched his big hand up, and grabbed Zhao Shijian's tender little hand: "That's not the same, remember the little hut on the big tree in the small courtyard of Shifu?

How happy we can watch the stars and the moon when we live in it. I asked someone to build a room in the old tree outside the Long Live Hall. At night we went to watch the stars together. Shi Jin asked his nanny to take him. "

Zhao Shijian blushed, of course she knew what Emperor Shi was thinking, not looking at the stars.

"Can't you think more about the world's major events, and keep using your brain in other places?" Zhao Shijian's voice became smaller and smaller, and his white neck turned red.

Shi Congyun got up with a smirk, hugged her in his arms, and then stroked her back. Zhao Shijian must have recalled those good memories.

"I'm an old couple, what's there to blush about. Besides, I'm thinking about important national affairs. You see, this is a letter of alliance to discuss peace with the Liao Kingdom. The Ministry of Rites sent it over. Let me see if there are any mistakes.

And I'm also prepared for things in the south, not to mention that the more trouble I make here, the more attention I can attract, and the safer the military preparations for the south.

What I am most worried about now is the dead, only more gunpowder and more firearms can make me feel at ease."

"Several saltpeter mines in Hanzhong can be added this year, and will definitely increase a lot of output from next year." Even after entering the palace, Zhao Shijian, as a noble concubine, is still in charge of the Liushang Palace Duzhi.

Shi Congyun caressed her hair: "When the sword is sheathed and the horse is released in Nanshan, we can do nothing, watch the stars all day, give birth to a bunch of dolls, and then give them to the nanny to raise."

Zhao Shijian listened quietly, raised the corners of his mouth in a good-looking way, and obeyed him gently, "It's okay to watch the stars, but arrange everyone in the palace, they can't be inside, only little yellow flowers are allowed."

"Okay, I promise you everything!" Shi Congyun said excitedly.

Immediately picked her up, put her in his arms, and hugged her tighter: "Zhao Shijian, we have been together for so many years, they all say that I am wise and powerful, and I have a brilliant strategy, but in fact I know it is not.

Most of the time, it is between life and death, with fear and fear, and some are just lucky, and they don't know how far this road will go.

Sometimes I feel really tired and scared, not as relaxed and happy as I was when I only had brother [-] under my command. "

Zhao Shijian gently stroked his face, and his jade hands were warm, exuding tenderness like water, which is rare in her body: "That is the protection of the heavens, you are the son of heaven, and the heavens will naturally bless you.

The official family is the official family of all the people in the world
In the past [-] years, it has been disintegrated, people are dying, and China is rampant;
Nowadays, tens of thousands of people have abandoned their homes and businesses, and they are divided between labor and swallows, just to follow the officials and look at the dragon flag in the distance. There will always be a better result and an explanation to the world.

It will be brilliant and heavy, the result of remembering the ages, and the book of Qingshi pen and ink. "

Speaking of these, her eyes sparkled, the sparkle was beautiful, and she never left Shi Congyun's face for a moment.

"They say Gentleness, Hero Tomb, as a woman, I really want to refute, but I feel powerless to refute.

If I have to say something, I can only say that they are selfish.
There are so many of them, countless people in the whole world, who put their expectations, hopes, and longings for the future on the official family alone. Naturally, they don't want you to be confused by women, but to have high ambitions. People in the world hope that you are a hero. "

"What about you, do you want me to be a hero?" Shi Congyun asked.

Zhao Shijian put his arms around his neck and nodded seriously: "Hope, I am also a person in the world, one of the mortal beings, naturally I hope that the official is a hero, the hero who fascinates me the most, makes me love deeply, and makes me surrender. "

"Sooner or later, I will unify Kyushu!" He pecked Zhao Shijian's pink lips.

As he spoke, he picked up a pen and wrote down two large characters "Jing" and "Xing" on the white paper in front of him.

"For the past few days, one thing has been lingering in my heart. It's hard to make a decision, and I feel irritable when I think about it." Shi Congyun frowned.

Zhao Shijian didn't talk back this time, and snuggled into his arms obediently, "Just believe in yourself, the decisions you make are always the wisest, and it has always been like this."

Emperor Shi did not speak, quietly holding the baby in his arms. The unification of Kyushu is not just talking about it, just talking about it, there is a complete plan,

In his heart, Southern Han, Southern Tang, and Wu Yue are the first batch.

The sixteen prefectures of Yanyun, Liaodong, and Dali are the second batch.

Hetao, Hexi Corridor, and Western Regions are the third batch.

But there are many things, the road is long and difficult, and we need to persist in struggle. Many careers are far from being as simple as they seem.

In the south of Lingnan, from Shaoguan along the zigzagging North River, through mountains and valleys and dense forests, a strong city stands in Jiangxi. The two rivers meet, and the water network flows in parallel, washing out a large white sandbar, winding for several miles.

On the delta state, the sand and stones are scattered, and there are many white tents. At the end of the outer sandy land, there are civil fortress towers everywhere.

That was the Mingkou Daying Camp of the Southern Han Dynasty, located fifty miles southwest of Yingzhou, at the confluence of the Lianjiang River and the Beijiang River.

The Southern Han Dynasty set up the Guangkou Patrol Division here, hoarding and stationing heavy troops.

There are many boats and boats on the surface of the river, countless flags of various colors are flying, and there are many shirtless men by the water, practicing in line by the river.

In Tanzhou, several miles away in the middle of the river, there are many large and small camps, and there are many people coming and going.

Thigh-thick wood interweaves horizontally and vertically to form a high platform. On the high platform is a yellow pear wood grand master's chair, and a man sits on top of it. He is wearing an official uniform, embroidered with flying clouds and tigers, cuffs tightened, and a purple robe with a round collar.

The sergeant next to him reverently fanned the lawn cattail fan to drive away the sultry air still brought by the river mouth.

This person was Shao Tingyu who was sent by the ruler of the Southern Han Dynasty to train troops at the pass.

Shao Tingyu was a child from a poor family. In the Southern Han Dynasty, there was only one way for people like him to climb up, and that was to enter the palace from the palace.

Shao Tingyu took this path. Relying on his quick-wittedness, intelligence and eagerness to learn, he soon gained a foothold in the palace. Coupled with his hard work, he was promoted by the late emperor and became one of the most powerful eunuchs in the Southern Han Dynasty.

He came to Guangkou for military training at his own request.

Staying away from the emperor is tantamount to staying away from the center of power. Many unexpected accidents are likely to happen, and one's own power will also be lost. Shao Tingyu in the Jiuli Palace naturally knows this.

It's just that he still chooses this path, because he knows that the South Han Kingdom can't wait.
Because he was born in a poor family, Shao Tingyu longed for knowledge since he was a child, was diligent and studious, and learned from the past and the present.

A year ago, he explained to the king in Panyu how severe the current situation is.

To put it bluntly, the fact that the Southern Han Dynasty was able to settle south of the south of the Lingnan for 50 years was not due to the sageness of the rulers of the past dynasties, nor was it due to their civil and military talents.

But he looked at history and found that the general trend of the world is that the long-term will be united. Now the north is gradually showing signs of competition. The Qin Dynasty ruler Shi Congyun has the capital of God and is more and more likely to dominate the world. Now, it is difficult for the Southern Han Dynasty to stand alone.

The 50 years of peace also brought two major drawbacks to the imperial court. One is that the armaments are abolished, and the military does not pay enough attention to it, and has never faced the northern army.The second is pride and self-satisfaction, indulging in immortals and Buddhas, and thinking that the world is invincible.

Now that the general situation of the world has changed, especially after Shi Congyun defeated the Liao Kingdom, the court needs to be prepared with both hands.One is to prepare and train troops.The second is to take out the precious gold and silver in the treasury, communicate with the great powers in the north, and make good friends with them, and surrender if necessary.

All these need to be prepared early and quickly, as time waits for no one.

However, he still remembers the reaction of the young king at that time. It was neither angry nor happy, but rather stunned, as if he didn't understand what his long speech meant.

At that time, his heart was cold for a while, even if the king yelled at him after hearing it, at least it showed that he understood, but judging from the look of the king at that time, he didn't understand what he was talking about at all. The lack of news has left the Southern Han Kingdom in an atmosphere of building a car behind closed doors, indulging in their own small country, and not knowing how big the threat from the north is.

A few days later, someone participated in the performance, and His Majesty, belatedly, became disgusted with him.

However, after all, he has been in charge of the treasury for many years. His Majesty cannot do without him for eating, drinking, having fun, and traveling in mountains and rivers. However, he finally asked to leave Panyu to train troops in Guangkou, preparing to face the Northern Army.

Fan Huzi and other witches and sluts don't know the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth, and the general trend of the world, and they still want to confuse the officials.

But he can't sit still, he must make his last effort for the court.

Shao Tingyu, a hard-trained soldier far away by the river, asked the judge next to him: "How is the war in the north?"

The judge hesitated, "The battle reports for the past few days are similar, and the counterattacks have all been defeated. The Qin army has completely occupied Chenzhou, established a firm foothold, and started repairing the city wall. It has no intention of going south for the time being."

Shao Tingyu nodded and said no more, his eyes revealed an unconcealable sadness, he himself was an incomplete man, unable to have children, his nephew Shao Lingzhong, whom he admired and valued the most, had always been raised and educated by him as his own son.

As a result, in this battle, he was killed by the Qin army because he took the lead and vowed not to retreat. His head was hung on the top of Chenzhou city. Many people who could not escape saw it, and it was difficult to bury the whole body.

He taught his nephew to be loyal to the emperor and patriotism, and to protect the environment and the people, but now he regretted it for a while, maybe it was his teaching that killed his nephew.

"The wind is a little strong."

Shao Tingyu raised his hand to interrupt his followers: "No, I'm here to personally supervise the training. We must be ready to counterattack Chenzhou at any time. Time waits for no one. It will be even more difficult to build trenches and fortresses when the Qin army has a firm foothold."

"However, the food and salaries given by the imperial court may not be enough to fight a big war. If there is a fight, there will be too much to eat and drink. This year, His Majesty had a dream. very big”

"If the food and salary are not enough, I will supplement it from my private treasury. If it is not enough, I will find a way." Shao Tingyu sighed: "You don't understand, Chenzhou is the gateway, and the Northern Army is already strong. If there is Chenzhou again, they will go south to attack even more. Cheap!"

Shao Tingyu took a sip from his sapphire teacup while saying: "In any case, Chenzhou must not be lost, and we must not leave the Northern Dynasty with a weak and deceitful image to breed their ambitions, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

As for Your Majesty, as for the imperial court... Alas, I will explain the situation in an e-mail. "
