Monument Yangmen

Chapter 724 Double Dragon Club? (There will be an update tonight! Big brothers, the little one will have a holiday the day after tomorrow...)
Exactly how Empress Dowager Xiao and Brother Yeluxiu are going to teach Zhao Guangyi a lesson, no one knows except the two of them.

After the three of Zhao Pu returned to Tongtai Pass, they hurried to the camp where Zhao Guangyi temporarily stayed.

The only complete house in Tongtai Pass is said to have been built when Yang Si was stationed at Tongtai Pass.

In the middle of the room was a large dragon bed, which was dismantled from Zhao Guangyi's dragon bed. At the moment Zhao Guangyi was crawling on the bed, listening to Zhao Pu's detailed account of his meeting with the Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom with a pale face.

"Your Majesty, Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom said that this time the Song and Liao countries have signed an alliance under the city, and they need to discuss it face-to-face with Your Majesty."

After Zhao Pu finished speaking, he bowed and stepped aside.

Zhao Guangyi crawled on the dragon bed, his pale face looked serious, and he asked feebly: "I have already entrusted Aiqing with full power to deal with the matter of my Da Song and the Liao Kingdom signing the alliance under the city. meet me?"

Zhao Pu narrowed his muddy eyes and said in a low voice: "I don't know, the old minister. The Empress Dowager Xiao has said something beforehand. Whenever she agrees to the conditions, she must have a face-to-face interview with Her Majesty. If we don't agree, they will immediately attack Tongtai Pass."

Zhao Guangyi gritted his teeth when he heard the words, and said unwillingly: "So, that woman Xiao Zhuo forced me to meet her. But I have no choice?"

The majestic ruler of the Song Dynasty, who is in charge of the land that is not lost to the Liao State, is now being forced to this position by the Liao State, not to mention how uncomfortable Zhao Guangyi is.

Zhao Guangyi's eyes fell on Zhao Pu and the others, seeing their eyes watching their noses and noses watching their hearts, they closed their eyes and said helplessly: "Go and tell Xiao Zhuo, I promised to talk to her..."

By now.

Zhao Guangyi had no choice but to go into battle shirtless.

All the courtiers under him pretended to be dead and pretended to be wood. They couldn't come up with any ideas, so he could only let the Liao people lead him by the nose.

"Your Majesty Shengming..."

Seeing that Zhao Guangyi agreed to come forward for peace talks in person, all the ministers breathed a sigh of relief, saluted and shouted Shengming.

After the routine, Zhao Pu spoke again. He hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, apart from meeting you, the Empress Dowager Xiao also wants Yang Yansi to attend the signing of the alliance between the two countries."

"Yang Yansi?!"

Zhao Guangyi repeated Yang Qi's name, and a vicious flash of death flashed in his eyes, which was fleeting.

Now that form is better than people, Zhao Guangyi naturally has to endure it, pretending to be like a normal person.

"Since Empress Dowager Xiao wants to meet our unicorn talent from the Great Song Dynasty, let her meet her. This will also allow Empress Dowager Xiao to take the opportunity to see the demeanor of my Great Song literati.

Zhao Aiqing, it's up to you to discuss this matter with Yang Yansi..."

Zhao Pu bit the bullet and nodded in agreement.

After leaving Zhao Guangyi's temporary residence, he quickly searched for Yang Qi in the camp.

When he found Yang Qi, Yang Qi was having a drink with Cao Bin and Zhao Defang.

Although the battle outside the city was imminent, it still couldn't affect the three people's joy of drinking.

When Zhao Pu saw the three of them drinking and having fun, he was so angry that he rushed forward angrily, snatched the jug from Yang Qi's hand, took two sips, and said angrily: "The enemy You are sharpening your knives just outside the city, but you have the leisure to eat wine here?"

Yang Qi snatched back the wine jug from Zhao Pu, poured it down, and found that Zhao Pu had already emptied it, so he threw down the wine bottle helplessly, and said with emotion: "Life is alive, of course we must enjoy ourselves in time. The enemy is just outside the city , You guys can't beat it.

Instead of worrying about this and that.It's better to have a drink to your heart's content, and when the enemy comes to kill you, you can also have a hearty battle.

After all, whether this battle can continue, whether to continue fighting, the choice is in the hands of the Liao people, not you and me.

So... what's the use of worrying? "

"Humph!"

Zhao Pu snorted coldly, and said dissatisfied: "Whether this battle should continue or not, the Liao people gave up making a choice, but left the right of choice in our hands.

The old man was ordered to go to the camp of the Liao Kingdom, and the Liao Kingdom had already agreed to the peace talks under the persuasion of the old man.

However, Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom had two conditions. "

"Has the Liao Kingdom agreed to peace talks?"

"Empress Xiao appeared at Tongtai Pass?"

Two voices sounded at the same time, the former was full of surprise, and the latter was full of astonishment.

Cao Bin was pleasantly surprised, and Yang Qi was shocked.

For Cao Bin, being able to negotiate peace means that as long as a certain price is paid, everyone here can go back safely.

For Yang Qi, the sudden appearance of Empress Dowager Xiao at Tongtai Pass was intriguing.

Facing the questioning of the two, Zhao Pu said: "It is because the Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom appeared at Tongtai Pass that we have the opportunity to have peace talks. If there is only the evil star Yeluxiu outside the pass, I am afraid that the old man will have already been dismembered by him." block."

Hearing this, Yang Qi lowered his head and meditated secretly.

Cao Bin then asked: "The Liao Kingdom agreed to the peace talks, and also put forward two conditions. What conditions?"

Zhao Pu said seriously: "The Empress Dowager Xiao asked to have an interview with Her Majesty, and also asked Huhou to be included in the negotiations."

"Don't go!"

Yang Qi, who was thinking about the conspiracy of Empress Dowager Xiao's appearance at Tongtai Pass, raised her head decisively when she heard Zhao Pu's words, and firmly refused.

Although history has experienced many deviations under the influence of Yang Qi.

But the general picture of events does not seem to have changed.

Empress Dowager Xiao invited Zhao Guangyi for an interview, and the young emperor of Liao Kingdom must be present.

Isn't this the legendary Ssangyong Club?

Those who are familiar with this passage know it.

The Ssangyong Society is a huge pit, a huge pit set by the Liao people.

In Yang Qi's mind, that passage appeared involuntarily.

"My eldest brother died in front of the king of Song, my second brother was killed by a dagger, and my third brother was trampled by a horse and his bones disappeared..."

The eldest brother, second brother, and third brother in this passage refer to Yang Da, Yang Er, and Yang San.

The reason for this tragedy is because of the Ssangyong Club.

In the Romance, the people of Liao proposed the Double Dragon Club, and Zhao Guangyi was forced to agree.

But he was afraid that the Liao people would use some tricks, so he asked Yang Da, who looked very similar to Zhao Guangyi, to pretend to be him, and went to the meeting, which also led to the tragic death of the Yang family brothers.

Now because of Yang Qi's relationship, many brothers of the Yang family are not here, so they have escaped this real murder.

However, although the Yang family brothers escaped this murder, it does not mean that this murder did not exist.

Since the Liao people proposed the Ssangyong Club, there must be arrangements.

How could Yang Qi, who knew the ending, rush in and die.

Although Yang Qi is highly skilled in martial arts and has the ability to defeat thousands of people, it doesn't mean that he can escape under the heavy arrangements of the Liao people.

There are hundreds of thousands of Liao troops outside Guancheng.

If Yang Qi really had the ability to kill hundreds of thousands of Liao troops, why would he need troops from the Northwest and South?

Without diamonds, we will never do porcelain work.

Yang Qi resolutely rejected Zhao Pu.

Zhao Pu's face turned ugly for a moment, "Huhou, it's about the lives of tens of thousands of people in Tongtai Pass, about the safety of His Majesty, about the entire country of Song Dynasty, how can you sit idly by?"

Yang Qi rolled his eyes at Zhao Pu, "Then what? What does this have to do with me?"

"Forehead!"

Zhao Pu was stunned and speechless.

Yup!

What does this have to do with Yang Qi?
Yang Qi sits on the four northwestern prefectures and is about to become the seven northwest prefectures, comparable to one-seventh of the Great Song Dynasty, enough to establish a country.

What does Song's survival have to do with him?
Since Song's survival has nothing to do with him, what does Zhao Guangyi's safety and the lives of tens of thousands of people in Tongtai Pass have to do with him?

However, even so, Zhao Pu must continue to persuade Yang Qi.

The Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom had a very tough attitude, and Zhao Guangyi and Yang Qi had to come forward. If there was one less person, he would not bet on whether the Empress Dowager Xiao would get mad.

Zhao Pu's face changed three colors in an instant, from white to blue, then from blue to purple, he said to Yang Qi with a little pleading: "Huhou, even if you don't care about the lives of everyone in Tongtai Pass, you have to be punished by Song Dynasty." The common people think about it.

Once the peace talks fail, the Liao people will inevitably invade the south on a large scale. At that time, it will be the people of the Song Dynasty who will suffer. "

Yang Qi frowned, feeling a little annoyed, "You use the people of the world to suppress me? Why? I blame me for the current situation? I also blame the people who failed to keep the Great Song Dynasty?

Who licked their faces and collected taxes from the people, but couldn't protect them?And who took the people's money, brought the people's heirs, set foot on the battlefield, and finally buried them in the Liao Kingdom?
Is there any responsibility here?And why should I wipe your ass for you?
What do I owe you? "

After asking a series of questions, Zhao Pu couldn't say a word in a daze.

Does Yang Qi owe Da Song anything?

No!

Conversely, Da Song already owed Yang Qi a lot.

Zhao Pu lowered his head in shame.

Cao Bin and Zhao Defang also lowered their heads in shame.

The reason why they were ashamed was not because Da Song owed Yang Qi a lot.

It was Yang Qi's sentence, "Who licked his face and collected taxes from the people, but couldn't protect them."

Here, not only the royal family of the Zhao family, but also civil and military officials like them.

All their food and clothing expenses, including the expenses they spent on going out to prostitutes, fighting for blessings, etc., are all taxes from the people.

It's all of their fault that it's the way it is now.

But among all the people, Yang Qi was not included.

Zhao Pu raised his head to look at Cao Bin with an ugly face. Cao Bin seemed to feel Zhao Pu's gaze, raised his head, and said solemnly: "Since Qilang doesn't want to go, there is a reason why he doesn't want to go. This old man won't use emotion to force him, you Don't look at the old man."

Zhao Pu looked at Zhao Defang again.

Zhao Defang said with a dry smile: "My king and Yang Yansi are not close friends, so I can't persuade you..."

Neither of these two people was willing to help persuade Yang Qi.

Zhao Pu felt that it would be a waste of time for him to talk to Yang Qi any more.

After taking a deep look at Yang Qi, Zhao Pu let out a long sigh, and went back to report to Zhao Guangyi.

After Zhao Guangyi got the news, even though his heart was full of anger, he couldn't speak it out.

in the evening.

Zhao Pu was ordered to go out of Tongtai Pass again, to the Liao army camp, and talk to Empress Dowager Xiao.

After learning that Yang Qi would not appear, Empress Dowager Xiao expressed regret, but she didn't grasp that it was wrong.

This made Zhao Pu breathe a sigh of relief.

After an agreement, the two parties agreed that three days later, the conclusion of the covenant under the city would be held on a flat open space outside the city.

The reason why three days are vacated is to allow both parties time to prepare.

It is natural to be cautious about involving the heads of two superpowers.

The two countries should not only send an equal number of guards to guard the place of the alliance, but also dispatch civilian craftsmen to build a high platform in the place of the alliance for the purpose of the alliance.

In addition, all hidden dangers to the safety of the alliance must be cleared away.

After confirming the alliance time.

Zhao Pu borrowed [-] soldiers from Cao Bin to serve as guards again. He also wanted to borrow Zamahe warriors from Yang Qi, but Yang Qi refused.

Ten thousand soldiers and horses left Tongtai Pass, rushed to the place of the alliance, and after cleaning up a series of wild animals such as wolves, tigers and leopards, they stationed there.

After that, there were civilian husbands, guarded by soldiers and horses, who rushed to the place of the alliance and began to build a high platform.

There are three high platforms that need to be built.

One is a high platform for the emperor, the other is a high platform for civil and military ministers, and the other is a high platform for worshiping heaven.

In ancient alliances, there were not many third-party witnesses, so most of the alliances would designate the party witnessed by the third party as God.

The emperors sat on the high platform closest to the high platform for offering sacrifices to heaven, acting as clay bodhisattvas.

Civil and military ministers negotiate terms and conditions on the next level of high platform.

After the two parties have reached an agreement, it will be handed over to the emperors of both parties, and they will use the seal.

Make three copies, keep one for each, and burn the last one to God.

Three days passed in a flash.

A high platform with a height of three feet was built, on which was placed a ritual vessel jointly cast by the two countries.

Around the three-foot high platform, there are two one-foot high platforms, and then two four-foot high platforms.

Early morning on the fourth day.

Everyone in Tongtai Pass woke up, except for a few people watching Zhao Guangyi go to the alliance, the rest of them accompanied him.

In addition to the 1 soldiers who had been sent to garrison the place of the alliance, Cao Bin and Li Jilong each brought another [-] soldiers to guard Zhao Guangyi's Long Yu.

It has to be said that Zhao Guangyi still attaches great importance to his dragon and majesty.

Even if he fled in embarrassment after being beaten before, when he wanted to meet the head of the enemy country again, his gorgeous accompanying outfit appeared in front of people again.

The battle of more than 2 escorts is far less than the previous battle of 10 escorts.

But also quite prosperous.

Just like that, Zhao Guangyi crawled inside the dragon and was sent to the place of the alliance.

On the city wall, Yang Qi looked at Zhao Guangyi's Long Huan who was going away, grinned, bowed his head and said to himself, "This time, no one will send you to death for you, if you want to die, you can only die by yourself..."

"Who is going to die?"

Zhao Defang did not know when she appeared behind Yang Qi.

Seeing Zhao Defang, Yang Qi was taken aback, and said in astonishment, "You didn't go to the alliance with you?"

Zhao Defang pursed her lips, "Your Majesty was worried about this king, so he let him stay at Tongtai Pass to guard, and he was sent a bunch of civil servants to watch over him."

Yang Qi smiled, "This may be a good thing for you."

"how to say?"

"Maybe, there are some things that we don't need to do, the Liao people will help us."

"You...you...you mean..."
