"Is Li Yan really a subject of your Song State? Is the Xijing area really your Song State's?"

Hearing this, Wang Fu's heart skipped a beat, "Could it be that they already know about Li Yan's roots? The Jurchens are so well-informed in such an isolated place."

Wang Fu, it can also be said that most of the current ruling class in the Song Dynasty underestimated the Jurchens too much.

The Jurchens actually attached great importance to intelligence gathering.

It can be said that the Jurchens were able to establish the Jin Kingdom and defeat the Liao Kingdom, including the subsequent destruction of the Northern Song Dynasty, largely due to their emphasis on intelligence collection.

This nation is actually very powerful and good at fighting, but they rarely fight randomly. Before fighting every battle, they first find out the situation of their opponents before they fight.

Moreover, they know how to learn from each other's strengths and learn from their experiences and lessons.

Therefore, don't think that the Jurchen's current momentum is all due to fighting.

In addition, their political level is also very high.

Especially the gold master Wanyan Aguda.

He is a political genius - when it is time to fight, he makes a decisive move; Living with him in the same era is the sorrow of Yelu Yanxi and Zhao Ji, who vividly set off Wanyan Aguda's brilliance and prowess.

Who is that speaker?
His name is Wanyan Yinshuke, and he is also known as Wanyan Yinshu brother and Wanyan Yinshu cutie. This man is very extraordinary, he can lead the army and fight, and he also understands politics.

His leadership ability, in a few words.

This person is one of the famous generals who founded the Kingdom of Jin, and he participated in several battles between the Kingdom of Jin and the Kingdom of Liao.

If history does not change, a few years later, Song State's famous general Zhong Shizhong (that is, the small Zhongxianggong in the Water Margin) will die at his hands, and the Song State and Zhong Shidao (that is, the old Zhongxianggong in the Water Margin) are not the same. The famous general Yao Gu's army was defeated by him again.

Politically.

At the beginning, when Wanyan A Guda had just succeeded to the throne, he and Xi Gunai were ordered to go to the Liao Kingdom.

After he came back, he told Wanyan Aguda that Emperor Tianzuo was neglected in political affairs, Khitan had been disintegrated, and other political affairs, and urged the conquest of Liao Dynasty.

This is how Jin Guo is today.

History if not changed.

After Jin Guo occupied the Yanjing area, he stayed behind in Yanjing.

Wan Yan Zonghan crusade against Zhao Gou, and he guarded the important city of Taiyuan.

He has always done the work of Baodajun Jiedushi and Tongzhongshumen.

Later, he was promoted to Zhongshu Ling (Prime Minister).

Finally, he was named King of Shu.

Looking at Wanyan Yinshu's life, he is definitely a first-class character.

The main reason why Wanyan Yinshu came to Bianliang, Tokyo this time is that Wanyan Aguda keenly felt that the appearance of Li Yan might ruin the great situation of the Kingdom of Jin. Aguda didn't know what was going on with their ally of the Kingdom of Jin, the Kingdom of Song. He hadn't heard from them as soon as they signed the covenant, and the envoys sent by the Kingdom of Jin to the Kingdom of Song hadn't returned for more than half a year.

In addition, one of Li Yan's banners is to be the Xuanfu envoy of Dasong Yunzhong Road.

Therefore, Wanyan Aguda sent Wanyan Yinshu to clarify these matters, and waited for the opportunity to sign a new covenant with Song State that would be more powerful for Jin State.

Wang Fu looked at Wanyan Yinshuke and asked, "Who are you?"

He Lu introduced Wanyan Yinshuke and said: "This is Wanyan Yinshuke, the new plenipotentiary envoy sent by our Dajin Kingdom to represent our Dajin Emperor."

Wang Fu's face sank, and he said, "Why don't the envoys take the normal route, and sneak around."

Wanyan Yinshu said: "Because I am afraid that I will be put under house arrest by your Song Kingdom just like the envoys sent by my Dajin Kingdom before."

Speaking of this matter, Wanyan Yinshu Ke, it should be said that Jurchen was extremely angry and detained envoys for no reason. Is this also like the actions of a civilized country?
Many Jin people thought that Song Guo wanted to sever diplomatic relations with Jin Guo.

Even Wanyan Aguda asked the ministers: "Does Song have the intention of severing diplomatic relations by neglecting the envoy of our country?"

Later, Wanyan Zonghan said: "Song State repeatedly sent envoys here, and there should be no intention of breaking off diplomatic relations. I think it is better to send someone to have a look, and find out what is going on by the way."

This is how the Wanyan silver technique can be used.

Wang Fu also knew that they did this wrong, but this is what Zhao Ji meant, what did you ask him to say?

Wang Fu could only say: "My Song Dynasty has a lot of things recently, and the officials really don't have time to meet the two envoys, so they stayed for a while."

Wanyan Yinshu, who has been in the Song Dynasty for a while, how could he not know that this was all Wang Fu's excuse?

You know, a few days ago he saw with his own eyes Zhu Xi transporting the four-foot-tall Taihu Lake stone into the city. In order to transport this huge stone into the city, the Song people even demolished the city gate. , Song Lord sealed the stone "Pan Guhou".

The Lord Song has time to seal a stone as a marquis, so why don't he have time to meet their envoys from the Kingdom of Jin?
This is clearly despising their Dajin Kingdom.

Wanyan Yinshu said: "The Dazai is talking about the rebellion of Tian Hu, Wang Qing and Fang La?"

How can Wang Fu be an idler if he can sit on the position of being under one person and above ten thousand people and governing the entire Song Dynasty?
From Wanyan Yinshu's words, Wang Fu judged that Wanyan Yinshu should have understood all the situations.

On this basis, Wanyan Yinshu could still meet Wang Fu, which meant that there was still room for discussion between the two countries.

Therefore, Wang Fu straightened his body, but he did not answer Wanyan Yinshuke's question, or it could be said that he acquiesced to Wanyan Yinshuke's question, and said, "I don't know why the ambassador came to our country of Song?"

Political masters all understand one truth, that is to seek common ground while reserving differences, and only then can progress be made. Therefore, Wanyan Yinshu can temporarily ignore the past, and said: "Dazai, look at this."

After finishing speaking, Wanyan Yinshu pushed a piece of paper to Wang Fu.

Wang Fu picked up the paper and looked at it, his brows were furrowed!

This payment document can also be said to be an ultimatum, and its meaning is very simple: the Jin army is restricted to withdraw from Yundi within three days, otherwise they will meet with each other.

While Wang Fu was reading the paper, Wanyan Yinshuke's voice also sounded: "At the beginning, when Zhao Liangsi was envoy to our Great Jin Kingdom, he made an agreement with our Jin Kingdom on behalf of your Song Kingdom. Gubeikou marched to attack Xijing, and your soldiers and horses from the State of Song marched from Xiongzhou to Baigou to attack Yanjing. You must not violate the contract. We, the Kingdom of Jin, sent troops to attack Xijing according to the agreed time. Attacked Yanjing, and Li Yan also asked us to withdraw from Xijing. In addition, Li Yan also captured the Lord of Liao, and took the gold and silver treasures of the Lord of Liao, concubines, and the jade seal of the Liao Kingdom, the crown of the emperor, the jade book, the gold The emperor's ceremonial guards such as seals, chariots, and Fajia are all his own. At the beginning, our two countries had an agreement, and all these belonged to our Dajin Kingdom. The country made peace, but Li Yan released the captured Liao Lord, so that the Liao Lord gathered tens of thousands of Mongols and united with the Xixia people to continuously harass the land of our Dajin Kingdom... How does Song Dynasty explain these things?"
