Chapter 741 Your Kang Wang has a good mother (please subscribe!)

...

The imperial palace is still the original palace, and the palace is still the original palace, but not only the emperor has changed, but even the dynasties have changed.

Walking on the familiar road, Zhao Mingcheng and other Song envoys felt that "things are different and people are different" in their hearts!
Following Wang Jieru's arrival at the Chongzheng Hall, Zhao Mingcheng and the Song envoys looked around and saw that the hall was full of hundreds of people.

And sitting directly above the main hall is a man in a yellow dragon robe. That man is not angry and majestic, and his body is shrouded in a domineering arrogance.

Needless to ask, Zhao Mingcheng and others also know that that person must be Li Yan, the emperor of Dazhong, who conquered Korea, destroyed Liao, recovered Yanyun, crushed Japan, expanded the land in the south of the country, and painted the pictures into the west.

but--

Because he was too far away, and Zhao Mingcheng's eyes were not very good, he couldn't see Li Yan's face clearly.

As Wang Jieru entered the hall, Zhao Mingcheng and other Song envoys saw many familiar faces, such as Tang Ke, the former Prime Minister of Zhao Song Dynasty, He Su, the former Prime Minister of Zhao Song Dynasty, Lu Haowen, the former letter to the Ministry of War of Zhao Song Dynasty, etc...

Although the official uniforms worn by these people are not as good as before, many of them are still in high positions. For example, Tang Ke is still one of the chief ministers, Wang Shiyong is the minister of the Ministry of Rites, and He Su is the deputy envoy of the third division.

Speaking of He Su, it is said that after He Su was rescued back then, he went on a hunger strike for seven days and had the will to die. Only then did He Su drink the rice porridge, and after recovering, he served as the deputy envoy of the third division to assist Jiang Jing in managing the wealth of the world.

At the beginning, most of the survivors of the Northern Song Dynasty were now officials in Dazhong. It is not an exaggeration to say that nearly half of the officials in the palace were officials from the original Zhao Song Dynasty.

Of course, there are some who are absent, like Zhang Shuye, Sima Pu, etc., are not among them.

Zhao Mingcheng couldn't help thinking: "At the beginning, if I didn't go south, would I be among them?"

Not long after, Zhao Mingcheng followed Wang Jieru to the hall, and then Wang Jieru saluted Li Yan: "Report to Your Majesty, the minister has brought the Song envoy."

Zhao Mingcheng then led a group of Song envoys to pay homage to Li Yan: "The foreign ministers are waiting to meet His Majesty!"

Li Yan said: "Exemption from courtesy."

Zhao Mingcheng waited for the Song envoy to hear the words, straightened up, and then looked at Li Yan—they wanted to see what kind of person this legendary man who has become the emperor of a big country now forced them to desperately seek peace, but Have three heads and six arms?

But at this glance, Zhao Mingcheng's pupils shrank immediately, and he was surprised: "It's him!"——Zhao Mingcheng immediately recognized that Li Yan was the young man who was by Li Qingzhao's side that day!

It's no wonder that Zhao Mingcheng recognized Li Yanlai immediately.

First of all, Li Yan's temperament is there, which is impressive.

Secondly, if there is a strange man next to his wife, who would not pay attention?
Zhao Mingcheng muttered in his heart: "How could he be Li Yan? Li Yan is 35-[-] at least now, how could he be so young? Also, why did he appear beside my wife?"

At this moment, the deputy envoy touched Zhao Mingcheng indiscriminately from behind.

Only then did Zhao Mingcheng realize that he had almost lost his sense of proportion and missed the important event, and then hurriedly said: "When the foreign ministers came, my king told us that both Dazhong and Dasong are countries dominated by Han people. Killing each other and teaching foreigners to take advantage of the situation, we should turn hostility into friendship, coexist peacefully, and even resist foreign invasion together. Therefore, please be kind to your majesty, and allow my family's king to be the emperor of Song Dynasty, and the two families will always be good friends and not invade each other..."

After hearing this, Li Yan said: "I am not an outsider with your family Kang Wang. If you look into it carefully, I am still his father. There is nothing that cannot be discussed between father and son."

As soon as Li Yan said this, many ministers couldn't help laughing, Zhao Mingcheng and others were ashamed, but they didn't dare to argue.

There is a degree in everything, but too much.

It's okay to laugh at Zhao Gou to suppress Song Shi's arrogance, but if there are too many, it will be boring, and it will appear petty, and it may backfire.

Therefore, Li Yan said again: "You have come from a long way, you might as well stay for a few more days, as for the peace negotiation, you can discuss it slowly at Shaozai Zhao Ding's mansion."

Afterwards, Li Yan rewarded Zhao Mingcheng and others with a lot of gold and silk, soap, spices, etc., and then asked Wang Jieru to take them down.

……

After leaving the palace, Wang Jieru said with emotion: "Your Kang Wang has a good mother!"

Zhao Mingcheng and other Song envoys couldn't help feeling a little bored when they heard the words, but in consideration of the overall situation, Zhao Mingcheng pinched his nose and asked, "Why did Lord Wang say that?"

Wang Jieru said: "Do you know that General Yang Yizhong and General Wang Yan wrote to the officials yesterday, opposing the peace talks, and they are willing to issue a military order to destroy your Southern Song Dynasty within three months?"

Zhao Mingcheng said in surprise: "There is such a thing?"

Wang Jieru said: "You don't know, two days ago, General Yang Yizhong defeated your Song general Liu Guangshi in Huaixi, and almost crossed the Yangtze River in one fell swoop. General Wang Yan has not had a chance to fight recently, so I really want to raise the army. Go south and destroy your Southern Song Dynasty in one fell swoop."

The reason why the Southern Song Dynasty wanted to negotiate peace was mainly because they were afraid that the [-] elites in the hands of Wang Yan and Wu Yan would go south!
If that is the case, it is really possible to wipe out the Southern Song Dynasty in one fell swoop!
but--

Wang Yan and the [-] troops in Wang Yan's hands are also the only established elite and only firefighting team in Dazhong. Once there is a need in Hedong or Yandi, they will immediately go to reinforce them. If Yang Yi in the south If Zhong suffered a serious setback, they would have to go to reinforce Yang Yizhong.

In addition, Wang Yan and the 3 army in Wang Yan's hands are also shouldering the heavy responsibility of defending the capital—besides the [-] army, the capital only has the Tabai Army and some auxiliary troops, such as the guard army, the communication army, and the amphibious army. Army and so on, the total strength is just over [-].

Therefore, it is impossible for Wang Yan and the [-] army in Wang Yan's hands to be easily mobilized.

However, this did not prevent Wang Jieru from using Wang Yan and the [-] troops in Wang Yan's hands to frighten Zhao Mingcheng.

Zhao Mingcheng is a literati and not a general, and he doesn't know how to fight at all, so he doesn't know the seriousness of it, so he said: "Fortunately, Your Majesty cares about the common people in the world, and he doesn't want to start a war lightly!"

Wang Jieru said: "Master Zhao really thought that it was because the officials were unwilling to lightly start the war that they agreed to negotiate peace with you in the Southern Song Dynasty?"

Zhao Mingcheng asked back: "Isn't it?"

Wang Jieru said: "The official family fought all their lives, from west to east, then from south to north, and then crossed the sea to conquer the central and southern regions, and now they have pacified the Central Plains. Do you think the official family will not want to start the war lightly?"

"This……"

Thinking of Li Yan's combat experience, Zhao Mingcheng also did not believe that Li Yan was a person who was unwilling to start a war lightly.

Wang Jieru said: "I just said that your King Kang has a good mother. I heard that she begged hard in front of the official family, and there were Concubine Xingkang and others helping to beg, so the official family released you. One horse."

After hearing Wang Jieru's words, Zhao Mingcheng and other Song envoys were all bored!

Seeing this, Wang Jieru said: "I know what you are thinking, but this is a major matter that concerns your life and death in the Southern Song Dynasty. You must not be stupid because of a few women."

While saying this, Wang Jieru gave Zhao Mingcheng a meaningful look!
Seeing this, Zhao Mingcheng was puzzled at first, but soon he thought of the scene where Li Yan and Li Qingzhao were standing together that day, and then thought: "Would that bitch get together with that traitor Li Yan and wear it for me?" A green hat, right?"
