Chapter 95
Although Da Song is half gone, Da Song is still Da Song, and Da Song is still surnamed Zhao.

And just the remaining half is enough for Shiyi to come to court.

Plus the emperor... Everyone understands that the emperor needs something to prove that his imperial prestige still exists and his grace is mighty.

What you can't get from the Jinren, you can get it from other small countries in another way, which is actually the same.

Since Lin'an was established as the capital, the various countries have paid a tribute every year, or a tribute every few years. Not to mention continuous exchanges, but indeed there has been no interruption.

This is also the reason why many native southerners are confused.

Even in the eyes of some people, the decline of the Song Dynasty has receded, and now there is a sign of ZTE.

Only when people from the Kingdom of Jin come, will everyone wake up a little bit and find out:

Oh, it turns out that we are not number one in the world.

Today is the time for everyone to wake up.

Golden man, here we come again.

They just came here two years ago, before the edict of the peace talks between the two countries was spread all over the country, it was torn up by Wanyan Wushu.

In the past two years, the Song State's third-line army was victorious, and Yue Fei almost reached Bianjing.

Two years later, Zhao Guan's family still recalled the generals, and the Jin people still came to Lin'an.

It seems that a lot has changed in the past two years.
It was as if nothing had changed.

The departments in charge of reception in Song Dynasty include Banjing Pavilion, Huaiyuan Station, Duting Station, etc. All three are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites, but the specifications are different.

For example, the Banjing Pavilion specially set up under Gaoting is mainly responsible for entertaining people from the Kingdom of Jin. Other countries do not have this kind of treatment.

This place is fifty miles away from Lin'an, and any envoy from the Kingdom of Jin must settle here first.

Another example is that dealing with affairs of other countries is handled by the Sifang Pavilion; while matters concerning the Kingdom of Jin are handled by Guoxin.

After the news that the Jin envoy was coming was confirmed, the Guoxin Institute sent three waves of officials to hold a banquet in the state capital along the road.

When we arrived at Lin'an, it was already the fourth banquet.

In fact, the emperor didn't have to hurry back. If he wanted to, he could enjoy the scenery at sea.

Because according to the rules, the Jin envoys entered the Banjing Hall on the first day, and arrived at the Duting Station in the city on the second day. The next few days were when the emperor received them.

But Liu Bang didn't know so many rules, he just wanted to clarify things with them earlier, so that other people could prepare.

Naturally, it's not just the emperor who is anxious, but also Lord Qin.

The first day was arranged by Su Fu, the former envoy of He Jinzhengdan who also served as a concurrent post, which was already enough face, but the Prime Minister didn't think it was enough, so he insisted on coming today.

In this way, Zhang Tonggu, the Dajin Zhengshi who came this time, an old acquaintance of the people of Song Dynasty, and an old friend of Qin Xiangye, was overjoyed.

Qin Huizhi's place has always been the place with the most oil and water. If he can receive his tribute on the first day, his trip will be half successful.

However, this also made Zhang Tonggu a little frustrated... He had to stay in Lin'an for fifteen days, but he lost hope on the first day.

In any case, the representatives of the Song and Jin countries started their meeting in harmony.

"Brother Le hasn't seen him for two years, but he still looks handsome now."

The envoys of the two countries walked under the Gao Pavilion, Zhang Tonggu was three years older than Qin Hui, so it is no problem for Qin Xiangye to call him that.

But in this case, it is a bit out of proportion.

Of course, Master Qin has lost a lot of sense, and he doesn't care about it.

But... During the last peace talks, it was originally agreed to give Henan and Shanxi to the Song State, but as soon as Zhang Tonggu returned, he suggested to Wanyan Zongqian:

Before the Song people are ready, quickly take back the two lands.

In addition, this time Wanyan Wushu invaded the south, Wanyan Zongpan and others who killed the master first, and Qin Hui's two masters in the Kingdom of Jin—Tallan Lord and who were killed by Wanyan Wushu. A few years also died,

No matter how Qin Hui is to Jin, he is also from Song Dynasty after all, isn't he?

He didn't avoid suspicion, Zhang Tonggu still had to do superficial work:

"President Qin is absurd."

This sentence alone seemed extremely unfamiliar.

Qin Hui already had something on his mind, but now his heart sank to the bottom of the valley. Regardless of the eyes of the Minister of Song behind him, he grabbed Zhang Tonggu's hand and asked:

"I wonder if His Majesty the Great Jin Emperor is in good health?"

"Hmm...Your Majesty is safe."

Qin Xiangye smiled and said: "Fortunately, fortunately! I don't know if the fourth prince is healthy or not? Back then, he was lucky enough to host a banquet for the fourth prince. Hino always remembers the kindness of the fourth prince, dare not forget, dare not forget!"

"Pooh!"

Su Fu spat on the ground, clasped his fists at several people and said:
"Recently, reading has damaged my throat. Everyone, please rest first. We will have a banquet tonight."

With that said, he flicked his long sleeves, and the old man walked away.

Zhang Tonggu, and the envoy Jin who followed couldn't help laughing, but seeing Master Qin as if nothing had happened, there was no embarrassment on his face.

I haven't seen him for two years, but Qin Hui's superficial skills have deepened a bit, making Zhang Tonggu feel ashamed.

"The fourth prince is also Ankang...he also wants to meet you!"

Hearing that his address had changed, Prime Minister Qin heaved a sigh of relief, and then asked about other nobles of the Kingdom of Jin whom he knew.

Slowly upward from Gaoting, we have reached the cool shade in the middle of the mountain.

Zhang Tonggu was getting old, and he had to deal with Qin Hui's problems all the time... This journey made him gasp for a long time.

After Qin Xiangye asked more than a dozen big gold nobles, Zhang Tonggu couldn't bear it anymore:
"Meet it, don't you want to ask how your emperor is doing?"

Qin Hui was taken aback for a moment, but the accompanying officials from the Ministry of Rites became a little excited when they heard this.

"How about my courtship to the Holy Emperor Xiaociyuan... Please let Zhang Zhengshi tell me!"

Seeing them constantly bowing and bowing around him, Zhang Tonggu paused, and finally burst out laughing:
"Okay! That's great! My lord, the benevolent lord, has not already conferred the title of Lord Hunde as the King of Tianshui County, and the Duke of Chonghun as the Duke of Tianshui County... Hahaha"

The two people he was talking about were the two emperors of the Song Dynasty who were taken captive to the north. After hearing this, all the officials of the Song Dynasty were angry, sad, and sad. For a while, many people cried bitterly.

Only Qin Xiangye was still echoing: "Brother Le's words are reasonable, His Majesty the Great Jin Emperor is merciful, merciful."

Zhang Tonggu is used to dealing with Han people... In other words, he was originally a Han Chinese and knew the Han people quite well.

He didn't think that what would happen to them if he said this, but after all, he was here to delay the attack, so there was no need to provoke the people of Song Dynasty.

So he stopped laughing and said the first important thing about Lin'an:
"At the meeting, I'm here according to the emperor's edict, and what I'm doing is a great event of good relations between the two countries..."

Qin Hui couldn't help nodding: "Brother Le has worked hard, hard work."

"It's not hard, it's just that I came all the way south and met some people who don't see Jin and Song Dynasty getting along well."

Qin Xiangye was furious when he heard the words, and there were almost no officials in the court, but he didn't want them to go to the state and county, and they still wanted to make trouble!

Hastily asked: "I don't know who is the villain? Brother Le, you can tell Yu Hui, and Hui will definitely report to the officials and punish him for the crime of disturbing the imperial court!"

These words were filled with righteous indignation, Zhang Tonggu winked at others, and soon, a man with disheveled hair and scars all over his body was brought up.
