After Shao Song

Chapter 66

The words are divided into two parts. While Zhao Guan's family was dealing with these messy things, thousands of miles away, Husi Oruduo (now part of Kyrgyzstan), although it was spring by the Suiye River, it could not hide the solitary smoke of the desert. It was the first time to come here. Here, Li Qiong walked out of the Western Liao Palace, which had a strong Islamic style on the outside but was no different from the Liao Kingdom in the Central Plains on the inside. He was riding a horse and walking in front. Looking at the scenery of the royal city that he had never seen before, he couldn't help but feel a little literary and full of emotions. .

The accompanying envoy, Liang Jiaying, who came back from Hebei, didn't know what he was thinking, but said with emotion: "This is a good place in the Western Regions, Yelu Dashi, oh no, now the Lord of Xiliao has a good vision."

Hearing these words, Li Qiong laughed and said: "What Ambassador Liang said is because the leader of the Western Liao Kingdom traveled thousands of miles and persevered to establish such a big country, and all the small countries in the Western Regions surrendered. How could he have poor vision? If not, he Why are you willing to buy these Jurchens from us for real money? It’s not because this place is vast and sparsely populated, and most of them are Turks. If you want to solidify your foundation, you have to have the old race of Liao."

Yes, he came specifically to escort these [-] captives in exchange for money, but the capital of Western Liao kept moving westward, and he brought a large group of people with him, so he walked for several months and arrived only after the New Year. here.Of course Yelu Dashi was very happy about this, but he was not a gold mine operator. After collecting all kinds of materials for half a month, everyone was happy.

Liang Jiaying blushed. He had bought all the Jinshi places. Not to mention facing Zhao Ding and Zhang Jun, even facing the educated handsome ministers, he felt a little lacking in confidence. He quickly made up for it: "Yes, but the younger brother followed him back then." Hu Jinglue (Hu Hongxiu) went on an envoy, and later served as the magistrate of Huangzhou for many years. He knew best that although the leader of the Western Liao Kingdom was considered a figure, he really admired our official family. Not only did he go to Lanzhou City specifically to find the magistrate Suo when he set out to the west. They requested almost all the Di newspapers from the past, and specifically asked their officials stationed in the Lanzhou market to copy the Di newspapers and send them to the west all the way. Moreover, whenever there were business travelers in Tokyo, they would be invited to inquire about the officials' old affairs in detail. He Xinzhi, on the contrary, asked our embassies abroad without asking too many questions."

Li Qiong looked around at the business travelers in different costumes, and there was no dispute, and said with emotion: "This is the plan of this person. Fortunately, we have to go back. The officials once said that he will definitely see Yelu Dashi rampant in the Western Regions." Thousands of miles, you can also see the gradual decline of the country after him. In the past, Han Wu took the Western Regions and the Huns were destroyed. If there is a day, it is not impossible to take the Western Regions and sandwich Northern Xinjiang and Dingqingtang. I only hope that you and I can live to that day Bar."

Liang Jiaying was also overwhelmed by his heroic words for a moment, and the two chatted some more. When they returned to the embassy, ​​they heard about another strange imperial edict from Zhao Guan's family: to go to the Mogao Grottoes to copy and sculpt the Feitian statue, and to buy some more emeralds from the Western Regions. For Princess Shouchun and her hairpin.

Although the two of them felt that it was a bit rude regarding the princess, they did not dare to neglect it at all. They asked to see Yelu Dashi again the next day and expressed their request.

Yelu Dashi laughed loudly when he heard this. Under his golden crown and treasure belt, he could not hide his pride as a man from Yanzhao. He said: "Such a trivial matter is worthy of the ambassador and the prince coming to see each other alone. Since the two countries are brothers, the princess is also like me. How can nieces and uncles give gifts and still accept money? Wait for you to negotiate directly with the Nanmian officials (officials of Liao State's administration of Han people). Not only emeralds and statues of gods and Buddhas, but also twenty Hetian jade ornaments. Just to add a head so that the young lady can play with it and remember Uncle Yelu’s wishes.”

He was so polite and generous, so of course the two of them could only say thank you, and the host and guest returned home enjoying themselves.

Just when they left, there was a sudden dissatisfaction in this Liao-style palace, but because Emperor Yelu Dashi had traveled thousands of miles to establish the country's prestige, they did not dare to be presumptuous in front of him.

But such a person as Yelu Dashi didn't even have to turn his eyelids to speak in the familiar Hebei Han dialect: "Yelu Yanshan, don't hold back what you want to say. Who of you here didn't accompany me through all the hard work? What's the matter?" Can't say it clearly?"

Yelu Yanshan was not polite. He stood up and saluted and said: "Your Majesty, it is okay for the two countries to agree to exchange my Khitan heritage for money. But the oath back then made it clear that although we regard the Song Dynasty as our superior country, we are also brothers. An alliance is not a slave. Why should the daughter of Zhao Guan's family come to our country to ask for gifts? Not to mention that the Mogao Grottoes are originally located in the six states of Hexi. Isn't this a test?"

Although Yelu Yanshan is also a member of the Khitan Yelu tribe, he is not a descendant of Abaoji. His original position in the Liao Kingdom was Tulu of the Chachila tribe.Chachila is a tribe on the Mongolian plateau, and Tulu is the official name.After the fall of Liao, he led his tribe to follow the Yelu Dashi thousands of miles westward, but he never forgot that he was from Liao.

As soon as he opened his mouth, some people had the courage to say, "If the six states in Hexi were not in my hands, I would not be able to even look at my homeland from afar in this life!"

There is nothing special about this statement, but it makes many elderly people feel sad. They are all nobles of the Liao Kingdom who were born in Linhuang and grew up in Yanyun. Although they have founded a country elsewhere, can they really forget the word hometown?
As the saying goes, there are thousands of miles of Yinshan Mountains and thousands of miles of sand, who will fight against the frost and beauty with green temples?

Yelu Dashi looked around at his ministers. It was fake that he didn't feel uncomfortable. However, as a conqueror of Central Asia recognized by the world as second only to Genghis Khan, he still made the most rational judgment.But just when he was about to speak, he suddenly heard Xiao Weili, the king of the North Courtyard, saying harshly: "That's the case, what can you all do to Zhao Guan's family? Are you also going to send someone to sneak into the Song Dynasty to assassinate him?"

Everyone choked when he said this. Xiao Heda, the envoy of the North Courtyard and his subordinate Xiao Heda, saw that everyone was dissatisfied and said hurriedly: "Everyone, I was originally an accomplice of Princess Nanxian. I have been in Xixia for more than 20 years, so I also fought with the Song Dynasty. After many years of dealing with each other, isn't what the king said right? Nowadays, the power of the Song Dynasty to destroy the Jin Dynasty still exists. Everyone has seen the abilities of Yue Fei, Wu Jie and Qu Duan, not to mention Han Shizhong, who is said to be unparalleled in the world. If we really fight, our country will be different. Speaking of the six states in Hexi, even the huge foundation of the Western Regions will probably have to be lost. Not to mention that what we are short of now is population. Only the Song State can give us this. If nothing else, as long as the Zhao Guan family refuses to make friends, we will be thousands of miles away. There are only 10,000+ Khitan people in the world, can you feel relieved?"

Another person added: "We don't have tea here, and we lack ironware. If the Lanzhou tea market is closed, it will be enough."

These are all true facts, no matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, they can only calm down on the face. At this time, Yelu Dashi can calmly say: "Okay, although I haven't met this official Zhao family much, I think I know him a little bit. Now His country is not stable, and he doesn't care about our six states in Hexi. If it is too much, the Khitan warriors are not made of mud, and now they are just a girl who has grown up. Is it worth your fuss to give some gifts? If you have this spirit, why not think about it How will the 5000 people be distributed?" This was a major matter, and everyone was concerned about their public and selfish interests, and they discussed it one after another, until after noon, when they saw the emperor's tired face, they left.

After everyone left, Yelu Dashi leaned on his seat tiredly. A graceful woman in her thirties was wearing a brocade robe, a traditional Khitan beaded necklace, coral earrings on her ears, and deerskin shoes. The boots are too different from the previous attire. If you look carefully, you can see that the characteristics of Khitan, Han, Western Regions, and grasslands can be revealed, which can be regarded as a great fusion of cultures.

After all, it makes sense that the Khitan had established a country in the north for hundreds of years and then established a country in the western regions. Not to mention, she looked pretty dressed up like this, showing off the maturity and elegance of a Hu girl.

Because he was too familiar with it, Yelu Dashi didn't bother to go around the bay and said directly: "The tower is not smokey, what do you think?"

The person who came was his queen, Xiao Ta Buyan. Although she was not Yelu Dashi's original spouse, she became a queen when Yelu Dashi first proclaimed sweat, and she had a pair of children, not to mention the tradition of the Liao Kingdom. The Queen Mother had it, so she could also have a say in national affairs.

They have been married for many years and have a good understanding of each other. Xiao Ta Buyan naturally knows what her husband means and considers it: "I think your majesty is right. The official from Zhao Song may be interested in the six states of Hexi, but not now, so I agree with you very much." . However, being manipulated by others is not a long-term solution. In the future,"

Yelu Dashi smiled bitterly and said: "I'm afraid it will be more difficult in the future. The tower is not smoke-free. I am more than ten years older than the official family of Zhao Song. If one day I am gone, the disparity in strength between the two countries will only get further. By then, we will no longer be the same family. Instead of pinching us, it even stuck our necks."

The afterlife of the prime ministers of the Song Dynasty ([-])

"Bah, you should have tasted this a long time ago." After waiting for more than a month for the official family to hear nothing new, the underworld staff suddenly showed them another projection of Yelu Dashi.

There is no one here who has not suffered from the idleness of those Khitan barbarians. Seeing them so deflated, it was as refreshing as drinking cold water in the dog days of summer. Fu Bi, who had never been very eye-catching, thought of those years when he was sent to the Liao Kingdom and felt angry. The first one couldn't help but curse.

Others were not to be outdone and denounced him one after another, as if they were back to the time when they were all-powerful.Ma Yingying was proud, and regardless of whether he would be targeted, he stroked his beard and said: "I just regret that I was in the southeast back then and never participated in the Jinhe League. When I saw the official crowning the Khitan child, why did I ask them to admit it?" For the Emperor of China, hey, it’s really a pity to think about it.”

What he said was so hateful.Even Zongze said to stay away from me.

However, Cao Cao used his deep hatred and ignored his jealousy and asked, "Why didn't Lu Zhongsu advise the officials to eliminate evil and help these thieves to establish a country in the Western Regions? The Han Dynasty conquered the Western Regions and consolidated China."

Zhang Shuye finally came out of the shadows and said, "The Guan family must have other plans. Yelu'er also knows that the Guan family is more than ten years younger than him. We just have to watch what happens in the future carefully, otherwise we will be rebellious. By doing this, I would have no shame to be reincarnated here."

His story really brought tears to those who heard about it, causing Wang Boyan to advise him, "Don't be like this, Mr. Zhongwen. I actually had high hopes for that evil disciple Qin Hui back then. Who knew he would forget his ancestors so many times? Now I think about it and poke my eyes out." All."

Although master and disciple are not considered to be like father and son these days, it is indeed embarrassing enough for the disciple who broke into the house and became a traitor who will be infamous for thousands of years.

Kou Zhun was the most grumpy and said: "Okay, okay, you are done. I hope to see more of the official power and convince the Khitan to regain Dali. If any of you want to reincarnate, hurry up and save space!" Anyway! He had no sons or disciples.

　After the Shao and Song Dynasties, naturally the southeast and northwest will be involved. These two chapters will involve the Western Liao Dynasty. I wonder if you will like it?Personally, I prefer the Yelu Dashi family.
