The last conscience of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 190 Tough?

Why were the Xixia people keen on attacking the Song Dynasty?

Liang Xin was waiting for Bai E's answer.

Bai E walked further away, away from the back of the main hall, and said: "Our Song Dynasty is like a dandy, with wealth everywhere. When the Xixia people first came to Bianjing, they suddenly found that our Song Dynasty was richer than they imagined. Among them, there is even more money. There is a lot of money. When entertaining the envoys, a large number of jewelry and brocades were displayed, and the Xixia people were dumbfounded."

"The prosperity of Bianjing, the luxury of scholar-bureaucrats..."

"Then, when Li Yuanhao of Xixia, in order to stabilize his position, vacillated between the party rules and the Han rules, those who followed him in Xixia also saw that our Song Dynasty was strong on the outside and weak on the inside. They were moved and thought that Song Dynasty was too rich and they should take the money back."

"Li Yuanhao raised troops to satisfy these people and support him as king."

After listening, Liang Xin said: "Well, showing off wealth requires capital. In addition to having money to show off, you must also be able to maintain the family fortune."

"Xin Ke'er, that's the right answer." Bai E first agreed with Liang Xin's words.

What Liang Xin was thinking in her heart was whether the Jin Kingdom would have the same mentality in the future.

definitely is.

It is estimated that the Jin Kingdom went south to attack the Song Dynasty because of this mentality, and it is also very likely that it was also because Aguda's younger brother's throne was unstable, and it was also to covet the wealth of the Song Dynasty.

Bai E said again: "Why are you dressed like this today?"

Liang Xin replied: "The Liao Kingdom is now about the same as us. In An Tao's words, the Liao and Song Dynasties are competing to see who is worse."

"By the way, it's better than bad." After saying this, Bai E waved his hand gently and left with the young eunuchs.

He believed that Liang Xin completely understood what he wanted to convey.

Better than bad, Bai E is not afraid.

No matter who is worse, because Liang Xin is a very ambitious person, and it is impossible to be satisfied with this small victory over Xixia.

Just talking about the northwest, Liang Xin's ambition is probably as far away as Shixian's birthplace.

Therefore, only if the Liao Kingdom and the Song Dynasty competed together, and the Song Dynasty quietly became stronger, could the Song Dynasty return the birthplace of the Shixian to within the national borders.

Soon, Xiao Yuanfeng saw Liang Xin.

Rumor has it that the Emperor of Song Dynasty was his favorite playmate.

Speaking of playing.

This person dares to say that he is the best in the world.

Emperor Song, who claimed to be the best in the world in piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting, did not compete for the world's best in playing.

It was he who improved Cuju.

Cuju has become a game with a larger audience. There is an underground lottery in Bianjing City. No one knows who runs it. You can guess the results of the Cuju competition and play it by year.

At the maximum rate, one penny can win up to a hundred pence.

Song laws prohibit gambling.

Kaifeng Prefecture has never checked this lottery shop, which inevitably makes people wonder, who is the big bookmaker behind this lottery shop?
Liang Xin, followed by a long list of young eunuchs.

As soon as this group of people came in, the fragrance in the room instantly increased several times.

Bai E, just sprayed more than two taels of fragrant powder on these little eunuchs. This does not include the fragrant sachets hung on each person's body.

Xiao Yuanfeng turned sideways and looked at Liang Xin with a hint of contempt.

Liang Xin turned sideways at [-] degrees, tilted her head, and looked at Xiao Yuanfeng with her eyes.

In Xiao Yuanfeng's eyes, he saw a 17-year-old boy who was arrogant and arrogant. He was covered in jewels and treasures. Not to mention anything else, just the fine silk robe he wore was worth millions. It was woven with gold threads, inlaid with gems and jade.

The son of a small eunuch, he seemed to be a junior official from the eighth rank.

Even his 100-year salary could not afford to buy just this outfit.

Not to mention, the group of young eunuchs behind them, each of them wore clothes no worse than those of the nobles in Bianjing City. That birdcage...

Xiao Yuanfeng's eyes narrowed.

It turned out to be a dragon-headed hook, which was a royal item.

Although Liang Xin was leaning sideways, her heart was quite uneasy.

Fast heartbeat.

Because Liang Xin knew that this was a quite extraordinary confrontation.

Xiao Yuanfeng.

There are not many records about the Song Dynasty, but to be able to come to the Song Dynasty as the chief envoy, he is definitely not a small person.The experience of observing people through the two lives of Liang and Xin.

This is a guy who seems to be a loser.

Because he was really fat, and there was oil on his sleeves and snack residue on his robe.

"Brother Xin from Liang Mansion?" Xiao Yuanfeng spoke first.

Liang Xin took a step forward: "My father is currently the governor, and my father-in-law is the king of the county. Who are you?"

Xiao Yuanfeng was stunned. He had never seen someone announcing his family name like this.

A person next to Xiao Yuanfeng took a step forward: "My second sister is now the daughter of Prince Yan, and my eldest sister is the concubine of Prince Yan. My great-aunt, Ruide Shenlue, was appointed as the Empress Dowager of Chengtian. Hum!"

He even added a hum at the end!

This sound made Liang Xin laugh.

But soon, Liang Xin realized that this guy was no ordinary person.

She turned out to be a descendant of the Xiao Yanyan clan. Empress Dowager Xiao was no ordinary ruthless person.

And King Yan.

Isn’t he the next leader of Liao Kingdom?

Liang Xin's target instantly switched from Xiao Yuanfeng to this young man, who looked about the same age.

Liang Xin stepped forward: "Do you dare? Come to the table and take a gamble."

"Why don't you dare?"

Liang Xin: "Then, find two more people. You find one, and I'll find one with similar status. My bet is huge."

"it is good."

"An hour later."

"it is good."

Liang Xin saw that the other party responded, bowed her hands, turned around and left.

Unnamed restaurant.

Accidents always bring surprises.

four people.

The age can be called virtual age seventeen.

Liang Xin was actually seventeen years old, but she was actually about the same age.

Liang Xin found a partner, Duan Zhengyan, also known as Duan Heyu.He was born in the sixth year of Yuanfeng in Song Dynasty, the ninth year of Dakang in Liao Dynasty, and the ninth year of Da'an in Xixia.

Then on the Liao side, Xiao Fengxian was born in the ninth year of Dakang of Liao Dynasty.

The last one is an accident and a surprise.

The Xixia people came with the mission. Brother Richard is a fierce man who can drive two stone men. He was born in the ninth year of Da'an in Xixia. He once fought with the Song army and was defeated by Miao Lu, but he was fierce, so he fought hard. Escape.

Four 17-year-old boys.

There is just enough mahjong for one table.

The only one who came with the mentality of losing was Duan Zhengyan. In his opinion, he wanted to please Liang Xin and let Liang Xin speak for him in front of Emperor Song.

The four of them sat down, and Xiao Feng spoke first: "Why aren't you serving wine?"

Liang Xin answered directly: "I'm still young."

Brother Richard: "You are young, so you need to serve wine."

Duan Zhengyan whispered: "I guess what Brother Xin means is that you still have many years of good life in your youth. There are rumors in Bianjing..."

"Ah, hahaha." Xiao Fengxian laughed wildly.

Brother Richard was ready to laugh at Liang Xin.

Liang Xin glared at Brother Richard: "If you have the guts, if you stand in front of my eldest lady and can withstand the blow of equality among all living beings, I will call you the cupbearer."

Brother Richard roared: "I can shoot a two-stone bow."
