Traveling through Tianlong: Starting from the Zhenlong chess game

Chapter 468 Return to the Song Dynasty
Three days later, Chairman Park returned to Kaijing from Dengzhou to meet Zhao Mu and others.

Zhao Mu then said goodbye to King Goryeo and his son, as well as Princess Anping's master and servant. Embark on the journey back to Middle-earth.

Looking at Zhao Mu's car leaving, the King of Goryeo looked at his son and asked, "How is it? What do you think?"

Wang Shizi replied: "At least, the people of the Song Dynasty are more disciplined than the people of the Liao Dynasty. It's just that we didn't agree to the Song Dynasty's borrowing the road, and I'm afraid we won't get the benefits of the war."

The King of Korea looked at his son and smiled. He replied: "Although it is good to expand the territory, our country of Korea now has a sparse population and its national strength is not as good as that of big countries like Song and Liao. What's more, the Jurchens in the north are very good at fighting. They are elusive in the jungle. Let's take those places. , It’s just causing trouble for yourself.”

Looking at the dark clouds gathering in the sky, the King of Korea sighed with emotion: "The weather is about to change. The greatest victory is that we can protect ourselves in this storm."

Prince Wang also sighed and said, "Maybe what my father said is right."

Prince Wang looked at Princess Anping on the other side and asked, "What do you think, Anping?"

Princess Anping heard her cousin's question and said: "This time my marriage can not only save our country. I also married the person I like. King Qi is a real hero. I have never liked people from Liao." ”

Prince Wang chuckled and said, "Does Anping still care about that matter?"

Prince Wang also sighed and said: "I don't think it will be long. Even if the Song Dynasty does not take the initiative to provoke it. Xixia, Liao Kingdom, and Tubo will not sit back and watch the Song Dynasty continue to accumulate strength. I believe it will not take long before this storm It will come. I hope this giant ship of the Song Dynasty can protect our lonely boat in the wind and rain. "

Zhao Mu took Wang Yuyan and others back to Dengzhou by boat.

Princess Anping replied: "This is natural. King Qi helped us kill him. For this reason alone, my heart already belongs to him. I just don't know when I will see him again next time."

Wang Yuyan still didn't say a word along the way.

Abi said goodbye to Zhao Mu and left with Wang Yuyan.

Princess Anping then turned around and returned to her palace. During this time, she had to continue learning Chinese. She looked forward to the next time she saw her husband, she could talk to him directly without an interpreter.

Then Prince Wang bowed in the direction where Zhao Mu was leaving. It seemed like he was praying to God, and also seemed to be praying to Zhao Mu.

When they came back, everyone had already discussed where to go.

Abi looked at Zhao Mu and said, "Uncle Patriarch, we will meet again later."

After returning to Dengzhou, Zhao Mu said: "There is no eternal feast in this world. Now it is time to say goodbye."

The King of Goryeo was not idle afterwards. After he returned to the palace, he summoned his ministers. He planned to select some young and beautiful girls from all over the country. When Zhao Mu sent people to marry Princess Anping, they would also be used as dowries for the princess. Pack them together and give them to Zhao Mu. Since Zhao Mu likes beautiful women, he naturally has to go with her.

Zhao Mu and Ju Jian naturally went back to the capital. His group had been away for more than two months. I believe that the capital has a lot of things waiting for him to deal with.

Moreover, it is already the end of summer, and it will be autumn in a while. It's time for him to prepare a "blitz attack on Xixia" combat plan.

After autumn, when the Song Dynasty soldiers have enough food, it will be a good time to start a war. This time Zhao Mu wanted to end the battle before the Liao Kingdom could react and before winter came.

As for Wang Yuyan and the other two, Zhao Mu wanted to take them back to the capital. But now is not the time. Moreover, Abi still carried Murong Fu's orders. Abi took Wang Yuyan to Dengzhou Camp to meet Gong Yeqian first, and after conveying Murong Fu's arrangements. The two of them will return to Suzhou.

Abi also talked to Zhao Mu about her and Wang Yuyan marrying Zhao Mu.

Although Abi's words were very vague, Abi also made it clear that unless Zhao Mu's five hundred thousand taels of silver got into Murong Fu's hands. Otherwise, she and Wang Yuyan would not come to Zhao Mu's door.

After the money was in Murong Fu's hands, she and Wang Yuyan would become Zhao Mu's people from now on.

Although Abi felt that she and Wang Yuyan had been betrayed by her own young master, it was only in order to realize the young master's great cause. She is also willing to sacrifice herself.

After the four of them separated, Zhao Mu took President Park to see the Dengzhou magistrate. He also praised Chairman Park’s contribution to this trip. Moreover, Zhao Mu promised to speak kindly to the emperor after returning to the capital. Zhao Mu also promised that in this year's official assessment, even if Dengzhou magistrate would not be promoted, he would definitely not be demoted.

After getting Zhao Mu's promise, the prefect of Dengzhou was also extremely happy. I am extremely grateful to Zhao Mu.

After finishing all the favors, Zhao Mu also took Ju Jian and returned home as quickly as possible. On the one hand, he was raising money and then waiting for Murong Fu's men to come and collect it. On the other hand, I want to go back as soon as possible to handle my official duties.

After a few days of racing, Zhao Mu and Ju Jian returned to the capital after a long absence.

Ju Jian went back to his house first to set up his front station, while Zhao Mu went into the palace to meet Emperor Zhe Zong and report the results of his trip. And asked him for 500,000 taels of silver as a betrothal gift to Wang Yuyan.

Zhao Mu rode his horse to the palace gate. He didn't need a palace pass to see the emperor, so he followed the eunuchs directly to meet Zhezong.

Zhezong was reviewing the memorial in the imperial study. I only heard the eunuch at the door reporting: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Qi is back!"

Hearing that Zhao Mu was back, Zhezong quickly put down the imperial pen in his hand, and then said: "Oh! The emperor's uncle is back. Then invite the emperor's uncle in quickly!"

After receiving Zhezong's permission, Zhao Mu walked into the imperial study: "I, Zhao Mu, see your majesty."

Zhe Zong looked at Zhao Mu and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please forgive me! I wonder how your uncle got from this trip? If you have anything new, tell me quickly."

Zhe Zong walked out from the Long Bookcase, and then followed Zhao Mu to the table and chairs nearby. Zhezong ordered the eunuchs to serve two cups of good tea and some snacks.

The monarch and his ministers sat face to face, and Zhe Zong listened to Zhao Mu's "adventure" this time.

However, Zhao Mu did not hide anything from Zhe Zong this time. He took a million taels of silver from himself to Dengzhou and went to the Jurchen tribe via Goryeo. Convincing the Jurchen tribe to raise troops. As well as helping Murong Fu establish a camp in Liao, waiting for opportunities. He also represented the Song Dynasty, Murong Fu, and the Jurchens to carve up the land of the Liao Kingdom.

Zhao Mu even told Zhe Zong that he slept with Princess Anping of Goryeo.

After Zhezong heard this, he did not interfere with Zhao Mu's decision to cede territory and form an alliance on behalf of the Song Dynasty. Instead, he joked with a smirk on his face: "Haha. The emperor's uncle is the emperor's uncle. No matter where he goes, he always has some erotic experiences. I just don't know how this Goryeo woman feels compared to Xixia and Dali women?"

Zhao Mu also smiled evilly and replied: "The taste is naturally very good. I originally thought she was just a palace maid, but I didn't expect that she is the princess of Goryeo and the fiancée of Yelu Yanxi, the grandson of Liao."
