Became a feudal lord in the late Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 85 Three Dynasties and the Northern Alliance
  When military orders came from the rear, Liu Ling slowly hurried back to Zhuozhou with his soldiers and horses. Seeing that the peace talks were imminent, the Song army sent people over to urge him to bring some soldiers and horses to join Tong Guan's army. They would need to go to the peace talks together.

"I have to go with you."

Cai Jing arranged his clothes. Wang Anzhong and others were all dismissed. He was the nominally highest official in Yandi, so he had to accompany them. He was a little disappointed when he saw Liu Ling, because Liu Ling had been writing letters to Tong Guan recently to "strengthen the relationship", and there were also words in the letters asking for money and food.

In other words, the fate of Cai Jing's tool man has ended.

At the entrance of the General's Mansion, servants had already cleared the way. In order to show the majesty of the Princess of Liao, when she stepped out slowly, the servants and maids knelt on the ground and shouted to welcome her.

Liu Ling and Cai Jing looked up with indifferent eyes. None of the soldiers behind them knelt down.

Cai Jing took a deep breath and planned to say a few words and then ask the princess to get on the carriage, but the next moment, he saw Liu Ling walking over and coming to the princess of Liao.

The latter wears a ruffled skirt embroidered with golden branches and flowers; it has a straight collar and left hem, and even every fold in the clothes is numbered. The front is brushed on the ground, and the back is trailed by a foot. Hang down to the level of your lower knees.

The full-body skirt is actually a kind of long robe. There is a white cross-collar underwear inside the robe, a skirt is worn on the lower body inside the robe, and a brocade belt is tied around the waist, with both ends of the brocade belt trailing long behind. A jade pendant hangs from the waist, and black stitched black boots are worn on the feet.

The clothes are gorgeous, coupled with her natural appearance, she is charming and charming, and her aura really has the aura of a princess. Liu Ling once held her for a night in Jizhou. Although he didn't sleep, he knew that her waist was very slender and her chest was wavy, like the fruit on a skinny tree.

The legs seem to be very long, but there should be more fat, so they feel good.

"She's quite beautiful." Liu Ling looked at her and said with a smile.

Yelu Yuliyan lowered his eyes and replied in a low voice: "If it weren't for the general, how could we be here today?"

Although Liu Ling had various reasons and had not touched her much during this period, in a woman's heart, certain actions have greater meaning than reality.

Yelu Yuliyan was very grateful to this young and heroic man and had a good impression of Liu Ling.

Cai Jing frowned slightly. In his eyes, the princess was relatively tall, so she was not beautiful. When Liu Ling walked up to the princess, he thought he was going to give her a few instructions.

But the next moment, his eyes widened as he watched Liu Ling pick up the princess's hand. The latter followed him obediently and climbed onto the carriage frame under Liu Ling's leadership.

"Walk."

Liu Ling patted Cai Jing with his hand, seemingly not caring about Cai Jing's gaze at all.

The cavalry that Liu Ling gathered last time has been almost exhausted. Now Zhuozhou City can only raise more than 300 cavalry. Less than half of them are riding horses that are not military horses, but are fully armored.

Han Shizhong was wearing a pair of sheepskin gloves given to him by Liu Ling. When the wind blew outside, he immediately began to feel grateful to Liu Ling, because it was indeed freezing cold.

He carried a spear on his back and a bow tied to his horse, and walked forward bumpily, only occasionally thinking of the scene in front of the general's mansion.

Along the Sorghum River.

Both sides, no, it should be said that the three sides sent a small number of troops to escort their respective envoys.

On the side of the Jin people, Wanyan Zongwang was dressed in golden armor, with hundreds of cavalry followers behind him. When he looked at the Song people, his eyes were filled with fire, and he was clearly looking for someone. In his team, Zhang Wu also raised his head and looked at him with a wry smile. opposite.

On the Song people's side, Zhao Liangsi, dressed in purple official robes, stepped forward, flanked by Tong Guan's envoy and several generals. Tong Guan himself led his army to the north of Zhuozhou to build a stronghold, but did not arrive in person. Liu Ling rode alone. The white horse followed the team and felt countless glances suddenly coming from the golden man's side. The princess's carriage was also in the team. Finally, the team of the Ever Victorious Army appeared. Guo Yaoshi, whom he had not seen for a long time, rode out. He was wearing the standard armor of the Liao Kingdom and his expression was indifferent. However, when he saw Liu Ling, his hand holding the reins trembled slightly.

All three parties maintained restraint, and even the Jin and Song teams were vaguely guarding against the victorious army, fearing that Medicine Master Guo would suddenly go crazy. After all, judging from the previous outbreak in Yandi, Medicine Master Guo was not a gambler. He is just a lunatic and difficult to understand with normal thinking.

The place for peace talks is in a tent that has been set up.

Liu Ling was not qualified to go in and listen, but when he stood outside, he could faintly hear the fierce quarrel inside. Although Zhao Liangsi was from the Song Dynasty, he was sharp-tongued. He had been in the Song and Jin Dynasties for many years, and he could even be said to be a close friend of Wanyan Zongwang. know.

After Zhao Liangsi returned, he was promoted to an official position and was awarded the title of Bachelor of the Kangdian Palace, second grade. His wealth and splendor were all given by the official family of the Song Dynasty, so he would naturally do his best to serve.

Liu Ling excused himself to go to the toilet and went outside to find Shi Liai in his team. He whispered: "Zhang Dungu's people in Pingzhou are not here."

Shi Liai looked up. He was dressed like an adult soldier. Looking at Liu Ling's puzzled face, he whispered: "Maybe he has arrived."

Among the three envoys, a wooden box was opened, containing Zhang Jue's head.

Zhao Liangsi nodded slightly, and an official from behind immediately brought out a wooden box. Inside was the head of Zhang Jue's son that Liu Ling handed over.

Wanyan Zongwang looked gloomy. The general next to him put down several wooden boxes and said, "The heads of Zhang Jue's mother, wife and children are here."

The condition negotiated by Guo Yaoshi and Wanyan Zongwang was to hand over Liu Ling and Jingjizhou. Now that Liu Ling was not in the hands of Wanyan Zongwang, the latter naturally refused. In order to make up for it, Guo Yaoshi killed Zhang Jue and gave his head to him. Sent over.

In this way, there are many unclear things that can be blamed on the dead person.

The Jin people are obsessed with Zhang Jue and Liu Ling's affairs. At the same time, they believe that the generals of the Ever Victorious Army have repeatedly provoked side quarrels because the Song people did not run the army strictly. There are also letters exchanged between Zhang Jue and the Song people, as well as Wang An. The confessions of the middle-class people are here, which proves that the Song Dynasty people repeatedly resorted to tricks after conquering the Liao Dynasty. At the same time, he also said that the princess of Liao was in the hands of the Song Dynasty, and they hoped to return the princess immediately in accordance with the Maritime Alliance and the peace treaty signed last year.

Zhao Liangsi retorted, saying that the Ever Victorious Army was favored by the Song Dynasty. Who knows why they suddenly raised troops? They must have been instigated by others. Although the Jin people found letters from his home that were privately exchanged with the Song Dynasty, since Zhang Jue had died long ago, so The Jin people just framed the case randomly, and Wang Anzhong and other officials were trapped in Yanjing. Who knows whether they were beaten into submission, not to mention whose confession this confession was from was not accurate.

The matter of the princess of Liao was also very vague, so Zhao Liangsi thought that it should not be mentioned immediately.

Both sides had a point, so the blame was quickly turned to Guo Yaoshi. The Jin people said that the Ever Victorious Army had repeatedly crossed the border, so they once again demanded that the Ever Victorious Army and the households under its rule be handed over to the Jin Kingdom, and they also demanded compensation in coins and grain. .

The people of the Song Dynasty said that whoever likes this piece of garbage Chang Shengjun should get out of Yandi as soon as possible. But the land of Yan was made an agreement with you, the late Emperor of the Jin Kingdom, and now it has been taken by the Jin people on their own initiative. It is clearly because you are unreasonable, so not only Yanshan Prefecture, but also Jing and Ji Prefectures are already in the hands of Wanyan Zongwang. It must also be returned together.

Of course, if you are willing to admit that this is your mistake, you can be more tolerant in terms of coins and land in the Song Dynasty.

Pharmacist Guo only spoke a few words occasionally, and his attitude was vaguely dominated by Jin people.

Wanyan Zongwang was holding the table with one hand and dozing off with the other. Listening to the quarrel between his civil servant and Zhao Liangsi, he became more energetic and drowsy.

Outside the tent, a group of golden soldiers happened to come over. Liu Ling yawned and looked up, meeting a pair of eyes with complex expressions among them. He was stunned for a moment and said in surprise:

"Lao Zhang?"
