Compete for the Song Dynasty

Wang Pang planned to meet Emperor Yelu Hongji of the Liao Kingdom before Yelu Zongyuan's action. His idea started when Yelu Hongji urgently called Wang Pang to talk at night.Now, Wang Pang has ruled out the suspicion of stealing the treasure of Tianwang Temple from the Liao Emperor Yelu Hongji.The remaining two people, Yelu Zongyuan and his son Yelu Hongxiao, since Yelu Hongxiao can say that the Wanyan tribe will grow stronger in the future, they are also the most suspicious.

When he learned that Xie Libo had met Li Enze of Goryeo, and that Li Enze was sent by Goryeo to the Song Dynasty, Xie Libo asked Wang Pang where he was going next, and Wang Pang said, "Go to Beijing!"

As soon as I finished speaking, I heard someone outside the door say: "Amitabha!"

During this time, Wang Pang stayed in the Tianwang Temple and talked a lot with Qi Song. He found that Qi Song was knowledgeable, good at writing, and diligent in cultivation, and he had a lot of affection and respect for Master Qi Song.Hearing Qi Song's voice outside, he hurriedly said, "Master, please come in."

Standing near the door, Han Derong opened the gatekeeper Qi Song and invited him into the room. Seeing Qi Song coming, Xi Libo and others knew that Wang Pang wanted to chat with him for a while, so they withdrew. [

Qi Song said: "I just came to see the benefactor and heard that the benefactor is going to Beijing? But do you want to see the emperor?"

"Exactly, I don't know what advice the master has." He said, inviting Qisong to take a seat, and poured tea himself.

"The benefactor does not know that the emperor often goes hunting. In the early spring, the emperor should be in Dading Mansion in Zhongjing. Soon he will visit the tomb of the Liao emperor to worship the ancestors. Why should the benefactor look far away?"

When Wang Pang heard what Qi Song said, he thought to himself, fortunately Qi Song reminded him, otherwise he would have gone the wrong way again.Thank you in a hurry.

Qi Song went on to say: "Although the old monk has not spent much time with the benefactor, I believe that he will not misunderstand the person. The benefactor is definitely not an idle person, but it is a bit rash to go to Beijing in such a hurry."

Wang listened to Qi Song's words, he wanted to stop Yelu Zongyuan, but after all, this matter is only a test, so he said modestly: "I am thinking about getting reinforcements as soon as possible, so I can go to Korea for reinforcements."

Qi Song said: "Haste makes waste. As far as I know, the Koryo Japanese slave war will not be resolved in a short time."

Listening to Qi Song's words, the king thought that this eminent monk was very knowledgeable and cared about the affairs of the world, so he might as well ask him for advice: "As far as I know, Goryeo and Wonu are no more than the land of Maru, and their area is no more than that of Liao. There are as many as one or two of the five ways, so it won't be long before the Japanese slaves want to attack Goryeo."

Qi Song smiled slightly: "The benefactor knows a little about meeting the old monk, and I can understand the benefactor's mood. However, I know from two points that this battle is not so easy to finish. First, it is easy for the Japanese slaves to land in Korea by water, but the original Japanese slave kingdom It is a place where robbers gather on the water, so it is named after the word "Wo". It took an army of one million to fight against Korea, but less than 100 people survived, does the benefactor know why?"

Wang Pang agreed with Qi Song's first point, but he also knew that it was troublesome to deal with Japanese slaves. As far as Wang Pang knew, the anti-Japanese war of the descendants had been fought for eight years.As for Qi Song's second point, Wang Pang was naturally troubled. Wang Pang thought: "Koryo dealt with the Sui army: when the weather is clear and cloudy, Goryeo retreats; when winter comes, Goryeo attacks. The Sui army suffers. Most of the soldiers froze to death. Later, Emperor Sui Yang needed to build warships in order to fight Goryeo. The craftsmen spent all day soaking in sea water to build warships. If they didn’t go, they would be beheaded. Many people Half of his body rotted from the waist down. Disgruntled soldiers staged mutiny and rebellion, and eventually Emperor Sui Yang conquered Goryeo and returned in defeat."

Wang Bangruo said: "I understand what the master means. The Japanese slaves are not persistent, and Goryeo is not so easy to deal with. Therefore, if I am not well prepared, I will inevitably spend time with the Korean Japanese slaves."

"Amitabha, what the donor said is very true."

Wang Pang carefully thought about what Qi Song had just said, and suddenly his eyes lit up. The reason why Japan surrendered in World War II was not only the long-term struggle of domestic soldiers and civilians, but also the most important factor, which was the shocking atomic bombing in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. .Thinking of those two atoms, Wang Bang felt relieved. He said: "Although the battlefield is in Korea, the key is not to drive away the Japanese slaves, but to destroy the Japanese slaves' aggression and dispel his spirit!"

"Excellent, excellent! A monk should not care about worldly affairs, but all worldly affairs cannot escape the retribution. I came here just to persuade the benefactor, don't be anxious for a short-term success." Qi Song said lightly.

After listening, Wang bowed to Qisong and said, "Thank you, master, for your guidance. I know that as long as I don't rush back to the Song Dynasty, my family will be safe, but because I was greedy for merit, I almost missed a big deal."

Qi Song waved his hand: "The benefactor's mission to Korea this time is also to save the common people in the world from the flames of war. This old man is just doing his best."

When Wang Pang saw Qi Song say that, he was not too polite, and the two chatted for a while before Qi Song got up to leave.Seeing Qisong leave the room, several people in Libo came back.

Wang Pang asked Han Derong to take out a pen and paper, spread it on the table, carefully thinking about the world map in his mind, and drew the locations of China, Korea, and Japanese slaves.Xie Libo and the others stood by the table, tilted their heads to look at them, and when Wang Pang had finished drawing Xie Libo, he asked, "Brother, what is this drawing of yours?"

Wang Pang pointed to the small and small place of Wo Nu and said, "Have you seen this place? This is the country of Wo Nu!" [

Xie Libo laughed and said, "Brother, why did you draw the Japanese slave like a bug!"

Wang Pang said disdainfully: "He is a worm, you don't know, there will be a big fireball in a few hundred years, bang! It will blow up this place."

Zhang Ping frowned and said, "We can't live for hundreds of years."

At this moment, after what Qi Song said just now, Wang Pang also felt that the time to be eager to ask for soldiers to go to Korea was not ripe enough. He looked at the few people around him. Except for Han Derong who had been following him, the other three had been running back and forth for a few days. , slightly tired.

"Brothers have worked hard back and forth. Let's not go to Beijing. Now is the time when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming. Why don't we go to Zhongjing with a leisurely tour of the mountains and rivers?"

"Hey! Good!" Zhang Ping and Han Derong were delighted to hear this, and couldn't help saying in unison.Xie Libo didn't seem to understand Wang Pang's intentions.

Wang Pang patted the impeachment bowl and said: "I heard that Yelu Hongji, the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, will go to Beijing in the spring to go to the imperial tomb to worship his ancestors. Let's avoid unnecessary mistakes. By the way, Brother He, the imperial tomb of the Liao Kingdom Do you know where it is?"

"I know, there is a mountain in Rehe, near the Luan River, that is where the imperial mausoleum is located." Xie Libo said without thinking.

Wang Pang suddenly thought that Yelu Zongyuan's rebellion was called the "Luanhe Rebellion" in history. Could it be that he wanted to raise troops while Yelu Hongji was hunting?

Seeing that a few people had almost packed up, Wang stood up and said, "Let's go! Let's go to Zhongjing Dading Mansion!" He walked out.

Zhang Ping and Han Derong hurriedly got on their bags and took them to salute, while they followed behind and muttered: "My lord, didn't you just talk about traveling in the mountains and rivers? Why are you in such a hurry?"

A few people beside Wang left Xijin Mansion in Nanjing, Liao Kingdom, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, traveled during the day, and stayed in the mansion shop at night.Along the way, Xie Libo told Wang Pang about his experience of going to Korea: Sure enough, Li Enze and Li Enxi were siblings as Wang Pang expected, and it turned out that Li Enxi was the princess of Korea.Now that there is someone in Korea to take care of them and get through this relationship, things will be easier in the future.

After walking for a few days, several people beside the king arrived at Dading Mansion in Zhongjing, Liao Kingdom. Yelu Hongji, the emperor of Liao Kingdom, had already arrived at the residence of Dading Mansion.

In the Nabo of the Dading Mansion in Zhongjing, Liao Kingdom, Yelu Hongji summoned a group of ministers to discuss matters. After a bunch of troublesome memorials were written, Xiao Ying reported that Wang Pang had arrived at the Dading Mansion and asked to see the Emperor.Yelu Hongji finally heard something happy today. Since Wang Pang left, he really missed this young man a little bit. He raised his voice and said, "Wang Pang came to Dading Mansion? Good! Pass the decree tomorrow." Summon the king at Orudo!"

Yelu Hongxiao in Nabo's big tent saw the emperor's happy face, curled his lips and said, "Isn't he the servant king of the Song Dynasty?"Is the emperor so happy?He was still summoned by Oruduo, and the king had only been to the Liao Kingdom once, so why was he so appreciated by the emperor.

How could he understand that Yelu Hongji would not be so happy if Wang Pang, as an official of the Song Dynasty, came to see the emperor of the Liao Kingdom.However, Wang Pang is still a person who can understand Yelu Hongji, and understanding is more important than anything else.

After Yelu Zongyuan and Yelu Hongxiao returned to the camp after retiring from the imperial court, Yelu Hongxiao said disgruntledly: "I think the emperor is close to the Song Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty is all weak people. Let the sixteen states of Yanyun, as long as our soldiers Once we go, the entire Central Plains will belong to our Khitan people. How about making an alliance with Song who has no power to fight back?"

Yelu Zongyuan glared at him as if: "What do you know, the covenant was made by the ancestors, this kid Yelu Hongji dare not break the rules of the ancestors."

"Tch, why are ancestors not ancestors? If Yeluzong really broke the contract, the emperor should belong to daddy now, and it won't be the turn of that boy Yelu Hongji." Yelu Hongxiao was indignant when he thought of this matter.

He went on to say: "Father, we are almost ready this time. Didn't you say that the emperor has our own people around him? When the emperor confirms the departure, we will set up a net in Rehe. At that time, we should cooperate with each other." If you kill him, the throne will naturally belong to your father." Yelu Hongxiao had a greedy look in his eyes as he fantasized that he would become the crown prince one day.

"You kid, keep your voice down! Be careful that the walls have ears!" Yelu Zongyuan stopped Yelu Hongxiao and said in a low voice.

Yelu Hongxiao rolled his eyes at Yelu Zongyuan: "Don't worry, we are all our own people outside the tent, you! You are just timid. Back then, you were bolder and took over those cities. Why bother now!" [

What he said was without any fear, and the person he was talking about outside the account, one of the Wanyan impeachers, was pricking up his ears and listening carefully.
