In 979 AD, three years had passed since Zhao Jiong's success in killing his brother, and after pacifying many domestic disputes, Zhao Jiong's idea began to continue to fight on the Northern Han Dynasty.

In the war before Zhao Kuangyin's death, the Liao soldiers defeated the Song army, and finally Zhao Kuangyin died with hatred. Probably for Zhao Kuangyin, the biggest regret in this life is that he failed to destroy the Northern Han Kingdom with his own hands. In the more than ten years that he was emperor, he attacked the Northern Han several times one after another, but in the end he failed because the Northern Han had the support of the powerful Liao State.

Although Zhao Kuangyin was finally killed by his younger brother Zhao Jiong, in Zhao Jiong's heart, since he inherited his brother's throne, he must also inherit his brother's unfulfilled wishes. So for the Northern Han Dynasty, he is also determined to win.

When Liu Jiyuan, the emperor of the Northern Han Dynasty, learned of Zhao Jiong's attempt, he ordered a large amount of money in the country and contributed all the looted fat and ointment to the Liao State in the north. He even did not hesitate to send his son as a hostage to Liaoshangjing.

Since Liu Jiyuan was so sincere, it was impossible for Yan'er to sit idly by and ignore Zhao Jiong's preparation to attack the Northern Han. Although the Northern Han Dynasty was small, it was also related to the life and death of the Liao State. After all, the Northern Han Dynasty was a barrier between the Liao Kingdom and the Great Song Dynasty. If the barrier is broken, can the life of the Liao Kingdom be better? This is also the reason why the successive emperors of the Liao State were willing to spend great manpower and material resources to support the Northern Han Dynasty.

As for how to deal with this matter, Yan'er's heart is also a little drumming. She and Zhao Jiong are old acquaintances, and she is naturally very clear about Zhao Jiong's temper and temperament. She knew that if she begged him, he would change his mind. But the point is that now she can't, she is no longer the Yan'er she used to be. Now she is the actual head of the entire Liao State, so her every move represents the entire Liao State. But if you sit back and ignore this matter, then I'm afraid that Beihan will really not be able to save it this time.

Come and think about it. Yan'er finally made a decision. She sent the tart horse official Changshou to envoy to the Song Dynasty to intercede for the Northern Han Dynasty. It's just that not in her identity, but in the name of Yeluxian, the king of Liao.

When Zhao Jiong knew that the Liao State was about to send people to Bianjing to negotiate the attack on Han, he was a little overjoyed. As early as three years ago, he knew that the Yan'er he had in mind had become a mature politician, holding the military and political power of the entire Liao State. So at this time, I heard that Yan'er was about to send someone to Song. He was still very excited in his heart. I want to kill my brother and take the heir. In a big way, it is because I want to get this woman. After ascending the throne, because of the instability of the regime, he never had time to go to Liao to meet Yan'er after many years. And this time, Yan'er actually sent someone to negotiate with him in person. Seemingly. After becoming the emperor, it is really good, at least he can be on an equal footing with Yeluxian and Yan'er.

"Spread my will and greet the envoys of the Liao State with the most solemn ceremony." Zhao Jiong said excitedly, his eyes were about to glow.

After hearing this, Wang Jien hurriedly did what Zhao Jiong wanted. Since Zhao Jiong became the emperor. In the end, he did not treat him badly, the first hero, although he was still the position of the head of internal security. But in reality, the power is much greater than before. even bought a big mansion for him in Bianjing, with 100 acres of fertile land and a group of wives and concubines. Even if Wang Jien is just a eunuch, he is also a lover of beauty in the end. It's also good to keep it at home and look at it.

"Xiaohai, you know what? After so many years, she finally took the initiative to contact me! Zhao Jiong said excitedly to Yu Xiaohai beside him.

Yu Xiaohai nodded lightly. Then he replied in a low voice: "Back to the Holy One, the last general just heard it!" But didn't the official document of the Liao people say that the Liao people came to intercede for the Northern Han Dynasty? Could it be that the Holy Lord is really ready to give up attacking the Northern Han? ”

Zhao Jiong smiled thoughtfully: "It's you instead." Will you fight with your daughter-in-law? ”

"But she is not your daughter-in-law, she is the queen of Liao!" Yu Xiaohai lowered his head and muttered.

Zhao Jiong glanced at him, and then said angrily: "Do you still need to say this?" Of course I do. But one day, I will make her the queen of our Great Song Dynasty! Become my Zhao Jiong's main palace mother! What Yeluxian can give her, I can give her! ”

Seeing Zhao Jiong say this, Yu Xiaohai stuck out his tongue helplessly, and then kept silent. Back then, he followed Zhao Jiong to Liaoshangjing, saw Yan'er with his own eyes, and was also shocked. So he understands very well why after so many years, Zhao Jiong has always remembered that person in his heart. Most of the heroes are sad to pass the beauty level! And as Zhao Jiong's current palace inspector, as long as he protects Zhao Jiong's safety, it is enough. Emotional matters, let Zhao Jiong handle it himself!

Ever since Zhao Jiong learned that the Liao State was about to send someone to the peace talks, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep every day. Even the harem is not entered.

For him, even though there are 3,000 beauties in the harem, it is far inferior to that one. But in the end, he is also the emperor, so he naturally has to show others what he wants, otherwise others who don't know will think that he has something wrong in some way!

After about half a month, the envoy of the Liao State finally arrived in Bianjing, and received a very warm reception under the instruction of Zhao Jiong.

Seeing this, Changshou thought that Da Song was showing weakness to Da Liao, so he was happy in his heart. But he didn't know that he got such treatment only because Zhao Jiong, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, coveted Xiao Yanyan, the empress of the Great Liao.

On the second day of arriving in Bianjing, Changshou was finally summoned by Zhao Jiong, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

Changshou walked up to the Jinluan Hall with great excitement, and the civil and military officials of the Great Song Dynasty were standing on both sides. And at the end of the road, the person sitting high on the dragon chair must be Zhao Jiong, the son of heaven in the current Great Song Dynasty.

So Changshou stood in front of the hall and respectfully saluted Zhao Jiong: "The longevity of the Great Liao envoy is the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty!" ”

Zhao Jiong sat upright on the dragon chair, raised his hand slightly, and then said lightly to Changshou: "Flat!" ”

Changshou slowly got up, and then continued: "Thank you! Changshou went to the Song Dynasty this time, but he was actually ordered by my Emperor Liao to persuade the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty to give up the use of troops against the Northern Han Dynasty! ”

Hearing this, Zhao Jiong frowned slightly, and asked Changshou, "Could it be that it wasn't your queen who sent you, but your emperor Yeluxian?" ”

Changshou didn't know what Zhao Jiong meant, so he had to nod slightly, and then said to Zhao Jiong: "Back to the Great Song Emperor, it was my Great Liao Emperor who appointed Changshou to come!" ”

Zhao Jiong's face changed suddenly, he originally thought that it was an envoy sent by Yan'er, but who knew that now it was actually someone sent by his rival Yeluxian. Then the meaning is completely different. If it was someone sent by Yan'er, it wouldn't be a big deal for him to give up attacking the Northern Han. But if it was someone sent by Yeluxian, then he would not be able to fulfill Yeluxian's wish! (To be continued.) )
