As soon as Fan Yu heard the word "New Year's Coin", he pricked up his ears.

In the First Battle of Lanzhou, Zhenzong of the Great Song Dynasty was forced by the then Prime Minister Kou Zhun to personally drive the expedition. When the army of the Great Song Dynasty learned that the official family was on the front line, their morale was immediately high.

On the other hand, the Liao army was also the Empress Dowager Xiao and the Liao Shengzong raised 200,000 troops, and the troops came to the city of Lanzhou, wanting to ask the Great Song Dynasty for the land of Guannan.

It's just that before Zhenzong arrived in the city of Lanzhou, Xiao Tzu Rin, the commander of the Liao army, was shot to death by the bed crossbow of the Song army. And the morale of the Liao army plummeted, and the Empress Dowager Xiao and the Liao Shengzong also seemed to have no master.

Originally, if Emperor Zhenzong of the Great Song Dynasty had been bolder, he might have defeated the Liao army under the counterattack.

It's just that Zhenzong was really timid, and repeatedly sent envoys to sue for peace with the Liao State, and proposed to give the Liao State 200,000 horses of silk and 100,000 taels of silver every year in exchange for the peace of Song and Liao.

Thirty years have passed since the signing of the Song and Liao Alliances as brothers. This Liu Liufu mentioned the New Year's coin again, and he didn't know what it meant.

The official Zhao Zhen did not speak, and Chen Lin's brows furrowed.

Lu Yijian, as the prime minister, had to come forward at this time and said: "What your envoy mentioned, forgive me that Da Song can't agree." The covenant is written in black and white, and it is very clear. If the envoy is not clear, I may have a copy of the covenant and give it to the envoy to peruse. ”

"The land of Guannan was owned by my Liao State, but it was later taken by Zhou Shizong." Liu Liufu said in a deep voice: "After Song Liguo, he also received the letter of state from my Da Liao several times to ask for return, but he never had the slightest intention of returning. Now although the Liao and Song dynasties have stopped fighting and stopped fighting, this land in the south of the Guannan still wants to be returned to my Great Liao Kingdom. ”

"Don't joke, don't be funny, this land in the south of the country was taken by Zhou Shizong, what does it have to do with my Great Song Dynasty?" Lu Yijian shook his head and said with a smile: "Moreover, what your envoy said is also about the New Year's coin, but it is not a place to ask for Guannan. ”

Where Guannan is, Fan Yu is not clear. However, it is impossible to make concessions in territorial disputes. And listening to Lu Yijian, this is still the territory that Zhou Shizong seized from the Liao State back then, which makes it even more reasonable for the Great Song Dynasty to return.

Liu Liufu only smiled slightly: "The return of the land of Guannan, this matter is naturally related to the New Year's coin." Back then, my Empress Dowager Xiao of Daliao and His Majesty Emperor Xianshengzong raised troops to the south in order to recapture the land of Guannan. If it weren't for your Song Kingdom to sue for peace and be willing to pay the New Year's coin, how could you get the peace of not using swords for the past 30 years? It's just that now, the Song State has occupied the land of Guannan for a long time, and the New Year's coins given to me Da Liao have not increased. But it seems that Song Guo is not sincere. ”

When Fan Yu heard this, his eyebrows raised. This Liu Liufu is really shameless, the alliance that has been agreed upon by the two sides has to add conditions. What does it mean to have been occupied for a long time? That was the territory of the Great Song Dynasty. After occupying it for a long time, you have to reach out and ask for more money, which is simply hateful.

Lu Yijian coughed lightly and said: "What your envoy said is very rude, and the Song-Liao alliance has been established, so it will be an eternal example." If it is because I have owned the land of Guannan for a long time, I have to increase the annual coin, which really doesn't make sense. ”

"Lu Xianggong, the Great Song Dynasty also collects taxes from Guannan every year." Liu Liufu argued: "If Song Guoken returns Guannan to my Great Liao State, I can be the master, and I don't want this year's coin." If you refuse to return it, you Song Kingdom must increase the annual coins! With the taxes of my Great Liao Guannan, it should be returned to my Great Liao. For many years, I have occupied the land of Daliao, and the additional rent must also be collected. ”

Fan Yu couldn't help but interject: "Liu Liufu, you don't want to be sophistry." Guannan was captured by Zhou Shizong, if you have a kind of Liao country, you can go underground to find Zhou Shizong. Since we had this territory when the Great Song Dynasty was founded, it is naturally my Great Song Dynasty territory, and it has nothing to do with your Liao State. ”

Zhao Zhen sat upright on Long Qi, and when he heard Fan Yu asking Liao Guo to go underground to ask for territory, he couldn't help but turn sideways and cover his face with his sleeve by drinking tea. It's just that from the shaking of the clothes, it can be seen that the official family is holding back a smile.

Chen Lin also coughed a little to show that he wasn't smiling.

Lu Yijian smiled unabashedly, and continued: "Your honor, although An Lehou is young, he can also speak clearly. The land of Guannan was there when the Great Song Dynasty was founded, not the Guannan of the Liao Kingdom. Moreover, the two countries fought in Lanzhou that year, and they did not distinguish the winner or loser. My Great Song Dynasty holds the heart of calming things and calming people, and is willing to give out New Year's coins to comfort the Liao country, which can be called benevolence and righteousness. ”

Coldly glanced at Fan Yu, Liu Liufu snorted coldly: "In this way, I came to the Song Kingdom this time, but I didn't accomplish anything, and I was injured by all the Song guards?" ”

When he asked, he was retreating as advancing.

But Zhao Zhen didn't speak, you can't do anything, what does it have to do with the Great Song Dynasty. Lu Yijian frowned, but he didn't say anything after thinking about it.

The atmosphere in the Chongzheng Hall was extremely embarrassing, and Fan Yu just looked at this Liu Liufu to see how he could find steps for himself.

Liu Liufu glanced around the hall before he smiled calmly and fearlessly: "I am just an envoy, and in the face of the rudeness of the monarchs and ministers of the Song Kingdom, I can only go back and tell the truth to my Majesty Daliao." Song Guo didn't agree to this, he didn't agree to that, and he also injured all my Da Liao warriors, and didn't leave me Da Liao with any face. The land of Guannan was not returned, the annual currency was not increased, and many Great Liao warriors were injured, and the conditions I proposed as an envoy were again and again conceded, and the Song State ignored them. I think it was the thirty years of Chengping, so that the Song Kingdom had forgotten the scene of the iron cavalry highlighting the wolf smoke. Anyway, the foreign minister will no longer disturb His Majesty Song Guo, and he will leave. Today he will go out of the city and return north, and in a few days he will come south with the army and come to see your majesty again. ”

Zhao Zhen's face changed, if he really let this Liu Liufu run back to complain, if the Liao State sent troops to attack, what would it be? Moreover, in the past 30 years, the armament of the border soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty has been slackened, and the ghost knows how much ability to resist the Liao army is still there.

This is nothing, once the war with the Liao army starts, the alliance signed by the emperor thirty years ago will become a piece of waste paper. The peace and prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty will be broken thirty years later.

What Lu Yijian thought in his heart was similar to that of the official Zhao Zhen. Although these years have been generally peaceful, they are also the result of the efforts of successive ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China to maintain it. Occasionally, when the Song army and the Liao army clashed, they would also be denounced by the ministers as causing trouble, and said that the enemy did not dare to break the contract, and there was no need to prevent it.

Hurriedly taking a step forward, Lu Yijian smiled and said: "Why do you want to make a child angry, but there are just a few things, do you want to go back and ask His Majesty Liao to send troops?" At this time, it was not that my Da Song did not allow it, but that he did not negotiate. ”

Liu Liufu laughed, and after two hehes, he laughed, and then he looked up to the sky and laughed. This person's attitude is extremely presumptuous, and he has no respect for the Great Song Dynasty.

Fan Yu was extremely unhappy, and couldn't help frowning: "Shut up, you, more than 20 elite soldiers of the Liao State Leather Room Army, but they were beaten by the two forbidden soldiers I brought, what kind of face do you have?" In terms of the sluggish state of your Liao army over the years, you dare to threaten to raise troops? ”
