Chapter 599: Expulsion
Wang Jiweng did not expect that he was in a hurry to make a mistake, and his questioning aroused Liu Huang's vigilance, who only said that Qiongzhou was short of grain and wanted to buy grain from Champa and Annan, and never mentioned this matter again. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info In this way, the two did not get the exact news of the alliance between Xingchao and Annan and Champa from it, but from Liu Di's words, they felt that there must be something wrong with it after a little analysis.
First of all, it is very suspicious that Chen Yizhong will stay in the city for a long time and not return. According to the world, it is said that it wants to go to court, but now that the court has gained a firm foothold in Qiongzhou, it still does not return, it is very suspicious, it is estimated that it is either a hostage, or it is responsible for contacting the two countries to resist the Yuan; Moreover, the royal families of the two countries sent their children to Qiongzhou, and when the Great Khan threatened to use force against the two countries, and if, as Liu Huang said, it was only to discuss the purchase of grain, why did the important ministers of the three parties need to come out.
In addition, Liu Di's secretive attitude was too suspicious, and he tried to make up for it after discovering that he was drunk and lost his words, which showed that he was negotiating an alliance with the two countries on behalf of the Xing Dynasty. It's just that they still don't know how far it has progressed now, and looking at the smug look when he came, he should have eyebrows, otherwise he wouldn't have the confidence to hold Qiongzhou.
Although no further news could be obtained from Liu Huang's mouth, this meeting still brought a turnaround. The next day, they were given a change of residence, and the food was finally able to whet their appetite, and the soldiers who 'protected' them were gone, apparently acquiescing in allowing them to come and go freely. Although Liu Huang also promised to inform the Holy God of their arrival and the edict, no one came to contact him.
Seeing that a few more days had passed, the court still had no one to pay attention to them, and Liu Mengyan and Wang Jiweng felt that they should take the initiative, so they tried to visit their former colleagues and subordinates, but they either ate a closed door or spoke coldly, which made the two very embarrassed. However, they still tried to find out the details of the tripartite alliance, and in addition to sending people to monitor their residences to see who was coming, they did not hesitate to surrender their identities to listen to the root of the wall.
Although the two tried their best, they did not gain much, mainly because of the language barrier, and they couldn't understand a word of Annan dialect at all. In desperation, he could only buy off a business traveler who lived in the same inn with a lot of money, and asked him to translate what he heard to himself. It's a pity that their group really lacks language talent, and the translator can't even guess and recount it completely, only mentioning what came to Annan to return the encroached land of Zhancheng, and the Great Song Dynasty and Annan shared the land of Guangnan and Guangnan.
At this time, Wang Jiweng suddenly remembered that Liu Huang had talked about inviting the two of them to a banquet in Guangzhou, so that they could be connected. It turned out that the Three Kingdoms Alliance not only wanted to repel the crusade of the Yuan army, but to capture the two roads of Guangnan, and then the three kingdoms would divide the spoils, but they were limited to the limited eavesdropping and could not know more about the content, but this was enough to explain why the Xing Dynasty would snub them, because the Xing Dynasty would not obey the edict of the Empress Dowager at all, and the little emperor would not summon them.
When Liu Mengyan and the others made this judgment, they became uneasy in their hearts, worried that they would be detained by Xingchao, and they were more likely to be regarded as rebels and killed the sacrificial banner. And early this morning, the guards arrived and blocked the post house, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. When they saw a camel through the crack in the door and drove straight to the backyard, they felt even more discouraged.
Liu Mengyan and the two of them were both important ministers of the imperial court, and they are currently the secretary of the Ministry of Rites of Dayuan, how do they not know that this camel is a special honor guard for the royal family, not everyone can sit casually, and ordinary people can have the honor to touch their butts is a great favor of the emperor. And the car is definitely not here to pick him up, and the only people in this post house can bear this favor are the two feudal princes in the backyard.
Now that the imperial court is welcoming it with a state salute, it is enough to show that the Triple Alliance has become a fact, and this pomp is to go to the palace to sign the covenant. On the contrary, the identity of the enemy envoy and the rebellious identity of the country will end up extremely bad, thinking of this, the two looked at each other and smiled bitterly, originally thought that they could use the edict of the Empress Dowager Xie to surrender to the court, and get some capital for promotion in front of the Great Khan, but at the moment their lives may not be guaranteed.
"Two officials, there are officials from the Great Song Rites Department who have come to deliver the decree!" Just when the two of them were in shock, they trotted in and said.
"From the Ministry of Rites, who is it?" Wang Jiweng stood up abruptly and asked, but everyone could see that his legs were trembling slightly.
"Little ones, I don't know, they're in!" The person who was nervous Wang Jiweng made him even more nervous, and pointed behind him.
"Brother Ask for Heart!" Liu Mengyan saw that the leader knew himself, it was Xu Zongren, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and he arched his hand.
"Brother under the section, don't dare to be!" Xu Zongren replied indifferently.
"Ask for heart, why bother, have we also been ministers in the same palace!" Seeing the embarrassment of the scene, Wang Jiweng also stepped forward and smiled.
"Hmph, I think it's a shame to be in the same hall with the festival as my life!" Xu Zongren didn't buy it, and snorted coldly.
"Brother Qiuxin laughed!" People had to bow their heads under the eaves, and Wang Jiweng didn't dare to attack even if he touched the nail, so he said with a smile.
"Today's official is not a joke, His Majesty issued an edict that all the former officials of the Great Song Dynasty who defected and served the enemy will be removed from their fame and title, and everyone in my Great Song Dynasty army and people can be killed!" Xu Zongren said, "According to the edict, the two subordinates have been removed from their fame and their official citizenship. ”
"This ......" fame has always been the foundation of the scholar based on the society, and Liu Mengyan has been the champion, which is also the capital that he is proud of. But now it's all lost, and at first glance, it's really like a mournful test, and I stammered and couldn't speak.
"I am an envoy of the Great Yuan, I am ordered to visit, you must ensure our safety, otherwise you will ......" Wang Jiweng's first thought was that 'everyone can be punished', that is to say, once he walks out of the post house, he may be beaten to death, so he is in a hurry.
"Your Majesty only remembered that you were Tartar envoys, and did not immediately capture and kill, and now order this official to escort you out of Qiongzhou immediately." Xu Zongren saw Wang Jiweng's angry appearance, and said with a sneering smile on his face.
"We are the envoys of the Great Yuan, on the orders of the Great Khan, with the Empress Dowager and the edict of Emperor Deyou, we can kill but not humiliate, how can you treat us like this?" Wang Jiweng clearly ordered himself to be completely cut off by the Great Song Dynasty, and there was no old love to speak of, and he would be the enemy when he saw him in the future. And when they were escorted out of the country, they were already regarded as criminals, and they were now allowed to be men again, and said angrily.
"Hey, hey, it's okay!" Xu Zongren smiled but agreed, "You must leave Qiongzhou on your own within three days, but whether you can safely go to Lingao is not guaranteed!" ”
"That'...... Then follow Xu Shangshu! Hearing this, Wang Jiweng was stupid, and after weighing it, he felt that it was important to save his life first......
