Chapter 110: Who Leads the Troops
Looking at the unbelievable Song Chen with a shocked face, a touch of disdain flashed in Zhao Tong's eyes.
Immediately, he arched his hand to Zhao Ji directly above the main hall.
"The birthday gift given by the Metropolitan Governor to the Emperor of the Song State has been delivered, and I will leave here."
Saying that, Zhao Tong turned around and left, from beginning to end, he had no intention of paying homage to Zhao Ji, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.
The monarchs and ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were still in shock, and Zhao Tong had already left the main hall......
……
Zhao Tong left, but the shock he left behind still deeply shocked the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty.
Not long after, a group of small chamberlains, one of whom walked into the main hall with a box and placed it in the center of the main hall.
"Open!"
Zhao Ji ordered.
A few small chamberlains stepped forward and opened the largest box, and as soon as the box was opened, a foul smell came to my nose.
If you look closely, there is a nitrated human head in the box, which exudes a foul smell, but its face is still clearly recognizable.
"Is this the King of Western Xia?"
Someone covered his nose and asked, somewhat unconvinced.
Zhao Ji ordered a minister who had been an envoy to Western Xia to go and identify him.
Although the minister was reluctant, he still walked up tremblingly, looked down at the human head in the box, and couldn't help but turn pale.
"How? Is it or not? ”
Someone next to him couldn't help but urge.
The man's face changed for a moment, and then he nodded.
"Your Majesty, this should be the King of Western Xia."
"Come on, check the heads of the others."
Zhao Ji ordered.
A large group of attendants stepped forward and opened the boxes one by one to check.
The pungent stench became more and more intense, and the smoke made people dizzy.
After a while, the attendants counted all the heads, and the attendants led by trotted to Zhao Ji's side and said in his ear.
"Your Majesty, all the slaves and maids have been checked, and there is no doubt that they are all from the Western Xia clan, Li De, the brother of the King of Western Xia, Li Hua, the brother of the King of Western Xia, and the son of the King of Western Xia......"
Western Xia was destroyed?!
Zhao Ji still felt a little incredulous.
However, it is impossible to fake the dozens of heads in front of him.
Especially outside the palace, there are a group of female dependents of the Western Xia royal family, and it is even more impossible for these living people to fake.
The atmosphere in the hall became a little stagnant, Zhao Ji waved his hand, the birthday banquet was over, and the heads were taken out by the attendants.
The monarchs and ministers in the palace moved to the Yifu Palace.
"Ladies and gentlemen, let's talk about it, what does this traitor mean by giving me the head of the King of Western Xia?"
Zhao Ji frowned slightly and said, even he felt Chen Yan's ill intentions.
How can someone celebrate someone's birthday, and you give someone a head as a birthday gift?
What about playing, dude?!
"Your Majesty, this traitor is bold and has disturbed the Holy Driver, please send troops to suppress it!"
Liang Shicheng in the hall stepped out of the class and said.
"Your Majesty, by all means, the traitor is powerful, and if you want to conquer the imperial army, you will definitely suffer heavy losses."
Cai Jing said.
"As long as Your Majesty sends an envoy to the thief camp, I believe that the thief chief will definitely submit to the court."
"Your Majesty, this traitor has the audacity to slaughter the Western Xia royal family without authorization, and his disobedience is clearly revealed, please send troops to suppress him, otherwise it will become a big disaster in the future."
Zhang Bangchang stood up with a sad face and said, if he didn't know, he thought that it was his family who was wantonly slaughtered.
"Your Majesty, the Western Xia was destroyed, it can be seen that the thieves are powerful, and now the Great Song Dynasty should consider going north to recover the land of Yanyun, rather than wasting national strength on such a trivial matter."
"Once the land of Yanyun is recovered, the hearts of the Great Song Army and the people will be shaken, such a group of anti-thieves, the army can be destroyed with a backhand."
Tong Guan said.
His fiery desire to recapture Yan Yun has not yet been defeated by the cold reality.
Not long after returning to the Great Song Dynasty, he forgot the fear of being taught to be a man by the Liao cavalry.
"Tong Guan, you can be punished!"
Cai Jing glared at Tong Guan angrily and said.
"Encourage Your Majesty to start a war lightly and let the rebels become bigger, do you want to rebel?"
"Cai Jing old dog, how can you slander people's innocence out of thin air! Is it wrong for me Tong Guan to want to recapture the sixteen states of Yanyun for the Great Song Dynasty? ”
"Could it be that the thieves are too powerful to be exterminated for the time being, isn't what I said true?"
Tong Guan retorted mercilessly.
The two quarreled with blushing faces and thick necks.
Zhao Ji rubbed his eyebrows with a little headache, and suddenly remembered Li Gang who had sent an envoy to the thief camp last time, and waved his hand to stop Tong Guan and the two from continuing to attack each other.
Some expectant eyes looked at Li Gang.
"Li Qing, what do you think about this?"
Li Gang returned from class.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the anti-thief is rebellious, and he really can't recruit peace."
"Where did Li Qing say that?"
Zhao Ji asked.
"The conditions for recruiting peace given by the traitor, the heart of the unsubordinated is clearly revealed, and the old minister's heart is shocked when he hears it."
Li Gang said.
The corners of Zhao Ji's mouth twitched.
"Can Li Qing say the conditions for the thief to accept Zhao'an again?"
The last time Li Gang came back from his mission, he only said the first condition for Chen Yan to accept Zhao'an in the court, and Zhao Ji was furious.
Now I have to let Li Gang say it again.
"No."
Li Gang clenched his fists and said.
"The first point is that the great rebellion is extreme, and the traitor asks His Majesty to be crowned a king, and he also asks for a word king."
When the ministers heard this, their eyebrows tightened, and they could see that they were in a bad mood.
"Li Qing, how about the second point?"
Zhao Ji pursed his lips and asked, although the anger rose in his heart, he still held back his anger and said.
"The second point is that he asked Da Song to give up Qin Fenglu."
"It can't be! The traitor is simply damned. ”
Cai Jing looked like he wanted to eat people, but everyone pouted secretly.
Cai Jing's acting skills are really getting better and better!
No wonder people can mix up with a slaughterer!
"Cai Aiqing will be quiet first and listen to Li Qing."
Zhao Ji said in a somewhat cold voice.
"Your Majesty's forgiveness, it's the minister's loss of shape, hearing about the rebellious conditions of this traitor, the minister is also very angry, please forgive your majesty."
Cai Jing hurriedly said.
Zhao Ji bowed slightly, signaling that Cai Jing was okay.
Li Qing continued.
"Third, if you listen to the tune or not, the traitor must have absolute autonomy, and even His Majesty must not interfere in his internal affairs."
"Fourthly, the traitor will reward His Majesty with five million taels of silver, three thousand taels of silver, five thousand taels of gold, a million pieces of silk cloth, and a number of jewels every year."
After Li Gang finished speaking, he retreated to the middle of the class.
In the entire palace, the atmosphere became extremely stagnant.
"Your Majesty, please send troops to suppress the thieves, mobilize the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, the Western Army, and gather heavy troops, and we must exterminate the rebels."
"Divide the five horses of the thief chief and execute Ling Chi!"
Zhang Bangchang stood up and said in an extremely passionate tone.
"Who can lead the troops?"
Zhao Ji took a deep breath and asked.
"Your Majesty, the former Western Army has made the Planter Dao a great responsibility."
Liang Shicheng proposed with a solemn face.
He has a lot to do with the Seed Clan Generals behind the Seed Master Dao.
Tong Guan's Northern Expedition failed, and the seed master Dao was forced to take the blame, and he had been idle at home for several months, and he wanted to give the seed master a chance to recover.
