Although he already had some inferences in his heart about this matter, he still wanted to hear Yu Linglong's personal explanation.

Yu Linglong didn't feel too guilty, and said bluntly: "I just want to gamble." If I can save the day, this can be regarded as a thank you gift for sparing my life. ”

Zhao Dongting sneered, "Then what if I die because of this?" ”

"Dead ......"

Yu Linglong said slowly: "Then this will be the last thing I will do for Duan Qilin, and at the same time, it will be regarded as repaying him for his kindness to me over the years." ”

Zhao Dongting was a little puzzled, "He was right like that, and he left Shuzhong because of disappointment." Why are you still willing to do things for him? ”

Yu Linglong smiled bitterly, "He treated me unjustly, but if he hadn't taken care of me all these years, it would be a fact that I wouldn't be able to live now." Though I have severed my gratitude with him, I do not want to owe him any more. ”

"Oh?"

Zhao Dongting said meaningfully when he heard this: "That means that if you have another chance, you will still do it to me?" ”

Yu Linglong shook her head, "He's dead, what's the point of all this." If you kill again, the world will be in chaos, and I can't afford this sin. ”

Zhao Dongting chuckled and was noncommittal.

Whether Yu Linglong's words came from the bottom of his heart, of course he could hear it.

"Okay!"

Immediately, Zhao Dongting nodded, "Then tell me now why you want to join the sailing team!" ”

Yu Linglong replied: "Go out and have a look, and scatter your heart." ”

Zhao Dongting raised his eyebrows, "It's that simple?" ”

Yu Linglong was silent.

"Okay!"

Zhao Dongting pondered for a moment and said, "I can agree to join the navigation team, but I also have to agree to one condition. ”

"On what terms?" Yu Linglong said.

Zhao Dongting said: "I have formed a navigation team from various continents, and now there are no ambassadors from North America and Australia yet, and if you want to join the navigation team, you need to take charge of a continent navigation team for me." ”

Yu Linglong was slightly silent when she heard this, and a little cunning light flashed in her eyes, "This is the emperor's request?" Or is it a request? ”

At this moment, she is even more glamorous.

Zhao Dongting was slightly stunned, and then said: "You can think whatever you want." ”

Yu Linglong said again: "Then where does the emperor think I should go?" ”

Of course, she agreed.

Zhao Dongting smiled and said: "The climate in Australia is extremely good, the scenery is pleasant, and there are many island countries around. ”

Yu Linglong nodded, "Then I'll go to Australia!" ”

Zhao Dongting nodded at Gonggong Liu behind him.

Liu Gong Guild understood, took out the seal of the Australian Maritime Ambassador, which had already been engraved from the cabinet, and handed it to Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting handed the seal to Yu Linglong and said: "In the future, we will be the Australian navigation ambassador of the Great Song Dynasty, and the maritime trade between the Great Song Dynasty and the Australian countries will be responsible." I don't worry about my ability, and I don't want to say anything to make me loyal to Da Song in the future. I just want to understand that whether I start a war with Dayuan or destroy Dali and the New Song Dynasty, I am thinking about the people of this world. ”

Yu Linglong took the seal and did not speak.

Then soon, she was led out of the imperial study by Gonggong Liu.

Zhao Dongting was left alone in the imperial study, but he chuckled and shook his head, "It's a pity, it's a pity." ”

A stunning beauty like Yu Linglong wants to go to sea to be a nautical ambassador. This is really a loss for many young people......

Western Xia Zhongxing Mansion.

Li Xiushu received a message from Zhongsun Guge, and once again summoned all the civil and military officials of Western Xia in the main hall.

The main hall is resplendent with gold.

There are beautiful maids standing left and right behind Li Xiushu, holding a big fan.

After the ministers saluted, Li Xiushu's red lips opened lightly: "The Song State has already responded to the request for peace, and the Emperor of the Song State personally saw Zhongsun Guge and said to him, if we want to seek peace in Western Xia, we need to bow down to their Song State. ”

"This!"

"This ......"

"Absurd, delusional!"

"I'm waiting for the country to finally recover, how can I become a vassal of the Song State again!"

"The Son of Song is simply ambitious, is it not enough to give him the east and west roads of Lizhou?"

The crowd in the hall was suddenly angry, and I don't know how many ministers spit and were extremely angry.

"Silence!"

Li Xiushu waved her hand a little annoyed, "Since everyone is unwilling to bow down to the Song State, let's talk about it, what can you do in your hearts?" ”

An old minister said indignantly: "Your Majesty, even if we start a war with the Song Kingdom, we can't suffer this humiliation!" Let's fight with them! ”

Lee so-sook will not immediately express her position.

As the emperor, before the ministers in the palace reached a consensus, or before they were divided into distinct factions, she certainly would not easily reveal her thoughts.

Although the hall gradually became lively again, Li Xiushu just chose to stand by and watch at this time.

looked at the ministers or whispered, or blushed and thick-necked.

And like her, there are also Helian Dong, Zhongsun Qifu and others. They were all the most powerful beings in the Western Xia Dynasty, and they would not open their mouths easily.

It was only after a long time that the situation in the temple gradually became clear.

There are dozens of officials in the entire hall, roughly divided into two factions. One advocated a war with the four major military divisions and the Song State, and would rather die than bow down to the Great Song State.

The other faction advocated sending a letter to Changsha again, so that the Song Emperor would make a slight concession.

Only there is no advocate of bowing to the Song State like this.

They did pay too much effort for the restoration of the Western Xia.

When the hall was a little quieter, Li Xiushu's eyes fell on the faces of Helian Dong and Zhongsun Qifu, "Taishi, Lord Helian, what do you think?" ”

Helian Dong glanced at Zhongsun Qifu, took the lead in speaking, and said: "Back to the emperor, the minister thinks that fighting is a move to destroy the country, and with our current strength, there is no chance of winning. We should discuss with the Emperor of the Song State again to see if he can put forward other conditions other than the clause of making our country bow down and become vassals. ”

With that, he retreated back into the queue.

Zhongsun Qifu came out and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the old minister also thinks that what Lord Helian said is very true. ”

In fact, everyone knows that they don't have to fight, as long as they bow down to the Great Song Dynasty, but no one is reluctant.

Although this is not a dead country, it is almost the same as a dead country. Although Western Xia has a national name, it can only rely on the snort of the Great Song Dynasty in the future.

Li Xiushu nodded slightly after a moment's silence, "Then I will send a message to Changsha again!" ”

Then she let her ministers retreat.

Another few days passed.

Zhao Dongting also worked for the navigation teams of various continents in Changsha City.

For this matter, he even invited the navigators sent by Ma Yiguo to Changsha City. In order to give lessons to the members of the sailing team.

The Great Song Dynasty Continent Navigation Team has just been established, and it is impossible to go to sea as the original South American Navigation Team did. Training is inevitable.

Zhongsun Guge entered the palace again and asked to see Zhao Dongting.

This time, Zhao Dongting did not deliberately snub him again.

Soon, Zhongsun Guge was taken to the imperial study.

There is a clear distinction between the freshness inside the study and the heat outside.

As soon as he appeared, Zhao Dongting said, "Lord Zhongsun brought news from the court?" ”

Zhongsun Guge nodded and said, "I ask Emperor Song that you can discuss it again, can you ...... In addition to bowing down to the vassals, other conditions are prescribed. ”

was provoked by Zhao Dongting one after another, and he has no patience to deal with Zhao Dongting again.

But Zhao Dongting just shook his head and chuckled: "In addition to bowing down to the courtiers, what else can make me moved?" Site? Treasure? Do you think I care about that? ”

Zhongsun Guge's face was a little ugly, "Could it be that Emperor Song, you have to make us Xixia bow down and be vassals?" ”

Zhao Dongting said: "On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore." Only in this way can I truly rest assured! I don't want to face the same dilemma as when all countries attacked Song at the same time. ”

Zhongsun Guge was silent.

After a while, he was still a little unwilling, "There is no room for discussion?" ”

He pretended to sigh, "If that's the case, then I think we in Western Xia can only start a war with the Great Song Dynasty!" Western Xia can die, but it cannot be humiliated. ”

He said this last sentence categorically, as if as long as Zhao Dongting nodded, he could immediately send a message back to Xixia to let the empress go to war.

Only Zhao Dongting could be frightened by him.

Hearing Zhongsun Guge say this, he still had a chuckle on his face, "If that's the case, then Lord Zhongsun, please." ”

Zhongsun Guge really wanted to throw off his sleeves and leave at this moment, but he didn't dare after all.

He also knew that if the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty went to war, it would be the Western Xia who would eventually perish.

This is not only related to the rule of the empress, but also to the millions of people in Western Xia.
