Autumn is high and cool, clear and lofty.

The wind outside Datong Mansion carried a slight chill, rolling up countless banners, and the emperor of the Khitan was under the city, and he was greeted by the Shaozai of the neighboring Great Song Dynasty.

The Khitan Emperor came out in person, but Yang Lin didn't want to put on a shelf at this time, so as to show his strength. If the Great Song Dynasty is at a disadvantage now, is beaten to Bianliang, and comes to the enemy's military camp by himself, then he should really be neither humble nor arrogant, and win glory for the country.

Now at this time, it is meaningless to pretend, and it is easy to hate the Khitan monarchs.

It is true to lower your posture and seek the greatest benefits for the Great Song Dynasty. He was even more polite than Yelu Yanxi, and humbly seemed to be meeting the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

Song Liao is a perennial envoy and has a complete set of etiquette, and before Yang Lin came, he deliberately made up for it. At this time, it came in handy, and the Khitan Wenchen general, who originally felt very humiliated, saw the posture of the young master of the Song Dynasty, and his face eased slightly.

Yang Lin stepped forward and bowed, bowed to the foreign minister, and then raised his head and looked at Yelu Yanxi.

The last emperor of the Khitan, wearing the traditional Khitan leather-trimmed feather-winged dragon hat, with a high nose bridge and a long straight beard, looked very happy.

This guy looks quite majestic, with sharp edges and corners, and it seems that the appearance of the faint monarch is not too bad.

"Foreign Minister Yang Lin, the young ruler of the Great Song Dynasty, has seen His Majesty the Liao Lord." Yang Lin shouted loudly in a Khitan dialect he had just learned. In fact, all the high-level people in the Khitan can speak Chinese, and Yang Lin only said this sentence in order to express friendship to them, so that when negotiating, they can get more benefits.

In the covenant between the Khitan and the Great Song Dynasty, the emperors of the Great Song and the Great Liao were considered brothers according to their age. So even if you are not an envoy, you have to salute when you see the lord of Liao.

Yelu Yanxi stepped forward to help him up, and said excitedly: "I didn't expect that at this time, the Great Song Dynasty would still be so righteous. On weekdays, I always look at you and it's not very pleasing to the eye, but now I know what a friend is. ”

When he said this, tears of emotion came out, but Yang Lin was speechless for a while.

This is what an emperor should say... It seems that the person who can ruin such a big family business also has something.

The Khitan ministers around him lowered their heads and looked at their boots, pretending not to hear anything.

Yang Lin didn't have this condition, he said arrogantly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, just a Jurchen, a small land, a small state, a lucky sneak attack, occupy Shangjing." The Liao and Song dynasties have been friendly, and this thief is so rampant, how can I, the Great Song Dynasty, sit idly by. ”

Yelu Yanxi was so moved that he immediately took Yang Lin's hand and walked towards Yunzhou City.

The high handle is on the side, the waist is straight, the face is serious, only a pair of eyes, and from time to time there is a familiar and cunning look.

Yang Lin glared at him, then the corners of his mouth hooked, and he almost laughed.

The city of Datong Mansion is high and deep, and it really deserves to be a famous city through the ages, and Yang Lin's three thousand people followed them and slowly entered the city.

The Xijing Palace, in the city, was originally the residence of a Khitan clan, but it was later killed because of the rebellion, and it has been empty.

Now that it has become a small palace of Khitan, Zhehuan Xiang is wearing a somewhat loose robe, and he tends to follow behind him, looking around left and right very interestingly.

After the group of them came to the hall and sat down, Yelu Yanxi immediately asked impatiently: "When will the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty arrive?" ”

Yang Lin sighed and said, "It's not a secret, our official family and I are all bent on helping the Liao rebellion. But we have traitors in the court.

There are some villains who don't know the general situation and don't keep the covenant, and they celebrate the encounter of Da Liao, and they are bent on sending troops to form an alliance with the Jurchens in order to take back the land of clouds.

Isn't this taking advantage of the danger of others? The official family and I naturally disagree, but Your Majesty may not know that our civil officials in the Great Song Dynasty have controlled the government for a long time, and sometimes they dare not even listen to the words of the official family. ”

When Yelu Yanxi heard that there was still this change, his face immediately collapsed, but the other Khitans heard that this Song official wanted to bargain.

Looking at his emperor again, it is clear that as long as you send troops, you will agree to anything, how can you talk about this.

Xiao Fengxian hurriedly stepped forward, and said with a smile before the emperor sold Da Liao cleanly: "The hour is not early, it is better to give a banquet to the Song envoy first, and then talk about state affairs." ”

Yelu Yanxi looked impatient, and said: "Upper Kyoto has fallen, and I still only care about eating and eating, what a bunch of rice buckets." ”

Yelu Yanxi was stupid, and scolded the ministers angrily, which looked quite funny.

Yang Lin hurriedly drank tea and took the opportunity to cover his mouth to hide his sneer, but a chuckle came from behind him.

This sound was so harsh that the Khitans present all looked at him with their eyebrows and glared behind him, a handsome and unspoken personal soldier. Zhehuanxiang knew that she was in trouble, so she hurriedly stood up solemnly, only cowardice in her eyes, and did not dare to speak again.

Yang Lin secretly complained in his heart, and scolded the lewd woman for ruining my big thing, and went back to hang you up and smoke.

At this time, Gao Shan, who was on the side, hurriedly came out to make a round and said: "Shaozai, the situation in the Khitan is actually extremely critical, it is better to send troops early." We have millions of soldiers in the northwest, so why did we come, isn't it because we are afraid that the Jurchen Tartars will go south?

Why don't you take the opportunity to directly ally with Your Majesty, and directly lose the Jurchen Tartars, and worry about what they will do in the south.

At such a critical moment, Your Majesty is not a person who does not know how to be flexible, or he ceded the land of clouds to us, which is really a wise move by a strong man to break his wrist, and it is very difficult.

In this way, it will not only block the mouths of those short-sighted civilian officials in our DPRK and China, but also solve the urgent needs of Daliao, and will not kill two birds with one stone. ”

Yang Lin secretly gave Gao Yanei a thumbs up in his heart, good boy, witty enough.

When did we have a million soldiers and horses in the northwest, Gao Shan's words were obviously to increase the bargaining chips of the Great Song Dynasty, and at the same time let these Khitans know that once the Song court forcibly started a war and retrieved Youyun by himself, they would have a million more enemies out of thin air.

There is also the fact that between the lines, he is full of hints to Yelu Yanxi, as long as he agrees to cede it, he can have the help of the Song people.

Before Yelu Yanxi could speak, some of the Khitan ministers were already furious. This clearly shows that in front of everyone, he is treating our emperor as a fool, will he still agree?

"Good! It's still General Gao who has an opinion, and he is much better than mediocre and wasteful courtiers. This Youyun Sixteen Prefectures was originally not our Khitan, so it is natural to send back ten or eight. As long as you can help me exterminate the Jurchen Tartars, I will return them to you, and it is not a matter of my words. ”

There was silence in the lobby, and Gao Shan didn't expect that his words would really be useful.

Between the lightning and flint, Yang Lin reacted quickly, and hurriedly said: "In this case, why don't we finalize the covenant here, the Khitan cede ten states to the Song Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty sends troops to exterminate the Jurchens!" ”

"Never!" Seven or eight Khitan ministers came out at the same time and shouted to stop them.

PS: Mrs. Yao has been passed on to the whole group...
