Chapter 1214: Shen An dancing on two eggs
After the Liao envoy was furious, he began public relations.
He first asked to see Zhao Shu, but was refused, and then went to see Zaifu, but was still refused.
This is what it means to be public to public, and you follow the procedure.
Then let's follow the procedure, but two days later, there was no response to his application at all.
Hurry! The Liao envoy must show his usefulness before Yelu Hongji's thunderous wrath comes, otherwise he will be the first unlucky person to abolish the New Year's coins in the Great Song Dynasty.
So he sent someone to Shen's house, saying that it was to negotiate peace between the two countries, and Shen An agreed.
Later, news came from the palace that the official family rewarded the lonely old man in the capital with wine and food to show his celebration.
The official family was happy, Yang Zhuoxue was not bad, and after the generous reward, Zeng Ermei was asked to get good wine and food, and the family celebrated the Great Song Dynasty.
Zeng Ermei is very busy, but she is also very lively. Chen Luo hugged his daughter and walked around outside the kitchen, and when Zeng Ermei came out to see her, he went over and kissed him, and then urged Chen Luo to go back quickly.
"Fifty times!" She said happily: "The two of us are a hundred." ”
"Lang Jun is good to us." Chen Luo smiled: "You don't know, the servants of those powerful and high-ranking officials don't have such good things, and they have to be careful about doing things, otherwise they will be scolded at least and deducted money at worst...... It's still Lang Jun! ”
Zeng Ermei stared at him, "It was given by the lady." ”
Chen Luo couldn't help laughing, "The money was earned by Lang Jun." ”
"It was given by the lady."
"It was earned by Lang Jun."
"Wow......"
A little bit of crying stopped a quarrel, and Chen Luo went to the front in a huff, holding a little bit of it, and happened to meet the envoy of Western Xia to visit.
The smile of the Western Xia envoy was like a little bit of innocence, and after seeing Shen An, the first sentence released kindness.
"Regarding the agreement between our country and the Liao State, it is an alliance under the city." The so-called alliance under the city is a covenant between the strong party and the weak party, which is called a treaty in later generations.
The envoy of Western Xia smiled very humbly, "The Liao army will be wreaking havoc in Western Xia, and our country will not dare to resist, but even so, our country has never promised to form a coalition army...... You know, it takes courage, a lot of courage to reject the Liao. ”
Hehe!
Shen An smiled, the so-called courage, this is pure nonsense.
Among the Three Kingdoms, Western Xia was more like a-stirring stick, which made Song Liao achieve long-term peace and gave Song Liao a headache.
The Liao State tried to destroy the Western Xia several times, and then went south to destroy the Great Song Dynasty and unify the world.
But Xixia, the flat-headed brother, is not so easy to destroy, and he has broken the teeth of the Liao people several times, and occasionally takes the initiative to attack and bite the Liao people.
So what kind of courage is purely fooling Shen An.
"Really?"
Shen An praised: "No wonder! ”
He shook his head and sighed, very embarrassed.
The envoy of Western Xia was itching, so he asked, "Is there anything bad to say about Shen County?" ”
"Let's ...... matter," Shen An said embarrassedly: "You know that the Liao envoy is angry." ”
The envoy nodded, and he had already heard the news that the Liao envoy was scolding the Great Song monarch and his ministers in the post house, and he was still very excited at that time, hoping that Song Liao would start a war immediately.
"But after being angry, he has to weigh the strength comparison between Song and Liao, you say?" Shen An smiled more and more kindly.
"yes!" The envoy remembered that the Liao had been defeated by the Song people several times, and his heart became more and more empty.
The purpose of his coming here is very simple, that is, he wants to bow his head and admit his mistakes, and then test the tone of the Great Song Dynasty to see if the money given to Western Xia by the Great Song Dynasty every year can be kept.
"Someone said......" Shen An hesitated for a moment, and the envoy immediately said: "I brought some precious medicinal materials on this trip, but there are no ...... on the market Shen Xiangong worked hard for the Great Song Dynasty, looked a lot haggard, and sent someone over when he turned around. ”
This is bribery!
Shen An sighed, "It's not for this, but it's ...... It's good. ”
After taking bribes, the envoy almost wanted to vomit blood, but he could only laugh and say: "It's just some medicinal materials, it's not worth anything." ”
Only then did Shen An nod and said, "Some people say that the Liao people's coins have been abolished, but what about the coins of Western Xia?" That's a lot, so why keep it? ”
The envoy of the "Shen County Gong ......" showed a fierce light in his eyes, and wanted to threaten it, but he immediately remembered that the last few battles between Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty were all defeats, and even Li Liangzuo was not an opponent.
If it is a threat, it is impossible to say that the Great Song Dynasty abolished the coin in a fit of rage, and then the already bad Western Xia will become a complete poor ghost.
"Xixia was docile to the Great Song Dynasty, and asked Shen County Gong to say a few good words for Xixia...... Appreciate. ”
The envoy got up, bowed, and said sincerely: "Please, Shen County." ”
Shen An nodded and said casually: "It's easy to say." ”
He took a sip of tea and said calmly: "The cancellation of the New Year's coin is just the beginning, and then the relationship between Song and Liao will continue to deteriorate, and the Great Song is not worried about this." It's just that the Liao envoy said......"
Is this a sell-by-the-market?
The envoy sneered in his heart, and was about to turn back to find the Liao envoy, so the two of them joined forces and put pressure on the Great Song Dynasty together.
Shen An smiled, "The Liao envoy said that the Western Xia people were a big trouble, and said that it was possible to abolish the coins given to the Western Xia and give them to the Liao State instead. There is no need to add the name of the coin, and there is no need to give the name of the coin, so everyone is happy...... It's just that the Western Xia is suffering, and it is tormented between the Song and Liao countries. ”
"I'm afraid Shen Xiangong is not joking, right?" The envoy wanted to slap the table, but he was worried that Shen An would be a hooligan, so he sneered: "The Liao envoy will scold the Great Song monarch, will he come to ask to see you?" Unless he's crazy, it's impossible,"
Hehe!
This mallet!
Shen An couldn't help but laugh secretly, thinking that Liao Envoy's scolding was a big scolding, but now he was panicking, and he was worried that Yelu Hongji would kill him when the time came. Therefore, meritorious service is the only choice.
From his point of view, how can he be guilty of meritorious service?
Shen An believed that only by exploring the next plan of the Great Song Dynasty could the Liao envoy escape.
He thought about it for a while, and remembered that the Liao envoy had made an appointment at this hour, and he would come a little later.
The envoy could no longer bear Shen An's threat, and said coldly: "This matter is like this, I will go to find the Liao envoy ......", he stared at Shen An and said: "Shen County Gong should not forget, Da Liao and Western Xia are now allies. If the two really join forces, Da Song is an opponent? Farewell! ”
This was Brother Pingtou's reaction, Shen An was not afraid, and when the envoy said goodbye later, his smile had become reserved.
He left the Shen family and said to his entourage: "Shen is pretending, but he has seen through his tricks, and the Liao envoy will not give Da Song a good face, so let's just wait and see the excitement." ”
The attendant did not speak, looked ahead, and suddenly pulled the messenger and pulled him to the edge of a stall to hide.
"Do what?" The envoy was annoyed, and his attendant pointed ahead, "It's the Liao envoy." ”
The envoy looked closely, and only felt that the blood all over his body was frozen.
Oh, my God!
It's really Liao's envoy coming.
What is he doing in Yulin Lane?
Tie must have come to visit Shen An.
Then Shen An was not pretending before, but confident......
Something is wrong!
Something could not be more wrong!
The messenger hurriedly followed, and whispered to his attendants, "Go back quickly, and bring all those good things." ”
He regretted his previous reserve, so he had to make up for it with more gifts.
Now he was panicking, and he was worried that Song and Liao would join forces to sacrifice Western Xia, and that situation would be a desperate situation.
And the Liao envoy is also remorseful at the moment.
He came to see Shen An to explore the roots of the Great Song Dynasty, and the Great Song Dynasty abolished the New Year's coin, so what are you going to do next?
Judging from the grievances of Song Liao for a hundred years, the biggest point of disagreement between the two sides is not what the old coin, but in the land of Youyan, that is, the sixteen states of Yanyun.
The Great Song Dynasty cut off the New Year's coin, so the next thing must be to stare at the north. But when will they do it?
Shen An's face was very cold, which made the Liao envoy feel a little remorseful, and felt that he should not come.
This must be a visit that is destined to return in vain, and it will be a humiliation!
But now that he's here, he's ready to test it.
"Song Liao's hundred years of peace were ruined in one fell swoop, and the consequences were unpredictable, as a messenger, I am very sad."
The Liao envoy bowed his head, as if he was mourning something.
"yes!" Shen An also said entangledly: "I don't want to see the relationship between the two countries today, but ......"
Is this the real reason for the severance of the coins?
The Liao envoy was ecstatic in his heart, and hurriedly raised his head and asked, "Dare to ask Shen County Gong, why?" ”
Shen An's expression was gloomy, as if he was sending a friend away, "In the hundred years since the two countries, the Liao State has repeatedly invaded the Great Song Dynasty, which has made the Great Song Dynasty uneasy...... There's no denying that, right? ”
Even the Liao envoy couldn't play tricks on this, and he said embarrassedly: "That's before!" ”
"Kefu Prefecture ambushed Zhe Jizu, Xiongzhou intercepted and killed my Great Song Prince, and stationed troops outside Yanmen Pass...... Which one of these piles is not a threat? ”
When the Liao envoy thought of these things, he felt even more aggrieved.
The ambush of Zhe Jizu was broken by Shen An's army, Xiongzhou was even worse, the ambushed men and horses were ambushed by the Song army, and so far the Liao State does not know why the Song army knows its own arrangement......
Outside Yanmen Pass, this is a knock on the mountain and a tiger, Yelu Hongji has many options, but Shen An is pseudonymous Cao Xueqin, and only the option of taking the initiative to attack is left when it is burned.
Speaking of which, this Shen An is the scourge of Da Liao!
The Liao envoy couldn't help but have a murderous intention in his heart, thinking about whether to report to the country and let His Majesty send some good hands to kill Shen An.
This thought could no longer be suppressed, and Liao Envoy's heart was boiling, and his face was red.
"Now the only thing that the Great Song Dynasty thinks about is the land of Yanyun...... Your envoy, as long as the land of Yanyun is returned, Song Liao will be peaceful for another hundred years...... No, another millennium is not a problem. ”
Shen An said with a straight face: "Think about it, Song and Liao come to you for grazing in some kind of land, your beef and mutton are sold to us, and our rice and noodles are sold to you, the two countries are very complementary!" ”
The Liao envoy was already confused.
It was within his expectation that the Song people wanted to return to Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, but Shen An said that this was very complementary, which made him a little confused.
What does that mean?
As a veteran of the diplomatic circles, he had never heard of such a subject, and when he heard it, he was a little moved.
Shen An glanced at him and thought to himself, you are a mallet, do you know that the topic of 'complementarity' has become a compulsory course in the diplomatic circles of various countries in the future?
The relationship between the two countries without complementarity is unstable, so later generations have frequently heard the saying that the two countries are very complementary, which is to pave the tone for the relationship between the two countries.
"There are many tribes in the grassland, and they are unruly, and only the Great Liao can control them, for which the Great Song is very grateful."
Shen An said very sincerely, "There is also Western Xia, if there is no Liao State staring, they are afraid that they will go to war with the Great Song Dynasty, so ...... Da Song has to be thanked. ”
Oh, yes!
When the Liao envoy heard him say this, he couldn't help but feel that Da Liao was really great, and he did good deeds without leaving a name for so many years.
"yes!" The Liao envoy couldn't help but sigh, feeling that Da Liao should use these to negotiate with the Song people, and naturally he could suppress the opponent.
But since Shen An knew, why did he say it?
Facing the suspicious gaze of the Liao envoy, Shen An said calmly: "That's why I said that Song and Liao are very complementary and should have a brotherly relationship, but there is a problem in the middle, that is, the ownership of the land of Yanyun......"
"That can't be!" The Liao envoy's eyes almost burst into flames, and he got up and said, "If that's the case, then use the knife and gun to speak,"
Shen An smiled, "Yes! I should have used a knife and a gun to speak......"
"Da Liao is not afraid!" The Liao envoy sneered: "Da Liao can recruit those fierce tribal warriors from the grassland at any time, and they will let you know what barbarism is and what is bravery!" ”
"Brave?" Shen An said calmly: "I forgot to tell you that the envoy of Western Xia only came just now." ”
He used the news that the Liao envoy was going to join forces with the Great Song Dynasty to trap the Western Xia envoy, and turned his head and used the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia to scare the Liao envoy, which can be called the rudder of the wind and extremely shameless.
"Him?" The Liao envoy said lightly: "Great Liao and Western Xia are allies, the Great Song Dynasty abolished the New Year's coin, Western Xia and Great Liao feel the same way, if the two countries join forces, you may be enemies?" ”
Hehe!
This is a threat from Chiguoguo, but Shen An just laughed at it, and then said contemptuously: "I forgot to tell your envoy that the envoy of Western Xia had only been gone for a long time, and he had a very happy conversation just now, in order to keep the coin, the envoy of Western Xia just now was...... It's almost groveling! They were even willing to ally with the Great Song Dynasty...... But don't you believe it? ”
The Liao envoy just sneered, "The envoy of Western Xia came to a certain letter, but if he said that he was friendly with the Great Song Dynasty, it was just a joke." If so, what is the use of allies? ”
Since everyone is an ally, we should take the same position in the face of the Great Song Dynasty.
The Liao envoy got up, "I will take my leave, and ask Shen County Gong to tell the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty that if he refuses to compensate, the day when the Great Liao Iron Cavalry will go south will not be far away." ”
Shen An smiled, "Honest." ”
Zhuang Laoshi came in from outside the door, and Shen An ordered: "Send the Liao envoy out." ”
The Liao envoy brushed his sleeves away, and rode out of Yulin Lane along the way.
He turned around and looked at the mouth of the alley, and said in a deep voice: "Tell Your Majesty immediately, the Song people actually used the Western Xia people to threaten the Great Liao, it can be seen that they are weak-hearted, and when they are stationed at the border, they are waiting for the opportunity to move." ”
Someone went out, and at this time a child ran out of the alley and shouted: "The Xixia people have gone to the public house of Shen County, and they have brought a lot of things!" ”
What rice?
The Liao envoy was furious, but after thinking about it, he sneered: "This is a lie, but ...... Check it out. ”
A Liao man quietly touched into the alley, and when he came out again, his face was like earth.
"The envoy of Western Xia brought many gifts into the Shen family, and he was very happy when he looked at the smiling ones."
The Liao envoy's heart was cold, and he scolded: "The treacherous villain, go and tell Your Majesty immediately, just say that the Western Xia people are not trustworthy, and the Song people are eyebrow-to-eye......"
……
Fourth, good night.
