Wrapped in silver, the Haiyan River is clear.

A heavy snowfall at the beginning of the year has not been cleared until now, and Bianliang is still as prosperous as ever.

On the horse house, Pan Yi's face was red and his ears were red, and several families knelt down at the table below.

These people are absolutely loyal to him, and they are the personal soldiers handed down from the Pan family era, and many people's ancestors are the personal soldiers who guarded Pan Yi when he was dominating the world.

Their eyes were resolute, looking at Pan Yi at the top, this person was their master, although he was handsome in appearance, he had long lost the heroic spirit of King Zheng.

He was in a state of affairs at this time, and he actually bullied this king and grandson into such a way just because of the son of a businessman.

The master is so bad, these men are also ashamed of themselves, and many people have long been holding back their strength and want to break Yang Lin's body into pieces.

A glass of bitter wine entered his throat, Pan Yi's eyes were fierce, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Pan Qing!" ”

A burly man got up, went to the middle and hugged his fists and said, "The subordinates are here." ”

"I want you to take Yang Lin's dog's life, remember, don't use swords, don't use poison, don't leave evidence, I want him to die in an accident!"

Pan Qing smirked and turned to leave.

----

After sending Liu Qingshui away, Yang Lin thought about it carefully, and secretly said that this matter may not be so simple.

Xiao Liu Guifei is not such a sullen person, and she does not show a good impression of herself, what is the matter with her?

Could it be that the matter involves the secret affairs of the palace...

She wants to use her power to help her get rid of her competitors?

If this is the case, it is better for me to stay out of the matter, after all, the top priority at present is to seize power and save the Jingkang catastrophe.

I don't have any feelings with Xiao Liu Guifei, at best, I just covet her beauty.

As soon as Liu Qingshui left, the chamberlain came to the palace and passed Yang Lin into the palace to meet him.

As soon as Yang Lin wanted to attack other people's concubines, the main lord came to summon him, making him feel weak. The waiter who passed the message was Yang Jian's subordinate, Yang Lin asked carefully for a while, and the two little waiters only said that they didn't know why, but the prefect's family and Cai Jingjing were there.

Cai Jing is also there? Yang Lin suddenly relieved his heart, as long as this old thief is here, it is not a bad thing.

Yang Lin put on his official uniform and came to the Wenhua Palace, where Zhao Ji was rarely discussing state affairs with the prime minister.

Yang Lin was very curious, the merry son of heaven actually had a time to be dedicated, after stepping forward to salute, Zhao Ji said: "Yang Aiqing came just in time, the Khitan sent an envoy to the court, it is expected to arrive in the next few days, after I discussed with Cai Xiang, it was decided that you would receive it." ”

Khitan envoys, this is not the time to send New Year's coins, what are they doing?

Seeing Yang Lin's brows, Cai Jing smiled and said, "Wen Yuan, this Khitan envoy is here to mediate our war with Western Xia. ”

In the Song Huizong Dynasty, the war against the Western Xia was, in general, more wins and fewer defeats.

Especially after winning Hengshan, it has an absolute advantage.

The Hengshan area is for Western Xia, just like the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun for the Great Song Dynasty, after occupying it, it can be attacked, retreated, and defended.

After Cai Jing became the prime minister, he began to use troops against Western Xia. In May last year, Tao Jiefu, a transfer envoy from Shaanxi Province and Zhiyan Prefecture, sent troops to attack the stone fort, seize its grain cellar, and build a castle to defend it.

Shibao is an important place in Western Xia, the Xia people call it "Golden Cave Pot", Xia Chongzong Li Qianshun was furious, dispatched iron cavalry to fight with the Song Dynasty, and was repelled by the Song army.

In June, the Xia army and the Song general Zhe Keshi fought in Lingzhou River, and were defeated by the Song army, which had been without pay for three years.

In October, Li Qianshun sent an envoy to the Song Dynasty to ask for peace, but after being refused, he was forced to gather the forces of the Fourth Supervision Army Division and launch an attack on Jingyuan and other prefectures of the Song Dynasty, besiege Pingxia City, and attack the Zhenrong army... The Western army fought back and defeated the Xia army several times.

Yang Lin knew these exciting battle reports, but he didn't expect that Xixia was beaten and had no choice, so he actually begged for the head of the Khitan.

Cai Jing and Tong Guan's efforts to open the border cannot be erased, it is they who beat Xixia breathlessly, one inside and one outside.

Yang Lin pondered for a moment and asked, "It's a small matter to entertain the Khitan envoys, but this time they came for the summer thieves, but it was very tricky. ”

Zhao Ji is obviously also very embarrassed, since he ascended the throne, good news has been reported frequently, and Shenzong has attacked Xixia several times and returned, only when his situation changes, the Great Song Dynasty continues to encroach on the territory of Xixia, and it will disappear in a few years. But the threat of the Khitan is there, if they tear their faces and the Liao people of Yandi go south, I am afraid that they will repeat the mistakes of the Yuanyuan.

Yang Lin secretly moistened his eyes and asked Cai Jing, Cai Jing squinted slightly and shook his head slightly.

Yang Lin immediately spoke: "Your Majesty, the achievements of the Western Army in opening the border are the unique proud achievements of my Great Song Dynasty since Taizong and Taizu. This is all because His Majesty is an emperor who has descended to earth, and he is full of immortal luck, and his martial arts are far beyond ordinary emperors, and it seems that the recovery of Yanyun is just a finger away. ”

"Besides, the Xia thief was originally a subordinate of the Great Song Dynasty, but he didn't think of Jun's grace but wanted to stand on his own, and he was a great rebel. If I don't take advantage of the situation to slaughter them, the Northwest Heroes will follow the example of the summer thieves, and I will never be at peace. ”

"The Khitan, the people outside the country, are fierce and beast-like, do not understand the etiquette law, and even try to interfere in the politics of the Great Song Dynasty. Weichen thought that this matter must not give the Khitan people a good face. If the Khitan dares to go south, Weichen is willing to lead the troops north, with the blessing of His Majesty Shenxiao Yuqing King and Immortal Emperor, why worry about not recovering his homeland and sweeping Youyan! ”

"Yang Qing thinks that our Great Song can win?" Zhao Ji hesitated.

Yang Lin looked up to the sky and laughed, hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty! The immortal class descends to the earth, driving wolves and beasts, not exploring the bag to take things? ”

Zhao Ji was praised by him for a while, especially when he took out the set of emperors descending to earth, and his heart was full of joy. immediately said: "This matter will be handed over to Yang Qing for decision, and I will not have to worry about it." ”

Cai Jing and Yang Lin, one big and one small, watched the emperor return to the palace, and then turned around and walked out of the Wenhua Hall side by side.

Cai Jing put his hands behind his back and said in a low voice: "Wen Yuan, you can make Your Majesty disagree with the Khitan to make peace today, but you shouldn't take care of it." Although the Khitan does not have the ferocity and ruthlessness of the past, there is no shortage of fighting men on horseback, in case there is really a war, you will not be able to pick this pot. ”

Thinking about defeat before thinking about victory, this is the philosophy of the old oilman of officialdom, and Yang Lin is not disgusted by it. But this time is different from the past, if it is a prosperous era like Li Er, of course he must be dedicated to seeking wealth and keeping his life first.

But now it is the Northern Song Dynasty Huizong Zhao Ji is in power, and he can't blindly be cunning, Yang Lin smiled: "Enxiang, this country is so rich and delicate, we live in the clouds, enjoy endless romance and wealth, someone has to come out and take responsibility." ”

Cai Jing's eyes flashed with surprise, and he turned his head to look at Yang Lin, who had always been treacherous, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.

The gloomy sky was covered with dark clouds, and in the magnificent imperial city, Yang Lin straightened his waist, hunted in the wind in his loose official uniform, and smiled swayingly: "Men are as determined as iron, and students are not talented, so they often have the intention of not giving in." ”
