"Your Royal Highness, the envoy of the Liao State, has already arrived in Shanzhou...... Liu Yongnian sent an official document to Zhao Xin: "This is sent by the Sifang Pavilion, and the archives of the Liao State envoy and deputy envoy are ......" The Great Song Sifang Pavilion is the CIA of the Great Song Dynasty, and what it specializes in is to spy on the intelligence of the enemy country and infiltrate the internal work of the enemy country.

Usually, whenever a Liao envoy comes, the Sifang Pavilion must check the Liao envoy up and down as usual, so as to give the court some reference on how to deal with the mission.

Zhao Xin took the official document in his hand, read it again, and laughed: "The Liao people actually sent a Hanlin to ...... this time."

"It seems that Fuyanguo left a deep impression on the Liao people last year!"

Judging from the report of the Sifang Pavilion, this time the envoy of the Liao State is still an old friend of the people of the Great Song Dynasty, and his Xuanhui envoy Xiao Ying of the Northern Courtyard is named Xiao Tewei.

Just look at the name, you can know that this is an elite of the Xi tribe, a descendant of the Liao Kingdom.

Speaking of which, the system of the Liao State is very interesting.

After the reform of the previous generation of Liao lord Yelu Long, today's Liao State has gradually become a great Song Dynasty in terms of orthodox governance and national structure.

For example, their prime minister also had to hang the title of Pingzhangshi under the Zhongshu Sect, and the institution in charge of the army was also called the Privy Council, and it also used the imperial examination to select scholars, and also used the system of sending and removing officials to promote, appoint, and dismiss.

Except for the Liao lord who still follows the tradition of making bowls, and the four seasons take his palace tent army to roam the vast territory of the Great Liao Empire, everything else seems to be not much different from the Great Song Dynasty.

But in fact, Zhao Xin knows that the Liao State is still practicing one country, two systems at the highest level of its ruling group.

The balance between the southern and northern officials has always been well grasped by the Liao.

Its military power, which has always been held by the Khitan and Xi people, is the best evidence.

Of course, today's Khitan and Xi nobles have long been completely sinicized.

Just like Xiao Ying, the Xuanhui envoy of the Northern Courtyard, is a pure Confucian student.

People can even talk about the scriptures and righteousness with a top literati like Fu Bi in the Great Song Dynasty, and recite poems.

Xiao Ying and Fu Bi's friendship has not diminished even in the following decades.

The two often exchanged letters, talked about poetry, and exchanged their literary experiences.

But compared to Xiao Ying, Zhao Xin cared more about Lin Ya named Liu Liufu.

The so-called Lin Ya is the Khitan transliteration of the Hanlin Bachelor, a position that can only be done by the top three of the imperial examination of the Eight Classics of the Righteous People.

Zhao Xin was very impressed by this person.

Mainly in Zhao Xin's previous life, when he was in power, it coincided with this today's Lin Ya, who was already the third envoy of the Liao State, and the general leader of the internal and external economy, commerce and trade of the Great Liao.

During his tenure of office, he vigorously reformed the shortcomings of the government-run economy of the Liao State, and laid a solid material foundation for the later great cause of the Liao lord's eastward crusade.

can be regarded as a minister who has been used by the world.

Of course, since he is a minister who has been used by the world, his synonym is that this person loves money.

In other words, a corrupt official.

Good corrupt officials!

Zhao Xin rubbed his hands and said to Liu Yongnian: "Deputy Khitan envoy, Aiqing is still my family!" ”

"When the Khitan mission arrives, Aiqing might as well walk around with this Lin Ya......"

Song Liao went back and forth, coerced and lured each other, and it was a routine operation.

The erosion of gold and silver bullets is naturally commonplace.

"This ......" Liu Yongnian hesitated: "Will the Khitans give the minister this chance?" ”

Song Liao has been dating for so many years, and both sides know what the other may do, so before the mission departs, both sides must be strictly disciplined.

Anyone, as long as they are found out, even if they receive the benefit of a copper coin from the other party, they will not die after they go back.

"Afraid of what!?" Zhao Xin laughed: "This Wenchen is also not a Khitan or Xi clan!" ”

The current Liao State, like the Great Song Dynasty, has much more serious precautions against the nobles of the military than the scholars and doctors.

Moreover, because of the reality and history, the Liao lord's vigilance against the top nobles in the Khitan and Xi tribes was higher than that of the Great Song Dynasty.

There are some things, Dr. Wenchen touched, at most he patted his butt and went to the local area for a few years.

If the Khitan and the military nobles of the Xi clan touch, then wait for death.

Of course, in matters involving the Great Song Dynasty, whether it is a civil minister or a military minister, they are all treated equally.

After all, this is about the face and image of the Liao lord himself.

Of course, Zhao Xin also knew this, so he said to Liu Yongnian: "What's more, Qing, the lonely minister!" ”

And the other ...... The ministers of the king of Liaoliang also ......"

"Qing on behalf of Gu went to give gifts to the ministers of the King of Liao Liang, that is, Gu gave gifts to the King of Liang......"

"Therefore, Qingda can visit the door with confidence and openness!"

"Lin Ya, the lonely material, doesn't dare to refuse!"

This is under the guise of giving gifts, blatantly sowing discord in Liao's internal affairs and fanning the flames.

It must be known that the contemporary Liao lord Yelu Zongzhen is a well-known filial son in the whole world!

Xiao Chenjin, the empress dowager of the Liao State of the current dynasty, is still imprisoned by this filial son in Gyeongju of the Liao State, and is sent to guard day and night, and is not allowed to leave half a step!

The reason why Xiao Shujin was imprisoned is very simple - this empress dowager doesn't like Yelu Zongzhen at all.

Because Yelu Zong really didn't raise her, and he wasn't close to her at all.

Yeluzong was really raised by the late Liao Empress Xiao Bodhisattva since he was a child.

In terms of legal system, Brother Xiao Bodhisattva is the real queen mother of Liao.

It's just that after Yelu Longxu's death, Xiao Shujin took the opportunity to launch a coup d'état, set up the empress dowager himself, imprisoned Xiao Bodhisattva, the queen of Qitian, and then ordered someone to poison the legitimate empress dowager.

Therefore, Yelu Zong really hated Xiao Chenjin, but because he had no power and could not retaliate, he had to endure it.

Xiao Shujin naturally knew that Yelu Zongzhen admired and was close to Xiao Bodhisattva, and also understood that if Yelu Zongzhen was pro-government, he was afraid that he would inevitably be retaliated against, so he planned to strike first, abolish Yelu Zongzhen, and replace his brother Yelu Zongyuan.

After listening to his mother's conspiracy, the prince of Liao actually ran to Yelu Zongzhen to complain and told his mother's conspiracy.

So, after Yelu Zong really knew, he immediately took the first step and launched his own guards of the palace tent, first arrested Xiao Xiaoxian, the privy envoy of the king of Chu, Xiao Xiaojin, and controlled the military power, and then immediately led his troops to raid Xiao Chenjin's dormitory, and killed all his palace guards and cronies, and then sent his mother to the prisoner car and secretly sent to Gyeongju for detention.

This set of combination punches down, Yelu Sect's true prestige was shocked.

The name of his filial son moved the world and spread all over the world.

So, Yelu Zongzhen, who originally wanted to poison Xiao Chenjin, didn't dare to really poison him.

By the way, a bomb was also planted inside the Liao State.

Yelu Zongzhen's eldest son, named Yelu Hongji, is only nine years old this year, but he has been crowned King of Liang and has a palace, an army and ministers.

But at the same time, because Yelu Zongyuan told the truth, Yelu Zongzhen was able to survive and take back power.

So, after the matter was completed, Yelu Zong really named Yelu Zongyuan as the emperor's younger brother.

What is the imperial brother?

It means that after I die, you will sit in the Liaoguo!

At that time, Yelu Zong may have been sincere.

But time can change everything.

What's more, what about this imperial inheritance?

The father who doesn't want his son to inherit his own business?

The story of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty and King Liang can be written in black and white in the history books, and it is clearly and clearly written!
