"Good one" wakes up only to sit in front of the flowers, and gets drunk in exchange for flowers to sleep. "I didn't expect General Zhou to Yunwen and Yunwu, and the export became a chapter. This "drunken sleep among flowers" is quite a legacy of the Wei and Jin dynasties! Zhao Ji applauded and laughed on the bed, then turned to Zhao Kai who was standing on the side and said, "General Zhou and his entourage are busy building a carriage for me, so there is no need to ask." Give the third brother a seat. ”

Zhao Kai could hear that the meaning of his father's words was that he didn't have to track down Zhou Nan and his entourage in the matter of the person who entered the palace last night, so he didn't dare to argue, so he had to sit down and sulk without saying a word.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, where can you have such a literary style? Only this is in Yanjing, staying in the city of Min Zhong Temple, next to the guest house to see someone on the wall. Because I like these two sentences wild and detached, the language is shallow and meaningful, so I remember. In front of this "peerless talented" merry emperor, Zhou Nan didn't dare to pretend to be a literati even if he was killed, so he casually read out two lines of poetry from others, and he also quickly cleared up the relationship.

"I didn't expect that there were such elegant and elegant people in Yandi!" Zhao Ji praised.

Zhou Nan took the opportunity to say, "The people of Yandi, a hundred years ago, were all Han people, or were taken captive in Hebei by the Fan, or fled to Yanjing to avoid military disasters, among which there are many poetry and book heirlooms, Liao admires Chinese culture, and also puts the imperial examination on the matter, selects Han officials, and Yanjing is almost no different from China's big cities." It's a pity that His Majesty the Emperor can't be there in person. ”

Zhao Ji said happily: "I can't imagine that the people of Yandi are so close to China. I want to go to Yanjing, but Yanjing is thousands of miles away, and it is not my country, so I am afraid that the ministers will stop me. ”

Zhou Nan said again: "Yes! A few years ago in Xiongzhou, in Xia Zeng asked the prince to greet His Majesty, His Majesty King Xi can grace the border city of Xiongzhou to reopen, the prince said that the court officials on New Year's Day are on vacation, and they can only reply after the holiday. Today, I am given by His Majesty, and I hope that His Majesty the Emperor will allow the opening of the border market, and issue an order to allow merchants to sell back and forth, and exchange what they have. The people of Yandi look forward to the Chinese tea silk porcelain book, such as looking forward to Ganlin. In this way, the people of Yandi will be grateful for the kindness of His Majesty the Emperor. ”

Zhao Ji said in a deep voice, "The matter of the border market is not a trivial matter, I still have to discuss with the ministers before I have to give General Zhou an answer." ”

Zhou Nan saw that Zhao Ji had already said this, and knew that the matter of opening the border city could not be decided with a single sentence, so he got up and thanked him, "Your Majesty the Emperor has a benevolent heart, and the subjects of the Great Song Dynasty will be able to understand and promote the mutual market between the two dynasties." ”

Seeing that Zhao Ji and Zhou Nan were talking happily, but Zhao Kai himself sat aside, he hated Zhou Nan even more in his heart, and immediately said to Zhao Ji, "Father, the son has to urge his subordinates to carry the treasures left in the Shangqing Palace, if the father is fine, the son will retire." ”

Zhao Ji also knew that Zhao Kai and Zhou Nan were in Xiongzhou, and knew that Zhao Kai didn't want to stay, so he nodded and let Zhao Kai go back.

Seeing that there was no one else in the hall, Zhao Ji asked tentatively, "General Zhou, the two carriages brought by the prince a few years ago are very comfortable to sit in, there is no sense of bumps, and the cars are exquisitely made everywhere, I want to imitate a few, so I went to your country to send a car-making craftsman for dispatch and use." Why is your country unwilling to push back, I don't know what the intention is? ”

"I can't hide it, Your Majesty," Zhou Nan heard Zhao Ji ask about the car-making craftsmen, so he said, "The carriage is made, and it is all made by the craftsmen under the guidance." It is only because our country has only been established for a short time, the boundary is narrow, the radius is less than 500 miles, the treasury is empty, and the officials are still unable to afford it, and they still live in the Minzhong Temple. I couldn't bear to levy it on the people who had just returned home, so I started the idea of a carriage, thinking that it could be sold to the Great Song Dynasty, and it was also some income. ”

When he came to see Zhao Ji today, Zhou Nan made a ruthless heart, praised Da Song and Zhao Ji to the sky, and said that Yanjing was so poor that he was so poor that he came to calm Zhao Ji's heart and let him continue to rest assured of Yanjing. The second is to be able to move Zhao Ji, so that the two countries can open border markets with each other in the future. People become generous and generous to those who are weaker than themselves.

Zhao Ji is full of artistic cells, and most people with artistic temperament are emotional people, so they are easy to be impulsive. Hearing Zhou Nan pour bitter water, he immediately said, "I see." General Zhou turned out to be thinking about the people of Yandi, and I can't blame you for this. Anyway, when the carriage is ready, he will give you 10,000 taels of silver and 20,000 horses of silk, and you will be allowed to send the carriage to Bianjing City to sell it, regardless of whether it is a mutual market in the future, and you will not be charged customs duties. ”

Zhou Nan was overjoyed, hurriedly stood up and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor, for your success." ”

Zhao Ji said teasingly: "Ago, the Emperor of Jin sent someone to ask me why I left the alliance between the two countries, but I shielded Yanjing. I have ordered someone to reply to the letter, saying that Yanjing is a country of the Great Song Dynasty. It's just the nature of the golden man, the tiger and the wolf, and he may not be willing to give up, you have to be careful. ”

Zhou Nan replied, "Thank you Your Majesty for reminding me, it's just that the Jin people have already attacked the area of Pingzhou and Yuguan a few days ago." With my army of 50,000 there, and with the help of explosive arrows, we will surely be able to repel the golden people. ”

"Is that the explosive arrow the arrow you shot at the golden envoy outside the Xuande Gate the day before yesterday?" As soon as Zhao Ji heard the bombing arrow, he became interested.

"Exactly." Zhou Nan saw that Zhao Ji asked about the bombing arrow, and he didn't dare to say more, for fear that Zhao Ji would open his mouth to ask him for the bombing arrow.

"I wonder if my Great Song Dynasty might have made such explosive arrows?" Zhao Ji asked around the corner.

"This explosive arrow must be made with a mountain spring water in the Yizhou Mountains, and in addition, it must be smashed by picking rocks from the sunny part of the mountain, soaking it in the mountain spring water until it is soft, and then mixed with other things before it can be made. Among them, there is 100,000 sulfur sent by Tong Xuanfu last year. It's a pity that 100,000 catties of sulfur only had to blow up 2,000 arrows. Zhou Nan said with a deliberate sigh.

"100,000 catties of sulfur to get 2,000 arrows? No wonder it's so powerful. Zhao Ji said disappointedly.

Zhou Nan said again: "It stands to reason that this explosive arrow is also due to His Majesty the Emperor, but most of the explosive arrows are sent in the front-line army, and only fifty arrows were brought when they came down. ”

Zhao Ji was already hopeless about the explosive arrows, and Zhou Nan said that he would offer thirty explosive arrows to himself, and Zhao Ji was also overjoyed, with these thirty explosive arrows, it was enough to be of great use.

The two talked in the palace for a long time, and when they saw lunch, Zhou Nan said goodbye, Zhao Ji thought in his heart that the people who sneaked into the palace last night did not stay, but said, "In the afternoon, I will send the chamberlain to the post house, the carriage is built for me and the emperor, what materials and craftsmen are needed, even if you put it forward, you don't need your entourage to look around, there are all kinds of materials in the palace." ”

Zhou Nan thought that the treasures in the inner treasury of the palace could be used by himself, and he couldn't help but feel overjoyed, and agreed with a smile, and then left the palace.
