Chapter 153: The Shameful Emperor
Hahahaha! It's Aiqing who has a way, you are out of the horse, this kid really appeared, now, your head can grow on your neck to see me......" Zhao Ji was very happy, and specially summoned Gao Yu into the palace, and said so in the first sentence......
Gao Qiu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood, and then broke out in a cold sweat, isn't this kid already dead? Why did he suddenly reappear?
If it weren't for his henchman Yu Hou lying, this guy would have really come back from the dead!
But both of these are terrible situations......
In the first case, if even his henchman Yu Hou Lu Qian lied to himself, would there be anyone around him who could use it and dared to use it? Who else can be trusted?
In the second case, it is even more terrifying...... Of course, the odds of this happening are slim and almost impossible......
In this case, that's the first thing that happens......
Gao Yu has observed that kid, but he is actually a scholar who has no power to restrain the chicken, let the master Lu Qian deal with it, and there is absolutely no possibility of survival! Unless Lu Qian decides not to kill him himself......
What is the huge benefit that allows his henchmen to be pulled out of his hand and betray himself like this? Could it be that that kid has great excellence in some aspects, even surpassing himself?
Thinking of this, Gao Yu raised his eyes and quietly glanced at the emperor......
I feel that I can't think about this matter anymore...... If that kid has anything more powerful than himself, then the root can only be found in the person in front of him! The person in front of him is the emperor, the most powerful person in the world......
"Your Majesty, you must be going on a study tour, right? He's a scholar......"
"Hahahaha, yes, yes! That's what he said, and the new one is wonderful......
Angry hair rushed to the crown, leaning on the railing, Xiaoxiao rain rest. Raise your eyes, look up to the sky and roar, and be fierce. Thirty fame, dust and earth, eight thousand miles of clouds and moons. Don't wait, the young man's head is white, empty and sad. Jing Kang is ashamed, and it is still snowing. When the courtiers hate, when will they perish. Driving a long car to break through the lack of Helan Mountain. Zhuang is hungry for Hulu meat, laughing and thirsty for Xiongnu blood. Wait to start from the beginning, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and ...... to the sky"
Gao Yu gasped and said, "Your Majesty, this son is anti-hearted!"
"Oh? How did I only see the meaning of serving the country with enthusiasm from beginning to end? ”
"Your Majesty, stay from the beginning, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and face the sky? What is he going to do? How can he face Tianque? ”
"I was furious when I heard this, but then I listened to his explanation, and I was relieved!
The old rivers and mountains that he wants to clean up from the beginning are our Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, which are indeed the rivers and mountains that belong to our Han family, the hometown of Yan Zhao......
Chaotian Que, of course, the real Heavenly Palace...... Aiqing knows that my father and the emperor have made an appointment to regain Yanyun's hometown and be crowned king......"
"Minister...... Shallow ......"
"You like to be like them now, you know how to pretend you don't understand, you know how to pretend you don't know...... What's there to keep secret?
In the fourth year of Yuanfeng, Emperor I decided to deter Western Xia and dispatched more than 300,000 forbidden troops.
The army was divided into five routes, and they went to the Western Xia in a mighty manner, vowing to destroy the Western Xia in one fell swoop.
Although Xia often harassed my border in the Great Song Dynasty, it was just a small fight and took advantage of it, and they were actually losing their courage......
For a while, seeing that my Great Song Dynasty forbidden army was swept over, the Western Xia, who knew how many catties and taels he had, immediately asked the Liao State for help.
The Liao State was also in a dilemma.
In the past, when the Great Song Dynasty attacked the Western Xia, the Liao State always tried its best to mediate between it in order to protect the Western Xia and contain our Great Song Dynasty......
But this time the Song Dynasty is menacing, and it is not possible to persuade him to retreat in a few words.
The determination of the Emperor of the Emperor has been decided, unless the Liao sends troops to join forces with the Western Xia to fight against the Song Dynasty, the 300,000 troops of the Emperor of the Emperor will never retreat......
After thinking about it, Liao still felt that it was better not to wade into this troubled water. And the scheming Liao nobles plan to get a piece of the pie. So he sent an envoy to ask for the ten counties in Guannan.
I met with the Liao envoy and knew the meaning of the Liao country.
In that year, Song Liao made an alliance with Yuanyuan, and Liao recognized that the ten counties in Guannan belonged to Song, and Song compensated Liao with 300,000 yuan every year.
Since the signing of the Covenant, the two countries have always adhered to the Covenant, commensurate themselves as brothers, and have been at peace with each other.
Now that it has come to this critical juncture, Liao wants to take advantage of the fire to rob and re-raise the sensitive issue of the ten counties in Guannan.
If these ten counties were ceded to the Liao State, the Liao State would naturally watch from the wall in the Song and Xia wars.
If the request of the Liao State is refused, then when attacking the Western Xia, it will inevitably be hindered by the Liao State.
Liao's request has betrayed the alliance of the Yuanyuan.
The ten counties of Guannan have long been divided and understood in the covenant, and making such demands at this time will inevitably cause harm to the people of the Great Song Dynasty.
If you talk about it in detail, how can the sixteen states of Youyun occupied by the Liao State not be the territory of the Great Song Dynasty?
The Manchu dynasty, although indignant, but the Western Xia war was imminent, and could only quickly reach an agreement with the Liao State.
After discussions between the two countries, the Liao State said that it was okay not to want the ten counties in Guannan, but the Song Dynasty had to raise the 300,000-year-old coins in the Lanyuan Alliance to 500,000.
Once a covenant has been made, it must not be easily changed. The Liao State took advantage of the war between the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia to rob and tamper with the covenant, which is really despicable.
But even so, for the sake of the overall situation, my Da Song still agreed to this unreasonable request!
After discussing with the Liao State, the Song army immediately advanced towards Western Xia. When Western Xia saw that the Liao State did not come to the rescue, he was not only disheartened, but also added to the tragic spirit of fighting to the death.
In the end, although the Great Song Dynasty forbidden army went deep into the hinterland of Western Xia and defeated Western Xia, it was forced to return by the severe cold of Western Xia.
Although the Western Xia avoided the disaster of losing the country, it was also a great loss of vitality and lost a lot of land.
The final victor is only Liao.
Without dispatching a single soldier, he obtained 200,000 coins for nothing.
Emperor I failed to destroy Xia, and was extorted 200,000 coins by Liao, and he was angry with the smoke of the seven orifices. Since then, he has been haunted by Liao's violation of the covenant until he died depressed, and he gritted his teeth and left his last words: 'Those who can recover the sixteen states of Yanyun, even if they are not surnamed Zhao, can be crowned kings. ’
Emperor I thought that the Liao State's request for an increase of 200,000 coins and the demand for the ten counties in Guannan had already breached the contract.
Since this is the case, don't blame yourself for bringing up the matter of Yanyun's Sixteen Prefectures again.
But the last words of Emperor Zhen did not attract too many people's attention, because strong and fierce people are already rare to see in my Great Song Dynasty! Now everyone is only holding their own bottles and cans, for fear of breaking them. Yan Yun's hometown has long been forgotten by them......
I, the emperor and this son, have not done a good job! It was really emotional to suddenly hear such a magnificent and fierce voice......"
