"You!" Sun Fu was almost angry, and he pointed at Yelu angrily and couldn't speak.

Yelu unremittingly took out his edict and said, "Your Majesty of my family canonized General Jiang as the king of Sanhan, and sealed all the territory east of the Heilong River, that is, the entire territory of Goryeo!" ”

"Wow!" Everyone couldn't help but shout, this is the king, and he also gave the whole of Goryeo to Jiang De, if you want to talk about sincerity, the sincerity of Liao is much better than Zhao Ji.

Sun Fu didn't expect Yelu Yanxi to dare to give Jiang De a king, he opened his mouth and couldn't speak.

Jiang De was a little stunned, this is different from what he said before, Zhu Wu stepped forward and said, "Lord, the envoy of the Liao Kingdom has drifted from the sea, it is really hard, and the same is true for Lord Sun, it is better to let the two adults rest first." ”

Jiang De thought about it, so he excused himself from being tired and asked both sides to rest, and both of them knew that Jiang De and the others were going to discuss, so they retreated.

"Zhu Wu, what's going on?" When the others left, Jiang De asked some irrelevant people to step down, leaving all the core members, and asked.

Zhu Wu said with a bitter face, "Back to the lord, the subordinates just went out, and they met the person who came to report, the envoy of the Liao State really came, they took a sea ship to make up and entered the city, and they only showed their identities outside the palace, and the subordinates saw that they really came, and it didn't make sense to let the fake ones go, so they let them in."

"So, this Liao envoy is also true?" Huadiao looked at Jiang De in surprise and said, "Village master, you are going to be a prince!" ”

"If I really want to be a prince, I can deserve it, what else do I need to be canonized?" Jiang De said disdainfully, "The Liao State saw that we had repelled the Jin State, so they came to woo us, and they didn't take it seriously." ”

"The lord is wise, but the position of the king of Samhan in Liao can allow us to legally occupy the whole of Goryeo... According to Xiaosheng's opinion, he should receive the canonization of the Liao State. Wu Yong started from the best interests of Liangshan, as long as he accepted the canonization of Liao, he would be a country in the world, which made him excited when he thought about it.

"No!" Lu Junyi shouted, "We are all Song people, and there are many Song people in the army, if we accept the canonization of the Liao State, the army will be uneasy, and the righteousness is lost, so we can't do it!" ”

Jiang De nodded, indicating that what he said made sense.

"The lord of Song only gave the lord a Pingyin marquis, how can the commander Goryeo be justified?" Wu Yong asked rhetorically.

Suddenly, a group of people quarreled, Li Ziqian and other Goryeo ministers lowered their heads and didn't dare to express their opinions at all, Jiang De glanced at him and said, "Master Li, tell me what you think." ”

Li Ziqian was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he was sure that Jiang De was really talking about him, he thought for a while and said, "Commander Hui, Weichen's meaning is very simple, whoever is not our enemy, we will accept their edict." ”

Jiang De closed his eyes and thought for a while, and then said with a smile: "Master Li is really an old man who seeks the country." ”

Xu Guanzhong also smiled and said, "The lord has a plan in his heart? ”

Jiang De nodded and said, "I don't have the surname Zhao or Yelu, my surname is Liangshan!" The short-term goal of our army is to pacify the royal kingdom by force, drive out the Jurchens by strategy, and divide the entire territory of Goryeo.

The medium-term goal of our army is to send troops to the Japanese country, Southeast Asia and other places to occupy the entire ocean.

The long-term goal of our army is to take advantage of the rise of the Jurchens and compete in the Central Plains.

The goal is determined, the next thing is to talk about enemies and friends, in the short-term goal, the Jurchen can be said to be our enemy, but we don't want to really fight with them yet, the Jurchen and the Liao State are mortal enemies, and the Song State has nothing to do with it, and the Liao State and the Song State are allies who can become enemies at any time.

In the long-term goal, because of our origins, our enemies are still the Liao State and the Jurchen State, so we can only accept the canonization of the Song State.

After we accept the canonization of the Song State, although the Liao State will have some resentment in our hearts, it will definitely not and will not be able to fight us, but the Jurchens will be close to us because we rejected the Liao State, giving us the time and environment to eliminate Wang Yu. ”

Jiang De's analysis convinced everyone, and Wu Yong also agreed, saying, "The lord's words are reasonable, if you want to accept the edict of the Zhao official family, the student suggests that the lord leave the capital immediately and lead the troops to Maxiling!" ”

"Will you be outside, will the king's order be affected?" Jiang De squinted and asked.

"Exactly!"

Jiang De nodded and said, "Okay, Master Lu, you and Mr. Wu Xian and Mr. Zhu are sitting here, and I will take Mr. Xu, Niu Gao, Cheng Min, Wu Song, Huang Xin and others to Maxiling." ”

Lu Junyi and the others arched their hands and said, "We will definitely guard our foundation." ”

Jiang De left with the vanguard overnight, and when Sun Fu and Yelu came to look for Jiang De the next day, they were surprised to find that the person they were looking for was gone.

"Lord Wu, what do you mean by this? Is it because you are unwilling to accept the canonization of our country? Why did General Jiang leave overnight? Jeremiah was the first to say angrily.

"Yes, no matter what, you should wait for me to give an explanation before leaving! That's rude! Sun Fu also said dissatisfiedly.

Wu Yong said apologetically, "I'm really sorry for the two envoys, but my general is also helpless, just last night, the stars on the front line came to report that the puppet king Wang Yu raised 200,000 troops, claiming to wipe out our army within two months, and at this time it was almost out of Ma Xiling." ”

"Two hundred thousand? Hou Ye may cope? "Sun Fu took a trick and directly called Jiang De Hou Ye, which means that it doesn't matter if you take it or not, anyway, I'll call it that first.

Wu Yong snorted and said, "The 200,000 are said to be troops, but most of them are farmers, and my general regards them as local chickens and dogs." ”

"Since General Jiang is gone, then I will catch up, if I don't accept the canonization of His Majesty, my task will not be completed, and I will not be able to leave." After Jerod finished speaking, he prepared to go back and pack his things and catch up.

Wu used a turn to stop him and said with a smile, "Yelu envoy doesn't need to be like this, my general said, he used to be just a grass coward, he was valued by the Zhao official family, recruited as an important minister, and sent troops to Goryeo without authorization, and was forgiven by the Zhao official family, the Zhao official family is as kind as the sea and the mountains, and he really dare not turn his back, as for the meaning of the Liao lord, my general has already knew, and my general has prepared a return gift to bring to the Liao lord, but this canonization does not dare to accept it." ”

Sun Fu was overjoyed when he heard this, and nodded his head to express his satisfaction, while Yelu said angrily, "Okay!" Since you dare to be so rude, offending our Khitan will not end well! ”

Wu Yong's face suddenly darkened, and he said gloomily, "Yelu envoy, is this what you mean or what you mean by Liao?" ”

Of course, Yelu wanted to say that this was what Liao Guo meant, but was stopped by a person next to him, who was young, his face was not impatient, and he looked a little dark, but he was a healthy wheat color.

"This is just the meaning of our Yelu envoy, I hope Lord Wu will not take it to heart, we still have a common enemy, Jurchen, even if we can't be close friends, we don't have to be enemies."

Wu Yong looked at the person and asked with great interest, "I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”

The man replied, "In Xia Wuyan to prolong his life, he is just a nobody." ”

Wu Yong smiled and said, "I think you are more suitable to be the envoy, several envoys, if you want, you can play for a few more days, if you don't want to, we will escort you back to Liaodi." ”

"Humph! No more, let's go on our own! Yelu said with an unhappy face.

After Yelu left unremittingly, Wu Yong looked at Sun Fu again, and Sun Fu shook his head and said, "Lord Jiang's loyalty to the imperial court, I have already seen it in my eyes, let Lord Jiang come out and be sealed." ”

Wu said with an expression that you didn't have a problem with your brain, "Master Sun, didn't you hear my words just now?" My general has already gone to the front, and if you really want to go, you can go on your own. ”

"What? Did Jiang Xinzhi really go to the front? ”

"Who is still kidding you?"

At first, Sun Fu thought that Jiang Xinzhi went to the front line to perfunctory those Liao envoys, but he didn't expect it to be true.

"Do you accept or not accept the will of the official family?"

"My general said that he is still Song Chen, since he is Song Chen, we will naturally accept the will of Zhao Guan's family."

"Since you have accepted the canonization, please let Marquis Jiang come back immediately, and follow me back to Beijing to face the saint!"

"Lord Sun, this is a bit difficult for a strong man, our army is at war, you want my general to leave at this time, what you know is to go back to accept the canonization, and those who don't know think that my general is afraid of war." Wu Yong said and stepped forward and said, "My general attaches great importance to Goryeo, the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and the Liao envoy has not gone far, so don't miss the official plan!" ”

Sun Fu swallowed his saliva, he had the intention to force Jiang De to Kaifeng, but in the end he still didn't say it.

Wu Yong said again, "Besides, on this battlefield, the sword has no eyes, no one knows what will happen, it is naturally okay for adults to go, but please sign the life and death certificate first, and we will explain the rest to the official family!" ”

Saying that, several murderous big men walked in with a ghost-headed big knife in one hand and a pen, ink, paper and inkstone in the other, Sun Fu looked at these big men, and did not doubt at all that as soon as he signed this name, his head would be cut off.

"Lord Sun, although there are no people in the domestic court, there are many outlaws in the rivers and lakes, we dare not do things that subvert the world, but it is not difficult to take the head of an official, how to inform the official family of this matter after Lord Sun goes back, please think about it more." As he spoke, Wu Yong waved his hand, and several guards walked in with a box, and when they opened it, inside was a Buddha statue cast in gold. This was taken from the treasury of the Goryeo king.

Sun Fu

In the end, Sun Fu handed over the canonization edict to Wu Yong, and returned to China with a few boxes, and along the way, he was thinking about how to explain to Zhao Ji.

He really didn't dare to risk it with his head, and by the time he returned to Kaifeng, it was already winter.

"Master Sun, you're back!" As soon as Sun Fu entered the city, several people rushed out and surrounded him.

Sun Fu was startled, and looked at it, ah, yes, I know, this is not Yan Qing of Qionglou.

As an official with a large official position, he and Yan Qing still met.

"Isn't this Brother Yan? I haven't seen you for a long time, but I want to kill your Qionglou's wine along the way, and I will come to your Qionglou to relax after I meet the official's family. Sun Fu said politely, he knew that this Yan Xiaoyi had seen more than he had seen the official family.

"Master Sun, don't worry, Master Taishi asked me to bring you a message."

Sun Fu was stunned for a moment, and asked Zhengse, "What does the Taishi command?" ”

Yan Qing looked around, and then said in a low voice, "The treasury has not yet had enough money and food, and it is easy for Song and Liao to go to war, Jiang Xinzhi is extremely belligerent, if he returns to China, he will either rebel or open up border troubles, which will only bring disaster to the country and the people, and it is best to let him never return to China." ”

Saying that, Yan Qing said in a low voice, "Please also ask Master Sun to tell me where Jiang Xinzhi is now, and the Taishi will naturally handle other things." ”

Sun Fu only felt that his back was full of cold sweat when he heard this, what did this mean? Want to kill Jiang Xinzhi?

Sun Fu swallowed his saliva, and then said, "Jiang Pingyin did not return to China. ”

"That's right..."Yan Qing lowered her head and said, "Then I'll go back to Taishi." ”

Sun Fu looked at Yan Qing's back, and suddenly rejoiced that Jiang Xinzhi did not return to China with him, otherwise once Jiang Xinzhi died in his ranks, his head would inevitably be sent out in order to extinguish the anger of those bandits. Even if they don't get sent out, there will be endless assassinations.

Sun Fu realized at this time what kind of game he was in, and at this time, he couldn't help but pray secretly to God.

In the Yanfu Palace, Zhao Ji wore a Taoist robe and practiced for a while before he opened his eyes and asked, "Why didn't Jiang Xinzhi come?" ”

Sun Fu had already thought of his words on the way here, and replied, "Go back to the official's house, then Jiang Xinzhi originally wanted to come back, but the former king of Goryeo suddenly raised troops, and the two armies were in the middle of a battle, Jiang Pingyin really couldn't take the time to go back to Beijing to ask the official's family for his guilt..."

Zhao Ji's face was still gloomy, and Sun Fu hurriedly said again, "Official, this time Weichen went to Goryeo and found that the Liao envoy was also there, and he was going to give Jiang Pingyin the crown." ”

"What? The Liao people want to give Jiang Xinzhi the title of king? What king? Zhao Ji immediately asked.

"King Sanhan, as long as Jiang Pingyin has this title, he can justifiably attack Goryeo, but Jiang Pingyin is indeed loyal and patriotic, not only did he not accept it, but drove the Liao envoy out of Goryeo."

Anyway, no one knows how the Liao envoy went, so Sun Fu said it casually.

"Oh? As long as it is said, why didn't Jiang Xinzhi return to the Hajj? Zhao Ji asked again.

"Official, the only explanation is probably that this war is real." Sun Fu said with some hesitation.

Zhao Ji looked at Cai Jing next to him, Cai Jing bowed his head and said, "Emperor, the appearance of the Liao envoy must represent that the Liao lord wants to win over Jiang Xinzhi, the Jurchen seems to have put a lot of pressure on the Liao State, Jiang Xinzhi is in Goryeo, if Xiang Liao, the Jurchen will suffer from the enemy." ”

Zhao Ji nodded, and then said, "What should I do?" ”

Cai Jing said, "Since Jiang Xinzhi has rejected the canonization of the Liao lord, it means that his heart is still to Song. Or should it be soothed. ”

Sun Fu looked at Cai Jing and thought to himself that the Taishi really only wanted this Jiang Xinzhi not to come back.

Zhao Ji said hatefully, "That Liangshan? ”

"It can't be destroyed for the time being, but heavy troops should be sent to surround it." Cai Jing said.

Zhao Ji hummed and agreed.
