The three years of Baoqing in the Great Song Dynasty are an inconspicuous wave in the long history of more than 300 years of the two dynasties of the Great Song Dynasty.

However, although the waves are small, savor them carefully, there are still two earth-shattering events quietly happening.

After leveling the vast expanse west of the desert, the Mongols returned their attention to the south with countless slaves and prisoners of war, and with the supreme glory of blood-stained red. Europe should be grateful to the Jin State, because Mu Huali, the general of the expedition to the south, died of illness in the war with the Jin State, which made Temujin, who had a deep relationship with him, so angry that he ordered to return to the army from the banks of the Indus River, ended the first western expedition, and brazenly launched a war against Monan.

As a relatively weak country, and also as a guy who gets in the way next to the Mongolian war, he was the first to be targeted, under the pretext that the Western Xia did not fulfill the covenant, Genghis Khan, the proud son of the sky, captured Zhongxingfu, the capital of the Western Xia, at the end of the summer of this year, killed its last emperor Li Xian, slaughtered the city, and wiped out the species of the Western Xia Kingdom.

As a result, on the west side of the territory of the Song Dynasty, in the area bordering Western Xia, the Mongols appeared in vain.

Temujin was not entirely aware of the military strength of the two large empires in the south, and if the Song dynasty was as tricky as the Jin state, it would not be wise to engage two powerful enemies at the same time.

So in July of this year, before he died of illness, he made the decision to join the Song Dynasty to attack Jin, and left the famous legacy of "false Tao in the Song Dynasty to destroy Jin".

The Mongol general Buhanan was given the task of attacking Western Xia and harassing and probing the Southern Song Dynasty border while attacking him.

At the same time, the envoys sent to form an alliance with the Southern Song Dynasty were also on the way, stabbing their allies while negotiating an alliance, and it was not the first time that the Mongols had done this.

In the war with the Western Liao, Temujin had such a hand with the countries of the Western Regions.

Buhanan's task was completed very smoothly, he almost entered the realm of no one in Hanzhong, Guanlong north of the area galloping, the attack must be victorious, except for a few cities encountered slight resistance and was slaughtered, did not meet a decent opponent, the Southern Song Dynasty and the northern gateway of the four major Rong Division like paper paste generally did nothing, Buhanan Shun came smoothly, casually walked, did not even wave his sleeves, known as the "Dinghai Change" in history.

In addition to killing people, robbing goods, and bringing back a large number of Han Chinese slaves like cattle, Buhanan also brought back an important piece of information.

The Song Empire in the south, which looked huge, was actually a very weak guy.

At least for now, yes.

The other thing is the Southern Song Dynasty's own business.

The minister of power, Shi Miyuan, went to the book of Lizong and asked to posthumously confer Zhu Xi, a master of science, as the Taishi, and posthumously seal the letter to the Duke of Guo. Li Zongyue agreed with the edict, and from then on, Cheng Zhu Lixue, as an important school of Confucianism, officially entered the court, and as an important ideological weapon to consolidate his rule, it was written into the history books.

When the news came out, the literati of the whole country rejoiced, sang praises to Li Zong, praised Shi Miyuan, and although Shi Miyuan, who was sixty-three years old at the time, the situation was further stabilized.

One inside and one outside, two seemingly unrelated things, are actually inextricably linked together.

The Mongolian envoy Su Buhan stood in a hall in Lin'an City, he craned his neck and looked at the colorful carvings painted red and green on the magnificent beams.

He was dressed in a leather robe, tall in stature, with a scimitar and leather boots on his waist, and stood out among the crowd of Song people who were whispering in splendid costumes, and he probably heard a mocking voice beside him that was not very friendly, so he turned his face and looked around fiercely, and suddenly the whole hall was silent.

"Why hasn't your prime minister come yet? How long will I have to wait? Su Buhan roared impatiently, standing here, there was an urge in his heart that a wolf saw the sheep, if he didn't quickly use negotiation to divert his attention, he would definitely be unable to help but slash the head of the housekeeper who looked very obscene, and then snatched the young and beautiful maid beside him, and ravaged it at will.

"Your Excellency, please wait, my master will be here soon." The butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion replied decently, he was a little arrogant, and he was also a little disapproving of these barbarians.

Su Buhan snorted in his nostrils, turned around, sat down on a chair in a big way, and stroked the smooth yellow rosewood, as a Mongolian who is proficient in Chinese, he has also been to the Central Plains Jiangnan several times, but this is the first time he has seen such luxurious furnishings.

The wolf nature and greed in his eyes swished outward, and the people standing around him who were serving tea and water all looked sideways, and they didn't dare to approach in fright, and there was a maid who had the courage to hand him tea, and was pulled into his arms by Su Buhan, sniffed and sniffed, and the monkey anxious look frightened the maid and screamed.

Su Buhan laughed, his hands went up and down, and the people in the hall looked at each other, they couldn't believe that the envoy of a country was so rude, and no one reacted for a while.

However, a shout of "the prime minister has arrived" rescued the maid in a timely manner, Su Buhan pushed the maid casually with dissatisfaction, stood up, and looked at the door with a glittering eye,

Shi Miyuan's not very tall figure appeared at the door.

"It's an old man." Su Buhan snorted, stood still, and arched his hand.

"Ten thousand households in the Great Mongolian Kingdom, Su Buhan, the ambassador of the Song Dynasty, has seen the prime minister." The tone was arrogant, and Su Buhan didn't even bend his body.

Everyone in the hall frowned, such an impolite barbarian was really rude.

Shi Miyuan didn't even change his face, he was of medium stature, neither fat nor thin, with three tufts of beard flowing and natural, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and a good temperament, not at all like the power minister who used countless means in the officialdom and killed people without blood, but had some appearances outside the peace.

"Your Excellency, please take a seat, no need to be polite." Shi Miyuan said with a smile, walked to the seat at the top and sat down, pointed to the chair on the left, and motioned for Su Buhan to sit down.

Su Buhan looked at the chair, raised it, walked over unnaturally, and sat down.

In every move, although Shi Miyuan didn't have a word of strength, he naturally became a strong man in momentum.

"Your envoy has come from afar, and I don't know what important matters you have to discuss with our country?" Shi Miyuan was still smiling, as if he hadn't noticed the slight change in Su Buhan's expression, and asked kindly: "The official family is busy, and he wants me to discuss with your envoy first." ”

Su Buhan also sat upright, and he found that although the officials of the Song Dynasty spoke softly on the surface, they were not as kind as they looked, such as the one in front of him, the city was very deep, and he was tempted by his words, but he didn't even have a trace of confidence.

He got serious, arched his hand towards Shi Miyuan again, and then reached into his arms and took out a roll of parchment.

"Genghis Khan of the Great Mongolian Empire, sent an official and sent a letter, please take a look at the prime minister." He handed the parchment scroll to the official family, who forwarded it to Shi Miyuan: "The letter made clear the intention of the lower official, please make a decision." ”

Before he knew it, he even changed his name.

"Oh?" Shi Miyuan narrowed his eyes, unfolded the scroll and looked at it hastily, silently, without even picking his eyelids, as if he was looking at a roll of white paper.

Su Buhan quietly watched his reaction, and the more he looked at it, the more confused he became, didn't the letter write it clearly?

"This matter is very important, and I have to report it to the official family before I can have the following. Please go to the official post to stay temporarily, and someone will go to entertain the envoy in the next few days and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River. Shi Miyuan still had an expression that Taishan collapsed in front of him and his color remained unchanged, he was indifferent, put the scroll away, and said with a smile: "When the official family has a decision, I will discuss it with your envoy." ”

Of course, Su Buhan was dissatisfied, he originally thought that the Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom had a deep hatred, and after reading the documents of the alliance, he would immediately take the case and make an alliance covenant on the spot, and he would go back in time to pay the errand.

Shi Miyuan's style made him helpless, so he had to drink the cup of delicious Longjing in one gulp, arch his hand, and leave.

As soon as the others left, Shi Miyuan jumped up.

He laughed and jumped frantically in the hall, took out the roll of parchment, glanced at it, laughed, looked at it again, laughed again, and laughed again, his crazy posture made the people around him even more shocked than when he saw Su Buhan just now.

"Hahahaha! The Mongols are stupid, they want to borrow my Great Song knife to kill people, they are as stupid as pigs! They think that there is no one in my Great Song Dynasty, and they can't see through their wishful thinking, but they don't know that there are people outside the sky, people who ride horses and herd cattle, and they also want to calculate the Great Song Dynasty capable people who read the books of sages? ”

"The praying mantis flutters the cicada and the yellow finch is behind! He wants to borrow my sword from the Great Song Dynasty, but I don't want to borrow his hand? Shi Miyuan laughed so much that he almost turned his back on his breath, panting and holding on to the table before he could barely restrain himself, and muttered to himself: "God-given opportunity!" I didn't expect that my Shi Mi was too old to pass the sixtieth year, but I came to such a great achievement, I can't say, this famous history, I want to decide! The king is the king, the plan of the sky, at this time! ”
