"Dali from the Taizu jade axe to cross the river, and my Song Dynasty lips and teeth intersect, has been three hundred years, the successive generations of Dali kings, every time the old lord dies, the new emperor ascends the throne, will send a letter of state, canonized by my Song Dynasty, given a jade plate, can be established as orthodox." Li Zong stroked his beard and said: "But since Gaozong crossed to the south, this form of friendship has not continued, so that in my generation, there has been an incident of the two countries fighting each other, which is not good, since the eldest grandson is the prince of Dali, and I am an official of the Great Song Dynasty, I can maneuver around and pull the relationship between the two countries back to its original position." ”

"What I mean is that I hope that Dali will be able to share the glory and disgrace with the Great Song Dynasty in the future, and become one, after all, after so many years, get along well, and now face the dilemma of the northern captives going south, they are all the same difficulties, if the northern captives break Sichuan, Dali is naturally difficult to protect itself, it is better to connect with the Great Song Dynasty and protect the family and country together, wouldn't it be better?"

When Rijong spoke, he looked at Changsun Hong with high expectations, kind eyes, and friendly attitude, and could see that these words came from his heart.

The eldest grandson Hong understood that Li Zong wanted to bring Dali closer, hoping that Dali could help the Song Dynasty when it was related to the country.

Dali is a barbarian regime, and the Central Plains Dynasty, if close or separate, its own faction, it doesn't matter if the Great Song Dynasty dies, it's a big deal to hug the thigh of the next dynasty, but the Song Dynasty is not good now, Dali's attitude has risen to an important position.

Dali is located in the southwest, close to Sichuan Liangguang, from Dali domestic troops, can be directly inserted into the Song Dynasty's soft underbelly, because in order to resist the threat from the north, the Song Dynasty can fight the generals and strong army, are placed on the Yangtze River Huai River, stay in Liangguang, are some weak pawns.

In the official history, after Kublai Khan's sneak attack on Dali, Wuliang Hatai sent troops from then on, ravaged Guangnan Road, almost approaching Jiangnan with a sweeping attitude, Xiang Shibi became famous in the battle of Tanzhou, he nailed in Tanzhou, blocked the Mongols' troops, and saved the financial resources of the Song Dynasty.

After listening to Li Zong's words and understanding the meaning of the words, Changsun Hong raised his head in a little surprise and glanced at Li Zong.

The emperor can see this, in fact, he has a lot of vision.

And it's rare to be able to say sincere words as a country.

This is not quite the same as the mediocre Risjong in my impression.

Moreover, the honorific title of the eldest grandson is respected, and the position of the eldest grandson is raised, which can not be described as a rude corporal, and the posture is very low.

How can the emperor of the dead country be like this?

Eldest Sun Hong was surprised for a moment, then calmed down and began to answer.

If you have a draft in your heart, it will be smooth and natural to say.

"What Your Majesty said is that the last time Mongolia entered the Kou, it almost invaded Dali, but fortunately, the Great Song Dynasty Sichuan system made Wang Kui Zhiyong both complete and desperate fighting, so as to keep the safety of Dali, and Dali is grateful."

"In that war, Xia Guan was fortunate to take Dali Jian'er to fight side by side with the officials and soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, saw the might of the soldiers of the country, and received the mighty national fortune of the Great Song Dynasty.

"Go back to Dali, the lower official talked to the monarch about this matter, the monarch was also amazed, thinking that the Great Song Dynasty will definitely multiply for 10,000 years, this time the official is sent to come, and there is also a desire to pay tribute, these are written clearly in the national book, please pay attention to Your Majesty."

"Oh, sure enough?" Li Zong's eyebrows were raised, his smile rippled, and he picked up the national letter again and read it carefully.

When he put it down, the smile on his face became stronger, he leaned down on the imperial case, raised his eyebrows and said to the eldest grandson: "In this case, I want to reward you well, and the two countries will be good, and the eldest grandson Aiqing will not be able to erase it!" ”

In a good mood, he changed the title of Changsun Hong from an adult to Aiqing, which means that you are my own person in the Great Song Dynasty, and you don't have to see outside.

Of course, Changsun Hong was not outside, he immediately hit the snake with the stick and put forward a foreshadowing.

"Don't dare to ask for a reward, Your Majesty, now Dali is poor and poor, the people live hard, the country's income is tight, and even the Dali Palace is not as good as the chief official of a county and a state in the Great Song Dynasty, the eldest grandson Hong empathizes, how dare you ask for Your Majesty's reward?" The eldest grandson Hong was heartbroken.

"Huh? Is there such a thing? Ritsune was amazed.

"Your Majesty doesn't know, Dali is mostly mountainous, there is no flat land and fertile fields, and farming has to be in the mountain depressions, how to get rich? And some local products, such as tea and the like, because the plank road is difficult and dangerous, the road is far away, it is inconvenient to transport, it cannot be sold at a good price, and the good things outside cannot be transported in, so that the hardship is even worse. ”

Listening to Changsun Hong's complaints, Li Zong was also stunned, he knew about these difficulties in Dali, but when Changsun Hong said these things at this time, he didn't understand very well.

What do you mean, do you want Da Song to reward Dali with some money?

It's not interesting to mention money, I'm talking to you about feelings now.

How good the relationship is, everyone is closely connected, and it is boring to mention money. A gentleman is not ashamed.

So Li Zong has a voice, but he doesn't speak.

Changsun Hong seemed to have anticipated this outcome, and did not ask for money, but asked for another condition.

"Therefore, Your Majesty, Weichen hopes that you can choose a place or a city in Xichuan to set up a field, and the two sides can communicate with each other, and the taxes and fees of the field will be reduced or reduced, so that Dali's specialties can enter the Great Song Dynasty without hindrance, and the good things of the Great Song Dynasty can also be comfortably imported into Dali, and both sides will take what they need, and communicate with each other, isn't it beautiful?"

"Field?" Li Zong was stunned for a moment, and he didn't seem to think that Changsun Hong's next was this.

"This ...... There was a precedent for the field, but ......" he hesitated.

Because the field used to be placed in the direction of the Western Xia and the Jin Kingdom, the nomads obtained copper and iron tea cloth from it, and the Song Dynasty obtained horses, cattle and sheep, and the two sides traded, but it was the people on horseback who took advantage of it and obtained what they could only get by relying on knives before. It was a trading place opened in the Song Dynasty in order to calm the people.

The Song Dynasty resisted this, so when the Western Xia and Jin kingdoms were in decline, they were closed, and when these two countries became strong, they opened up again, repeatedly, tossing and turning.

Dali is going to open, it seems a bit ...... That's it.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the establishment of the field is beneficial and harmless in the Great Song Dynasty." The eldest grandson Hongjin said: "The field can be managed by the Great Song Dynasty, all the laws and regulations, determined by the Great Song Dynasty, Dali can only trade according to the rules, can not be forced, the price of property, can also be set by the Great Song Dynasty Yamen, can not be too high or too low, if the Great Song Dynasty set up a tax card outside the field, collect taxes, then Xichuan's military spending, can be a useful supplement from it, for the Great Song Dynasty treasury, is a good thing." ”

"Oh? That's not bad. When Li Zong heard this, he was a little tempted, this thing can raise money.

Thinking about it carefully, if it really operates like what Changsun Hong said, it seems that there is really no harm, everything is controlled by the officials of the Great Song Dynasty, can it suffer?

And indeed, on the Sichuan side, the military expenditure is high, not to mention that the tax revenue of the entire Sichuan is completely filled in, and the imperial court has to allocate a large amount of money every year to fill the hole.

Set up such a field, the Song Dynasty did not invest a penny, and it could still collect taxes, yes.

"This can be there." Li Zong made a decision: "I will explain to the household department and Yousi, and the plan will come out in a few days." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The eldest grandson Hong's heart is like a big stone falling to the ground, and once the trade route is passed, the rest of the things will be easier to do.

"It's a small thing, don't mind." Li Zong waved his sleeves generously, the Heavenly Empire should be so arrogant in dealing with small countries: "In the future, if there is something in the Great Song Dynasty, Dali can make a hearty effort." ”

"Of course, of course." The eldest grandson Hong got up and arched his hand, and smiled diligently: "The Great Song Dynasty has such a holy king as Your Majesty, and a brave town commander like Meng Heng, Sichuan and Dali must be as stable as a rock and indestructible!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Rizong's hand waving in the air slowly paused.
