Chapter 587: Zhao Ji of Huizong who slammed the door
Yongzhou is the state capital of Jinghu South Road, although Li Nan is not afraid of the conspiracy of the Song State, but he will not be stupid enough to enter the enemy city to negotiate, so the location agreed by the two sides is on a high post in the south of the city.
There was originally a small village near this Gaogang, but when Fang La led a million-strong rebellion, it not only set off a bloody storm in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, but even the state capital of Jinghu was not spared.
In order to escape the bandits and rebels, the village was uninhabited and became an abandoned and deserted village.
In recent days, in order to prepare for negotiations with Zhennanguo, some officials have already led people to build a pergola that can block the sun on the high post, and at this moment, 500 elite forbidden soldiers from Tokyo City are standing near the pergola with swords and guns in hand, looking majestic and murderous.
There were several officials of the Great Song Dynasty sitting in the pergola, and the blonde with golden eyes, huge mouth, extraordinary appearance, and blazing eyes in the middle was the young ruler of the dynasty.
Although Wang Hao has no knowledge and relies on clever words to flatter the throne, he is not good-looking, eloquent, and intelligent, otherwise he would not have created a history of the Great Song Dynasty, that is, he was promoted to the eighth rank from the general doctor and became the prime minister of the Song Kingdom.
Behind the tables on both sides of the shed, there were still Zhizhou, Tongju, and the commander of the Xiang Army on Jinghu South Road.
A thick wooden stake was erected outside the pergola, and a person was tied to it, although this person was scarred and fell into a coma, but it was vaguely clear that he was Zhang Shuye, the envoy of the Five Roads who was in charge of conquering Zhennanguo.
Zhizhou Lu Jie looked at the scorching sun rising to the middle of the sky, and said flatteringly to Wang Huang: "Wang Xianggong, the time is almost up, it seems that the anti-king in the south is afraid of your prestige, so he doesn't dare to come." ”
Although Wang Hao is greedy for money and lustful, he is not a stupid person, how can Li Nan, the lord of Zhennan, who occupies Jiaozhi, Dali and Zhancheng, and has already conquered the land of the six states of the Great Song Dynasty, be afraid of himself?
Glaring at Lu Zhizhou, Wang Hao snorted coldly in displeasure.
patted the horse's feet on the horse's feet, Lu Zhizhou could only smile wryly and shut his mouth knowingly.
A few hours later, just after noon, a dull sound was faintly heard from afar, and a large cloud of smoke and dust was also raised from the south.
In the blink of an eye, I saw fifty war elephants covered in steel armor and shining blades tied to their tusks, galloping towards this high post in an arrow-like formation.
Elephants are the largest animals on land, but they are not slow, they can reach speeds of up to 20 kilometers per hour, and who can not be afraid of such a herd of war elephants rushing at their own speed?
This time, the 500 forbidden troops who were responsible for protecting Wang Huang, the minister sent by the Qin to negotiate in the south, were all elite, but they had never seen such a terrifying war elephant, and they had already been frightened and trembling, if it were not for the fear of being punished, they might have fled long ago.
The five hundred forbidden troops were frightened half to death by the war elephant herd, not to mention Wang Hao and other Song officials in the pergola, and the Zhizhou Lord Lu on Jinghu South Road was already wet at this moment.
Just when the officers and soldiers of the Song State in the high post were in fear, the war elephant herd had already come to the front of the post, and under the control of the soldiers on the elephant road, fifty war elephants stopped together.
The elephant herd slowly parted in a sharp array of arrows, and an exceptionally tall and strong war elephant walked to the front, and on the golden elephant inlaid with various colored gems stood a handsome man wearing a dragon robe and a golden crown, exuding a graceful and luxurious atmosphere, which was Li Nan, the lord of Zhennan Kingdom.
"Hahaha!" Li Nan looked at the people sitting under the pergola, and laughed loudly: "Xianggong Wang, this king is not late, right?" ”
Wang Huang is the prime minister of the Great Song Dynasty, although he is frightened at the moment, but he still has a bit of the city's bearing after all, he is in a high position, he reluctantly stood up, fixed his mind and said loudly: "The prince doesn't need to be polite. ”
"Wang Xianggong, you are the official of the Great Song Dynasty, call me the prince, aren't you afraid that someone will reproach you after you go back?"
Li Nan's question is not easy to answer, and if he goes back a little carelessly, it will really be a big disaster.
Fortunately, Wang Hao's reaction was very fast, he glanced at the other Great Song officials around him, and said calmly: "If it was some time ago, the old man was really worried about this matter, but now it is not. ”
Wang Hao pointed to the imperial decree wrapped in yellow silk on the table, and said: "Lord Wang, you were originally the capital of Yanggu County, and after coming to Tokyo City, you entered the Hanlin Painting Academy because of your unparalleled words and paintings, and was named the doctor of the Zhengwupin Middle School, the edict of the Hanlin Painting Academy, and then served as the commander of the right wing of the Shenwei Army, the champion general, the commander of the Shenwei Army, and finally was appointed as the pacification envoy of Guangnan West Road......
These are all official positions that Li Nan has obtained all the way in the Great Song Dynasty, and they are not secrets, but when he heard Wang Hao coming one by one, he couldn't help but think of the events of the year.
"Speaking of which, the prince was originally a common man of my Great Song Dynasty, and he has also received the grace of the saint several times, but he has done some out-of-the-ordinary things after coming to Lingnan......"
Hearing this, Li Nan's face couldn't help but smile, what he did was to become a thief after capturing the enemy country, this prime minister was worried about angering himself, it was really enough to understate.
"When the saint usually watched the "Hundred Beautiful Pictures", he also mentioned the old man of the prince many times...... Although some unpleasant things happened some time ago, the saint is a person who loves talents and cherishes talents, so he is very willing to rebuild the old friendship with the prince and renew the relationship between the monarch and the minister. ”
Wang Hao talked endlessly, and Li Nan also understood the meaning of the other party while standing in the elephant.
Mingli is Huizong Zhao Ji remembered the old friendship between the two, so he was willing to crown Li Nan as the king, and the two sides maintained a peaceful posture. The real reason for the secret, Li Nan also knew, was that the Song State was making every effort to prepare for the Northern Expedition, and it was no longer able to wage war with the powerful Zhennan Kingdom in the south.
I have to say that the method discussed by Huizong and his civil and military ministers is not bad, if Tong Guan can really snatch back the sixteen states of Yanyun from the Liao State this time, then there will be a sinister barrier in the north that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
After having the sixteen states of Yanyun, the Great Song Dynasty did not need to station 300,000 troops on the Fourth Road in Hebei, and it was time to clean up the southern anti-king Li Nan.
Looking at Wang Huang's actor-level performance, listening to the hypocritical language he said, Li Nan interrupted him and asked directly: "It's useless to say more, let's be practical." ”
In this way, Wang Huang often said to those who came to the door to give gifts, and he also knew that Li Nan would not be grateful to Dade for kneeling on the ground to thank him, so he simply sent the holy decree to the war elephant.
The attendant's legs trembled and he approached the terrifying war elephant, and before he could figure out a way to reach the three-meter-high elephant, Docot, who had accompanied Li Nan, threw out the leather whip in his hand and rolled the yellow silk wrapped holy decree into his hand.
Li Nan opened the holy decree and looked at it, and in addition to removing the official words that were insulting, he found that Zhao Ji of Song Huizong was really good enough to pick the door.
In addition to the false title of the king of Zhennan certified by the Great Song Dynasty, Zhang Shuye, who provoked the war between the two countries, was given to Li Nan to dispose of Zi, and it was also agreed that the two countries would maintain their existing territory, and neither side could start a war lightly.
Such conditions are still a little far from Li Nan's expectations, and there is no need for him to be polite to Wang Huang now, so he immediately threw the holy decree to the ground casually, and said coldly: "Since Zhao Ji has no sincerity in peace talks, then the king will not bother, I heard that the whitebait in Dongting Lake tastes good, it seems that I am going to go there for a while." ”
Dongting Lake is in the Jinghu area, and when they heard Li Nan's words, both the prime minister Wang Hao and the officials from Jinghu South Road in the pergola were frightened.
