"Minister...... Zhao Defang...... Thank you for the Emperor's grace ......"

When Zhao Defang bowed his head in humiliation and gritted his teeth to say this, everything changed.

The ministers of the Song Kingdom all bowed to the ground and bowed to the new emperor.

The faces of all the ministers of the Yan Kingdom were filled with smiles that could not be concealed.

A new chapter has been opened in history.

The era that belonged to the Zhao and Song dynasties has never returned, and the era that belonged to the Yang Yan dynasty has begun.

Yang Qi was not half excited in his heart, he waved his sleeves calmly, and said lightly: "Tell the world!" ”

Yang Qi at this moment is like a god overnight.

With a constitution in his mouth, he follows the law.

No one needed to remind him, and all the ministers bowed down before him.

"No!"

The news of the surrender of the Song State was spread quickly.

When everyone in the world learned about this, there was an uproar.

For some of the people of the Song Kingdom, they had no idea what was happening, and the sky above them changed.

Some rejoice, others grieve.

Rejoicing is naturally the swallow people.

It is everyone who is sorrowful except the Yan people.

The emergence of a behemoth like the scorching sun is destined to have countless small countries, which will melt rapidly under its illumination, like snow, and become victims of its display of power.

Zhao Defang stayed in Jinling for three days.

On the third day.

Yang Qi held a simple and grand canonization ceremony for Zhao Defang.

When the jade seal engraved with the inscription 'Ordered by the Heavens, Longevity and Yongchang' appeared in Yang Qi's hand, it really shocked all the people who didn't know.

Yang Qi was canonized at the ceremony of canonizing Zhao Defang, and on the edict burned to the heavens, he stamped this jade seal.

It marks the submission of the Song State to the Yan State, and there is no example of change.

After canonizing Zhao Defang, Yang Qi asked a group of Yan Wenchen led by Zhao Pu to calculate and check the troops of the Song State.

The number of places to be eliminated and retained is also given.

At the same time, consultations were also held on future exchanges and trade between the two countries.

Zhao Defang pinched his nose and admitted all this.

Because he doesn't recognize it, and he can't help it.

As a subservient person, Yang Qi still had the power to keep the existence of the Song Kingdom, which was already a great favor, and in other aspects, he had no power to fight for at all.

What's more, under the calculations of many shrewd people led by Zhao Pu and Lu Duan, those civil servants of the Song State are not enough to see at all.

was mixed doubles by Zhao Pu and Lu Duan, and his nose was blue and his face was swollen.

In the end, in order to implement the new policies formulated by Song and Yan.

After careful consultation with Zhao Pu and others, Yang Qi finally decided that Chen Yao would move to the Song State and serve as the Minister of Supervision of the Yan State in the Song Dynasty.

Once everything has been settled.

This war against the Song State also came to an end.

Because of this war, the Song State lost power and humiliated the country, ceded land and paid compensation, and lost the imperial throne.

In this war, the Yan Kingdom was reborn.

Yan occupied nearly half of the territory of the Song State, and through this part of the territory of the Song State, it successfully connected the two countries of Yan and Nan, which had been divided into two places.

After discussing with the ministers, Yang Qi canceled the name of the southern country.

Since then, there has been no southern country.

In the world, there is only one incomparably powerful and vast Yan country.

Yan Guo also became the only overlord on this land.

In addition to the newly built Dali Kingdom and Beiliang Foreign Kingdom, Yan Kingdom almost beat the surrounding neighbors one by one.

So far, there have been no dissatisfied.

……

When Zhao Defang took the edict to canonize him and returned to the Song Kingdom.

Yang Qi also ordered Zhao Pu, took the edict signed by him and Zhao Defang, and went to Cangzhou City to persuade Shi to keep his word.

After many baptisms of war, Cangzhou City seemed to be very depressed.

Under the four fields, except for the soldiers, all that remained was the withered leaves rolled up by the autumn wind.

When Yang Qi went to Jiangning Mansion, in order to prevent Shi Shouxin from making trouble behind his back, he ordered an army of more than 100,000 to drain the water besieged by Cangzhou City.

In a hundred miles of land, without a military order, not even a bird can fly in.

Shi Shouxin seemed to know that he was not Yang Qi's opponent, and he had no intention of going out of the city to make trouble, but just stuck in Cangzhou City, waiting for reinforcements from the imperial court.

For Shi Shouxin, a veteran, the Yan army outside the city was indeed well defended.

It's hard to break through from inside the city.

But if there is a force that can cooperate with him, he will be able to attack inside and out.

He was confident that he could easily defeat the Yan army outside the city.

Inside the city of Cangzhou.

Only half of the City Lord's Mansion was left by artillery.

Shi Shouxin wore a sweat towel and was half lying on a soft couch.

After days of hard work, Shi Shouxin was infected with some wind and cold.

For him, an elderly man, the wind cold was a serious illness.

"Grandpa...... Eat porridge ......"

Shi Jiasun came to Shi Shouxin with a bowl of gruel and carefully helped him sit up.

Stir the spoon in the porridge bowl to let the hot porridge cool slowly.

A spoonful of gruel was filled and brought to Shi Shouxin's mouth.

Shi Shouxin opened his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp, and when the Shi family grandson was about to feed the second spoonful, Shi Shouxin stopped him.

Chewing on the few grains of rice in his mouth.

Shi Shouxin frowned, and said in a hoarse voice: "No food?" ”

Shi Jiasun hesitated, but nodded.

Shi Shouxin sighed and sighed, "How many days can the food in the city last?" ”

Shi Jiasun hesitated for a moment, lowered his voice and said, "There will be no food today......

Shi Shouxin subconsciously clenched his fists.

Cangzhou City is now an isolated city.

If the lonely city has no food, what will become of it in the end, Shi Shouxin knows better than anyone else.

Because he once experienced this scene when he was trapped in Yuguan by the Liao people.

The sinister side of human nature will be infinitely magnified at that time.

I don't dare to recall everything that happened in Yuguan in the past.

Shi Shouxin suddenly grabbed the arm of the Shi family's grandson and roared, "Haven't the imperial court's reinforcements arrived yet?" ”

Shi Patriarch Sun shook his head.

After hesitating for a moment, the grandson of the Shi family said in a low voice: "Seeing that more than a month has passed, if the reinforcements from the imperial court can arrive, I am afraid that they will arrive early." Now I can't see the shadow of the imperial court reinforcements, but I'm afraid of ......"

"Shut up!"

Shi Shouxin let out a low roar.

He coldly reprimanded his eldest grandson, "Don't criticize the court at this time." Our soldiers and horses here are the only remaining elite of the forbidden army in the imperial court, and they are also the last elite soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty. It is impossible for the imperial court to give up these soldiers and horses.

Unless...... Unless ......"

Speaking of which, Shi Shouxin couldn't go on.

Because he felt that the possibility that came to his mind would never happen.

"Give the order to go down, loot all the grain of the people, kill the military horses in the army, and use them as military rations."

"No~"

Cangzhou City was looted by Han Qiong long before Shi Shouxin arrived.

How could Shi Shouxin now scavenge food from the people.

As for the military horses in the army, there are quite a few them, but it's good to eat them once in a while, and they can't really be used as food all the time.

A significant part of the army is still hungry.

However, even so, they did not give up hope.

They always believed that the imperial court would send reinforcements.

Time slowly went back.

The Song troops in Cangzhou City did not wait for reinforcements from the Song State.

Instead, he waited for the envoy of the Yan Kingdom.

When the white-haired envoy of the Yan Kingdom stepped into Cangzhou City, everyone who knew the old man was stunned.

"Zhao Pu?!"

They never thought of it.

The envoy of the Yan State was actually the most powerful prime minister of the Song State in the past.

For a moment, their minds were filled with a swarm of bees.

The same.

After Shi Shouxin got the news, he was also incredulous.

He didn't care about the sweat towel on his forehead slipping off, stumbled off the soft couch, grabbed the eldest grandson's arm, and shouted in shock: "You said that the envoy of the Yan Kingdom is Zhao Pu?" That old minister of the Three Dynasties? ”

Shi Jiasun gritted his teeth and nodded.

"Impossible! It's impossible! ”

Shi Shouxin's head shook like a rattle.

But when Zhao Pu really stepped into the City Lord's Mansion, he didn't believe it.

After Shi Shouxin saw Zhao Pu, he didn't care about Zhao Pu's intentions at all, he was like an angry tiger, pounced in front of Zhao Pu, and asked angrily, "Zhao Pu, why did you become Yan Chen?" Tell the old man, how did you become Yanchen? ”

Zhao Pu let Shi Shouxin grab him, and said flatly: "Good birds choose trees to perch, you and I have been colleagues for many years, you should know me Zhao Pu." ”

Shi Shouxin grabbed Zhao Pu tightly and asked sharply, "Do you know what you are doing, Da Song is sorry for you." Why did you betray the Great Song?

Are you worthy of my big brother for this?

My eldest brother treats you well.

Back then, you amassed a huge amount of money, and my eldest brother just disposed of your phase, but he didn't do any substantial harm to you.

It even retains your certain official title.

He was so kind to you, and you betrayed him! ”

Zhao Pu stared at Shi Shouxin tightly and sneered: "Shi Shouxin, don't say everything so highly. Back then, for the sake of your eldest brother's imperial business, I, Zhao Pu, was busy before and after, and I could be regarded as doing my best.

But what about him?

Before he ascended the throne of God, he promised me the position of prime minister, but after he ascended the throne of God, he gave the position of prime minister to someone else.

He coyly wooed Chai Zhou's group of former ministers, why did he let me sacrifice?

And you, on the greed for ink.

You are far more greedy for ink than old men.

The old man was just asking for a small amount of money from local officials.

What about you?

After you were knighted, you had a large amount of fertile land.

But you're not satisfied.

not only encroached on other people's fertile land, but also relied on his power to control nearly half of the business in Bianjing.

Huge wealth is collected every year.

When it comes to greed for money, the old man is less than a drop in the bucket compared to you.

Do you still have the face to say that the old man? ”

"Humph!"

After Zhao Pu snorted coldly, he said disdainfully: "The old man is here today, and I don't have time to talk to you about this nonsense." Shi Shouxin obeys orders! ”

Shi Shouxin immediately roared: "You are a traitor, what qualifications do you have to declare to the old man?" ”

Zhao Pu smiled coldly and said in a low voice: "I was almost dizzy by you just now, but I forgot to tell you." A few days ago, Zhao Defang, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, went to Jinling City in person and bowed to His Majesty the Emperor of Yan.

Since then, there has been no Great Song in the world, only Great Yan.

Since then, there has been no Emperor Song in the world, only Emperor Yan.

……”

"Boom!"

Shi Shouxin felt a thunderbolt explode in his mind.

A bolt from the blue.

Unbelievable.

His eyes widened, his eyes staring ahead, and he could hear nothing but the buzzing in his head.

He didn't hear a word of what Zhao Pu said later.

The whites of his eyes slowly floated, Shi Shouxin tilted his head and fainted.

He really couldn't accept this reality.

If it weren't for the timely reaction of the Shi family, I'm afraid that Shi Shouxin would have fallen to the ground.

Seeing Shi Shouxin faint.

Zhao Pu no longer had the cynicism just now, but instead sighed helplessly.

"Hey......"

Zhao Pu instructed the grandson of the Shi family: "Help your grandfather to rest and send someone to take care of him." Then take his place. ”

The grandson of the Shi family helped Shi Shouxin to lie down, turned his head to look at Zhao Pu, gritted his teeth and said, "Lord Zhao, is this going to make our Shi family a traitor?" ”

"Traitor?"

Zhao Pu smiled mockingly: "The monarch of the Song State personally issued an order, as a courtier of the Song State, do you want to resist the decree and disrespect it?" ”

Shi Jiasun's face changed several colors in an instant.

He didn't know what to do.

Zhao Pu persuaded on the side: "Compared with the Yang family back then, your Shi family is much better now. When the Yang family was forced to surrender to the Song Dynasty, it was also personally ordered by the monarch to whom he was loyal.

At that time, Taiyuan Mansion in the Northern Song Dynasty had been conquered by the Song army, and even all the people of the Northern Han royal family were captured by the Song State.

There is no king above, and there is no people below.

At that time, the Yang family had 8,000 volcano troops left.

They are like a group of lonely ghosts without a home and a country, wandering in the Taihang Mountains.

Faced with the will of the lord of the Northern Han Dynasty, who had surrendered to the Song State, they had no choice.

But your Shi family is different.

Although the Song State bowed to the Yan State.

However, His Majesty was merciful and did not annex the Song State in one go, but left half of the territory of the Song State.

You still have a home to go back to. ”

After a pause, Zhao Pu said again: "More importantly, you also have to think about it for your grandfather." On the surface, he seems to be sleek and insatiable, but in fact, he is the one who attaches the most importance to righteousness among the ten brothers of the Righteous Society in the past.

The Song State has now gone to the emperor title and has become a vassal state.

This was a great blow to him, the former founder of the Song Kingdom.

Rather than wait until he wakes up to deal with this matter and be alive.

It's better for you to deal with it instead of him, and he can still have a life. ”

Zhao Pu's words can be said to be heartfelt.

He gave all the pros and cons to the Shi family and grandson to analyze clearly.

Shi Jiasun hesitated for a long time, and looked back at Shi Shouxin, who was lying on the soft couch, his face was pale, and his breath was weak.

He gritted his teeth and nodded.

With Shi's grandson, he took over the holy decree instead of Shi Shouxin.

The content of the holy decree also spread throughout Cangzhou City in an instant.

After the soldiers of the forbidden army in Cangzhou City heard this.

Lose your marbles.

They shouted and roared hoarsely through the city.

They never thought of it.

The country they had fought so hard to defend surrendered to the enemy so easily.

"Ahh

"Faint King!"

"You don't have to die!"

"Hahahaha...... This is the Great Song that I defend...... Hahaha......"

“……”

Some of the soldiers of the forbidden army with a strong temperament are either crazy or crazy or crazy.

They ended their lives in the most tragic way.
