Chapter 0322: Entering the Palace for Audience

Two days later, December 18th.

Zhao Guangyi issued an edict and summoned the envoys of the southern kingdom in the Daqing Palace.

Early in the morning, after the morning court discussion, Zhao Guangyi summoned him.

Hai Li Na wore the southern court clothes prepared for her by Yang Yansi, led the deputy envoy of the southern country, Peng Pai, holding the festival tent, and entered the Daqing Hall with her head held high.

Hailina entered the hall and bowed to salute, "Hailina, the envoy of the Southern Kingdom, has seen His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and may the friendship between the Southern Kingdom and the Great Song Dynasty last forever." ”

"Humph!"

Among the civil and military officials, Pan Renmei clasped her hands, snorted coldly, and said gloomily: "I haven't heard of any southern country." actually sent a woman as an envoy, which is humiliating our Great Song Dynasty. ”

Zhao Guangyi pretended not to hear Pan Renmei's words, and instructed Wang Jien to let Haili not be polite.

Then there was no follow-up, and I planned to watch the play.

All the civil and military officials looked at the old woman in the sea to see how she answered.

Hai Li is also a person who has seen the big battle, and in the face of Pan Renmei's questioning, not only did he not get angry, but smiled indifferently.

"At the beginning of the southern country, this adult has never heard of it, so it is naturally understandable. As for the envoy sent by our king to Haili, he did not mean to humiliate the Great Song Dynasty in the slightest. On the contrary, he has respect for the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Pan Renmei said disdainfully: "Treacherous and quibble." ”

Haili's face sank, and he said loudly: "Hailina heard a long time ago that the Great Song Dynasty is a state of etiquette, teaching the people with poetry and book etiquette, respecting the old and loving the young, and believing in loyalty, filial piety and righteousness.

This lord is above the court, and he doesn't seem to have a low status, why does he frequently ridicule Hailina?

The old man is seventy and two this year, and in the words of your Da Song, he can be regarded as a person. Even if you can't get the treatment that Renrui deserves because of the different subject countries, you can be regarded as an old man.

The righteousness of filial piety taught by the State of Etiquette in the Great Song Dynasty is what you want to do to an old man?

Old and frail, not to show the sincerity of my king when he has come from thousands of miles to pay his most sincere respect to your majesty? ”

"The sea messenger is reasonable, and he should not be angry for a rough man."

Hai Lina taught Pan Renmei a lesson with loyalty, filial piety and righteousness, and scratched the itchy flesh of the civil official's question, Song Qi did not hesitate to speak out in support of Hai Lina.

Did you see that?

Even the vassal states of Fanbang know loyalty, filial piety and righteousness, you barbarians, don't come out and be embarrassed, quickly hand over the power and hand it over to our civil officials.

Song Qi came out of the queue and hugged his fist to Zhao Guangyi and said: "Your Majesty, the sea envoy is seventy-two years old, and he is unwilling to come thousands of miles away, and I offer sincere respect to Your Majesty, which shows that the southern country is sincere to my Great Song Dynasty." As a state of etiquette, my Great Song Dynasty should also let the sea envoys feel the hospitality of our state of etiquette. I beg your majesty to give the sea messenger a seat. ”

The corners of Zhao Guangyi's mouth twitched, making Pan Renmei embarrassed, and that was what he meant.

He secretly commanded the battle, and let more than 60,000 soldiers of the forbidden army be buried in Jiaozhi, but he was actually very unhappy with Jiaozhi in his heart, and wanted to give Jiaozhi a dismount.

However, Song Qi is so confused, this dismount is not successful.

Zhao Guangyi was extremely reluctant in his heart, but his face was full of a warm smile, "Wang Jien, sit down." I felt the sincere respect of the sea messenger. ”

Wang Jien moved the chair, and after Haili thanked Zhao Guangyi, he was not polite and sat on the chair in a grand manner.

When he sat down in the sea, Song Qi asked: "Sea envoy, this official has heard that your country was built on the original site of Jiaozhi, but he doesn't know how to build it and who established it, and I also ask the sea envoy to solve my doubts." ”

Zhao Pu, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating his mind, also opened his eyes and said loudly: "The old man remembers that in the country of Jiaozhi, in terms of power, Li Huan is the most, could it be that this southern country was built by Li Huan?" ”

Hai Lina nodded to Song Qi and Zhao Pu, and said softly: "My country, my lord, has nothing to do with Li Huan." My lord was originally a slang chieftain named Yi Xi. My lord has been yearning for the Central Plains culture since he was a child, but he has not had the opportunity to learn the Central Plains culture.

A few years ago, my lord was overjoyed to learn that your country was crusading against Jiaozhi, and gathered the slang people of the three mountains and five mountains, formed an army of 200,000, and went deep into Jiaozhi, wanting to assist your country.

Unexpectedly, for some reason, your country gave up attacking Cochin. Our lord had no choice but to lead a large army and start a fierce battle with Li Huan. At the beginning of October this year, he killed Li Huan outside the city of Jiaozhi Li.

And by borrowing the homeland of Jiaozhi, the southern country was founded.

At the beginning of the founding of the southern kingdom, our lord immediately sent the old body, day and night, to your country, one to express my southern country's respect for your country, and the other to submit the credentials of the country to be a member of your country. ”

Hailina's words are very standard.

It briefly recounts the process of the Southern Kingdom, deliberately conceals the face-damaging issue of the defeat of the Great Song Dynasty, and expresses the purpose of this mission.

The Chinese military officer listened to Hai Lina's words, and the expressions on his face were different.

No matter what they thought in their hearts, no one dared to Xiao Xunhai's woman anymore.

Although Haili Na hid the fact that the Great Song Dynasty was defeated in the crusade against Jiaozhi, they would not be stupid and think that Haili Na did not know about the defeat of the Great Song Dynasty.

From Hylina's words, they came up with a lot of useful information.

First, the southern kingdom was founded by the slang people of the mountains.

Second, there are more than 200,000 troops in the south who can fight well.

Third, the southern kingdom must have been plotting against Jiaozhi for a long time, and this time it took the opportunity of the Great Song Dynasty to attack Jiaozhi and successfully won Jiaozhi.

Fourth, Nanguo had no intention of starting a war with the Great Song Dynasty, nor did he want the Great Song Dynasty to go to war with the Southern Kingdom.

The four pieces of information were synthesized together, and a lot of them came to mind at once for the Chinese military officials.

The generals, for the first time, felt that it was not cost-effective to start a war with the south.

If you want to attack the southern country and fight against 200,000 troops, the safest way is to send 200,000 troops.

The total number of forbidden troops in the Great Song Dynasty is less than 600,000 elites.

was buried by Hou Renbao with 60,000 troops, leaving 540,000 troops.

If 200,000 are dispatched to attack the southern kingdom, it will be good to win.

If they were defeated, with the remaining 340,000 troops, they would not expect to subdue the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun in this life.

Moreover, the southern country is a barbarian land, and it is not cost-effective to use 200,000 troops to attack.

The civil officials, for the first time, felt that the southern kingdom admired the Great Song Dynasty.

The lord of the southern kingdom also likes the culture of the Great Song Dynasty, so he completely deliberately teaches and assimilates it.

At that time, it would be impossible for Nanguo, a vassal country, to pose a threat to the Great Song Dynasty.

Even a lot of good things will be paid to the Great Song Dynasty every year.

Above the main hall, only Zhao Guangyi was unwilling.

Made!

I sent an army of 100,000 to attack Jiaozhi, and nearly 60,000 died, only to be picked by others.

Gassy! Gassy!
