Shen Lun has been upright all his life, and he has an excellent reputation in Shilin, but he didn't expect to teach a hypocrite son.

This was a big blow to Shen Lun.

In comparison, Zhao Guangyi, who is a fraudster, is far luckier than Shen Lun.

He had a good son.

Imperial Palace, inside the dormitory.

The second prince knelt in front of Zhao Guangyi's dragon bed, holding a handkerchief in his hand, and carefully wiping his palms for Zhao Guangyi.

Chen Lin and other eunuchs who were waiting on the side looked at the second prince with respect at this moment.

A prince, when the emperor was in a coma, did not give birth to the nausea that replaced him, but carefully waited for the emperor to freshen up.

This is enough to show that the second prince is a good son who is filial.

"Father, after the imperial brother learned that you were unconscious, he was very worried about you and wanted to see you. Erchen didn't know if his father wanted to see the emperor's brother, but his son's son knew that the emperor's brother had been thinking about his father.

Therefore, the retainers made the decision and asked the imperial brother to come to the palace to see you.

I hope you don't blame the sons......"

The second prince chattered in Zhao Guangyi's ear.

In the case that Zhao Guangyi is in danger of dying at any time, he can still think of letting a person who is the most threatening to his throne approach Zhao Guangyi.

This is enough to prove that the brotherly relationship between the second prince and the eldest prince is sincere.

Zhao Guangyi seemed to be moved, and his fingers trembled slightly.

The second prince was helping Zhao Guangyi wipe his palm, and he could naturally feel it.

He took Zhao Guangyi's hand in surprise, "Father, you heard what your son said, right?" ”

This time, Zhao Guangyi didn't react at all.

This made the second prince rejoice.

"Imperial Doctor, come and see my father."

The second prince beckoned the imperial doctor who was waiting in the dormitory to treat Zhao Guangyi.

After taking Zhao Guangyi's pulse, the imperial doctor bowed his hand to the second prince: "Your Majesty's pulse is gradually recovering, but there is no sign of awakening. His Royal Highness said just now that when you were talking to Your Majesty, Your Majesty reacted. Then Wei Chen suggested that His Royal Highness should talk to His Majesty more, maybe His Majesty will wake up soon. ”

"Thank you, Imperial Doctor!"

After the second prince thanked the imperial doctor, he took Zhao Guangyi's hand, "Father, the son just mentioned the imperial brother, and you reacted." You want to meet the royal brother too, don't you? The son went to send someone to pass on the emperor's brother. ”

The eunuch of the Inner Servant Province, after getting the approval of the second prince.

went out of the palace to pass on the audience of the great prince.

It didn't take long for the eldest prince, dressed in plain clothes, to hurry to the dormitory.

As soon as he entered the dormitory, looking at the unconscious Zhao Guangyi on the dragon bed, the tears of the eldest prince were like rain.

"Father!"

The eldest prince knelt on the ground, crying and pounced on Zhao Guangyi.

The eldest prince has been imprisoned for a long time, and he looks a little haggard.

The eldest prince threw himself on the edge of Zhao Guangyi's bed, grabbed Zhao Guangyi's hand, and wailed.

"Father!"

The eldest prince cried: "Father, wake up, you used to be a bad son and made you angry. Erchen swears that he will never make you angry again. Wake up! ”

The feelings of the eldest prince are sincere.

This is very much in line with his character, frank, straightforward, upright, and unabashed.

Sincere temperament, always easy to impress others.

The second prince also twitched.

The eunuchs and palace ladies also cried in an instant.

It's like howling.

Although it was a little unlucky, no one stopped it.

The second prince rushed over and hugged the eldest prince, crying: "Father will definitely wake up, he will definitely wake up......"

The eldest prince wiped his tears and nodded.

At this moment, the little eunuch on duty in the vertical arch hall hurriedly entered the hall.

The little eunuch whispered in Chen Lin's ear.

Chen Lin was obviously stunned, he wiped away his tears, moved to the second prince's side, and choked up: "Second Highness, Li Fang, Pingzhang, Bi Shi'an, Governor of Political Affairs, ask to see." ”

The second prince was obviously displeased, he raised his head and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Chen Lin hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "The envoy of the Liao people has arrived in Bianjing City......

"Liao?"

The second prince was obviously stunned, and then frowned.

When the envoys of the Liao people came to Bianjing, there has never been anything good.

The second prince wiped away his tears and said to the eldest prince: "Brother Huang, you are guarding your father here, I'll go out and have a look." ”

Subsequently, the second prince wore a python robe and jade belt, and under the guidance of Chen Lin, entered the vertical arch hall.

"Li Aiqing, Bi Aiqing, the Liao envoys are visiting, do you have something important?"

The second prince entered the vertical arch hall, and before he sat on the dragon chair, he opened his mouth to ask.

"Minister Li Fang!"

"Chancellor Bi Shi'an!"

"See Your Highness......"

After the salute, Li Fang said with a solemn expression: "Back to Your Highness, the Liao envoys are going south for the matter of Tongtaiguan......

The second prince frowned and clenched his fists, "Why is it Tongtai Pass again?" ”

Bi Shi'an said with a bitter face: "Yes, it's Tongtai Pass again." ”

"What do the Liao people want to do?"

The second prince asked.

Li Fang and Bi Shi'an glanced at each other, and Li Fang said: "The Liao envoy said that my Great Song soldiers invaded the territory of Liao, which is a provocation. They made it imperative for us to give them a satisfactory answer.

Otherwise, after the beginning of spring this year, the 500,000 troops of the Liao State will go south and personally ask the Great Song Dynasty for justice. ”

"Half a million troops?"

The second prince was startled, and asked anxiously, "How is this a good ......?"

"Two Aiqing, do you have a countermeasure?"

Li Fang arched his hand and said: "The minister thinks that he should meet the Liao envoys, explore their real purpose, and then think about countermeasures." ”

The second prince was very hesitant, and he said in embarrassment: "Then let's meet......

"The envoys of the Liao Kingdom have come to see you."

After a while, the envoys of the Liao State entered the Vertical Arch Hall under the leadership of the eunuchs.

There are quite a few envoys from the Liao State, but only three or five people are really qualified to enter the vertical arch hall.

The Liao envoy headed by him is named Yelu Langzheng, a Liao royal family who is a serious child.

"You are Emperor Song?"

Yelu Lang Zheng faced the second prince and opened his mouth to question, looking very rude.

"Presumptuous!"

Li Fang looked at each other angrily and roared loudly, "Why don't you salute your highness when you see me?" ”

"Your Highness?"

Yelu Lang Zheng glanced at the second prince and laughed loudly: "It turns out that you are not Emperor Song, just a prince." ”

Yelu Lang Zheng put his hands behind his back and said indifferently: "I am also from the royal family, why should I give him a gift?" If I salute him, will he salute me? ”

"You!"

Li Fang was about to scold immediately.

The second prince had a bitter face and said comfortingly: "Li Aiqing, forget it." Don't quarrel over such pointless things. ”

The second prince looked very weak in the face of the Liao.

Although Li Fang was dissatisfied, he also had to comply with the wishes of the second prince.

"Humph!"

Li Fang snorted coldly at Yelu Lang Zheng to express his dissatisfaction.

Yelu Lang Zheng didn't care about this, and looked at Li Fang provocatively.

"The envoy of the Liao State suddenly visited, I don't know what is important?"

The second prince asked.

Yelu Lang Zheng arched his hand in the northeast direction, "On the orders of my Empress Dowager of Great Liao, I have come to Song Kingdom to ask about something." ”

"What?"

Yelu Lang Zheng stared at the second prince coldly, and said coldly: "The Song Kingdom wants to provoke a war? ”

The second prince pretended to be confused, and said in surprise: "Why did the Liao envoy say this? ”

Yelu Lang Zheng said with a sarcastic smile: "You don't have to act in front of me, in the middle of winter, the army of the Song State invaded my Liao State, killed the people of my Liao State, plundered the cattle and sheep of my Liao State, broke through the Tongtai Pass of my Liao State, and mutilated the soldiers of my Liao State."

I don't believe you don't know all these evil deeds. ”

Yelu Lang Zheng stared at the second prince and said sharply: "By doing this, you are provoking a war. I have gathered 500,000 soldiers and horses, and I am ready to go south at any time.

If the Song State does not give us a satisfactory explanation, at the beginning of spring this year, it will be the time when our Liao State has 500,000 iron hooves and set foot on the Central Plains. ”

Bi Shi'an took a step, approached Yelu Lang Zheng, and said coldly: "If you dare to take a step south, my Great Song Heavenly Army will make you and others fall to pieces." ”

"Scare me?"

Yelu Lang Zheng was fearless, "I'm not scared. Since you Song Guo are unwilling to give us Da Liao an explanation, then our Da Liao can only use the sword in our hands to take it ourselves. ”

Yelu Lang Zheng glanced at Li Fang and Bi Shi'an coldly.

"Let the people and soldiers of your Song Kingdom wash their necks and wait. Two months later, our Da Liao Iron Cavalry will definitely set foot on your Song Kingdom. ”

Dropping this cruel word, Yelu Lang Zheng turned around and walked outside the hall.

The attitude is extremely tough.

"Liao envoy and slow ......"

Li Fang opened his mouth to retain Yelu Langzheng.

There's no way around it.

The Liao State has no fear, but it doesn't mean that the Great Song Dynasty is also fearless.

At present, Zhao Guangyi is unconscious, and the second prince has not ascended the throne as emperor.

In the event of a major war, the situation in the DPRK will certainly be unstable.

Someone will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.

The Great Song Dynasty is very likely to be stormy or even destroyed.

Liao obviously understands this, so he has no fear.

Although Bi Shi'an was unwilling, he did not say anything to stop Li Fang from keeping Yelu Langzheng.

He also knew that it was not appropriate for the Great Song Dynasty to start the war now.

"What else?"

Yelu Lang Zheng turned his head and asked coldly.

Li Fang gritted his teeth and asked humiliatingly, "I don't know what kind of explanation Liao Guo needs?" ”

"Hehe......"

Yelu Lang Zheng laughed mockingly: "Aren't you not afraid of war? How? Scared? ”

Bi Shi'an said coldly: "The Great Song Dynasty has never been afraid of war, nor is it afraid of any strong enemy. However, my Great Song Dynasty is a state of etiquette, and it is a barbarian such as Feier, and everything is naturally convincing people with reason.

If you are reasonable, I will let you have a point. If you are unreasonable, you will fight. ”

Yelu Lang Zheng did not hide the disdain on his face at all, "If you are afraid, you Song people are really hypocritical." ”

Bi Shi'an's face flushed and he was angry.

In order to prevent the two of them from continuing to fight, Li Fang coughed lightly and hurriedly spoke, "What kind of explanation do you want?" ”

Yelu Lang Zheng glared at Bi Shi'an and said loudly: "First of all, you Song Kingdom must hand over the murderer who invaded my Daliao. Secondly, you have to compensate us for the losses of Daliao. And ......"

Yelu Lang Zheng said proudly: "My Majesty the Emperor of Daliao, there has always been a lack of a maid by my side. I think you princesses of the Song Kingdom are good. ”

Bi Shi'an's brows furrowed, his fists clenched, his teeth rattling, obviously angry to the extreme.

Li Fang moved slightly in front of Bi Shi'an, vaguely held Bi Shi'an's hand with his hand, and reminded in a low voice, "If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan...... Today's Great Song Dynasty can't withstand the ...... war"

"The deception is too great, I can't wait to strangle him with my own hands......"

Bistian roared under his breath.

Yelu Lang Zheng saw that Bi Shi'an was holding back his anger, and he provoked: "Do you agree? ”

Bi Shi'an trembled angrily.

While comforting Bi Shi'an, Li Fang asked Yelu Langzheng, "I don't know how much compensation you Liao Guo wants?" ”

In Li Fang's opinion, whether it is to hand over the murderer to the Liao State, or to marry the princess to the Liao State, it is acceptable.

On the contrary, the compensation that Liao wants is the top priority.

Yelu Lang Zheng raised a finger and said indifferently: "Ten million taels ......"

The pupils of the second prince, Li Fang, and Bi Shi'an shrank.

Ten million taels?

The lion opens his mouth!

The appetite is too great.

There is not even a million taels of silver in the treasury.

Where are they going to get 10 million taels for Liao?

Li Fang frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Ten million taels...... Too much...... No way! It seems that Liao has no sincerity to talk about things at all! ”

Yelu Lang Zheng knew that Da Song couldn't come up with so much money, he was just asking for a price.

Yelu Lang Zheng smiled: "No, no, no! We are very sincere. I, the Empress Dowager of Da Liao, know that the Song Kingdom can't come up with so much money, so the money can be discussed. ”

"How to negotiate?"

Yelu Lang Zheng smiled, "If Song Guo can hand over the head of the Yang family, my Da Liao can take nothing." ”

"Hiss~"

The two princes and the three of them gasped.

Hand over the head of the Yang family?

Are you kidding!

At present, Yang Qi is sitting in the northwest, and judging from the news that came back, there are more than 200,000 soldiers and horses under Yang Qi's command.

I want to take the head of the Yang family.

It is tantamount to a big battle with the 500,000 army of Liao.

Moreover, the Great Song Dynasty and Yang Qi are fighting, and it is very likely that the Liao State will sit on the side and reap the benefits.

Therefore, this kind of condition cannot be agreed to at all.

Bi Shi'an couldn't hold back any longer, he shouted coldly: "You Liao Kingdom want the head of the Yang family, just go and get it." Why do you need me to do it? ”

Yelu Langzheng didn't expect the Great Song Dynasty to agree to this from the beginning.

He just said it casually.

What if there is a miracle?

Yelu Lang Zheng stretched out his hand and shrugged his shoulders helplessly, "Then there is no way, ten million taels and one points cannot be less." ”

The second prince was a little flustered and looked at Li Fang.

Li Fang squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice: "You don't have to talk about it?" ”

Yelu Lang Zheng was originally about to loosen his mouth, but he wanted to scare the two princes and the three of them more, so he immediately straightened his face.

"Nope!"

Yelu Lang Zheng stared at the three of them, and said loudly: "One less point, my Da Liao Iron Cavalry will go south." ”

The second prince looked at Li Fang anxiously, "Li Aiqing, how is this good?" ”

Li Fang glanced at the second prince and said in a low voice: "As a last resort, I can only move the stake ......"

The three words of the pile sealing library have not yet been spoken.

A deep voice was heard from the apse.

"Then fight!"
