This "retreat from the dynasty" made Li Qi full of confusion, not to mention that Song Huizong had not said that sentence, "Qing has made this miraculous achievement, and he should be rewarded." The key thing is that this matter has not been talked about yet, is it just to watch him and Jiang Daoyan debate in the last dynasty today?

"What else do you have to do?"

"Reward ——!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Qi immediately came to his senses, looked left and right, and saw Cai Jing, Gao Yu, and Li Bangyan standing in front of him, all with gloating expressions.

It's- these old guys are really disrespectful. Li Qi hurriedly changed his words: "That's just second, the key is that I still have a lot of things to tell the emperor!" ”

Cai Jing and the others looked at each other, and suddenly laughed at the same time, and walked straight past Li Qi.

What do you mean? Is there something greasy in it?

Li Qi stood in place and thought for a long time, but Wu Zi didn't understand, and turned his head to see that Cai Jing and the others had already left the main hall and hurriedly chased them out.

But just after passing a corner, I suddenly saw Cai Jing, Cai Xuan, Gao Yu, and Zhu Mian standing in the corner and talking about something.

Li Qi hurriedly walked over.

Cai Jing saw Li Qi coming, and said: "You kid is really good, you can make Jiang Yushi speechless, and you have to bow your head to admit your mistakes, the old man has been in the court for decades, and it is the first time I have seen Yushi Zhongcheng standing on this hall to apologize to people, interesting, interesting!" ”

Gao Yu and the others also laughed.

"Taishi, this is not called ability, this is called telling people with reason, and convincing people with virtue." Richie didn't have a good airway......

Cai Jing glanced at him, and then sighed: "The old man didn't expect you to do a drip, I really worried about you for so many days." However, don't be complacent, this is just foreplay, and the main thing will be later. ”

"Wait?"

Li Qi looked at Cai Jing curiously.

Cai Jing said: "The old man really doesn't know whether to say that you are smart, or that you are confused." Such a big thing, you think you can fool it with a few words? Then you're really taking everyone else for a fool. ”

Li Qi frowned and said, "What does the Taishi mean?" ”

Gao Yu smiled and asked, "Do you think we are waiting for you here?" ”

Li Qi's eyes widened and said, "Could it be that the emperor will summon us later?" ”

Cai Jing nodded and said, "After the Battle of Hengshan, Western Xia asked me for peace with the Great Song Dynasty, you know this, right?" ”

Li Qi nodded and said, "I heard about it in the northwest." ”

"At that time, the emperor thought that he had the virtue of a good life in heaven and let him go to Xixia, however, they still want to plot against Lanzhou now, which is tantamount to tearing up the covenant and betraying my Great Song Dynasty, although they did not succeed, but this matter cannot be counted."

"Then why didn't the emperor say it?"

Gao Yu said: "This is not a glorious thing, but also involves the Jin Kingdom and Western Xia, it is not convenient to say it in the court at present, because once this mouth is opened, it will inevitably cause a new round of controversy, in fact, the emperor has been waiting for you to come back, after all, you know this matter best." ”

Zhu Mian said: "Economic envoy, you may not know that these few days of court are arguing for you, if the emperor doesn't give you a chance to explain, then this matter is really endless." The bet that the emperor promised you is nothing more than to block the mouth of Youyou, since the goal has been achieved, then this early dynasty will naturally end. ”

Cai Jing said: "Later, you have to explain things honestly and clearly, don't show off your eloquence anymore, just do it in moderation." ”

"Well, I see." Li Qi nodded, thinking, is this what kind of imperial technique?

After a while, I saw a little eunuch come over and said, "My lords, the emperor has summoned you to go to the Chongzheng Palace immediately to discuss matters." ”

Cai Jing nodded, and then told Li Qi: "You have to pay attention to what you can talk later." ”

"Oh."

When Cai Jing, Li Qi and others came to the Chongzheng Palace, Zhao Huan, Li Bangyan, Cai You and other ministers with real power had already arrived, sitting on both sides.

Several people came to the hall and saluted Song Huizong.

Song Huizong stretched out his hand and said, "A few Aiqing sit down." ”

After they sat down, Song Huizong glanced at Li Qi and said, "Li Qi, when I just left, it seems that you heard that there is a book, what is the matter?" ”

Li Qi got up and said: "Back to the emperor, just now Weichen just said something intermittently, and Weichen still wants to tell the emperor about the whole thing." "Of course he won't ask for a reward in person, this thing really depends on fate.

Song Huizong quickly glanced at Cai Jing and the others, and said with a smile: "Say it." ”

Li Qi methodically dictated the whole thing, how to use Dong Zhuo to enter Beijing to confuse Western Xia, how Yue Fei perfectly blocked the enemy, and he did not use the drill to cover up the truth of the whole thing, told Song Huizong the true purpose of the exercise, and also told the content of the conversation with Richard.

Of course, he still insisted that he did not report it at that time, because he was afraid of the military aircraft leaking, and did not say his true thoughts, and in addition, he still kept using the word exercise to remind Song Huizong that he did not violate the rules.

After hearing this, Song Huizong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, knowing that the Zhejia army was loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, and they were forced by the situation to do so, and if they had to calculate it, they still made great contributions, as the emperor At this time, if they were to be investigated, it would be counterproductive, so he did not plan to delve into the matter further, but at the same time, he was furious, and hummed: "Okay, you Li Qianshun, I treat you well, and now you have betrayed me, and you also want to plot against my territory, it is really hateful." ”

Li Qianshun is the Chongzong of Western Xia.

Cai You hurriedly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Wechen thinks that the economy makes the law of retreating from the enemy upside down, since the injustice of the Western Xia is in front, then don't blame me for the ruthlessness of the Great Song Dynasty, Wechen thought that the economic envoy at that time should be reported immediately, take advantage of the victory to pursue, and the three-way army immediately attacked the Western Xia, giving the Western Xia a cruel lesson." ”

Tong Guan also stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to lead the troops to attack Western Xia again and raise my imperial prestige." ”

Wu Min suddenly stood up and said: "Weichen thinks that the economic move is the best policy, and now that the Western Xia has declared himself a vassal to the Jin State, if my Great Song Dynasty attacks the Western Xia, if the Jin soldiers take this as an excuse to send troops to help, then my Great Song Dynasty will fall into a two-sided battle, and please consider it carefully." ”

Li Bangyan also stood up and said, "Weichen seconded it. ”

Cai You snorted: "Don't forget the two of you, it was Xixia who provoked the incident first, and my Great Song Master is famous, why did he interfere with the Jin Kingdom?" ”

At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Western Xia also began to go downhill, Song Huizong sent troops to the Western Xia is repeatedly victorious, and occupied strategic places, Hengshan generation, for the Western Xia is to attack and retreat, if it were not for the Fang La uprising at that time, Song Huizong quickly turned the focus to the inside, the Western Xia is afraid that there is only half a life left, therefore, the Song Dynasty is not afraid of the Western Xia, if there is no Jin State, I am afraid that Song Huizong will not hesitate at all, and he would have sent troops to attack Xia a long time ago.

Song Huizong pondered for a moment, then turned his head to Cai Jing and asked, "What does the Taishi think it should be?" ”

Cai Jingdao: "The old minister thinks that the Western Xia has just declared himself a minister to the Jin State, if my Great Song Dynasty attacks the Western Xia at this time, then it is tantamount to forcing the Jin State to tear up the alliance and send troops to our Great Song Dynasty, so the old minister thinks that this matter should be considered in the long run, even if he wants to send troops, he will have to wait for a year or two." ”

In fact, Cai Jing has always advocated the use of troops against the Western Xia to make side contributions, but at this time, he has reached the twilight of his life, even if he makes great contributions and sits steadily, it will be difficult to escape life, old age, sickness and death, so there have been some changes in his thinking, and he has not insisted on sending troops as before, and he still has reservations.

Tong Guan suddenly said: "Your Majesty, Weichen has a plan to dispel this doubt. ”

Song Huizong sighed and said, "Aiqing speak quickly." ”

Tong Guan said: "Weichen thought that it was expedient for the Jin State to let the Western Xia be a vassal to it, and the henchman of the Jin State was Yelu Yanxi, at that time, Yelu Yanxi had fled to the border of the Western Xia, Li Qianshun was planning to take Yelu Yanxi into the Western Xia, if Yelu Yanxi succeeded, it would bring great obstacles to the Jin Kingdom, and as long as the Yelu Dynasty was not destroyed, the Khitans would have a comeback one day, and the Jin State would not hesitate to agree to give up the northwest generation to the Western Xia in order to capture Yelu Yanxi as soon as possible. Therefore, we might as well send an envoy to the Jin State to persuade the Jin State to crusade against the Western Xia together, and then the Western Xia will be destroyed, and Yelu Yanxi will naturally have nowhere to hide, killing two birds with one stone. ”

Li Bangyan said: "If you can persuade Jin Guo to send troops, then it is not impossible to try." ”

Song Huizong also nodded frequently when he heard it.

Cai You listened, and felt anxious in his heart, if he let Tong Guan command the army again, then his position as a privy envoy would not be guaranteed, and the post of prime minister would be taken away by Cai Jing, if this privy envoy was also taken back by Tong Guan, then he would no longer have any real power in his hands, and he would return to before liberation. Now that he saw that the situation was not good, he didn't want to send troops to Western Xia, his eyes suddenly glanced at Li Qi, and said with a smile: "If you want to send someone to envoy to the Jin Kingdom, the economic envoy is undoubtedly the best candidate!" ”

He saw that Li Qi never wanted to send troops to Western Xia, so he deliberately led the topic to Li Qi, and used Li Qi's mouth to prevent Tong Guan from leading the troops again. It can be seen that in the face of interests, there are no permanent enemies or friends......

Sure enough, after he said this, everyone turned their attention to Li Qi again. Song Huizong remembered that the party had been silent, so he asked: "Li Qi, this matter has a lot to do with you, what do you think about it?" ”

Damn Cai You, you actually used me as a gunman, anyway, now we are indeed on the same side, even if you don't say anything, I have to stop them. Li Qi said: "If the emperor sends Wei Chen to envoy Jin Guo, Wei Chen should obey his orders, but Wei Chen thinks that Jin Guo is unlikely to agree." ”

Song Huizong said: "Why is this? ”

Li Qi said with a smile: "The matter of Western Xia's proclamation of ministers to the Jin State, Weichen has heard about it in the northwest, and Yelu Yanxi did contribute to this result as an important reason, but it was not the only one. There are two other points, one of which is that my Great Song Dynasty captured Western Xia, mainly to capture the Hetao Horse Farm, this horse is too important for my Great Song Dynasty, but what can they get when the Jin State attacks Western Xia? Horse? You must know that the Jin Kingdom now occupies a large area of the grassland in the north, and the horses are, of course, the Jurchens are very greedy, and it is impossible to say that they have no intentions for the land of Western Xia. However, the Jin State has been fighting for many years, and it has long been sleepy and lacking, and Wan Yan Sheng has just taken the throne, the first thing he must do must be to stabilize the internal affairs and recuperate, in addition, Yelu Yanxi is still outside, for a piece of land that is of little value to himself, send a tired army to fight, I believe that Wan Yan Sheng will not do such a stupid thing. ”

Tong Guan said: "The economic envoy is reasonable, since this is the case, then it is impossible for the Jin State to send troops to our Great Song Dynasty because of Western Xia, and this incident just proves this." ”

You idiot, now that Yelu Yanxi is already a lost dog, and he doesn't even have the only backer, Jin Guo doesn't need to spend too much effort to deal with him anymore, maybe Jin Guo's current recuperation is for my Great Song Dynasty. Of course, Li Qi knew Tong Guan's original intention, if there was no war, his status in Song Huizong's mind would be greatly reduced. Said: "The king of Guangyang County, this can be said twice, although the Western Xia may have no desirable value for the Jin Kingdom, but my Great Song Dynasty is very powerful for the Jin Kingdom, what is the Jin Kingdom lacking now, money, fertile land, talents, technology, just these four points, try to ask who can compare with my Great Song Dynasty." In the face of profit, all qiē will become unpredictable. If my Great Song Dynasty sent troops out of Western Xia alone, the Jin State could wait for the opportunity to move, advance or retreat, once there was an opportunity, the Jin State might send troops to my Great Song Dynasty, and then my Great Song Dynasty would be difficult to take care of and fall into danger, but the Jin State would exchange the most benefits at the lowest price. Although I don't dare to guarantee that the country will definitely send troops to my Great Song Dynasty, but in the face of such huge profits, it is inevitable that the Jin country will not be moved.
