The weather has cleared, but there is still a lot of snow on the roof, and An Pulin and Li Rui came to Yanjing City at this time.

They had been sitting in a carriage, but now they had come out of it and walked forward in the street.

They observed the scene of Yanjing City as they walked.

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, the New Year has just passed, half of the shops in Yanjing City have been opened, and there are many citizens buying things at the door of the shops, and some farmers from nearby villages and towns are buying some farm tools. In addition, some scholars who have just passed the imperial examination are also buying clothes to prepare to enter the government with dignity when the time comes. Occasionally, children can be seen frolicking on the streets, and there are some military personnel on temporary vacation shopping on the streets.

The entire Yanjing City is still so prosperous, and there seems to be little change from July last year.

"Yanyun, Central Plains, Jiangnan, if this is the case, it is indeed extraordinary!" An Pulin said.

In this era, it is already good to be able to eat well, and it is unimaginable to be able to make everyone live a prosperous life.

"As long as our seven million soldiers and civilians in Goryeo work together, just like the Khitans and Jurchens back then, it will not be difficult for us to occupy Liaodong, and then go south to occupy Yanyun and even the Central Plains! In the future, these people here will be in our enslavement! Li Rui said.

The two of them spoke in Goryeo, and they were not afraid that the Yanjing people next to them would hear it.

"Yes, I wish I could see that day in my lifetime!" An Pulin said.

He is over 60 years old, and the average life expectancy of human beings in this era is far less than that of later generations. And to realize the grand "wish" they just talked about, I am afraid that it will only take decades.

"Shall we go to the Imperial Court?" Li Ruidao.

"This time, let's go directly to the palace and meet the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty!" An Pulin said.

The two of them went straight in the direction of the palace, and when they reached the gate of the palace, the palace was now back to normal, and someone went to report it, and not long after, the guards led them inside.

"May I ask where His Majesty the Emperor is now?" An Pulin said.

"Your Majesty used to receive ministers from all over the world in the Imperial Palace, and now he is still there." The guard said.

An Pulin nodded.

After walking forward for a while, a huge palace appeared in front of them, and there were many guards at the gate of the palace.

This palace is quite magnificent, Zhao Chen is sitting on the throne, and Qin Yuzhen is also beside him at this moment, and the two seem to be talking about something.

After An Pulin and Li Rui came in, they were immediately photographed by Qin Yuzhen's beauty, and after a long while, the two of them reacted, and hurriedly knelt on the ground at the moment, and said: "The Goryeo envoys see Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" ”

"Let's get flat!" Zhao Chen said lightly.

"Your Majesty, we are here from Goryeo, and we have already brought the letter of state of my King of Goryeo, and I hereby send it to Your Majesty." An Pulin said.

"Bring it in!" Zhao Chen said.

At that moment, An Pulin took out the national letter, and a guard took the national letter, and finally sent it to Zhao Chen's hands.

Zhao Chen opened the Goryeo State Book and looked at it carefully, which was about Goryeo's ministerhood. From now on, Goryeo will once again become a vassal state of the Great Song Dynasty, and Goryeo, from the monarch to the common people, will respect the Great Song Emperor as the co-lord of the world.

"Good!" After a while, Zhao Chen nodded, a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, when we set off from Goryeo, it was still the end of last year, and our king asked us to bring some gifts to pay tribute to Your Majesty!" Seeing a smile on Zhao Chen's face, An Pulin said again.

"Oh? Let's bring it together! Zhao Chen said.

At that moment, An Pulin and Li Rui said a few words to the guards, and after a while, more than a dozen Koreans entered the palace of governance, and they moved in more than a dozen large and small boxes.

"Your Majesty, these are some of my Goryeo specialties, please take a look!" An Pulin said.

Zhao Chen walked down from it, he came to the box, the guards opened the box, and Zhao Chen looked at the gifts in the box.

The first box contained a sailboat carved in ivory, and it was very exquisitely made! The second box contained a one-person-tall blood-colored coral tree, the entire coral tree was crystal clear, and Zhao Chen stayed there all of a sudden! In the third box is a string of pearls, Zhao Chen lifted a string of pearls, only to see that each pearl is the size of a person's little finger, all the pearls are the same size, this string of pearls is only worth a lot! In the fourth box was a foot-long snow-white ginseng, which was actually in the shape of a human, and a sweet fragrance emanated from the ginseng......

There were all kinds of precious things in the boxes in the back, and Zhao Chen seemed to be stunned, and his body was motionless.

"Your Majesty still likes it?" An Pulin said.

"Like! I love it so much! Although I am rich in the world, I have never seen so many such precious treasures! Zhao Chen laughed.

"Your Majesty is satisfied! Our king said that from now on, Goryeo will be the courtier of the Great Song Dynasty, so naturally he will give the best things to the Great Song Dynasty! An Pulin said.

"Thank you for me, King." Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, the last time you asked us to be ministers, now we have brought the credentials, I wonder when we will sign the contract?" An Pulin said.

"You still have to go to Wang Shu for this matter, he hosts this matter, and I will let him sign a contract with you." Zhao Chen said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" An Pulin was overjoyed in his heart and said.

"I still have some things to do, so you should go to Wang Shu first." Zhao Chen said.

At that moment, Zhao Chen ordered the guards to lead them out, and Qin Yuzhen also came down from above at this moment and came to these gifts.

"This snow ginseng is human-shaped, snow-white all over, exuding a strange fragrance, it is a rare thousand-year-old ginseng in the world! If an ordinary person eats this snow ginseng, it will not be a problem to cultivate to the innate realm within three years! I can wait for this snow ginseng to go further. Qin Yuzhen was surprised.

"If you like it, I'll give it to you." Zhao Chen said.

"Husband, you seemed to be very obsessed just now, why are you so generous now?" Qin Yuzhen chuckled.

"I just deceived those Koreans! I am the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, what I want and can't get, why care about their gifts? Yu Zhen, you like to practice martial arts the most, I have decided, this thing will be given to you! Some of the remaining treasures, see if A-Yao and the others want them, and then give some to their father and grandfather, and the rest will be sealed in the treasury. Zhao Chen said with a smile.

"We just talked about the Advisory Bureau, and you haven't told me why you set up the Advisory Council?" Qin Yu really said.

"On the one hand, it is to absorb the suggestions of the private sector, and on the other hand, it is also to decentralize power, so that a more reasonable system can be established in the future! In the future, the Advisory Bureau will be changed to the National Assembly, and in the future, not only the national parliament will also have relevant institutions, but also local institutions, and I will tell you about its benefits...... Zhao Chen said.

The two of them discussed the affairs of the Advisory Council in the Governing Palace, and they no longer took the Koreans to heart.

******

After An Pulin and Li Rui entered the military aircraft department, who knew that Wang Shu was discussing state affairs with officials from various places this morning, so the two had to wait here.

At noon, the two of them had a hurried meal at this military aircraft office, and they realized that food was actually provided to officials here, and the officials of the Great Song Military Aircraft Department needed to work here from morning to night, and they could only leave after dark.

For such a system, the two sighed again.

In the afternoon, they finally met Wang Shu.

The three of them sat down together, and Wang Shu smiled and said, "Two adults, you are finally here again!" ”

"Lord Wang, we have sent the letter of state to His Majesty the Emperor, and we, Goryeo, have decided to declare ourselves vassals to the Great Song Dynasty, and from then on we will be the vassals of the Great Song Dynasty! Regarding the Liaodong contract, we have to finalize it now, right? An Pulin said.

"Let's first determine the division of Goryeo's city, and then we can finalize the contract." Wang Shu said.

"Yes, that's right! Baozhou, Dingzhou, Xuanzhou, Kaizhou, Yaozhou, Zhenhaifu and other places in Liaodong are already under the control of my Goryeo, and these naturally belong to our Goryeo! In addition, Liaoyang Prefecture, Liaoxi Prefecture, Shenzhou, Yinzhou, Zhengzhou, Jinzhou and other places will also belong to our Goryeo! What do you think, Mr. Wang? An Pulin said.

He said so many cities at once, Wang Shu was stunned, and after a while, Wang Shu laughed and said: "Except for Huanglong Mansion and Huining Mansion, you want to leave the rest of the cities?" ”

An Pulin was slightly embarrassed, but still nodded, and said, "Lord Wang, we said that day, we are willing to use money to buy back the city in Liaodong!" Ask for it! ”

Wang Shu sneered: "A place as big as Liaodong is bigger than your Goryeo land, how much money do you say you need?" ”

An Pulin said: "Lord Wang, if we buy these places, will you immediately withdraw from these places?" ”

Wang Shu nodded and said, "That's good!" But I'm afraid you don't have so much gold and silver! ”

An Pulin said: "Lord Wang, just say how much you need!" ”

Wang Shu smiled and said, "Ten thousand taels of silver is the least!" ”

What the!

An Pulin and Li Rui stayed there all of a sudden.
