'One more day. ’

After entering the Song Realm, Xiao Xi was recording his itinerary every day. The day before yesterday, I crossed the Yellow River, and today I arrived near the city of Tokyo.

At the speed of a car or horse, you will be able to reach Tokyo City in one day.

As an envoy, Xiao Xi has gone south many times. But every time he entered the territory of the Song Kingdom, he would always be led around by the Song people, and he would never take the road honestly. This is to prevent him from memorizing the road and acting as a guide when the Liao army goes south in the future.

This approach feels ridiculous when you think about it, if you really want to find a guide, where can you not find it after attacking the Song Realm? He needs to be led by an outsider who only goes south every few years. Da Liao didn't have so much to do, the envoys from the Southern Dynasty were all led all the way to the bowl land at that time, the Gubeikou in the Yan Mountain was passing, and the Song envoy didn't know how many times he had gone, when he was afraid!

But this time, Xiao Xi's feeling was different. Maybe it's a detour, but the scope of the detour is definitely not as big as it used to be, and it feels like coping with a story.

And this time, the attitude of the escort was very cold. If Xiao Xi didn't take the initiative to speak, he would never take the initiative to speak. Not only the accompanying envoys, but also the other officials below are either arrogant or cold and distant. There is no longer the grudge of the past that you have to deal with carefully.

Xiao Xi also knew that this was due to the change in the strength of Song and Liao. As the strength of the Southern Dynasties gradually increased, and even the military strength began to be able to overwhelm the Great Liao, the attitude of these reception officials naturally became worse and worse. However, Xiao Xi was easy to provoke, quoting scriptures, and a few words made the accompanying officials unable to step down, so he had to change his attitude slightly.

It's just that Xiao Xi also understands in his heart that it is impossible to go back to the past. Before, the monarchs and ministers of the Song State were afraid of themselves, because they were afraid of the Great Liao behind them, and they were afraid that the Great Liao would invade the south in the name of humiliation of the national envoys. But now that I'm not afraid, I don't have so many scruples.

Especially this time when he went south to congratulate the new emperor on his ascension to the throne, he actually had the intention of showing off his martial arts. With the current spirit of the Song people, they will never willingly accept the result of the annexation of Goryeo. Xiao Xi knows that this time there will probably be some twists and turns.

After destroying Goryeo, Yelu Yisin made a lot of money.

My fame, as well as the hearts of my subordinates, have returned to before the Song Liao war.

From the princes and nobles of Goryeo, as well as the wealthy and common people, they looted tens of millions of worth of goods.

At the same time, the millions of people in Goryeo also made the major tribes eat a large piece of fat meat. How many Goryeo villages were uprooted, and all of them became the spoils of an obedient tribe.

And the land of Goryeo was also divided. Good land near Kaijing, Yelu Yixin gave his eldest son Baoning. The land in other places was divided among a few loyal tribes, and the land vacated by those tribes was given to his own men.

It was some remnants of the Goryeo who escaped by hiding on the island. Although the nearby islands have been swept away by the plough court, and those maritime merchants are willing to offer boats in order to keep their children safe, but the farther islands are a little troublesome, drifting on the water, and the Khitan warriors can hold on for an hour at most. If you are rocked off the ship for a day, most of the soldiers on board will fall.

Xiao Xi didn't care about so many things, this time he was just a messenger with an order to deliver a message, congratulate the new emperor of the Song State on his ascension to the throne, and inform the news that Da Liao had occupied Goryeo. As for the rest, Jeruyisin did not let him say it, and he would not say more.

At least this time he killed Goryeo, so that the Song people had no time to rescue, and it can be regarded as making Xiao Xi angry. On that day, when Song Liao fought, he was placed under house arrest in a post house until the signing of the New Covenant, and he was not released back to China.

When you arrive at the vertical arch hall of the Song Kingdom, you can take a look at the expressions on the faces of those famous ministers, and by the way, you can also see if the new emperor of the Song Kingdom has changed.

Xiao Xi sighed again, if only he could bring the head of the emblem of the king of Goryeo.

The paralyzed man, after being captured, died of hunger strike. In a fit of rage, Yelu Yixin beheaded the body for public display, along with Wang Hui's sons, all of whom were left behind.

Since the Song people, it is reasonable to return the head to the Song State. When the lid is lifted on the palace, the little emperor will not be frightened.

Xiao Xi once heard that the little emperor was weak in the womb, and he was locked in the palace since he was a child, and he didn't see outsiders, and it was normal to be scared when he saw someone's head suddenly.

It's a pity that it can only be a fantasy, and the items brought by the envoys must be inspected, and even the imperial city can't be entered. There will never be a situation where Jing Ke presented the map, but Qin did not find the dagger hidden in the map before he went to the palace. In other words, it is the box containing the map, and it is necessary to check whether there are wooden thorns first.

However, this time, the deputy envoy Yuan Rang is a man with five big and three thick, and he looks evil. In the past, it was common to pick at least a few officials who could be seen as envoys, but this time it is an exception for some reason. Xiao Xi looked back at the deputy envoy with an ugly face, if he went to the palace with this kind of appearance, maybe he could really scare the little emperor.

stayed at the post house in Fengqiu for one night, and the next morning, Xiao Xi and his party set off again.

In the early afternoon, we arrived in Tokyo City. The deputy envoy of the Southern Dynasty went out of the city to greet Xiao Xi - the envoy was going to Dutingyi before he would hand over the task with the accompanying envoy.

The carriage entered the rich and prosperous city of Tokyo, Xiao Xi sat upright in the car, even though the scenery here is incomparable to the north, but in the position of the envoy, Xiao Xi also has to maintain his image.

I went all the way to Duting Station, but the carriage suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Xi finally made a move and asked outside.

The deputy envoy of the pavilion who was traveling with the car came in from outside, "That's Lu Xianggong's car." ”

Rightfully so. The envoys of the Liao Kingdom, when they met the Zaifu of the Great Song Dynasty, of course, they had to avoid the roadside.

"Is it Lu Jifu's privy council? Have you done it now? Xiao Xi was surprised, he hadn't heard of such a big thing at all. Could it be that it has only changed in the past few days?

"It's Xuanhui Xianggong!" The deputy envoy of the pavilion companion corrected the way.

'Just Xuanhui envoy? ’

Lu Huiqing has made such a great contribution, just a Xuanhui envoy? Xiao Xi was stunned.

He laid down the six states of Xiping! Xing Ling, which Xixia put on the tip of his heart, and Lingwu that the Song people always talked about. It is the most important piece of land that has plagued the Song Dynasty for a hundred years. After this war, there is no day for the party members to recover. With Lu Huiqing's merits, he was crowned king in Daliao, and it was good in the Southern Dynasty, and he changed from a privy envoy to a Xuanhui envoy.

Although he felt that the court of the Song State was too harsh on the heroes, Xiao Xi had no intention of crying out for Lu Huiqing. In any case, Lu Huiqing seized the six states of Xiping from the hands of the Great Liao, and his hands were stained with the blood of the people of the Liao State.

However, the more the Southern Dynasty treated such a hero, the more Xiao Xi was happy. If the Southern Dynasty treats the heroes like this in the future, the Great Liao monarchs and ministers will be able to be upright and worry-free from now on.

Xiao Xi decided to inquire about Han Gang and Guo Kui later. Since Lu Huiqing is just a Xuanhui envoy, the rewards of Han Gang and Guo Kui will only be equally meager. It's also because of his own envoy, if he was still in the country, he should have received the news of the espionage by now.

Lu Huiqing's car drove over, Xiao Xi and his party started again, and soon arrived at Dutingyi.

Before getting out of the car, a lieutenant envoy was already waiting in the Duting Post Gate.

"Empress Taishang has a will, Xiao Haili, the messenger of the Liao State, and Yuan Rang, the deputy envoy of the Guoxin, see you in the palace today."

Xiao Xi, who changed his name to the sea because of his avoidance, wondered how he could get the treatment of being summoned when he had just arrived in Tokyo City. If in previous years, if it was not delayed until it could not be delayed any longer, the Song people would never let him, a Liao person, go to the palace.

But doubts are doubts, Xiao Xi did not waste precious time, went in and took a quick shower, changed into clean clothes and rushed out. Before going in to change clothes, he did not forget to remind the deputy envoy Yuan Rang that his outfit should reflect the style of Da Liao, and he could not lose to the courtiers of the Song State.

Riding horses, Xiao Xi and Yuan Rang rushed to Xuande Gate. When he arrived at the city gate, Xiao Xi dismounted first, and Yuan Rang followed suit, hurrying to the city.

With the imperial envoy leading the way, the officials who came and went inside and outside the palace avoided the road, stopped, and watched the two arrive in front of the Xuande Gate.

Sure enough, it's eye-catching.

Xiao Xi was secretly happy in his heart, Da Liao's clothing was different from that of the Southern Dynasty, and children were used to seeing long legs and square heart curved collars. He, a specially dressed envoy, went to the palace, and the little emperor would definitely take a few more looks. With Yuan Rang's appearance, he can also scare the little emperor at the very least. Children are not fully aware of their souls and are the most frightened. If the little emperor of the Song State was so frightened and sick, or even scared to death, for a seat, the Song people would definitely fight in the dark.

Xiao Xi is not afraid of any problems, being frightened by the envoys is the emperor's own problem, and he has no face to put it on the table.

Walking into the door next to the Xuande Gate, the door opening is long and narrow, and the bright light of the front exit is far away.

Xiao Xi followed the envoy Xu Bu to the front, thinking about how to make Yuan Rang's appearance exert the greatest power.

But suddenly, there was a loud bang, like thunder exploding in my ears.

The thunder sound was transmitted back and forth in the doorway, and the echoes overlapped, and the sound waves were higher and higher, and they swooped towards Xiao Xi and the others.

Xiao Xi was caught off guard, so frightened that his feet weakened, staggered a step, and almost fell to the ground.

But this situation is no different from falling. What's more, there is also the deputy envoy Yuan Rang who fell down together.

Seeing the loss of etiquette, it was Da Liao's face that was lost.

There was nothing unusual about the officials of the surrounding Song Kingdom, but their eyes became gloating. It's as if the loud noise just now is just an illusion on the part of himself and his companions.

The lieutenant envoy stopped, turned around and asked in surprise, "Ambassador Xiao, Deputy Envoy Yuan, but are you sick?" ”

Xiao Xi looked at the surprise on the envoy's face, and wondered in his heart, what the hell is going on?
