After the capture of the Second Emperor of Huiqin, the Xuanwu envoy immediately sent a message asking the Great Jin Dynasty to send troops to reinforce him. Because this matter could not be concealed for a long time, Wan Yansheng was very happy when he heard the news, and he didn't want to send troops to support. But they can't go by land, they can only choose to walk by water.

Wan Yan Sheng sent troops from Liaoyang Mansion, through the Bohai Sea to meet the Xuanwu envoy and others, when they saw that the second emperor of Huiqin was captured, they immediately rushed to Shangjing Mansion for 800 miles, and reported the news to Yan Sheng. After Yan Sheng learned about it, he immediately sent an envoy to the Great Song Dynasty court to negotiate with him.

The envoy of the Jin Dynasty was none other than Guo Yaoshi.

At the beginning, Guo Yaoshi also followed Zhao Gou to resist the Jin soldiers, and after the two sides fought, Zhao Gou sent people to search and found that there was no body of him, and there was no trace of him. When we met today, I learned that Guo Yaoshi had taken refuge in the Great Jin Dynasty and became the commander of the Jin Army, and he was the envoy this time.

"Your Royal Highness, don't come unharmed!" When Guo Yaoshi saw Zhao Gou, he immediately said a few words, he was already a general of the Jin Dynasty, and he was not afraid of what Zhao Gou would do to him, but this time he came prepared, and he didn't care about Zhao Gou and the others looking at him.

"It's you!" Gao Pet gritted his teeth and said, just about to step forward to take him down, but he never thought that there would be a traitor in the Great Song Dynasty.

"General Guo should have something to say when he sees this king!" Zhao Gou stopped Gao Zhong and said lightly, "I don't know what the emperor of the Jin Dynasty wants, you might as well say it!" ”

"Talk fast!" Pharmacist Guo praised, "When you talk to smart people, you don't have to say too much, which saves everyone's time." Today, I came to Bianjing City on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty to negotiate with His Royal Highness King Yan on the orders of the Emperor. ”

"What does he want us to do to release the Second Emperor?" Zhao Gou directly stated his purpose.

Guo Yaoshi replied: "I told the emperor that as long as King Yan agreed to the three requests, the second emperor of Huiqin could return to Bianjing safe and sound. If it can't be done, then the second emperor of Huiqin will be reduced to the lowest slave, and all decisions will be in the hands of King Yan. ”

"Which three requirements?"

"The first requirement is that the Song Dynasty must pay the annual coin to the Great Jin Dynasty, which is more than the Liao Dynasty of 100,000 pieces of silver, 100,000 cloth, silk and other things, that is, to bow down to the Great Jin Dynasty and see the emperor of the Jin Dynasty as a courtesy."

"The second requirement is that the Song Dynasty will cede land to compensate for the losses of the Southern Invasion of the Great Song Dynasty, and the emperor of our dynasty does not want to take advantage of the danger of others, but just take back the land that originally belonged to the Liao Dynasty, as long as the King of Yan agrees to cede the sixteen states of Yanyun to the Great Jin Dynasty, His Majesty the Emperor of our dynasty will naturally not pursue it, and will no longer send troops to attack the Great Song Dynasty."

"As for the third requirement, that is the head of King Yan! His Royal Highness King Yan led the Song army to kill more than 100,000 soldiers of our dynasty, and suffered heavy losses. ”

Guo Yaoshi paused, glanced at Zhao Gou again, and said lightly: "As long as His Royal Highness King Yan agrees to these three requests, then Song Jin will no longer go to war, and the second emperor of the Song Dynasty will also be sent back safely." If His Royal Highness can't do it, then it is unknown what the Second Emperor will look like in the Jin Dynasty. ”

Zhao Gou glared and said, "Are you threatening me?" What if I don't say yes? ”

"No promise?" Guo Yaoshi raised his head arrogantly, looked down at Zhao Gou, and said arrogantly: "If you don't agree, you just wait to collect the body for the second emperor!" You just wait for the Jin army to attack the Song Dynasty again, and watch the Song Dynasty fall with your own eyes! ”

"Now that the two emperors of Huiqin are in our hands, I still advise you, and then answer after thinking about it, don't let yourself leave regrets. If the second emperor of Huiqin really has an accident, I am afraid that His Royal Highness King Yan will be charged with killing his father and brother! ”

Gao Pet pointed at Pharmacist Guo's nose and scolded: "You wolf-hearted dog mongrel, I will kill you with one sword!" ”

"Stop!" Zhao Gou shouted, "Don't retreat!" Don't you even listen to my commands? ”

"Yes!" Gao Zhong retreated helplessly, not daring to make any moves, but his eyes were full of murderous aura, as if he wanted to kill Guo Yaoshi immediately.

Guo Yaoshi was taken aback by Gao Zhong's behavior, and said again: "Another thing to add, this person is rude to this messenger, and when the time comes, he will go on the road with you, otherwise the consequences will not be borne by you!" I stayed in Bianjing City for a few days and waited for His Royal Highness King Yan's reply. ”

Pharmacist Guo ignored Zhao Gou, didn't even look at him, and turned around and left with a high spirit.

"Lord Wang, why don't you let me kill this despicable villain!"

Zhao Gou replied: "If it was really possible, I would have killed it a long time ago." Now is not the time, he is an envoy of the Jin Dynasty, if there is anything in case, it is not easy to explain to the Jin Dynasty. If it weren't for the Second Emperor Huiqin in the hands of the Jin Dynasty, even if they killed him, they would be helpless. ”

"Ninth brother, we can't agree to these three requests!" Zhao Yougong said solemnly, "No matter what the conditions, the future of the Great Song Dynasty will definitely be in jeopardy. Whether it is to bow down to the vassals, or to cede land for compensation, or to apologize for one's own crimes, these cannot be agreed. ”

"If all the sixteen states of Yanyun are given to the Jin Dynasty, then the Jin soldiers invade the Great Song Dynasty in the south, which is the best barrier, and the Central Plains region will ask for it, and the Jin soldiers and iron cavalry can gallop on the land of my Great Song Dynasty, which is absolutely unacceptable."

"Ninth brother, you led the soldiers of the Song army to work together to successfully block the pace of the Jin soldiers, this is because they are afraid of you. If the Great Song Dynasty loses you, then the Great Song Dynasty will also go to the road of destruction. So no matter which one you can't agree to, if you do, then the Great Song Dynasty will really be finished. ”

"What His Royal Highness the King of Chu said is extremely true, and the ministers are all against such conditions!"

Pan Lianggui, Li Gang and others echoed Zhao Yougong's words, they all felt that they could not agree to this matter, and the ambition of the golden man and wolf, even if they agreed, could not guarantee that they would not be treacherous, and resolutely sent troops to attack the Great Song Dynasty.

"How could I not know this!" Zhao Gou said helplessly, "However, the two emperors of Huiqin are in the hands of the Jin people, they hold our lifeline, if we don't agree, there will be danger." If I don't agree, how will the people of the world think of me, they will inevitably think that I, Zhao Gou, am in power and careless about the life and death of the second emperor, then I am a sinner of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Even then, that can't be promised!" Zhao Yougong said resolutely, "They just think that the Second Emperor Huiqin is very important to our dynasty, but the situation in front of them is not what they think at all." The country can't be without a monarch for a day, they think that the second emperor of Huiqin is in their hands, we will be beaten passively, it is better to re-establish a new monarch, at that time there is no need to worry about their threat, even if the second emperor of Huiqin really has something, it is also for the sake of the overall situation, even if the world will not say anything. ”

"Ascend the throne as the emperor and re-establish a new monarch?" Zhao Gou frowned and said, "But the second emperor of Huiqin is not dead, if he really establishes a new monarch, it will be tantamount to committing rebellion." Besides, the imperial brother did not make an edict, and his name is not right! ”

Everyone was silent again, they all knew that there was no edict to inherit the throne, and they rashly ascended the throne and became emperor, which was to commit the crime of rebellion. If the second emperor of Huiqin returned to Beijing, they would all be guilty ministers, and their names would not be right. Even if the situation is urgent, it has to be carefully considered.
