Zhao Qi took out the draft resolution from the bookcase, turned the second page and said, "It's written very clearly!" It is not a forced removal of the knighthood, the imperial uncle can choose to keep the title. ”

"Then what about my manor in Chenzhou? A thousand acres of land! Just handed it in? ”

"It just said that if you agree to remove the knight, you can return the former Grange property."

"What about not accepting the dismissal? The Grange industry is gone, isn't that what it means? ”

"In fact, from the perspective of interests, the imperial uncle still chooses to remove the lord, anyway, the imperial uncle's prince cannot be passed on to the descendants, at most it will be gone in more than ten years, and the descendants of the imperial uncle will not be able to get the land, and the imperial uncle will be blamed for today's decision."

"I mean, the former land property must be fought for, and the prince cannot get rid of it!"

Zhao Qi was silent for a moment and asked, "Is the mansion where Uncle Huang lives now his own?" ”

"Of course it's my own, the land I bought with my own money, who will care if we live or die after moving south."

Zhao Qi nodded, "That's right, even the authentic Zhao Clan's Heavenly Son doesn't care about the life or death of the imperial uncle, can the imperial uncle still count on Li Yanqing to be merciful?" ”

Zhao Si was taken aback, "You mean, this resolution is actually what Li Yanqing meant?" ”

"I think it should be Li Yanqing's meaning, to allow the royal family to do business and return the former land and grange to us, this is Li Yanqing's concession, but we need to pay something, and the imperial uncle has never thought about it?"

"Li Yanqing asked us to give up the title in exchange for benefits?" Zhao Si's eyes widened.

Zhao Qi smiled and said, "Does Uncle Huang know how I decided?" ”

"You say!"

"I went to Zongzheng Temple this afternoon and put forward my conditions, I can give up the title, one condition is to return my manor in Kaifeng Mansion and Bianliang's property, and the other condition is that the palace I live in now belongs to me and becomes my private residence, which I can pass on to my son."

"You're confused!"

Zhao Si banged on the table angrily, "You gave up not only the title, but also Zhao Song Jiangshan!" ”

"Uncle Huang, I know very well in my heart, this is Li Yanqing releasing military power with a glass of wine, if I don't know what to do, I will die within three years, when the title is gone, there is nothing, what tragic fate my son will have, I don't know yet!"

"This ......" Zhao Si was blocked and couldn't say a word.

Zhao Qi took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "I poured urine on Jin Bing's shit in Huanglong Mansion, I was so hungry that I even ate mice, I was so thirsty that I could only eat snow, and I swore at that time that if I could go back to the Central Plains, I must live the rest of my life comfortably, what clan, power is bullshit, only white silver, only rich food and houses are the most precious, just because of this title of King Jing, I have already died once in the hands of the Jurchens, I don't want to die a second time, Uncle Huang wants to fight for power, go to find someone else!" I have signed this afternoon at Zongzheng Temple, and I am willing to give up the prince. ”

Zhao Si sighed and said for a while: "You just said that if I don't sign the dismissal, will I be killed?" ”

"Uncle Huang, there is an old saying called toasting and not eating and drinking, you can think about it yourself!"

Zhao Si came angrily, but when he went back, he was full of loss, and walked out of the palace, he looked up to the sky and sighed, "I, Zhao Song Jiangshan, is it really going to be over?" ”

．．．．．．．

At the same time that Li Yanqing led his army to capture Bianjing, north of Yanmen Pass, a 100,000-strong Song army was marching north, this army was a 100,000-strong tiger army led by Liu Qian, and their target was Datong Mansion in the north of Hedong Road.

Datong Mansion was originally the Xijing Road of the Liao State, including Datong Mansion, Shuozhou, Yingzhou and Ulzhou and other three states and one province, after the fall of the Liao State, the Western Xia also peeked into the Xijing Road, eight years ago, the Western Xia army and the Jin soldiers broke out a big battle for the Xijing Road, and finally the Western Xia was defeated, and the Jin State captured the Xijing Road.

For the Great Song Dynasty, Xijing Province was originally also the land of the Central Plains Dynasty, which was called Shuozhou, Yunzhou and Ulzhou in the Tang Dynasty, and had always been under the jurisdiction of the central court.

Therefore, when signing the maritime alliance with the Jin State, it was clear that after the fall of the Liao State, the Song Dynasty would take back the Xijing Road, but it was not until today that the army of the Great Song Dynasty stepped into the Xijing Road for the first time.

The Song army first entered Shuozhou, Shuozhou has a small population, only tens of thousands of people, mainly Han people, but he is a Han of Liao, after the fall of Liao, they became Han people of Jin again, but they do not have a strong sense of identity with Jin, and they are more suspicious and afraid of the Song Dynasty.

Therefore, when Liu Tie led the 5,000 vanguard army into Shanyang County, the people in the city closed their doors and closed their doors, the streets were deserted, the people were hiding in their houses and looking out, and the men were holding knives and preparing to fight hard.

At this time, several officials rushed over and saluted the leading official: "Xiaguan Luo Beichao is the county order of this county!" ”

Liu Tie felt a little weird, the other party was obviously Han Chinese, spoke fluent Chinese, but was not an official of the Song Dynasty, he asked, "You are an official appointed by the Jin State?" ”

Luo Beichao smiled bitterly, "Xiaguan is a Jinshi in the second year of Liao Guobao, first as a county official, after the Jin soldiers occupied Shuozhou, the original Khitan county order ran away, and Xia Guan was appointed as a county commander." ”

"We are Song Jun!"

"The lower official knows, and only implores the general not to disturb the people, and if there is any request, the lower official will try his best to solve it."

"I don't actually have any material requirements, but I want to know the situation of Jin Bing now."

"The situation of the Jin soldiers is very simple, they have not changed since they occupied Xijing, and 20,000 cavalry have been stationed in Datong Mansion."

"I've never been to you?"

Luo Beichao shook his head, "The army has never left Datong Mansion, but it is just a lowly duty to go to Datong Mansion to report on work." ”

Liu Tie really didn't feel comfortable listening to it, so he said coldly: "From today onwards, you don't have to go to Datong Mansion to report on your work. ”

"Xia Guan understands!"

Liu Tie suddenly remembered something and asked, "Since this is Shuozhou, where is the governor of Shuozhou?" ”

"General Hui, the population of Shuozhou is only 30,000, and most of them are concentrated in Shanyang County, so the lower official also serves as the Taishou of Shuozhou, in fact, the county government and the state government are the same thing."

At this time, a cavalryman rushed from behind, and the cavalry clenched his fists and said to Liu Tie: "The capital has arrived, please take the officials here to the camp for questioning." ”

"I see!"

Liu Tie said to Luo Beichao: "You guys come with me to the camp!" I won't embarrass you, I'll let you go after the question. ”

Luo Beichao didn't dare not go, he had to take the county Cheng and the county lieutenant to follow Liu Tie to the camp.

An army of 100,000 has also arrived in Shanyang County, and the army simply set up a big tent, and hundreds of scouts went to monitor the enemy's situation dozens of miles away.

At this time, Liu Jian was checking the march route on the map in the big tent of the Chinese army, and the army first went to Shanyang County, Shuozhou, and then traveled east along the Sanggan River, and when it arrived at Yingxian County, Yingzhou, it turned north and went north along the Datong River to Datong Mansion.

The climate here was similar to that of Western Xia, with hot and dry summers, and the march had to follow the river, especially for an army of 100,000 men, for whom water was extremely important.

The same is true for the Jin soldiers, if the 20,000 cavalry goes south to meet the battle, they must also march along the river.

At this time, a soldier outside the tent reported: "Dutong, General Liu is here, with a local official." ”

"Let them in!"

After a while, Liu Tie walked into the big tent with Luo Beichao, and Luo Beichao bowed and saluted, "Xiaguan Shanyang County ordered Luo Beichao to see Liu Dutong." ”

"Are you Han?"

"Xiaguan's great-grandfather was from Taiyuan Mansion."

"How did that end up going north?"

Luo Beichao smiled bitterly, "There was only one situation for the Han people who went to the north in that era, they were caught by the Liao army threshing grass, but my great-grandfather was a merchant, and the goods and money were robbed by horse bandits, and he couldn't return to his hometown, so he had to stay in Shuozhou, and our descendants could only stay in Shuozhou." ”

Liu Jian nodded, "Have you been to Datong Mansion?" ”

"Xia Guan only went to Datong Mansion two months ago to report on his work."

"I want to know about the situation in Datong Mansion, how much can you tell me?"

"The lower official can only tell the situation of Datong City, but the official of the Jin soldiers really doesn't know, their military camp is in the north of Datong City, I have never been there, and I have never seen the Jin soldiers."

"Then let's talk about Datong City!"
