Geng Nanzhong caught up with Zhao Huan, the Son of Heaven, who was about to return to the inner palace, "Your Majesty, please wait!" ”

Zhao Huan stopped Long Yuan and asked, "What else is going on with Geng Aiqing?" ”

"Your Majesty, it's hard to say what you are doing in the side hall just now, but Wu Xiaomin told me personally today that there are some terms that can be negotiated with Your Majesty."

Zhao Huan was immediately overjoyed, and the boredom and distress in his heart were also swept away, and he hurriedly said, "I can summon him in Zichen Hall now." ”

He then asked Wu Min and Sun Fu to attend the summons together.

Zichen Hall is the place where the Son of Heaven of the Northern Song Dynasty performs sacrifices and receives foreign envoys, half an hour later, Zhao Huan met with Wu Xiaomin, the envoy of the Jin State in the Zichen Palace, to be precise, Wu Xiaomin is not the envoy of the Emperor of the Jin State, just the envoy of the Marshal of the Jin Army, Wanyan Xianye, he cannot represent the Jin State, and is generally not qualified to accept the summons of the Son of Heaven of the Great Song Dynasty in the Zichen Palace.

But today is an exception, Wanyan Xian also dominates the fate of Hebei Road and Hedong Road, and Zhao Huan also summoned him exceptionally.

Wu Xiaomin, a Han Chinese, made a big salute to Zhao Huan, and was immediately invited to sit down, and sat opposite Sun Fu, Wu Min, and Geng Nanzhong.

Zhao Huan sat on the high dragon couch and asked with a smile, "Has Mr. Wu's ancestor always lived in Yanshan Mansion?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the ancestor of the villain is a native of Suicheng County, Baozhou, probably in the second year of Xianping, the great-great-great-grandfather of the villain was plundered by the Liao soldiers to the Liao country, and since then, the ancestors of the villain have been living in the Liao country."

Zhao Huan suddenly felt great pity in his heart, it turned out that he was a descendant of the Song people, and the second year of Xianping should be the first five years of the Tanyuan Alliance, and he asked again: "What was the situation later?" ”

"The villain's ancestors have been in the Liao aristocratic mansion as a horse slave, responsible for raising horses, my father was released as a commoner because he saved the master's life, opened a shop in Yanjing City, and for the villain to study, ten years ago the villain was admitted to the Liao State Jinshi ........"

Wu Xiaomin talked eloquently, but Zhao Huan's gaze became more and more cordial, and he had a preconceived idea in his heart, believing that Wu Xiaomin, a descendant of the Song people, would definitely help the Song Dynasty emotionally.

But with Yan Xianye's cunning and cunning, how could he make such a low-level mistake, this Wu Xiaomin can come to the Song Dynasty to negotiate on his behalf, naturally he is his carefully selected henchman, and he also needs Wu Xiaomin to play the emotional card to persuade the Song Dynasty to swallow his bait.

"I heard Geng Aiqing say that the three conditions of your marshal are negotiable, I don't know how to understand them?"

Wu Xiaomin smiled slightly, "Needless to say, the first condition is needless to say, presumably the Song army should have celebrated and celebrated, and it has no practical significance, the key is the second and third conditions, my marshal proposed that if the third condition is handled well by the Song Dynasty, then the second condition can be discussed." ”

At this time, Sun Fu next to him asked, "Why does Jin Guo value Li Yanqing so much?" ”

Wu Xiaomin hesitated and said, "If I say that Li Yanqing is involved in the struggle for imperial power in the Jin Kingdom, do you believe it?" ”

Everyone was stunned, and Zhao Huan hurriedly asked, "Why is this?" ”

Wu Xiaomin said unhurriedly: "The key is the death of the old wolf lord Wanyan Aguta, it is said that the old wolf lord left his last words before his death, and the avenger for him can succeed the unification of the Jin State, and the Jin State is to put the blame for the death of the old wolf master on Li Yanqing, so there are people in the Jin Kingdom who want to kill Li Yanqing wholeheartedly, but some people don't want Li Yanqing to be killed, the condition proposed by the marshal of my family before attacking Tokyo is to hand over Li Yanqing, but this time after he came back from the Yanshan Mansion, his tone changed, he can not hand over Li Yanqing, we estimate that someone has put pressure, I don't want the battle for imperial power in the Jin Kingdom to be rippling again. ”

The reason why the Jin people were afraid of Li Yanqing was because the two fiascos of the Jin State in Taiyuan and the capital were defeated by Li Yanqing, and the Jin State knew that the Song people were afraid of the military and public opinion, and would never dare to hand over Li Yanqing, so they retreated and asked the Song Dynasty to completely deprive Li Yanqing of his military power.

The so-called dispute involving the imperial power of the Jin State is just a lie carefully fabricated to cover up the real jealousy of the Jin people, I have to say that the lies made up by Wan Yan Xian also have a clear pertinence and a strong sense of involvement, which made Zhao Huan think of his throne all of a sudden, coupled with Wu Xiaomin's serious nonsense as a descendant of the Song people, which made Zhao Huan and several Xiangguo convinced.

"Now the Jin State military camp is also full of factions, for Li Yanqing to lead to a lot of contradictions, and even the east and west generals are not in harmony because of this, so Marshal Du must eliminate Li Yanqing's influence as soon as possible, when I left, Marshal Du specially met with me, he personally promised that as long as Li Yanqing completely disappeared in the army, and at the same time transferred Li Yanqing's army, then the second condition can be canceled, as long as this condition is done, then the Song Dynasty can take one million taels of silver to redeem Taiyuan."

Zhao Huan was surprised and delighted, surprised that the other party's boss actually thought of it with him and deprived Li Yanqing of his military power, he couldn't find a reason to remove Li Yanqing's military power, but today he sent it to the door.

And the joy is that the other party promised to cancel the second condition, at this moment, Zhao Huan finally made up his mind, in order to get back Taiyuan as soon as possible, he will remove Li Yanqing from military power today,

.........

"I'm really honored!"

Li Yanqing sat in the study, took a sip of tea unhurriedly, raised his thick eyebrows, and said to Sun Fu in a mocking tone: "I will actually affect the imperial power of the Jin Kingdom, am I a strange commodity to live in?" ”

Sun Fu was naturally entrusted by Zhao Huan to make final negotiations with Li Yanqing, and Zhao Huan still hoped that Li Yanqing would take the initiative to resign to minimize the impact on the army, and of course, he would also make some conciliatory concessions to Li Yanqing.

Sun Fu smiled and said, "Actually, it has nothing to do with us, we only care about when we can take back Taiyuan." ”

"Since Taiyuan is mentioned, let's talk about Taiyuan, are you sure that the Jin Congress will return Taiyuan to the Great Song Dynasty?"

Sun Fu nodded, "This is the other party's offer to redeem it with one million taels of silver, since the other party took the initiative to buy it, I should really make a statement." ”

Li Yanqing shook his head again and smiled: "I don't know what Jin Guo said about Taiyuan, referring to Taiyuan City or Taiyuan Mansion?" And the states and counties south of Taiyuan will also be returned? In addition, will Jin Bing guarantee the integrity of Taiyuan City? Have you considered these details? ”

Sun Fu was speechless for a while, they really hadn't considered these details, he pondered for a moment, "What you said, we will implement it one by one during the negotiation." ”

"Alright! Let's get down to business, since the official family has decided to let me change to a civilian position, then I have no problem, but I have two small requests. ”

Sun Fu was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "As long as the requirements are reasonable, the official family will definitely consider them as appropriate." ”

"The first request is to modify Wang Gui's reward, he has made great contributions in Hebei, and he has only been promoted to two levels, which is low, I hope to promote him to the general of Zhengsi Zhongwu and serve as the deputy commander of the Jingzhao Army."

Wang Gui is currently the captain of the Zhengliupin Zhaowu, he ranks second in the current military merit book, second only to Liu Kuang, but the imperial court set him the merit is to be promoted by two levels, from the sixth rank to the fifth grade, and give the viscount, Li Yanqing thinks it is unfair, and hopes to be promoted to the fourth grade, and justifiably serves as the deputy commander of the Jingzhao Army and becomes the deputy general of Liu Kuang, after Li Yanqing fades out of the military, Liu Kuan will take over his position and serve as the commander of the Jingzhao Army.

The Jingzhao Army has a total of 50,000 people, in addition to the 30,000 troops in Tokyo, there are also 20,000 troops stationed in Tongguan and Pujin Pass, which are currently commanded by Cao Xing and Gao Chong.

Sun Fu nodded, "This request should not be excessive, I believe the official family will agree." ”

"The second requirement is to hope that the Jingzhao Army will be temporarily stationed in Luoyang, and if the capital is in danger, the Jingzhao Army can come to the rescue in time."

"If it's in Xingyang, isn't it a little further from the capital?" Sun Fu said with a smile.

Li Yanqing shook his head, "It's better to go to Luoyang, I'm worried that the Jin soldiers will blockade Kunguan, so that the Western Army will not be able to come to help in time." ”

"Alright! I'm going to talk to the official, besides, what are your personal requirements for official position? ”

"I don't care, whether I stay in the court or become an official in other places, I obey the arrangements of the court."

Sun Fu appreciated Li Yanqing's statement very much, no matter where he went in the end? But with this statement, it is difficult for some ill-intentioned people in the court to grasp Li Yanqing's handle.

"It's not early, I'll go back and report to the official!"

Sun Fu got up and said goodbye and left, and when Sun Fu left, Li Yanqing said coldly to his soldiers: "You go to the barracks quickly and summon Liu Jian and Wang Gui to see me!" ”

..........

In the evening of the same day, there was news in the palace that it was planned to appoint Li Yanqing as the imperial historian and proclaim the two roads of Jinghu.
