In the huge Xingxiang Palace, there are only a few people left, Li Jing, Li Jingsui, Yang Lian are naturally indispensable, Li Hongji, Sun Sheng, Song Qiqiu and others have special identities, and they also stayed, everyone looked at Yang Lian, some were full of appreciation, and some were full of disdain.

Yang Lian talked eloquently about the dots, and said what he thought in his heart, Li Jing nodded again and again, Yang Lian's plan is a good way, and there is a great possibility of success.

Song Qiqiu smiled slightly, for a long time, he had not had much contact with Yang Lian, but through King Qi, he still had some understanding. The key at this time is that Yang Lian belongs to the line of King Qi, and his relationship with King Qi is also good, Sun Sheng, Chang Mengxi and even Li Hongji are enemies, so Song Qiqiu decided to help Yang Lian.

"Your Majesty, General Yang's method is indeed feasible." Song Qiqiu said.

As a founding veteran and an important minister of the imperial court, Song Qiqiu's words are naturally worth paying attention to, not to mention that Yang Lian has already analyzed the pros and cons, Li Jing nodded again and again when he heard this, his eyes swept over Prime Minister Sun Sheng, Qi King Li Jingsui and others, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, what is your opinion." ”

Sun Sheng pursed his lips and didn't speak, how could he support Yang Lian at this time?

Li Jingsui, the king of Qi, paced and thought very seriously, and only then did he say: "Brother Huang, my brother thinks this is the best way, you can give it a try." ”

Under the general trend, Li Hongji also nodded and said, "Father, you can give it a try." ”

Most of the important ministers present agreed, and Li Jing agreed, saying, "Since this is the case, this matter will be done according to Yang Aiqing's method." ”

In the imperial court, the news soon came out, the envoy of the Han State met with the Tang Emperor, and because of his disrespectful words, the Tang Emperor was furious and imprisoned Liu Xin and his party in the prison. Even, the Son of Heaven did not wait for the trial, and directly sentenced Liu Xin and others to a decisive decision.

"Ye Law Envoy, are you satisfied with such a result?" In Honglu Temple, Yang Lian said with a smile.

Yelu Haili obviously didn't expect the Tang Dynasty to be so decisive. He even sent the King of Qi to comfort him and rewarded him with a lot of things, which made Yelu Haili very satisfied, Datang was sincere, and it was beneficial to form an alliance with Datang.

Yelu Haili immediately signed a peace treaty with Yang Lian, and for this trip, Yelu Haili thought that the goal had been achieved. A few days later, Yelu Haili witnessed the Tang Dynasty beheading Liu Xin and others, and left satisfied. Jeruhaili thought. Liu Xin and the others are dead. But in fact, Liu Xin is still alive.

Liu Xin's spirit in the prison is okay, although the place where he lives is a little worse, but compared to death, what are these? It's just that he can't figure it out, why did Yang Lian save him?

When Yang Lian entered the prison again, Liu Xin raised questions.

How could Yang Lian tell the real reason? He just told Liu Xin that Yelu Haili had left Jinling. Next, it was time for the Tang Dynasty to negotiate with the Han people.

The conditions proposed by Yang Lian are actually very simple. That is to live in peace, the Tang Dynasty is rich, but in the court, the style of luxury is very prevalent, driven by the son of heaven Li Jing, Han Xizai, Sun Sheng, Chang Mengxi and others are also luxury people. The emperor is just that. Han Xizai was born in a poor family, and just relying on the little money he was an official was not enough to support the use of the mansion. So where does this money come from? It is nothing more than corruption, taking the power in your hands by force.

Yang Lian came to Jinling for only a year, and then found the surroundings of Jinling. Land annexation has reached an extremely terrifying point, high-ranking officials and nobles have hundreds of thousands or even tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, and some people do not even have a place to stand up, if it were not for the fact that Jinling's industry and commerce are also very developed, you can rely on coolies, help people to work and other methods to obtain money, to feed a family, I am afraid that Jinling would have been chaotic long ago.

Now Datang needs to recuperate, and if possible, Yang Lian even hopes to stop the wind of land annexation. Ancient China was a society dominated by an agrarian society, and farmland had a special meaning for most people.

Liu Xin obviously did not expect that Yang Lian would choose to negotiate peace with the Han Kingdom, and the content of the peace talks was the discussion of the opening of the border between the two sides, mutual business, and the export of tea, ceramics and other goods by the Tang Dynasty in exchange for the iron of the Han Kingdom. At this time, there were not many places to produce iron in the Tang Dynasty, and to equip the army, iron tools or iron ore were indispensable. And the north is in turmoil, the economy is devastated, whether it is tea or ceramics, it is far from enough. In fact, Liu Xin also wanted to buy grain from Datang, but Yang Lian refused.

At this time, Datang ate more rice, while the north mainly ate wheat, millet and other foods, and was not used to eating rice, so Liu Xin gave up after persevering a little.

In addition to opening up negotiations and trade, the two sides agreed to be friends and never invade - of course, everyone knows that this article has no binding ability at all, once the Han State integrates the interior, or the Tang Dynasty solves the internal contradictions, the two sides will inevitably clash again.

However, as far as the current situation is concerned, this is in the interest of both sides. At Yang Lian's insistence, Liu Xin reluctantly accepted that the Han Kingdom gave Datang two hundred war horses for free every year. Although the number is not much, Yang Lian also knows that if it is more, Liu Xin may not accept it. Moreover, I am afraid that the Han Kingdom will be destroyed by Guo Wei in a few years, and it is better to get a little benefit than to be stiff.

The content of this peace treaty is much better than what Sun Sheng talked about at the beginning, except for getting iron weapons and war horses, the Tang Dynasty and the Han Kingdom are on an equal footing, which makes Li Jing very satisfied and happily signed the letter of state. Liu Xin saved his life and achieved his goal, as for the mutual trade with Datang is a mutually beneficial thing, it also means that Liu Zhiyuan signed a peace treaty.

Li Jing is satisfied, Liu Xin is satisfied, and Li Jingsui is also satisfied. However, Yang Lian was not satisfied.

Yang Lian was not very satisfied because he felt a deep sense of crisis, he vaguely remembered that after Liu Zhiyuan established the Han State, he died soon after, and the successor was incapable and killed the ministers indiscriminately, which led to Guo Wei's rebellion, and the Han State seemed to exist for only a few years. In this way, I am afraid that the Han Kingdom will perish in two or three years.

At the same time, he also felt that Li Jun really didn't have much ambition, and the Han State recognized the same status as the Tang Dynasty, so he was overjoyed, obviously his requirements were too low.

After thinking about it, Yang Lian said that Li Jing, the son of heaven of the Tang Dynasty, said that since the Tang Dynasty signed an alliance with the Han State, the Tang Dynasty is still a country of etiquette, and it is necessary to send envoys to the Han Kingdom.

Li Jun hesitated, and at this time, the king of Qi made a statement, saying that the Han people had wolf ambitions and had to be guarded against. Even if a treaty is signed, it may not be useful. After all, in the face of interests, what is a paper covenant?

Li Jun felt that King Qi's words made sense, but he hesitated, who to send to envoy Han?

Li Jingsui smiled and said, "Yang Lian has made a contribution this time and successfully concluded an alliance with the Khitan and Han people, at least for a short time, Datang can rest easy." In terms of the right candidate, who has Yang Lian who is suitable? ”

At this time, Yang Lian had just finished his work, and he was about to rest for a while, but he didn't expect that the sacred heart was unpredictable, and he wanted him to envoy to the Han Kingdom, so he had to smile bitterly.

"What, Li Jun wants you to send an envoy to the Han Kingdom?" In the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Zeng Yiling's eyes widened.

"There's nothing wrong with going to Han." Yang Lian said with a smile.

Zeng Yiling shook his head and said: "Liu Zhiyuan is dispatching troops to prepare to attack Du Chongwei in Weizhou, I am afraid there will be difficulties if you go." ”

"There are difficulties, in fact, what you and I do now, isn't it difficult? Some things have to be done no matter how difficult they are. Yang Lian said lightly.

Zeng Yiling glanced at Yang Lian and said, "I just like you." ”

Yang Lian smiled slightly and said, "Really?" Take it. As he spoke, he held out his hand.

Zeng Yiling was startled, took a step back, hugged his chest, and said, "What are you doing here?" ”

Yang Lian sighed and said, "What are you thinking, I asked you for Guo Wei's portrait." ”

Zeng Yiling snorted, turned around and walked back, tossed in a cabinet for a while, took out a scroll of paintings, handed it to Yang Lian, and said, "Huh." ”

Yang Lian stretched out his hand to take it, opened it, and said with a smile: "This is Guo Wei?" It's really abstract. ”

Zeng Yiling frowned and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Yang Lian shook his head and said, "Nothing." This time I went to Kaifeng, I want your help. ”

"Over there in Kaifeng, my power is not big, but if you want any news, I can still help." Zeng Yiling said.

Yang Lian nodded and said, "This time I will go to the Han Kingdom, and I will never come back if I don't toss some wind and rain." ”

Zeng Yiling smiled slightly and said, "What are you going to do?" ”

"The specifics are not clear, I have to make corresponding judgments based on the situation in Han." Yang Lian said.

Zeng Yiling thought for a while and said, "Since Li Jun wants you to send an envoy to the Han Kingdom, if you are a commander, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

"Li Jun naturally has his ideas, I'm not in a hurry." Yang Lian looked very relaxed.

Zeng Yiling was silent for a moment and said, "This time I went to Dahan, I'm afraid it will be more than lucky." I asked Mi Shiwei to go with you, what do you think? ”

"Miss Mi is strong in martial arts, if she is with her, it will be the best." Yang Lian said with a smile.

Zeng Yiling snorted coldly and said, "You don't have the idea of beating her." ”

"********, if you want me, why not?" Yang Lian smiled, and without waiting for Zeng Yiling to answer, he walked out with the scroll. hurriedly returned home and ordered Xiao Erhei to hang up Guo Wei's portrait.

Yang Lian was waiting for an opportunity. Sure enough, in the evening, Liu Xin got the news and rushed over with Zhao Hongyin, Zhao Kuangyin and his son.

Although he was once put on a position by Yang Lian, but no matter what, Liu Xin was finally rescued by Yang Lian, and this favor Liu Xin can not be reported, but when he heard that the Tang Dynasty was also going to send a messenger to Kaifeng to communicate with the Han Kingdom, Liu Xin immediately realized that this Yang Lian was not simple.

Therefore, Liu Xin took Zhao Hongyin, Zhao Kuangyin and his son to buy a lot of gifts and went to visit Yang Lian, hoping to find out some rumors from his mouth.

Yang Lian originally had a house given by the Son of Heaven in Guozijian, but Yang Lian rebuilt the house into a teahouse and a gambling house, and he received a lot of money every day, and with Yang Lian's identity, the taxes levied were not high, and Yang Lian was very profitable.

Liu Xin went to the tearoom at the beginning, found that Yang Lian was not there, and asked someone, only then did he know where Yang Lian lived, and the group hurriedly walked towards the inn. (To be continued.) )
