Chapter 813: Blackmail by force

Full text without advertising Chapter 813 Armed extortion

Xu Liang put a chopstick dish in his mouth, chewed a few bites tastelessly, his expression was gloomy, and he hummed from time to time in his nose, which made the wife next to him very confused, and even the son opposite became cautious, for fear of angering his father.

After a while, Xu Liu even forgot to pick up the dishes, and only cared about the rice, Mrs. took a piece of meat and put it in his bowl, and asked cautiously: "Xianggong, what happened to the court?" ”

Xu Liu, the Hun family, is also from a famous family, he has always respected him, although he was in a bad mood, he still said: "The matter of Lao Jiu." ”

"Ninth brother? What happened to him? Got you in trouble? Mrs. Xu asked. It's not surprising that she has this kind of thought, imagine that her husband is the second minister of the imperial court, after the Xu family members have passed away, Xu Liu is the head of the Xu family as a matter of course, and when she heard that her husband was hurt because of Lao Jiu, she wondered if this cousin was in trouble.

"You don't understand it." Xu Liang said casually.

Mrs. Xu glanced at her son opposite, and said, "Although I don't understand, he always understands." "Xu Liu's eldest son is going to participate in the imperial examination this year, and the court thinks that this Yanei High School is certain, not a black-box operation, but Xu Xiang, who is very talented and learned, is also well-known in Hangzhou. Xu Liang himself is also full of confidence in his son, not to mention the champion or anything, Jinshi and the first did not run.

Therefore, he deliberately cultivated his son's familiar judgment on the major affairs of the court and politics very early, and when he heard his wife say this, he said: "The Sichuan Shaanxi Xuanfu Disposal Division has come to the book, and a major change has occurred in the Jin Kingdom, and Yan Liang has killed the monarch and usurped the throne." Your ninth uncle took this opportunity to send troops to attack the Jin Kingdom in two ways. ”

His eldest son's name is Xu Han, in his early twenties, in his prime, and his bearing is extraordinary, listening to his father, Uncle Ninth is the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, and he has the right to act cheaply, and it is understandable to take the opportunity to attack gold, but his father is unhappy, presumably because this time is very sensitive. Thinking of this, he said: "My father originally did not agree with Song Jin's peace, but the situation forced him to do it as a last resort. Now that Uncle Nine is taking the opportunity to break the peace agreement, why is his father unhappy? ”

Xu Liang took a mouthful of rice to his mouth, and was surprised when he heard this, put down the dishes and chopsticks and said, "Do you think your ninth uncle is right?" ”

"I don't know if I'm right or not, but Uncle Nine's move, my father should be happy." Xu Han said.

Xu Liang sighed: "If it is usual, I will naturally be happy for my father." But now the time is not right, people are looking at our Xu family's high position, he is doing this at this time, isn't he hitting someone's knife? ”

Xu Han highlighted the astonishing words at this time: "The handle of the knife is held in the hands of Uncle Jiu, who dares to hold the knife to him?" ”

Prime Minister Xu Liang was also stunned by this sentence, and said angrily: "Shaft! Ann dares to say this! ”

Xu Han also knew that he had lost his words, so he stood up in a panic and bowed his head silently. When Mrs. Xu saw it, she hurriedly persuaded: "Big brother said casually, why should you take it seriously?" ”

"Is this nonsense? What kind of knife handle is in Lao Jiu's hand, do you know what this means? If these words leak out, the Xu family is afraid that a big disaster will come! Xu Liang was really anxious, and even his wife, who had always respected each other, reprimanded him.

I couldn't eat this, Xu Liang said to his son angrily: "You come with me!" After speaking, he got up and left. Mrs. Xu hurriedly reminded her son not to contradict his father, and Xu Han responded and followed his father.

When the father and son came to the study, Xu Liang also specially instructed his son to cover the door, and when he turned around, he scolded with a slap on his face: "I don't know what the sky is high and the earth is thick!" People who are about to enter the office, what to say and what not to say, don't you have a score in your heart? Do you know what the nature of that sentence is? What do you think of your ninth uncle? ”

Xu Han was under his father's anger, and he didn't distinguish between them, and listened silently, and when his father said it for a long time, his anger was probably gone, and then he said: "My son is a gaffe, but with Uncle Jiu's status today, I'm afraid I can't help him." ”

Xu Liang frowned, and wanted to train again, but he didn't know where to start for a while. That's right, Lao Jiu has taken root in Sichuan and Shaanxi, not to mention that he has been holding the military, political and financial power for many years, how many children of the Xu family are there in the Western Army? Six economic strategy divisions, one pacification division, except for Liu Guangshi, are all his own people. It is also Lao Jiu who is very cautious in dealing with the court, and has not acted lawlessly, otherwise, the trend of secession would have been obvious a long time ago.

"What do you know? No matter how strong your ninth uncle is, he is a courtier after all, and if the Son of Heaven gives an edict, he can only leave. Xu Liang said.

Xu Han didn't think so: "Isn't this self-destruction of the Great Wall? How could the Son of Heaven give such an edict? ”

"Don't you listen?" Xu Liang suddenly had a seizure.

"The father is angry, and the son listens to the teachings." Xu Han bowed his head and said.

Xu Liang sat there and sighed, and said: "Lao Jiu is a little hasty this time, he should know that the reason why the Zhao official family wants to negotiate peace is because they don't like to fight, and because of the Liu family." This agreement was reached, Liu Jiajia made great contributions, he was good, and a few days after the conclusion of the peace agreement, he tore it up. Even if you have the right to act cheaply, the stakes are too great! Yesterday the book went up, and today the Holy Lord will definitely call me and King Lin to ask, how can this be answered? ”

"After Yan Liang killed the monarch and usurped the throne, the Jin Kingdom will definitely have internal strife, and Uncle Jiu's move is understandable." Xu Han whispered.

"You're still young, how do you know how deep and shallow the water is? If tomorrow Zhiyan grasps this handle and gives your ninth uncle a hat without court, it will be troublesome. Xu Liang was worried about this.

"I heard that King Lin and Uncle Nine have a very close personal relationship, shouldn't it be like this?" Xu Han wondered.

"Hmph, doll, you are too naΓ―ve, what is a personal relationship? Our Xu family is beautiful in the forest, blocking the front of the Zhi family, can Zhi Yan not think about it? Xu Liang looked at his son, although he was teaching a lesson, his eyes also showed kindness. It was as if he had traveled all over the rivers and saw a toddler splashing at the water's edge.

As the father and son were talking, Mrs. Xu's voice sounded outside, probably because she was afraid that her husband would scold her son, so she came to protect her. Xu Liang called her in, but saw that his wife was holding a letter in her hand, so he asked, "Whose letter is it?" ”

Xu Fu glanced at his son a few times, and then handed over the letter: "Look at yourself." ”

Xu Liang glanced at the cover, immediately sat up straight and picked up the letter and opened it to read. I didn't look at it for a while, my face was cloudy, and at the end, my brows were tightened, and finally I handed it to my son: "Your ninth uncle's letter." After finishing speaking, he ignored his wife and children, and went out to the palace.

When I arrived in Ouchi, I went straight to the Chinese book, and I didn't go to my office first, but ran to the deputy minister in charge and asked: "Is there a book of King Wuwei?" ”

On February 19, the emperor's imperial document and the provincial document of the Chinese book arrived in Xingyuan at the same time, and after Xu Wei read it, he was furious! Zhang Jun was not present at the time, he scolded in front of Ma Kuo: "What! I still don't believe it! After scolding, he ordered someone to go to the pavilion and summoned the envoy of the Jin State to meet him.

The envoy of the Jin State, Li Laoseng, stayed in the pavilion for five days, and was not allowed to be summoned, but he did not dare to urge, so he waited patiently, and finally waited for the summons of the king of Xujun, and then took the deputy envoy to clean up and hurriedly went to the Sichuan and Shaanxi Xuanfu disposal division yamen. When I got there, I saw that the official mansion of the Great Song Dynasty was really extraordinary, especially the power center in the west, which was even more majestic.

Hold your mind and enter the yamen under the leadership of the leading officials. Because it was to meet foreign envoys, it had to be in the main hall, and after Li Laosheng and the deputy envoy stepped in, they had already seen four or five Han officials sitting in the hall. As soon as they stood still, all those people also got up, and they were also polite.

The official introduced to him: "Honorable envoy, this is King Xu Jun. ”

Old monk Li looked up and saw an official sitting in the hall, forty years old, tall, wearing a purple robe, with a head on his head, dignified appearance, sitting upright, and having a demeanor of everyone! He couldn't help but be a little surprised, although this was the first time he had seen Xu Wei, he had heard too many legends about this person for too long, thinking about how he should be an immortal general, how could he be young?

Touching the blazing gaze of King Jiongjiong of Xu Jun, Old Monk Li came back to his senses, and hurriedly leaned over and saluted: "Old Monk Li, the envoy of Dajin, has seen the king. ”

Xu Wei stretched out his hand and said politely: "The envoy has worked hard from afar, please sit down and serve tea." ”

Old monk Li thanked him, and couldn't help but be a little surprised after sitting down, thinking that Xu Wei must be arrogant, aggressive, and even rude, but looking at this appearance, he was polite and polite, and very polite!

This old monk Li was about to express his intentions, but he heard King Xu Jun say: "Honorable envoy, Xu is a martial artist, and he doesn't know much about the etiquette of state relations, if there is any neglect, please forgive me." In addition, I am a rough person, and it is better to talk to me directly, simple and clear, and complicated, I am afraid that I will not understand. At the end, he smiled.

Strange, is this the Purple Golden Tiger? How can you be so kind? Old Seng Li suddenly felt like a spring breeze, and the tension in his heart could not be relieved, because the other party wanted to go straight, he would not beat around the bush, so he arched his hand and said: "Dawang Guo is bold, then it will be straight to the point." ”

"That's exactly how it should be." Xu Wei chuckled.

"I am here to meet the king on the orders of His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Jin Kingdom. I want to pay you and me, the two countries only concluded a peace treaty last year and became a brotherly state, why did the king send troops to attack as soon as the New Year was over? Is this the work of a brother? Old monk Li asked about the crime.

Xu Wei was not annoyed, but said: "Where righteousness is, I have to go." ”

Of course, Old Monk Li knew what he meant, but he was still deliberately pretending to be stupid: "I don't know what the king meant?" ”

"Honorable envoy, since you have been ordered by Emperor Dajin, let me ask, which emperor is it? But the one who became a brother to my Song Dynasty Emperor Zhao Guan's family? Xu Wei said.

Li Lao Seng knew that this section could not be revealed, so he said: "The abolished emperor Dongluo King, during his reign, he was addicted to wine and killed ministers indiscriminately, so that the heavens were angry and people were resentful!" Now he is the grandson of Taizu, benevolence and righteousness are all over the world, and he is supported and recommended by the government and the opposition, and replacing him is a move that conforms to the will of heaven and the people! Besides, this is my Dajin internal affair, and outsiders are not allowed to ask about it! ”

Xuanfu Judge Zhang Jun said at this time: "If Song Jin had not concluded a peace treaty and had not become a brotherly state, we would not care about this matter. But since Song and Jin have become a state of brothers, you kill the king and usurp the throne, and heaven and earth will not tolerate it! Can Da Song Yan sit idly by? Isn't it to trap me in a state of unkindness and injustice? ”

Old Monk Li's face did not change, and he continued: "Although the truth is so, we can't ignore the facts! The deposed emperor is immoral and incompetent......"

Before he finished speaking, he heard another person rush to say: "Then I may ask Yan Liang how can he be?" ”

When the old monk Li heard him call the Golden Emperor by his name, he suddenly became angry and looked for prestige, only to see that the eyes of the person who spoke were like torches, his demeanor was mighty, and although his hair was gray, he was upright, so he pressed down his anger and said coldly: "My emperor's name, how dare you call it directly?" ”

"Killing the king and usurping the throne is really like Di Yi ......" Ma Kuo was about to scold.

"Hey, my court is a state of etiquette, how can I speak foul language?" Xu Wei stopped drinking in time.

King Xu Jun came forward, and the old monk Li only took it as a past, and continued to say to Xu Wei: "After the emperor is on the throne today, he has repeatedly said that he will continue to make peace with the Song Dynasty, stop the war, and re-order with the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty according to his age to determine the status of brothers." King Wanwang thought of the alliance between the two countries and the people of the two countries, and withdrew his troops as soon as possible to avoid fighting. ”

Xu Wei was silent for a while, and said: "Since I have avenged the Golden Emperor, how can I retreat lightly?" On the day of the division, the soldiers were angry, and now they have nothing to gain, so let them retreat, but I am afraid that I will not move. ”

Old monk Li knows that he is talking, who doesn't know that Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Hedong are you, Xu Jiu, who have the final say? But I'm fighting this haha, but I just want some benefits. At the moment, he didn't say anything, and said very sincerely: "Don't worry, as long as the king withdraws from the army, Dajin is the sincerity of the alliance, and we will bear the capital of this army." ”

Xu Wei didn't speak, just looked at him.

Old monk Li understood, and immediately said: "Dajin is willing to send the king, 600,000 yuan, 100 precious animal skins, 2,000 sheepskins, and 500 good horses, please accept the king." ”

"Haha!" Xu Wei suddenly laughed. bluffed Old Monk Li's face changed! "What is this for? Buy me? If I call on you with great righteousness, how can I be shaken by your small interests? ”

Old monk Li knew that he was not sincere, and said: "If the king thinks that this is a small profit, then the specific amount, we can discuss." I forgot to report to the king, and this time I came, and I brought a person to the king in a special order. ”

This aroused Xu Wei's interest and asked, "Who is it?" ”

"Does the king remember Gao Xiaogong?" Old monk Li asked with a smile.

The smile on Xu Wei's face gradually dissipated, how could he not remember this person? Picking up the ancestral grave of the Xu family, it was this bastard who made the old man die with hatred! I've been looking for him for more than a year or two! I only heard that he was demoted, and it seems that he moved to the north to live, and he can't help it for a while!

Zhang Jun and Ma Kuo also knew about this past, and secretly said in his heart that the Jurchens had really taken great pains to retreat from the army, and actually brought all the enemies of King Xu Jun.

"Our emperor learned that Gao Xiaogong had a deep hatred with the king, and for the sake of the king's filial piety, he sent this person here, and let the king fall." Old monk Li said.

Xu Wei was speechless for a while, and after a while, he said calmly: "Xu Wei is blessed by heaven, and he doesn't dare to forget justice because of personal enmity, people, you can take it back." ”

Old monk Li was stunned, the price code is not enough? Then let's discuss, don't say this shot and break up!

The hall was silent for a while, and Old Monk Li thought secretly, if you don't eat this soft purple gold tiger, I'm afraid you have to have something hard! As soon as he thought of this, he said to Xu Wei: "King Rongyu, this incident, my emperor really wants to solve it peacefully, and he will not use swords until he has to. But if the king insists on tearing his face, Daikin has nothing to do. The king should know about the person of Jerumawu, right? ”

Xu Wei nodded: "I remember, in the battle of Dunzhou that year, I was defeated by Ma Wu's men. ”

Seeing that he was so single, Old Monk Li didn't know what to say next, and after coughing dryly, he said: "Today, tens of thousands of iron horsemen in the five commanders of the horse are ready to meet the enemy, and tens of thousands of people in the Bohai Navy in Liaodong are also waiting for the front line at any time. For the sake of the alliance between the two countries, my emperor will not move, and I hope that the king will understand the painstaking efforts of my lord. ”

Xu Wei stood up suddenly, bypassed the desk, and went straight to the hall, standing at the door and looking out. At this time, Old Seng Li realized that Xu Wei was more than seven feet long, and he was very good! He didn't know what the other party's intentions were, and it was difficult to ask, so he could only wait.

After a long time, Xu Wei turned around and said, "Let's do this today." If you are bored, I will send this Wu to be a guide and take you around Xingyuan City. Leave. "After that, the person who actually left the next hall went straight out of the door!

Old monk Li sat on the spot, what kind of road is this?

This first time they met, Xu Wei probably figured out the bottom of the Jurchens, and the price given by Li Laoseng was only a starting price, and there was still a lot of room for growth. However, what Xu Wei cares about is really not money. Do I lack your hundreds of thousands of dollars? Fur? There is no land to be piled up by the tribes along the border every year! As for the war horses, I have my own horse farms in various places, not short of your five hundred, my brother cares about the land and the city, if you don't talk about this idea, who will talk to you?

In the next few days, Xu Wei did not show up, and asked Ma Kuo to talk to Old Seng Li on his behalf. The price was increased to 800,000 yuan, and there were 2,000 good horses, and Sichuan and Shaanxi still did not let go. Ma Zichong was originally engaged in diplomatic negotiations, and he reminded Li Lao Seng intentionally or unintentionally, which was almost meaningful.

Old monk Li went to ponder, what does this almost mean? Later, I thought about it thoroughly, and these people really thought about the land and the city! But the emperor had an edict, and the Jin side must not take the initiative to mention the return of the land of the Great Song Dynasty. After a few days of stalemate, Ma Kuo suddenly came to invite the envoy of the Jin State to visit the military camp.

Out of Xingyuan City, I came to a big camp, and on the wilderness, there was a dense crowd of people, I am afraid that there were more than 10,000 people. I saw that the troops were cleaned up, the armor was distinct, and the equipment was excellent, which really opened the eyes of the old monk. Moreover, Ma Kuo intended to show off his strength, and even ordered the artillery battalion to fire a few cannons at Li Laoseng.

The earth-shattering loud noise made Old Monk Li hide his face and exclaim! At the end, Ma Kuo also threw out a sentence, this army is about to go to the front line, let's take it. Our king has to avenge the Golden Emperor!

Old monk Li completely understands that Xu Wei is fighting with open fire this time, and he wants to engage in force blackmail! This is worse than a robber, it's okay for you to rob it, he's blackmailing! And he didn't mention the conditions, so he had to let you ask him!
