Outside the gate of the palace, the Jin army's general Yelu Ma Wu sorted out his clothes and waited for the attendants to come out and summon him. To this day, the veterans who fought with Jin Taizu Jin Taizong died, the old man, Ma Wu was just a general under Wanyan Zonghan in the past, but now he is already an old qualification, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a veteran in the army.

Although his sideburns were gray, his majesty was still there, and after a while, the attendants came out to announce the summons, and he strode in with his head held high. As soon as he stepped into the palace door, he was stunned, he didn't expect that there were so many important ministers gathered in this hall. With a heartbeat, he walked in quickly, and when he arrived in the hall, he bowed and bowed: "Minister, Yelu Ma Wu, knock to see His Majesty the Great Emperor!" ”

Wan Yan Liang hurriedly beckoned in the hall: "Qing doesn't have to be polite, flat down, give a seat!" ”

Jerumawu was very self-aware at the end, waiting for the emperor to ask. Looking at the emperor's attitude, it doesn't seem to have any malice? Just thinking about it, he listened to Yan Liang and said: "Yelu Xianqing, I know that you have been on the battlefield for many years, fought against Xu Wei several times, and defeated the Purple Gold Tiger in the battle of Yanzhou. In my Dajin Army, you are one of the people who can make the Purple Gold Tiger jealous. ”

Hearing the emperor raise it like this, Ma Wu behaved very humbly, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty should not praise you, the minister and Xu Wei have fought many times, but they have won and lost each other." ”

"Hmm." Wan Yanliang seemed to be satisfied with his low-key. "In Qing's opinion, who is Xu Wei?"

To evaluate Xu Wei, Ma Wu is a little pressured. From the bottom of his heart, he admires Xu Wei, Zijin Tiger is good at using soldiers, and his city defense, formation, orders, and advance and retreat are very orderly, but every time he is in battle, he likes to win by surprise strategically, and it is difficult to find rules, so he deserves the title of a famous general. However, this heartfelt word can't be confessed to the emperor, isn't that to grow the morale of others and destroy his own prestige? He didn't want to say that Xu Wei was too unbearable, so he thought about it and said, "Xu Wei can be regarded as capable of conquest and habitual warfare, and he has some means. ”

After hearing this, Yan Liang couldn't wait to shake out the matter: "I just received the report, Xu Wei did his best to be the elite of the Western Army, and the army pressed the border under the banner of avenging the abolished emperor. The side has hit the city of Taiyuan, and the west has approached Datong. ”

Ma Wu's eyelids jumped, and he knew that something was wrong! The Purple Gold Tiger is also here, so it's time, right? At present, the government and the opposition of the Dajin Kingdom are uneasy, and the people's hearts are fluctuating, and he raises troops to attack under this banner, which is very disadvantageous to me! Although Ma Wu did not intend to finish the muddy waters of Yan Liang, he also had a good understanding of the situation, and knew that if the Song army attacked in a big way at this time, then the Dajin Kingdom would be in danger!

After thinking for a while, he suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, is there any movement in the south?" ”

"There doesn't seem to be any movement in the south, only Xu Wei raised troops to come." Wan Yan Bingde interjected from the side.

Ma Wu lowered his head and pondered, everyone in the hall stared at him, and no one went to say anything about the battle, after a while, Ma Wu breathed a sigh of relief. His appearance made everyone confused, and Tang Kuo asked when he saw this: "Is there a countermeasure?" ”

Ma Wuyi bowed his head: "Your Majesty, in the opinion of the ministers, Xu Wei is here, I'm afraid it's a bluff." ”

"Bluffing? Where does this begin? Wan Yanliang asked anxiously.

"If Song Jun wants to take advantage of it...... If you invade the north in a big way, then it will definitely be carefully arranged, and it will never be so fast. Judging from the time, the Purple Gold Tiger was a temporary idea, and he didn't think it would be arranged very carefully, and he didn't necessarily want to take this opportunity to attack the city and grab the land, but just take advantage of the fire to rob. The so-called banner is just covering people's eyes and ears and messing with me. Ma Wu analyzed.

If someone else said this, the monarchs and ministers of the Jin Kingdom might not believe it, but the weight that came out of Ma Wu's mouth was different. From Yan Liang to several ministers, they all felt that the big stone in their hearts had fallen to the ground, and they were a lot more relaxed. Wan Yanliang had a smile on his face: "According to what you say, Xu Wei is not afraid of two ways to attack?" ”

"Not really." Ma Wu's words hung everyone's hearts again.

"How?" Tang Kuobi was a little impatient.

"Xu Wei is here to rob, if there is no benefit, he will never give up. Presumably, Your Majesty and all of you know that Zijin Tiger has been operating in Sichuan and Shaanxi for many years, and there are hundreds of thousands of people under his command, and there is a country of abundance as a guarantee. What's more, Xu Wei has absolute control over Sichuan, Shaanxi, and the Western Army, which is incomparable to the generals of the Southern Song Army. Although the minister didn't think that he really wanted to go to war this time, if he was in a hurry, no one knew what would happen later. "Ma Wudao.

The palace was silent for a while, everyone pondered his words, and finally came to the same conclusion, Xu Wei came this time to fish in troubled waters, if he didn't taste some sweetness, he probably wouldn't retreat.

"Do you have any suggestions?" Wan Yanliang asked.

"The minister's suggestion is......" Ma Wu's words came to his lips and swallowed back, and changed his words, "Everything is subject to Your Majesty's holy judgment." ”

"Well, when is this? If you have something to say, it doesn't hurt to say it, I trust you. Wan Yan Liang said in his heart.

Hearing this, Ma Wucai said: "The minister suggested, if you can, you won't fight, now the situation is complicated, and it is really not appropriate to start a war in vain." ”

Everyone understood this, and Wan Yan said: "You mean to say that you will give Xu Wei some sweetness and let him withdraw from the army?" ”

Ma Wu nodded and said no more. Wan Yanliang exhaled deeply, frowning and thinking. In the past, the Jin army fought with the Song army, and often demanded gold silk children and land and cities. I'm afraid that the purple tiger is not interested in gold and silver beauty, so what he wants is the land city? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed, because he seemed to suddenly have insight into Xu Jiu's intentions. Now and now, which piece of land is worth coveting for the Purple Gold Tiger? Taiyuan!

But if Taiyuan Mansion is returned, it means that the entire Hedong will be restored to the Song army. The Jin army has been fighting for more than 20 years, and in the end, it will have Hebei! But now ......

"Your Majesty, the minister agrees with Yelu Ma Wu's opinion, this battle, if you can't fight, you won't fight. Xu Wei wants benefits, Dajin gives it to him, there is a way to be small, and if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, just swallow this breath, and he will make plans again in the future. Tang Kuo argued.

"Then do you know what Xu Wei wants? Just give it all to him? Wan Yan Bingde asked.

"What more could he want? It's nothing more than gold and silk goods, land and cities, otherwise, give him a few horses, I'm afraid that the purple and gold tigers will jump happily. Tang Kuo argued.

"What if he wants Taiyuan?" Wanyan Bingde asked again.

"Give!" Tang Kuo argued very simply.

"You're generous! You must know that every inch of this piece of land was fought bloodily by the Dajin soldiers, how can it be given away in vain? Wanyan Bingde was very full of his words.

"Shandong has sent it all, and you are reluctant to have a Taiyuan? As long as Xu Wei passes this level, when His Majesty's major events are established, are you afraid that there will be no chance to take revenge? If you can't pass this level, then it's a big trouble! Tang Kuo didn't leave much room for this old friend.

His words are all said in Wan Yanliang's heart, that's right, as long as I pass this level, as long as I give me time, settle down in Dajin Kingdom, I'm not afraid that there will be no chance of revenge! Where there is life, there is hope! The eldest husband can bend and stretch, didn't Gou Jian still endure humiliation and dirt back then?

"Let's go, and turn back to the Purple Golden Tiger! Who's going to talk to him? "Wan Yan Liang is also decisive, once he makes up his mind, he is really resolute.

When the emperor asked, there was silence. In the past, when the Taizong Dynasty said that they were going to send an envoy to the south, the ministers rushed to go. Because at that time, the Jin army was invincible, swept the world, and sent an extremely honorable deed to the Southern Dynasty. As long as he is an envoy of the Dajin Kingdom, he will be full of majesty in front of the Zhao official family! is to scold Xiao Zhao twice, and he still has to face it with a smile!

But this time I went to see Zijin Tiger, to put it bluntly, it was to say good things to people with a smile and ask someone to withdraw from the army, if Zijin Tiger scolded you twice, you still had to face it with a smile. Such a humiliating deed, who wants to go and who goes, anyway, I don't know.

"You don't want to go? Well, I'll go by myself! Wan Yan Liang was angry.

That old monk Li is Shang Shucheng, and when Yan Liang was the prime minister, he was a close confidant. At this time, seeing that the emperor was angry, he hardened his head: "Your Majesty, let the ministers go to meet this famous tiger handsome." ”

Wan Yan Liang was relieved, in the end, it was my old team, not comparable to others. At the moment, he said: "Good! You go to see Xu Wei, Hugh next to him said, just ask him, what do you want! ”

"Yes. However, Your Majesty, the minister believes that it is advisable for our side to draw up a condition first, and we must not let the Purple Gold Tiger ask for a price all over the sky and make a big mouth. Old monk Li suggested.

This remark aroused everyone's seconding, and Wan Yan said: "That's right, you can't let Xu Wei speak first." ”

"Then tell me, what are the conditions?" Wan Yanliang asked.

Wanyan Bingde thought for a while: "A few gold and silver, a few furs." ”

Tang Kuo immediately said: "Otherwise, give him a few hundred good horses, which will definitely make Zijin Tiger's heart move." ”

"But there is one thing, the land city, we must not speak first, and we must not take this step until we have to." Wan Yan Yan of the Jurchen name Wu Belt reminded.

At this time, Yelu Ma Wu, who had not spoken, suddenly said: "Your Majesty, there is another thing that can impress the Purple Golden Tiger." ”

"Oh? What is it? Wan Yanliang hurriedly asked.

"Your Majesty may not know that Xu Wei's father, Xu Zhang, is also an old general in the Southern Army. I heard that he had retired in his early years, and it was only because of the Song and Jin wars that he returned to the mountains to listen to it. Back then, I fought a few battles with our Western Route Army, and I had some means. Later, when the old handsome man moved to Hebei despite his illness, he learned that his ancestral grave had been dug up! Xu Zhang suffered from this difficulty, couldn't afford to fall ill, and finally left. "Ma Wudao.

Hearing him mention this allusion, no one in the palace knew, and Wan Yanliang, who had read poetry and books, sighed after listening to it: "The ancestral grave was dug up, and I think that the children of the Xu family must be in pain and vow to avenge this." No wonder Xu Wei is so ...... Hey, who was digging the ancestral grave of the Xu family back then? ”

"This past, if it weren't for Xu Wei's raising troops this time, the ministers would have forgotten it. Back then, I Dajin supported Gao Shiyou to be the emperor, established Korea, and dug up the ancestral grave of the Xu family, it was Gao Shiyou's younger brother, Gao Xiaogong, who was the privy envoy of Han at the time. "Jeruma five ways.

After hearing this, Yan Liang did not hesitate, and immediately said: "Where is Gao Xiaogong now?" Summoned, send it to Xu Wei! His father died because of this, and I am now giving him a favor! Fulfill his filial piety! ”

Wanyan Bingde's face was not good-looking, and he questioned: "I'm afraid this will lose my Dajin Guowei, right?" Gao Shiyou is dead, Gao Xiaogong has been degraded several times, and now he has been sent to live in the north. If he is handed over to Xu Wei, he will definitely die! ”

In fact, in Wan Yanliang's heart, the most despised person is a "second minister" like Gao Shiyou Gao Xiaogong. Like Ma Wu, although he is also a Khitan, he has the ability to make great contributions to Dajin Country, so he naturally looks at it differently. But something like the Gao brothers is completely a foodie, and it's useless!

"Dajin has raised them for so many years, and now that the country is in trouble, Gao Xiaogong should also donate his life to the country, and see death as if he were going home, right?"

The emperor has said so, who can have any more objections? At the moment, the conditions were agreed, and the old monk Li was sent as an envoy to see Xu Wei. After the ministers dispersed, Dutang Kuo did not leave, Wan Yanliang knew that this guy had a city, so he asked, "Is there anything else to do?" ”

Tang Kuobi smiled gloomily, as if he was quite complacent, Wan Yanliang frowned slightly when he saw this, what did he think?

"Your Majesty, the minister has a plan, even if he can't deal with the Purple Golden Tiger, he will also bury a curse! that one day he will not be at peace! Tang Kuobi said mysteriously.

"Oh, go on." Wan Yanliang became interested.

"Your Majesty is very knowledgeable, and you must know the allusion that when the Southern Dynasty was founded, Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty released his military power with a glass of wine?" Tang Kuo argued.

Who doesn't know this? Wan Yanliang said with a smile: "Song Taizu started in the army and relied on the support of the army to seize the country, so he is naturally the most afraid of the generals with heavy troops. However, thanks to the interest of his old brothers, he drank a glass of wine and immediately resigned the next day. If I run into a few uninteresting people, I would like to know if this Emperor Taizu will be a killer. ”

"Yes, since the founding of the country, the Southern Dynasty has redoubled its guard against those who hold military power. In the past twenty years, there has been no choice, and you have to borrow crude warriors to serve the battlefield, so people like Xu Wei have risen. But the minister thought that the centuries-old tradition was not so easy to change, and although the Zhao official family of the Southern Dynasty reused Xu Wei and his ilk, they may not be unguarded against them in their hearts. Now, my Dajin has no intention of using force against Song for the time being, but I am afraid that the ministers of the Southern Dynasty will be even more jealous of Xu Wei and others than before. ”

"This time, Xu Wei did not pass through Hangzhou and moved troops without authorization, although it was within the scope of his authority, but it must also be unpleasant. This time, His Majesty sent someone to negotiate peace with him, no matter what the conditions were, as long as the negotiation was completed, Xu Wei would be in trouble. Tang Kuo argued.

Wan Yan Liang didn't speak for a while, and after a while, he high-fived and said, "Wonderful! As long as the negotiation is completed, even if Xu Wei recovers Taiyuan for the Southern Dynasty, and in Hangzhou's view, he is all privately taught and received by my Dajin, what is the nature of this? No matter how cheap you are, how can you negotiate peace with other countries on behalf of the imperial court? This is simply, it is simply to replace the Zhao official family! This is trying to be the emperor! Isn't this death? ”

"Your Majesty is wise, exactly! Xu Wei committed this taboo, no matter how great his credit and strength were, I was afraid that Hangzhou would have to dig out his heart to get rid of him. Even if it doesn't work right now, sooner or later he'll have to clean him up. Get rid of a Xu Wei, so what if you give up Taiyuan? Tang Kuo said with a smile.

"That's it! If you can get rid of Xu Wei, don't say a Taiyuan, that is, let Hebei out, I am willing! In the end, it's a martial artist, even if he is brave and fierce, there is still one less tendon in his head. Thinking that his prestige is violent in the north and south, he will look at the four directions? Do you believe it or not, Xu Wei is afraid that he is still complacent at the moment, but he doesn't know that a catastrophe is coming? Good! Good! Wan Yanliang swept away the gloom in his heart, but it seemed to be a bad breath!

Tang Kuo frequently said yes, and said: "Therefore, to negotiate peace with Xu Wei, there is no need to worry about it, and it is the right way to promote this matter as soon as possible." After the negotiation is completed, Dajin can take advantage of the next time he sends a delegation to the south to celebrate the festival, shake this matter out, not afraid that he Xu Wei will be arrogant, sooner or later he will have good fruits to eat! ”

The next day, the envoys of the Jin State headed by Shangshu Zuocheng Li Laosheng set off from Yanjing, and the troops were divided into two routes, Li Laosheng himself went south to Taiyuan, and the other route led by the deputy envoy to the west, to Datong. They all first visited the front-line commanders of the Song army, and said that they were ordered by the emperor of the Jin State to go to Xingyuan Mansion to meet Xu Wei, the king of Wuwei County, and asked the commanders of the Song army to suspend the use of troops. Of course, Xu Hong and Yang Yan knew what these envoys of the Jin Kingdom were going to do, and they didn't stop them, and let them pass.

This time, Wan Yan Liang and Tang Kuo really guessed, Xu Wei really didn't know that the Jurchens had set up such a set for him. After the Chinese New Year, because this year was the year of the imperial examination, as the supreme administrator of Sichuan and Shaanxi, he also went to various academies to visit the students, encouraging them to prepare hard in order to get the title of the gold list. News came from Pegasus on the front line, saying that the gold lord Wan Yanliang had sent an envoy to Xingyuan to ask for a meeting, probably because he wanted to make peace, Xu Wei sneered a few times, ready to "welcome" the golden envoy.

When Li Laosheng and his entourage arrived in Xingyuan, it was February 14. Along the way, I saw that all industries in Shaanxi had recovered, and Guanzhong was thriving, and I was also surprised by Xu Wei's methods. After they entered the city, they were invited into the pavilion to stay, but they were not received by King Xujun.

It turned out that at 9 o'clock in the first month of February, the father of Zhang Qing, the military counselor and head of the Sichuan-Shaanxi Xuanfu Disposal Division, died. Zhang Qing naturally immediately put down all the affairs at hand and handled his father's afterlife. As a prefect and Yu Wei as a brother, Xu Wei has an unshirkable responsibility and is obligated to help.

Yang Yan is now on the front line, Ma Tai died on the battlefield that year, and the four brothers of Xujiazhuang are already rare to gather. The pain of losing his father made Zhang Qing very sad, but fortunately, Xu Wei has been comforting him, and helped Zhang Luo with the funeral, which happened to be the 14th day of the funeral. Old monk Li thought that Xu Wei was deliberately putting on a shelf.

But it's nothing, when he came, Yan Liang explained again and again, saw Xu Wei, tried to be as humble as possible, and didn't stick to some small things and etiquette. To put it in layman's terms, just endure it, if he hits you on the left cheek, you stretch the right cheek over and let him pump it, and then ask him after smoking, is it cool?

When Xu Wei went to Zhang's father's funeral and went to the road sacrifice in person, he learned that the envoy of the Jin State had entered Xingyuan City, and ordered him to go down and be hospitable. As for when I'll see them, I'm not busy for the time being. It's not that Zijin Tiger deliberately wanted to dry Li Laoseng and his party for a while, but ......
