Chapter 788: Zhao Zhen's peak moment

Liang Yifu's face was bruised, how ugly it was, how ugly it was, it was hard to see and indescribable.

And Zhao Zhen on the dragon chair is a dragon with a great face, and he almost laughs out loud.

Looking at the group of people kneeling at his feet, especially the two old enemies of Xixia and Khitan, Uncle Zhao was about to fly.

Not all emperors of any dynasty can enjoy kneeling every day, surrounded by a group of minions, and a large group of women who have crossed over desperately squeezed into their arms.

In fact, before the Tang Dynasty, most people sat on the ground, even the emperor was no exception. Bow your head to the side, even if it is a sign of obedience. In the Tang Dynasty, there were seats, and between the emperor and the courtiers, they also sat and discussed.

mixed up with the Great Song Dynasty, the treatment of the courtiers has dropped a little, and they need to stand and reply. Of course, some people with higher status and older age, especially those who have entered the rank of Zaizhi, can still be on an equal footing with the emperor.

As for the etiquette of the face king, as long as you make a bow, you can bow again at most.

Bending the knees and kowtowing, that is a very grand occasion to worship the ancestors of heaven and earth, it will appear.

Under normal circumstances, when the new monarch ascends the throne, the big sacrificial ceremony requires kowtowing, and the usual dynasty only bows down. For example, after Wen Tianxiang was captured, he met Kublai Khan and said that the courtiers of the Great Song Dynasty did not need to kneel to the emperor, and kowtowing was a barbarian act.

The courtiers of the Great Song Dynasty did not kowtow, and the considerate officials of the Ministry of Rites, how could they make foreign envoys kowtow, so the original design only needed to be congratulated.

However, Xixia rushed to be the first place, Wang Ningan had an idea, if you want to run to the front, then fulfill you and let you kneel down for the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty!

Not only kneel once, but also kneel three times again, and perform the great gift of three kneels and nine bows!

Wang Ningan put forward the idea at that time, and Jia Changchao frowned.

This is really excessive, among these countries that came, they may not all be willing to surrender to the Great Song Dynasty, especially the Western Xia and Khitan, a thorn in the head, a former boss, how can he bow his head!

Wang Ning'an is full of confidence, although the etiquette of various countries is different, but there are common kneeling rituals, especially in the Western Regions, which are packaged by Wang Ningan, not to mention kneeling, even if it is ten thousand times more difficult, they have nothing to say.

Although Jiaozhi and other countries may not be willing to bow their heads, relying on the strength of the Great Song Dynasty, under coercion and temptation, they are not afraid that they will not bend their knees.

The rest of Tianzhu, Dashi and other countries, they are not the right envoys, they are mostly a group of merchants, even if they are officials and nobles, their status is not high, and they are easy to settle.

After calculating it, there are only Liao and Western Xia left.

Wang Ningan thought about it, it was impossible for Xixia to bow his head, and it was useless to say it.

It's the Liao Kingdom, these days, their warriors have participated in a lot of competitions, and the rankings are good, although Yelu Huage and a few people are suspicious of the Great Song Dynasty, but the bonus prizes are placed there, and the stone statues are also erected.

They are also not easy to speak out, coupled with economic sanctions, they are in urgent need of tea, and they can buy it.

As long as the Khitan kneels, there will be only one Western Xia left, do they dare not kneel?

Wang Ningan said the plan, and immediately got Jia Changchao's approval, Zhao Shu was still a little puzzled, "Master, if the envoy of Western Xia doesn't kneel, what should I do?" ”

"Hahaha, Your Highness, there are only one of them left, and they can still turn the sky upside down! At that time, His Royal Highness only needs to give an order, let the guard master expel the envoy of the Western Xia, and declare the Western Xia an enemy country, and call on all countries to crusade together. ”

Zhao Shu's eyes lit up and gave his master a thumbs up!

This matter was handed over to Lu Zhi to do, this Lord Lu was not good enough just now, and he seemed a little weak, in order to save face, he ran to the Khitan pavilion overnight.

He also played a trick, in the face of the Khitan envoy, Lu Zhi only said to kneel once, and did not mention the matter of kneeling three times...... In this way, as long as 50,000 quintals of tea, the Khitan will be taken, saving half of the price for the imperial court!

……

I have to say that under the influence of Wang Ning'an, there are really not many good people in the Great Song Dynasty.

When he entered the palace to congratulate, Zeng Gong shouted the kneeling word, represented by the envoys of Khotan and the Western Regions, and knelt down instantly.

The others hesitated a little and knelt down.

Yelu Huage didn't hold on.

As a result, there was only one Liang Yifu left, and he swore that he would never want to kneel, and would rather kill him than kneel!

But he was the only one left, alone, standing in the middle of the Daqing Palace, surrounded by guards, his eyes were like electricity, and he was mighty, Zhao Zhen sat on the dragon chair, and his bearing was solemn.

Liang Yifu's knees were weak, he felt that there was a Mount Tai, pressed on his back, and had to kneel down!

Speaking of which, in this world, strength is still important.

Western Xia lost Hengshan and Hexi Corridor one after another, and its national strength declined, and its military strength was only half of what it was in its heyday.

Although they tried their best to win over the Khitan, they hoped to join forces with Yelu Hongji to jointly fight against the Great Song Dynasty. But the Tangut people are not stupid, they have no wishful thinking, in case the Khitan and the Great Song join forces and carve them up together, it is not impossible.

After all, the two families may not be able to get benefits from dealing with the Great Song Dynasty, but if they divide the Western Xia, there will be at least a large piece of fat to eat. This is a choice between long-term and short-term interests.

For steppe tribes, few think long-term.

Especially when Yelu Huage knelt down, Liang Yifu's fear became even stronger, could it be that the nightmare came true! He chose to surrender...... Kneel down is like that...... With the first time, the rest will be easier.

knelt three times in a row, and Liang Yifu's temper was gone, and he was left with an iron-blue old face, and the fingers tucked in his sleeves kept trembling, showing the fear and shame in his heart.

Finally, the lengthy etiquette ended, not long, but for some, it was like a century.

At this time, Zhao Zhen showed a satisfied smile.

He actually got up from the dragon chair...... This is a part that was not there before, Zhao Shu hurriedly came over to help, but Zhao Zhen waved his hand and let his son only follow behind.

Zhao Zhen walked down the Danqi step by step, standing in front of the envoys of various countries, he took a deep breath, at this moment, it seemed that the whole world was kneeling at his feet!

"My Great Song Dynasty since Emperor Taizu, the foundation of the business, passed to me, after the four emperors, a hundred years of national Zuo, Wufu and the people are abundant, the country is safe and the people are Tai, the saint is towering, the blessing of heaven is blessed, the Tang Dynasty is far away, and the Yao Shun is chased!" Zhao Zhen's voice was loud and echoed in the hall.

Zhao Shu listened, and almost laughed out loud, Dad, you have been reserved and humble all your life, and this moment is finally broken, you dare to say anything, your son is blushing!

Of course, Zhao Shu only dared to think about it for a while, so he immediately straightened up and listened to what his father said.

"I have been in the world for forty years, making great efforts, changing the law and innovating, and the world has been rejuvenated. Our grace is added to the four seas, and virtue is extended to the nations. Qing and others came from afar, tirelessly worked hard, and I could exempt myself from paying taxes, purchase commercial goods at will, and transport the products of my Great Song Dynasty back to my country, and the goods and everyone else would celebrate and bathe in kindness. ”

Good guy, Uncle Zhao is not really confused.

Zhao Shu was afraid that his father would reward him with money, in that case, how much would it cost to spend so many countries?

You must know that the budget for this grand ceremony is very tight, Buddha Yin, Wang Ning'an, Zhao Zongjing, each offered 1 million guan, in addition to the tickets for the game, more than 2 million guan, as for the household and the palace, 2 million guan was also allocated, and now there is not much left.

If you reward the messenger again, I am afraid that you will lose money.

But fortunately, it's just tax-free, anyway, the goods bought are all from the Great Song Dynasty, and it can prosper the market, which is still acceptable.

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, the big bear of the Bohai Kingdom, Zhao Li of the Khotanese Kingdom, Dong Yu of the Qingtang Dynasty, and other countries of the Western Regions knelt down again to thank the Son of Heaven for his generous gifts.

Liang Yifu and Yelu Huage's faces were green, but they had no choice but to kneel.

Zhao Zhen is very pleased, standing on top of all countries and enjoying infinite glory, this taste is really intoxicating!

Even if it's just for a moment, it's enough!

Zhao Zhen pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "Let's wait for a flat body, give a banquet in the palace tonight, and celebrate the whole world." ”

After finishing speaking, Zhao Zhen turned around, and Zhao Shu noticed that his father's sideburns were a little sweaty.

Obviously, these angry words had overdrawn the emperor's energy, Zhao Shu hurriedly followed, helped his father and left the Daqing Palace.

After arriving at the side hall, Zhao Zhen sat down, his back was already soaked, the palace people hurriedly helped change his clothes, took off the heavy crown, Zhao Zhen was loose, leaning on the soft blanket, and couldn't stop smiling on his face.

In addition to being happy, it is just happy!

There are not many kings of the past who can be widely praised by people.

This time, the longevity ceremony, which was so successful, suddenly pushed Zhao Zhen to the peak of history.

The princes of Qi Huan and Jiuhe, with the alliance of Kwai Hill being the most prosperous!

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sealed Mount Tai.

Tang Taizong was revered as the Heavenly Khan.

It's their pinnacle!

The Great Song Emperor was relatively sad, if Taizu and Taizong could restore Yanyun and defeat the Khitan, they might be able to enjoy the feeling of being at the top, but it was a pity that they failed.

As for Zhenzong, he ran to Mount Tai to seal Zen, not only did not climb to the peak, but destroyed the sacredness of Mount Tai and became a laughing stock for the ages.

Zhao Zhen was luckier than them, first took back Youzhou, and then hit the Western Xia and opened up the Western Regions.

Long Birthday Ceremony, all nations come to court!

Zhao Zhen was suddenly pushed to the pinnacle of the emperor, which can be compared with the holy lords of the Ming Dynasty in the past dynasties, Uncle Zhao really felt that he had died without regrets at this moment.

Zhao Shu served his father, drank two sips of ginseng soup, and recovered his spirits.

"Emperor, my father has only one regret left now."

Zhao Shu's hand shook, and his face turned red.

He knew what his father was referring to, that is, getting married and getting married!

Starting a family, once married, he will become an adult from a child, if he successfully gives birth to a dragon seed, he is a father, he is a righteous emperor, and no one dares to question the constraints.

When that time really came, Zhao Zhen was relieved.

"Emperor, do you have a candidate in mind?"

Zhao Shu's face turned even redder, and he nodded.

"There is, I'm just afraid of ......"

"Afraid of what? Is there anyone who doesn't want to be a mother in the world? Zhao Zhen said with a chuckle.

Zhao Shu said distressedly: "The child can't say it well, anyway, the temper of the Wang family is quite strange." ”
