ChineseHearing the Liao envoy's request to see him, Huizong Zhao Ji's face immediately became solemn, and even the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were also a little stunned and at a loss in their expressions.

To be precise, the Northern Song Dynasty in history vs. Liao, and the Southern Song Dynasty vs. Jin, this kind of emotion is best described by the words "both hatred and fear".

In the first year of Zhenghe, Tong Guan went to the Liao State as Zheng Yunzhong's deputy, and he was a respected person in the Great Song Dynasty like Tong Guan, and he was also angry and ridiculed by the Liao people when he arrived in the Liao State, which shows how arrogant the Liao monarchs and ministers were, and they had a great sense of superiority over the Great Song Dynasty.

As far as the Great Song Dynasty is concerned, the plan of Lianjin to destroy Liao is no less than that of Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms, but the Great Song Dynasty is too straw at this time.

In the second year after Yelu Deguang entered the Great Liang, he abolished the Jin Emperor, named him a negative righteous candidate, and placed him in Huanglong Mansion (now Nong'an, Jilin); Scrap Tokyo, lower the beam to Yangzhou. Ren Feng Dao is the Taifu and a hundred officials. The feudal towns surrendered one after another.

At this time, although the Khitan occupied Kaifeng and the Later Jin Dynasty perished, the Central Plains and Jiangnan at that time were in a state of disintegration after the fall of the Tang Dynasty and the Ten Kingdoms. Liu Zhiyuan, who led the troops to drive away Yelu Deguang, is Liu Zhiyuan, the ancestor of the Later Han Dynasty of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, a native of Taiyuan, Hedong, and a member of the Shatuo tribe. After the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty was called the emperor and renamed Liu Wei.

Regarding the sudden visit of the Liao envoys, Huizong Zhao Ji felt a little helpless, but he couldn't refuse it, so he had to order: "Pass it in!" ”

To tell the truth, although the clothes of the Dangxiang people and the Khitan people are not very different, the habits of the nomadic people with the same hair are the same. Looking at this Khitan envoy, Lotte still felt a little funny in his heart, after all, the appearance of this hair would trigger the nerves of wanting to laugh in anyone's eyes.

Since the rise of Confucianism, the concept of "body hair and skin, parents who do not dare to destroy" began to be widely popular in the society at that time, so the Han nationality both men and women grow hair, and regard hair as an insult to the person, resulting in a punishment that is to shave off the hair, called "Hair Punishment", which is recorded in the "Historical Records" and "Han".

"Don't laugh!" Seeing that Lotte shrugged his body because he was holding back his smile, Chen Yuen, who was standing behind Lotte, reminded in a low voice.

Li Gang is right, what is surprising in history is that the most unique thing about the Khitan people's hair is that women are the same.

Having spent time on the Northwest Frontier, Lotte naturally knows the origin of the nomadic left-hand habits, and the left cover of the placket can affect the range of motion of the right arm that draws the bow and shoot arrows less, and can protect the right arm more from injury, and it is convenient for the left hand to take things from the bosom, and can free up the right hand to use the weapon.

It means that the Han people use the right hand because it is convenient to untie it, while the left side means "no reinterpretation", which means that this is a longevity dress that can only be worn by the deceased of the Han people, and it means that it cannot be solved again. Imagine who would like to be left according to the Han tradition, wearing such unfortunate clothes.

"Excuse me!" Huizong Zhao Ji was expressionless.

Then he said: "I, the Emperor of the Great Liao, sent me to ask His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty why he attacked the Xia State this time and destroyed the peace covenant made between the Song and Western Xia a few years ago. ”

Although the Liao envoy was rude, no one in the Great Song Dynasty dared to speak, after all, the Song officials were afraid of the Liao people from their hearts, not for a year or two, but for more than a hundred years. Just like Chinese football in later generations, the "Koreanophobia" and "Japanphobia" don't know when they will be cured.

The Khitan envoy said: "I, the Great Liao Emperor, am afraid that the Great Song Dynasty and the Xia Kingdom will fight again, so that the lives of the people of the two countries will be miserable, and I intend to mediate between them, I don't know what the Great Song Emperor wants?" ”

The Khitan envoy replied with a smile: "I heard that the Great Song Dynasty and the Xia State won a complete victory in this war, and captured more than 20,000 Xia soldiers and horses, what my emperor means is that His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty can release these prisoners of war back to the Xia Realm, and the Xia State promises to never commit the Song Border again, and the Great Song Dynasty will restore the Xia State New Year coin, and the two countries will be reconciled forever!" ”

Not only Huizong Zhao Ji was angry when he heard this, but also the civil and military expressions of the Manchu Dynasty were full of anger.

The envoy looked slightly shocked, and then smiled: "How dare the villain be such a master, this is what my Majesty the Great Liao Emperor wants to discuss with Your Majesty the Great Song Emperor!" ”

It is precisely because of the vacancy in the position of prime minister that Huizong Zhao Ji will fall into a passive situation, but there are people among the hundred officials who want to come forward, and they do not have this power.

Hearing this, Huizong Zhao Ji and all the ministers in the hall looked at him, and immediately recognized the person who spoke, and the person who spoke was none other than the Lotte who had just been promoted to the middle house.

This Liao envoy Ye Luguang has lived in the Great Song Dynasty for a long time, and naturally knows the etiquette rules of the Great Song Dynasty.

Because the emperor sits in the north and faces south, his left is the east, the right is the west, the east belongs to the wood master, the west belongs to the gold lord to die, and the military general leads the army to kill the enemy, and naturally wants to die, so he stands on the right. Wenchen is mainly to govern the affairs of the people, that is, to reproduce, of course, to stand on the left.

Ignoring Na Yeluguang, Lotte bowed to Huizong and said: "Please forgive your majesty for the reckless crime of the minister, the minister has something to ask this Liao envoy!" ”

Lotte saluted again, looked at Yeluguang and said with a smile: "Xia is my subject country of the Great Song Dynasty, Song Zhengxia is like a son making a mistake, and his father punishes him, what is the fault?" My Da Song beats the child at home, what are you doing in Da Liao? Your Majesty the Great Liao Emperor is too careless! ”
