Chapter 042: Eight Mountain People

In the Lin'an Palace, Xiaozong Zhao You looked at the newspapers on the table, as if he was very annoyed.

Regarding the invitation of the Jin Kingdom to the envoys of Liao and Xia to come to Song to gather together, Zhao You had long felt that it was not simple, but he did not expect that this would be the result

He had already known about the edict sent by the Jin State, and was very sensitive to the cultural exchanges mentioned in the edict. But Zhao You is not qualified, and there is no reason to refuse

After the failure of the Northern Expedition of Longxing, although the two countries entered a long period of peaceful coexistence, as a defeated country, the Song Dynasty was a vassal to the Jin State and called it an uncle and nephew, which meant that the younger generation was not qualified to oppose the decision of the elders.

And issuing an edict to an emperor is equivalent to Jin Guo is the upper country, and Jin Shizong Wanyan Yong is Zhao You's uncle (but it is called a national letter in the history books, which can be regarded as gold on the face)

Since the Jin State occupied the Song land north of the Yangtze River, it claimed to be the orthodoxy of the Central Plains culture for half a century, and the Song land south of the Yangtze River was nothing more than the southern barbarian land in the Jin population.

It has always been debated as to which is right and which is wrong, but it is an indisputable fact that the literati of the Southern Song Dynasty have always looked down on the barbarians of the Jin State.

This time, Jin Guo took the initiative to send an embassy to come to cultural exchanges, and as the host of the Central Plains culture, Xiaozong Zhao had no reason to refuse.

However, what Jin said is not unreasonable, the Song land north of the Yangtze River belongs to the Jin State, it can be said that the original hinterland of the Central Plains has been mostly occupied by the Jin State, and it is not an exaggeration to call it the Southern Barbarian.

Although the land south of the Yangtze River is still a cultural inheritance that has not been broken, but in the ethnic integration of the north, the Jin country has gradually reached the peak of culture.

How could Xiaozong Zhao You not know what was at stake, and now that the Jin Kingdom is gathering in the capital with such fanfare, it must be that it is not good.

I thought that even if the Jinguo delegation wanted to conduct a cultural exchange competition this time, it would wait for Lin'an to deal with it. But he didn't expect that the Jin State Mission did not go directly to Lin'an, but directly attacked the Eight Great Academies of the Great Song Dynasty.

Such unruly and unreasonable behavior made Zhao You very annoyed, but what made him even more angry was that the eight major academies were wiped out and no one won

This is a naked humiliation, even the proud grandmasters of the eight major academies have been completely defeated by the enemy, and he, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, can be said to have lost face.

In the empty imperial study, Zhao You sat beside the bookcase with a gloomy face, and sat quietly without saying a word.

At this time, Liang Ke walked in in a broken step, bowed down and held up the song with both hands and said: "Your Majesty, the envoy with the crown prince of the Jin Kingdom has arrived in the capital."

Zhao You glanced at the concerto, and did not rush to pick it up, but pondered for a moment before taking the recital and reading it under the light.

"Arrogant, arrogant, arrogant and arrogant"

After Zhao You finished reading the recital, he angrily pressed the recital heavily on the table.

"I don't believe it, I have tens of millions of scribes in the Great Song Dynasty, and there are no capable people to deal with the Eight Great Shanren of the Jin Kingdom to discuss with the three pavilions and three pavilions, and this matter will be included in the important court meeting of tomorrow."

"Yes"

Five days later, that is, on the twentieth day of the lunar month, the Great Song Emperor Zhao You led hundreds of civil and military officials to meet with the Three Kingdoms delegation in the Daqing Hall of the Imperial City of Lin'an, Kyoto. Among them, there is no full-time official below the fifth rank who does not need to go to court.

Today's grand ceremony of this scale has not been held for many years. Generally, it is held at the grand moment when the new emperor ascends the throne, the emperor's wedding, the canonization of the crown prince, and foreign and domestic attachments.

The last time a grand ceremony was held was when Zhao You ascended the throne six years ago, and today in order to welcome the missions of the Three Kingdoms, this grand court meeting was held again.

Beginning today, the officials of Kyoto and the local officials of Kyoto, dressed in costumes of seven grades or more, together with the tributary envoys, were already waiting outside the palace gate, and the following good procession under the command of the Ming Zanguan was waiting to be summoned.

About half an hour later, the palace door slowly opened, and the officials and envoys entered the palace through the two doors under the guidance of the praise officer. The civil officials are in the east and the military attaches are in the west, and the missions of the three kingdoms are followed by the Jin State.

At this moment, everyone knew that the envoy of the Jin State who sent the Song Dynasty this time was the crown prince of the Jin State, Wanyan Yungong, and was accompanied by the general Wu Lin.

After a qiē was ready, Xiaozong Zhao You finally arrived in the limelight, at this time, the Luan Yiwei official sounded the whip, and the hundred officials and envoys knelt down to greet him.

After Zhao You sat in the Daqing Palace, the officials above the fourth rank entered according to the rank of the knighthood, and each of them was established according to the ranking of the praise officials.

After the ministers bowed three times and bowed nine times, the officials of Honglu Temple were envoys from the three kingdoms outside the hall and entered the temple in order to pay respects.

After the three kingdoms paid their respects, the crown prince of the Jin Kingdom simply saluted, and then went straight to the point: "Brother Huang, I don't know if you have read the edict issued by your father?" ”

Wanyan Yungong's words can be described as extremely provocative

bluntly called Zhao You the emperor's brother in person, although it is understandable according to the rules. After all, the two countries are commensurate with uncles and nephews, so Zhao You is naturally a generation later than the current Emperor of Jin.

At this time, it is reasonable for the crown prince of Jin State to call him the imperial brother.

But when these words were said on such an occasion, where did Zhao You's face be placed, and where did he put Da Song's face.

Although the civil and military officials present were all indignant, they had no reason to refute it. They all glanced sideways at Zhao You on the dragon chair, and then they all lowered their heads silently and were silent.

"I saw it" Zhao You's expression was very calm, and he responded flatly.

"Then I don't know how the Imperial Brother feels about the defeat of the eight great academies of your country?"

Wan Yan Yungong smiled coldly, and then continued: "The Song Kingdom prides itself on its flourishing literary style, and often thinks that my Jin Kingdom is just a reckless man in the world, and now this prince is a Bada Mountain Man to deal with your country's qin, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, history, theory, and counting eight scribes, which can be regarded as comprehensive."

"I'm a great Song scribe more than 10 million, Prince Yungong, I'm too happy too early" Zhao You's expression was slightly moved, but there was no concession in his words.

"Hahaha royal brother, it's not that this prince looks down on the Song people, it's just that the Song people are sluggish and vulnerable"

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you have fought with others without the permission of Your Majesty, which is not in accordance with the regulations, and I don't know what external factors are involved, so isn't it too early to assert?"

A person walked out of the chao class, this person was Yu Yunwen, the chief of the court, and after seeing Yan Yungong so wanton and arrogant, it was really difficult for him to turn a blind eye.

"Oh? Too early to assert? What kind of poetry is that, 'the first book in the world,...... It seems that it is really a reputation for fame, but that Xu Xingyue has a plaque, called 'National Hand Unparalleled, it is said to be the true handiwork left by King Kang back then, I don't know if there is such a thing? ”

"The name of the prince of the bold emperor back then, how can you be allowed to blaspheme the prince Yungong so much, don't lose your courtesy"

Seeing Wanyan Yungong becoming more and more unscrupulous, Zhao You could not hide the anger in his heart, and bluntly said the name of the prince of the Emperor Zhao Gou on this main hall, which could not be tolerated no matter what.

Emperor Zhao Gou fled from the Jin Kingdom to Jiangnan as King Kang and became the founding emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Now this Wanyan Yungong does not call Zhao Gou the emperor, but calls him the prince of the year, which is enough to show his contempt and disdain. Imagine that even Zhao Gou is not the emperor, so where will he Zhao You, the emperor who was conceded by Zen, be placed?

Seeing that Xiaozong Zhao You was really angry, Wanyan Yungong just smiled faintly and retracted Fang Cai's fierce momentum: "Since it is a literary exchange, this prince doesn't want to be truthful."

"It seems that for the contest of the eight academies, the imperial brother is not convinced, this prince came this time, just to see the so-called literary orthodoxy of the Song Dynasty The royal brother has tens of millions of literati in the Great Song Dynasty as the reason, so how about the prince set a deadline and make an agreement?"

"Agreements?" Zhao You held the armrests with both hands, leaned forward slightly, and asked a little solemnly.

"Yes, the crown prince came to make an agreement with the imperial brother instead of his father, if this exchange, if there are capable people in the Song Kingdom, and more than half of the Bada Mountain people are victorious, then the collegial treaty signed by the two countries that year will be null and void, and the two countries will no longer be commensurate with uncles and nephews, but will be treated as brothers, and the annual coins paid by the Song State will also be cancelled."

hiss

After Yan Yungong's words, it caused a lot of storm in the Daqing Palace, and the ministers were in an uproar. Even Zhao You, who lived above the Dragon Court, looked slightly moved.

The so-called New Year's coins are only a few hundred thousand yuan, which is not a burden for today's imperial court. But the only thing that made the Great Song Dynasty and the opposition unwilling and humiliated was the relationship between the uncle and nephew of these two countries

There is a generation lower between countries, and you can imagine what a great shame this is for the people. Therefore, when Zhao You and the ministers heard that this relationship had eased, they couldn't help but be stunned.

If it is changed to a brotherly relationship, although Jin Guo is still honored as a brother, at least it is a fellowship of the same generation.

Li Renyou watched coldly from the sidelines, and then said to himself: "What a big deal, it seems that a good show is about to appear......"

"What His Royal Highness King Yue said is extremely true, a dragon and tiger fight is inevitable, but no matter who the winner is, we should only be spectators," Luo Wanming, the prime minister of Zuo, lightly twisted his beard and smiled slightly.

"Interesting"

At this moment, Xiao Duolubu of the Liao State Mission looked around at the courtiers, but he didn't see Ye Yu's figure, and he was inevitably a little disappointed in his heart, and then silently said to himself: "Isn't this kid being released as an official?" ”

"Brother, I really didn't expect this Jin Kingdom to play such a hand, and now even the eight academies of the Song Kingdom are unmatched, it seems that they are Zhizhu in this matter"

[Yelupu Wan] didn't pay attention to what Xiao Duolubu was thinking, but felt solemn about the situation at the scene.

The so-called benefits must be taken secretly

Jin Guo dares to make such a concession, then it shows that while Cheng Zhu is in his chest, it will also indicate that what he asks for will not be too ordinary.

"Yes, sweeping the eight academies of the Song Kingdom in five days, it seems that the eight mountain people of the Jin Kingdom have reached the peak of their respective skills, if you try one, the Song Dynasty may still have capable people to compete with it, but these eight are all ......."
