The whip sounded three times, and all the officials returned to everyone to welcome the emperor.

Chao Gai sat on the dragon chair, and without waiting for the head of the hall to speak, he said in a deep voice: "Yesterday, Tian Hu and Wang Qing sent an envoy together, asking my Daliang to let Zhao Ji give an order, Yongxing Army and Qin Feng Road will be returned to Shun Tianhu, and Jingxi Road and Huainan West Road will be returned to Shun Wang Qing. The Liao State also gathered troops and horses on the border, saying that an envoy had come south from Nanjing, asking my Great Liang to inherit the alliance between the Song Dynasty and the Liao State, and give the Liao State 300,000 horses of silk and 200,000 taels of silver every year. What do you think? ”

As soon as the words fell, Lin Chong came out and said: "Tian Hu and Wang Qing are just harming the people, and the Liao State is already struggling, and now they want to take advantage of the unstable foothold of my Daliang and grab food, and Weichen thinks that he can't agree to their request." ”

Wu Song, Mu Hong, and Xu Ning also came out and said: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

Chao Gai saw that everyone in Liangshan spoke out, so he frightened the officials who returned to Shun, no one dared to speak, the Song Dynasty was a literati who wantonly suppressed the martial arts, but the Liang was a literati with a tail between his legs. He also said: "You generals can fight well, but this matter still needs to be considered in the long run." Once refused, Tian Hu and Wang Qing will join forces to attack Xijing, and the soldiers and horses of the Liao State may also invade, and my dynasty may not be able to wage war with the three forces at the same time. ”

Huang Qianshan, the head of the household, saw that the emperor seemed to have the intention of making peace, and immediately jumped out to cater to the holy will and said: "The minister thinks that it is better to appease one or both of them, concentrate forces to wipe out one person, and then take the others." ”

Wu Yong said: "The envoys of Tian Hu and Wang Qing came together, just to force our court to agree with the help of the power of the two, I am afraid that there is an alliance, and it may not be easy to divide the two." ”

Huang Qianshan said: "If the Liao State only wants to inherit the covenant of the previous dynasty and give them the New Year's coins, maybe they can come down first, after all, I will give tens of millions of dollars in the year, and the Liao State will only ask for hundreds of thousands." If it's a war together. I am afraid that the cost will be several times what the Liao State wants. ”

Chao Yong didn't say anything before, because he knew that there would inevitably be such remarks, and he was also waiting to make an example of him, and when he heard the words, he immediately came out and said: "Erchen, please punish this person." ”

Huang Qianshan heard the prince say this, and immediately collapsed to the ground in fright.

Since the Liang Dynasty became the master, the execution of the seven thieves of the Song Dynasty was ordered by the prince, and then Chao Gai came to the court, did things magnanimously, and did not kill on a large scale, so the people's hearts were able to quickly settle down.

Regardless of whether the father and son were intentional or unintentional. The two of them are singing white-faced and black-faced, and the officials all know that the main killer is the prince, so they are naturally more in awe of the prince.

Huang Qianshan collapsed on the ground and trembled: "I don't know what the minister's crime is? ”

The ministers were also very strange, and they all pricked up their ears and waited for the prince to answer.

Chao Yong said: "The crime of treason." The Liao State is already at sunset, and the Song Dynasty still wants to join forces with the Jin State to destroy the Liao State and recapture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, but now it has asked me to sign an alliance with the Liao State under the city. Exchange gold and silver for a moment of peace. Doesn't it mean that my Liang is not even as good as the Song Dynasty. ”

When Huang Qianshan heard this, he hurriedly argued: "Daliang destroyed the Song Dynasty, how dare Weichen say that my Daliang is not as good as the Song Dynasty, but my Daliang has not yet unified the country." There are still Wang Qing and Tian Hu in the country, and Weichen wants to negotiate peace with Liao for the time being. ”

Chao Yong sneered: "Then what if it is after the Jin State destroys Liao, what about the border of Bingchen?" Will peace be made again with silver and gold? What's more, my emperor Chrysostom said that once the covenant is signed. How can it be repeated, how can it be said for the time being? ”

Huang Qianshan's life is at stake, and he can't be afraid. argued: "The big husband can bend and stretch, Tang Taizong Li Shimin also signed an alliance with the Turks, emptied the treasury to retreat from the enemy, endured humiliation, and waited until the soldiers were well fed, and sent troops to destroy the Turks, and he was ashamed." ”

Chao Yong said: "During Li Shimin's time, the Tang Dynasty soldiers and horses were the army that defeated the heroes at the end of the Sui Dynasty and unified the country. Although Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty tyrannized the people, he conquered the Turks, Tuyuhun, Goguryeo, and barbarians from all over the world to worship. At that time, the people of the Central Plains were proud, because the Central Plains was the real kingdom of the Heavenly Empire. Li Shimin signed the alliance under the city, and the whole country was naturally sad and indignant, if Li Shimin was determined to fight to the death, I am afraid that the people of the whole country would defend the dignity of the heavenly kingdom to the death. It's a pity that at that time, Li Shimin's Xuanwu Gate killed his brother and brother, and the Central Plains was also surging, and he didn't dare to fight to the death with the Turks, he was afraid of losing the throne, so he signed an alliance under the city. Of course, Li Shimin was also an eloquent emperor, and he took revenge within a few years. ”

Saying that, Chao Yong walked up to Huang Qianshan and said, "Let me ask you, is the Song Dynasty rich or the Tang Dynasty rich?" ”

Huang Qianshan didn't know what Chao Yong meant, so he had to say truthfully: "Song Chaofu is rich." ”

"Let me ask you again, the Song Dynasty or the Tang Dynasty had a large population?"

"The Song Dynasty had a large population."

"Then the Song Dynasty has money and many people, why is the Tang Dynasty the Heavenly Empire, but the Song Dynasty has to spend money to buy peace?"

Huang Qianshan thought for a while and said, "There are horses in the Tang Dynasty, and there are few horses in the Song Dynasty." ”

This point of view was also recognized by all the civil and military officials of the Song Dynasty, and many people nodded secretly when they heard Huang Qianshan say this.

Chao Yong kicked Huang Qianshan over, turned to the civil and military officials and said: "The Song Dynasty is not a horse, but a backbone. The Tanyuan Alliance has been here for more than a hundred years. You are all accustomed to spending money to buy peace, yes, the Song Dynasty paid tens of millions of dollars in taxes every year, and only a few hundred thousand yuan was given to Liao and Western Xia. It's good for the economy, but what you wear out is the backbone and pride of the Han people. Even the iron and blood of the soldiers have been wiped out by you, Liaogou can come to my Central Plains to fight the grass valley, but the border army of the Song Dynasty cannot cross the border to chase and kill. Why? Are they afraid of being killed by Liao dogs? No, what they are afraid of is being questioned by you bigwigs in the DPRK and China. And what are you big guys afraid of? What you are afraid of is that the Liao State Xingshi will ask for the guilt. ”

"The soldiers are still like that, but what about the people? The Liao people killed the people, do the officials below dare to ask for the guilt? Don't dare. But if my people kill the Liao, I'm afraid you will cut down the people first without asking questions, right? ”

"Where did the backbone of the Han people come from, from above this court, from you ministers who have heard the tiger's color. The Liao State is losing and retreating in the north, and the day of annihilation is not far away, do they dare to go to war with my Daliang again? The gathering of troops and horses is mostly a bluff, and you are so frightened that you want to give away the people's hard-earned money. The Liao State only knew that there were people like you in the court, so they dared to blackmail us. Most of the elite of the Liao State had already been annihilated by the Jin State, and most of the remaining soldiers and horses were also resisting the Jin State in the north. How many tens of thousands of soldiers and horses can be assembled in the Southern Courtyard? ”

Chao Yong reprimanded, and saw that the hundred officials didn't dare to look at him, so he turned around and said: "My Liang has 50,000 soldiers and horses in Hebei, which is enough to hold Hebei." Erchen is willing to lead his troops north, and if the Liao State dares to invade, Erchen will definitely give him a head-on blow. ”

Lin Chong was also enthusiastic when he heard Chao Yong's scolding, and he hugged his fists and said: "The last general is willing to fight Liao with the prince." ”

Wu Song and Mu Hong also forgot their previous agreement with Lin Chong, and said in unison: "We are willing to fight Liao with the prince." ”

Even Xu Ning, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, couldn't help but go out and echo. (To be continued......)
