Chapter Fifty-Four: Snow Shame

Xu Hongqian finished reading the Jianshanmen Victory Report and Peng Chaodong's recital word by word under the lamp.

Xu Hongqian read very slowly, and Xu Hongqian's expression was solemn after reading the song, and his eyes were fixed on the word "song" and the upper line. Da Zhao's recital is very taboo to discuss such words, and the line is a euphemism for negotiation.

Song Yuren sat upright in front of the desk, condescending, staring closely at Xu Hongqian's black gauze hat, Xu Hongqian's hands trembling with Song Shu.

Peng Chaodong sat in Liaodong and had many correspondence with Xu Hongqian. In his personal letters to him, Peng Chaodong mentioned to Xu Hongqian many times that he wanted to negotiate peace with the Meng ancients. Xu Hongqian's biggest intention in recommending Peng Chaodong out of Liaodong was to hope that Peng Chaodong would pacify Manliao as soon as possible, so as to stabilize his position as the first assistant among the central assistants. Xu Hongqian's ability to hold the position of first assistant for a long time has a lot to do with the fact that Peng Chaodong was in Shaanxi at that time, but he was barbaric in the northwest and pacified the rebellion in Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces internally. Xu Hongqian and Peng Chaodong are the relationship of friendship, the relationship between the two is very good, there is such a relationship, Peng Chaodong is out of the town, Xu Hongqian fully supports Peng Chaodong in the court.

Throughout the Great Zhao Empire, which has been established for more than 200 years and has gone through 16 generations of monarchs, there are only two ministers who can serve as governors of a place for 30 years, one is Shang Chuanren in the Shenzong period, and the other is Peng Chaodong in the current dynasty. Because of this, Peng Chaodong was deeply branded by the Qin Party and was regarded as the core figure of the Qin Party. Peng Chaodong's hometown is in Gongchang Mansion, Shaanxi, according to the regulations, Dazhao officials should avoid their hometowns, Peng Chaodong's appointment as the governor of Shaanxi West has violated the regulations of the officialdom of Shaanxi, and Peng Chaodong's achievements in the 30 years of serving as the governor of Shaanxi are dazzling, and he holds the Qin army, which is known as the first strong army of the Great Zhao Empire. The DPRK and China naturally have no shortage of gossip about Peng Chaodong.

But Peng Chaodong was able to withstand these rumors and sat in the position of governor of Shaanxi for 30 years, thanks to the Qin party led by Xu Hongqian in the court, Song Yuren's trust and reliance on the Qin party.

Peng Chaodong had to deal with not only the newly strong Liao State, but also the Menggu tribes that he had driven to Chahar and Mobei by him before. Two-front warfare has been a taboo for soldiers since ancient times, the Liao army is strong and strong, full of sharpness, and Peng Chaodong is already very weak to deal with the Liao State alone. If he can negotiate peace with the Meng people, Peng Chaodong's pressure in Liaodong will be greatly reduced, and he will devote more energy to fighting against Liao.

"What do you think of the cuteness?" Song Yuren asked Xu Hongqian word by word.

There are only three people in the main hall: Song Yuren, Xu Hongqian and Zhao Song. Song Yuren's voice was loud and shocking in the silent hall, and the words echoed in the empty hall, lingering in Xu Hongqian's ears.

Peace with foreign clans is a taboo in the Great Zhao Dynasty, when Emperor Muzong, the Meng people used to be Chen Bingjing Shicheng, when there were three ministers in the court to discuss peace with the Meng people, and gave the Meng people a small favor, so that the Meng people retreated. Emperor Muzong was furious and ordered the three ministers who had negotiated peace to be decompressed to the top of the treason in Caishikou and executed. Thinking of the fate of the three peace ministers in the Mu Zong era, Xu Hongqian's back broke out in a cold sweat. Previously, he had vaguely mentioned to Song Yuren in private the matter of negotiating peace with the Meng ancients, Song Yuren wouldn't be using this matter to punish him now, right?

"The emperor forgives the sin! Wechen don't dare! Xu Hongqian grabbed the ground headlong, and his forehead was tightly pressed against the ground.

"Why is Xu Qing so coy, isn't even Xu Qing willing to tell me the truth?" Song Yuren smiled bitterly, with a sad expression.

"The matter is big, and Weichen doesn't dare to say anything, but it depends on the emperor's holy judgment!" Xu Hongqian's forehead was still tightly pressed against the ground drill, and he didn't dare to look up at Song Yuren.

Song Yuren let out a long breath and looked at Zhao Song: "Big companion, help Xu Ge get old, the ground is cold." ”

Zhao Song meeting, tiptoed forward to help Xu Hongqian: "Elder Xu Ge, get up, Elder Xu Ge is the pillar of my Great Zhao Dynasty and the emperor's minister." Taking advantage of the moment of helping Xu Hongqian, Zhao Song took advantage of the opportunity to lean into Xu Hongqian's ear and whispered: "The emperor has the meaning of a cute ancient person, and the old camera of the pavilion should not miss the opportunity." ”

Xu Hongqian reluctantly stood up with Zhao Song's support, his face was full of sweat, and a large piece of skin was rubbed off his forehead.

Xu Hongqian stood in place, only to feel dizzy in front of him, and it took a long time to recover, pondering Zhao Song's words just now in his heart, and plucked up the courage to glance at Song Yuren in the hall with the corner of his eye.

Song Yuren didn't sit on the desk at this time, and he didn't know when he had already stood up, standing with his hands behind Xu Hongqian and Zhao Song.

Song Yuren's eyes were blazing, and his gaze fell on a large map in front of him, which was a map of the situation in Liaodong.

"I don't know the difficulties of Peng Qing sitting in Liaodong." Song Yuren lifted the red pen and drew a big circle in Chahar and Mobei, and then drew a big circle with Liaoyang City as the center, "At present, the country is in internal and external difficulties, Qing knows, I know that you are hindered by the ancestral system, and you dare not make peace." ”

Speaking of this, Song Yuren suddenly stopped, waved his pen and wrote two big characters on the map - Snow Shame!

"In the thirteenth year of Zhenyuan, my Great Zhao was defeated in Liaodong, the Liao captives killed me and surrendered 60,000, the Liao people were displaced, not to mention millions, the Liao people moved to the Liao Wang's mansion, founded the Great Liao, changed the Yuan Tianxing, and my Great Zhao Division, issued an edict to the world, and denounced my Great Zhao Dynasty as the Southern Dynasty! This is a shame that my Great Zhao has never had in more than 200 years. Song Yuren said, two lines of tears crossed his thin cheeks, "This shame is not bloody!" It's hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart! ”

"Your Majesty!" Xu Hongqian fell to the ground with tears in his eyes, "Weichen is incompetent and can't share the emperor's worries." ”

"Get up." Song Yuren raised his hand and motioned for Xu Hongqian to stand up, "The situation is difficult, and only the monarchs and ministers are united at the moment, and Da Zhao can get through this difficulty." ”

Song Yuren sat back in front of the case and said: "The Meng Gu is declining, and it can't become any climate, but it is difficult to completely exterminate the Meng Gu people on the grassland, Peng Qing defeated the Meng Gu in the past to recover the Yellow River Loop, and the Meng Gu people fled to Chahar, Mobei and other places, this time Peng Qing defeated the Meng Gu 12 tribe alliance again at Jianshan Gate, and the Meng Gu people fled to Chahar and the hinterland of the Mobei grassland. On the grassland, please chase and fight the ancient people, it is not my great Zhao Jun's strength. Peng Qing took advantage of the great victory of Jianshanmen, and made money to the ancient people of Meng, temporarily settling down the ancient people, Manshu Liaoguo is my big henchman, and the ancient people are not afraid. ”

Song Yuren said these words in his heart, Xu Hongqian was still quite moved, although he also agreed to negotiate peace with the Meng Gu people to relieve Peng Chaodong's pressure, but he still had a lot of concerns. Song Yuren said this sentence in his heart, Xu Hongqian was not good at perfunctory Song Yuren: "Although it is feasible to do something about Meng Gu, the minister is only afraid that those old crows in the court will be noisy." ”
