When everyone heard that Li Liangzuo of the Western Xia sent troops, they all thought it was very strange, didn't Wang Bi go to the Western Xia last time to discuss trade and make a negotiated agreement, and he couldn't afford to discuss the war for the peace and exchange of borders.

Lu Shenyan said nervously: "This is troublesome, there are still tea farms in Yanzhou and other places, and if there is a war, business will not be able to be done." ”

Zhao Zhongzhen stopped his words: "Steward Lu knows the business of your second son, I think that if you don't fight, your tea farm may not be able to do business, Li Liangzuo of Western Xia sent troops this time, it is to annoy me that there is no progress in the trade of the Great Song Dynasty, and the imperial court sent people to take over the border tea farm, and the people who went to increase the tax on the goods entering the Song Kingdom in the Western Xia, and also increased the price of selling tea, which made Li Liangzuo angry, so he sent troops to attack the Song State." ”

"Yes." Lu Shenyan said this word hatefully, and suddenly saw that everyone was looking at him, knowing that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly changed his words: "Don't misunderstand what I mean, I said 'should' because the receiver should be held responsible, and if there is an explanation, the border will naturally be too peaceful, eldest prince, are you saying that what I said is right." ”

Wang Yan nodded, he knew in his heart that the cause of this matter was Song Yingzong Zhao Shu, but in front of Zhongzhen, no matter how angry he was, he couldn't say anything, not to mention that everyone also knew that Zhao Zhongzhen had done his best in this matter next to the king.

Wang Shao sighed and said, "It's a pity that Wang Shilang is not here, otherwise there would be no need to be so bothered." ”

Zhao Zhongzhen looked at Wang Shao, and he felt that Wang Shao seemed to have made a very important discovery: "Zichun, you just said that Wang Shilang entrusted you with something, can it have anything to do with fighting with Western Xia?" ”

Wang Shao nodded and said: "Yes, to take the Western Xia, you must first restore the Hehuang, so that the Xia people will suffer from the enemy, this is the result of my years of traveling all over the Hehuang and other places, observing the terrain, and investigating the relationship between the Western Xia and the Tubo and other ethnic groups near Hehuang, and also, Wang Shilang asked me to write a copy of "Pingrong Policy", I went back to the capital this time, just to calm down, sort out the information and do this with Wang Shilang. ”

Zhao Zhongzhen listened to it and moved in his heart, Wang Shao is a talent, if his exposition is adopted by his father and the emperor, take down the Western Xia, the border can also be worry-free, "Zichun, although you concentrate on writing, by the way, where do you go back to the capital to live." ”

Wang Shao replied: "I am currently living in the Didian, and I will inform you when I decide on a specific place to live, so I can contact you often." ”

Zhao Zhongzhen heard Wang Shao say this, so he proposed: "Zichun is my friend who has no brother, and he is also a friend of all of us, if you don't dislike it, can you ask Zichun to live in my house first, and we can usually exchange more strategies for Pingrong." ”

Wang Shao just knew that the person in front of him was a county king, but seeing that Zhao Zhongzhen was young, he behaved well, and felt that the friend next to the king was naturally not too bad, "This, will it be too annoying." ”

Zhong Zhen waved his hand: "Don't bother, my big mansion doesn't have any companions on weekdays, and I look forward to everyone coming and going." ”

Yuan Ze hurriedly said to Wang Shao: "Thank you for the gentleman's kindness." ”

Wang Shao thanked Zhao Zhongzhen, he just thought about what he said downstairs just now, he didn't know the official child when he didn't go to the capital, and it was normal for the official descendants to be the king in the capital, but he didn't know it at the moment, the young man who invited him to the house was the prince of the current emperor and the future monarch of the Great Song Dynasty.

Wang Shao is not wrong at all, the Western Xia has the Great Liao to the north, and the Great Song Dynasty to the east, and the Hehuang and Qinghai areas are not only rich in products, but also if Tubo and the Great Song Dynasty join forces, it will inevitably put the Western Xia in the belly and back of the enemy, which not only Wang Shao saw, but also the Western Xia Emperor Li Liangzuo also realized,

During this time, Li Liangzuo was not idle at all, Li Liangzuo led the Western Xia generals to carry out many wars against Tubo, occupied Hehuang and Qinghai, and appeased the Western Regions City (now Dingxi County, Gansu) Tubo leader Yu Zanghua Ma, Li Liangzuo consolidated the results of the war, while actively carrying out trade with the Song State with hope, but Renzong died, Yingzong ascended the throne and went crazy, and the whole discussion was suspended in half,

Li Liangzuo sent someone to inquire about the news of Wang Bian, knowing that Wang Bian sent an envoy to Liao State to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday, and thought that soon Wang Bian would be able to return to Song State to run the Western Xia and Song Kingdom with peace of mind, but he got the news that made him very angry, Yingzong did not let Wang Pan return to Song Kingdom,

Then he heard that the border field was not an equal deal he wanted at all, and the only thing he could think of was that if the civil was not good, he would come to the martial arts and send troops to fight me.

Xixia just ordered all the soldiers and horses, and there was no fight, Song Yingzong gave in, everything was done according to the original discussion, Song Yingzong was a little cowardly, he couldn't help it, he knew in his heart that this battle couldn't be fought, he just came to power to have no soldiers, there were no generals, there were still so many deficits in the treasury, and there were no things that could make money through trade.

Li Liangzuo was very happy to see that Song Yingzong had given in, and immediately set up a banquet in the palace to celebrate with the ministers, but he still had some regrets in his heart, and Queen Liang Luoyao quietly asked: "The emperor has won a few battles now, and he has achieved his goal without going out to fight for the Song Kingdom, why is the saint still depressed." ”

Li Liangzuo pointed to the officials in the palace: "They don't know what I'm thinking, don't you know, queen." ”

Liang Luoyao said softly: "How could I not know, the emperor must miss that Wang Shilang, isn't it, it is rare for the emperor to talk to someone, now his family is controlled by the emperor of the Song State, and he has to send an envoy to Goryeo, I am afraid that everyone in the world knows about it." ”

Li Liangzuo took a sip of wine and said depressedly: "Yes, everyone in the world knows it, and I also know that the Liao Kingdom has lent me this brother's soldiers, but as his brother-in-law, I can't do anything." ”

Righteous brother, Liang Luoyao was stunned when he heard this: "When did the emperor become his righteous brother." ”

"The last time I attacked Jiaoluo, Wang Shilang saved my life, and you also know the queen, if others know that I have to worship the king as my brother, I will not have face, besides, now the emperor of the Song Kingdom is so stingy, if he knows that the king is my brother-in-law, he will find a reason to rectify my brother."

Liang Luoyao smiled when she heard this, this king is lukewarm to herself, and she has a little affection for Li Liangzuo, but since they are married, they are not afraid that Wang will not come to Xixia in the future, sooner or later it will be his own dish, Liang Luoyao doesn't believe it, he will not be able to get his hands on what he likes,

Seeing that the emperor was still unhappy, Liang Luoyao had a plan, she sighed and said: "Yes, the emperor also said that even Da Liao has lent troops to the king, we can't help but do something for my brother." ”

Li Liangzuo looked at Liang Luoyao, only to see Liang Luoyao's hair and sideburns, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of spring, such a gentle and understanding queen, so considerate of her own feelings, she was moved to ask in her heart: "Queen, you say, what can we do for our brother." ”

Liang Luoyao tilted her head and thought about it and said: "Your Majesty, I also heard that the monarch of the Song Kingdom used the wife and children of the king to threaten each other, no matter whether the king wins or loses, the safety of your nephew is in suspense, why don't we take the son of Wang Shilang to Xixia, take good care of it, and also be with our prince, you see how it goes." ”

When Li Liangzuo heard this, he smiled: "The queen is joking, how can I take this, Song Guo will not let go." ”

Liang Luoyao waved his hand and said softly: "The emperor wants to take it, for the safety of your brother-in-law, you can't let others know." ”

Li Liangzuo looked at Liang Luoyao and didn't understand Liang Luoyao's thoughts, Liang Luoyao smiled and said: "Your Majesty, do you remember that there is a master named Leng Qing in our Western Xia, who once worked for the Wuzang family, and after the Wuzang family was destroyed by the emperor, the emperor cherished this person's martial arts and especially forgave this person's sins, and now the emperor can summon him and let him go to the Song Kingdom to quietly 'pick up' the son next to the king." ”

Li Liangzuo frowned and hesitated: "That's it, okay." ”

Liang Luoyao said softly: "What's wrong, who in the world doesn't know, the emperor of the Song Kingdom can't tolerate Wang Shilang, how dare the king and his ministers not die, if the son of your righteous brother really has three long and two short, wouldn't your righteous brother be in vain, besides, if you know that you think so thoughtfully for him, you will definitely be grateful." ”

"Okay, then let Leng Qing find a way to bring my brother-in-law's wife and children, I will send someone to inform my brother-in-law, and he will be coerced by the madman emperor, if he doesn't want to be an official in the Song Kingdom one day, he will come to our Xixia family reunion." Li Liangzuo finally smiled,

Liang Luoyao smiled secretly in her heart: Silly boy, do you think this is for the good of the king, how do you know that the king's parents and brothers and his foundation are all in the Song Kingdom, if the emperor of the Song Kingdom knows about this, can he easily let go of the family next to the king, my aunt and grandmother are just looking for an opportunity to hold this person hostage,

Li Liangzuo immediately sent a message to Leng Qing, ordering him to go to the Song Kingdom immediately, and no matter what, he had to find a way to "take" the wife and children next to the king to Western Xia.

Leng Qing, this person has disappeared for many years, when he was found to have a plot to usurp the throne, he was found out, and he was wiped out, Leng Qing was a person who did not hide his family, but because he found the Baishi God, he was not only not guilty, but was pardoned by Li Liangzuo for his merit.

Speaking of which, this person has a deep relationship with the king under the moon, and now this person wants to re-walk the road of the year, but what he brings back is not the incarnation of the white stone god Liang Yuexia back then, but to bring back the wife and children next to the king, Leng Qing Lingzhi felt helpless, how to go around, he was over this little thing, as a master of Western Xia, he caught people from the Song Kingdom again and again, and he also caught the same person every time,

Fortunately, this time it was "pick-up" rather than catching, despite this, he also knew that this secret "pick-up" was no different from the previous two times, how could he "pick up" the mother and son under the moon without being known,

If Wang Pan knew that so many things had happened in Bianjing in the Great Song Dynasty and Xingqing Mansion in Western Xia, would he still be at ease, at this time, Wang Pan was commanding the four-way army, all the way to Hokkaido; All the way to Kyushu Island; all the way through the strait between Goryeo and the Japanese slaves, preparing to intercept the fleeing Japanese slaves; Wang Pan sent troops all the way from Pyongyang to Tokyo in Goryeo to expel the Japanese slaves.
