At a time when the northwest and north of the Jin Kingdom were completely reduced to battlefields, the Qin and Song Kingdoms, which were relatively peaceful, were enjoying an unprecedentedly good time.

Because of the huge demand of the war, the prices of all kinds of materials have skyrocketed, especially grain and medicinal materials, and the price has risen the most, almost several times!

And war horses, iron tools, etc., are strictly prohibited by the government, and they don't play much role anymore. Smuggling by private individuals or private groups has become a phenomenon, and many joints have been involved, and many officials are busy fighting smuggling during the day and counting money at night until their hands cramp.

The Shang gang of the Qin and Song states took advantage of this to open up many relations, because the war of the Jin State received a large number of orders that could not be received by the government, and obtained immeasurable benefits.

The economy of the Qin State, which had not been in good shape for many years, gradually improved.

The Southern Song Dynasty relied on a large number of war orders, the rapid development of the handicraft industry, and the inflow of a large amount of gold and silver, which diverted the attention of the scholar class to the defeat to a certain extent.

Of course, people who think this way also understand that this is unrealistic and impossible to come true. The battle between the Jin and Yan kingdoms, including the war with the Xianbei people, could not have lasted too long. The Jin State will either be split or won, in short, this kind of attrition, the Jin State will not be able to support it for too long.

Of course, no one wants the Jin Kingdom to be destroyed.

The backbone of the Qin State and the Song State all understood that the Jin State was dead, and the Xianbei people and the Yan people went south, and they were the ones who faced the soldiers when the time came.

Watching the fire from across the shore is always the coolest. No one wants to burn to their doorstep.

The attitude of the two countries to make a fortune without their own affairs is undoubtedly the greatest blessing for the Jin State at this time. If it is the whole world...... In addition to being frightened, the Jin people also had a comfort. Things have gotten so bad that they won't get any worse.

As for the arrogance and difficulty of the envoys of the Qin State and the Southern Song Dynasty, the officials of the Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites did not feel that it was very difficult to deal with at this time.

With the reversal of roles, the previous strength of the Jin State is gone, and the bowing and low-eyebrow of the Song State no longer exists. Fortunately, the people who negotiated the agreement between the two countries are very familiar with this, and the unequal transformation of high and low is almost no need for a smooth transition.

Even some envoys were picking quarrels and provoking trouble in the Jin capital, but some people endured it to a limited extent and suppressed the matter.

Paper can't hold fire.

In November, Princess Jinyang was embarrassed by Song Guoshizi on the street, and after covering it in Honglu Temple for five days, she was stabbed out.

As a result, large-scale public anger broke out in the Jin capital.

The public outrage here was led by a group of students and students of the Lecture Martial Arts Hall, and they received great support.

Later, these people besieged the Southern Song Dynasty embassy in the Sifang Pavilion, and broke into the embassy after the Southern Song Dynasty envoys refused to hand over people and refused to give an explanation.

In the chaos, two students died.

Afterwards...... Things got out of hand.

The shops of the Southern Song Dynasty in the capital of Jin were smashed, the Southern Song people were killed several people in one day, more than ten women were lost and insulted, and even some Qin people were affected.

"This is a rebellion! The dogs, the things....... This is a rebellion! Grab it! Grab them all! I want all those leaders to die, I want them to die......"

Chen Hua, the head of the household, roared loudly in the political affairs hall, looking like madness. His hat had already fallen to the ground, and the Lord Shangshu of the Criminal Department wanted to help him pick it up several times, but he had no choice but to give up after Chen Hua stepped on the hat with one foot.

Chen Hua's roar was over, no one dared to speak, and only his gasp was left in the not spacious political hall. Soon after, it was rumored that the crown prince and the king of Qi had arrived, and Chen Hua waved his hand weakly, signaling to invite the two highnesses to come in.

The prince and the king of Qi entered the political hall, and their feelings were quite complicated, in fact, this was the third time the prince and the first time the king of Qi came in.

The two may have been at odds with each other in the past, but when they come in at this time, they are working hand in hand and coming for the same thing.

Since Emperor Jin led his army north, the crown prince has twice participated in the decision-making of the political affairs hall, including the transfer of a part of the northwest cao to Shandong Province, and the rationing of war horses in the three major horse farms. As the prince, he has the nominal right to listen to and advise, but in fact he has no real influence.

But being able to sit in on the decision-making process in the government hall is itself an influence.

The bigwigs in the political hall will also notice the prince before speaking and making a decision.

Compared with King Qi, who came here for the first time, the crown prince knew very well that he had already achieved a great lead in this battle, and it was likely that he would always be ahead.

So this time the king of Qi asked to enter the political hall, and the prince showed the tolerance and generosity that a winner should have.

After taking his seat, Lin Lingsi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, whispered about the course and results of the whole past few days, and at the end, he said the opinion of the political affairs hall, or the decision.

“...... It is a matter of diplomatic relations, and it is an unforgivable sin, let alone in the current situation. The two students who were killed, one of them had no background, and it shouldn't be difficult to send some money. The other is tricky, it is the collateral descendants of the Huaiyang Dao surnames, they are not prominent, and on weekdays, even if they die sideways, it is not a big problem. But he was beaten to death by the Song people in the Sifang Pavilion, and Huaiyang Dao wanted to say the law. And the surnames of Huaiyang Dao tried to protect Zhang Dongting, who killed Jiang Zhimiao, a great merchant in the Southern Song Dynasty, and almost all of the Tai Academy and Jiangwutang supported it, and the entire Jin capital was in support. ”

"At present, relying on Tiqi, the situation has been basically controlled, a group of splashes have been arrested, a warning has been given, all the troublemakers have been arrested, and it is strictly forbidden to visit the prison. The Song embassy of the Sifang Pavilion is guarded by Ti Cai, and the safety can also be guaranteed, and the Kyoto Prefecture is under martial law, and no one dares to talk nonsense on the street. ”

"What we mean is, Zhang Dongting, don't let it go. Huaiyang Road wants to explain it, and it can be delayed. Nan Huaixiu, the chief envoy of the Song State, has promised that as long as Zhang Dongting is handed over, the agreement will continue, and as long as the compensation is reasonable, the Song State may not pursue ......"

The prince listened attentively, not nodding, and did not react to the attitude expressed by the surnames of Huaiyang Dao, did not interject during the period, and only nodded at the proposal of the Southern Song Dynasty envoy Nan Huaixiu.

After Lin Lingsi finished speaking, the prince asked, "That's all?" ”

“...... That's all. ”

"Lord Lin, is the decision of the Political Affairs Hall really so much?"

Lin Lingsi was a little puzzled, isn't it so much to have so many thoughts?

"Chen Shangshu, what Lord Lin just said is all that the political hall means?"

Chen Hua's face was gloomy. The hat that had fallen to the ground and had been stepped on by him had been picked up and wiped clean by the officials of the government hall before the prince came in, and was put on his head.

"In general, that's all. It's just that there is one more, Lord Lin didn't say. ”

The prince raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? What is it? ”

"I won't hand over Zhang Dongting and let them take it back! Zhang Dongting must die! And you must die in Jindu! The Southern Song Dynasty dignitaries can, let them bring a dead body back! ”

Chen Hua's voice was extremely vicious, as if he had a grudge against Zhang Dongting, and wanted to kill him and then hand him over to a foreign country.

This is very uncommon. In fact, according to the general posture, even if Zhang Dongting was the mastermind of this incident, the main participant, the Jin State would not hand him over to other countries, and according to the consistent diplomatic strength of the Jin State, it was even more impossible to execute this person and give the body to other countries.

Not to mention whether this kind of treatment will cause greater public resentment, it is impossible to look at the face of the Jin Kingdom alone.

How can anyone kill his own people to appease the anger of other countries, let alone in Kyoto! No matter how great the sin this person committed.

But Chen Hua said it, and he said it so gaffe-like and so resolutely.

He wanted to kill Zhang Dongting, regardless of the opposition of the people of Kyoto and even the entire Great Jin Dynasty, and he didn't care about the attitude of the Huaiyang Dao surnames, and he wanted to kill Zhang Dongting.

Chen Hua has a reason for Chen Hua.

The Song State is very important, it is very important to ensure that the Song State can continue to take over the war orders of the Jin State, and it is even more important to ensure the neutrality of the Song State.

As long as the above importance is ensured, he has a steady stream of supplies in his hands to support the needs of the two battlefields in the north.

In this way, he can become an important figure above 10,000 people under the Great Jin Dynasty, and naturally, he Chen Hua has firmly sat in the first position in the political affairs hall, and even became the first cabinet chief assistant since the founding of the Great Jin Dynasty.

This is very simple, and it is also very clear and clear, everyone understands, the other bigwigs in the political hall understand, the officials of the Jin Kingdom understand, the prince and the King of Qi also understand, and even the old men and children of the Jin capital understand.

Therefore, Chen Hua will not let the envoys of the Southern Song Dynasty to the Jin State Puppet have any problems, any dissatisfaction, and there can be no problems in the process of signing the agreement and even the handover in the later stage.

Everyone knows that Chen Hua has selfish intentions, but it is undeniable that Chen Hua did this for the sake of Dajin.

Everyone also understands that Chen Hua's ideas cannot be violated, and no one dares to go against them.

So it became understandable that Chen Hua wanted to kill Zhang Dongting. broke the agreement with the Southern Song Dynasty, all his Chen Hua's plans fell through, and not only failed, the operation was blocked, and the war was missed, no matter how hard his Chen Hua's head was, Emperor Jin could take it off.

Therefore, Chen Hua will do whatever it takes to appease the anger of the Song people, and he will kill Zhang Dongting to vent his anger.

So there was no objection to it.

Even if they knew that doing so would cause a strong counterattack from the Huaiyang Dao clans, they would get into trouble, and they would even die because of it.

But it can't be helped.

The demand of the Southern Song Dynasty people was very simple, that is, to hand over the mastermind.

The Chen family's mind is also very simple, to ensure that the Song people will not change their hexagrams, and then vent their anger.

In this way, Zhang Dongting can only be handed over.

This poor student who was killed by the envoys of the Southern Song Dynasty because of his fellow townsman, and killed Jiang Zhimiao, a great merchant of medicinal materials in the Southern Song Dynasty, out of revenge and anger.

The crown prince nodded and said: "Zhang Dongting's life or death, the palace doesn't care, my father's Northern Expedition entrusts the Jin capital to Lord Shangshu, and Lord Shangshu is in charge." The palace is nominally in charge of the country, and only has the right to make suggestions on national affairs, and can only observe the political affairs hall. Therefore, this palace doesn't care how Lord Shangshu deals with that troublemaker. ”

Chen Hua said: "In this way, the official gave the order. ”

"Don't rush yet."

"Your Highness still has something to do?"

The prince smiled slightly, and then said, "There is indeed something in this palace." I want Lord Shangshu to decide. ”

Decided? Now that Zhang Dongting's verdict has been decided, what else is worth talking about here?

Chen Hua frowned slightly. Lin Lingsi was not good. Then they heard the Prince's words.

"What this palace wants to say is that the envoys of the Southern Song Dynasty insulted my imperial sister, how can this matter be counted."

"The Southern Song Dynasty wants to confess, yes, I will give him an explanation!"

"But since the matter started because of them, because they insulted my princess of Dajin! The palace has to ask, how do they give an explanation to the palace, how do they give me a royal explanation? ”

"I'm done asking you because you missed it."

"The princess of my Jin Kingdom was humiliated in the country, and this is not a trivial matter. At the end of the day, almost everyone forgot about it...... I don't think that's right. ”

Anger flashed in Chen Hua's eyes, and Lin Lingsi instantly changed color.

This is nonsense.

Yes, all the bigwigs in the political hall think that the prince is finding fault. And the crown prince and the king of Qi came together, if it was just to ask for an explanation for Princess Jinyang's troubles, then it would undoubtedly be stupid.

The face of a princess is obvious compared to the survival of the entire country.

What's more, it's a princess who has been married.

Her husband's house is now in ruins.

If four or five years ago, apart from such a thing, the prince said this, Chen Hua would definitely take it seriously.

But now it's different.

Because now, he is in power.

Four or five years ago, the Xie family was at its peak, the old lady Fu was still there, and the Xie family was under the door of a Chinese book, plus the Ti Qi Division, and it was not his turn to come out Chen Hua.

So Chen Hua was ready to refute.

However, when he was about to speak, the doorman sent a document, and after reading the document, Chen Hua felt that this matter was troublesome after seeing the firmness in the eyes of the prince and the king of Qi.
