Chapter 242: Fooling the Jurchens
Two days to travel thousands of miles, in ancient times it was not impossible, but it was necessary to ride a horse for two days, and it was also under the premise that the road was smooth and smooth, but Huanglong Mansion was the northernmost province of Liao, and the road had never been very good, plus Zhao Yan They were now in the deep mountains, it was absolutely impossible to come here in just two days, and the shrewdness of the impeachment bowl could naturally see the flaws, of course, unless Zhao Yan they flew over, but the impeachment of the bowl obviously did not believe it at all.
However, when Zhao Yan heard the last sentence of the impeachment, he smiled bitterly and said: "You really guessed right, we did fly here, but we didn't fly with wings like birds, but flew over in a kind of thing called a hot air balloon." β
Hearing Zhao Yan's words, Impeachment Li Bo immediately looked Zhao Yan up and down with a suspicious gaze, although he already believed in the identities of Zhao Yan and Su Shi just now, but now he was a little suspicious that these two people were sick in the brain? Otherwise, how could a person say that he was flying over?
Seeing the suspicious expression of the impeachment bowl, Zhao Yan, Yelusi, and Su Shi couldn't help but smile bitterly, for ordinary people, if they didn't see it with their own eyes, they would never believe that they flew over, but since Zhao Yan said this, he naturally had a way to prove it, so he said very firmly: "I know that the leader may not believe the words of this king, but the hot air balloon we are riding in crashed on another hill opposite, if you don't believe it, we can take you to have a look." β
Impeachment heard that Zhao Yan still had evidence, that is, what kind of hot air balloon. This made him dispel some suspicions, and nodded immediately: "Since you have evidence, then we will take a look tomorrow, but now I want to hear how you met Prickly Shu, why is his bracelet in your hand?" β
Zhao Yan had been observing the change in the expression of the impeachment bowl, and now he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that the other party finally believed it, and then said again: "You should also be from the Wanyan Department, right?" This king said so much just now, according to etiquette, you should also introduce your identity, right? β
Hearing this, Impeachment Bowl pondered for a moment. Then he spoke: "I am the leader of the Jurchen Wanyan Department." The envoy sent to the Liao State was my younger brother Po Thorn Shu, and Hai Dongqing, who had been taken away by Po Thorn Shu a few days ago, suddenly flew back, and there were blood stains, and I guess he might have encountered an accident. Only then did he take someone to Liaoguo to inquire about the news. But now it's not necessary. It is estimated that quite a thorny Shu is more than lucky this time. β
Zhao Yan had guessed that the identities of these Jurchens were not simple before, but he didn't expect that the short and sturdy Jurchen on the opposite side was the leader of the Wanyan Department, and after a few decades, it was Wanyan Aguta who led the Jurchens to destroy the Liao State. I just don't know what the relationship between this impeachment bowl and Akuta decades later?
"It turned out to be the impeachment of the bowl leader, the king met with Yi Po Thorn Shu at the birthday banquet before, it is also a coincidence, when the Thorn Shu was toasting others, he accidentally sprinkled the wine on the body of the Western Xia envoy, which caused the other party to be angry, and then beat up the Thorn Shu, but the Thorn Shu did not dare to fight back, and was beaten with a broken head and bleeding ......"
"Huh~" Zhao Yangang said this, only to see the impeachment of the bowl of anger cut to the tree next to it, and the result of the sudden cut into a knife deep, and then saw the impeachment of the bowl said sharply: "The Western Xia is too deceitful, one day my descendants of the Yan tribe will slaughter the Western Xia!" β
Zhao Yan and the others were taken aback by the actions of the impeachment of the bowl, and the people of Da Banya thought that the impeachment of the bowl was going to kill people, after all, they didn't understand what Zhao Yan and the impeachment bowl were talking about, thinking that it was Zhao Yan's words that angered the impeachment of the bowl, but soon they appeared, and the anger of the impeachment bowl was not directed at Zhao Yan and them, which made the big plate tooth relax.
"The Western Xia people have always bullied the weak and feared the hard, and your Wanyan forces are weak, so their envoys dared to beat your brothers wantonly, and when the Liao officials came to deal with it, instead of punishing the officials of the Western Xia, they also drove out quite a thorn Shu." Zhao Yan took the opportunity to fan the flames at this time, and said that the more the Jurchens hated the Khitans, the more beneficial it would be to the Great Song Dynasty.
However, the impeachment of Libo is a very rational person, he quickly calmed down, and then looked at Zhao Yan and motioned for him to continue, which made Zhao Yan a little disappointed, and then said: "For this kind of thing, our Great Song Dynasty is not easy to interfere with, we can only watch Quite Thorn Shu being kicked out of the birthday banquet, but just when I was about to leave the hall, I just stepped on this bracelet, so I picked it up, found quite Thorn Shu outside the hall, and planned to return this bracelet to him, but what I didn't expect was that Quite Thorn Shu actually asked me for one thing!" β
The things before picking up the bracelet are true, but the rest is all made up by Zhao Yan, anyway, that thorny Shu is likely to have died in the chaos, and what he says is what he says, and this kind of truth is mixed with lies to make people believe it more.
"Oh? We, the Jurchens, are separated from you by the Great Song Dynasty in the entire Liao Kingdom, what can I ask you for? At this time, the impeachment bowl spoke again with some skepticism.
Regarding the question of impeachment, Zhao Yan deliberately looked around, and the impeachment of Libo immediately understood, and then came to the other side of the lake alone with Zhao Yan, so that Da Banya and Su Shi could not hear their conversation, and then Zhao Yan spoke again: "Speaking of which, Thorn Shu is also a very far-sighted person, he actually asked our Great Song Dynasty to assist you Jurchen, and in exchange, you Jurchen will harass Liao in the north, so that Liao has to station a large number of troops in the north, so as to reduce the border pressure of our Great Song Dynasty." β
Hearing this, he only felt a "boom" in the whole person's head, and he couldn't react for a long time, he never expected that Quite Thorn Shu would make such a request to the Great Song Dynasty, but after thinking about it carefully, he also felt that this was a good thing, the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State were also open and secretly fighting, and these Jurchens hated the Liao State even more, and the Song State was rich and rich, if they could really help them Jurchen with some money and materials, it would definitely increase the strength of their Wanyan Department, So as to speed up the pace of unification of the Jurchens.
Zhao Yan, who was standing next to him, saw the change in the expression on his face, especially when he finally showed a moving expression, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a sneer that he didn't notice, in his opinion, although the Liao State is a big enemy, it is already going downhill, and there is nothing to be afraid of, but the rising Jurchens are the mortal enemies of their Great Song Dynasty, and he is now forced by the shape shì, so he said something to help the Jurchens, but when he returns to the Great Song Dynasty safely, I am afraid that he will immediately turn his face and deny people, He would even stab this matter to the Liao State and exacerbate the conflict between the Liao State and the Jurchens.
Although the impeachment of Libo was shrewd, where would he have thought that Zhao Yan knew the history of the rise of the Jurchens in advance, and he had long been ill-intentioned towards them? Even he seriously considered the possibility of the Great Song Dynasty aiding the Jurchens and the benefits that their Jurchens could get from it, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was very beneficial to them. Of course, there are some drawbacks, that is, it may increase the conflict with the Liao State, but their Jurchen people have been fighting with the Liao State from time to time, and every few years there are some Jurchen tribes who can't bear the oppression and rebellion of the Liao State, so this disadvantage is nothing to their Jurchens.
"Your Royal Highness, is your Great Song really willing to help us complete the Yan Department?" Impeachment finally calmed down, and then confirmed to Zhao Yan again, and this time it was the first time he called Zhao Yan the king of the county.
"This ......" Zhao Yan knew that if he nodded and agreed without hesitation at this time, it would be too hasty, and he, the king of the county, had no right to decide this kind of thing, so in order to make the impeachment of Li Bo more convinced, I saw that after he pondered for a while, he said sincerely, "I was also very shocked when I heard this request made by Quite Thorn Shu that day, but I think this is a good idea, after all, our Great Song Dynasty also suffers from the Liao army fighting grass valley every year, so I naturally hope to reduce some military pressure, However, I am only a county king, and I have no right to decide this kind of thing, so at that time, I could only sue SΓΉ quite Thorn Shu, and I had to discuss it with my eldest brother King Ying, and he also gave me this bracelet when I parted, but I didn't expect that Yelu Chongyuan would have a rebellion the next day, and I couldn't find quite Thorn Shu in the chaos, otherwise I could have brought him out. β
Hearing Zhao Yan's answer so cautious, his tone was also very sincere, which made Impeachment Libo more convinced of the authenticity of this matter, and his attitude towards Zhao Yan was much better at the moment, but he was a smart person, and he also had the characteristics common to smart people, that is, his suspicion was relatively serious, so he didn't fully believe in Zhao Yan's identity and the previous words in his heart.
It is precisely because he did not fully believe Zhao Yan's words, so after thinking about it for a while, he said to Zhao Yan at the moment: "His Royal Highness the King of the County, if the Great Song Dynasty can help us Wanyan Ministry, it is naturally impossible to ask for it, but I am not alone in Wanyan Ministry, so I also ask the King of the County to accompany me on the next trip to the tribe, and after I have persuaded the other people of the tribe, I will discuss the matter of assistance with the King of the County." β
Zhao Yan also nodded in agreement immediately when he heard this, he knew that what he said was just a pretext, the real reason was that he wanted to use this time to confirm his identity, as well as the truth of those previous words, but Zhao Yan was also full of confidence in this, except for the truth or falsehood of his own discussion with Po Thorn Shu to help the girl, the other words were originally true, and it was not a secret that he went to Liao, plus he disappeared in the palace, whether it was Liao or the Great Song Dynasty, he would definitely send people to look for it with all his might, Therefore, the impeachment of Libo should soon believe his identity, and as long as his identity is confirmed, coupled with the lies he has fabricated, then the impeachment of Libo will not only not be unfavorable to him, but will also treat him as a Jurchen guest.
Next, Zhao Yan and Impeachment came to the cave together, Su Shi and they were extremely surprised when they saw the two of them talking and laughing back, but Zhao Yan did not open his mouth to explain, but at this time, Impeachment and Bowl looked at the beautiful Yelusi, and then smiled at Zhao Yan and said: "Your Royal Highness the King of the County, you and Deputy Envoy Su are both extraordinary, but I don't know who this woman is, and why is she with the King of the County?"
