In the next few days, there was a big wedding on Liangshan. It turned out that under the mediation of Ximen Qing, Qin Ming and Lin Chong, the head of the leopard, married the two sisters of Linfu Shuangshu Zhe Meifeng and Zhe Meiluan. The sisters of the Zhe family came back to move troops, and by chance, they were nostalgic for each other with Qin Ming and Lin Chong, and of course Ximenqing was willing to become the beauty of others.

The heroines and heroes complement each other, and it is naturally easy for Ximenqing's Xie Media to receive money. At the wedding banquet, Kan Wanlin brought the wine jar to pour Qin Minglin Chong, but he didn't want to be drunk by the two of them.

In addition to the celebration, Ximenqing and Wanyan Zongyong also had some informal meetings and consultations with Yelu Yujian, and the two envoys could not infer their movements from Ximenqing's words and deeds, and they were both worried.

Wanyan Sect is better, after all, he has the old face in the past, so he only disguises himself as a tragic character who endures humiliation and burden, and does not hesitate to sell himself to the Jin Kingdom to break Liao, which can always confuse the perception of many people, so as to gain a large area of sympathy and support; Yelu Yu saw that he was not so lucky, although the Liao State and the old Song Dynasty had a century-old alliance, but during the undercurrent was turbulent, the Cold War continued, and the Liao State also supported the Western Xia to make trouble in the west of the Song Dynasty, not to mention the world grudge of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. Yelu Yu saw that he was an envoy, so the people around him were polite to him, but if he couldn't form an alliance, this politeness would eventually disappear.

If the Liao State wants to fight against the Jurchens, it cannot have any worries, so the attitude of the Ximen Qing Chinese Federation is very important. Yelu Yu saw that the diplomatic situation was unfavorable to his side, and couldn't help but feel anxious, but thought: "In Ximenqing's words, he didn't intend to fight with my Da Liao, but he said it vaguely and hazy, and the drunkard's intention was to ask me to give him the land of Da Liao." However, my Daliao land is all won by my ancestors in a hundred battles, how can it be the size and people? If you cede the land and ask for an alliance and return to Shangjing, I will not see the soldiers and civilians waiting for the rest of my eyes, and I will never mention this matter again - but what is there any way to reverse the decline? ”

Thinking about it, he was hesitant for a while, and Yelu was depressed.

Wanyan Zongyong is just the opposite, he has been pretending to be a fool of many people who don't know the truth these days, and the mass foundation of Lianjin Keliao is becoming more and more solid. Wanyan Zongyong asked Ximenqing to hold a round table meeting, Ximenqing only pushed people unevenly, Wanyan Zongyong was not in a hurry, but secretly sneered: "Let's see how long you can push!" ”

Two days later, several groups of people and carriages came to Juye City one after another, and they were all handpicked by Ximenqing and rushed back to participate in the discussion. It was a matter of diplomatic relations, and these people did not care about picking up the wind and washing the dust, and immediately participated in the convening of the first plenary meeting of the Chinese Federation.

Ximen Qing took precautions and characterized this meeting as a military meeting. Different from political and civil affairs, as soon as the relationship between the Chinese Federation and the Liao State and the Jin State entered the military category, the parliament could only advise on the opinions of the people, but had no right to vote, and the generals were responsible for making decisions on military matters, so as not to argue together. Ximenqing's move, while supporting the growth of new things, also made himself invincible.

At the beginning of the conference, the most stress-free were Duan Heyu, the representative senator of Dali, and the representative senator of Tubo, an old chief of the Tubo tribal alliance. The Jin Kingdom of Liao, from ancient times to the present, is very far away from them, so they don't take it seriously at all, as long as Ximen Qing makes a decision, they raise their hands and agree.

The senators of Mingjiao are headed by Kan Yue and Kan Lotte, the left envoys of Guangming. Fang La, the head of the Ming Sect, is bent on being a "holy father", in the south of the Yangtze River or to set up a academy, or to build a Zoroastrian building, the life is very fulfilling, the teaching should be a major event, the north returns to Kan Yue, the south belongs to Shibao, Fang La himself is happy to be the shopkeeper, just teaching and educating people.

The local people's representatives are composed of Yu Van Xuzhong, Ma Shen, Ruan Mingchuan and others. These ** have all served as officials in the old Song Dynasty, and they are inextricably linked with the local village gentry and ordinary people, and they represent the most basic opinions from the bottom.

The representative of the border is Hebei Liang Zhongshu. The four towns of Hebei where he was stationed were the forefront of the defense of the Liao State, and the achievement of the covenant between the Liao and Jin and the Chinese Federation this time was, of course, based on his opinions and suggestions.

The rest are the generals of the military department - the former general Thunderbolt Qin Ming, the left general Dadao Guan Sheng, the right general Leopard Head Lin Chong, the rear general Hu Yanzhuo, the hussar general Dong Ping, the naval general Ruan Xiaoer, and the head of the three armies, Yu Qilin Lu Junyi......

When the Chinese Federation was founded, there was no large-scale reward for meritorious heroes, and everyone became a high-ranking official together. Because Ximen Qing burned incense to worship the queen of heaven, he said to everyone very sadly: "Heaven shows that the new country and new atmosphere should be different from the old dynasty." If you are stingy, you will be an official, and if you add an official, you will know respect; Only those who really contribute to the common people in the world are eligible to be knighted, and the brothers have a long way to go! Speaking of which, I'm sorry brothers, you followed me from birth to death, and now that you have put an end to the corrupt Song, but you are limited to the will of heaven, and you don't even have a name, which really makes me unbearable......

When the heroes of Liangshan saw that Ximenqing looked like he was about to beat his chest and vomit blood, they wanted to comfort him in turn. It is said that the will of heaven is like this, how can Brother Siquan be blamed? Besides, most of us are bandits and robbers, and we don't look like the prince when we wear dragon robes, so how cumbersome it is to manage the affairs of the world, let's leave it to those full-time talents! Our brothers are also lazy and enjoy the blessings.

Ximenqing hurriedly thanked him, and it was rare for the brothers to have a high wind and bright festival, and I was very comforted. However, the official can be without, but the benefits will never be less! Ximen Qing then made a lot of gold and silver treasures, all of which were the dividends accumulated from the commercial development of Liangshan over the years. Holding the real money in their arms, everyone laughed from ear to ear, and they all felt that even if there was no official to do it, it was actually not a big deal.

Therefore, although there are many leaders in Liangshan, most of them are still in the subordinate after conquering the country, at most they are in the Hall of Ancestors who commemorate the martyrs on Liangshan, and a position is booked, and after a hundred years in the future, their spirit cards will be settled in - this is the only privilege of these founding heroes.

However, there are still a few people who have to occupy high positions, a number of senior generals in the army, others such as the blue-eyed tiger Li Yun is the minister of construction, the god operator Jiang Jing is the minister of commerce, the nine-tailed turtle Tao Zongwang is the minister of agriculture, the divine doctor An Daoquan is the minister of health, the iron-faced face Pei Xuan is the minister of justice, and the mourning god Bao Xu is the president of the Supreme Court, etc...... Of course, being in a high position in the Chinese Federation is not a good thing, in An Daoquan's self-deprecating words: "Everyone must take care of their wives, relatives, and clan children, in case any of them can't hold it and suffer corruption, the Ministry of Justice will kill their relatives in righteousness!" ”

Ximen Qing also smiled and said: "Brothers be cautious, you are all rich now, people's hearts must be exhausted, and children and grandchildren must be educated." I hope that when the brothers meet every year, they will be reunited forever, and they will be halfway through the recess. ”

Therefore, from the beginning of the founding of the new country, it was extremely vigorous. This time the topic was the joint congress of Liaojin-Jin relations, and the delegates sat there, all of them looked dignified, all because the system guided people to be right, and their hearts were free of dregs, so they naturally got rid of all the appearance of birds and beasts. Yelu Yu and Wanyan Zong saw it clearly from a distance, and they were all secretly shocked in their hearts: "With such a weather, where can my country catch it?" ”

The prosperity of neighboring countries and the worries of their own countries, Yelu Yujian and Wanyan Zongyong both felt deeply worried in their hearts, which deepened the heart of not being an enemy and only an alliance with the Chinese Federation.

But when a bell rang, the main door of the conference hall slowly closed, cutting off the snooping eyes of Yelu Yu and Wanyan Sect.

Ximenqing presided over the meeting, still carrying the big wooden hammer on the rostrum, this is still the old thing from the Liangshan round table, the representatives of Liangshan in the seat looked at it, they were full of emotion, as if they were in another world - who would have thought that the bandits and wild robbers of the year also had a day when the golden scales turned into dragons?

Sitting down on the rostrum, Ximen Qingmu hammer tapped the table and said loudly: "I think back then, so the Song Dynasty was between Qiangliao and Xixia, swallowing his anger and paying the New Year's coin, which was like a wreck; Today, I, the Chinese Federation, have straightened my waist again, and I am fierce in the Central Plains, looking at strong enemies, Western Xia and Liao, who dares to look at me again? Whether it is fair trade or sending envoys to sue for peace, all the people of the Chinese Federation are proud - this is a new country governed by the people under the unity of the people! Delegates, applaud our new nation! ”

For a while, the applause was thunderous, and many people's eyes were filled with tears. The elevation of the status of the country, which they have witnessed with their own eyes, has now become a reality. Looking back on the past and the present, a sense of national pride and identity arises spontaneously.

After a long time, the applause stopped. Ximen Qing said again: "Today, there are Liao and Jin envoys coming separately and will be in Juye City of our Chinese Federation. The Liao State and the Jin State have become mortal enemies, and they all want to destroy the enemy and are willing, and in order to seek diplomatic strength, both countries want to befriend our Chinese Federation, thinking that Austria is aiding. Today, is it good for our Chinese Federation to form an alliance with Liao? Or is it better to ally with Kim? I would like to ask delegates to give it their thoughts. ”

Before the words fell, a person had already stood up with his arms folded and said loudly: "Ximen Fuhrer, there is a word to say below!" ”

Ximen Qing saw that the speaker was Ma Shenma Shizhong. This Mr. Ma is a native of Dongping Mansion, once worked as a petty official in the Song Dynasty, and later studied with Cheng Yi, a master of science, and had a good relationship with Lu Junyi, and was an unscrupulous gentleman who had the courage to do righteousness. After the establishment of the new country, Ximen Qing invited him to go out of the mountain to supervise the gains and losses of the officials and governments of Shandong Zhulu.

Seeing that it was Ma Shen who wanted to make the first macro statement, Ximen Qing got up and hugged his fists and saluted: "Mr. Ma has something to say, please say." ”

Ma Shen didn't speak, but he was already crying - the man didn't flick his tears, but he didn't reach the sad place, and under this tear, the hall was full of shock. This is exactly what it is:

Only for the new country to open a new system, there is a true Confucianism to spit out the truth. But I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.
