For the love debts owed by the emperor in his early years, the queen and the three imperial concubines showed great tolerance and interest, one is that Zhao Ta is too small compared to other emperors in the harem, but it is only one queen and three concubines, and even the three palaces and six courtyards have not been filled, let alone seventy-two concubines. But the emperor is still immortal, constantly adding little mothers and younger siblings to the emperor, and several concubines with few heirs feel embarrassed and in crisis, after all, they are defeated because of the weakness of numbers.

Adding people to import has become the biggest concern of Zhao Ta's wives, they know that if the heirs of the royal family are not in vain, it is likely that the throne will eventually fall to his family, this kind of example has been staged several times in the Great Song Dynasty, but the emperor has always refused to spit out and select show girls to enrich the harem. The old lover has now come to the door, of course they can't let it go, and after some persuasion, the emperor pushed the boat down.

In the past, the biggest obstacle was the rule of 'no marriage with the same surname', but now that Zhao Tan is the emperor, everything is up to him, and a holy decree cancels the national surname given to the Western Xia royal family, restores the original surname, and makes the marriage logical. Although the ministers also have a lot of complaints about the emperor's sloppiness, how can they marry a foreign woman as a concubine, and they will not mess up the bloodline in the future, but think that there is already a Khitan princess in the palace, why should they care about having another party and county lord.

Zhao Ta can't say what she feels like in her heart now, people have sent the dowry to her more than ten years ago, and she is the first to occupy the place. Those dowries also helped him a lot at that time, and he was short of funds, and he got through the difficulties. What made him unhappy was that he married her and became a country of sons-in-law with Xixia, and he couldn't just beat his father-in-law as soon as he was hot in the bed, which made him want to punish Xixia's plan to put it aside for the time being.

The happiest in this marriage is, of course, Brother Cha. He also changed from a Chinese New Year envoy to a family envoy. A marriage eased tensions between the Song and Xia countries, not to mention that they also benefited a lot. At least in the countries their status has improved a lot, and the payment of annual coins has been exempted. The further opening of the market was beneficial to the deteriorating economy of Western Xia.

Moreover, the Great Song Dynasty will help those irrelevant countries, and the old man's family will definitely not stand idly by when something happens, and he invisibly leaned on a big tree and got a protective umbrella. But the Western Xia will also be subject to certain constraints in the future, and will no longer be able to have a relationship with Jin Guomei, and from now on, he will follow the Great Song Dynasty wholeheartedly, and the things that benefit both sides can no longer be done. But this is nothing compared to being interfered in internal affairs by the Great Song Dynasty as the suzerainty at any time, but it is more convenient to get involved in the name of Zhao Ta who can still handle family affairs in the future......

…………

The Great Song Dynasty wanted to make peace with Western Xia. And the news of marrying an 'old' princess who has been married for many years quickly spread in the circle of envoys of various countries, and fools can now see the benefits of marrying a family with the Great Song Dynasty, so they have submitted their credentials and applied to be married to the Great Song Dynasty, and they have introduced the old ladies who are married in the country to Zhao Ta, which makes his brain hurt, is there such a mother who buries people? I don't run a nursing home, although Li Xiaoxiao is older, but when people are still in the prime of their lives, they got along with themselves, which can be the same thing!

"Your Majesty. The servant of the Ministry of Justice, Ma Kuo, asks to see! At this time, a small yellow door entered the temple to make a notice.

"No, he's almost an adult, and he sends these messy things every day!" Zhao Ta was annoyed, and heard that Ma Kuo was here again. Said angrily.

"Your Majesty, Lord Ma said that there is something important to report, and you must see your Majesty!" Xiao Huangmen looked at the folds that had been thrown to the ground. I secretly laughed in my heart that it was really not the right time for Master Ma to come, but I was afraid that I would delay things. I can only bite the bullet and say it again.

"Then you ask him, if it's still about kinship, you don't need to see it. Just refuse! Zhao Ta thought for a while and said, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu is almost in the age of antiquity, and almost all the things before and after this run have been handed over to Ma Kuo, and he will not ask to enter the temple to face the saint if it is not an important matter.

"See Your Majesty!" The effort was not great, and Xiao Huangmen led the horse into the hall, and he knew that he was in a bad mood when he saw the emperor's bitter face.

"If you have something, just say it!" Zhao Ta waved his hand to excuse him.

"Your Majesty, the matter of your concubine has been sent to the Quartet...... Ma Kuo's words were just halfway through his speech, and he saw the emperor's face sank, and hurriedly said, "All countries have said that they will send envoys to congratulate, but the Jin State actually wants to send a congratulatory envoy, because the two countries are in a wartime, and the ministers dare not make arbitrary decisions and ask Your Majesty to show them!" ”

"You told them?" Zhao Ta's heart moved, this is a new trend, and asked Ma Kudao.

"Your Majesty, as far as the minister knows, the Ministry of Rites has not sent an envoy to the Jin State to announce it!" Ma Kuo said.

"Well, I didn't know it from other countries, or it was sent back by the spies, and others won't be too troubled!" Zhao Ta thought for a while and said, all the ministries are now too busy to take care of the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, and it is not news that the Song and Jin countries sent spies to each other, since he pretended to play a dark Chen Cang on the southern tour, the Jin Kingdom has strengthened the monitoring of the Great Song Dynasty, especially about his movements, so it is not surprising that they know that they are going to get married, but what is surprising is why they also send envoys to congratulate, are they still afraid that they will have a fake marriage?

"The minister also thinks so, so are we allowed or not?" Ma Kuo asked.

"What do you think they mean?" Zhao Ta did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

"I think that the woman really wants to take the opportunity to show goodwill to my court and ease the relationship between the two sides, so as to survive!" Ma Kuo said.

Before it was temporarily unable to start a new war, the Great Song adopted a policy of containment against Jin. In terms of diplomacy, it either co-opts or coerces countries that have diplomatic relations with the Jin State, alienates the Jin State, cuts off economic and trade exchanges, and isolates the Jin State; Militarily, it tightly sealed its borders, cut off land and sea trade routes to Jin, and harassed and destroyed its production with small forces, further striking at its fragile economy. Although this trick is not as immediate as the use of force, it is also a secondary chronic poison.

"There is such a possibility, but I suspect that their drunkards do not mean to drink, they should know very well that now that we are in an advantageous position, it is impossible to relax the blockade on them if they refuse to return the Liao King!" Zhao said.

"Then what did the Jurchens send envoys for? Could it be that we want to make a false accusation, because we have severed all diplomatic ties with it, so we are obviously sending a congratulatory envoy, but in fact it is a peace envoy! Ma Kuo said.

"Well, that's true!" Zhao Ta nodded and said, "As the saying goes, 'if you are reasonable, you don't call the giver', Wan Yan Yan has been in contact with Sinology since he was a child, and after succeeding to the throne, he should understand this truth, so he came up with such a solution when we refused to make peace again!" ”

"Your Majesty, why did the Jurchens not hesitate to put down their bodies and contact us again?" Ma Kuo thought about it, and couldn't figure out what medicine was sold in the Jurchen gourd, the Jin State destroyed the Liao and Song Dynasty back then, forcing the Great Song Dynasty to be in the limelight, although it is now at a disadvantage, it is still a big country with a certain strength, not to the point of being cheeky to the Great Song Dynasty, this kind of behavior is really damaging the image of Jin's great power.

"If I'm not mistaken, after Zong Han's death, Zong Han gained power, and it was difficult for Wanyan to control the current situation, and he was facing the danger of being hollowed out, so he wanted to rebalance the strength of the two factions, and now the person who has enough weight is in my Great Song!" Zhao Ta pondered for a moment and said with a smile, this Wanyan is too tender and naïve, without the support of strong force, how can it be so easy to play with those guys who have been fighting in the court for half their lives, how many years have they struggled before they dare to sit in this position.

"Your Majesty is talking about Yan Xiyin!" Ma Kuo said in surprise.

"Well, he's okay!" Zhao Ta nodded.

"I heard that it's not bad, according to the order of His Majesty, he has been imprisoned in Yanjing Mansion, and he has been taken care of in life, and he is also very calm that in addition to eating and sleeping, he reads books!" Ma Kuo replied, but the doubts in his heart were not solved, "Since this person is important, why did Wanyan Yan only need Zongxuan in the first place, and abandon Wanyan Xiyin?" ”

"Wanyan Xiyin is not a simple person, he can lead the troops on the horse, and he can recite poetry when he gets off the horse, he is an all-rounder. Although he is not a member of Aguta's family, he has followed the four masters of the Jin Kingdom, and is the only remaining patriarch of the four dynasties in the court. Moreover, it has always advocated sinicization, and it was highly used in the Taizu and Taizong dynasties. Zhao Ta said, took a sip of tea, and analyzed.

"But he was abandoned because of the limited situation at that time, Wanyan Yan mainly relied on the strength of Zong Han and Zong Gan to ascend to the position, and in their hearts, Wanyan Xiyin's reputation was a dangerous person who threatened them, and it was difficult for them to use it; Then there is the old problem of the scholars, who boasts of being proficient in Han Confucianism, and of course he will be jealous of Xi Yin's talent and prestige, which leads to his misfortune! ”

"His Majesty's meaning is that Zong Han's death has made the two factions weigh each other's strengths, hindering his plan for reorganization, and Wan Yan wants to use Wan Yan Xiyin's prestige to strengthen the power of the restructuring!" Ma Kuo thought about it, and the emperor's analysis was very reasonable.

"Hmm!"

"Your Majesty, will we accept the request of the Jurchen envoy?"

"Of course, why not if someone sends money!" Zhao said with a smile.

"What if they ask for Yan Xiyin?" Ma Kuo thought about it, how could he refuse with the emperor's wealth obsession!

"Give it to him, we won't pay for his living expenses!" Zhao Ta replied dryly.

"Your Majesty, since Wanyan Xiyin is so important to him, isn't it hasty to return it to them so easily!" Ma Kuo looked at the emperor, he didn't look like he was sick, since he knew that his effect on the Jin Kingdom was still satisfying them, he was not crazy and dizzy... (To be continued......)
