964: You brag!
After several conversations, the Liao officials consulted again, and finally decided to let only three members of the mission enter.
Cao Xi pointed to the civil official and Qin Wei in the team: "You two follow someone in." ”
"Yes." About to see Yelu Zongzhen, Qin Wei was a little curious, there were fierce sergeants on the side all the way, looking at Song Rendi's eyes were more provocative.
Qin Wei knew that this was the sequelae of Liu Rushi's killing of the Liao people, and the knife outside the Bianliang Imperial City made the Liao people terrified, it turned out that Han'er also had such a brave civil official?
Now it is the home field of the Liao army, and they naturally want to provoke. They hoped that someone among the Song people would stand up and respond at this moment, and then kill this person.
The main hall was not luxuriously furnished, but when Yelu Zongzhen sat in the middle and there were two rows of civil and military officials standing below, an aura called Wang Ba Qi emanated.
"Your Majesty, the Song people sent an envoy, and the envoy from Yanmen is Cao Xi, the Duke of Yingguo, the son of Cao Bin, the founding general of the Song Dynasty."
"Cao Xi?" Yelu Zong said coldly: "I remember that Cao Bin, it was he who swept the Later Han Dynasty and the Southern Tang Dynasty back then, helped the Great Song Dynasty unify the Central Plains, and was a brave general. "If you can be called a brave general by the emperor, then this person must have great ability.
Yelu Zongzhen was silent for a while and said: "Since he is the son of Cao Bin, he is by no means an incompetent and mediocre person, tell the following, let them write carefully." The official who came to pay the obeisance immediately turned around and said, "Your Majesty has an order, don't be too polite to the Song people." ”
"I've been looking forward to it, I want to see Zhao Zhen's boldness, and now he sent Cao Xi, although it can be regarded as an attitude, but it disappointed me." Yeluzong really looked at the ministers with lacquer-like eyes, and said mockingly: "If he sends Pang Ji or Lu Yijian, I will praise him for his courage, but Cao Xi ...... Do the Song people want to use the residual power of those generals to deter me Da Liao? "If those people were still alive, the Liao people might be afraid, but now that they are dead, what are the Liao people afraid of.
Someone said: "In this way, the ministers will negotiate with Cao Xi later, and Your Majesty can only watch from the sidelines." Later, Cao Xi and the three of them were brought in.
After saluting, Yelu Zongzhen picked up a book and looked at it carefully, ignoring it at all, this was the emperor's cold reception, which tested the envoy's strategy.
"Dare to ask Your Majesty, what is the intention of the Liao State to send troops to Shuozhou?" Cao Xi asked with his head held high, very imposing, but Yelu Zongzhen still didn't raise his eyelids.
An official on the side said lightly: "Hunting!" Cao Xi said: "This ice and snow, hunting? "You have to talk about whether your IQ is good or not, your reason is so bad that you can't even fool a three-year-old child.
The official said lightly: "My Majesty is willing!" The territory of Daliao is vast, and the territory is at your disposal, as long as Your Majesty is willing, it is a hunting ground. This is extremely domineering.
Cao Yu said coldly: "I don't care where I go, I don't care, I'm just not afraid of being frozen to death?" Qin Wei couldn't help but want to laugh on the side, but the civil officials who were traveling with him were a little anxious, he was worried that Cao Xi would provoke Yelu Zongzhen, but Yelu Zongzhen glanced at Cao Xi and shook his head slightly, feeling that this kind of agitation method was useless to him.
And because of this, he lowered his opinion of Cao Xi. This is just a useless fool, and the little deterrent power of the ancestors has long been consumed by their drunken gold fans.
Then he thought of his titular wife, Xiao Bodhisattva. She was a gentle but resolute woman, but she lacked a little domineering and ambition.
But it's better than being ambitious, otherwise you'll really be an empty shelf as an emperor.
"How many troops did your Song Emperor send?" An official asked.
"An army of millions, you can't see the edge at a glance. The breath of the war horse covered the sky, and the footsteps of the soldiers shook the heavens and the earth...... Heaven and earth change color. Cao Xi began to run the train with his mouth full, lying so much that he believed it, but no one would believe it.
If there really were a million troops heading north, the grain and grass alone would be able to collapse Yan Shu. You're bragging!
"Is this going to be a decisive battle with Da Liao?"
"Yes." Cao Xi didn't give an inch, and he was quite stunned.
"The cowardly Song people, do they dare to compete with Da Liao? Have you forgotten the beggar league in the city? Have you forgotten how Zhao Heng Lao'er trembled! ”
"Haha!" The officials on both sides laughed, and they all smiled, and threw an approving look at the official.
"Fuzhou!" Cao Xi said word by word: "There is also Hejian Mansion...... Have you forgotten it too? Did you forget the 10,000-person Jingguan in front of the boundary monument? Have you forgotten your dead comrades? "Damn!
It was as if the officials had been choked, and the laughter of the Liao people stopped. Someone couldn't see the arrogance of the Song people, so they sneered: "You just wait for a sneak attack, otherwise, the army of Da Liao is here at this moment, do you dare to come to fight?" That's a very good thing to say, but it's also shameless.
Cao Xi sneered disdainfully: "It's freezing this day, so many armies are hoarded here, and they have to consume a lot of money and food every day, right?" Is Liao rich in the country? "The officials in charge of spending by the Liao people are going crazy, so much money and food are consumed, you Yeluzong is really chic, but what you leave behind is a mess of bad debts.
The Liao State is not as poor as the Great Song Dynasty, it is really poor. Most of these tribes from the grassland still retain the fine tradition of eating enough today and talking about it tomorrow, coupled with the backwardness of culture and commerce, they naturally have no money.
Yelu Zongzhen raised his head and said coldly: "Sharp teeth, is this the power of the Song people?" I remember someone saying that...... The powerful are not allowed to interfere in politics, and the cup of wine surnamed Zhao was released from the military power...... And today? Why is that? Could it be that all the officials of the Song people are dead? These words were sharp, and Cao Xi was not easy to answer.
The faces of the civil officials who were traveling with him changed, and they were just about to say something to save face, but they only heard Cao Xi sneering: "The officials of the Great Song Dynasty are busy governing the world for Your Majesty, that is, we people have nothing to do, so we will be sent as an envoy...... Gee! He looked at the Liao officials on the left and right, and sighed: "So many officials are here...... Doesn't the Liao State need to be governed? Or that with the queen mother of your country, Your Majesty will be able to be the Emperor of Taiping...... "The biggest insult to the emperor is these four words - Emperor Taiping!"
That emperor doesn't want to rule martial arts, which emperor doesn't want to overshadow the merits of a thousand people. What is the Taiping Emperor, it is better to say that he is a good life who will be reincarnated......
"Presumptuous!" Yelu Zong said coldly: "I just killed you, forgive him Zhao Zhen and don't dare to do anything, can you trust it?" "The structure of the Liao State is learning from the Central Plains, and even the title is changing from the Central Plains.
But in the vast grassland, those tribes are constantly multiplying, although they are mainly Liao people, but this is only a loose alliance, once something is wrong, it may turn their faces at any time.
Yelu Zong really had to increase the taxes of these tribes in order to suppress their growth, so the rebellion on the grassland was endless, although the scale was not large, but it also sounded the alarm for the Liao people.
Cao Xi uncovered Yeluzong's real scars at once, so that he had to face up to this Cao Guogong. Cao Xi was instantly excited, making people inexplicably excited: "If that's the case, just do it!" Everyone was speechless and looked at this Cao Guogong in amazement.
Everyone is a well-informed old fox, but such a messenger who takes the initiative to seek death has really never seen it, look at his excitement, even the corners of his eyes are trembling, it can be seen that it is true.
In the face of this kind of hob meat, even Yelu Zongzhen had no choice, he waved his hand and said: "The envoy is rude, drive away, and immediately prepare to attack." After saying that, Yelu Zongzhen picked up the book again.
"Go back!" No one rushed, Cao Xi turned around and went out in a majestic manner, this trip was to provoke Yelu Zongzhen and let the Liao people attack the dangerous Yanmen.
Qin Wei had been observing Yelu Zongzhen, and seeing that his hand touching the scroll was still stable, he had a number in his heart.
"Let's go!" Some people began to drive away the Song people, hoping to kill them on the spot. Qin Wei also walked out, and then suddenly turned around and smiled at Yelu Zongzhen, and said, "That...... Let's go! See you later. Yelu Zong really felt that this was not right to hear this.
He looked up, and it was just Qin Wei who was smiling and arching his hand.
"Who are you?" A six-grade civil official of the Song Dynasty, and he looks the same age as himself, and he is less than twenty-five or sixteen at long, it is extremely rare to have such a status at this age.
And he didn't seem to be timid at all, and even laughed. Even Cao Xi looked serious at the moment, worried that he wouldn't be able to go back, but this person was not afraid?
Yelu Zong really thought about the recent young handsome man on the Song people's side, and it seemed that he didn't find anyone who was of this age.
Qin Wei was stunned and said with a smile: "The foreign minister is smiling. "Laughing? What a weird name, what should it be, the Song people like to give themselves those bells and whistles.
Yelu Zong said lightly: "The name is good. Qin Wei walked out of the hall with a smile and suddenly squatted down outside.
"Let's go!" The official who sent them out looked at Qin Wei impatiently, and when he saw that his shoes were taken off, he said disdainfully: "The shoes have all fallen off, it can be seen that I am very scared, and I even pretend to be nothing...... Hehe! But Cao Xi knew that it was impossible for Qin Wei to make such a mistake, this thing was yin, so could he panic?
He didn't panic when he got rid of Zhang Shixun. How could you be frightened by a foreign emperor. So he subconsciously cooperated and said, "So-and-so's stomach hurts!" The official frowned and said, "There are no toilets here." He couldn't help but be happy.
I thought that Cao Xi was pulled out on the spot here, and Da Song's face was all gone, and Zhao Zhen had to clean him up when he went back, so His Majesty would definitely be happy.
He just paid attention to Cao Xi, and Qin Wei over there clasped the upper of the shoe with his right hand, pulled it hard, and the upper of the shoe opened up.
It turned out to be empty underneath. He took out a small object from underneath, then touched the outside, felt that it was warm, and put it under the window.
This is the great tent of the Chinese army of Yelu Zongzhen...... It should have been the house of a certain gentry family in the Great Song Dynasty, and later after Shuozhou was lost to the Liao, it became their place.
