Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, the Zhe family has taken root in Sanfu, and it has been more than 200 years, after five generations of troubled times and Zhao Qi.

For such a long time, Sanfu has long been operated into an iron bucket.

The more than 30,000 soldiers are equivalent to the private soldiers of the broken family.

If you want to completely uproot the Zhe family at once, you will inevitably leave a hole, which is not what Han Zhen wants to see.

To do things clearly, Han Zhen can fold in half and ask for unscrupulous pressure, but when dealing with the military and civilians of the three prefectures, he must use the means of spring breeze and rain.

Give the soldiers and civilians of the three provinces a period of time to adapt, and then send a henchman as a deputy general to slowly divide and win over.

Now that it has fallen, the remaining powerful gentry can't afford to stir up any storms, so they can slowly figure it out.

The matter was settled, and the atmosphere in the study became extraordinarily relaxed.

Zhe Keqiu complained to Han Zhen, counting the children of the Zhe family who died on the battlefield over the years, and when it came to emotion, he burst into tears.

Han Zhen's eyes were also filled with tears, and he immediately pursued the father of Zheke, who was able to ask for it, and acted as the Duke of Dingguo, and was called Zhongwu.

Fold can ask for a big bow immediately, and the tears of emotion are falling.

After all, Zhao Song's posthumous title for his father was only a military envoy of the Wu'an Army.

For a while, there were a lot of gentlemen and ministers in the study, and they all talked about it.

At noon, Han Zhen set up a banquet in the marshal's mansion, and invited the father and son.

A feast, eat until sunset, the guests and hosts are happy.

Stepping on the afterglow of the sunset, Zhi Keqiu got drunk and left the marshal's mansion, and with the support of Zhi Yanwen, he got into the carriage and drove to the pavilion.

After entering the pavilion, Zhi Keqiu swept away his previous drunken appearance, his eyes were clear, and he took the hot towel in Zhi Yanwen's hand and put it on his face.

Seeing this, Zhi Yanwen was stunned: "Father, are you not drunk?" ”

Zhe Keqiu sighed, and said quietly: "How dare you get drunk for your father, the so-called companion is like a tiger, and a wrong word may lead to death." ”

"I didn't expect Your Majesty to be so domineering."

Recalling that in the study, when Han Zhen stared at his father and son with anger all over his body, Zhi Yanwen couldn't help but shudder.

It was like facing a tiger coming down the mountain, and it was difficult to breathe.

"Back then, when Song Taizu ascended the throne, he treated our Zhe family with great courtesy, and personally guaranteed that the Zhe family could be hereditary in the land of Sanfu......"

"Shut up!"

You can ask for a burst of applause.

Zhi Yanwen also realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly shut his mouth.

Zhe Keqiu glanced at the closed door and continued to teach: "Bastard, after drinking a few cups of horse urine, don't you know what your last name is?" After returning to Fuzhou, he immediately packed his bags and went to Bianjing City to study in Guozijian. If you dare to come back, I'll break your legs! ”

"The father scolded the child for a momentary gaffe."

Zhi Yanwen understood what his father meant, and hurriedly apologized.

took the tea handed by Zhi Yanwen, Zhi Keqiu took a sip, and said softly: "The official family is the world that will be won immediately, and they are full of confidence." ”

The reason why the contrast is so strong is because Song Taizu came to the world by coup d'état, and he lacked confidence, so he could only appease and recruit them as feudal forces.

But today's official family is different, the world is beaten with a knife and a gun, punching Zhao Song and kicking Jin Guo, and even the Western Xia, who is silent, will be slapped twice.

In this case, where is it necessary to recruit and appease the gate lords of the feudal towns.

If you descend, you can live, and if you don't, you will die.

Simple and crude!

……

I stayed overnight at the pavilion, and early the next morning, I went to the Marshal's Mansion to ask for my resignation.

Subsequently, he led Zhi Yanwen to hurry back to Fuzhou.

He wants to go back and seize the time to deal with the aftermath, the Zhe family has been operating in Sanfu for so long, and the forces and relationships are intertwined, and it is not something that can be sorted out in a day or two.

It is many times better for him to do it himself than to wait until His Majesty does it.

After solving the matter of breaking the family, Han Zhen did not stay in Taiyuan for long, and led the army to Yan'an Mansion.

When the spies planted at the border in Xixia learned the news, they immediately hurried and sent them back to Xingqing Mansion.

Li Qianshun was taken aback by this news and immediately convened a meeting of the ministers under his command.

Brother Richard asked, "Your Majesty hastily summoned the ministers, what is the so-called matter?" ”

"The Emperor of Qi is here!"

As soon as the words fell, the expressions of the ministers of civil and military affairs changed.

Zhe Keqiu is right, the Northern Expedition of Qi really scared many people, including the Western Xia Emperor and his ministers.

In just two months, they took down the Xijing Road guarded by Yan Zonghan, which shocked them.

If this is an attack on Western Xia, will they be able to stop it?

At first, Li Qianshun was still full of confidence, and asked Brother Li Cha to command 50,000 troops, preparing to take over the Tiande Army, Yunnei, and Dongsheng Prefecture.

As a result, as soon as Richard left on the front foot, the battle report in the cloud of the back foot came.

Shocked, Li Qianshun hurriedly called Brother Richard, who had not yet walked out of Xingqing Mansion, back.

Li Liangfu's face was terrified: "Could it be that Qi Guo wants to do something to my Great Xia?" ”

In that battle a few years ago, he was frightened by Wanyan Lou's room of 1,000 to 30,000.

Now, there is someone more ruthless than Wan Yan Lou's room, which makes him not afraid.

As soon as these words came out, Li Qianshun's eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of panic.

Cao Jie groaned: "The minister thinks that the emperor of Qi should not come to my Great Xia for this trip. ”

"Why?"

Li Qianshun hurriedly asked.

Cao Jie explained: "My Great Xia, Qi State, and Great Stone Linya just signed an agreement and formed an alliance not long ago, how can Qi State do anything to my Great Xia? If war is not declared, the division is nameless, and it is morally untenable. ”

"Not bad."

Brother Richard on the side nodded and echoed: "Besides, if the Qi State wants to do something to my Great Xia, there is no need for the Emperor of the Qi State to come to Yan'an Mansion at all, as early as the Xijing Road, it is better to enter from Dongshengzhou." In this way, it will be able to fight with the western army from the north and south, so why do you want to come to Yan'an Mansion with great fanfare. ”

One was politically analytical, the other tactical, but they came to the same conclusion.

Li Qianshun thought about it carefully and felt that it made sense, so he made up his mind: "The two Aiqing are reasonable. ”

Cao Jie pondered: "The Emperor of Qi should be here to inspect the Northwest Five Roads, after all, the Northwest Five Roads have newly descended, and they always need to come and take a look, and by the way, they will deter my Great Xia." ”

Li Qianshun said in a deep voice: "Having said that, I have to guard against it." ”

At this moment, Li Liangfu proposed: "Your Majesty might as well send an envoy to Yan'an Mansion to call the ministers and pay tribute, so that the two countries can make peace." ”

Western Xia has extremely rich experience in being a minister, and he does not shy away from it.

Because, whether it was a vassal to the Liao State, the Song State or the Jin State, they all got enough benefits from it.

Liao is a good big brother, who saved Western Xia from danger several times, and every time he paid tribute, he would give several times the reward.

Not to mention the Song Kingdom, the annual New Year's coins are given in an uproar.

The most searched is the Jin State, but even so, the Western Xia also fished a large area of land north of Xiazhai, south of Yinshan, and west of Tulubo in the Yimur Yerabu from the Jin State.

Therefore, now to be a vassal to the Qi State, it can be said that there is no psychological burden.

This is the way of the founding of the Western Xia, left and right, and interests first.

Because of this, it is clear that the country is the smallest and the weakest, but it can survive the three major countries of Liao, Song, and Jin one after another.

Seeing that everyone did not object, Li Liangfu was overjoyed, and continued: "The Central Plains Dynasty likes this set, so that Your Majesty can logically mention the matter of ceding the Tiande Army, Yunnei and Dongsheng Sanzhou." ”

"Yes."

Cao Jie nodded.

"The minister seconded the proposal."

Richard agreed.

Previously, due to the prestige of the great victory of the Qi State, they did not dare to take the initiative to mention the matter of the three states ceded to them, but if they were to pay tribute, it would be a good opportunity.

Moreover, since they are all vassals of Qi State, as the eldest brother, the emperor of Qi State always has to say something, so it is not good to refuse to cede the three states.

Thinking of this, Li Qianshun glanced at Li Liangfu appreciatively, and said happily: "Yes, this plan is very wonderful!" ”

After reaching an agreement, Li Qianshun immediately wrote down a table of reductions.

He had already written a copy of this kind of thing, and he had it at his fingertips at the moment.

Soon, he wrote a table of descent, took out a few carts of gold, silver and jewelry from the palace, and asked Cao Jie to rush to Yan'an Mansion with the national letter and gold and silver jewelry.
