Chapter 682: A Friendly Strategy
"Governor Cheng may not know the national policy of the imperial court in the local area, but now that the northern Jurchens have risen and established the Jin State, the Jurchens and the Khitans are incompatible mortal enemies, and the imperial court has set a national policy to join Jin to destroy Liao and recover Yanyun!"
Zhao Liangsi looked at Cheng Wanli with a smile and explained.
"This ...... What does this matter to me? ”
Cheng Wanli finally understood Tong Guan's purpose, no wonder he made a big mistake, Tong Guan not only blamed, but also promoted him, which required him to exchange his daughter for a future.
"The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, as an official of the imperial court, how can you stay out of the matter and let your daughter go to the Jin Kingdom to make peace, you are the number one hero of the destruction of Liao!"
Tong Guan looked at Cheng Wanli and said.
"Tong Xiang, the lower official position is low, how can the little girl take on this heavy responsibility!"
Cheng Wanli hurriedly refused, since ancient times, it has been a royal affair, and it is all a princess to make peace, and he is a seven-grade petty official, how can this be equal.
"Isn't this my goddaughter? Then his identity is different. ”
Tong Guan said with a smile, according to the normal diplomatic marriage, it is indeed necessary for the princess of the royal family to marry into a different race, but the Great Song Dynasty has not been with each other for a hundred years, even in the face of the Liao State, at most it is to give more coins, at this time, if you send a princess to the Jurchen, it doesn't mean that the Great Song Dynasty is weaker than the Jurchen Jin State!
The Jin Kingdom is only a small country just established by the Jurchen tribe, and this kind of barbarian is not a mature country at all, let alone qualified to marry the princess of the Great Song Dynasty.
But if you want to form an alliance, marriage is the easiest, the Jurchens have just established the Jin State, and they urgently need a status, and the Great Song Dynasty can just give him this status.
"Childlike ......"
Cheng Wanli wanted to refuse, but Tong Guan didn't want to listen to it at all.
"It's not early, let's go back, the holy decree will arrive in a few days, after the end of the test, you and Zhao Liangsi will serve as envoys and go to the Jurchen to send off relatives!"
Tong Guan waved his sleeves and gave an eviction order, and Lao Duguan took the guards and took Cheng Wanli out without saying anything.
"Master Cheng, grasp the great glory!"
The old man smiled weirdly and closed the door of the Tong Mansion.
"This journey doesn't seem to be very willing, this is a good thing to climb to the sky!"
Zhao Liangsi looked at Tong Guan and asked.
"He has to be willing, he has to be willing, he has to be willing!"
Tong Guan said with a smile indifferently, if he hadn't been in no one, he wouldn't have made up his mind to Cheng Wan'er.
"If you send the princess over, those officials will definitely disagree, and the emperor will also feel that his face is dull, but any folk woman is not qualified enough, and so is the Jurchens, what do a group of barbarians like, they don't like vassal elegance, and they must have talented and learned women!"
Zhao Liangsi shook his head helplessly and said, there are many adopted daughters in Tong Guan's mansion, it's not that there are no women of school age, it's just that Tong Guan is a military attaché, and the adopted daughters in the family have many unrestrained personalities, and they will not be satisfied if they are sent to the Jurchen.
"When this thing is done, we can send troops to Liao State and take back Yanyun!"
Tong Guan said in a cold voice, once the harmony is successful, Zhao Ji will issue an order to recognize the legitimacy of the Jin State, with this Jurchen is considered a real country, with such a big favor, the Jurchen group of barbarians are not desperate to repay each other?
"There is still a way for the child, but I am afraid that the Jurchens will not be satisfied if they are just canonized as courtiers, right? The Jurchens attacked the Liao State and went to Beijing, but the Emperor of the Liao State and Wanyan Aguda were commensurate with brothers, and they also returned the Jin State as a brother and the Liao State as a brother! ”
Zhao Liangsi looked at Tong Guan and said worriedly, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military plus the emperor all looked down on the barbarian Jurchens, and were only willing to canonize a vassal vassal state, which was afraid that it would not satisfy the appetite of the Jurchens.
"The Liao State didn't agree, besides, how can the little Jurchen be compared to my big country?"
Tong Guan looked at Zhao Liangsi and said, a barbarian tribe would be a vassal country.
……
Cheng Wanli returned to the small courtyard in a daze, he never expected that he had just taken his daughter out of the thief's den, but he had brought her into the fire pit.
"Father, what's wrong?"
Cheng Wan'er looked at her dejected father and wondered for a while, how old had she been and how she had become like this.
Looking at his well-behaved and sensible daughter, Cheng Wanli sighed again, as soon as he thought of sending his daughter to Liaodong and the Jurchen barbarians, he was in pain, he knew that it was better to fulfill his daughter, Sun Lei is no longer a good person and better than a Jurchen barbarian.
"Father hurt you!"
Cheng Wanli didn't want to hide it, so he sighed and shook his head.
"Father, what's wrong?"
Cheng Wan'er looked at her father like that and knew that something was wrong, and asked eagerly.
Cheng Wanli told Cheng Wan'er about the matter, and Tong Guan would send someone immediately, and this matter could not be hidden.
"Why me!"
Cheng Wan'er was so frightened that she couldn't have imagined that such a thing as marriage and kinship would happen to her.
"I don't know, it's better to stay in Dongping Mansion if I knew it was like this!"
Cheng Wanli sighed.
"Father, I don't want to go to Liaodong, I don't want to marry a barbarian!"
Cheng Wan'er pulled Cheng Wanli's sleeve and begged, thinking of those barbaric and terrifying aliens, Cheng Wan'er was so frightened that she cried.
"Alas!"
Cheng Wanli looked at the daughter of the pear blossom with the rain and sighed again, although the daughter is a little deviant, but she is still a good child of filial piety, she has been so little blood all her life, how can she bear to watch her fall into the fire pit.
"Daughter, you leave Tokyo early tomorrow morning, and you can go wherever you want!"
Cheng Wanli touched his daughter's head and said.
"Father, let's go together!"
Cheng Wan'er looked at Cheng Wanli and said.
"I can't leave for my father!"
Cheng Wanli shook his head and said, against Tong Guan's intentions, he will never die well, if he goes with his daughter, he will eventually be caught by Tong Guan, only if his daughter escapes and she is guilty, this matter can be settled, not to mention the Cheng family.
"If my father doesn't leave, I won't leave!"
Cheng Wan'er knows very well how her father will be treated if she leaves.
"The decree will come down in a few days, and you won't be able to leave if you want to!"
Cheng Wanli looked at his daughter with a heartache, and the holy decree could no longer be changed.
"Master, a team of sergeants came outside, saying that they were ordered by the child to protect the master!"
The butler ran in and said.
Cheng Wanli chuckled in his heart, Tong Guan had already guessed that he would let his daughter go and put them under house arrest.
"Father, I won't die, they can't help it."
Cheng Wan'er looked at her father with a resolute expression.
"Daughter, the affairs of the court are not as simple as you think!"
Cheng Wanli was a little desperate, the women who had been close to her since ancient times were unwilling, but who could resist as a result? The royal family is still like this, how can he, a small family, escape.
"It's late at night, you go to rest first, and think of a way for your father!"
Cheng Wanli looked at his daughter and comforted, his heart was in a mess, where did he come from, but now he can only comfort his daughter first and let her not think about it.
Looking at her haggard father, Cheng Wan'er felt sad in her heart, her mother died early, and her father single-handedly brought her up, even if she was more willful on weekdays, her father also relied on her, but she didn't want to cause trouble and affect her father now, but she had no way at all.
