No matter how many reasons there are, hundreds of thousands of troops in Hedong and Hebei have been lost, and the spearhead of the common people must be pointed at the imperial court. Now Shilin and the army have understood this move of King Yun going north, which once made many people criticize Zhao Kai and Yang Zhi's conduct, but with Yang Zhi occupying the Hetao, the Jin army went south again, and even people like Zhou Dunyi could see the subtlety of this move.

It snowed heavily in Bianliang, and Chongshidao was appointed as the Xuanfu envoy of Hedong and Hebei, but the door was crowded; Prime Minister Tang Ke had already ordered the army of the Qinwang of all roads to temporarily stay in place and not to move, and the defenders of Bianliang were not under the command of Zhuangshidao, so naturally no one came to talk to him. At noon, there were still two guests, Zen Master Huikun and Zhu Tong, the bearded prince, Chong Bin looked at the two and smiled: "Sit down, it's time to say, what do you have to say." ”

Zen Master Huikun glanced at Zhu Tong and said, "Kind of handsome, I'm afraid it's inconvenient." ”

"Nothing inconvenient, I know who you two are. The seed master said slowly: "Zhu Tong is a person of King Jing on the surface, if it weren't for King Jing and Song Gongming's action, the matter of 200,000 taels of silver would have killed you, and there would be no official reinstatement at all, but I still appreciate that you didn't leave this time." Zen Master Huikun, Meng Yue, after so many years, in the current Bianliang City, I am afraid that only me and Gao Yu and Liu Yanqing still know you, the little catcher who wanted to find out the truth, and later abandoned the official and fled Kaifeng. ”

Zen Master Huikun and Zhu Tong both changed color, and the seed master waved his hand and said, "Don't be surprised, I wrote a note to invite you to come, there is one thing you need to do, it is a private matter, help me send two letters." ”

Two people and two letters, Zen Master Huikun nodded and said: "The idea of the shuai has been decided, the little monk has nothing to say, the little monk is about to leave Bianliang, and the shuai is full of orders." ”

Zhu Tong asked: "I'm an official." ”

The seed master said with a smile: "Zhu Tong, the letter you sent is in Bianliang, in your jurisdiction, find a Xiucai with a scarred face, his name is Xiao Rang, let him leave Bianliang; ”

Zen Master Huikun took the letter from Chong Bin's hand, and said, "The little monk will set off." ”

Zhu Tong knew that Sheng Yuyi had been investigating the case in Feilong Town back then, and only after Zen Master Huikun left, did he ask the seed master: "Why didn't the adults tell Sheng Yuyi?"

Seed Master Dao pondered for a moment and said, "I don't want Sheng Yu to investigate, this matter involves Gao Taiwei, Hui Kun and Xiao Rang coming back, in fact, it is all for revenge." The current situation is tense, and although it is a good time for them to take action, the chain reaction that may be caused is something I do not want to see. So as soon as I got the news, I went after the two of you. ”

Zhu Tong understood the meaning of the planter's way, now Gao Yu is sick in bed, and he has not lived for a few days, but it is one thing to die of illness, and it is another thing to be killed; if Gao Yu is killed, there will be countless rumors in Bianliang, and even cause panic, which is not conducive to the fight against the Jin army. Zen Master Huikun has been here for a few months, and that Xiao Rang suddenly came, probably because he was afraid that Gao Yu would die of illness and would have no chance of revenge.

Zhu Tong is the same as Seed Master Dao, he is not worried about what Zen Master Hui Kun will make famous, since Seed Master Dao has found out his identity, Zen Master Hui Kun will give up even if it is for Sheng Yuyi. What worries people is Xiao Rang, Zhu Tong arched his hand and said: "Xiaguan is going to look for Xiao Rang, but he is handsome, can you tell Xiaguan how these news came from." ”

The seed master said with a smile: "You can't ask about the affairs between the powerful and powerful, you came back from Shaanxi, and you didn't ask about the silver again, nor did you ask yourself how the unjust murder case was cleared, this is the smart place." Again, I can't tell you who the news is, you'd better not even guess. ”

Zhu Tong said goodbye again, and the seed master saw Zhu Tong leaving, turned back to Chong Bin and said, "Prepare a sedan chair and enter the palace." ”

The snow was falling heavier and heavier, and there were even a few crows' cries in front of the majestic palace, and the officials of the scattered dynasty walked down the stone steps of the main hall one after another, and stepped onto the white snow. Seeing the Planter Dao coming, most of the officials gave way to salute. Shang Shu Youcheng Sun Fu walked up to him, the anger on his face was not gone, and the seed master asked curiously, "Master Sun, what's wrong?"

Sun Fu gritted his teeth and finished talking about the matter, today Tang Ke convened the ministers of the imperial court to discuss, and thought that the officials who should be ceded to the three towns of Jin Bing accounted for nine-tenths, and more than half of them approved of the river rowing; Tang Ke arranged for Wang Yun, the secretary of the Criminal Department, to send Jin Jun to negotiate peace, in order to show his determination, the privy envoy Zhan Du was dismissed, and Zhang Shuye was also forced to withdraw from the city, Ye Mengde took the opportunity to resign and return to his hometown. The seed master said with an unchanged face: "I'm about to see the emperor, why don't we go over together." ”

Sun Fu nodded, and accompanied the seed master to the imperial study, Song Qinzong Zhao Huan was in a daze, saw the two and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

The old minister said with his hand: "The old minister thinks that once the city is trapped in the four places of Bianliang, it is difficult to convey the order to the Quartet, and the emperor can choose Guanzhong or Jinling to temporarily avoid the edge, and leave one person to sit in Bianliang." ”

Song Qinzong sneered: "In this way, I happen to be ridiculed by the people of the world, I have decided to negotiate peace, I think that what the Jin people want is only land, gold and silver, and they don't dare to ask me for the name of the Great Song Dynasty." Elder Chong, if you are in good health, it is better to go to Mengzhou, which is our last place on the north bank, I have already mobilized 30,000 horses from Jiangling, and Dong Zhi will transfer 20,000 men from Yingchang Mansion. ”

Sun Fu felt that Song Qinzong's words were a bit heavy, and the Dao of Cultivating Masters was purely from a strategic point of view, and this proposal was not wrong; Heyang was now in the middle of the attack of the two Jin armies, and there was almost no value in holding on, so he planned to make a show for negotiations, and 50,000 people could not be filled in in vain. Sun Fu was about to persuade two sentences, but he didn't expect the planter to bow down and say, "The minister obeys the order." ”。

Because of Tang Ke's order, Dong Zhi's army was still in Yingchang Mansion and refused to set off, so he decided to go to Xuzhou to meet Dong Zhi, and then lead the army north to cross the river together;

At dawn, suddenly a fast horse came, the Yellow River froze yesterday, Wanyan Zongfu led the cavalry to cross the Yellow River at night in the wind and snow, copied the back road of the Song army, Hu Yanzhuo had just replenished the 20,000 troops annihilated, Wanyan Zongfu conquered Zhengzhou, straight to Bianliang; Song Qinzong learned that the periphery could not be defended, and ordered the seed master to return to Bianliang as soon as possible.
