Chapter three hundred and ninety-fifth the mediation of the Liao people
evening.
The back hall of Qingzhou Prefecture.
This room was specially tidied up, but Gyeongju Prefecture is a border town and a military city. It is not luxurious, but more simple and simple.
Xiao Tiancheng came in alone, looking at the scene, his eyes darkened, and his heart became more and more uneasy.
A person's ambition can see clues from his every move, food, clothing, housing and transportation.
The little emperor of Song State is not as cruel, arrogant, and luxurious as the legendary one. He is so simple and self-reliant, and his heart is unpredictable!
"The foreign minister has seen Your Majesty." Xiao Tiancheng walked in, neither humble nor arrogant, and his tone was calm.
Zhao Xu was also looking at Xiao Tiancheng. What purpose did this person come with?
Just a moment, Zhao Xu narrowed his eyes and said, "Don't give me a gift, sit down."
Xiao Tiancheng said politely and was about to sit down opposite Zhao Xu.
"There are still people here over there." Zhao Xu said as he saw it.
Xiao Tiancheng was stunned. He thought that it was only the two of them today.
Xiao Tiancheng didn't ask much. After sitting down, he was curious if the Privy Councilor Zhang Yue would be.
Before he could think too much, he saw a man wearing the armor of the Deputy Chief of the State of Song, with a big beard on his face, looking down, looking like a mountain.
Xiao Tiancheng looked at this person and felt familiar and could not remember it for a moment.
"I am Wei Ming Abian, please see Your Majesty." Wei Ming Abian came to the table without looking sideways, and said in a deep voice with his knees on his knees.
Zhao Xu smiled and said, "Please get up and sit down."
"Thank you Your Majesty!" Wei Ming Acha said.
Xiao Tiancheng's face changed suddenly, and now he remembered it.
Wei Ming Abang, former commander of the Six Army of Li Xia, an important official of Li Xia, and a famous general!
Did he surrender to the State of Song?
Then Li Xia will be in danger!
Xiao Tiancheng could not remain calm, and watched Wei Ming Ambi sit next to him, his eyes flashing violently.
Wei Ming's face was expressionless. This was the second day of his surrender. Now, not to mention his life, but the lives of his family, the key is that Daxia is also in danger. He does not want to follow Daxia to be buried with him, so he naturally knows the current affairs.
Zhao Xu looked at Xiao Tiancheng's expression, smiled faintly, and said, "Shangshu Xiao, don't you need me to introduce it too much, right?"
Xiao Tiancheng tried his best to keep calm. His originally thought of words disappeared, and his body suddenly sat upright and stared at Zhao Xu and said, "Your Majesty, let's get to the point. You can't destroy Xia, even if you force it, you can't control Li Xia. In addition, I, Daliao, will never have peace on your border. This is not the result that your country wants."
Zhao Xu picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said with some emotion: "Being able to see this layer means that Xiao Shangshu's vision is indeed extraordinary. Li Xiamiao and Immortal are just a matter of my thoughts. Now, I want to hear the price offered by your Liao Kingdom."
Xiao Tiancheng immediately said: "Song State withdrew its troops and restored its previous borders. We promise that Li Xia will never invade the border again, so will our Great Liao Dynasty. The three countries will always be harmonious and there will be no more military wars."
Zhao Xu put down his wine glass, suddenly looked at Wei Ming Abang, and said, "Wei Mingqing family, I am going to destroy Li Xia, and Xingqing Mansion is left to you to guard. Can you ensure the tranquility of the northwest?"
Wei Ming Abi immediately leaned over and said with a urn: "I guarantee it with my head, no one dares to act rashly. Your Majesty is powerful and you must not violate it!"
Zhao Xu smiled, looked at Xiao Tiancheng again, and said, "You said you were just straightforward to the point, are you fooling me?"
Xiao Tiancheng's heart sank, the pressure increased greatly, and he sat up straighter, and said with a bright look: "Since Your Majesty said that, then the foreign minister will speak straight. The Song Kingdom returned several cities and villages, and we persuade Li Xia to stop the army. From now on, our Great Liao guaranteed His Majesty that Li Xia would be at peace and keep his own affairs, and that there would be no more war on the border of Song Xia."
Zhao Xu wanted to test it out, but when he saw Xiao Tiancheng directly offered such conditions, he couldn't help but say curiously: "The civil strife in your Liao Kingdom has really reached this level?"
Xiao Tiancheng was not surprised that Zhao Xu could guess it and said straight away: "My Great Liao is strong and the mere rebellion is not to be afraid. My Great Liao hopes forever peace in the Three Kingdoms. This is the blessing of ten thousand people of the Three Kingdoms."
Zhao Xu did not have enough understanding of the situation in the Liao Kingdom, but he also understood a lot from Xiao Tiancheng's trip.
‘It seems that the Liao Kingdom was in chaos for a while, it was a god-given opportunity…’
Zhao Xu said in his heart.
After quelling the Western Xia, Liao Kingdom was in civil strife again. A few of them did not need to worry about these two countries for three or five years. He could concentrate on implementing reforms. After three or five years, the "new policy" was stable. If something happened to these two countries, he could also take action to deal with it!
Zhao Xu thought, and took a sip of wine and said, "I will not go around the corner. First, Li Xia withdrew the emperor's title and I will grant Li Ganshun the King of Shuncheng. Second, the border line is defined by the current occupation, and there must be no objection. Third, Li Xia compensated me 10,000 good horses and 3 million stagnants of money and grain, and tribute 2,000 taels of gold, 10,000 taels of silver, and 3,000 good horses each year. Fourth, Li Xia restricted his troops, no more than 10,000 cavalry, and no more than 50,000 total troops. Our Song Dynasty will send officials to Xingqing Prefecture to supervise. Fifth, Li Xia is a vassal of our Song Dynasty, and is a father-in-law and son-in-law from the Liao Kingdom. He has no subordinates, and the Liao Kingdom will not be enthroned and dispatched..."
Xiao Tiancheng frowned when he heard this. According to what the Emperor of Song said in front of him, he almost annexed Li Xia and kicked them out of the Liao Dynasty!
Moreover, this is just the general outline, and the details need to be discussed in detail!
Xiao Tiancheng had a calm face and said, "Your Majesty, this is nothing different from destroying Xia. I, Daliao, would not agree!"
Zhao Xu smiled softly and said, "I just told you that I didn't ask you to agree immediately. Three days, up to three days."
At most three days, will summer be destroyed?
Xiao Tiancheng was angry and hated, but there was not too much chip. He glanced at Wei Ming Abang on the side and said to Zhao Xu: "Your Majesty, everything is too much, I am the Great Liao..."
"You Daliao Teng will not send troops..."
Zhao Xu interrupted him directly and said, "If Xiao Shangshu had no other words, such threatening words will shorten your time of consideration."
Xiao Tiancheng really couldn't get more chips. Seeing that the Emperor of Song did not take Da Liao seriously at all, he was angry and helpless.
He thought of a countermeasure in the face of difficulties and suddenly said, "Last time, Your Majesty said that he wanted to form an alliance with our Great Liao. Is it just a casual statement?"
Zhao Xu suddenly became interested and said, "If the Liao Kingdom is willing to form an alliance, I am happy, but it will not involve Li Xia's affairs."
Xiao Tiancheng thought about it and said, "It will take me half a month to report..."
"You only have three days." Zhao Xu reminded without hesitation.
'hateful!'
Xiao Tiancheng yelled in his heart, wondering if it was a rebellion in Liao, hating the Liao Kingdom for not sending troops, or hating Zhao Xu in front of him.
Xiao Tiancheng twitched his face, gritted his teeth in hatred, took a deep breath, and said, "Your Majesty, please allow the foreign minister to think carefully. In addition, the foreign minister needs to contact Li Xia."
Zhao Xu looked at Wei Ming Abang and said, "Thank you for your hard work in Wei Mingqing's family, bring some people to protect Xiao Shangshu."
Wei Ming Abian had just surrendered, and he always thought about the letter of surrender. Hearing this, he stood up without hesitation and said, "I will receive the order."
Xiao Tiancheng didn't care at all about Zhao Xu's surveillance of Weiming Abian. He stood up and bowed, without saying a word, and left quickly.
The Emperor of Song was even tougher than Zhang Dun. He now had to know what was going on in Xiping Prefecture? Then, is Empress Dowager Liang really dead? Is it related to Yelu Gong?
This battle has disrupted the originally clear relationship between Liao, Song and Xia!
