Chapter 398 Edict: King Shuncheng
All the Song Dynasty had many views on Zhao Xu.
Some "old parties" believed that Zhao Xu was "cruel and easy to kill, without the virtue of the previous emperor", some believed that Zhao Xu was "sacred and virtuous, favored and behaved in treacherous and slanderous", while others were expecting that "the holy heart shone on the candle, cleansing the court's principles."
The "New Party" also has many views on Zhao Xu. One thinks that Zhao Xu is "indecisive and follows every step", the other thinks that "exercising too much force and weak follow-up". Some people are anxiously waiting for Zhao Xu to "recover a new method in full."
There are also some people in the court and the opposition who were deceived by rumors and believed that Zhao Xu was a capricious and a foolish monarch.
Only those who are closest to others understand that Zhao Xu is extremely clear-headed and has his own views on many things, especially his unspoken ambitions for "expanding territory"!
When Zhang Feng heard that Zhao Xu was about to come again, he thought to himself: Come again, Li Xia is probably no longer there.
The king and his minister discussed it carefully for a while, and Zhang Feng went out.
The most important thing is to resolve the peace agreement between the Three Kingdoms.
The Song Dynasty wanted to deploy troops to the newly occupied cities, the Xixia was busy cleaning up the mess, and the Liao Kingdom had to concentrate on dealing with the rebellion.
Xiao Tiancheng waited for Zhang Shi's "release" and felt very happy, and his expression remained unmoved. He continued to finalize other details with Zhang Shi.
For example, three days later, Li Qianshun was appointed as King Shuncheng, Lingzhou, that is, Xiping Prefecture, and the envoys of the Liao Kingdom were to be witnesses.
In addition, the Western Xia tribute was scheduled to be the end of the year, and the first batch was 10,000 good horses, 100,000 cattle and sheep, 1,000 gold, 10,000 silver, 300,000 stag of copper coins, etc.
The third is that the soldiers of Xixia cannot go east to Xiping Prefecture!
The general framework has been negotiated, and Zhang Feng, Xiao Tiancheng and others are just trying to get some details.
The next morning, Zhang Feng personally sent Xiao Tiancheng out of the city, and the two were still discussing the relationship between Song, Xia and Liao.
Zhang Feng held his hands behind his back, responding to the cool breeze in the morning, and said, "I heard that your country's rebellion has become a prairie fire?"
Xiao Tiancheng looked motionless, smiled indifferently, and said, "It's just a disease of scabies."
When Zhang Feng left the city, he smelled a strong smell. This was the captive many cattle, sheep and horses of Xixia, and were entangled outside the city, with more than 200,000 heads!
Zhang Feng looked at him and said with a smile: "The official said that after this battle, every soldier will be divided into a cattle and sheep!"
Xiao Tiancheng felt a little angry in his heart, and suddenly said, "The officials of your country said before that they would form an alliance with our Great Liao, how many armors should be given in advance, ten thousand pairs?"
Zhang Qi's eyes slowly turned back, and he paced, saying, "There is no problem with forming an alliance. What do you think about the mutual market?"
Xiao Tiancheng pondered for a moment and said, "If your country's previous promise can be fulfilled, it's all right."
Zhang Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, and he felt more and more that the rebellion in the Liao Kingdom might have really been sparking.
Zhang Shi recalled Zhao Xu's words and said, "You can open two mutual markets first. There must be three conditions for mutual markets: First, the two people should be treated equally and should not be bullied. Second, goods should be freely exchanged, without restrictions, and should not be rough. Third, the coins are mainly Chinese copper coins and Jiaozi."
Xiao Tiancheng listened, looked directly at Zhang Feng while walking, and said, "Can I really be free to come and go? It's like buying iron tools, weapons, armor, food and grass from the Song people?"
Zhang Feng calmly said, "Of course, if I want to buy horses, cattle, sheep, etc. from your country, there will be no restrictions."
Xiao Tiancheng's eyes flashed with suspicion.
The Song people had already obtained the Hengshan area, which was an extremely good horse-producing land and did not need their horses from the Liao Dynasty. According to the current situation of the Song people, they did not need any of them.
On the contrary, the Great Liao Dynasty needed silk cloth, firewood, rice, oil, salt, iron, etc. from the Song people!
Xiao Tiancheng felt that there was something wrong with it, but Daliao really needed help!
Xiao Tiancheng was puzzled and said, "After I go back, I will report to my emperor. Xiao is happy to see him accomplished."
Zhang Feng smiled and said, "I'll go to Lingzhou now, and I'll have a Liao envoy."
Xiao Tiancheng glanced at the carriage not far away, raised his hand to Zhang Feng, and said, "Please tell the emperor of your country that if you have a chance, foreign ministers still want to play chess with him."
Zhang Shi knew Zhao Xu's chess skills well and still smiled and bowed.
Xiao Tiancheng looked at Qingzhou City again. This small city hid a Song emperor who seemed ordinary but actually ambitious!
He sighed in his heart and turned to the carriage.
Now, he was in a hurry and had to force Song Xia to quit the army and let the Xia people stab the rebels on the Liaoxia border as soon as possible.
Zhang Feng watched his carriage leave with a gentle expression.
This battle is finally over here. Just wait for Li Ganshun to stamp the seal and enthrone the Song Dynasty, and then the battle can be completely ended!
When Li Ganshun saw the national letter drafted by the Song people, his face looked bad, but he still held back and stamped the seal of Empress Dowager Liang.
Just the day after Li Ganshun stamped the seal, Zhong Jianzhong entered Xiping Prefecture with an edict, a horse, and a hundred soldiers.
Zhong Jianzhong looked dull and had no laughter. He stood in front of the lobby of Xipingfu and looked down at Li Ganshun.
Li Ganshun was expressionless and was wearing a regular dress. Behind him were Li Zhizhong, Wei Ming Ashan, Cha Ge and others.
Xiao Tiancheng and others stood outside the hall.
Silence, even breathing seemed to be still.
The atmosphere is not very good.
"Li Ganshun responded to the order!" Zhong Jianzhong's voice was low and powerful.
Li Ganshun's face twitched violently, but he raised his hand and bowed, saying, "I will accept the order!"
Zhong Jianzhong glanced at them and said in a deep voice: "I have a strong moral character to continue the great rule. I have been upright and sleeping at night, trembling and dare not slacken. The birth of Li in the northwest is not my contribution, but I am truly sincere and obedient to my ministers' words. I feel so relieved... I was enthroned as King Shuncheng, led all the lands in the northwest, and appointed the northwest for our Song Dynasty. Isn't it also called it..."
Li Ganshun's face twitched again and again as he heard the words of the edict, his heart kept irritating, and he was suppressed by him.
"I'm here!"
After finishing reading the book, Zhong Jianzhong slowly closed the edict and looked at Li Ganshun.
Li Ganshun gritted his teeth hard, quickly recovered from expressionlessness, stepped forward to receive the imperial edict, and said, "I thank Your Majesty!"
Zhong Jianzhong examined him for a moment, then swept over the other people present, handed the imperial edict to Li Ganshun, and buzzed: "The oral order of the official family is not allowed by the official family, and your troops cannot be in arbitrary situation!"
Li Ganshun naturally understood the meaning of Zhong Jianzhong dialect, and did not take it at all, and said lightly: "I understand."
Regardless of whether he understood or not, Zhong Jianzhong held the knife at his waist and strode away.
Li Ganshun didn't even deliver him. As soon as Zhong Jianzhong left, he threw the imperial edict on the ground and twisted it hard with his feet.
"I will never forget this hatred!" Li Ganshun gritted his teeth.
When Li Zhizhong, Wei Ming Ashan and others saw him, they did not dare to breathe and bowed their heads.
The king is humiliated and his minister dies!
They naturally did not dare to look at Li Ganshun's anger, but Xiao Tiancheng and Yelu Gong didn't care so much.
Yelu Gong walked in, regardless of Li Ganshun's anger, and said directly: "Okay, the Song people will withdraw their troops within three days. You will return to Xingqing Mansion and give you ten days."
In ten days, Li Ganshun was asked to reorganize his troops and stab the rebels of the Liao Kingdom back!
Li Ganshun's face was ugly, but now it was getting more and more gloomy. He was angry and hated: These Liao people were just using him, and they were not really helping him retreat from the Song Dynasty! If these Liao people were a little more sincere, he would not be so embarrassed!
