Chapter 870 Liao envoy enters Beijing(2/2)
If you said that you would have hired more workers, you would become a righteous man.
Then we will definitely expand our business and work hard to hire workers!
...
Amid the chattering discussions of merchants, Xing Shu rode his horse and surrounded by a team of imperial guards, and came to the official road outside the Baima Town, preparing to welcome the Liao envoy.
Next to him was a carriage, with Yelu Ju and Yelu Yongchang sitting on it.
"Uncle He... That's Xiao Dechong..." Yelu Ju lifted the curtain of the car, looked at the Liao delegation that appeared on the road and was surrounded by the Song army, pointing to the tall Liao powerful man at the front of the crowd and said, "It is the legitimate genital of the Siguo uncle's house, and he has always been arrogant..."
Xing Shu nodded as the minister in charge of external relations in the Song Dynasty.
No mistakes, one song, one post, one content, one reading!
Xing Shu naturally used his merits on the politics and its origins of the Liao Kingdom.
Moreover, he could also learn about and ask about it from Yelu Ju, Yelu Yongchang and others.
Therefore, he knew that he should not look at the descendants of the Liao Kingdom, who were all surnamed Xiao of the Han Dynasty, so he thought that they were of the same origin.
But as long as you study it carefully, you will know that in addition to the Xiao family of the Han family, the descendants of the Liao Kingdom also had Khitan surnames.
And the Khitan surnames of these relatives of the "Xiao surname" may be completely different.
Generally speaking, the national uncle's family mainly comes from five different clans, which is the so-called national uncle's five-family family among the Liao people.
A more orthodox title should be: the second uncle's tent and the fifth house.
The two uncles of the two countries have the Shenmi family. Before the founding of the Khitan country or in the tribal alliance era, the Shenmi family Bali, which was specially married to the tribal leaders, and the B-class family had two tribes.
However……
In fact, the real Shenmi family, the two tribes of the B clan have long been killed.
In the early days of the Liao Kingdom, the chaotic politics transferred the imperial system several times.
As a relative of the foreign country, the uncle's account was even more killing.
Therefore, I don’t know how many times I have changed my blood in the so-called "Second Uncle" account and the fifth house.
The so-called fourth wife of the country uncle, where Xiao Dechong is located, is the Yi Xiaoweng's house that appeared in the era of Empress Dowager Chengtian.
This room belongs to the Xiao Siwen family, the father of the Empress Dowager Chengtian, and is the youngest son of Xiao Siwen.
The two families of the Bali clan, where Xiao Sitan (destroyed queen Xiao Guanyin) are located, are not the same source as the descendants of the Shulu family.
Of course, no one knows whether the truth or the false law is known.
Xing Shu looked at the middle-aged man riding on a horse and wearing the costumes of a noble Liao Kingdom, his eyes slowly narrowed: "Are you arrogant?"
Be proud if you are proud!
Wasn’t Yelu Ju very arrogant when he entered the court?
"Does he have any people he likes to me?" Xing Shu turned his head and asked.
Yelu Ju thought about it and replied: "As far as I know, this person doesn't like poetry very much, but he has liked to hear stories about Su Qin and Zhang Yi since he was a child..."
"Su Qin and Zhang Yi?" Xing Shu grinned: "I like it too!"
He was originally a sect and favored him even more after being appointed by the government and being in charge of the foreign diplomacy of the Song Dynasty.
"Wait for me to get close to him!"
It’s great to like Su Qin and Zhang Yi.
Because Su Qin and Zhang Yi never care about whom he serves?
They only care about who will reuse themselves to provide themselves with a stage to display their talents.
Did Xiao Dechong get his stage in Liao Kingdom?
Xing Shu knows, at least not yet.
Otherwise he wouldn't have been so unknown.
Otherwise, he should be where Yelu Ju and Yelu Yongchang are located.
"The one next to Xiao Dechong is Zhang Lin... This is a native of Shenzhou. He has few ambitions and studied. He finally became a Jinshi and loved by my master..." Yelu Yongchang poked his head out of the carriage and introduced to Xing Shu: "This person has always regarded himself as a pure stream and is good at poetry and articles. He is a famous lyricist in the Great Liao Dynasty."
Xing Shu listened and laughed even more happily.
Good poetry and articles?
Then he will come to the right place!
While speaking, the Liao envoys on the official road in the distance were getting closer and closer.
Yelu Ju and Yelu Yongchang also put down the curtain of the car.
Xing Shu turned over and dismounted, smiled and greeted the Liao envoys, bowed slightly to the Liao envoys: "According to the will of His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, the Hanlin scholars of the Song Dynasty will be appointed as envoys of the envoys of Xing Shu, and we will welcome all the envoys of the Northern Kingdom!"
Xiao Dechong naturally saw Xing Shu on the official road early on, Xing Shu was wearing a purple robe and a slinging man's uniform from the Song Dynasty, and his head was so conspicuous that it was difficult not to pay attention!
So, when he saw Xing Shu bowing, he stopped, held up the rituals representing the Emperor of Daliao, and bowed slightly: "According to the will of the Emperor of Daliao, Xiao Dechong, the governor of the Chongyi Army of Daliao..."
He walked side by side, but was a little behind, and Zhang Lin, wearing a red robe, bowed and asked: "The San Doctor of the Great Liao Dynasty, is the one who is waiting for the Ganwen Pavilion, and Zhang Lin, the young minister of the Taichang..."
"I'm here to congratulate the Queen Mother of the Song Dynasty on Kunning's Holy Day, and to tell the story of the brotherly alliance between the two countries!"
Xing Shu listened and immediately bowed his hand, then straightened his back, faced the imperial city, solemnly took out an imperial edict, and began to recite it in a slight and slight manner.
"You have been diligent in your life for a long time and have been in trouble. You have been very good at speaking and doing things, and you have always expressed your kindness and thoughts. You will give you precious delicacies to help you with harmony!"
This is a letter of consolation written by the Bachelor's Academy to read out the envoys of the Liao Kingdom.
It is an agreement between the Chanyuan alliance - the two countries regularly send envoys to each other to make good contacts, and the envoys enter the country, so they naturally need to issue edicts to comfort each other.
This is how the Song envoys entered Liao, and this is how the Liao envoys entered Song.
In the past, this procedure was read out when the Liao envoy entered the Song Dynasty, so it was called the "Tea and Horse Imperial".
Generally, tea is given to Liao people for drinking, quenching thirst and getting rid of fatigue.
It also provides for the Liao people's forage so that the livestock of the Liao delegation could replenish their physical strength.
But starting from last year, according to the new agreement between the Song and Liao countries.
The place where the imperial gifts were given was changed from the border to the capital (where the emperor Nabo was located).
This is to enhance the brotherly alliance between the two countries.
At the same time, it is also to express the importance that the monarchs of the two countries pay for the relationship between the two countries - they will issue an imperial edict as soon as they enter the country. It seems friendly, but in fact, when the delegation enters the country, there will be a large number of soldiers and horses to protect it.
Now, when you go to the capital (where the Emperor Nabo is located) and then issue an imperial edict, it means that for a long time before, the group of each other could have a relatively relaxed and free time to move.
Although it is still necessary to follow the prescribed route under the surveillance of local officials.
But at least, you can observe the customs, geographical landscapes, transportation and rivers of the region at close range.
Instead of being surrounded by a large number of soldiers and horses like prisoners, wishing that even the light would be blocked by the mission.
This is a manifestation of the beginning of confidence in the Song Dynasty. In the past, the Liao people actually didn't care how the Song Ting delegation observed the customs and customs, investigated the geographical landscape, and traffic rivers in their territory.
Otherwise, in the Song Dynasty, there would not be so many ministers who were on mission to the Liao Kingdom who could write various notes about the Liao Kingdom and even draw maps after returning to the country.
The people who strictly guarded the mission have always been the Song Dynasty.
After all, there was never a shortage of patients with late stages of fear of Liao in the Song Dynasty from the palace to the court.
I don’t know how many people were scared by the Liao people.
It was not even necessary for the Liao people to intimidate themselves, so they were disorganized first. For example, it caused countless disasters, causing millions of people from dozens of military states to return to the river twice in the flood. The reason why the Song Dynasty was pushed was because the Song Dynasty wanted the Yellow River to return to the old way and block Schrödinger's iron cavalry who might drive straight from Youyan.
For this reason, my heart was as strong as iron. Even if I hit my head and my blood, countless people were still obsessed with this plan.
