Chapter 936: Drawing Together

In October, the north is already a depression, the grass and trees begin to wither, the thick autumn wind begins to sweep the whole land, the withered yellow leaves rustle with the wind on the ground, some crisp, some nostalgic.

In the East Garden of Yanjing Palace, when Wan Yan Yongji walked in, he saw Wan Yan Jing and Li Shi'er talking happily in the corridor pavilion, and his feet involuntarily sped up, and he walked quickly outside the corridor pavilion to salute Wan Yan Jing and Li Shi'er.

"Uncle Huang doesn't have to be polite." Wan Yan Jing hurriedly stood up, stretched out his hand in the void and said to Wan Yan Yongji, the king of Wei Shao, and then invited Wan Yan Yongji to enter the Lang Pavilion for a while.

"Thank you." Wan Yan Yongji was thoughtful and respectful, which is why he can still be appreciated and valued by Wan Yan Jing until now, and even now, above the Dajin court, he is no less than any courtier.

And now, the important matters above the court, Wanyan Jing will also be handed over to Wanyan Yongji to deal with without suspicion, so that today's Wanyan Yongji has the momentum of overshadowing Queen Li Shi'er's father.

"On the Holy Gift, Zamuhe sent someone to send someone over to lower the table again, hoping to submit to my Dajin ...... again." Wanyan Yongji was not polite, and said bluntly in front of Queen Li Shi'er.

Wan Yan Jing personally poured tea for Wan Yan Yongji, and said lightly with a smile: "I'm afraid that I have mentioned another basket of conditions, right?" Then tell him that I have no intention of having another ....... ”

"No, this time Zamuhe's conditions are very simple, I hope that I will send troops to protect his clan, and as for helping them defeat Temujin, this time I don't say a word. And in order to show his sincerity and respect for my Dajin, he was even willing to send his wife and children to me first. Wan Yan Yongji took out the table sent by the Zamuhe faction from his sleeve pocket, handed it to Wan Yan Jing with both hands, and then respectfully accepted the tea that Wan Yan Jing gave him with both hands again.

Autumn is coming, the East Garden of the Golden Palace is no longer the beautiful scenery of the summer, and the slightly dull beauty of the East Garden is now only left with some tenacious green leaves and residual lotus, floating alone on the water.

Not far away, the ornamental stones that were transported from the Song Tinggen Garden did not have the same artistic conception in the eyes of the Song people in their eyes, but were placed in all corners for the sake of pursuit, and they were also a little desolate in this late autumn season.

From time to time, you can see the palace forbidden army in armor patrolling the East Garden, Wan Yanjing's gaze from the descending table in his hand, slowly moving to the forbidden army passing in the distance, and then returning to the descending table in his hand again.

"What does Uncle Huang think?" Wan Yan Jing gently put down the table paperwork, sighed slightly and asked calmly.

"The minister thought that the Holy One should accept Zamuhe's submission again, even if the Holy One did not trust him because of Zamuhe's repeated times ago. But the minister thought that it was better to promise him first, and after he sent his wife and children over, it would not be too late for the saint to make a choice. Wanyan Yongji said cautiously.

"Within half a year, the table was lowered three times twice, and then the promise was broken. really responded to Ye Qing's words, the meaning of the promise is to violate, not to abide by. Wan Yan Jing sighed, although he was repeatedly unhappy with Zamuhe in his heart, but he also knew that if Zamuhe really returned to obedience, it could also be regarded as a good thing for Dajin at this time, at least he could spare some energy and put it on the side with Song Ting again, instead of always guarding against the cunning fox of Zamuhe.

"Holy Lord, in Yichen's opinion, although Zamuhe has repeated it again and again, it can also be seen that now on the grassland, Temujin's power is getting bigger and bigger, and Zamuhe obviously no longer has the strength to compete with Temu's truth, so he will repeatedly show us his obedience. This matter is naturally in a hurry, and I am not in a hurry, but if I can use the hand of Zamuhe to restrain and contain Temujin, it will not be a good thing. Wanyan Yongji analyzed: "And if we have been standing idly by, once Temujin really gains power on the grassland and defeats the Zhamu Unified Grassland, it is possible that the Holy Lord, my Dajin Ke, will be placed in the predicament of being attacked from the north and south." Temujin and Ye Qing have always been good friends, last year's battle of Guanshan, Temujin stood by and watched, Ye Qing after getting out, immediately repaid the peach, so that Temujin passed the winter last year smoothly, so that after the beginning of spring, not like Zamuhe and other tribes are not as badly damaged. ”

"Are you saying that Ye Qing may join forces with Temujin to levy my big gold at that time?" Wan Yan Jing frowned, and then shook his head slightly, obviously in his heart, he didn't agree with what Wan Yan Yongji said.

Wanyan Yongji looked at Wanyan Jing's disagreeing expression, and sighed slightly in his heart, knowing that Ye Qing's influence on Wanyan Jing was too great, and during this period of time, between Jin and Ye Qing, after a short battle before the first day of last year, Ye Qing is now very friendly to Dajin, but ...... In Wanyan Yongji's view, this kind of friendship is completely like a weasel giving a New Year's greeting to a chicken.

What's more, although the northern land occupied by Ye Qing now has always been smooth with Dajin in terms of commerce and trade, don't forget, this is what Dajin Kingdom exchanged for the three roads of Hetao and the royal family of the Song Dynasty plundered by Dajin State back then.

Ye Qing has always been insidious and cunning, with a long-term vision, and every step must be counted as three steps, so the friendship given to Dajin Country at this moment made Wanyan Yongji have to wonder if this would be another conspiracy by Ye Qing.

"Holy Lord, the minister knows that Ye Qing is extremely important to the Holy Lord, and the minister also knows that Ye

Qing promised the Holy Lord that he would promise to support my Dajin in the war with the Tatars, and would never take advantage of the danger of others. But now the situation is not yesterday, the Tatars have already established a state and established the name of the Great Mongolia, and at that time, the Tatars will no longer be a rabble, they must be powerful, and Ye Qing, once it is profitable, will inevitably ...... with the Tatars. Wan Yan Yongji wanted to continue, but was stopped by Wan Yan Jing waving his hand.

"I know what you said that Ye Qing's wolf ambition must be guarded against, and the lost territory must be recaptured, and Ye Qing must not be forced to be pressed everywhere. But...... Zamuhe's submission, can Uncle Huang be sure that he can control this person to be completely used by my Dajin? Wan Yanjing felt a sense of powerlessness and frustration rise in her heart.

He didn't know what was going on, it was still very powerful, and everyone was afraid of it when they saw it, but in just a few years, it became what it is now.

Although the Xia Kingdom is still the same as it was back then, only the forces that can hold its own territory, why did a group of rabble on the grassland, a group of blood-drinking rabble, the steppe barbarians who had always made the Dajin Kingdom disdainful, suddenly become so powerful in such a short period of time? It was as if it happened overnight.

There has always been only the Song court that was oppressed by the Jin people, but he let Dajin pinch and rub it at will, but now with the appearance of Ye Qing, who seemed to be born out of nowhere, the situation between the two countries seems to have been reversed overnight.

When the imperial grandfather was alive, how powerful and brave Dajin was, and how could he ever be frightened by a defeat? But now...... Since the last two years of the emperor's grandfather, the Song people have suddenly become unstoppable, first snatching back the Beidi Fourth Road and Jingzhao Mansion, and after he became the emperor of Dajin, he lost the Hetao Third Road, which is like a repeated loss of territory, which made Wan Yanjing's heart at this time a strong sense of powerlessness rose, and his heart became a little at a loss, not knowing which way to start to reverse the situation of Dajin becoming more and more passive.

"Once Zamuhe is not sincerely obedient, Uncle Huang ...... We're just luring the wolf into the house again, and we can't afford to lose the foundation of Daikin again. Wan Yanjing said with some painful entanglement.

Wan Yan Yongji was also extremely helpless at the moment, when he just entered the palace, his mood was still excited and excited about Zamuhe's re-surrender table, but now after listening to Yan Jing's words, he couldn't help but feel a deep sadness in his heart.

"Do your best......." Wanyan Yongji said for a while.

"Do your best...... We can't afford the consequences, there are Tatars in the north who want to establish a country as the Great Mongolian State, and Ye Qing in the south is eyeing our Dajin territory, if you want to choose, ....... Wan Yan Jing paused, and then his eyes slowly turned to the south, I don't know why, even now, the territory of the Song Dynasty that the Dajin Kingdom plundered back then has been snatched back by Ye Qing, but now in Wan Yan Jing's heart, he still feels that Ye Qing's commitment can make him feel at ease and trust more than Zha Muhe's degrading document.

"Holy ......." Wanyan Yongji watched Wanyan Jing's gaze move south, how could he not know that at this moment in Wanyan Jing's heart, he still trusted Ye Qing more, so he got up and saluted and said: "Please also ask the Holy Lord to allow the minister to contact Zamuhe again, and the minister is willing to leave for Wuzhou immediately and have an interview with Zamuhe." ”

"Where is Ye Qing now? Jingzhao Mansion, Jinan Mansion, Lin'an Mansion? Wan Yan Jing suddenly asked a question that made Wan Yan Yongji feel inexplicable.

"Back to the saint, Ye Qing is now in Lin'an in the Song Dynasty." Wanyan Yongji just wanted to answer, but the queen Li Shi'er, who had been beside her, suddenly spoke first: "I'm afraid Ye Qing's life is not easy now, since Zhao Ruyu was executed some time ago, Ye Qing is now in Lin'an, and he is also quite embarrassed above the Song court, and he has been attacked by his own people one after another, it is said that he ...... In order to gain the Song court's continued trust in him, he now has to resign from all the dispatches in Lin'an, and use the dispatch of the envoy of the northern region to guard the northern frontier for the Song court. ”

"It seems that the Song court still can't tolerate him, no matter how Zhao Song treats Ye Qing, but at least among the courtiers, Ye Qing is extremely unpopular." Wan Yan Jing showed a rare knowing smile, sighed and continued: "Uncle Huang, do you think that now we have a chance of winning if we win over Ye Qingdang again?" ”

"Woo Ye Qing?" Wanyan Yongji raised his head, his heart seemed to skip a beat several times, which made him blurt out with some panic.

"Yes, is it more advantageous to win over Ye Qing to submit to my Dajin than to Zamuhe's submission to my Dajin?" Wan Yanjing's expression became extremely serious and asked.

"It's ......." Wanyan Yongji's heart was shocked for a while, and he felt ridiculous for a while, how could this be? With the current situation in the Jin Kingdom, how could Ye Qing be co-opted and submitted? When my father was here, he never succeeded in winning over, and now he wants to win over, which is a complete fool's dream!

"Although Ye Qing is insidious and cunning, he also vaguely seems to have a disobedience to the Great Song Dynasty, especially after the Battle of Guanshan, I am afraid that Ye Qing and Zhao Song have become passers-by, and no one will trust anyone anymore, if he is won over at this time, wouldn't it be more likely than the imperial grandfather back then?" Wan Yanjing always felt that now was the best time to win over Ye Qing to submit to Dajin, and most importantly, in this way, he could effortlessly regain all the lost territories, put pressure on Song Ting again, and do whatever he wanted on Zhao Song's head.

"Ye Qing's mind is elusive, and the minister also knew a lot about this person in Jinan Mansion back then.

I'm afraid it will be ...... difficult to win over this person. Wanyan Yongji didn't agree, but looking at the saint and the queen in front of him, with a look of expectation, it was not good to resolutely oppose it.

"Tempting him to benefit, moving to affection, and knowing reason, now Ye Qing is just a prince in the Song court, and he is a prince who is excluded by his colleagues everywhere and the royal family is suspicious, if the saint is willing to give him a greater reputation, it can completely overshadow everything he has in the Song court now, how much does the imperial uncle think it is feasible, and how much is it grasped?" Li Shi'er asked again.

Wanyan Yongji didn't dare to show his dissatisfaction with the queen's interference in politics, not to mention that the saint Wanyan Jing on the side, even at this moment, praised the queen Li Shi'er with approving eyes, Wanyan Yongji had no choice but to bow his head and say: "The minister thinks it's only three points certain." ”

"If I give him the title of King of Taiyuan, in addition to the Hetao 3rd Road, Jingzhaofu Road, and Beidi 4th Road that he has snatched now, I will send the two roads in the southeast and north of the river to him to govern, what does the emperor think?" Wan Yan Jing said endlessly.

Wan Yan Jing gasped, his eyes widened incredibly, as if he didn't know the emperor and queen in front of him, and looked at Wan Yan Jing and Li Shi'er who looked at each other and smiled with some horror.

"Just like Sima Zhao's heart back then, Ye Qing's ambition has always been the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. What he wants must not be what the saint is willing to give, but the two roads in the southeast and north of the river must have enough temptation for him, and more importantly, ...... This is just a step away from the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. Whether it is to give Ye Qing the king of the cracked soil, or to divide one side and become the master, as long as Ye Qing is willing to submit, and his subordinates ...... At that time, it will definitely not be as united with him as now, and when the time comes, as long as the means are appropriate, divide and disintegrate the forces under Ye Qing's command, and then slowly figure it out, the territory that Dajin lost back then can be reclaimed by the saint without a single soldier, isn't it? Li Shi'er said with a smile.

Wanyan Yongji continued to sigh in his heart, what the Holy Lord Wanyan Jing said to Queen Li Shi'er was completely wishful thinking, even with a hint of child's play.

Let's not talk about whether Ye Qing will be tempted by the king of Taiyuan and the southeast and north roads of the river, even if Ye Qing agrees to return to Dajin, with Ye Qing's city government and scheming, he doesn't believe that after Yan Jing and Queen Li Shi'er, he will be able to fight Ye Qing, an insidious and cunning old fox with a very deep city, and it is very likely that he will really lure the wolf into the house at that time, and finally put the entire Dajin country into it, fulfilling Ye Qing.

"But...... The Holy Lord, the Queen, what if Ye Qing was not tempted by these things? Now that Ye Qing occupies the northern land, although the title is the prince of the country, and in the future, he may only be sent by the Song court as a festival envoy, but the saint and the queen should not forget that Ye Qing, the festival envoy, has as many as nine roads, looking at the entire Song court, how can anyone have such a great power to him, or is it independent of the imperial court, and it is completely up to him to have ......the final say. Wanyan Yongji persuaded with some bitterness.

"It is precisely because Ye Qing is now powerful and has a disagreement with the Song Dynasty that I want to win him over. As for whether Ye Qing agreed or not, it was indeed what I was worried about, and I had been hesitant who to send to test and persuade Ye Qing. Wan Yan Jing's words were more like telling Wan Yan Yongji that I had made up my mind, and no matter what, I had to give it a try.

"If you can get back the lost territory without blood, it will naturally be better, if you can't win over Ye Qing, according to me, it is enough to make the rift and suspicion between Ye Qing and the Zhao and Song Dynasty bigger and bigger, and become more and more irreparable, so as to ...... for me to regain the lost territory in the future." Wan Yanjing continued.

"If the saint pulls over the trust between Ye Qing and the Song court with one hand, and divides the trust between Ye Qing and the Song court with the other, the minister will ...... agreed, and the minister thought that since the Holy Lord intended to stir up and deepen the distrust rift between Ye Qing and the Song Court, the person sent to win over Ye Qing must have enough weight and prestige to cause panic in the Song Court and even the people of the world. However, the minister thought that Zamuhe might also be able to do both. Wanyan Yongji said that in the end, he lowered his head a little embarrassed.

The original matter of Zamuhe's submission of the surrender form document to Shun unconsciously became a bargain between their monarchs and ministers, and now it seems that it is more like he finished Yan Yongji, and agreed to Wan Yan Jing's plan to win over Ye Qing in exchange for Wan Yan Jing's agreement that he and Za Muhe would meet and talk again.

Of course, there is also a layer of selfishness in this, that is, Wanyan Yongji also rejected the possibility of Wanyan Jing sending him to persuade Ye Qing by taking advantage of the matter of Zamuhe's return to obedience.

After all, if you want to persuade Ye Qing to return to Dajin, or if you want to divide the little trust that remains between Ye Qing and Song Ting, then this lobbyist, in Wanyan Yongji's opinion, I am afraid that there is no more suitable candidate than himself.

It can also be seen from this that Wanyan Yongji has always been optimistic about what Wanyan Jing and Empress Li Shi'er said, and the strategy of winning over or separating Ye Qing and Song Ting.

Wan Yan Jing and Queen Li Shi'er glanced at each other again, and from Wan Yan Yongji's words, he naturally heard Wan Yan Yongji's attitude.

Wan Yan Jing sighed and said, "In that case, I ...... Uncle Huang was allowed to go to Wuzhou to meet and talk with Zamuhe, if this person was sincere this time, I gave Uncle Huang full authority to deal with this matter. ”

"Thank you, Holy Lord!" Wan Yan Yongji was overjoyed, with a surprised expression on his face, he got up and saluted again, and as for the doubts in his heart about who Yan Jing would send to persuade Ye Qing, without waiting for him to ask, Wan Yan Jing motioned for him to go down and prepare to leave for Wuzhou immediately, without answering the doubts in his heart.
