"I heard that no, the rise of the Jin State in the north, the decline of the Liao State, and now the Liao Shangjing has been lost, and the Jin army is preparing to capture Liaozhong Beijing, and the Liao Lord is so frightened that he fled to Liaoxi Beijing and closed his door."

"The! Liao also has today, when the Liao State was strong, it harassed the northern part of the Great Song Dynasty every year, burned, killed and looted, and did all kinds of evil, so there should be this report! ”

"Whether it is the strong Liao State or the strong Jin State, it is definitely not a good thing for my Great Song Dynasty, these two countries are all Yidi, and whoever is in front of them is difficult to ensure that they will not offend my Great Song Dynasty, burn and kill and plunder the people of my Great Song Dynasty, unless my Great Song Dynasty can recover Yanyun's hometown and establish a steel defense line there, so as to prevent future troubles forever."

"Tong Dashuai is not a strong advocate of recovering the sixteen states of Yanyun, why don't you take this opportunity to go north to restore my Han homeland?"

"Tong Dashuai wants to lead his troops south to square a gang of thieves, and there is no time to go north...... It's a pity for this golden opportunity! ”

"Brother Han's news is too ill-informed, don't you know that the imperial court intends to let Li Dadu, the governor of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, go north to attack Liaoxi Beijing and recover Yanyun's hometown?"

"Is there such a thing?"

"Xiaosheng has also heard about it, but I don't know, is Governor Li going to go?"

"Governor Li, the hero of the Han people, expanding the territory overseas, promoting the majesty of the Han people, Xiao Ke can assert that if one of the Han people can recover Yanyun's hometown, this person must be the governor of Li Dadu!"

"Li Yan has hundreds of thousands of soldiers in his hands, and he has been recuperating for many years, if he is willing to go, he will definitely be able to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun, but he is afraid that he will not go."

"Why don't you want to go?"

"Selfishness too."

"Selfishness?"

"On the north side of Lelang and Zhenfan two counties, there are Taifeng and Goryeo eyeing each other, if Li Yan transfers a large army to the north, his defense will inevitably be empty, and it will give Taifeng and Goryeo an opportunity to take advantage of, and the consequences will be unpredictable, and the Central Plains is not Li Yan's territory, how can he take the risk of his own territory being taken away to help the Central Plains build the Great Wall?"

"With the heart of a villain to spend the belly of a gentleman, the Metropolitan Governor is a saint of ancient and modern times, how can he be narrow-minded, Xiaosheng asserted, the Metropolitan Governor will abandon the view of the portal, send a large army to the north, restore my Han homeland, rebuild the Great Wall of Steel for the Han people, and never destroy it!"

"Who is a villain, who is a gentleman, you have to speak with facts, I bet that Li Yan will not go north to recover Yanyun's hometown, if he goes north, I am willing to walk barefoot around Bianliang for three days."

"I'm betting with you, if the Metropolitan Governor doesn't go north to recover Yanyun's hometown, I'm willing to dig out my own eyes!"

“……”

For a while, it seemed that the entire Kaifeng Mansion was talking about Li Yan's northward recovery of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.

Among them, there are two places where the discussion is the most - one is Taixue, and the other is Qinglou.

Needless to say, the scholars of the Song Dynasty lived in a free and enlightened political environment, so the scholars of the Song Dynasty liked to make speeches, reason, and discuss national affairs.

And Qinglou has always been a place where literati and artists gather, and naturally it has become one of the places where Li Yan went north to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun, and prostitutes are also adding fuel to the fire, Zhao Yuannu, the first prostitute in the capital, said publicly: "If the governor of the capital sends an army to the north to recover the hometown of Yanyun, the slave Zhao Yuannu is willing to play the flute for the governor of the capital." ”

Since the mysterious disappearance of Master Li, Zhao Yuannu has become the undisputed first prostitute in the capital, and countless people have not been able to see her for a long time, and now she openly says that as long as Li Yan sends troops north to recover Yanyun's hometown, she is willing to play the flute for Li Yan's piano, how can it not make people talk about it?

In such an atmosphere, the Anton delegation headed by Wen Huanzhang entered Beijing.

Wen Huanzhang and the others were still ten miles away from Tokyo City, and a group of Song officials went out of the city to greet them.

When it was almost noon, the officials of the Song State suddenly saw hundreds of people coming in the distance, and they were also driving hundreds of carts.

Everyone is dressed up as a Song person, and the cart is filled with Goryeo celadon, Goryeo paper, Goryeo cloth, silkworm silk, fur, ginseng, glass, and soap.

In addition, the horses that pulled these hundred carts were all high-headed and good horses in the Northland.

It's not easy to estimate the price of a hundred cars for a while, but it's worth at least a few million.

The officials of the Song State said in their hearts: "Could this hundred carts be Li Yan's tribute to the official family?" ”

When he came closer, Wen Huanzhang fixed his eyes and saw that many of the people who came to greet them were his old acquaintances.

For a while, Wen Huanzhang couldn't help but sigh with emotion!

Over the years, he has been teaching Yin Anren and holding the rope in front of the army.

The powerful and the Manchurian Dynasty have many old knowledges, but there is no one to recommend the sage.

"If it weren't for the chance encounter with the Metropolitan Governor back then, how would I have Wen Huanzhang come to return to my hometown today?"

has been in a high position for many years, and is in charge of the party, if the Andong Protectorate is compared to a court, then Wen Huanzhang is the undisputed Zaifu, under one person, above ten thousand!

This kind of Wen Huanzhang has already cultivated a bearing that people dare not underestimate, so that none of Wen Huanzhang's old acquaintances dared to come forward to greet him.

It's okay -

Among the people welcomed, there are also Cai You, Li Bangyan, Lin Lingsu, Wang Qing and others, so as not to lose the face of the court!

Cai You had the most dealings with Wen Huanzhang, and he thought he was Li Yan's friend, and his status was higher than Wen Huanzhang, so he didn't take Wen Huanzhang too seriously, and said: "Li Yan really took his brother-in-law seriously, and he actually sent you." ”

Wen Huanzhang said: "Most of my governors have no brothers and sisters, only General Wang, a righteous brother, naturally respect General Wang, my governor once said that if anyone insults General Wang, he will personally bring the army to come!" ”

As soon as Wen Huanzhang said this, the atmosphere immediately froze!

Wang Qing looked left and right, and said with a smile: "My brother still likes to joke like this." ”

Wen Huanzhang was noncommittal, then took out a gift slip and handed it to Wang Qing, and said: "The border friction continues, and the Metropolitan Governor is worried that there will be a war, so he will go to the front line in person, so he can't come to congratulate the general in person. ”

Hearing Wen Huanzhang's words, the officials looked at the hundred carts again, and all said heartily: "It turns out that these 100 carts are not a tribute to the official family, but to Young Master Wang, to send such a heavy gift, how close is this Young Master Wang to Governor Li?" ”

Wang Qing was very satisfied after hearing this, and then he had no regrets about the choice he made!

Wen Huanzhang said again: "In addition, the Metropolitan Governor has also prepared a good ship for the general, and he will be able to reach Tokyo in just one or two days." ”

Wang Qing smiled: "Why is my brother so polite." ”

Wen Huanzhang glanced at the officials of the Song State, and then said: "The governor of the capital said that he is a brother for one day and a brother for life, and he and the general are blessed and share hardships!" ”

When the officials of the Song State heard this, they were all moved!

When Wang Qing saw it, he said in his heart: "Li Yan is really a believer, good brother!" ”
