After watching this shocking military parade, Huizong Zhao Ji, who was sitting with his daughter, remained silent, reminiscing about what he had just seen.

After everyone returned to the outer hotel, Zhao Ji, who had already sorted out his thoughts, suddenly asked, "What does Li Nan want me to do?" Or what does he want? ”

Zhao Yingluo didn't expect her father to be so direct, but she really hadn't communicated with Li Nan, so she didn't know how to answer.

Noticing his daughter's somewhat surprised expression, Zhao Ji asked suspiciously, "Didn't Li Nan ask you to be a lobbyist?" ”

"Nope." Zhao Yingluo and the other two women shook their heads at the same time and denied the matter.

"Then you took the initiative to come here to persuade me?"

"Hmm." Zhao Yingluo came to Zhao Ji's side and said sincerely: "After all, you are our father, and now that the Song Kingdom is gone, we all hope that you can live a better life." ”

Facing his daughter, Zhao Ji also spoke his heart for the first time: "But I'm not reconciled!" The Great Song Dynasty is the inheritance left by the ancestors of the Zhao family, and I don't want it to be destroyed in my own hands. ”

"We know." Zhao Yingluo comforted softly: "But now, you have no power to return to the sky." Even if the empire doesn't take the Song Kingdom, the Jin Kingdom will not let go of this piece of fat, do you think that the Jin people will be better to you at that time, or will the daughter's husband be better to you? ”

"Alas!" Zhao Ji sighed and said, "I understand, give me some time, let me think about it again." ”

---------------

Li Nan knew what his queen had done, but he didn't interfere, because he had more important things to do now.

Now, with great effort, the two armies have taken the last two state capitals of the Song State south of the Yangtze River, expanding the empire's territory again, which has brought many benefits, but also a lot of troubles.

The first is a more conservative proposal, which intends to build a completed defensive position along the coast with the help of the Yangtze River.

The second type was more powerful, most of the generals in the military did not think that there was a need for defense, and spent all their resources on the Northern Expedition to destroy the Song Dynasty, directly advancing the empire's territory north to the Yellow River Valley.

Both approaches have their own advantages, and conservatives believe that the newly occupied areas should be stabilized first, and people's livelihood should be developed to win the hearts and minds of the people. However, the main battle faction believed that after the Jin and Song wars, the Jin State had seen through the weakness of the Song State and was late to blame for the change.

The two sides were arguing, so in the end, it was up to Li Nan, the emperor, to decide.

Li Nan naturally has his own thoughts about this matter.

According to the footprints of history, when the Jin State tested the military strength of the Song State for the first time, it soon began the second southern expedition, and broke through the city of Tokyo, captured the two emperors of the Great Song Dynasty, Huizong and Qinzong, as well as a large number of more than 3,000 people such as the Zhao royal family, harem concubines and nobles, courtiers, etc., and escorted them to the north, and plundered the public and private savings in the city of Tokyo.

This incident is also one of the best things in Chinese history, known as 'Jingkang's shame'!

Thinking of this, Li Nan looked at the sand table in front of him, only to feel the depression in his chest, and couldn't help but chant loudly:

Angry hair rushed to the crown, leaning on the railing, Xiaoxiao rain rest. Raise your eyes, look up to the sky and roar, strong and fierce. Thirty fame, dust and earth, eight thousand miles of clouds and moons. Don't wait, the young man's head is white, empty and sad!

Foreigners are ashamed, and it is still snowing. The hatred of the Central Plains, when will it be extinguished! Drive a long car and step through the lack of Helan Mountain. Zhuang is hungry for Hulu meat, laughing and thirsty for Xiongnu blood. To start from the beginning, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and face the sky.

This song from the famous Southern Song Dynasty general Yue Fei's "Man Jianghong Angry Hair Rushing to the Crown", which he did before his ambition was unpaid and he was wrongfully imprisoned, can be said to express the voice of every Central Plains people in this era.

As the so-called Song Zhiyi, hearing Li Nan recite this impassioned and angry word, although he did not say it, many staff officers and generals around the sand table already knew his thoughts.

Li Nan is the emperor of the empire, his will is the will of the country, since his mind has been decided, all the subordinates and courtiers can do is to help.

At present, the situation of the empire is good, because of the existence of two formed fleets, it has a great advantage in water warfare, and can escort the major armies across the river.

In addition, another fleet could carry soldiers and land from the coastal area of Jingdong Road or Huainan East Road in the Song Kingdom.

At that time, the five major armies and a separate fleet can separately attack the six-route state capital of the Song State, and it is conceivable that the Song State, which has exhausted its forces, will definitely be overwhelmed, and the focus of the attack can be determined according to the situation at that time.

Just as Li Nan and his ministers were discussing how Zhao Huan of Qinzong would react, and where the Song State's Seed Master Dao, Li Gang and Liu Yanqing would go to defend, Zhang Hao, the commander of the royal guard, walked in.

Zhang Hao, as Li Nan's escort for many years, naturally knew the priorities, so when he arrived when everyone was in the military, everyone knew that something must have happened.

Li Nan said directly: "What happened? ”

Zhang Hao handed over a letter and explained: "The envoy sent by the Song State to visit, and now he has crossed the Yangtze River!" ”

"Song Guolai's envoy?" Li Nan opened the urgent letter and looked at it, then laughed, held the letter and said to everyone: "Hehe, it's interesting, Qinzong Zhao Huan sent someone to negotiate peace." ”

Although Li Nan knew that most of the people who played politics did not have any moral bottom line, and they did not pay attention to etiquette, righteousness and shame, but after Song Guo did these things, he still had the face to send people to negotiate peace, and Li Nan felt that he still underestimated them.

From the Yangtze River to the capital of the empire, the speed of the journey was much higher than before, because the cement roads were constantly being built to connect the various state capitals, so it did not take a few days for the Song Dynasty peace mission to arrive in Changsha.

Li Nan gave the Song Dynasty envoys a lot of face, and received them after a routine court meeting.

This time, there were two deputies of the envoys sent by Zhao Huan of Qinzong, the main envoy was the Dazai of the Song State, Li Bangyan, the left of Shangshu, and the deputy envoy was Tang Ke, the right servant of Shangshu and the servant of Zhongshu, and the second was Li Gang, the Xuanfu envoy of Hedong and Hebei.

Varys, the head of the Imperial Intelligence Agency, has an outstanding talent for gathering intelligence, and when he was in the world of ice and fire, his little bird covered several continents, but after arriving in this plane, he still did his old job.

As for the details of the three peace envoys, Varys had already sent them to Li Nan, so although this was the first time he had seen them, Li Nan felt that he already knew them very well.

Needless to say, Li Bangyan was originally a favorite minister in front of Huizong Zhao Ji and one of the six thieves, but this person changed his court very quickly, and as soon as Qinzong Zhao Huan succeeded to the throne, he completely surrendered to the arms of the new master, so he was promoted and reused.
