Chapter 1100: Yelu Dutton was punished with my Great Song He Gan (1st Update)
Chapter 1100
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu crossed the threshold, stepped into the room, and bowed deeply to Su Dongpo, who was examining official business in front of the bookcase. "Xiaguan has seen Su Xianggong......"
"Why does Lord Wang have time to come to the old man today? Could it be that the negotiations, which have been at an impasse these days, have changed? ”
"Su Xianggong, you are really not wrong, there is indeed a change, the negotiation conditions of those Liao people have been revised today, and the lower officials dare not be arbitrary, so they specially brought it and asked Su Xianggong to decide." After Wang Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites saluted Su Dongpo, he handed over the new negotiation agreement handed over by the Liao envoy today.
Compared with the previous content, there have indeed been great changes in the content, for example, the previous requirement for the Great Song Dynasty to hand over the murderer who captured the soldiers of the border army of the Liao State and hand over the culprit to the Liao State for punishment has been revised.
It became a requirement for the Song State to punish Wang Yang, who was the main person responsible for the dispute between the two countries, and the Northern Liao would also punish Yelu Datun, the principal of the Liaoguo River, to show fairness.
In addition, the Song army returned to the Song realm and compensated the Liao State with 200,000 taels of silver, and as for the new weapons of the Great Song Dynasty, the amount was halved.
Su Dongpo looked at it, and then raised the corners of his lips. "It seems that the Liao Emperor has not lost his mind, and finally understands that it is impossible to make the current Great Song bow down to his ears by relying on threats alone."
"Then Su Xiang, what do you mean, promise them?" When Wang Shangshu heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, specially, after staying up for so many days, could it be said that he could finally see the dawn of the end?
"Why promise them?" Su Dongpo raised his head a little stunned and said. "Don't you see that if the Liao people get these weapons and equipment of my Great Song Dynasty and study them in detail, and copy them in the future, it will be when my Great Song Dynasty suffers heavy losses, do you think such conditions can be agreed?"
Wang Shangshu asked Su Dongpo with a hot face, and stroked his delicate long beard with some embarrassment. "Su Xianggong, the Liao people have already made concessions, if it is my Great Song Dynasty, if I still reject it completely, does it seem a little ......?"
"Are you trying to go too far?" Su Dongpo took this Ministry of Rites and shook his head helplessly. "Wang Shangshu, you must be above the court at this moment, otherwise, your words will definitely provoke Your Majesty's thunder and anger,"
"The reason for this incident was caused by the border soldiers of the Liao State who crossed the border to burn, kill, and plunder, and what Wang Wushan did can be said to be the reaction of my Great Song Dynasty officials, as for his loss of land and people in Northern Liao, they can only blame themselves."
"Maybe Su Xiang, you have your own ideas, but Xia Guan feels that it is an extremely rare thing to be able to force the Liao State to retreat, if it is really pressed step by step, I am afraid that in the end, it is likely to provoke the Liao people to scatter in two, so that it will not be a loss."

When Wang Shangshu brushed his sleeves away with an indignant face, Su Dongpo also sat behind the public case with a red face and a thick neck, panting. Neither side could convince the other party, and as a result, there was a big quarrel, Wang Shangshu walked away angrily, and Su Dongpo was no better.
If this was not his office, he might have brushed his sleeves away, but he didn't expect that now Da Song was originally the one who occupied the reason.
But as a result, the extremely harsh conditions of the Liao State were slightly changed to be less harsh, and as a result, a great Song minister like Wang Shangshu seemed so overjoyed, as if he had already made contributions to the Great Song Dynasty.
really made Su Dongpo angry enough, but since the other party had already set up new conditions, he still had to submit these conditions to the Son of Heaven.
Zhao Xu naturally has the same idea as Su Dongpo, not to mention, these weapons and equipment developed by Wang Yang can be regarded as the magic weapon that the Great Song Dynasty can defeat the enemy now, how can he give it away, unless it is because of his own lack of IQ.
The source of the news was none other than Su Dongpo, an old driver, who revealed to Wang Yang in detail the inside information of the peace talks between the Liao envoys and the Great Song Dynasty during this time.
Of course, Su Dongpo did not forget to pack the ticket to Wang Yang, in short, he and the Son of Heaven agreed that it was impossible to give the advanced weapons and equipment of the Great Song Dynasty to the Liao State.
However, after hearing about the new conditions of Northern Liao, those ministers in the court all said that although Wang Yang was not too much at fault, but the matter had reached such a place, he Wang Yang would have to bear some responsibility after all.
Since he stayed in the border town to be an eyesore, then, please also ask Your Majesty to transfer him away from the North Shaanxi Road to ease the mood of Northern Liao. Although this opinion was put forward by a person from the old party, it was supported by both the old and new parties.
Su Dongpo made it very clear in the letter that the Son of Heaven was directly angry at the court because of this matter, and he fired back fiercely, which suppressed this group of rebellious ministers.
After reading Su Dongpo's letter, Wang Yang was not happy because of the attention of the Son of Heaven and Su Dongpo, but looked a little gloomy.
"My lord, this is good news sent by Su Xianggong, why are you still worried, could it be that there is something wrong here?" Gao Shi, who was beside him, read the letter, saw Wang Yang's expression, and asked with some puzzlement.
"It seems that I am afraid that Wang will not have much time to stay on this North Shaanxi Road......" Wang Yang sighed and said slowly.
Hearing this, all the civil and military officers on the North Shaanxi Road present couldn't help but show a look of horror. "My lord, how is this possible?"
"That is, the North Shaanxi Road can be today, thanks to the work of the adults, and Su Xiang's letter has been very clear, Your Majesty and Su Xiangke are on your side, my lord, you shouldn't be too worried, right?"
Looking at these colleagues in the hall whose faces were full of concern and anxiety, Wang Yang couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. "Your kindness, Wang Mou's heart understands, but everyone, can't you see it?"
"Although the fault party is Yelu Dutun of Northern Liao, since the other party has made such a statement, if he doesn't want to cause a full-scale war between Northern Liao and my Great Song Dynasty, then, at least among the so many conditions put forward by the Liao State, there are actually a few that my Great Song must do."
"Withdraw from the Liao Territory and let go of these Liao City Fortresses that we invaded, and secondly, the Liao State has decided to punish Yelu Datun, the former governor of the Northern Liao River, and asked my Great Song Dynasty to make similar moves as an explanation."
"How is it possible, then Yelu Dudun was punished by Northern Liao, what does it have to do with my Great Song Dynasty, besides, my lord, you follow my Great Song Law to do things, and you have not made mistakes, why should you be like him?" Zhi Keshi was directly furious, stood up and said menacingly.
"I heard that Yelu Dudten has been escorted to Shangjing in Northern Liao for trial, and this incident happened before the Northern Envoy decided to negotiate peace with my Great Song Dynasty, which is enough to prove that the Northern Liao Emperor is just playing on the topic, how can my Great Song Dynasty be fooled." Zong Ze stroked his long beard and nodded approvingly.
