Chapter 1028 [Grand Event]
Although it is certainly a big deal for many people to form an alliance with the Western Xia, it is just an after-dinner affair for a considerable number of "many people" to interpret what it means to know the streets.
However, for some "many", this is an earth-shattering event.
The Great Song Dynasty allied with the Western Xia? Indifference!
The Great Song Dynasty wanted to build roads in Western Xia, and then change Xingqing Mansion? Oops! It's going to kill you!
Suddenly, many of the people who gave gifts to Li Bigeng these days were clapping their hands to celebrate, and many people who had already chosen to stand on the opposite side of Western Xia naturally had to cry and beat their chests after hearing the news.
Of course, there are still some who are angry and rush to the crown, and go directly to Xuande Gate to block the forbidden door, and ask Li Bangyan, Li Xianggong, Wu Min, and Wu Xianggong to come out and give a word.
For a while, as soon as the Western Xia envoy left on the front foot, the back foot almost turned the sky upside down in the city of Tokyo. What is the surprise of the friendly countries, the envoys of the Hui, Khotan, and Northern Liao, including the Tibetans, and some of the so-called small countries (that is, tribes) west of Khotan, also appeared in person to show you.
However, not to mention the level of Bai Shizhong, Wu Min and Li Bangyan, they are really not bragging. After figuring out Huang Jie's intentions, he didn't need to ask Huang Jie about his future plans, so he also privately called the envoys of the four countries, who were the main troublemakers, to talk secretly.
After all, Li Bigeng will not be able to take any big things, so he must hurry up and rush back to China. Among the envoys of these four countries, only one was a professional envoy (Tibet), and the other three were all cameos by the leader of the caravan, so they had no time to run back to their hometown.
And the topic that asked them to discuss behind closed doors is what Li Bangyan said casually: After changing the Xingqing Mansion, if you are not willing to go, you can also come from Lanzhou to Tokyo! In fact, we are also planning to build an eight-lane road that leads directly to Lanzhou!
Huang Jie's reply was announced at the 28th day of the first month when he returned to Tokyo, on the 29th Li Bigeng set off for Western Xia, and on the first day of February, he announced the edict of enshrined Zhao Fujin as the king of Jin.
I want to say more here, the ancient Chinese dragon is not male and female, it will not be like the stone lion that cares for the courtyard to create a pair for it, and then the male lion with a ball, the female lion with a cub, just like the dragon totem image on the carved beams and paintings in various places, there is absolutely no totem of the female dragon, and there will be no dragon with a child.
However, there are folk legends that dragons actually have gender distinctions, and the most important way to distinguish the gender of dragons is to look at the dragon's scales.
Of course, this is gossip, what I want to say here is that according to the so-called convention, once an ordinary person is crowned king, he is not an ordinary person. Of course, it is not that he has become a superman, but because he has put on the dragon robe, he has become the chosen one, and he is the embodiment of the dragon.
And Zhao Fujin was originally a princess, according to folk sayings, she was originally a phoenix, and now she has been promoted from a phoenix to a dragon, which is equivalent to changing her surname (sex).
Moreover, there will be no longer the eldest princess Zhao Fujin in the future, only His Royal Highness King Jin Zhao Fujin!
As a result, there were bold pear orchards and opera troupes in the city of Tokyo that began to study Wang Jianwang, Wang Siwang, Wang Nian Wang, Wang Shangwang, Wang Zhongwang, and Wang Cheng Wang...... Belch...... And so on.
Subsequently, starting from the third day of the second month, with Tokyo as the center, all parts of the country have made a pilgrimage to the king of Jin, and His Royal Highness the King of Jin, who is the prison of the country, also ordered the whole country to rest for three days from February 15 to 18, and issued an amnesty for the world on the first day of March, except for disobedience, treason, and rebellion, and the rest of the sins are forgiven.
On February 15, Huang Jie also sent a congratulatory telegram from Liaodong...... Belch...... Congratulations to the table, congratulate his wife on her promotion from the eldest princess to the king of Jin, and it is said that she also wrote a poem that made His Royal Highness the King of Jin goosebumps sandwiched in the greeting table, and no one knows what the content is.
However, along with the congratulatory table, there was also a letter from Huang Jie, but he asked that if it was convenient, he hoped that the envoys of various countries in Tokyo could go to Liaodong and participate in a grand event.
In this regard, the envoys of various countries were all confused, and the first thought was, aren't the Great Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom fighting in Liaodong?
The second is that Huang Jie is puzzled by the so-called grand event called the "Liaoyang Council of All Nations", and the envoys of various countries are now in the capital of the Great Song Dynasty to congratulate, isn't it already a "Wanguo"? Why go to Liaoyang to open some parliament of all nations?
In this regard, the official answer given by the Great Song Dynasty was particularly direct, saying that the envoys, you have also taken the return gift from the court, if you don't want to go to Liaoyang to hold this meeting, then you can also return to China, but from now on, don't come to the Great Song Dynasty again.
As soon as he heard that the Great Song Dynasty court was actually on a desperate plan, it was a trick to make people, and it was to talk about the right to pay tribute, and he suddenly lost his temper. You know, even the so-called "big countries" such as Hui, Northern Liao and Dali, come to the Great Song Dynasty every year to congratulate them is a stable and beautiful income, they pay tribute to the Great Song Dynasty is some mountain goods, mountain delicacies and native products, but the return gifts from the Great Song Dynasty are silk and satin, weapons and armor, tea and porcelain that are difficult to buy with real money, and ask them not to come to pay tribute in the future, which is not equivalent to cutting off their financial route.
Suddenly, the envoys of various countries lost their temper for a while and went to Liaodong? Go for it! Can't this Great Song Dynasty call us to go to Liaodong to dig coal or start a war with Jin, right?
In the end, although the envoys of various countries were slow and slow, they still set off on the road on March 15, took the military carriage of the Song army to Hebei, boarded the ship from the military port of Qingzhou, landed in Liaodong on the second day of the fourth month, and arrived at the city of Liaoyang on the seventh day of the first month.
This time, as many as 37 envoys were invited to Liaodong, including Northern Liao, Western Xia (deputy envoys), Huifu, Tubo, Khotan, Dali, Goryeo, and Japan (remember Emperor Toba?). ), Champong, Annam (Lee's), as well as Persia and Tricolor Eclipse (black, white and green) who came to West Asia, and the rest are the so-called envoys of South Asian island countries, and it is obvious that these people are definitely maritime merchants.
After arriving in Liaoyang, Huang Jie also got straight to the point, and said to everyone in the envoy group: "This king invites you to come to Liaoyang for two things, the first thing is to do a great business with you...... The goods are the weapons of the Great Song Dynasty! As for the second thing, I would like to ask you to sign a national treaty with the Great Song Dynasty called the 'Convention for the Protection of Prisoners of War and Civilians'! ”
