But peace is the general trend.

Wang Anshi got into the eyes of money, and he also wanted peace.

Needless to say, Wen Yanbo.

Wang Ju accepted it when he saw it, and he also wanted peace.

In fact, this time, in addition to the great military exploits of the Red King, most of the ministers are still very supportive. At the end of last year, Wang Ju was ordered to go to the front line immediately. At that time, I heard that 300,000 enemy troops were coming, except for Wang Ju, who dared to go to Gyeongju?

After the big victory, the point was so far, and it was also appreciated by everyone, including Gao Taotao, who was blowing wind in her ears every day, and praised Wang Ju rarely.

But how and, too, is also a question.

Wen Yanbo went home from duty, called a loyal servant in the family, and gave him some orders. The servant quickly went out.

The three of them came out of the post house depressedly to eat and drink, and as soon as they came out, the servant bumped into him head-on, and then whispered to Wei Ming Kerong: "You also know each other, don't expect to take advantage of my Great Song Dynasty, otherwise it will be bad for you Xixia if it drags on." ”

"Ahh Lu Ning was surprised.

"Who is the master of your house?" Jiao Wengui asked.

"Talkative, it is for your own good to oppose my master," the servant finished speaking, and left in a hurry, stupidly, to tell you and my master's name!

Where the three of them stood, Lu Ning said: "It seems that it is the servant of a certain Song Dynasty minister, and it is hopeless for us to make the Song Dynasty hand over Hengshan." ”

"The main defeat was too bad," said Koeong.

How many Xia envoys came to the Song Dynasty to receive such a wretched spirit?

"Let's learn to practice sentences." Jiao Wengui said. Not afraid of defeat, there is a way to deal with defeat if you lose, not only a sentence practice. Li Jiqian was also defeated by the Song army several times. Pretend to be a grandson when you lose. Then the power of the restoration of the mountain made a comeback, and the Lingchuan Plain and the north and south Hetao were worn away from the hands of the Song Dynasty.

But he thought of what Wang Ju said, letting your Western Xia Liang clan take charge is still a good thing for our Great Song Dynasty, and she can only lead your Western Xia to destruction.

If you are not afraid of pretending to be a grandson, you are afraid of becoming a real grandson.

This cast a shadow over him.

However, the three of them were not stupid, although they didn't know that it was a servant sent by a minister in the Song Dynasty to report the news. But you know that you can't do it. So back at the post house, after careful deliberation by the three of them, Lu Ning wrote a letter of guilt.

The book said that there was no exchange in Western Xia, but I heard what Wang Ju said, saying that there would be people in the Song Dynasty who would approve the proposal of exchanging land because they did not know about military affairs, so the deputy envoy Jiao Wengui had the courage to tamper with the national letter, and now he asked the Son of Heaven to send Jiao Wengui down.

People are in the post house, and they are cut down. It was still chopped and disposed of with the Song Dynasty. As long as the Son of Heaven can forgive us in Western Xia.

Zhao Ji sneered after seeing the letter: "In the past, Lian Po asked Lin Xiangru for sin, and he was guilty of it, and he had to have a guilty plea, is this kind of guilty plea?" ”

Is it disgusting, or is it pleading?

Wen Yanbo said: "He is the envoy of a country after all. ”

"What about the envoys of a country, how have they treated our envoys of the Great Song Dynasty in these years, tempting and deceiving, or intimidating and threatening, and humiliating them again and again. Gong Wen, this way, I don't ask them how to do in Western Xia, I only ask them one thing, in the future, our envoys of the Great Song Dynasty will go to Western Xia, whether they will be in Youzhou or Xingzhou (Xingqing Mansion). ”

Didn't you say good things for them, and the matter will be handled by you.

Wen Yanbo was dumbfounded.

In fact, Zhao Ji still gave Wen Yanbo face.

After all, Western Xia was a nominal vassal state of the Song Dynasty, what is a vassal country, in order to please Li Yuan and Li Shimin's father and son, the king of Linyi danced for it at the banquet on the spot, that is the vassal country.

Of course, Zhao Ji didn't expect the king of Western Xia to come to the capital to dance for him, nor did he expect the envoy of Western Xia to come to ask for guilt like Lian Po, but he had to really do it.

Now I wrote an understatement of apology, and then said, Jiao Wengui is waiting for the Son of Heaven in the post house, and wants to arrest you, isn't it easy, the three of them arrested together. Is this also called apology?

In short, this shows that the Tangut people still have a contemptuous psychology towards the Song Dynasty.

But Zhao Ji was embarrassed to say it.

This was a headache errand, but for the sake of peace, Wen Yanbo had to go to the post house in person and said, "You guys are also called pleasing?" ”

"Wen Xianggong, isn't it right?" Korong asked cautiously.

"What did you say to Wang Ju in Yanzhou?"

"Some."

"Wang Ju sent people to record all your conversations and handed them to the official family."

"When I spoke, I was in the Yanzhou Prefecture ...... my Xia Kingdom," Wei Ming Kerong recalled, and it turned out that the official was recording their conversation.

"You don't want your Xia Kingdom Yanzhou, if the official family doesn't want to make peace, what will you Xixia use to snatch back Yanzhou from Wang Ju's hands?" Wen Yanbo interrupted him and asked rudely. This is Wen Yanbo's intentional question, and he paid attention to the expressions of the three of them as he asked, to see if Wang Ju's record was false.

"If that happens, our country will fight."

"Our Great Song Dynasty has been putting Wang Ju in Gyeongju to see if you can defeat him in Western Xia."

In a word, the three summer envoys coaxed together. Wang Ju is not so godly, just like this time, if he didn't drag Zhang Qi, he might not be so smooth.

Of course, if there is no Wang Ju and let Zhang Qi come over, time is in a hurry, and it will be more difficult to defeat Western Xia. This is the combination of the wisdom of the two people, and it is a great victory.

However, the Western Xia people didn't know that they were defeated by Wang Ju again and again, and even when Mao had not yet grown up, this kid commanded a village of villagers and killed hundreds of Xia troops to the ground. Who can defeat Wang Ju in Western Xia? Yes, Li Yuanhao and Li Jiqian may have defeated Wang Ju, but they have already died.

Wen Yanbo knew it in his heart, it seems that after the defeat in this battle, Xixia was really miserable, and he immediately lost his confidence. But this is the most dangerous, when Song Taizong took Hedong, the Liao State sent the famous generals Yelu Sha and Yelu Xian to the rescue, but was defeated by the Song army in Baima Ling. The Liao army is so weak, okay, the troops sent to the Gaoliang River, and the pain began......

It can't be said that it's wrong to think like this, when did Guan Jian Wang Ju really plan to destroy Xia?

I'm fighting on both sides of Hengshan, otherwise how can I say that I will attack shallowly?

"The official family said that your Western Xia plans to receive our envoys in Youzhou in the future. Or do you want to receive my envoys in Xingzhou? ”

"This. This ......"

Why can't you meet the envoys of the Song Dynasty in Xingqing Mansion? In order to take these 255,000, the Western Xia was a vassal to the Song Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty was different from the Liao State, which was economically rich and more attractive.

This is really important, Wang Ju is pessimistic, although it is not like the American imperialists, it is precisely because of wealth. Civilization was developed, so although the Song Dynasty was very weak, it produced a lot of Song fans in Western Xia and Liao.

However, in the Song Dynasty, there were not many Xia fans and Liao fans, at most they were afraid.

Therefore, it has its significance to receive envoys in Youzhou and Xingqing Mansion, and it turns out that the Song Dynasty is like this, so it weakens the attraction of the Song Dynasty to the Xia people and increases the cohesion of the country.

Maybe Wen Yanbo can't think of it, but how can he answer?

Wen Yanbo frowned. said: "If you can agree, I will persuade the official family for your Xia Kingdom." The two countries will be reconciled again, and they will open the mutual market again, and they will still give you the blessings of the summer country. Think about it clearly, you can't negotiate without giving each other a step. ”

After he finished speaking, he went back, in fact, what he thought was very simple in his heart, but it was the most difficult for Wei Ming Kerong to answer.

"What should I do?"

Lu Ning said: "Wait." ”

"Why are you waiting?" Wei Ming Kerong said eagerly.

No matter where the Liang clan will take the Western Xia in the future, what the Western Xia needs now is stability.

If it drags on for a long time, not only the green salt, but now I can't take care of the green salt, but the various tribes in the country will inevitably have all kinds of ideas. Especially on the Hexi side, there are many people who are Uighurs and Tibetans, and their loyalty to the Western Xia is not high, and the south is Tubo, and the west is the Uighurs.

But if it drags on for a long time, there will inevitably be a crisis. Even Lingzhou Xiazhou also has a problem, that is, the questioning of the rights of the Liang family, which will also bring the danger of division to Western Xia.

So can't afford to wait.

"What if we don't wait, can we agree to this request of the Minister of Justice?"

Wen Yanbo knew that it was about the peace faction, but he didn't know the inside story, it was this simple request, and none of the three dared to agree.

"Just wait!"

Wei Ming Kerong suddenly realized, this is also a method, but how long will it take to delay.

Then wait, but this made Wen Yanbo fall into the dung pit again, and he went back to report to Zhao Ji that Xixia would definitely agree, and let the Song envoy go to Xingqing Mansion in the future. Zhao Ji was a little unhappy, Wang Ju said that the war trilogy, pre-war preparations, during the war, and aftermath after the war are all very important. Now it's time for the aftermath.

But it seems that the Song Dynasty won a great victory, but what benefits did the Song Dynasty get?

That section of Yokoyama? But that's not the aftermath, it's the war. Or is that bit of green salt, put it in the Song Dynasty, what is that bit of green salt?

Therefore, now Zhao Ji doesn't want to negotiate peace, and the question of peace is coming, whether to reopen the mutual market, it's better to open the mutual market, or do you want to give the New Year? The Song Dynasty won a big victory, why do you still have to give the year?

He couldn't figure it out.

However, neither Zhao Ji nor Wen Yanbo expected that it was this simple request, and the three Western Xia envoys actually did not agree.

Zhao Ji was waiting, asking for step by step, first the treatment of the envoy, and then the mutual market, what is traded in the mutual market is not important, the important thing is to restrain the Western Xia to increase the number of war horse transactions, and then to the year, to see if it can be less.

But a few days passed, and none of the three Western Xia envoys replied.

Zhao Ji was discussing in the Yanhe Palace, and suddenly asked Wen Yanbo: "Duke Wen, you are an old minister of the Three Dynasties, I don't understand a little, Western Xia put my Great Song Dynasty in the upper country, or in the lower country?" ”

"I am the kingdom of God."

"Then why do I give so many years every year? Since ancient times, although there have been occasional acts of the upper kingdom rewarding the lower kingdom, there is also the act of the superior kingdom giving the year to the lower kingdom every year? ”

"The poverty of Western Xia is the mercy of God."

"Then why did the envoys of the Kingdom of Heaven have to enter the capital?"

"The minister doesn't know ......" Wen Yanbo really couldn't answer.

But in his heart, he scolded Wang Ju to death.

This kid is not only ruthless, but also very treacherous, just like he dealt with Chen Xiang, obviously tripped Chen Xiang, but in turn framed Chen Xiang. Then came Yang Hui, and then to himself......

In fact, Wen Yanbo was wrong, Wang Ju was not dealing with it this time, but preparing to deal with Sima Guang, but he didn't expect Sima Guang to let Zhao Ji get Luoyang in advance, so Wen Yanbo got in.

But what can Wen Yanbo say, at least on the table, Wang Ju did this because he was worried that the ministers of the court would not understand the form ahead, make a misjudgment, and really return Hengshan to Western Xia. Isn't that also wrong?

But before the wave subsided, another wave arose.

The imperial court did not give rewards, so a group of wounded soldiers returned to their hometowns in fine clothes, and slowly set off from Gyeongju to the capital, which was a sensation all the way...... Some people cried, and some people were moved, so they killed pigs and sheep, put them on the side of the road, and rewarded the soldiers of the three armies.

This is the Song army that defeated the Western Xia, why is it so miserable? Isn't it said that the military expenditure is seventy or eighty million yuan a year, but why do they continue to wear tattered cloth armor, paper armor, leather armor? There are also well-informed people, who immediately revealed the truth, after such a big victory, so many soldiers were killed and wounded, and what the injuries looked like, everyone saw it, but the imperial court has not issued a penny reward and pension so far. The news spread quickly.

At least now there is no literary prison in the Song Dynasty, even the one after Su Dongpo, which is not a literary prison, but he was scared by putting him in prison, and then he was still put in Huangzhou as a petty official.

Therefore, some people are discussing, is the new emperor a faint king? The reason is very simple, the imperial court is desperately collecting money, but the officers and soldiers of the three armies have paid heavy casualties and defeated the Xia army, and there is not even a reward, so what is this wealth for? (To be continued......)
