Chapter 190: Can't Fight
On the surface, Yi Chu's succession doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Song Dynasty. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoHowever, as soon as Tang Yi said "easy storage", Zhao Zhen immediately understood everything.
Actually, the relationship is bigger.
This matter has to start when Yelu Zongzhen was young.
Yelu Zongzhen is quite similar to Zhao Zhen, when he first ascended to the throne, the queen mother controlled the government. The difference is that Zhao Zhen is very honest and obedient, while Yelu Zongzhen does not let his mother Xiao Fujin worry.
When Yelu Zongzhen succeeded to the throne, he always wanted to succeed in the dynasty, and Xiao Fujin saw that this child was ignorant, so he wanted to abolish Zongzhen and set up his brother Yelu Chongyuan as the emperor.
But Yelu Chongyuan, the child is honest, and he is closer to his eldest brother than his mother, not only did he not follow Xiao Fujin to join the same stream, but instead went to the eldest brother to denounce the queen mother Xiao Fujin. made Empress Xiao's conspiracy fail to succeed, and Yelu Zongzhen also took advantage of the situation to come to the court.
This time to quell the rebellion of the Queen Mother, Chongyuan made the first contribution, Yelu Zongzhen also felt that his younger brother was interesting enough, and the emperor should help the eldest brother even if he was not appropriate. That big brother can't be stingy, after I die, the emperor won't pass it on to his son, so I'll give it to you!
As a result, Yelu Zong really established Yelu Chongyuan as the 'imperial brother' and the prince of the Liao Dynasty.
Back then, whether it was Da Liao or Da Song, the good story of the righteousness of the two brothers was really rumored for a while.
However, more than ten years have passed, and Yelu Zong has really watched his son grow up day by day....
I regret it!
The throne, of course, is much more reliable for his son...
So, Yelu Zongzhen has been adding weight to his son Yelu Hongji since a few years ago, what is the king of Yan, the general consul Zhongcheng Division, the privy envoy of the north and south courts, and the Shangshu order..... Anyway, no matter what the official is, he will put something on the top of his son's head.
Hehe, the fool also knows what Yelu Zongzhen is really thinking, especially the ten-year-old doll has already sat down to the point of the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, the privy envoy, and the Shang Shuling, and if he rises again, there will be only one emperor.
Having said so much, it can only show that Emperor Liao wants to be easy to store, can it show that he does not dare to use troops against the Great Song Dynasty?
Yes!
And for good reason!
All this is determined by the military system of the Liao State, which implements the military strategy of all the people and hiding the soldiers in the people, serving the people in peacetime and serving as soldiers in wartime.
In addition to the 'leather room army' in the hands of the emperor, in peacetime, whether it is the local jiedu envoy, or the north and south courts, or the commander of the five capitals, there are no soldiers and no power in their hands.
This not only greatly reduced military spending, but also ensured that the emperor had absolute military power in his hands to deter the Quartet and prevent rebellion.
To put it bluntly, as long as there is no war, only the Liao Emperor Yelu Zongzhen, the emperor, has soldiers in his hands, and he can toss as much as he wants. Even if Yelu Hongji was sealed as the Taishang Laojun, no one dared to object.
Therefore, if there is no war, it should not be a big problem for Yelu Hongji to take Lao Tzu's class.
That's the problem.
What is the identity of Yelu Chongyuan, who really wants to oust the crown prince?
The King of the Southern Courtyard!
The generalissimo of the world!
As long as there is no war, these two positions are a false title, and there is no use for fart.
However, once the two countries went to war, the entire territory of the Liao State was filled with soldiers, and Yelu Chongyuan became the most powerful and powerful military power of the Liao Dynasty. When the time comes, Yelu Zong really wants to straighten his son again....
Is it possible?
In the past few years, Yelu Zongzhen has really wanted his son to take over the throne, let alone start a war with the Great Song Dynasty, even if he fights Western Xia, he does not dare to start a large-scale war, but only controls it within a small range, so he is still bullied and bullied by the party from time to time.
...
"According to Da Lang's words, the Liao Dynasty frequently sends envoys, not to spy on the reality of our dynasty?"
In fact, after thinking about it carefully, Zhao Zhen also understood that many problems seemed to be reversed before.
For example, this time, it is estimated that the New Year's envoy has not yet returned to Dading, and the new Liao envoy has already entered Beijing. This time, the Liao envoy came on the basis of reporting the situation of the Liaoxia war, and the official document introduced the latest war report of the Liao State, which is undoubtedly detailed, and how many soldiers were used, how much grain was sent, and how many horses and men were levied.
After Zhao Zhen saw it, he felt that the Liao Kingdom was too obvious, and even used this useless reason in order to spy on my movement.
But now listening to Tang Yi say this, Zhao Zhen has a different opinion, Emperor Liao estimated that this was for fear that the Great Song Dynasty would suspect his real intention in using troops, so he even reported this kind of secret matter one by one.
"Therefore, when Liao made Chen Qinghualian warehouse in Dading this spring, Dalang was not only not afraid, but tried his best to promote, that is, he was sure that Song Liao would not go to war?"
"Exactly!"
"Why does Da Lang know so much about the affairs of the Liao Dynasty?"
You must know that whether it is the political affairs hall or the scholars of the pavilions, no one has such a reasonable and well-founded analysis.
"Actually, these are not secrets, and they are more or less mentioned in the imperial court's newspapers. Coupled with the understanding of the Liao dynasty system and military system, it is not difficult to analyze such a result. ”
"Oh...."Zhao Zhen let out a sigh.
After Tang Yi's analysis, it seems that Da Liao is really not in trouble at this time, Zhao Zhen suddenly felt a lot easier, and of course he praised Tang Yi a few words with great words.
"If there are people in the DPRK and China who can be as loyal as Da Lang, I don't have to sleep day and night for the military of the two countries!"
"This has nothing to do with people, the main reason is that the two countries are too deep, coupled with the lack of communication, it is inevitable that there will be miscalculations."
"Actually...."
"Actually, what?"
"In fact, according to the grass people, the Liao Dynasty is now deeply influenced by the orthodoxy of our Celestial Dynasty, and the nobles of the Liao State advocate Sinology, respect Confucianism, respect Buddhism, and chant poems and lyrics like the Han people. It has long lost the wildness of the Khitan wolf clan back then, and the possibility of another war between the two countries is already very small. ”
Zhao Zhen glanced at Tang Yi, "Then you still came up with that strategy to attack Liao?" I can't get a good night's sleep for a few days! ”
"Uh... I'm just going to play with it, who knows you're all serious. ”
Zhao Zhen's joke is a joke, and his analysis of Tang Yi is still recognized.
"Then can Da Lang have a good plan to further deepen the understanding between the two countries and avoid this miscalculation?" Zhao Zhenchun just watched Tang Yi talk eloquently, and he was embarrassed for him. If he can solve this problem, he will not have to bother the two countries for decades.
"Yes!"
“....”
Zhao Zhen didn't expect Tang Yi to say "yes".
"Turn the mission into a permanent envoy and permanently reciprocate each other's capitals. In the DPRK, a special official for foreign affairs has been set up to regularly inform each other of major matters such as government decrees and military adjustments. and answer the questions of the foreign envoys about the affairs of the imperial court. ”
All right
Embassies, ambassadors, and press conferences from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
....
The Great Song Dynasty did not have foreign embassies, and there were even post officials who were specially responsible for receiving Liao envoys. But this kind of pavilion is not so much an official institution as a state guesthouse. It is only responsible for the reception of the letter and the house, as well as eating and playing. It is not comparable to the official public use of later embassies. Otherwise, the Liao Dynasty would not have sent several waves of envoys a year.
In this era, the diplomacy between countries is still in the stage of courtesy.
Therefore, Tang Yi directly mentioned to Zhao Zhen, don't waste the travel money by running back and forth, can't you just stay there? If there is anything to call directly to the Funing Hall to discuss, how much trouble will it cost?
