Chapter 267: The Harmony of Western Xia
After Zhao Shu put the palace in this Xiazhou City, the resources of the entire Guanzhong also quickly tilted here, countless soldiers were stationed around, a large number of military villages were rested, and new villages were rebuilt, and this Xiazhou City, which was a fortress, was cast even more impregnable.
The whole world of the Great Song Dynasty had different expressions for Zhao Shu's action, and those scholars and scholars in Jiangnan were full of criticism, accusing Zhao Shu of taking risks and dying in faith, while the generals everywhere were overjoyed, every soldier was full of blood, and those families who were constantly disintegrating were in the eyes of the mourners, especially the many families in Guanzhong, who were full of fear in their hearts.
In the Xiazhou Palace, the people of the Quanzhen Dao were also terrified at this time, and they felt a real awe of this Emperor Song.
The seven sons of Quan Zhen no longer had the slightest hesitation at this time, and the other few people resigned and left three days after Zhao Shu took Xiazhou City, in the face of such an emperor, they had no reason to resist, and they did not dare to have any dissent.
At this time, Qiu Chuji, who was the last to leave, also led his apprentice to find Zhao Shu.
"Your Majesty, that Quanzhen Dao people came to visit him and said that they would travel far away immediately!"
Zhao Long reported, then stopped talking, waiting for Zhao Shu's decision, Zhao Shu, who was holding the book, put down the customs of the Western Xia states, and said in a low voice: "Are you leaving? This person is a little decisive, I thought he would really wait until he returned to Yanjing before leaving!"
"Since he's here, let him come to me, I have something to tell him!"
Zhao Shu smiled and said, Zhao Long immediately took the order, and said to the Jinyi guards around him, and two Jinyi guards went down and led the mound up.
"Poor Daoqiu has seen Your Majesty!"
Qiu Chuji stepped forward and said respectfully, standing in front of the study, quietly waiting for Zhao Shu's reception.
Zhao Shu looked at Qiu Chuji, smiled and beckoned, "Come in." Since you are going away, I have something to tell you. ”
After Zhao Shu summoned Qiu Chuji in, he pointed to a chair not far away: "Sit down!"
"Don't dare!"
Qiu Chuji didn't expect Zhao Shu to be so polite, but his expression became more and more humble, he had seen the domineering and powerful of this Taishi Emperor, and the feeling of a spring breeze at this time made him feel a delusion.
"Haha, it's direct, you go to the Mobei Prairie to help the Qiyan Department fight against the Jurchens, and at the same time resist the invasion of Manichaeism. Sooner or later, I will have to regain Mobei, and I can't let the alien race get involved there!"
When Zhao Shu spoke, he took out a scroll of silk silk from the bookshelf and handed it to Qiu Chuji: "This is the situation in Mobei and the manpower I have arranged in Mobei, after you arrive in Mobei, go to them, they will help you." ”
"Your Majesty asked me to pay attention to that Temujin on Zhongnan Mountain, I don't know who this person is?
Qiu's words made Zhao Shu laugh, and after a while, he said: "This person is a hero, but he hasn't grown up yet. If you go to Mobei, you will support him and be his master, but you can only teach some superficial exercises and teach me the culture of the Central Plains. Keep an eye on him at the same time!"
Zhao Shu's words made Qiu Chuji confused, but he didn't ask directly, but remembered this person's name again.
"It's dangerous to go to the Desert Arctic, but it's also an opportunity for your Daomen. If this journey is successful, I will let you take the place of the Ancient Path and preach in Middle-earth. ”
Said here. Zhao Shu's expression was slightly gloomy and said: "You know, I don't have much affection for your Dao Sect, if you don't make much merit in the Quanzhen Dao, I'm afraid your Quanzhen Dao will be replaced by the Heavenly Master Dao!"
Zhao Shu's words were cold, which made Qiu Chuji's heart tremble, and he immediately said: "Poor Dao will not let Your Majesty down!"
"Go, if you come back, it will also be the time when your True Path will flourish!"
Zhao Shu said lightly, with a bit of affirmation and approval in his eyes.
Qiu Chuji immediately retreated, and after walking out of this mansion, he looked at the true dragon luck rising above Xiazhou City, looked at it with a little awe, turned around and left quickly.
When Qiu Chuji left, Li Gang and the others also came in a hurry, and before they entered the house, they shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, great joy, great joy!"
Hearing Li Gang's voice, Zhao Shu couldn't help laughing and said, "What kind of happy event actually makes Li Gang, who has always been known for being old-fashioned, so out of shape?"
"What a great event!
Uncle Zhang was also happy, and Zong Ze's old face was also full of smiles, and he said one after another: "Your Majesty, Western Xia has relented again, agreed to stop the war, once again proclaim himself a vassal to the Great Song Dynasty, and give up all the old coins of the year, and return all the old lands from Xiazhou to Hetang to the Great Song Dynasty!"
"In addition, the six Yuanzhai divisions of Western Xia are willing to be attached!"
Hearing this, Zhao Shu was also a little surprised: "This Xixia has always been tough, this time he suffered such a big loss, how could he jump twice, why did he admit it in less than half a month!"
Zhao Shu laughed, and his words were vulgar, and everyone present didn't care, they all laughed, and Zong Ze said in laughter: "In addition to this, it is rumored that the army of Western Xia fought with the Yellow Head Uighurs in the Western Regions. Now we can build the frontier with more peace of mind!"
"Good!
Zhao Shu laughed, he didn't expect it to be such a result, it seems that he wants to understand the situation in the Western Regions through the Nine Transformation Yuan Shen, and grasp things more thoroughly.
Seeing Zhao Shu's overjoyed appearance, Li Gang on the side suddenly looked forward to Ai Ai, Uncle Zhang also bowed his head and was silent, and Zong Ze on the side was even more red.
"Huh, what's wrong with the three Qing families?"
Zhao Shu looked at the expressions of the three people and couldn't help but be puzzled, in the face of Zhao Shu's inquiry, the three of them looked at each other, Zong Ze and Zhang Shuye coughed lightly, deliberately turned their heads sideways to look at the map on the wall, Li Gang saw the appearance of the two people, and immediately lowered his face, looked at Zhao Shu and said slowly: "Your Majesty, when we negotiated this time, Xixia proposed that in order to end the war as soon as possible, I wanted Your Majesty to marry a princess of Xixia." In order to settle the hearts of the Tangut people as soon as possible, we agreed!"
"Huh?"
Zhao Shu's face was stunned, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly when he looked at the three of them: "The three Qing families have a good way to negotiate, and they actually sold the widow for a big price!"
Hearing Zhao Shu's words, the faces of the three of them suddenly became bitter, and Zong Ze immediately stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, this Lotus Princess is the most spiritual princess in Western Xia, with a very high seniority, she is Li An'an's aunt, and she has been cultivating in the Xixia Spirit Palace, which is enough to match Your Majesty!"
Speaking of this, Li Gang also coughed lightly and said: "Your Majesty, although the matter of this Lotus princess getting married, although it is a condition for negotiation, this princess has her own vassals, and some of the main battle factions in Western Xia are not willing to negotiate a contract, so they may block it, and the three of us hope that Your Majesty will send a general to marry." ”
"Hmph, I won't let my generals go on adventures, if I want to marry the princess, let them send the princess here, and if they want to fight, let Xixia fight with me!"
Zhao Shu drank coldly, his face was a little cold, and swept the three of them.
"Your Majesty, they will send the princess to the land of Lingzhou, and this princess will also carry the seals of several other cities in Xiazhou, and you can get a few fortified cities without a single soldier, which is Your Majesty's blessing!"
Li Gang's expression was full of excitement, without the slightest trace of shame just now.
Zhao Shu swept the three of them, and shouted coldly: "This is the idea of your civil officials, this land can only be considered stable when it is obtained with iron and blood, this main city of Xiazhou is already in our hands, and the other cities can be taken in a few days, there is no need to do so, I will only send people to the border of Lingzhou to wait for the Lotus Princess, if you want to enter the land of Western Xia, then let the people of Western Xia wait for my army!"
Zhao Shu's voice was extremely cold, civil officials were used to negotiation and compromise, but the entire Xiazhou had been separated from the Great Song Dynasty for hundreds of years, and if he wanted to really get it back, he could only use iron-blooded means to deter all dissent.
