Chapter 199 Liao Envoy Enters Beijing(1/2)
Zhao Xu got up from his nap and finished washing.
Feng Jing lowered his head and said in front of him: "Everyone, I was in the imperial kitchen just now. I heard that the imperial censor has escorted Zhang Zhijian back to the capital for the crime and sent him to Dali Temple!"
Zhao Xu nodded, he no longer needed to intervene in Zhang Zhijian's matter.
In both palaces, the scholar-bureaucrats already wished that he would die!
Sima Guang, the only one who could save him, has now gone to Chenzhou.
Not right either!
Zhao Xu remembered!
Not long ago, Wang Yansou took up the post of Supervisory Censor.
In a few days, Wang Zhen, Liu Zhi and others will take office one after another.
Will these radicals in the old party save Zhang Zhijian?
Zhao Xu is quite curious now.
Feng Jing continued: "In addition, Liu Changzuo, the commander of the four wings of the Dragon God Guard, seems to have arrived in Beijing..."
Zhao Xu said oh, Zhang Zhijian returned to Beijing, and Liu Changzuo would naturally follow him.
"It seems that Lu Dafang, the bachelor of Longtuge, also entered the palace just now and submitted his application form!"
"In addition, the envoy of Huanqing Road Manager Zhao Xi and the envoy of Jingyuan Road Manager Lu Bing also wrote letters saying that they have arrived in the capital!"
It is not surprising that these people entered Beijing almost at the same time.
Because they were all recalled to Bianjing by imperial edict around the same time last month.
Yanzhou, Qingzhou and Chengdu are at different distances from Bianjing.
But the traffic environment and conditions are also different.
As these people arrived in Beijing, Zhao Xu knew that the Liao envoy, who had been stuck in Daming Mansion between the two palaces and refused to cross the river, would also get permission to cross the river.
Um……
Because of the fear of Liao, both the two palaces and the governors of the capital felt that they had to wait for the border commanders to enter the capital before allowing the Liao envoys to cross the river!
This is not surprising!
Zhao Xu watched Cuju games in modern times. When the national football team encounters South Korea, they will try their best to mobilize their troops.
Even playing in a youth team, I want to call back the older players who are studying abroad in Europe!
A mere Cuju competition has a psychological shadow, how much more is it a military and national event?
…
The next day, early morning.
At Damingfu's ferry port, the Liao envoys began to board the ship.
Yeluju, the memorial envoy, and Xiao Jie, the consolation envoy, each led a large delegation and began to cross the river.
The Yellow River surges forward.
Yeluju stood on the bow of the boat and admired the majestic river.
However, looking at this big river, Yeluju was not shocked or afraid at all.
On the contrary, Yeluju's contempt for the Southern Dynasties rose again.
reason?
Decades ago, the Yellow River burst and split into two rivers entering the sea in Daming Prefecture in the Southern Dynasties.
The Liao Kingdom has been looking at the Song people in the south with a theatrical eye.
Especially this big river bursts at Shanghukou in Tanzhou, and the rolling river water runs through the entire southern Hebei Road.
The Liao people's mentality of watching theater is even stronger.
Watching the Southern Dynasties rack their brains and think of ways to fight for this big river, they were played by this violent river time and time again.
All their efforts and all the methods they came up with were so childish and ridiculous in front of the power of Dahe.
Therefore, in the eyes of Liao nobles like Yeluju.
The big river right now is a symbol of the Southern Dynasty not receiving destiny and being favored by heaven!
Otherwise, why didn't the Yellow River become violent in the Tang Dynasty or the Five Dynasties? Why did it happen after the Southern Dynasties usurped the Central Plains and usurped the emperor?
This is the evidence that you have been punished by God!
What’s the solution? Yeluju also has one!
After the Emperor of Daliao came out of the Han Dynasty, he was a descendant of the Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, but unfortunately he later lived in the grasslands.
In addition, Daliao used to be the governor of Songmo in the Tang Dynasty!
You can also inherit the legal tradition of the Tang Dynasty!
Therefore, the orthodox traditions of the Han and Tang Dynasties were all in Daliao!
The emperor of the Southern Dynasty only had to declare himself a vassal, and respectfully invite the Emperor of Liao to go south and take his throne, thus complying with the will of Heaven!
Then God will not be angry.
The Yellow River will naturally stop!
Of course, Yeluju could only think about these thoughts in his heart now and talk about them in the palace tent of Liao Kingdom.
In the Southern Dynasties, he would not dare to say these words.
This will start a war!
Facing the roaring waves of the Yellow River, the boat the mission was traveling on arrived at Baima Ferry on the other side of the Yellow River.
There, the officials sent by the Southern Dynasty to greet him were already waiting with their troops.
When Yeluju and his party got off the boat, they all pretended to be sad.
He even howled aloud to express his condolences for the unfortunate death of his brother and ally.
Immediately, he was escorted by the officials and troops of the Southern Dynasty to Dutingyi outside the capital of the Southern Dynasty.
…
"Han Zhongyan, the Minister of Rites, reported: The Liao envoy has arrived at Dutingyi!"
Liang Gong, who was reviewing memorials in Bao Ci Palace, looked visibly frozen when he heard the news.
It is true that the Liao envoys left too many indelible memories for the Song Dynasty.
Xiao Temo and Liu Liufu, the envoys of Liao during the Qingli period when coins were increased.
Xiao Xi, the Liao envoy when Xining ceded territory.
They all once threatened the city of Bianjing with war!
And the fear of the Liao Kingdom has been deeply rooted in the inner imperial city!
The two palaces have just taken office recently and have little diplomatic experience.
Except for the Empress Dowager, who had received birthday congratulations from Liao envoys.
Empress Dowager Xiang had never even met the Liao envoy!
In her imagination, the Liao envoy was basically similar to the Yaksha on the temple murals.
Green-faced Tusk may have passed.
But the fierce look and sinister face should be quite different!
So, the Empress Dowager looked at Zhao Xu, who was sitting next to her in the two palaces, and said to the Empress Dowager: "My dear, when the Liao envoy comes to visit, why don't you ask Brother Six to sit in the curtain?"
She was really scared. This child was frightened by the Liao people.
If she got sick due to fear, how would she explain it to her ancestors?
The Empress Dowager nodded, although she knew that the Liao envoys were actually almost the same as the Han people.
Some of the Liao envoys were even as polite and courteous as the scholar-bureaucrats.
Moreover, among the Liao envoys there were Han officials who served as deputy envoys, and they were actually very particular about etiquette.
But the envoys of Liao are Yi Di after all, and they have a smelly smell. It would be bad if they collide with the dragon spirit of the official family.
Seeing this, Zhao Xu shook his head and said, "Queen Mother, Grandmother, don't worry!"
"I heard that the Liao people also read the books of Confucius and Mencius, and they are not some strange species..."
Even the ignorant person in his previous life was sitting in the palace, looking at each other with the Liao envoys, without showing any signs of cowardice.
What's more, what about him now?
Queen Mother Xiang was worried and said: "Brother Six, be obedient..."
Zhao Xu looked at her and said: "Mother, if my son is frightened into the curtain by the arrival of the Liao envoy, then the Northern Dynasty will definitely underestimate me in the future!"
