Chapter 45: Yuwen is happy to be a father
Zhao Huan sat on the chair panting. The Wende Hall was actually his office, but there was a bed. But he had been staying in the Wende Hall for the past few days.
It is really difficult to be an emperor, especially to be a good emperor.
But he felt that he could still hold on.
Of course, Zhao Huan would not execute Bai Shizhong's proposal. Whoever executes it is a fool. He doesn't want to be infatuated for thousands of years. The feeling of being scolded for hundreds of years is really bad.
Bai Shizhong was naturally not afraid. First of all, he only made verbal advice and had no basis for paper versions. Historical books focused more on the emperor's choices.
Second, his position is that he is an elite at the top of society. How can he care about the lives and death of the people?
Water can carry a boat or cover it. This famous saying does not exist in him at all, because he is a minister, not a king, so he naturally does not need to endorse the people of the world.
But Zhao Huan needs it.
It was just because he was the emperor, sitting in this position of the Nine Five Lords, enjoying the admiration of the people of the world. This admiration was not given to him for no reason!
Where can I find any free lunch in the world?
Zhao Huan picked up his entire work and watched it seriously. The pen tip of the whole work was sharp, and various examples seemed sarcastic, but they pointed directly at the problem itself.
There was nothing wrong all night. When Zhao Huan woke up, he saw Shen Cong waiting at the door. Zhao Ying stood by the pillar as always, as if he hadn't slept all night.
"What's the matter? I came so early?" Zhao Huan asked curiously. The Song Dynasty often prefectures once every five days. If nothing happened, the Secretariat would take notes that the emperor needed to be corrected by the Emperor to the Wende Hall for comment. Shen Cong's previous command almost became a small yellow sect, just like a person who specialized in informing the news.
Shen Cong lowered his head and whispered: "Your Majesty, the Jin envoy Yuwen Xuzhong and Wanyan Ningji are waiting outside the hall, waiting for the summons, but they are still here to negotiate."
As Shen Cong said, he took out a letter and said, "This is the letter of the Jin envoy. Please read it."
He spoke sarcastically and hesitantly, as if there was something in his words. Zhao Huan yawned and sat on the dragon throne.
I didn’t even allow food to be eaten early in the morning, and I squeezed the emperor! It’s a rebellion!
He opened the thorn, but saw that in addition to the letter of the country, there was also a note with a few small words written on it: "Ning Ji wanted to bring Xuzhong's family back north, and it was involved in the matter of Yuwen Xuzhong, so the ministers could deal with it."
Zhao Huan's sleepiness disappeared in an instant. The fewer words, the bigger the matter!
I knew that there was an old mother in Yuwen Xu, which was like a sieve in the Northern Song Dynasty intelligence system.
Wouldn’t this old mother be forced to suffer with Yuwen Xuzhong?
Leave everything to Shen Cong? Has he arranged it?
Zhao Huan looked at the palace maid who was standing at the left and right, and knew that there might be spies from the Song State here, but Shen Cong was not sure who it was, otherwise he wouldn't have to say that.
"Xuan and the others will enter the palace." Zhao Huan nodded to Shen Cong. This Shen Cong is very capable!
Even if he asked him to write a pension letter, he didn't know if he had finished it. He had been leaving this homework for a day, but he didn't see him hand in it.
"See Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty." Wanyan Ningji came up to participate in Your Majesty. If he still spoke about King Hu and Song in the court, he was to force negotiations. Now that he met for the second time, such a method would be inferior.
Wanyan Ningji looked at Zhao Huan. When he was studying in the Imperial College, he had seen Zhao Huan. At that time, Zhao Huan lowered his head and had no confidence and looked cowardly. How could he be as energetic as he is now? A real man should be like this?!
Wanyan Ningji stepped forward and said, "My emperor wants to become a relative of Your Majesty and cultivate friends forever. The two countries imitate the old calendars of the Liao and Song dynasties and are called brotherly countries."
I believe you!
The Jin Kingdom went south for the second time and devoured the Northern Song Dynasty alive. He knew it!
This time I went south, I didn’t bring enough military weapons to attack the city. If I had brought enough, I would have attacked the city in one fell swoop!
I really want to have a peace talk, so I will withdraw the soldiers from Taiyuan first!
However, Zhao Huan looked at Wanyan Ningji and said with a hypocritical smile on his face: "If the Emperor of Jin means this, it will naturally be a good thing. It will always be a good thing to cultivate friends and refrain from war, benefit the country and the people. I can issue an edict today to establish an alliance between the two countries. I wonder if you have brought the edict from the Emperor of Jin?"
Isn’t politics just nonsense?
Zhao Huan smiled and felt that he had already made some preparations for this.
When you talk to others, you can still say a few words when you talk to others.
"Your Majesty, let me listen to my words. How about giving the elder brother the land of the three towns to the elder brother as a brother? Your Majesty knows that the Jin Dynasty is bitter and cold, and there is no land grain. Last year, it snowed heavily, and it froze to death, and how many people starved to death. This year, it is a severe drought. Your Majesty will save someone and build a seven-level pagoda. This will save the people of the Jin Dynasty. Wouldn't it be a saint in the world? I hope your Majesty will be right." Wanyan Ningji no longer used threats and intimidation this time, but he has changed to a sweet-mouthed sword.
After supporting the people of Jin, the people of Song Dynasty should not want to have a stable life
!Zhao Huan felt that his cultivation skills were really bad, because he had taken off one of his shoes and was about to throw them out and let Wanyan Ningji get out.
However, seeing Yuwen Xuzhong, who was pale next to him, Zhao Huan chose to endure.
I am doing this for my loyal minister in the Song Dynasty. Can't I give you such face?
"The Jin envoy was joking. I said it very clearly in the court that day that day that there was no marriage between the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty and the previous ones! There was no ceremony for brothers to fight against the country! The king died of the country, the doctor died, and the soldiers died! This is how it is! You will stop until death! Have you forgotten this? You must not be able to speak gold and jade, and even if you say one word is as good as a horse, I cannot change the orders in the morning and night!" Zhao Huan said in an official voice.
Wanyan Ningji tilted his head and looked at Yuwen Xuzhong, with a strange smile on his face and said, "Your Majesty doesn't want to give me the place I gave me, so it's the same. My Master of Jin misses his family very much. When I was in Jin Dynasty, I often recite poems and miss his mother. I looked for wine in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I was filled with sorrows."
"Tonight, every family is at the banquet, and the house is shining on the Qilou. I know that the lonely guest is alone holding his hometown sorrow. I am grateful when I am grateful. I am still not satisfied. I have not stopped singing. I should divide a thousand hu of wine to wash away the worries of a hundred years. Those who hear it are sad, and those who hear it are crying. Your Majesty! It is Master Yuwen's long-cherished wish. I wonder if Your Majesty agrees?"
"Oh? As an old minister of the Song Dynasty, Yuwen Xuzhong has achieved such achievements today. He is already in the important position of the National Master. It's really great! The Song Dynasty misses its talents, which is a pity! What a pity!" Zhao Huan pretended to be moved first, then looked at Shen Cong and asked, "After the previous command, you are responsible for the Investigation Department and the Ice Well Affairs Office. Can you tell the recent situation of Yuwen Xuzhong?"
Shen Cong praised Zhao Huan and asked directly that he might have been suspicious of Ning Ji. Such a compliment, his unknowing expression, was quite a bit of acting.
There is also the feeling of contempt that Yuwen Xuzhong, an old minister of the Song Dynasty, became the Jin national teacher, and the feeling of contempt in the heavenly state.
He said loudly: "Your Majesty, I am indeed responsible for spying. Since Master Yuwen has been ranked first-ranked and will be the king soon, I will still be my old minister of the Song Dynasty. I will naturally investigate. However, Yuwen Xuzhong's mother has long been old and has been dead for more than half a year."
Yuwen Xuzhong's face changed a few times, from doubting that he had heard it wrong, to frowning and analyzing whether it was Song Ting's refusal, to his face full of sadness, he bent down and said, "Your Majesty, I'll allow the old minister to carry the coffin to the north!"
Every word comes from the heart!
Zhao Huan even suspected that Yuwen Xuzhong really didn't know about his mother's situation!
Is this a natural emotion or an Oscar-like acting?
Chen said with a wicked smile on his face: "But I found out that Yuwen Xuzhong had a wife, and his wife was pregnant before Yuwen Xuzhong went to Jin Kingdom."
"The child is over seven years old now. He lives in Bianjing City and has been waiting at the street corner, waiting for her husband to return. She probably didn't expect that her husband not only did not come back, but also to the enemy... Jin Kingdom became the national tutor. It was a coincidence."
Chen Cong's eyes had a hint of hatred, which was the natural hostility of loyal ministers to traitors.
This performance each exaggerates their emotions just right, all of which is to deceive Wanyan Ningji and the spy among the palace maids.
Yuwen Xuzhong was obviously clear, and Chen Cong was obviously very clear. Zhao Huan even understood one problem, that is, Yuwen Xuzhong was not ready to return to China.
This made him feel lost. Now it was the time to use people. Since he could take the position of national teacher in Jin Kingdom, he would definitely have the ability to stabilize the country and maintain stability. This is based on his observation of his son!
It’s a pity that his talents are, but I don’t know why, so I don’t want to return to my hometown.
"Oh? This is a bit difficult. Master Yuwen also has a wife and children in Jin Kingdom. Master Yuwen must not catch a fire in the backyard! Haha!" Wanyan Ningji smiled happily. This time he received a secret order from Wanyan Zongwang, asking him to take Yuwen Xuzhong's family back north!
Only the two of them know this secret! Then the wife and children can take it back for the job!
