More updates from the cute recipe owner)
The next day, Gengxu (Twenty) in November.
In the Zichen Hall, Zhao Xu accepted the congratulations from Yelu Bai and others, the envoy of the Liao Kingdom who congratulated him on his enthronement.
The friendship between Song and Liao is now flourishing.
The exchanges between the two countries became increasingly close, and within a few months, five waves of Liao envoys came to Bianjing.
This time, an envoy sent by the emperor's grandson of the Liao Kingdom came.
When Yelu Gu, a Hanlin scholar of the Liao Dynasty, was appointed by the emperor's grandson of the Liao Dynasty as an envoy to thank the emperor's brother of the Southern Dynasty for the gift of books, he personally handed the two volumes of books that the emperor's grandson of the Liao Dynasty had given in return to Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu immediately laughed: "I have been looking forward to the reading notes of the great grandson of the Emperor of Liao Dynasty for a long time!"
"The sage said: When three of us travel together, there must be my teacher!"
"From now on, I will often come and go with the grandson of the Emperor of Liao Dynasty to confirm what we have learned from each other!"
Yelu Gu hurriedly bowed and said, "I have the same intention towards His Majesty Taisun!"
"When he came, His Highness told his ministers to pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, and to convey his greetings to the Emperor of the Song Dynasty..."
"His Royal Highness also said: I have received a book as a gift from the Emperor's brother. I have read it day and night and gained a lot. I have given two volumes of my recent reading experience as a gift to the Emperor's brother..."
Yelugu said, feeling somewhat guilty.
Because he saw the Southern Emperor with his own eyes in the palace. Although he was young, he could already receive the envoys independently.
The etiquette is thoughtful, the conversation is relaxed, the behavior is full of confidence, and the dignity comes from itself.
And what about the great grandson of the Daliao Emperor whom they were loyal to?
There is no comparison at all, and there is no comparison!
What made Yelugu even more guilty was that the reading notes given by Taisun in return were actually written by him, Zhao Xiaoyan and other civil servants around Taisun, who taught him step by step to write them word by word.
They had been preparing for these two volumes for a full month!
The purpose is to prove to the Southern Dynasty that we, Daliao, also have a sage!
At the same time, it is also to tell all the ministries of the Liao Kingdom, especially those in the Fifth Academy and the Sixth Academy, who are members of King Wei's party - the Holy Lord of Liao is as generous and benevolent as the new monarch of the Song Dynasty. Don't be afraid. When your grandson grows up in the future, he will definitely follow
The sage's benevolent and forgiving government will not pursue anyone.
Both Confucius and Mencius can testify!
Zhao Xu smiled, and then said: "In recent days, I have been thinking about the great grandson of the Emperor of Liao... Since the two ministers are here, they will bring back the reading notes that I have compiled recently to the Emperor of Liao.
Grandson..."
"From now on, Dang Si Shi will come here often and learn from each other!"
"The poem goes: It's as easy as cutting, exchanging, polishing!"
"May the friendship between the Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty continue to last for generations to come!"
"Even if the Yellow River is like a belt and Mount Tai is a fortress, we are still brothers!"
Since Sima Yi broke the Luoshui Alliance, this political promise has become worthless.
Of course, Zhao Xu actually intends to fulfill the contract.
Suppose Daliao is willing to surrender in the future.
So, things like that on the grassland can actually be entrusted to Daliao.
The Song Dynasty was a country of benevolence, justice and etiquette, and many things were actually impossible to do.
Because the moral bottom line of the scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty is at the top of the world today!
Apart from other things, in Zhao Xu's previous life, when it came to conquering Xixia, the biggest issue between the government and the public was not whether to fight? How to fight?
But the scholar-bureaucrats and civil servants repeatedly advised them not to hurt their elders or children!
Therefore, in order to restrain the military leaders from killing good people and taking credit for their merits.
Zhao Xu introduced a policy—those who captured the Western thieves, old, young, women, and children alive would be rewarded as much as beheaded!
Use money to buy big soldiers and military leaders. Don't kill innocent people indiscriminately and kill everyone you see.
For the young, old, women and children, alive, the reward will be the same as the beheading!
The trend of indiscriminate killing of innocent people on the front line was immediately stopped.
After all, if someone is caught killing a good person and taking advantage of the crime, his head will be lost.
So, if I really want to embark on the road to conquer the world in the future, I really have a white glove that specializes in doing dirty work.
The Khitan people are very suitable.
As for whether there will be a backlash?
By that time, Zhao Xu believes that the Khitan people will become as good at singing, dancing and hospitable as the Mongolian compatriots he has seen in modern times.
Because the benefits and benefits brought by industrial development and geographical expansion are enough to bribe anyone.
…
Yelu Gu looked at the jade boxes handed to him by the ministers of the Song Dynasty.
The box is full of books!
There are more than a dozen books!
Each book is covered with silk, with words such as "Impressions of Reading the Book of Rites" written on it.
He opened his mouth and finally bowed: "Thank you so much, His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty!"
Before coming, the emperor told them that they must find a way to continue to let the emperor of the Southern Dynasties donate books.
This is the opinion of Xiao Tuna, Yelu Dilie and others, and it is also the intention of the Emperor of Liao.
Use the intelligence of the emperor of the Southern Dynasties to endorse the grandson of the emperor of Liao Dynasty.
Use his benevolence and saintliness to appease the various tribes of Daliao.
Especially the nobles of the Fifth Academy and the Sixth Academy, let them know - the Holy King of the Southern Dynasty, the Benevolent Sheng, is smart and handsome, and I, the great grandson of the Daliao Dynasty, are also smart, handsome and the Benevolent Sage!
In this way, it may have a miraculous effect in stabilizing those nobles who have been uneasy and fearful of being settled by their queen because of the death of the prince.
In this way, the grandson can grow up smoothly.
Moreover, maybe in this process, he could be influenced by the emperor of the Southern Dynasties and learn tolerance and generosity.
Sure enough, we no longer pursue what happened back then!
At least no more large-scale liquidations!
Only in this way can the Liao Kingdom successfully inherit its power and stabilize the country.
Only in this way can new civil strife be avoided.
You must know that under the command of Yelu Yixin, there were countless nobles from the north of Liao Kingdom who were loyal to him.
Most of these people were involved in the murder of the prince and queen.
Therefore, even if Yelu Yixin was captured, the Liao Kingdom would only dare to imprison him first and then kill him.
What's more, we can only announce to the outside world: Grand Master, King Wei died of illness.
Only then did he reluctantly appease all the ministries.
But the hearts of all the ministries have always been hanging on.
Therefore, in these years, the Emperor of Liao Dynasty paid more and more attention to Han people and Han rituals.
But as the grandson grew older, the uneasiness among the various tribes continued to increase.
Who is not afraid of being liquidated?
At this time, the wise and handsome young master Rensheng appeared in the Southern Dynasty and became a life-saving straw for the monarchs and ministers of Liao Kingdom.
After the agreement between Song and Liao on the exchange of annual coins, the favor of the Liao monarchs and ministers towards the Song Dynasty increased day by day.
This is not only because of the material benefits that make them excited, but also because it can help the Liao Kingdom stabilize the officials in the north, especially those who were members of the former King of Wei.
Therefore, Zhao Xu took the initiative to donate books.
In Yelugu's eyes, it is even more valuable than those millions of Guanjiaozi!
that is……
This gift of books is quite a lot!
Yelugu suspected that the emperor's grandson might not be able to return the same number of notes in time.
After thinking about it, he could only say in his heart: "For the current plan, I can only suffer from His Highness the Grand Sun!"
So, thank you again.
Little did he know that Zhao Xu did it on purpose.
There is no one who wants Yelu Yanxi to grow up healthily and successfully take over the throne more than Zhao Xu.
If Yelu Yanxi is not allowed to take the throne, how about letting Yelu Dashi take the throne?
Zhao Xu doesn’t want to intensify himself!
Therefore, this time the Liao envoy came to the throne and ended in joy and laughter.
I’ll start paying off last month’s monthly pass debt tomorrow!
