Jin Dunzhong was really speechless now.

This guy, if he surrendered to the Jin Kingdom, he was forced to do so, and if he came to pay tribute and ask for things, he was following the sage's etiquette.

This kind of double standard, Korea is really good at playing it.

Zhao Ning glanced at Jin Dunzhong and said, "Have you nothing to say?"

"Your Majesty, this matter is not something that the envoy can decide."

Zhao Ning said without politeness: "Then why did Wang Kai send you here?"

"Your Majesty, the envoy is here to promote good relations between the two countries..."

Zhao Guanjia's tone was even colder and he said, "Are you trying to find out information for the Kingdom of Jin?"

This sentence frightened Jin Dunzhong to his knees. He was sweating profusely and said, "Your Majesty has misunderstood the envoy."

"Then you can explain to me the matter of paying homage to the Kingdom of Jin?"

"Envoy..."

"If you can't explain it, they are here to get information for the Kingdom of Jin." Zhao Ning said concisely, "All those who come will be detained."

As soon as he said these words, the expressions of the officials changed.

How can this be the case? People come all the way to pay tribute, how can they be detained at will?

Since the establishment of the tributary system of the Celestial Dynasty, barbarians from all over the world have paid tribute, and it is said that in the Tang Dynasty, all nations came to pay tribute.

According to etiquette, envoys from various countries must be treated with courtesy.

This is the first time that a tribute envoy has been detained.

Li Ruoshui stepped out and said: "Your Majesty, if we rashly detain it, will it cause ill feelings in other countries?"

"Other countries will not worship the Kingdom of Jin."

The ministers wanted to say something else, because they felt that Zhao Guan's family was going too far.

Even Zhang Shuye had questions in his head. Yesterday, Zhao Guan's family said that Han Shizhong would be moved to Liaodong to get Goryeo to cooperate. Why did the Goryeo envoys be detained today?

I really can't understand what Zhao Guan's family is doing.

Zhao Ning said no more, stood up and said: "Retreat from the court!"

After retreating from the court, he summoned the prime ministers to the Wende Hall to discuss matters.

Zhao Ning said: "There are several things that need to be done immediately."

"First, mobilize the military and civilians to quickly go north to Taiyuan and add 200,000 people to Taiyuan City. Currently, there are still 100,000 people in Taiyuan. The total population is initially set at 300,000."

"The most important thing is food. As the number of people increases, food will inevitably be consumed."

This is not a big problem. Since the Song Dynasty experienced several anti-corruption and purges, the number of idle officials in the Song Dynasty has decreased a lot, and the food subsidies for officials have also been reduced.

Huaixi, Gyeonggi Road, Hebei, and Hedong have experienced official reorganization, private taxes have been reduced, and people's willingness to work has increased unprecedentedly. Generally speaking, there is no shortage of food, it is just spending money to buy it.

Is Zhao Ning short of money now?

"Second, deal with the prisoners of war, that is, the surrendered Jin army, and order Wu Jie to escort them to Tokyo City immediately."

It is best to choose a group of soldiers with excellent skills to escort them. After all, when digging holes... Oh no, after all, there are many thieves on the road. The safety of the surrendered people must be ensured.

Zhao Guanjia also emphasized that if you get lost, you may be buried alive by bandits, which would be bad!

As for Wanyan Chan's mother, this is a difficult thing to write down, so naturally it is left to the people of Taiyuan to deal with it.

"Third, immediately send envoys north to ask why the Jin Kingdom rashly crossed the border and forced the Song Army to counterattack?"

"Fourth, order the border towns in Hebei to strengthen their defenses in case the gold thieves move south."

"Fifth, send envoys to Goryeo to question Goryeo's monarchs and ministers as to why they sent people to gather information for the Kingdom of Jin."

After Zhao Guanjia quickly explained all these actions, the officials were immediately confused.

We beat the Kingdom of Jin once, and we still want to send someone to hold him accountable?

We detained the envoy from Goryeo and sent someone to question him?

Zhang Shuye asked: "Your Majesty, don't we need people from Korea to help us in Liaodong? Now..."

"The pro-Kim faction in Goryeo has risen. It is impossible to ask Goryeo to help us now. However, there must be anti-Kim factions in Goryeo. This time we will block all maritime trade with Goryeo as a way to suppress the Goryeo Dynasty's support of the Jin Kingdom.

Punish him, and then when he sends someone to question him, he will contact the anti-Jin faction and then negotiate with the King of Korea."

The method of whipping a big stick and then giving a candy may seem simple, but the effect must be excellent.

At this time, Taiyuan was restored. If the Liaodong military town could grow rapidly, the Jin Kingdom would definitely not dare to march out if they wanted to go south again.

After Zhang Shuye heard this, he understood Zhao Guan's intentions and couldn't help but admire him.

"Xianggong Zhao is going to arrange envoys."

Zhao Ding said: "Yes, when will your Majesty's envoys arrive in Goryeo?"

"It's best to leave within a few days."

"Is it so urgent?"

"Han Shizhong is about to move to Liaodong. I plan to give Han Shizhong an economic envoy to Liaodong. Once the Liaodong military town is established, the imperial court will continue to move people to Liaodong." Zhao Guan's thinking was extremely clear, "We will take back Taiyuan, and the Jin Kingdom will never

I will give up and give up. If the Liaodong military town can be established quickly and it is a bluff, the Jin Kingdom will not dare to go out with all its strength."

When Zhao Guanjia said this, the leaders' thinking became clearer and clearer.

Zhao Ning added: "Who is the right person to be sent as envoy to the Kingdom of Jin?"

Everyone was silent for a while, and Zhao Ning said again: "This person must be brave and resourceful. In order to stabilize the Kingdom of Jin, I am willing to do some business with the Kingdom of Jin to buffer the battle of Taiyuan this time."

Zhao Ding suddenly said: "I do have a suitable candidate, but he is young and has just graduated from the University of Tokyo."

"who?"

"This person's name is Yu Yunwen, and he is a brave and resourceful young man."

Qin Hui said: "Mr. Zhao, this person has just graduated, I'm afraid it's inappropriate."

"No! This is the person!" Zhao Ning decided immediately. He didn't expect that Yu Yunwen would go to Tokyo University to study, let alone that Zhao Ding would recommend Yu Yunwen.

This is a famous person in history!

Qin Hui added: "Your Majesty knows people well and has the courage to employ young people. I admire him."

"Let Yu Yunwen come see me later."

"yes!"

The governors were all surprised that a newly graduated student was lucky enough to see Tianyan.

"As for these matters, Mr. Zhao has full authority to arrange them. Everything is very urgent. I don't want to go to war with the Jin Kingdom in the past two years, but if they want to fight, the country must be fully prepared."

Everyone said: "I'll leave you."

"By the way, I heard that Mr. Zong was ill a few days ago. Why not transfer him back to Tokyo? I can also discuss state affairs with him from time to time."

Zhang Shuye said: "I agree with this, so I will make arrangements right now."

The imperial edict sent from Tokyo to Taiyuan traveled north quickly, and the sophisticated administrative system of the Song Dynasty began to rotate.

It is not difficult for the Song Dynasty's mobilization system to mobilize 200,000 people from Gyeonggi Road and Hedong to go north.

At this time, Han Shizhong, who was far away in Dengzhou, had also begun to send the first batch of soldiers and civilians to Liaodong.

Huge sea ships docked on the coast of Dengzhou, and uniformed troops boarded the ships.

Zhang Rong came over and said: "The Korean system has been arranged."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

"This is what the general should do."

Han Shizhong turned to Zhao Chen and said, "His Royal Highness, King Qi, do you really want to go to Liaodong with us?"

"Xiao Wang has already written to the court and received approval."

"Okay, since Your Highness is determined to go, I won't stop you, but Your Highness must be more careful to prevent someone from assassinating His Highness again."

"Korean rulers don't have to worry about Xiao Wang."

Han Shizhong was worried. He was shocked that Zhao Chen was assassinated in his territory.

Who wants this King of Qi to die?

He had already written a secret report about this matter and sent it back to Zhao Guan's family.

Zhao Chen said: "Han Tongzhi, I can help. When I was studying with the teacher in Bianjing, I also learned some fortifications."

"How can I imprison Your Highness?"

Zhao Chen said: "It doesn't matter, I can do whatever they can do!"

Han Shizhong nodded. He remembered that when Zhao Chen first came here, he drank every day and lay in bed all day.

Then suddenly one day, I came to him and said that I wanted to join his team.

At first Han Shizhong objected, but Zhao Chen knelt down directly.

Han Shizhong couldn't bear it, so he agreed.

During this period of observation, although Zhao Chen is immature, he is really hardworking!

In order to achieve his goal, just let him run twenty miles without stopping, and he will not stop until he faints on the ground.
Chapter completed!
