Chapter 594: Qin Hui's Assist
June 20, Xijing, Korea.
Miaoqing was sitting in the middle and said: "Jin Fushi held His Majesty hostage in the capital, killed Zheng Zhichang and others, and caused chaos in the country's affairs. We cannot sit idly by and watch."
Liu Min (chan, three sounds) said: "It is better for Master Jianyuan to proclaim himself emperor in order to gather people's hearts."
Zhao Kuang said: "Yes, now Xijing needs someone to stand up and call on everyone to take action together."
"If a poor monk proclaims himself emperor, wouldn't it be considered treason?"
Liu Min said: "Now all the news from Kaijing has been cut off. It is unknown whether His Majesty is still alive. People outside are panicked. If you are not willing, Jin Fushi's people will come to take over Xijing soon."
"Forget it!" Miaoqing sighed and said, "Just do as you say."
Miaoqing still followed his old path in history, except that he was defeated by Jin Fushi and killed by Zhao Kuang.
"Let's go recruit soldiers first!" Zhao Kuang stood up and said.
"good!"
Liu Min and Zhao Kuang went out together.
After Zhao Kuang left, he wrote a letter to Kaijing in a blink of an eye, informing him of Miaoqing's current movements and the fact that people in Kaijing were panicking. He hoped that Jin Fushi would immediately send troops to attack.
But Miaoqing didn't know this.
After discussing with them, Miaoqing went to meditate in front of the Buddha.
It was extremely rare for a monk to become emperor, which meant that Miaoqing had to return to secular life.
At this time, someone outside announced: "There is someone outside who claims to be an envoy from the Song Dynasty and has come to see Master Miaoqing."
"Song Envoy!"
Miaoqing opened her eyes and was quite surprised. He stopped meditating, stood up and walked out.
"Amitabha, the poor monk Miaoqing."
Gu Chao cupped his fists and said, "I am Gu Chao, the Liaodong Economic and Strategic Commander of the Song Dynasty, joining the army."
"Song envoy please come inside."
Gu Chao walked in and poured tea. Miaoqing asked: "The envoy from the Song Dynasty is here, but I can't welcome you from a distance. I hope you can forgive me."
"Master, you're welcome." Gu Chao said, "I came here this time on the orders of Han Shuai, the Liaodong economic envoy."
"If you have any instructions, it doesn't matter."
"My envoy from the Celestial Empire was killed in Kaijing. Does Master know about this?"
"The fault is all the fault of the treacherous minister Jin Pushi."
Gu Chao said: "The instigator behind this incident is probably the Jin man, so I came to see the master."
"What do you think of Ambassador Song?"
"The emperor already knows about this."
Miaoqing was stunned for a moment and said, "Does the Emperor have any instructions?"
"The thunder is so angry that we raise an army to attack!"
There was a hint of worry on Miaoqing's face.
Gu Chao said: "Master, don't worry, the emperor is not attacking you, let alone the King of Goryeo, but the treacherous ministers who opened the capital. Now the treacherous ministers are in power, violating the etiquette and breaking the rules established by the heaven. Master Wang is here to assist you, master."
Come to Qingjun's side!"
Miaoqing then took a deep breath and said, "It's so good! It's so bright!"
"This naturally requires the help of a master."
"The angel said it's okay, the poor monk will definitely help me."
"Our army will send a group of troops to garrison in Xijing, and at the same time, it will send a group of elites to go straight to the capital. At that time, there will definitely be many treacherous people trying to flee north to the Kingdom of Jin and seek help from the Kingdom of Jin. The army stationed in Xijing must be
Keep your hands at every intersection."
Gu Chao continued: "If an unpredictable situation occurs and the Jin army suddenly moves south, our army and the master's troops can also intercept the Jin army in Xijing and buy the king's army time to wipe out all the traitors in Kaijing!"
Upon hearing this, Miaoqing was immediately overjoyed: "Okay! Many wealthy and distinguished families in Xijing respect the poor monk. As long as the poor monk speaks, they will fully cooperate!"
"If so, even better!" Gu Chao said, "I will go back and report to Han Shuai. Then our warships will directly enter the Datong River and arrive in Xijing. Master, do you have any opinions?"
"It's feasible!" Miaoqing agreed simply.
"good!"
After saying this, Gu Chao left and quickly sent the good news back.
June 25, Cangzhou.
Li Gang was fishing. Since the peace talks between Song and Jin Dynasties, he had been more leisurely.
Zhang Suo hurried over and said, "Ms. Li, Mr. Qin is here."
"Xianggong Qin?" Li Gang was startled.
"Qin Hui."
"Why did he come to Cangzhou?" Li Gang was quite surprised.
"I said I have something important to see you for."
Li Gang put away his fishing rod, stood up, and returned to the government office. He originally planned to change his clothes, but unexpectedly Qin Hui came over.
"I've met Mr. Li!" Qin Hui was very enthusiastic, with a smile on his face.
He was in power, and Li Gang was the deputy privy envoy, with the same rank, but Qin Hui behaved like a junior, without any airs.
"You're welcome, Mr. Qin." Li Gang was a little embarrassed, so he simply stopped changing his clothes, handed the fishing rod to the people below, and walked in with Qin Hui.
"Why did Qin Xianggong suddenly come to Cangzhou? I didn't receive the notice and couldn't go far to welcome him."
"Ms. Li is so polite. In front of Mr. Li, I am a junior." Qin Hui picked up a handful of tea leaves on the table and gently placed them in front of Li Gang. "This is a little tea from my home. I asked someone to pick it in Shu."
It's not a valuable item. It's disrespectful to think that Mr. Li is having a hard time in Cangzhou."
"That's so polite. Thank you, Mr. Qin." Li Gang smiled.
It is indeed not a valuable item. If it were a valuable item, Li Gang would not dare to accept it.
How do you say Qin Hui has great connections?
He did a thorough research on Li Gang and finally chose this tea.
What people like Li Gang value is that the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water, and he is a true gentleman. Giving gifts is really giving gifts, rather than taking the opportunity to bribe.
"What brings Mr. Qin here?"
"The Kingdom of Goryeo killed the imperial envoy and attacked the Liaodong Army. Do you know about this?"
"I heard about it."
"That's why I'm here. Your Majesty sent me here."
"oh?"
"His Majesty has asked Han Shizhong to gather troops to prepare for the attack on Goryeo, but he is worried that Han Shizhong's troops are insufficient and the Jin people will take advantage of him, so he wants Li Xianggong to borrow troops."
"This is a simple matter, how much does it cost?"
"Say less than 20,000."
"Twenty thousand Imperial Guards?"
"That's right."
"There are a total of 30,000 imperial troops in Cangzhou, and taking away 20,000 is quite a lot!" Li Gang took a deep breath.
"Don't worry, Xianggong Li. Your Majesty has also made arrangements for Fucheng. Nothing will happen to Cangzhou."
Li Gang immediately understood and said: "That's it, let's transfer him. Anyway, I have a lot of leisure time in Cangzhou."
"If Mr. Li hadn't guarded Cangzhou, the overall situation would have been in danger long ago. It seems to be peaceful, but in fact it is the magic needle that anchors the sea on the eastern front!"
Qin Hui's words made even Li Gang very happy.
"Xiangong Qin hasn't eaten yet, let's go and have dinner together."
By the time Han Shizhong sent someone to borrow troops, Qin Hui had already done it for him.
After dinner with Li Gang, Qin Hui said: "I am also going to Liaodong this time, and even to Goryeo."
"Oh?" Li Gang was quite surprised, "You are in power, so you still need to go there in person?"
"To be honest with Mr. Li, your Majesty is preparing this time..." Qin Hui made a clicking gesture, "There will be no Korea in the future, only the Anton Protectorate."
On June 30, the first batch of Song troops left Duli City by boat and headed for the Datong River.
