"Who is this person, and why do you feel so familiar with him?"
Mu Yanfengguan was dumbfounded, naturally not knowing that the person in front of him was the Song general Zhao Fan whom he wanted to get rid of.
However, Mu Yanfeng Guan was not an ordinary person after all. He stabilized his mind a little, regained his demeanor, and then ignored all this. He looked straight, strode forward, and finally walked to the center of the hall.
Mu Yanfeng Guan raised his eyes and saw that the person sitting above him was very majestic and full of energy, his eyes were sharp and deep, and the aura of a superior person was clearly evident.
Mu Yanfengguan was shocked and couldn't help but compare Zhao Yun with Emperor Wanyan Shouxu of the Jin Kingdom. This comparison was like a comparison between heaven and earth.
"Hey, there's a difference between clouds and mud."
With a sigh in his heart, Mu Yanfengguan raised his hand to Zhao Yun, with a proud look on his face, and said: "Mu Yanfengguan, the envoy of the Jin Kingdom, has met His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty."

Zhao Yun glanced at him, with a calm expression, and said: "Mu Yanfengguan, I heard that your name has a lot of origins. You got it from the Emperor of Jin, who killed his beloved concubine in front of him. Your loyalty and bravery are mine.
I appreciate it very much, please sit down."
Immediately, two chamberlains carried a chair over and asked Mu Yan Fengguan to sit on it.
Mu Yanfengguan raised his hand to express his thanks, but did not take his seat.
He politely declined and said: "I have been ordered to go to the Song Dynasty as an envoy. My responsibility is more important than a thousand pieces of gold. I dare not neglect it at all. It is better to stand and speak."
"That being the case, I won't force you. Tell me, why did you come to Song Dynasty?"
Mu Yanfengguan knew that the opportunity was rare and no longer dared to hold on to Zhao Fan's affairs.
So Mu Yanfengguan got straight to the point and said: "His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, this envoy came here on the orders of my master Lang, hoping to form an alliance with the Song Dynasty and fight against the Mongols together."
After hearing this, Zhao Yun raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a contemptuous smile.
Everything was as expected.
Zhao Yun said: "We, the Song Dynasty, have a vast land and rich resources, billions of people, civil servants like clouds, fierce generals like rain, and millions of warriors. Why do we still want to form an alliance with your Kingdom of Jin?"
Zhao Yun responded calmly, and Mu Yanfengguan's expression tightened and he said: "Although the Song Dynasty was slightly stronger than in previous years, the Mongolian army was at its peak, powerful in battle, and brutal and cruel. They slaughtered countless cities along the way. I won't mention the ones from far away.
Recently, the Xia Kingdom has been destroyed by him, the army and the people are slaughtered, and the whole country is hard to find any survivors!
Now Mongolia poses a great threat to the Jin Kingdom. If the Jin Kingdom cannot support itself and perishes, then Mongolia will directly face the Song Dynasty across the river, and the Song Dynasty will directly face the threat of Mongolia.
It is said that the Song Dynasty and the Jin Kingdom have become interdependent. If they cannot jointly deal with the threat from Mongolia, one day the Song Dynasty will be defeated by the iron hoof of the Mongols.
For the present plan, only if the Jin and Song Dynasties form an alliance to jointly fight against the Mongols and form the ancient three kingdoms, can we preserve the country and continue the ancestral temple and the country. I ask His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty to think twice."
"Hehehe,,,"
Zhao Yun laughed a few times and said: "It seems that today you are going to imitate Zhuge and enter Wu, and you want to fight with the Confucian scholars."
After saying that, Zhao Yun glanced at the officials and said loudly: "In that case, all of you relatives can speak freely and come to meet this contemporary "Zhuge"."
As soon as Zhao Yun finished speaking, the officials who had long been dissatisfied with the Kingdom of Jin could no longer sit still. The first person to attack was Chen Longzhi, the Minister of Academic Affairs.
I saw Chen Longzhi coming out of class to salute Zhao Yun, and then with a serious face, he said to Mu Yanfengguan: "The reason why the Three Kingdoms were formed in ancient times was because the three kingdoms merged into one dynasty. However, the current situation is completely different. The feud between the Song and Jin Dynasties.
The hatred between the country and the family is like endless waves thousands of miles away. How can you ask our army and people of the Song Dynasty to fight side by side with your country of Jin!"
Mu Yanfengguan retorted and said: "The Han people have a saying, time has changed, and the current situation is also very different from the Three Kingdoms period. It is true that the Three Kingdoms came together in one dynasty, so no matter who wins in the end and takes over the world, it will not hinder the orthodoxy of the Han family
inheritance of status.
However, at this time, Mongolia was rising on the grassland, fighting in all directions and destroying countless countries. Did he ever claim to be the orthodox successor of the Han family? If he finally won and conquered the world, would the orthodox status of the Han family still exist? Can any of you answer this envoy?
!”
Chen Longzhi was speechless for a moment, but Mu Yanfengguan had the upper hand.
"No, no."
Zeng Yinglong stood up at this time and said to Mu Yanfengguan: "Your words are just a blind eye. The inheritance of the orthodox status of our Han family is the vastness of culture and the unparalleled benevolence and righteousness. All the foreign countries who admire our Han family dynasty
Small countries, this is what they respect.
Now a Mongolia has appeared, but so what? Does our Han Dynasty not allow other countries to appear? Does our Han Dynasty want to fight him now?
Let me ask you how many countries have appeared around the Han family for thousands of years. I am afraid there are not a thousand but eight hundred. As soon as they appear, we must kill them! If our Han dynasty is so virtuous, I am afraid that it will be a long time ago.
If they perished through military violence, how could they have inherited this legacy for thousands of years?"
"this."
Mu Yanfengguan's foundation for encouraging the two countries to form an alliance to fight against Mongolia was dug up by Zeng Yinglong with a shovel, and he was immediately speechless.
After hearing this, Zhao Yun also admired Zeng Yinglong quite a bit. Zeng Yinglong was indeed a man who had won the first prize, and his eloquence and thinking were indeed outstanding.
After thinking for a while, Mu Yanfengguan said: "Being prepared for danger in times of peace is an eternal truth. The power of Mongolia is completely different from that of thousands of other countries. I believe no one can refute this. If you take it lightly, you will definitely suffer backlash! You guys are busy in court.
Shouldn’t all the gentlemen be vigilant and take countermeasures to ensure safety?”
"absurd."
Cheng Ju, the envoy of the Third Division, went out and criticized Mu Yan Fengguan: "We can be vigilant and take countermeasures. This is what we in the Song Dynasty should do. However, if we want to involve enemy countries and other countries, our country will be destroyed."
Placing our hopes on other countries for our major policies is tantamount to rejecting tigers through the front door and letting in wolves through the back door. How is it any different from lingering on?"
"you,,,"
Mu Yanfengguan was speechless by Cheng Jue.
Wei Liaoweng, the Minister of War, said at this time: "How can the hatred between Song and Jin be resolved? If you are worried that your life will be threatened, you will join the enemy who killed your father, mother and family. You should not protect yourself in this way.
That’s fine.”
Jiang Chongzhen, the left minister of the Ministry of Punishment, also said: "Yes, a man is born in this world and has some things to do and some things not to do. If he lives for a living and is willing to be with the enemy, how is that any different from a walking corpse?"
"The Kingdom of Jin has been our Song Dynasty's enemy for generations. Our Song Dynasty did not join forces with the Mongols to destroy the Kingdom of Jin, so you are just trying to enjoy yourself. How can you talk about an alliance between Song and Jin?"
"Even if we, the Song Dynasty, are threatened, we should work hard and forge ahead with determination. Why should we form an alliance with you and humiliate our ancestors? No one in our Song Dynasty would care about such an act of security, let alone do it."
