Chapter 312: Secret talks in the palace, dialogue between monarch and ministers
"Pusandhuo, how do you think the peace talks should be conducted this time?" After a moment, Wanyan Yong asked slowly.
On the way here, he was secretly wondering why His Majesty was looking for him alone. After much deliberation, he must have something to do with the Song Dynasty envoy and his party. Therefore, when Wanyan Yong asked, he thought for a moment and said he was respectful.
He opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, I think peace should be the main thing this time."
"Oh?" Wanyan Yong chuckled, "Why focus on peace? Recently, many people have told me that the Song Dynasty is weak, and our Kingdom of Jin only needs to carry a cavalry south to conquer that country.
I take the land south of the Yangtze River as my own, and if you say peace is the main priority, I’m afraid many people will oppose it.”
After hearing Wan Yanyong's words, Pu Sanzhuo not only did not panic, but also felt confident in his heart. If His Majesty did not agree with his opinion, he could just refute it directly, so why go around in circles? Obviously, the emperor also preferred it in his heart.
The main thing is peace, but I don't know how to get all the subordinates to agree.
Thinking of this, Pusanzhuo spoke confidently: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being presumptuous. Comparing the two countries, it is true that we are stronger and the enemy is weaker, but I, Dajin, have not yet swallowed up the power of the Southern Kingdom. Not long ago, Si
The Battle of Zhou has already shown this. Although the Southern Kingdom is weak, it still has the power to resist."
"If our army goes south and uses your majesty's power to attack the Song Dynasty, we will naturally be able to win. However, I, Dajin, will probably have to pay a heavy price. From what I can see, at least for now, we have to pay a heavy price.
It is not cost-effective to take over the Southern Kingdom at such a price."
He raised his head and glanced at Wan Yanyong carefully, but saw that Wan Yanyong was noncommittal to his words and had no intention of speaking. He continued: "Although your Majesty has the ambition of Yao and Shun, after all, the time to take the throne is still short.
, Therefore, the country is not stable at all. His Majesty decreed to calm the people, and in more than a year, the unrest among the people in the country has indeed been greatly reduced, but according to statistics, there are still nearly twenty places."
"These rebel armies, ranging from thousands to hundreds, are bringing chaos to the people. Even if your Majesty quells it quickly, it will have a big impact on the people. Therefore, I think that what I need now is
, it is not about rapid expansion, but we should first stabilize the whole country. When the whole country is united, whether it is the Southern Song Dynasty, Xixia, Mongolia, etc., who can stop the direction of my great golden cavalry? "
After finishing speaking, Pusanzhuo stopped and waited for Wanyanyong's response.
After a while, Wanyan Yong finally said, "Pu Sanzhuo, what you said is right. Apart from what you said, who else, including Gao Cunfu who went to Beijing, doesn't know? It's just that no one dares to say it clearly."
"Now our Kingdom of Jin seems to be powerful, but there are many internal and external enemies. Not to mention ordinary rebellions, Gao Cunfu is a thorn in his side. If we don't eradicate it completely, I will feel uneasy!"
"In addition, Xiliao sent an envoy to Xixia not long ago. Although I don't know what the two countries talked about for the time being, I heard the news that an army from Xiliao secretly entered the territory of Xixia. Its purpose is obvious.
In addition, although the Mongolian tribes are divided into groups, their combat power is very strong. Among them, the Jilijisi tribe, the Oyici tribe, the Bachu tribe, the Wanggu tribe, etc., are all annexing the surrounding areas at an extremely fast speed.
Small tribes to strengthen their own strength."
"It would be okay if they continue to have a civil war, but if they form a unified tribe, they will become the biggest enemy of our Kingdom of Jin."
What Wan Yanyong said is true. A few decades later, when the Mongols were unified, they directly became a nightmare for all the surrounding countries. Whether it was the Jin Kingdom, the Song Dynasty, the Western Liao Dynasty, or the Western Xia Dynasty, they were all swallowed up by this behemoth.
.
"So, before facing these powerful enemies, we in Daikin must first eliminate all hidden dangers."
"It is true that we have a hostile relationship with the Song State. However, in fact, in my heart, the Song State is the only country that does not require us to spend too much thought."
"The Central Plains dynasty is very strange. If no one bullies them, they will be in chaos internally. It is not surprising that their own people will rebel and attack their own people, or even directly overthrow the dynasty. However, when a foreign enemy invades
, no matter how weak the country is, someone will stand up. Even if they know it is death, they will die for the country! Therefore, this country seems to be weak, but it is precisely because they prefer Jiangnan and are not too worried about foreign invasion. "
"If my army, Daijin, really threatens their survival, and they rise up to resist, causing Daijin to be defeated, I will not be surprised at all."
"Therefore, instead of expending effort or paying a huge price to target the Southern Kingdom, it is better to let it cause chaos. In this way, at least the southern border of our Jin Kingdom will be as stable as Mount Tai in a short period of time!"
"Your Majesty is truly knowledgeable and insightful, and I admire you very much!" Pusanzhuo said respectfully.
"Haha..." Pu Sanzhuo's words made Wanyanyong laugh at himself, "Are you really knowledgeable? That's not necessarily true. Look at the civil and military officials in this dynasty, who is not a very smart person? What I said, they are really
Can’t you see it?”
When Pu Sanzhuo heard this, he smiled awkwardly, "How can there be a mediocre person who can set foot in the court?"
"This...maybe the ministers have some concerns."
"Pa!" The things on the table next to Wan Yanyong were swept to the ground by him, "Worry? I don't think it's worry, it's calculation! It's not surprising even if it's harboring evil intentions!"
Pusanzhuo's expression changed drastically, and he stood up and knelt down on the ground.
Wan Yanyong turned a blind eye and just continued to say in a cold voice: "Who among the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty does not have their own plans? The Jiagu Mo family has been secretly doing business with the Mongolian tribes for who knows how long. My right marshal controls the army.
Chen Bing at the border took the opportunity to massacre the common people for military glory, and the people in the imperial city rebelled! They really thought I was a fool!"
"In my court, I will kill everyone one by one. There may be people who are wronged, but there will definitely be no wrong people!"
"Okay, get up! I'm just losing my temper here. Could it be that I can really chop off their heads?" At this moment, Wan Yanyong, a powerful man, had a look of helplessness on his face.
.
"My lord, I'm scared!" Pu Sanzhuo kowtowed again, and then stood up tremblingly.
"Pu Sanzhuo, tomorrow, I decree that when the peace talks between Song and Jin begin, you will be the leader! You can decide the other candidates by yourself! However, please remember not to directly reveal my bottom line. I also want to see
Let’s see who will jump out again. I will sharpen my knife once and see blood in the end!”
