Chapter 483: Come back to Zhongdu and meet the Golden Emperor
Chapter 483: Come to Zhongdu again and meet the Golden Emperor
After arriving in Zhuozhou, Shen Tang first asked Wanyan Yue's guards to go to Zhongdu to report, while he stayed in Zhuozhou overnight to wait for the news.
In the early morning of the next day, when Shen Tang woke up, he found that his old friend Pu Sanzhuo had arrived at the inn and was waiting for him!
"I've met Lord Pusanzhuo!"
"Hahaha, General, why should you be so polite!"
The two of them can be considered old friends, so after chatting for a while, Shen Tang said bluntly: "Sir, Shen Tang came here this time on orders to see His Majesty. I wonder if His Majesty can summon him?"
"Hahaha!"
Pusanzhuo laughed loudly and said, "Let's go, we will set off immediately. When we arrive in Zhongdu, we will go directly to the palace to meet His Majesty.
If it were someone else, they would naturally have to wait, but you are not only the general of our Kingdom of Jin, but also the princess’s consort. When you come to Zhongdu, isn’t it the same as going home?”
With that said, the group left the inn and headed north to Zhongdu City.
Zhuozhou is only a hundred miles away from Zhongdu City, so it was not yet noon when everyone entered Zhongdu City.
Just as Pu Sanzhuo said, he did not place Shen Tang there, but took him directly into the city and outside the palace!
"General, please wait here for a moment. I will report to Your Majesty immediately."
Pusanzhuo said.
Shen Tang nodded, "Thank you, sir!"
Pu Sanzhuo went forward, while Shen Tang waited at the city gate.
However, in less than half an hour, I saw the eunuch Agui hurriedly left.
Shen Tang nodded and followed Agui into the palace!
After making many twists and turns, the two of them arrived in front of the Jiying Hall.
"Sir, why is Your Majesty in Jiying Hall?"
Shen Tang asked somewhat differently, this Jiying Hall is also one of the side halls next to Da'an Hall, but Wan Yanyong rarely comes here.
Agui hesitated for a moment, and then, seeing no one around him, he said in a low voice and very quickly, "The battle in Beijing was not going well. His Majesty got angry and left the other two halls in a mess. Therefore, your Majesty is in Jiying Hall today."
Shen Tang nodded slightly, but did not ask any more questions.
The confrontation with Gao Cunfu has been going on for a long time. However, Shangjing is the foundation of Gao Cunfu's business for many years. In addition, Gao Cunfu has many troops gathered in his hands. Now Wanyan Hao is sitting outside Shangjing. It is indeed difficult to eradicate Gao Cunfu in one fell swoop.
However, this is beneficial to Shen Tang's request this time.
Because, in addition to other promises, Shen Tang wanted to help Wan Yanyong solve the problem of going to Beijing.
First of all, if you don't come up with something real and just make a promise out of thin air, it's not sure whether Wan Yanyong can agree to lend troops to Shen Tang.
After all, Wan Yanyong is no fool, and of course he knows everything about the empty hand.
As for the second one, no matter what, now that he and Wanyan Yue are married, Wanyan Hao has become his father-in-law.
Therefore, helping his father-in-law to capture Shangjing can be regarded as a gift to his wife.
"Your Majesty, the general is here!"
Arriving at the entrance of the main hall, Agui entered to report, while Shen Tang waited outside the door.
"Master Shen, come in!"
After a while, Agui walked out and said to Shen Tang who was waiting.
Shen Tang followed Agui into the main hall, while Wan Yanyong sat upright, waiting for Shen Tang to arrive.
"My dear, Shen Tang, I have met His Majesty!"
Shen Tang bowed deeply.
"Shen Tang!"
Seeing Shen Tang, a rare smile appeared on Wan Yanyong's face, "I thought that because you deceived my princess, you wouldn't dare to come see me."
After hearing Wan Yanyong's words, Shen Tang couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Indeed, according to etiquette, after he got married to Wanyan Yue, he did have to come to the Kingdom of Jin to get married. However, he has only come back now, and it still has other purposes.
"My dear, forgive me!"
"Hahaha, okay, speaking of it, I still need to thank you for the matter in Xijing.
If you hadn't gone to Xijing, things on the western border would have been troublesome this time."
Wan Yanyong smiled and said, "Okay, sit down!"
After Shen Tang sat down, Wan Yanyong asked directly, "Shen Tang, you must have something to do here this time.
Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't come to Zhongdu.
Moreover, this time you came alone, without even bringing Yongqing?"
"Your Majesty, Yongqing is accompanying his mother in Daming Mansion. Later, when he has some free time, I will come with Yongqing to pay homage to Your Majesty."
Although Wan Yanyong is not Wan Yan Yue's father, he cares for her even more than Wan Yan Hao, his father. Therefore, even if the couple comes to visit Wan Yan Yong as a junior, Things that should be taken for granted.
"Well, Shen Tang, Yongqing is my favorite princess.
Since she has chosen to follow you, although I don't want to, I don't want to make Yongqing sad either.
However, I hope you will not treat Yongqing badly, otherwise, let alone Shen Tang, even your Song Dynasty cannot afford this price."
Shen Tang nodded vigorously. In fact, there was no need for Wan Yanyong to speak.
Now that Wanyan Yue is his wife, he will definitely treat her sincerely.
Moreover, Shen Tang has always kept Wanyan Yue's deep affection for him in his heart and dare not forget it lightly.
For such an infatuated woman, if he really makes her sad and disappointed, it will definitely be his own fault.
"Okay, tell me why you came to see me this time!"
Wanyanyong said calmly.
Shen Tang bowed and saluted, and then said, "Your Majesty, your Majesty should be aware of the fact that the Song Dynasty is currently at war with Tubo."
"Well, I heard the report.
Nowadays, the western part of your Song Dynasty is a bit dangerous. Although the Tubo people are not in my eyes, their fighting power is not weak.
This time we are all out to attack the Song Dynasty. I am afraid that Zhao Shen is having a headache about this."
How could the Jin Kingdom have no news about such a major event?
"So, your coming to see me this time is related to the affairs of the Tubo clan?"
Wan Yanyong asked.
Shen Tang nodded slowly, "Yes, I came here to see His Majesty this time on the orders of His Majesty the Song Dynasty.
The purpose is to invite your country to jointly attack the Tubo tribe!"
There is no need to beat around the bush on this matter, and it may even arouse Wanyanyong's dissatisfaction.
Therefore, it is better to say it directly, at least to appear magnanimous.
"oh?"
Wanyan Yong chuckled, but there was no sign of surprise on his face. He just looked at Shen Tang indifferently, and after a moment he said, "You mean, you want me, the Kingdom of Jin, to send troops to help you." Song Dynasty, put down the Tubo rebellion?"
