Shen Tang, Liu Xiangling, the iron-blooded traitor in the Southern Song Dynasty Chapter 748: The Book of the Kingdom of the Golden Kingdom, the Golden Emperor's Award?
Chapter 748: The Book of the Kingdom of the Golden Kingdom, the Golden Emperor's Award?
Chapter 748: Letter of Credence from the Kingdom of Jin, a reward from the Golden Emperor?
However, there are also officials but no positions! Although Shi Hao is on good terms with Shen Tang, there are differences between civil and military affairs! Especially now that Shen Tang has become almost the most outstanding representative of the military, so even Shi Hao will not risk Da Bu'e was too inclined to Shen Tang.
Zhao Shen, who was sitting on the dragon throne, was extremely angry when he heard this. If he really awarded a reward like this, wouldn't it chill the hearts of thousands of soldiers?
Who will contribute to the imperial court in the future?
However, what made him even more angry was that under the opposition of almost all civil and military officials in the dynasty, he, the emperor, could not act on his own will! Especially when Shi Hao also sided with the civil servants.
"Report!"
At this moment, a long roar suddenly came!
Zhao Shen was slightly startled, and Wang Quan beside him hurriedly walked out, and after a while, he walked into the hall again.
"Your Majesty, there is a report of a fast horse in the Kingdom of Jin. It is the credential of the Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin to congratulate our victory on the Chengdu Prefecture of the Song Dynasty!"
Wang Quan said with a bit of joy.
"oh?"
Zhao Shen also showed a bit of joy on his face, "Go quickly and bring it up!"
Outside the main hall, a chamberlain held the certificate of credence and respectfully handed it into the hands of the king!
"Open……"
After opening the certificate of credence, Zhao Shen looked at it. Not to mention other words, most of them were polite words of congratulations.
However, this already made Zhao Shen very satisfied. After all, when had the Kingdom of Jin ever put the Song Dynasty in its eyes?
And now, although it is just a letter of congratulations, it also expresses the importance that the Jin Kingdom attaches to the Song Dynasty.
However, one of the points made Zhao Shen frown!
“I feel that Shen Tang’s great achievement is a blessing to the Song Dynasty, but it is also a blessing to our country of Jin.
Therefore, I hereby appoint Shen Tang as the left supervisor of the Marshal's Mansion to conquer Xibo!"
Zhao Shen raised his eyebrows and said to himself, "This Wanyan Yong actually overstepped his authority. My minister, do you need you to consecrate him?"
However, the next moment, a faint smile appeared in the corners of his eyes. Although Jin Guo's canonization of Shen Tang made him feel a little dissatisfied, at this moment, it was beneficial to him.
Next, we have to see what the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty should say. Even an unrelated person like the Jin Kingdom canonized Shen Tang in this way. If Shen Tang has made such great contributions to the Song Dynasty, is it possible that the reward in the Song Dynasty is actually higher than that of the Jin Dynasty? Is the country inferior?
"Go and circulate it to all officials!"
Zhao Shen handed the certificate of credence to Wang Quan calmly, and then said to Shi Hao, "Shi Aiqing, this time we fought in the Chengdu Mansion of the Song Dynasty, thanks to the help of the Jin State twice. If not for the help of the Jin State, we would have defeated I'm afraid Chengdu Prefecture will still have some troubles.
Therefore, we will need to send envoys to Dadu later to bring gifts to thank the Kingdom of Jin."
"My lord, I obey the order!"
This is understandable. Everyone knows that without the soldiers and horses of the Jin Kingdom, the Song Dynasty will definitely be in big trouble this time. Even Shen Tang cannot drive away the Tubo people with bare hands.
"As for what kind of gift is needed, Shi Aiqing will discuss it with the Ministry of Rites first, and then let me know in the end!"
As Zhao Shen spoke, the officials circulated the credentials of the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom.
After everyone read it, their faces were a bit strange and thoughtful! There was nothing much to say in other words of congratulations, but the reward given to Shen Tang by the Kingdom of Jin was a bit strange.
The Jin Kingdom actually rewarded the ministers of the Song Dynasty first, and the reason was that the Song Dynasty stabilized Chengdu. This is a bit incredible no matter how you look at it.
After everyone finished watching, Zhao Shen said calmly, "Everyone, what do you think?"
After a moment of silence, an official from the Ministry of Rites suddenly came out and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom actually went beyond his authority to confer a title on a minister of the Song Dynasty. It is really rude! Therefore, I believe that first of all, we should directly refuse the canonization of the Jin State, and secondly, , should send envoys to rebuke the Golden Emperor..."
As soon as this statement came out, I don’t know how many people rolled their eyes.
What a loud tone to rebuke the Golden Emperor?
Who dares to go?
I'm afraid, you have healed your scar and forgot about the pain. Have you forgotten the days when the Song Dynasty was trembling under the iron cavalry of the Jin Kingdom?
Recently, the two countries have finally made good relations with each other, and the borders between the two countries are also in harmony. The Jin Kingdom even lent troops to the Song Dynasty.
How long has it been since?
Is the Song Dynasty going to break this peace?
"Well! What Ai Qing said makes sense!"
Zhao Shen sneered and said, "In that case, let Aiqing handle this matter.
I will write a letter of credence to rebuke the Emperor of Jin. It is up to you to go and read it to the Emperor of Jin in person, and directly ask him to take back the reward given to Shen Tang!"
"ah……"
This person originally mentioned this matter at Liu Heyu's suggestion, but now Zhao Shen's words made him dumbfounded.
It's okay to say it's natural, but do you really go to the Kingdom of Jin to rebuke the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin?
Even if he had ten heads, it wouldn't be enough to chop him off, okay! Moreover, rejecting Shen Tang's reward?
Wouldn’t that offend Shen Tang greatly?
In the Song Dynasty, he was naturally fearless. After all, Shen Tang couldn't just drag him out and chop off his head.
However, the Daming Mansion guard was Shen Tang's father-in-law, and he was also one of the most trusted feudal officials of the Jin Kingdom.
If he really dared to go forward, he might not even be able to pass Daming Mansion and would be killed directly.
Moreover, no one, whether it is Zhao Shen or the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, will avenge him!
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." The man hurriedly bowed down and didn't know how to speak.
"snort!"
Zhao Shen snorted coldly, "Although the Kingdom of Jin is a foreign country, their emperor is also respected. This letter of credence is originally to celebrate our Song Dynasty's stability in Chengdu. As for the award of Shen Tang, although it is a bit excessive, it is reasonable. among.
If what you say is true, it will not only damage the relationship between our two countries, but also make the northern border become a crisis again. By then, who can shoulder this responsibility?
is it you?
Or can you lead the troops to guard the North?"
"I am aware of my guilt..." How dare this man say anything?
It's important to please your boss, but if you're going to die, it's definitely not worth it.
"Your Majesty, sir!"
At this time, Zhang Jun suddenly left work.
"As Your Majesty said, it is only reasonable for the Golden Emperor to reward Lord Shen.
After all, everyone knew that the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom valued Master Shen, and he had also conferred the title of General Shen Tangfeng at the beginning.
However, after all, Shen Tang is a minister of the Song Dynasty, so it is only reasonable that the reward of the Song Dynasty should be higher than that of the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom.
In this way, the Golden Emperor will have nothing to say, and all the soldiers will be grateful for His Majesty's kindness."
During the discussion just now, Zhang Jun wanted to speak, but was interrupted by the sudden credential.
Now, with a reasonable chance, how could he hold back?
"What Zhang Aiqing said makes sense! So, dear friends, please continue to talk about how to award the reward appropriately?
After all, we ministers of the Song Dynasty cannot let the Kingdom of Jin take the lead!"
