After a while, Song Huizong walked in wearing a dragon robe, followed by Liang Shicheng.
"I pay my respects to the emperor. Long live my emperor, long live, long live."
Li Qi, Wang Fu, and Zhao Liangsi saluted. But the three Jin envoys performed the Jin etiquette to Song Huizong, without any respect at all.
Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty sat on the dragon throne and said majestically: "Everyone loves you all your life."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The Song and Jin sides each stood on one side.
Li Qi raised his head and saw a trace of sadness on Song Huizong's eyebrows. He sighed to himself, if you had been more energetic, you wouldn't be at a loss now.
Song Huizong glanced at everyone and saw Zhao Jing, Wang Cidu with a sullen expression, Salu's mother with a proud expression, and Li Qi with a smile on his face. He was confused and thought to himself, could it be that I missed something again? ? He coughed slightly and said: "I am very grateful to the three distinguished guests for their hard work and hard work for the sake of the friendship between Song and Jin countries."
Li Jing nodded and said: "Your Majesty is serious, this is a matter within our scope."
Song Huizong smiled slightly and said again: "Zhao Aiqing."
"Wei Chen is here."
"Did you gain anything from your mission to the Kingdom of Jin?"
Zhao Liangsi said in fear: "This humble minister has betrayed the divine grace, so please ask the emperor to punish him."
Day. These ministers are really actors. They were so calm just now, but now they seem like a disaster is coming. I am really convinced. Li Qi feels that his acting skills are really far behind compared to them.
"oh?"
Song Huizong turned to look at Li Jing and others.
Li Jing stood up and said: "Your Majesty, although your country did not abide by the covenant and did not attack Liao with our country, our Lord has a broad mind and does not want to care about this matter, so as not to hurt the harmony between the two countries, and is still willing to send Yanjing to A generation of old Han Dynasty will be returned to your country. At the same time, I also hope that your majesty can pay the annual coins to our country as promised."
The Sui coins he mentioned had already been decided upon when the maritime treaty was signed. The Song Dynasty promised to pay the same amount of Sui coins to Liao as it had paid to the Jin Kingdom.
"Wait a minute."
As soon as Li Jing finished speaking, Wang Fu stood up and said: "We have already explained clearly about the covenant. At that time, when the Song Dynasty was preparing to send troops to attack Liao Dynasty, it happened that Fang La's traitors in the south were causing trouble. The Holy Emperor had no choice but to make a temporary decision. He changed his mind and sent troops to suppress it, so that he did not attack Liao as promised. This was a misunderstanding, not a defeat of the alliance. Why is it that you, the Jin Kingdom, are holding on to this matter? Moreover, you, the Jin Kingdom, did not notify us of sending troops."
Li Jing smiled slightly and said: "Your Excellency, Mr. Wang, you and I know what is right and wrong. After signing the alliance, your country promised to send an envoy to Dajin to discuss the plan to attack Liao, but my lord has been waiting for several months. . But we still haven’t waited for your envoys to come. If you had sent envoys to inform my lord at that time, my lord would have forgiven you, and that would be fine. Later, my lord sent envoys to inquire, and you Que Kang our envoy. How do you explain this? As for me, Da Jin, sending troops to attack Liao unilaterally, it is because the civil strife in Liao is an excellent opportunity to send troops, but you are undecided. Do I still want to do this? Tell my lord to continue waiting? And I also heard that you defeated the alliance because the Liao Kingdom discovered that we signed the alliance and you were afraid of the Liao Kingdom's revenge."
After Li Jing finished scolding him, Li Qi was sweating profusely. He was tired. You can do this kind of thing and detain the gold envoy. Is there anything worse than this bastard? I am really convinced. You md want to attack Just make up your mind to attack, or don't sign the alliance. Well, now that we are not in trouble, we can't fight again and again, and neither side is human. This is nonsense. I have never seen anything like this in my life. Bad negotiation.
Song Huizong looked a little embarrassed and winked at Wang Fu.
Wang Fu hummed: "We detained your envoy, and it was all his own fault. He came to the palace in front of the civil and military officials of the court and questioned me on the pilgrimage. If I don't give him some punishment, where is the majesty of the Song Dynasty?"
Song Huizong nodded and said: "Yes, I don't want to do this, but your envoy is really too rude. I only punished him with small punishments, and I didn't treat him badly."
Wang Cidu suddenly laughed and said: "You are teasing my lord like this. No one else would be angry. Even if our envoys have inappropriate words, you should take the overall situation into consideration and explain the truth clearly. How can you do that?"
When the critical moment comes, if our envoys are overbearing, if my lord is like you, then we won't come at all." As he spoke, his tone became stronger.
Song Huizong's ability to withstand external pressure was almost zero. Seeing the Jin envoys being so tough, he was immediately frightened and said with a smile: "Although this is a misunderstanding, we did not do it properly in some places. Fortunately, there is a misunderstanding now."
It has been clearly explained, so let’s not mention it again, so as not to hurt the harmony between the two countries, let’s talk about business first.”
Li Jing saw that Song Huizong had relented, and his face became even more proud, saying: "As I said just now, my lord has agreed to transfer Yanjing, Zhuozhou, Yizhou, Tanzhou, Shunzhou, Jingzhou, and Jizhou regardless of past grudges.
, returned to you."
Wang Fu didn't wait for Li Jing to finish and asked: "What about Yun, Ying, Ping, Luan and other places?"
Li Jing said: "We have already made this clear. When Dr. Zhao brought His Majesty's written edict to our country, it clearly stated that Yanjing and other ancient Han lands were written on it, while Xijing and other places did not belong to Yanjing.
, Ping and Luan are not the old Han lands, and my lord also acted as promised."
All of this was due to a clerical error by Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty. If he had not written Yanyun as Yanjing, then the Jin Kingdom would have had no excuse not to return the old land of Xijing.
Li Qi shook his head when he heard this, and thought to himself, you are treating such a big event like child's play, sending envoys to negotiate without even knowing the geographical location, ugh.
Zhao Liangsi said angrily: "When I went this time, I showed my credentials to the emperor of your country, explained clearly, and stated that the Xijing generation also belongs to Yanjing."
Xijing of the Liao Kingdom was also called Yunzhou.
Wang Fu also said: "Yes, Yun, Ying, Ping, and Luansi Prefectures were captured by Yelu Abaoji, the Taizu of the Liao Dynasty, from Liu Rengong, and Xijing was captured by the traitor Shi Jingtang, the Emperor Taizong of the Liao Dynasty. They should belong to our Song Dynasty."
Li Jing smiled and said: "This is just your one-sided statement. Since the covenant we signed originally said that we are of the Yanjing generation, it should be implemented as promised. You are so inconsistent, I think you have no sincerity."
Zhao Liangsi argued: "If the Holy One is not sincere, why did you ask me to go to your country several times? I think it is you who are not sincere."
Li Jing smiled and said: "Doctor Zhao, please don't be angry. My master sent me here not to discuss this matter. Besides, we don't have the power to make the decision. I am here to discuss the taxation of the Yanjing generation."
question."
When Zhao Liangsi heard this, his face was full of anger and he said to Song Huizong: "Your Majesty, you must never agree to this matter."
Taxes? What's going on? Li Qi was confused.
Li Jing snorted disdainfully and said: "When our two countries jointly attacked the Liao Dynasty, each of them originally took half of the Liao Kingdom, but now all the five capitals of the Liao Kingdom have been captured by me. You can't even capture a mere Yanjing.
, now it’s up to us to send troops to help you capture it, and the local taxes will naturally belong to our Kingdom of Jin.”
Day. This is too greedy. Even taxes are required, so you might as well not give them. Li Qi was very angry when he heard this. He was already very unhappy when he saw such things in books. Now he encounters them in real life.
Li Qi wanted to call Ma Qiao in. Hai Bian and the others were stunned. But after calming down, he suddenly thought that not long ago, Zhong Shidao told him that Tong Guan's second attack on Yanjing was defeated.
Now Yanjing has been captured by the Jin Kingdom. I sighed secretly, the Jin soldiers were really brave and they defeated it so quickly. It seems that the records in the history books are correct. Tong Guan really asked the Jin Kingdom for help.
Zhao Liangsi argued: "There is no reason for this. Since ancient times, taxes have been paid everywhere. How can there be no reason to get land but not pay taxes?"
Salu's mother said with a displeased look: "The land of Yan was captured by our army. The taxes and taxes will naturally belong to me, Dajin. If you are unwilling, then there is no need to continue the discussion."
When Wang Fu heard this, he thought it was okay, and the duck in his mouth was about to fly away. He hurriedly said: "Everything is easy to discuss and easy to discuss. Your Excellency, please don't say such hurtful words."
Day. Didn’t you really agree to them? It’s obviously robbing. It’s so deceiving. Li Qi really didn’t want to hear any more. His hair almost stood up in anger, and he was almost bleeding from his seven holes.
.
A weak country has no diplomacy.
After Zhao Liangsi heard this, he sighed deeply and became speechless.
Li Jing sighed: "Master Wang Xiang, we are also acting under orders. I hope you can understand."
"Yes, I know that." Wang Fu nodded and glanced at Song Huizong again. He saw that his face was extremely ugly and he was sitting on the dragon chair in silence. Normally, he would not dare to disturb Song Huizong, but at this time
There is no way, you are the boss, you have to make a decision, and carefully asked: "Your Majesty, what do you think?"
Song Huizong sighed and was about to speak when he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be another person who had not spoken. He glanced at Li Qi and saw him hiding behind with a depressed look on his face. He said, "Is the official Yan Envoy here?
"
Li Qi was still scolding her and didn't even notice.
When Song Huizong saw that Li Qi was ignoring him, he said in a deep voice: "Is the official Yan envoy here?"
Zhao Liangsi quickly pulled down Li Qi's sleeve. Li Qi was slightly startled, then reacted and asked hurriedly: "What's the matter?"
Song Huizong was secretly angry, but now he had no time to argue with him about these matters, and asked: "What do you think of this matter?"
"ah?"
Li Qi looked at Song Huizong with wide eyes.
Song Huizong said sullenly: "I ordered you to come to negotiate, and I didn't just want you to stay here in a daze."
Yesterday, that’s not what the person who had a penis said that yesterday. I have the right to remain silent. Li Qi glanced at Song Huizong in embarrassment and asked me not to say anything, okay?
Song Huizong glared slightly, indicating that you must say it.
Damn it! You made such a big mess and asked me to wipe your butts. Can you be more shameless?
Li Qi scratched his head and thought to himself, you asked me to say it. If I say it wrong later, don’t blame me. Now he almost understood the whole thing clearly. After thinking about it, he glanced at the three
Seeing the arrogance on their faces, the gold envoy thought, since it has reached this point anyway, he might as well break the pot and be tougher, and lose money instead of losing people. Suddenly he laughed, which shocked everyone present.
I could only hear him saying loudly: "I have long heard that you Jin people are arrogant and unreasonable. I never thought that this method of confusing right and wrong is even more extraordinary. You are so thick-skinned, I really feel ashamed of myself."
Wang Fu was startled, and his heart almost jumped out of his chest. What on earth did this boy want to do?
