Chapter 362: Songs and dances can be suspended for a while, and there is no hatred in subjugation
Youyun is equally important to Khitan.
As soon as Yang Lin finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Khitan ministers. Looking at his posture, if he hadn't wanted to beg him, he would have been kicked out long ago.
At this time, Gao Bing stood up with righteous words, looked around, and suddenly sighed: "You are all for your own glory and wealth, and ignore His Majesty.
Nowadays, the great Khitan country is full of clan rebellions, strong enemies outside and constant internal strife.
On this occasion, if millions of Song soldiers had not entered the country, how could they have saved the country?
Your Majesty is very perceptive and knows that this is necessary, but you block it. You just think that after the Jurchen Tatars are destroyed in the future, you will be able to enjoy glory and wealth by following other clan traitors. But what about Your Majesty?
The Khitan’s territory is twenty times that of the sixteen Youyun states, and the Liao orthodoxy is gone, so what’s the use of having these ten states!”
He spoke with such righteousness that Xiao Baoxian, an important Khitan minister in the palace, could no longer bear it.
"The high thief seduces the emperor, alienates the relationship between our monarch and his ministers, and harms the Liao Dynasty. I will fight with you!"
Xiao Baoxian was furious, and Yang Lin quickly stood up to stop him, stretched out his hand to grab him, and shouted: "Don't fight, be civilized, give me three points of thin noodles, and don't even fight. Damn it, which grandson would kick me?"
Yelu Yanxi was furious. He looked stupid, but felt very stupid in his heart.
Yelu Yanxi could tell that Gao Bing's words were obviously selfish, but when he thought about it carefully, didn't Gao Bing's words make sense?
It's a good thing that the Song army was invited, otherwise, which of the several rebel kings of the Yelu family would be a good person? He has ruined the great Liao Kingdom into its current situation. How can the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty not have dissatisfaction?
This group of ministers must be eager to replace me as the emperor. At that time, it would be better to cede ten states.
From the perspective of the Emperor of Liao, Emperor Tianzuo Yelu Yanxi's idea is undoubtedly stupid, but from the perspective of this selfish person's personal gains and losses, he is just like Shi Jingtang who ceded the sixteen states back then. He can only invite
Only the Song Army has a chance to become the emperor.
The hall was in chaos. Gao Bian covered his head and was beaten. Yang Lin hid behind the soldier and held Zhe Huanxiang's little hand, who was watching the excitement with excitement.
Xiao Bao first led a few veterans to chase Gao Bing, and the young Thirteen Eagles of Shangjing came out to protect their friends. Their friendship with Gao Bing was very deep, and they cultivated it through countless nights hanging out in the romantic places in Shangjing.
The friendship between brothers is that they are all from the same "Tao".
Moreover, Gao Jing also helped them do a big thing, which was to kill the Jurchen Tatar envoy, which directly led to the current situation.
Xiao Fengxian and others were silently calculating what benefits they could get from forming an alliance with the Song people. Yang Shaozai, who originally belonged to the Song Dynasty, gave himself dozens of carloads of gifts, and the relationship between them suddenly reversed. With the help of the original
If the Liao Dynasty really fell, and he fled to the Song Dynasty to seek refuge, he would inevitably have to keep in touch with his feelings.
Thinking of this, Xiao Fengxian quietly approached Yang Lin and apologized in a low voice. Yang Lin was very polite and exchanged a few words with him. This Khitan powerful minister was to a large extent one of the culprits of the Khitan's demise.
Yang Lin had already made up his mind that when the critical moment came, he would have to kill this guy to appease the Liao people.
The two of them had their own secrets, but their words were extremely polite, as if they had been old friends for many years.
At this time, Yelu Yanxi lifted the table and cursed: "It's against the rules! Pull him out and give him ten lashes."
The Khitan guards, who looked like wolves and tigers, came in with their swords in hand, but they didn't know who His Majesty ordered to hit, so they were stunned on the spot.
Seeing Gao Bian's embarrassment, he thought that this person must have offended His Majesty, and he was going to catch him.
Yelu Yanxi stamped her feet and pointed at Xiao Baoxian and other senior ministers, and cursed: "You idiots, catch them and beat them hard."
Seeing this scene made Yang Lin's nose sore. The king of the country's subjugation turned out to be like this.
The tall and powerful Khitan guards escorted the few remaining loyal ministers of the huge Khitan army, dragged them out and whipped them. Xiao Baoxian and others were extremely sad and began to cry, not because they were afraid of the whipping, but because of the Khitan's ignorance.
The courtroom burst into tears, which moved everyone present.
Yang Lin couldn't bear it and came out to persuade: "Your Majesty, please calm down. These are all important ministers of the Liao Dynasty. If they are whipped because of the alliance between Song and Liao, the foreign ministers are afraid that the people of the Liao will misunderstand, which will be detrimental to the diplomatic relations between Song and Liao."
Although Gao Bian had been beaten a few times and his hair was a little messy, he had regained his righteousness at this time and said, "Your Majesty, what Yang Shaozai said is true. If they must be beaten, Gao Bian is willing to take the whip for them."
.”
Yang Lin glanced at him and secretly cursed in his heart, how could this thief's acting skills improve so much after he had been in Khitan for a few months?
Yelu Yanxi knew in his heart that people like Gao Bing were not good people. But he just wanted to get close to these people because this was his last hope. Yelu Yanxi, like Zhao Ji, was fatuous enough to be an emperor. He liked to have fun but not
Governing the country has ruined the country passed down by our ancestors.
But similarly, like Zhao Ji, he is not a fool.
After carefully analyzing his situation, if he formed an alliance with the Song Dynasty and imposed very heavy conditions, such as ceding ten of the Sixteenth Province of Youyun, it would be a loss-making deal for the Khitan, but for Yelu Yanxi himself,
This is the best way.
He, the titular Khitan emperor, was about to betray his relatives and leave. The Jurchen Tatars wanted to capture him alive. The other clans were just lucky, hoping that after the Jurchens captured him, they would calm down their anger and let them become the emperor of the Khitan.
Since it was the Song envoy who jointly pleaded for mercy, Yelu Yanxi ordered Xiao Baoxian and others to be expelled from the hall. After sitting down with Yang Lin, they discussed the alliance.
The Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, Yanjing and other places were still in the hands of Yelu Chun, and they were beyond the control of Yelu Yanxi. He wished that the Song people would go forward and destroy the rebel Yelu Chun, so he took advantage of Youyun on the Nanjing Road.
Ten military states including Zhou, Shunzhou, Ruzhou, Tanzhou, Jizhou, Zhuozhou, Yingzhou, Mozhou and Xinzhou were ceded to the Song Dynasty.
These places almost covered the later areas of Beijing, northern Tianjin, and northern Hebei. It can be said that Yelu Yanxi suffered a lot of bleeding, but in fact, none of these military states were under his control.
Among the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun, the only ones that Yelu Yanxi could control were Yunzhou Datong Prefecture and Yingzhou, which were later Shanxi provinces.
Yang Lin also saw his little thoughts, but he was not worried. The Khitan emperor opened his mouth and gave these places to himself. Then when I go to fight, the Khitan people in the land of Youyan will lose the support of the Khitan country.
, I don’t know what to do to resist my own army.
What's more, the armies of Yelu Chun and Yelu Dashi have to gather a large number of troops in the north to prevent the Jurchen Tatars from moving south.
I believe that with their knowledge and strategy, they should know that the north is the focus and will not put the main force in the south.
Yang Lin agreed generously, gave Yelu Yanxi reassurance, and then said boldly: "We in the Song Dynasty send troops. We don't need half a penny of supplies from the Khitan. We only need to write a letter of credence and get rid of Sui at a permanent cost."
Just coins.”
Yelu Yanxi naturally agreed, but it was unrealistic to ask for coins at this time.
Since the Chanyuan Alliance during the Zhenzong period, the Song Dynasty has paid hundreds of years of annual coins, and finally the knot was drawn at this time.
Several people from the Song Dynasty who were present were actually choked up. It was a shame for a century, or it was Kexue. Although this was already a certainty before, they would not give it to the Song Dynasty if they did not agree, but the Khitan Emperor personally said
After I came out, it still felt different.
After Yelu Yanxi made a rough covenant, she immediately felt better. She clapped her hands and asked the Khitan dancers in Datong Mansion to come to the hall to dance. The snow-white calves and slender feet of the foreign women were naked, and they sang softly to the rhythm of the songs.
It beats up and down happily, and the silver bell on the ankle makes a crisp and sweet ringing sound, which has a unique and glamorous style.
Suddenly, the originally solemn and solemn hall became a little more rosy, and the beautiful women's waists were as slender as willow branches, giving the envoys of the Song Dynasty, including Yang Lin, who were agitated just now, an unreal feeling.
.
Yang Lin toasted to celebrate with Emperor Tian Zuo with a smile on his face, but in his heart he rolled his eyes and cursed: If you don't perish the country, whoever will perish it, you are too ambitious, you are a complete and utter idiot.
