Chapter 333 Revisit the Old Place
In the leisurely evening, the soft breeze stroked the purple and red Huapu, sending a charming fragrance of flowers.
Chu Tianya came back from a busy day in the public government, playing on the grass with his son who was just one month old in his spare time before dinner. The old man He Bo lay on the ground and crawled with the one-month-old Chu Kejie, which made everyone laugh for a while.
From the Chu family to Tianding, He Bo seems to be more and more energetic. He has handed over all the affairs of Qingwei to the rosefinch and Xuanwu who don't care about anything. The only thing he has to do every day is to tease the world. There is an old man in the family like a treasure. Chu Tianya is very lucky to have a uncle, which can make Chu Kejie enjoy a rare "senthusiorship" from a young age.
After the confinement, Xiao Linglong began to slowly practice martial arts to recover her figure. As a mother, she is more charming and charming than before. The wife of the wife in the royal palace of Wei was harmonious and happy, which was a good story about Luoyang.
"Flying Fox, come on, I want to tell you something today." Seeing that Uncle He was having fun with the world, Chu Tianya called Xiao Linglong aside.
"What are you talking about so solemnly?" Xiao Linglong walked to him with a smile and gently flirted with Yun's temples, which was extremely charming.
Chu Tianya couldn't help but move when he looked at her like this. Suddenly, he held her in his arms and kissed her fiercely.
"What are you doing!" Xiao Linglong smiled angrily, "It's old husband and wife, you are still like this!"
"Who is old?" Chu Tianya said seriously, "I'm less than 30 years old. You are younger than me!" I found that you are becoming more and more attractive and feminine now. I can't help it!"
"You should be serious!" Xiao Linglong pushed him away with a helpless smile, "Say it, what's the matter?"
"Do you remember the origin of your title?" Chu Tianya said.
"Do you still need to ask?" Xiao Linglong said, "What the hell is going on?"
"Today, Taiyuan Ma expanded to report, saying that Wanyan Kao, the important minister of the State of Jin, has arrived in Taiyuan and is specially for peace talks." Chu Tianya said.
"Talking again?" Xiao Linglong subconsciously answered.
Chu Tianya smiled, "Why do you say 'and' again? Yes, it's the third time.
Xiao Linglong also smiled, "Wanyan is extremely popular with the State of Jin, and his status is second only to the Emperor of the State of Jin. When Jin Guonan invaded, he was the marshal of the capital, and Zong Han and Zong Wang had to listen to his command. Jin Guo sent such an important minister and personally went to Taiyuan for peace talks. It can be seen that they really don't want to fight this time.
"Hmm." Chu Tianya nodded, "In the battle between Wutongyuan and Jiyuan, the vitality of the State of Jin was greatly injured and the main force was lost, and it also damaged the two pillars of the military, Zong Han and Zong Wang, as well as a large number of think tanks and generals. Under such circumstances, even if the State of Jin is full of anger and hatred, he will definitely not dare to fight again. They need to rest and stabilize the internal situation and make a comeback.
"The State of Jin and the Song Dynasty are eternal enemies." Xiao Linglong said, "I am a girl who still firmly believes in this. I'm sure that you have the same idea as Wanyangao."
"Of course." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "The conflict between the two countries is ultimately a conflict between ** and politics. The State of Jin has always coveted the richness of the South. After several years of struggle, the two countries have formed a life-and-death hatred, and peace can not be negotiated. But at present, not only the State of Jin can no longer fight, but also the Song Dynasty can no longer fight. Wanyan must have thought of this layer, so he firmly believed that this peace talks would be successful, so he personally tried his best to achieve success.
"What about your attitude?" Xiao Linglong asked.
"My attitude, as I said just now! - Song Dynasty, it's the same that you can't fight anymore." Chu Tianya said, "After a few years of war, the family of the Song Dynasty will also be empty. Huge military spending, devastated cities and farms, displaced people, and the South, which has just experienced a rebellion. These problems have to take a lot of time, manpower and financial resources to solve these problems. Whenever a problem is not solved, it may cause the Song Dynasty to collapse from the inside. This kind of collapse is far more dangerous than the aggression of foreign enemies. Therefore, I plan to go to Taiyuan in person to have this peace talks with Wanyanjiao.
"Oh, tell me, what does it have to do with me?" Xiao Linglong said curiously.
"Of course it matters." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Do you think Jin Guo wants to have peace talks, so let's have peace talks? Although peace talks are an inevitable trend, Jin is a defeated country. If you want to negotiate, you have to show some benefits and sincerity! - Well, they have ceded the land!"
"Cut the land?"
"Yes." Chu Tianya said, "From the flying fox mouth north of Taiyuan to the whole territory of Yunzhou in the north - that is, the 'mountain behind Kyushu' of the sixteen states of Yanyun, all of which are returned to the Song Dynasty!"
"Mountain Kyushu - Confucianism, Concubine, Xin, Wu, Yun, Shuo, Huan, Ying, Dai!" Xiao Linglong took a deep breath, "I didn't expect that Jin Guo would have this day!" The former sixteen states of Yanyun were ceded to the State of Liao by Shi Jingtang. Later, the State of Jin was forcibly taken away from the State of Liao, and now, it has been recovered by you... For more than a hundred years, Tianya, does this artifact belong to its original owner?
"That's it!" Chu Tianya smiled proudly and said, "This is better than Tong Guan spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy a Yanjing empty city from the real woman, right?"
"Look at your pride!" Xiao Linglong smiled, "Did you tell me specifically to show off to me? Flying Fox Ancient Road, Princess Flying Fox. Now, it belongs to the territory of the Song Dynasty.
"It's not showing off, it's comfort." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Don't forget that you are also the princess of the flying fox awarded by the Song Dynasty. But the Flying Fox Ancient Road has always been occupied and guarded by the State of Jin. Whenever I think of this, I always feel awkward in my heart. I once thought of asking the official family to get another title for you. It's all right now. It's just right.
"You're so stupid..." Xiao Linglong scolded, but there was a warmth in her heart. This powerful man still thinks about her all the time as he did at the beginning, and regards some of her little things as a big thing.
"It's all a small matter." Chu Tianya smiled and said, "In fact, what I want to say most today is that we have been away from Taiyuan for so long. I'll go to Taiyuan to negotiate another day. Are you interested in going with me?
"Go to Taiyuan?" Xiao Linglong's eyes lit up, "I'm so interested!"
"You miss it too, don't you?" Chu Tianya smiled and then took a long breath, "I miss it too!" There are not only my ancestral graves, but also many things left over from the two battles of Taiyuan. Do you remember Qingyunbao, Qixingzhai, Huanglong Valley, and the place where I enjoyed the snow and played with you?
Xiao Linglong nodded gently, "Now, we still have Kejie. Let's take him together and revisit the old place!"
"This is a must!"
A few days later, the court of the Song Dynasty told the world that he wanted to make peace with the State of Jin. The King of Wei was ordered to go to Taiyuan to have peace talks with Ban Bo, who was extremely fierce in the State of Jin.
After the war, people were determined, and the court officially announced this news to the world, which could greatly stabilize the hearts of the people. Especially for the battle between Xixia and Xiliao, which is intended to be aimed at the west, as long as the Song Dynasty and the State of Jin reach a reconciliation, it will be a big blow to Yelu Dashi. Because this means that the Song Dynasty, which had calmed down the civil strife earlier, has now appeased the strongest enemy, the female real. There is no war in civil strife, and can have enough time, manpower and material resources to deal with Western Liaoning!
Therefore, just as Chu Tianya set out from Luoyang and went to Taiyuan, some people rejoiced and some people were anxious for internal injury. Now, every move of Chu Tianya is enough to affect the world. But in fact, for Chu Tianya, this trip to Taiyuan is a trip home, or a trip to his hometown. Because before he left, the details of the peace talks had been agreed. Compared with the current strength of Song and Jin and the current status of the King of Wei, he will not fight with anyone at the negotiating table. Other officials had already discussed with Wanyanjiao first, and then brought the draft agreement to Luoyang | It was only after Chu Tianya's approval.
What Chu Tianya needs to do is to sign the agreement on behalf of the Song Dynasty.
In this line, Chu Tianya specially called the old man of Qingyunbao and Qixingzhai to accompany him. Except for Xue Yu, who was far away, Jiao Wentong and Xiao Linglong all followed, and the general Yang Zaixing led the troops to escort.
Compared with the time when he withdrew from Taiyuan, there are fewer Baixu and Meng De around Chu Tianya now. Every time this matter is mentioned, Chu Tianya, Jiao Wentong and others sighed.
After a few days of travel, I finally arrived in Taiyuan.
When the soldiers and civilians of Taiyuan heard that Chu Tianya, the king of Wei, was coming, they prepared early to welcome him. Tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians went out of Guo 30 miles to welcome each other, singing and dancing. Chu Tianya has finally realized what the ancients called "Returning to Home". No wonder the sages used to be so good. It turned out that it felt really good, very kind and proud.
Ma Yan is the one who guards Taiyuan, who has been promoted to the governor of Hedong. Under his control, Taiyuan soldiers are strong and strong, and people's livelihood is gradually recovering. He has the intention to restore the former residence of Chu Tianya to its original state and make it a landscape in Taiyuan. Chu Tianya came back today and happened to be able to move in.
Returning to the old house, Chu Tianya is really cordial and nostalgic. When he stood under the osmanthus tree in the house and held Xiao Linglong's hand, the two looked at each other and smiled, and their endless feelings were all in a smile.
Two days after Xiema, Chu Tianya had formal talks with Wanyan, the envoy of the State of Jin. In fact, the content of the meeting is very simple and time-consuming, because what should have been discussed has already been agreed. In short, the Song and Jin countries have been fighting forever since then. The State of Jin ceded the mountains and Kyushu to the Song Dynasty, and the two countries vowed never to invade each other. The eastern part of Hedong is the Etai behavior boundary, and the western foothills belong to the Song Dynasty; the Hebei area is bounded by three towns, and there are still seven of the 16 prefectures in Yanyun that belong to the rule of the State of Jin.
Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, the sixteen states of Yanyun have all belonged to Beihu, which made the border defense of the Song Dynasty tight. Anyone who has some military knowledge knows that "there is no Hebei without thistle, and no national defense without Hebei." Now, the Youyan area still belongs to the State of Jin, and their cavalry can still directly threaten the hinterland of Hebei. The intention of the State of Jin is obvious. They do not intend to sincerely bend their knees to the Song Dynasty from now on. The geographical location is more important, and the seven states in front of the mountain, which are more prosperous and rich, are still tightly held in their hands.
Chu Tianya knows in his heart that not everything can be solved at the negotiating table. Otherwise, where will many wars come from? Jin Guo sent it to Kyushu before and after, and he accepted it calmly. In any case, the geographical location of Kyushu behind the mountain is equally important. After recovering them, Taiyuan's throat has more buffer and security. The Song Dynasty can build the former Western Court of the State of Jin and the area around Yunzhou into a new military base, which can be attacked, retreated and defended, which is much more active than defending a lonely city in Taiyuan at the beginning. If the State of Jin dares to send troops from the Youyan area to invade the south, it must also consider the threat of the Song Dynasty in Yunzhou!
The big name was signed and the gold seal was stamped, and the talks between the two countries ended. Wanyangao returned immediately without stopping. Chu Tianya's military and horse transfer order was also issued at the same time, and Ma Yu immediately led the army to take over Yunzhou. Since then, Kyushu has been included in the territory of the Song Dynasty.
Then, Chu Tianya took his wife, children and old friends and relatives to start his journey back to his hometown.
First of all, I went to Qingyunbao.
