Chapter 26 Who is the subject of Western Xia
Yang Jian was also shocked when he heard Qin Minxue's words, but Yang Jian was different from others. As a eunuch who could control the government with Tong Guan in the history of the Northern Song Dynasty, Yang Jian must have his excellence. It can be said that this is the sadness of the Northern Song Dynasty, and in real history, the Ximen official relied on The backer is also Yang Jian, who has not completely shown his real face today,
If ordinary people are afraid to listen to this, they will immediately think about how to tell Song Yingzong, at least they will show a trace of surprise, and Yang Jian's doubts are just a slight frown, and then said lightly, "What Luoyang Xi Yinghui, don't they know that this dynasty is the most taboo to form a party for personal gain? I think, most of them are Tao. According to hearsay, I think, even if you know this, it's better to say less. Now you are too busy to take care of what others do.
Qin Minxue nodded hurriedly and said a lot of good words to Yang Jian. Then he hurried out of the palace and went to the palace. Along the way, Qin Minxue's psychology was chaotic. Originally, he did not regret liking Lin Xiuxiu. Now Lin Xiuxiu has also been redeemed, and he returned with a beautiful woman, but he did not expect to affect his career. Originally, he thought about entrusting his teacher Wang Kui to come forward, so he went to Wang Kui's house to pay a visit to Wang Kui, just in time for Wang Kui's son-in-law Li Gefei,
This Wang Qi is a rare talent in the history of the Northern Song Dynasty. However, when Emperor Yingzong was in office, he suspected that Wang Hui was unfaithful to him, so he did not take heavy responsibility. After Zhao Yu, Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty ascended the throne, he loved his literary talent very much. After his accession to the throne, he was immediately promoted to a bachelor's decree and drafted a major code for the court. As an auxiliary, some people used the "three edicts (taking the edicts, "The prime minister" called him, saying that he had always obeyed the will and saved himself wisely,
Qin Minxue is not at peace with Wang. Others don't know. Li Gefei knows a little about it. In addition, Wang Kui himself is a wise person to protect himself, so Qin Minxue's desire to leave Wang Kui's relationship has hit a soft nail. After thinking about it, most of the officials in the court are to protect themselves. Moreover, Qin Minxue can't tell others, because I robbed the woman that the emperor liked, so the emperor didn't want to see me,
After coming out of the imperial city, Qin Minxue was frozen for a few hours to understand that instead of being like this, it is better to ask the emperor to transfer himself out of the capital. At least the emperor is far away, and he can still be free in the place.
Turning around the sky, Zhao Yu's early morning, he thought that there could be a war report from the front line of the reinforcements next to the king, but there was still not. Zhao Yu had to suppress the memorials of Zhen Rong and go back to discuss it again. The Privy Council reported that Xiao Ying, the ambassador of Liao, came to the Song Dynasty and asked to see Song Shenzong. After the Shenzong sent a decree to disperse the dynasty, he summon Xiao Ying in the hanging arch hall.
Today, Zhao Yu didn't want to waste more time. He hadn't thought about Sima Guang's request for a transfer. After all, in his opinion, Sima Guang also advocated reform. Even if there was no practical plan, there should always be no question to assist Wang Anshi. Shenzong was about to announce his withdrawal from the court, and Dengzhou Zhizhou Xu Jun made a memorial and impeachment. The judgment of the Criminal Court and Dali Temple was unfair,
This incident was caused by a murder case. After the death of A Yun's mother, a woman in Dengzhou, the funeral time was not over, so she married the local farmer Wei Ada. However, A Yun thought that Wei Ada was not good-looking and ugly, and was ready to kill Wei Ada with a knife at night. Wei Ada was injured in more than ten places and a finger was cut off, but Wei Ada did not die. After A Yun committed the crime, he turned himself in to the judicial organs. After the case was reported to the Criminal Court and Dali Temple, the Criminal Court and Dali Temple believed that the case should be sentenced in accordance with the order of marriage in violation of the law, and A Yun's death penalty should be exempted. However, Xu Zun, Zhizhou, in Dengzhou, believed that the case should be tried in accordance with the relevant legal provisions of the state. The two sides argued. Therefore, the case was transferred to the Ministry of Criminal Justice. The Ministry of Criminal Justice also agreed with the opinions of Dali Temple and the Criminal Court, but Xu Zun thought that it was unreasonable to use the edict to sentence it, so he simply impeached the Dali Temple and the Criminal Court together.
Zhao Yu listened to Xu Zun's memorial while looking at the officials in the court. The border gate was still at war. These officials could not even hear the trial of each case. He pressed his anger and his eyes fell on Sima Guang. Seeing Sima Guang's eyes slightly closed, it seemed that the controversy in the court was with him. It doesn't matter at all. Looking at Wang Anshi again, he bowed his head and thought as if he was thinking about something.
The relationship between Sima Guang and Wang Anshi was originally good, or there was not enough communication at ordinary times. Zhao Yu thought so, so he sent a decree to ask Sima Guang and Wang Anshi to hear the case together, so that the two of you should do one thing. There should be a communication. Anyway, Zhao Yu wants a result, at least two can be People can have more contact with each other through this case and learn more about each other,
Then Zhao Yu issued another decree to let Yun extract resume publication. Shen Kuo and Sima Guang were in charge of this matter. Zhao Yu was quite satisfied with his decision. The emperor sometimes made Zhao Yu feel as if he was coaxing a group of old men, and there were such stubborn people in the court. He talked about it every day, but he couldn't do much. Even Zhao Yu felt that Wang Anshi's ideas were now like a leg filled with lead, stepping on a pile of cotton, and the steps under his feet could not be implemented.
After retreating from the court, Han Qi and Zeng Gongliang accompanied the emperor in the hanging arch hall. Xiao Ying was brought into the palace by the bodyguards. It was not the first time that Xiao Ying, the imperial city of the Song Dynasty, came. Every time she came, she would change an emperor, from Song Renzong to Song Yingzong, and then to the new emperor Zhao Yu in front of her.
Xiao Ying explained his intention to Zhao Yu. On this trip to the Song Dynasty, he came to visit the new emperor and congratulate the new emperor on his accession to the throne. May the two countries of Song and Liao always form an alliance, and the vicissitudes of the world will be peaceful. After saying this, he secretly looked at Zhao Yu. The emperor and ministers in this hall are old and young. The two prime ministers are sixty or seventy years old, and this little The emperor was only in his early twenties, but the little emperor in his early twenties, after listening to what he had just said, smiled and said a word of appreciation, and there was no other expression,
Looking at his calm appearance, don't you know that I am powerful in Dalian? Xiao Ying thinks so, but she dares not despise Zhao Yu. This emperor is much better than his father Song Yingzong. Although he is young, Zhao Yu's eyebrows are not as hesitant as Song Yingzong and Zhao Shu. On the contrary, he is a little more confident than Zhao Shu.
Anyway, Song and Liao have an alliance of Tanyuan. Moreover, the little emperor has just ascended the throne and will not be disrespectful to Liao. Xiao Ying then said that another purpose of this trip to the Song Dynasty is to come here for the matter of Western Xia. It is wrong for Western Xia to disturb the Song Dynasty, but for the sake of Western Xia being a vassal of Liao, Liao is willing to mediate Song Xia. After saying the war between them, Xiao Ying looked at Zhao Yu with a friendly smile,
Zhao Yu looked at the two prime ministers: "Prime Minister Han, Prime Minister Zeng, what do you two think of this matter?"
The two prime ministers have the same caliber: "Since the State of Liao comes forward, our Song Dynasty should have the demeanor of a great country."
Zhao Yu smiled and said, "Ambassador Xiao, I can't decide this."
As soon as he said this, everyone in the hall was stunned. How could the emperor of the Song Dynasty say that he could not make the decision? Zhao Yu explained: "This time, it was next to the king of Zhennan of the Song Dynasty. Presumably Ambassador Xiao also knew the person next to the king. I once promised the king of Zhennan that this time was not only to resist the attack of Xixia. It is also necessary to let him make a decision according to the actual situation of wartime. Everyone knows that the orders of foreign troops will not be accepted. Moreover, the dispatch of troops in our dynasty is sponsored by the bond issued by the king of Zhennan. If you come from Liao to persuade the withdrawal of troops, then our dynasty will withdraw troops. Who is the military expenses for the war? Does the Liaoning Congress give it?
After Zhao Yu's words, Han Qi and Zeng Gongliang, who were sitting, grinned. Why did the emperor smell like copper next to the king? When he opened his mouth and shut up, it was the military expenses and silver. Isn't it allowed the State of Liao to see Bian? But looking at Zhao Yu's righteousness, the two prime ministers felt that Zhao Yu was really suffering. The poison next to the king is not shallow,
I can't see that such a weak little emperor has a lot of truths of his own. This is to talk about the conditions with Liao. Xiao Ying smiled and said, "The king of Zhennan is really a great talent. He can do his best for the Song monarch, which can be said to be the blessing of the Song Dynasty. However, the great Song Dynasty will not be for a thousand pieces of money, even this Don't give me any face.
Zhao Yu thought to himself, how much face is worth, and his face was not satisfied with the 32 warehouses he built in the palace. He looked at the two prime ministers bowed their heads and scolded psychologically. The two old guys, none of them was useful at the critical time. At this time, he really wanted the king to be by his side. He didn't want the king to withdraw his troops, but After withdrawing troops like this, Wang's temper broke down and left again, and there was nothing he could do,
After all, Zhao Yu is not an ordinary person. Although he is a little more naive than the king, he is also the eldest son of Songzong after all. As a successor of the royal family, he still said righteously: "During the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Song Dynasty, Xixia and our Song Dynasty made a 'Qing calendar peace'. The peace proposal stipulates that Yuan Hao cancels the emperor's name and accepts the Song Dynasty. Entified; opening up the border trade between the two sides, etc. According to the Qingli peace, Xixia is the subject of the Song Dynasty. As the subject of the country, it naturally wants to fight. How can it be the turn of Daliao to say that Xixia is the subject of the Great Liao?
Xiao Ying secretly admired himself after hearing this. Although the emperor was young, he was very independent, but Xiao Ying would not give in like this. He nodded and said, "What the Song Emperor said was right, but this Qingli peace agreement was signed in the fourth year of Guibang and Xixia in the Qingli. However, as early as the tenth year of Tiansheng, Liao Xingzong made the daughter of the clan princess Xingping. Married to Yuan Hao. In the second year of the Qing calendar, Li Yuanhao provoked the defeat of the Liao Dynasty and asked for peace with the Great Liao Dynasty. He was willing to be the State of Liao Dynasty. Therefore, in my view of the State of Liao Province, the Western Xia Dynasty is just the State of Liao from the beginning to the end. Since your Song Dynasty said that the Western Xia was submissive to you, why did you give 130,000 pieces of silk, 50,000 taels of silver and 20,000 catties every year? Tea, the Northern Song Dynasty paid the New Year's coins to become the 'jun', which is a little untrue.
Zhao Yu looked at the two prime ministers. These two didn't seem to have any intention of answering for Zhao Yu at all. They bowed their heads one by one. Zhao Yu was so angry that if it hadn't been for the presence of foreigners, they would have immediately quitting them and let them go home and close their eyes for retirement.
Although he thought so in his heart, Zhao Yu still didn't change his face. He sneered and said, "The year coin is a reward for my country. As Song Dynasty, of course, I don't care about this, but if you take money and bully the Lord, you should teach me some lessons."
There must be no result if we continue to talk like this. Seeing that the dialogue between Zhao Yu and Xiao Ying is deadlocked,
