I became the son of Renzong

"It's hard to say. Didn't the report some time ago say that there was an accidental conflict with a maritime merchant and finally wiped out that fleet?"
In fact, I was a pirate once, robbed people, and reported it with nice rhetoric.The imperial court basically acquiesced in this kind of thing, and it was considered benevolence and righteousness without agitation.
"Maritime merchants and ships disappear every year, and it is impossible for Beiliao to determine that the fourth prince and the others did it."
"Could it be the northwest? Guochao now borders on the Shangjing Road in Beiliao in the northwest. The border is very long, and disputes and conflicts are inevitable."
"Check the Northwest reports these days to see if there is any conflict."
In the northwest area, there have been constant conflicts with the Northern Liao Dynasty and the Uighurs on the border, but they were all small-scale conflicts. The Northwest Garrison even killed the capital and was too lazy to report to the court.
"There's no need to check. Ever since the imperial court decided on all the plans in Workshop City, the Privy Council has ordered that all troops stationed in the Northwest shall not conflict with foreign countries for no reason."
Zhang Dun felt that there was really no need for the cabinet to discuss matters so solemnly, wasn't it just an envoy?what will happen?what can i doThe most serious thing is nothing more than starting a war.
In Zhang Dun's view, no matter whether the court is fully prepared, there is no possibility of defeat in the Liao war.
As for being like this because of one person?
"In that case, let's report to the officials."
Wang Anshi also knew that he was making a big deal out of a molehill.But he thought it was right to be cautious, even if it was a false alarm, it was much better than being caught off guard.
The new cabinet took office, and has not had any major conflicts with foreign countries. This is the first time, the first time for the new cabinet.
He also knew that with Guochao's current strength, he was not afraid of Beiliao, but there was a difference between active and passive.Public opinion is not judged by results, even if it is a simple matter, the court and the market can infinitely magnify it, and link it with the cabinet's talents.
"Since there is no reason, let's wait for the envoys to arrive. Just do what you want, it's not a big deal. If it's serious, it's just a fight. The army of the country and the dynasty hasn't fought for a few years..."
How could the officials make such an argument?
"Officials and veterans also thought nothing was wrong, but the court is not ready yet. If something happens suddenly, the court will inevitably be caught off guard."
Is it possible that Wang Anshi is still a person who pursues perfection?It shouldn't be, as far as the changes he led, there is no sign of pursuing perfection at all.
"Prince Wang, it's impossible to do everything perfectly. Emergency response is the best way to test."
"Since the new cabinet, the first foreign war in the country was when the four princes went to sea and ended in defeat. The old minister is worried that if a war breaks out with the Northern Liao Dynasty, the characteristics of the Northern Liao cavalry will inevitably lead the court to be passive in the early stage of the war."
"The confidence cultivated by Guochaojing in the past few years is actually not firm. Veteran ministers are worried that a defeat at sea and another disadvantage in a land battle will lead to the collapse of the confidence built up over the years."
"Although the veteran does not join the army, he also knows that the army fights. The soldier's belief in victory is the root of morale. The official, the veteran is worried about the consequences!"
To put it bluntly, Wang Anshi did not want people to think that he was inferior to Fu Bi, nor did he want people to think that this cabinet was inferior to the previous one.This temper is really aggressive.
Of course, what Wang Anshi was thinking about was not completely impossible.However, Zhao Xi thinks the probability of it happening is very low.Strictly speaking, the new army was formed on the basis of its own opinions, and no one knew better than him how the soldiers were doing.
Although the soldiers may have changed several batches, the inheritance that Zhao Xi emphasized from the old guard battalion has been branded in the hearts of the soldiers of the old guard battalion.And now the middle and upper level generals are almost all the soldiers of the old guard battalion.
"The Wang Xiang's concerns are not completely unreasonable, and I deeply believe that they are. However, since the court can't find the root cause, why not wait until the envoy arrives and clarify the purpose before making a fuss?"
"I believe that with the scale of the country's current orbital network, the speed of mobilizing troops should be sufficient to deal with accidents."
Zhao Xi didn't need to argue if he didn't agree with Wang Anshi's point of view.After all, this is a prime minister who is concerned about the country and the people, although there are some flaws.Zhao Xi still consoled her.
The accompanying envoy made indirect remarks along the way, but he couldn't find out the purpose of the envoy from Beiliao...
"Xiao Yi, the envoy of the Liao Kingdom, greeted His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty..."
What follows is a bunch of nonsense, and the process of receiving envoys is originally composed of nonsense.Zhao Xi didn't think about changing anything, it was like this.
We have already arrived at the Hall of Qinzheng, and what the Liao envoy wants to do, there should be a result.
"Qi Zou His Majesty Song, the foreign envoy's trip is entrusted by His Majesty the Emperor of Daliao. I would like to ask Song State: What is the meaning of your Song State merchants' continuous bewitching of Dingkou's southward migration on the Nanjing Road?"
I don't know if it's because the entire Northern Liao Dynasty still didn't understand the situation clearly, or because of the envoy's own reasons, until now, the way of speaking is still in this tone.
"Prince Wang, tell him."
"Back to the official's house, according to the Hedong Armistice Agreement, Beiliao shall not prevent the Han people from moving south."
Wang Anshi was relieved at this time, and disdain and toughness became the main arguments.
"Your Majesty Song, the foreign envoys heard that the Song Kingdom does not allow the trading of Dingkou, and no slave contracts are allowed, but this is the case? Why are the people of the Nanjing Road of the Great Liao Dynasty being traded as slaves?"
"Oh, Lu Qing, you are in charge of Shiyi, please tell the envoy."
Zhao Xi really wanted to say: none of your business.However, the effect should be about the same.
"Returning to the official family, the national government's decree on slave trading or contracts is aimed at the people of the Great Song Dynasty. After foreign countries enter our dynasty, there must be a three-year limit before they can enjoy the treatment of the people of the Great Song Dynasty."
In the following argument, Zhao Xi didn't hear a word in his ears.What else do you think...
Chapter 858
What Zhao Xi wants to know most is: How many people from the Nanjing Road in the Northern Liao Dynasty entered the Central Plains?
This number can indirectly reflect the heart of the Northern Liao Han people.
Since Taizong's collapse of Gaoliang River, Guochao and Beiliao have fought many battles, or conflicts, on the land of the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun.
The defeat again and again has chilled the hearts of the Han people in the entire Yanyun Sixteen States.
The first time because of returning home, the people looked forward to Wang Shi going north, the second time they were lucky, the third time and the fourth time, every time they ended in defeat, no one had hope for Wang Shi anymore.
If the local people in Yanyun consciously move south this time, that is to say, the Han people in the land of Yanyun still recognize their ancestors to the Central Plains Dynasty, and there will be a tendency to return to the clan.
In this way, once the Kingdom goes to war with Beiliao, it will be able to gain the support of the people in Yanyun and other places, which is self-evident for the benefits of the war.
"Isn't the State of Song afraid of provoking wars? I, Daliao, have millions of elite riders, always ready to fight..."
"Emissary Xiao, resting your arms and waiting for the morning means that the weapons are your pillows, waiting for dawn. You don't need them during the day, and you don't need them all the time. As for whether my Great Song Dynasty is worried about wars, the Battle of Hedong is a clear proof!"
How come Zhang Dun is also catchy, his mouth is tricky, choking people can choke half to death.
"Emissary Xiao, what Elder Zhang Ge meant was that there was an agreement after the truce of the Battle of Hedong, and that Emissary Xiao should not bear the risk of the two countries tearing up the contract. It's just a matter of three or five grassroots people, and there is no war or no war. "
Is Su Zhe making up the knife or helping Zhang Dun ease up?Anyway, Zhao Xi didn't sound like he was easing up.
Opening one's mouth alone, still facing the so-called learned and eloquent cabinet ministers, one can imagine how uncomfortable the Liao envoy was in this Qinzheng Palace.This is not a battlefield, he can't slash and kill on horseback with a sword, he can only be run on by a group of people who are used to debating.
His face turned red and his neck was thick.
It's almost done, there is no need to target a Liao envoy like this.Originally, I was a little worried that a war was going to start, but now I knew it had nothing to do with the war and I became more energetic.Even Wang Anshi looked like he was watching the fun.
"Prince Wang, the emperor of the Liao Kingdom will probably not say anything about the matter of Dingkou. It is better for the cabinet to find out what kind of difficulties the Liao Kingdom is facing."
"Since it is a country of brothers, there are some things that should be helped. Let the cabinet deal with it in detail. That's it..."
