Falling Blossoms and Storms Ancient Poetry[Transmigration Book]

[faint tricks come out repeatedly]

Originally, Wanyan Chuo could just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, laughing at watching Yan Hongxu die, but after thinking about it, Wanyan Hongxu and Shuhu Gao Qi died, and the people of the Kingdom of Jin will be implicated, and Wanyanxu will take over when the time comes It's another mess, it's better to get rid of Wanyan Hongxu and Shuhu Gaoqi as soon as possible, and settle inside first.

Under Wanyan Chuo's instruction, the news was gradually released. Now, everyone in the world knows that the son of King Rong has received the decree, and will soon lead the loyal and filial army to the south to put down Wanyan Hongxu and Shuhu Gaoqi. thief.

But at this time in Nanjing, everyone is in danger, Wanyan Hongxu is no exception, he urgently summoned Shuhu Gaoqi overnight, and the monarch and his ministers talked in detail all night to discuss countermeasures.

Shuhu Gaoqi was also afraid of being liquidated by Prince Rong's son afterwards, and tried his best to encourage Wanyan Hongxu to attack the Southern Song Dynasty. He said with reason and evidence: "The soldiers who moved the capital to Nanjing with His Majesty have insufficient soldiers to rule the north, and more than enough soldiers to rule the south. The south of the Yangtze River is rich and vast, with rich products. , the poor, desolate and cold land in Mobei is not enough to be compared with Jiangnan, if His Majesty can lead an army to capture Jiangnan, and use this as a stronghold, and slowly map it, he will certainly be able to accomplish something."

Wanyan Hongxu was probably in a hurry to go to the doctor at this time, and he actually felt that Shuhu Gao Qi's proposal was very reasonable. As the saying goes, if you lose your horse, you don't know it's not a blessing.

If Wanyan Chuo knew Wanyan Hongxu's true thoughts, he would be stunned, a bunch of self-righteous idiots!Do you really think Song Guo is a bone to chew?The Song Kingdom is located in a rich and prosperous country, and the country is prosperous and strong. It can be said that a centipede is dead but not stiff. Wanyan Hongxu's idea of ​​attacking the Song Kingdom is simply to send him to the door for abuse.

Wan Yanchuo's judgment can be traced back to the time when Emperor Ningzong of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuo, insisted on going his own way and launched the Kaixi Northern Expedition under the banner of restoring the former territory.The Northern Expedition of the State of Song with all the soldiers of the whole country, the momentum was really good at the beginning, with successive victories, but what about the final result?At that time, the lord of the Kingdom of Jin, Jin Zhangzong Wan Yanjing personally conquered, and returned with a big victory. The Song Dynasty was forced to revise the peace treaty with the Jin Kingdom, and the indemnity was 300 million taels of silver. The old coins and silver silk also increased. The country's move can be described as stealing chickens without losing money, losing his wife and losing his army.In the same way, the Kingdom of Jin seemed to have returned from victory, but was unable to take advantage of the victory to pursue it. The same was true for the Kingdom of Song. The two countries, one south and the other north, maintained a balance of terror and coexisted peacefully.

Song Guo was not reconciled, and Jin Guo was not convinced either.

Counting the past in detail, the three Northern Expeditions before and after the Song Dynasty all ended in failure. It is conceivable that there was a wave of evil fire in the Song Dynasty. 30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi, Song Guo hoped for the stars and the moon, it was hard When the Jin Kingdom was unlucky, now the feng shui took turns, the Mongolian army came with an unstoppable momentum, seeing that the Jin Kingdom was about to be destroyed, the Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers were of course having nothing to do.

In fact, as early as before, before the Mongolian army officially sent troops to attack Zhongdu, Wo Kuotai Khan sent envoys to bypass the border of Jin State, cross the Huai River and enter Song State, and sent documents and maps to Song State. Wanting to tie up with Song State, send troops together to attack Jin State back and forth.

The Kingdom of Song and Mongolia are separated by the Kingdom of Jin. The borders of the two countries do not border each other. It seems that there is no stake in it. The soldiers and civilians of the Song Kingdom do not know much about Mongolia. They only heard that the Mongols fought fiercely. For several years, He has fought against the Kingdom of Jin many times, and the Kingdom of Jin has repeatedly lost to the Mongols. Fortunately, the Kingdom of Jin has recently produced a son of King Rong, who is very good at leading troops and fighting. He suffered several defeats in a row at the hands of King Rong's son of the Kingdom of Jin, without gaining any benefits.

Since Zhongdu had not yet fallen at that time, the State of Song had heard about the strong fighting power of the Mongols, but they didn’t know much about it. , Song Guomingzhe protected himself, wisely declared neutrality, and expelled these Mongolian envoys from the country.The King of the Song Dynasty even did not forget to warn the local officials that if any Mongolian envoys come again in the future, they will be expelled and they will not be allowed to enter the country at all.

At the same time, the king of the Song Dynasty also sent Zheng Miyang, the new champion of this year, who had just assumed office, to the Kingdom of Jin to inquire about the situation.

Before Zheng Xianyang set foot on the border of the Kingdom of Jin, he heard that Wanyan Hongxu, the lord of the Kingdom of Jin who hastily succeeded to the throne, fled the Central Capital in embarrassment with all the civil and military officials. Not long after, news came that the former crown prince Wanyanxu, whose whereabouts were unknown, and whose life or death was uncertain, suddenly appeared again, and with the support of a group of veterans and important officials and hundreds of thousands of people in Zhongdu, he inherited the great rule.

Immediately after Wanyanxu succeeded to the throne, he began some vigorous reforms. First of all, he abolished the slave system inherited from generation to generation in the Jin Dynasty. All the slaves in the Three Palaces raised by his grandfather, Jin Zhangzong Wanyanjing, were released, and all of them were released, thus freeing a large number of laborers to engage in agricultural production and restore national strength.In addition, Wan Yanxu disregarded the objections of the ministers in the court and abolished the hereditary system of Meng'anmouke adopted by the Jin Kingdom since its founding, and changed all the selection of officials to be appointed after passing the examination. It is determined by the results, thus strengthening the centralization.

This series of vigorous and vigorous reforms allowed Wanyan Xu to quickly secure his position as the lord of the country, and he quickly gathered the hearts of the army and the people. In the current Kingdom of Jin, the people are full of high spirits. distressed situation.

Seeing this, Zheng Miyang did not continue to go to Zhongdu according to the original plan, but turned around and returned to the Song Kingdom, and wrote to the King of the Song Kingdom, suggesting that in the name of "war isolation", he refused to pay the Jin Kingdom every year. currency.

Zheng Miyang's reasons are very reasonable: "There are no two suns in the sky, and there are no two masters in the country. Now the Kingdom of Jin is divided into two, and each has a ruler in the north and south. Both of them say that they represent the orthodoxy of the Kingdom of Jin, but they even Who is the righteous ruler of a country, and who is the rebellious and unscrupulous officials and thieves, each sticks to their own opinions, and they can't tell each other clearly. So, who should the Song Dynasty pay the tribute to? It is the ruler of the Jin Kingdom in the central capital , or the King of the Kingdom of Jin who moved the capital to Nanjing? This old coin, 30 taels of silver and 30 bolts of silk cloth a year, is not a small amount. If it is given to Nanjing, the Central Capital will send envoys to question it , so what? Song Guo can't suffer from a dumb loss in vain, and pay another tribute to the old coin, right?"

The implication is to let the Kingdom of Jin settle the internal affairs first, and then talk about foreign affairs. Who is the legitimate king of the country and who is the rebellious minister and thief? If you don't make it clear first, the Song Dynasty doesn't know which Jin country to deal with.

The leader of the Song Kingdom thought it was a good idea and agreed to Zheng Mianyang's proposal.

In this way, Song Guo began to refuse to pay Wanyan Hongxu's small court in Nanjing New Year's Coins, and sent the eloquent Zheng Miyang to Nanjing on behalf of Song Guo to negotiate with Wanyan Hongxu.

Facing Wanyan Hongxu, Zheng Xianyang still spoke exactly the same words. Hearing Zheng Xianyang's irrational refutation, Wanyan Hongxu was directly annoyed that one Buddha came out of his body, and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. Right now, his little court in Nanjing is about to go crazy. Weary and weak, the finances have already begun to make ends meet, eagerly waiting for the New Year's Coins from the Song Kingdom to come to the emergency, but the Song Kingdom directly came to turn their faces and deny him, Wanyan Hongxu was completely dumbfounded.

In good conscience, 30 taels of silver per year is not a small sum, let alone 30 bolts of cloth. For Wanyan Hongxu, who lives in a corner of the country, cannot make ends meet, and has to spend a lot of effort to support the army every day. , Song Guo’s old coin can solve his urgent needs, but Song Guo refused to pay, and directly cut off this year’s old coin, but it is obvious that he is digging flesh from Wanyan Hongxu, how can you make Wanyan Hongxu not feel sad?

At this time, Wanyan Hongxu hadn't realized that the reason why Song Guo dared to challenge him so blatantly was because there were real masters behind him who were helping to make suggestions.

Song Guoming did not say anything, secretly, he had already secretly contacted the Lord of the Jin Kingdom who was far away in the central capital through the Xinke Jinshi, that is, Zheng Miyang, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice who just took office. The two parties successfully reached an agreement and established a new Jin Song Dynasty. A treaty of peace between the two nations.

Among them, Wanyan Chuo, the son of King Rong of the Kingdom of Jin, played a crucial role.

Not to mention anything else, Zheng Xianyang and Wanyanxu are old acquaintances, they have a good personal relationship with each other, they just hit it off immediately, and smoothly finalized the follow-up arrangements and plans. a sum.

As for why Zheng Mianyang followed Wan Yanchuo's suggestion, it was the words Wan Yanchuo once said when they met briefly before: "The country will perish, or the world will perish, please think carefully about it!"

These words, now heard, are still deafening.

At the same time when Zheng Xianyang was sent to Nanjing by order, Wanyan Chuo was not idle, and made troubles, fueled the flames, and even took the initiative to let the wind out, causing Wanyan Hongxu a lot of trouble.

Wanyan Hongxu was short of money and the pressure was getting heavier and heavier. He sent envoys to the Song Kingdom several times to urge the old coins. They are all acting like they used to show off their might, aloof, even above the court of Song State, and blame Song State for the way of using the state to make the current king, and they don't look in the mirror themselves to see what is happening now. What is the state of Jin like today, and what qualifications do these people have to go to the state of Song to drink five and six?

These people, whose time is approaching, still don't know it, it's really sad and deplorable.
