The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

Those who "go abroad" are called recruits, while those who are responsible for receiving the other party's envoy are called companions. According to the scope of work, they are generally called recruits, sending companions, and attending companions. Companions generally have to choose recruits from the delegation to the delegation.

Officials with the same ranks serve as officials, and officials along the post road also have to invite crossing envoys to give gifts...

Just as Zhao Qiong and Wanyan Xieye's friendship deepened, he received an imperial edict from the Privy Council, ordering him to send Wanyan Xieye and his subordinates to Dingzhou on Hebei West Road, and then from Hebei

Send him back to his country. In theory, if it is a foreign envoy who should come to Beijing to meet, it may be that Wanyan Xieye's "envoy" team is too large, so it is spared this trouble and is sent back directly by the border.

Zhao Qi looked at the instructions issued by the Privy Council and found it very interesting. The diplomacy of the Song Dynasty was actually under the supervision of the Privy Council, who was in charge of military work, and was responsible for all matters of diplomatic relations, including documents, envoy dispatch and all reception matters. In addition,

Based on the principle of multi-head management, the court also set up a special agency in charge of the exchanges between the National Trust Office, which is responsible for the exchanges between Liao and Jin. Although it belongs to the Honglu Temple and the Imperial Essay Province, it is actually a relatively independent foreign affairs.

mechanism.

The main tasks of the Guoxin Institute include selecting members of the diplomatic mission and learning diplomatic etiquette, being responsible for receiving Liao and Jin envoys, and urging local governments to do a good job in reception, managing Guoxin gifts, diplomatic documents and management of Duting Inn, etc.

His diplomatic affairs were "required to implement the orders of the Privy Council". In actual work, he was directly under the command of the Privy Council and assisted him in handling specific diplomatic affairs, which was a bit like the current joint working group.

"I will be instructed to lead the envoys, and most of them will be careful and effective. They will be guarded by the way, and they will be more than Khitan and Xiazhou's envoys. They will be in contact with the public and private people, and they will be treated as if they are shown outside.

To detect the traitor…” Zhao Qi was reading the sour and difficult-to-understand decree, thinking that this might be to bring more people along the way to prevent the Jurchens from colluding with military and civilian officials of the Song Dynasty, and see who had contacted them.

The Jurchens cannot let the Jurchens see the true identities of these people. Speaking of which, they are counter-espionage staff hidden in the team receiving diplomatic missions.

"You are Zheng Haoran, the guardian sent by the Privy Council." Zhao Qiong looked up and down at the man in his thirties in front of him.

"Zheng Haoran, the eighth-rank Wuyi Lang of the Guoxin Bureau, has been appointed as the guardian envoy!" The man bowed and said.

"Well, I know," Zhao Qi nodded, "I told them when I saw Xi. Take Zheng Fangfan to familiarize myself with the situation!" This guardian envoy is equivalent to the special envoy sent by the Central Security Department, not only guarding against the diplomatic mission.

Foreigners are also responsible for supervising whether there are any acts of collusion among the officials along the way. The officials are not strong but have little power. You should be careful when you come into contact with Wanyan Xie in the future.

"Oh, please ask when will the prince set off? The above are also urging you to delay the trip, and it is not easy to delay the trip!" Zheng Haoran went out without rushing and asked again.

"Well. Today you will have a day off, prepare tomorrow, and make a trip the next day, okay?" Zhao Qi said after thinking for a while. He also knew that the court had strict regulations on the itinerary of foreign envoys and did not dare to delay it. The Xinjiang officials detained him.

Companions must follow the journey. No one can miss a day without reason. If you don’t know, you will leave a hundred sticks a day, and add one more time per day. Until the two years of migration, you will apply to the local prefectures and counties. The lie will be punished by

Impeach.

"Okay, it's all up to Uncle Wang's arrangement!" Zheng Haoran looked at the only eunuch beside the prince in the room, and said with a smile.

"Why did Zheng Fangfen say this?" Zhao Qi was stunned when he heard this. His eldest nephew Zhao Xie was only five or six years old. If his relatives had a surname, Zhao, he asked in confusion.

"The prince, the father of the minister is the nephew of Duke Zheng, and he has been living in Zheng's mansion. The sixth uncle saw that the minister was quite smart, so he asked someone to donate an official to his nephew and entered the National Trust Office!" Zheng Haoran said.

"Oh, so that's it. We're a family!" Zhao Qi suddenly said. It turned out to be a relative of his grandfather's family. He was probably a little far away at this age, but there were some people in the family, and it was not that relatives depended on him to live.

The latest news asked Jianxi to bring a stool to sit down.

"Uncle Six said that his nephew came to the northwest, so he brought some good wine and took a break to Uncle Wang!" Zheng Haoran thanked him and said halfway on the stool.

"Is that so? I'm still worried about my uncle. My husband and the old lady are still tough?" Zhao Qiong said.

"Everything is fine, I just miss the prince, I often mention you!" Zheng Haoran said respectfully.

"My sixth uncle, Bianliang, and Xiangyi are really hard, but I can't help, I'm so ashamed!" Zhao Qi said with a sad face.

"Uncle Six is ​​now in charge of the family. He only goes to the end of the year and no longer travels between the two places often!" Zheng Haoran said.

"Oh, is that right! It's busy enough to manage the business of the whole mansion. Zheng Quan is taking care of Xiangyi winery?" Zhao Qi asked.

"Zheng Quan, Mr. Zheng has retired to retire and no longer care about the winery. Now Zheng Feng is taking care of the Xiangyi side." Zheng Haoran said.

"Oh, he is seventy years old this year, it's time to take a break!" Zhao Qi nodded.

"Uncle Wang, Mr. Zheng is 66 years old, but he is not 70 years old!" Zheng Haoran corrected with a smile.

"Oh, I'm so busy!" Zhao Qi patted his forehead and said with a sneer.

"Uncle Wang is busy with all his life, so how can he remember these little things? My nephew will take it back first and come and pay his respects tomorrow!" Zheng Haoran said.

"When you see the joy, please continue to prepare a good table for Zheng Fangfen to welcome you. Since we are a family, we can come to me if you have any needs!" Zhao Qi raised his hand and said to the guest.

"Thank you, Uncle Wang, I have told you to do your best!" Zheng Haoran bowed and bowed and retreated.

"Second Master, this kid knows everything about the Duke's Mansion very well. It doesn't seem like he is talking nonsense!" Jianxi looked at Zheng Haoran out of the door and whispered.

"Well, he answered well, but you must be careful. Please investigate immediately and give it a quick return; and then tell us that our people are more scrupulous and don't talk about things here in front of them, so as not to teach others how to teach people.

With a handle!" Zhao Qi stood up and said.

"Don't worry, Second Master, I'll do it immediately!" Seeing Xi, he immediately passed the prince's orders...

With the arrival of the Beijing China Information Institute, the guards of the inn suddenly became nervous. Because the diplomatic office is the main venue for diplomatic envoys, the confidentiality is very strict. It is also very important to keep the relevant persons confidential. If you are not careful,

It will cause political or military disasters.

Therefore, in the fifth year of Huangyou, the court issued an edict that all local offices, especially diplomatic offices, are not allowed to post maps. In order to prevent military leaks, prevent the envoys from conducting appropriate inspections and ensuring that the

Everything was well aware of the movement. The soldiers they brought were replaced at the entrance of the inn. All personnel issued license plates. People without license plates are not allowed to enter. Even if the number and time of the envoys of the Jin Kingdom go out, detailed regulations are made. If the envoys go out, they will go out.

, a dedicated person must be accompanied. Strict inspections are also carried out when entering and leaving. If contraband is involved, they will be subject to censorship and confiscation...

All kinds of measures will inevitably make Wanyan Xie, who enjoys the treatment of "free people", feel inconvenient. But rules are rules. He found that even Prince Yan now had to "honestly" to abide by the new regulations, and now he will follow the same one.

The Jin envoy who came also made him feel scruples, and he would be able to leave in two days, so he would bear it for the time being.

On the tenth day of December, the team escorted the Jin Dynasty's "Entertainment" back to the country set off, because there were many envoys and entourages of the Jin Dynasty. In order to prevent unpleasant things, in addition to sending companions to Prince Yan, the five hundred guards led by the Guoxin Institute, the second

Hundreds of staff were accompanying each other. There were also welcoming and seeing off teams sent by prefectures and counties along the way, maintaining an advantage in number. If it weren't for the Jurchens under the banner, they would be like escorting prisoners, and they had already reached Wanyanxie and faced the Song Dynasty.

He was very enthusiastic and complained. Prince Yan, who led the team, seemed not very happy either...

Zhao Qi was unhappy because he had to face a humiliating history. His father, Tong Guan, Wang Fu and others were keen on the original "Sea Alliance" because they knew that they were weak and weak, and their military strength was not strong.

The power of the Liao Kingdom was unbeatable and it was difficult to take back Yanyun. Therefore, he wanted to use the Jin Kingdom's troops to destroy Liao, and use silver and silk to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun. In the process of the exchanges between the Song and Jin seas.

The country gradually realized the weakness of the Song Dynasty and the lack of military strength of the Song Dynasty, so it left a foreshadowing when formulating the contract.

Although Zhao Ji appointed Tong Guan as the Hebei Xuanfu envoy at the beginning of his attack on Liao, he still kept his hands on the revenge of Yanjing, and sent a personal eunuch in a small-dressed army to closely monitor Tong Guan's actions.

After moving, when he found out the fact that "Yanjing was lost, the prefectures and counties were destroyed again, and the people rushed", he secretly reported it to the emperor.

Zhao Ji immediately scolded Tong Guan for making mistakes with his letter: "I will not believe you anymore." Tong Guan was very panicked when he saw the emperor's letter. Since the Song army was unable to recover Yanjing, he had to seek help from the Jin Kingdom. After obtaining the emperor's consent, he sent him

From Yizhou, the flying fox went to the Jin Kingdom to pay homage to Aguda, and asked the Jin Kingdom to raise an army quickly and attack Yanjing with the Song Dynasty.

Aguda, who was defeated by the Dezhou army, may be depressed and denounced the Song Dynasty for his treason. When the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom fought bloody battles, they got away with the appointment, which led to his failure to capture Xijing and demanded that the Song Dynasty compensate for the losses.

.If the Song Dynasty did not show weakness at this moment, but showed it as strong, and would have bitten them back, they would have been defeated by the Liao Kingdom, the situation might have improved.

But the reason these people couldn't explain clearly. They just gave in, and they just gave in, and the result was that they had 200,000 stones of food and grass, plus the price of doubling the annual monies, so they asked for troops from the Jin Dynasty. According to the agreement between the Song and Jin countries, they were awarded a request for troops.

The agreement was that the Jin soldiers could not pass Songting Pass, Gubeikou, and south of Yuguan, so as not to have disputes with the Song soldiers who attacked Yanjing. Now it became a Song Dynasty begging the Jurchens to violate the agreement.

All this made Zhao Qi very depressed. He struggled to steal Aguda's camp and burned their food. His father made up for it. The Jurchens played the loss inside the dike and repaired the loss outside the dike, and further fought for the future dispute.

If you have the basics and find enough reasons, it is better to give all the money to yourself. Not only will you spend less money and do more, but you will have no sequelae!

The Jurchens were quite kind. Aguda collected the money and said that the Jin soldiers would start on December 1st, and they could reach Juyongguan on the fifth day of the lunar month. On the sixth day of the lunar month, the Jin and Jin attacked Yanjing together...

The Jin army finally came to kill. This is something that everyone knows will happen, but when it really happens, it still makes people tremble! To be precise, the Liao people were trembling with fear and the Song people were trembling with anger.

In November, Concubine Xiao De submitted a letter to the Jin Dynasty five times, saying that as long as the King of Qin was allowed to be appointed as the Emperor of Liao, the Jin Dynasty could agree to other conditions. But how could Aguda allow the Liao Dynasty, which was about to settle down and the Jin Dynasty to coexist, and ignore it at all.

The Yanjing's sign was sent to the south from the northwest. Of course, Concubine Xiao De could not sit still and wait for death. He sent heavy troops to defend Juyongguan and resisted the invasion of the Jin army.

Juyong Pass is located north of Youzhou, the deepest obstacle, and is one of the four barriers in the world. The Central Plains energy code is the northern gate of Yang Kingdom, and the Central Plains loss is the southern gate of Yin Kingdom. The mountains are interrupted. The two sides of the trench are bound, the stone roads are wrapped in the intestines. The ying belt is the trench.

The gap is a slightest way to pass through people and horses, but it is not feasible to pass through vehicles. There are eighteen paths outside, so you can pass through bird paths, so you can pass through people and horses. As an important pass on the Great Wall, it has always played an important role in protecting Beijing. Since ancient times, it has

It is a place where military strategists must fight for.

However, since Juyong Pass was the most convenient transportation among the five passes that guarded Youzhou, it became the best way to attack Beijing, and the Jurchens naturally chose this path. The Jin army was defeated outside Gubeikou first and suffered a great defeat.

The Liao army drove directly to Juyongguan, and was in danger, and the Jin army was also ready for a bloody battle. But an accident happened. Suddenly, there was a loud noise, the mountains collapsed and the ground broke, and the cliffs collapsed. It was hidden under the cliff to fight against the Liao army's attack.

The soldier was in trouble and was buried alive under the rocks.

The living Liao army was scared and didn't know if it was because he offended the mountain god or the Jurchens bribed the mountain god. They were so troubled by this, and they immediately scattered their bodies. Such an important pass was easily obtained by the Jin army. All the possible success was possible.

As expected, the Liao soldiers guarding the pass collapsed without fighting, and the Jin soldiers drove south to Youzhou. At this time, the Song army was just envious of their good luck and good character, even God helped.

Juyong Pass was lost. Wanyan Agu still had a long way to go from Yanjing City. Empress Xiao said she wanted to command the army personally. She fought to the death with the Jin soldiers. She and Yelu Dashi led the Khitan car tent to stay at the city that night, saying that they wanted to welcome the enemy in the wild camp.

, fighting against the Jin army, Prime Minister Zuo Qigong and others saw him off outside the city gate. She and Yelu Dashi and his team ran overnight and arrived at Gubeikou.

Escape! At this moment, Concubine Xiao De's determination disappeared, Xiao Gan's courage disappeared, Yelu Dashi, with an unlimited future, also disappeared, and the opinions of the entire Liao Dynasty's direct group were unprecedentedly unified. The Liao people began a great escape, and here are the Qidan

Yelu Dashi, Empress Xiao fled to Yinshan and defected to Yelu Yanxi who was hiding in a mouse cave. She had long wanted to fight alone Xiao Gan led the Xi people, and the Bohai people went east to become the emperor himself, and she could not exist at this point.

The Liao regime in Yanjing collapsed for a year.

The journey was smooth. On December 6, Aguda arrived in Yanjing as scheduled. Zuo Qigong led all the officials who stayed in Yanjing, Yu Zhongwen, Cao Yongyi, Liu Yanzong and others to surrender to the Jin army, and the Liao army did not even shoot out symbolically.

An arrow surrendered like this, and the Jurchen soldiers drove into Yanjing City without bloodshed...

I hate it. In order to take advantage of the situation, I launched an attack first. I thought I would collapse at once and snatch Yan Yun, and then I had a northern defense line. Unexpectedly, I was futile and lost my troops. The worst thing is that the two wars also made the Liao army energetic.

When the Jin army came over, it was like a standard way to go down the mountain to pick peaches.

Thinking about it, the officers and soldiers of the Song Dynasty regretted it, and their intestines were all regretful! If I had known this, it would be better to fight it again, or give the food and grass burned by my own house to the Jurchens and hire them to serve them.

Fight yourself! So many people have died now, and they have spent so much effort to buy it. But regret is useless, and fear is useless. When time comes, the Song army, who has not planned to send troops

I could only stand on the border and watch as the top of Yanjing city was replaced with the Jurchen flag...

Seeing that the Jurchens easily occupied Yanjing, Tong Guan, who was angry, remembered that he had an agreement in hand and immediately sent an envoy to Yanjing city to negotiate with Agu, but at this time the Jurchens became unhappy.

I think so, a group of mountain people who have only seen fat pigs run away and have never eaten fat pork finally caught a fat pig. Although the pig belongs to someone else according to the agreement, they don’t plan to let it go.

You have to remove both of its hooves and eat them!

"The so-called attackers were the Song Dynasty, from Zhuo, Yi and other places to Yanjing. The Jin Dynasty advanced troops from the north entrance of the crows and Yanjing. The Jin Dynasty advanced troops from the north entrance of the crows and Yanjing. At the end of the day, the soldiers and horses of the current dynasty captured Juyongguan and arrived directly

Yan, the money was sent to the outside world today, and there was no one in the army or horse in the court, one drum, one flag, one armor and one arrow, and it was unable to enter Yan, and it was retreated..." When the agreement was mentioned, the Jurchens were still angry, and they returned immediately

The book ridiculed the Song Dynasty and said that the Song Dynasty did not attack the Liao army according to the agreement, and that it was their own battle to defeat Yanjing, which could not be considered a violation of the agreement.

Although he was in a disadvantage, Da Song could not do anything to lose face, so he replied to the book and found some objective reasons to accuse the Jurchens of being betrayal. This time, a group of upstarts led by the young Wanyan Zonghan were originally idols in their hearts.

The Song Dynasty, now they have become the object of vomiting in their hearts, and they are despised. They are unwilling to treat the Song Dynasty as equal military allies, so they do not agree to return Yanjing to the Song Dynasty, but should use Zhuozhou and Yizhou.

As the division between the Song and Jin dynasties, Yanjing was taken as its own.

Aguda didn't want to betrayal, but he didn't want to return so empty-handed, so he ordered Zong Han to be the representative of the Jin Dynasty and asked him to preside over the negotiations with the Song Dynasty. This is better, Zong Han first made a righteous and righteous list of Song Dynasty.

The bad deeds of violating the alliance: Detaining the envoy of the Jin Kingdom, delaying the attack on Liao for more than half a year. It was late, but it could not even be defeated by Yanjing. I have seen a coward, but I have never seen a big-sized person like you...

Tong Guan, who had suffered from the insults of the Jurchens, suddenly remembered that the Great Marshal of the Great Jin Kingdom was still taking refuge in the Song Dynasty. Damn it, I said I can't do it, so I brought him to the eye and slapped you in the face! So there was

It was urgent to order Zhao Qi to escort Wanyan Xie!
