Northern Song Dynasty: Counterattack and became emperor after the Jingkang Revolution

Above the Great Song Dynasty Hall, sunlight shines mottledly on the magnificent jade steps through the exquisite window lattice. Wanyan Zongyi, the envoy from the Kingdom of Jin, dressed in gorgeous court clothes and an exquisite crown, stood quietly under His Highness. His eyes fell on the graceful Princess Zhao Yingluo in the hall. .

Zhao Yingluo seemed to be in a particularly good mood today, with a faint smile on her lips and a hint of wisdom and calmness in her eyes. She was wearing a gorgeous dress embroidered with flowing cloud patterns and a phoenix crown on her head. She looked noble yet friendly. Wanyan Zongyi knew that this princess was not only the supervisor of the Song Dynasty, but also a far-sighted politician.

Wanyan Zongyi took a deep breath, stepped forward, and saluted respectfully: "Your Highness the Princess, I am here this time. In addition to sending greetings to Your Highness, I also have something to ask for."

Zhao Yingluo nodded slightly and motioned for him to continue. Wanyan Zongyi continued: "Your Royal Highness, Dajin and Song Dynasty have been trading with each other for a long time, and the people of the two countries have benefited a lot from it. I come here this time, hoping to continue to expand the scale of the mutual trade, so that merchants from the two countries can trade more freely."

Zhao Yingluo raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this. Of course she understood Wanyan Zongyi's intention. Mutual trading does have many benefits for both countries, but it cannot expand without limit. She pondered for a moment and then slowly said: "Envoy Wanyan, expanding the scale of mutual trade is certainly beneficial to the people of the two countries, but the actual situation and balance of interests of the two countries also need to be taken into consideration."

Wanyan Zongyi nodded to express his understanding, and continued: "What Her Royal Highness the Princess said is absolutely true. In addition, I also hope to exchange some seeds from the Song Dynasty."

Zhao Yingluo was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Oh? I wonder what kind of seeds Envoy Wanyan wants to exchange for?"

Wanyan Zongyi replied: "Your Highness Princess Qi, on the way to the Song Dynasty, I found that the winter wheat around Kaifeng is growing well. In comparison, the winter wheat in our country looks a little yellow. Therefore, I hope to grow from the Song Dynasty. Introduce some high-quality wheat seeds and go back to plant them."

Zhao Yingluo nodded gently, she understood Wanyan Zongyi's concerns. Agricultural exchanges between the two countries are of great significance to improving their respective production levels. After thinking for a moment, she said: "What envoy Wanyan said is reasonable. The Song Dynasty is willing to share agricultural technology and experience with Dai Jin to jointly promote the development of agriculture in both countries."

Wanyan Zongyi was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your generous help! I will report this matter to Your Majesty to express the friendship of the Song Dynasty."

Zhao Yingluo smiled slightly. She knew that this mutual market and seed exchange was not only a commercial activity, but also an important manifestation of the friendly relations between the two countries. She secretly sighed in her heart that although there were often disputes and contests in the Great Song Dynasty, as long as they were sincere and far-sighted, they could always find a path for common development.

As Wanyan Zongyi left, Zhao Yingluo turned and looked out the window at the blue sky, her heart filled with expectation and longing. She knew that in the days to come, the friendly exchanges between the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty would become more frequent and in-depth, and the people of the two countries would benefit more from this.

In Dajin, Wanyan Zongyi returned to the capital with a carriage loaded with wheat seeds. He carefully handed these seeds to the agricultural officials and described in detail the amazing agricultural scenes he had seen in the Song Dynasty. After hearing this, the agricultural officials expressed their intention to seriously study the agricultural technology of the Song Dynasty in order to improve their country's agricultural production level. Time flies, spring passes and autumn comes in a blink of an eye. With the joint efforts of the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty, the scale of mutual trade gradually expanded and the types of commodities became increasingly rich. At the same time, agricultural exchanges between the two countries have also achieved remarkable results. After the introduction of high-quality seeds from the Song Dynasty, the winter wheat in the Kingdom of Jin grew well and its yield increased significantly. The merchants of the Song Dynasty also made huge profits through mutual trade, and the economic exchanges between the two countries became increasingly close.

Zhao Yingluo stood in the court hall, watching the carriages loaded with goods coming and going, feeling extremely pleased in her heart. She knew that these carriages not only carried goods and profits, but also carried the friendship and expectations between the two peoples. She firmly believes that as long as the people of the two countries work together and support each other, the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty will usher in a better future.

In the distant future, this good story about mutual trade and seed exchange will always be sung in the hearts of the people of the two countries and become their common beautiful memories and precious wealth.

The years go by and the seasons change. The mutual trade and agricultural exchanges between the Song Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty were as continuous as spring water, and the relationship between the two countries was increasingly deepened in this continuous exchange. As the Princess Supervisor, Zhao Yingluo always pays attention to the development of relations between the two countries. She knows that peace and prosperity are hard-won and need to be cherished and maintained by the people of the two countries.

On this day, the Song Dynasty Hall once again welcomed guests from afar. An envoy from the Kingdom of Jin expressed his deep gratitude to Zhao Yingluo with a letter written by the Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin. The letter mentioned that since the introduction of wheat seeds from the Song Dynasty, the agricultural production of the Jin Kingdom has made unprecedented progress, and the lives of the people have also been greatly improved.

After Zhao Yingluo read the letter, a happy smile appeared on her face. She knew that this was not only a recognition of the agricultural technology of the Song Dynasty, but also an affirmation of the friendly relations between the two countries. She gently said to the envoy: "Your Majesty, envoy, please tell your Majesty that the Song Dynasty is willing to be friendly and prosperous with Daijin from generation to generation. We are willing to continue to share agricultural technology and experience, and we also hope that Daijin can cooperate with us in more fields. .”

When the envoy heard this, he nodded excitedly, indicating that he would convey Zhao Yingluo's words to the Emperor of Jin. He knew that this visit not only fulfilled his mission, but also laid a solid foundation for the further development of relations between the two countries.

As the messenger left, Zhao Yingluo fell into deep thought again. She understands that although relations between the two countries have made significant progress, they still face many challenges and tests. She needs to continue working hard to discuss countermeasures with courtiers to ensure peace and stability in relations between the two countries.

In the days that followed, Zhao Yingluo continued to strengthen exchanges and cooperation with Dajin. She sent envoys to the Kingdom of Jin to learn advanced smelting technology and medical knowledge, and also invited scholars and artists from the Kingdom of Jin to the Song Dynasty to exchange academic and artistic exchanges. The cultural collision and integration between the two countries have brought more enlightenment and enjoyment to the people of the two countries.

At the same time, the agricultural production of the Song Dynasty also achieved new breakthroughs driven by Zhao Yingluo. She advocated the promotion of advanced agricultural technology and management experience, and encouraged farmers to reclaim wasteland, build water conservancy projects, and improve planting techniques. With her efforts, the agricultural production level of the Song Dynasty continued to improve, and the people's lives gradually became richer.

However, just as the relationship between the two countries became increasingly closer, a sudden disaster broke the tranquility. A severe drought occurred in the Kingdom of Jin, resulting in food shortages and hardship for the people. After Zhao Yingluo learned the news, she immediately summoned the courtiers to discuss
