The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 616 Ascension to the throne and emperor?

After the two emperors Huiqin were captured, the envoy Xuanwu immediately sent a letter asking the Jin Dynasty to send troops to reinforce him.Because this matter could not be kept secret for long, Wanyan Sheng was overjoyed when he heard the news, and never thought of sending troops to support him.But they can't go by land, they can only choose to walk by water.

Wanyan Sheng sent troops from Liaoyang Mansion to meet Xuanwu envoy and others via the Bohai Sea. When they saw that Emperor Huiqin had been captured, they immediately sent them eight hundred miles to Shangjing Mansion to report the news to Wan Yansheng.After Wanyan Sheng learned about it, he immediately sent envoys to the Great Song Dynasty to negotiate with it.

The envoy of the Jin Dynasty was none other than Guo Yaoshi.

At the beginning, Guo Yaoshi also followed Zhao Gou to resist the Jin soldiers. After the two sides fought, Zhao Gou sent people to search and found that there was no body of him, and there was no trace of him.When we met today, I realized that Guo Yaoshi had joined the Great Jin Dynasty and became the commander of the Jin army, especially the emissary this time.

"His Royal Highness, don't come here without any harm!" Guo Yaoshi saw Zhao Gou and immediately greeted him. He is already a general of the Jin Dynasty, and he is not afraid of what Zhao Gou will do to him. This time he came prepared, and he didn't care much. Zhao Gou and others looked at him.

"It's you!" Gao Chong gritted his teeth and was about to step forward to take him down. He never thought that there would be a traitor in Da Song.

"General Guo must have something to say when he sees me!" Zhao Gou stopped Gao Chong, and said lightly, "I don't know what the emperor of the Jin Dynasty wants, so you might as well say it!"

"Speak quickly!" Guo Yaoshi praised, "When you talk to a smart person, you don't have to talk too much, which saves everyone's time. Today, I came to Bianjing on behalf of the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty. His Highness King Yan is negotiating."

"What did he want us to do to release the Second Emperor?" Zhao Gou stated his purpose directly.

Guo Yaoshi replied: "I told the emperor that as long as King Yan agrees to the three requirements, Emperor Huiqin can return to Bianjing safely. If he can't, then Emperor Huiqin will become the lowest slave. , all decisions are in the hands of King Yan."

"Which three requirements?"

"The first requirement is that the Song Dynasty must pay the Dajin Dynasty annual coins, which is [-] more silver coins, [-] pieces of cloth, silk and other things than the Liao Dynasty, that is, bow to the Dajin Dynasty, See the emperor of the Jin Dynasty with the courtesy of a monarch and minister."

"The second request is that the Song Dynasty must cede land to compensate for the loss of the Southern Invasion of the Great Song Dynasty. The emperor of our dynasty did not want to take advantage of the danger, but just took back the land that originally belonged to the Liao Dynasty. In the Jin Dynasty, I, the Emperor, will naturally not pursue it, and I will no longer send troops to attack the Song Dynasty."

"As for the third request, it is the head of King Yan! His Royal Highness King Yan led the Song army to kill more than [-] soldiers of our dynasty, and suffered heavy losses. To pay homage to those dead soldiers with the head of King Yan alone It can be regarded as giving the Song Dynasty a face."

Guo Yaoshi paused, looked at Zhao Gou again, and said casually: "As long as His Royal Highness King Yan agrees to these three requests, Song and Jin will no longer go to war, and the two emperors of the Song Dynasty will be sent back safely. If His Highness does If not, then it is unknown what the two emperors will look like in the Jin Dynasty."

Zhao Gou stared and said, "Are you threatening me? What if I don't agree?"

"No?" Guo Yaoshi raised his head proudly, looked down at Zhao Gou, and said arrogantly: "If you don't agree, you can just wait to collect the body for the second emperor! You just wait for the golden army and iron cavalry to attack the Song Dynasty again. Watch the Song Dynasty fall with your own eyes!"

"Now that the two emperors Huiqin are in our hands, I still advise you to answer after thinking about it. Don't let yourself regret it. If something happens to the two emperors Huiqin, I'm afraid His Royal Highness King Yan will end up killing his father." Brother's crime!"

Gao Chong pointed at Guo Yaoshi's nose and cursed: "You bastard with a heart and a heart, I will kill you with one blow!"

"Stop!" Zhao Gou yelled, "Don't back down! Don't you even listen to my order?"

"Obey!" Gao Chong retreated helplessly, not daring to make any moves, but his eyes were full of murderous intent, as if he wanted to kill Guo Yaoshi immediately.

Guo Yaoshi was taken aback by Gao Chong's behavior, and said again: "One more thing, this person is rude to this emissary, and he will go on the road with you at that time, otherwise you will not be able to afford the consequences! I will Stay in Bianjing for a few days, waiting for His Royal Highness King Yan's reply."

Guo Yaoshi ignored Zhao Gou, didn't even look at him, turned and left arrogantly.

"My lord, why don't you let me kill this despicable villain!"

Zhao Gou replied: "If it was really possible, I would have killed him long ago. Now is not the time, he is an envoy of the Jin Dynasty. If there is anything wrong, it is difficult to explain to the Jin Dynasty. If it weren't for the second Emperor Huiqin in the Jin Dynasty Even if they kill him, there is nothing they can do."

"Ninth brother, we cannot agree to these three requests!" Zhao Yougong said solemnly, "No matter what the conditions are, the future of the Song Dynasty is bound to be in jeopardy. Whether it is bowing his head to be a minister, or cutting the land for compensation, or committing suicide and apologizing, etc. I can't agree."

"If all the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were given to the Jin Dynasty, then the Jin soldiers invaded the Song Dynasty in the south, and they went to the best barrier. Absolutely unacceptable."

"Ninth brother, you led the soldiers of the Song army to work together to stop the golden soldiers. This is because they are jealous of you. If Da Song loses you, then Da Song will also go on the road to perdition. So no matter which one you can't agree to, if you agree , then Da Song is really over."

"His Royal Highness Chu Wang said it is very true, and the ministers and others are against such conditions!"

Pan Lianggui, Li Gang and the others echoed Zhao Yougong's words. They all felt that this matter could not be agreed to. Even if they agreed to the wolfish ambitions of the Jinren, there was no guarantee that they would not break their promises and resolutely send troops to attack Song Dynasty. Wouldn't it be a loss Madam broke up again.

"I don't know this!" Zhao Gou said helplessly, "However, the two emperors of Huiqin are in the hands of the Jinren. They hold our lifeblood. If they don't agree, there will be danger. If they don't agree, the people of the world will die How to treat me, they will definitely think that I, Zhao Gou, disregarded the life and death of the Second Emperor for the sake of power, and then I am a sinner of the Song Dynasty."

"Even so, that can't be agreed!" Zhao Yougong said resolutely, "They just think that Emperor Huiqin is very important to our court, but the current situation is not what they think. A country cannot live without a king, they think If Emperor Huiqin is in their hands, we will be beaten passively. It is better to re-establish a new emperor. At that time, we don’t have to worry about their threats. Even if Emperor Huiqin really has something to do, it is for the sake of the overall situation. Make irresponsible remarks."

"Ascend to the throne as the emperor, and establish a new emperor?" Zhao Gou frowned and said, "But the second emperor Huiqin did not die. If he really established a new emperor, wouldn't it be the same as committing rebellion. Besides, the emperor Brother, he didn't make a will, so the name is not right and the word is not right!"

The crowd fell silent again. They all knew that if they ascended the throne and proclaimed themselves emperor rashly without the imperial edict, they would be guilty of rioting.If the two emperors of Huiqin returned to Beijing, they would all be guilty ministers, and their names were not justified.Even if the situation is urgent, it has to be carefully considered.
