There were also Song Dynasty, Pang Ji and Wang Yaochen who participated in the negotiations. After all, they were the queens and abducted the queens of other countries. It seemed that this was the first time the Song Dynasty did this. Zhao Zhen was very worried and sent three important officials to participate at the same time.

But now it seems that there is no need.

Facing Zheng Lang's strongness, Song frowned. He was an honest man. Zheng Lang's powerful method was inconsistent with his personality. Pang Ji had a deep face and never said a word. However, Wang Yaochen smiled and almost rushed over and hugged Zheng Lang. Boss, he had to do this!

After all, our Song Dynasty was still a great power in the world, so why was it so weak to the outside world?

He suddenly pinched the lifeline of Xixia, but Zheng Lang began to regress. Zhang Chi was very upright and still hoped that Xixia would fight the Khitan with peace of mind. He continued, "Don't talk about invasion and private salt. How much private salt is smuggled from Xixia in a year? Do you really want to know?"

"That is private transactions. If the Khitan bans horses and leads to your country, can the horses ban it?"

Not only did the Khitan ban horses, but the Western Xia also ban horses and did not ban it. However, it was effective. In addition to the war, the Song Dynasty received fewer and fewer horses from the two countries in recent years. Fortunately, Zheng Lang repeatedly requested that the Song Dynasty opened horse prisons several roads on the edge, and the correct locations for horse feeding, and more horse breeding were used by Fanzi to raise horses, which was quite similar to the Tang Dynasty's horse breeding system in Longyou, Hetao, and the Western Regions. The effect was significant. The number of war horses was not short, but the scale was small and the area of ​​pastoral supervision was small, which could not meet the demand for agricultural arable land and livestock.

It seems to be a saying.

Zheng Lang snorted coldly: "Okay, then I can order the prefectures in Shaanxi to set up checkpoints on all private salt channels. How about strict inspection?"

Yang Shousu is about to sweat again, but this is a very smart person, and he suddenly realizes it. A trace of surprise flashes in his eyes and asks: "Your country supports..."

"What do you support! I don't understand." Zheng Lang shouted.

You know, Xixia fought against the Khitan. At least the cards won't be much better. Besides, there was a Ning Ling Ge who asked the Khitans to use it. The Song Dynasty was not easy to support it publicly, but it could support it secretly. Your Xixia smuggled a lot of salt, which was equivalent to the Song Dynasty supporting Xixia a lot of money and silk, so that Xixia supported this war.

The Song Dynasty did not have a good intention and intended to make both countries suffer losses, but what if they know? At least it is better than a destruction of the country.

Yang Shousu almost wanted to leave and immediately sent the news back to China.

But this can only be understood, not written in words.

Zheng Lang said again: "In the past, when Shanhui Weiliang joined our court, our court handed over to you Xixia for reconciliation between the two countries. Is it sufficient sincerity? However, how did your first lord treat our court? This time, if the father and daughter are not moved, it is impossible to send them back again. This is a lesson for you Xixia. If the father and daughter are not moved, they are voluntarily come to join us. It is not our court that we will deceive you Xixia tribes to join us. This is the only answer that our court has given you. But if you Xixia is not hostile and continue to invade the farming, harass the border, or invade, then the unchanged tribe is a role model. Our court will absorb all the Xixia tribes to join us. Advance and retreat are between your Xixia thoughts."

Back to this topic.

The world is not a smart person, Zheng Lang, and Yang Shousu is also very smart.

It seems that this is an exchange. Our Song Dynasty took in the tribe and the father and daughter, and we also gave you some compensation, relaxed the amount of private salt, and gave you a more economic and economic battle with the Khitan.

But the fact is that the continued war between the Western Xia and the Khitan was very beneficial to the Song Dynasty.

In the short term, I got some money, but this was under the control of the Song Dynasty. I was banned if I said it. I could live for thirty or forty years without relocation. I might live for fifty or sixty years if I had long life orders, and at least I would have appeal within these ten years.

So Yang Shousu kept silent.

Zheng Lang continued: "Yang Shousu, have you seen two moons in the sky?"

"No."

"There are no two moons in the sky, how can two mothers come from a country on the earth? Why did the father and daughter flee to our court without moving? No, your queen mother is very afraid of their father and daughter, and will harm them sooner or later."

"Things are not."

"Do you believe it?"

"No," Yang Shousu replied again, but he answered very guiltyly.

"Why forcefully cover up for yourself? Don't say that you Xixia do not understand etiquette. It is placed in our Central Plains dynasties and generations. The emperor is young and the empress dowager is in charge of politics. If there were two empress dowagers, it would not be allowed. Now she joins our dynasty and is only a commoner. Our dynasty takes the initiative to resolve a serious crisis for you Xixia. Are you not grateful?"

"This is a cunning judgment!" Li Shougui said angrily.

That's right.

Like Li Yuanhao, Zheng Lang had a slander and even if he did not move his family in the future, a small civil strife would be better than her resignation to the Song Dynasty. Zheng Lang smiled and did not think that this sentence would have hurt the sloppy words. He also said: "The court is also ready to enthrone your young little prince as the king."

Li Shougui stopped talking.

The Khitan did not recognize the Liangzuo regime, but the Song Dynasty did not recognize it, and only sent envoys to mourn Li Yuanhao's funeral. Once recognized by the Song Dynasty, there would be many remarks invisibly. This is invisible, but it is very important for the Western Xia today.

Yang Shousu stumbled: "Let's consider it."

"Okay, wait for the good news." Zheng Lang took Pang Ji and the other two to say goodbye.

Then I saw Zhao Zhen, and told the result, and said, "No matter whether it is not moved or Brother Ning Ling, it has some effect, but the negative effect is greater. Brother Ning Ling is the prince, with the name of orthodox, and the negative effect is greater. Because Brother Ning Ling and the forced by the Khitan, our court made some seemingly concessions, and the negative effect will be eliminated a lot, especially the enthronement of the king."

A few months ago, the court wanted to appoint Ning Lingge as the king of the country, so Zheng Lang stopped him.

This is a good game of chess, and you can't throw it out as a cabbage. It's not until then that you can see its function.

"Xixia will definitely agree that our court will take in and not move his father and daughter. Maybe they are angry, but with Brother Ning Ling's forced, even if they can only keep the hatred in their hearts. However, I am worried that when the Khitan sees the war is unfavorable, Xixia will give them some benefits. The Khitan will hand over Ning Ling's brother. Therefore, I think that I can send an envoy to Jinsuzhou and bring 50,000 pieces of silk. I promise that Khitan gets Ning Ling's brother and promote justice."

"Why?" Song Xiang was puzzled. Fifty thousand pieces of silk are not small numbers, worth 100,000 jin. How many victims can be saved?

"Boying, 50,000 pieces of silk seem to be a big deal, but it is used on the battlefield. It cannot even support a small battle. I congratulate the Khitans to get Ning Ling Ge and put this matter on the table. The Khitans are embarrassed to show their weakness and take the initiative to hand over Ning Ling Ge to Xixia. Otherwise, what kind of face will I have to accept my tribute in the future? As long as Ning Ling Ge is in the hands of the Khitans, no matter whether they have no brothers and sisters or this growing little prince, they will have to be in trouble with the Khitans. If our dynasty uses private salt to support the Western Xia economy, the Western Xia will carry out a lasting battle with the Khitans, and then both tigers will be seriously injured. What is this value?"

Song Xiang could not answer. If the effect Zheng Lang really achieved, even five million pieces of silk would be worth it.

This is also a must.

The Emperor Zhu Qizhen of the Ming Dynasty was taken as a strange product by the Tatars, but the effect of the strange product did not show up. On the contrary, it aroused the sadness of the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. The Tatars saw that it was not good and dared not kill him. They were afraid that the Ming Dynasty would be angry and would kill them and blackmail them to death. Instead, they spent a lot of money to raise Zhu Qizhen. In the end, we had no choice but to give this emperor to you.

But Zhu Qiyu ignored it. Good brother, you should be the prince of the grassland. This attitude in the Ming Dynasty made the Tatars very miserable. In the end, he spent a lot of effort to get Zhu Qizhen back to the Ming Dynasty. As for the benefits, he got nothing!

The two are very similar.

If the Khitan discovered that Brother Ning Ling was not the strange thing they thought, and the stalemate of the war continued, Brother Ning Ling would be sent back to Xixia.

They cannot be allowed to send it. Once you give it to two countries, there will be no grudges. If you don’t give it to two countries, there will always be grudges.

Zhao Zhen thought about it seriously and said, "Accurate."

Song Xiang asked hesitantly again: "On the one hand, our dynasty congratulated Khitan to obtain Brother Ning Ling, and he also enthroned the small king of Xixia. Will it be..."

"It's okay, my dynasty has been used to being very weak, and this approach is in line with the previous performance of our dynasty." Zheng Lang sarcastically sarcastically, and it was also the truth, and said: "Although the Khitans were a little dissatisfied, they had 50,000 pieces of silk, which was a considerable income for the poor Khitans, and the complaints would disappear. When the war stalemate continued, the Khitans were also afraid that our dynasty would join forces with Xixia, just as the Xixia was afraid that our dynasty would take the opportunity to use troops against Xixia. The form was reversed from the beginning of the Qingli period. At that time, we were worried about Xixia and our dynasty, but now we were worried about Khitans and Xixia. Our dynasty did not take the opportunity to blackmail like the Khitans, so they would say thank you."

Zhao Zhen smiled. Even if he had the ability to blackmail, what could he blackmail? Two poor neighbors and two evil neighbors would rather kill them than try to squeeze out some oil and water from them.

Discuss the candidate for envoy.

Zheng Lang recommended Wang Su again.

When it comes to the candidates for missions, these gentlemen must be used.

I also wanted to make Wang Su more successful. I had too few confidants in the court and did not consider power. At least I had to wait until the Liuta River was fully implemented before I could leave the position of Prime Minister. Moreover, the country would have to use a large amount of silver in the future...

Yang Shousu was also writing a letter back.

Notified the approximate situation of the situation, and the Song Dynasty slapped it in the face, but gave it another red date. People would not return it, so they could be compensated by enthroning Liangzuo and relaxing private salt.

Then to be honest, the Song Dynasty did not have a good intention, including Di Qing, who was fully capable of building a fortress on Fulin Road and regaining the lost Fengzhou territory, but the Song Dynasty did not do so. Yang Shousu privately thought that the Song Dynasty had bad intentions.

Di Qing sent troops to make the people of the prefectures and prefectures feel at ease. Otherwise, under the invasion of Western Xia, the people will be far away from the prefectures and Linzhou. Without the people, there will be no Zhe family army. The Fulin Road is abandoned, and the Song Dynasty lost an important horse-raising base. Because there are no people farming, the grain output will decrease. The food must be transported from the Central Plains to Hedong and then from Hedong to the prefectures, which is huge. Therefore, the troops sent to let the people farm with peace of mind in the rear.

But Fengzhou was not recaptured and made it an idle land, which may be to find excuses for future troops. Therefore, Yang Shousu believed that after the end of the war with the Khitan, he had to negotiate border matters with the Song Dynasty and then discuss the matter of not being allowed to take in the other party to defect to the people.

Both must be made clear, otherwise there will be endless disasters.

A very smart man, but after the letter was sent away, he was very worried. Quye River was rich in water and grass, and it was suitable for farming and herding. It was mostly possessed by greed. When Yuan Hao was alive last year, Wuzang Epang organized people to invade and make money for himself.

Although I said it, I might not listen. Maybe a pit left by this little prime minister, I would take the initiative to jump down. I think it would be of great benefit to him not talking about the boundaries of the territory and boundaries, so that he would continue to invade and farm.

However, he refused to change his mind. The Song Dynasty had few ministers like Zheng Lang who had a long-term vision, and were mostly stupid, incompetent and greedy. Moreover, Zheng Lang was not old, and as the prime minister, some ministers must be dissatisfied, so he secretly sent someone to inquire, which really made him hear a minister who could speak.

Because Zheng Lang promoted the relationship between the three countries became more and more complicated, and the Song Dynasty must have started to laugh, but who can laugh to the end depends on the vision and ability of the ministers of the Three Kingdoms.

I went to morning court the next day.

He Tan reported: "Your Majesty, I think it is inappropriate to take in the family without relocating it. The two countries have been peaceful for several years and the country is prosperous and the people are safe, which is beneficial to our dynasty. If you relocate the family, it is the mother of the Western Xia Kingdom. If you accept it, there will be endless troubles."

After saying that, he withdrew.

Zheng Lang was not angry either. At that time, in order to keep the secret, there were not many ministers who knew about this matter. It was not until the envoy of Xixia arrived in Beijing that Yanchen realized that his father and daughter had not moved his father and daughter to the Song Dynasty. He asked slowly: "What Censor He said is nothing more than eight words. If anyone does not offend me, I will not offend others."

"Yes," He Tan replied in a deep voice. He was not hostile to Zheng Lang, at least in the matter of disaster relief, he admired Zheng Lang's timely reaction. Just discuss the matter, right is right, wrong is wrong, this is the job of Yanchen.

"Civil Secretary He, if someone put down his butcher's knife after committing murder and said that I would not kill anyone, should the court punish him according to the law?"

What He Tan said is on the surface that people do not offend me, but I do not offend others. In fact, the enemy does not recruit me, and I do not recruit enemies. However, if the enemy slapped a big shot, I also want to slapped the enemy. The front is right, and there is also the back. The enemy slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapped the slapp

How can there be such a fool in the world?

There is really a 300-year-old Song Dynasty, which has produced countless top figures, has been playing this stupid role for at least two hundred years. The Song Dynasty fell and continued.

It is not a big deal that if he had not performed well in the northwest, he would have analyzed his interests, many ministers from the two prefectures, including Song Xiang, would still object. Even so, Song Xiang still believes and doubts.

I don’t know where the mistake happened. Originally, Zhao Kuangyin didn’t blindly open the border, hoping that the people would have a stable life, but after being tampered with by the literati group, he became so introverted that he became fools. Even if he did not allow the martial artist group to gain power, as for being so cowardly?

He Tan heard Zheng Lang's voice out of the way, frowned and said, "But the border is peaceful."

"Why should the border stability be true? In order to seek peace, our dynasty is obviously the victory side, but it pays 200,000 yuan a year. But what about the border? Private salt, trespass, plunder, and every year some border people kill the other side. Is this the so-called stability?"

"Di Qing has attacked the opponent in the northwest."

"What if the attack fails? Or how about Xixia deliberately used the invasion and farming to lure us to attack the border army, but set up an ambush in the middle of the way?"

"I have a discussion," said Wu Dingchen, the Zhijianyuan.

"Rhyme."

"What Zheng Lang said seems to be a three-part truth, but the fact that he did not transfer his clan was the mother of the Xixia country. If he took in the other side, it would be contrary to the national system, so this case cannot be opened."

Zheng Lang wanted to go up and beat Wu Dingchen up and take in the other mother of the country? If he did not change this dynasty, the princesses, queens and concubines of the Zhao family were all turned into concubines, maids, and military prostitutes decades later. After the turn, they became concubines, maids, and military prostitutes. I don’t know what they became.

Suddenly a trace of light appeared in Zheng Lang's eyes.

Wu Dingchen impeached him and made him realize that something was wrong. He was from Jia Changchao.
