Chapter 54: The Su Dai Comes to Liao (Part 2)

As soon as Su Dai and his party entered Ling'an County, Liao, and stepped onto the official road built by cement, they were shocked and the last few followers. Ling'an's new county magistrate Song Hai had already received an order from the Junhou Mansion and waited for Su Dai next to the official road.

After Su Dai and Song Hai met, they pointed to the cement road beneath their feet and said to Song Hai: "Mr. Song, what is this? Is the official roads in Liao areas paved like this?"

Song Hai obviously answered this question many times, and said to Su Dai: "Mr. Su, this material is called "cement". Now, the official roads of the three county governments in Liao, from Xiangping City to western Liaoning, Jilin and northern Liaoning are all paved with this object. The three newly established county governments in the north have heard that this year the government has organized Guizhou leaders to level the official roads, and plans to pave them with this object every year."

Su Dai frowned slightly, why was he unhappy in his heart, and said to Song Hai: "I don't know how much labor it will take to lay this official road? How can I do this in Liao land, hurt the people and the money?"

The old man Su Dai started to worry about Ji Kang before he arrived in Xiangping City.

Seeing this, Song Hai, the magistrate of Ling'an County, hurriedly said to Su Dai: "Mr. Su Dai, the law of labor has now been abolished in our Liao area. Anyone who builds roads will give money, which is called "wages" in our Liao area. How can we talk about hurting the people's money?"

After hearing Song Hai's explanation, Su Dai still didn't understand, and the word "What is" appeared on his forehead. But he always knew that Liao did not hurt the people and money. But then on the way to Xiangping City, Su Dai's forehead was getting more and more "What is" on his forehead.

Although it was winter, the people along the way were dressed thickly and rosy. Under the organization of the government, they leveled the roads, built ditches, and laughed and said, which was indeed not like a waste of money and money! Young Master Ji Kang could actually make Liao land do this.

Su Dai passed by a village, and in a brick and tile structure next to it, there were a loud sound of reading in a courtyard that looked very beautiful. There were a few old people outside who looked like the old village, and they were also listening outside the courtyard.

Su Dai asked the car to stop and stayed outside the courtyard, listening quietly to the sound of reading from the courtyard. Then he bowed to the villagers and said, "Old man, who is doing this?"

These village elders said to Su Dai: "Sir, this is run by our Liao government. Nowadays, the children are in a good time. Every village has schools to teach them to read and read."

Su Dai was shocked and said to the Liao officials who were accompanying him: "Now, do I have this school in every village in Liao?"

The official nodded and said to Su Dai: "Yes, sir. Our Liao area now implements a compulsory teaching system, and there are such schools in every village."

After hearing this, Su Dai was speechless for a while. Then he smiled and said softly: "The Great Dao Xiyin, that's all!"

On the way to Xiangping City, Su Dai also discovered that the entire Liao area was also full of a strong atmosphere of war. Every day, you can see many soldiers arranged neatly and headed towards Xiangping City in groups.

The more we went to Xiangping City, the more soldiers we saw, and the official road was carrying the army's food, supplies, military supplies and other vehicles, which were gathering in Xiangping City in a steady stream.

Seeing this, Su Dai knew that a great war was about to go to Liao.

In mid-February, after Su Dai arrived in Xiangping City, he came to Junhou Mansion. Ji Kang and Junxiang Ju Xin, Zou Yan, Lu Zhonglian, and the boss manager Ji Mao and others personally welcomed Su Dai's arrival.

Su Dai looked at the handsome and young king in front of him, and then looked at the people who were familiar with Yan's court before. His eyes were red and he bowed deeply to Ji Kang and said, "Old minister Su Dai, pay homage to the young master!"

Ji Kang stepped forward, helped Su Dai up, and said to Su Dai: "Master Su Dai, you must not do this."

After Su Dai stood still, Ji Kang took a step back, then clasped his fists and bowed deeply to Su Dai, "Mr. Su Dai, you are wronged, welcome to go home! You are polite here."

When Su Dai saw Ji Kang like this, his eyes were moist, and then he burst into tears.

When Jun Xiangju Xin, Zou Yan and others saw this, they felt the same and their eyes were red.

Here, I will talk about the experience of Su Dai.

Su Dai, a native of Luoyi, Eastern Zhou Dynasty. He was a traitor and the younger brother of Su Qin.

During the Zhou Dynasty, when the State of Chu attacked the Yong family of South Korea, South Korea dispatched troops to collect grain from the Zhou emperor. The Emperor Zhou was very distressed and discussed with Su Dai.

Su Dai said to the Emperor Zhou: "Son of the Emperor, what's wrong with it? Su Dai went to Korea this time and would make Han not conquer Jia and Su in Zhou, and he would also be able to win the capital for the Lord."

Emperor Zhou was very happy and said to Su Dai: "If sir can really do such a thing, please listen to the country."

So Su Dai went to South Korea to pay homage to Han’s grandfather Zhongqiu and said, “Has the prime minister not heard of Chu’s plan? Chu general Zhaoying once said to King Huai of Chu: “South Korea was exhausted due to years of war, the warehouse was empty, and there was no strength to defend the city. If our army led troops to attack the Yong family in South Korea when food was insufficient, then it would take less than a month to occupy the Yong family.”

"The Chu State has been surrounded by Yong's clan for five months, but it still has not been captured. This also proves that Chu State is exhausted, and the King of Chu has also begun to doubt Zhao Ying's statement. The Prime Minister actually dispatched troops to the Zhou Dynasty to collect grain. This is not clearly telling Chu State that South Korea is exhausted. Zhao Ying knows that in the future, he will definitely ask the King of Chu to increase his troops to surround Yong's clan, and Yong's clan will not be able to defend it."

After hearing Su Dai's words, Gong Zhonggao said to Su Dai: "Mr.'s opinion is very clever, but the envoy of this sect has already set out."

Seeing this, Su Dai smiled and said to Gong Zhongqiu: "Prime Minister, this matter is easy! Why don't the Prime Minister give Gao to the Emperor of Zhou?"

When Gong Zhonggao heard this, he was very angry and said to Su Dai: "Mr. Su Dai, it is good enough that he did not dispatch troops from the Zhou emperor to collect grain. Why did he give it to the Zhou emperor Gaodu?"

Su Dai shook his head and then said to Han's grandfather Zhongqiu: "If the prime minister could give Gao Du to the Zhou emperor, then the Zhou Dynasty would definitely have a strong diplomatic relationship with South Korea. In this way, when Qin knew about it, he would be very angry and burned the Zhou Dynasty's talismans and cut off the exchanges between envoys."

"In other words, as long as the prime minister uses a poor Gaodu, he can exchange it for a complete Zhou Dynasty. Why is the prime minister unwilling to do so?"

(In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, envoys had to carry talismans for verification and verification, so burning talismans means that the two countries had to cut off diplomatic relations)

When Gong Zhong heard this, he was silent for a long time before he said to Su Dai: "Sir. What Mr. said is very true."

So Gong Zhonggao decided not only not to dispatch troops from the Zhou emperor to collect grain, but also gave Gao Du to the Zhou Dynasty, and Chu State retreated.

From this, Su Dai saw that the Zhou family was weak and the world was "destroying rituals and music were broken". He placed the hope of unification of the world on the royal family of Yan, whose blood ties were closest to the Zhou family. He always wanted to support the royal family of Yan and strengthen the national strength of Yan. In this way, he came to Yan when he was very young.

According to the historical records of Ji Kang's previous life, Su Dai regarded Yan as his homeland after coming to Yan State. During the rest of his life in Su Dai, no matter in any country, he was always thinking about Yan State and running for the life and death of Yan State until his life ended.

After Su Dai came to Yan State, he first worked for Ji Kang's ancestor King Kuai. Later, the "abdication" incident occurred in Yan State, and turmoil occurred within the country. The various vassal states sent troops to attack Yan State, and Su Dai was forced to flee to Qi State.

Later, Ji Kang's Taizu King Zhao of Yan ascended the throne and was eager to seek talent. He sent someone to Qi State to ask Su Dai if he was willing to return to Yan State?

Su Dai, who had already done well in Qi, heard the call of his home country, without saying a word, resigned from his high-paid position in Qi State. He followed the envoy sent by King Zhao of Yan and rushed back to Yan State and was appointed as the Minister of Yan State by King Zhao of Yan.

The State of Qi was very powerful at that time, and sent troops to occupy the territory and cities of Yan many times, bringing endless humiliation to the State of Yan.

King Zhao of Yan was very talented and wanted to attack Qi in order to clean up the shame that Qi brought to Yan. But at that time, relying solely on the power of Yan State was not enough. So, Su Dai and his brother Su Qin, went to Qi together with King Zhao of Yan, and lobbied the then king of Qi, King Qin, and asked King Min of Qi to be the emperor first and then attack Song.

At that time, King Min of Qi followed the advice of Su Qin and Su Dai. After becoming emperor, he sent troops to occupy the State of Song. King Min of Qi's arrogance aroused the anger of the countries in the world at that time. All countries sent troops to jointly attack Qi. The powerful Qi State was almost swallowed up by Yan State because of this matter.

Of course, if King Zhao of Yan of Yan had not passed away, it would be impossible to replace Le Yi, the commander of the Yan army, and Qi was definitely occupied by Yan. But in this way, after this, the powerful Qi State began to decline.

From then on, Su Dai, like his brother Su Qin, began to gain fame among the various vassal states in the Central Plains.

Even when Ji Kang's great-grandfather, King Hui of Yan ascended the throne and the weakest period of Yan State, Su Dai also made great contributions to Yan State.

During the reign of King Hui of Yan, the Yan army was defeated by Tiandan of Qi, and Yan failed to attack Qi. Ji Kang's grandfather, King Huiwen of Zhao, was also preparing to go out of Yan. Under the circumstances at that time, Yan was very critical and faced a collapse.

Just as Yan State was living and dead, Su Dai stood up and went to Zhao State to lobby King Huiwen of Zhao, creating the famous allusion of "the snipe and clam fight, and the fisherman gained profit".

Su Dai said to King Huiwen of Zhao: "Now, I came to Zhao and passed by Yishui. The clam was exposed. The snipe pecked at its flesh. The clam merged and clam clam clam clam clam clam clams and clam beak. The snipe said, "If it doesn't rain today, there will be a dead clam." The clam also said to the snipe, "If it doesn't rain today, there will be a dead clam." The two refused to give up each other, and the fishermen got it and fowled it together."

Speaking of this, Su Dai said to King Huiwen of Zhao: "Now Zhao is attacking Yan, and Yan and Zhao have been in charge for a long time. I am afraid that Qin will be the fisherman. Therefore, I hope that the king will plan it well."

After hearing Su Dai's words, Ji Kang's grandfather, King Huiwen of Zhao, pondered for a long time and said to Su Dai: "Sir. This is very true."

Therefore, King Huiwen of Zhao stopped his plan to attack Yan State and resolved the crisis of Yan State.

But then, the prime minister Gongsun Cao "killed the regicide" incident occurred in Yan State.

At that time, Su Dai was unwilling to see that such a situation occurred in Yan State. Seeing this, he was forced to flee to Zhao State.

When Su Dai arrived in Zhao State, he was also concerned about Yan State. Although he had any objections to Yan Prime Minister Gongsun Cao, Zhao State had been preparing to attack Yan State many times, but was blocked by Su Dai's lobbying.

Until today, at Ji Kang's request, he returned to Liao and Yan State! It was before returning to Liao State that Su Dai followed Ji Kang's secret order and went to Qin State at his age in his sixties. He also lobbyed Fan Sui to make him disagree with the general Wu'an Jun Bai Qi.

Therefore, Ji Kang disrespects the elderly who dedicated his whole life to the old man in Yan State, who was loyal to Yan State until his death, and who made great contributions to Yan State many times? Can he disrespect?

No matter how much respect you are, it is not an exaggeration! No matter how much respect you are, it is not an exaggeration!

In the thirteenth year of King Wucheng, in mid-February, a generation of masters from Zongheng, Su Dai came to Liao and was appointed as the Liao Diyaqing by Ji Kang, in charge of affairs of the Ministry of Rites.

When the news came out, the entire Yan State caused a sensation again.

After seeing the news, Yan Xiangsuo was speechless for a long time. In the study, he said softly: "Young Master Kang, you have a lot of wings! What can you do with this?"

When I opened the study window, I found that the branches outside the study had sprouted tender buds.
