Lin'an City.

As the hot summer passed, Lin'an City immediately entered the restless September.

Seyuan, Shifu, Shi Song's study room.

Shi Songzhi threw the military information letters from all over the place in his hand into the desk, and stood up and paced back and forth in the irritable study. These days, Shi Songzhi has been doing very badly.

The sudden death of Yu Tianxi, the left and right arm, gave him the heaviest blow, who was originally planning to take advantage of Yu Tianxi and him to control the position of left and right prime ministers and restore the former majesty of the Shi clan.

If it were just the death of Yu Tianxi, Shi Songzhi would not be so frustrated with his current status. After all, it was an unexpected surprise that Yu Tianxi could take the position of left prime minister. Without Yu Tianxi, although some of the arrangements that had been made need to be adjusted, it is not that without Yu Tianxi, the left prime minister, the Shi family would not be able to survive.

After all, after Shi Miyuan, he had not even taken the position of left prime minister. Has the Shi clan survived? Not to mention, now, he is still the right prime minister, right? No matter how bad the Shi clan's situation is and how many enemies it has, can it really be worse than before?

It is really halfway through September, and the news one after another has already made Shi Songzhi exhausted.

If it is normal for Xiangyang City to be revived by a group of people to take the opportunity to get out of Lin'an City and go to Xiangyang City to reward the army; then from the time when the Mongolian Sect King Wen Buhua and hundreds of thousands of troops went south to siege Xiangyang City, uncontrollable deviations began to occur when the matter responded.

Of course, the young and energetic allies of the country, who knew that Xiangyang City had become a dragon and tiger den, still insisted on going to Xiangyang City to reward the army. Although it was extremely surprising for everyone from the government and the country, Shi Songzhi had already guessed the result when Zhao Yun said he would let Jia Sidao make his own choice.

Shi Songzhi didn't know much about Jia Sidao before Qionglin Banquet. At most, he only heard about some of his domineering behaviors. After all, his son Shi Xiang and Jia Sidao are actually much the same, and they are all the same.

At the Qionglin Banquet, Jia Sidao was the first time he entered Shi Songzhi's eyelid. Of course, Jia Sidao was not only entered Shi Songzhi's eyelid, but also the first time he made the high-ranking officials and officials in the court start to look at him in person for the first time.

Next, Jia Sidao's official position began to soar sharply as if he was sitting in a rocket. In just ** months, he had already reached a high position like Jin Zi Guanglu Dafu, which was truly entering the center of the Song Dynasty.

Not to mention that Jia Sidao's promotion speed is unprecedented, at least it is unique in the history of the Song Dynasty. Of course, although some people complain about Jia Sidao's good luck, not many people can really find fault. After all, what Jia Sidao does every time he is promoted is not something that ordinary people can do.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be Jia Sidao's turn, right?

Then, due to various chances, Shi Songzhi and Jia Sidao became allies. It is precisely because the two are allies that Shi Songzhi knew Jia Sidao more than most people in the court.

The young senior official, Guoqi, was young and seemed to care about not much, but he was a very proud person in his heart.

If Jia Sidao was so scared that he did not dare to reward the army just because he heard that he besieged Xiangyang City, it would have surprised Shi Songzhi.

The war in Xiangyang became worse and worse day by day, followed by the wars of Sichuan and the Huaidong War Zone, which had basically not experienced much war. It seemed that the Mongols wanted to destroy the Song Dynasty in one go.

During that period, although the court had not reached panic, it was not much better. The war was not good, and the pressure on Shi Songzhi, the Privy Councilor who was in charge of the Privy Council, could be imagined.

Just when Shi Songzhi was thinking about dealing with the war in this way every day and pulling the Mongols to the peace table as soon as possible, he never thought that it was really "the mountains and rivers were full of no way, and the willows and flowers were bright and bright", and there was a sudden news that he was willing to retreat and could not talk to the Song Dynasty.

If it is a good news from others, it is already the best news in this period of time, and it will naturally be called a good news. You will not believe it if you are not too warm to speak.

The Mongols invaded the Song Dynasty at the same time on three sides, and more than one million troops were spent. How much manpower and material resources were spent? Seeing that the Song Dynasty had no more spare energy, Wen Wen Buhua suddenly withdrew his troops? Moreover, seeing the meaning of Meng Gong's words in his letter, it seemed that Wen Wen Buhua took the initiative to propose peace talks.

If it is a bit unbelievable for Shi Songzhi to say that the voluntary withdrawal of the troops in Meng Gong's letter is willing to include the two capitals of Bianliang and Kaifeng in the Song Dynasty in this peace talk. The condition is that in exchange for the support of the Song Dynasty and the secret recipe for making firearms in the Song Dynasty's army, Shi Songzhi didn't believe it at all.

Incorporating Bianliang and Kaifeng into the peace talks? Is there such a simple thing? Kaifeng and Bianliang are more than two cities? The surrounding fertile land is done like this? Well, even if the two capitals are really returned to the Song Dynasty, what is the use of the Song Dynasty coming? Aren’t the Mongolians able to retrieve them at any time? It’s like putting things from the left pocket to the right pocket, and the left pocket is gone. Can you say that the things are lost? Isn’t it still in your own pocket?

What's more, what kind of firearm can make the Mongols spend such a lot of money?

Just as Shi Songzhi was thinking about the conspiracy of the Mongols, the polite document about the truth also came to Zhao Yun's desk.

This document instantly stirred up endless waves in the court of the Song Dynasty.

In the document, Gong Wenbuhua not only personally determined to negotiate with the Song Dynasty, but also clearly stated what to do this time. More than a thousand miles of land south of the Yellow River, including Bianliang and Kaifeng, would be included in the peace talks agenda. At the same time, in order to show Mongolia's sincerity, Gong Wenbuhua not only withdrew from Xiangyang City in advance, but also the remaining Mongolian troops in Sichuan and Huaidong would also stop the offensive against the Song Dynasty at the same time. In the near future, they would retreat to the borders of the two countries before the war began...

One stone stirs up a thousand layers of waves!

The Mongols were actually willing to put all the land in Bianliang and Kaifeng and the surrounding more than a thousand miles of land. This was something that no one in the dynasty of the Song Dynasty had thought about. If the documents were not sent solemnly by the Mongolian peace ambassador who was still staying in Lin'an City, Zhao Yun and a group of ministers of the Song Dynasty would have thought that someone was deliberately teasing the Song Dynasty.

And the place that cannot be discussed is still in Kaifeng City.

The thing that I was most looking forward to was inexplicably present in front of me, as if I was at my fingertips. Although the peace talks had not begun, it was obvious that Gu Wen Bu Hua had already put down the Mongol chips on the table. Now it depends on what kind of chips the Song Dynasty could provide Gu Wen Bu Hua to satisfy Gu Wen.

Everyone in the court and the country seemed to be knocked out by the pie that fell in front of them and fell into fanaticism. However, they did not know whether it was intentionally or unintentionally, the peace talks ambassador who went to Kaifeng City to participate in the peace talks... Jia Sidao ignored them.

Others can ignore or forget it, but Shi Songzhi cannot!

From the bottom of my heart, Shi Songzhi didn't believe in this peace talk at all.

The relationship with Meng Gong made Shi Songzhi understand some things that other ministers in the court did not understand at all.

Well, Shi Songzhi hopes this is true.

However, when he saw the candidate for peace talks designated by Wen Wen Buhua's document, Shi Songzhi keenly realized that the authenticity of the peace talks was not very important. What is important is why Wen Wen Buhua did not conform to the convention and appointed the candidate for peace talks.
