Chapter 68 The Alliance of Taiyuan
Zhao Huan gave the order, and the generals who had been waiting outside for a long time rushed in. Yao Gu drew out his sword, and Yao Pingzhong on the side pressed Wanyan Zongpan to the ground.
"Thief! Death!"
Wanyan Zongpan's face turned green, and he was so scared that his whole body was covered in cold sweat: "Wait, the Holy Emperor, let's give up the matter of the annual monies! Let's give up!"
Zhao Huan frowned and shouted: "Where is my knife!"
Seeing that the emperor turned against him and was about to kill someone, Liu Yanzong quickly stood up and said, "Stop being angry, I think I'll listen to him."
"What do you think! Who dares to ask about the annual monies in front of me? I will tear him to pieces and feed him to the dog!"
Wanyan Zongpan was pressed to the ground by Yao Pingzhong, and he could not move, so he had to beg for mercy: "The Holy Emperor, it was a mistake in the next moment. The Holy Emperor was like the sea, so I will spare this next time!"
At this time, Master Zhong also stood up and said, "Sir, calm down. Since the emperor promised to help him ascend to the throne of the Golden Emperor, the two sides will have a cooperative relationship in the future. Since he had a temporary missed speech, please forgive him."
Yao Gu said angrily: "No! Zhong Shuai, this guy is determined to destroy my Song Dynasty and must be killed!"
"Your Majesty, my Song Dynasty uses millions of warriors to capture Yan Yun, why should we cooperate with this beast!"
Seeing that the knife in Yao Gu's hand was only a slight cut from Wanyan Zongpan's neck, Liu Yanzong immediately said: "Your Majesty, the two armies will not be killed when they fight!"
The emperor took his sword from the servant, unsheathed the knife, and inserted it on the ground with a loud bang, and said murderously: "Bad! I cut him down! Again, attack Yan Yun in the north, let Wanyan Sheng's dog come to me to try it!"
Mr. Zhong said: "The holy emperor is kind and virtuous. The old minister thinks that he will spare his life, so what he says."
Zhao Huan stared at Wanyan Zongpan with murderous aura and suddenly said, "Yao Pingzhong, Yao Gu, you guys should retreat first."
"yes!"
Zhao Huan suddenly smiled affectionately, and personally stepped forward to support Wanyan Zongpan: "The Jin Dynasty's subordinates were frightened. I was just joking with you just now, don't take it seriously."
Damn it! Wanyan Zongpan almost jumped up. Is this how he joked!
He didn't believe that the emperor was joking with him. Seeing the emperor change his face immediately, changing his face faster than flipping a book, Wanyan Zongpan complained in his heart. Liu Yanzong was right, the emperor's mind was lacking!
Too dangerous! Too dangerous!
I felt unhappy, but my expression was done well. Looking at Zhao Huan with a kind and kind smile, like the handsome little brother next door, Wanyan Zongpan also laughed. Those who didn't know thought the two were neighbors who had not seen each other for a long time.
"The Holy Emperor's mind is wider than the vast sea. I admire the Holy Emperor like the water of the Yellow River.
"I have any other requests, even if I ask, I agree!"
All agree! Damn it! You will die if you don’t open your eyes and tell lies! I just mentioned the issue of the annual monies, but I almost got killed by you. I have any other requests. Do I dare to mention it?
Wanyan Zongpan, who was as aggrieved as a young wife bullied by her mother-in-law, could only hold all the grievances in his heart. He knew that the emperor was arbitrary and domineering, had to cooperate with the emperor's acting skills and praised the emperor, "Thank you, Emperor Sheng!"
"Son of the Emperor, I have another small request."
"Though say it!"
"I have heard of the beautiful women in the Song Dynasty for a long time, and the princess in the Song Dynasty is virtuous and kind, so I think..."
Before Wanyan Zongpan finished speaking, he saw that Zhao Huan's originally sunny face suddenly became dark clouds. He quickly swallowed up the words he wanted to say, and then rebuilt them again: "I'm just looking forward to it for a long time and have no other intentions. If you are lucky enough to go to Bianjing City, you will be lucky in three lives and fortunate in three lives!"
"This is easy to say. One day, I will invite you, Wanyan Zongpan, to Bianjing, but you must not learn from the lyrics of the late emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty!"
As soon as Zhao Huan said this, Wanyan Zongpan's face immediately turned pale.
The meaning of Zhao Huan's words is already very obvious. He is reminding him of the Song Dynasty's destruction of the Southern Tang Dynasty. When I destroy the Jin Kingdom in the future, I will take you to Bianjing and give you a marquis of resistance and let you see beautiful women every day, but don't learn to write lyrics from Li Yu, otherwise I will give you good wine like Taizong!
Wanyan Zongpan laughed and pretended that he couldn't hear the emperor's words and said, "Thank you, the emperor."
“What else is required?”
"No...no!"
"You must not be polite to me, everyone will be your own people in the future!"
Wanyan Zongpan was really roaring in his heart, but there was a tired smile on his face: "Thank you for your trust."
After the talk with Wanyan Zongpan, Zhao Huan asked Liu Yanzong to arrange it and personally entertain Wanyan Zongpan, which gave him enough face. His disappointed and angry little heart was slightly relieved, so that he would not start to rebel against Song emotionally after returning.
In fact, for Wanyan Zongpan, Zhao Huan promised him to open up trade with the Jin Dynasty. This alone was enough for him to get a big book in the Jin Dynasty court.
The great Song Dynasty was filled with treasures, and the prosperous Jin people could not imagine that the people in these bitter and cold places in the north dreamed of going to Bianjing, Hangzhou, and Han people like Chengdu and Jiangling to enjoy life.
The north is really scarce, and every winter, they can only go south to grab it.
Once the Song Dynasty opened trade with the Jin Dynasty, it means that the marten, game and other specialties in the north can be sold to the south, and the people in the north can also freely buy silk, ceramics, handicrafts, food and other things from the south.
When the nobles and nobles in the Jin Kingdom heard this news, they would probably wake up laughing even when they sleep.
Wanyan Zongpan is an authentic Jurchen. He also has a deep-rooted idea of going south to plunder in autumn. Plunder is simpler than doing business, and the effect is obvious.
However, his biggest competitor in the court has become a pro-war faction, a plunder faction. If he wants to gain a foothold and ascend the throne, he can only oppose the pro-war faction, and thus becomes a pro-political faction. This is the result of politics, not due to Wanyan Zongpan's own personality.
Zhao Huan had a very deep understanding of this. In order to become emperor, Wanyan Zongpan would definitely try his best to do all kinds of ways. In order to allow his son to inherit his throne, Wanyan Sheng would naturally be biased towards his son.
Therefore, Zhao Huan was not worried that he would become hostile to Song after scaring Wanyan Zongpan and go back to the main battle.
In many cases, the political landscape will not change with the personal will. Wanyan Zongpan will only take the most favorable side to him.
After entertaining Wanyan Zongpan, a grand ceremony was held the next day. Wanyan Zongpan signed the treaty, known in history as the Taiyuan Alliance.
