Chapter 380 Suspicion

“Your words are wrong!”

Zeng Gongliang came out and said: “The Xia Kingdom sent troops to the plateau, and the plateau is connected to the Great Song Dynasty and Shu Land, so why is it not our great power? On the side of Song's bed? The Xia Kingdom sent troops to the plateau, but they didn't inform the Song Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty didn't send anyone to ask the Xia Kingdom to withdraw their troops."

"What's more, the Song Dynasty sent troops this time only at the request of Hehuang Tubo and had no intention of occupying Hehuang."

"Hehuang Tubo paid tribute to the Song Dynasty every year. Fan, the Song Dynasty is a state of etiquette, there is no reason to attack the vassal state of the Song Dynasty! The worries of the Xia Kingdom are somewhat unfounded."

Zhao Xing, who was at the top, felt a little blushing when he heard Zeng Gongliang's serious nonsense.

Tubo is scattered into many tribes. The land of Hehuang alone is divided into many tribes. It is not even a country, so what kind of vassal country it is.

Speaking of which, the largest tribe in Hehuang and Tubo did send people to pay tribute, but the Song Dynasty did not accept it.

Although the Song Dynasty was bullied by Liao and Xixia, it looked very weak, but it was full of pride in its bones.

For example, the Dali Kingdom submitted letters many times requesting to become a vassal state of the Song Dynasty, but the Song Dynasty was unwilling to agree at first.

Finally, unable to withstand Dali's repeated requests, he agreed.

How could it be possible to accept Hehuang and Tubo.

But there is no way to confirm this kind of thing. If Xixia asks Hehuang Tubo, Hehuang Tubo will happily admit it.

“I wonder who this is?” Liang Yimi asked with a bow to Zeng Gongliang.

“I am the Privy Envoy of the Song Dynasty!” Zeng Gongliang said lightly.

"It turns out it's Privy Envoy Zeng. I'm glad to meet you."

Liang Yimi naturally knew about such a big thing as the change of Privy Envoy in the Song Dynasty.

I complimented him and said: "What Mr. Zeng said is indeed reasonable, but I heard that the Song Dynasty has sent more troops to Hehuang. The border between the Song Dynasty and Hehuang is not far from the border of Daxia. . The Song Dynasty sent so many troops to Qinzhou, which made me, Daxia, worried. I believe that Privy Envoy Zeng and the Song Emperor Everyone can understand it!"

"I can indeed understand it!"

Zhao Xing nodded and said: "But this is not the reason why your envoy asked me to withdraw my troops from the Song Dynasty. Emperor Xia, when the situation in Hehuang calms down, I will naturally withdraw my troops, so he doesn’t have to worry!”

"..."

When the situation in Hehuang calms down, Hehuang may have become the Hehuang of the Song Dynasty.

But Liang Yimi did not insist for some unknown reason, but bowed and said: "The foreign ministers cannot make the decision in this matter. They can only convey the Song Dynasty's intention back to the Xia Kingdom, and your Majesty will Make the decision. So I’m afraid I’ll have to stay in the Song Dynasty for a while.”

“It doesn’t matter.”

Although Zhao Xing didn’t know what Liang Yimi’s intention was, he was the one who delayed it. If you are happy to see him, you immediately ask the minister of Honglu Temple to entertain him well.

"My emperor heard that the eldest princess had given birth to a prince, so he asked his ministers to bring some supplements. He ordered them to be given to the eldest princess in person. Therefore, if the foreign minister wants to see the eldest princess, please allow His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty to agree!" Liang Yimi said.

"This is a small matter, I will let someone arrange it." Zhao Xing nodded.

“Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty!” Liang Yimi bowed to express his thanks.

After the Xixia envoys left, Zhao Xing announced the disbandment of the dynasty.

Then he sent someone to find Han Zhang.

"Your Majesty, what exactly is Xixia's plan?" Zhao Xing asked.

"The purpose of Xixia should be to make the Song Dynasty retreat, but it is hard to say whether it is Liang Yimi's purpose." Han Zhang said.

"Does the Grand Prime Minister mean that Liang Yi has other purposes?"

"That's right!" Han Zhang nodded and said, "Xixia should send envoys from all over the country. I thought that the Song Dynasty would not agree easily, so it stands to reason that it should be argued for. But this Liang Yimi not only did not argue with reason, but seemed to be actively cooperating with the Song Dynasty to delay time. I guess that this person will ask your Majesty alone, and then we will be able to tell what his purpose is."
< br>

Zhao Xing pondered for a while after hearing the words, then nodded slightly and said: "What the Prime Minister said makes sense, but I don't like to be led by others. I want to go to the Prime Minister in person and talk to him alone."
< br>Han Zhang was silent for a while after hearing this, then bowed and said: "Your Majesty is wise, I am here. Go now!"

Seeing that Han Zhang understood what he meant, Zhao Xing smiled slightly and said: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Mr. Liang, just above the main hall, why don’t you continue to fight?”

Back at Honglu Temple, deputy envoy Lu Shanchang asked.

Li Liangzuo sent Liang Yi as an envoy, so he would naturally arrange for his confidants to accompany him.

The deputy envoy Lu Shanchang is Li Liangzuo’s confidant.

Although his surname is Lu, he is from the Dangxiang tribe, not Han.

The Dangxiang tribe relied on DTZ during the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

In the early Tang Dynasty, DTZ took advantage of Li Shimin's internal instability when he launched the Xuanwu Gate Revolution and attacked all the way to Chang'an, forcing Li Shimin to sign the Weishui Alliance.

As a result, he was killed by the vengeful Li Shimin within a few years.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Dangxiang clan immediately surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and their tribal leader was given the surname Li.

The Dangxiang tribe at that time was called honest, and everyone in the tribe was proud to take the Han name.

Although the Dangxiang tribe has become an independent country, the Dangxiang tribe members who use Han surnames still have not given up their Han surnames.

Because in the early Tang Dynasty, only nobles among the Party members had the qualification to use Han surnames, and ordinary Party members did not have that qualification.

It has been passed down to this day, and the Dangxiang people who still use the Han surname today prove that their ancestors were all nobles of the Dangxiang tribe.

The Han surname has become a symbol and glory of their aristocratic status.

"Didn't you see that the Song Dynasty was making excuses for our Daxia's attack on the plateau? The plateau is indeed bordering the Shu land of the Song Dynasty. How do you want me to refute it?" Liang Yimi asked.

“But you shouldn’t give up so easily. His Majesty sent us here to prevent the Song Dynasty from sending more troops to Hehuang. However, the Song Dynasty has already issued an order to increase troops. If we can’t stop it, how can we explain to His Majesty? ?" Lu Shanchang said.

"You also said that the Song Dynasty has issued an order to increase troops. We Han people have a saying called golden words. The Emperor of the Song Dynasty has issued an order and it is impossible to change it overnight. We are late and have no way to stop it. We can only ask Your Majesty Please give me permission. If you have this time to question me, you might as well repair the book and send it back to Daxia, so that your majesty can make a decision." Liang Yimi said calmly.

"Shilang Liang sounds like a Han, could it be that he is yearning for the Song Dynasty? I remember there is an allusion among the Han people about being in Cao's camp and his heart is in Han. Could it be that Shilang Liang is in the summer camp and his heart is in Song?" " Lu Shanchang said sarcastically.

After Li Liangzuo took office, he reused the Han people headed by Liang Guangchuan, which already caused dissatisfaction among the Tangut clan in Xixia.

In the eyes of the Dangxiang people, the Han people are nothing more than slaves.

As a result, a Han became the prime minister of Xixia, with a high position and more power than many party nobles.

Liang Yimi was just a playboy, but he could serve as an envoy.

But he is a descendant of the nobles of the Dangxiang clan, but he can only succumb to them, so naturally he is very unhappy with Liang Yimi.

"If you doubted me, why didn't you speak just now? You had no choice, so you didn't speak, and now you use this excuse to criticize me. If you have the ability to dissuade the Song Dynasty from increasing its troops, come back I will resign when I get to Xia State. I don’t need to be an official. If you don’t have the ability, just shut up!" Liang Yimi said calmly.
