Chapter 485 Acting
As if he could see Zhao Xing's worry, Zeng Gongliang smiled and said: "Your Majesty is worried about the three-party alliance, and Hehuang and Xixia have evil intentions?"
“Not bad!”
Zhao Xing nodded and said: "If the three parties jointly send troops, the Song Dynasty will pose the greatest threat to the Liao Kingdom. Once Hehuang and Xixia fail to contribute, the Song Dynasty will become the main target of the Liao Kingdom."
Although persimmons are easy to pick, if Hehuang and Xixia were just showing off, Yelu Yixin would be happy to cooperate with them and use heavy troops to guard against the Song Dynasty.
Whether Hehuang Xixia wanted to let the Song Dynasty hold back most of the Liao troops, they wanted to take advantage, or they had other plans, it was very detrimental to the Song Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, the division of the three families into Liao is only the most ideal result. In fact, for the Song Dynasty, there are three results pursued by this dispatch of troops. As for which result we want, it depends on the movements of Xixia and Hehuang." Zeng Gongliang smiled. road.
"Which three?"
"The first result is that all three parties are just pretending. Although there is no actual benefit, it can prevent the Liao Kingdom from intervening in the construction of the Great Wall in the north."
"The second one is to take advantage of the Liao Kingdom's vitality that has not been recovered, which greatly weakens the strength of the Liao State."
"And the third is to destroy Liao!"
Zeng Gongliang said: "No matter what result is achieved, it is a good thing for the Song Dynasty."
"Zeng Aiqing still takes a long-term view. I only think about whether I can destroy Liao." Zhao Xing laughed at himself.
"Your Majesty is being humbled. After all, it was Taizu Taizong's last wish to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. Your Majesty just wants to destroy Liao in this way." Zeng Gongliang said with a smile.
"I didn't expect Zeng Aiqing would still shoot."
Zhao Xing smiled and waved his hand and said: "But I really didn't think about it that much. Do you think, Aiqing, the courtiers can agree?"
"There should not be many people in the court who agree to send troops, but as long as Your Majesty is willing to put on a show, it is not difficult to get the princes in the court to agree to send troops."
"What kind of play?"
"Your Majesty, Empress Dowager Xiao and others entered the Song Dynasty and made their identities known with great fanfare. At this time, the envoys of the Liao Kingdom should be on their way."
Zhao Xing pondered for a while and said with a smile: "I understand."
The envoys from the Liao Kingdom came to ask the Song Dynasty to hand over the Empress Dowager Xiao and others.
The so-called acting is not to make friends, but also to make the Liao envoys mistakenly think that the Song Dynasty is going to send troops.
After learning about it, Yelu Yixin will inevitably increase troops to the border.
In this way, the Liao State provoked the first, and the Song Dynasty contacted the Xixia River's side. At the same time, adding troops to the border seemed logical.
...........
Queen Mother Xiao and others were placed in a royal house in the inner city.
It is not appropriate to arrange in Hongzi Temple as her status.
Coming out of the palace yesterday, Empress Dowager Xiao told Xiao Asu that the Emperor of the Song Dynasty had agreed to send troops, but she just had to convince the court officials.
Xiao Ashi thought it should have a result today, but after waiting for a morning, there was no news, and he sent someone out to inquire about the news, and did not inquire about any news.
"Sister, you can't continue to drag like this. Yelu Yixin learns that we are coming to the Great Song, and will definitely send someone to negotiate with the Song Dynasty. Once Yeluyi Xinxin's promise has moved the Song Dynasty, maybe the Great Song will get it. Let's exchange for good "Xiao Ace said.
"Then does eldest brother have any good ideas?" Queen Mother Xiao asked.
"The Song people are greedy. I want to give some gifts to officials in the Song Dynasty. They don't need them to help, as long as they don't stop it." Xiao Ashu said.
"Are you crazy? Because you gave gifts to officials of the Song Dynasty, you angered the Emperor of Song. Let's not talk about what the Emperor of Song would think. Do you think those officials of the Song Dynasty would dare to accept them now?"
"Didn't the Han people say that this time, did the other time? Song Huang promised to send troops, and we were doing this to cooperate with him."
They escaped from Shangjing, and they still brought some gold and silver treasures. Although not many, they were enough to give gifts.
Don't use it at this time, keep those money to do.
Empress Dowager Xiao was about to say something when she heard the voice of a palace maid outside the door.
"Reporting to Empress Dowager Xiao, Your Majesty sent someone to take Empress Dowager Xiao into the palace."
"I know."
The Empress Dowager Xiao returned and whispered: "You go out first, I change clothes, other things, wait for me to enter the palace and ask Song Huang to say."
"Yes!" Xiao Ah quickly bowed and retreated.
Empress Dowager Xiao called in the serving maid and asked the maid to serve her and change into the phoenix robe of the Empress Dowager of Liao.
The Liao Kingdom was influenced by the Han family, and the formal attire of the queen and queen mother was also very heavy.
Except for a grand occasion, it is generally not worn.
Yesterday she arrived in Bianjing and went directly to the palace, wearing only ordinary clothes.
When she left, Zhao Xing mentioned it and asked her to meet next time and put on the right clothes.
Although the court costumes of the Liao Dynasty were influenced by some Han culture, they were not as heavy as the formal clothes of the Song Dynasty Queen Mother.
Wearing positive clothes does not affect walking.
After Queen Mother Xiao changed her clothes, she left the courtyard and got into the carriage.
The carriage drove all the way to the side entrance of the palace and drove directly into the palace.
We stopped at a place not far from Zhao Xing's palace, Yanfu Palace.
"Empress Xiao Xiao, go to the place." Liu Sanshi, who went to the Empress Dowager, bowed.
Mother Xiao came out of the carriage and entered the Yanfu Palace under the leadership of Liu Sanshi.
Liu Sanshi led the Empress Dowager Xiao to the door of the palace all the way, bowing and said, "Empress Xiao, please!"
The Empress Dowager Xiao stepped into the house and bypassed the screen, and saw Zhao Xing lying on the Rohan bed with his head.
When Zhao Xing saw Queen Mother Xiao's dress, his eyes lighted up.
Empress Dowager Xiao wears a golden crown with a golden phoenix carved on it and a collar of Liusu.
The style of the clothes and yesterday did not change much, but it was a yellow robe, embroidered with dragon patterns, and stepping on mink boots.
This dress is unlike the graceful and luxuriousness of the Queen of the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Xing suddenly thought of a rumor that most emperors of Liao died earlier than their queens.
Therefore, the Queen Mother of the Liao Kingdom often listened to politics behind the curtain, and even worshiped Wu Zetian.
Therefore, after several changes, the style of the Queen of Liao State became a female dragon robe.
Zhao Xing didn't quite believe it at first, but now he saw it and completely believed it.
In terms of clothing alone, the servants of his official family in the Song Dynasty looked shabby compared to the ones worn by Queen Mother Xiao.
Seeing Zhao Xing staring at her intently, Queen Xiao felt very proud and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is sitting in the world, why does it seem like he has never seen a woman before?"
"Haha."
Zhao Xing came to his senses, stood up and walked towards Queen Mother Xiao.
"I have seen too many beauties, many more beautiful than my sister-in-law, but my identity as sister-in-law is so attractive to me."
During the talk, Zhao Xing walked to the Empress Dowager, reaching out to hold the waist of the queen queen, and he was slightly harder. The two were close to each other.
Zhao Xing raised the other hand, gently rubbed the face of the queen mother, and finally held her chin and kissed her head down.
Wearing formal clothes is very tempting, but it also has disadvantages.
The first is thicker. When you are across the clothes, you don't feel anything.
The biggest disadvantage is that it cannot be torn.
However, Queen Mother Xiao was wearing a positive service, which was very majestic, but could unlock other gameplay.
Zhao Xing was sitting on the bed of Luohan, watching her kneeling, and the queen queen Xiao, who was lowered her head, had a sense of conquest.
...........
"Your Majesty, how is the matter?" Empress Dowager Xiao leaned in Zhao Xing's arms and said lazily.
"Talk at this time, destroy the atmosphere. What is your name?"
"Girl's name?"
Empress Dowager Xiao was stunned and said: "I haven't used it for many years. Your Majesty would have almost forgotten it if you didn't mention it. I think it's called Guanyin."
"Guanyin? Xiao Guanyin? What a good name." Zhao Xing praised.
Queen Mother Xiao held up Zhao Xing's strange hand and said: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother of the Palace Hall of Liaoning, let you practice like this, what do you promise me?"
"What is practice? I see you enjoy it, don't you?"
Zhao Xing turned over, looked at Empress Dowager Xiao condescendingly and said: "It's not certain whether the restoration of the country can be successful. It's better to stay in the palace. I will guarantee you a rich life."
The Empress Dowager Xiao's jade arms around Zhao Xing's neck and laughed: "If the Majesty is willing to set up me, the prince is abolished, and our child is the prince.
After all, His Majesty is physically strong, and I also like it to be tight. ”
There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!
"Stop joking, you know it's impossible."
"Isn't this a joke first?"
Queen Mother Xiao looked up at the corner of Zhao Xing's mouth and smiled: "But the palace is not kidding."
Although she was the queen mother of the Liao Kingdom and had unparalleled power, she might not be able to restore the country, but she was really unsure.
If Zhao Xing is willing to make her his queen and canonize their child as prince, it means that Zhao Xing really likes her, not just her body and identity.
It is not impossible to stay in the Great Song Dynasty.
"Okay, no more joking."
Zhao Xing lay down and said, "I received the news that the envoys of the Liao State have entered the Song Dynasty. In the past few days, they should be able to reach Jingjing. Most of the courtiers are unwilling to send troops. "
"How to cooperate?" Queen Mother Xiao asked.
"Live in the palace for a few days."
"How many days will you stay?"
Empress Dowager Xiao frowned and said: "This is impossible. Do you know how much impact it will have on me once it spreads to the Liao Kingdom?"
She stayed in the palace for a few days, which was equivalent to making the affairs between the two public.
"Didn't you say that the Liao State didn't care about this?"
"Not caring and being upright are two different things." Queen Mother Xiao shook her head.
The Liao Kingdom didn't care about this kind of thing. The former Queen Mother's adoption of a male favorite was not a secret among the upper echelons of the Liao Kingdom.
But the people at the bottom did not know, not to mention that raising was one thing, and it was the same thing.
If Yelu Yixin knew about it and spread the word in the Liao Kingdom that she slept with the Emperor of the Song Dynasty and instigated the Song Dynasty to attack the Liao Kingdom, how could the people of the Liao Kingdom look at her?
"Then there is no way. Most of the courtiers don't agree with the troops."
"Everyone in the Liao Kingdom heard that His Majesty was very powerful after he ascended the throne and killed many officials. His Majesty can decide all matters in the court. Isn't it ridiculous that His Majesty refuses to send troops for this reason now?" Queen Mother Xiao sneered.
"There is no problem with the reason why Bai Guan's opposition. You should also know that the Great Wall built the Great Wall in the north is huge, the treasury is empty, and the troops are weak.
"If this is really the case, why would Your Majesty support sending troops?"
"It is true that the national treasury is empty. If we really want to send troops, we can only raise taxes on the people. It is precisely because of this that I cannot be too tough, otherwise I will lose the support of the people."
Zhao Xing shook his head and said, "You stay in the palace for a few days. When the envoys of the Yelu Yixin faction come, I will pass him away. At that time, Yelu Yixin will think that you will be confused by you and will definitely send troops. In order to prevent it. He will naturally add troops to the border, and then there will be an excuse for sending troops. Out of the palace. "
The Empress Dowager Xiao heard that his eyebrows were locked and stayed in the palace. Yelu Yixin got the news and would definitely use this to break her reputation.
Although the Liao State had some courtiers who had some hearts to the royal family, she could not accept the aid of the accompanying sleep.
But if you do n’t stay, the Great Song side will not send troops in a short time.
The longer you drag, the stronger the strong control of the Liao State. Even if it has the help of the Great Song, it is difficult to recover.
After a long silence, Queen Mother Xiao's hand slid down and grasped Zhao Xing's vitals.
"Your Majesty, have you rested?"
"I don't need to rest at all, I just want you to rest."
Zhao Xing laughed, and the moving music sounded again in the room.
...........
The news that Empress Dowager Xiao stayed in the palace overnight could not be hidden from the civil and military officials of the court.
Although Zhao Xing felt that this was bringing glory to the Song Dynasty and avenging the people on the border who were killed and humiliated by the Liao Kingdom.
But in terms of civil and military officials, it is difficult for them to accept such things.
However, for the sake of Zhao Xing and the Song Dynasty, no one dared to mention the matter.
However, in the next few days, Zhao Xing has never ignored the government, so that the cultural and military officials could no longer sit still.
In some officials, the Empress Dowager Xiao was the kind of woman who was 妲 在, and Zhao Xing had been confused.
After all, there are so many concubines in the harem, and I haven't seen Zhao Xing who ignored the government because of the government.
At most, when the queen gave birth, Zhao Xing ignored government affairs for a few days.
And the Empress Dowager Xiao is the Queen Mother of Liao. What if Zhao Xing is charm, what should I do to return to the country?
Many officials found Han Zhang, asked them to lead the officials, seeks the official family, and persuade them.
But Han Zhang didn't agree, and instead just fell ill and recuperated at home.
While the officials scolded Han Zhang, they persuaded Xianggong Yu, Xianggong Shen and others to take the lead.
Shen Xianggong and Yu Xianggong were full of concerns. In addition, the persuasion of the hundred officials finally agreed.
……
Yeonbok Palace Main Hall
Zhao Xing was lying on the soft couch, while enjoying the big doubles and double feeding, and watching the Queen Mother Xiao dancing, it was very comfortable.
In the past few days, I ignored the government, and became a deserted faint monarch, so that Zhao Xing understood why there were so many faint monarchs in ancient times.
"Your Majesty!"
Sanshui walked to Zhao Xing's side and bowed: "Several princes leading most of the officials in the middle of the dynasty and seeking to meet outside the dangling hall."
"Tell them that I am uncomfortable and need to be raised for a few days, but I don't see it!" Zhao Xing waved his hand.
"Yes!"
Sanshui retreated in response.
Queen Mother Xiao finished her dance, came to sit next to Zhao Xing, and lay down in Zhao Xing's arms.
"Your Majesty, when will Yelu Yixin's people arrive?"
"Are you in a hurry?"
Zhao Xing smiled slightly, groped his way through the loose collar, and said, "I see that you feel quite happy and unwilling to miss Shu these days."
"Hmm~"
Queen Mother Xiao groaned, twisted her body, and was more convenient for Zhao Xing.
"The palace is just worried that His Majesty will not be in the face of the dynasty for many days, and the courtiers should have an opinion." Queen Mother Xiao said.
"Already, now seeking meeting outside." Zhao Xing didn't care.
