Chapter 66 Fat meat delivered to your door

In order to show his sincerity to the Jin people, Zhao Gou ordered that the reception must be at the VIP level. Zaizhi put up lanterns and festoons in the capital hall and made a new decoration. However, when their monarchs and ministers were very busy, Wuling Asimou sent someone to spread the word, saying that his old man would not condescend to come to Dutang to talk to the Jiangnan monarch and Jiangnan officials. To see him, he must go to The inn where he stayed. As soon as this remark came out, Zhao Gou's enthusiasm for surrender and peace was almost extinguished as if a basin of cold water was poured on his head.Isn't this obviously bullying?What Jiangnan monarch!What Jiangnan courtiers!It is a great insult to be named as the leader of a small country, which is clearly a celestial kingdom that inherits Zhengshuo.This tone is clearly the tone that the envoy of the Song Dynasty spoke to Li Yu of the Southern Tang Dynasty two hundred years ago, it is really deceiving!

The imperial court suddenly seemed to be fried! Except for Zhao Gou and Qin Hui who drooped their heads and said nothing, almost all the courtiers cursed. Even Zhao Ding, who has always been known for his gentleness, lost his composure. He trembled and shouted: "Your Majesty, this condition of the Jinren is absolutely unacceptable!" Fortunately, Wuling Asimou's mission was limited by time, and there was a stalemate for two days. He couldn't wear the Southern Song Dynasty's monarchs and ministers, so he had to put on a black face and came to the capital reluctantly.Stepping into the gate, without waiting for others to say hello, he sat down and said displeasedly: "That so-and-so, we don't bring this kind of fun, tell me, what do you mean?" Then he grabbed the tea on the desk and sipped it After taking a big mouthful, he pretended to be the master, and glanced at the prime ministers of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Zhao Ding was angry, put the teacup in his hand on the table, looked up at the ceiling and said, "What do you mean? You have to ask yourself. What is your business all the way to our country?" Wuling Asimou didn't swallow a mouthful of tea, but after hearing Zhao Ding's answer, he spat out all the "poof", became anxious on the spot, and shouted loudly: "Your envoy Wang Lun invited us here. Should be clear." "Wang Lun? This guy Wang Lun doesn't know what he's been up to all day long. God knows what good he brings you here?" Wuling Asimou stiffened his neck, but his tone weakened, and he said, "Of course there is a good business to discuss."

Zhao Ding stared at him motionlessly, and said in a deep voice: "We have just learned the sad news of the death of Emperor Daojun, what good business can you do?!" "This..." Wuling Asimou was at a loss for words. Zhao Ding took the opportunity to ask: "How does your lord plan to divide the boundaries between the two countries?" Wuling Asimou's waist became stiff again, and he said, "The division of the land boundary must be handed over to your lord face to face. Our emperor ordered us not to discuss it with you courtiers. There is nothing to talk about with your courtiers!"

The ministers were so angry that their teeth itched, but there was nothing they could do. No matter how soft and hard Zhao Ding was, Wuling Asimou refused to hand over the letter of credence he brought from the Kingdom of Jin. Sign the letter of credence and set the terms of the peace negotiation. Wuling Asimou walked out of the capital hall, and left a sentence that made everyone furious - "Land is not available, listen to what Dajin has to offer". Another day, Zhao Gou was going to meet Wuling Asmou. Zhao Ding pulled the corner of Zhao Gou's clothes and reminded him, "When Wuling Asmou saw you, he would definitely mention the death of Emperor Daojun. Then you You must control your emotions, don't mourn too much, and show weakness to others."

Ordinarily, Zhao Ding had made it clear enough, but Zhao Gou asked, why?Zhao Ding explained patiently: "Wuling Asimou came here this time, one is not to report a funeral, and the other is not to hang a memorial ceremony. If you cry and cry in front of him, what effect will it have on the negotiation?!" Zhao Gou nodded frequently, even claiming yes. After a while, under the guidance of Wang Lun, Uling Asimou came striding forward.Seeing Zhao Gou was no different from seeing the air. He was "very polite" and looked defiant. Zhao Gou immediately became short of breath, and asked cautiously, "I have sent people to your country to negotiate peace many times, but the Emperor Dajin didn't take it seriously. Why, you guys come here to negotiate peace first instead?"

Wuling Asimou laughed and said, "When a weapon is moved, lives are ruined. Our Emperor Dajin is kind by nature and misses the common people in the world, so he asked me to discuss peace with you face to face." Zhao Gou was stunned for a while, and murmured: "Yes, thanks to the kindness of Emperor Dajin, the coffin of my father's body can be taken care of." Zhao Gou mentioned this matter first, and Zhao Ding stomped his feet anxiously.That's not enough, Zhao Gou was immersed in his own topic, and asked Wuling Asimou sadly: "Are my queen mother and the emperor's elder brother still in good health?" Wipe away the tears", the whole scene couldn't last anymore, all the people present lowered their heads in embarrassment, raised their sleeves to wipe their eyes, and pretended to cry along with them.

The peace talks were finally negotiated in such an atmosphere. The terms are as follows: Uling Asimou got his wish and left with a big laugh.And Zhao Gou also breathed a sigh of relief: "I hope the peace agreement will be concluded soon." In fact, the success of the peace talks this time was mainly due to the private thoughts of Jin Zuo’s Deputy Marshal Talan and others. They believed that “the land and the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty must be able to protect me.” He sent countless gold and silver jewels. From Zhang Bangchang to Liu Yu, from Liu Yu to Zhao Heng's son, from Zhao Heng's son to Zhao Heng himself, from Zhao Heng to Zhao Gou, in the list of puppet emperors that these Jin people intend to cultivate, it is not difficult to see that they have great respect for the emperor. The attitude of the Southern Song Dynasty—I never thought about annexation, what I wanted was colonization and plunder.No wonder later generations sighed and said: Power ministers voluntarily negotiated a peace agreement, why would the Jinlu want Bianzhou!

In July, Zhao Gou couldn't wait to send Wang Lun to Jin Guo to welcome Zhao Ji's coffin and test Jin Guo's attitude towards this negotiation.Needless to say, Jin Guo agreed to sign on it, and sent Zhang Tonggu and Xiao Zhe to accompany Wang Lunnan to formally conclude the treaty on behalf of Jin Guo. The terms of the peace agreement spread all over the country, and the Southern Song Dynasty was full of turmoil. When they heard that the Jin envoy was coming, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Wu Jie and other generals from abroad wrote letters to persuade Zhao Gou to abandon the peace agreement and never sign.

Qin Hui, the agent of the Kingdom of Jin, talked about the necessity and urgency of peace talks in front of Zhao Gou. Qin Hui said: "The peace talks, ministers and bureaucrats have different opinions, each holds two ends, and each is timid. It is not enough to make a big deal. If your majesty is really determined to make peace with the Kingdom of Jin, you can discuss it with me alone. The so-called success If you don’t seek out the public, don’t let the ministers get involved, it’s useless to have too many people.” Zhao Gou slapped his thigh and said, "Of course, I appoint you alone!" He resolutely entrusted the "brilliant mission" of the peace negotiation to Qin Hui with full authority.

Seeing Zhao Gou's straightforwardness, Qin Hui was delighted, and retreated to advance, pretending to say: "I just said that I can discuss with you, and I didn't say that I can bear it all by myself. Your majesty, don't be impulsive, turn around and go first." Think about it for three days, and if you think I can take care of the big things alone, then you can make a decision." Zhao Gou was taken aback, reluctantly agreed, and said, "Okay." Three days later, Qin Hui expected that Zhao Gou's urgency to seek peace was increasing day by day, but he rejected Zhao Gou's appointment again, saying: "I'm afraid it will be inconvenient. I hope that your Majesty will think about it for three more days, and I will report again." Another three days passed. One day, Zhao Gou's appetite was whetted, and Qin Hui accepted the order happily.At this point, Zhao Gou was successfully dealt with, and the government of the Southern Song Dynasty officially embarked on the track set by Qin Hui. Under Qin Hui's suggestion, Zhao Gou suspected that Wang Shu had hindered the peace negotiation and demoted him to Tanzhou.However, Zhao Ding couldn't accept all the contents of the peace talks, and was also dismissed as the prefect of Shaoxing and concurrently served as the ambassador for the pacification of Liangzhe East Road. In this way, the traitorous treaty was cleared away, and only those frontline soldiers who fought bloody for the recovery of their homeland are pitiful!
