Chapter 178 Want to go to Liaodong

In the hall, there was a dead silence.

The civil and military officials looked at Zhao Hao with confusion on their faces, unable to believe their ears.

Originally, Wang Fu and Cai Jing, the two factions, had offended Zhao Hao because Zhao Hao did not give face, so both sides decided to deal with Zhao Hao well. Wang Fu and Liang Shicheng's faction, even Tong Guan tried his best to stop him, was unable to do so, in order to give Zhao Hao a warning and embarrass him in the court.

But no one expected that Zhao Hao would be "scamd".

He just killed the Jurchen envoy and slapped the Jurchens' face. Now that he is traveling to Liaodong to serve as a mission to the Jin Kingdom, how could the Jurchens give him a good look? This is not only destined to be a difficult task, but he may even be tampered with some trouble on the way and his life is in danger.

According to everyone's ideas, Zhao Hao would definitely refuse. Everyone took the opportunity to take the opportunity to take the blame and requested the officials to demote him to the official position and reduce his title, so that he would be idle, so as to avoid him from chasing his troubles in the court.

Who knew that Zhao Hao really accepted the call. Not only did he accept it, but he also said the domineering "I am the one who is the one who is so imposing and passionate. In contrast, the officials who jumped out to discuss the call were like clowns, extremely ridiculous.

For a moment, not only the officials were stunned, but even the Jurchen envoy showed a look of confusion.

"There are such a very kind person in the southern royal family. Although he is young, he is a man!" Wu Lin replied to Zanmo secretly, and a look of respect appeared on his face.

Zhao Ji, who was in the court, was also stunned and at a loss.

Although he was extremely angry at Zhao Hao's obstruction of the Song-Jin Alliance, he still believed in Lin Lingsu's "protective God". He never expected that Zhao Hao was so fierce and actually agreed on his own initiative, which made him embarrassed.

Xu Churen, Jin Chongyue, Lao Zong and Xiao Chong of the Qing school, and others were extremely angry at the treatment Zhao Hao was suffering, but they were helpless. After all, Zhao Hao had already taken the initiative to agree and could not go back on his word.

As for the other court officials, although they were shocked, they were eager for Zhao Hao to go back.

But what they didn't know was that today they jumped out like clowns. A few years later, a disaster was coming and they regretted it...

In the court, Zhao Ji stared at Zhao Hao in a daze, his eyes were extremely complicated, and he said slowly after a long time: "Since you are so loyal to the country... accurate!"

Wu Lin replied to Zanmo with a long sigh and saluted Zhao Hao respectfully: "I would like to welcome you on behalf of Dajin!"

When the court was dispersed, all officials retreated and left the court in turn.

In the empty hall, only Zhao Hao and others were left.

Jin Chongyue, Xu Churen, Wu Min and the brothers of the Chong family welcomed Zhao Hao: "Young Master..."

Zhao Hao smiled bitterly and said, "You don't have to say much. I'll hold a banquet in Fanlou tonight and then discuss it."

Everyone nodded and after saluting, they also dispersed.

Zhao Hao slowly walked out of the court and rushed to Xuande Gate, but found a figure waiting by the stone bridge in front of him, which was Tong Guan.

Zhao Hao slowed down and walked slowly past Tong Guan.

"If the young master needs help, just give me instructions." Tong Guan whispered.

Zhao Hao didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly, continued to move forward, and walked towards Xuande Gate.

...

Fanlou.

Zhao Hao, Lao Zong, Xiao Zong, Jin Chongyue, Xu Churen, Wu Min and six others gathered in a pavilion to discuss the matter of envoy Jin.

"Young Master may be sick and refuse this matter..." Xu Churen said carefully.

Zhao Hao smiled faintly: "It's just a mission to Liaodong. Even if life and death are at stake, how can I, Zhao Hao, break my trust in the world?"

Everyone was silent for a moment, and the respectful expression in their eyes became stronger and stronger.

In fact, Zhao Hao was sent to Liaodong as an envoy from the Song Dynasty. When he really arrived at Huining Mansion, the Jurchens might make things difficult for Zhao Hao, but it was unlikely that he would be in danger of his life. Wu Lin replied to Zanmo's original intention was not to let Zhao Hao go to Liaodong to die, but to wipe out his face to avenge the murder envoy in the street.

The real danger is in the dark.

From Song to Liaodong, you must pass through the Bohai Sea. There are too many dangers and variables. Real pirates may appear, pirates pretended by Liao or Jin people, and storms may appear. It is very likely that Zhao Hao died inexplicably at the hands of real and fake thieves, or in the storm.

Even if he escaped by chance, this trip to Liaodong would be destined to be a humiliation for Zhao Hao. At that time, the Jurchens would definitely raise prices and make things difficult for him. After all, the Jurchens were unstoppable to defeat Liao, and the Song Dynasty had no trump card for negotiations.

Mr. Zhong pondered for a long time and finally spoke: "I have a plan to reduce the dangers on the way and arrive in Liaodong safely."

Everyone's eyes lit up and they said in unison: "Please come quickly when the old master comes."

Mr. Zhong obviously came prepared. He took out a scroll of sheepskin painting from his sleeve, spread it on the table, and slowly unfolded it. He saw that the mountains, plains, checkpoints, cities, villages, avenues and paths of the Bohai Bay in the northern part of the Song Dynasty were all presented to everyone, and were painted in great detail.

Master Zhong lowered his voice, pointed to the terrain on the sheepskin scroll, and slowly said something.

Everyone pondered for a while and said it was wonderful.

"The old master is indeed meticulous... Please select a hundred elite cavalry from the three imperial guards of the yamen and follow me to Liaodong." Zhao Hao said.

Mr. Zhong frowned slightly and said, "Hundreds of people... may not be enough. After all, this is extremely dangerous."

Zhao Hao said: "The military is about strength, not about quantity. I am forgiving, the three imperial guards of the Imperial Army have indeed become much weaker in recent years, and they still need more rectifications from the old husband..."

Zhong Shidao stopped talking and immediately agreed: "Very good, then select a hundred people from my personal soldiers. Naruda originally followed the young master for more than half a year, and then he was in charge of his command."

Zhao Hao was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him.

The imperial guards in the capital may have extremely weak combat power, but Zhong Shidao's personal soldiers are all elite soldiers of a hundred battles. Their combat power is unquestionable, and they are also commanded by Lu Zhishen.

...

Back in the mansion, Zhao Hao clicked a message to Tong Guan.

"Children's Shouxian."

"Young master... I'm here!"

Tong Guan's respectful voice came from there, and Zhao Hao felt relieved. Although this guy was one of the six thieves, his loyalty to him has not diminished since he surrendered.

Zhao Hao said: "There are two hundred cavalry selected from the Confessional Army and follow me to Liaodong."

Tong Guan was stunned for a moment, then responded: "I will follow the orders of the young master."

"Yang Keshi personally led the army. In addition, Han Laowu must follow him and not make any mistakes!"

"Old slave obeys the order!"

Perhaps, Zhao Hao had already invested a lot of money on this trip... If he could not return safely, the meaning of the retention of these famous generals was nothing more than to make the Southern Song Dynasty suffer more. In the end, it would be inevitable that the shame of Jingkang would be so strong that he would be unable to stop the sorrow of Yashan.

However, for Tong Guan, this time he was willing to give up.

More than 200 Bai Jian soldiers followed Zhao Hao on missions. Wang Fu, Liang Shicheng, Li Bangyan and others could not have known that it would inevitably cause dissatisfaction in the same camp, but Tong Guan no longer cared about it.

Many years later, he deeply felt how wise this choice was.

...

The Jinyiwei Office is also making intensive preparations for this trip to Liaodong.

Zhao Haoling selected fifty people from the other four camps except Qianlong Camp to follow. The Jinyiwei has developed to the present day, with only three thousand people, and the base is too small, and the Jinyiwei is not good at battles in formation, so he only selected fifty masters with force above 60. Although Yuzhe wanted to follow the commander to the death, Zhao Hao refused.

In addition, Zhao Hao gave Qianlong Camp an extremely important task, which was to take the opportunity to spread public opinion, expand influence, resist the pressure of the court, kill Jurchen envoys in the street to avenge the people who died, and to besiege him in the street, and to besiege him to revenge the people who died by the court and Jurchens, and therefore, he was suppressed by the court and the Jurchens, and resolutely rushed to Liaodong to serve as a mission to the Jin Kingdom, and he looked at him as if he was home. He did all the ways to spread it.

There are many capable people in Qianlong Camp, among which there are masters who are good at storytelling. After adding fuel to the fire, the whole story is vivid, making the listener excited and passionate. He also has a strong respect for the protagonists in the story, the son of the Song Dynasty, the eldest son of the Zhengfeng family, the general Zhongwu, the founding prince of the White Horse, and the commander of the Jinyiwei, the commander of the Jinyiwei, the young master of the production capacity of Zhao.

He wanted to become a true hero in the minds of the literati of the Song Dynasty and the people, and a young hero only found in legends, and it was more in line with the aesthetic standards of heroes by the people of the world.

However, a small episode appeared on the arrangements of the commanders of the camps later.

According to Zhao Hao's plan, Zhao Ji, Fang Baihua and Taoist Qingmu stayed in the capital and stayed in the Jinyiwei Office to avoid changes. Wu Song and Liang Hongyu followed him to serve as the Jurchen.

Wu Song and Liang Hongyu's force was the highest among the five people. Since Han Shizhong was in the journey, Zhao Hao wanted to match this famous couple in history, so Liang Hongyu was allowed to accompany him.

The first protest was Zhao Ji. He was originally a general of the Zhao family and had always been loyal to Zhao Hao. Since Zhao Hao traveled through time, he has been following Zhao Hao left and right guards almost inseparable. Every time Zhao Hao traveled, he must have his shadow around him, and there was no shortage. Now Zhao Hao asked him to stay in Bianliang, which made Zhao Ji extremely uncomfortable.

However, Zhao Ji was eventually convinced by Zhao Hao that this loyal and loyal general was a reasonable and righteous person. The Jinyiwei was where Zhao Hao settled in the capital. It was hard to support him by relying solely on Taoist Aoki. He was not only skilled in martial arts, but also extremely meticulous. Zhao Hao would feel much more at ease when he was in Bianliang.

But Fang Baihua was reluctant to give in and firmly asked to accompany her.

"You gave my life. Wherever you go, I will follow you, otherwise you will kill me!"

This is what Fang Baihua said when she drew her sword and put the blade on Zhao Hao's neck.

Zhao Hao finally surrendered.

It’s not because of the cold sword on the neck.

Instead, I saw the determination in Fang Baihua's beautiful eyes and a kind of indescribable feeling.
