Chapter 225 Liuhe
Sun Yue looked at Zhao Guangmei, who was riding on the horse curiously, and felt a little fresh. It should be said that she is worthy of the old Zhao family. If it weren't for the slightly trembling legs, hands that were sweating, and the slightly hoarse and trembling sound, she would be a bit heroic.
After the words came, he slowly divided a road from the cavalry in Liugu. A middle-aged man who looked quite majestic slowly walked out, glanced at them with appreciation, and then smiled: "The three kings of the Song Dynasty, and the most handsome Sun Yue, who is unparalleled in the country, have long been admired. The barbarian and foreign countries do not understand etiquette. Please forgive me for any inconsistency. I have worked hard all the way, so please come in and talk about it."
As he said that, the middle-aged man led them in. Along the way, he heard the Tubo cavalry howling, how ugly it was like a wolf. Even neat drums came from the city, and a large group of strangely dressed men and women dancing very ugly dances around the fire in broad daylight.
Maybe they are not despising us, but they are just different ways of treating people. For example, when taking a bath, Sun Yue and Zhao Guangmei thought the women they served were maids, but when they asked, they found out that they were actually wives and daughters of several leaders. They were so scared that they shook their heads. Zhao Guangmei was so scared that she had something wrong.
The Song Dynasty was just a concubine to treat guests, but Tubo used his wife and daughter. This was so warm and hospitable.
After taking a shower and resting for a while, it was time to talk about the serious matter. The leader of Liuhe put down butter tea to entertain guests and invited them to drink it very politely. Sun Yue only took a sip and put it down. Because he was really unable to get used to this thing, Zhao Guangmei actually drank it all in one go, and it was a bit better than Sun Yue's performance.
"Two distinguished guests dared to come to the barbarian land of our foreign countries with a man of a thousand gold coins, with only a hundred guards. I wonder what big things are there to discuss?"
Sun Yue smiled and said, "We have brought trade, prosperity, and peace, and our sincerity in the Song Dynasty. It depends on whether the leader accepts our kindness."
"Trade, prosperity, and peace? Interesting, very interesting, let's hear it in detail?"
Sun Yue said: "Can the great leader recognize the Chinese characters?"
"I recognize it, but I don't understand it."
"This is the consensus reached between the Song Dynasty and the Dingnan Five Prefectures. At this time next year, the Dingnan Five Prefectures will forge cities, the Dingxiang people will become more prosperous and their cooperation with the Song Dynasty will become closer. Please take a look at the leader."
As he said that, Sun Yue handed over the joint documents signed by Li Yixing and printed by the disciples of the Song Dynasty.
The great leader took it solemnly, looked up at them with a serious expression, passed the document down with a complicated expression, and showed it to the other leaders. Although the Tubo in Liuhe was not of high Chinese language, at least several major leaders could understand Chinese characters.
With a bang, a bearded man with a face full of words, with my bad temper, threw the document on the table and said angrily: "What do you mean by Han Prince? Are you showing off your power when you come to Liangzhou?"
The relationship between Tubo and Dangxiang was very poor. After all, there were nomadic peoples, as long as they were neighbors, they would definitely not have a good relationship. According to the plan, Dangxiang would help build cities and roads in the Song Dynasty and carry out large-scale trade. It is conceivable that Dangxiang's strength will at least double within three years, and its relationship with the Song Dynasty will be closer.
Well, I thought about it with my heels and they were about to be in trouble.
The great leader extended his hand and signaled him to be calm and said in a deep voice: "If you are showing off your power, there is no need for the Song Dynasty to join a prince. I dare to ask you, what do you mean by trade, wealth, and peace?"
"It's very simple. Joining it is that the Song Dynasty can agree to the Dangxiang conditions, and I can also agree to Liuhe. If Liuhe wants to cast a city, the Song Dynasty can also provide cement, and trade is the same as Tubo. The ultimate goal of our Song Dynasty is to connect the entire Hexi Corridor. Liangzhou was one of the four Hexi counties in the Western Han Dynasty. It has a unique commercial position. I can exchange it for you or even give it to you for any living supplies needed by the nobles. Isn't this trade and prosperity?"
"Is the wealth obtained by paying tribute?"
"If Liuhe submits to the Song Dynasty and restores the title of Hexi Army as the governor of the Hexi Army, our Song Dynasty is willing to mediate conflicts between Liuhe and Dangxiang. Isn't this peace?"
The fierce-looking leader slammed the table and scolded, "I knew you were not kind and wanted us to be dogs for Da Song? Dreaming! Brother, kill them and fight them."
Sun Yue and Zhao Guangmei smiled and ignored him at all, because among the six commanders, he was the only one who slapped the table, and the rest showed a deep expression of thought. Sun Yue said intimately, there was a way to do this.
The big leader ignored him. The three leaders have always been stupid and fought fiercely, but they have become accustomed to ignoring his opinions in this way. The matter is very obvious now. If they say no, when the Dangxiang people become rich, they will face a catastrophe.
On the one hand, there is wealth and destruction. People with a slightly normal mind know how to choose. As for surrender, it is just a joke. He is not Songtsen Gampo. He really doesn't care about so many famous things, or they are not qualified to do that, and the benefits are important.
The only thing that is worthy is reputation.
"We can trust the Song Dynasty, but we can't trust Li Yixing."
"If the leader is interested in this matter, he can go to Xiazhou to sign an alliance with Li Jiedu at any time. Dangxiang, Tubo and the Song Dynasty will join forces to share the big profits of the Hexi Corridor."
The bearded leader said disdainfully: "Let's go to Xiazhou? Isn't that meat buns beat dogs, and there's no return?"
Zhao Guangmei snorted coldly and said, "So I'm here in person. If Li Yixing dares to make any breach of trust, you can cut off my head. If I die in Xiazhou, not to mention that the trade is ruined, even Dangxiang, I'm afraid I can't stand the thunder of my brother. Why, even a prince, I dare to take risks alone. Are you Tubo people all timid rats?"
"you……"
Sun Yue also smiled and continued, "Big Leader, the lives of my two people are the sincerity of my Song Dynasty. Whether it is wealth or destruction depends entirely on your decision. You all discuss, let's take a break first?"
"Okay, go ahead."
…………
After dinner in the evening, Sun Yue and Zhao Guangmei had a lot of barbecue and returned to the house comfortably, feeling quite proud.
Although there was no clear statement yet, the major leaders of the Liuhe Department at the dinner showed at least one intention, and in the past ten, this matter was done.
If this matter is not sure, Sun Yue will not be able to pull Zhao Guangmei. He believes that as long as the leader of Liuhe Tubo has not grown into his brain, the matter will not run away.
But unfortunately, he did not calculate that among the major commanders of Liuhe Tubo, there was really a person whose muscles grew into his brain.
Just as the two of them were lying lazily on the bed and bragging to each other, the bearded leader they had seen before had drawn out his scimitar.
