Since the western expedition to exterminate the barbarian department, Li Liangzuo added the Northern Court Protectorate to the Great Xia Kingdom, at the same time, the troops originally stationed in the territory of the Northern Court Protectorate began to withdraw, and the defense of the Northern Court Protectorate was completely handed over to the Northern Court Army led by Li Yi to take over, and the first step of Li Liangzuo's western offensive strategy has been basically completed.
Since the Xia army during the western expedition, the eastern Liaodong region has become turbulent at one time, when after defeating the Liao State, Li Liangzuo canonized the vast Northeast region of thirty-seven vassal states, now more than ten years have passed, the turmoil in the Northeast has basically not stopped, Li Liangzuo has also mediated several times, although there is no big war, but the small war continues, for those small things Li Liangzuo also turned a blind eye, although the thirty-seven vassal states nominally belong to the Great Xia State, but Li Liangzuo can not control them, Therefore, Li Liangzuo was not particularly enthusiastic about the war between the thirty-seven vassal states.
Imperial Garden, Li Liangzuo is holding a fishing rod in the Taiye Pond fishing, the Taiye Pond in the Summer Palace is an originally naturally formed lake expansion, the lake is connected to the Yellow River through the river, so the fish in the pond are not raised but wild, the fish soup stewed by wild river fish is one of Li Liangzuo's favorite dishes, many times Li Liangzuo will even make fish soup himself, as long as there is time Li Liangzuo will come to this Taiye Pond to fish, which is also one of Li Liangzuo's entertainment.
The newly appointed Executive Yuan envoy Zhou Wentai hurriedly walked to the fishing pavilion where Li Liangzuo was, Li Liangzuo heard Zhou Wentai's footsteps and signaled Zhou Wentai to stop moving forward, at this time Li Liangzuo suddenly lifted the fishing rod, a fat crucian carp dehydrated, and the crucian carp that rose in the air was still swaying and trying to get rid of the hook, but the hook hook was very strong and could not break free at all, Li Liangzuo gently pulled the fishing rod, let the crucian carp put in front of him, and then grabbed the fishing rod and took off the hook in the mouth of the crucian carp.
Li Liangzuo grabbed the crucian carp and said with a satisfied smile: "This crucian carp is more than two catties to say the least, it seems that the fish soup has fallen tonight."
Li Liangzuo said as he handed the crucian carp to Xiao Fuzi, and took the handkerchief in Xiao Fuzi's hand and wiped his hands.
After wiping his hands, Li Liangzuo asked Zhou Wentai: "What happened to Zhou Aiqing, why did he come here." ” Zhou Wentai bowed to Li Liangzuo and said, "Your Majesty, the envoy of the Boliao Kingdom has arrived, and I hope to be able to see Your Majesty." ” "Boliao Kingdom," Li Liangzuo said with a questioning face; "Why did Xiao Tzu Rin send someone, when I asked him to attack Goryeo, he didn't carry out what I hadn't asked him to do, and now he dares to send someone to see me."
"Your Majesty, although the King of Boliao did not carry out His Majesty's military orders back then, the King of Boliao is still loyal to His Majesty, and in the past few years, the King of Boliao has come to pay tribute every year, which can be regarded as filial piety."
Zhou Wentai said to Li Liangzuo.
"If it weren't for the fact that he still has some filial piety, I would have sent troops to destroy him a long time ago."
Li Liangzuo snorted coldly and said; "Xiao Tzu Rin sent the envoy Layie, what is the so-called matter, who is the reason?"
Zhou Wentai reported to Li Liangzuo: "It is Xiao Tart-rin's eldest son, Xiao Jinghuan, the son of the Boliao Kingdom, who personally led the delegation here, does Your Majesty want to see them." ” Li Liangzuo thought for a while and said, "Let Xiao Jinghuan come here to see me alone."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Zhou Wentai immediately took the order and left.
After Zhou Wentai left, Li Liangzuo continued to sit here and fish, and soon Zhou Wentai brought Xiao Jinghuan, and the two were blocked by Xiaofuzi from the fishing pavilion, Xiao Jinghuan was not yet twenty years old at this time, more than ten years ago, in the battle of the Liao State that year, Xiao Jinghuan saw Li Liangzuo; At the beginning, Li Liangzuo led the army from the Great Song Dynasty to return to Xijin Mansion, that is, Xijin Mansion had been captured by the Xia army, and Xiao Tzu Rin's family members who stayed in Xi Jin Mansion became prisoners of the Xia army, and it was precisely because Li Liangzuo captured Xiao Tzu Rin's family that Xiao Tzu Rin was forced to surrender, when the partition was completed, Xiao Tart Rin was named the King of Boliao by Li Langzuo, and the family was naturally returned.
This is the second time Xiao Jinghuan has seen Li Liangzuo, and it is also the first time to come to the palace of the Great Xia Kingdom, although the summer palace is very exquisitely built, but the scale is not very large, and it is not even as large as the Liaoyang Palace of the Boliao Kingdom.
Xiao Jinghuan has been keeping his head down since he glanced at Li Liangzuo's silhouette to show respect for Li Liangzuo; Li Liangzuo saw the fish drifting down violently, Li Liangzuo pulled up violently, but unfortunately there was nothing on the hook, even the bait was taken away by the fish below the water, Li Liangzuo said a little angrily: "This rabbit cub is quite slippery, and even the bait is eaten and stunned but not hooked." ” At this time, Xiaofuzi walked to Li Liangzuo's side and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Zhou and Prince Boliao ask to see each other. ” Li Liangzuo beckoned to the two people outside the pavilion and motioned for the two to come in, Xiao Jinghuan came to Li Liangzuo's front and immediately kowtowed and saluted: "Xiao Jinghuan, the son of Boliao, Weichen, greets Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live." ” "Aiqing is flat."
Li Liangzuo said to Xiao Jinghuan with a smile; "I remember when I first met you, you were still a child, but I didn't expect that more than ten years have passed and changed so much, quite like my father's demeanor back then."
"Your Majesty's heroism has not diminished back then, my father has always wanted to come to the summer capital to listen to His Majesty's teachings, but he has been unable to come because of his busy state affairs."
Xiao Jinghuan patted Li Liangzuo on the back.
"It's okay, it's okay," Li Liangzuo said with a smile and a wave of his hand; "What is the so-called matter of the prince coming this time?"
Xiao Jinghuan suddenly knelt down to Li Liangzuo and said, "Weichen is here to ask His Majesty for his father's guilt; Of course, His Majesty had ordered his father to raise troops to attack Goryeo to recover the lost territory north of the Yalu River, but at that time, the strength of the Boliao Kingdom was weak, and there were Jurchens in the north, and they could not confront Goryeo at all, so they had not been able to implement His Majesty's Shengyu, so the father rushed to be very guilty, and now the north of the Boliao Kingdom has set up enough troops, and the father intends to recover the lost territory, so he specially ordered the ministers to come to ask His Majesty for instructions. ” Hearing Xiao Jinghuan's words, Li Liangzuo finally understood, to put it bluntly, Xiao Tart Rin arranged Xiao Jinghuan to tell Li Liangzuo that he was going to send troops to Goryeo, and wanted Li Liangzuo to give him a name; In this way, once the war is unfavorable in the future, Xiao Tzu Rin can also put all the responsibility on Li Liangzuo's shoulder, so that if he wins the battle, all the fruits of victory will belong to the Boliao State, but once there is any problem, it will all be borne by the Great Xia State.
"In this attack on Goryeo, when does the King of Boliao plan to send troops, and how many," Li Liangzuo asked Xiao Jinghuan.
Xiao Jinghuan immediately replied to Li Liangzuo: "Your Majesty, when Weichen came, my father was ready to send troops, as long as His Majesty's holy decree arrived, he could send troops, this time my father gathered a total of 150,000 troops to the east, and with Your Majesty's prestige and support, the Boliao army will be able to win a complete victory." ” Today's plus more is presented, I wish you all a happy May Day:
