In the high autumn season of September, Su Jin went to Xia Guo in person as an envoy, expressing the Song Dynasty's openness to trade and helping the Xia people rebuild their hearts, and invited Ye Lidulan and Li Ningling, the lord of Xia Guo, to meet with the Song Emperor.

For the arrival of Su Jin, the feelings of Xia Guo are contradictory. This person is the chief culprit of the civil strife in Xia. It is thanks to this person that Daxia is now in a difficult situation; but at the same time, he has to Admittedly, it was this person who made Xia Guo Sheji complete, otherwise, under the joint attack of Liao and Song Dynasties, Sheji would have been overthrown already.

Especially the group of people who are in power now, the Empress Dowager Yeli and the lord Li Ningling are naturally the beneficiaries. If Su Jin takes risks and moves around, he is afraid that he will die under the power of the Wuzang family. Zhang Yuan Ren Jingde and the others were also beneficiaries, so from the emotional point of view, they didn't have such a strong hatred for Su Jin.

After the battle between Xia and Liao, in less than half a month, Yelu Zongzhen, the lord of the Liao Kingdom, sent envoys to Xia to express his goodwill to the Xia people. In addition to clarifying that both Xia and Liao were victims of this war, he also deeply analyzed After seeing the behavior of the Song people, Xia Guo should recognize the situation, rebuild the traditional friendship with the Liao Kingdom, and jointly deal with the upcoming attacks of the Song people; On this point, they did not hesitate to take the risk of angering the State of Song, and resolutely transferred the northern army to the south quickly, guarding Youzhou and Huizhou. Although they did not reply to the Liao State in writing, they have already stated their position in action...[

When Su Jin came to send the envoy, Xia State was very nervous. They thought it was the Song people who came to Xingshi to inquire about their crimes. Even if they form an alliance with the Liao people, the two parties may not be the opponents of the Song State. As far as Ye Lidulan is concerned, she even worried that Su Jin came for the secret trade between the two families, because after the war, the Xia Kingdom lost 10,000+ war horses, and Ye Lidulan has ordered the Yeli Tribe to prohibit war horses with Su Ji In exchange for food, in the face of losing her head or starving her stomach, she would obviously choose the latter.I read

But unexpectedly, what Su Jin proposed was what the Xia people dreamed of, opening up trade between the two countries, aiding food at low prices, and even Zhao Zhen wanted to apologize to them in person; it was like a thirsty traveler in the desert suddenly saw a dog Dahu was both overjoyed and worried that it was a mirage. He had suffered a lot from the Song State, and Xia State was suspicious of the Song people from a psychological point of view.

After the Su Jin was settled politely, Xia Guo began to negotiate nervously. The old ministers and upstarts of the DPRK and the Empress Dowager were all asked to express their opinions on this matter. Obviously, there will only be two stalemates in this kind of discussion. No comments.

One is to take Zhang Yuan as the representative group and suggest to seize this opportunity to fully restore the national strength, because although the Xia Kingdom and the Liao people are now trading, they cannot communicate with each other. The value of the trade is not great, and the help to the Xia Kingdom is not obvious; Another group of people believed that the people of the Song Dynasty were acting as a strategy of slowing down the army and adopting a strategy of wooing. Fighting, the so-called gaining wisdom by eating a ditch, can no longer be fooled by the Song Dynasty.

The two opinions were at odds, so that the Queen Mother Yeli could not make a decision. The Queen Mother Yeli had no choice but to come up with a plan. She wanted to have a good talk with Ari and Yeli Dulan who followed Su Jin. Maybe Su Jin would not He would talk to the two girls about important national affairs at the bedside, but the two girls are deeply loved by Su Jin, so they must know all the inside information.just in my reading

The Empress Dowager Yeli kindly invited Su Jin and his party to visit various places of interest in Xingqing Mansion, and sent Zhang Yuan and the old monks to entangle Su Jin while resting in the meditation room of Chengtian Temple, while she quietly talked with Yeli Duanyun and Li in the Zen room. Ari narrates, Xiaozhi uses national principles to move him with family affection, and uses all kinds of tricks to make the two women cry, revealing their true feelings, and finally tells something they know.

Ye Li Duanyun said: "Auntie, my niece knows that Da Xia is on guard against Su Jin, and my niece also feels guilty about it, because what Su Jin did in the previous incidents really hurt my Da Xia. Not small; but for my Yeli tribe, Su Jin is the most benevolent, he has never done anything unfavorable to my Yeli tribe; even a few months ago, when my aunt ordered the suspension of the horse trade, Su Jin also He didn't blame me and my cousin for this matter. On the contrary, he comforted us and said, "This matter is normal. The queen mother's decision is a decision that is beneficial to Xia Guo. From this standpoint, I can understand that the war horse transaction can be terminated, and Su Ji will not." Because of this, other transactions with the Yeli Tribe will be cut off, you can rest assured', Auntie, this is why Su Ji is still secretly delivering food to our Yeli Tribe, if there is a famine in the next year, what will Great Xia become It looks like you should understand."

Ye Lidulan nodded and said: "It's still like a saying, Ai's family just said, I was cheated by the family of the two young girls, and he can be regarded as the son-in-law of our Yeli tribe, so he wouldn't be so heartless. "

Ye Li Duanyun said: "He won't, think about it, for Ari, he was able to take risks and use tricks, and he was almost trapped to death in the palace with us, just based on this, you should trust him Of course, he is from the Song Dynasty, and he holds a high-ranking official position. Guo Guo was very angry when he learned that our Daxia and the Liao people had rebuilt the old relationship. If Su Jin hadn't been able to deal with it, our Daxia would have been overwhelmed by soldiers. It means the maintenance of our wild tribe."

Ye Lidulan was startled and said, "They intend to attack Xia? Are you not afraid of Liao Xia joining forces?"

Ye Li Duanyun said: "I don't understand the war. Perhaps the Song State is not afraid of the alliance between the Great Xia and the Liao State, and you are so sure that the Liao people will send troops to rescue them? The Liao people were newly injured, and they may choose to recover. The vitality is also unknown."

Ye Lidulan nodded and said without saying a word: "So, this time Su Jin came to our Daxia to offer all kinds of preferential conditions, and the additional conditions must be to sever diplomatic relations with the Liao people?"

Ye Li Duanyun shook his head and said: "This niece really doesn't know, although I will ask Su Jin and he will definitely tell me, but I will not ask, the whole Su family will not ask, even Yan Biyun, the eldest wife of the Su family, will never ask Su Jin's official business; but my niece is also a member of the party, and I naturally hope that our party will prosper and live in peace and contentment. From this perspective, my niece believes that it is safer to attach to the Song State than to the Liao people. The Liao people are tigers and wolves. , we can know from his attitude towards the northern Jin people and the Koryo people."

Ye Li Dulan said: "Song people are not? When the late emperor was in power, the Song people and the late emperor fought for several years."

Ye Liduanyun sighed: "Aunt, don't forget, it was because the late emperor was dissatisfied with the status quo and suddenly established himself as emperor. Song people have the best face, as long as they have face, even if they suffer a little loss, it's okay; Before becoming emperor, did Song and Xia have any large-scale conflicts in the past few decades? Moreover, the Song Dynasty also gave money and other things every year, and the border trade was also very active. If the support of the Song people for decades, we How can Daxia have today? I’m afraid it was wiped out by the attack of Tubo and Liao people.”

Ye Lidulan groaned silently. This is the truth. In fact, if it weren't for the support and tolerance of the Song State, Li Yuanhao would not have the strength to challenge the Song people. Go back in time, if Li Yuanhao didn't take that step ten years ago, today's I'm afraid that Daxia has already become filthy rich, so he won't live in fear every day, and he won't be in crisis everywhere, and the people can't even solve their food and clothing.

Ye Lidulan made a decision in her heart. In her hands, Daxia must be stable. After all, Daxia is too barren and does not have the capital to compete for world hegemony.

"Is he treating you well? You two are my noble daughters in Daxia, but you are really wronged to be his concubine." Ye Lidulan finally showed his tender side.

Li Ali smiled and said: "Don't worry, mother, my cousin and I are very happy. The Su family is not as strict as you think. Sister Yan is also a good friend. In the Su family, we each manage a piece of business and are busy. She is very, very respected; in the Su family, there is no such thing as a concubine or concubine, my cousin and I are both wives, and the emperor of the Song Dynasty has also conferred titles, my cousin and I are both five-rank wives." [

Ye Lidulan sighed: "Let's leave Princess Daxia alone, but I'm so happy to have a wife named as an imperial concubine. I really don't know what you guys think."

Ye Li Duanyun said: "We are worthless, it doesn't matter if we are ordered or not, we just like someone, and we are satisfied if we can follow him."

Ye Li Dulan sighed again: "You have all changed. Duan Yun would never say such a thing before. Duan Yun used to be like a little wild horse on the grassland. It seems that Su Jin completely wiped you out. Tamed."
