Song Gexing

Chapter 259 Four Beauties from Europe

In the early winter of October, negotiators from the three countries gathered in Bianjing. At this time, the western khan of the Black Khanate also sent an envoy to join the eastern khan's envoy for negotiations.

Zhao Fang was very surprised at first. The eastern and western parts of the Black Khanate were at odds with each other. They would often fight against each other when nothing happened. This had not stopped since the partition.

Later, after the secret investigation of the Imperial City Division, he realized that it was because of his fault that the West Khan was under pressure.

The Song army captured the homeland of Khotan so easily that the nobles in the west were frightened, fearing that the Song Dynasty would use troops against them.

Thinking about it, the homeland of Khotan not only borders the east, but also borders the Seljuqs and the west. However, the east has always had contact with the Song Dynasty, but they did not.

The Seljuqs were a powerful empire and had signed commercial relations with the Song Dynasty. Their common interests made the two countries unwilling to have disputes. Making money was the most important thing.

But they had no reason for Song Dynasty to give up the conquest, so after they got the news, they quickly sent people here. The real purpose was not to negotiate, but to please Zhao Fang.

"The Song army must withdraw from Khotan's homeland and support the descendants of Khotan to re-establish the country..."

Liu Liufu, the envoy of the Liao Kingdom, said loudly that he agreed to the Song Dynasty's request for an armistice, but the condition was that Khotan would be restored and the Song army would withdraw from the Western Regions.

Zeng Bu, the deputy envoy in charge of the negotiations, was angry: "It has been 60 years since Khotan was destroyed and the Liao Kingdom sat idly by. Now we, the Song Dynasty, have regained their homeland at the request of the people of Khotan. You are here to act in hindsight. You also grew up reading the books of sages." , You can’t be so shameless and have no bottom line!”

Liu Liufu laughed and said: "Isn't it the words of Confucius to rise and destroy a country in succession to the peerless world? It's not that Daliao doesn't care, it's just beyond the reach of the whip. Could it be that Khotan didn't pay tribute to your Southern Dynasty, so why don't you care?"

Zeng Bu laughed angrily, pointed at him and asked: "Don't you know what happened back then? Li Jiqian violated the law and refused to allow my army to enter the Hexi Corridor. The Liao Kingdom was beyond our reach. If that was the case, how could you invade Heilongjiang this time? Khanate?"

"It's just a matter of one moment and another. At that time, our recruitment department in the northwest of Liao Dynasty had not yet settled down, and the Nianbage tribe was not completely surrendered. How can we help Khotan?"

"You are bullshitting!"

Before Zeng Bu could refute, the envoy Wang Anshi was also angry. He slapped the table and yelled, and then refuted: "The Nianba Ge tribe has been following the Khitan since Taizu Taizu of the Liao Dynasty. How come they have not completely surrendered?"

Liu Liufu would not admit his fault. He gave the strongest answer: "That's because you don't know that since the death of Emperor Taizu, the Liao Kingdom has been unstable in many places. It was not until the late emperor ascended the throne that he took control of the entire Liao Dynasty."

This is telling lies with open eyes, but if you don't know, you can directly block everyone's mouths. This is the internal affairs of the Liao Kingdom, how do you know so clearly.

Even though everyone knows that the most powerful Liao Dynasty was during the Liao Shengzong period, not the Liao Xingzong at all, but people are stunned to say that the Liao Xingzong is more powerful. What can you do?

The proud Liu Liufu saw that everyone had nothing to say, and said with a smile: "We have found Li Yifei, a descendant of the Li family in Khotan, in Daliao. I think the Zhao Guan family is so benevolent, they shouldn't occupy the magpie's nest, right?"

The royal family of Khotan was the Yuchi family, but was given the surname Li by the Tang Dynasty, so both the Song and Liao Dynasties called them the Li family.

Hearing this, Wang Anshi sneered and said, "What a descendant of the Li family, I'm afraid he was found among the Han people in the Liao Kingdom?"

Zeng Bu immediately added: "To say that the Li family still has descendants, I'm afraid it's more likely in Hexi, Gansu and Qinghai provinces in the Song Dynasty. Didn't you just say that the Liao Kingdom's borders were unstable at that time?" Well, how did he get to you through the Nianba Ge tribe?" Liu Liufu laughed loudly and said: "Zeng Zixuan, Zeng Zixuan, you are also well-read in poetry, how could you not know that there is another way for the Li family? Go to my Daliao, the Gaochang Uighurs are allies with them, wouldn't they shelter them and flee to my Daliao?"

It has to be said that Liu Liufu is really eloquent, and he is not the kind who is aimless. Zeng Bu was left speechless.

But Wang Anshi couldn't tolerate him, and suddenly said with a smile: "As for the rise and fall of the country, it will succeed the peerless world. I, the Song Dynasty, are also willing to support the restoration of Khotan, and are even more willing to support the restoration of Gasi. The Liao Dynasty also regards others as belonging to the country. I’m afraid that’s not right, the Nianba Ge tribe’s territory should be returned to others.”

"nonsense!"

At this time, Liu Liufu, who was originally calm and calm, jumped up as if he wanted to be stepped on: "Jigasi has not destroyed the country, so how can it restore the country? Besides, the territory of the Nianbage tribe was not occupied by Daliao. Theirs was left behind by themselves, and the Nianbage Tribe are also members of their tribe, so there is no reason why they should not return it."

Wang Anshi smiled and said: "In this case, the Song Dynasty proposed to merge the Nianbage tribe into Hagasi. This is also a good thing!"

"What a beautiful thing, this matter is extremely ridiculous. I, Daliao, are firmly opposed to it!"

A negotiation broke up unhappily. The two parties did not end there after the talks collapsed. They each reported the news to the court and waited for the next instructions.

Yelu Hongji was shocked when he got the news. He immediately thought of why the Song Dynasty would talk about the Hagas and Nianbage tribe. This was by no means a casual topic.

Zhao Fang is not in a hurry at all. He is very happy these days. In order to curry favor with him, the Great Khan of the Western Black Khanate spent a lot of money to buy four noble women captured from the Byzantine Empire from Khorezmo and gave them to him as dancers. .

This is the first white beauty he has seen in this era. The Seljuk and Black Khanate did not actually have white people, but they were all mixed race.

Even the Arabs and Persians were not pure whites, but many Byzantine nobles were pure Greeks and Italians.

Italians are not actually pure white people. In fact, from the perspective of pure white people, they should have blue eyes and white skin, preferably blond hair.

Italians have more black hair, but Greece has a high proportion of blond hair and blue eyes. At this time, Greece was part of the Byzantine Empire and had not yet been invaded by the Ottomans.

There is not even a shadow of the Ottomans in this era. The Mongols have to turn Central Asia, Western Asia, Eastern and Southern Europe into chaos before they have a chance to come to power.

At this time, the Ottoman Turks were only a small tribe under the jurisdiction of the Seljuk Empire. After the decline of the Seljuk Empire, they were governed by Khorezm.

After Genghis Khan disabled Khwarazmo, they became independent and were canonized as a small lord by the Mongols.

Among the four beauties Zhao Fang received, three belonged to the Greek nation, and three of them belonged to the same family. Only one belonged to Italy, but there was no such country as Italy in this era.

Zhao Fang, who has long had thoughts about Europe, is not only attracted by the beauty of these four women, not to mention that they are tall and tall, which does not conform to oriental aesthetics, but their body odor is great enough.

During this time, Zhao Fang urged them to just take a bath. It was a tradition for Europeans not to like bathing.
