King of Song

Chapter 224

Recently, the Tubo Li Hotel is very lively!
Due to the birthday of Mrs. Qiao, the mother of Zanpu Dongzhi in Tubo, many people came from all over to celebrate her birthday.

Although Tubo is now divided into many small countries, because of the noble Zanpu bloodlines of Zansiluo and Dong Zhan and his son, the prestige in the entire Tubo plateau is very high.

Many other tribes were willing to surrender to Hehuangqing Tangcheng, and together with Jisiluo's hard work, Hehuang Tubo was powerful, so it had a great influence on all Tubo people, and there were many people from various tribes who came to worship birthday.

There are also many countries in the Western Regions, such as Gaochang, Khotan, and Uighur, who will send people to congratulate Mrs. Qiao on her birthday.The Li Hotel is undoubtedly the most lively place, and there are quite a few people living there.

But the most important of them are undoubtedly the Xixia and Song Dynasty missions!

The status and influence of the Song Dynasty are self-evident. As a great country, Hehuang Tubo is nominally a vassal to the Song Dynasty and is a vassal land.The arrival of the mission from the Shang Dynasty undoubtedly requires special courtesy.

There is also Xixia. Although in name, Xixia is also a courtier and vassal of the Song Dynasty, but in fact no one would think so.Xixia has a strong national power, especially in the northwest, where it has a greater influence.

There were many battles between Xixia and Hehuang Tubo in the past, and Li Yuanhao and Ji Siluo were also old enemies.But there are no permanent enemies or permanent friends in the world, let alone between countries, as long as the interests require it, the relationship can be transformed at any time.

Now the relationship between Tubo and Xixia is relatively relaxed, and this time he came to celebrate Mrs. Qiao's birthday, which is highly valued by the Tubo people.One of the reasons must be the big gift from the Xixia people. Princess Jinshan, the sister of the Xixia king Li Bingchang, wanted to marry Zanpu's son Lin Bubi as his wife and Mrs. Qiao as his granddaughter-in-law.

The second reason is that the status of the Xixia envoy is a heavyweight, and Liang Yibu, the prime minister and uncle of the Xixia Kingdom, came in person.

Liang Yibu may not be 30 years old this year, becoming the uncle of the country, becoming the prime minister of the country is something he never thought of.

In the early years, his sister Liang married the uncle of the country at that time, and the prime minister of the country did not hide Pang's son.Liang Yibu was already very excited to be able to become relatives with the uncle of the country, which means that he can pretend to be a tiger, and he can have many benefits.At that time, Liang Yibu was envious of Wuzang Yuanpang, and occasionally imagined how glorious it would be if he could have such a status!
Sometimes daydreams really do make dreams come true!

Because Li Yuanhao, the lord of Xixia, died suddenly, Yizong Li Liangzuo was not yet one year old when he came to the throne, and he was still a baby in his arms.

Therefore, the power of the government is in the hands of his mother, Empress Wuzang, who has average opinions and abilities, so all important affairs of state affairs are delegated to his elder brother, Wuzang Pang.

After a long time, you will get used to it if you don't hide your mistakes. After all, power is addictive.Although the little emperor Li Liangzuo has grown up, Wuzang Pang still has no intention of returning power. This kind of conflict between the orderly minister and the young heroine is reflected, and it begins to become more and more acute.
If it is said that there is no hidden pang and reason, it would be fine to return the power to Li Liangzuo, but most of the powerful ministers in history did not do this, and no hidden pang is no exception. This kind of person has an extraordinary nostalgia for power .

As a result, the conflict between the monarch and his ministers, nephew and uncle became more and more intense.The little emperor Li Liangzuo wanted to regain his own throne and power, but he did not hide his nephew.

How easy is it for the little emperor Li Liangzuo to seize power?The first one is to keep abreast of unconcealed actions at all times, and to plant your own eyes and ears around him. This is even more difficult for the little emperor who has no foundation.

But Li Liangzuo is very good at thinking of ways, and he actually opened up a breakthrough. This person is the daughter-in-law Liang Shi who has no concealment, that is, Liang Yibu's sister.

Li Liangzuo had an affair with him, and told Liang Shi that as long as he was willing to help him, Liang Shi would be canonized as queen after the matter was completed.This was a huge temptation, and Liang Shi was naturally tempted...

The matter was soon known by Wu Zangyue Pang and his son. Poor Wu Zang didn't feel the shame of wearing a cuckold, but thought it was a good thing.

The daughter-in-law has an affair with the little emperor, so she can keep track of the emperor's whereabouts at any time, and can better control him. No Zang Yepang came up with such an idea.

But he ignored his daughter-in-law's thoughts!Having an affair with Li Liangzuo is already a fait accompli, and now it is because I can use him, so I don't move lightly.If Li Liangzuo falls in the future, and he is useless, can no family tolerate a dishonest daughter-in-law?

If you continue to be loyal to No Tibetan, what awaits you is nothing more than an ordinary life, and it may even be a disaster of death.And helping Li Bingchang can become a respected queen.

Liang is not stupid, she made a very wise choice and seized the opportunity well.

When Wuzang Yepang and his son conspired against the law, the Liang family resolutely reported it. Yizong Li Liangzuo, with the support of General Manbaa and others, killed Yepang and his family, and killed his wife, the Wuzang family, ending the situation of the Wuzang family’s dictatorship .Immediately, Li Liangzuo kept his promise and canonized the Liang family as queen, and Liang Yibu became the uncle of the country.

Although Li Liangzuo wanted to work hard, unfortunately he was a short-lived ghost and died early. His son Li Bingchang was only seven years old.So Empress Dowager Liang came to power, and Liang Yibu became the uncle and prime minister of the country just like Mizang Huopang back then, taking charge of government affairs and pouring power into the government and the public.

This was what Liang Yibu had dreamed of, and it finally came true, although the process was a bit unexpected.But at this point, Liang Yibu realized that this country is not good for the country.To deal with internal political enemies and to handle internal affairs well, one after another is very troublesome.

For example, in the days when they had a bad relationship with the Song Dynasty and closed the market, Xixia people lived a hard life, and Liang Yibu's life was even more difficult.Now that the internal affairs are gradually stabilizing, helping his sister to gain a firm foothold, the diplomatic and military affairs have caused him a lot of trouble.

Although Xixia occupies a large area in the northwest, the situation is actually not very good. There are Song and Liao in the east, and Tubo and Uighur in the west. It can be said that it is a place of four wars, with enemies on all sides.

The relationship with the Liao Kingdom is not bad, mainly because it is an enemy with the Song Dynasty. Every time there is a war with the Song Dynasty, there is always Tubo behind it.Over time, the people of Xixia have been tireless and miserable. If this problem cannot be solved, it will be difficult to make great achievements.

This time they were forced to improve relations with the Song Dynasty, which made the Xixia people feel very aggrieved, but if they want the Song Dynasty to break up and go to war, the premise is that the Tubo people must be dealt with, otherwise everything will be useless!
After learning from the pain, the Xixia people paid a lot of capital, and even took out their princess. Xiangguo Liang Yibu even came to Tubo Qingtang City in person.The degree of attention and the greatness of the handwriting are a little amazing.

But things can't be as smooth as imagined, the attitude of the Tubo people is one aspect.At the same time, the people of the Song Dynasty would not relax, and at the same time they sent a mission, obviously to make trouble, and Liang Yibu was inevitably a little overwhelmed.At the same time, he has been paying close attention to the movements of the Song Dynasty missions and collecting information at any time.

The Han people have a saying that is true, know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles!
"Has the Song Dynasty mission entered the city?" Liang Yibu asked in a deep voice.

The attendant in charge of collecting information replied: "Yes, we have already entered the city."

Liang Yibu asked again: "Have you seen the envoys from the Song Dynasty? Is he really just a young man in his 20s?"

"Yes, very young, indeed only the year of the weak crown!"

"Hmph! What is the emperor of the Song Dynasty planning?" Liang Yibu couldn't help shaking his head slightly, this was the most puzzling part for him.What is the attitude of the Song Dynasty to send a young man to such an important matter?What is the starting point?Did the emperor of the Song Dynasty not take Tubo and Xixia seriously?Or is this young man extraordinary, what extraordinary ability does he have?
Of course, while shocked, Liang Yibu didn't notice that he was only 30 years old...

Liang Yibu asked again, "Did the Tubo people welcome them? What's the situation?"

"The welcome ceremony for the people of the Song Dynasty was very grand. It was a line of welcome. Dong Zhan sent Ali Gu to preside over it, greeted them and sent them to the Li Hotel next door!"

"Ali Gu went to greet him? Isn't it Lin Bubi?" Hearing this, Liang Yibu was a little surprised.

"It's Ali's bone, Lin Bubi never appeared!"

Liang Yibu suddenly laughed, what kind of medicine is sold in Dong Zhan's gourd?What is going on with such an arrangement?

But from this incident, Liang Yibu seemed to see some hope!
This is just the beginning, some things still have to wait until seeing Hehuang Tubo Zanpu Dongzhi before we can have a conclusion.

However, Liang Yibu was very interested in this young envoy from the Song Dynasty, thinking about when he would meet for a while to see what was extraordinary about him!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the Tubo Palace, the conversation between Dong Zhan and his subordinates is still going on!

"Yes, Zanpu, when the envoys of the Song Dynasty passed through Hezhou, they did have a drink with Mu Zheng, the son of blind felt. It is said that Mu Zheng and the envoys of the Song Dynasty were treated very politely and grandly..."

Dong Zhan remained silent, with a faint smile on his lips all the time, this matter is really interesting!This kid Mu Zheng is not bad, maybe Dong Zhan didn't take big brother Bianzhu seriously, but he couldn't help but look at this nephew differently.

What is the reason for the friendship between the envoys of the Song Dynasty and Mu Zheng?Who is more active?Dong felt very curious about this!
Dong felt then asked again: "Did the envoys of the Song Dynasty encounter assassination at the border of Hezhou?"

"It seems to be so, and it is precisely because of this that Qing Yi knotted ghosts and escorted them back. He knows the specific situation if he wants to come!"

Dong felt nodded and said: "Okay, when will Guizhang come over? I haven't seen you for a long time, and I really want to talk to him!"

"Yes!"

At this moment, someone came to report: "Zanpu, General Ali Gu, please see me!"
