Chapter six hundred and fortieth estrangement

Two days later, Li Yu held a banquet in the palace in honor of Cheng Dexuan and another deputy envoy Kong Chenggong of the Song envoy. The Tang ministers who accompanied them were Wei Cen, Chen Jue, You Jianyan, as well as Pan You, Li Ping, Zhang Bo and Tian.

Lin, Gu Yi and others were all from the Song Party and the New Party, and there was no one named Sun Party.

Ministers such as Han Xizai, Xu Xuan, Gao Yue, etc., who have been very highly regarded in recent months and are very popular, were not invited to the banquet. This is a signal released by Li Yu, indicating that Li Yu's attitude is to support the peace negotiation and not to

They fought hard to the end with the Song Dynasty.

Such compromise is because Li Yu does not have the courage to fight decisively, the courage and courage.

He would rather accept some treaties that were humiliating and humiliating the country, as long as he could maintain the country left by his ancestors. After all, his father lost the fourteen states in Jiangbei and gave them to the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Now forced by the same situation, he feels that he

I tried my best, so I didn’t feel too much guilt.

No one is in a strong position, so we can only accept the facts without any pointless resistance.

At the banquet, drinks were flowing and the atmosphere was harmonious.

In the past few days, the peace talks have been almost completed. Li Yu basically agreed to the terms of the contract and sent Su Chen to the north, but hoped that the Song Dynasty would treat him well.

At the banquet, Cheng Dexuan suggested: "The official family, since both parties have no objections to the terms of the contract, should we transfer Su Chen from the Runzhou front line back to Jinling City so that he can tidy up, and then take his family with me?"

Let the envoys go north together."

After Li Yu heard this, he also felt that the Song envoy's request was not excessive. After everything was discussed, it was time to recall Su Chen and let him accept it.

I gave him a reward to persuade Su Chen not to cause trouble and to comply with the court's arrangements. It was meant to appease him on the surface. At the same time, it was for the benefit of scholars. After all, Su Chen's talents and knowledge were all over the world. Currently, his poems, articles, and martial arts were spread all over the world.

, it was a bit humiliating to hand over such a great talent to the enemy country in exchange for a truce, so Li Yu planned to be gentler, reward him, and do a good job on the surface.

Li Yu nodded and said, "Yes, the imperial court will issue an edict tomorrow to recall Su Chen and ask him to return to Jinling City to meet Master Cheng.

Cheng Dexuan nodded and said: "That's very good, haha."

On this mission, Cheng Dexuan had completed the task assigned by Song Dynasty official Zhao Kuangyin. The next step was to test Su Chen secretly. He conveyed Zhao Guangyi's intention. If Su Chen refused to obey and had no intention of surrendering to Zhao Guangyi, he would have to find a way to get rid of Su Chen.

, blaming the party struggle in Tang State.

At this time, Wei Cen raised his cup and said with a smile: "Let us raise a toast to celebrate the cessation of war between the Tang and Song Dynasties, the restoration of friendly relations, and no more wars, so that the people of the two countries can live and work in peace and contentment!"

The people of the Song Party forced their faces to smile, shaved their beards, groveled and showed no integrity. Pan You and Li Ping all had sneers and contempt on their faces.

However, Pan You and others did not object, because the Sun Party had obviously been removed from the center of power and was no longer favored. After the peace negotiation, the Song Party members did these things that were humiliating the country and the new party could take advantage of this.

, initiated the Qing emperor's side and used the pressure of public opinion to force Wei Cen and others to resign from the imperial court.

By that time, only the New Party and the other dominant parties will be left in the DPRK and can carry out reforms. In the end, the people who will benefit are the officials of the New Party, this group of Jiangnan local reformers.

Both Song Dang and Sun Dang were people from the north who came from the north, or people from the Jianghuai River, not real people from the south of the Yangtze River.

Most of the people from the New Party are from Jiangxi, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and other places and are local officials. They are not willing to let these officials from the north continue to divide so much power in the court. It is time for the New Party to rise.

They want to implement new reforms and make changes to strengthen themselves.

Therefore, Pan You and others did not organize the Song Party. Instead, they secretly added fuel to the flames and promoted this matter, waiting for the armistice to counterattack these old traitors of the Song Party.

.........

After the banquet, Li Yu came to Fengyi Palace drunkenly to visit the Queen of Zhou Dynasty.

At present, after half a year of conditioning, Zhou Ehuang has basically recovered, and his face is much rosier. He is occasionally moisturized by Li Yu, and his face gradually becomes more radiant.

But in the past few days, the Queen of Zhou Dynasty has been angry with Li Yu because she learned about the situation in the court and felt disdainful that the court wanted to send Su Chen away because Su Chen made great contributions to the court and saved the lives of the queen and the prince.

As a result, in the end, a generation of loyal ministers and talented people were sent away as bargaining chips in the transaction. The court was too unkind and unjust. This approach really chilled the people of the world.

The Queen of the Zhou Dynasty even had a quarrel with Li Yu over this. Tonight, Li Yu was in a state of confusion after drinking, and planned to go to the Queen of the Zhou Dynasty to vent his feelings in a gentle manner, and received the warm service of the Queen of the Zhou Dynasty.

But as soon as they met, Zhou Hou brought up the old matter again and said: "Guan family, I heard that the peace talks have been decided. Do you really want to send Su Chen away? I feel that this is really inappropriate."

Li Yu shook his head after hearing this and sighed: "I can't help myself. The country is in danger. As a minister of the Tang Dynasty, Su Chen has the opportunity to contribute to the tranquility of Jiangnan. This is his blessing and his achievement.

The people in Jiangnan and the imperial court will remember him. Besides, even if she goes to the Song Dynasty, she might be valued for her talent and learning, and she will develop more than if she stayed in Jiangnan. For him, it may not be a bad thing."

"But he is from the south of the Yangtze River. All his connections are in the Tang Dynasty. He went to the Song Dynasty and lived under the shelter of others. He was not familiar with the place and was a victim. How can he feel better?" Zhou Hou said with a few words.

Feeling sad and guilty, he questioned Li Yu.

"This is a major matter for the imperial court. You, the women in the harem, should not get involved too much." Li Yu listened with some relief.

The Queen of Zhou looked at Li Yu with a look of disappointment, and sighed: "Guan Jia, if you do this, how will Xuan'er and I face this savior."

Li Yu was indifferent and continued: "That is just a small favor of yours. Saving the country is a great favor. Sending Su Chen will save the lives of many people and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. As a minister of the Tang Dynasty, he should pay for the country!"

"You, are you still the official I know?" The Queen of the Zhou Dynasty used to admire her husband very much. He was talented in poetry, loyal and benevolent, and he was also the king of a country. In the land of Jiangnan, who could be more outstanding than Li Yu?

However, in the past year, after Zhou Hou got to know Su Chen, he found that Li Yu could not compare with Su Chen in many aspects. Now, he must send his benefactor away ruthlessly and coldly, repay kindness with hatred, and repay kindness with hatred. His character is really impressive.

incredible.

Da Zhouhou had a look of disappointment on his face and tears in his eyes. He turned his head away and refused to talk to him.

Li Yu seemed to notice that the queen's face had turned cold, and he was angry, and said coldly: "Why, are you reluctant to let me send him away? It seems that his talent exceeds that of your husband, he can tell stories better, and he knows how to please women.

So, you are tempted?"

Da Zhouhou suddenly raised his head, his face full of disbelief, and his eyes seemed to be staring at Li Yu strangely, and said: "What are you talking about? How can you make such a guess and belittle me?"

Li Yu said coldly: "Huh, you know it yourself whether you are tempted or not! I want to hand over Su Chen. I have made up my mind, so there is no need to persuade me anymore. As a queen, you still have to pay attention to your reputation and don't do anything arrogant."

It’s all about etiquette.”

After being slandered and wronged like this, Zhou Hou was so angry that his body was trembling, his face turned blue, and he pointed outside: "Get out!"

Li Yu's face was also very gloomy, and he left angrily. When he was going out, he happened to meet Zhou Jiamin and Yongning coming over.

The two daughters also heard about the theme of the dinner, and came over to persuade Li Yu with the Queen of Zhou. When they met, Zhou Jiamin asked directly: "Brother-in-law, do you really want to hand over Su Chen to the Song Dynasty? He saved his life."

Queen and prince, how can you be so heartless?"

Princess Yongning also said: "Brother Emperor, this is wrong, please think again!"

Li Yu was furious and didn't look kindly on the two girls. He shouted: "What do you know? This is a national matter. Don't talk too much. Otherwise, I will not be lenient!"

After a few words of scolding, Li Yu left Fengyi Palace.

Zhou Jiamin and Princess Yongning looked at Li Yu's figure leaving blankly, and both felt a strange feeling.
