"The lower official will immediately present another picture of beauty, which is Cui Yunu in Jiaofang. The lower official will dispose of the picture of Li Shishi himself."
Gao Qiu smiled: "It's all trivial matters, your brother-in-law, this time tell him not to give up halfway"
After finishing speaking, Gao Qiu supported the jade belt and left on his own.
It turned out that the reason why Zhang Luo and Brother Huzi were blocked by Liang Ba and his students on the street yesterday was all instigated by Gao Li behind the scenes. The purpose was to violently beat the hostages that Jurchen gave to Da Song before the arrival of the Jurchen mission, and disturb Huang's purchase of Youyun Qizhou.
Zhang Bangchang naturally hurriedly ordered his family members to go to Liang Balang on horseback, go to Jinshilou, and disturb today's negotiations between the imperial court and the Jurchen:
"Go talk to Yuna Liangba, this time the Jurchen envoy must go away, it can't be like yesterday!"
Therefore, when Zhang Luo followed the sedan chair of Tong Guan and other ministers to Jinshitai on Yujie, the closest to Taixue and Guozijian, the street was already full of people.
A large number of young students, as well as middle-aged and elderly students who have been learning but failed, and all kinds of spectators blocked the fork leading to Jinshitai.
"Great power eunuch, if you can't defeat the Liao Kingdom and occupy our land in the Song Dynasty, you will bribe the golden dog to buy it! Pooh!"
"Now the officials have also denounced Tong Guan as a villain!"
"You can't let someone surnamed Tong lose power and humiliate the country!"
"Young lady! Old lady! Old lady!"
Although there were guards clearing the way, several Tai students rushed to Tong Guan's convoy. One person almost put his hand into Zhang Luo's sedan chair.
"A child's body is wronged by the country! A child's body is wronged by the country!"
Zhang Luo suddenly heard a familiar voice. She peeked at the voice from the sedan chair curtain, and it turned out to be Liang Balang wearing a white fur coat, leading a dozen young people, holding a cloth banner, screaming hoarsely.
The cloth flag fluttered in the wind, and almost touched Zhang Luo's face several times.
She saw that there was a big book "Return my rivers and mountains" on it, and it was all embroidered, which shows that it was not a day's work.
The Jurchen envoy also passed the vermilion railing from the upstairs of Jinshi Terrace, looking down at the commotion.
"It's that Liang Ba from yesterday again!" Gesmei frowned and looked at the shouting students downstairs:
"Sixth prince, the Kaifeng government didn't deal with this mangy at all!"
Wanyan Zongjun turned his earrings: "It's just right, let's see how these Song people bargain with us."
Waiting for Tong Guan to lead a group of people up to the second floor of Jinshitai, which was built with double-eave bluestone bricks, Zhang Luo also followed the officials and saluted the Jurchen mission.
Tong Guan brought a total of eight people. Except for Zhang Luo, the other seven are middle-aged and elderly men in their forties. Except for the last one, who wore a bright red official uniform, the rest were all purple robes. The only difference is that Tong Guan wears a jade belt, while the others wear gold belts.
Everyone sat down opposite the Jurchen delegation, which also consisted of nine people, but Zhang Luo found that there was a chair missing on their side.
It turned out that because she was a woman sent by the palace, Tong Guan arranged for Zhang Luo to stand behind him. It is said that that seat is for the female envoy who is in charge of serving tea. So, of course there is no chair for Zhang Luo.
She saw Wanyan Zongjun showing a sinister smile:
"Accountant Zhang is a weak woman after all, it's too hard to stand up. Go, move her a mat."
As he said that, the last Jurchen took out a high-footed horse tie that he knew at a glance, and placed it in front of Zhang Luo's feet.
Zhang Luo opened it and found that the iron bar at the joint of the horse had been pulled away, making it impossible to sit at all.
Naturally, Tong Guan did not argue, and led a group of people to directly discuss with the Jurchen mission how many years the "tax money" would need to be paid.
"At least ten years." Gusme replied for his master.
"That's" Tong Guan twirled his beard, looked at the officials around him, and nodded in embarrassment: "Ten years is not short."
The Jurchens all raised their faces. Wang Li saw that even her chat friend, Alu, had a serious face.
"My Great Song Dynasty is a country that honors promises and promises, and is willing to make brothers with your country. Although ten years is a long time, but my Jin Song Dynasty is more important, only ten years!"
Having said that, Tong Guan is about to exchange credentials with Wanyan Zongjun.
Zhang Luo was stunned, what kind of bargaining is this? After coming in for a few minutes, everyone didn't even sit on their buttocks and didn't take a sip of tea!
So, she rushed out:
"Wait a minute, my lords, how much is the annual tax payment?"
Wanyan Zongjun stroked the mink tail next to his ear:
&Luo smiled, making Wanyan Zongjuan's heart tremble: "Then how much money will it cost to move these people and animals back? I heard that going from Wuguo City, which is a place in the extreme north, to Qizhou is no more expensive than traveling from Jin Kingdom to Beijing. How much cheaper is it from Bianliang?"
Wanyan Zongjun's face turned green.
"Even so, you can't send us 50,000!"
Just at this moment, there was a commotion downstairs. It turned out that Liang Ba rushed to the gate of Jinshi Building with the Tai students and a group of idlers.
Tong Guan frowned, and asked a courtier next to him: "This Jinshi Tower is an important place for the court, but the commander-in-chief Gao is in charge of security?"
"" The courtier cupped his hands, not daring to say much.
This is a man with gray hair, who still wants to retire quickly, and doesn't want to fall into the vortex of struggle between Gao Lian and Tong Guan.
Then, there was a sudden burst of laughter downstairs.
Tong Guan and Wanyan Zongjun waited to the railing to have a look.
Jin Guozheng's expression changed. He patted the railing and said to Tong Guan:
"Master Tong, my Dajin has equal relations with your country. I came all the way to Bianliang to humiliate me like this? Humiliate Dajin?"
It turned out that there were a few little donkeys at the gate. They were so old and disabled that their ears drooped and their teeth had fallen out.
They also reluctantly rode a dwarf on their backs. They all came in the dress of the mission of the Kingdom of Jin. One is wearing gold earrings, the other is wearing two big gold bracelets made out of glue, the other is wearing two braids, with a bowl on top of his head
Having said that, Wanyan Zongjun hurriedly wanted to lead people downstairs and leave.
The Mediterranean with two braids was not angry. He stood behind and said loudly on purpose:
"That's right! Treating guests like this, what are you saying to us for 50,000 yuan in taxes? At that time, the Liao and Song Dynasties were negotiating peace, and the emperor personally talked with him, but now he sent a woman here. Why don't we go back to Shangjing now! The people of the province humiliated us so much! "
Tong Guan was anxious when he heard this, so he poked one side of his white hair:
"Master Chen, as the official secretary of Honglu Temple in my dynasty, you are in charge of the affairs of the Northwest."
The white-haired one, look at Tong Guan, sweating profusely. He was afraid that Zhang Luo would say it again, so he hurriedly shouted: "My lords, why don't you take a step back, how about one million a year?"
Just as Zhang Luo was about to speak, he was squeezed to the end by several other people brought by Tong Guan.
These people also echoed loudly: "What Mr. Chen said is true! What he said is true! My envoys, how are you doing?"
Wanyan Zongjun stomped his feet. Gusme interjected:
"What I want is 3 million guan per year. In ten years, it will be 30 million guan. It is also the price negotiated before your dynasty. We heard that your country has prepared 20 million yuan to buy Liao calligraphy and paintings. Pass!"
Just as he was talking, Zhang Luo finally squeezed through the gap between the adults:
"Even calligraphy and painting are valuable!"
Seeing that this guy came up again, Alu tugged Yan Zongjun's belt, because he was going to see the dwarf juggling downstairs again.
Wanyan Zongjun shook off Alu, and said angrily:
"Okay, one million is one million. However, pay in cash! If the amount is not enough, I will use a woman to cover it!"
Tong Guan hurriedly bowed to Wanyan Zongjun: "You are welcome to listen."
Then, his two servants rushed up from behind and pushed Zhang Luo to the ground:
"This bold maidservant has caused such disturbance, the old man will report it to the officials and severely punish her."
Nian Xiang is Tong Guan's nickname. Because he and Cai Jing were a pair of political partners working together, and he was an eunuch, he was scorned by the literati at that time as a concubine. Cai Jing is known as the "public minister". (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
