Su Yonglin nodded his head without difficulty, nor did Yin Linzhan seem overbearing and unreasonable.
Yin Linzhan expressed his belief in the national credibility of his great empire, China.
Later, Su Yonglin officially announced that he recognized Korea as a vassal state of the Great Empire and officially conferred the title of emperor of the Great Empire. King Li of Korea was officially conferred the title of king, praying that King Tai of Korea would give him ornaments and seals.
Wang Qi and Yin Linzhan expressed their gratitude the next day and bowed down before Su Yonglin in person to show their gratitude to the great imperial minister.
Xixia emissary was the second to arrive.
It is making the country called Degong Xixia take the post of Xing Qing Fu Yin, and the younger brother is obviously a member of the family of officials, and his status is still very high
Xia Guo’s system should be almost the same as that of Jin Guo. There is no separation of military and political affairs like the empire. Yin, the Xingqing government, certainly controls a considerable number of military forces.
Obviously, it is not only to acknowledge the vassal state, but also to respect personal demands.
And this time, it’s not a malicious role to follow the ambassador, Mo Daochong, who has disappeared, and replace him with another Nuo Nuo-only ambassador.
It is estimated that this Li Renxiao doesn’t even have a chance to send someone for help.
Degong obviously has something "important" to discuss with Su Yonglin. After arriving in Zhongdu, he will ask for an audience with Su Yonglin, not formally, but privately. I hope I can talk with Su Yonglin alone.
Meaning is beyond words.
Su Yonglin did not refuse to formally announce his meeting with the Xixia envoys, but arranged a private meeting.
Did Degong bring a gift twice as rich as the last one, or did a lot of cattle, sheep, copper and iron directly hit Su Yonglin’s strike zone? Su Yonglin gave him a lot of smiles.
Degong thought it should be a good thing, so he pretended to congratulate Su Yonglin on declaring himself emperor, and then he quickly turned to the topic and talked about the status quo of Li Renxiao and Xixia government
He tested Su Yonglin’s attitude towards Xixia politics and found that Su Yonglin was not dissatisfied with Xixia politics and did not want to get involved in Xixia affairs. Suddenly, he felt that it was a bit difficult to achieve his goal.
But he didn’t give up
Seeing that the routine test has no effect, I’d better put it straight.
"Although Xia Guozhu calls himself Li and Xia Guozhu, it is very inappropriate for us as officials to call ourselves" I am not a vassal ".
Su Yonglin pretended to be unhappy and frowned.
"Is this serious?"
"This matter is serious!"
De Gong was glad to see Su Yonglin unhappy, so he said, "Xia is a small country. However, the current king has not done it. He always thinks of himself as an emperor. All kinds of actions are arrogant. If you hope that foreign ministers can help you set things right!"
Chapter 614 Su Yonglin decided to help Li Renxiao.
Set things right?
Have to respect already can’t help but want to showdown with Li Renxiao?
This is not a good thing.
Su Yonglin has just established a country here, and there are still a lot of things to deal with. For a while, he can’t spare the energy to deal with things in Xixia. From his point of view, he really hopes that Xixia will maintain its current surface stability.
"Set things right?"
Su Yonglin raised his eyebrows and looked at Gong Gong. "You mean to punish Li Renxiao?"
"If we hope, of course, if we hope to go further, we can also help oust the current country and replace it with a country that is more loyal to our country and big country."
The ultimate idea of the clan was revealed by going to the trouble to see it.
Boy, this is no longer the idea of dividing the country. This is naked to replace it.
Su Yonglin thought for a moment and felt that this was absolutely impossible.
I have to respect a group of people who are ambitious and capable. If they control Xixia, they will certainly be able to integrate Xixia’s military and political affairs and enhance Xixia’s national strength, which is not in Su Yonglin’s interest.
So he decided early on that this matter needed to help the weak Li Renxiao rather than the ambitious clique.
Li Renxiao is old and weak. Although he can make some achievements in administration, it is difficult to expect him to make little achievements in military affairs from Su Yonglin’s point of view.
A Xixia without a strong military force is very consistent with Su Yonglin’s idea.
Putting Li Renxiao in power can stabilize Xixia’s political situation and keep Xixia from falling into chaos. It will not consume too much energy. After Su Yonglin annexed Xixia, he will invest a lot of money to restore Xixia’s production.
Obtaining a relatively stable Xixia without large-scale social and economic damage is also of great benefit to Su Yonglin’s subsequent plan to manage the Western Regions and levy the Western Liao.
Su Yonglin also considered that if they didn’t promise to get respect and others, they would certainly be at a loss, but they would inevitably seek help from the Southern Song Dynasty.
What choice will the Southern Song Dynasty make?
He is still unknown at present.
After careful consideration, Su Yonglin decided to pester him for a while, and when he delayed a little, he struck a respect and observed what he would do.
At the same time, he decided to promote the direct connection between Xixia infiltration and personnel stationed in Li Renxiao to make preparations for subverting Shi.
So Su Yonglin spoke.
"Although Li Renxiao has overstepped his authority, he is still respectful to me and the great powers, and he is not going to the point of deposing other countries. Besides, it is not too ugly to confirm that the vassal countries will depose the country at the beginning of Xia Guo."
Su Yonglin shook his head and said, "No matter how to say, his sin is not enough to oust him. Let’s just reprimand him for ordering him to correct the title of Da Hongwu, and he must not overstep his authority and call me a post-effect."
Su Yonglin said it was reasonable.
This place has just become the sovereign state of others, and then it will be deposed. It’s really not nice to say it.
No matter what, we should give it a chance to turn over a new leaf. If we don’t change it after repeated education, it is more appropriate to punish it severely.
It is fair to say that it is not appropriate to continue to force Su Yonglin to severely punish Li Renxiao at this time, and Su Yonglin will not promise to increase his dissatisfaction with Shi, so he can stop talking about it.
But Su Yonglin’s words haven’t finished yet.
"I’m still glad that you are very honest with me, but you should also know that you are the main minister of Xia Guo. Don’t you still have to say that you can’t just dismiss the Lord unless Xia Guo is ready to rebel?"
Su Yonglin’s remarks gave him a shock.
Only then did he realize that it was right to speak to him respectfully before he left.
Su Yonglin, as a monarch, is bound to have a natural aversion to this kind of thing, so I’m afraid it won’t be easy for them to discuss it with Su Yonglin.
But Degong also noticed the preconditions in Su Yonglin’s discourse-unless Li Renxiao was really ready to rebel.
Degong had a little thought and repeatedly confessed to Su Yonglin.
After that, Su Yonglin took the initiative to ask him something about Western Liao.
"I heard that Yelushi led the army to transfer to the western regions to rebuild the Liao country. I don’t know if it is possible today?"
"Do you really know about Liao?"
"I know something, but not much. There are many Khitans in our department. They are all more concerned about Liao. I will ask smoothly. After all, Xia borders the western regions and knows more things than me."
"So that’s it."
De Gong didn’t think too much and said, "It was said that after the founding of the western regions and the reconstruction of the Liao country, it was said that there were many ministries and troops in a large territory. It is not surprising that the Liao country is now a female emperor."
"The female emperor is in power?"
Su Yonglin was a little curious and asked, "Which woman is the emperor?"
"It was the daughter of Yelushi who finished the first emperor of Liao country quickly, that is, Yelushi was too young when he died, so he made a letter to the female emperor to claim the throne, but I didn’t expect the female emperor to claim the throne directly."
"She wants to be Wu Zetian?"
Su Yonglin smiled. "What can she do? Is the Ministry of Liao stable? Can there be unrest? "
"Well, I know it’s really difficult for your country to ask you to give food to the army, and I don’t want you to give it to me for nothing. I will pay you according to the price and I won’t treat you badly."
