Chapter 252: The value of Kou Ji

Views:

Liao Emperor Yelulongxu's voice fell to the ground.

The atmosphere around the two of them seemed a bit solemn.

Kou Ji was scolding his mother in his heart, but there was no strange look on his face. He saluted the Liao Emperor Yelulongxu deeply and said seriously: "Your Majesty, before the foreign minister can answer you, can you answer the foreign minister's question? "

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu was startled, stroked the beard of his chin, smiled and said: "I know you have many doubts in your heart. Since you insist on asking, I will not hide it from you."

"The reason why I value you has nothing to do with your seeing through my plan."

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu took off the big hand stroking his beard, waved it casually, and said boldly: "Since I became the throne, there have been countless things planned. I have also seen many people who can see through my plans. .

I even ran into someone who could fully understand my mind. "

"There are people like this?"

Kou Ji was a little surprised.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu nodded and said: "Yes, how could it not. You Song people have a saying that the Sacred Heart is unpredictable. But even if the Sacred Heart is unpredictable, there are always people who want to speculate.

There are people with extraordinary talents, and they have amazing talents in speculating on the human heart.

As long as they are given enough time, they can clearly touch a person's mind. "

Kou Ji nodded thoughtfully, and continued to ask: "Then how does your Majesty deal with the person who can guess your mind?"

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu picked up the glass of wine on the table, took a sip, and laughed in a low voice: "Naturally killed... this kind of people will only cause unnecessary trouble to me."

Liao Emperor Yelulongxu's eyes fell on Kou Ji, and he said: "So... I never admire a person who can understand my mind, and even a little disgusted."

The implication was that he was telling Kou Ji that Yelu Longxu liked Kou Ji, and it had nothing to do with Kou Ji's ability to guess his mind.

Kou Ji folded his hands on his legs, his brows curled into a ball, and said in confusion: "Then how do you think about the Chinese and foreign ministers?"

"Variety… "

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu did not conceal, but told Kou Ji two words frankly.

Kou Ji was puzzled.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu explained with a smile: "Your grandfather Kou is quasi-human, I know everything. Although he is a little courageous, he is too rigid, too pedantic, and too loyal.

I have paid attention to what he did during the Song Dynasty administration.

My evaluation of him is that he has the talent to govern the world, but he has no ability to govern the world. "

Kou Ji's brows twisted into a word Sichuan.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu laughed and said: "Are you blaming me for evaluating your grandfather? I know that you have filial piety, but in this matter, you can't refute me, nor can you protect your grandfather, because I'm telling the truth.

Your grandfather has a talent for ruling the world. I don’t need to explain this. It’s not difficult to see from the fact that he is now in charge of all the government affairs of the Song State.

Your grandfather is incapable of ruling the world, so I can tell you a lot.

You people in the Song Dynasty always like to confuse world-ruling talent with world-ruling ability.

I always feel that people who have the talent for ruling the world should have the power for ruling the world.

actually not.

This is like the knowledge of a scholar.

Someone can boast and write amazing speeches on governing the country.

This is called a talent for ruling the world.

If he can put his own words into practice.

That's the power to govern the world.

The former is talent learning, the latter is ability.

Only those who are talented and capable can be regarded as good ministers of the world.

Those who are talented but incapable are not considered good ministers of the world.

Your grandfather belongs to the kind who is talented but incapable.

I know, you might not be convinced by what I said.

But this is true.

Your grandfather served as Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty many times, but even Wang Qinruo and Ding Weizhi could not move.

Instead, the humiliated face that was played by others rolled out of Bianliang.

This is his lack of ability.

If he is capable, Wang Qinruo and Ding Wei should get out of Bianliang.

If he has the ability, he should clean up Wang Qinruo and Ding's such treacherous ministers, who are universally recognized, and bring a million troops northward to ask me if he wants to return the sixteen states of Yanyun! "

Kou Ji raised his head and stared at Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu with a look of stunned expression.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu laughed loudly and said, "Do you think this shouldn't be said from the mouth of the Emperor of Liao?"

Kou Ji hesitated, then nodded.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu slapped, patted the seat, and sighed: "I hate you Song Kingdom for not fighting. You Song Kingdom occupies the richest place in this land. There are countless money and food and grass, but you live like a living. It's a mouse.

If I had the money and food of your Song Kingdom, I would definitely be invincible in the world. "

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu stared at Kou Ji and said seriously: "This is the reason why I attacked your Song Kingdom again and again. You Song Guokong guards your money and food, and you don’t want to make progress. I want to take your money and food and let you see. , How much power can these money and food exert."

Kou Ji hesitated and said, "My grandfather is not bad now..."

The Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu's voice was raised by three points again, "That's because of you! That's because of your appearance, so that the court of Song Dynasty and your grandfather have undergone tremendous changes.

This is why I must solicit you. "

Kou Ji was taken aback for a moment.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu said earnestly: "Before you appeared, your grandfather was like a rampant man. Facing Ding Wei and Liu E's control of the imperial court, when my imperial brother was lying on the couch, he dared to enter. To Bianliang, a reckless man who participated in the court power struggle.

If you don't show up, your grandfather can't escape a thousand miles of exile.

After you appeared, you changed everything.

Under your influence, your grandfather went from a reckless man to a powerful and decisive official.

Before you appeared, your Song State was like a quail, a quail shrouded in a shell.

Whether facing my provocation or facing Li Deming's provocation, they are just quails shrunk in their shells to beg for mercy.

After you appeared, let your Song State quail grow sharp pecks and sharp claws.

Just after breaking out of his shell, he bit off a large piece of Li Deming's meat.

When others look at Xixia's war, they only think that you have seen through my plan, and the rest has nothing to do with you.

But I see your shadow everywhere in Xixia's battle. "

Kou Ji pondered: "The reason why there were so many changes in the Song Dynasty has nothing to do with the foreign ministers. It all depends on the efforts of the Manchu civil and military forces."

Upon hearing this, Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu smiled sarcastically: "Just those officials in your Song State Hall? Only two or three people can enter my eyes. The rest..."

"On Yin Poetry and Fu, even if I bring the scholars from all over the Liao Dynasty with me, I can't compare to them. However, I'm just a bunch of idiots when discussing political affairs."

Kou Ji questioned: "There are many similar officials in the Liao Dynasty court..."

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu stared at Kou Ji and laughed in a low voice: "The reason why I keep these straw bags is to attract talents from your Song Dynasty."

Kou Ji was silent when he heard this.

He really has nothing to say.

The same is to raise idlers, Da Song is more and more confused.

However, the more the Liao State is raised, the clearer it becomes.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu stared at Kou Ji and said, "I have answered your question. Now it is time for you to answer my question?"

Kou Ji pondered: "The foreign minister still has doubts..."

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu was taken aback, and said: "No matter, I will solve all the doubts in your heart today. If you have any questions, just speak up."

Kou Ji questioned: "The foreign minister has never understood one thing. When your country and Qingtang attacked Xixia, they formed an alliance secretly. Why did you not see Qingtang take action when your country attacked Xixia

On the contrary, when my Da Song attacked Xixia, Qingtang immediately led the troops to the battlefield. "

When Liao Emperor Yelulong heard the words, the corners of his mouth twitched. Obviously, the question of Kou Ji was something he didn't want to mention in his heart.

However, he did not conceal Kou Ji because of this, but said frankly: "I said I was tricked by Qingtang, do you believe it?"

Kou Ji looked dumbfounded.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu sighed and said: "When I sent troops to attack Xixia, I did form an alliance with Xixia secretly. When my soldiers came to Xixia, but did not see Qingtang doing anything, I sent someone to investigate. Fan.

Unexpectedly, Qingtang gave birth to a civil turmoil at this time.

The soldiers and horses of Siluo at Zanpu Cape of Qingtang cannot leave without permission.

Our soldiers have already reached the border of Xixia. I can't wait for Qingtang Zanpu Cape Siluo to deal with Qingtang's internal affairs before leading troops to attack Xixia with me. "

Kou Ji heard a little helpless from the words of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

Kou Ji felt that if he were from the perspective of the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, he would have made the same choice.

The 500,000 soldiers of the Liao State entered the West, and they had already reached the border of Xixia.

It is impossible to delay the fighter plane by waiting for Qingtang's troops to be dispatched.

After all, whether Xixia discovered the army of the Liao Kingdom or Da Song discovered the army of the Liao Kingdom, they would randomly deploy accordingly.

If the Liao Emperor Yelulongxu was delayed for a moment, the battle situation would be more variable.

So he can't wait.

Moreover, the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu did not know that he would lose. Years of experience in the Southern and Northern Wars told him that the 500,000 army he led was enough to destroy Xixia.

So Qingtang's soldiers and horses are dispensable to him.

Kou Ji nodded slowly, and continued to ask: "Then why did your Majesty choose to join forces with Xixia after losing to Xixia and attack my Dasong together?"

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu glanced at Kou Ji and said faintly: "If I tell you, I just want to give it a try. After I lose to Xixia, you Song Guoguo won't take advantage of it, do you believe it?"

Kou Ji opened his mouth, just about to speak.

Just listen to Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu continue: "I lost to Xixia once, it is not terrible, I can make a comeback at any time. But your Song State is different, once your Song State shows its fangs, it is far more comparable to Xixia.

As far as I am concerned, your Song State is a great concern.

Xixia is just a disease of ringworm and scabies. "

Hearing this, Kou Ji nodded thoughtfully, and asked: "How does your Majesty treat Li Deming?"

"Li Deming? There is a dominant posture, provided that he can survive in the hands of my nephew and my imperial nephew."

"Where is Li Yuanhao?"

"Crazy kid..."

"Where's the Horned Silo?"

"If he is a descendant of my Yelu family, I will not mind passing on the throne to him in a hundred years."

"..."

Kou Ji asked, and Liao Emperor Yelulongxu answered.

Kou Ji asked the heroes of the world, and the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu gave his comments one by one.

The two talked for a long time, quite a bit of a heroic meaning of cooking wine.

"Foreign Minister Xiang Minzhong, met His Majesty the Emperor of Liao..."

When Xiang Minzhong's voice sounded beside them, Kou Ji let out a sigh of relief.

The reason why he chased the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu to ask questions was to drag time.

The Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu's methods were harsh and aggressive.

Forcing him to seek refuge in the Liao Kingdom, he didn't want to agree to the Liao Emperor Yelulongxu, and he didn't want to temporarily become stiff with the Liao Emperor Yelulongxu, so he could only delay it again and again.

After he had finished talking with Xiang Minzhong and Liao Chenhe, he came to help him out.

As for the woman that Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu used to threaten him, he felt that he needed time, and he thought about the countermeasures when he returned.

however.

Kou Ji looked down upon the face of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

When Xiang Minzhong appeared in front of Liao Emperor Yelulongxu, Liao Emperor Yelulongxu did not respond to him, but stared at Kou Ji and said seriously: "I thought you were asking me humbly for advice. I didn't expect you. The kid is actually playing tricks in front of me, dragging time."

Kou Ji originally thought that after Xiang Minzhong arrived, Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu would no longer mention solicitation and other things.

Unexpectedly, Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu even ignored Xiang Minzhong in order to recruit him.

Seeing Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu staring at Kou Ji in a daze, Xiang Minzhong thought for a moment, and accompany his smiling face to the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor of Liao, what if Kou Ji offends you? , The foreign minister is here to take him to accompany you."

"you shut up!"

Xiang Minzhong still wanted to speak, and wanted to help Kou Ji rescue.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu interrupted him in a cold voice.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu didn't even look at Minzhong, but kept his gaze on Kou Ji without even moving.

Seeing this, Xiang Minzhong's expression changed.

After all, the dragon is a dragon and can eat people. He was kind to you in the first moment, and he could swallow you in one bite in the next moment.

This is the dragon...

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu stared at Kou Ji, saying word by word: "Tell me, your answer!"

Kou Ji gritted his teeth and said: "Why should your Majesty be so aggressive? Although foreign ministers can influence the court in the Song Dynasty, they may not be able to achieve much in Liao."

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu said coldly: "You should understand the principle of one and the other. When you arrive in my Daliao, you don't do anything, and I don't care. But as long as you stay in the Song State for a day, the Song State will continue. If you become stronger, we will have one more powerful opponent.

I tried my best to leave you behind, just to make Song State back to the previous Song State. "

Hearing this, Xiang Minzhong looked shocked.

He didn't expect that Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu actually valued Kou Ji so much.

He didn't even expect that the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu would give Kou Ji such an evaluation.

Xiang Minzhong's eyes fell on Kou Ji, wanting to see how Kou Ji answered.

Facing the threat of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, Kou Ji gritted his teeth and said: "Foreign Minister Kou Ji, death will not betray the Song Dynasty!"

"Boom!"

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu raised his hand and patted the dwarf next to him, and slowly stood up.

As he stood up, the short couple holding his palm shattered.
