The Most Powerful Man in the World

After all, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, who would want to become the king of a subjugated country?

With a gesture, the national book held by Master Doma fell into Chu Yi's hands, opened the national book, Chu Yi glanced at the content of the national book, pondered for a while, and nodded slightly: " Very good, it seems that the lord of your country is very aware of the current affairs, and since this is the case, this king will agree to his conditions."

Perhaps knowing how the army dealt with the former dignitaries after entering the Xixia King City, the Tubo King did not put forward any too harsh requirements in the credentials submitted.

After all, Tubo itself is on the weak side. If they still don't know the form and make random demands, they may be waiting for them with 10,000+ troops from the Song Dynasty.

Although it is said that some of the requirements of the Tubo king are a little higher, in Chu Yi's view, if he can accept the Tubo without bloodshed, the requirements are not unacceptable.

Master Doma became a little nervous when Chu Yi received the national letter. He still knew the content of the national letter. When he came, he was a little worried. If Chu Yi did not agree to the conditions in the national letter. , how is that good.

But now Chu Yi obviously has no objection to the conditions in the national certificate, how can this not let Master Doma breathe a sigh of relief.

I saw Master Doma bowing to Chu Yi and saying: "If the chief executive has no opinion, then you can reply to the lord of my family."

Chu Yi nodded and said: "Go back and tell the lord of your family, that the king has agreed to all the conditions he put forward. I hope he doesn't play any tricks, otherwise..."

A terrifying power spread from Chu Yi. Even though Master Doma was a strong man, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he felt Chu Yi's breath, a feeling like falling into an abyss. .

Master Doma said quickly, "Don't dare!"

In the third year of Shaoxing in the Song Dynasty, Chu Yi led an army of [-] and thousands of officials sent by the imperial court to enter the territory of Tubo.

With the support of Master Doma, the goddess of Tubo, and after receiving the reply from Chu Yi, the ruler of Tubo resolutely dealt with some of the existences in the country that were opposed to surrender.

Now that the top and bottom of Tubo have been thoroughly clarified by the Tubo ruler, there may be some people who resist surrender, but no one dares to stand up against it.

The prefectures fell into the hands of Song Dynasty, and the officials who accompanied Chu Yi into Tubo became the magistrate of a county and the prefect of a prefecture one by one.

Of course, in order to completely occupy Tubo, Chu Yi did not forget to send a letter to Zhao Gou, hoping that Zhao Gou could assign officials as much as possible, place more officials in Tubo, and dispatch [-] troops from among the hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops to be stationed in the prefectures and counties of Tubo. , to assist these officials in managing the place.

The Song Dynasty was famous for its redundant officials, redundant soldiers, and redundant government. Who made the Song Dynasty claim that the Zhao family and the scholar-officials shared the world? In order to appease those scholar-officers, the court did not know how many officials were raised. There is no real power, that is to say, only officials and nobility have no power to manage the government, which is equivalent to the court's white support for a large number of so-called officials.

If Chu Yi and Zhao Gou asked for something else, maybe Zhao Gou might not be able to satisfy it, but Chu Yi asked Zhao Gou to transfer officials, which was not difficult at all.

I don't know how many officials spent their time trying to get a real job. Now that the Song Dynasty has destroyed Dajin, Xixia, and Tubo in one fell swoop, it can be said that the number of officials needed has skyrocketed too much.

In this case, officials who would otherwise have nothing to do have an opportunity to fill the vacancy.

A large number of officials were dispatched by Zhao Gou. At least with the existence of these officials, the Song Dynasty has completed the formal occupation of Tubo and Xixia. As for the future, it will take the imperial court to spend time to integrate them.

The Tubo royal court received the news that Chu Yi led the troops and horses. The Tubo king did not panic, but felt relieved.

Looking around the nobles, compared to before, the number of nobles in the royal court was obviously reduced by about one-third. Needless to say, those missing nobles were all dealt with by the Tubo king who was present.

After all, in the face of the general situation, those nobles who can't see the general situation clearly and are clamoring to die and refuse to surrender are better off dead, otherwise, wouldn't it bring disaster to them?

The lord of Tubo took a deep breath and said, "The frame of King Song's frame is approaching the royal court, everyone, come with me to meet you!"

"As it should be!"

A group of people followed the Tubo country lord out of the royal court. The group rode about two or three miles away when they felt the earth shake slightly, and a cloud of smoke billowed in the distance ahead.

Tens of thousands of troops came overwhelmingly, and the momentum was extremely shocking, but all the people present were not ordinary people, and they were not stunned by tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

Soon the army entered the line of sight, and a leading vanguard stopped about a hundred feet in front of them.

Fang Jie, who was holding the Fang Tianhua halberd in his hand, came on horseback, looked down at the Tubo King and others and said, "Who are you waiting for?"

The lord of Tubo stepped forward and said, "This general, I am the lord of Tubo. I am here to welcome the King of Song."

Fang Jie couldn't help but glance at the Tubo King, and raised his brows: "It turns out that it is the Tubo King, Fang Jie is polite, everyone and wait a moment, until I go to the general manager of Tongbing."

The Tubo king's choice to surrender was obviously very interesting, so Fang Jie didn't mean to look down on the other party. After all, the other party, as the master of a country, can make such a decision, and he is not an ordinary person.

Soon a carriage came slowly. When the carriage stopped, Fang La, the driver, opened the curtain of the carriage, and a figure appeared in the sight of the coming Tubo king and others.

Naturally, the Tubo King and others had never seen Chu Yi, but they had seen Chu Yi's portrait.

After Master Doma met Chu Yi, he drew a portrait of Chu Yi after returning to Tibet, but the portrait is a portrait, which is naturally a little different from the real person.

Therefore, when the Tubo King and others saw Chu Yi walking out of the carriage, they couldn't help showing a bit of surprise on their faces.

Chu Yi was wearing a big cloak, and he was graceful and noble, just like a prince and aristocrat.

Just when the Tubo country lord was slightly lost, Master Doma folded his hands in eleven salutes and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness King Song, His Highness is a thousand years old."

There is a bit of real power in the words of Master Doma, but in the ears of the Tubo king and others, it is like Hong Zhong Dalu, which suddenly makes the Tubo king and others come back to their senses.

"I have seen His Royal Highness King Song."

Yiying people hurriedly saluted Chu Yi, and the Tubo country lord bowed slightly, but Chu Yi took a step forward, held the Tubo country lord, and smiled slightly: "The country lord does not need to bow."

After supporting the Tubo King and leaving enough face for the Tubo King, Chu Yi stretched out his hand and said to the nobles who were bowing down: "Everyone, please get up too, you don't have to bow."

The Tubo King was still a little worried, but now he felt Chu Yi's kindness, he finally let it go, and said with a bit of joy on his face: "I have prepared a banquet in the royal court for His Royal Highness Song to wash away the dust."

Chu Yi and more than a dozen generals went to the royal court with the Tubo king and others, while the army went to set up camp under the leadership of the people arranged by the Tubo king.

In the royal court, Lu Shinang was holding an imperial decree to announce the will of the imperial court to the lord of Tubo and others. In the decree, the lord of Tubo was crowned the king of Changle by the emperor of the Song Dynasty, and the hereditary was authorized to replace him. They have each been awarded titles, and it can be said that everyone present was very satisfied with the award of Song Dynasty.

Of course, no one dared to show it even if they were dissatisfied. Compared with the fate of most of the powerful and powerful people in Xixia, they were able to enjoy the prosperity and wealth. Such a comparison is simply a difference between heaven and earth.

After Lu Shinang read out the imperial decree, the Tubo country lord happily accepted the decree and said, "I will wait for the decree, and thank His Majesty Long En."

Obviously, the Tubo country lord is extremely adaptable, and he immediately assumed his identity, and respectfully accepted the imperial edict.

Everyone was very satisfied with the response of the Tubo country lord. If the Tubo country lord had ulterior motives, even if he didn't have any trouble, it would still be a problem, right?

During the banquet, it was full of joy, and it could be said that the guests and the host enjoyed themselves.

In a quiet room, Chu Yi sat cross-legged, his mind sank into the sea of ​​​​knowledge. The incomparably huge air altar that spanned the sea of ​​​​knowledge. is extraordinary.

"I never wanted Tubo to surrender, but my luck has skyrocketed by more than 2000 million, which is even more than that of Xixia."

Looking at the majestic luck above the altar, Chu Yi was very excited. This is a total of more than [-] million luck. I think he spent a lot of time for thousands of luck, but now, he has it. So much luck.

If it wasn't for the recent consumption of air luck, I'm afraid that the air luck he has has already exceeded [-] million.

In the turbulent mind, Chu Yi couldn't help but have some thoughts of returning, but now that the general trend has been completed, it is a good time to obtain luck.

Not to mention the rest, with this majestic trend, the surrounding countries do not dare to say it depends on rumors, but at least not many countries can withstand a wave of offensive by their army.

That's all a lot of luck. Chu Yi is naturally unwilling to leave like this. After all these years, it's not too late for the last time.

Western Xia and Tubo were destroyed by the Song Dynasty, and with the addition of Dajin, the territory of the Song Dynasty suddenly became incomparably huge. There is a trend far beyond the Han and Tang Dynasties.

On this day, Bianliang City, the prosperous capital of the Great Song Dynasty, was a lively scene. There was no threat from foreign enemies. The general manager Chu Yi was out on an expedition, and good news came to the capital one after another. It can be said that the entire capital was immersed in the prosperity of the Song Dynasty. in the atmosphere.

Chapter 920 Zhao Jiumei's Heart Knot

Several fast horses galloped on the wide official road, and the capital was also the face of Da Song, so the repair of the official road outside the capital was quite good, at least it could accommodate two or three carriages in parallel.

These fast horses are all capable soldiers. At first glance, they are messengers who deliver news, especially these messengers are carrying Ling on their backs, but anyone with a bit of knowledge can see that this is a six-hundred-mile urgent messenger. Although it is a little lower than the [-]-mile rush, it can be imagined that the information transmitted by these messengers is absolutely unusual.

In the face of messengers, even dignitaries and nobles must get out of the way, otherwise they will be held accountable by the court. If this is the case in the past, of course, not many powerful people will care. What about the mere messenger, even if the military plane is delayed, what is it?

But now, fools know what to do and what not to do.

With the killing god Chu Yi, whoever dared to jump out at this time would obviously not want to live.

Several fast horses passed by, and soon entered the capital. The pedestrians on the long street came and went, and many people looked up when they heard the sound of horse hooves.

When I saw those messengers running wild, my eyes lit up.

I only heard a few people saying: "Hey, another messenger has entered the capital. Could it be that there is any good news from the chief executive?"

"A good news came to Beijing a month ago, and the whole country has surrendered in Tubo, and even His Majesty has expeditedly selected a group of officials to take office in Tubo. Could it be that the chief executive has destroyed some country again?"

Listening to the comments of these people in the capital, it seems that the destruction of the country has become a common thing. When the people of the capital heard the news of the destruction of Dajin, they were completely stunned.

However, after experiencing the Great Jin, Xixia, and Tubo, the people of the Song Dynasty have undergone great changes. In their opinion, with Chu Yi present, it seems that the mere power of destroying the country is not that difficult.

No matter how the people guessed, the group of messengers immediately entered the Privy Council.

It was just a cup of tea, and Zong Ze, who was a privy envoy, had already entered the palace to ask for Zhao Gou, the emperor.

In the imperial study, Zhao Gou put down a memorial in his hand, raised his head to look at Zong Ze and said, "Aiqing is here, but is there anything in the Privy Council?"

Zhao Gou knew Zong Ze quite well. If this guy had nothing to do, he would not enter the palace to see him under normal circumstances. It is said that Zong Ze should be handling affairs in the Privy Council at this time, but it is rare. Entering the palace, I think there is something that makes the other party enter the palace.

Zong Ze bowed to Zhao Gou and said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Song makes an urgent report!"

Zhao Gou was shocked when he heard the words, and even his body could not help straightening up. Looking at Zong Ze, he said, "King Song is in a hurry? What's the matter? Come and tell me quickly!"

Zong Ze presented a letter in his hand to Zhao Goudao: "The letter is here, please take a look at your majesty!"

Taking the letter, Zhao Gou opened the letter. When he saw the contents of the letter, his expression changed, with surprises and worries.

I just heard Zhao Gou sigh softly: "It turns out that King Song is preparing to return to the court, and I thought that the situation in Tubo has changed."

Zong Ze, who saw the change in Zhao Gou's expression in his eyes, didn't say anything, but said solemnly: "Your Majesty, this time His Royal Highness the King of Song destroyed the two countries one after another, and opened up territory for my Song Dynasty. The credit is really too great, Your Majesty. Please think about it earlier, when His Royal Highness King Song returns to the court, how should the court reward the army?"

Hearing Zong Ze say this, Zhao Gou couldn't help but look a little distressed. Just as Zong Ze said, Chu Yi went on an expedition to destroy the Western Xia and Tubo countries one after another, and opened up territory for the Song Dynasty. This is a great feat. Even if you open the history scroll, you can't find anyone.

The most important thing is that Chu Yi is already a very high-ranking official. Even if he wants to be sealed, Zhao Gou can't figure out how to seal Chu Yi.

Just like when Chu Yi destroyed Dajin before, it was because of his great merit that he could not be sealed, and finally, under the advice of Li Gang, Zong Ze, Zhang Shuye and others, the reward that should have been sealed by Chu Yi, Turned to the three soldiers.

Zhao Gou really wanted to do this again, but after thinking about it, Zhao Gou hesitated because he didn't know what Chu Yi was thinking. If Chu Yi had no opinion, that's fine. Chu Yi has an opinion, and I am afraid that he will hate Chu Yi.

Raising his head, Zhao Gou's eyes fell on Zong Ze and said, "Aiqing, how do you think I should reward King Song?"

If Zong Ze had any good ideas or suggestions, he would have suggested it to Zhao Gou long ago, so Zong Ze shook his head with a wry smile and said, "I don't know!"

Zhao Gou also knew that it was a bit embarrassing for him to ask Zong Ze, so he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, let me think about it for a while."

Zhao Gou looked at Zong Ze and said, "We will discuss the matter of King Song's class teacher returning to the dynasty, but after Aiqing returns, I might as well communicate with Li Aiqing, Zhang Aiqing and others first, so that they have a preparation in their hearts and strive for Come up with a charter tomorrow."

Zong Ze took the order and said, "The minister follows the order."

After Zong Ze left, Zhao Gou sat there and sighed softly: "Uncle Wang, you heard it too, I really don't know how to reward Chu Yi this time."

As Zhao Gou's voice fell, a figure appeared in the imperial study, it was none other than Zongzheng Zhao Yu.

As a royal powerhouse, Zhao Yu usually guards around the emperor to ensure the safety of the emperor.

Of course, in this case, the emperor will have a lot less privacy, so many emperors will not let the strong ones guard secretly, but Zhao Gou does not have so many scruples.

Zhao Yu walked out and looked at Zhao Gou's sad face and said, "Why is your majesty so worried, as I said earlier, with Chu Yi's strength and ability, if he really If you want to take the world of my Zhao family, no one in this world can stop the other party. So it is said that Your Majesty is free to do everything. If Chu Yi has no intention of my Zhao family world, then His Majesty only needs to give Chu Yi an explanation, then Chu Yi Yi will definitely not have any dissatisfaction, if Chu Yi has the intention to take my Zhao family's world, no matter how many awards His Majesty gives him, it will be of no avail."

Obviously, Zhao Gou, who was in the position of the emperor, did not see clearly as Zhao Yu, who was a bystander. Maybe Zong Ze, Li Gang, and others could see this more or less clearly, but as ministers, some words were true. Unlike Zhao Yu, who is also a clan, he can speak directly to Zhao Gou.

Hearing Zhao Yu say this, Zhao Gou let out a sigh of relief, looked at Zhao Yu and said, "What Uncle Wang taught is that I wrote it down."

In the spring of this year, after spending the entire winter in Tubo, Chu Yi, who had been abroad for more than half a year, finally returned to the DPRK.

When he learned the news of Chu Yi's return to the court, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked.
