Official Zhao Ji raised his big hand, patted Gao Zhang's shoulder gently, and smiled warmly.
"Master, I understand that you have done a very good job. It allows me to stand in this sky boat and overlook the mountains and rivers. I am afraid that what an immortal can see is probably nothing more than this..."
I originally thought that this faint master would continue to be dissatisfied with his desires, but I didn't expect that the other party would be so considerate and understanding.
Gao Zhang was really moved, but also a little confused.
Fortunately, for the next time, Zhao Ji reluctantly looked around in the hanging basket of the Immortal Boat.
Even when the afterglow faded and only the bright moon and stars were left in the sky, he still looked at the sky and the earth with great interest and pointed.
In the end, Gao Zhang reminded Zhao Ji that the fuel tank was almost empty, and Zhao Ji reluctantly agreed with Gao Zhang to send a signal below.
As the lantern held by Gao Zhang swayed back and forth a few times, the people in the Sky Boat began to slowly descend after feeling the boat's general sway.
In this manor of the old Gao family, the official Zhao Ji was sitting peacefully in the house facing Gao Zhang.
Beside him, Yang Jian was still standing respectfully, but on the other side of the official residence.
The dog that Gao Zhang had just named Xiaotian actually followed him in and sat quietly and obediently on his other side.
However, the official Zhao Ji seems to be quite fond of this Chinese pastoral dog, which is very humane.
While chatting with Gao Zhang, he stretched out his big hand from time to time, and the dog stretched out its head in a sensible manner and rubbed its head into the palm of the official Zhao Ji.
Gao Zhang, who has high emotional intelligence, felt a bit toothache when he saw this scene. Nima, why does this dog feel more like a human spirit?
"Xiao Gao, I'll leave this sky boat with you first. There's no need to transport it back to Bianliang, Tokyo."
"As for why, it doesn't matter if I tell you now."
"Do you know that in a few days, the envoys from the Liao Kingdom may arrive in Beijing."
As soon as the Liao Kingdom was mentioned, Gao Zhang could clearly feel that Master Hunjun's originally high-spirited face looked a little sad.
#####
Thinking about it, the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom can be said to be a pair of enemies. The Song Dynasty couldn't win if it wanted to conquer the Liao Kingdom, and the Liao Kingdom couldn't win the Song Dynasty either.
The two sides can only maintain a superficial peace, especially since the Renzong Dynasty, there have been almost no large-scale conflicts between the two countries.
But the problem is that the fact that the two countries are not fighting does not mean that the two sides have really shaken hands and made peace.
You know, the Song Dynasty was in the northwest and had a bloody fight with Xixia.
Whenever he saw Xixia and was about to lose his strength, the Liao Kingdom would jump out and call a timeout coquettishly, trying to sidestep the situation.
When Xixia recovers again, the Liao Kingdom will continue to squat aside and watch.
This kind of war has been going on for many years, and the Song Dynasty was full of obsession with regaining the old land in the northwest.
But the problem is that the Liao Kingdom also knew very well that it really wanted the Song Dynasty to capture Xixia and absorb the benefits gained from occupying Xixia.
I am afraid that the Liao Kingdom will be in danger. Therefore, the Liao Kingdom definitely did not want to see this scene happen.
But this time, the Liao Kingdom sent envoys to Xixia...
Over the years, the Song Dynasty has been pressing forward step by step against Xixia. The famous general Zhong Shidao, a veteran, has made Xixia retreat steadily.
But Xixia can't bear it, what should we do? When asking for off-site assistance, it was Liao Guo who was looking for him.
Yelu Yanxi, the current emperor of the Liao Kingdom, sent an envoy. Although the envoy had just set foot in the border town of the Song Dynasty not long ago.
Naturally, the border towns of the Song Dynasty did not dare to neglect. They were already galloping and sent envoys from the Emperor of Liao Kingdom, intending to persuade Song and Xia to negotiate peace.
He also hoped that the Song State could return the captured Xia territory.
Hearing this, Gao Zhang's whole body was about to explode, and his eyes almost burst into flames. Damn it!
"The Liao country's dog thief is so deceptive. He actually dares to interfere in the military affairs of the Song Dynasty and the Xia Dynasty in a condescending manner."
Seeing the angry look of his beloved disciple Gao Zhang, official Zhao Ji showed a relieved smile.
I am truly worthy of being a young man of the Song Dynasty. Thinking about the officials in the court who heard about the performance of the envoys sent by the Liao Kingdom, many of them expressed disapproval.
However, many people believe that since the Liao Kingdom has sent envoys, the Song Dynasty should carefully consider whether to end the strategy of attacking Xixia.
In addition, in order not to annoy the Liao Kingdom, should we go with the flow and return all the land and fortresses that we have conquered over the years to Xixia in exchange for the favor of the Liao Kingdom?
Although it is still a month or two before the Liao envoys arrive in Beijing.
However, facing the ministers in the court who were intimidated by the news of Liao, Zhao Ji, who is still young and passionate, and also hopes to fulfill his late father Song Shenzong's restoration of the Song Dynasty, is quite dissatisfied.
But the problem is that he is the emperor of the Song Dynasty, but he also needs the support of these ministers to do things.
But today, after seeing the immortal boat built by his beloved disciple Gao Zhang, the Hunjun of the Song Dynasty couldn't help but think of a brand new method.
#####
Gao Zhang stared blankly at the rosy-faced man in front of him, and said that his idea was too bold, and he even fell into evil ways.
Such a strange brain circuit made Gao Zhang want to pick up the big stick to ring the bell and blow it on his head to wake him up.
He actually wanted to use this thing to scare the envoys of the Liao Kingdom, making them feel that the Song Dynasty had won the favor of the gods in heaven.
But after Gao Zhang thought about it, he felt that it was not impossible for such a thing to happen to this faint king.
Historically, when the Jin State attacked Bianliang in Tokyo, he specially sent a group of Taoist priests who were very boastful to go to the city to defend against the Jin State soldiers and horses.
At this moment, Gao Zhang couldn't help but rub his face vigorously with both hands, trying to wake himself up.
"Xiao Gao, what do you think of this idea of becoming a teacher?"
Seeing Hun Jun's expression of eager expectation, Gao Zhang gave his answer without thinking.
"Disciple feels that Master is indeed the destined son of destiny."
"Master's idea is also very much agreed with by my disciples. After all, when the conservatives in the DPRK are the majority, we can only find another way and not take the ordinary way to solve the current danger."
"Conservative? What do you mean by conservative..." With this word, official Zhao Ji seemed to have grasped something.
Gao Zhang could only bite the bullet and give an explanation.
"The conservatives that my disciples refer to specifically refer to factions or individuals who stick to old rules, do not seek reform, and even oppose reforming old things."
"You are indeed my beloved disciple, haha... He is such a conservative, sticking to the rules, not asking for reform, and even opposing reforms. Aren't you referring to those Yuanyou Party members?"
The next moment, Zhao Ji began to spit and angrily talk about the various obstructions to the reform of the Song Dynasty by these people from Yuanyou's old party.
Gao Zhang, who was extremely tired, reminded him in a low voice while his mouth was dry and he was drinking water due to Master Hun Jun's words.
"Master, what about that? How about we talk about the Liao Kingdom first?"
"Ah, this... my teacher almost forgot about the business, let's talk about the Liao Kingdom first..."
Tomorrow I have something to do with my family, and I will start the single-person parenting mode when the weather clears up. An update is a must, but it may be a little unstable.
