No shortage of walls

This son of Emperor Song is really good at making money. I thought that printing with fine salt was already weird. Soap cream is released again, especially that soap. Bathing and washing hands are so clean. I can’t stop using it. Now I don’t use soap, and it seems that I can’t take a bath anymore. Not clean anymore.

Seeing that his son was so concerned about the people of the court, Emperor Xia agreed to his request and let him take charge. He asked:"Have you ever heard of the folk legend that Donghu deliberately trapped cattle and horses so that my sheep in Daxia could not be sold?" The two of them had discussed it long ago. His Majesty didn't speak, so he couldn't say it himself; His Majesty asked if he didn't know. In order to avoid his misunderstanding and selfish motives, Emperor Xia mentioned it at this time. The Seventh Prince cupped his hands and said,"Your Majesty! In recent days, I have been to the village in Xia Tian to watch the cattle, horses, sheep and grains in people's homes. No one has mentioned it to me."

Emperor Liao's eyes showed approval. He said:"Your Majesty will go check on the affairs of the people, which really makes your father feel relieved."

The seventh prince was overjoyed when he saw his father's approval. He hurriedly cupped his hands:"I am a prince, and it is still my duty to investigate the lives of the people."

Xia Tian cupped his hands and said:"Your Majesty! I have a message, please apologize first." After saying that, he knelt down and kowtowed.

Emperor Xia said with a smile:"I forgive your innocence! Tell me!"

Xia Tian said:"Wei Chen has never heard of the folk words, and he doesn't know whether they are true or not, but Wei Chen has a plan to suppress the Donghu people."

Emperor Xia was a little surprised. Xia Hu is too far away, so why suppress Dong Hu? What means are used to suppress it? But the minister had already spoken and said,"It's okay to say it!"

Xia Tian cupped his hands. Said:"Wei Chen thought that he could send a letter to the Ministry of Rites of the Song Dynasty through His Majesty the Seventh Prince, asking the Ministry of Rites of the Song Dynasty to come to our country next year to discuss business. At that time, he asked the Song Dynasty to buy the old and thin sheep. We We can give him a lower price. After all, we have not suffered a loss, but if the price of sheep is low, the Song Dynasty will definitely use the price of sheep from Daxia to negotiate with the Hu people. I have followed His Majesty the Seventh Highness to the countryside for a few days. I know that people don’t really look forward to raising sheep. When it comes to raising sheep, you have to herd them regardless of rain, strong wind, scorching sun, or snow. It’s not like farming, where it’s more difficult to harvest each species. Sheep are not as obedient as cattle and horses. It’s really I don't want to raise sheep. I'm just used to raising some, and most of them don't want to. In comparison, even if the best fat sheep in Daxia are cheap, the loss will not be big. But the Hu people specialize in raising sheep, and if the price is low, they will lose a lot. It's not a small amount. Use this to suppress the Hu people, and this is the price for talking nonsense. The country of Daxia, which is the richest country in the world, is not something that poor Hu people like them just criticize? Wei Chen thinks, To write a letter in the name of the Seventh Prince and not with a letter of credence; if the Eastern Song Dynasty really came to the Daxia Kingdom first, it shows that the Emperor of the Eastern Song Dynasty still gave the Daxia Kingdom face."

Xia Tian's words were certainly based on the prince's disapproval. On an equal footing, let's try to see whether the Song Kingdom would give him face; more importantly, let the Seventh Prince take the lead. It's a matter of credentials. I don't know who Emperor Xia sent to do it. What if he sent the Ministry of Rites? Or send the third prince? Secondly, if the Seventh Prince writes to Emperor Song and responds, Emperor Xia will have no need to snatch his son and leave it to his ministers. As long as the seventh prince is in his hands, the courtiers will not dare to snatch it due to his status as the prince. It will only matter if the third prince can grab it. The seventh prince will be able to make a good name through his business dealings with the Song Dynasty. It can definitely beat the third prince. As for the Holy Heart and Holy Will, it is too early. It has only started now. No one has the ability to be a prophet.

Xia Tian was the Seventh Prince's confidant, so of course he always spoke and acted towards the Seventh Prince.

The seventh prince was overjoyed when he heard what he said. This Xia Tian is really good at talking. He only needs to talk about unequal status, and the business dealings with Song Dynasty will be caught in his hands. I know that my father respects the prince's ability and virtue. As soon as he is caught in the business, he will do what he can even if he has no ability. As for his moral character, he has been careful in these years. There are many people who praise him, so it is impossible for his father to not know it.

As long as the emperor's brother is the one who takes care of everything, even if the Sacred Heart does not favor him, if things get bigger and more done, the people will naturally know about it. Thousands of years after me, and tens of millions of years from now, the people of the Xia Kingdom will still not cut their hands as a courtesy when they mention me? Do you think you respect it?

When Emperor Xia heard this, he felt that it made sense; if he wrote the letter with a national certificate, it would obviously be of equal rank, and it could be said to be giving face to Emperor Song; it was related to the fact that Xia was the richest country in the world, and it was arrogant and looked down on other countries in the world. After all, You are all poor people. But writing a letter in the name of the prince that the Eastern Song Dynasty is coming is really giving face to the Xia Kingdom. Emperor Xia thought about it carefully. If Xia Guo only wrote in the name of the prince, Song Guo would give him face; But if the letter was written in the name of the prince, Emperor Song would feel it was unfair. There is no need for him to pay attention to him; after all, the Xia Kingdom is the richest country in the world. If the Song Emperor even cares about this clearly and says that his prince is not equal to him and has to get a letter of credence, he will be regarded as the son of the Song Emperor. He's just a kid, I won't bother to pay attention to him in the future. He nodded. Said:"It makes sense. As long as the people of Song Dynasty are willing to buy the old sheep a little thinner, take care of the people of our country, and make the people happy, that's all. In that case, go ahead and do it."

The seventh prince kowtowed to Xia Tian to thank him and bowed out. He immediately wrote a letter in the name of the seventh prince to the Ministry of Rites of the Song Dynasty and left from Hezhou Pass.

Sure enough, the Ministry of Rites of the Song Dynasty quickly responded to the letter without mentioning it, and even published the matter in the December issue of Zhengtong Daily.

The newspaper didn't mention who spoke first, as if the transaction just happened naturally. And he promised to go to Xia Kingdom next year.

Then, the newspaper published a full article, praising Emperor Xia and the Seventh Prince harshly and severely. Moreover, careful people discovered that among the praises, Emperor Xia accounted for 60% and the Seventh Prince accounted for 40%; they distinguished between fathers and sons.

The sale has not been negotiated yet, so of course there is no price.

When Emperor Xia saw the newspaper, he laughed out loud:"Emperor Song is still very good at being a good person."

Emperor Song still praised him like this after receiving a letter from the prince of Xia Kingdom; Emperor Xia suddenly felt that Emperor Song still gave face to his son.

The courtiers and people of the Xia Kingdom were all overjoyed. Of course he was happy when the Emperor of the Eastern Song Dynasty praised his father so highly.

The principle of wearing nothing will always be valid.

Of course Dong Hu is also very happy, because so many sheep have been sold this year. The royal court collects taxes and the people make money. Who wouldn't be happy?

As for the Song army's attack on Liao, everyone in the court had discussed it.

Once you come, once you do it. Regardless of victory or defeat, the business is definitely over.

Secondly, when Emperor Xiaoer of the Song Dynasty first came to power, the Song Dynasty rebelled and entered the Liao Dynasty. Although the number of soldiers in the Song Dynasty died in foreign countries is not detailed. However, if Song Ru rebelled against Song Dynasty and entered Liao Dynasty, it was a blow to the politics, military and dignity of Song Emperor, but everyone knew that it was necessary to fight him.

It is not a trivial matter for a second-grade general to rebel.

Thirdly, since Emperor Song had this intention, it was impossible not to be on guard. If he really attacked, the cost would be a bit high.

Fourth, Xia and Donghu are separated by Xihu; it is a bit troublesome to join forces; Donghu and Qi are connected by land. It's just that it's hard for everyone to trust each other. Emperor Song took action and things happened suddenly. After everyone discussed it, maybe it would be over. fifth. The Song Dynasty did not offend all its neighbors at the same time. On the contrary, after the Emperor of the Song Dynasty came to the throne, he was polite and considerate to his neighboring countries and looked down upon others beforehand. Naturally, no one had said anything about attacking the Song Dynasty with whom.
