    On the bank of the turbid Yellow River, a group of ragged people with disheveled hair were walking slowly carrying a wooden plank. They walked in pairs, walking very slowly because their feet were still shackled. These people were prisoners sent from nearby states and counties.  A prisoner raised his head, and the wind blew away the messy hair on his forehead. He squinted and saw that a long pontoon bridge on the river was extending to the other side.  ¡°Hurry up!¡± urged the official supervisor wearing a tall hat and soap boots on the side of the road, raising the wooden stick in his hand as if to hit him.  The prisoners quickly lowered their heads and took a few steps faster with difficulty.  After a while, the supervisor stopped staring at the prisoners and turned his head to look south.  The prisoners were also very curious and turned their heads to take a look at the right opportunity.  The Chanzhou City Tower stands deep in sight, which is nothing unusual. It has always been on the south bank of the Yellow River.  But on the post road in the northern city of Chanzhou, the clouds of flags and carriages attracted everyone's attention, and there seemed to be many people outside the city gate.  ¡­The woven gauze curtain on a large carriage was lifted up. Fu Jinzhan also looked at the pontoon bridge on the Yellow River from a distance. She only took one look and let go of the curtain.  Fu Jinzhan had straight shoulders and dignified manner, with a slight smile on his face.  There are two women sitting opposite her, facing the opposite direction of the carriage. They are Du and Zhang.  There were some civil servants outside the carriage, as well as the escorting military commander Du Chenggui, who was Du's younger brother and the commander of the inner palace.  Soon there was a commotion outside the carriage, and someone said loudly: "The Queen is lucky to be in Chanzhou, and the officials and people of Chanzhou are all honored. I respectfully welcome the Queen" Then there was a reply from a civil servant, and the person who came forward seemed to be the Privy Councilor Wang Pu.  Fu Jinzhan sat in the car without paying any attention.  Du said cautiously: "The Central Plains and the Liao Kingdom have been fighting for so many years. Are we really going to negotiate for peace this time?" Fu Jinzhan opened his red lips lightly and immediately corrected: "The Liao Kingdom is seeking peace, not negotiating peace." "Yes, it is.  ." Du Shi said hurriedly.  Zhang also echoed: "The Xu army pressed down on the border and captured Jinzhou. At this time, the Liao Kingdom wants to talk, what else is it but asking for peace?" Zhang paused and then said, "Is the official family coming to Chanzhou soon?  " As soon as she spoke, she saw a teasing smile on Mrs. Du's face. Mrs. Zhang suddenly felt a little embarrassed for no reason.  Fu Jinzhan's eyes were bright and he saw the subtle expressions of the two people. He felt a little unhappy, but he soon felt relieved.  Everything may not be perfect now, but Fu Jinzhan accepted it Guo Shao's existence can make the country strong and stable internally and externally. Even if Fu Jinzhan sometimes feels jealous, she also gets more happiness.  .  After Guo Shao's health improved, no one dared to threaten Jinzhan, including the powerful foreign invader Liao!  Fu Jinzhan felt extra safe when he thought of him.  Mrs. Zhang secretly glanced at the golden lamp opposite with some fear, looked at it and said: "The officials accepted the Liao Kingdom's peace proposal, why did they choose the south bank of the Yellow River? Is there anything special about Chanzhou?" Mrs. Du took the words.  "I don't know either." Fu Jinzhan said nothing. She didn't know what was special about Chanzhou.  ¡­A few days later, Guo Shao led a group of cavalry to the Yellow River. The pontoon bridge had been repaired.  He rode across the Yellow River and saw a large group of people on the south bank stopping to greet him.  At this moment, Fu Jinzhan was seen stepping down from a carriage and looking over from a distance.  Guo Shao lightly kicked the black horse's stirrup, and the horse ran forward briskly.  "Hey!" Guo Shao reined in the horse in advance and made it stop slowly.  Fu Jinzhan looked at him happily, but she still maintained her etiquette. She held her jade hands in front of her belly, bent her knees and squatted down, and said: "I respectfully welcome the official, and I wish the official to return victoriously."  " At this time, the civil and military officials around them clasped their fists and said, "I welcome your majesty, may your majesty live forever!" Guo Shao stepped forward and saw that Fu Jinzhan was wearing a loose dress, but the lining was a flat collar and a collarbone.  Her skin is white and smooth, her round face is very bright with red lips and white teeth, her posture is dignified and elegant, and her happy expression is slightly shy.  Guo Shao suddenly felt his blood flowing, and his whole body was full of energy that could control ten women at night. It was like a person who had been hungry all day and sat down at the dinner table, always feeling that he could eat a whole table of dishes.  He stretched out his dirty big hands, firmly grasped Jinzhan's rhubarb and lifted him up, and said to everyone: "Get back on your feet." Guo Shao abandoned his horse and rode with Jinzhan.  A large group of honor guards and people marched towards Chanzhou City.  Chanzhou is one of the countless cities on the south bank of the Yellow River, and it is extremely lively at this time.  The drums were beating loudly on the city tower, and the people lined the streets to watch. Someone on the city tower loudly read out the achievements of the emperor's personal expedition.  Amidst the commotion, Guo Shao did not show up. He was sitting in the carriage, only interested in Jinzhan, and his eyes carefully looked at every line of her.  &nbsp"Anyway, you are already familiar with it. When you see my clothes, you can think of what they look like under them. Doesn't it mean you have less expectations?" Jinzhan looked at him with a smile.  Guo Shao had been on the war for many days. He followed her words and couldn't control himself anymore, so he put his hands on his knees on his skirt.  Unexpectedly, Fu Jinzhan held his hand and said with a blushing smile: "There are at least tens of thousands of people outside, and they will all be people when you get off the car soon. Don't lose your etiquette." "I listen to Jinzhan and bear with me." Guo  Shao had no choice but to say.  Jinzhan couldn't help but ask: "Your Majesty negotiated peace with the Liao Kingdom, why didn't you choose Hebei as the nearest place, but come to Chanzhou?" Guo Shao laughed and said: "If it were in Hebei, then we wouldn't meet so soon." Jinzhan  He glared at him and said: "I'm serious, I'm a little curious." Guo Shao pondered for a moment and said: "This peace negotiation is no small matter, it must be a historic landmark event It will definitely go down in history! In order to have this matter have a  The catchy name is totally worth the trouble. ""Chanzhou Alliance?" Jinzhan read it in a soothing and pleasant voice, which was quite catchy.  But Guo Shao still felt that it was not smooth enough. He shook his head slightly and said: "There is an ancient lake to the east of Chanzhou City, named Chanyuan. Therefore, this peace negotiation can be called the 'Chanyuan Alliance'." "The Chanyuan Alliance" Jin  Zhan read it once and said with a smile, "Your Majesty always has fantastic ideas, and sometimes he is as stubborn as a boy." Guo Shao smiled and said, "My body is also like a boy. You will know if you try Jinzhan." He  Hurry up and distract Jinzhan's attention with your nonsense, otherwise it won't be clear if you continue to explain. Why does the name have to be called "Chanyuan League" after a not-so-famous ancient lake?  There are so many catchy names.  After hearing this, two red clouds flew up on Fu Jinzhan's face, and his breathing seemed a little heavier than before.  ¡­ On the Hebei Plain, another group of people heading towards Chanzhou were also on their way.  On both sides of the post road, there are large areas of lush crop fields. After the Hebei Plain is free from the disturbance of the rangers, it seems that every inch of the land is planted with food.  There are only a few fireworks floating in the wilderness, which are the smoke of "cooked dung" cooked with charcoal (coal) or firewood.  The farmer wearing a straw hat stood up from the field from time to time, holding a sickle in his hand and watching vigilantly at the armored soldiers and horses on the post road.  In the early days of Hebei, the people here were still very nervous when they saw Jia soldiers; unlike the households in the Central Plains, they would just watch the excitement when encountering such a situation.  In front of the men and horses, Dong Zunyi was riding a horse and swaggering, and the flag bearer beside him was holding the flag of the Tiger and Ben Army.  Behind him, a group of armored cavalry were guarding a carriage and a group of Khitans on horseback.  Those in the cavalry brigade are the Daliao envoys.  There was one envoy and three deputy envoys, all sitting on the carriage.  Among the deputy envoys was Yang Gun. Yang Gun was very silent, but he behaved very calmly.  The atmosphere in the car was dull, and the chief and deputy envoys were not in a hurry to discuss countermeasures; because the chief envoy Xiao Siwen had hardly said a word since he left the king's tent.  Xiao Siwen was sitting in the car with his eyes closed, his body swaying along with the bumps of the carriage, as if he was asleep.  But the bags under his eyes were heavier than usual, and he obviously hadn't slept well in several days.  Within Daliao, although many Khitans were unwilling to negotiate with the Nanhe, it was of no use. Only the national policy propositions of Yelv Xiezhen and other parties were decisive.  Yelv Xiezhen also convinced most of the nobles, because compared to Xu State, the insult of the Daliao princess and the torture and killing of Khitan people after giving birth to a daughter made people more intolerable; the Goryeo Kingdom took advantage of the situation and robbed it, which also made the Daliao nobles angry  This kind of thinking is like being beaten by a tall and strong person and you can accept it, but being slapped by someone you completely despise will make you furious!  Xiao Siwen can no longer influence national policy, so he has no choice but to send him to the enemy's door during this trip.  If he doesn't come, will Yelv Xiezhen come in person?  "Will the people of Xu ask Daliao to become a vassal?" a deputy envoy finally spoke.  Another deputy envoy immediately said: "Then what are we talking about? Since the founding of Daliao by Taizu, only other tribes have claimed vassalage. When will they become vassals to others? If they make such unreasonable demands and make Daliao suffer humiliation, we will reject it immediately!"  Xiao Siwen opened his eyes and said: "A peace negotiation under the coercion of the enemy's army is simply an alliance under the city. Peace negotiation itself at this time is humiliating."  Come, we should try our best to reach a peace agreement. "Xiao Siwen said: "Then we have to see what the conditions are." At this point, Xiao Siwen quietly observed Yang Gun, who was also one of the deputy envoys, but did not express his position.  "Deputy Ambassador Yang?" Xiao Siwen looked at him.  Yang Gun immediately made a respectful gesture and said: "Mr. Xiao is the official envoy, and it is Mr. Xiao who has the final say on this matter. However the Privy Envoy of the North Courtyard"Because competing with Xu State is not the way to achieve long-term governance. At this time, Daliao was in trouble both internally and externally, and had to make a decisive decision.  " Xiao Siwen suddenly understood after hearing this: "A good bird chooses a tree to roost in."  Deputy Envoy Yang himself was quite talented, and being appreciated by the Privy Council would also be of great benefit to Daliao.  " Yang Gun said casually: "The privy envoy was an official in the same dynasty as Duke Xiao, and he was not an outsider.  " Xiao Siwen had nothing to say. Looking out from the gap in the carriage, he could see the endless plains, and the pale and shit-yellow post roads were winding, like a road of no return with an unpredictable future.
