March 27, the eighth year of Hongwu, the Song Dynasty.

Almost a month after Wanyan Zonggou died, Kang Lu, the "his messenger", finally took his handwritten letter and boarded Yuzhou Island, the East China Sea where the pseudo-Song empress Wanyan Yan was located.

The reason why it delayed for so long was that Wanyan Yan was still waiting for her and the people under her, and actually didn't want to go abroad.

She grew up so old that the only time she went to sea was this time when she went to Yuzhou Island. She was so fainted by just this little sea route. Going farther overseas, who knows if she would die?

And how can the Song Dynasty be better overseas? She left Zhao Gou in Pizhou to hold a bar, but in fact she also wanted to throw a stone to ask for directions. If Zhao Kai could spare Zhao Gou, she could discuss the conditions for surrender with Zhao Kai.

So she stayed on Yuzhou Island and dragged Kang Lu at the same time to confirm Zhao Gou's life and death.

Another reason why Wanyan Yanzhi was unwilling to summon Kang Lu immediately was that her due date was that although Zhao Gou had been "cast" for many years, it did not prevent Wanyan Yan from having children for Zhao Gou!

Just over twenty days after Wanyan Yan fled to Yuzhou Island, she and Zhao Gou's third child Zhao Shanhe were born.

So when Kang Lu went to the island, Wanyan Yan was in confinement.

In the Faqi Temple, which was used as a temporary palace by Wanyan Yan, Kang Lu handed Zhao Gou's handwritten letter with both hands, then stepped aside, looking at his nose, looking at his nose, and asking his heart, looking at his heart like a loyal old slave.

Wanyan Yan looked at the letter for a while, and suddenly her tears rolled down like a pearl with broken thread.

Seeing her crying, Kang Lu knew that it was wrong, but he still comforted him: "My lady, don't cry, although the official family has suffered some crimes, as long as the Queen is willing to surrender to the court, there is still a way out."

Wanyan Yan sobbed, "Official Kang, don't hide it from me. The official family is dead, this is the last piece of the official family!"

She already knows?

Kang Lu was frightened by Wanyan Yan and was immediately frightened and sweaty!

This letter was indeed Zhao Gou's last letter! And at that time, Zhao Gou should have known that there were many dangers, so it was very likely that he used some code words in the letter.

In addition, Kang Lu stayed in Qushan County for more than 20 days before he reached Yuzhou Island. During these days, Wanyan Yan may have discovered the news of Zhao Gou's death.

Now, as long as Kang Lu says a wrong sentence, he will immediately be in a different position!

If you ensure it is correct, there is only the truth.

"Empress, wuwu" Kang Lu really came as soon as he said that, and immediately knelt down at Wanyan Yan in tears.

Seeing his performance, Wanyan Yan knew that he was right, so she sighed and said to Kang Lu: "Since the official family is gone, his letter of surrender is just a piece of waste paper. If the Emperor of the Song Dynasty really intends to invite peace, he will ask him to issue a clear edict to pardon me and my entire army, and then enfeoff Chuzhou to my son Zhenshan. I am willing to be the king and conquer Huaidong for the court. After the matter is completed, I can go to Shuntian Prefecture in person to apologize to the official family!"

Kang Lu was stunned after hearing this. At this point, Wanyan Yan was really willing to believe in Zhao Kai? She wasn't afraid of being deceived into Shuntian Mansion and then killed?

There must be a fraud!

However, Kang Lu had to follow Wanyan Yan, otherwise this woman would kill people without blinking when she became cruel.

"Hao Haochen will definitely convey your meaning to the Song Dynasty officials," Kang Lu hesitated for a moment, "But do you really believe in the Song Dynasty officials?"

Wanyan Yan snorted: "The heroes of the Song Dynasty are the world's most powerful, and they must be trustworthy and do what they do.

It is not a hero to deceive us orphans and widows. If he wants to kill us, he will not issue an edict to pardon him. If he is willing to pardon him, my mother and son and all the soldiers of the army will have a way out."

What she said seemed to make sense. Although Zhao Kai was not absolutely trustworthy, he was still relatively trustworthy. At least the promises given by the formal edict have not been overturned.

"The official family does keep their word." Kang Lu nodded, and then made a suggestion: "Empress, if you don't write a letter to the official family and beg for a while, maybe the official family will be softened and pardon you and the two princes."

Wanyan Yan sighed, nodded, and asked someone to take paper and pen, and wrote a pitiful letter of begging for mercy to Zhao Kai in his confinement dormitory.

After putting the letter of begging for mercy into an envelope and handing it to Kang Lu, she ordered someone to send Kang Lu away from Yuzhou Island.

Kang Lu had just left Wanyan Yan's dormitory, and a side door of the dormitory was pushed open, and several big men walked out of it, namely Li Cheng, Liu Lin, Kong Yanzhou and Luo Yu.

The four big traitors were standing in a clean room inside the side door just now, stretching their ears to listen to the conversation between Wanyan Yan and Kang Lu.

"Sit all." Wanyan Yan looked sad and ordered the four of them to sit down, and then said, "Where should we go now? The Ai family has no idea. You are all important officials of the late emperor. If you have any ideas, just say anything."

It's the Ai family and the late emperor again, and he still has no idea what he said

The four traitors immediately understood Wanyan Yan's thoughts, and they all breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the news of Zhao Gou's death. They knew that there was no possibility of surrendering to maintain wealth.

Zhao Kai didn't even let his brothers go, could he let them go?

And how did Zhao Kai treat the traitors there when he was pacifying Hebei and Beijing?

The traitors on Hebei Road and Beijing Road were just traitors. They not only became traitors, but also supported Zhao Gou as an official in the Song Dynasty when Zhao Kai had defeated the Jin Kingdom and obtained Yanjing City. This was to support Zhao Gou and plot against him!

All the traitors and plot against each other are enough to be cut off!

"Empress, Yuzhou Island is too close to the coast, and it is not a place to live for a long time," Li Chengdao, "The only way to do this is to die overseas!"

"Yes, yes, Yuzhou Island, Chenjia Island and Dengzhou are not places to stay for a long time." Kong Yanzhou also said, "Especially Yuzhou Island, it is too close to Yue Fei's army!"

Liu Lin said: "But where should we go? Now the Shangguo army has occupied Haizhou, Goryeo, and the entire Goryeo will be occupied by Shangguo."

Haizhou in Goryeo has always been the retreat that Zhao Gou had worked hard to manage, but now it has fallen into the hands of the Jin soldiers who invaded Goryeo.

Since the Jin soldiers entered Goryeo, then the pseudo-Song could not take refuge in Haizhou. Moreover, the territory of Goryeo-Song was too small. There were 42,500 troops in the pseudo-Song side, plus officials, craftsmen, monks and Taoists, and more than 50,000 households. Even if one household only took away four to five people on average, it would be 200,000!

It’s enough for these people to conquer the entire Goryeo, how can a small Goryeo Haizhou be tolerate it?

"How about going to Tanluo first?" said Luo Yu, the only civil servant among the four important officials. "Tanluo was occupied by the Southern Dynasty several years ago, but because he was too poor, he did not manage it well and did not seriously set up defenses, so he left it there."

Danluo is Jeju Island, which was occupied by Zhao Shu a few years ago. Then he was disliked because he was too poor!

Wanyan Yan frowned, "How can Danluo be so poor, how can he afford to support 50,000 Chinese people?"

Luo Yu said: "Maybe Dan Luo can be a springboard and enter Japan's Kingdom!"

Sure enough, the traitor is indeed going to escape to Japan!

"Go to Japan?" Wanyan Yan asked, "Is Japan rich and powerful?"

Luo Yu shook his head, "It's neither rich nor strong, but it's not strong, the Southern Dynasties once came to Japan a few years ago, and signed a contract with the Japanese Dazaifu and built a castle harbor on a small island called Hirado Island. But it was still in the middle of the day and did not go deeper."

The "expansion" method of the Southern Song Dynasty was very strange in the eyes of Luo Yu, the rich man from Shandong. He had a hammer in the east and a hammer in the west, and he was all at the same time. What's even more strange is that they had the strength to invade a large scale, but they liked to create a three or five thousand land division to make a meaning. And after the "meaning", most of the three or five thousand land divisions would also evacuate, at most they would build several fortresses on some small islands, and the defenders would not exceed three hundred.

In Goryeo, after Japan beat the enemy a few times, the "Invincible Navy" of the Southern Song Dynasty slipped to the south again. First, it beat Chameng and built a port. Then because the port was still not a big fight with Annan, Annan sent 100,000 troops, and the Southern Song Dynasty guarded the fortress of the port fortress to deal with it for three to five thousand, and they even won!

However, the Southern Song Dynasty did not take the opportunity to annex Annan, but accepted the nominal surrender of the Annan Li Dynasty, and let Annan go lightly.

The reason for this is that the Southern Song Dynasty had fought with Zhu Luo, Zhen La, and the Great Food Kingdom in the South China and the West. Zhao Huan didn’t know if he had seen the policy of the Warring States. He must not know that there was such a thing as a long-term relationship with nearby attacks? Can he beat Zhao Kai at this level?

"Empress," Liu Lin also knew a little about overseas affairs, so he added, "I also heard that the Southern Dynasty spent a lot of effort on the Kyushu Island in Japan, but later gave up the foundation for the Southern Dynasty to stay on this Kyushu Island halfway, which was just for my use! We might as well cross the sea to Haizhou, get supplies on the territory of the Shangguo Kingdom, and head south along the Kyushu coastline first, take Danluo, and then enter Kyushu Island."

In fact, the Southern Song Dynasty did not give up halfway, but had long-term plans. Zhao Huan regarded Japan as one of the many retreats, so he set up a "base" and opened up a route, and supported a group of large merchants who followed the Japan-Song trade line, but did not invest a lot of resources to occupy and develop.

Zhao Shu, Zhao Buqiu and others, under the promotion of the maritime businessmen behind them, guided Japan to launch the "Song Affairs Movement" in order to seek greater economic benefits.

The expansion of the Southern Song Dynasty in the direction of the South Ocean was also a way to retreat, economic development, and two hands were also a "public and private joint venture". It was a "public and private joint venture". It was a powerful ship and a strong tank! Can it not be a good deal? Whoever does not accept it will beat you up! Anyway, it is a "dimensionality reduction strike". None of the former maritime powers encountered the "battleship" of the Southern Song Navy!

However, the Southern Song Dynasty's approach was unintentionally paved the way for the desperate pseudo-Song without the management of the Southern Song Dynasty. They looked dark and didn't know where to go?
