"Xiao Buyan is indeed a smart person to help Japan's state-owned imperial examinations. He should be competent."

Zhao Kai praised Xiao without saying a few words, but his brows frowned slightly, "But I originally wanted him to go on a mission to the Western Tang Dynasty. If he went to Japan, then who could go to the Western Tang Dynasty?"

"Western Tang?" Yu Yunwen was stunned, "Official family, are you talking about the Western thief?"

The Western thief and the Western Tang Dynasty are different!

The Song thieves were incompatible, and of course there was no possibility of peaceful coexistence between the Song Dynasty and the Western thieves. If the Song Dynasty was ready to spare them, they would not be called the Western thieves.

"It's the Western Tang Dynasty," Zhao Kai said, "It's not the Western thief for the time being. In the future, they are the thieves or the Tang Dynasty, so let's talk about the situation."

This is a thief, not a thief, just like Zhao Kai’s words! When did Zhao Kai see them look like thieves again, they are Western thieves.

As Zhao Kai spoke, he handed Cao Mian’s long letter in his hand to Yu Yunwen, “This is Cao Mian’s letter, you can take a look first.”

Yu Yuwen quickly took Cao Mian's letter and read it.

Cao Mian's letter was written very long because he had to say a lot to Zhao Kai. First of all, of course he was talking about family matters. Cao Mian's daughter was Zhao Kai's beloved concubine. She hasn't seen her for many years now, so of course she has to contact her for a while.

After contacting each other, Cao Mian reported to Zhao Kai in great detail the politics, military, economic, and faith of the Western Tang Dynasty today!

Among them, the politics, military, and economics of the Western Tang Dynasty were not important, but what really mattered was faith!

Well, for Zhao Kai, the Confucian clan, the Confucian clan, the belief in the Western Tang Dynasty was of course very important.

Cao Mian has always been very concerned about the affairs of the East. He obtained a lot of information from the East through the Silk Road Caravan (some of which were sent by him). Of course, he also knew about Zhao Kai's reform of Confucianism and the establishment of the Confucian court, so Cao Mian felt that this was an opportunity to improve his relationship with the Song Dynasty.

Although Buddhism was the state religion in the Western Tang Dynasty, this country also regarded Confucianism as its national religion. Therefore, this country is half-Confucian and half-Buddhist, and the Confucian component is not low.

Just look at the names of Li Renxiao (Emperor of the Western Tang Dynasty), Li Renli and Cao Mian. Ren, Xiao and Li must believe in Confucianism.

Cao Mian means hard work, study hard, do questions, and be an official. This is also the path of Confucianism. If you completely believe in Buddhism, you will not be so "excited".

In the letter, Cao Mian stated that the Western Tang Dynasty could be vassalized to the Song Dynasty and was named King of the Western Tang Dynasty.

At the same time, the Western Tang Dynasty also welcomed the Confucian scholars to send Confucian scholars to the four towns of Anxi to open academies to spread the principles of saints, and the Western Tang Dynasty court also agreed to grant a certain amount of land to the academies sent by the Confucian scholar to maintain their expenses in the Western Regions.

Such peace negotiations are a bit unexpected!

However, Yu Yunwen did not show any joy, but tightened her eyebrows again.

Because he knew that abnormality would lead to demons!

Sure enough, after reporting on the issue of faith, Cao Mian's letter reported that the Jin thief chief Wanyan Zonghan, and Wanyan Xiebao led 300,000 people to "suddenly" enter the Western Tang territory.

According to Cao Mian, after entering the Luntai area of ​​the Western Tang Dynasty, the Jin thieves "forced" the Western Tang Dynasty to provide a large amount of food and livestock.

After recuperating for some days, the Jin thieves traveled westward. They arrived at Chachi, west of Xi'an Prefecture (Suiye), and then advanced to the edge of a large river called Huzhang River. They confronted Sultan Sanjar of the Turkic State for a month and only had a confrontation. The two sides did not fight. Not only did they not fight, Wanyan Xiebao also met Sultan Sanjar on a wooden boat on the Huzhang River.

After the two met, the troops of both sides retreated from the front line at the same time!

Afterwards, the Western Tang Dynasty received news from Wanyan Zonghan. Wanyan Xiebao, two traitors who had no faith, received a large amount of gold, silver and treasures from Sultan Sanjar and dozens of Persian Ocean Horses who were very beautiful, so they were bribed. So they did not intend to be the official of the Great Food family, but wanted to join forces with the Great Food Kingdom to conquer some Roman countries and become the emperor of Rome!

"Official family," Yu Yunwen had already read the long letter and thought, "It seems that the Western Tang and the Jin thieves who were traveling west were going their separate ways. They were worried that they were besieged by the Jin thieves and the Dashi Kingdom, so they had to move closer to us."

Zhao Kai snorted: "Those who violate the powerful Song Dynasty in a clear way will be punished even if they are far away! Even if the Jin thieves escape to Rome, I will not let them go!"

Yu Yunwen was stunned again. He was talking about Western Tang just now, why did he jump on the run away Jin Thief? Is this thinking too fast?

No, the official must have wanted to continue chasing the invading thieves and send an army into the territory of the four towns of Anxi!

With the army invading, the Western Tang Dynasty could only be honest and obedient. It was so clever!

"The official family is wise!" Yu Yunwen quickly gave him a high hat and then said, "I suggest that Hexi Jiedushi Li Xiaozhong lead troops into Anxi in the name of rescuing the Western Tang Dynasty and stationed in Gaochang.

At the same time, an official who is both civil and military and proficient in Confucianism was sent to lead a group of Confucian scholars to follow the army westward, and then they could establish academies in Gaochang, Shule, Khotan, Kucha and other places.

With Gaochang's army as its backing, no one dares to mess with the academies in Shule, Khotan and Kucha, so that we can grow bigger soon!"

It was Zhao Kai's turn now and was stunned. He said that he didn't want to let go of the Jin thief who fled west. In fact, it had nothing to do with the Western Tang Dynasty because he did not plan to chase him by land! It was too far to chase him from land, and it would not be possible to get there for a year or two years!

Moreover, the Han people were not nomadic people after all. Even if Zhao Kai did not do anything, he would send some troops to Europe at most, and he would not be able to gain a foothold there for a long time.

However, the Song Dynasty could still go to Rome by sea, just like Columbus went to India by sea. If Zhao Kai remembers correctly, this earth is round!

However, the suggestion made by Yu Yunwen, a ruthless man, seemed to be good, and it was indeed impossible to make the Western Tang Dynasty too proud. Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Xiebao took 300,000 people to the Western Regions. Without the active support of the Western Tang Dynasty, it would be impossible. Just a solid wall and clear the country could turn 300,000 people into evil deeds.

Now Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Xi must be the official family of Caesar in the Roman Kingdom, regardless of the Western Tang Dynasty, so the Western Tang Dynasty turned around and hugged the Song Dynasty's thick legs. But the Western Tang people could not make a fortune? They could also go to Baghdad!

Even if you don’t go to Baghdad, you can move south and enter the river.

So I have to send someone to urge them!

"An official who is both civil and military, and is proficient in Confucianism." Zhao Kai glanced at Yu Yunwen. He understood that Yu Yunwen wanted to make some military achievements in the Western Regions.

In recent years, Yu Yunwen's official position has been promoted, but to be honest, he still lacks some military achievements, especially his military achievements that have not been strong and he has won the Southeast. Who can convince him?

However, Zhao Kai cannot let him go because Yu Yunwen still has to stay in the east to deal with Wanyan Liang, the Jinzhe!

He is Wanyan Liang's nemesis! This time, he should be able to kill this little golden thief emperor in one go, right?

Thinking of this, Zhao Kai smiled and said, "Lu Baoshan was the top scholar in the first year of Hongwu. He is both first-class in literature and martial arts. He has been loyal and cautious in doing things over the years, but he has not gotten any chance to make contributions. I should also recommend him. This opportunity will be given to him."

Lu Baoshan was Lu Xiucai. Although the top scorer in the first year of Hongwu was the top scorer, his level was not comparable to that of Yu Yunwen, who was also the top scorer, so his official career was not even mentioned.

Yu Yunwen is just called Yu Yunwen, and Zhao Kai is also very useful! Who made the emperor of the Jin Dynasty called Wanyan Liang?

The Great Jin Kingdom is now working with Wanyan Liang and Wanyan Zongbi. Can Zhao Kai play two big names, Yu Yunwen and Yue Fei, and that is not enough to be tight?

Seeing that Yu Yunwen seemed a little disappointed, Zhao Kai smiled and said to him: "Father Bin, the Western Tang Dynasty is nothing. The Jin thieves are the biggest concern of our dynasty. I must completely turn the land of the white mountains and black waters into the land for the Han farmers to cultivate in my lifetime! As long as this is the country I passed down, I will not be robbed by the sky again!"

The disaster of heaven?

Yu Yunwen doesn’t understand what Zhao Kai means?

Although the Khitan and the Jin thieves had both fought to almost enter the Central Plains, they were not successful. Moreover, the damage they caused was far from being as intoxicated as the Heavenly Confucian!

Zhao Kai knew that Yu Yunwen didn't understand what he meant, but he couldn't explain how much trouble would happen in this corner of Northeast China once he couldn't control it. After all, it was all things that didn't happen, and maybe it wouldn't happen again.

He had no choice but to laugh at Yu Yunwen and said, "How many people are there to meet today? Who is the next one?"

"The next one is Master Darba, the envoy of the Western Tang Dynasty."

It turned out that the one who was sent by Li Renli and Cao Mian to Shuntian Prefecture in Beijing in the Song Dynasty was this respected monk. He has been doing well in the Western Regions in the past two years and has become a monk that everyone admires.

Zhao Kai smiled and said, "Haha, I haven't seen this monk for many years. I have to invite him to dinner and talk to him about the West again.

Father Bin, you don’t have to be with him. Go back to the old city of Shuntian Prefecture to discuss with Xiao Buyan how to open academies in Japan and help the Japanese conduct imperial examinations!”

Yu Yunwen hurriedly bowed to Zhao Kai, "Then I will take my leave first."

It turns out that Zhao Kai has not officially moved the capital from the old city of Shuntian Prefecture to the new city of Shuntian Prefecture. After all, the new city has not been fully completed. Today he is just meeting foreign envoys in the magnificent new city to show the majestic etiquette of the Celestial Empire. He will return to the old city of Shuntian Prefecture tomorrow morning, and in the afternoon he will have to discuss with his ministers in the Yaochi Hall about the northern expedition to Yanshan and Liaodong!

On Zhao Kai's blacklist, the first place in the Golden Thieves is Genghis Khan, but Zhao Kai can't remember who he is now? So the Golden Thieves became Zhao Kai's actual number one enemy.
Chapter completed!
