Chapter 138 The estrangement with Emperor Song
"Okay, go and spy on the strength of Song State."
"yes!"
Two days later, Yamamoto Maki led the people who needed to set off on a boat.
The 300,000 army, under the leadership of Wu Tian, did not violate anything. They passed through Yanmen Pass, Jiameng Pass, Dongguan, Shenxian, and crossed the Yellow River and successfully arrived at the city of Tokyo.
Emperor Song sent the left prime minister to lead all civil and military officials out to greet him.
Wu Tianyi saw Zuo Xiang coming to greet him, so he quickly dismounted.
Zuo Xiang stepped forward and held Wu Tian's hand, and smiled and said, "General, you have worked hard all the way."
Wu Tian said: "Where are these things I should do, but Zuo Prime Minister, you come out to greet them in person. Wu Tian feels guilty of it."
Zuo Xiang said: "What does the general say? You have made such great contributions to the Song Dynasty. I should come out to greet you."
Wu Tian smiled and turned around and ordered Commander Wu Yong to lead his troops outside the city, and he and the left prime minister entered Tokyo City.
The streets in Tokyo are filled with people.
The people were almost thrusting their heads, just to see their great heroes.
"General, look, the people love you so much."
"This is all because of your Majesty and the Left Prime Minister. By the way, the Left Prime Minister said that Dali invaded Shu and western Sichuan had been occupied. Where has the Dali army been now?"
Zuo Xiang was also surprised by Wu Tian’s question.
He shook his head and said, "I don't know about Dali's invasion of Shu. General, have you heard it wrong?"
Wu Tian frowned slightly, and he seemed to understand something in his heart.
When they walked into the court, Emperor Song walked down from the throne and said to Wu Tian with a smile: "I have worked hard all the way. Today I will hold a banquet to welcome you. Our monarch and ministers must not return without getting drunk."
Wu Tian bowed: "Your Majesty's kindness is my heart. However, Dali invaded, and I asked for a fight and immediately led my troops to Shu to repel the Dali troops."
Emperor Song was embarrassed. Dali invasion was a false thing, and it was an excuse for him to deceive Wu Tian back.
"This Dali invasion... Oh, he has been killed by the border soldiers, so my dear minister doesn't have to worry about it."
"Oh?" Wu Tian glanced at Emperor Song, "Since the border soldiers have already retreated from Dali invasion, why did Your Majesty hurriedly call us back?
If Your Majesty does not call us back, Youzhou City and even the capital of Liao Kingdom Genting City will be taken down by us at this moment.
At that time, our Song Dynasty could not only restore our territory to the Han and Tang dynasties, but also contribute to the world.
Now, all this has become a bubble.”
Emperor Song was embarrassed and forced to smile.
"What I'm saying is, I'm confused for a moment."
"The immortality of Liao Kingdom has always been a confidant of my Song Dynasty. I am afraid that war will still begin in the future."
Wu Tian sighed slightly.
Emperor Song's face turned red and the atmosphere became even more awkward.
At this time, the eunuch eunuch came to report: "Your Majesty, the banquet has been arranged."
Emperor Song took the opportunity to answer: "My dear, the banquet is ready, let's take a seat."
Wu Tian was not in the mood to have a banquet with Emperor Song, and bowed: "Your Majesty, I have been leading the army and fighting these days. I am very tired. I want to go home first. I will not eat this banquet. Please allow me to leave first."
"The old minister is also feeling a little uncomfortable. Please allow the old minister to retreat."
The Zuo Xiang interrupted at this time.
Emperor Song saw Wu Tian and Zuo Xiang so disrespectful. Although he was angry, he still had a smile on his face.
