This dragon chair has great charm and attraction for all princes.
In the past, Zhao Huan always dreamed about how enjoyable it would be for him to sit on the Dragon Throne.
But now, in addition to confusion, there is confusion and fear in his eyes!
He, Cai Jing and Gao Qiu were originally together and knew the war in the north very well.
But I never expected that Tong Guan and Song Jiang would be such useless people!
Not only were hundreds of thousands of troops unable to defeat Yanjing, they were beaten by the Liao people in the north and fled in panic, becoming a lost dog.
Zhao Huan sat tremblingly on the dragon chair, everything in his eyes seemed so unreal.
He thought that becoming an emperor would be a very comfortable thing, but he did not expect that he would have to face such a terrible thing just after he became the emperor.
Zhao Huan hurriedly asked Cai Jing below.
"Master Cai, how do you think we should deal with this matter now?"
When Cai Jing heard the news, his mind was also thinking about how to deal with this matter to the greatest extent.
He thought for a while and then said.
"Prince Ding, uh, no, the official family. There is still room for change in this matter."
"Those people from the Jin Kingdom are all like wolves and tigers, drinking blood from their hair. They all live in a bitter cold land and have never seen the prosperity of our Song Dynasty."
"This time when they went south, they must have used cavalry as the main force. They were unable to attack cities and strongholds. They could only burn, kill and loot along the way."
"Their purpose is very simple. They just want to snatch some gold, silver and jewelry from us. Since we can't defeat them now, we might as well show our sincerity to them directly."
Cai Jing spoke in a subtle way, but his meaning was actually very simple.
That is to say, these tigers and wolves from the north are coming, and we can't defeat them. So we just bend down, knelt, and greet them respectfully.
Then he collected gold and silver treasures from the people and gave them to them.
Zhao Huan didn't have much knowledge in this area. When he heard what Cai Jing said, he immediately patted the dragon chair and said, "Wonderful! Then this matter is settled!"
"But having said that, Taishi Cai, who do you think should be better responsible for this important task?"
As soon as Zhao Huan finished speaking, a man stepped out from the crowd.
He bowed his hands and spoke clearly to everyone's ears.
"I would like to inform the official family that I am willing to go."
And this person is none other than Cai Jing's eldest son, Cai You.
Logically speaking, Cai Jing should be happy that Cai You stepped out from the crowd and took the initiative to take on this matter, but he frowned.
And the eyes that looked at Cai You were full of deep fear and displeasure!
Although Cai You is Cai Jing's biological son, the relationship between father and son has never been good.
Cai You's mother passed away when he was very young.
Therefore, Cai Jing helped his concubine become the main wife.
Cai You has always believed that his mother was killed by Cai Jing. Although he could not find any evidence, the father and son were separated because of this.
In addition, Cai You has always been by Zhao Huan's side and is extremely flattering.
Father and son also often quarreled due to political differences.
Normally, even if Cai You and Cai Jing face each other, they would look like strangers and would not even say hello.
Gao Qiu quickly glanced at Cai Jing. Cai You was originally someone close to Zhao Huan. He took the initiative to ask for help this time. Logically speaking, this task would definitely fall on him.
But Cai Jing and Gao Qiu did not want Cai You to go.
After all, this matter was accomplished, and it was a great achievement.
This was also the first and most important thing that Zhao Huan did as emperor before he ascended the throne!
For any powerful minister, this matter must be taken into his own hands.
Even if you don’t go there yourself, you still have to let the close associates around you do it!
