26. Wanyan Yong proclaimed emperor

"After I raise my troops, I can immediately go south to help you Song people attack Wanyan Liang!"

"But when the time comes, how do you Song people plan to compensate our Jin country?"

At this moment, Wan Yanyong suddenly changed his tone.

"Compensate your Jin country?"

"I helped you, Prince Ge, to contact the soldiers and horses in the uprising. Isn't this compensation?"

Ye Yiwen also felt that something was wrong.

"You did help me find Wanyan Fushou and Wanyan Mouyan, but this is your personal gift to me and has nothing to do with the cooperation between our Jin and Song countries!"

"Besides, you Song people can't even defeat Wan Yanliang, so what qualifications do you have to negotiate terms with us, the Great Jin Kingdom?"

Wan Yanyong suddenly changed back to the same attitude as when he first met Ye Yiwen.

"you……!"

"Are you trying to burn bridges?"

Ye Yiwen was a little anxious when he saw Wan Yanyong suddenly turned against him.

"As I said, your gift to me is one thing, but the contacts between the Jin and Song Dynasties are another matter. How can they be related?"

"How about this!"

"If you Song people want me to go south to attack Wanyan Liang immediately after Wanyan Yong's uprising, then you Song people will not only continue to abide by the previous peace treaty, but this time Jin and Song will use the Yangtze River as their boundary!"

Wan Yanyong looked arrogant.

"You want our Song Dynasty and your Jin Kingdom to use the Yangtze River as the boundary?"

"Aren't you Jin Kingdom bullying people too much?"

"Our Song Dynasty's request is that the land in the Central Plains of our Song Dynasty that your Jin Kingdom invaded must be returned, including the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun!"

Ye Yiwen also understood that the Jin people were unreasonable, so he also made his own request.

"ridiculous!"

"The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun were captured by our Kingdom of Jin from the Liao people!"

"And the land in the Central Plains was personally dedicated to our Kingdom of Jin by your Song Dynasty Emperor Zhao Huan, and was later confirmed by your current emperor Zhao Gou. Why do you want our Kingdom of Jin to return these lands?"

Wan Yanyong said, pointing at Ye Yiwen with a fierce look on his face.

"Wan Yanyong, you really know how to burn bridges when crossing rivers!"

"I've finally seen it!"

"Let's not talk about this cooperation. When the time comes, I will go back and ask our Lord to surrender directly to Wanyan Liang. We will not fight this battle!"

Ye Yiwen naturally couldn't stand the anger anymore, so after saying that, he turned around and left.

Wanyanyong also ignored Ye Yiwen and began to plan his own uprising.

Early the next morning, Wanyanyong summoned all the officials in Tokyo on the pretext of investigating stolen goods, and then sent troops to arrest them all, including Gao Cunfu, who had informed Wanyanliang.

After a lot of killings, Wanyanyong eliminated all the officials in Tokyo who were unwilling to be loyal to him. Gao Cunfu was naturally tortured to death by Wanyanyong.

Later, Wanyan Yong, surrounded by a group of officials loyal to him, formally deposed the Emperor of Jin, and even ordered the deposing of the current emperor Wan Yanliang.

After all, Wan Yanliang had killed too many people and offended too many people. Wan Yanyong had accumulated a lot of prestige over the years.

For a time, countless tribes responded and supported Wan Yanyong, and the entire Jin Kingdom was in chaos.

Wanyan Yong, who had just proclaimed himself emperor for a few days, suddenly summoned Ye Yiwen, the Song envoy who had not yet left, alone again.

"I wonder why His Majesty the Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin summoned me, Ye Yiwen, for what reason?"

Of course Ye Yiwen knew that Wanyan Yong had proclaimed himself emperor, so he naturally changed his tune.

"What else can be done?"

"It's not what I discussed with you before, about demarcating the boundaries between Song and Jin after sending troops together to eliminate Wan Yan Liang!"

Wan Yanyong seemed to be very anxious this time.

"Yeah?"

"Could it be that His Majesty, the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom, is willing to agree with our Song Dynasty to use the Yanyun Sixteenth Prefecture as the boundary?"

Of course Ye Yiwen understood Wanyanyong's anxious thoughts.

Because Ye Yiwen heard about it, news came from the south a few days ago that Wan Yanliang was already preparing for a cross-river operation.

If Wan Yanliang really crossed the river and wiped out the Song Dynasty, it would definitely be something Wan Yanyong didn't want to see now, so Ye Yiwen seemed very calm this time.

"Outside the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun?"

"Are you dreaming?"

Wan Yanyong naturally couldn't accept this condition.

"Since your Jin Kingdom is not willing to return the Sixteen States and the entire Central Plains as a condition, then there is no need for us to talk!"

"Our Song Dynasty will be destroyed anyway, and there will be nothing worth cooperating with!"

"so be it!"

"I, Ye Yiwen, take my leave!"

After Ye Yiwen finished speaking, he turned around and left.

"slow!"

"Walk slowly!"

"Since you do not agree to use the Yangtze River as the boundary and insist on returning to the Yanyun Sixteenth Prefecture, we in the Jin Kingdom cannot accept the loss of the Yanyun Sixteenth Prefecture and Hebei!"

"Then let's do this!"

"I, Wanyan Yong, agree to send troops to work with you Song people to destroy my Dajin rebels, Wanyan Liang, and I will use the Yellow River as the boundary with you Song people!"

"how do you feel?"

Wanyanyong, of course, just wanted to cooperate with the Song people and get rid of Wanyanliang first, so he had to show his utmost sincerity.

"This... this is bounded by the Yellow River, so it's not impossible!"

"But His Majesty the Emperor of the Kingdom of Jin, you have to personally prepare a copy of your credentials and bring it back to me. If our Lord thinks it is feasible, we will naturally fight to the death with Wan Yanliang!"

"If our Lord feels that this is not feasible, then it is possible that Wan Yanliang heard that His Majesty the Emperor was revolting in Tokyo and proposed better cooperation conditions for our Lord. In that case, I, Ye Yiwen, may not be able to do anything about it.

I’ll help you again, Your Majesty!”

Ye Yiwen naturally guessed Wanyanyong's thoughts.

"What did you say?"

"Wan Yanliang will make peace with your Song emperor in private?"

"How can this be?"

In fact, Wanyanyong had already been worried about this in his heart.

"How is this impossible!"

"Don't you understand, Your Majesty, that Wan Yanliang has always admired our Han culture?"

"And now that Wan Yanliang has discovered that something happened behind him, his first choice is to come back and put an end to the chaos!"

"In order to keep his throne, Wan Yanliang did not hesitate to sacrifice some land of the Jin Kingdom. What does it mean?"

"Your Majesty, do you think the land is more important, or the throne?"

Ye Yiwen couldn't help asking.

"Of course the throne is important!"

Wanyanyong unconsciously felt a little worried at this time.

"Since Your Majesty also understands that the throne is more important than the land, then why is it not worth exchanging the land for your permanent throne?"

Ye Yiwen continued to figure out Wanyanyong's thoughts.

"Using the Yellow River as the boundary is already my biggest concession!"

"If you Song people are not satisfied with the Yellow River as the boundary, then I, Wanyan Yong, will no longer take the throne!"

"Anyway, I, Wan Yanyong, cannot sell all the land in the south to satisfy my own selfish interests!"

Wan Yanyong also showed his bottom line at this time.

"so be it!"

"You first have someone draw up your credentials, and I'll take them back to our Lord to make a decision!"

Ye Yiwen had already begun to secretly rejoice at this time.

After all, his mission was finally successful, and he even prepared for the Song Dynasty to return to the Guanzhong and Bianjing lands south of the Yellow River in the future.
