"You two shouldn't talk nonsense,"
"Do everything according to my words."
The three arrived at a side hall of the palace.
That was also where Wen Huanzhang handled official business.
Upon arrival,
The three then discovered that Zhao Yuan was also there.
They hurriedly bowed and knelt in worship.
"Envoy of the Great Goryeo Kingdom, xx,"
"Greetings to the Emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty!"
The three of them knelt down in unison.
Li Ziliang and Quan Tong spoke Mandarin.
Moreover, it belongs to the standard Kaifeng dialect.
Li Yong could understand the explanations but wasn't very good at speaking them.
They were still speaking Korean.
"Flat body, give me a seat."
Zhao Yuan nodded slightly.
After the three of them stood up,
Quan Tong suddenly adopted the rites of a disciple.
"Student Quan Tong greets teacher!"
This was quite unexpected for Zhao Yuan, who asked...
"How did you become my student?"
Quan Tong explained, "Sir, you were once the Imperial Academy Instructor of the former Song Dynasty."
"At that time, the students studied in the upper dormitory of the Imperial Academy."
"sit down."
Zhao Yuan remained noncommittal.
The attitude seemed ambiguous.
After Li Ziliang sat down
Immediately state the basic situation.
"Because they were unaware of the founding of the Ming Dynasty,"
"We were acting on the orders of the King,"
"They came to contact the former Song dynasty to resist the Jin dynasty."
"I don't know why, but I was placed under house arrest in Minnesota for a whole year."
"After the Ming army captured Mingzhou,"
"We haven't even had a chance to return to Goryeo yet,"
He then hurriedly came to Bianliang to pay his respects.
"On behalf of our sovereign, we offer our congratulations to the Emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty on the founding of his dynasty,"
May the dynasty enjoy its rule for ten thousand years.
"As for state gifts, we will definitely present them on our next visit."
"Please also convey my greetings to the King of Goryeo."
Zhao Yuan nodded and smiled.
Li Ziliang said, "Our Goryeo and the Jin Dynasty were originally father and son."
"Goryeo is the father, and the Jin Dynasty is the son."
"Who would have thought those barbarians from the Jin Kingdom,"
"They've become so arrogant and overbearing after gaining power,"
"Forcing my lord to submit and obey,"
"They also forced our country to hand over Baozhou (Baozhou)."
"Baozhou is an integral part of Goryeo's territory,"
"Is my lord a ruler who cedes territory for personal gain?"
"Thereupon, they came to request that China send troops."
"Let's launch a pincer attack on the Jin Kingdom next year!"
That's half true and half false.
They were simply trying to fool Zhao Yuan.
The ownership of Baoding is a mess.
It's impossible to explain in just a few words.
During the Tang Dynasty,
It wasn't called Goryeo back then.
They took advantage of the collapse of Goguryeo...
Expanding northward continuously
By the Five Dynasties period, it had spread north of the Daedong River.
Then came the rise of the Liao Dynasty.
Both sides wanted to eliminate the Bohai Kingdom.
They even had a honeymoon period for a few years.
Because the Liao Dynasty annexed the Bohai Kingdom
Goryeo didn't gain much benefit.
Enraged, he started acting like a teddy bear.
Goryeo was incapable of fighting against the Liao Dynasty.
More than thirty envoys from the Liao Dynasty were brought here.
They were exiled to an island and all starved to death.
This is absolutely outrageous.
It's not good for me.
On the contrary, it would anger the Liao Kingdom.
And it seemed particularly rude.
Once the Liao Kingdom has freed up its resources...
They then dispatched an army of 800,000 to attack Goryeo.
Goryeo immediately backed down.
Quickly submit a memorial to acknowledge your submission.
Some problems also arose within the Liao Kingdom.
Eager to recall the frontline troops,
Seeing that Goryeo was willing to submit to them,
Therefore, they granted Goryeo several hundred miles of land east of the Yalu River (i.e., Baozhou).
Furthermore, it ordered Goryeo to immediately sever diplomatic relations with Song.
Goryeo actually benefited but still wouldn't stop.
They secretly spent money to incite the Jurchens to rebel.
This led to the Liao Dynasty's "Three Campaigns Against Goguryeo".
Although countless soldiers and generals were lost.
However, they also reclaimed the land in Baozhou.
Later, the Jin dynasty joined forces with Goryeo to attack the Liao dynasty.
Jin agreed to allow Goryeo to occupy Baozhou.
However, the Jin Dynasty was also notorious for going back on its word.
Aguda directly occupied Baozhou.
Let Goryeo bring its troops to take it.
Goryeo did not have the courage to send troops.
But he has a cunning mind.
Goryeo verbally agreed to submit to Jin.
The Jin state readily granted Baozhou to them.
However, he later tried to outsmart the official address he used.
The Jin dynasty was furious and mobilized its troops to attack.
Goryeo decisively admitted defeat and called him "Dad".
Therefore, although Baozhou was actually occupied by Goryeo,
However, it was never an integral part of Goryeo's territory.
The last time they had Baozhou,
It was a gift from the Liao Dynasty.
This time, with Baozhou,
It was a gift from the Jin Dynasty.
And all of these came at the cost of submitting to the emperor!
However, the Goryeo king and his ministers felt very wronged.
They believed that Boju should be part of Goryeo territory.
They actually secretly came to contact the Song Dynasty to attack the Jin Dynasty.
Even a child could guess.
Once the Ming Dynasty attacks the Jin Dynasty...
Goryeo will inevitably choose to wait and see.
The Ming Dynasty successfully conquered the Jin Dynasty.
Goryeo took the opportunity to expand northward.
The Ming Dynasty's campaign against the Jin Dynasty failed.
Goryeo continued to back down.
They resolutely denied having any dealings with the Ming Dynasty.
Chapter 1826 Shameless Goryeo
Zhao Yuan didn't care whether these guys were lying or not.
They put on an act of shared hatred and indignation.
