The vast grassland is bright at night, and the bright moonlight shines down like the Milky Way, giving people a very broad vision.
The sky was dotted with stars. Yelu Zongzhen, slightly tipsy, sat on a small hill, holding his wine glass. He raised his head slightly to gaze at the northwest night sky and unconsciously said, "How vast is the night sky?"
Li Yuanhao, who was also slightly tipsy, smiled and replied, "Even though it is vast, people still have their own opinions. Days and months pass by like a journey. How can we have a quick dinner and talk about his life?"
"oh?"
Yelu Zongzhen looked at him in surprise, then burst into laughter: "I didn't expect that King Xia also likes Han poetry."
"I naturally like Mr. Wu Liu's poems. Besides, the Song people have been selling books to my Xia country for years. I am very annoyed by this, but I cannot stop it."
Li Yuanhao shook his head.
They opened border markets with the Song Dynasty and neither side was allowed to prohibit trade, which put them in a situation of both pain and happiness.
The good news is that the Song Dynasty has no purchase restrictions or sales bans, so they can buy as much tea, ironware and even military books as they need.
The painful thing was that the Song Dynasty was too big, and all kinds of goods were sold to Western Xia, but they could only sell very little, resulting in extremely unequal trade between the two sides.
If Xixia earns 10 million guan from the Song Dynasty this year, they can then extract 20 million guan from you. Even if Xixia has financial support from merchants from the Western Regions, it will still suffer in the end if this continues.
"It's also good to read more books written by Han people. Their Buddhist teachings are profound. I really like Han Buddhist scriptures."
Yelu Zongzhen smiled. He did not oppose the Confucianization of the country.
As he spoke, he looked at Li Yuanhao again, feeling a sense of sympathy, and said, "Speaking of which, King Xia and I have known each other for a long time, but this is the first time we have met."
"Your Majesty is a man of great character, and I admire him."
Li Yuanhao replied.
He thought Yelu Zongzhen was talking about his appearance.
However, Yelu Zongzhen said, "After this, I don't think it will be easy to meet again in the future. I just feel a little sad. King Xia and I hit it off right away, but now we are separated by thousands of miles. I don't know when we can drink and talk like we did today."
As he spoke, he looked into the distant starry sky.
Li Yuanhao was slightly stunned. He was a vicious person who never cared about family and friendship. It was difficult for someone to speak to him so sincerely.
So after a brief silence, he also looked up at the starry sky and said lightly: "When the Song Dynasty falls, I will drink and chat with Your Majesty again!"
But by then, the atmosphere might not be the same as it is today.
