Chapter 221: Jerod Light 2
Liao Taizong Yelu Deguang not only has the ability to dominate the world's powerful iron cavalry, but also takes the initiative to change the Xia to obey the Chinese civilization, and also said that he wants to save the people of the world and be interested in the peace of Datong, he is fully qualified and possible to sit firmly as the emperor of the Central Plains.

This was the case with the Tuoba clan of the Northern Wei Dynasty before, and the same was true of the later Mengyuan and Qing dynasties, not to mention that the Later Tang, Later Jin and Later Han of the Five Dynasties were all dynasties established by the Turkic Shatuo people, so they were called the three dynasties of Shatuo. Since Sha Tuo can be the lord of the Central Plains, why can't Yanhuang's descendant, Yelu Deguang, the emperor of the Great Khitan Kingdom?
Therefore, when Yelu Deguang entered Kaifeng, Feng Dao said to him: "At this time, the people of the world, the Buddha can't be saved again, only the emperor can be saved." β
Other ministers also repeatedly said to Yelu Deguang: "There are no two days in the sky, and there is no heart for Yixia, and they are all willing to promote the emperor." β
When Yelu Deguang recruited the Jiedu envoys from all over the country to express his position, most of the Jiedu envoys of the feudal towns and towns, although they had their own troops and horses, they also entered Beijing on Pegasus, and rushed to Yelu Deguang to pay tribute to them. Datong's Taiping banner undoubtedly has a strong appeal.
It is a pity that the situation of the Fan Han family, which has been initially realized in the Yanyun area, envisioned by Yelu Deguang, did not appear in the Central Plains as scheduled. After a honeymoon period of just one or two months, the Central Plains was soon full of smoke, and the popular riots expelling the Khitans intensified one after another.
Faced with the urgent documents flying like snowflakes, Yelu Deguang said with annoyance: "I didn't expect the people of the Central Plains to be so difficult to govern?"
The emergence of this chaotic situation, the missteps of Yelu Deguang himself, and the ferocity and arrogance of the Liao army in claiming to be an occupying army are undoubtedly the real leading factors. Yelu Deguang finally came to his senses when he retreated, and he concluded: "I made three mistakes in this trip, one is to connive at the soldiers to plunder grain and grass, the second is to loot the private property of the citizens, and the third is not to return the town early to the envoys. I have these three shortcomings, and it is very appropriate that the people of the Central Plains betray me. β
In addition to the three losses, objectively speaking, the lack of understanding between the Khitan and the people of the Central Plains also played a role in fueling the intensification of contradictions between the two sides. Yelu Deguang himself once said to the ministers of the Later Jin Dynasty: "The Central Plains don't know anything about the Khitan, but I know the situation in the Central Plains well." β
As a matter of fact, it is true that the people of the Central Plains know very little about the affairs of the Khitans, but the Khitan's understanding of the Central Plains mainly comes from hearsay, and how much can they really know? As everyone knows, even the establishment of a harmonious relationship between two ordinary people still takes a long time to understand each other and get along with each other, and of course it is necessary to adjust to each other, not to mention the two fraternal nationalities that have clashed with each other? The understanding between the two sides will undoubtedly take more time.
Time is not on the side of Yelu Deguang, the summer of that year seems to come very early, Kaifeng City in March is already the scorching sun, Yelu Deguang and Khitan soldiers are from the northeast after years of ice and snow, accustomed to the cold climate, really can not bear the heat, can only be forced to return north.
On the first day of the fourth month, Yelu Deguang left Kaifeng. On the way back to the north, he was still ambitious, and in a letter to his brother, he confidently said: "As long as you give me another year, it will not be difficult to know that peace will be achieved." β
On the thirteenth day of the same month, Yelu Deguang became seriously ill due to heat stroke, and died of illness in Luancheng on the 22nd. At this time, it was only one hundred and twelve days since he entered Kaifeng, and it was only eighty-two days since he became emperor in Kaifeng.
Jerod's ambition was unfulfilled, and his dream of great harmony was shattered after only eighty-two days. After all, Liao Taizong failed to become the co-master of the world of Hua and Yi like Tang Taizong, which is undoubtedly his personal tragedy. After the death of Liao Taizong, the Khitan returned to the grassland-based policy for most of the time, and no longer took the initiative to go south to the Central Plains on a large scale, let alone the ambition of unifying China and Yi, and even his Great Liao State was changed back to the Great Khitan State.
Even Xiao Yanyan, the Empress Dowager Xiao of the Great Khitan Kingdom, who is famous in history, although she swung her army south to the city of Shanzhou on the north bank of the Yellow River, only a river away from Kaifeng City, her goal was still just to force peace by war. Whether this is a blessing or a curse for the direction of history since then? I am afraid that it is difficult to judge. If Yelu Deguang really realized the unification of Hua and Yi led by the Great Liao, is it very likely that the chaos of the Later Han Dynasty and the tragic war between the Northern Song Dynasty and the Khitan will be avoided?
Mummification, which has been rumored to be an Egyptian technique in ancient times, was mummified by the pharaohs of Egypt and buried in the pyramids. However, in addition to Egypt, in Chinese history, there are mummies, and what is even more peculiar is that this mummy is an emperor of ancient China, that is, Yelu Deguang, Taizong of Liao.
At the age of twenty-five, Yelu Deguang became the second emperor of the Liao State, when the Central Plains was in a chaotic period of five dynasties and ten kingdoms, and the people were struggling to survive. Yerod recuperated and dreamed of annexing the Central Plains.
Nine years later, the opportunity finally came, and the forty-four-year-old traitor Shi Jingjiao, in order to replace the Later Tang Dynasty, ceded the sixteen states of Youyun, 300,000 horses of silk, and recognized the thirty-four-year-old Yelu Deguang as his father, in exchange for Yelu Deguang sending troops to help him destroy the Later Tang Dynasty and establish the Later Jin Dynasty.
After Shi Jingtang's death, his nephew Shi Chonggui succeeded to the throne and asked Yelu Deguang to call Sun not a minister, Yelu Deguang was furious, and used this as an excuse to send troops south to invade the Central Plains, and soon destroyed the Later Jin. However, the people of the Central Plains did not give in, and all kinds of armed forces resisted the Khitan invaders, and small groups of Liao soldiers were constantly annihilated, so that YelΓΌ Deguang did not expect the Chinese to be so difficult to control, and had to order a retreat.
Forty-five-year-old Yelu Deguang contracted a fever on the way to evacuate the Central Plains, and the imperial doctor told him to stay away from the beautiful woman, but he scolded the imperial doctor: "You are all unlearned, I have a fever, and I am about to vent the fire, how can I stay away from the beautiful woman?"
In the end, because of the excess, when he went to Luancheng to kill Hu Lin, he spat blood in his mouth and whimpered for his life. At this time, far away in Shangjing, the capital of Liao, the Empress Dowager Shulu, who had been reported to Yelu Deguang to be critically ill, sent a decree: "You must see people in life, and you must see corpses in death." "This stumped the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs who accompanied him, it was a hot summer, and it was not easy to save the body.
When the ministers of civil and military affairs and the imperial doctors were helpless, an imperial chef came up with an idea: "Just make the emperor into a soup." β
Originally, the nomadic people in the north liked to eat beef and mutton, and sometimes after killing a cow or sheep, they could not eat it for a while, and in summer, the herdsmen would hollow out the internal organs of the cattle and sheep and marinate them with salt, so that they would become a non-rotten bacon, which was equivalent to bacon in the Central Plains.
As soon as this idea came out, although there was a meaning to treat the emperor as a livestock, but in desperation, the ministers of civil and military affairs and the imperial doctors had no choice but to follow the advice of the cook, but since it was made of the emperor's corpse, it was not an ordinary ηΎΎ, but an emperor ηΎ, the only mummy emperor in Chinese history.
Gaozu of the Later Han Dynasty began to recover the Central Plains after the Liao army returned north, and after Xiao Han learned the news, he kidnapped Li Congyi of the Later Tang Dynasty and proclaimed himself emperor in Kaifeng, and then returned north. Later Han Gaozu heard that he sent an envoy to kill Li Congyiding in Kaifeng, and sent Gao Xingzhou and Murong Yanchao to surrender Du Chongwei in the Battle of Weizhou, and the towns were annexed one after another.
Li Sanniang is the queen of Liu Zhiyuan, the ancestor of the Later Han Dynasty, Li was born as a peasant daughter, and her marriage to Liu Zhiyuan is full of legends.
When Liu Zhiyuan was young, his family was poor and served as a horse slave, and he met the Li family in Jinyang Horse Husbandry, so he fell in love. Liu Zhiyuan asked Li's father to ask for marriage, but Li's father refused because of Liu's poverty, Liu Zhiyuan and Li had a private engagement for life, and Li was about eighteen years old when he gave birth to his son Liu Chengyou, and Liu Zhiyuan was eight years old Chinese New Year's Eve. After marriage, Liu Zhiyuan was promoted to the envoy of Hedong Festival with military merits, crowned the king of Beiping, and named Li as the wife of Wei.
Liu Zhiyuan raised troops in Taiyuan, because the military salary was insufficient, and he had to levy heavy taxes on the people. Li advised: "Today's uprising is called a righteous soldier, and the people don't know your favor but you take away their property first, which is not the will of the Son of Heaven to save the people. All of today's harem, please take it out, although it is not enough, but the people will not complain about you. β
In February of the same year, Liu Zhiyuan proclaimed himself emperor and made Li Sanniang the queen. The following year, Gaozu died, and Liu Chengyou succeeded to the throne as Emperor Yin, honoring Li as the empress dowager.
There is a Li family village in Pao Village, where a Li Yuanwai lives and has a pair of children, the son is named Li Hongxin, and the daughter is called Li Sanniang. Liu Zhiyuan, who was poor and begging for a living, fainted in front of Li Yuanwai's house in Pao Village, and fainted in front of Li Yuanwai's house.
After Liu Zhiyuan was taken in by Li Yuanwai, he quickly won the love of the Li Mansion because of his intelligence, diligence and ability. One night in the winter of this year, Li Sanniang, who had not slept in the embroidery building, suddenly found that her horse shed was shining red, which seemed to be on fire but did not look like it. Li Sanniang called Yahuan to take a look, and when she went to the stable, it turned out that the shed was not on fire, Liu Zhiyuan was sleeping in Zhengxiang, and a circle of red light shrouded him around. On Liu Zhiyuan's serene face, a snake the size of chopsticks was drilling through his left nostril and out of his right nostril.
Li Sanniang knew that he was not a mortal, and Liu Zhiyuan was usually smart and capable, Li Sanniang suddenly fell in love, but she was ashamed to say it. All this made Yahuan see it clearly, so with the help of Yahuan, Li Sanniang and Liu Zhiyuan made a private agreement for life when they were in the stable.
The night was short, and the rooster crowed three times in the blink of an eye, Sanniang hurriedly returned to the embroidery building, and met the second father and mother, explaining the reason. Li Yuanwai originally had a good impression of Liu Zhiyuan, and when he saw that his daughter's matter had come to this, he didn't blame him too much, and agreed to the marriage of the two. Who knew that Liu Zhiyuan was originally the Son of Heaven, and when he visited his father-in-law and mother-in-law and kowtowed, the second elder actually died in the yin.
Li Hongxin and his wife, who originally had a grudge against Liu Zhiyuan, saw that the second elder had passed away, and they were afraid that Li Sanniang would share the family property with him, so they insisted that Li Sanniang had a private contract for life and ruined the style, so they tried every means to kill Liu Zhiyuan and Li Sanniang and his wife, but because of family affection, they were afraid of falling into the name of injustice and injustice, so they drove Li Sanniang to the hemp nest to carry water and water the hemp, and drove Liu Zhiyuan to the melon field to plant melons.
Liu Zhiyuan planted melon fields in Guyang Zhai leading to Zheng and Mi in the mountains, where legend has it that there is a red monster from time to time, often haunting and harming people, no one dares to pass by there, people are not called cliffs. All the merchants and hawkers who went to Zheng and Mi made a detour.
On the night of the third day when Liu Zhiyuan arrived in the melon field, the red monster came out, only to see that it was all red, like a fire, coming forward. Liu Zhiyuan has a good martial arts, and he has also practiced good kung fu in Li Sanniang's house. He jumped and rode on the monster's back, running back and forth eighteen times, until the monster was so tired that it was sweating and full of blood. This place, later known as the Horse Trail, turned out to be the famous sweaty BMW.
After the BMW was tamed by Liu Zhiyuan, he was instructed by the immortals to dig three feet in the melon field, get three treasures of gold helmet, gold armor, silver gun, and bronze sword. Liu Zhiyuan acted accordingly, and sure enough, he got the treasure. So he tied the horse Guhuai at the southern foot of Jishan, cried goodbye to Li Sanniang and cried at night, got on the horse and went straight to Fenzhou. So far, there is a thousand-year-old acacia in Jishan, which is said to be Liu Zhiyuan's tethered acacia back then.
Pregnant in October, once delivered, late one night, Li Sanniang, who was grinding in the mill, suddenly had unbearable abdominal pain, Li Sanniang was afraid that her brother and sister-in-law would harm Jiao'er, and bit the umbilical cord with her mouth, known as biting the umbilical cord, called her hometown, and sent to Fenzhou overnight to find her father. The navel biting Lang was the later Emperor Ying, who was later killed by Guo Wei and was buried in Yingling. Poor Li Sanniang was forced by her brother and sister-in-law to carry water and water hemp during the day, and grind and grind noodles at night, suffering from the suffering of the world.
Once Li Sanniang was carrying water and watering hemp, and suddenly two black tigers came out of Qiaolong Mountain, which frightened Li Sanniang's soul and left the barrel to escape. But the two black tigers didn't mean to harm Li Sanniang at all, so they went straight to the bucket, lay down and curled up, so that the water in the bucket didn't spill at all. Later, Li Sanniang built a tiger temple at the eastern foot of Qiaolong Mountain to commemorate the two black tigers, and received incense in the world.
Li Sanniang poured hemp during the day and grinded at night, and it was sixteen years to suffer a crime, and at this time Liu Zhiyuan had already made a fortune, and she didn't know it at all. Because of the perennial water in the river walking, even the stones in the river were stepped on by Li Sanniang, Guo Wei called the emperor, established the Northern Zhou Dynasty, respected Li Sanniang as the queen mother, died at the age of about forty-two.
