Chapter 173: Changes in the Great Liao Palace (2)

The three of them were headed by Yang Youxuan, and at this time Yang Youxuan said: "Niangniang, now it's the first strike, I'll go to the palace to divide the army and find the Dutong Xiao Yuanzheng first, after all, he is Niangniang's mother's family, and now he only lives under the detailed and stable Yeluye; But Yeluye is a member of the royal family, and he will definitely support the crown prince, but there is a premise, that is, the emperor will be unconscious for a long time or dying of illness.

Therefore, for the sake of safety, let Xiao Dutong come to protect the emperor's thoughtfulness first, in case people with ulterior motives take advantage of the chaos, especially Zhang Jian, Liu Shenxing and others, they have many members of the party and have quite prestige in the palace army, so it is even more necessary to take strict precautions, and it is best to detain them first to prevent changes. ”

Xiao Pidi said: "I am now rushing to the emperor's palace with Niangniang, and now the situation is unknown, so I can only quickly go to control the situation; Now Niangniang will also call the crown prince, so that we will be righteous in our hands and famous teachers, so that the ministers will be convinced and will not rise to rebelliousness. ”

Yang Youxuan added: "Regarding Zheng Shaoyin, I will write a secret letter now, and then you will take the letter and go to contact some ministers who have always been close to us and have good friends, so that they can support the recital of the crown prince and the country. ”

He said to Xiao Yunjin again: "Niangniang should also contact some close ministers to raise the flag for the crown prince and the country." ”

Xiao Yunjin wrote a secret letter at this time, and then handed it to a few henchmen and servants, asking them to contact their henchmen and cronies overnight; For a while, the dark tide was already surging in the camp of Emperor Liao, and a storm that forced the palace was brewing and gathering...

Zhang Jianzheng and Yelu Ye were in Yelu Longxu's palace, and they saw Ye Lu Ye and said: "Your Majesty, now the palace army is only 8,000 people, and now it is divided into two factions, one can be said to be the royalist faction, and the other is the strength of the concubine's secret cultivation, represented by the capital commander Xiao Yuanzheng, and now the commander of the palace army, Yelu Zhilu Gon, is not in the camp, and Weichen has not been in the palace army for a long time, and can only control half of the strength of the palace army; Therefore, the emperor must take precautions as soon as possible, so as not to be forced into the palace. ”

Zhang Jian also said: "Now Yang Youxuan and Concubine Liang have taken the lead, and they have begun to instigate her to let the prince supervise the country and let him listen to the government." ”

At this time, I saw a man in black hurriedly breaking in from the outside, and he sang: "Please atone for the emperor's sins, now the situation outside is urgent, please forgive your subordinates for the sin of not telling them; Now that the palace division has been mobilized, a large group of people and horses have rushed to the direction of the emperor's palace. ”

Yelu Longxu was shocked when he heard this, and at this moment Zhang Jian hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this time Yelu has transferred four thousand palace soldiers, and now he has fully taken over the defense posts inside and outside your palace, so please rest assured, your subordinates will definitely protect you to the death." ”

When Yelu Longxu heard this, he stabilized his mind a little; But seeing that he was still fighting his spirits, he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, and he was walking around in the big tent at this time, looking uneasy.

At this time, he could only hear the noise outside, as if someone was shouting and neighing, and gradually approached the palace, and he hurriedly went out of the big tent to see what was going on.

He saw that the lights outside the palace were bright, and there were large groups of men and horses marching towards him with torches held high, like a winding fire dragon; He clearly saw a phoenix in front of him, which was clearly Concubine Liang's car, and he had given Concubine Liang the same treatment as the queen's guard of honor before.

At this time, Xiao Yunjin was at the front of Xiao Yuanzheng's team, and behind him were his cronies and henchmen who followed all the way.

His heart suddenly sank to the bottom, Yeluye saw that the emperor was depressed at the moment, so he hurriedly cheered him up, and Zhang Jian also tried his best to comfort him.

At this time, the palace army was all in the ranks and said demagoguously: "Now the emperor is old, and now he is unconscious, and he can no longer handle political affairs, at this time, my elite division of Daliao has been defeated by the Great Song army, and the Song army has taken advantage of the situation to capture Zhuozhou, and now it threatens the safety of the palace at any time, and the situation is already critical; According to this kind of crisis, I can't be left without an owner for a day, so it's better to support the prince and the country now! ”

After everyone heard this, they all agreed with this opinion, so they launched the official department Shangshu, the governor and privy envoy Yang Youxuan, and first told this opinion to the good concubine Xiao Yunjin and the crown prince Yelu Zongzhen.

Yang Youxuan arrived at Xiao Yunjin and the prince, and as soon as he finished speaking, the generals had already broken in, showed their bright knives, and shouted: "We have already discussed it, and we must invite the eunuch to supervise the country." ”

When Xiao Yunjin and his henchmen heard this, they were secretly happy, and told everyone to calm the morale of the army and not cause chaos; But the prince was still young and ignorant, and he looked at a panic.

Yang Youxuan hurriedly sent people to the emperor's palace to control the situation as soon as possible; It didn't take long for the news to spread throughout the barracks.

The soldiers all got up, and Xiao Yuanzheng and his ilk flocked to the big tent where the prince lived, and then they crowded Xiao Yunjin and the prince to the emperor's palace.

During the period, Yang Youxuan said: "Now in order to deal with the crisis, I have to ask the prince to supervise the country, in order to determine the heart of the army, the hearts of the ministers, and the hearts of the people, but the prince is young and cannot handle political affairs, so it is better to follow the example of "inheriting the emperor and the queen mother". ”

Xiao Yunjin was overjoyed when she heard this, and before she could speak, she saw everyone in front of her kneeling on the ground and kowtowing a few times, and then shouted, "Respectfully invite the prince to supervise the country, respectfully invite the mother to listen to the government, and save Daliao from danger." ”

At this time, Xiao Yunjin came out of the phoenix, and then said: "Since you respectfully ask the prince to supervise the country and let the palace hang the curtain to listen to the government, then can you all obey the orders of the palace?" ”

The soldiers under Xiao Yuanzheng's command replied in unison: "Naturally, obey the will of the prince and Niangniang. ”

Xiao Yunjin issued an order: "You can go to the emperor's camp to protect the emperor's thoughtfulness, so as to prevent the emperor from taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble during the emperor's coma; It is not allowed to infringe on the ministers of the court who are interested in the crown prince, it is not allowed to loot and plunder, and there will be a heavy reward for the execution of the order, otherwise it will be dealt with strictly. ”

At this time, she gave an order, and the army rushed to the emperor's palace, and as soon as she arrived at the position of the Chinese army, she was stopped by Yeluye and his army, and the armies of the two sides were evenly matched, and they immediately stalemate.

At this time, Xiao Yunjin scolded Yeluye: "Yeluye, what do you mean, why did you stop us from going to the emperor's palace, did you want to rebel?" Now the emperor is in a coma and cannot be a director; Now all the soldiers support the establishment of the crown prince to supervise the country, in order to save the Great Liao from being in danger, to prevent the Great Liao from hanging upside down, and the country will be no longer a country. ”

At this time, an old but firm voice sounded: "Concubine Liangniang, how did you know that the emperor was in a coma, you are mistaken, the emperor is very good now, and the prince does not have to supervise the country." ”

When Xiao Yunjin heard the voice, she saw that it was Zhang Jian, an old horseman, and when she saw the puzzled eyes of her soldiers, she was suddenly a little angry.

She said: "The emperor is obviously in a coma, this is Gao..., figure it out, why do you want to reverse black and white, what is your intention?" ”

Zhang Jian glanced at Gao Qiyi, the eunuch with palm prints beside him, and saw that his face was pale, trembling, and he had a shocked expression, he already knew that he had colluded with Concubine Liang and reported to him, which had been exposed, and he was worried about his life at any time.

Zhang Jian said without humility or arrogance at this time: "Concubine Liangniang, it's too early to say that I have reversed black and white, who has the heart of disobedience, and it will soon be clear." ”

At this time, I saw that the door of the emperor's palace was opened, and I saw a person coming out of it, and when I looked at it, this person was very majestic, wrapped in a five-clawed golden dragon python robe, only showing the dragon pattern bearskin golden boots, and his arms were hanging down under his knees, not angry and arrogant.

I saw the dragon face of the son of heaven, majestic! Under the purple gold crown, a pair of bright eyes, the eyes are even more cold and sharp, and the cold makes people dare not look at each other; The ears are thick and hung on both sides of the dragon's head, showing the blessing of the emperor! The dragon's whiskers trembled slightly, showing a little more majesty.

This person is the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, at this time he is full of anger, at this time he has seen Xiao Yunjin's conspiracy clearly, and he has seen the ugly face of Yang Youxuan and others, he now knows that Da Liao has entered a precarious state, if he wants to maintain stability, he can't wipe out these people.

He opened his mouth and said: "You are worried about the safety of Da Liao, and your feelings are commendable; Now that I am in good health, I don't want to worry about the ministers and soldiers, you all disperse, now Daliao is in an eventful autumn, you must stick to your post, so as not to give the Great Song Dynasty a chance. ”

At this time, Xiao Yunjin said a little disrespectfully: "Your Majesty, don't pretend to be fine, the concubines know that your body is already weak; You have a good rest, the prince will be in charge of the country, and your ministers will be able to assist the prince; When you are well, it is not too late to come back to the court to listen to the government! ”

At this time, Zhang Jian immediately reprimanded angrily: "Xiao Yunjin, don't be arrogant, how can you be so rude to the emperor, is there still an emperor in your eyes, if you want to do something arrogant?" Do you still want to learn the courtier system after martial arts, "Ji Si Chen"? ”

He suddenly said that Xiao Yunjin's face was red, and he was speechless for a while, and his momentum suddenly decreased.

Then he saw an arrow shoot at him violently, and he was about to kill him on the spot, when he saw an arrow suddenly shot from one side, and immediately the two arrows fell into the dust.

Then I saw a capable and strong man stand up, holding a great bow and a dark gray robe, which almost blended into the night, and could not be seen unless he looked closely; At this time, more than a dozen people dressed up in the same costume as this man came out one after another, and they surrounded the Liao Emperor, with a posture of a tiger standing on a dragon plate, and they rose up at any time to respond to the enemy, and chose people to devour.

At this time, Xiao Yunjin and Yang Youxuan shouted in fear: "It's the Shadow Guard!" ”

When their soldiers and horses heard this, they immediately burst into an uproar, and the crowd in front of them immediately retreated rapidly, only retreating more than 20 zhang away, and a huge empty field was suddenly formed between the two armies.

Xiao Yunjin's face gradually turned pale, and he had a bad idea in his heart: he was not careful about his plan, and the emperor woke up again; I am now ready to send an arrow; Even if he begged for mercy now, he would not be spared; may be deposed from the position of concubine, and it is very likely that she will be given death.

She felt that it was better to give it a go, and seek wealth and danger, anyway, the strength of the two sides was similar, and her own side had a greater advantage, and it was unknown who would kill the deer.
