Chapter 102: Political Disputes Are Normal
Back in the Hall of Civilization, Liu Zhiyuan saw Su Yuju, the waiter of the Chinese book, greeted him, and on the face that looked very gentle, he couldn't hold back his smile, as if there was something happy.
"Your Majesty, there is news from Tokyo, that Hu Chief Xiao Han led Henan Hu General Fan to ride, saddle his treasure and goods north, and return to China!"
Hearing this, Liu Zhiyuan was slightly surprised, only to see Su Yuqi smile on his face, and licked his mouth: "It must be that Chief Hu learned that His Majesty's soldiers had arrived in Xijing, and he was afraid of His Majesty's military might, and the news of the battle of Luancheng spread all over the world, and he was even more panicked, and he knew that he couldn't stop it, so he hurriedly fled north." ”
Su Yuqi obviously made up a lot of details in his mind, but Liu Zhiyuan didn't have many surprises, his focus was obviously not on Xiao Han, he only pondered a little, and asked: "Hu Lu is gone, who is in charge of Tokyo now?" What about Li Congyi? ”
Liu Zhiyuan's tone revealed naked jealousy.
Li Congyi is the youngest son of Li Siyuan of the Later Tang Mingzong, and was named King Xu and Duke Xun Guogong, a weak young man, one year younger than Liu Chengyou. Originally, he had been guarding the mausoleum in Luoyang, living a small life with his adoptive mother, and after Yelu Deguang retreated to the north, he was detained by Xiao Han to send a cavalry to Tokyo, so that he knew the military affairs of the Southern Dynasties.
Not long ago, at the behest of Yelu Deguang, he was appointed emperor and reinstated the Tang Kingdom, intending to follow the example of the Later Jin Dynasty, rule the Han Dynasty with the Han Dynasty, stabilize the hearts of the people, and at the same time, confront Liu Zhiyuan and intensify the internal friction in the Central Plains.
It's a pity that a few days later, the news of the death of Emperor Liao and the defeat of Luancheng came one after another, and the drastic changes occurred. Because the time between the death of Yelu Deguang and the battle of Luancheng was too close, when it spread, it gradually evolved into Liu Chengyou leading the army to raid the Liao camp, defeating it, and beheading the Liao Emperor.
In such a situation, Xiao Han couldn't sit still at all, especially after Liu Zhiyuan's troops entered Luoyang and sharpened his sword in hope of Kaifeng. In his own hurry, he received an order for Yelu Ruan to retreat completely.
Xiao Han and Yelu Ruan were political enemies, but after seeing the envoy, they felt that this person was much more cordial for the first time, and they didn't care about the tone of the order, so they led the people to retreat north. For the Central Plains, he no longer dares to have nostalgia.
Hearing the fear in Liu Zhiyuan's tone, Su Yuqi immediately said with a relaxed face: "Your Majesty, since Rong Di is in a hurry to go north, then you will come to Tokyo, and there will be no hindrance." As for King Xu, he is just a child, an orphan and a widow, and he is a puppet ordained by the Khitans, which is not enough, as long as His Majesty is lucky, he will raise the city to dedicate it! ”
After listening to Su Yuyuan's words, Liu Zhiyuan's face looked much better, he grinned and thought about it, and let out a sigh with a smile. Su Yuqi's words are naturally reasonable, a Li Congyi is nothing, not to mention, he is still the clan of the Later Tang Dynasty, and there is a gap between them, if the Khitan elects a Later Jin clan, then it has to be noted.
Probably seeing Su Yuqi currying favor in front of Liu Zhiyuan, Su Fengji, who did not speak on the side, had a gloomy expression, rolled his eyes, stepped forward, and said softly: "Your Majesty, according to what the ministers have heard, Li Congyi is based on the Chongyuan Palace, and the ministers are all seen, and the civil and military bows their heads." Hu Lu returned to the north, and his relatives led the civil and military forces in the northern suburbs. There is also Yan General Liu Zuo as the commander of the guards, commanding troops to inspect Tokyo, repair armor, and rebuild the city! ”
When Su Fengji said this, he paid attention to Liu Zhiyuan's expression, saw that his expression turned yin, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but have a faint smile, and continued: "The minister also heard that the Khitan people hyped up King Xu as the emperor and inherited Tang Zuo, and the people of Tokyo were safe for a while. When Xiao Han's brigade went north, the Central Plains Righteous Army ceased to be chaotic and did not hinder it, and let it leave......"
Halfway through his words, Liu Zhiyuan's blackened face seemed to be shrouded in something called "evil qi", he waved his sleeves coldly, and gave a short and powerful order: "Under the system, let Shi Hongzhao send troops to Tokyo!" But there are those who don't know the number of days, and those who oppose the king's command, kill! ”
"Yes!" Su Fengji lowered his eyebrows and responded positively.
After listening to the conversation between the two, Su Yuqi looked at Su Fengji, who had been smiling at the corner of his mouth, a little terrified. But seeing that Liu Zhiyuan, who looked wrong, was shorter again, he cautiously changed the topic and asked: "Your Majesty, regarding the southward migration of the concubines, palace people, and officials from Taiyuan, you still need to be judged." ”
At the mention of this, Liu Zhiyuan really diverted his attention, and almost without thinking, he waved his hand and ordered: "It's time, let Taiyuan prepare the relocation matters, and let Wude make Li Hui responsible for protecting the queen and the ministers of the palace to come south!" ”
As soon as he finished dealing with two things, an attendant entered the hall and whispered in Liu Zhiyuan's ear excitedly. Seeing Liu Zhiyuan's eyes lit up, he regained his smile: "My brother is here." ”
Murong Yanchao, Liu Zhiyuan's half-brother, was previously killed in a crime, was rescued by Liu Zhiyuan's words, and was exiled to Fangzhou.
"Fengji, you just spoke in front of Your Majesty, you want to kill King Xu!" After Ersu stepped back, he communicated in a whisper, and Su Yuqi's eyebrows were a little worried.
"Xianggong, don't say it so ugly!" Su Fengji glanced at Su Yuqi, but said slowly: "The Central Plains already has His Majesty as the king, how can there be another son who usurps the throne." ”
Hearing this, Su Yuqi showed a little emotion of a good man: "He is just a puppet set up by the Khitans, where is there any threat to His Majesty?" ”
"After all, Li Congyi is a former Tang prince, his identity is sensitive, and in this sensitive situation, sitting in a position where he shouldn't be sitting, he can only blame him for his bad luck!" Su Fengji showed a smile: "You and I, as courtiers, should speak up and eliminate all disasters for Your Majesty!" ”
Frowning, Su Yuqi said: "King Xu is not guilty after all, if he is killed, he is only afraid that the people of the country will pity him and provoke criticism!" ”
Hearing this, Su Fengji's expression immediately turned cold, and he said in a calm tone: "If someone has mercy on him, then he has to get rid of it!" ”
said, looking at Su Yuqi with a cold gaze: "Xianggong, you are Your Majesty's courtier, how can you excuse Li Congyi so much?" You have to be careful, lest your majesty misunderstand your intentions......"
Hearing Su Fengji say this, Su Yuqi couldn't help but shudder, swept Su Fengji's face with a smile, and scolded in his heart, this person is ruthless, what are you doing with this mouth in front of him. hurriedly snorted, and naturally diverted the topic.
Falling behind, looking at Su Yuji walking towards the office with his old legs, Su Fengji smiled disdainfully. During this period of time, there was no Yang Wei and Wang Zhang pressing on their heads, and Er Su became the minister that Liu Zhiyuan relied on, and as the situation gradually became clear, Su Yuqi, who had always been very low-key, had a strong sense of existence, and faintly had the meaning of competing for favor with Su Fengji.
