The Khitan people worship the strong, this is the grassland characteristics integrated into their bones, the winner is the king, the loser is the coward, since it is the battlefield of the two emperors, there will be losses and wins, in fact, compared to the Great Song Dynasty, the Liao Dynasty's ability to withstand is stronger.

When the Great Song Dynasty sent the intact body of Yelu Zongzhen back to the Liao Dynasty respectfully, the Liao people wiped away their tears and continued their lives tomorrow, Zhou Zhan didn't dare to imagine what the result would be if the two were reversed, and whether the Great Song Dynasty could afford the grief and despair of the death of the Son of Heaven.

The current Liao Dynasty, the young emperor succeeded to the throne, and the queen mother supervised the country, which should have been a turbulent situation in the imperial court, but the emperor and the queen mother of the Liao Dynasty still hunted and hunted in accordance with the law of their ancestors, and the emperor and the queen mother were still filial piety to the mother and son, full of hope for the future, which even Zhou Zhan, a foreign minister, could see.

In them, Song Xiaoyi and Zhou Zhan did not see despair, nor sadness, perhaps thanks to their strong psychological endurance, or the nature of the grassland, the Khitan people worship wolves, such ferocious animals.

Song Xiaoyi knows a lot about this totem, they will not attack something stronger than themselves when they are weak. But when the time comes, it will leap to the top, and it will not give up until it achieves its goal, and this is what the officials are worried about.

What made the official even more unsettling was the unity of the wolves, who once said: "Wolves usually move alone, but wolves are the most united beasts, and you will not find any wolf that runs away alone when a companion is injured." In the same way, one of the secrets of the wolf's success in hunting animals bigger and more ferocious than itself is that once it competes with the big guys, the wolves will come from all directions and work together to subdue the opponents" - this is why people say that the evil tiger is difficult to fight the wolf.

And the most wolf-like thing about the Khitan people is that they are self-aware, the wolf knows that he is a wolf and not a tiger, so the wolf only does what he is capable of doing, knows when to attack, and knows when to retreat.

Discipline is also a characteristic of the Khitans, and it can be said that the social order of the Khitan army and the wolf pack is very imaginary, and each member understands his role and status. When the wolves eat, it's easy to see sounds and movements like curtsy, bowing, wailing, and hugging – all depending on the status of each member.

Of course, the most terrifying thing is that the wolf knows that his appetite can only digest meat, so the only thing the wolf can do is to eat the prey cleanly every time.

It is not difficult to see from the education of her son by the Empress Dowager Xiao Tart just now that the current Liao Dynasty is advancing under the leadership of a she-wolf, and the wolf cub will grow up one day even if he is young, provided that the she-wolf can take care of him.

Although Yu Li did not match, how Song Xiaoyi hoped that Yelu Chongyuan, who was watching the throne, could eliminate the she-wolf and the young wolf cub in Xiao Tart at this time, and his growth would become a new threat to the Great Song Dynasty.

The carriage was advancing, and Zhou Zhan kept telling the curious Liao Emperor about the news of the Great Song Dynasty, how lively the city of Tokyo was, how the commerce of the Great Song Dynasty developed, what the merchants of the Great Song Dynasty looked like, and how the ships of the Great Song Dynasty crossed thousands of miles to reach the Great Food Country, all of which surprised the young emperor.

But he soon reverted to his previous appearance, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, this little emperor was really capable of self-restraint.

The hunting of the Liao Dynasty is actually very simple, that is, to compete with the strength of warriors, and to show their strength and sacrifice to the heavens and ancestors, although the process is simple and rude, but the result is solemn and sacred, even the young emperor is also on the hunting Hu clothes.

All civil and military officials are like this, the Fan people, Han people, royal families, and courtiers all wore Hufu without exception, stepped on horses and rode and shoot, which made Zhou Zhan think of King Zhao Wuling's Hufu riding and shooting.

It also made him quickly understand why the grassland people will rise rapidly, this kind of fierce and unyielding nation is really difficult to deal with, since the official family called all the ethnic groups that originated on the grassland as the grassland people, Zhou Zhan suddenly realized, this is very reasonable, as if these ethnic groups are like this.

From the Xiongnu to the Turks, which one is not like this? Even if they are defeated, there are always other ethnic groups emerging on the grassland, becoming mortal enemies of the Central Plains Dynasty, as if the herding and farming are natural enemies.

Now Zhou Zhan suddenly felt that the decision of the official family to move the capital to Xijin Mansion was very wise, this was the best way to put pressure on the Liao Dynasty and exert control over the grassland, thinking of this, Zhou Zhan couldn't help but nod slightly, but Song Xiaoyi on the side was inexplicable, how could he know what Zhou Zhan was thinking now?

"Shopkeeper Song, do you know what I invited you to do?"

The young emperor suddenly spoke, obviously doing this to give Song Xiaoyi a dismount, Song Xiaoyi was slightly startled and immediately relieved, this is a dismount for himself! Emperor Liao's small method of asking a sudden question surprised him, but he was a little impetuous.

"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people don't know ......"

The queen mother behind the bead curtain opened her mouth to take the emperor's words and said: "Grass people? Not necessarily, right? should claim to be a foreign minister, the imperial brother is really "taking good care" of my Daliao, but he can't deceive people too much! ”

Zhou Zhan was so frightened that he couldn't speak, but Song Xiaoyi closed his eyes slightly, obviously the mask of the black hand had been torn by Xiao Tart, and now he was sitting in the carriage like naked.

Sure enough, as Song Xiaoyi analyzed, how could Xiao Tzuli not know that the Song people in his Daliao capital were secret spies, even if they were well disguised, after all, there was a difference in race, and the Han and Khitan were very different.

It seems that the so-called martial law at the city gate and the routine ancestral system are all excuses, otherwise the Great Song Dynasty delegation would not have been detained, in the hunting team, Song Xiaoyi did not see the missions of other countries coming, it should be an action against the Great Song Dynasty.

At this moment, Song Xiaoyi was cold, and the black hand in his hand would be destroyed in Shangjing City like Huo Laoqi again, but Xiao Tzuli suddenly said: "I don't know how many black hands you sent to Shangjing by the Great Song Dynasty, but as long as you know your existence, the secret spies exposed in front of people have no threat to my Da Liao, and the Judges Supervision Department has made it clear to the palace that the palace will not make a big move, after all, it is the person sent by the imperial brother, but before you disappear, the palace wants you to watch a good show......"

The carriage was suddenly knocked, and the palace people in Hufu humbly handed over a note, and then disappeared outside the car, Xiao Tzuli looked at the content of the note and frowned slightly, the note slipped from her hand, Yelu Hongji picked it up and took a look, there were no superfluous words on the note, only one sentence: "The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty passed it orally, if the Liao Dynasty sees the Great Song Dynasty as the biggest threat, then wait for the destruction of the country!" ”

At the end of the note is the secret seal of He Zhengdan's envoy Yeluja, and nothing else......
