One after another, the ministers and generals of the Liao State in the imperial tent retreated, and one by one they were subconsciously relieved, and then hurriedly dispersed, each returning to the camp, conveying the will of Yelu Deguang and carrying out his orders.

It was the same with Yelu Ruan, who walked hundreds of paces before he looked up at the small crescent moon hanging high above the night, and sighed faintly. The face of the national character with a dense beard was worried, and his mind was full of the situation in front of the emperor, and he felt the danger.

"King!" While thinking about it, a figure stood beside Yelu Ruan and called.

The small voice made Yelu Ruan feel excited. The person who came was obviously a Khitan general, about the same age as Yelu Ruan, and the face under the open flame was a little strange. This person's name is Yelu Anjun, Fang Cai is also in the tent, and his father once supported Yelu Bei and secretly maintained close contact with Yelu Ruan.

"Ann Bo!" Glancing at Yeluan, Yeluan answered and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Hearing this, Yelu An glanced in the direction of the imperial tent, and leaned closer and lowered his voice: "King, something is wrong, you have to prepare early!" ”

Hearing this, Yelu Ruan also subconsciously looked at the brightly lit imperial tent, and then quickly took Yelu An's sleeve and walked towards the dark place on the side, glaring at him: "What do you mean?" ”

Seeing Yeluruan's performance, Yeluan secretly settled in his heart, afraid that this King Yongkang would not react. Making a normal appearance, Yelu An and accompanied Yelu Ruan to walk, while whispering: "Since returning to the north, Your Majesty's temper has become more and more irritable, and if you are a little unsatisfactory, it will be severely punished, especially recently, you have already killed the chamberlains and courtiers. This is too obvious from His Majesty's performance on weekdays! ”

"What the hell are you talking about?" A look of nervousness already appeared on Yelu Ruan's face.

Yelu'an looked more careful: "King." The minister has secretly investigated, and in the past few days, His Majesty has secretly summoned several medical officers to enter the account. Judging by its performance, His Majesty's body seems to be wrong......"

"You're so daring! Dare to secretly check the royal tent, don't die! As soon as his words fell, Yelu Ruan suppressed his voice and stared at him fiercely, probably because of too much force, and his face was a little red.

Yelu Anyan looked very calm and continued: "King, can't you see the situation in the tent? Your Majesty is still secretly suspicious of you! After all, you are the son of the king of Dongdan, how can Your Majesty treat each other sincerely. If you don't take precautions, I'm afraid that your life will be lost sooner or later! ”

Hearing his words, Yelu Ruan subconsciously clenched his fists, glanced at him with his eyebrows, did not speak, looked pensive, and looked calm, but the heavy breathing betrayed his nervous psychology.

After being silent for a long time, Yelu Ruan finally spoke, and solemnly admonished: "Don't say anything like this again, otherwise, I won't be able to protect you." ”

"The King—"

Without giving Yelu Anyan a chance to continue talking, Yelu Ruan gave him a stern look. After walking a few more steps, he lowered his voice and said, "Right now, the most important thing is to protect yourself, don't act rashly." You take the opportunity to meet Jerusheri and appease him for me......"

"Yes!" Yelu'an was not stupid, and when he heard this, his eyebrows were happy, and he immediately replied: "The minister understands." You can rest assured. ”

Separated from Yelu An, Yelu Ruan's expression became even more gloomy, obviously thinking about his words, and there was a hesitation between his eyebrows. Yelu Ruan is also a bit virtuous, he is wide inside and strict outside, quite popular, coupled with the noble background and historical legacy of the Khitan, how can he have no ideas in his heart.

The eyes of Yelu Deguang in Fang Cai's tent appeared in his mind, and Yelu Ruan couldn't help but shudder, and a sense of urgency inexplicably arose in his heart. It's just that in the current army, Yelu Deguang is still the emperor who decides the life and death of thousands of people with one word, and if there is no accident, he does not dare to make any changes at all.

As Yeluan said, what is the use of preparing early, as long as Yerod is only in one day, no matter how much preparation he makes? Yelu Ruan's mind is still very clear......

......

Apparently he had come for real, and according to the order, he slowed down the marching ranks and beheaded them. Under the threat of life, the efficiency of moving north has been greatly improved, but the price is that countless bones have been added along the way.

Under such high pressure, even those Khitan soldiers complained. In less than three days, the army migrated for hundreds of miles, until it reached the territory of Zhenzhou, on the side of Luancheng on the edge of the Huanhe River, before stopping and setting up camp.

This time, it was really Yelu Deguang's body that couldn't bear it, and the news of his illness also spread.

In the imperial camp, Yelu Deguang was paralyzed on the couch, with "ice packs" on his head and chest, absorbing heat, and from time to time, he wanted to order someone to change it, which seemed to relieve the irritability in his body.

On the side of the couch, there were several people waiting under Yelu Ruan to report the situation.

"Where is Liu Jiazi's Han army now, still behind?" There was fire in Jerod's voice.

"According to the scout's report, the enemy army has entered the territory of Zhaozhou and stayed in Zhaoqing County for an unknown purpose!" Yelu Ruan carefully observed Yelu Deguang and replied: "Your Majesty, the other party is not self-sufficient, and has been following, and among the ministers, he simply allocated heavy troops to return south, and completely annihilated it, and this haunting disaster will be eliminated." ”

The "ice pack" covered Yerod's eyes, and his expression could not be seen, as if he thought for a while, before asking, "Who do you think is the right person to lead the army?" ”

Hearing this, Yelu Ruan suddenly came to his senses, buried his head a little lower, did not dare to show any abnormality, and said calmly: "Minister, I am willing to go." ”

Taking the "ice pack" off his forehead, Yelu Deguang turned his head sideways, glanced at Yelu Ruan with his misty eyes, blinked a few times slowly, and waved his hand: "That's it, Liu family children, there are less than 10,000 soldiers, so don't worry." He took a different route, keeping such a distance from my army, I am afraid that he was also afraid of the attack of our army. It's all in Zhenzhou, and it's important to go back to Beijing. Just, ignore him! ”

"Yes!" Yelu Ruan responded very calmly, not in a hurry, and very deferentially.

Retracting his gaze from Yelu Ruan, Yelu Deguang put the "ice pack" on his forehead again to continue to absorb heat, and continued to ask: "What news is coming from Kaifeng, what is the situation with Uncle Guo, and where is Liu Zhiyuan?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty!" This time it was Zhang Li who accosted him: "The puppet emperor led his army south, and he has not yet entered the land of Heluo. Uncle Guo sent someone to report that in order to defend the Hedong Army, he had been ordered by you to make Li Congyi, the youngest son of Li Tang Mingzong, the Duke of Xunguo, the emperor and rebuild the Tang State. In the name of Li Tang, he gathered soldiers and horses to fight against Liu Zhiyuan. ”

"I'm afraid of this, I still can't resist Liu Zhiyuan!" Jerod didn't look very optimistic.

"Even if you can't resist it, it's enough to cause trouble for Liu Zhiyuan and prevent him from easily occupying the Central Plains!" Zhang Li replied.

Exhaling a breath of scorching breath, Yelu Deguang touched his somewhat dazed head, and suddenly changed the topic: "After shrinking the troops, now in Hebei Prefectures, the anti-mere heart is rising day by day......"

No one dared to answer this, for fear of angering Jerod Light. It is said that the tiger when it is injured is the most dangerous, and the Liao Emperor at this time, in this state, will be angry when he touches it.

Seeing his subordinates' reaction, Yelu Deguang also understood, endured the unbearable heat pain in his body, and sighed: "When I crossed the dawn of the sun, I said that there were three losses in this southern expedition. The army plundered the millet, including the people's private property, and did not send the festival to return to the town. Now it seems that there is one more thing to add, the act of slaughtering the city in anger......"
