Yelu Chongyuan came to the mansion of Zhang Jian, the prime minister of Zuo, with a heavy heart, the reason why he wanted to come in person was because he didn't trust anyone under him, Zhang Jian's mansion was not too far from the palace, and it was easy to reach it by bypassing the bustling bazaar.

Prime Minister Zuo's mansion is still heavily defended, this is the greatest protection given by the emperor, and now the courtiers can only be protected under the protection of the emperor, and the guards at the door saw Yelu Chongyuan, although they were surprised by his dress, but they still respectfully saluted and invited the door inside.

Zhang Jian was very surprised after seeing Yelu Chongyuan, the two basically had no contact except for seeing each other in the palace, and there must have been something unusual happening when Yelu Chongyuan came to the door in person this time.

Zhang Jian, who was going to be polite, was interrupted as soon as he spoke.

"Prime Minister Zuo doesn't have to say hello, this king has something important to tell him this time, and he only has the kung fu of tea."

Seeing that Yelu Chongyuan was solemn, Zhang Jian was no longer polite, and personally filled him with a cup of tea and said: "His Royal Highness King Qin, please speak, the old minister listens!" ”

Yelu Chongyuan took the tea and drank it all, adjusted the flustered emotions in his heart and said: "This king was going to visit the queen mother today, but who knew that in the inner hall, I heard that the queen mother and Xiao Xiaoxian were plotting to depose the emperor......

Zhang Jian didn't take it seriously at first, but when he heard the words behind him, his face changed drastically, his body straightened and stood up suddenly, his eyes exuded a fine light and looked around, and he stared at Yelu Chongyuan tightly after making sure that there was no one.

"The stakes are very high, the old minister dares to ask again, His Royal Highness the King of Qin has heard it with his own ears?!"

Yelu Chongyuan understood the fear in Zhang Jian's heart, and he didn't believe it at the beginning, so he nodded slightly and said: "It's true, it's what this king has heard of himself, and there is no lie!" ”

Zhang Jian's thoughts changed sharply, yes, he should have heard it with his own ears, otherwise speculating on this kind of thing would not be of any benefit to Yelu Chongyuan.

With a long sigh of relief, Zhang Jian put down a big stone in his heart and became relaxed, it was strange that he could still feel so relieved after hearing the bad news, maybe it was because he solved his worries that His Majesty couldn't do anything to his biological mother.

Now that there are enough reasons and excuses, it will definitely make His Majesty's determination to abolish the queen much stronger!

He bowed down to Yelu Chongyuan and said: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness, King Qin, your actions have played an important role in the stability of Your Majesty and even the Great Liao, and Your Majesty will definitely remember your help today." ”

Yelu Chongyuan nodded slightly, and quietly left through the back door under the leadership of the steward, the felt coat on his body was the best cover, and disappeared into the noisy crowd like a civilian.

Zhang Jian set off immediately, His Majesty must be hunting in the hunting grounds in Shangjing at this time, this is his way of passing the extra time, as the king of a country, he has few political affairs, and he is not even as much as Zhang Jian, the prime minister of the left.

This is the sorrow of the emperor, but also the sorrow of Da Liao, Zhang Jian galloped on the hunting ground, this situation will change soon, he has the most important information in his hands.

Information that can make the Emperor angry......

Yelu Zongzhen used all his strength to swing his knife and cut off a deer's head, and the bright red blood spurted out and stained his gorgeous clothes red, and the blood dripped down the cuffs and fell to the ground, which was quickly absorbed by the land, leaving only a trace of dark red color.

While wiping the treasure knife in his hand, he sighed weakly: "There is nothing worse than a dead heart like this......"

The emperor's actions made Zhang Jian very satisfied, that is, he should put himself to the Jedi like this, otherwise how could he be reborn?

Respectfully stepped forward and saluted: "Your Majesty, the emperor once left a strong army and the Northwest Palace, led by the commander Yelu Xisun, which can be of great use!" ”

The Northwest Palace is the summer retreat of the Liao Dynasty, and the Liao Dynasty clan will move here every May, but Yelu Zong has never seen any strong army, but since Zhang Jian dares to say so, there must be a reason.

Yelu Zongzhen nodded slightly and said, "Then the time will be set on the fifth day of the fifth month of May." ”

On the fifth day of the fifth month of May, the Dragon Boat Festival, this is the moment when people relax their vigilance and celebrate, and the festival of the Liao people to accept the Han people is not a day or two, and the Dragon Boat Festival is also regarded as an orthodox festival by the Liao people.

Zhang Jian breathed a long sigh of relief, he knew that the strong army left by the first emperor had reached the moment when it was time to show the sword, and Yelu Xisun's strong soldiers were even more elite than Huluduo and the palace tent army, all of them were the emperor's most loyal servants, and their allegiance was not to Da Liao but to the direct descendants of the Yelu family, the heirs to the throne.

This is the last resort left by Emperor Shengzong, and the only way to help His Majesty.

Emperor Shengzong was fully capable of getting rid of Xiao Yunjin with his own hands, but he didn't, and deliberately handed over this thorny issue to His Majesty to deal with, which was a test, a test to temper His Majesty's mind and ability.

……

Zhang Jian actively prepared, in order to keep Xiao Yunjin's henchmen and cronies in Shangjing, he sacrificed a lot of things, and all this was done so secretly, that Xiao Yunjin and Xiao Xiaoxian were completely unaware that in their eyes, the emperor's power had become quite weak, and those who supported the emperor were unwilling to wring themselves into this struggle for power either defected or watched the fire from the other side.

Mingzhe is good to protect himself, in Xiao Yunjin's opinion, this is the practice of a smart person, because his power is already supreme in Daliao, almost no one can challenge himself, and going to the Northwest Palace in May to escape the summer is a pastime for her, and she can take her favorite man to play, as for the cronies to stay in Shangjing to take over the power during this time.

Self-confidence is a good thing, but overconfidence is arrogance, and the price of arrogance is destruction!

The large and bloated procession set off from Shangjing, and Yelu Shigeyuan stood at the gate of Shangjing to greet his brother and mother leaving, and in his opinion, this may be the last time to send off the mother who had put infinite pressure on him.

Xiao Yunjin only set off with hundreds of escorts, and all the Huluduo who was accompanied by Yelu Zongzhen were also Xiao Yunjin's people, so she was not worried about safety.

As for the armed forces of Xijing, in Xiao Yunjin's eyes, they are just some slaves, these slaves will never be the opponents of the elite Luduo, Xiao Yunjin will not put her safety in danger, she believes that no one in the Liao Dynasty can compete with these elites, because without their own edicts, no one can mobilize the army.

How far is heaven from hell?

If you ask Zhang Jian, he will say that there is only a distance of less than 500 miles, and this short 500 miles is the heaven of the emperor Yelu Zongzhen, and the hell of the queen mother Xiao Yunjin.

Xiao Xiaoxian, who accompanied him, always felt that something was wrong, although these guards and Hu Luduo were all the Queen Mother's people, but he couldn't see a trace of nervousness and uneasiness on the faces of Zhang Jian and the emperor, and he began to worry about the insecurity of this trip, and repeatedly asked the Queen Mother if she had any military transfers recently, but the answer was no.

But the uneasiness in Xiao Xiaoxian's heart became heavier and heavier as the team continued to advance.

Worried about what's coming, just after arriving at the Northwest Palace, Xiao Xiaoxian was imprisoned, looking at Zhang Jian in front of him, he was desperate to find that all the Huluduo who was supposed to protect him were killed in this big tent, the big tent was full of corpses and blood, and the blood on the ground was thick and sticky, and it was a little difficult to even lift his feet......

Zhang Jian walked in, looking at him like a desperate ghost, Xiao Xiao wanted to shout first, but his throat couldn't make a sound, he knew that once he spoke, he would become one of these corpses......
