761, The Storm Rises Again (Medium)

Five days later, when Zheng Fei arrived at Yingtianfu, there was explosive news from the north that Yeluchun had died in Yanjing on the fourth day of the fifth month! However, the current situation in Nanking Road is still unknown.

Zheng Fei was even more anxious, and continued to lead the independent army to speed up the march north, along the way the prefectures and counties had already received the flying pigeon message, all of them tried their best to prepare food, water, and replacement horses for the emperor who might pass by, so as not to delay the emperor's time.

Five days later, when Zheng Fei arrived in Qizhou, there was more detailed news coming, but Zheng Fei was even more worried, the news said that Yelu Chun made an edict on the occasion of his death, announcing that Yelu Caijie was the new emperor, and that Empress Xiao, Prime Minister Li Chuwen, the Liao army were all commanded to make Yelu Sage, and the resentful army was commanded to make Guo Yaoshi and other major military and political ministers in the court witnessed this edict.

Next, Yelu Chun will mourn first, and then Yelu Caijie will officially succeed to the throne,

Unexpectedly, on the third day of the state funeral, this edict was rejected by a group of ministers led by King Yeluding of Jin and King Yeluhong of Han. system, they also took out a so-called Yeluchun's real "edict", claiming that Yeluchun said in the edict that the reason why he himself appointed Yelu Caijie as the imperial concubine and accepted the entry of the Chinese army was forced to do so, so he made this "secret edict", indicating that what he really wanted to set up was the Jin King Yeluding, because Yeluding is the pure Khitan and Khitan royal family, neither the "concubine" of Yelu Caijie, the Han people, nor the "Han mongrel" in Yelu'anbei.

This so-called "secret edict" was originally full of loopholes, but unexpectedly, the prime minister Li Chuwen and the commander of the military capital made Yelu Sage actually stand up and publicly support Yeluding, and said that they also received Yeluchun's dictation on his deathbed, proving the authenticity of this "secret edict"!

Subsequently, Yeluding ordered a crusade against Yelu Caijie, and at the same time ordered the city gate to be closed, saying that he had reached a consensus with the Jin State, which not only recognized Yeluding's throne, but also sent hundreds of thousands of troops to help the Great Liao drive out the national thieves, and the Jin army and the border guards of the Liao State will arrive together in two or three days, kill all the Chinese troops, and the two countries will make friends and share the world!

So, with the support of Yelu Sage, Li Chuwen and others, almost all the Liao troops in Yanjing City surrendered to Yeluding, and they quickly controlled the city gate and kept Hua Rong and the Chinese army who rushed to hear the news out of the city. At the same time, they sent men and horses to the palace to capture Yelu Caijie and Yelu Anbei alive.

And another real power figure in Yanjing City, the commander of the resentful army, Guo Yaoshi's movements are not clear, it is said that he has not publicly expressed his position, and he should be holding a wait-and-see attitude.

As for the Liao officials and generals in Yanjing City and elsewhere in Nanjing, they have all quickly begun to divide, some support Yelu Caijie, some support Yeluding, and of course, many remain neutral.

The entire Nanjing Road is boiling with this matter!

At the end of the news, it was only said that Hua Rong had led tens of thousands of Chinese troops to surround Yanjing City, but there was still no definite news about the situation in the city and the safety of Yelu Caijie's mother and son!

Zheng Fei was burned all over when he learned about it, he didn't expect the worst to happen, because the person Yelu Sage disguised himself so well, even Yelu Caijie said in the letter that this person was Yeluchun's most loyal subordinate, and he would definitely follow Yeluchun's arrangement, and no one had ever seen him have a too close relationship with Yeluding, but the fact was that the most unlikely situation really happened, as soon as Yeluchun died, he betrayed Yeluchun, and in this way, everyone was caught off guard!

It's just that no matter how much you worry about it now, Zheng Fei rushed north even more frantically, eager to have wings on his back, so that he could fly to Nanjing in an instant to protect Yelu Caijie's mother and son!

He couldn't imagine how much pain he would have suffered if something really happened to Yelu Caijie's mother and son! If that's the case, not to mention anything else, Zheng Fei can't guarantee that he won't lose his mind under extreme anger and make a bloody move to wash Yanjing......!

But just when Zheng Fei rushed to the border of Cangzhou with great suffering and pain, there was another latest news coming, which made Zheng Fei almost cry with joy, and it was almost like a feeling of being reincarnated as a human being......!

It turned out that just when everyone thought that Yelu Caijie's mother and son had no way to live...... the situation had undergone earth-shaking changes!

Yeluding led people into the palace, but they were empty, and there was no trace of Queen Xiao and Yelu Caijie's mother and son in the palace. Jerodin ordered a thorough search of the entire palace, but after a full day of carpet search, nothing was found, and it was clear that Jerodite had gotten the news lurking.

Yeluding couldn't help but be annoyed, but he was helpless, but he was immediately relieved, if he didn't catch it, he didn't catch it, anyway, Yanjing was already in his hands, and Yelusage's people would soon lead the golden soldiers to kill, and he, the emperor, was sitting firm!

The next news from the outside is also continuing to develop in his favor, the Jin State sent 200,000 troops as promised, although after the joint efforts of Hua Rong and others and Yeluchun in the past few years, an impregnable defense line has been established on the Liaojin border, but that is under the premise that the Chinese army and the Liao army cooperate together, and now the Liao army suddenly defected under the order of Jelu Sage, and directly put the 200,000 Jin army in, and then attacked the defenseless Chinese army with the Jin army, and the defense line naturally collapsed instantly!

It is said that the losses of the Chinese army are extremely heavy and have been completely routed, and at this moment the Jin army and the Liao army are pursuing them while approaching Yanjing, and it is expected to reach Yanjing soon!

Yeluding was overjoyed, at this moment, although the Jin army had not yet been killed, although the city was still surrounded by Chinese troops, he could not bear it, and immediately decided to officially enthrone the emperor in the palace immediately. And his supporters and comrades, as well as the "Manchu civil and military forces" who had fallen to him in this matter, all moved to hear the wind and agreed with the matter, showing their loyalty in exchange for the glory and wealth of the future.

The entire Yanjing seems to have completely changed its surname to Yeluding in the news of the defeat of the Chinese army. However, at this time in Yanjing, there were still a group of officials and generals, both Han and Khitan, whether they were disdainful of Yeluding's introduction of the Jin army into the country, or they were really loyal to Yeluchun and Yelucaijie, although they did not stand up against Yeluding in order to save their lives, they also expressed their attitude with their silence.

Jerodin was very dissatisfied with these people, and if it weren't for the fact that he didn't want to cause trouble before he ascended the throne, he would have wanted these people to taste his power.

On the day of his accession to the throne, the palace was magnificently furnished, and all those who supported Jerodin gathered in the palace.

Wearing the dragon robe that had been prepared half a year ago, he slowly walked to the enthronement platform in their chorus of "Long live", and while walking, he slowly looked at the "loyal ministers" on both sides, and met their eyes to look at him, feeling the flattery, excitement, awe and fear in their eyes, and he was really proud to the extreme.

But when he was about to walk to the throne, he was stunned in his heart, he clearly found that there was one person missing, it stands to reason that he would not be aware of the lack of this crowd, but the lack of this person is too important, because this person played a vital role in his seizure of the throne, this person is none other than Jerusage!

Why didn't Jeruzag come to such an important occasion? Yeluding was a little unhappy in his heart, but he couldn't care about these things at this time, so let's finish the next enthronement procedure first.

Yeluding wanted to walk down the stairs to finish the last part of his journey before becoming the emperor, and suddenly, he found that many people were looking away, and the crowd was also restless, Yeluding was furious in his heart, who would dare to disturb "me" at such an important moment?! He immediately turned to look behind him, but he was startled at this glance, only to see that on the palace wall in the distance, among the soldiers step by step, a person appeared there, and the reason why that person could cause such a commotion was because that person ...... He was wearing a dragon robe!

In the palace, how can there be two people wearing dragon robes together!

Jerodin could be said to be furious, and he was about to give the order to arrest the man, but when he looked closely, he was so shocked that he almost fell, that is...... Jerodzejie!

He and Yeluhong, Li Chuwen and others recognized it at a glance, it was Yelu Caijie, who had been missing for two days!

Before they could react, another person emerged from the city wall, and gave a very respectful salute to Yelu Caijie, and with his appearance, the audience suddenly gasped!

There is hardly anyone who does not know that man, and that person is Jeruzag in military uniform!

Yerodin watched all this in amazement, like falling into an ice cellar, he finally understood what ......!

Immediately afterwards he saw Jerodzejie turn his head and say something to Jeruzag,

Jerusage nodded respectfully, then pulled out the sword at his waist and ordered in a loud voice, "On the orders of the emperor, kill the thieves!" ……! ”

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Zheng Fei read the letter, and when he raised his head again, his tired face was still full of the happiest smile, he looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing so happily! What a Jelu Caijie, what a Hua Rong, Pang Wanchun, what a Jelu Sage! It turned out that all of this was a good show for them! They were so calm that they even hid it from me!

Zheng Fei was completely relieved at this time, he breathed a sigh of relief after laughing enough, and continued to rush to the north, but there was no need to be in such a hurry, but the speed was only slowed down a little, he really couldn't wait to know how his extremely smart wife directed such a wonderful drama!

In the next few days, as we got closer and closer to Nanjing Road, more details and results came one after another.

On the day when Jerodzejie closed the net with Jerusage, Hua Rong and others, Jerodin killed himself on the throne in despair, and fell in a pool of his own blood in his dragon robe.

In addition to Yeluhon and Li Chuwen surrendered and were captured, more than 300 of Yeluding's comrades and officials and generals who defected to him were either killed in the resistance or disarmed and surrendered.

On the following day, the resentful army commanded Guo Yaoshi to come to the palace to ask Yelu Caijie for the guilt, and he was dismissed from his post and was waiting to be released.

Not long after, news came from the front that Jerusage's subordinates successfully introduced the Jin army into the ambush circle between the Chinese army and the Liao army, and the Jin army was surrounded, but unfortunately, in the end, the red-eyed Jin army stubbornly broke through, but they also paid a huge price, leaving nearly 100,000 dead bodies.
