The Liao State was defeated in Western Xia, and the defeat was a bit miserable.

not only buried a group of soldiers who could fight well, but also buried the wealth that the Liao State moved out of the Goryeo palace.

More importantly, it buried the invincible reputation of the Liao State.

The first two are acceptable to Liao.

But the latter, Liao really can't accept it.

Once the name of invincibility is erected among the nations, then the Liao State can make the enemy fearful just by playing a banner in foreign wars.

But once the invincible reputation is gone, then anyone can come out and challenge the authority of the Liao overlord.

The little Western Xia can defeat the Liao State, but what about the rich Great Song Dynasty?

Can you also work hard to teach Liaoguo to be a man?

The Liao army was defeated in Western Xia, and the Liao people felt uncomfortable as if they had been skinned.

If it was just that they were not as good as others and lost, then they would definitely hide and hurt themselves, but now Kou Ji has revealed that Yelu Angkor leaked the news as early as when the Liao soldiers were in Western Xia.

Then they will not tolerate it.

No one needs to mention it, they will subconsciously think.

The Liao army defeated the Western Xia, and it may be that Yelu Angkor leaked the news and was known to the Western Xia people in advance.

In this way, the Liao State will be defeated by the Western Xia.

Since someone has committed an unforgivable mistake, then he must pay a heavy price for it.

What about the son of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, he is not the eldest son of Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, he has done something wrong and must pay the price.

Almost all the Liao ministers, after Kou Ji finished speaking, their eyes fell on the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

As the Khitan co-lord and the emperor of Liao, he needs to give everyone an explanation.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu sensed their thoughts from the eyes of the Liao ministers, but he did not open his mouth to punish Yelu Angkor, but stared at Kou Ji and said in a deep voice: "You still haven't told me, how did you know that I was going to use troops against Western Xia?" And how did you know when I used my troops? How did you deduce the route of my march? ”

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu turned the initial question into three questions in an instant.

Kou Ji did not go to Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu to question because of this, he nodded and said: "When the foreign minister found out that your country was going to join forces with Qingtang and use troops against Western Xia, the foreign minister carefully observed the movements of your country.

When he learned that His Majesty the Emperor of Liao led an army of 500,000 to go out hunting, the foreign ministers knew that your country had already sent troops.

The reason why the foreign minister was able to deduce the route of your country's soldiers and horses was also inferred at this time.

Your country wants to attack Western Xia, and in the name of hunting, you go into the mountains.

Then the only thing your country can walk is the mountain road.

The foreign minister only needs to find a few veterans who are proficient in marching speed, and calculate it, and he can control the marching speed of your country's soldiers and horses in the mountains.

But at this time, the foreign ministers were not sure whether your country really wanted to attack Western Xia.

Until there was a food shortage in my Great Song Dynasty.

Eighteen prefectures, including Huainan and Jiangsu, and Zhejiang fell into a grain shortage at the same time.

According to the foreign ministers' verification, there was no shortage of harvest in these 18 prefectures, but there was a grain shortage for no reason.

Something went wrong.

The foreign minister carefully inspected the transit situation in the eighteen states.

Evidence of your country's grain purchases was eventually discovered.

The answer to the question of what your country is secretly buying grain for is obvious.

It is to be used as military rations.

At the same time, I fell into the disaster of food shortage, which caused my Great Song Dynasty to be powerless to intervene when your country attacked Western Xia.

Combined with the above reasons, it is enough to deduce that your country wants to attack Western Xia. ”

"Bang!"

After listening to Kou Ji's words, Yelu Zong patted the table in front of him, stood up angrily, and stared at Kou Ji.

Kou Ji was a little stunned.

I don't understand why Yelu Zong's wish suddenly reacted so much.

Just now he mentioned that when Yelu Angkor indirectly leaked the secret that the Liao State was going to attack Western Xia, Yelu Zongyuan didn't react so much.

Now, when the issue of grain purchase is mentioned, Yelu Zong suddenly reacts so much......

Could it be?

It can't be such a coincidence, right?

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu had a calm face and said faintly: "I thought that Angkor only showed a flaw in the Song court, and you were aware of my intentions. I didn't expect that before that, he had already revealed two flaws.

I allowed him to spend a lot of money to buy food, and specially reminded him not to show his feet.

Unexpectedly, he was still left to be caught. ”

Kou Ji's eyes widened slightly.

He guessed right.

The person in charge of buying grain was actually Yelu Angkor.

Without waiting for Kou Ji to react, Yelu Zongyuan had already taken the lead in leaving the desk where he was sitting, knelt in front of Yelu Longxu, the Liao Emperor, and said sincerely: "The child implores his father to spare the fourth brother's life." ”

Subsequently, several other older princes of the Liao State also came out one after another to intercede for Yelu Angkor.

In addition, some members of Yelu Angkor's mother's family came out to intercede for him.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu ignored them, but stared at Kou Ji and said, "Kou Ji, I ask you, if someone in your Song Kingdom makes such a big mistake, how should you deal with it?" ”

Kou Ji wanted to say something.

What do you do with your son, and ask me what I am doing?

As Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu's words landed, everyone's eyes in the bowl fell on Kou Ji.

Kou Ji glanced at Xiang Minzhong, asking for an off-site aid.

Who knew that Xiang Minzhong, who was not ashamed, did not pay attention to him at all, but blatantly took advantage of the maids of other Liaoguo.

it!

Lao Xiang, are you embarrassed to be thrown abroad?

Do you believe that I wrote this paragraph of you into the book and circulated it for thousands of years, so that future generations will scold you to death?

Xiang Minzhong is unreliable.

Kou Ji could only look at Wang Zeng, who only glanced faintly in the direction where Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu was, and did not speak.

But Kou Ji understood the meaning of Wang Zeng's eyes.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu wants to dispose of his son, that is his power.

Kou Ji can't participate casually.

Kou Ji immediately arched his hand and said: "His Majesty the Emperor of the Liao Kingdom, the foreign minister's career is still shallow, and he has never met this kind of person. ”

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu kicked the ball to him, and he kicked the ball back.

In fact, if you really want Kou Ji to say it, Kou Ji can also say it to Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

With the urine nature of the Great Song Dynasty, if a prince really makes such a mistake, he basically won't die, and maybe he will live a very moist life.

Why?

Because if this really happens, someone below will definitely jump out to take the blame for the prince.

Even if the officials knew that it was the prince's mistake, they would not force the emperor to kill his son.

The final result is that the scapegoat dies and the prince lives.

And it will live very moist.

But Kou Ji will not tell the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu about this.

How the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu dealt with Yelu Angkor had little to do with him.

Anyway, Yelu Angkor had a hostile relationship with him, and before he spoke, he had already thought about pitting Yelu Angkor.

If Yelu Angkor was really killed by the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu in a rage, he would be satisfied.

How could he open his mouth to help Yelu Angkor.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu saw that Kou Ji kicked the ball back, and said in a deep voice: "Someone! ”

"Your Majesty and slow ......"

Just when the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu was about to order Yelu Angkor to be killed.

Brother Xiao Bodhisattva of Liaohou opened her mouth gently, she looked at Emperor Yelu Longxu of Liao, and persuaded: "Your Majesty's heirs are not prosperous, and each one of them is hard-won and cannot be broken lightly." Besides, today is the birthday of the bone (Yelu Zong's true Khitan name), and it is not appropriate to kill. ”

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu snorted coldly and scolded: "This rebel has made such a big mistake, if you don't kill him, how can I explain to the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty?" ”

Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin squeezed out a smiling face, and said in a low voice: "It's better to demote him to a herdsman, collect the money of his mother's family, and distribute it to the Khitan Eight ......."

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu heard the words of Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin, and his brows were squeezed.

He felt that Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin was becoming more and more arrogant in front of him, and frequently intervened in the government and politics, and did not take the queen Xiao Bodhisattva in his eyes at all, and was faintly acting as the queen.

This made Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu very unhappy.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu originally planned to listen to Brother Xiao Bodhisattva's words, and pushed the boat down the river to release Yelu Angkor.

But when he heard the words of Shunsheng Yuan Concubine Xiao Yunjin, he made up his mind to kill.

"Someone! I took down Yelu Angkor, put him in shackles and locks, paraded through the streets for three days, and beheaded him for public display after three days. ”

Xiang Minzhong, Wang Zeng, Kou Ji and other Song Chen's eyes widened one by one when they heard this.

They found it a little hard to believe.

Yelu Angkor was his own son, not his nephew.

He said kill and kill, how ruthless this should be.

When the Liao ministers heard the words of the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, they also felt a little incredible.

They originally thought that the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu would take advantage of Xiao Bodhisattva's words to push the boat down the river and let Yelu Anggo go, but they didn't expect that the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu would really kill him.

Moment.

Those Liao ministers who were staring at the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu and were ready to ask for an explanation were like quails, and they all shrank into the case.

This kind of person who kills his son is not soft, and he will not be soft when he kills them.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu is not an emperor like Zhao Heng, and he must first discuss with hundreds of officials what he does.

The power of life and death of all the people in Liao is in his hands.

"Your Majesty......"

Liaohou Xiao Bodhisattva is ready to continue to persuade.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu interrupted him rudely and said coldly: "There is no need to plead, I have made up my mind." ”

Xiang Minzhong and Wang Zeng couldn't sit still.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu really cut Yelu Angkor's words because of Kou Ji's words.

Then their situation in Liao is not good.

Those who are eligible to enter the palace of Emperor Yelu Longxu of Liao and help him give birth to a son.

His mother clan must have a lot of strength in the Liao country.

It would have been easy to send a troop of men and horses to kill them on their return journey.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of Liao, the foreign minister thinks that this move is inappropriate."

"The foreign minister also thinks that this move is inappropriate."

Xiang Minzhong and Wang Zeng left their seats one after another and bowed their hands.

Xiang Minzhong said bluntly: "As the saying goes, tiger poison does not eat children. His Majesty the Emperor of Liao should have a loving heart for his children, and when they make mistakes, you should teach them, not kill them. ”

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu stared at Xiang Minzhong and said in a deep voice: "Xiang Gong, I know the saying that tiger poison does not eat children. But I also know that you Song people have another saying, which is called the Son of Heaven breaking the law and committing the same crime as the common people. ”

Wang Zeng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty the Emperor of Liao, it is a taboo for the royal family to kill the prince without permission. Li Shimin, Taizong of the former Tang Dynasty, killed his brother and killed his son, and finally let the hundreds of years of inheritance of the former Tang Dynasty be spent in killing. ”

When Emperor Yelu Longxu heard this, he said in a deep voice: "The prince and a foreign minister can say such heartfelt words for me, and I am very relieved. But since I ascended the throne, I have gone through decades, and I have relied on clear rewards and punishments.

I can't break my rules of ruling the Great Liao just because I'm my son. ”

Xiang Minzhong and Wang Zeng still had to speak.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu interrupted them forcefully and said, "I have received the kindness of the two. When the two of them return, I will definitely give them a generous gift. But the two of them are foreign ministers after all, and they are not suitable to interfere in the politics of our Great Liao Dynasty. ”

Xiang Minzhong and Wang Zeng opened their mouths, but finally had to close their mouths again.

Then they both glared at Kou Ji.

Kou Ji looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression.

I tried my best to let the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu kill his son, but you have to protect him?

Is there any meaning in this?

Kou Ji thought about it again and again and decided to follow Xiang Minzhong and Wang Zeng's thoughts.

Although I don't know what the meaning of the two of them is.

But to be able to make the two of them look like this, presumably the life of Yelu Angkor is very important to them.

Kou Ji has time to kill Yelu Angkor, so there is no need to rush it.

Immediately, Kou Ji spoke: "Your Majesty the Emperor of Liao, you can ask the foreign minister, if my Great Song Dynasty encounters this kind of thing, how will I deal with it." The minister replied that he did not know.

But the foreign minister thought about it carefully just now and remembered the story of my dynasty as the king of Chu. ”

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu was stunned, and the civil and military forces of the Liao Manchu Dynasty were also stunned.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu pondered for a moment or two, and said: "But the old story of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Chu in the Song Dynasty, burning the East Palace? ”

Kou Ji nodded and said, "Not bad...... I made a terrible mistake against the King of Chu back then, but Emperor Taizong still remembered the friendship between father and son and spared his life. ”

When Emperor Liao Yelu Longxu heard this, he stared at Kou Ji and said, "Do you want to tell me that you should also remember the friendship between father and son and spare Angkor's life?" ”

Kou Ji nodded slowly.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu's gaze lingered on Kou Ji's body for a moment or two, and said slowly: "Then I will listen to you, spare Angkor's life, degrade him to a commoner, and be confined in Shangjing." ”

As soon as this remark came out.

Everyone in the bowl was stunned.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including the queen, the prince, the Shunsheng concubine, and the two Xiang Wang, whom the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu admired, did not persuade the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

But as soon as Kou Ji spoke, he persuaded the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu.

Even Kou Ji himself was stunned.

He just followed the thoughts of Xiang Minzhong and Wang Zeng, and casually persuaded him.

Unexpectedly, Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu actually listened to him.

That's too face-saving, isn't it?

Giving face makes people feel unreal.

Could it be that Kou Li's unreliable father is actually the brother of the Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu in the Great Song Dynasty?

As soon as this thought came out of Kou Ji's head, he quickly threw it out of his head.

The idea is so absurd and obviously unreasonable.

So why did Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu give him face like this?
