On the morning of the second day, the minister's door stood outside the main hall early and waited, the stone road paved with white marble was still white, the palaces on both sides were lined up, it was not majestic, the minister's door was still divided into two sides, the left side was still headed by Xiao Wuna, and the right side was headed by Yelu Yan.

However, there is one more minister on the left, this person is more than half a hundred years old, dressed in court clothes, with a gray beard hanging down on his chest, and his face is full of wrinkles, but this person's eyes are bright, his waist is straight, energetic, smiling, and Xiao Wuna and others chatted with each other There is a momentum of talking and laughing and pointing out the country, this person's name is Yao Jingxing, he is a veteran of the two dynasties, and his military achievements are impressive.

Xiao Wuna's smiling Yao Jingxing clasped his fists and said, "Congratulations to the teacher on his victory." ”

Yao Jingxing smiled and said, "Why should you and my master and apprentice be so polite? By the way, the kid I recommended to you, Yelu Yuzhu, is okay? ”

Xiao Wuna nodded and said, "He is worthy of being a subordinate of the teacher, he is shrewd and capable, and he is a talent." ”

Yao Jingxing smiled, looked at Yelu Yan, who was standing on the right, with a somewhat ugly face, and said, "Lord Yelu Yan's face is so ugly, isn't I welcome to come?" ”

Yelu Yanqiang squeezed out a little smile and hugged his fist at Yao Jingxing and said: "How can it, the old general's victory is really a great joy, congratulations." ”

Yao Jingxing suddenly said sharply: "Who instigated the temple built by the emperor and wasted the people and money?" ”

Yelu Yan was startled, and her legs were a little weak.

At this time, Xiao Fengxian, who was standing behind him, said loudly: "It is the emperor's intention to build the temple, it is the emperor's sage, and our adults are just suggestions, does the old gentleman think that the emperor's meaning is wrong?" ”

Yao Jingxing said disdainfully: "Who are you, you deserve to talk to me." ”

Xiao Fengxian was unmoved, and said calmly: "In the court, only the emperor has the power not to let people speak, is the old gentleman really dizzy and thinks that he is the emperor." ”

Yao Jingxing was a little angry, gritted his teeth and said, "What a pair of sharp teeth, good, good."

At this time, a eunuch's shout suddenly came, "The emperor has arrived." ”

Yao Jingxing snorted coldly, glared at Xiao Fengxian, and turned his head.

Xiao Fengxian didn't even look at Yao Jingxing.

When Yelu Hongji sat on the throne in a yellow robe, he looked at it and said: "Lord Yao Jingxing quelled the rebellion and returned to the dynasty, it is really a great joy, I am very happy, the old general is worried about the country, it is really hard work, I named the old general as the king of Han, and gave ten thousand households." ”

Yao Jingxing hurriedly knelt down and thanked him.

Wait until Yao Jingxing returns to the train. At this time, Yelu Yan came out of class and said: "Your Majesty, yesterday someone from the Jurchen Wanyan tribe said that the leader of their tribe was entrusted by the Buddha to dream and came to offer Haidongqing, and I don't know why, I specially reported to the emperor. ”

Yelu Hongji was overjoyed in his heart, and laughed and said: "It's really blessed by the Buddha, haha, okay, you quickly let the Wanyan tribe immediately enter the sea to offer Haidongqing, as for the location?" It's Nanjing City, I have to go to Nanjing City Fengfu Temple to repay my vows this time. ”

At this time, Xiao Wuna hurriedly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, no, the Jurchen Wanyan tribe has the intention of rebellion, as for the sacrifice of Hai Dongqing, it is their trick, the emperor, you can't be confused by them, we should raise troops to attack the Jurchen." ”

Yelu Hongji was a little displeased and said: "Hai Dongqing can drive away ghosts, I built a temple the day before yesterday, it must have moved the Buddha, so that the Buddha dreamed of the Wanyan tribe, the Buddha chose the Wanyan tribe, but you said that he was a disloyal tribe, it is really unreasonable." ”

Xiao Wuna said: "Your Majesty, it is wrong for you to build a temple and build a large number of buildings, and now the people are difficult to survive the winter, which will definitely lead to famine. ”

Yelu Hongji interrupted Xiao Wuna's words and said, "Don't say it, Xiao Wuna, do you think that if you have made some merits, you can do whatever you want?" ”

Xiao Wuna suddenly knelt down and said: "I only know that the people are the foundation of the country, but the Buddha is not, the emperor is the son of heaven, and the country should be the most important." ”

Yelu Hongji was furious, stood up and pointed at Xiao Wuna and said: "You shut up for me, I don't allow you to be so rebellious, from now on, you don't want to be in the court, and the prince doesn't need you to teach." ”

Yao Jingxing hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Lord Xiao Wuna is dedicated to the country, but there are some mistakes in his words, and I hope the emperor will be gracious." ”

Yelu Hongji snorted coldly and said, "There is no need to say it. He walked away.

Only Xiao Wuna, who was kneeling on the ground, and Yao Jingxing, who was standing outside the court, were left with a blue face, as well as those ministers who watched the jokes.

Yelu Yan and Xiao Feng walked out of the court first, and Yelu Yan smiled and said to Xiao Wuna: "Why does Lord Xiao do this? But it's okay, there is less Lord Xiao in the court, and His Majesty the Emperor is better to have cleaner ears, Lord Xiao doesn't think about himself, but also thinks about the emperor. He smiled and left.

Xiao Wuna looked at Yelu Yan's back, and said with some discouragement: "God, just got rid of a Yelu Yixin, and another Yelu Yan came, despicable villain, is God really not bless Da Liao?" ”

Yao Jingxing helped Xiao Wuna up, and said helplessly: "Now, the emperor is bewitched by the traitorous minister of Na Yeluyan, we as courtiers should cheer up and get rid of the evil, it is our duty to be a courtier, Xiao Wuna I know will not be discouraged because of this." ”

Xiao Wuna said with some shame: "Yes, Master, you are right, we are courtiers, we should share our worries for the country, how can we give up on ourselves?" ”

Yelu Yuzhu said: "I don't think so, traitors all appear because of a faint king, then Yelu Hongji is a faint king, naturally the traitors around him are not clean." ”

When Yao Jingxing heard this, his face turned blue with anger, and he said, "Yelu Yuzhu, as a courtier, how can you say such words? You are a rebel and a thief, why did I recommend you to Lord Xiao Wuna? You've really disappointed me. “

Xiao Wuna also said: "Yes, as courtiers, we should only be loyal, how can we say that the king is not? ”

Yelu Yuzhu lowered his head and muttered, "But, that's the truth." ”

When Yao Jingxing heard this, he was angry, a mouthful of blood spurted out, pointed at Yelu Yuzhu and said, "You, are you going to be angry with me?" ”

Seeing this situation, Yelu Yuzhu hurriedly said: "General, you dissipate your anger, I, I won't say this." ”

Yao Jingxing said: "You swear, I want you to swear allegiance to Da Liao." ”

Yelu Yuzhu shook his head, these days he can be said to have suffered the anger of those high-ranking officials, so his temper is also very bad, and he said hatefully: "I, Yelu Yuzhu, is only loyal to Mingjun, if it is a faint king, why should I Yelu Yuzhu be loyal." ”

Yao Jing said angrily: "You get out of here." ”

Seeing that the old general was angry, Yelu Yuzhu shook his head helplessly and left silently.

Yao Jingxing gasped angrily, and said with a flushed face: "Yelu Yuzhu, I really misjudged you, I thought he was a pillar of the country, but I didn't expect him to be a chaotic minister and thief." ”

Xiao Wuna said: "Old general, Yu Zhu is still too young, don't be angry, Yu Zhu is really talented, he just lacks experience today, and Da Liao will have to rely on him in the future." ”

Yao Jingxing took a few deep breaths, diverted the topic, and said, "Okay, don't talk about this, don't you say that the Jurchen Wanyan tribe will rebel?" This time, I will appoint your son as the guard of Ningchuan Prefecture, and the chief soldier of Huanglong Mansion, Dagong Ding, is your subordinate, so you can go to Huanglong Mansion. ”

Xiao Wuna hesitated for a moment and said, "Teacher, if you make an official privately, the emperor will blame you." ”

Yao Jingxing smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm staying in Beijing, and it's okay to appoint a small official position." And I'm also old, and I don't have a few days to live, so if the emperor wants to blame, he can blame it. ”

Xiao Wuna was very moved in his heart, he thought that he would not be able to contribute to the country, but he didn't expect that the peak would turn around, and what he was most worried about was the Jurchen matter, so he said excitedly: "Master, I will definitely live up to your high expectations, as long as I Xiao Wuna is here, the Jurchen Wanyan tribe will not be able to set off the storm." ”

Yao Jingxing nodded, happy in his heart, and said: "Xiao Wuna, I just wronged you, with your talent, it is not a problem to be crowned the king and worship the prime minister, but now, but you can rest assured, the general soldier of Huanglong Mansion is the Grand Duke Ding, and he used to be your subordinate, I will let him obey your dispatch." There are nearly 3,000 cavalry in Huanglong Mansion, plus the 2,000 cavalry from Ningchuan Prefecture led by your son, and now I can only draw these troops. ”

Xiao Wuna thought for a while and said: "The Jurchens don't have many cavalry, even if they are united, the infantry will not exceed 10,000, and it is located in the plain, if nothing happens, 5,000 cavalry will be enough to deter the Jurchens." ”

Yao Jingxing smiled, clasped his fists and said, "Okay, you can go to Huanglong Mansion and take care all the way." ”

Xiao Wuna also clenched his fists and said, "Old general, take care." ”
