Chapter 354: Being old and not dying is a thief
The aristocrats of the Khitan are about to rebel every once in a while, they don't look at their own strength at all, they want to be emperors when they roll up their sleeves.
Therefore, the Khitan emperors of all dynasties will strengthen their palaces, which look quite majestic.
When Xiao Fengxian entered the palace with the Song envoy Gao Shan and Qin Hui, Yelu Yanxi was frowning, and when he saw the three people, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Did the Jurchens come in?" ”
Poor Emperor Tianzuo, a year ago he was the strongest Khitan lord in the world, and he took many of his domestic vassals to eat a fish feast.
Who knew that the Jurchen leader who was whipped and hung outside the camp by him had already led his troops to attack under his capital.
Xiao Fengxian rolled his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, the Jurchens are as imposing as a rainbow, and in my opinion, they may not be able to hold on to the tart if they are not wild." These Song envoys had a lot of lofty opinions, and they wanted to make a statement to His Majesty, so the ministers brought them to the palace. ”
After all, the Great Liao has not yet perished, and Xiao Fengxian is also afraid of persuading the emperor to abandon the capital and flee, and he will be liquidated in the future.
How can the Song people have this concern, even if the Great Liao is destroyed, it is just to run back to the Great Song Dynasty to continue to be an official.
When the country broke, the wind and rain were turbulent, and the people of Shangjing were panicked.
Yelu Yanxi was in a hurry to go to the doctor, and no matter why he had to listen to the opinions of the Song people at this time, it was better than being in a hurry here.
"What do you think?"
Gao Shant and Qin Hui glanced at each other, and their hearts thumped excitedly, the great credit was in front of them, and they had to be persuaded to run to the Great Song Dynasty.
Abducting the Liao lord to return to the Song Dynasty, he is about to take his mother's first step, Qin Hui is worthy of being born for this kind of big scene, he usually looks at Fu'er, and suddenly he is like a chicken blood, and he stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the foreign minister has something to say!" ”

Tokyo Bianliang, autumn rain is miserable.
In Fang Miaolian's small courtyard, a few girls leaned against the wall and chatted, and from time to time raindrops gathered and fell from the sycamore leaves.
The autumn outside is bleak and cold, but inside it is still embroidered with flowers, warm tent autumn yarn, Yang Lin's concubines, but they are generally wearing various colored gauze nets and woven skirts, and the makeup is graceful, and they are all sitting on chairs and embroidery stools at the moment.
Yang Lin hugged a son and a daughter by himself, glared at them angrily, and scolded: "You also give me some anger, especially you." He glared at Su Xianglian and said, "The master gave you less, what happened to you after you ate it?" ”
Fang Miaolian laughed out loud, slapped him, and said coquettishly: "What do you say, Le'er can speak, don't talk crazy in the future, teach the child badly." ”
Su Xianglian bit her lip, with a look of grievance, her sister Su Ningxiang had just become pregnant, and the two sisters slept together obviously because they had occupied Dalang for a long time, so why were they so uncompetitive.
When everyone was sharing the joy of family fun, Jin'er outside came in panting, stroked his chest and said, "Da Lang, Your Majesty is here." ”
Yang Lin put the child away, stretched out his hand, and several concubines helped him tidy up his robe, put on a robe, and went out to the outer courtyard to greet him.
In the guest hall, it was Zhao Ji in casual clothes, and the white-faced old man next to him was clearly Yang Jian.
Seeing Yang Lin come in and saluting, Zhao Ji chuckled lightly and said, "No need to be polite." ”
Yang Lin still hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, how can you be free today, come here." ”
Zhao Ji was a little weak-hearted, and said with a smile: "It's okay to be idle, it just so happened that Yang Jian said that he wanted to see how the elixir was refined, hehe." ”
Yang Lin didn't need to look at it, he knew that it was Zhao Ji who wanted to see it himself, and let Yang Jian take the blame.
He sneered in his heart, fortunately, Lao Tzu had already prepared, it turned out that in order to prevent the elixir prescription from leaking, Yang Lin had always been prepared by Lang Zhong after the division of labor, and asked Xu Shuwei to draw up the final prescription.
Then the process of refining medicine was also handed over to those little Taoist boys in his own house.
After all, Guo Tianxin was poured on refining medicine, and he used this method to trap people, how could he not be used to trap himself.
He smiled lightly and said, "Since that's the case, then come with Weichen." ”
In the main hall where Yang Lin meditated, the statue of Sanqing smiled very kindly and sat upright.
Below it are a hundred and ten futons, guarding a copper furnace, and a group of Taoist children are sitting on it, closing their eyes and recuperating.
Zhao Ji's eyes lit up, and he looked like it was real.
Compared with Guo Tianxin's, how immortal it is here, there is a people's stove.
Zhao Ji bowed to the statue of Sanqing, and then left the hall with the two of them.
After walking a few dozen steps outside, he asked with great interest: "Is this the inside, three elixirs come out every month?" ”
Yang Lin nodded, this pill is really good, Zhao Ji has a ruddy complexion recently, and he is a lot younger. But to say that you can become an immortal and live forever is pure nonsense.
It's just health care, plus a little nerve stimulation, anyway, it's better than eating various heavy metals such as mercury.
Zhao Ji was in Yang Lin's outer courtyard pavilion, chatted with him for a while, and was about to get up, a guard came outside, saying that it was Prime Minister Cai Jing who asked to see him.
Yang Lin and Zhao Ji were stunned at the same time, something must have happened for Cai Jing to find here.
"Let him in."
After a while, the guards led Cai Jing into the courtyard, he stepped forward to bow, and immediately said: "Official, the Khitan has sent a message, the Jinliao peace talks have collapsed, the two sides have torn their faces, the Khitan killed the envoy of the Jin State, and the Jin State sent troops to attack Shangjingfu, and now it is a fierce battle." ”
"I didn't expect Yelu Yanxi to be so kind!" Yang Lin clapped his hands and exclaimed.
In his opinion, Yelu Yanxi is just like Zhao Ji, he is a soft egg who is dizzy and surrenders, but he didn't expect to have such a tough side.
Originally, they had already torn their faces, and they still had their so-called messengers dry birds. Take the bitter hatred between Jin Liao and Jin Liao, there is nothing else, it is just that one will die when they meet, and they will not share the sky.
Cai Jing's expression was a little confused, and he said in a low voice: "Wen Yuan, it was our people who instigated a few young generals of the Khitan to take advantage of the night to send the Jurchen Mission... A fire burned to ashes. ”
...
Yang Lin didn't know what to say, he just felt a little like laughing, but he was embarrassed.
These few people carefully selected by themselves are really national treasure-level messengers, and in that kind of decadent dynasty where the lord is faint and mediocre, each of them is no less destructive than a heavy cavalry.
He muttered: "Shangjing City must be in danger, but I don't know where Yelu Yanxi is going to flee." Now Yelu Chun and Yelu Dashi are recruiting troops and horses in the land of Youyan, known as the eight battalions of the 'Resentful Army', Yelu Yanxi may not dare to go.
Yelu Chun, the Yan King of Khitan, is a prince, and has a history of rebellion, I think Yelu Yanxi will go to Xijing. ”
The Xijing of the Khitan is Datong, Shanxi, and the Datong Mansion in Xijing was built on the site of the Pingcheng of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the former city of the "Datong Army" of the Tang Dynasty.
Since the grandson of the Later Tang general Shi Jingjiao ceded the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun to the Khitan, the Khitan supported Shi Jingjiao to establish the Later Jin Dynasty as emperor. Since then, Yunzhou (Datong) has been assigned to Liaodi, and Liao Xingzong has been re-reigning for 13 years, and Yunzhou has been promoted to Xijing Datong Mansion.
There are also soldiers and horses of Daliao there, and they are loyal to the royal family, loyal to Yelu Yanxi, and most importantly, Datong Mansion is far away from the Jurchen Tartars.
Emperor Tianzuo, who had been frightened by the Jurchens, just wanted the Jurchens to be as far away as possible. He personally led an army of 700,000 troops, but he still couldn't defeat it, where did he still have the courage to fight to the death.
Zhao Ji didn't know much about these military affairs, but he listened to them with relish and was a good listener.
Yang Lin and Cai Jing glanced at each other, smiled knowingly, and said, "If Yelu Yanxi goes to Datong, our hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the northwest will have a place to use." As long as the generals of the various clans in the Khitan are in trouble, Yelu Yanxi will have to ask us for help in order to save his life and the throne.
When the time comes, it is the best policy to let him follow Shi Jingjiao and cede the land of Youyan to us in the Great Song Dynasty. Even sending troops is justifiable, isn't it better to carry the covenant and fight Liao with the Jurchens. ”
Cai Jing echoed: "The ministers are unwilling to cut Liao, so what's the matter? It is waiting for this opportunity. It doesn't cost me a single soldier of the Great Song Dynasty, and I can also make the greatest use of the Khitan and weaken the rising Jurchens. Sometimes it is better to wait and see what happens than to win a battle.
If they wiped out the Khitan together with the Jurchens and fueled the arrogance of the Jurchens, they would inevitably go south after annexing the Khitan. Since ancient times, there have been several powerful alien races that do not covet the prosperity of the Central Plains. ”
Zhao Ji was afraid: "If it weren't for the two Aiqing, I would have almost been killed by Liang Shicheng and Tong Guan." ”
The thief and the old Wang Ba, Yang Lin secretly slandered in his heart, Lao Tzu tried his best to stop Liang Shicheng from fighting Liao, you old thief is watching the excitement in the back, and now it has become the credit of the two of us? Have you consulted with me?
It's really old and not dead for thieves.
