In the Daqing Hall of Bianliang, Yelu Tiege held the dragon chair with both hands, he slowly looked around this magnificent palace, and he couldn't help but feel a hot current in his heart. The main hall of the imperial palace of the Song Dynasty is the entire imperial palace, the entire Bianliang, and the center of the Great Song Dynasty. After several dynasties of continuous repair and construction, the whole hall is magnificent and splendid. The words on the plaque of the palace are all the handwriting of the Southern Dynasty, the carved beams and paintings are beautiful, in addition to the auspicious patterns such as dragons and phoenixes, unicorns, turtles and cranes, bats, etc., the landscapes, flowers and birds are taken from the famous scenery of various places in the Great Song Dynasty. Sitting on the dragon chair, looking down at the main hall, it seems that the entire Great Song Dynasty is trampled on the soles of his feet.

An inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of Yelu Tiege's mouth, and he bowed slightly towards Zhao Zhifu and Qin Hui who were standing next to him, and said with a smile: "I finally understand what is going on with the Son of Heaven of the Southern Dynasty." However, this is not the place where we Khitans should be. ”

Zhao Zhifu's heart moved, and he said secretly, could it be that the Liao Emperor did not have the intention of staying for a long time? He reluctantly agreed, and together with Qin Hui, the governor of the political affairs, followed behind Yelu Tiege, the privy envoy of the Northern Court of Liao, and the three of them walked out of the empty Daqing Palace. A team of palace tent guards led the war horses and waited in front of the main hall, and Yelu Tiege stepped on the shoulders of a personal soldier to get on the horse in front of the palace, and turned back to Zhao Zhifu and said: "Remember, before the sun rises tomorrow, all the officials above the seventh grade in Bianliang will go to His Majesty's Imperial Ledger Dynasty to meet the Emperor of the Song Kingdom." ”

"Yes—" Zhao Zhifu bowed his head, only to hear the sound of horses' hooves gradually moving away. He just raised his head, and after a while, the palace that could accommodate tens of thousands of people was full of traces of urine and feces, and Qin Hui sighed helplessly.

Daqing Hall is the palace where the state holds a ceremony and the emperor fasts. Even if it is the lord of the ruler, he has to dismount in front of this palace, but now, it is a place where the cavalry of the northern captives come and go freely. The emperor of the Liao State liked the chariots and horses and camps, and did not like to live under the roof. Yelu Tiege led his troops into the city this time, urging Zhao Zhifu and Qin Hui to step up the collection of gold and silver money to compensate the Liao army in Bianliang City, and occasionally came to the Daqing Palace, and the Song Emperor Zhao Ke and a cadre of the clan were still detained in the Liao military camp outside the city.

After Tokyo stayed in Shaowu Xiancheng, he committed suicide and martyred, and there was no one in charge of Bianliang City. I don't know if it was to abide by the oath or have other plans, the Liao Emperor Yelu Dashi put Zhao Zhifu and Qin Hui back, maintained the situation in Bianliang City, and forcibly levied gold, silver, money and silk in the palace, the treasury and the people, as a condition for the Liao army not to enter the city in person to plunder. After the peace was negotiated, the Banzhi guards and the forbidden army in Bianliang City fled a lot, and the remaining forbidden troops were forced to leave the city and camp in the wilderness under the supervision of the Liao army.

On the afternoon of the next day, hundreds of ministers of the Song Kingdom, dressed in purple and crimson official robes, slowly walked out of the Nanxun Gate according to the queue of the previous dynasty. Outside the imperial account of Yelu Dashi, this imperial account is huge, magnificent and comparable to the palace, which can accommodate thousands of people to stand, the courtiers walked into the imperial account, and immediately saw Yelu Dashi and Zhao Ke sitting side by side in the middle of the big tent, the table on the left side of the big tent was full of dignitaries and dignitaries of the Liao State, and the table on the right side was empty, which was reserved for the ministers of the Song State, the number of seats was not enough, Yelu Tiege had been informed in advance, only high-ranking officials above the fourth grade were qualified to sit down.

"The official family, the official family!"

"Official!"

"Official! It's too late! ”

Although they had expected it, the ministers were still pleasantly surprised. Some people wept bitterly on the spot, and the situation was a little chaotic for a while. Zhao Ke sat beside Yelu Dashi with a pale face. He is usually locked in a stable with the concubines, and he was originally next door to Zhao Zhifu and Qin Hui in the stable, and he can still comfort each other, but a few days ago, even Qin Hui and Zhao Zhifu had no news. Zhao Ke has been worried for the past few days, he doubts that Yelu Dashi has obtained Bianliang, is he going to start killing useless people, maybe he has already killed Zhao Qin Erxiang, and then it will be his turn.

When he was about to be taken out in the afternoon, Zhao Ke held on to the pillar and refused to leave, refusing to listen to what he said, or the palace tent army forcibly dragged him out. Came to the royal account, Yelu Dashi was covered with this smile, and asked him to sit side by side on the dragon chair, Zhao Ke only felt like falling into a dream, more and more frightened, the two trembled, only to die, until Yelu Dashi was angry, Zhao Ke trembled and sat down with half of his ass stained on the bed. After Zhao Ke softened, Yelu Dashi regarded him as air, and discussed with the important ministers and generals of the Liao State how to divide the troops and attack the southeast prefecture and county. Although there are still hundreds of thousands of remnants of the forbidden army in the Song Kingdom, the distribution is heavy in the west and light in the east. Instead of fighting hard with the remnants of the Song army in the west, the Liao army should drive south with a partial division and light cavalry, and first take the southeast prefectures and counties. The northern forbidden army relied on the southeast to pay the grain. Once the southeast fell into the hands of the Liao State, the Song State was gone. Under the pressure of the Song Emperor's edict and the lack of food and wages, the camps in Xijing, Hedong and the southeast had to surrender. The more Zhao Ke listened, the more frightened he became, but when he thought that Yelu Dashi was not shy away from discussing these important military matters, and obviously regarded himself as a dead man, he was like falling into the ice valley again, and he could no longer pay attention to what they were discussing. At this time, the ministers of the Song State who came to meet him came to the outside of the tent.

Yelu Dashi looked at the ministers of the Song Kingdom in the tent with a smile, he noticed that Zhao Ke beside him was trembling violently, and his heart was even more disdainful, he turned his head slightly, and gestured with his eyes, Tong Guan, who was standing next to him, hurriedly cleared his throat, and said in a loud voice: "Okay-worship-big ceremony-" He deliberately dragged out his voice and shouted three times in a row.

The courtiers of the Song Kingdom looked at each other, and this ceremony of three kneels and nine bows to His Majesty was the courtesy of the courtiers to the emperor. When Yelu Dashi was an envoy of the Liao State to Bianliang, he refused to bow down to the emperor Zhao You, which made Zhao You furious, but because he had no status as a monarch and minister, he couldn't say that he was not coming, so he could only be angry with Li Ruobing, the supervisor of the Duting West Station. Now the emperor of the Liao State sits side by side with the official family in a big way, if he visits the official family with a bow salute, it is equivalent to paying homage to Yelu Dashi, I am afraid that from now on, the name of the monarch and the minister will not be clear.

"Alas-" Prime Minister Zhao Zhifu sighed, and his eyes interlaced with Qin Hui, the governor of the political affairs, with a trace of bitterness and impatience in his eyes, and slowly knelt down. After bending the knees, it is difficult to straighten again. In the past few days, because of the Liao army's urging of gold and silver, the two of them have lost their names in their lives, and they have been scolded by the people of Bianliang behind their backs. Seeing that the two ministers took the lead in kneeling down, several courtiers who were usually close to Zhao Qianfu Qin Hui knelt down. Other Song courtiers lost their claims.

Hundreds of Great Song courtiers knelt down half-pushed and half-knelt on the ground. On the left sat the Liao officials, looking at them condescendingly.

The Great Song Dynasty is a scholar and the emperor to rule the world together, as if the Beijing officials are the most valuable, almost all of the hundreds of officials in the account are from Jinshi, there are many protégés all over the world, impressed them, Yelu Dashi Zhi is proud, and wants to laugh loudly, he smiled and raised his hand, and was about to say "Zhongqing is flat", suddenly the smile on his face suddenly froze, his eyes were cold, near the door of the imperial account, several Song courtiers were still standing, except for one official robe purple, the others were scarlet official robes. Because they were standing in the back, they were not very eye-catching, and at this time, as Yelu Dashi's gaze turned around, the faces of the Liao magnates were full of anger, and many people put their hands on the knife. In the imperial account of the emperor of Liao, hundreds of Song courtiers bowed their heads and bowed, and these few people standing were particularly abrupt, and it was difficult not to attract attention.

Yelu Dashi's face was cloudy, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Who is standing below? ”

"Wu Angying, the squire of the Great Song Dynasty Ministry of Works." The tall man in the purple robe said loudly. Yelu Dashi's brows furrowed slightly, and his ears were extremely sharp.

"Xu Rubi, a member of the Great Song Army!" A person next to him had thin cheeks and said in a deep voice. Xu Rubi and Wu Angying stood together, as if they heard the roll call outside the Jiying Palace.

"The Great Song Palace's servant Shi Pan Yuanjie!" Pan Yuanjie's face was like a crown of jade, and he stood not far from Xu and Wu.

"Huang Boyu, the Great Song Dynasty Inspector Imperial History!" "Han Zongdan, the servant of the Great Song Palace!" Han Zongdan, Huang Boyu and Pan Yuanjie stood far away, and the three of them looked at each other and smiled, they often sang and harmonized when impeaching traitors.

"Zhang Yinshu, a member of the Great Song Rite Department!" Zhang Yinshu frowned and looked at his colleagues who were kneeling on the ground, his eyes full of hatred.

"Lin Zhongfu, the official of the Kaifeng Mansion of the Great Song Dynasty!" Lin Zhongfu calmly arched his hand towards Yelu Dashi and the Liao officials during the banquet.

"The Great Song Dynasty Privy Deputy Cheng Zhi Chen Xianyan!" His eyes were fixed on Jerodashi.

"The Great Song Dynasty Officials are a member of the Wailang Qian Shou!" Qian Shou glanced at the purple-clad Shangguan with an expressionless face.

The entire imperial account was surprisingly quiet, only listening to these Song State officials report their official positions and names, Yelu Dashi's face became more and more gloomy, his heart moved, and he glanced at Tong Guan, these people were actually the same as the list that Tong Guan opened to him, so that only the privy envoy Shao Wu and the Ministry of Rites Lang Deng Su were missing, both of whom were the most active Song courtiers in the main battle.

Yelu Dashi frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "As a courtier, why don't you worship when you see the emperor?" Tong Guan also rebuked: "Bold! "It was he who offered this plan to Yelu Dashi to subdue the ministers of Bianliang of the Song State, and the clinker became strange and abrupt, how could he not be angry and corrupt.

Wu Angying smiled slightly, looked directly into Yelu Dashi's eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I am a dignified minister of China, and I will not kneel to the king of Hulu Diyi." He looked at the other people, Xu Rubi and the others smiled and said yes, as if Wu Angying said a simple and self-evident truth.

Looking at the calm appearance of these people, especially Wu Angying's eyes full of disdain, Yelu Dashi only felt a burst of anger attacking his heart, and the green tendons on his forehead jumped slightly, staring at Wu Angying, if his eyes could kill, this person would have already been in a different place. His imperial power was added, but Wu Angying didn't seem to be aware of it, and he still looked at Yelu Dashi without giving in, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
