Chapter 587: Spy on Xiao Xiaoxian

Zhongjing Dadingfu, many Song people think that Zhongjing is the capital of Liao, but in fact, the real capital of Liao, Shangjing, Zhongjing is only one of the accompanying capitals, but later as the politics, economy, and military of Liao began to move south, so the political center slowly shifted to Zhongjing, after all, compared to Shangjing in the north, Zhongjing is far stronger than Shangjing in terms of climate and economy, and the Khitan nobles are also more willing to live in Zhongjing, and even the emperor's bowl is also moved around Zhongjing.

In a private house in the northeast of the Chu Palace, Ye Luren stood in front of the window first, and the room was dark and unlit, so that it was not easy for others to find out his abnormality here, and opposite him, it was the brightly lit Chu Palace, although a fire before burned down half of the Chu Palace, but Xiao Yunjin quickly ordered to rebuild the Chu Palace, and all the costs were borne by the imperial court, so now the entire Chu Palaces are full of craftsmen who work, even at night.

The remaining half of the Chu Wangfu was not involved in the fire, Xiao Xiaoxian did not move to other places, and still lived in the Chu Wangfu, and Yelu Renxian's task now is to keep an eye on Xiao Xiaoxian to prevent him from making any changes, and even if necessary, Xiao Xiaoxian can be controlled by extraordinary means.

However, Yelu Renxian also knew that he was actually rejected by Yelu Zongzhen, after all, when he decided to launch a coup d'état in advance, he was the only one who objected, and as a result, Yelu Xisun and Yelu Zhirang and others were directly involved in the coup, and he could only be sent to Zhongjing to monitor Xiao Xiaoxian, especially since he had very few people in his hands, and Zhongjing was Xiao Xiaoxian's territory, and it was basically wishful thinking to control him, and it was not easy to monitor him.

Thinking of the above, Yelu Renxian couldn't help but sigh, even now, he still felt that Yelu Zongzhen was still too anxious, such a big thing as a coup, they couldn't be fully prepared at all, and they were ready to launch in a hurry, which was too risky in his opinion, if it succeeded, it was good, but if it failed, I am afraid that they would also fall into a place of no return.

In addition, what worries Yelu Renxian even more is that the overseas has not been peaceful recently, and Li Yuanhao of the party was defeated by the Great Song Dynasty, and as a result, he entered the Liao border to burn and loot, and the garrison on the border could not be suppressed at all, and they also took advantage of Li Yuanhao's incident to leave Xiao Xiaoxian in Zhongjing.

However, compared to Li Yuanhao, the Great Song Dynasty is the confidant of the Liao State, although the Liao State has always looked down on the Song people, thinking that the Song people are vulnerable under the iron hooves of the Liao State, but recently he clearly feels that a change is taking place within the Song State, and this defeat of the party is a clear proof, especially I heard that the firearms of the Song State are extremely sharp, and it is also the advantage of the honor guard firearms, they can easily defeat the party items, and now they have opened up the channel with the Western Regions, if the Song State is allowed to develop again, it will inevitably threaten the Great Liao.

"General, the King of Chu stayed in the study for a while after dinner, and now he has returned to his room to rest!" While Yeluren was pondering, he suddenly saw a man dressed as a craftsman quietly walking into the room to report.

This person is the person sent by Yelu Renxian to the Chu Wangfu to monitor Xiao Xiaoxian, as Xiao Xiaoxian, it is really not easy to spy on him, fortunately, the Chu Wangfu was burned before, and now there are many craftsmen working all night, so he arranged for his subordinates to enter the mansion, and contact the people who bought in the mansion, so as to pass on the news of Xiao Xiaoxian.

"Well, keep an eye on it, and report it every two hours!" Ye Luren listened first and then nodded and said, Xiao Xiaoxian still has no abnormalities today, usually he likes to go to the study after dinner, and then go to the bedroom to rest, during this time he almost figured out all the rules of Xiao Xiaoxian's activities.

The craftsman agreed, and immediately quietly retreated, and the room fell into silence again, but Yelu Renxian's train of thought had been interrupted at this time, and during this time, in order to monitor Xiao Xiaoxian, he was also exhausted day and night, and he also felt very tired at this time, thinking that Xiao Xiaoxian had also rested, so he relaxed, and immediately walked to the side of the bed to lie down to rest, but as soon as his head touched the pillow, he fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept this night, but when Yeluren opened his eyes again, he found that the sunlight outside the window was a little dazzling, which made him immediately jump up from the bed, and immediately walked quickly to the door, and there were also his henchmen waiting outside the door, and when he saw him, he immediately saluted and said, "General, you are awake." ”

"Is there anything abnormal over there in the Chu Palace?" Yeluren asked as soon as he spoke.

"General rest assured, the people below will come back every two hours to report according to your instructions, everything is as usual on the side of the Chu Wangfu, just now I came to report carefully, saying that Xiao Xiaoxian went to the Privy Council after having breakfast as usual, and now our people have been staring outside the Privy Council." The henchmen outside the door reported again.

Hearing the report from his subordinates, this made Yelu Renxian finally breathe a sigh of relief, and then after eating something hastily, he immediately put on makeup and sneaked away, and came to the stronghold outside the Privy Council, Xiao Xiaoxian's usual range of activities is not large, either in the Chu Palace, or in the Privy Council, so there are people staring at both places.

Xiao Xiaoxian is currently the privy envoy of the North Court, plus Situ, and also the political order, the power of the court is almost in his hands, and the Privy Council has also become the center of the court, all the affairs of the court and the central government must be sent here for Xiao Xiaoxian's approval, and some of the important government affairs will also be sent to the bowl for Xiao Yunjin's approval.

It is precisely because of the importance of the Privy Council that people come and go here, and Yelu Renxian has to keep people staring at it all the time, lest he don't know when Xiao Xiaoxian leaves, after all, Yelu Zongzhen's side is already preparing to do it in Hot Spring Mountain, and it is estimated that it will be in the past two days, so Xiao Xiaoxian's side must be staring at death.

Just stared at the sun until the sun set in the west, Yelu Renxian and the others didn't see Xiao Xiaoxian's carriage leave, but at this time it was almost dark, according to Xiao Xiaoxian's previous habits, he should have left the Privy Council and returned to the Chu Palace, could it be that there are many government affairs today, so he had to stay in the Privy Council for a while longer?

Thinking of the above, Yelu Renxian could only wait patiently, but he still didn't see Yelu Renxian's carriage appear, and finally it was dark, and the Privy Council, which was crowded during the day, was quiet at this time, and even the scribes and petty officials of the Privy Council left, but Xiao Xiaoxian still did not appear.

"Oops, send someone to the Privy Council at once!" Yelu Renxian finally felt that something was wrong at this time, and immediately ordered decisively, and at the same time showed an anxious look on his face, if there was an abnormality on Xiao Xiaoxian's side, would it mean that there would also be a problem with the coup d'état in Hot Spring Mountain?
