Chapter 152: Internal Strife
Li Zhang doesn't know much about Han Derang, but the Han Derang he knows is mainly the Han Derang in the romance, and he doesn't know much about Han Derang in real history.
For example, Li Zhang only knew that Han Derang was a Han Chinese, but he didn't know that Han Derang was later given the surname Yelu and renamed Yelu Longyun, although Han Derang had no heirs, but Empress Dowager Xiao passed several royal children to Han Derang as sons, even after death, there are still royal children who pass on to Han Derang as queens from time to time.
However, although Li Zhang didn't know the above, Yan Niang was very clear about Han Derang's affairs, and gave him a blank look at him at the moment, and then explained to him that Han Derang was given a surname and that the royal family was his heir.
"Awesome! People are dead, and he can still make the emperor of Liao respect him so much, but it's a pity that I was born a few years late, otherwise I really want to see this Han Derang! After listening to Yan Niang's story, Li Zhang's eyes couldn't help but widen and said.
The young man was ambitious, and then his fiancée was taken away, but he was not depressed because of this, but became the head of the Hanchen of the Liao State, and then became the fiancée of the queen mother, and also let the son of the rival in love do his filial piety for him. Throughout Han Derang's life, it is simply the standard for the male protagonist of the Internet in later generations.
"Of course, King Jin is very powerful, and it is with his help that the Empress Dowager Chengtian was able to create a situation of Zhongxing for my Daliao, but it is precisely because his credit is too great and his identity is too special, so there are conflicts among his heirs because of the problem of inheritance." Yan Niang spoke again at this time, King Jin is Han Derang's title, Liao inherited the Tang system, and Jin was the land of Longxing in the Tang Dynasty, so the title of King Jin is also extremely noble.
"By the way, just now you said that Han Derang has no heirs, so Empress Dowager Xiao selected a child from the royal family to inherit him, doesn't that mean that Yelu Yanshou is also a child of the royal family?" At this time, Li Zhang suddenly remembered that Yan Niang had said just now that Yelu Yanshou was Han Derang's son, and immediately asked again.
"Hehe, Yelu prolongs his life, and he is also worthy of the surname Yelu? In fact, he is not a Khitan at all, but a Han Chinese, and as for his relationship with the King of Jin, it is quite complicated......"
With Yan Niang's narration, Li Zhang finally understood Han Derang a little more, it turned out that Han Derang had no heirs, so he could only pass children from others to inherit his own incense, and in addition to Empress Dowager Xiao picking out children from the royal children to pass on to him, Han Derang also passed a child from his brother, and this child was Yelu Yanshou.
Speaking of which, a man has no heirs, and generally raises children from his brother, so that the child has the same surname as him after all, and he should inherit the incense in the family, so Yelu Yanshou was originally surnamed Han, and he changed his surname to Yelu after passing to Han Derang, and in his opinion, the status and family property left by Han Derang should be inherited by him.
But at the beginning, the Empress Dowager Xiao passed on her grandson Yelu Zongye to Han Derang, Yelu Zongye's father is now the emperor of Liao, Yelu Longxu, it can be said that he was originally the prince, and he was succeeded to Han Derang by the Empress Dowager Xiao, so after Han Derang's death, he also officially inherited the throne of King Jin left by Han Derang, as well as most of the family property.
However, although Yelu Longxu gave all Han Derang's inheritance to his son, he did not treat Yelu Yanshou badly, and gave Yelu Yanshou the title of the former Duke of Chu to Yelu Yanshou, and also named him as the privy envoy of the Southern Yuan, in charge of a considerable part of the military power.
But Yelu Yanshou is an ambitious person, and he is not satisfied with these things that Yelu Longxu gave him, but he is bent on regaining the throne of his father Han Derang, so he has always been unable to get along with Yelu Zongye, and even contradicted Yelu Longxu several times.
At first, Yelu Longxu could still see Han Derang's face and let him a little, but as Yelu Yanshou became more and more arrogant, in the end, Yelu Longxu finally couldn't stand him and demoted his official position again and again, but Yelu Yanshou did not repent at all, just some time ago, Da Shi sent a delegation to Liao to ask for relatives, Yelu Longxu also wanted to take advantage of this to climb some relationship with Da Shi, after all, being close to relatives is nothing more than giving a woman and some property, but it may bring countless times the benefits in the future.
However, although Yelu Longxu agreed to make peace, he was worried about choosing an envoy to send his relatives, after all, the big food was too far away, even if the Liao State was strong, it could not guarantee the safety of this way, and even if everything went well, it would take a few years to come and go, and the envoy to send relatives also needed a weighty nobleman to take on it, but who would be willing to spend such a long time to send relatives, and even risk their lives?
In this case, Yelu Yanshou was recommended because he offended too many people, and Yelu Longxu was tired of Yelu Yanshou for a long time, so he just took this opportunity to transfer him out, so that his ears could be quiet, so in the end, Yelu Yanshou was designated as an envoy.
Yelu Yanshou was also furious after knowing about this, but the emperor's order had been issued, and he had no choice, so in the end he could only reluctantly lead the delegation to leave Liao, but Yelu Yanshou did not give up, so he came up with a way, that is, if the princess died, he would not need to go to the big food again, as for how the princess died, of course he had a way to make the princess die in an accident.
However, when Yelu Yanshou was discussing with his confidants how to kill the princess, that is, Yan Niang, she didn't expect Yan Niang to overhear it, which made her also very frightened, so she had been planning to escape, but she couldn't find a chance before, until that day Li Zhang and Yelu Yanshou had a conflict, so that most of the mission was crowded to the front, and when the princess's car was unattended, Yan Niang found a chance to escape.
"Then why didn't you flee somewhere else, but to our restaurant?" After listening to Yan Niang's story, Li Zhang asked again, and his eyes were constantly staring at each other.
"I ...... I don't know the city of Tokyo, even if I escape the mission, I have nowhere to go, and when you and Yelu Yanshou clashed that day, I also saw it in the back, so I thought that the most dangerous place was also the safest place, so I found clothes and mixed into the restaurant, but I didn't have any bad intentions, I just wanted to find a hiding place! Yan Niang said with a pitiful expression again.
"Hmph, whether you have the intention of harming others or not, but you have put us in danger by doing this now, Yelu put the basin on my head before he extended his life, saying that I deliberately created a conflict and robbed you, the court didn't believe it at all, but now you appear in my restaurant, how can I explain it now?" Li Zhang snorted coldly at this time, if his charges are confirmed, not only him, but also Huozi and Ugly Niang will be affected.
