Chapter 62: The Legendary Queen Mother

(Chapter 60: The brothers were locked for some reason, and they have been re-uploaded, which has delayed everyone's reading fluency, and the Great Demon King is here to say sorry to everyone.) ）

The person who was called the first emperor by Han Guangde and the uncle by Yelu Xiuke was the last emperor of the Liao State and the husband of the Empress Dowager Xiao.

It's just that the emperor's health is not good, and less than three days after Empress Dowager Xiao married him, he died. The withered royal family of the Liao Dynasty was left with only one Yelu Xiuke who was not as weak as the crown, and she was the natural supervisor of the country with the respect of the Queen Mother, and it was at this time that the Empress Dowager Xiao tightly grasped the power of the Liao State.

While suppressing the royal family of the side branch who coveted the throne, she easily moved between the various forces in the court, and used a group of virtuous ministers such as Han Guangde against public opinion, and it took several years for the Liao State to come out of the abyss of weak national strength.

But what followed was that after the Empress Dowager Xiao, who was in power and the opposition, continued to exclude dissidents, there was no longer a voice to oppose her in the current Liao court, and the subjects of Liao slowly began to accept this "uncrowned king", only knowing that there was a queen mother but not remembering that there was an emperor.

But over the years, Yelu Xiuke has continued to grow up, and his extraordinary military talent has also brought him one battle exploit after another, from a little-known deep palace royal family, to the "little prince" of the Weizhen Xia and Liao dynasties.

Those side branch royal families that were suppressed by Empress Dowager Xiao at the expense of bloody means also gradually gathered around Yelu Xiuke, resulting in the contradiction between the royal family represented by Yelu Xiuke and the foreign relatives represented by Empress Dowager Xiao.

The old handsome Han Guangde is naturally regarded by Yelu Xiuke as the queen mother's party, and there are inevitably some conflicts in daily military command and strategic deployment.

After Yelu Xiuke said this, he arched his hand towards Han Guangde, and then walked out of the main hall without looking back, only leaving the old handsome man on the spot.

Han Guangde's face was angry and he sat in front of the sand table, and the generals on both sides hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him. Yelu Huke's approach made this respected old marshal a little unable to step down in front of the generals.

"The Queen Mother has arrived!"

A singing came from outside the hall, and all the generals in the hall, including the old marshal Han Guangde, hurriedly went from the sand table to the door of the hall, knelt on one knee in unison, covered his left chest with his right hand, bowed his head and said in unison:

"Welcome to the Queen Mother!"

As soon as the words fell, a young woman walked in from outside, the woman was wearing a golden phoenix winged helmet, lined with a dark red plate collar and narrow sleeves, and a golden sunset red cloud armor on the outside, and a bright yellow phoenix and yellow curtain behind her, which reflected the whole person with heroic spirit.

This is the legendary woman in the mouth of the Liao country, the Queen Mother of the Great Liao Chengtian, Xiao Yan'er

"All the generals are in armor, you don't need to be polite, get up."

Xiao Yan'er stretched out her slender hand and motioned for the generals to get up.

The Liao people are the main ethnic group of the Khitans, who are nomadic people who grew up on horseback, so the average adult man is much taller than the Han people of the same age, and the same is true for women.

However, Empress Dowager Xiao is just an exception, even if such a majestic set of armor hangs on her body, it can't hide her original petiteness. If you walk on the street of the Xia Dynasty Wangjing, you will inevitably attract the side eyes of passers-by and even dignitaries.

But her eyes that were as clear as the moon shooting the cold river made the bloodthirsty men who galloped on the battlefield and crisscrossed the grassland dare not have the slightest evil thoughts about her stunner-like delicate body.

"All the generals, please go back first, I have something to say to the old man."

A person's appearance can be disguised by ornamentation, but the voice is always innate. This female voice with some immaturity reached the ears of the generals, and people couldn't help but have the illusion that the person who spoke was not as old as his own daughter, but no one dared to have the illusion of disobedience in his heart.

After the generals came out, the maid behind Xiao Yan'er gently closed the door of the hall, completely isolating the noise outside.

"Old Shuai, when are you going to attack Lanzhou?"

Xiao Yan'er looked at the sand table in the hall and asked Han Guangde softly.

Han Guangde pointed to a few small flags on the sand table and explained: "Queen Mother, at present, our military strength has completely advanced to the vicinity of Lanzhou, General Han has 30,000 in the north, General Tuoba in the southwest, General Bali in the west, and I personally lead 50,000 Chinese troops in the rear. At present, because I have not received the results of the negotiations with the Queen Mother, I have not yet rashly attacked. ”

When Xiao Yan'er heard what he said, she nodded her head and asked, "Where are Yelu Xiuko's men now?" ”

"More than 10,000 soldiers were stationed on the border between Lintao Fu and Sichuan, and they were on standby. Queen Mother, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not. Han Guangde arched his hand towards Xiao Yan'er and asked,

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

"As a vanguard army, Yelu Xiuke has already achieved a great job in capturing the important town of Gansu, so I left him in the rear of Lintao Mansion..."

"You're doing the right thing."

Before Han Guangde could finish speaking, Xiao Yan'er interrupted him, and continued: "Yelu Xiuke's military exploits are enough, and it is time to share some with others." The attack on Lanzhou City will be handed over to the other three generals. ”

"Yes! Dowager. ”

However, Han Guangde still captured some information from Xiao Yan'er's words.

"Did the Queen Mother say that the negotiations had been terminated?"

Xiao Yan'er propped her hands on the marble edge of the sand table, looked at the northwest battlefield full of gunsmoke, and said with a chuckle: "Unexpectedly, this old emperor is still a little backbone, and he has not forgotten their ancestors' family business. However, if he thought that he wanted to stop me with Lanzhou City, it would be too naïve. ”

As she spoke, she turned her head to look at Han Guangde who was standing next to her and said: "Old Shuai, the walls of Lanzhou City are high, and we lack enough siege equipment, I hope you had better lure them into a field battle, and the main purpose is to annihilate a large number of Han people's living forces, and strive to complete the battle." ”

Xiao Yan'er never interfered in the ever-changing battlefield situation commanded by Han Guangde, and she would only put forward her requirements and views on the entire battle situation to him after every important battle.

Han Guangde is obviously very useful to Empress Dowager Xiao's practice of respecting herself, and many of the ideas put forward by Xiao Yan'er usually make him, a veteran of his life, shine.

"Yes! Dowager. ”

-----------------------------

After An Yi introduced Liu Da to Gao Yingshu and got to know him, he left the Shu Palace. There were still a lot of things in Songling Village that he couldn't reassure, so he was busy rushing back to the barracks.

Before leaving, Gao Yingshu had to put a deep lip print on his comfortable cheek before he stopped.

An Yi rode his horse, and when he left the palace, his hand was still gently rubbing his face, and his heart said that since the last night in Jiangyun Tower, Gao Yingshu This girl has become more and more enthusiastic and unrestrained towards herself, and in front of her is completely a cardamom girl who has just opened her love, where is there still the appearance of the daughter of the palace and the nobles of Tianhuang.

Thinking like this, the corners of his mouth were already inadvertently rising slightly.

Deep down in every man's heart, he hopes that his woman will be noble and cold when she is in front of people, and when she is alone with herself, she will be hot and enthusiastic Liu Siyi, which is normal for people.

"Isn't this Gongzi An, what? Sitting on a horse alone, and amusing yourself? ”

A coquettish voice came from behind him, and An Yi looked back, this really meant that Cao Cao Cao had arrived, and it turned out that Liu Siyi and Ziyun were riding horses and following him.

An Yi smiled and arched his hand at them: "Oh~ Who should I be, this voice is like a lark, it turns out to be Miss Liu and Miss Ziyun." ”

After listening to him, Liu Siyi lightly covered his red lips, pointed in the direction of the Shu Wangfu behind him, and said with a smile: "Childe is really good at talking, no wonder even a proud girl like Miss Gao has been subjugated by you." ”

An Yi gently glanced at Liu Siyi, who was still dressed in red, and quipped: "I just don't know when I can submit Miss Liu too?" ”

Liu Siyi listened to his words, and pretended to be coquettish and said: "Gongzi An, you haven't written my couplet in front of the Qianyun Tower yet, so this is my sister's idea again?" ”

"This is the Qingtian lord who petitions for the people and eliminates thieves for the country, won't lie to me, a little woman?" As she spoke, she winked at An Yi, and the tips of her slender eyelashes were full of unconcealable flattery.

An Yi waved her hand, "Miss Liu, don't make fun of me, it's just that the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers and does what she can for the people, I don't know where Miss Liu came from this time." ”

"The war in the northwest is tight, so I took Ziyun to buy some daily use of Qianyun Tower, so as not to fight rice and gold at that time."

An Yi was very surprised that Liu Siyi, this person in the dust actually knew that the war was tight,

Liu Siyi saw the doubts in An Yi's heart, and said with some disapproval: "Didn't Childe smell * from this air?" ”

It seems that the decline of the war situation in the northwest is already a tacit secret, and ordinary people may not feel it, but Liu Siyi, a person with some official background, has already smelled the breath of the war.

Thinking of this, he suddenly asked Liu Siyi: "Miss Liu, do you have any news that the new garrison general is?" ”

Liu Siyi didn't know why An Yi asked her this, and prevaricated: "I'm afraid that this An Gongzi is asking the wrong person, whoever is the garrison general is just another person to collect filial piety and respect for my Qianyun Tower." ”

An Yi felt that Liu Siyi might have news from above, but looking at her reaction, whether she didn't know or didn't want to say it, it was not good to continue to ask the bottom of the matter, so she said casually: "What?" Can make Zeng Ziren run away in the wilderness, does the shopkeeper Liu still need to watch the face of the garrison general? ”

Liu Siyi flashed her black pearl-like eyes, looked at An Yi and said with a smile: "When did the regimental training make the adult make this Chengdu garrison, I promise not to hand over a penny to the adult." ”

"Hahaha." An Yi couldn't help laughing loudly and said, "Then Miss Liu has to wait." ”

Talking and laughing, he had already walked to the door of the Qianyun Tower, and after saying goodbye to the two beauties, he flew away in the direction of the city gate.

"Master, there's a letter from Ning Protector saying that the preparations are almost complete, just wait for us to transport the things here."

Liu Siyi kept a quiet purple rhyme all the way behind him, and only then did he say to her,

She looked at the back of An Yi and quickly whipped away, and asked Ziyun, "Among the few people the sect leader said, there should be him, right?" ”

"Hmm!" Ziyun Zhen nodded her head in response, and she saw that Liu Siyi had been staring at An Yi's back, so she replied knowingly: "Master, do you think we need to remind him a little?" ”

Liu Siyi seemed to be reminded by Ziyun, so he came back to his senses, shook his head at her and said, "Forget it, everyone has his own life, look at his creation." ”

As he spoke, Bian and Ziyun walked one after the other, turned around and entered the Qianyun Building.
