Zhao Kuangyin saw Yang Lian leaving, and suddenly realized one thing, there are only a few people who can live in Honglu Temple, since Yang Lian is not looking for the prince, it must be the Khitans, so it seems that Yang Lian and the Khitan people have ulterior secrets?

Zhao Kuangyin's heart was alive, and he immediately ran back, at this time, Guo Rong was eating breakfast, and he was indignant. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info this kind of injustice comes from the differential treatment of Honglu Temple, he can only nibble on steamed buns here, but the Khitan people eat spicy and drink fragrant, Honglu Temple treats the Great Zhou and Khitan people with a completely different attitude, which makes him very unhappy.

Zhao Kuangyin suddenly walked in, which surprised him a little, Pingsuli, Zhao Kuangyin has been practicing martial arts for a long time, at least he will not come back until the middle of the morning, why did he come back so early today?

"Lord Wang, Yang Lian has gone to see the Khitans, and he has brought a few people." Zhao Kuangyin said.

Guo Rong narrowed his eyes and said, "The person who came is not good." As he spoke, he put down half of the steamed bun in his hand, stood up, and paced. For Yang Lian, Guo Rong sometimes can't guess. For example, when he occupied Yanzhou, Yunzhou and other places, he was in a position with the Great Zhou. coincided with the Khitan people going south, and the Zhou State was attacked from both sides, if the generals with the troops were Shi Jingjiao and others, the best choice for the Tang Dynasty was to join the Khitans and attack the Zhou State together.

But Yang Lian didn't do this, but signed a contract with Da Zhou, but only took hostages, which allowed Da Zhou to deal with the Khitans with all his might. From the perspective of interests, Yang Lian is too pedantic, but on the other hand, Guo Rong admires Yang Lian very much. For foreign races, Guo Rong also has the mind that the hearts of non-our people must be different, so the Khitan people are absolutely not credible.

So what will happen to Yang Lian for the Khitans? Guo Rong was a little puzzled, and he thought about the reason for using the Khitan people to make trouble in Jinling, Guo Rong thought about it carefully, called Zhao Kuangyin, and the two of them touched the Khitan residence.

When the two cautiously touched towards the residence of the Khitan people, Yang Lian had already arrived at the residence of the Khitan people, outdoors, Yang Gon was practicing boxing one by one, hearing footsteps, Yang Gon stopped, seeing that it was Yang Lian, and was about to meet him, Yang Lian shook his head gently, Yang Gon stopped, he knew that Yang Lian did this, there must be a reason.

Yang Lian glanced around the room and saw that the environment was quite elegant, so he couldn't help but say: "The Khitan envoy lives in this kind of place, and he should be able to experience the full charm of the south of the Yangtze River." ”

Pan Chengyou nodded, Yelu Xiyin occupied a large part of the courtyard, if it weren't for the fact that there were not many envoys now, I am afraid it would not be enough.

"Where is the Khitan envoy?" Yang Lian asked again.

Pan Chengyou's face froze, he knew that at this time, except for Yang Gon who would get up to practice martial arts, most of the other Khitan envoys, including Yelu Xiyin, must be sleeping, and Yelu Xiyin has a habit of not wanting people to disturb him when he is sleeping.

Yang Lian saw that Pan Chengyou didn't speak, strode over, entered the door, Yang Lian glanced at it, and saw that the main gate was closed, and there was a faint snoring sound, Yang Lian frowned, stepped forward, and kicked the door open. Pan Chengyou listened to it from the sidelines, and couldn't help but feel distressed, and he had to spend money to repair it again.

The muffled sound woke up Yelu Xiyin, who was sleeping, and he sat up sharply and shouted, "Enemy, enemy attack!" ”

Yang Lian looked at him coldly and didn't say a word.

Yelu Xiyin came back to his senses, and saw that it was Yang Lian, his eyes widened, he knew this person, he scratched himself a few days ago, he already knew who this person was through Yang Gon, Yang Gon said, whether he can form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty depends on this person, so he temporarily endured this breath, but why did this person come again?

Without waiting for Yelu Xiyin to speak, a naked woman also sat up, and suddenly saw so many people, and suddenly lost her face, and hurriedly blocked her chest from the quilt. looked at everyone with a look of horror.

Yang Lian could see at a glance that this woman must be a Tang person, he frowned, glanced at Pan Chengyou, and said, "Pan Siqing, what's going on?" ”

Pan Chengyou was also stunned, he didn't understand how a woman suddenly appeared here?

Yelu Xiyin reacted at this time, he put on his coat, slowly stood up, and said, "What do you mean by this? ”

"What do you mean? When the noble envoy came to Jinling, the Tang Dynasty was entertained, but if you do this kind of thing, wouldn't it be an insult to the reputation of the Khitan envoy! Yang Lian scolded.

Yang Gon hurriedly came up and said in a more tactful tone.

Yelu Xiyin was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, and said: "This woman is the woman who hooked the fence, she is for money, and this king has money, what's wrong with this?" Yang Gon still translated.

Yang Lian looked at the woman and asked, "Are you the woman who hooked the fence?" ”

The woman was hiding on the bed at this time, already dressed, and nodded when she heard the words. In this era, the woman in the goulan is also legal, and when Yang Lian saw this, he didn't plan to investigate it deeply, waved his hand, and motioned for the woman to leave.

The woman looked at Yelu Xiyin with a blank eye, Yang Gon was on the side, understanding what the woman meant, he took out a piece of broken silver from his arms, handed it to the woman, and signaled her to go quickly, I am afraid that today's things will not be good, and he is afraid that the middleman will be tired.

Sure enough, after the woman left, Yelu Xiyin reacted and immediately began to question Yang Lian, disturbing his good dreams, how should this account be calculated?

Yang Lian smiled faintly and told him that he had been ordered by the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty to come to negotiate an alliance with the Khitan. Yelu Xi listened to it, and immediately ignored it a little, he felt that the Khitan had the leading power in the matter of forming an alliance.

Yang Lian didn't think so, if the Khitan had the right to dominate, how could they send people to Jinling? Since Yelu Xiyin was a little reluctant, Yang Lian was not reluctant, and explained a few words to Yang Gon, if Yelu Xiyin had the intention of negotiating, then negotiate again. With that, Yang Lian stood up and left.

"Humph!" Yelu Xi faintly saw Yang Lian leaving, and couldn't help but snort coldly.

"King Zhao, Marquis Wu is deeply favored by the Son of Heaven in the Tang Dynasty, and now he is in charge of negotiating with the Khitan, if he has a stalemate with him, I'm afraid this matter will not be easy to handle." Yang Gon said.

"Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, in this Tang Dynasty, can he still cover the sky with one hand?" After Yelu Xiyin finished speaking, he glanced at Yang Gon with deep meaning, and then asked, "What did that person say before leaving?" ”

"Qiqi King Zhao, he means that the prince wants to negotiate, then negotiate again." Yang Gon said.

"None?" Jereh asked.

Yang Gon shook his head and said, "No." ”

Yelu Xiyin nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, I already know about this matter, you can retreat first." ”

Yang Gon bowed and retreated, Yelu Xi narrowed his eyes, suddenly sneered, and said in Chinese: "Straight lady thief, think Lao Tzu is so easy to deceive?" ”

Yelu Xiyin put on his clothes and walked out slowly. Before leaving, Yang Lian explained that from today onwards, the food of the Khitan people will not be supplied, but Yang Gon didn't say it, it's ridiculous that everyone thinks he doesn't know Chinese, but if he really doesn't understand Chinese, how could the king send him to act as this messenger?

Yelu Xiyin paced slowly in the courtyard and thought, he had his plan, but there were many things that he couldn't tell others, this was a secret hidden deep in his heart. His strength is still very weak, and only by first taoguang and obscurity can he accumulate and succeed in one fell swoop.

"Bang Bang!" Not far away, someone was clapping.

"Who?" Yelu reflexively asked immediately in Khitan dialect.

"Zhao Wangdon't panic, it's me!" The man said, approaching slowly, showing that he was not hostile.

Yelu Xi looked at it closely, it was him? Isn't he from Zhou? Yelu Xiyin reacted very quickly, he didn't think that Guo Rong's appearance here was accidental, the stations of the two sides were so far away, it was impossible for Guo Rong to come here for no reason. Therefore, his arrival must have been premeditated.

Yelu Xiyin made a gesture and invited Guo Rong to enter the room, outside the door, he arranged for his henchmen to guard, and no one could come in without his orders.

Guo Rong was not afraid, leaving Zhao Kuangyin to wait outside the door. Guo Rong has lived in the north for many years and can speak a few words of Khitan, but it is inevitably a little difficult to use it for conversation.

Yelu Xi faintly saw that he expressed the meaning of cooperation in his language, so he couldn't help waving his hand and said in Chinese: "King Jin, just speak Chinese." ”

Guo Rong was stunned for a moment, and secretly had a sense of vigilance in his heart, this person is not simple, he obviously knows Chinese but has been pretending not to know, and his heart can be punished. But the heart is in his need to take advantage of the Khitans. The expression on his face flashed, and Guo Rong smiled: "King Zhao is really powerful. ”

"This king saw that the king of Jin had something to discuss, so he met frankly, if the king of Jin has anything to say, he might as well say it directly." Yelu Xiyin said.

Guo Rong groaned slightly, and said: "Dare to ask King Zhao, this time when you come to Datang, do you want to join forces with Datang to attack Dazhou?" ”

"The news of the King of Jin is well-informed, and this king will not hide it from you, it is true, but ......" Yelu Xiyin looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.

Guo Rong suddenly became interested and asked: "King Zhao has anything to say, although you and I had a conflict a few days ago, but as the so-called don't fight, you don't know each other, now you and I have common interests, if you have the opportunity, you might as well cooperate." ”

Yelu Xi smiled faintly and said, "King Jin said that you and I have common interests, dare to ask what this common interest refers to?" ”

"Yang Lian." Guo Rong's answer was brief.

"Yang Lian? King Jin said with a smile, what are the interests of Yang Lian and me? Jereh shook his head.

Guo Rong laughed and said, "King Zhao knows that now in the imperial court, headed by Yang Lian, he thinks that the Tang Dynasty cannot form an alliance with the Khitan. ”

Yelu Xiyin knew something about this matter, but he was not sure, and when he heard this, he couldn't help asking: "How did King Jin know about these things?" ”

"I naturally have my channel." Guo Rong didn't elaborate.

Yelu Xiyin was confused instead, he fixed his mind and said: "I don't understand what the King of Jin said, the Tang Dynasty and the Khitan alliance are to attack the Great Zhou." The King of Jin is the prince of the Great Zhou, will he still support us to form an alliance and attack the Great Zhou? ”

"King Zhao, I support this resolution, and naturally there is a purpose. If King Zhao reaches an agreement, I only hope that King Zhao will agree to one of my requests. Guo Rong said.

Yelu Xiyin was very happy and asked, "What are the requirements?" If I could, I would do my best. ”

"King Zhao is quick to speak, happy!" Guo Rong laughed and said what he thought in his heart.

Yelu Xiyin glanced sideways slightly, he was a little surprised, this King of Jin, his mind is not much different from him, the identities of both are princes, one is a side branch, and the other is a stepson, under the condition of having a legitimate heir, the two want to seize the throne, normal means are impossible. Therefore, the two can only achieve their goals through the situation of mutiny.

Yelu Xiyin had an idea in his heart, he planned to seize the throne of Khitan, but his strength was limited, and even if he wanted to mutiny, he would need the support of many people, so he decided to follow Yelu Cha and kill the king to seek the throne. However, Yelu Cha finally failed, and in addition to the internal struggle for power and profit in the Khitan, the lack of foreign aid was also an extremely important factor.

Therefore, Yelu Xiyin took the initiative to ask to come to Jinling after learning that the Khitan Emperor wanted to form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty, the purpose was to find foreign aid and achieve his goal, and in the face of interests, he didn't mind becoming the second Shi Jingjiao. However, Yang Lian didn't seem to give him this opportunity.

Guo Rong said that he could cooperate with Yelu Xiyin, and he could also persuade the Tang Dynasty Yanwang to reach an agreement with Yelu Xiyin to meet his requirements. This made Yelu happy and worried. How did Guo Rong know what was going on in his heart? Although Guo Rong's request was very simple, just asking Datang to try to take Guo Rong out of Datang after reaching an agreement with the Khitan, this made Yelu Xiyin even more vigilant, because this person was too terrible.

Yelu Xi groaned in silence, and Guo Rong helped him form an alliance with the Tang Dynasty and reach an agreement to send troops; Then he helped Guo Rong to leave Jinling, once Guo Rong returned to Kaifeng, he used his influence to help Yelu Xiyin, according to Guo Rong, once the Khitan went south, as long as Yelu Xiyin gave Guo Rong enough information, he could arrest and kill the Khitan Emperor.

Next, the internal affairs of the Khitan will be handed over to Yelu Xiyin to solve by himself, Yelu Xiyin also believes that even if the Khitan Emperor is killed, the Zhou State will not be able to take the opportunity to seize the sixteen states of Youyun, because there is still the existence of the Tang Dynasty, and the three forces contain each other, so the success rate is very high.

Yelu Xi thought for a while, he had already made a decision, he decided to cooperate with Guo Rong, but what made him doubt was whether Guo Rong had the ability to persuade the Tang Dynasty to form an alliance with the Khitan? Yelu Xiyin's worries Guo Rong was very clear, and he comforted him with kind words, and then he stood up and prepared to go out.

"King Jin, this king can speak Chinese, and I hope to hide it." Jereh told him.

Guo Rong nodded, indicating that he understood, he was smart, after knowing that Yelu Xiyin deliberately concealed that he could speak Chinese, he knew that this person was definitely not simple, he must also have a plan, but Guo Rong couldn't guess it for a while.

Guo Rong left for a while, Yelu Xiyin slowly stood up, paced out, looked at the bright sunshine outside the door, Yelu Xiyin couldn't help but squint his eyes, according to Guo Rong, the king of Jin, the Tang Dynasty is also full of disputes, it seems that these countries are also intrigued, if he can integrate the Khitan and go south to sweep away the countries, it is not a dream. This day will definitely come, Yelu Xiyin couldn't help but clench his fists.
