Chapter 24: This is just the beginning
"Rubbish!"
Yelu Xiao stood up from the dragon chair angrily, pointed to the trembling ram Zhe who was kneeling on the ground and scolded angrily: "The four hundred wolf knights actually let Zhao Zhen and them escape!" I've got a bunch of trash! ”
"Your Majesty spares your life!"
Ram Zhe also felt Yelu Xiao's anger, his whole body trembled, and he kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, and the kowtow sound of "dong dong dong" echoed in the quiet hall, and after a while, blood was already flowing on his forehead, but he still didn't dare to stop and continued to kowtow.
"Father, please calm your anger, my Northern Yuan soldiers don't understand water, I didn't expect this idiot to recognize Zhao Zhen and them......"
Yeluqi, who was standing on the steps, arched his hand and spoke to Yeluxiao, but before he finished speaking, he only heard Yeluxiao shouting: "What about this idiot who came suddenly? Bring him up to me! ”
"Father, I have been killed by Zhao Zhen and them."
"What?! This waste! ”
When Yelu Xiao heard that he was dead, he was stunned at first, and then scolded the waste again.
"Hey! Has his body been found? ”
However, after scolding, Yeluxiao's attitude suddenly changed, thinking that Kubilai was once his young friend and saved himself when he was fighting for the throne of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and he was also a little melancholy: "Bury him well, let his son go back to the grassland to manage the Hui Department." ”
"Yes!"
Yeluqi also knew the relationship between Kubilai and Yeluxiao, and arched his hand and said: "Father is merciful!" ”
"Don't get out of here!" Yelu Xiao shouted angrily at the ram who was still kowtowing, "It's annoying to see you waste!" ”
"Yes! Your Majesty! ”
After the ram Zhe kowtowed heavily, he hurriedly got up, but because he had been kneeling just now, his knees hurt after a long time, his legs were weak, and he fell down again at once, and finally struggled to climb out of the hall.
After Ram Zhe left the main hall, Yeluqi pulled Baili Xi, who was standing beside him, and said to Yelu Xiao: "Father, this is Baili Xi who helped us successfully capture the imperial city, and his father is Baili Jiang, the president of the Privy Council of the Great Song Dynasty. ”
"Oh?!"
Yelu Xiao deliberately lengthened his voice, turned his head to look at Baili Xi and asked, "You are the genius Baili Xi of the famous Great Song Dynasty?" The Great Song Dynasty is not thin on your Baili family, why do you want to rebel against the Great Song Dynasty and serve me? ”
To be precise, the Great Song Dynasty can be said to be quite important to the Baili family, Baili Xi's father Baili Jiang is the president of the Privy Council of the Great Song Dynasty, and almost all the military affairs of the Great Song Dynasty will pass through the hands of Baili River before they reach the hands of the emperor, which is the most important administrative department of the Great Song Dynasty. Bailijiang's status is second only to the prime minister, the position is quite high, and the treatment is also quite good.
But it was such a high-ranking official, he and his son actually surrendered to the Northern Yuan en masse, and even planned to help Yeluxiao and Yeluqi attack the imperial city.
"I want the division of the north and the south!"
Baili Xi's face did not change, and he said to Yelu Xiao without humility or arrogance: "Your Majesty has obtained the land of Gyeonggi, and the next target must be the Central Plains north of Huangshui." And what I want is the four states south of the Yellow Water. ”
"Bold! How dare you negotiate terms with me?! Do you know how many soldiers I have in armor in the Northern Yuan Dynasty? Do you know how many war horses I can ride in the Northern Yuan? You actually said that you want to share the Song Dynasty with me? ”
After Yelu Xiao heard Baili Xi's answer, he showed an angry expression on his face, pointed at him and shouted: "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister!" Minister of the Dead Country, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?! ”
"Your Majesty, the minister is not negotiating terms with Your Majesty, but taking something from Your Majesty!"
As he spoke, Baili Xi took out a fish-shaped jade jue from his sleeve, shook it in front of Yelu Xiao's eyes and took it back, and then showed a smile on his face: "Your Majesty should recognize this thing!" ”
"This!" Yelu Xiao was immediately shocked when he saw the piece of jade that Baili Xi took out, and then said to Yelu Qi with a nervous expression, "Qi'er, you go and deal with the matter of Ram Zhe first, and continue to hunt down Zhao Zhen and them, I have something important to discuss with Mr. Baili here!" ”
"Yes, Father!"
Although Yeluqi didn't know what Baili Xi took out, after he saw his father see it, his attitude changed completely, and he also changed the title of Baili Xi from a minister who died to Mr. Baili, presumably there must be a very important secret hidden in taking things.
However, the emperor's order cannot be violated, since Yeluxiao didn't want to let himself know, Yeluqi had no choice, so he took the order and left the hall.
"Mr. Baili doesn't know where you got this from?"
After Yeluqi left the main hall, Yeluxiao also showed a happy expression on his face, he stood up from the dragon chair, walked down the steps, came to Baili Xi, and said in a pleading tone: "Can you let me take another look?!" ”
"Yes!"
Baili Xi once again took the piece of jade out of his sleeve, put it in the center of his hand, and showed it to Yelu Xiao.
"Hahaha! Good! Good! That's great! ”
Seeing the complete fish-shaped jade, Yelu Xiao also laughed, and then returned to the dragon chair with his hands in his hands, and said to Baili Xi: "You want the land of the four states south of the Yellow Water!" I'll give it all to you! Do you want Xiangzhou? I'll give it to you too! ”
"No need, I just want the land of the four states south of Huangshui, Xiangzhou and my destiny conflict, which will cause disaster."
"Good!"
"The minister has taken his leave!"
"Good!"
Yelu Xiao has not dissipated the smile on his face since he saw the fish-shaped jade, and when Baili Xi left the hall, he actually had tears in his eyes, crying and laughing and saying to himself: "Ning'er, I didn't expect our child to be alive, I didn't expect that Bailijiang raised our child!" In order to compete for the throne, I had to let you leave Wolf Xu City, and now I have destroyed Song, but you have left me. Ning'er, don't worry! Our child, whatever he wants, as long as I can give it, I will give it to him! I owe you both mother and son! ”
"Humph! What my father said was really right, the only person this Yelu Xiao owes in his life is Yu Wenning, a strange commodity to live in, and he imprisoned her at home at the beginning, that is, for today! Yelu family, Yuwen family, this is what you owe me Baili family, when Beiting died, you two divided my Beiting, from today onwards, I will let you return it little by little! ”
Baili Xi, who left the main hall, had sharp eyes, and he thought secretly in his heart. Thinking back to when his father told him the secret between Yuwenning and Yelu Xiao when he raised troops in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, he knew why a woman was imprisoned in the dungeon of Baili for twenty years, and it turned out that she was the woman Yelu Xiao loved the most in his life and the first woman to conceive a child for him. However, now that her child's identity has been borrowed by Baili Xi, this is just the beginning of revenge!
