Li Yuanhao took the order issued by Zhao Shuo, took the people, and began the work of selecting seaports along the coast. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

At the time when Li Yuanhao chose the harbor, Wu Yashi arrived at Gaochang City in Liaodi.

For the sake of safety, Wu Yashi first met with the generals of the defenders of Gaochang City, and then met with Xiao Ta Buyan and Xiao Tianyan.

"Two, the prince has an order!" Seeing Xiao Ta Buyan and Xiao Tianyan, Wu Yashi took out Zhao Shuo's will.

As soon as they saw this formation, Xiao Ta Buyan and Xiao Tianyan hurriedly kowtowed to the ground. The current Liaodi is no longer what they can say. Even if Zhao Shuo repents now, they can only be the meat of the chopping board, to be slaughtered.

"Xiao Tower is not smoking, the prince canonized you as Liaohou and managed Liaodi." After a pause, Wu Yashi looked at Xiao Tianyan again. "Xiao Tianyan is no longer the prime minister of Liaodi, according to the will of the prince, canonize me as the governor of Liaodi, and be in charge of Liaodi."

"That, my lord, this ......" Xiao Ta didn't speak, but Xiao Tianyan was a little calm. He was originally the prime minister of Liao, first obeyed the orders of Yelu Dashi, and then obeyed the orders of Xiao Ta Buyan, and now Xiao Ta Buyan manages Liaodi, and he has become the governor of Liaodi, in charge of Liaodi, not to mention the size of their respective official positions, from the point of view of the power they want to use, Zhao Shuo's intention is to divide Liaodi, let Xiao Ta Buyan and Xiao Tianyan fight inwardly and weaken each other.

For such a canonization, Xiao Tianyan and Ben found it difficult to accept.

"Lord Xiao wants to say something, but it doesn't hurt to say it, the prince said, give you absolute freedom." Wu Yashi said lightly.

"My lord, the old minister is old and can't bear this burden anymore, and now there is a hero like King Song who can turn things around, and the old minister can also go home to retire. Therefore, please dismiss the old minister's Zhizhou, and Xiao Ta Buyan will take over. Xiao Tianyan kowtowed.

Wu Yashi didn't speak, but looked at Xiao Ta Buyan.

"This, I am a woman, how can I take on such a big responsibility......" Xiao Ta Buyan was quite conflicted at this time, she had her own ideas about Zhao Shuo's appointment, but there were some things that she couldn't say directly. After all, the Liao State was fought hard by Yelu Dashi, and now Xiao Tianyan has proposed to resign, if she does the same, and Wu Yashi directly agrees, wouldn't it give up the Liao Land to Zhao Shuo?

Such a thing can't happen, it must not happen, so Xiao Ta Buyan will stop talking at this moment, and there will be suffering.

"You guys, you may have misunderstood." Deposing Xiao Tianyan and Xiao Ta Buyan, Wu Yashi would never do such a thing. Of course, Zhao Shuo would never agree. Yelu Dashi has ruled Xiliao for a few years, and the people are also attached, and now Yelu Dashi has fled, if Xiao Ta Buyan and Xiao Tianyan are suddenly deposed, then Xiliao will definitely become a mess.

Now that Liwei is also established, Xiao Tianyan and Xiao Ta Buyan should be able to understand their situation, which is enough for Wu Yashi.

Wu Yashi got up and helped Xiao Ta Buyan and Xiao Tianyan up. "Two, how could the prince want to depose you. It may be that I said it wrong, what the prince means is that the two foreign countries manage Western Liao together, Liaohou, and they are still the supreme rulers, and Brother Xiao, although you are not the official position of the prime minister, but as the governor, you are also an assistant to Liaohou. Although the official position is not the same as before, the power is still the same. ”

After a pause, Wu Yashi added. "However, the two things of military power and diplomacy have been handed over to me by the prince, that is to say, the three of us will manage Xiliao together in the future."

Xiao Tianyan was stunned for a moment, and then said. "So, the adults want to stay in Xiliao in the future?"

"What? Brother Xiao is not happy for me to stay in Xiliao? Wu Yashi casually fanned his small fan and said with a faint smile.

"How dare you, how dare you, stay in Liaodi after the great heat, I still have the two of Liaohou, I must assist the adults well and ...... together"

"Lord Xiao, what you said is a bit excessive." Wu Yashi interrupted Xiao Tianyan. "Liaodi belongs to the prince, you are not assisting me, the three of us are assisting the prince together, you must remember this! Otherwise, you may be killed. ”

"What the lord said is that the minister was confused for a while and said the wrong thing." Xiao Tianyan hurriedly opened his mouth to admit his mistake.

"I have one more thing to tell you!" Wu Yashi said.

"Your Excellency, please speak!" Xiao Tianyan made a gesture of please, while Xiao Ta Buyan stood aside.

"Liaodi is already the area controlled by the prince, although it enjoys autonomy here, but in many big aspects, it is still necessary to keep up with the area controlled by the prince, otherwise Liaodi will fall behind."

"What do you mean?" After Wu Yashi finished speaking, Xiao Tianyan looked at his mouth and asked.

"Laws and regulations, education, administration, etc., everything must be the same as the control area of the prince, of course, the power you enjoy is still there, but the power cannot be greater than the law, you can understand what I say!" Wu Yashi said.

"Yes!" Xiao Tianyan said in a deep voice.

"Brother Xiao, don't be unconvinced!" Looking at Xiao Tianyan's face, Wu Yashi could already see that this guy was dissatisfied. "The prince must also obey the law!"

"Lord, do you also obey the law?" Xiao Tianyan frowned and exclaimed.

"Yes, the prince only has the control of the army, this, or to prevent the rule from being subverted, as for the other powers, the prince has all delegated them, and the appointment and dismissal of people, the judiciary, and law enforcement departments have all been handed over to the rest of the ministers." Wu Yashi said.

"Lord Wang, it's really not an ordinary person!" Xiao Ta Buyan sighed at this moment.

"Of course the prince is not an ordinary person, how can we guess what the prince thinks!" Wu Yashi raised his head slightly, and admired Zhao Shuo from the bottom of his heart.

Seeing Wu Yashi sigh like this, Xiao Tianyan glanced at Xiao Ta Buyan, and when he saw Xiao Ta Buyan, he nodded, and then said to Wu Yashi. "In that case, we don't have anything to say, in the future, we will definitely manage Liaodi according to the prince's requirements."

"By the way, there's one more thing, I want to tell you in advance!" Wu Yashi, who reacted, spoke. "I'm going to open a mine in Liaodi, build an arsenal, and then trade with various places, and the tax should be a problem, so these days, take a good look at the laws and relevant regulations of the area controlled by the prince, don't make trouble when the time comes."

Wu Yashi sent Xiao Ta Buyan and Xiao Tianyan like this, and then took his soldiers to all parts of Liao to find mineral deposits.

When Wu Yashi wrote the news of the handling of Liaodi as a secret letter and sent it to Chang'an, Zhao Shuo laughed after reading it.

"This Wu Yashi, he made such a hair, and he made such a play, why bother, what are you trying to scare them, alas, really, I didn't expect that scholars would not be scholars at critical times!"
