Chapter 756: Undercurrent

In the end, Yun Xue and Zhao Yao still didn't let Xiao Mo stay, after all, they were both royal women, and if they didn't get married, of course they couldn't sleep with Xiao Mo!

The next day, someone really came to the palace, looking for Yun Xue and Zhao Yao.

They were summoned back by Zhao Quan, and with Zhao Quan's doting on Yun Xue and Zhao Yao sisters, they naturally wouldn't have any problems, of course...... Perhaps frightened by the behavior of Yun Xue and Zhao Yao sisters not returning to the palace, Zhao Quan actually asked people to bring a holy decree, saying that it was to posthumously crown Old Madam Xiao as Mrs. Yipin.

Xiao Mo is now a general, there is nothing to reward, and Zhao Quan had a stalemate with Xiao Mo last night, if Zhao Quan rewards Xiao Mo now, it will be equivalent to Zhao Quan surrendering, so Zhao Quan can only add an additional title to the old lady to express preferential treatment!

Mrs. Yipin, which is unique in the An Dynasty, is generally the family of a first-class person of the prince, and she must be the original wife to enjoy such a title.

As the saying goes, mothers are more expensive than sons, and now Meng Qiuxiang has been posthumously awarded the title of Mrs. Yipin, which once again makes the people praise the Xiao family for having a good son!

The reward is a reward, but the punishment that has been thought about behind closed doors for three days has not been canceled, which can be regarded as a small punishment for Xiao Mo.

So Xiao Mo could only be stuffed in the study for three days, and the Anliao border, thousands of miles away, was already snowing.

Zhang Yuanzhi escaped from Xiachuan with the army, returned to Yunzhou all the way non-stop, and then transferred to Xijing, at this time Western Xia was broken by Xiao Mo, and the cause of death and death news of Li Yuan and Yelurong also reached Liao.

Regarding the matter between Yelu Rong and Li Yuan and Li Ningling, Yelu Aluhan could only sigh and give up.

You can't blame Zhang Yuanzhi, right? The people also tried their best, and the remaining 30,000 escaped after 100,000 horses, and even the Wudi was cut in half, what else could they do?

And...... The current Liao State can't take care of the affairs of Western Xia, because they themselves have a lot of problems!

The first is food, which is also the biggest problem.

Sent troops to Western Xia, but the bamboo basket was empty, not only lost food and salary, but also lost the general Wu Di and 70,000 horses.

And now the Liao country, especially the tribes on the grassland, are full of complaints, and the people in the sixteen states of Yanyun are also complaining.

The reason for all this is the increase in taxes imposed by the Liao court.

Originally, the land of Liao was relatively barren, and some people's wheat harvest was hundreds of catties, but after paying the taxes, there were dozens of catties left, which made the livelihood of the people a problem.

In this way, it has caused many displaced people to wander in the territory of Liao, and often people freeze to death on the side of the road.

As for the nomads on the steppe, their situation is somewhat, after all, they live on animal husbandry, and they have nothing to do to hunt every day, and they ...... These tribes are also privileged, and if they don't want to pay taxes, they just don't pay them.

For example, those tribes in the area from Shangjing to Ulaanbaatar, they united to resist the poll tax imposed by the imperial court, and such a thing happened, which also made Yelu Hongji and the courtiers a little helpless.

Later, Yelu Aruhan proposed to Yelu Hongji that the leaders of these tribes should come to Xijing to attend the annual annual meeting, and then take this opportunity to deter them.

Yelu Hongji followed Yelu Aluhan's advice, and then asked Zhang Xiaojie to draft the will.

Zhang Xiaojie felt that the opportunity had come, so while helping Yelu Hongji prepare the holy decree, he secretly revealed Yelu Aluhan's plan.

Then the decree came to the steppe, and the leaders of the tribes knew of Yelu Aruhan's plan, and they all became excited, and they united together, and then gathered the men and horses, and claimed to clear the king's side!

At this time, Xiao Hui, the king of Han, as the ruler of the country, stood up from time to time and stopped the actions of these tribes.

And...... Queen Xiao Guanyin also appeared and came to the place where these tribal leaders gathered, she was not angry, her eyes swept over the faces of these leaders one by one, and she could see that these leaders were all bowed down.

Then Xiao Guanyin asked, "What are you doing with your heads down?" ”

These leaders have long been accustomed to submitting to the Yelu clan and the Xiao clan, not to mention that Xiao Guanyin is still the queen?

So they all bowed their heads and said to them, Xiao Guanyin saw it, and said to them: "If it is a man, they will all raise their heads, now that the An Dynasty is powerful, and my Liao Kingdom is declining day by day, do you still want to do things that are painful to relatives and happy to enemies?" ”

Some people were not convinced, and bowed to Xiao Guanyin and said: "Queen, the ministers are my big Liaorong border, Emperor Taizu once swore with the ancestors of the ministers that he would never increase the endowment, and the tribes can be autonomous, but now the emperor listened to Ma Zhi's words, and increased taxes for no reason, and the ministers did not obey, Yelu Aluhan wanted to harm us, and asked the queen to be the master!" ”

"Is there such a thing?" Xiao Guanyin's face sank, and then said: "Don't be impatient, everyone, now is not the time to move troops, if the emperor really violates the words of Taizu, this palace will definitely give you justice at that time!" ”

With Xiao Guanyin's guarantee, the leaders of these tribes were finally appeased.

Then Xiao Hui ordered someone to entertain the leaders of these tribes, and secretly sent someone to contact Zhang Xiaojie, asking Zhang Xiaojie to tell Xiao Mo in detail about the current situation in Liao, and then let Xiao Mo judge the timing of the incident.

Xiao Hui was going to make an accident, but he actually asked Xiao Mo, who was thousands of miles away, which shows that Xiao Mo is already a think tank in people's hearts now!

The news of Liaoguo passed through Zhang Xiaojie and then from Gao Yuanyi's hands, and finally reached Xiao Mo's hands a few days later.

And before Xiao Mo received this news, the battle between Wu Di and Yang Hong was also carried out in front of the palace according to the previous agreement.

This battle attracted many people in the capital to come to cheer Yang Hong, and even the emperor appeared on the wall of the palace with Yang Yuting, saying that he wanted to see Yang Hong's demeanor!

And Yang Hong's left shoulder, still not recovered to the best state, although it has been more than a month since he was injured in Xiping, but these injuries that hurt the muscles and bones, where is it so easy to fully recover?

Xiao Mo took the woman of the Xiao family and watched the battle from the side. Of course...... Liang Zheng also came, as well as a kind of Ge and Xue Yuanli, they all wanted to see how powerful Yang Hong, who is known as the number one warrior in the world, is!

Of course...... They are also here to cheer for Yang Hong, hoping that Yang Hong can defeat Hahaar, and defeat this prisoner of Liao beautifully in front of the people of the capital, the guards of the imperial city, and the emperor and ministers!
