Han Kuangsi was actually forced away by the suspicion of Shu Luping, the empress dowager of Chunqin of the Khitan State.

People who don't know much about the history of the five dynasties may not have much impression of this first-generation Empress Xiao.

Empress Chunqin Shu Luping, but in the history of the Eastern world, the most fierce and powerful woman in the past two thousand years! Not one of them!

Shu Luping was 14 years old as a Khitan aristocratic girl, married to the then twenty-year-old, young and promising husband Yelu Abaoji, in the ninth year after marriage, Abaoji became the chief of the Diethorn Department, and after another six years, Abaoji became the Khan of the eight core tribes of the Khitan!

In this process, Shu Luping grew from a girl to a nearly 30-year-old woman, not only gave birth to three sons and one daughter for Abaoji, but also accompanied Abaoji in his battles everywhere, as a think tank.

Because Shu Luping's words have always been correct, Abaoji also listened to Shu Luping's words very much.

At that time, the Khitan tribe was still a democratically elected political system, and the khans were held by the chiefs of the eight tribes in turn, which rotated every three years. But Abaoji yearns for the "world's most advanced social system" in the Han world of the Central Plains, where the emperor is the emperor for a lifetime and until he dies of old age!

Abaoji conquered Murowei (ancient Mongols) in the west, Jurchen in the east, Xi in the south, and Li Keyong, the envoy of Hedong Jiedu in the Tang Dynasty, in the east. In addition to expanding the Khitan territory, he set about gradually changing the system of selecting officials in the tribal alliance to be directly appointed by himself.

In order to pacify the opposition of the eight tribes, under the plan of his wife Shu Luping, Abaoji first retreated to a salt-producing place and sent someone to tell the leaders of the tribes: "I have a salt pond, which can be sold to all tribes, everyone come to eat, and by the way, talk about buying my salt." Everyone thought it was good to buy cheap salt, so they came to Abaoji's tent to eat and drink, and when everyone was drunk, they ambushed all the leaders of the tribes and killed them!

In this way, Yelu Abaoji finally became a lifelong emperor in 916 A.D. and officially established the country, with the name Khitan.

Is this the end of Shu Luping's deeds? No, that's the beginning!

In 916, Abaoji went to conquer the party members, the rear of the Khitan state was empty, and the Murwei people, who had just been defeated by the Khitan, that is, the ancestors of Genghis Khan in later generations, took the opportunity to rebel and attacked the Khitan on a large scale.

As a result, Shu Luping, who stayed in the Khitan country, personally put on the battle and led the army to defeat the Murwei people, causing the Murwei people to lose their armor and suffer countless casualties. Even the Han historians, who are very stingy with pen and ink and have always looked down on women, use "brave battles, soldiers like gods" to describe this war and evaluate Shu Luping, which shows how fierce Shu Luping is!

Women go to the battlefield has always been a topic that the common people like to talk about, the story of the female generals of the Yang Sect is a household name, and the drama of Mulan has also been sung for thousands of years, but unfortunately, these are all made up by sour literati, and they are all fake!

Shu Luping, as a woman, went into battle to command tens of thousands of troops, but it is a real historical story!

In addition to his outstanding military talents, Shu Luping's political vision is also very accurate.

After Yelu Abaoji gained power and founded the country, he coveted the fertile Central Plains, and as a result, Shu Luping solemnly told him not to provoke the giants in the south, but to sweep away the surrounding small peoples first. However, in 922, Abaoji finally couldn't help it, ignored Shu Luping's persuasion, and sent troops to conquer Youzhou, only to run into the great warlord of the Central Plains, the envoy of Hedong Jiedu, and the king of Jin, Li Cunxuan.

Li Cunmiao took a look, Nima, you don't take a bath, the stinky Khitan people dare to provoke me? Hit the girl!

At this time, Yelu Abaoji, who was invincible and undefeated, was slapped in the face by the Central Plains army.

The Khitan army was defeated by Li Cunmiao's army, with countless casualties and fled back to the Khitan in embarrassment. Fortunately, the heavy snow closed the road, and Li Cunmiao was in a hurry to destroy Zhu Wen and restore the Tang Dynasty as the emperor, otherwise, with Li Cunmiao's arrogant and irascible character, maybe one day he would pat his head, and chase all the way into the Khitan lair, and come to exterminate the race, then there will be no more epic and glorious Daliao Empire!

Okay, we know that Shu Luping is a very powerful woman, are you done?

No, Shu Luping's more ruthless deeds are still to come!

In 926, the Khitan Taizu Yelu Abaoji died. At this time, various democratic forces in the Khitan began to stir again, wanting to overthrow the "advanced imperial system of the Central Plains" in which the emperor had died of old age, and restore the backward and ignorant tribal electoral system.

At this time, the 47-year-old Shu Luping shot again!

First of all, she said that the 28-year-old prince was not experienced enough, and I came to "perform imperial power on behalf of the dynasty".

Then he summoned the ministers and asked, "Do you miss the first emperor?" ”

This question is insidious enough, who dares to answer that he does not miss it?

Oh, it's good to miss it, then you can help me go down and pass on a word, I miss him a lot, so I slashed the minister with a knife!

With this simple move, he killed hundreds of Khitan ministers and generals in the army, and the Khitan court was full of people, and everyone who did not die was in danger! The personal authority of the Empress Dowager Chunqin was quickly established, and the atmosphere of the entire Khitan court was new!

Shu Luping is really awesome! Is it over? Not yet! And even more ruthless!

Once, Shu Luping fell in love with Zhao Siwen, a Han general who surrendered, and came to this trick again, asking: "Emperor Ru Sixian?" ”

I didn't know that this time I kicked the iron plate! You have nothing to do, go and mess with the surname Zhao?

This Zhao Siwen himself is a fierce general, so he directly pushed back: "Don't ask me first, ask yourself first!" What is the emperor? ”

Seeing Shu Luping stunned, Zhao Siwen simply pointed at Shu Luping and asked Shu Luping in front of the Manchu Dynasty: "The person close to the first emperor is the Queen Mother, why didn't the Queen Mother die with her body?" I wait for the courtiers to serve, how can we be as the emperor intended? ”

A good Shu Luping, although he was choked, immediately replied with an expressionless face: "The children are young and weak, the country has no owner, and I can't follow the emperor for the time being." Then, she took out the long knife worn by the guards around her, and without hesitation, she cut off her right hand at the wrist, and calmly ordered someone to send this hand to Abaoji's coffin to "martyr" on her behalf.

A noble lady who has been pampered for decades, in order to fight for power, cut off her wrist by herself, and she can still endure the pain!

Isn't it a little tingling when you think about it?

Be cruel to others, there are too many women in history. However, there is only one woman in history who is so cruel to herself!

This is Shu Luping!

Shu Luping's ruthless self-harm with a broken wrist really shocked the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and from then on, no one dared to do anything against her! Even Zhao Siwen quietly ran away and hid, not daring to face the fierce queen mother again.

As for the abolition of the crown prince and the canonization of the second son Yelu Deguang as the emperor, this kind of sensational event that shook the world was just a trivial thing for her!

In the official history, the Khitan state developed smoothly, and Yelu Deguang did not live up to his mother's expectations. And Shu Luping himself, under the service of the little white-faced Han Kuanghei, supported the third emperor after the death of Yelu Deguang. Although his hands were stained with the blood of countless people, he lived until 953 at the age of 73.

Before his death, Han Kuangsi was also promoted by her to become a Khitan minister, and made an unprecedented outstanding contribution to the development and growth of the Khitan State and the Great Liao Dynasty.

It's just that in this world, He Daxian appeared out of thin air, interrupting the development momentum of the Khitan clan, Yelu Deguang, Yelu Ruan, Yelu Li Hu and other pillar figures who supported the Khitan State, died early due to various interventions, and the Khitan State interfered in the process of regime change in the Central Plains this time It was a big defeat, resulting in the upward trend of the Khitan State's national fortunes and a downward turning point.

In the past two months, the Empress Dowager of Chunqin Shu Luping has received bad news one after another, first the most promising grandson Yelu Ruan died, and then the favorite third son Yelu Li Hu soaked in the medicine vat, the latest news is that her most valued second son Yelu Deguang died, a series of heavy blows, completely crushed her innate self-confidence.

When a woman becomes irritable, she is first suspicious of the people around her.

Han Kuangsi can't get mixed up!

Han Kuangsi is an extremely smart and sensitive person, as soon as he sees that the Khitan trend has gone, and then continues to stay in the Khitan country, I am afraid that one day the empress dowager will be unhappy and die under Shu Luping. Frightened, he quickly found an opportunity to run away overnight, and detoured Xijing Road to the side of the head.

He still remembered Zhao Ping's promise to him that he would "wait for the vacancy".

"What does Mr. Han think about the current situation?"

"The four sides are full of heroes, the Tang State will be divided into four, Shi Jingjiao's Jin State is alive, Zhao Dejun has established the Yan State, and Fan Yanguang's Lu State is just around the corner. The southern countries will not make a big move for the time being, and the key is how the four countries of Hebei divide up their territory. ”

"I want to hear about it."

"Yan is facing the Khitan, presumably the first thing to compete for Shandong to establish a large rear, and this is precisely Fan Yanguang's lair, in the next year, the east will mainly be fought by Lu and Yan. In the west, Taiyuan was relieved, and the Jin Kingdom expanded rapidly. But if attacking Luoyang at this time is a stupid move, it will be followed by Zhao Dejun or Fan Yanguang. If I am Shi Jingjiao, I will first seek to seize the western capital of Chang'an, and then take Hanzhong and Shuzhong. ”

"So, how should the Zhenwu Army deal with itself?"

"Dare to ask, is General Zhao willing to be the fifth country?"

The two looked at each other again and smiled, very happy.

"I think so, but I still need a secretary."

"Willing to serve the Lord!" Han Kuangsi stood up and bowed to Zhao Pingna, who was sitting in the chair. (To be continued.) )
