Chapter 20 The sublineage of the mountain wolf
Yelu Hongji himself still admires the king very much, if it weren't for the fact that this matter is related to the border of the Liao State and the face of the Great Liao State, he would not care whether the king wants to attack the Western Xia. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Xin Zan, what do you think of Xixia's request for help?" Yelu Hongji turned his gaze to Xinzan, who had not spoken.
Xin Zan had been listening and observing everyone just now, Yelu Renxian and Xiao Ying were both veterans, and they were both from the perspective of Da Liao. But he also knew that the Liao Kingdom and the king had an indissoluble bond, and it seemed that it was contrary to Yelu Hongji's original intention to help Western Xia so directly.
Hearing that the emperor was asking himself, Xin Zan thought for a while and said: "Shengshang, as far as I know, Wang Bi is not a reckless person, and it is inevitable that the Song army is not fully prepared to attack the Western Xia with a counterattack, and I think Wang Bi's move is probably to strive for more favorable conditions." As for the Western Xia side, it is somewhat unreasonable not to help. It is better to send someone to negotiate peace with Wang Pan in a neutral capacity, so as not to lose my Da Liao's appeasement to the vassal country, and at the same time to know what Wang Pan wants to do, if it can be handled well, it may not be without the benefits of my Da Liao. ”
Yeluren nodded slightly, and Xiao Ying laughed: "Gao, this literati has a stomach twisted intestines." It's much better than our simple help or not. Yelu Hongji also nodded with satisfaction and said: "Then according to everyone, who should be sent to represent Da Liao to be this peacemaker?" ”
"Since it's the minister's idea, the minister is willing to go!" Xin Zan asked.
Yelu Hongji was just about to play, when suddenly Yelu Yixin got up and said, "No, no!" All eyes were on Jeruethin.
Yelu Yixin said: "Xin Zan is the prime minister of the Southern Yuan, in charge of Han affairs, and is the minister of the interior of the country, with great responsibilities. This Western Xia request for help should be under the jurisdiction of the Northern Court, the Privy Council is the main military, and the Holy Lord should send the king of the Northern Court to go, in case of temporary changes, there is also the real power of whether to transfer the army. ”
His words seemed to make sense, and Yelu Hongji looked at the people in the tent and set his eyes on Xiao Ying and Yelu Renxian. Xiao Ying had been sent as an envoy to the Great Song Dynasty in the past, and he had a good relationship with the king, so he was naturally the best candidate. Xiao Ying saw that the emperor was looking at him, and hurriedly said: "What King Zhao (Yelu Yixin) said is also reasonable, even so, Weichen is willing to go to the Song-Xia border to persuade the king to withdraw his troops. It's just that if he insists on fighting Liao, then what? ”
Yelu Yixin said: "King Xiao, what is there to worry about, I think that my Emperor Daliao treats the king very well, and lends him troops to attack the Japanese slaves. Now that the emperor said something, he shouldn't be so faceless. ”
Yelu Hongji agreed with this, but Xiao Ying frowned and said: "King Zhao's words are wrong, the Holy Lord borrowed the army from the king because he helped me Liao to quell the rebellion, and then there was a so-called loan from Goryeo, which is profitable for my Da Liao." And now Wang Bian is attacking Western Xia on behalf of the Song Dynasty, this doesn't seem to be about whether Wang Bian gives face or not, right? ”
Yelu Yixin retorted: "It is precisely because the king represents the Great Song Dynasty that we must consider the alliance between the Song Dynasty and my Great Liao, and we should give the emperor face." Otherwise, he just doesn't know the times. ”
"King Zhao, you are confusing right and wrong! Now it's Xixia who comes to ask me for help in Da Liao, and isn't it Wang who comes to ask me for help in Da Liao? Xin Zan couldn't listen to Yelu Yixin's words anymore, and also interjected.
"Enough! Listen to you or listen to me! Yelu Hongji glared, and the tent immediately quieted down, he glanced at the queen Xiao Guanyin beside him, although the queen was beautiful, she was too restrained by her side: "This king wants to lead the army to the Xijing Dao Daimyo Mansion in person, King Zhao, you go to arrange, go and prepare first!" Yelu Yixin immediately understood, or the emperor couldn't make up his mind and wanted to wait for the opportunity to move.
"Xiao Ying, you take the will of this king to the Great Song Dynasty and persuade the little emperor to value peace!"
"And what about the king's side?" Xiao Ying asked, "Will he resist the decree?" Yelu Hongji said that he got up and left, this time he really left the big tent, leaving a bunch of people in the tent to speculate about the emperor's holy will. Although Yelu Hongji didn't know if Wang Bian would withdraw his troops, based on his understanding of Wang Bian, Wang Bian was a person who was unwilling to use swords. Although Wang Pan once attacked the Japanese slave country, Yelu Hongji always felt that the reason why Wang Pan came to Goryeo to fight the Japanese slaves was not for war, but more like a plunder. Plunder that is more powerful than the true occupation sense.
In other words, Wang Fang came to Liao before and made too deep an impression on Yelu Hongji. Next to the king was the one who, like him, could understand Renzong's intention to not fight. It's just that Yelu Hongji didn't expect that under Song Renzong's forgiving heart, there was still a difficult knot in the heart of recovering the land of Yanyun.
Although the Liao Dynasty built five capitals, the emperor and his officials and subordinates did not settle in the capital, and still migrated from time to time. As the political center and central decision-making place of the Liao Dynasty, it is necessary to arrange heavy guards and guards, so "there is no solid city, ditch and pond, and palace", but "the felt car is the camp, and the hard village is the palace". Therefore, the imperial court guards of the Liao Dynasty were different from the palace guards of the Central Plains Dynasty, but "migrated to and from impermanence, with soldiers as camp guards", and "no day without camp, no in the guard".
Therefore, for Yelu Hongji, as long as he leaves the chattering queen Xiao Guanyin, it is the same everywhere he goes. He took the gentle and lovely Shan Deng and came to Xijing together. In the Datong Mansion of Xijing Road, the news of the war between the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty can also be known faster. At this time, the war in Song and Xia seemed to be somewhat stagnant, and Yelu Hongji did not know that the large army next to the king was being blocked by the wind and snow at this time.
In the palace of Datong Mansion on Xijing Road in Liaoguo, at this moment, it is the sound of Yan Wu Yingying in spring, Shan Deng accompanied Yelu Hongji, drinking wine and watching the palace maid sing and dance. Obviously, these palace maids, whether they are in appearance or dancing, and their dance music cannot be compared with Xiao Guanyin's "Ni Clothes and Feather Clothes" personally compiled for Yelu Hongji.
Yelu Hongji thought about the battle between Song and Xia, and he didn't want to appreciate it more. Seeing that Yelu Hongji didn't seem to be interested in the singing and dancing woman in front of him, Shan Deng sighed faintly: "I'm afraid these are difficult to get into the eyes of the emperor, if only my sister was here." ”
"Hugh wants to mention her, I'm afraid she won't allow me to get closer to my concubine!" Yelu Hongji said and hugged Shan Deng.
"I'm not talking about the queen, I'm talking about my other sister, but unfortunately if the queen hadn't stopped me, I would have been a saint now."
"Oh? Haha, the concubine has a stunning beauty, and she still hides it from the king? ”
"It's not that the concubine deliberately hid it from the saint, it's just that my sister had a short life, and she didn't have a heart of admiration for the saint, and she didn't die well in the end." Shan Deng said with great grievances.
"Oh? Your sister is in love with me? How did this king not know? How could she not die well? Yelu Hongji asked with a smile.
"Did the Holy Lord ever remember Princess Yan?"
Yelu Hongji thought about it, and there was indeed such a person in his impression, but it was the concubine of the rebellious imperial uncle Yelu Chongyuan, but she was a stunning beauty.
"Whoa! That's the wife of a sinner, naturally she won't die well, but I think it's a pity for you to say that she admires this king! Haha"
Shan Deng hurriedly said: "Holy Lord, it's a pity that it's not because of the emperor's uncle's rebellion, it's a pity that she was wrapped in reeds after her death, and she can't be buried thickly!" It's all because my sister is too beautiful and hated. ”
Yelu Hongji's face sank, he was a little angry when he heard this, of course he understood who Shan Deng was talking about. If this had been placed a few years ago, maybe he would have scolded Shan Deng and then blasted out. But now he won't, because he also thinks that the queen is too cautious and can't tolerate other women around him.
The head of the tent, Yelu Liang, and the leader of the guards, Ah Si, looked at each other silently, and then looked away at the same time. There are all kinds of concubines around the emperor, and it is inconvenient for them to talk more, but this Shan Deng's words undoubtedly made the two of them move in their hearts.
This Shan Deng used to be Princess Yan's personal maid, because she liked to play the piano and sing and dance, Queen Xiao Guanyin liked her very much. Princess Yan was given to death, and many people know that it was because the scandal between her and Yelu Hongxiao was discovered by the queen, so she was given death by Xiao Guanyin. However, Xiao Guanyin kept Shan Deng by his side to train, and later Shan Deng was favored by Yelu Hongji, and then he was made a concubine.
Yelu Liangren has been by Yelu Hongji's side for many years, and he used to just think that Shan Deng was very good at the emperor's favor, but he suddenly felt cold after listening to Shan Deng's words. It's not that he didn't see that the emperor is a little annoyed with Queen Xiao now, but this single Deng doesn't remember the queen's grace of not killing, but is thin behind his back, which is not just a matter of unkindness.
A royal tent guard came in to report that King Zhao was asking to see him outside the palace. "Let him in!" Yelu Hongji withdrew the musicians and palace maids in the tent, and Yelu Yixin, the king of Zhao, stepped into the big tent.
"The Holy Lord, the kings of the two houses of the DPRK and the Central Court, as well as the officials of the Privy Council and other ministries have arrived in Datong Mansion one after another, and now they are all waiting for the Holy Lord to choose a day to raise their accounts!" Jelu Yixin entered the account and said.
"Whatever the account, when it's all over, go and do your own thing. I didn't see that this king was busy! What happened to the war between Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty? ”
Yelu Yixin took a few steps forward to report: "Western Xia has arranged defenses, although the king is fierce, but the time and place seem to be not beneficial to the Song army, but it is just ...... It's just that now they are fighting, but there are many people who have fled the famine in Western Xia are coming towards our Yunnei and Dongsheng two states. I think the Holy One should make a decision as soon as possible, so as not to unsettle our borders. ”
"Good! This king ordered you to take this king's will, mobilize the Han army from all states to form a Xiongjie army to go to Yunnei, and win the two states in the east. Don't let the refugees of Western Xia flow into my territory of Daliao. Also, Xiao Ying is not in the court, and his affairs are taken care of by you, King Zhao. ”
Yelu Yixin said yes in his mouth, and looked up at the tent, the single concubine sitting next to Yelu Hongji was looking at him with a smile, and the corner of Yelu Yixin's mouth showed an imperceptible smile.
"Is there any news from King Song Jun's side?" Yeluhongki didn't notice the slight change, and he asked after taking a sip of wine.
"Holy Lord, there is still some news about the Song army, but some of it is very weird! It was reported that Wang's Xia troops were on their way to Zhenrong on the Xia-Song border, but it seemed that the weather was bad there, and the trip was being blocked. But our informant reports that we have often heard the sound of fighting from the king's camp these days, which is very strange. ”
