Chen Yuan hurriedly said, "Ninth Prince, you wait a minute, let's give General Xiao another chance." ”

Yelu Gollum let go of the woman who was already in tatters, reached out and slapped Xiao Yuanqiu's son on the head: "Eat! I'll let you eat the knife! ”

The child was frightened and cried, and a tear overflowed from the corner of Xiao Yuanqiu's eye.

Chen Yuan knew that Xiao Yuanqiu's heart was now shaken, and he needed a reason to convince himself, and this reason had to be found for him by himself, otherwise if it took a long time, he would be able to regain his previous firmness again.

"General, I don't want to embarrass you, I am very touched by your loyalty, but even if I let you out now, Yelu Renxian will not let you go. You've done enough for him, even if you want to die for him, ask your son if he's willing? ”

Xiao Yuanqiu's eyes looked at his eight-year-old son, and his facial muscles trembled sharply. Jerüne Gollum was very cooperative and lifted his son up: "Boy, tell your father, do you want to die?" ”

The child was frightened and cried loudly, crying and shouting, "I don't want to die, Dad, I don't want to die!" ”

The woman also begged in the back: "Master, even if you don't care about me, save the child!" I beg you! ”

Xiao Yuanqiu finally gave up: "Okay, I said." ”

When Chen Yuan told Yelu Zongyuan everything that Xiao Yuanqiu said, the face of the king of the Southern Courtyard of the Liao Kingdom immediately changed.

The thing is the worst possibility that Chen Yuan guessed. After Xiao Yuanqiu came back, he was ready to cooperate with Yelu Ren to use the knife against Yelu Zongyuan first.

According to what Xiao Yuanqiu said, when Li Yuanhao left Yanjing with the princess, Liao Xingzong would inevitably go out of the city to see him off. According to the specifications of the princess's marriage, Liao Xingzong must be sent a hundred miles away, so it will take at least a day to go back and forth.

Once Liao Xingzong left Yanjing, Yeluren would immediately instruct the elite soldiers left behind by Li Yuanhao to raid the mansion of the king of the Southern Courtyard and create chaos. When the time comes, he will use the excuse of calming down the chaos and transfer the elite soldiers prepared in advance to Yanjing.

And Xiao Yuanqiu's task is to kill Yelu Zongyuan and Yelu Gollum's father and son under the guise of "the sergeant's urgent revenge"!

Yelu Zongyuan now knows that he has long been the prey in the eyes of the other party! At the same time, I felt a little lucky: "I was almost calculated by them, yesterday I said that something was not right, but I didn't want to know what the problem was!" Shimei, you did a good job this time, if you hadn't been alert early, we might still be following the original steps, and that would only step into the trap set by others. ”

Chen Yuan's brows furrowed tightly: "Great King, since we know the other party's preliminary plan, I think we should be able to deal with Yelu Renxian's offensive. What worries me the most now is Li Yuanhao. ”

Yelu Zongyuan is worthy of being a generation of heroes, and the situation is so sinister, he actually laughed: "This is Yelu Renxian!" If he really has no power to fight back, he doesn't deserve to fight me for so many years! Shimei is right, Yeluren has a few catties and taels under his hands, I know very well in my heart, if there is no strong foreign aid, he wants to bring me down I am a fool's dream! Our top priority is to get rid of the so-called elite party soldiers brought by Li Yuanhao. ”

Yelu Rinne followed and said, "Father, we don't know where they are hiding now, Chen Shimei is probably in the barracks, but we can't rush to the North Courtyard to find someone, right?" ”

Yelu Zongyuan smiled slightly, and turned his head to look at Chen Yuan: "Shimei, at the beginning, you said that you were sixty percent sure of defeating Yelu Renxian, I want to know, how many percent do you still have now?" ”

"Sixty percent!" Chen Yuan replied quite simply.

Yelu Zongyuan laughed when he heard this: "Things are completely different from what you think, why are you still sixty percent sure?" ”

Chen Yuan clenched his fists: "Back to the king, I never thought that things would develop according to our previous plan. At that time, I said sixty percent, which was calculated from the strength of both of us. Although we are passive from the current situation, the advantage of the king still exists, if it is not, then how could Yelu Renxian use that method to kill the king? Therefore, there is still a 60% certainty in the next place. ”

Yelu Zongyuan looked at Chen Yuan's eyes and showed a rather appreciative expression: "Okay, that's a very good point." I didn't think that Jeruren would lie there and kill me first. What does Shimei think we need to do now? ”

Chen Yuan said: "After Xiao Yuanqiu disappeared, the other party's plan must have changed, but one thing will not change, Yelu Renxian must still take killing the king as his ultimate goal. Therefore, I think that the king should pay more attention to his own safety. If my guess is correct, Ming said that once the emperor approves Li Yuanhao's marriage, they will do it immediately. ”

Yelune was already very convinced of Chen Yuan's guess at this time, and said in surprise: "So fast? ”

The corners of Chen Yuan's mouth raised: "They have been preparing for a long time, and they used to take their time, first because we didn't realize that they had enough time." Second, maybe Li Yuanhao didn't plan to leave his traces in the battle of the Liao State at that time. However, Xiao Yuanqiu's disappearance made Yeluren first mistakenly think that we had discovered their intentions, and Li Yuanhao also saw clearly that if he didn't make a move, Yeluren would not be able to bring down the king at all. ”

Yelu Zongyuan agreed: "Shimei is right, killing me when the emperor left Yanjing, regardless of all the consequences, this is not Yelu Renxian's style at all." This old guy has always taken one step and looked at three steps, and has always been known for being steady. This must be Li Yuanhao's strategy. ”

Chen Yuan nodded: "Yes, what the king said is very right, I think that their next steps will definitely be more vicious." ”

Yelu Gurgling immediately said, "Father, otherwise, you won't go to the banquet held by the emperor for Li Yuanhao and the princess tomorrow night." ”

Yelu Zongyuan laughed and said, "Why don't you go?" By the way, Chen Shimei, what strategy do you think we should take? ”

Chen Yuan said: "The king is also quite benevolent in Yanjing, if you want to kill the king, it will not be the people of the North Courtyard who will do it." ”

Yelu Zongyuan twisted the beard on the side of his mouth and smiled: "In the final analysis, the most dangerous is Li Yuanhao!" ”

Tomorrow, Li Yuanhao will propose to Yelu Ling. After tomorrow, fighting between the two sides could break out at any time.

Chen Yuan sat in the carriage, and his thoughts could not be calm. He felt the pressure in front of him getting bigger and bigger, although he was full of confidence in front of Yelu Zongyuan, but Chen Yuan's heart clearly sensed that fear! It should be said that every hour spreads in his heart, slowly crowding out the confidence he already has left.

He decided to meet Xiao Tali, what this woman thinks is very crucial to him! Because this woman definitely has the ability to turn her hands into clouds, she has now decided to join the game, in this one, what role does she want to play?

If Xiao Tali stood on the side of the North Courtyard, he would hurry up and run away, and go to Hu Jing to fight the sword rivers and lakes together, Yelu Zongyuan would not have to play at all.

If she was helping Yelu Zongyuan, or if she just wanted to take advantage of the water to touch two fish, it would be interesting.

Jerubiru said beside the carriage, "Lord Chen, where are we going now?" ”

Chen Yuan didn't show his head in the carriage: "What time is it now?" ”

Jerubila replied, "It's almost noon, and there is already the smell of food on both sides of the road, and I think it's time to eat." ”

Chen Yuan snorted: "Go to the palace." ”

Xiao Tali didn't seem to be surprised by Chen Yuan's request to see him, and asked leisurely while looking at the scenery outside the window, "Chen Shimei, do you have something?" ”

She stood in front of the window, the sun shining on her body, and her slender fingers pinched the petals of plum blossoms at will, very gently. Dressed in a very bright set of Khitan aristocratic women's costumes, it made Chen Yuan feel amazing!

Reflecting the sunlight, the skin seems to be crystal clear. With the slender eyebrows, slightly raised eyes, small nose, and slightly thin lips, there is always a kind of thought that makes men can't help but want to protect her.

If such a woman appeared elsewhere, Chen Yuan would definitely not hesitate to protect her. But this is the palace, and the weak outside is used to deceive people, if she is really weak, she will not be able to survive until now.

Chen Yuan is not here to protect this woman, but hopes to get the support of this woman so that he can have the ability to continue playing this game.

The wording has already been thought out on the road, and it is necessary to explain his current position, but he cannot say that his position is too firm. In case Xiao Tatari takes a fancy to the North Courtyard, if he expresses his loyalty to the Southern Courtyard, the problem will be serious.

"The queen mother, Weichen, Weichen is here to ask for sin." Chen Yuan's voice was very soft.

Xiao Tali didn't look back at all: "What mistake did you make?" Why don't you go up to the emperor to ask for guilt? ”

Chen Yuan took a small step forward: "Queen, Weichen thinks that the matter is very important, and Weichen is soft-spoken, so it is better to tell Niangniang first, if Niangniang thinks that it is necessary for Weichen to ask the emperor for guilt, then the minister will go immediately." ”

A chuckle came out of Xiao Tali's voice, this kind of laughter belongs to a very wise woman like her: "Okay, let's talk about it first." ”

Chen Yuan clenched his fists and bent over: "Niangniang, that Xiao Yuanqiu was caught by Weichen." ”

When Chen Yuan spoke, his eyes were staring at Xiao Tatari's back, and he found that when he said this thing that surprised both Yelu Nie and Yelu Zongyuan, Xiao Tatar's shoulders didn't even move.

"Why did you arrest him?" Xiao Tatari still didn't look back.

Chen Yuan said: "Because Prince Shu Bao beat Weichen, Weichen has a grudge in his heart and wants to find the horse feet of the king of the North Courtyard from General Xiao Yuanqiu to take revenge on Prince Shu Bao." ”

Xiao Tali slowly closed the window in front of him: "Do you think that with your knowledge, you can take revenge on the king of the North Courtyard?" ”

Chen Yuan bent his waist very low, and even if Xiao Tatari suddenly turned around, he saw the expression on his face: "Weichen also instigated the Ninth Prince, and when I thought about it, I should be able to make the king of the North Courtyard suffer a small loss." ”

After saying this, Xiao Tali finally turned his head, with a charming smile unique to a mature woman on his face: "Chen Shimei, do you know that if you are known by the emperor or the king of the North Courtyard, you will die." ”

Chen Yuanying said: "Weichen knows, but Weichen knows that the queen will not tell the matter, because as long as there is a conflict between the north and south courts, it will be of great benefit to Prince Hongji." ”

Xiao Tatari walked up to Chen Yuan: "Raise your head." ”
