Under Yang Hao's orders. Yang Yanxun sent someone to escort the Liao Honglu Temple Cheng ink traces back to the Liao camp, and in the afternoon, Lord Mo came back again, this time Yang Hao actually had to follow him over, Yang Yanxun became nervous, although Yang Jiye did not speak, but because he had already been persuaded, but it did not work, but his son came forward to dissuade him, he did not stop it, and it was obvious that he was quite disapproving of this.

Yang Hao smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, if it is beneficial to the Liao State, even if I am still an envoy of the Song State, I will be left behind by them." If there is no benefit to the Liao Kingdom, even if you are the Son of Heaven, I can come and go freely. You don't have to worry, I'm going to Liaoying, I'm going to meet Yelu Xiuge, the king of the Northern Courtyard of Liao, for a while. ”

Yang Yanxun was surprised: "It turns out that he is here?" No wonder ......, but even if he came, the saint was the Son of Heaven, and Yelu Hugo was only the king of the Northern Courtyard of Liao. He should have come to meet the Holy One. ”

Yang Hao smiled: "Sometimes, taking advantage is taking advantage, and taking advantage is taking advantage." ”

Yang Hao changed into the clothes of an ordinary general, only a few shadow guards accompanied him, accompanied by ink marks, and entered the Liao State camp, and the Song State camp has been paying attention to the movements here, but although they have all heard of Yang Hao's name, they don't know him much, plus they are too far away, Yang Hao is not wearing obvious clothing, although he found that Xia Liao, who has always spoken with knives and guns, has come and gone a little weirdly today, but he can't judge the identity of the parties.

In the Liao military camp, the largest felt bag, the ink marks took a step forward to open the thick curtain, and there was a scarlet carpet in front of it, which was spread to the end. At the end of the case, there are fried rice, butter, nǎi wine, nǎi tofu, and a large pot of steaming hand-grilled mutton.

Yang Hao came in, he only glanced up, then lowered his eyes, and focused on a lamb rib in his hand. At this glance, Yang Hao's appearance was actually completely seen by him, compared to when he left Beijing. Yang Hao has matured a lot, his expression and temperament are more condensed and steady, and the temperament of the superior has gradually appeared, if when he was in Beijing, his confidence and calmness came from the powerful empire behind him, the strong emperor, then now the calmness and self-confidence in his gestures are completely because of his own strength.

Jerehugo only glanced at him and lowered his head, not to deliberately make a contempt for him, but not to let him see the emotional fluctuations in his eyes. Although it has been a few years since then, although he has a very important mission in the West, he has never forgotten the woman he once loved deeply.

Over the years, as the king of the North Courtyard, he has become famous, and there are more and more women around him, many of whom are proud and handsome, but in his heart, there is no one who can compare to the court lady Luo Dong'er. It has been said that what you don't get is always the best. Maybe that's the reason, every time he gets a beauty, he can't help but compare her with Dong'er, and Dong'er has always regarded him as a big brother and has never served him as his woman, so he can only compare with his own fantasies, such a comparison, even if he is a fairy, he will be defeated in front of Dong'er, who has been perfected in his mind, so his remorse is also deepened.

If he could turn back time, he would never be generous again, succumb to the will of the Queen Mother, and give up the woman he likes to the man in front of him. He heard that Dong'er had given birth to several children for Yang Hao, and his heart was even more like a needle prick, the girl who was snow-white, like the most beautiful snow fox in winter on the grassland, should have become his princess, and should have given birth to children for him.

Seeing that the king was sitting arrogantly, if there was no one around, the ink mark was very uneasy, and he just accentuated his tone, singing to announce the arrival of the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, but was stopped by Yang Hao. Yang Hao calmly moved forward, walked straight to Yelu Huge, sat down cross-legged, picked up a juicy and delicious hand-grilled mutton from the plate in front of him, and gnawed it down.

With a "click", Jeruxiu threw a bone on the table that he had gnawed clean in his hand, and picked up a handkerchief. Gently wiped the corners of his mouth, then slowly wiped his fingers, and said coldly: "Your Majesty, you should know why the warriors of my Diera Sixth Academy Department have traveled thousands of miles to Fengtai Mountain in this cold winter season. However, your soldiers don't seem to be very friendly, and since Your Majesty is here today, I don't know how you plan to explain this matter to me? ”

"Actually...... It's not a big deal, is it? There seems to be nothing wrong with the soldiers of your country chasing their prey and invading into my land, and there seems to be nothing wrong with my soldiers deporting them. ”

Jeruxiu's eyes widened angrily and shouted, "You ......"

Yang Hao's tone changed, and he said: "Of course, the army of the Song Kingdom pressed the border, and the king led the army to arrive, which helped me a lot. My people are a little impolite to treat friendly troops like this, in fact, they could have done it more tactfully, but then your ministry also beat up my sentry who fetched water, and stripped them to a kne, tied them up in front of the camp to show the public, and my people snatched them back, isn't it right, if the king of Hugh Ge is the one who leads the troops, what will you do? ”

"Of course. Anyway, the king is a guest from afar, and this time the troops are not without protection for my Xia country, and it is a little unreasonable for my people to do this, although the soldiers are rude and barbaric, and occasional conflicts are inevitable, but at least I should come forward to deal with it as soon as possible to avoid further expansion of the situation, if I do so, it will not cause the two armies of Xia and Liao to make my Xia country, the Fengtai Mountain camp, a battlefield, kill it. However, I'm really busy, and I want to come to King Yelu for the same reason, so I didn't come from Datong until now, right? ”

Yelu Xiuge sneered: "Your Majesty's words are hidden in the needle, are you not going to be good?" ”

Yang Haozheng said: "You are wrong, I am just stating a fact. No matter what the cause of the Fengtai Mountain conflict is, who is right and who is wrong, such a trivial matter is insignificant compared to the long-term friendship between the two countries in Liaoxia. Therefore, for the great friendship between Xia and Liao, and for the righteous act of King Hugh Ge who traveled thousands of miles to help......"

Yang Hao waved the sheep bone in one hand, said impassionedly, when he said this, he threw the sheep bone on the carpet, stroked his chest with his fist, and said solemnly: "As the emperor of the Xia Kingdom, I apologize to King Hugh Ge, and I would like to express my deep condolences to the Liao soldiers who died in this conflict, and to the Liao soldiers who were disabled in this conflict. ”

Brother Yelu was stunned, Yang Hao's reaction was completely beyond his expectations. As a result, many of the arguments he had thought of in advance to suppress Yang Hao were useless. People apologized, but they were the emperor of a country, so they apologized to him, what else did he have to say? Is it difficult to ask people to hand over the murderer? This is a war, not a brawl, and no matter how incompetent the emperor is, he will not do the kind of thing that greatly disappoints the people and destroys the Great Wall, so to force him to break up, and this is the bottom line that the Liao State is unwilling to touch.

When Brother Hugh was stunned, Yang Hao suddenly eased his face, leaned over and said: "King Hugh's mind is as vast as the grassland and as vast as the sky, I believe that the friendship between your and my two countries will also weigh more than this little unpleasantness in King Hugh's heart." I don't want to mention this trivial matter, but I came to meet King Hugh Ge this time, in fact, there is a more important matter that I want to report to the king. Many of my civil and military officers do not know about this matter, but I feel that it is necessary to tell King Hugh Ge first, as I have said, that I cherish the friendship between your two countries very much. ”

"What's the matter?" Yelu Xiuge is both civil and military, and he is a famous general of the Liao State in the early Song Dynasty, but when it comes to this kind of cunning thoughts, it is far inferior to Yang Hao, he is not only thinking now, even if he is happy and angry, he is completely led away by Yang Hao.

Yang Hao said word by word: "Brother Hugh, I, the Xia Kingdom, have decided to cut off the emperor's title and surrender to the Song Kingdom. ”

Brother Yelu Xiu's eyes were open, and a jīng glow suddenly burst out in his eyes, his hands were spread, like a tiger pounced on food, and he said sharply: "What are you talking about?" ”

Yang Hao held a cup in one hand and a pot in the other, the wine jug was held high, the wine was like a pour, and he smiled: "One punch is exhausted, and I want to punch again, what should I do?" Naturally, you have to withdraw your fist first. Sometimes retreating is to move forward better, does King Hugh think so? ”

Yelu Hugh's furious aura suddenly subsided, and he slowly sat down again after a few cases.

Yang Hao filled a glass of wine, put down the wine jug, held the glass in both hands, and said gently: "Time flies, and it has been a long time. Since we broke up in Beijing, we will see you again today, King Hugh, and let us drink this cup full......"

"I am a fox who has practiced for thousands of years, and I have practiced for thousands of years and been lonely for thousands of years, and in the dead of night, someone can hear me crying, and someone can see me dancing in the dim light. I am a fox waiting for a thousand years, waiting for a thousand years of loneliness, who planted the Gu of love in the rolling red dust, who drank the poison of love in the vast sea of people, when I love you, you are as poor as washing the cold window, and when you leave you, you are the gold list with the title of the cave room flower candle......"

Luo Gongming was wearing a fox fluff trimmed shoulder, holding a cup of tea, sitting in the chair, his eyes closed and humming the song he learned from "A Thousand Golden Laughing Building" very intoxicated, and a goatee under his chin was cocked around, leisurely. Luo Lao is a fan of the snow like a snow in the daughter of the smile, and the repertoire sung by the snow girl, he recalls it like a stream, because he often goes to the daughter smile building to cheer, but it makes Mrs. Luo snort vinegar.

"Can I dance another dance for you, I am the white ...... you released thousands of years ago Belch, put ...... Put...... Let go ......"

Old man Luo sang a breath, there was still a little taste of breath singing, and when he was singing, his ears were suddenly twisted by a round and jade little hand, and his ass immediately left the chair with that hand, and before his eyes opened, his face was twisted into bun folds: "Ouch, madam, what is this for?" ”

Mrs. Luo put down her hands hatefully, put her hands on her waist, posed in the shape of a teapot, her apricot eyes widened, and shouted: "You old thing, you never discuss anything with me, everything else depends on you, but for such a big matter, you also keep me in the dark, what are you to me?" ”

"Well, what the hell is going on? Look at you, you can't understand the words, and let the old man discuss with you, what to discuss? ”

Mrs. Luo said angrily: "Let me ask you, have you asked to return to your hometown?" ”

Luo Gongming stroked his beard and said, "Yes, what's wrong?" ”

"Why do you want to go home?"

Luo Gongming said slowly: "Tell the old man and return to his hometown, of course, because he is old." Now that I'm old, my legs and feet are not dexterous, my brain is not enough, I take a step to catch my breath, and if there is a gust of wind, I can't serve the court, and if I don't retreat, are you waiting for others to catch up? ”

Mrs. Luo sneered: "Listening to what you say, it's almost in the ground, right?" Dare to love only have one breath left? I don't know which old thing can toss so much last night, okay, you're too old to walk, right? Bi Toad, Caifeng, tell me to go down, and drive all the concubines of the lord to the west courtyard, without my orders, no one can wait for the master. Also, tell the housekeeper, when the master goes out in the future, he has to nod his head first, the master is so weak, he can't help it, he will definitely not be able to go to the building with a smile, and the seat reserved for our master by the snow girl will also be removed......"

The two little girls at the door couldn't help but smile and agreed, turned around and were about to run out, Luo Gongming heard that it was as if he had been stung by a scorpion, and quickly jumped up and said, "Belch, don't go." You all go out and see what kind of jokes, and be careful that the master breaks your legs. ”

"The people around me, if you want to teach them, you dare to teach them?"

"Go, go, two unruly little girls, the old man talks to his wife, and he won't retreat." Bombed away Bi Toad and Caifeng, Luo Gongming hurriedly pulled his wife, salivated and said: "Okay, okay, okay, don't be angry, don't be angry with your husband." You want to know, just tell your husband. ”

Mrs. Luo arched him with her buttocks, sat down on his chair with a snort, and said with a straight face: "Say it now, there must be a sentence that is untrue, hum!" ”

Luo Gongming came to the back of his wife with a smiling face, and while beating her shoulder, he said, "Madam, I'm not here to defeat the enemy." ”

"For my son? These three envoys are doing, a lot of money every month, you are a good God of Wealth, what kind of old man is still what township, and you say it is for my son? What's the matter with my son? ”

Luo Gongming looked up and saw that there was no one at the door, so he lowered his voice and said, "Madam, how do you know so much about the affairs of the court." The official family has been on the throne for more than two years, as the saying goes, once the son of heaven is a courtier, but since the official family ascended the throne, following the legacy of the first emperor, almost no changes have been made. ”

Mrs. Luo pouted and said, "He touches him, what does it matter to you?" You Luo Gongming is known as a generalist tumbler, and the political arena is not old, and you never follow anything else, and if the official family wants to move people, it will not move you. ”

"Madame, I only know one thing, but I don't know the other."

Luo Gongming changed the beating to a pinch, and very skillfully pinched his wife's shoulder, and said in a low voice: "Hebei Provincial Observation Envoy Wang Jien was arrested and returned to Beijing, saying that the Linfu Rebellion was a trick he colluded with Chizhong in order to make war merits. Immediately afterwards, the imperial court negotiated peace with the Xia State, and the Xia State went to the emperor and accepted the position of the Western Xia Kingdom and the Western Xia King conferred by the imperial court. General Niu Qianwei folded the imperial honor and thanked the official family for resuming his official position as the prefect of Fuzhou and the envoy of the Baode Army, because he was familiar with the situation in Hexi, so he was appointed by the imperial court as the envoy of Hexi Xuanfu, and he was about to take office and go to Xiazhou to serve as the Xuanfu of Western Xia. ”

Mrs. Luo said puzzledly: "What is the matter with you returning to your hometown?" ”

Luo Gongming's eyes flashed slightly, and he said, "The pattern in the court is about to change greatly. Ke Di is now the commander of the palace, and will soon be relieved of this post and serve as a member of the Privy Council. At the same time, the commander of the palace promoted Weber, the commander of the guards and the horse army promoted Xue Sheng, and the deputy envoy of the guards and infantry promoted Huang Daole, all of whom were generals who began to train after the official family ascended the throne.

Zhongshu, Privy Council, Civil and Military Second Yuan, that is the key to holding the two handles of civil and military, my son is young, he became a member of the Privy Council, and his official position is second only to the Privy Envoy Cao Bin and the Privy Deputy Envoy Pan Mei, what do you mean by that? If the old man continues to stay in the DPRK and control the post of the three envoys, that is to block the future of our son, not to mention, even if I don't leave, it will not work, I am not interested in it, and the official family should drive people out. ”

Mrs. Luo understood a little: "You mean...... The official family wants to reuse my son and control the Privy Council, so you have to step down, can't the father and son be in charge of the army and the other in charge of the wealth? ”

Luo Gongming didn't answer, and said: "If that's the case, then that's it, why did the front division of the palace, the guard horse military division, and the guard infantry division also promote their deputies at the same time?" Song Xia negotiated peace, as soon as the war in Hengshan stopped, Pan Mei had to return to Beijing, and the official family at this time made adjustments to the important positions of the army, and the intentions of the official family were ...... Unfathomable.

The undercurrent is turbulent on the military general's side, and the Wenchen's side is also strange and abnormal. Since the assassination of the emperor's eldest son Dezhao, Taifu Zongjiezhou was honored at home as a bachelor, and almost didn't ask about state affairs, but before rì, he suddenly contacted several famous people from the Yushitai and Hanlin Academy, and proposed to the official family that the prince Defang was unparalleled in benevolence and filial piety, and had both ability and political integrity.

And Gu Ruoli, the head of the inner court, will fully liquidate Wang Jien's former henchmen in the palace, and the officials will secretly ask us and other high-ranking officials to secretly inquire about the attitude of deposing the prince and setting up another prince. The old man stood in the imperial court, all for my Luo family, and now that the enemy has become a big weapon, no matter which aspect is considered, the old man should retreat bravely. Madam, the world of the future no longer belongs to me......"

"Then you ...... What to do? ”

Luo Gongming smiled slightly: "Teasing Sun, take your wife to go out for fun, go to the Yixiao Building to talk to three or five confidants, and enjoy your old age." ”

Mrs. Luo was stunned for a moment and said, "In this way, although you have retired, our son has a bright future?" ”

She clapped her palms and said as if she had just woken up from a dream: "My son is about to take up his post in the Privy Council?" From one side to the Privy Council, crossing this hurdle is really promising, hey, how can this be good? My son has become such an important courtier, but he has not yet married a wife and started a family, what kind of system will it become? Fortunately, the woman who sold wine had already cut off contact with my son, and I had to hurry up and give the enemy a family affair. Lu Duoxun, Zhang Xun, and Lu Yuqing all have girls in their families who are just waiting for the word boudoir, and I will find out what their wives mean......"

Mrs. Luo was about to go out in a hurry, but Luo Gongming stopped her and said, "Nonsense, didn't you listen to what I just said?" At this time, don't make any moves. ”

He smiled thoughtfully, and said deeply: "After the court calms down, who will still be able to enjoy the scenery above, maybe now......"

"There is no real friendship between countries, it is always just practical interests. If you have similar interests, you are naturally friends, and if you have conflicting interests, you are naturally enemies. What is a strip of water, generations friendly, do you believe that kind of? The only people who say this kind of thing are the old masters who are stupid enough to read books, and the only people who believe such things are those foolish men and stupid women who are naïve and ignorant. I, Yang Hao, don't believe it, does the king believe it? ”

Jeruhugo snorted coldly and did not speak.

Yang Hao said with a smile: "That's it, so, your country doesn't have to worry about my Xia country's position at all." What I can make clear now is that if the Song State does everything to attack my Xia State, the actual help that the Liao State can give me is actually very limited, and you are not powerless to fight the Song now, but once this battle is fought, the Song State will certainly not take any advantage, and you will also not gain any benefits, so the Liao State will never really fight this battle, do you say? ”

Yelu Xiuge said coldly: "Yes, we have sent troops for you, made enough gestures, and restrained the forces of the Song Kingdom, which is enough." You can't pay enough price to let my Liao really fight for you for the Song Kingdom. However, ......, although we will not really participate in the war, but the Song State will not really make a desperate bet, throwing his soldiers and horses, grain and grass, baggage, and many years of savings all in the bottomless pit of Hexi, since the Song State failed to break through your national capital in one fell swoop, they will not have a second chance, as long as our Liao State stands here, the troops are in Datong, and the Song State will have to think twice about what it wants to do, they will never storm the flanks and continue to attack and fight against your Xia State, the current situation of the Xia State is not as dangerous as you said, Isn't it? ”

Yang Hao said leisurely: "It is true, but I set up myself as the emperor as a courtier of the Song State, which is difficult for the Song State to bear." Just as His Royal Highness King Qing of your country rebelled, the Queen Mother did everything it took to make the army chase all the way to the city of Yinzhou, and had to behead him, just like the Song Kingdom is now also difficult to ride a tiger, whether they want to fight or not, as long as I don't call the ministers surrender, the battle between each other will not stop.

In your country, the Song State will not launch a big battle, but it is inevitable to knock and fight, my Xia State has just been established, although the soldiers and horses are numerous and have their own subordinates, they have not yet had time to integrate; Although the territory is vast and the population is sparse, even if it is knocking and beating, it cannot withstand the toss; Hexi has been fighting for many years, and the agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, industry and commerce industries are not prosperous.

In this case, if the Song State continues to exert pressure on our Xia Kingdom, the Song State can afford it, but my Xia Kingdom cannot afford it. This kind of confrontation is in the interests of the Liao State, but it is definitely not in the interests of our Xia State. It is precisely for this reason that our Xia Kingdom is now forced to sue for peace. Seeking peace is for survival, Xia is still Xia, Xia is to Song, different from the original Han to Liao, therefore, Liao does not have to worry at all, I hope the king can truthfully express my mind to the Queen Mother. ”

Yelu Hugo is the king of the Khitan North Courtyard, a hero on the grassland, not a scoundrel who bullies others, Yang Hao tore away the diplomatic rhetoric that is always covered with a false benevolence and morality when inter-state exchanges, and directly states the facts of interests, which is in line with the pragmatic style of all forces on the grassland when they are trying to survive and survive, which is very much in line with his appetite.

Yang Hao said very clearly: if I want to be the emperor, the Song State will fight me, and it is impossible for your Liao State to directly participate in the war militarily; Materially, they can't give me free assistance and can't meet the needs of the people of my entire country, so I want to ask for peace with the Song State. Asking Song for peace is to survive, not to tease the feelings of the Liao State, and even more so to have no intention of going against the Liao State, you can't stop me from living, right?

The subtext is: If you can understand my hardships, we can still maintain a relationship in secret, as for the future Song-Liao confrontation, we may stand on your side, or we may stand by and watch, what you do is always based on the interests of Liao, and my Xia Kingdom is the same, I don't owe you love, and no one is sorry for anyone. If you continue to force me, that is, you will force me to really throw myself into the Song Kingdom, where to go, you can do it.

Yang Hao did not hide it, and expressed that Liaoxia was actually just a relationship of using each other, but Yelu Xiuge could not accuse him morally and awe-inspiringly. He closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity: "This matter, how should my Liao Kingdom react, Brother Hugh can't be the master, what do you mean, I will play the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother will decide." ”

"That's very good, Yang Hao is waiting for good news." Yang Hao arched his hand, got up and left, Yelu Xiuge's eyes flashed, and he suddenly said, "Wait." ”

Yang Hao looked back, a strange light flashed in Brother Yeluxiu's eyes, he smiled suddenly, and said slowly: "In the past, when I was in Beijing, I had a fight with His Majesty, and I still remember it vividly. After a few years, Your Excellency has become Your Majesty, attacking Xiazhou, conquering Yumen, and his martial arts are impressive, and the world has heard of it. Today, Rì reunites with His Majesty, quite itchy, I wonder if Your Majesty is interested in competing with a certain again? ”
