In the front hall of the Shangjing Imperial Palace, Yelu Hongji sat on the dragon chair and looked at the few important ministers below, and the atmosphere in the hall was also a little heavy. ”

"Qi Yu Majesty, the reason why the Jurchens raised troops this time is mainly because the border army slaughtered the Jurchen tribe for no reason, which caused the dissatisfaction of the Jurchens, so if you want to calm down this matter, you must find out the real culprit who slaughtered the Jurchen tribe!" As soon as Yelu Hongji's words fell, he was the first to stand up and say, he had always advocated the southern invasion of the Great Song Dynasty, but when facing the Jurchens in the northeast, he had always advocated pacification.

"Uncle Huang said lightly, the army stationed on the border is no longer the Khitan iron cavalry of the year, many garrisons are corrupt in military discipline, and they dare to privately send troops to loot for the sake of money, and even some ministers deliberately condone this situation, and even lead the border garrison to be lawless, and countless armies leave the country to loot every year, in this case, even if a special person is sent to investigate, I am afraid that there will be no results in a short time, and those Jurchens will not obediently wait for us to investigate!" As soon as Yelu Chongyuan's words fell, he saw a middle-aged man in his fifties in the main hall snort coldly.

I saw that this middle-aged man was burly and dignified, standing there with a majesty of his own, which made people dare not despise him, this person was the Yelu Renxian that Zhao Ji wanted to see before, the reason why he did not participate in the banquet was because the Jurchens on the other side of Changbai Mountain made a fuss, and he originally thought that the other party was the same as in previous years. Just a fuss will calm down, but the news he just received made him realize the severity of the matter.

"Yelu Renxian, who do you say connived at the looting of the border army?" Hearing Yelu Renxian's words, Yelu stepped forward vigorously, pointed to his nose and asked, as the generalissimo of the Liao State, although he does not really monopolize the military power, but the border army is indeed controlled by him, and the connivance of the border army looting is indeed from his connivance, but he will naturally not admit it above the court. On the contrary, he questioned the other party confidently.

"Hmph. It is also an indisputable fact that whether it is the Jurchen or the Great Song Dynasty border, many Liao troops go out to loot every year. Among them, the Song people are cowardly. But the Jurchens were originally a group of savages. Now that they are annoyed by the other party, they will not think about the consequences, if they really fight. In the end, even if we win, we will be greatly damaged, how can this be exchanged for just a few things? Yelu Renxian also fought back without backing down, he had long been unaccustomed to Yelu Chongyuan's father and son's connivance at the looting of the border garrison, and this time he just took the opportunity to bring it up, so as to attract Yelu Hongji's attention.

However, Yelu Hongji waved his hand to stop it: "Uncle Huang and King Xu, don't quarrel anymore, now that the Jurchens have been assembled, we can't find the murderer in a short time, and even if we find it, we can't hand over our own soldiers to the Jurchens to deal with, otherwise it will seem that our Da Liao is too weak to those Jurchen savages, so now is not the time to argue about who is right and who is wrong, but how to deal with those Jurchen savages?" ”

Hearing Yelu Hongji's words, Yelu Chongyuan and Yelu Renxian stopped arguing, but the two still glared at each other angrily and refused to give in at all, anyway, the two of them were already like fire and water because of their political disagreements, so they didn't have to give each other any face at all.

"Your Majesty, according to the old minister's opinion, the most important thing we need to do now in Da Liao is to send a capable person to the Changbai Mountain area, if the Jurchens dare not send troops, it will be fine, in case the other party really sends troops, then it is good to immediately raise troops to suppress it, and this time we must kill it fiercely, only if those Jurchen savages are killed, they will not dare to resist again in the future!" At this time, I saw Zhang Xiaojie finally stand up and speak.

"What Prime Minister Zhang said is good, although the Jurchens are a group of savages, but they are not afraid of death when fighting, if there is no important minister in charge, the garrison in the east may be difficult to block the attack of the Jurchens, so the minister also feels that he must send a heavy minister to sit in the town!" At this time, Yelu Yixin also stood up and said, although he and Zhang Xiaojie have been a little dirty recently, but in this kind of state affairs, they can still distinguish the importance.

"Sending people must send people, but now the question is who to send, this person must know military affairs, and in addition, he must have prestige, otherwise he will not be able to command those arrogant border troops at all." Yelu Hongji sighed again when he heard this, the power of the Jurchens has developed very quickly over the years, don't look at them The Liao people call the Jurchens savages, as if they disdain, but in fact, the Jurchens have already become the first major disaster of the Liao State, the reason why the Liao army has not invaded the Great Song Dynasty in the south in these years, in addition to the Tanyuan Alliance of the year, the biggest reason is because the rise of the Jurchens has restrained a considerable part of the strength of the Liao State.

Hearing Yelu Hongji's words, Yelu Yixin and Zhang Xiaojie also frowned, this candidate should indeed be cautious, after all, this is related to the stability of the eastern border of Liao, you must know that Changbai Mountain is not particularly far from Shangjing, if the Jurchens are allowed to attack the interior of Daliao, it is likely that it will not take a few days to threaten Shangjing.

"Your Majesty, the old man thinks that King Xu is very suitable, he used to be a stay-behind guard in Tokyo, and he has repelled the attacks of the Jurchens several times, I heard that the Jurchens are very afraid of him, and he is now an important minister of the court, so this is none other than him!" At this time, I saw Yelu Chongyuan suddenly smile and say.

"Hmph, Uncle Huang is too modest, everyone knows that you are the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses in our Great Liao, if Uncle Huang goes to the eastern border, maybe the Jurchens will be scared and dare not send troops at all!" Yelu Ren heard the other party's words first and immediately sneered, in fact, it was not that he didn't want to go, but he couldn't go at all, after all, now Yelu Chongyuan has the power alone, if he leaves, only Yelu Yixin and Zhang Xiaojie will no longer be able to contain Yelu Chongyuan's father and son.

However, what Yeluren never expected was that just when his words fell, I saw Zhang Xiaojie suddenly step forward and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the imperial uncle's construction is very good, when King Xu was guarding Tokyo, the Jurchens who fought did not dare to go out of the mountain, plus the important ministers in the court, only King Xu has the ability and prestige to deal with this matter." ”

Yeluren heard Zhang Xiaojie's words first, and immediately stared at each other with his eyes fixed, speaking of which, although he and Zhang Xiaojie are also incompatible, but it is just some personal grievances, because there is a common enemy of Yelu Chongyuan in the court, so they can still advance and retreat together, but now the other party disregards the overall situation and asks him to deal with the affairs of the Jurchens, which is a bit abnormal, is it true that the previous rumor that Zhang Xiaojie and Yelu Chongyuan reconciled?

Yelu Hongji, who was sitting on the dragon chair, heard Yelu Chongyuan and Zhang Xiaojie's construction, and couldn't help but ponder at the moment, although he didn't like to deal with the government very much, but he still had some understanding of the situation in the court, and he also knew that Yelu Chongyuan and the four of them were divided into two factions, so as to maintain a balance, if one person was transferred, it was likely to break the balance.

However, Yelu Hongji felt that Yelu Chongyuan and Zhang Xiaojie were right, if the most suitable person in the court was really Yelu Renxian, and he also trusted Yelu Renxian very much, and he sent him to Changbai Mountain, he was even more relieved.

Thinking of this, Yelu Hongji couldn't help but be a little moved, Zhang Xiaojie is a master of observing words and feelings, and immediately saw Yelu Hongji's thoughts, and immediately signaled to Yelu Chongyuan, but Yelu Chongyuan also immediately understood, stepped forward again and said: "Your Majesty, the situation on the Jurchens' side is extremely critical, and it may be possible to enter our country at any time, so please make a decision as soon as possible!" ”

"This ......" Yelu Hongji was still a little hesitant when he heard this, and at this time, Yelu Renxian also saw that the situation was not good, and he spoke again at the moment, "Your Majesty, the old minister is not willing to go to the east to guard, but the affairs of the court and China are busy, and His Majesty is on the occasion of his birthday, so he really can't be separated, so please think twice!" ”

After hearing this, Yelu Hongji was a little wavering again, he was not a decisive emperor in the first place, so he really couldn't make up his mind about this matter. But at this moment, he suddenly saw Yelu Yixin who had been standing there without speaking, which made him happy in his heart, and he immediately spoke: "King Zhao, I don't know who you think you should send?" ”

King Zhao is Yelu Yixin's title, and now hearing Yelu Hongji ask his opinion, Yelu Yixin couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, and finally looked up at Yelu Chongyuan and Yelu Renxian, and finally spoke: "Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that it is very appropriate to send King Xu to go, but King Xu is old after all, so the minister thinks that he can send another young important minister to assist him, and the king of Chu, Yelu Nerugu, is suitable to serve as King Xu's deputy!" ”

Yelu Yixin is worthy of being a famous traitor in the history of the Liao State, and his brain is also turning very fast, he doesn't like Yelu Renxian, but he doesn't want to see the balance in the court broken after the other party leaves, so he simply sent Yelu Renxian and Yelu Nerugu out, Yelu Nerugu is the son of Yelu Chongyuan, and it is also one of the most important arms of Yelu Chongyuan.

Hearing Yelu Yixin's words, Yelu Chongyuan immediately glared at him angrily, Yelu Ren first thought about it and nodded lightly, only Zhang Xiaojie was silent, so people couldn't guess what he was thinking?

"This method is good, King Xu has prestige and experience, and King Chu is young and energetic, if the two of them are sent forward, I am afraid that even if the Jurchens do their best, I will sit back and relax!" Yelu Hongji praised loudly when he heard this, and at the same time he also valued Yelu Yixin even more.

Since even Yelu Hongji made a decision, then this matter is a foregone conclusion, and now Yelu Renxian immediately agreed, although Yelu Chongyuan was a little unwilling, but there was no way, and in the end he had to nod his head in agreement.

A few days later, when Zhao Yan and Zhao Ji learned of the above situation, the two of them became distressed again, because they originally only wanted to transfer Yeluren away first, so as to break the balance in the court, but they didn't expect that even Yelu Nerugu was also transferred, so that the court of Liao State was balanced again, what can I do now?
