Chapter 136: Subversion

Although Yelu Yu Liyan was temporarily freed from her life of exile, she was discouraged by the situation, and the experience of being captured caused her to wake up from nightmares at night. After learning that Ah Guda was in a personal expedition, her mood was even more depressed, she had read a lot of books, of course, she knew that when the country was ruined and the family was ruined in the history of Lu Dao, which of those princesses who could survive was full of bitterness and humiliation. That's why she always has a dagger hidden by her side, and when bad luck strikes, she will make a cut for herself.

However, life is like a drama, joys and sorrows. The Texas army not only succeeded in repelling the Jurchens, but also recovered the Xijing Prefectures, and the frightened heart had just settled down, and unexpectedly he was actually pushed to the highest position of power on the Xijing Road. Growing up in the whirlpool of power struggles, she is very aware of her situation, but it is the result of many compromises, and she is a princess, but she can only become a tool for others to fight for power and profit, and cannot control her own destiny.

The hardships of her youth made Yu Liyan experience the hardships of the world, and also exercised her tenacious character. She knew that she couldn't escape, but calmed down, the world is so strife, it is not easy to survive in chaos, it requires a high degree of wisdom and survival skills. And even among the Khitans with a high status of women, in the special era of equal emphasis on monarchy and husband's power, they only exist as vassals of men, and they don't have many opportunities to serve the country.

On the fifth day of the first day of November, the car of the princess of the great Liao Shu Kingdom drove into the Xijing City, for convenience, she did not live in the left embassy office on the side of the arch gate, but lived in a two-entry courtyard in the west of the city, which was the palace of Xiao Yanyan, the empress dowager of the Liao State. Called Fengtai. The terrain of Xijing City is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. This is the highest place in the city, and the Empress Dowager Xiao has built two left and right stations several zhang high. The building is built on the platform, and the scenery inside and outside the city is in full view.

Xiao Yanyan is a man of the year in the history of Liao, once held the power of Liao, can be described as a veritable empress, Song Liao's "The Alliance of Yuanyuan" was presided over by him, and today Yu Liyan moved in seems to be a certain number in the dark. When the officials in the city entered the court, they saw the princess sitting on the high seat with a precarious expression, looking forward to it and behaving elegantly. Coupled with her innate beauty and decent response, it is unbelievable that people suspect that her appearance is not proportional to her actual age, but she is indeed the princess of Shu who has gone through vicissitudes.

Yu Liyan climbed into the dressing room, which is said to be the favorite place of her grandmother a hundred years ago, she pushed open the attic window and looked out, the flagpole in front of the door danced with the wind and made a loud noise, Xijing City, which had just experienced the war, seemed to have not woken up from the panic, and there was not a single pedestrian on the street. There are only a few sparks in the huge city, and the darkness is depressing.

"Princess, it's snowing!" The maid put a white mouse skin on Yu Liyan and said softly.

"Hmm!" Yu Liyan replied softly and reached out to catch a falling snowflake. Watching it slowly melt, "Will you be like a snowflake, everything in front of you is a passing cloud of smoke." A little is a loss! ”

Today's scene in the hall is still vivid, and those people don't seem to have taken their princess seriously. It is a tool for them to compete for power and profit, whether it is the uncle Yelu Yu. or his uncle Xiao Chara, who boasted that he couldn't beat him, argued endlessly about the appointment of a small magistrate in front of him, but no one thought to ask his opinion.

"Princess, there are a lot of good things they have sent!" Just as Yu Liyan was feeling sorry for herself, the exclamation of the maid came from behind her.

"Boria, how are you rummaging things!" Looking at the several boxes that were opened on the ground, Yu Liyan frowned and said. The maids and guards in the courtyard were all arranged by her uncle Yelu Yu, and there must be eyeliners to monitor her every move, so she had to be careful.

"Princess, the slave just wants to tidy things up, and doesn't want to alarm the princess!" Boria's face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly saluted.

"Who sent all this?" Yu Liyan didn't delve into it, but saw that these things were familiar and asked casually.

"Princess, Du Shuai said that Zhao Ergongzi sent someone to send it, congratulations to the princess on her succession, and the white mouse skin was also sent together!" Boriai replied cautiously.

"Oh! How could it be him? Yu Liyan was a little surprised, he only had a one-sided friend with him, and he didn't know what it meant to give her a gift, "These are my old things!" She casually opened a box, only to find that it was all jewelry that she had lost when she was captured by the Jurchens, and another one was her own clothes.

"This second son of Zhao is really interesting, but he gives gifts but gives some things of his own!" Bori said with a smile.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Yu Liyan glared at Bori Ai and said, but there were waves in his heart,

Among the items returned were not only the daily necessities of the past, but also the seal of his own princess, and these things must have been handed over to the Golden Emperor as the most important loot for merit. But now it is returned intact by Zhao Er, which shows that he took it back from the Jurchens, but according to his uncle, he is just a child of a family, how can he have such ability, could it be that he was the one who attacked the camp of Agu?

"Princess, what's wrong with you?" Boria looked at the princess in a daze and hurriedly asked.

"It's okay, you put all these things away, I'm tired!" Yu Liyan said casually, but he was still thinking about it in his heart, remembering the things that day they met, Yelu Yu and Zhao Er seemed to be familiar with each other, and called each other brothers, but they were very respectful in their words, which showed that he was afraid of Zhao Er.

"Could it be that Zhao Er is the real lord of Texas, defeating the Jurchens, capturing Xijing, recovering the lost land, etc., are all his doings!" Yu Liyan gradually figured out that this mysterious Zhao Er was by no means an idle and wild crane-like figure on the surface.

"My uncle is trying his best to get me married to him, and I think that's because of this! If it comes true, maybe it can help me! "If a woman wants to realize her ambitions, marriage is often the only shortcut, just like the old ancestor who once lived in this building, Yu Liyan fell into contemplation again...

………

At this moment, Zhao Tan didn't know that he had provoked Yue Lao'er again, and he was discussing with Ah Shu about the establishment of a rebel army, contacting the rebel against Ah Gu's forces, plotting against the Jurchens of various tribes, subverting the Ah Gu regime, and establishing a new regime. After more than half a year of planning, Ah Shu selected more than 1,000 Jin soldiers captured by the Texas army, and after some training and brainwashing, after careful screening, there were 500 people left, and these people will be his team to sneak back to the Jurchens to engage in the revolutionary cause of overthrowing the tyranny of Ah Guta.

"Mr. Shu, are these people you selected reliable?" Zhao Ta poured a glass of wine for Ah Shu and said.

"Brother, don't worry, the people I have selected are all from the Punie tribe, the Mo Twist tribe, the Sushi Lie tribe, the Shilu tribe, and the Taodeli tribe, these five clans are feuding with the Wanyan tribe, and they will never betray me!" Ah Shu said confidently.

"That's good, it's just that the Yan Department has become a climate, so you still have to be careful!" Zhao Ta nodded and said.

"Cut, what kind of thing is Wanyanbu, how dare they provoke us back then, and then it was with the help of the Khitans that we have today, but they..." Ah Shu drank all the wine in the bowl and talked about their grievances with Wanyanbu.

Pu Nie Department, this is an extremely fierce clan of the birth of Jurchen, and he has inherited the eagle spirit of Ning Bending in his bones. As early as the reign of the Sui and Tang dynasties, this tribe had a very rebellious spirit, "rebelling and obeying", and once assisted Goguryeo to stop the Tang Dynasty and the Bohai State to stop the Khitan. In tribal warfare, the territory is constantly expanding. They and the other four neighboring tribes are collectively called the Five Kingdoms, when Yelu Zongzhen was the emperor, in order to appease the birth of the Jurchen, and rewarded the title of the envoy of the Five Kingdoms to the chief of the Pu Nie Alliance, Ba Yimen, at that time, the Wanyan Department was far less powerful than the Pu Nie Ministry, just their small followers.

In order to resist the forcible conquest and tyranny of the Khitans, the five Jurchen heroes rebelled against Liao, they killed silver angels, captured the Liao State guards, blocked the Eagle Road, and prevented the Liao State Eagle Catchers and officials at all levels from entering the Ministry of the Five Kingdoms. In the process of pacifying the Eagle Road in the Liao Dynasty, the Wanyan tribe that accepted Zhao'an defeated the alliance of the five tribes together with the Liao army, captured and killed the patriarch, and these tribes formed a feud with the Wanyan tribe, and fought with each other more than once, but they were defeated by the gradually stronger Wanyan tribe and had to rely on them, but the hatred did not disappear.

Zhao Ta slowly understood, it turned out that it was the Wanyan Department that accepted the leadership of the Liao State at the earliest, and the tribe to which Ah Shu belonged was against the Khitans. But as the Wanyan tribe was supported by the Khitans, they began to oppose the Liao, while the other tribes who were bullied by the Wanyan tribe began to cooperate with the Khitans to deal with the Wanyan tribe together, among which Ah Shu is their outstanding representative, it is really impermanent, hatred can even make people change their positions and betray their past beliefs, and now he is also relieved!

"Brother, do you really think our chance has come?" Ah Shu has devoted himself to resisting the Yan Department for more than 20 years, and has experienced countless failures, and now that he is old, he really can't afford to lose!

"In the six or seven years after the Wanyan Department recovered the various departments, from Tokyo to Shangjing, from Shangjing to Zhongjing, and from Zhongjing to Xijing, and they wanted to use troops against Nanjing, and they also provoked the party members, such a large-scale use of troops, did their best to lengthen the battle line, occupied such a large territory, has become the end of the strong crossbow, it can be said that the more fierce the climax, the faster the exhaustion of the people will die!" Zhao Ta said with a smile.

"Ha Luha, my brother is rough, but it is not unreasonable!" Ah Shu Da Lu smiled and said, "Then why did the brother ask us to start from Goryeo? He laughed for a while, wiped away his tears, and asked.

"Liaodong is a place where the Wanyan Department has been operating for a long time, where taxes are light and you can get some benefits, so if you enter rashly, it will be difficult to stand on your feet, the foundation is not strong, and the battle will naturally be difficult to fight..." )
