270.The Great Hero Qiao Feng (2)
Here, Ye Xiaochai was wondering, and in the ironclad mountain forest outside the main hall, two big men wearing general's armor flashed out and walked into the palace gate.
Xiao Feng's face was originally not angry and arrogant, but when he saw these two big men, he was shocked in his heart, and blurted out: "Two commanders, how can they also appear here?" ”
These two big men are the two chief and deputy commanders of the current Liao State Lord Yelu Hongji's personal guards, and they can be said to be the most trusted people around the Liao lords.
The two commanders looked at each other, and then looked at the disbelief on Xiao Feng's face at this time, as if they were ashamed, and they both lowered their heads involuntarily.
In the end, it was the tall and thin orthodox leader who whispered: "King Xiao, I'm sorry!" This time, we came to disobey because of His Majesty's hand. ”
"By His Majesty's hand?" Xiao Feng's face turned pale, his eyes were closed, and he shook his head: "Impossible, I am like brothers to Your Majesty, and I don't do anything rebellious...... My father was a minister of the temple before his death, and my Xiao family was loyal up and down, so how can I say that I am rebellious? ”
"This ......" The two leaders and deputy commanders, you look at me, I look at you, and then look at Yelu Moge, who has a gloomy face, and all of them are sneering: "This...... King Xiao is a little calm, His Majesty's edict just said, I want to assist General Yelu to capture you, detain you in the heavenly prison first, and then dispose of it...... As for what kind of crime King Xiao has committed, I really don't know. ”
"Where did you get all this nonsense! Now that you have your majesty's decree, you can take it directly! If Xiao Feng dares to resist stubbornly, then he will be killed on the spot! Don't think about the old days! Brother Yelu Mo snorted coldly.
"Oh? Then I want to ask General Yelu, what heinous crime did Xiao commit that provoked His Majesty to personally issue an edict to put me in prison for questioning? Xiao Feng was also angry at this time, his face was like frost, and he asked.
"This matter involves a major secret, if I say it in public, I am afraid of insulting the reputation of the distant mountain duke!" The Yuanshan Gong mentioned by Yelu Moge is Xiao Feng's father, Xiao Yuanshan, who died of illness a year ago.
"Joke! I, Xiao, have been bright and upright in my life, and I have never done anything with a guilty conscience, and you keep slandering me with some trumped-up charges, but you refuse to say it clearly, don't you have a ghost in your heart? Xiao Feng took a step forward, and his beard under his chin was erected, and he was dignified: "If Xiao really does something that people and gods are angry about, you might as well say it in front of these thousands of soldiers, and let me die clearly!" ”
"Humph! Traitor to the country and collaborating with the enemy, what is the crime? Brother Yelu Mo sneered: "Left and right! Take it for me! ”
"Wait!" One hand directly stopped the soldiers who were about to rush up, and everyone looked at it, and it was actually the shorter and fat deputy commander.
"Deputy Commander, what do you mean! Want to disobey the holy decree? Brother Yelu Mo was startled at first, and then looked at the deputy commander coldly: "Don't be emotional!" ”
"Emotional? General Jeru, you are right. The deputy commander's face turned red, and he said with a stiff neck: "When the Great Song Dynasty waved his division to counterattack the sixteen states of Yanyun, Lao Tzu was on the front line. I led 3,000 soldiers and horses alone, struggling to support, I was already ready to sacrifice my life for the country, if it weren't for Prince Xiao leading a group of elite cavalry to gallop thousands of miles to help at the risk of being besieged and killed, how could I stand here now? ”
"In the past few years that King Xiao has served as the king of the Southern Courtyard, I don't know how many menacing attacks of the Great Song Kingdom have been blocked, and there are countless Song pigs who have personally stabbed them! You say he is a traitor and collaborator? I don't buy it! ”
"This bastard!" Gu Fan hid behind the doorpost, feeling slightly uncomfortable, he himself is an orthodox Han nationality, since ancient times, Hu and Han have not been separated, strictly speaking, the Song Dynasty can be described as the orthodoxy of the Han people, this leader has a lot of contempt and insults to the Song people between his words, which makes Gu Fan very unhappy.
"Not bad!" At this time, the taller and thinner orthodox leader couldn't help but say: "King Xiao is fiercely loyal to our Great Liao, and has made indelible military exploits, if he can actually collaborate with the enemy and betray the country, I don't believe it." I am afraid that Your Majesty may be deceived by traitors and listen to some false rumors, so I have wronged a good person! ”
"Hehe, Grand Commander, are you secretly saying that my Brother Yelu Mo is the traitorous villain?"
"Don't dare!" The orthodox leader shook his head: "General Yelu is also an old man beside His Majesty, naturally his loyalty can be seen, this time he ordered his troops to surround King Xiao, and he was just acting on orders, I am afraid that the traitorous villain has someone else, but he has fooled the rest of our brothers!" ”
"Xiao Feng collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, the evidence is ironclad, you don't follow His Majesty's orders, but cover him everywhere, what is the reason?" Yelu Moge seemed a little angry and blurted out.
"General Yelu's words are wrong, if King Xiao really has the act of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, I can't let him go first!" The orthodox leader said: "It's just King Xiao's talent and character, for so many years, the old brothers have naturally seen it, and now just based on General Yelu's sentence of 'ironclad evidence', he wants to send King Xiao to prison, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate, right?" ”
"Exactly! Precisely! Although Lao Tzu owes King Xiao a life, if he really has to do something sorry for our Da Liao, I will kill him first, then commit suicide, and give him back this old life, what about it? The deputy commander snorted: "It's just the general's words on your side, you want to put a king of the Southern Courtyard who has made great achievements in war into prison, how can there be such a reason in the world!" ”
"Besides, His Majesty's edict was also handed over to us and the other two through the hand of your Yelu Moge, who knows if you have done anything in it?"
"Presumptuous!" Yelu Moge's face changed, the hat of the deputy commander was buttoned too big, even he was the general of the left, he couldn't take it, he looked at the soldiers outside the hall with iron spears and long knives, but found that these people had different looks, many of them were like the two leaders and deputy commanders with resentment, but I was afraid that I could hear the heroic deeds of Xiao Feng, the king of the Southern Courtyard on weekdays, and now I saw the awe-inspiring and righteous appearance of the real person, and I was even more heartbroken, I was afraid that if Xiao Feng climbed on a high place and raised his arms, there would be no armor soldiers who turned against each other.
At this time, Brother Yelu Mo suddenly realized that he couldn't imagine that Xiao Feng's prestige in the army was so high, and his fear of him deepened in his heart.
After thinking about it, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and said slowly: "It's okay! If you insist on the truth, what if I, Brother Yelumo, tell you? ”
