In a small courtyard in Nanjing, Liaoning, the pomegranate flowers have just fallen, and they are hanging fruits, and there is a small goldfish bowl on the cyan brick surface, and a fat orange cat is probing its brain in the yard.

Although it is not as lively as Bianliang, it is very suitable for life.

Xu Yongzhi sat on a rattan chair in the courtyard and fell asleep unconsciously.

He felt that his soul mate should be Xia Xiaogui, but the loss of Duan Meimei made him feel that a part of his life was no longer complete, and the pain of losing his lover was slowly coming.

Xiaogui went out early in the morning with a vegetable basket, this is the best season in Youzhou, all kinds of fresh vegetables, are listed in this season, the Youzhou water and grass of the Liao Dynasty are abundant, near Wanquanzhuang where the northwest spring water is dense, people are trying to cultivate rice. This is the land of fish and rice in the north, and for a moment, Xiaogui will feel that this place is a bit like a forest spring.

Liao, like the Song Dynasty, had five capitals, of which Nanjing was the largest, and by the time of the Taiping Rejuvenation period, Liao Nanjing had a population of 300,000 and a strong city wall.

Xu Yongzhi also came to Nanjing City for the first time, and when he saw the city wall, he knew that Zhao Er couldn't beat Nanjing at all.

"This kind of city has to mobilize about 300,000 troops, and there must be siege equipment, which lasts for half a year." Xu Yongzhi thought.

In fact, Zhao Guangyi also understood the difficulty of attacking Liaonanjing, but he still had a fantasy.

After defeating the main force of the Khitans in the field battle, and defeating the Khitans, the Han people in Nanjing, Liao, would fall to meet the royal division of the imperial court.

It's like the mouse's clever plan: "We hang a bell on the cat, so that when it comes, we will hear it." ”

The question is, who is going to hang this bell for the cat?

Defeating the Khitan cavalry is actually the most difficult, neither Cao Bin nor Pan Mei has this self-confidence, Yang Ye is a newly attached general, and he can't command a too large army.

"If Xu Jin is ......" everyone will think of Xu Jin when they think of this, and a complicated expression will appear.

This expression constantly stimulated Zhao Guangyi, and finally made him constantly urge the military horses to gallop, and his army continued to defeat the small forces of the Liao army, and soon arrived outside the city of Nanjing, Liao.

Someone outside knocked on the door.

Is Xiaogui back? Xu Yongzhi slowly stood up and walked to the gate of the courtyard.

Outside the door, there was a man who looked like a scholar, in his thirties, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, about the same age as himself, with a bronze complexion and long beard.

"Excuse me, are you Xu Xianggong?"

"Don't dare to be, my surname is Xu."

Xu Yongzhi didn't know who the other party was, but seeing that the other party was only one person, there was no blade, so there should be no hostility.

"It's Liao Guoren below, I heard about Xu Xianggong's reputation, and I wanted to get acquainted, so I came to pay a visit."

"If you have to get to know me, you should start with my real name." Xu Yongzhi looked at "Liao Guoren" and said coldly.

Liao Guoren laughed.

"How do you tell?"

"When we Han people introduce themselves, we can say our own words, but you don't, you wear Confucian clothes, and you don't say your own words, then nine times out of ten, you are Khitans, right."

"Xu Xianggong won't look down on the Khitans, right?"

"Of course not, you're the second best knight I've ever met." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Oh? So who's the best one? Long Jiejun or the guard pro-army? Are you sure they are better than the Great Liao's Leather Chamber Army? Liao Guoren said.

Xu Yongzhi immediately understood that this Liao Guoren was obviously a high-ranking official of the Liao State, and this directly pointed out the Pi Room Army, which showed that he was a person familiar with the military and political affairs of the Liao State.

Just a month ago, he might have grabbed the other party and interrogated the other party's details, but now, he can sit down and talk about his heart.

"The best knights are the knights of the Jurchens, and I have had the privilege of fighting with several people like this, in Hunan." Xu Yongzhi said.

He was talking about the Jurchens he met at the gladiatorial tournament organized by Li Lianqiao before.

"Oh, Xu Xianggong is very familiar with the situation in the north." Liao Guoren said.

"If one day someone can defeat Da Liao, it must be a Jurchen knight." Xu Yongzhi said.

Liao Guoren smiled, he didn't believe it.

"Sit down and have tea." Xu Yongzhi said.

He turned on the small charcoal stove and made water, and when the water boiled, he chopped the tea cakes and threw them into the teapot and began to boil the tea.

I started to brew tea directly with boiling water, and that was all later.

"Get used to our tea." Xu Yongzhi asked.

"No problem." Liao Guoren said.

"Tell me your true identity, are you Yelu Xuan, or Yelu Hugo?" Xu Yongzhi asked.

"Good eyesight, I've guessed within two people." Liao Guoren said.

"The two of you who are the best at fighting in Nanjing City, but I guess you are Brother Hugh, Yelu is a person with a very heroic temperament, he will definitely tell me, what kind of tea to drink, I want to drink."

"Hahaha, he is indeed that kind of person," Liao Guoren smiled, "Xu Xianggong, I am Brother Yelu Xiu." ”

"I've borrowed your city to hide my body and caused you trouble." Xu Yongzhi brought the tea to Brother Yelu Xiu.

There is a mystery in this, I am hiding it from you, and I am causing you trouble.

"Xu Jin is a prisoner of the Song court, if you are worried that the Song Emperor will ask for me, you can tie me up now." Xu Yongzhi said.

This is even more powerful, if you are afraid of him, hand me over or away.

"Where are these words!" Yelu Xiuge said in surprise, "You see that I don't bring soldiers or swords, I came here to make friends with you, and we have never been afraid of the Song people." ”

This is true, in the eyes of the Khitans, the southerners have always been weak enemies, and this year is a bit of an exception, the Song army was at the peak of its combat effectiveness and scale in the Northern Song Dynasty, so it has been touched outside the city of Nanjing.

"I won't help you kill Song Jun, let's talk about it first." Xu Yongzhi took a sip of tea.

"I won't let you do something like that, we Khitans value the tribe the most, if you want to be greedy for life and fear death, join us to slaughter your own people, although I will pretend to be happy and use you, but I will also look down on you." Jerushuge said.

"So how can I help you?" Xu Yongzhi asked.

"Can Xu Xianggong tell me who is the emperor of the Song State who can negotiate and is willing?" Jeruhukgo asked.

"Zhao Pu and Cao Bin are fine." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Who is the one who fears that the world will not be chaotic?" Jeruhukgo asked.

"Concubine Li Forsythia." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Who is the kind of person who only obeys the emperor, along with it?"

"Panmei." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Okay, think about being an official of our Daliao and governing a city, and it won't be in vain to waste your talents." Jerushuge said.

"I don't have such a plan for the time being, I'm physically and mentally exhausted, and I've never slept for so long in all these years." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Don't worry, these are all afterwords," Jeruxiu Ge took out two envelopes, "This is the legal identity document of several members of the family, issued by the privy envoy of the Southern Court, and you will not be troubled here; This letter is a little bit of my personal heart, I have lost Mrs. Zun, but I have to continue, if Xu Xianggong needs to continue or take a concubine, I can also arrange it. ”

"Thank you, Lord Yelu, I still have a lady here, and I have no other plans for the time being." Xu Yongzhi made a gesture.

"This yard is a bit rudimentary, why don't I arrange a residence." Jerushuge said.

"I don't want to be a vassal to the Emperor of Liao, Lord Yelu." Xu Yongzhi said.

"I never wanted you to be a minister, I wanted to be you of Da Liao, I wanted you to assist me." Jeruxiugo looked nearby and said in a low voice.

"I've already ruined my family, and you want to be me?" Xu Yongzhi said with a wry smile.

"It's not that scholars are ruined, but that you become the pillar of Daliao and be the one who turns the tide." Jerushuge said.

"Your Excellency, you're thinking too much." Xu Yongzhi said.

"If you can become my military advisor, I am willing to divide my fortune and property equally with you," said Yelu Hugo, "We Liao people do not have so many twists and turns, and our sincerity is to give you money, wine, women, and friendship." ”

"Thanks, I'll think about it."

At this time, the courtyard door was pushed open with a creak.

Xiaogui came in with meat and vegetables.

Jerushuge was taken aback.

"This is Uchiko, surnamed Xia." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Hello ma'am." Brother Yelu made a salute, and Xiaogui hurriedly put down the things in his hand and returned the salute.

Yelu Hugo looked at Xiaogui and felt that she was long and jade, and she was a real stunning woman.

"I see, it looks like you don't need a beautiful woman or something." Brother Jerry Hugh laughed and said goodbye.

"Since it's a friend of Xianggong, let's stay and eat." Xiaogui said.

Yelu Hugo looked at the meat and vegetables in Xiaogui's hands.

There is simply not enough to eat.

"No need, I'll bother next time." Jeruxiugo said with a smile.

"Who is this?" Xiaogui closed the door and asked Xu Yongzhi.

"Khitan's general, Yelu Huge." Xu Yongzhi said.

"This guy feels good." Xiaogui said.

"Smart people." Xu Yongzhi said.

"What does he want to do?" Xiaogui asked.

"Let me be his advisor." Xu Yongzhi smiled and said.

"He should be able to see that you are unwilling to be an official of the Khitan." Xiaogui said.

"Yes, but his plan is to let me be his man." Xu Yongzhi said.

There was a gentle knock on the door again.

Xiaogui put on his short sword, went over and opened the door, and the person outside the door was Chen Xiaofan.

"Senior brother, little noble sister." Chen Xiaohuan greeted the two.

"Senior sister," Xu Yongzhi got up and greeted Chen Xiaohuan, "Everyone in Bianliang is okay." ”

"Don't worry," Chen Xiaohuan's eyes were red, "everyone has withdrawn safely." ”

"That's good," Xu Yongzhi breathed a sigh of relief, "It's me who is angry, and everyone has lost a lot." ”

"I thought you should have taken this step a long time ago," Chen Xiaohuan said, "Now I think it's very good, have the Liao people looked for you?" ”

"You're asking right, there's one just now." Xiaogui said.

"If you agree, you will agree," Chen Xiaohuan said, "Beat Zhao Eryi to relieve hatred, don't care about Song Jun's life and death anymore, they are no longer your people, if you fall into their hands today, you will be a million guan and a marquis of ten thousand households." ”

Chen Xiaohuan is right.

But it is really difficult for Xu Yongzhi to make such a decision.

"That Liao native is here to make friends with me, not to make me an official of Liao." Xu Yongzhi said.

"Interesting, do the Liao people have such interesting people?"

At this time, someone knocked on the door outside the door, and Xiaogui opened the door.

Two men carried a large jar of wine, and two men carried a roast sheep

"May I ask if this is the Mansion of Duke Xu?" The guy asked.

"What's the matter, this is ......"

"Lord Yelu saw that your family has a lot of vegetables and little meat, so he sent a roast sheep!"

"Senior brother, this friend of yours is quite sensible!" Chen Xiaohuan said with a smile.

Xu Yongzhi looked at this sheep, crispy, crispy, fat, thin.

He sighed, always feeling that there was something hidden in this matter.
