Chapter 38 The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun
The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are more important to the Khitan than Yelu Hongji! Even if Yelu Hongji is the emperor of the Khitan!
The emperor can be re-established, and once the sixteen states of Yanyun are lost, then the Khitan threat to the Great Song Dynasty will be much less!
Although most of the Khitans are still very brave now! But the top has fallen! Because most of the Khitan people are still living a very hard life, in order to eat, drink, and survive, they must be brave!
The territory of the Khitan is huge, but there is not much place to plant! And the Khitans are not good at planting.
If the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are lost, then the Khitan will not only lose a lot of talents to govern the country! And it will also have a great impact on life!
Only with the sixteen states of Yanyun in hand, the Great Song Dynasty will be very jealous of the Khitan, so that the New Year's coins will continue! Let them eat and drink without worry! Especially at the top.
If Yelu Hongji wants to return the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, he will offend all the Khitan nobles! When the time comes, he, the emperor, will be the end!
Therefore, whether it is public or private, it is impossible for Yelu Hongji to return the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun!
"I naturally know that it is impossible for you to return the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun!" Liu Hong pursed his lips and smiled: "But! I want you to put him in the hands of one man! ”
"Who? Could it be you? Yelu Hongji listened to Liu Hong's words, and immediately laughed, and looked at Liu Hong with mocking eyes.
"How could it be! The King of the Southern Courtyard is your sworn brother! Aren't you at ease about handing over the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to him? Ignoring Yelu Hongji's mocking eyes, Liu Hong said something that made the faces of everyone present change greatly.
"How can this be!" Xiao Feng was the first to push, he felt that he had betrayed Yelu Hongji now, how could he have the face to accept Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures? Moreover, the importance of the sixteen states of Yanyun, he, who has been fighting against Liao for more than 30 years, does not know where he will be!
"Hmm! That's good! ”
"Yes! That's good! ”
But Xiao Feng disagreed! After listening to it, other Jianghu people thought it was a good suggestion!
Because Xiao Feng is not just a Khitan, he also grew up in a place of Han people!
He has been fighting against Liao for more than 30 years, and he has a sense of belonging to the Han people!
"King Xiao! Borrow a step to speak! Liu Hong led with his hand, and at the same time turned his head to Zhao Zhao and said meaningfully: "I hope that Brother Zhao is optimistic about this majesty!" ”
"That's nature! I'd definitely like him! Don't let him lose a single hair! Zhao Zhao saw Liu Hong's tone and eyes, where would he not know what it meant! Coupled with his deep hatred for the Khitans, Zhao Zhao suddenly laughed.
"It's hard work!" However, Liu Hong saw that Zhao Zhao's expression was really a little crazy, and he used his internal force to transmit the voice and added: "Don't hurt him!" It's useful! ”
"Where is all this nonsense! You and Xiao Feng still have something to talk about, go quickly! Hurry up! On the surface, Zhao Zhao was still a little crazy, but his eyes were much calmer.
After making a gesture to everyone, Liu Hong took Xiao Feng to the side.
"I want to know what you're going to say!" Ah Zi's voice suddenly came, and he grabbed Xiao Feng's sleeve tightly, with tears in his eyes, and he was pitiful.
"Don't make a fuss!" Xiao Feng knew what kind of character she was, and now this expression can definitely be pretended!
"Brother Liu!" Stretching his voice, Ah Zi's eyes looked at Liu Hong.
"Huh! If you want to know what we're talking about, follow along! Liu Hong smiled and agreed! Although Liu Hong also knows that Ah Zi is pretending! But the next thing must be Ah Zi's participation! Even if Ah Zi doesn't open her mouth, Liu Hong will call her when necessary!
"This" Xiao Feng looked at Liu Hong a little distressed, he didn't know why Liu Hong agreed! However, Ah Zi smiled happily and said sweetly to Liu Hong: "Thank you, Brother Liu!" ”
"Huh!" Liu Hong pursed his lips and chuckled, then pointed to the place where they were going to talk, and then walked over first.
After Xiao Feng and Ah Zi arrived, Liu Hong straightened his clothes, then leaned over, and said in a serious tone: "Xiao Feng, now I beg you for something!" I hope you can win over the Sixteen States of Yanyun! ”
"Why?" Xiao Feng's brows furrowed deeply, and he asked suspiciously.
"Because in the first thirty years, you were Qiao Feng, the leader of the beggar gang! And now you are Xiao Feng, the king of the Southern Courtyard! Standing up, Liu Hong explained with a smile.
"That's all?" Xiao Feng's brows soothed slightly, but he still frowned.
"Isn't it enough?" The smile on Liu Hong's face became more and more intense.
"You're playing a pantomime?" Ah Zi on the side was confused when he heard it.
"Huh!" Liu Hong smiled at Ah Zi, then turned to Xiao Feng and said, "King Xiao! You listened to Ah Zhu's words, so you took good care of Ah Zi! ”
Ah Zi's face changed suddenly.
"How do you know!" Xiao Feng's face also changed, and he suddenly asked, and the voice called the eyes of the Jianghu guests not far away.
However, he didn't notice that his words made Ah Zi's face even more ugly!
What is the difference between this and admitting that he took care of Ah Zi after listening to Ah Zhu's words?
"Huh!" Liu Hong didn't answer Xiao Feng's question directly, but asked Ah Zi, "What about Ah Zi girl?" Why are you so insistent on King Xiao? ”
"I love him!" Ah Zi was unequivocal, or did not hide his love at all, and looked at Xiao Feng and replied clearly.
"Ah Zi" Xiao Feng's face showed a trace of embarrassment.
"Ask what is the situation in the world, and the straight man promises life and death!" Liu Hong smiled and recited a yuan song.
Although Xiao Feng and Ah Zi have never heard of this sentence, or must not have heard it, such a straightforward sentence makes people understand it as soon as they hear it!
"King Xiao, let me ask you, when Miss Azhu died, you had the idea of seeking death!" Liu Hong continued to ask with a smile.
"Yes!" Xiao Feng's answer didn't hesitate, or he didn't feel that he needed to hesitate!
"Ah Zi girl, let me ask you, if King Xiao dies, will you live alone?" Not looking at Xiao Feng, Liu Hong turned his face to Ah Zi, who had an ugly face, and asked.
"If Brother Xiao dies, I won't live alone!" Ah Zi's voice was crisp and sweet, but sonorous and powerful.
"Ah Zi" Xiao Feng's heart trembled, "Why are you here!" ”
Ah Zi didn't answer, just looked at Xiao Feng seriously.
"In that case, I think you two understand what I'm talking about, right? Especially King Xiao! It's time to put away the dead breath on your face! Swallowing his saliva, Liu Hong moistened his throat and spoke again, "If you die, you will lose the hearts of two beauties!" ”
Xiao Feng's face suddenly changed. After Liu Hong said this, Xiao Feng immediately understood his situation, he was never stupid, these things were just a mystery of the authorities. If you can't think of it after asking someone to mention it, then will he still be Xiao Feng?
"Thanks for mentioning it!" Sighing, Xiao Feng hugged his fist at Liu Hong, and thanked him seriously, "If it weren't for Your Excellency's guidance, I'm afraid I've done something irreparable!" ”
"Hehe, don't dare to be!" Liu Hong stepped forward to pull up Xiao Feng, and then continued: "The private matter you are waiting for is over, now let's talk about the affairs of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures!" ”
"Since the Later Jin Emperor Shi Jingjiao transferred the goods of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures to the Liao State, and now the people of the Great Song Dynasty can be said to be terrified all the time. Without the Great Wall and horse farms, the Han people are brave and cannot compete with the Khitan, so they can only be trapped! And if the Khitans are willing, they can ride the Central Plains! If you think you've seen a lot of things about Grass Valley! ”
Xiao Feng nodded, not only the Khitan people fighting the Song people in the grass valley, but the Song people fighting the Khitan people in the grass valley he had also seen!
Seeing Xiao Feng nodding, Liu Hong continued, "Hehe! Now that you know about Grass Valley, you understand the seriousness of this matter, right? You're going to rob me today! I'll rob you tomorrow! Kill me so far! I'll kill you tomorrow! The hatred between the Khitan and the Great Song Dynasty is getting deeper and deeper, and it is difficult to return! And although you are a Khitan, but you grew up in the Song Kingdom, which of these two parties is injured makes you uncomfortable! ”
Xiao Feng continued to nod.
"You are pro-Song, so if the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are in your hands, you can make both countries restrain themselves! Because the biggest deal between the two countries is the sixteen states of Yanyun! Whether it's horses or grass! A place to make a difference! ”
"So and so is not a traitor!" After listening to Liu Hong's speech, Xiao Feng's brows began to wrinkle again.
"I don't need you to sell many horses to Da Song! These things are not for you to decide! I just need you to show your pro-Song attitude in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun! "If you want Xiao Feng to sell horses to the Great Song Dynasty in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, it is tantamount to wishful thinking!
Even if he wants to sell! But those Khitan nobles and the wealthy families of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun will not be willing either! There is a deep stake in this!
"It doesn't make a difference!" After listening to Liu Hong's words, Xiao Feng's brows couldn't be loosened at all!
"You are the brother of the opposite sex of Jeluhongki! He is the opposite sex brother of the Khitan Emperor! Liu Hong looked at Xiao Feng seriously and said his current identity.
"But"
"Nothing! If you don't want to, you're not the only one to die! King Xiao! Seeing that Xiao Feng was still grinding and chirping, Liu Hong suddenly became angry, pointed to the people not far away and said, "Yelu Hongji is here!" Your sworn brother Duan Yu is here! Miss Zi is here! And those beggar gang disciples and heroes are here! ”
Xiao Feng listened to Liu Hong's words, looked in the direction Liu Hong pointed, and was speechless for a while.
"What are you waiting for?" Liu Hong continued: "If you agree, then Song and Liao may have a chance to cease war!" If you don't agree, then Song and Liao will definitely fight to the end! ”
"Enough! Don't push Brother Xiao anymore! Ah Zi saw the changing look on Xiao Feng's face on the side, and his heart ached.
"I agree! I will ask Your Majesty for your life! Xiao Feng's voice was hoarse and haggard, which showed how many twists and turns his heart had gone through.
"Then let's go back!" Liu Hong didn't look at Xiao Feng's expression, but turned around and walked directly towards everyone: "This matter will end early, and you can also find a place to think about it early." ”
Back in the crowd, Liu Hong saw Zhao Zhao dancing with a knife next to Yelu Hongji, but as he said, although the knives were very close to Yelu Hongji, they didn't hurt Yelu Hongji at all, but the sound was very loud!
If Yelu Hongji closed his eyes, Zhao Zhao would dance a few more times in his ear! If Yelu Hongji opened his eyes, Zhao Zhao would dance a few more times in front of his eyes! Make Yelu Hongji miserable!
"How?" Stopping Zhao Zhao, Liu Hong asked Yelu Hongji with a smile.
"Not good!" Seeing Liu Hong, Yelu Hongji's eyes were afraid that they were about to burst into flames! The embarrassment he was just now was all caused by Liu Hong!
"Your Majesty, please think twice!" Liu Hong just smiled and didn't say anything more.
"Minister, please" But before Xiao Feng finished speaking, Liu Hong patted him on the shoulder and said, "You can talk about these things when you go back!" Now as long as Your Majesty raises your noble hand, spares my life, and retires from the army! Your Majesty may allow it? ”
Yes, now as long as Yelu Hongji retreats! The affairs of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun are not something that can be talked about here! If we talk about it here, I'm afraid that Yelu Hongji will be repaid when he returns to the army!
"As long as you let me go! Naturally, I would have given the order to withdraw the troops! Yeluhongji's face straightened slightly.
"Please!" Liu Hong raised his hand and signaled that Yelu Hongji could leave! Then he said to Xiao Feng: "King Xiao will also accompany you back!" ”
"Farewell!" Xiao Feng did not hesitate, stepped forward to support Yelu Hongji, who was a little frightened by Zhao Zhao, and walked towards the army together.
Yelu Hongji struggled a few times, and found that he couldn't get rid of it, so he gave up, but his face was a little unsightly.
"Miss Ah Zi will stay first! Let's go after King Xiao has nothing to do! Liu Hong clicked on Ah Zi's acupoint, and then said with a chuckle.
"You dare!" Ah Zi suddenly stared at him.
"Ah Zi, you better stay in Da Song first!" Seeing that Ah Zi was pointed at by Liu Hong, Xiao Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Xiao!" Ah Zi's tears suddenly burst out.
