Under Ye Pei's management, the Liao State of Nanjing Xijin Prefecture became increasingly prosperous, relying on the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to carry out trade with the Song State, and the economy prospered.

The military power of the camp in the south of the city is firmly in the hands of Ye Pei, the princess of Nanping, to ensure the safety of the party, the political situation is stable, and the people live happily and happily.

Ye Pei followed the example of the Song Dynasty to open the imperial examination, conduct martial arts, and select civilian talents. The original system of superior superiority of the royal family and descendants, and different punishments for the same crime, has been abolished, and everyone is equal and enjoys equal rights and obligations.

The surrounding Han Chinese, Khitans, Xi people, Bohai people, and Uighurs...... Multi-ethnic integration and coexistence and equal treatment.

Ye Pei also set up a school to teach Han Confucianism and Khitan history, so that the poor could also receive education, and also set up a government-run martial arts hall, a medical hall and so on.

Talents from all over the world gathered in Xijin Mansion to jointly build Nanjing City, making the entire southern Liaoning region prosperous and happy.

As soon as Xiao Yiyi was over fifteen years old, those who came to Nanping Wangfu to seek relatives were about to break through the threshold.

Yelu De'an, the son of the king of Bei'an, Yelu Yingao, the nephew of the great Tiyin Yelu Chu, who managed the affairs of the clan, and Yelu Chelie, the son of Yelu Lunu, the son of the Nanyuan Yili Sumire, all flocked to him.

They not only rely on the coercion and temptation of their family forces, but also in various horse races, moon-gazing conferences or four seasons bowls, these clan children are extremely flattering, and circle around Xiao Yiyi.

Ye Pei and Yiyi talked about her family affairs, Ye Pei wanted to follow Xiao Yiyi's own wishes, but Xiao Yiyi always refused to talk about it for various reasons.

In fact, Ye Pei can understand that as a stepmother, Ye Pei still failed to fully enter the child's heart. Although Xiao Yiyi didn't appreciate it, Ye Pei couldn't help but plan for the child.

Xiao Yiyi's marriage is indeed a major event in a girl's life, and it is also a major event in Nanping Palace, Ye Pei must consider it carefully.

Later, by chance, Ye Pei found that Xiao Yiyi didn't want to marry those royal and noble children, but that she already had a sweetheart.

This person is the Yiwei Dutong Husi in the camp in Nancheng.

Ye Pei knew that Hu Si was a typical Khitan man, tall, burly and delicate, with a bit of Xiao Shinan's demeanor.

Although Hu Si was born in the Khitan clan, his family was well-off, and he also studied and practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he was both civil and military. But compared with the royal family and the descendants, there is a world of difference.

In the clan thinking of the Great Khitan Kingdom, birth and bloodline are highly valued. The Yelu clan of the royal family only intermarried with the Xiao clan of the descendants, and vice versa, so if Xiao Yiyi wants to marry Hu Si, it is more than ascending.

Ye Pei does not have the strong clan thinking of the Liao people, and she feels that if she can, Hu Si is not a good intermarriage partner.

She originally wanted to let the two children develop and see, who knew that Da Yiyin Yelu Chu not only relied on the identity of the patriarch of the royal family, but also used the excuse that Xiao Shinan, the king of Nanping, died early, and Xiao Yiyi's marriage could not be controlled by her stepmother Ye Pei, and forcibly let her nephew Yelu Yingao's mother, Xiao Sibi, the wife of the Jin Kingdom, come to the Nanping palace with a dowry, and the name is to be decided by the clan.

Xiao Yiyi stopped doing it when she heard it, and almost beat the little guys who carried the dowry out on the spot.

Ye Pei stopped Xiao Yiyi and said to her, "Don't be reckless, let's have to find a way, we can't go head-to-head with the royal family."

Xiao Yiyi didn't do anything.

Xiao Sibi, the wife of the Jin Kingdom, is a member of the Xi Six tribes, and her ancestors are close to King Xi, and she can also be regarded as a royal noble.

It's a pity that her husband died early and the family business collapsed, and now she can only support the family business with her uncle's great Yinyeluchu.

Xiao Sibi was good at calculation, thinking that if he married the Nanping Palace, there was also the possibility of reviving the family, so he was very concerned about this matter.

Xiao Sibi rushed from Zhongjing Dading Mansion to Nanjing Xijin Mansion, and entered Nanping Wangfu without seeing Ye Pei, but went straight to the courtyard of the old lady Yelu Qingshou in the backyard.

She thought that with the help of the in-laws of the Xiao family and the Yelu family, the eldest princess Yelu would give her face no matter what. than the Han women who came from the Song Dynasty, they felt more sorry for her, and they felt sorry for her son Yelu Yingao.

The birthday girl was reading the words handed down by the Song Dynasty in the flower hall, looking leisurely and complacent.

Xiao Sibi presented the Night Pearl and Dongzhu jewelry he brought, and curtched his knees and hugged his shoulders and said, "Eldest Princess, Sibi is here for you!"

The birthday girl squinted her eyes and looked at Xiao Sibi, and smiled heartily, "Sibi! How do you have time to come to me, old woman? How are your parents? How is your son?"

Xiao Sibi smiled flatteringly, "They're all fine! But I can't compare to the blessing of you, eldest princess!"

Xiao Sibi continued: "Old birthday star, look at how blessed you are, your grandsons have become princes, and your granddaughter Yiyi is also around your knees, you are healthy and long-lived, you are the most blessed person I have ever met!"

The birthday girl smiled, "I haven't seen you for a few years, but you are really getting better and better at talking."

Xiao Sibi said again: "Old birthday star, look at the night pearl I brought to you, this is the treasure of our Xi family, I married into the Yelu family and brought it here. When you put it in the bedroom at night, the soft light is like the bright moon, and it is not like the dazzling candle flame, it seems that the tent is luxurious and comfortable, and it is suitable for you."

"There is a proverb in the Song Kingdom: "If you have nothing to do, you will not go to the Three Treasures Palace", Si Bi, you must have something to ask me for such an old bone, right?" The birthday girl is a shrewd old man who doesn't rub sand in her eyes.

Xiao Sibi grinned and said, "Old birthday star, look at what you said. I'm here for a happy event! Da Yi Yinchu not only set the relationship between our two families, my son Yingao wants to marry us as his wife! Do you think this is a great event?"

The eldest princess Yelu celebrated her birthday after listening to Xiao Sibi's request, and said with a smile: "Yingao is a good boy, but according to this marriage, I can't be the master, and now my daughter-in-law is in charge of the affairs of Nanping Palace, and you still have to discuss it with her!"

"Does she dare to disobey the words of the Great Hidden Thing? And that's not a bad thing."

"The rules of the Song Kingdom are different from our Khitan, she is the princess of the Song Kingdom, and she has her own ideas, but she can't affect the relationship between the two countries because of a little thing." As she spoke, the birthday girl squinted her eyes and looked like she was not in good spirits.

Xiao Sibi touched a soft nail, and scolded the birthday girl in his heart for being an old fox, but he sweetly told the eldest prince to take care of his body and live a long life.

In the end, Xiao Sibi had no choice but to go to Ye Pei in a daze.

Ye Pei warmly received Xiao Sibi, and to Xiao Sibi's surprise, Ye Pei did not refuse this marriage, and he still looked happy.

"Lady of the Jin Kingdom! Since I married into Liao, I haven't made a descendant like Mrs. You, it's a pity. When I saw you today, I felt that you were not only virtuous and beautiful, but also shrewd and capable, and a good family!"

Xiao Sibi was so praised by Ye Pei that he didn't know what to say, and said in his heart: "People say that the princess of the Song Kingdom is not easy to deal with, and when I see it today, all the rumors are false!" He also said, "People who don't know the concubine think that you are not easy to get along with, but you are so beautiful, generous, and amiable!"

Ye Pei smiled but said meaningfully, "If you want to know the truth of a thing, you must go and see it in person, don't you say? If Mrs. Jin Guo doesn't dislike it, I want Yingao Langjun to come to Nanjing to play for a few days, so that he and Yiyi can cultivate a relationship."

Xiao Sibi was overjoyed and promised: "So good, so good!"

After Xiao Sibi left, Xiao Yiyi came to Ye Pei and said unhappily, "Mother really wants to use my marriage to make friends with the royal family?"

Ye Pei said disdainfully: "The lord chooses a concubine, you are actually within the scope of the show girl, I can still refuse for you, why should I go to Gao Pan for a Yelu Yingao?"

Xiao Yiyi asked, "Then why did you let him come to Xijin Mansion?"

"In order for you to meet other men other than Husi!" Ye Pei laughed out loud.

When Xiao Yiyi heard this, her face immediately turned red, "Mother, you even know everything!"

Ye Pei said to Xiao Yiyi: "The Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi has a poem: The jade test must be burned for three days, and the material must be judged for seven years. How can you judge a person's nature if you don't see them as they really are?"

Xiao Yiyi asked puzzledly, "What does the concubine want to do?"

Ye Pei stroked Xiao Yiyi's sideburns with his hand, and said lovingly, "I want to marry you to a man who can be relied on like your father!"

------

Ye Pei ordered people to prepare the dowry with great fanfare, and the Nanping Palace's lanterns were decorated with lights, creating a joyful atmosphere. On the one hand, he secretly went to Bianliang City and spent a lot of money to invite the celebrity geisha Hua Siniang to Xijin Mansion.

The news soon spread to the camp in the south of the city, and after Hu Si heard that Xiao Yiyi was going to marry Yelu Yingao, he really couldn't bear it, and secretly came to meet Xiao Yiyi late at night, wanting to know where her mind was.

As a result, as soon as Hu Si entered the Nanping Palace, Ye Pei got the news and gave him an urn to catch a turtle and directly arrest Hu Si.

When Hu Si was taken to Ye Pei's courtyard, Ye Pei was sitting on a chair in the Huya Hall enjoying singing and dancing. Seeing that two cronies were coming with Hu Si tied up, Ye Pei ordered someone to remove the rope on his body, and ordered him to stand down and watch Hua Siniang dance.

I saw Hua Siniang singing and dancing lightly, the water sleeves fluttering, like a fairy descending to earth, and the eyebrows and eyes were extremely charming. This posture and dance are all stunning heavenly fragrance that the Khitan Kingdom has never had.

Hu Si's eyes only looked at the ground in front of him, and he didn't have the heart to enjoy the song and dance.

When the song was over, Ye Pei ordered Hua Siniang and others to stand on both sides, and then looked at Hu Si faintly.

Hu Si immediately bowed down and saluted: "The last general, Yi Weidu, has seen General Ye."

Ye Pei asked slowly, "What did Hu Si Dutong do when he came to my Nanping Mansion late at night?"

"This ......" Seeing that his behavior was recognized, Hu Si simply admitted, "General Qiqi Ye, the last general is here to ask for a kiss."

"Marriage?" Ye Pei pretended not to know.

"Yes! General Ye, I want to ask to marry the county lord of Yiyi!" Hu Si knelt on one knee and said earnestly.

"Smack!" Ye Pei slapped the table, "Bold Tiger Thought, what kind of identity do you have, dare to say such nonsense?"

Ye Pei's reaction was expected by Hu Si, he knelt on his knees instead, and said firmly: "General Ye, I respect you as a great general, who has led our Chengnan battalion to peace and stability in the past two years, and has also brought Nanjing City to a more prosperous and developing situation.

In our vast prairie, a man and a woman can swear to immortality and marry as long as they are in love. I love each other with all sincerity, and I ask you to agree to our marriage and bless us in the future."

Ye Pei sneered, "Bless your future? You don't have much military merit on you, so how can you talk about the future? Although I am a princess married to the Song Kingdom, I also know that the Xiao family of the Liao Kingdom has always only intermarried with the Yelu clan, and the county lord of Qinghe has a noble status, how can I marry you, a hairy boy?"

Hu Si was unconvinced and said, "Could it be that you also have such a strong clan mentality? I think that the Empress Dowager Chengtian had a marriage contract with the Han Han family before she got married, so why can't the Xiao family marry a Khitan man?"

"But the Empress Dowager Chengtian finally married Emperor Jingzong!" Ye Pei glared at Hu Sidao. "If Xiao Yiyi is just an ordinary Khitan woman, I have no objection to her marrying you.

It's a pity that she is the county lord of Nanping Palace, she was born with golden branches and jade leaves, and she has never suffered a little. Do you want her to be like a peasant woman in the future, and to live her whole life doing nothing in trivial household matters?"

"This ......" Hu Si didn't think about these many questions, he was still too young, just simply with enthusiasm, desperately hoping to be with Xiao Yiyi.

Seeing that Hu Si was speechless, Ye Pei continued, "Don't make any promises lightly until you have the ability to protect your beloved woman! Hu Si, you are a good man, I might as well tell you clearly, now that the marriage of the county lord has been decided, you should not covet it anymore. I promoted you to be the general commander of Yiwei, and in the future, you will make meritorious contributions and marry a good family, okay?"

Hu Si immediately became disgusted, "No, I won't give up Yiyi for the sake of my official position."

"And what about the money for the jewels?" Ye Pei pointed with his hand, and her personal maid Ji Ah Xing, holding a small box of jewelry, gold and silver, was already standing in front of Hu Si.

Hu Si was silent, but his neck was stalked, as if he had suffered a great humiliation.

Ye Pei continued, "Wouldn't it be better for me to marry her to you?" As he spoke, Ye Pei pointed at Hua Siniang.

Hua Siniang saluted Hu Siweifu.

Hu Si tilted his head and said with a backbone: "Even if General Ye does not agree to marry the Yiyi County Lord to me, don't insult my personality!"

Ye Pei said disdainfully, "I want to see how strong your love for the county lord is!" As she spoke, she turned her head to the guards who were standing under Hu Si and ordered, "Hu Si trespassed into the Nanping Palace, intending to damage the reputation of the Qinghe County Lord, and dragged it down to fight a hundred kills!"

The two pro-soldiers immediately stepped forward, dragged Hu Si and walked down the hall.

This killing stick is different from the military stick, which will beat people to the skin, but this killing stick will not have many external injuries, but it will make you bruised and swollen all over your body, unable to sit or lie down, and it is also a very painful punishment.

Hu Si was tied to a big tree outside the Huya Hall for execution, he was also a tough guy, and he didn't even snort when he was beaten with a hundred kills.

dragged it up again, and Husi was already angry.

Ye Pei asked again, "You still insist on marrying the county lord of Qinghe?"

Hu Si gritted his teeth and glared at Ye Pei without saying a word.

Ye Pei ordered again: "Escort Hu Si into the dungeon, don't give him food, keep the news tightly sealed, and don't let the county lord know!"

In this way, a tough guy Hu Si was imprisoned in the dungeon of Nanping Palace, and his injuries combined with hunger and thirst almost cost him his life.
