The Emperor returns.

Although Emperor Yelu Hongji of Liao did not regain face outside and was beaten by the Song army, when he returned to the capital, he was still the Emperor of Liao.

The emperor is driving, and the flag and honor guard must be prepared.

After Yelu Hongji left the city, Yelu Yanxi, the imperial grandson of King Yan, naturally became the prison of the Great Liao Capital. And after the return of Emperor Yelu Hongji, his status as a prisoner of the state was immediately lost and he became the grandson of the emperor.

There's no way around it.

One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, and one country does not exist for two days.

There can only be one emperor in a country, this is an eternal truth.

However, when Yelu Yanxi came to the outside of the city with hundreds of civil and military officials to prepare to meet the emperor Yelu Hongji, not only did he not see Yelu Hongji, but found that the leather room army escorting the emperor turned a corner, and then led the soldiers and horses towards the north.

This scene made Yelu Yanxi puzzled, and he was still wondering, would the emperor's grandfather be embarrassed to see him after losing the battle?

Or is there something else going on?

"Yan Fifteen!"

"The minions are here!"

"You go up and contact the people around the emperor's grandfather, and you must find out why the army doesn't enter the city?"

"Minions understand!"

Yelu Yanxi was immersed in speculation all day, what happened to make the emperor's grandfather not enter the Xijin Mansion? Is it shame? Or is there something else going on?

That night, the people he sent came back, and as soon as they met, they said with an anxious face: "Your Highness, the emperor may not be able to do it!" ”

"Bastard, can you criticize the emperor too?"

But then Yelu Yanxi opened his mouth, was surprised, and after retreating left and right, he asked in a low voice: "And tell Gu the news you heard as it is." ”

"My people entered the leather room army at an early age, with the army governor's mansion, and by His Majesty's side. But when I caught up with the army, I found that the army was tight inside and loose outside, and the royal tent was not close to each other at all. I finally found out the news, and I knew that His Majesty saw that the south gate was missing outside the city of Xijin Mansion......"

"Speak quickly!"

Yelu Yanxi asked eagerly, all of them were on the verge of this, and they were still selling off.

He also seemed to feel a hint of conspiracy.

Only then did Yan 15 say: "Your Majesty was so frightened that he fell out of the car after seeing the city gate disappear. After that, he was directly ordered to go north to Zhongjing. There was not even a pause. But when the servants came to the camp, they did not see His Majesty. It was not easy to wait until the army arrived in Shunzhou to repair and get the news. His Majesty has not shown his face since he fell from the car, and the slave suspects that the emperor ...... The orders to go to Zhongjing were all given by Xiao Changge, the head of the camp, and the other minions were unknown. ”

This time, Yelu Yanxi did not reprimand his subordinates. Instead, they fell silent.

For a long time, Yelu Yanxi hunched her back as if she had been framed, her eyes burst out with hatred and anger, and she cursed in a low voice: "Brother Xiao Chang, you can't share the sky with you!" ”

"Your Highness, you have to make plans early!"

"Where's the King of the Southern Courtyard?"

"The king, after His Majesty, blocked the Song army for His Majesty. I'm afraid ......"

Hearing this, even Yelu Yanxi felt that Yelu Chen's slaves were most likely vicious and unlucky, and the emperor ran away, so it indicated that the leather room army was defeated, and in the face of Li Kui, who was rampaging like a blind bear, where was his opponent?

If you can't beat it, you may be dragged back.

Naturally, there is more luck and less luck.

Just when Yelu Yanxi was a pity for the king of the Southern Courtyard, another rout came from outside the city. Compared with the soldiers and horses who followed the emperor Yeluhong's base, the soldiers and horses outside the city that appeared this time were not as strange as before, and they didn't even enter the city because the south city gate was gone. After turning to the west gate, Yelu Chen's slave reported his identity and asked people to open the city gate.

To his surprise, the moment the city gate opened, it was the imperial grandson Yelu Yanxi standing behind the city gate.

Seeing this, Yelu Chen Jianu immediately jumped off the horse, although he was the king of the Southern Courtyard, but when he met the prince of Da Liao, he still had to be a head shorter.

"Chenye Lu Chen Jianu has seen His Highness."

"You all disperse, the king of the southern courtyard doesn't have to be polite, if you have something to ask the king, is it convenient?"

"Convenient, convenient!"

The two chose to be on the city tower, and Yelu Yanxi urgently needed a person with sufficient status to give him a detailed reference. In addition, in a sense, his demands are almost the same as those of Yelu Chen's slaves.

When Yelu Yanxi finished telling what he knew, Yelu Chen's slave stood up in surprise, walked around the tower, and muttered, "Something is wrong, something is wrong." ”

"The king also has this suspicion?"

Yelu Chen Jianu looked up at the imperial grandson, and he felt as if the imperial grandson had changed and become strange.

At this moment, the servants of the Yelu Chen family were alert, as if they had touched something that should not be touched. It's not entirely like this, but for Da Liao, the battle for succession has always been suppressed by Yelu Hongji.

From the Prince.

to the imperial grandson.

Da Liao has never had the problem of seizing the heir, after all, although Yelu Hongji has a problem of great success, but he has been the emperor for more than 40 years, what kind of battle has he not seen?

It is precisely because of the well-informed that we will not lose our minds. Arrange the prince from the preference. There is no doubt that the crown prince must be a rightful prince, and after the death of the prince, the identity of the emperor's grandson is also reasonable.

But now that the emperor Yelu Hongji has not shown up, and the emperor's personal army escorted the emperor to Zhongjing with his personal guards, what does Yelu Yanxi, who is a prince, think?

Yelu Hongji was kidnapped?

If the emperor was sober, how could he be hijacked?

If an elderly person over the age of seventy falls out of the car, if he is unlucky......

Even Yelu Chen's slave didn't dare to continue thinking about it, he and Yelu Yanxi, the king of Yan, were people on the same position, at least they were both clansmen. And Brother Xiao Chang is a descendant.

Although the Liao State is dominated by the Yelu family and the descendant Xiao family, if the emperor Yelu Hongji has an accident and dies in the army, then Xiao Changge, as a son of the Xiao family, will inevitably take advantage of this excellent opportunity. It may even issue a fake edict to completely exclone the imperial grandson Yelu Yanxi from the heir, and support a puppet who poses no threat to the Xiao family.

If he really wants to come to this point, Yelu Yanxi, the imperial grandson, is just watching the excitement, and in the end he still cheapens the other brothers, and maybe even his nephew. Of course, the latter may not be big, and the Xiao family also has to consider the reaction of the clan.

As for why it's not the clan of the uncles?

He couldn't think of anything that Shaw would do. After all, Yelu Yanxi's uncles are not young, and it may not be easy for the Xiao family to control them.

For a prince, growth may be in a thought.

Or it has experienced a major event, and the battle of inheriting the unification is the most important and the one that can inspire the growth of the prince.

Jump over, from now on the sea and sky, carp into dragon.

If you can't jump, you will definitely end up dead.

But all the princes have no way out in front of this step.

If they give up the position of unification, they will also face the desperate situation of death.

At this moment, Yelu Yanxi didn't delay any longer, held the hilt of the sword at his waist, took a step forward and forced Yelu Chen's slave, and said with a gloomy face: "Please also ask the king to help me!" ”

When Yelu Chen Jianu saw the scene of the emperor's grandson, what else did he not understand, he was surprised that Yelu Yanxi was gentle and elegant on weekdays, but now he was killing like a beast out of the cage. sighed in his heart: "That's it, I can't escape this matter myself." ”

Simply, he knelt on one knee and said to Yelu Yanxi: "The slave of the Yelu Chen family is willing to be driven by His Highness." ”

After speaking, he seemed to sense that something was wrong, and added: "Your Majesty! ”

The corners of Yelu Yanxi's mouth rose slightly, but unfortunately he did not ascend the throne, he will always be the king of Yan, not the emperor of Daliao.

The excitement in the heart of Yelu Yanxi ninja lifted Yelu Chen, the king of the Southern Courtyard, with one hand and said: "Your Majesty doesn't know whether you are alive or dead, I am waiting for this trip to rescue Your Majesty and comfort you, and prevent thieves with ulterior motives from holding Your Majesty hostage and causing chaos in Daliao." On this trip, Lone still needs to be taken care of by the king. ”

After confirming the identity of the courtier, Yelu Chen's slave did not hide it, and immediately suggested Yelu Yanxi: "What His Highness said is very true, and the minister immediately went to rectify the soldiers and horses." I don't know ......."

Yelu Chen's slave knew that there were a lot of soldiers and horses in Xijin Mansion, and to quell the rebellion in the palace, I am afraid that these defeated soldiers in his hands alone would not be able to do it.

Yelu Yanxi thought about it, and simply gritted his teeth and said: "There are 40,000 soldiers and horses in the city, bring them all." ”

For the throne, 40,000 soldiers and horses may not be enough.

But this is also a helpless thing, who let him be plagued by Li Kui with 20,000 elites.

In the middle of the night, Han Zirang was pulled to the palace for unknown reasons, and he was stunned when he first came.

He was actually appointed by the imperial grandson as the left-behind governor of Xijin Mansion, although this official position is temporary, but usually the king of the southern courtyard concurrently, as his doubts increased, Yelu Chen Jianu immediately spoke: "Brother Xiao Chang, the head of the camp, took His Majesty hostage and went to Zhongjing, and His Royal Highness the King and King Yan decided to lead troops to Zhongjing in order to puncture the ambition of the thief. You are left to take care of the treasury and palace of this Xijin Mansion......"

Han Zirang swallowed his saliva carefully, he also wanted to go to Zhongjing, if he stayed in Xijin Mansion, he was afraid that he would be an unlucky person who would die for him.

But he didn't dare to say this, if he showed any signs of dissent at this time, he was sure that the next moment Yelu Chen Jianu would definitely pull out his knife and hack him to death!

What's the use of a disobedient subordinate coming?

Han Zirang bowed his head and obeyed: "The minister's order." ”

However, after speaking, he still nervously asked Yelu Yanxi: "How many soldiers and horses is Your Highness going to bring, and the ministers are well prepared." ”

"Forty thousand!"

This is all the strength of the Great Liao army in the city, and it cannot be said that it is all, the total number is more than 40,000. But those soldiers were either improvised conscripts or wounded, and the total strength was probably about 3,000.

Can 3,000 people hold the Tsujin Mansion?

I'm afraid it's not ordinary!

Han Zirang wanted Yelu Yanxi to leave more troops, but he thought that Yelu Yanxi went to Zhongjing to seize the throne, not to mention 40,000, 100,000 soldiers and horses were not much.

If it weren't for the fact that the Xijin Mansion really couldn't rectify 100,000 soldiers and horses, Yelu Yanxi really wanted to return to Zhongjing with an army of 100,000.

He had already expected that his imperial grandfather might be unconscious. Otherwise, the emperor's pro-army would not have been able to call the shots by Brother Xiao Chang.

Let's talk about Song Jun.

After receiving the order, Ren Duo Baozhong rushed to Qingheyuan with a large army full of doubts, and the moment he saw the corpses of the Liao army everywhere on the battlefield, he believed that Li Kui really used 20,000 soldiers and horses to break the Liao Emperor's 70,000 army. This is not an ordinary elite, but the personal guard of the emperor of Liao.

At this moment, Renduo Baozhong was also in a cold sweat, he was playing against Li Kui in Jinmingzhai.

If Liang Yishu hadn't seized power at the beginning, he would not have lost the command of the commander of the army. If the result remains the same, it is likely that Liang Yishu's unlucky experience will fall on him.

He is not the Liang family, if he really loses 50,000 troops, he and the Renduo tribe may be swallowed by the Liang family before they take refuge in the Great Song Dynasty.

"Li Dashuai!"

The moment Renduo Baozhong saw Li Kui, his expression was a little unnatural. But his attitude was not respectful, as if his modest position was fake.

The military general of the Song Army, the Jiedu envoy is already the official position at the top of the second order, and then he is the highest hussar general.

Even in the military, civilian officials need to be courteous to military generals who have the official position of temperance envoys.

However, Li Kui is not an ordinary civil official, he did not pretend to be polite because of Renduo's respectfulness, but directly said to Renduo Baozhong: "How many people did you bring?" ”

"Twenty thousand horses."

Ren Duo Baozhong accompanied him and said carefully: "What is the dispatch of Li Dashuai?" ”

"Your troops immediately reorganize the troops and horses, and the troops will arrive in Jinfu within two days. I then came with a large army. "After this great battle, the Praetorian Guard and the Fei Lian Army need a short rest. It's understandable to start slower.

Although Nito Hotada was skeptical, he agreed.

Li Kui didn't explain to him the meaning of doing this, he just found out that something was wrong with the Liao army through the scouts.

After a big battle, Emperor Liao's face was trampled on the ground by him, but the surrounding cities such as Yuyang did not have King Qin's army out of the city, but there seemed to be soldiers and horses in Xijin Mansion going north.

Could it be that after Emperor Liao couldn't beat Li Kui, he chose to flee and didn't even want the capital?

Li Kui felt that it was not enough, he suspected that there was something he did not know, which caused the situation to be different from what he guessed.

And the appearance of 20,000 cavalry of Rindo Baozhong in Xijin Province is the best means of temptation.

After all, Renduo's loyal soldiers and horses are all cavalry, and even if they can't defeat the Liao army, they can escape. As for the Praetorian Guards and the Fei Lian Army, they lost more than three layers in this battle and were no longer able to pursue.

The cavalry, in particular, lost half.

Although there is no shortage of war horses and weapons, almost all the soldiers are wounded and continue to be put into the battlefield, and the old bottom of the Feilian Army will be exhausted.

To Li Kui's surprise, three days later, he arrived outside the city of Xijin Mansion with his army, and it was not Renduo Baozhong who greeted him, but Han Zirang.

Since being this unlucky left-behind manager, Han Zirang can't eat well and can't sleep.

On the contrary, after Song Jun came, he finally let go of the heart he was carrying.

Li Kui's prestige made the Liao officials in the city of Xijin Mansion dare not resist at all, and when Han Zirang proposed to recruit the slaves of each family, the scene of Li Kui slaughtering the Liao army outside the city made all the magnates in the city shudder.

In order to settle for the second, when the Korean capital made a proposal to dedicate the city, there were few objections.

So, Han Zirang took the account books of the palace treasury and led the Liao magnates who stayed in Xijin Mansion out of the city gate, knelt down in front of Li Kui's horse, and said respectfully: "The criminal minister Han Zirang, welcome the Great Song Heavenly Soldiers!" ”
