In this courtyard, there is a large pool, which is full of mist and colorful light, and there are many strange species on the edge of the pool, which grow vigorously.

The fish in the pond are free, swimming around, turning their bodies from time to time, poking out of the water, and their mouths are open and closed, which looks very pleasant.

"Who is this kid? When Yelu Kuan saw Shang Yin, he only felt a little unpleasant.

"Whoever he is, we'll find out later. Yelumu didn't think so, originally he felt that Yelubao was still a threat to him, but after this period of time, the little prince's performance was too woman-like, and he was afraid that Empress Dowager Xiao would not want to make him the future lord of Liao.

There is a woman, in the corridor pavilion on the edge of the pond to enjoy the fish, she is dressed in white, black hair like a waterfall, but there is a mighty majesty between the eyebrows, this is a kind of countless life and death ups and downs sharpened, the breath on her body, Shang Yin just looked, only saw Jin Ge Iron Horse, after the stormy waves calmed down, can have the temperament.

"Xiao Mu, Xiao Kuan, why are you two here, just tell me if you have anything first!" The woman is none other than the current Empress Dowager Xiao of the Liao Kingdom.

"I heard that grandma sent the Green Eagle Army to slaughter horse thieves in the border region, and we are here to dissuade them. Yelumu hurriedly said.

Shang Yin frowned slightly, it is a good thing for the people of the two countries to eliminate the horse thieves, and there will be someone at the top of the royal family to dissuade such a thing, and said in his heart: "Isn't it related to that map?"

"Oh, what do you say?" Empress Dowager Xiao glanced at Shang Yin and saw that he was indifferent.

"The head of the thirteen thieves is willing to pay one million lower grade immortal jade, hoping that grandma will calm down her anger, and that the Blue Eagle Army can withdraw immediately. At this time, Jerukuan saluted.

"Xiaobao, what do you think?" Empress Dowager Xiao looked at Yelubao and said calmly.

"I think that the current eradication of horse thieves is not enough to shake their roots, and they can continue, compared to a million low-grade immortal jade, the prestige of my Liao royal family in the hearts of the people in the border region is more important. Jerubao said solemnly.

"These horse thieves have lost more than 300,000 people, if they continue to be cleared, the entire trade route between the Liao State and the Xia State will be clean, and the most important thing is that our cooperation with the Thirteen Great Thieves will be affected. Jerumu said in a deep voice.

"Little Immortal Master, what do you think?" Empress Dowager Xiao looked at Shang Yin with a gentle smile.

"I think the little prince is right, although the number of horse thieves has been reduced now, but it has not hurt the muscles and bones at all, I am afraid that their base camp still has more than 100,000 elite horse thieves in the spirit realm, these foundations are not damaged, as long as the wind passes, they will send thousands of people to each den, and they can recruit troops and horses, and make a comeback, it is extremely unfavorable to the people of Xia and Liao, and they should continue to patrol and kill, so that they know that the people of Liao are not to be bullied. Shang Yin said solemnly: "That million catties of low-grade immortal jade should be tired from the heads of the people of the two countries, I am afraid that it is the Liao State and it is unlucky." ”

"Boy, what nonsense are you talking about?" said Jerrykuan, angrily.

Obviously, the thirteen thieves found Yelumu, the great prince of Liao, through some connections, hoping that they could stop the slaughter, and he had already accepted half of this money as a deposit.

"Grandma, the Green Eagle Army has been dispatched to kill a lot of horse thieves, this breath is also out, if it continues, I am afraid that it will affect the exploration of the Mobei ore vein, we still need these horse thieves, after all, those places are too weird, if we really clean them up, there will be no one to work for us." Yelukuan said solemnly: "Xiaobao doesn't know the pass, the stakes, if it really provokes the thirteen thieves, they want to retaliate, we are not very comfortable, and every year we will lose more inferior immortal jade." ”

"What Mobei ore vein?" Shang Yin frowned slightly, it seemed that the thirteen thieves were able to take root in the depths of this land, and they obviously had some secrets in their hands.

"Naturally, it is Mobei Immortal Mine. Yelubao on the side did not shy away from it, since Empress Dowager Xiao did not stop them from talking, it was this matter that Shang Yin could know, and explained: " Brother Shang Yin, don't you know, there is an immortal mine in Mobei, which appears from time to time, like a dark dragon, and the thirteen thieves are the clues to this immortal mine, and they are all pursuing the secrets in it, including the inferior immortal jade they gave, which is mined from that vein, and the Liao State once had an agreement with them, as long as they can fix the vein, they can be co-opted, and at the same time give them one of the components of the vein, the reason why the eldest brother and the second brother will maintain the thirteen thieves is because they are all people of the Liao State sooner or later. ”

"So this is the reason why they can wantonly slaughter the people in the border regions of the two countries? These people don't know how much blood of the people of the Xia and Liao countries is stained on their hands, and if they are co-opted, aren't they afraid that the people of Donghua City will be disappointed?" Shang Yin couldn't help but feel angry when he heard this.

"What about disappointment? Compared to the immortal jade veins, the lives of those untouchables are worthless. Yelumu said indifferently: "An ordinary mortal realm, in his lifetime, can reach the output value of three catties of low-grade immortal jade at most, even if he dies ten million untouchables, what can he do? Mobei Immortal Mine, there are at least hundreds of millions of catties of low-grade immortal jade, or even medium-grade and high-grade immortal jade, if you can't even calculate this account, how will you govern the entire Liao Kingdom in the future?"

"Shang Yin, you should be the only grandson of the old immortal master, right? A person from the Xia Kingdom has reached out to the affairs of my Liao Kingdom, your hand is a bit long, right?"

"Just now, Empress Dowager Xiao asked me to share my opinion, as for what to do, it is your own business, and I naturally have no right to interfere. Shang Yin knew that in the eyes of some people, the interests of a country were above all else, and he could also understand that the interests of the people in Donghua City and Xijinguan were naturally insignificant compared to Mobei Immortal Mine, so he changed his words and said: "But with the two of them, I am afraid that they are not worthy of becoming the rulers of the Liao State in the future." ”

"What did you say?" Jerumu's eyes were extremely cold.

"I have a map in my hand, which I harvested from killing Lai Peng, and I want to give it to the Queen Mother to see if there is any discrepancy with what you know, a million lower grade immortal jade, I'm afraid it is to send beggars, right?" Shang Yin handed over the map to Yelubao.

Yelubao took the map and sent it to the Empress Dowager Xiao, after she opened it, she looked at it a few times, and held it in her hand, which was obviously not very consistent with what the Liao royal family had harvested before.

Yelumu and Yelukuan didn't know what was written on the map, but they knew very well in their hearts that these thirteen thieves would not be able to confess truthfully, and they would definitely fill their pockets, which made it difficult for them to speak at once.

"You each have your own ideas, this is very good, then each of you will do it according to your own ideas, tell them, the nest of the thirteen thieves, I will not touch, but the horse thieves in other dens, must be swept and swept away, after all, they killed so many of my Liao people, and if they don't give an explanation to the people, they can't say it, so that your 500,000 catties of low-grade immortal jade are not in vain, give them a reassuring pill to the thirteen thieves, let them put more thoughts on the Mobei Immortal Mine, and don't fight those wandering merchants all day long. "Empress Dowager Xiao has never had the slightest fluctuation in her emotions, her face is very beautiful, soft and strong, she is the real controller of the entire Liao State, even the emperor of the Liao State does not dare to disobey her will.

"Yes, Grandma. "Yelumu, Yelukuan got the letter from here, so he can rest assured, after all, they have already packed the ticket, and they will definitely not endanger the horse thief's nest.

The two of them didn't want to leave, and they also wanted to see what was written on the map.

Empress Dowager Xiao handed over the map to Yelubao and said, "I'll leave the rest of the matter to you, Xiaomu, Xiaokuan, you two have nothing to do, just step back first." ”

"Yes, Grandma. The two of them had a gloomy face, the thirteen thieves were simply cheating on them, and they were originally here to excuse them, but this is good, they were caught by Shang Yin, and now they are afraid that they will leave a bad impression in the heart of Empress Dowager Xiao.

Shang Yin didn't say anything when he saw the two of them retreating.

"Are you disappointed in this palace?" Empress Dowager Xiao stood on the pavilion corridor, looked at the fish in the pool, and smiled softly.

"Grandpa once commented on the Empress Dowager Xiao, graceful, talented, can be the empress, few men in the world can match what if, see you today, this evaluation is also pertinent, not disappointed. Shang Yin responded.

"Oh, the old immortal master actually commented on this palace like this?" Empress Dowager Xiao was a little surprised, and there was a slight fluctuation in her eyes.

"That's true, but women, women after all, are too strong, and in the long run, it's not good for your children and grandchildren, unless you can be all the time. Shang Yin's words made Ye Lubao instantly raise his heart to his throat, and he couldn't wait to quickly cover Shang Yin's mouth, and a cold sweat came out.

Even the maid next to her couldn't help but stiffen, and the hand that put the fish food was frozen in mid-air, and the atmosphere of the scene instantly became extremely strange.

No one had ever dared to speak to Empress Dowager Xiao like this, Shang Yin was the first.
