Chapter 757: Mutation (1)
Assassins were infiltrated in the barracks, and in the end, it was the people of Naturalized Prefecture who were unlucky, and the Liao army searched for assassins. Of course, the real assassins were not found, and hundreds of innocent Han people were captured. Of course, Yelu Ruan knew that these people were by no means assassins, who the assassins were, and he knew very well in his heart, after all, there were only a few top martial arts masters in the world today, and he could count them on his fingers.
However, Yelu Ruan still swept the pen and killed the hundreds of innocent people.
The so-called Holy Son of Heaven has always been just a compliment. The emperor made his decisions, in the vast majority of cases, not on the basis of any principle of fairness, but out of necessity. For example, now Yelu Ruan needs to cut off the heads of hundreds of innocent Han people to maintain his authority and prestige, calm the impact of this incident, and deter the Han people in the sixteen states of Yanyun. Then, these hundreds of innocent people are the rioters who are guilty of rebellion. In the future, it will also be recorded in the history books to show the emperor's sage and courage. Hundreds of years later, no one will doubt it, because that's what the history books say.
As for the grievances and wrongs of the common people, who will care about it? The common people are like leeks, cutting off one stubble, or it will not be long before another stubble grows, even if these descendants of the beheaded people will soon forget the hatred forged by blood and fire, and will even wave their flags and shout for the enemies who once shared the heavens, and sing praises of virtue.
In the face of butcher's knives and interests, the so-called morality is more like a woman in a green building, who can be played with at will and interpreted in the most beneficial way for the ruler.
Looking at the hundreds of withered human heads hanging on the head of the Naturalization City, Li Fengyun's fists squeaked, and a wave of anger burned in his chest. If he planned to assassinate Yelu Ruan before only because Yelu Ruan was too much of a threat to the Central Plains, Yelu Ruan was just a symbol in his heart, and now he doesn't need to, he really wants to kill Yelu Ruan. He wants revenge, for the innumerable souls.
"Since none of the nobles of the world will give them justice, let me come, and I will let the wicked people of the world who eat people and do not spit out their bones know that when they wantonly slaughter the weak, there is also a sword hanging above their heads. ”
Li Fengyun secretly swore an oath.
Time passed quickly, and soon another four months passed, because the turmoil caused by Li Tianyao's unauthorized assassination of Yelu Ruan was gradually forgotten by people, and 200,000 of the most elite soldiers and horses of various tribes of Liao had gathered in the Liao army camp of Xianggu Mountain Huoshendian outside the naturalized city. Yelu Ruan took almost all the elite soldiers and horses of the Liao State, and prepared to set foot in the Central Plains in one go, giving the Han people of the Southern Dynasty the heaviest lesson.
Li Tianyao's injuries had completely healed, but the hatred in his eyes when he looked at Li Fengyun became stronger, especially when he knew that Li Fengyun had followed him into Yelu Ruan's barracks that night.
Seeing that the sky had completely darkened, Xiao Qirui walked outside the cave, looked into the distance, and said to himself, "It's time to come!"
The bleak west wind blew through the desolate mountains in the distance, and the dark Xianggu Mountains looked particularly vast under the night sky.
"It's better to go back!" The cuckoo's cry echoed in the valley, Xiao Qirui smiled slightly, and said, "It's here!" After that, he rubbed his mouth and let out a strange cry of a night owl, which was very terrifying.
After a while, there was a sound of a rope in the woods, and the grass was removed, and eight men came out.
"See the National Teacher!" said a middle-aged man led by the eight people to Xiao Qirui.
"His Royal Highness King Yan is very polite!" Xiao Qirui said with a smile, "His Royal Highness's loyalty to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother will never forget!
Isn't King Yan the son of Yelu Anduan, and the uncle of Yelu Hongyan. How could he be the Queen Mother's person?
Li Fengyun was shocked in his heart, and looked at the man carefully, only to see that the man was burly and had fierce eyes, but it was indeed somewhat similar to the Yelu Cha Che described by Yelu Hongyan.
At the beginning, Yelu Ruan led his troops to take down Yelu Anduan, Xiao Han and Princess Abuli and others, because Yelu Cha cut to Yelu Ruan, saying that Yelu Anduan and others were plotting to rebel. Afterwards, Xiao Han and Princess Abuli were killed, and Yelu Anduan was also sent to the border of the Western Regions.
This person was ruthless, not to mention killing Yelu Hongyan's parents, but also sent people to chase and kill Yelu Hongyan all the way, Yelu Hongyan was fortunate to get the desperate protection of Ah Da, so he could escape to Dingzhou and avoid Yelu Chacha's poisonous hands.
"National teacher, please rest assured, Cha Che has made an appointment with the chiefs who oppose Yelu Ruan, once Yelu Ruan is ambushed, with the horn as an order, the chiefs of more than 20 large and small tribes such as Yelu Ruan will immediately lead the men and horses of their headquarters to welcome the Queen Mother in charge of the whole army. Jerodzacth replied
"Okay!" Xiao Qirui was overjoyed and asked, "Your Highness, can Yelu Ruan stay in the barracks overnight today?"
Yelu Cha nodded and said: "This fang sacrificed to the queen of Liaodong Dan today, set up a banquet to entertain the ministers and the leaders of the various departments, got drunk, and stayed directly in the golden tent today. ”
Since Li Tianyao's last failed assassination of Yelu Ruan, Yelu Ruan has been very careful, and has lived in Guihua City most of the time, even if he comes to the military camp, he has made a temporary decision on which big tent to stay in every day. This made Xiao Qirui's plan to assassinate Yelu Ruan repeatedly postponed, and he never found a suitable opportunity.
"After waiting for so long, I finally learned the accurate news of Yelu Ruan today, and Ye Ruan should be killed tonight!" Xiao Qirui said coldly, with a fierce murderous aura in his tone.
Turn around. Xiao Qirui said to Li Fengyun: "General Li, it's all up to you today, don't be soft." ”
"Xiao Guoshi, don't worry! Yelu Ruan will be handed over to me!" Li Fengyun replied.
Yelu Cha cut noticed Li Fengyun, turned around, and said: "Is it General Li Fengyun Li? I have admired my name for a long time, and I only saw him today, and I am fortunate to meet him! My niece Yelu Hongyan is good at the general's place?"
Li Fengyun said with a cold face: "Yelu Chacha, do you want Li to say that she is good or bad?"
Yelu Cha sighed and said, "It seems that Hong Yan has a deep grudge against my uncle, and it is no wonder that no matter who this matter rests on, it is difficult to forgive me as an uncle." If the wild goose wants to hate me, I have nothing to say, but I, Jeruchac, have a clear conscience.
However, the situation at that time was indeed urgent, and the old thief in Yelu House already knew about his father's scheme, even if I didn't report it, Yelu Ruan would send troops to arrest me and others.
As for killing my eldest brother's whole family, it's really that my eldest brother is too involved and knows too much. Even if I don't kill him, Yelu Ruan will definitely not let him go, in case the eldest brother leaks the slightest bit of his mouth, the people killed by Yelu Ruan at that time are far more than Xiao Han and Princess Abuli. ”
