"What? Li Congyi ran away?" In Bian Liang City, Xiao Han frowned, "Where can he run to?"

The house leak happened to rain overnight, the Liao army returned to the north, and Liu Zhiyuan of Hedong got the news, and he was ready to move, and he led the army south to cross the Yellow River to recapture Bian Liang. And the Southern Tang and Western Shu are still waiting.

The timid Li Congyi ran away at this time, obviously because he didn't want to be his puppet emperor, if this matter was spread, wouldn't it be a joke?

The success or failure of this snipe clam competition plan is offered by him Xiao Han, and the success or failure is related to the rise and fall of Xiao Han's clan, and Xiao Han has to be careful about it. And supporting Li Congyi as the puppet emperor of the Central Plains is the top priority. If it is used well, it is completely possible to make the Yonggu Palace Master of the Tang Dynasty, who is in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, fight with Liu Zhiyuan, who supports the troops in Hedong and has strong soldiers.

There were not many soldiers and horses left in Bian Liang in the Liao State, but more than 5,000 people, many of whom were Han soldiers recruited from the sixteen states of Yanyun. These soldiers and horses, if they want to fully control Bian Liang, also seem to be a little powerless.

According to the spies, Li Congyi fled to the mausoleum of Later Tang Mingzong and hid. Xiao Yue, the general under Xiao Han, replied.

"This useless thing! He thinks he can stay out of it by hiding in Huiling?" Xiao Han waved his hand and said, "Go, send someone to arrest this kid back." No, please come back, the decency you deserve, you still have to keep it for him. ”

Xiao Yue agreed, turned around and left the palace.

"Lord Xiao, it doesn't seem right for you to do this!"

Xiao Han's body was shocked, he slowly turned around, and said to the man: "It turned out to be the Yonggu Palace Master! The Central Plains has been a state of etiquette since ancient times, and the palace master is haunted, don't you think it's a bit of a **** to appear like this?"

"Have a ** share?" the Yonggu Palace Master laughed, "From the day I died in the Tang Dynasty, how can this palace have any identity?"

The guards outside the palace heard the movement in the Qianming Palace and rushed into the palace one after another.

Xiao Han waved his hand and said, "Let's go down, an old friend is coming to visit, there is no malice, it is not worth making a fuss." He knew that the Eternal Palace would kill him, and these guards would be of little use. He is no better than the Great Liao Emperor Yelu, there are masters around him, and there are two peerless masters, who take turns to protect the emperor's safety.

What he was going to say to the Eternal Palace Master was not suitable for these subordinates to hear.

The guards were full of shame, and the heavily guarded Qianming Palace actually let people sneak in, how could they not be ashamed? Huo Yan, who was in charge of Xiao Han's safety, saw the Yonggu Palace Master covered with light veils at a glance, and his heart was shocked, of course he recognized the Yonggu Palace Master, and he knew that he was not her opponent, so he hurriedly agreed and led the crowd out of the palace.

"Palace Master, you came to find Xiao this time, I don't know why?" Xiao Han asked knowingly.

"What is this palace doing, don't you really know?" "The voice of the Yonggu Palace Lord was a little cold, "This palace originally wanted to find Yelu Deguang, but Yelu Deguang was not easy to find, so I had to come to you, the regent of the Central Plains."

You said, what is the purpose of your doing this, this is not in line with the original agreement between the Khitan and my Yonggu Palace. ”

"What's wrong?" Xiao Han raised his eyebrows, "Xiao remembers that His Majesty promised the palace master that as long as he could destroy the Jin Kingdom, he would definitely support the restoration of the Later Tang Dynasty." Now, is there a problem with us supporting Li Congyi? Could it be that Li Congyi is not the heir of Emperor Mingzong of the Later Tang Dynasty? Isn't he the younger brother of the palace master?"

"Xiao Han, you don't have to pretend to be confused with this palace!" "The Yonggu Palace Master stared at Xiao Han deadly, "You know very well that Li Congyi is cowardly and can't bear the heavy responsibility of Zhongxing Datang at all." At the beginning, the palace asked you to support it, but it was not Li Congyi. ”

Xiao Han laughed and said, "Yonggu Palace Master, your words are wrong. Although Li Congyi's temperament is a little weaker, doesn't he still have a very powerful sister? Moreover, with the support of my Da Liao, which traitor and thief would dare to make trouble?

The bloodline of the Later Tang Emperor that my Da Liao can find out is only Li Congyi, who can he set up if he doesn't set up?"

"Hugh wants to tell this palace about these false things, this palace asks you, do you want to establish Li Shouzhen as the emperor?"

"Li Shouzhen?" Xiao Han sighed and said, "Yonggu Palace Master, it's not that we are unwilling to make Li Shouzhen the emperor, but that he is really not suitable to be the emperor. Has the palace master ever thought that even if he is really the bloodline of Emperor Mingzong and Li Cong, even if I am willing to make him emperor, does he still have this qualification?

Don't forget, it was he and Du Chongwei who brought the 300,000 Central Plains army into a desperate situation and surrendered to our Daliao. How many people hate him in the world, can the palace master count them?"

The Yonggu Palace Master felt a pain in his heart, this matter was indeed her hidden pain, and it was also Li Shouzhen's mistake. Originally, in her plan, Li Shouzhen should have withdrawn from the matter, but she didn't want Li Shouzhen to be caught up in it and let her people lose hope. The current Li Shouzhen is indeed not the best candidate for emperor.

But what can be done, the battle for the throne back then made Li Siyuan's heirs kill each other, and only Li Shouzhen and Li Congyi can survive. Compared with Li Congyi, although Li Shouzhen has all kinds of inconsistencies and many shortcomings, he is much stronger than the cowardly and fearful Li Congyi. If she doesn't choose Li Shouzhen, who can she choose? Heaven is evil, and it is against it; she is guilty of her own crimes, and she cannot live. Is that what you're talking about?

"It's not your business!" the Eternal Palace Master took a deep breath and calmed the frustration in his heart slightly.

Xiao Han sneered: "Yonggu Palace Master, this Central Plains was not beaten down by your Yonggu Palace. Who will be the emperor, I Da Liao still can't tolerate others to put their beaks. Your Majesty has decided to abide by the original agreement and let Li Congyi be the emperor of the Central Plains, what are you not satisfied with?

Whether you agree or disagree, in short, Li Congyi, the emperor, is decided, Your Majesty's jade mouth is golden, and every word is out, and the horse is difficult to chase, and there is no reason to change. Even if the palace master killed me Xiao Han today, the result would still be like this. ”

The Yonggu Palace Master didn't expect Xiao Han, an old man, to be so tough, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of respect in his heart, knowing that this matter might be difficult to change. After all, the Liao people do not do good deeds, they choose Li Congyi because they can get more benefits from Li Congyi. If you want the Liao people to change their minds, I'm afraid it can't be done at once. Moreover, at this time, the Liao army had already withdrawn from Henan and Shandong, and it was useless to threaten Yelu Deguang by attacking the Liao army.

After being silent for a while, the Yonggu Palace Master said again: "Put this matter aside for the time being, Lord Xiao, what do you say about the fact that you designed to frame Li Shouzhen and make Du Chongwei and Li Shouzhen turn against each other?"
