Chapter 273: Quelling the Chaos and the Assassination of the People (3) Letters
PS: (Today I continue to thank the book friend "The Matter Group is Yuan" for the reward!My work "Tianlong Undefeated" released a new chapter "Chapter 273 Peaceful Chaos and the Assassination of the People (3) Letters", http:///Book/3058817.aspx)
Dongfang Undefeated heard this, nodded again and again: "Brother Xiao, it's right that you can think like this." Good and evil are both true and illusory. This is the land of your parents, and you see how much the people love you. From today onwards, you will no longer be entangled in the old evils of the Han people in the Central Plains, and you will be a Khitan official and enjoy the current wealth and glory!"
Xiao Feng immediately responded: "Grievances, honors and disgraces, all to dust." As for the grudge between the warriors of the Song Kingdom and me, in fact, I don't care about it for a long time, because it's the same as the current glory, and it will disappear over time. But this is my homeland, and my father and mother must have often come and gone on this road, alas, as a son of man, I have neither known the appearance of my father and mother, nor have I spoken to them, this ...... That's the biggest ...... of my life The biggest regret. The words were full of sourness.
Dongfang Undefeated hurriedly comforted: "Okay, okay, today is the big day for our big brother Yelu to return to Beijing, so don't talk about these sad things anymore." ”
After hearing this, Yelu Hongji laughed and said, "Well, the third brother is reasonable. Second brother, don't worry, for the murder of your parents, eldest brother, I will one day crusade against the Song people and give you justice. ”
When Xiao Feng heard this, his heart sank: "Big brother, don't you want to use this as an excuse again." Soldiers against the Song State?" hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you for the kindness of the eldest brother, but this matter still needs to be investigated, maybe the real murderer who killed them was not the Song people." It's the Koreans, or the Tanguts. ”
Yelu Hongji stroked his long hair and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, then destroy them together, hahaha!"
Dongfang Undefeated and Xiao Feng heard these words, and they all thought secretly: "Big brother is really carried away now, you must know that it was in the counterinsurgency war that ended yesterday." In less than a month, thousands of soldiers and civilians had died in the Liao State, and they were about to sweep through all the states of the world. I don't know how many lives will be lost. ”
At that time, the Liao State was the largest country in the world, much stronger than the Great Song Dynasty, and its territory was twice as large as the Song Dynasty.
However, the Khitans lived as nomads and had no fixed residence. The houses, shops, and markets in Shangjing City are crude and simple. It is much worse than the Central Plains, and the cultural utensils are far inferior.
The group entered the city and went straight to the palace that had been ordered to be cleaned before.
When he came to the Kaihuang Palace, Yelu Hongji re-boarded the dragon chair, stroked the armrests of the bright and dangling, and thought that he had almost lost the thing under him forever, and he was full of emotion for a while.
Looking around in the Jinluan Palace, I felt that everything was both familiar and unfamiliar. In the end, looking at Xiao Feng and Dongfang Undefeated, who were standing under His Majesty Dan, he stroked his beard. said with a smile: "Haha, second brother, third brother, in this battle, if it weren't for the two of you who sacrificed their lives and forgot to die, and helped each other, brother, I am afraid that I would have become a lonely ghost on the plain now." Such a life-saving grace and a reinstatement virtue, brother, I will repay it no matter what. Whatever reward you want, my brother will not allow it!"
Saying that, he patted the armrest of the dragon chair and continued: "Even if you want half of the rivers and mountains of Da Liao, you will agree to the same!"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Feng and Dongfang Undefeated immediately knelt down and said in unison: "Brother Dare. ”
Xiao Feng continued: "When I helped His Majesty to fight, I was just brave for a while, saving my righteous brother and saving myself, not for any reward. Your Majesty conferred on me the title of King of Chu and ordered me to take charge of the Great Liaoning Southern Courtyard, which is already extremely honorable, in addition, how dare my brother ask for any other reward?"
Yelu Hongji waved his hand and said, "Second brother, since you don't say it, then brother, I will make my own decision and send you some of the top treasures of our Liao Kingdom." ”
He turned his head and asked Dongfang Undefeated: "Third brother, what about you? If you want to say that you have the greatest credit for this rebellion, you are better than the second brother." Do you have to choose your reward, or will I choose it for you, brother?"
Dongfang was undefeated and replied: "That's good, let's choose it yourself! The younger brother wants His Majesty to reward me with three things." ”
When Yelu Hongji heard this, he laughed and said, "Haha, the third brother is still happy, what three rewards do you want?"
Xiao Feng was a little puzzled, and secretly wondered: "What's the matter? According to my understanding of him, Brother Dongfang is not a person who covets wealth and nobility, how can he take the initiative to ask for rewards from his eldest brother, and moreover, he wants three things at once?"
Dongfang Undefeated waved his hand and commanded outside the hall: "Lift up!"
The six big men took out three large boxes, stepped into the main hall in turn, put them on the ground, and then withdrew.
Yelu Hongji and Xiao Feng looked at the boxes, but when they saw that each was five feet square, they didn't know what they contained.
Dongfang Undefeated Chaoyelu Hongji bowed his hand and reported: "Your Majesty, when Weichen searched the palace, he found a lot of letters expressing loyalty to the puppet emperor Yelu Chongyuan, most of which were written by officials who stayed in Beijing, and of course there were also many handwritten by local officials and officers stationed in other places. ”
"What?" When Yelu Hongji heard this, he was shocked and angry, jumped up directly from the imperial chair, and asked, "Is this true?
Dongfang Undefeated pointed to the three big boxes beside him and replied: "It's true, the belief is in these boxes." ”
"Bring it up and show me!" said Yeluhongji urgently.
"Wechen obeyed. Dongfang Undefeated agreed, and with a flick of his sleeves, the big box on the right took advantage of the situation, and she was attracted by the "Northern Spiritual Righteousness", and the three letters lying on the top flew into her palm with a "whoosh".
Dongfang Undefeated picked up the letter with both hands, stood up, respectfully walked up to Yelu Hongji, and handed it to him.
Yelu Hongji took the letter, took out the letter from an envelope, read it carefully, and then read two more letters in a row, and the more he read it, the more his brows furrowed, and he muttered: "How can this be true, how can it really be unreasonable!"
Dongfang Undefeated immediately played: "Your Majesty, the first reward that your brother wants is to ask Your Majesty to issue a decree to burn all these letters to show his appeasement to his subordinates. ”
"What? you, you want me to reward you with this?" Yelu Hongji immediately looked up at her, looking even more astonished.
"That's right, Weichen wants this. Dongfang Undefeated's face remained calm and calm, but his tone was full of resolute answers.
"Okay, brother, I'm ready. Yelu Hongji pondered for a moment, and immediately agreed, and then commanded: "Come, carry these three big boxes out to me, and burn all the contents of them, so that I will not be upset when I see them." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" the six big men returned to the Jinluan Hall and took out the big box.
Seeing the three boxes slowly move out of the main hall, Yelu Hongji asked Dongfang Undefeated again: "Third brother, I have already given you the first reward you want, what about the other two?" (To be continued......
