Chapter 1135: The Truth About Poisoning (16)
Shi Xiaozhong suddenly smiled, "Xiao Sabi, you are really naΓ―ve." It is true that the old man is old, but the old man is not old and confused. But you, don't be ashamed, do you think that if you kill Your Majesty, you will be able to become the emperor of Liao? β
He pointed at the panicked ministers, "The ministers in the court, do you think they will be at your mercy?" β
Xiao Sabi sneered, "Old man, take a closer look, what kind of panic they have become, after a while, when the army arrives, the knife will be on their necks, and I am afraid that they will not obey me?"
I Xiao Sabi wants to be the emperor, whoever is not satisfied, I will cut whom, one is not convinced, I will cut one, a hundred will not be convinced, I will cut a hundred, until the rest of the people are served.
Don't you want to say anything nonsense like backbone, I ask you, hard bones or hard axes? Don't you understand this after living for so many years? β
Shi Xiaozhong was righteous and awe-inspiring, "Then the old man will let you see if the old man's bones are hard, or your knife and axe are hard!" β
But Shi Xiaozhong said that, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Yelu Hongji, who had just been kicked to the ground, sitting on the ground with a frightened face, and suddenly deflated.
Xiao Sabi said in ecstasy, "What's the use of you having backbone?" Look at Yelu Hongji, the old and confused grandson, who is so frightened that he can't stand up, counting on him to succeed to the throne, do you think you are confused?
The Khitan people have always only respected the strong, and this has been the case for thousands of years, and it is undeniable that Yelu Hongji is indeed a generation of heroes, but Yelu has been in power for nearly two hundred years since the founding of the Great Liao.
If Yelu Yanxi is a young hero, where is my Xiao Sabi? But the truth is that he is a bear, no, no, no, not even a bear, the bear is at least fierce.
But what about him, haha, he's just a sheep, a bleating little sheep. He has been pampered since he was a child, and he has never been on the battlefield, let alone the natural ability to be an emperor.
And what do we Khitans and the entire Liao Kingdom rely on to get to where we are today? Is it the wildness of the wolf or the weakness of the sheep?
I don't think I need to say more, everyone here, you should know it in your hearts! β
After Shi Xiaozhong and several other ministers listened, they suddenly felt that what Xiao Sabi said made a little sense, although Yelu Hongji was a strong emperor, his descendants withered, and the three generations were passed down to this point, and one generation was not as good as the next.
And a few days ago, it was rumored that Yelu Yanxi could not have children, and could only rely on the way of surrogacy to pass on the lineage, which made everyone lose confidence in Yelu Yanxi in an instant.
Shi Xiaozhong was disheartened, and he also knew that he was an old civil servant, and he couldn't change the situation at the moment, only a lament remained.
Yelu and Lu Wei said, "Xiao Sabi, are you justified in killing the king and usurping power?" As the emperor of my Great Liao, I can't turn your turn to be a rebellious dog!
Although my royal brother's descendants are withering, there are still a large number of talents in the Yelu clan's royal family, what is the matter with your surname Xiao?! β
Xiao Sabi glared at him viciously, "Yingcai? Who are you talking about? Is that you? β
"Hahahaha......"
He suddenly laughed wildly, "Yelu and Lu Wei, do you really not know that you are sixty years old?" Still talented? A money-hungry and lustful talent?
Do you think that if others don't say it, they really don't know? How much money have you been greedy for over the years, how many concubines have you raised, do you want me to help you count them? β
Yelu and Lu Wei were poked in the short spot by him, and immediately their eyes widened with anger, and they retorted, "Put your female horse's bullshit!" β
"Hehe," Xiao Sabi suddenly pointed to the direction where the foreign envoy was sitting just now, "Among the foreign envoys over there, there are a few of them, not long ago, they came to visit your Liang Wangfu and asked you to help them cheat when they were recruiting relatives in the martial arts competition.
I don't know how much money others sent, but the Goryeo envoys sent dozens of Silla women to your house, but many people saw it, why, you want to open a brothel? β
Yelu and Lu Wei were speechless, and he wanted to refute it, but what Xiao Sabi said was true, and the ministers also looked at him with disdain, making him sit on pins and needles.
Xiao Sabi said again, "Don't you just want to sit on the throne?" What are you doing that far? The men on the grassland should dare to act, look at you like a bear, if you have the ability, stand up and fight with Lao Tzu! If you don't have the ability, you will shrink your head into your shell and stay honest! β
Yelu and Lu Wei were about to explode in their hearts, but now Xiao Sabi had already prepared, but he only had dozens of subordinates by his side, and if they really fought together, he could only suffer.
What's more, I don't know how many soldiers under Xiao Sabi's command have already received orders and are rushing in the direction of the camp, and they will rush to the camp in an instant.
There were only 3,000 guards in the camp, and although they were brave and good at fighting, they were the elite of the Liao army.
But even if they have three heads and six arms, they can't compete with the absolute superiority of the people's numbers, and once Xiao Sabi's men and horses enter the camp, whoever resists will die.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Yelu and Lu Wei also began to think about how to escape, where were they in the mood to argue with Xiao Sabi?
There are not a few people who have such thoughts, but at present, the guards have surrounded several entrances and exits of the camp, and no one can escape, and everyone can only pray that God will let them escape this fate.
However, Yang Huairen was not in a hurry, as if nothing had happened, and repeated the sentence with Xiao Sabi with a smile, "Xiao Sabi, you really can't do it." β
"Can't make it? Yang Huairen, do you really think so? β
Xiao Sabi burst with confidence, spread his hands and said, "You can see clearly with your eyes open, the Su Guards only care about guarding the Golden Tent and a few entrances and exits of the camp, and they don't care about me, let alone others."
The two major Khitan surnames, the number of ethnic groups and the number of people are almost the same, our Xiao family, is also a Khitan, why can the surname Yelu be the emperor, but our surname Xiao cannot?
Since Da Liao is the world of the Khitan people, everyone should take turns to sit in the village, the Yelu clan has held the throne for many years, and it is also the turn of our surname Xiao to sit down.
Don't you Han people have a saying, what you say is that the capable live in it, Yelu Yanxi is not angry, I Xiao Sabi will sit on the throne for him, what is the matter?
I can guarantee that if everyone supports me to sit on the throne of the emperor, I will make the Liao State stronger, isn't this what everyone wants to see? β
Xiao Sabi instigated, it seems that many people also agree with his point of view, the key is that Xiao Sabi's soldiers are pressing, and some court officials who have been neutral do not have the courage to oppose him in order to save their lives.
Seeing that more and more people began to lean towards him succeeding to the throne, Xiao Sabi was overjoyed and said to Yang Huairen, "See? My Xiao Sabi succeeding to the throne as emperor is the desire of the people!
Yang Huairen, the affairs of our Khitan people have nothing to do with you, for the sake of you being the envoy of the Song Dynasty, I will not kill you, what was the relationship between Song and Liao, and what will be the future, you should not interfere. β
