So what did the emperor of Liao do unreliable, he first listened to slander and abolished the prince, and then almost killed his grandson, so he abolished Yelu Yixin and officially established his grandson Yelu Yanxi as the king of Liang. Who Yelu Yanxi is Hong Tao knows very well, he is the last emperor of the Liao State, Emperor Tianzuo, the king of the fallen country.

He and his grandfather Liao Daozong were not the material to be emperors, and the two reigned for sixty or seventy years, and the vitality of the Liao State was ruined, and finally the Jurchens, which later became the Jin State.

Since he has not succeeded to the throne, Hong Tao is much more relaxed, and there is no need to rush to face the Liao State with swords, let alone worry about the Liao State helping the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty to go against it. This kind of difficult diplomatic technique is not something that a second-class emperor like Liao Daozong can play.

The best way is to take advantage of the decline of Liao's strength, profit as much as possible from it, and then seize the time to take the life of Western Xia. Without the ties of Western Xia, after the Jurchens stirred up chaos within the Liao State, the Northern Song Dynasty used the excuse of helping the Liao State to quell the chaos, and even the Jurchens brought the Liao State to overthrow it together. He re-stationed his troops in the north, and decided how to deal with the Mongols depending on the situation at the time.

To say that the luck of the Great Song Dynasty is also enough to carry it, get rid of the Western Xia, as well as the Liao State, after the battle of the Liao State and the rise of the Jurchens, these three countries are very effective nomadic regimes in history, and no one is easy to deal with with with the level of science and technology at that time.

But the Great Song Dynasty caught up with the third at once, and it was not easy to carry it to the Southern Song Dynasty. No matter how rich a country is, it can't afford to fight for years and months, this thing consumes the most national strength, and whoever catches up with it will be finished.

But that's not all, it was hard to deal with the three wolves, and there was a tiger squatting behind them, and the Mongol Empire was coming again. This one is more powerful than the first three combined, and he has to pick up his spirit to deal with it, which is really not idle for a moment.

"The official knows the King of Liang of the Northern Dynasty!" Hong Tao's evaluation of the emperor and grandson of the Northern Dynasty made Fu Ji's eyes wide, this is too godly, even the prince of Liao knows the truth and reality!

"I don't know, this official hasn't even seen what the border of Liao looks like, how can he recognize the emperor and grandson of Liao. However, this official knows the art of divination, and he only needs to pinch his fingers to know the rise and fall of hundreds of years! ”

There must be no reasonable explanation for this, so Hong Tao sacrificed a tried and tested trick again, pretending to be half an immortal. Not only that, but the fingers were also moving together, as if they could really calculate.

"Have you ever calculated the geometry of the Northern Dynasty?" Fu Ji really believed it, not that Hong Tao pretended to be like, but that the name of the Seven Stars in the same palace was too loud. This legend has spread all over the north, no matter what the court thinks, anyway, there is a market among the people.

"The secret of heaven must not be revealed...... But the ancients took advantage of his illness to kill him. Regardless of how many years the Northern Dynasty still has, it's true to bring all their good things first. After that, there is no need to exchange horses, and gold is the most, and there is as much as you want, and the official is of great use. Hong Tao doesn't want to dwell on this issue, women and superstition are irrational, if a woman is superstitious, there will be no way to talk about it that day.

"The concubine knew that there were already several large boxes of gold ornaments stored in the flower paste workshop. The northerners used to wear gold and silver, and they did not hesitate to take out all the jewelry in order to obtain flower paste. The official's sudden return to Beijing this time is to report the good news to His Majesty? ”

Fu Ji is really a rare good helper, since Liangzhou was taken by the new army, before Hong Tao could give orders, she first put forward a proposal to reduce the amount of horse exchange. With Liangzhou, there will be no shortage of horses, it is better to exchange something more valuable.

"It's not just for official business, after returning home, ask the princess to preside over the affairs of the two of us first, and then say, this official will always give you a name." A good helper should be treated like a good helper, Hong Tao knows what Fu Ji wants most.

“…… I'm afraid that the eldest princess won't allow it, and the slave family should tell it in advance, and the officials are to blame for this matter......"

As soon as Fu Ji heard that the concubine really wanted to marry her, she immediately threw away her brain and became a shy woman, and she was honestly afraid. After all, the horse's wife is the emperor's own sister, and even if she marries a concubine, she must obtain the consent of the eldest princess.

"Don't worry, the eldest princess won't stop you. Qianyu is a good wife, but her health is not good, and she must be respected after passing the door, so as not to make her angry. By the way, if you give birth to a few more sons to this official, Your Majesty will not blame you. ”

Whether the concubine can get the forgiveness of the eldest princess without permission, Hong Tao is very sure of this. The previous Wang Shu had already accepted eight, the eldest princess did not cry, and the emperor did not condemn him.

Moreover, the ancients valued their sons very much, especially the eunuchs, who would look down on their colleagues without a son. The eldest princess's body is not suitable for multiple births, so this task should be handed over to Fu Ji and Lian'er, both of them are in good health.

After the battle of Jisang City, the notoriety of the horse Wang Shu is completely confirmed, at least in the eyes of the Northern Song Dynasty government and the army, he is the incarnation of the Tiansha Star, and what is even more terrifying is that this Tiansha Star is still protected by the emperor, which is really unprovoked.

What if you can't mess with it? Then hide. The guards at any checkpoint did not feel that they were tougher than Li Zhongming, as long as they saw the team holding the Huangzhou official documents, they would all be allowed to pass, and they would not be checked for inspection, who would be willing to risk their lives to maintain the rules.

And the post stations along the way are even more unique, as long as there are Huangzhou officials to stay, other officials and military envoys would rather eat and sleep in the open than never stay. If someone had already arrived before, it would not have been possible to say that they had traveled overnight, and the next morning they would have to see no one in sight, and they would have set off before dawn, as if they had fled the plague.

Fu Ji's caravan is not looking at the shady smuggling business, but every time she travels, she takes the official document of military supplies, and she does not have to pay taxes and is exempt from inspection, and it is even more natural to stay in a post station.

However, Fu Ji is still relatively low-key, always keeping in mind the instructions of the colt, and never swaggering through the market. As long as she doesn't catch up with the particularly bad weather, she generally chooses to camp in the wild, trying to avoid too much contact with outsiders, and is not willing to reveal her identity too much.

It's a pity that no matter how low-key she is, those white camels, thick-soled lace-up cowhide boots, buttoned mid-shirts and breeches with particularly fat hips are always a reminder of the extraordinary origin and uniqueness of this caravan. Even if not many people know for sure that it came from Huangzhou, there are various speculations.

This time it was even more important that there were two more wagons in the caravan, not box carts for the public sale of loads, but carriages specially designed to carry people.

In addition to a few cars in Kaifeng Mansion, there is only one place where this thing is there, and that is Huangzhou, and even Weiqiao Town, which made it, cannot be seen. There seems to be a conventional belief that ordinary people should not ride in such expensive chariots and horses.

In fact, it is true that you can't buy this kind of vehicle, it's useless to have money alone, and all the carriages are given as gifts, except for the royal family, which is a dignitary in the court, and only the cargo type is sold publicly. I can also ride it when I buy it back, but no one dares to change it to the shape of a horse-drawn carriage for fear of causing trouble.

But no one really thinks about the horse, in everyone's mind, if this evil god goes out of Huangzhou, he must be wearing red armor, wearing a vicious mask, followed by countless big men with a ghost head knife in his hand, and he will be silent for several miles before and after he goes.

Whoever gasped for breath immediately pulled it out and cut it down on the street, and then hung his body on a wooden pole. Even if there was no place to find such a tall pole, a large tree had to be found instead, how could it be possible to sneak out with a camel caravan in a carriage.

Hong Tao did not understand Fu Ji's calculations on this issue, and insisted on wearing a cloak and riding a camel to mix in the camel team at first, but after passing through Lanzhou, he found that it was really the same as Fu Ji's words, and outsiders really didn't pay too much attention to this caravan except for avoiding it, so they simply got into the carriage.

Walking inland, especially on post roads, is much more comfortable in a car than on a horseback. And without myself as a hindrance, the caravan can move much faster every day.

Sleeping in the open air, non-stop, the first month has not yet come out of the tall Kaifeng City. To say that the forbidden army in Gyeonggi is still relatively powerful, they are not used to this strange camel caravan.

If you want to enter the city, you can, check the official documents, check the goods, and pay the city tax. It is estimated that the notoriety of the horse Wang Shu is not the same as the distance of the road, after all, Kaifeng City is more than 3,000 miles away from Huangzhou.
