Yelu Hongji rode his horse in a hurry and rushed to the front of the Kaihuang Palace. After the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info turned over and dismounted, he threw away the reins and shouted at the chamberlain: "Go, call the king of Chu to me!" ”

Where did the chamberlain dare to question Yelu Hongji's will? Just as he was about to leave, Yelu Hongji shouted again: "Slow down, come back first!" The chamberlain hurriedly ran back and bowed his head respectfully in front of Yeluhongji.

Yelu Hongji said: "That's it, you go to Weidian and call Xiao Dingxu to ......."

The chamberlain took the order and left, Yelu Hongji was preoccupied and entered the palace of the emperor.

This palace is called the palace, but it is actually composed of many palaces. Liao's political, military, economic and other major state decisions will be made here. The palace that Yelu Hongji entered was not the main hall of the emperor's palace, but a side hall. The main hall is the place where the early dynasty went up, and the side hall is the place where Yelu Hongji handles political affairs and receives ministers on weekdays. In fact, with Yelu Hongji's temperament, where would he sit here for a long time? Every time I can't see a few books, I am sleepy-eyed and ordered to go to the Ming Wanglou.

In this way, it is cheaper for the Tongzhi of the Northern Court, who is favored by him, and the privy envoy Yelu Yixin is even more powerful than the prime minister, and can handle state affairs for Yelu Hongji. As time went by, Yelu Yixin naturally developed a self-interested heart, and began to use his power to seek personal gain. He never formed a party, so he won the trust of Yelu Hongji, who was very suspicious, but as soon as he believed someone's words, he would be convinced.

As soon as he entered the side hall of the Kaihuang Palace, Yelu Hongji saw Yelu Yixin bowing down the table and carefully reviewing the folds, and Yelu Hongji was very pleased. Yelu Yixin felt that the light was blocked, looked up, and found that it was Yelu Hongji, and hurriedly got up and knelt down and said: "The minister didn't know that His Majesty had arrived, and it was a capital crime to miss the distance!" ”

Yelu Hongji showed a rare smile and said, "What is the guilt of the privy envoy? Hurry up, please ...... Alas, there are so many courtiers in the court, so you can save me a snack. I went to see the Queen Mother today, and the Queen Mother actually said that there was news of a big insect in Taizi Mountain, which was a plot by someone who wanted to rebel. He also said that the person was the imperial uncle, and I didn't believe it, so I wanted to find someone to go to the imperial uncle's mansion to have a look......"

When Jeruyisin heard this, his thoughts raced. The imperial uncle has always been at odds with him, if he really rebelled and was killed by Yelu Hongji, then his power in the court would be even more unstoppable.

Thinking of this, Yelu Yixin immediately said: "Your Majesty, how could the imperial uncle rebel? This is nonsense! Under the imperial uncle, there are 10,000 people. He has millions of tribes, 100,000 soldiers, and has been guarding the border of Daliao for many years. was born and died for the first emperor, how could he rebel? ”

This is the genius of Yelu Yixin, he looks like he is talking about the merits of the imperial uncle, but in fact, he is not deliberately exposing the strength of the imperial uncle? Tribal millions, that's an exaggeration, but hundreds of thousands are certainly there. With the addition of Han Chinese slaves, it is estimated that it is close to one million. 100,000 soldiers, it is also an exaggeration, after the battle of Youzhou City, Yelu Chongyuan lost his troops and lost his generals, and his strength was greatly reduced, how could there be 100,000 soldiers?

But Yelu Hongji doesn't think so, he is the emperor, and when he thinks about it, the courtiers under him have such a big power, not only people, soldiers, but also money, which emperor will eat well and sleep soundly? Previously, Yelu Hongji was convinced of the imperial uncle, so he connived at the current situation, but after learning that the imperial uncle had a heart of disobedience, Yelu Hongji was uncomfortable.

Just after Yelu Hongji was silent for a long time, an attendant outside the side hall walked in and said, "Your Majesty, Xiao Dingxu, the royal tent has arrived. ”

At this time, Yelu Hongji finally made up his mind and said, "Let him in!" ”

Not long after, Xiao Dingxu, the chief of the ten thousand horsemen who rode the imperial tent, walked into the palace of the emperor, saluted Yelu Hongji and said: "Xiao Dingxu is riding the imperial tent, see Your Majesty!" ”

Yelu Hongji turned around and saw Xiao Dingxu with his head down. Xiao Dingxu is ten years older than Yelu Hongji, and he is now in his forties. After many years of fighting horses, his complexion was dark and shiny, and his eyes were full of murderous aura, and he only retracted a little in front of Yelu Hongji. After more than 20 years of riding career, Xiao Dingxu's angular face seems to have been blown by the wind and sand. As everyone knows, if Xiao Feng hadn't been born, maybe the title of the first Khitan warrior would still be in Xiao Dingxu's hands.

"Xiao Dingxu, I have one thing that I need you to do......" Yelu Hongji said slowly.

"Your Majesty has a will, Xiao Dingxu will definitely complete it!"

Listening to Xiao Dingxu's categorical words, Yelu Hongji was a little relieved: "I want you to go to the Imperial Uncle's Mansion to see if the King of Chu is there." If not, you will find him for me and come back and tell me! ”

Although Xiao Dingxu didn't understand a little, he still immediately said: "The minister obeys the order!" "With that, I'm leaving.

At this time, Yelu Yixin spoke again: "Your Majesty, the imperial uncle is a clan with a golden coupon for avoiding death, so ...... Not really, right? ”

Yelu Hongji suddenly said angrily: "What's wrong? Da Liao is my Da Liao, not his imperial uncle's! ”

Looking at Yelu Hongji, who was like an angry lion, Xiao Dingxu seemed to know that this time's will was not so simple. The emperor and the imperial uncle had a conflict, but let him be this two-sided unpleasant person. However, Xiao Dingxu was not stunned, after all, he was the commander of the ten thousand horsemen who rode the imperial tent, and the imperial uncle of Liang did not dare to do anything to him.

Yelu Hongji was angry, and when he saw Xiao Dingxuan stunned in place, he said angrily: "What are you doing here?" ”

When Xiao Dingxu heard this, he hurriedly bowed down and walked out of the Kaihuang Palace. Yelu Hongji was still angry, and yelled at Yelu Yixin, who still wanted to say something: "You go out too!" ”

Knowing Yelu Hongji's temperament, he likes to anger people. Yelu Yixin's fanning of the flames has also paid off, and there is no need to stay here. With a little trickery, Yelu Chongyuan's status in Yelu Hongji's heart plummeted, so he bought and sold, and did it!

Seeing that Yelu Yixin also went out, Yelu Hongji was still angry. I trusted Uncle Huang so much, but I was deceived for so many years. "I ask myself if I treat the imperial uncle well, why did he do this?" Yelu Hongji was puzzled.

If Yelu Chongyuan was here, he would definitely say: "Under one person, above ten thousand, it sounds majestic, but in fact it is still a king." How can a king be compared to an emperor? ”

Indeed, the human heart is like this, and it can never be satisfied. Greed is the original sin, but without greed, there is no progress. Delong Wangshu is always the best portrayal of people's hearts. When you are a farmer, you want an acre of fertile land; When you have good land, you want more good land; When you have more fertile land, you become a landlord, and then you want to have an official position; When you have an official position, you will think about being promoted; When the official is the prime minister, under one person and above ten thousand, you will covet the emperor's throne.

Yelu Chongyuan is probably the same, the Khitans have no concept of fertile land, they fight for the population, and they are Han slaves. With a population of up to one million and an imperial uncle, what else is Yelu Chongyuan greedy for? Naturally, it is the emperor's throne under Yelu Hongji, not to mention that Yelu Nerugu wants to rebel more than Yelu Chongyuan, and wants to be the emperor more! (To be continued.) )
