Fifty-seven years old, which can also be described as middle and late years in modern times, and she has been in power for more than forty years, so she began to control power at the age of seventeen.
Seventeen years old! In modern times, she is just an underage girl, and she is already a regent at this age, which shows how amazing her talent is.
Xiao Sui is from the young father Fang family of the Bali clan of the Khitan secret group, and his father Xiao Siwen is the elder of the four dynasties (Liao Taizong, Liao Shizong, Liao Muzong, Liao Jingzong), and he is also assisted by Jingzong, which can be said to be powerful for a while.
Xiao Sui's father is Xiao Siwen, the prime minister of the Northern Mansion of the Liao Dynasty and the concubine, and his mother is the eldest princess of Yan and the sister of Liao Muzong. Xiao Sui has two sisters, and the age gap between the three sisters is quite large.
The eldest sister Ilelan married Yelu Xiyin, the king of Song, and was named the princess of Song, after the rebellion of the king of Song, she was implicated by her husband and was deposed, called Mrs., and the second sister and Han married Yelu An, the king of Qi, and was named the princess of Qi.
It can be seen from this that the Xiao clan was definitely the first clan in its heyday.
And Empress Xiao is the descendant of Empress Dowager Xiao's mother's family, so although the Xiao clan on the grassland is not as prosperous as the Northern Song Dynasty, it should not be underestimated, the ethnic group has millions of people, and the army is also more than 100,000, if there is Xiao help, then it is not difficult to regain power.
Thinking of the background of her mother's family, Empress Xiao immediately had a plan, with the help of the Xiao family to stabilize the empire, and then use the Xiao family to control the empire's government and become the second Empress Dowager Xiao, this is Empress Xiao's ambition at the moment, and it is also because of the emperor's incompetence that stimulated Empress Xiao's huge ambition hidden in her heart.
"In the north, now there are only soldiers who can resist the old thief of the Seventh Prince, and the troops in the south have been transferred to Dadu by the old thief, so we will go to the north and borrow troops from the grassland." Empress Xiao pretended to think about it for a while before she said vigorously.
Empress Xiao didn't tell Li Tian the truth, because she felt that there were some things that shouldn't be let him know, although she and Li Tian had a bang, but Li Tian's hatred for the empire made her dare not tell Li Tian the real situation.
"Prairie!" Li Tian's heart was shocked, he didn't expect that Empress Xiao would not look for those generals who supported the army, but went to the grassland for help, which made him look down on Empress Xiao, this woman is still very smart and politically conscious.
In Li Tian's view, going to those generals and asking for help for restoration is no different from looking for death, the narrow son of heaven orders the world, this is not only Cao and Cao can think of, they are not stupid, even if they don't have this mind for a while, but after a long time, no general can not be tempted by that throne.
Therefore, it is a good idea to go to those generals who have military power, as long as they are not stupid, no one will think about it, and Empress Xiao can think of going to the grassland for help, although this is not a very clever means, but it is not a good place to go.
Although the forces on the steppe also have ambitions, they probably only want material things, and they will not have any thoughts about the throne, you know, not everyone on the steppe is Temujin, they don't have Temujin's kind of gaze.
What they want is to help some materials that can help the tribe survive the harsh winter, all, looking for the help of the grassland forces, although they will lose a lot of things, but they can consolidate their position in the empire, Empress Xiao's idea is definitely very correct.
Of course, if Li Tian's own ideas are used, then he doesn't want to rely on anyone, because only if he is completely controlled, that is control, and his position is definitely the most reliable.
Since Empress Xiao is going to the grassland, of course Li Tian will not object, not only will he not oppose it, but he will also be particularly in favor, because it will make the Yuan Dynasty more chaotic, and he can also profit from it.
It is best that the grassland forces and the local forces of the Yuan Dynasty lose both, that is the best thing, and it will save a lot of trouble if you crush it all the way in the future, and the resistance will not be too fierce.
Although Li Tian thought of Empress Xiao's idea, he had no idea that the grassland forces that Empress Xiao was looking for were not just that simple, but wanted to introduce the Xiao clan into the Central Plains and regain control of the Yuan Dynasty regime.
"Okay, I'll send you to the generals in the north who are loyal to you, and then our affairs will be settled." Li Tian said indifferently.
"Yes." Hearing Li Tian's last decisive words, a trace of disappointment and pain flashed in Empress Xiao's eyes, after all, although she did not fall in love with Li Tian completely, she also had a trace of affection for Li Tian, and now Li Tian wanted to separate herself from herself, which made Empress Xiao feel very uncomfortable.
But he could only agree, after all, Li Tian had no obligation to help them all the time, and he had only slept with him himself, otherwise he would probably not pay attention to himself.
However, this is also in line with Empress Xiao's intentions, as long as she goes to the north, and then she has a way to go to the grassland, he doesn't want Li Tian to send her directly to the Xiao family, otherwise his thoughts may be known by Li Tian, according to Li Tian's cruelty to foreign clans, he will definitely destroy his plan.
"What about me!" Hearing that Li Tian was going to send Empress Xiao to the grassland, Han Ji panicked all of a sudden, she didn't want to go to the grassland, there was no prosperity in the Central Plains, she was saying that she was still the concubine of King Ruyang.
"Go back to the Wudang faction with me first, and I'll send you back to the prince when I have time." Li Tian thought about it and said.
Where is the king of Ruyang now, Li Tian doesn't know, although Wang Baobao is mentioned, but Li Tian doesn't know where Wang Baobao is, so he has to wait for the news of the king of Ruyang in the future, and then send Han Ji back, saying that if there is Han Ji, the number one beauty in the world, along the way, isn't he blessed? At least you don't have to jerk it off yourself.
Han Ji nodded silently, she has nothing to object to, after all, she is not a strong woman, she has always been in life, she will do whatever others say, and she is very unassertive.
"In that case, let's leave as soon as possible, I'm afraid it won't be long before the pursuers come." Li Tian said.
Although the seventh prince was fainted by himself, but calculating the time, he should be about to wake up, if he wakes up, he will definitely send troops to chase and kill him in anger, although he is not afraid, but with three burdens, it is better to leave the capital as soon as possible, he doesn't want to fight hard with hundreds of thousands of troops.
When Li Tiandao went on the road, Empress Xiao and the emperor did not object, and they also knew that in the vicinity of Dadu, it was extremely dangerous, and if they were caught, they would definitely end up miserable.
"Let's go." Seeing that the two of them did not object, Li Tian picked up Han Ji again, then picked up Empress Xiao, twisted the emperor, carried Ling Bo Weibu, and rushed towards the direction of a glimmer of light in the early morning. (To be continued.) )
