Yelu Yanxi woke up after being comatose for a long time. He saw the three parties of Yelu Chun, Yelu Qi, and Yelu Hao fighting in front of Yelu Hongji's mausoleum. Heads fell in front of him one after another. He could only feel stupid. He stood still.
Fortunately, with Xiao Wuna's immediate command, his palace guards were not completely defeated. Zhang Lin, Yelu Dashi, Yelu Zhangnu, Xiao Haili and other martial arts masters worked hard to protect him, so he would not be killed by the rebels.
The three parties fought with each other, blood flowed into the river, and the originally white ground was instantly dyed red with hot blood. Snow and blood blended together, and the snow-red water flowed towards the river running through the city of Beijing. Yelu Chun and others retreated continuously and were about to be defeated.
Although Yeluqi, Yeluzhu and others were outnumbered, they had already prepared. However, Ye Luhao suddenly arrived and disrupted their position. After a while, they were unable to fight anymore.
Seeing that victory was in sight, Yeluhao, who was highly skilled in martial arts, led his guards to rush left and right. After repelling Yeluqi and others for several miles, he immediately attacked Yelu Yanxi.
The menacing Yeluhao and other rebels came like a flood. Yelu Chun, Yelu Hanliduo, Yelu Zhangnu, Xiao Haili, Xiao Qian and others protected the Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi while coordinating the retreat. However, they are about to reach the point of no return.
Xiao Fengxian, who was hiding on the side and watching the fire, saw that it was time to make a final decision. He simply closed his eyes, picked up the short arrow on the ground, and said to himself:
"I, Xiao Feng, will throw this arrow first. If it hits the small tree in front of me, I will lead the army to put down the rebellion and help the country as a guard of Emperor Tianzuo Yelu Yanxi."
"If you fail, follow the instructions of Your Excellency Yeluhao and lead eight thousand warriors to kill Yelu Yanxi and Yelu Qi, and help Your Excellency Yeluhao win the throne of the Liao Dynasty."
Xiao Fengxian closed his eyes tightly, and after pondering for a moment, he simply threw the short arrow forward. Unexpectedly, the short arrow was firmly inserted into the small tree opposite.
Xiao Fengxian was greatly shocked, so he took a look at the place where everyone was fighting and saw Ye Luhao, who was about to win, looking around. He seemed to be looking for himself, sending out secret signals one after another, suggesting that he would send troops to help him make the final decision.
After seeing this, Xiao Fengxian shouted, and the eight thousand warriors hiding in the cave immediately came out, killing everyone down the mountain like a flood.
Yelu Yanxi immediately fell to the ground, seemingly waiting for death and the collapse of the Liao Dynasty.
Yeluqi and Yeluzhu ran away and led their brothers in the tent to retreat quickly.
Yeluhao was so proud that he was laughing loudly, as if he was telling the world that he, Yeluhao, was the Ninth Five-Year Plan of the Liao Dynasty.
A moment later, Xiao Fengxian took the lead, holding a spear and a broadsword, leading thousands of guards to arrive like lightning. Yeluhao, who was unable to dodge, immediately fell to the ground.
Xiao Feng felt relieved after killing Yeluhao first, and immediately said loudly:
"Reporting to your Majesty, Xiao Fengxian, under the order of His Majesty the Late Emperor, set up an ambush five miles away. Unexpectedly, there were traitors who caused trouble. Fortunately, although my rescue came late, it did not lead to a big mistake. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. ".
Seeing that his loyal bodyguard Xiao Fengxian came with troops and successfully killed Yelu Hao, the leader of the rebels, and scared off the leader of another rebel group. Everyone finally turned the corner, and Yelu Yanxi was finally relieved.
After seeing this, Xiao Wuna immediately said loudly:
"General Xiao Fengxian has arrived just in time. Please quickly quell the rebel leader and return the Liao Dynasty to a bright future."
After saying that, Xiao Feng first led his troops to kill Yeluhao's rebels. Yelu Chun, Yelu Zhangnu, Yelu Oriduo, Xiao Qian, Xiao Haili and others also quickly led their troops to counterattack. In less than half a day, tens of thousands of rebels were killed. Kill them all.
However, the eight thousand soldiers entrusted to him by Xiao Fengxian's lord Yeluhao were also killed by the rebels. This happened to be Xiao Fengxian's conspiracy.
Therefore, from then on, everyone who knew Xiao Fengxian's secret, and who knew that she had been loyal to his lord Yeluhao, was dead. He became the imperial guard of Yelu Yanxi, the emperor of Tianzuo.
Xiao Fengxian, who returned from the victory in high spirits, took his younger brother Xiao Sixian and dozens of guards who were lucky enough to survive, stepped on everyone's corpses, and quickly came to Yelu Yanxi's side. He knelt down without hesitation and said:
"Your Majesty, my minister Xiao Fengxian has fulfilled his mission and has annihilated all the rebels such as Yeluqi and Yeluzhu."
After finishing speaking, Xiao Feng first threw the heads of Yelu Qi, Yelu Zhu and Yelu Hao in front of Yelu Yanxi, continued to kneel down and said:
"Your Majesty, there are no more treacherous ministers in our Liao Dynasty to disrupt the government. Long live your Majesty."
Yelu Yanxi was very pleased and finally showed a bright smile. Xiao Wuna, Yelu Chun, Yelu Dashi and others on the side did not have many surprises.
Especially the experienced Xiao Wuna, who kept stroking his beard and meditating silently.
After Xiao Fengxian saw this, he signaled to Yelu Yanxi, then immediately stood up and quickly went to kneel down in front of the mausoleum of the late Emperor Yelu Hongji.
He kowtowed three times and said loudly:
"Your Majesty, the late Emperor, although you have left us, your foresight has allowed us to continue the Liao Jiangshan Sheji. I, Xiao Fengxian, admire you greatly."
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. In accordance with your instructions before your death, I have killed the rebels Yeluqi, Yeluzhu, and Yeluhao. The rebels have all been killed. Our country, the Liao Dynasty, is in peace and prosperity. You can rest in peace." ”.
After Xiao Fengxian finished speaking, he continued to kneel in front of the mausoleum of Emperor Daozong Yelu Hongji, and suddenly burst into tears.
Yelu Yanxi burst into tears with gratitude. She slowly came to Xiao Fengxian's side and said from the bottom of her heart:
"Thank you, Mr. Xiao, for saving your life. Please accept my prayers."
After finishing speaking, Yelu Yanxi gave a big gift to Xiao Fengxian who was kneeling on the ground.
At this moment, hundreds of court officials and Khitan nobles knelt in front of Daozong Emperors Yelu Hongji and Xiao Fengxian, and said with sincere gratitude:
"Thank you, His Majesty the late Emperor, for your foresight, and thank you, Mr. Xiao, for your life-saving grace."
After Xiao Fengxian saw this, he immediately returned the salute to everyone.
At this moment, Yelu Yanxi ignored the arrow wound on his right arm, lifted up Xiao Fengxian who was unable to kneel, faced the ministers and Khitan nobles, and said sonorously and forcefully:
"Yelu Qi, Yelu Zhu, and Yelu Hao gathered together to plot a rebellion and punish the nine clans. Yelu Dashi, Yelu Oriduo, Yelu Nuge, Xiao Haili, Zhang Lin, Xiao Qian, etc. helped me put down the rebellion and made countless contributions, so they should be rewarded."
"Therefore, Yelu Dashi is specially named the governor of Songzhou, Yelu Nuge and Yelu Hanliduo are generals, and Xiao Qian is the king of Xi."
"I conferred the title of Yelu Chun as the King of Wei, and led Nanjing to stay and guard the sixteen states of Yanyun. I conferred the title of Xiao Wuna as the Grand Master to help me take charge of the government. I conferred the title of Yelu Zhangnu as the Prime Minister of the country."
"Among them, my sincere bodyguard Xiao Fengxian has made the greatest contribution. Xiao Fengxian is specially named the Prince of Lanling County, the Prime Minister of the Zuo Kingdom, and the First Assistant of the Dynasty. For the rest of the people, Xiao Fengxian, the First Assistant, drafts the decree first, and then rewards according to their merits."
After Yelu Yanxi finished speaking, the court ministers and Khitan nobles immediately knelt down and said loudly:
"Long live the emperor, long live the Liao Dynasty, long live the Liao Dynasty."
Yelu Yanxi waved his hand, and all the ministers immediately stood up. Xiao Fengxian walked slowly to Yelu Yanxi's side, enjoying the worship of everyone.
At this point, Xiao Fengxian transformed from a mere fifth-grade imperial guard to the chief minister of the dynasty who was under one person and over ten thousand people.
