"The steaming and fumigating furnace can soothe the lonely and depressed. If a concubine is dirty and humble, she will soak herself with royal fragrance and penetrate her skin. The steaming and fumigating furnace is waiting for your entertainment."
After Xiao Puxiannu finished singing a song, Yelu Chun who was standing by her burst into praises. The two of them made peace with each other, feeling very uncomfortable.
After a while, Yelu Chun drew his sword and danced. Playing with the sword that had not seen blood for a long time, he started dancing with his hands and feet in the palace of Weijun Prince in Nanjing City.
Seeing this, Xiao Puxian immediately picked up the pipa on the table, played her familiar poems, and sang crisply:
"Zhang Mingzheng, just like the orioles. As soon as I play the song in the room, it is often matched with the sound of wind and rain in front of the window. Zhang Mingzheng, waiting for you to listen."
After the two played together like a match made in heaven for a while, the old man Yelu Chun rested for a moment, sat on a chair, took a sip of tea, and held Xian Xiao Pu in his arms.
At this moment, the footsteps of more than a dozen people came from outside the door. Yelu Chun was shocked. He immediately let go of Xiao Pu Xiannu who was sitting on his lap. He walked outside the door and saw that it was Xiao Dili, Xiao Yanliu and others who came to the door. visit.
Yelu Chun and Xiao Pu Xiannu immediately walked out of the door to greet them, and they walked towards the crowd with smiles on their faces. After a while, Yelu Chun laughed and said:
"Xiao Dili, Xiao Yanliu, aren't you following General Yelv Zhangnu in the tribe outside Shangjing City? Why did you come to my palace in Nanjing, Prince Wei of Nanjing? Please sit down quickly"?
After Yelu Chun finished speaking, Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu did not stop, but followed Yelu Chun closely towards the main hall of Weijun Prince's Mansion.
After arriving at the main hall, Xiao Dili sat down unceremoniously, laughed a few times and then whispered:
"Hahaha, my brother-in-law, my Royal Highness Prince Wei, we don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. We do have something to discuss with you."
"Hey, hey, if you want to discuss or not discuss, just say it, we are all our own people, don't hide it."
"Brother-in-law, His Royal Highness the King of Wei, a few months ago, the emperor sent Yelu Hanli Duo to lead an army of 270,000 to attack the Jin Empire, but he returned with a huge defeat."
"I can't believe that my arrogant cavalry of the Daliao Dynasty was so completely defeated, with corpses everywhere. Because of this, the Jurchens' army of the Jin Empire took advantage of the victory and captured more than fifty states in the eastern part of our Liao Dynasty in one fell swoop, fighting against the Daliao branch. ".
"Therefore, after this incident, the important ministers of the Daliao court have lost confidence in Emperor Tianzuo Yelu Yanxi. General Yelu Zhangnu and others believe that Yelu Yanxi is not worthy of the position and is not as virtuous as you. Therefore, we accept General Yelu Zhangnu as The general and other important officials of the imperial court entrusted me to come here to discuss with you and decided to depose Emperor Tianzuo Yelu Yanxi and make you the emperor of the Liao Kingdom."
After Xiao Dili finished speaking, he and Xiao Yanliu immediately knelt down and said:
"His Royal Highness Prince Wei, you are a member of the royal family of the Daliao Dynasty. You are famous throughout the world and should be enthroned as emperor to revive the great power of the Liao Dynasty. We are here to welcome you to the throne as emperor."
After Xiao Yanliu finished speaking, Xiao Dili on the side immediately said:
"Your Highness, Prince Wei, Xiao Yanliu is right. We have led an army of three thousand and are stationed in Nanjing City, next to your Prince Wei's Mansion, just to welcome you to the capital and proclaim yourself emperor. Please be honored with the throne. , ascended the throne as emperor."
After Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu finished talking to each other, Yelu Chun walked back and forth for a moment. Looking at the two people with treacherous faces, he thought for a moment and said:
"You two, please wait for a moment. I will go to the backyard and call your sister Xiao Nan. We, brothers and nephews, will have a few drinks and then eat and talk."
Seeing that Ye Luchun was overjoyed, but with little hesitation, Xiao Dili glanced at Xiao Yanliu, winked at him, and nodded to each other.
After that, Yelu Chun called the guards of Weijun Prince's Mansion, brought them good tea and fruits, invited the two of them to sit down, and then walked slowly to the backyard.
After leaving the sight of Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu, Yelu Chun looked around and saw that there were already many undercover agents from Xiao Yanliu and others in Weijun Palace. After entering the backyard, he saw no one around, so he breathed a sigh of relief and sat down slowly.
At this moment, his concubine Xiao Puxiannu suddenly walked in and asked with a blank look on her face:
"Your Majesty, you are walking in a hurry. I think it was Xiao Dili and Xiao Yan who brought you good news?"
"Yes, ma'am, I'm just hesitant and can't make up my mind yet, so I came here to think about it in a secluded place."
"Oh, really? Your Majesty, please tell me. Maybe I, the virtuous woman Xiao Pu, can give you some advice."
"Well, that's it. General Yelu Zhangnu knew that the king had been deprived of military power, and he was dissatisfied. So when the emperor was leading an army of 700,000 to conquer Wanyan Aguda of the Jin Empire, he wanted to unite with the important officials of the imperial court to abolish Tian Emperor Zuo, Yelu Yanxi, supported me as the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, so I was distracted and hesitant."
"Hahaha, that's it. I don't know whether the king wants to be the puppet emperor of Yelu Zhangnu, or whether he wants to be the official minister of Emperor Tianzuo."
"What do you think Madam said?"
"Hmph, your Majesty, you don't know. Over the past few days, I, Prince Wei, have placed a lot of spies from Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu in the palace. Even in Nanjing City, there are many new faces."
"Therefore, I think these people are the soldiers under Yelu Zhangnu, Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu. If they really wanted you to ascend the throne as emperor, why would they do this? From this point of view, they just want to support an obedient man. Just a puppet emperor."
"Hahaha, it's really admirable that Madam has such vision. However, I, Yelu Chun, am not a person who doesn't know right from wrong. Although I was deprived of military power by the emperor, and I was once dissatisfied, I, Yelu Chun, am the son of Taizu Emperor Yelu Abaoji. How can descendants do anything that harms the inheritance of their ancestors?"
"It seems that I, the wise woman Xiao Pu, have misunderstood the king. I don't know how the king should respond."
"In the face of major right and wrong, I, Yelu Chun, have never been confused or ambiguous. Of course, I killed Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu and informed His Majesty the Emperor, who was still fighting on the front line, to take precautions."
After finishing speaking, Lady Xiao Pu immediately said loudly:
"Come here, go to the main hall of the palace immediately, kill Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu, chop off their heads, and send them here overnight to His Highness for disposal."
After Xiannu Xiao Pu finished speaking, hundreds of guards came out of the backyard and walked toward the main hall of Weijun Prince's Mansion with swords in hand. Yelu Chun was stunned to see it.
After a while, he came back to his senses and said with a confused look:
"Madam, where did these hundreds of guards come from? How did you do it?"
"Your Majesty, since you led the troops to conquer Wanyan Aguda of the Jin Empire, Dashi Linya, who is far away in Shangjing City, has noticed Yelu Zhangnu's disobedient behavior."
"A month ago, after seeing Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu leading their troops to leave Yelv Zhangnu's tribe, Dashi Linya quickly sent a letter asking me to prepare. Therefore, Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu have been unable to fly. Well, please don’t worry, Your Majesty.”
After Xiannu Xiao Pu finished speaking, Yelu Chun burst into tears of gratitude, touched her little face and said:
"Madam, why didn't you tell me earlier why you, a weak woman like you, have to worry about such men's matters?"
"Hahaha, Your Majesty, I am your concubine, and I should share your worries. As I said, after you were exposed to the power of a hundred thousand soldiers, you indulged in drinking and sex all day long and were in a bad mood. How can I let you worry?"
After Xiao Puxiannu finished speaking, Yelu Chun was so moved that he could not speak and had to hug Xiaopuxiannu tightly.
A moment later, the guards of the Weijun Palace came with the heads of Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu. Yelu Chun knew that something big had happened, and immediately led three thousand guards of the Palace to attack Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu's camp in an attempt to kill them. Three thousand troops came to greet Yelu Chun's enthronement.
Yelu Chun led the army to fight with the army brought by Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu outside Nanjing City. The city of Nanjing, which had not seen war for a long time, suddenly burst into flames. Princess Xiao Nan of Wei County led the palace guards to bury the bodies of Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu and then committed suicide with a knife.
After Yelu Chun quickly quelled the soldiers brought by Xiao Dili and Xiao Yanliu, he ordered Xiao Qian, who was left in Nanjing, to garrison Nanjing. His concubine Xiao Puxiannu led 30,000 personal soldiers to go north to join Yelu Dashi to monitor Yelu Zhangnu and other court officials. The minister's actions.
Yelu Chun took Li Chuwen and hundreds of other people in light vehicles and carried the heads of Xiao Bili and Xiao Yanliu to the front of the Liao Emperor Yelu Yanxi's formation.
Knowing that the secret had been leaked, Yelv Zhangnu knew that his plan had failed, so he led a sneak attack on the capital with 50,000 men, burning, killing and looting all the way, committing all kinds of evil.
Fortunately, Yelu Dashi had made preparations in advance, and Xiannu Xiao Pu arrived in time with 30,000 soldiers from Nanjing City. After the two met outside Shangjing City, they led tens of thousands of troops to confront Yelu Zhangnu.
Yelv Zhangnu, who was worried about being attacked from two sides, retreated from Shangjing City after seizing countless treasures. Yelu Dashi and Xiao Puxiannu led an army of 30,000 to pursue them fiercely. After several small battles with Yelv Zhangnu, they were instigated by Yelu Zhangnu to rebel. The coalition forces formed by the refugees were heavily surrounded.
