Fu Song

Luo Song died.

LOL!
I laughed wildly when I heard that Yeluzhen Jianghuai was defeated, hundreds of thousands of Liao troops and their servants suffered heavy losses, and fled in embarrassment; The family joined hands with dozens of wealthy families in the Eastern Jing area to raise their flags against the Liao Dynasty and laughed wildly when they welcomed the Song army; when they heard that Yelu Longxu quickly retreated, leaving Qu Zhen and the so-called Song King Zhao Suo both dead in battle Laugh wildly.

He laughed himself to death!
His laughter made countless Liao people who got the news at the same time extremely angry. If it wasn't because when the Empress Dowager Chengtian set off for Daming Mansion, she left him a team of personal guards from the Shan army to protect him, Luo Song would have been outraged Liao officials tore into pieces, so as to vent their anger.

The composition of the Shan army is very complicated. They are death row prisoners, criminals, and horse thieves. Yelumin was ordered by Xiao Chuo to form a team with outstanding combat effectiveness.

Therefore, whether they are good for the Liao State or the Song State, they have no joy or anger. They are only loyal to one person, and that is the Empress Dowager Chengtian.

Since the Queen Mother gave them the order to protect the old man Luo Song, they must perform this task perfectly and not let the old man be killed.

It's not their fault that Luo Song died laughing now.

So even if it is a corpse, they are still carrying out the order of protection.

A few days after Luo Song's death, Xiao Chuo returned to Xijin Mansion.

Along with her came back Sun Pu and his [-] subordinate Shan army.

The Xijin Mansion immediately became quiet.

Standing outside the small courtyard where Luo Song lived temporarily, Xiao Chuo couldn't laugh or cry.

Because although the old man is dead, the whole small courtyard is full of lights and beams of joy. When I first came here, I could vaguely hear some opera troupe singing. Of course, now these actors are kneeling on the ground one by one, trembling .

"Where does the old man sing?" Looking at Luo Yi, the eldest son of Luo, Xiao Chuo asked with a straight face. "Is this your idea? The old man didn't have time to order and arrange these, right?"

If it was really Luo Yi's fault, Xiao Chuo didn't mind making him suffer.

"Grandpa gave this order before he was alive." Luo Yi said seriously: "If the frontline Daliao is defeated and he dies, it will be a happy funeral, and it should be handled as a happy event."

Xiao Chuo shook his head and walked to the coffin.

Light the three pillars of fragrant incense, raise it over the forehead, bow three times, and then insert the incense into the incense burner.

Luo Yi also followed the etiquette and knelt down beside the spirit to thank him.

"The old man once told me that if he dies one day, he hopes to be buried in his hometown. You can pack up and send the old man's body home!"

"Thank you, Queen Mother!" Luo Yi was overjoyed. Originally, he thought it was something that he could not count on, but now Xiao Chuo said it lightly.

For Xiao Chuo, this is just a sentence, but for Luo Song, it means returning to the roots of fallen leaves, and for his Luo Yi family, it means getting out of the cage, flying eagles into the sky, and diving into the deep sea.

"Old man, over the years, you have helped me manage the government, reform the bureaucracy, and eliminate the redundant and the inferior. You clearly know that there are great hidden dangers in me forcibly pinching the Han and Khitan together and forcibly implementing a high degree of centralization. But you work harder than me; I want to gather wealth and fight the Song Dynasty ahead of time, and you help me extort money, causing the whole Daliao to complain. Now, you finally got what you want, and I lost! But, I would like to accept the bet , it’s nothing special.”

Luo Yi got up and said: "Queen Mother, Grandpa also told me something about the things I did in Liao Kingdom these years. I wonder if Queen Mother wants to hear it!"

"Of course I want to hear it! Did the old man bury me?"

"Don't dare!" Luo Yi shook his head and said, "Grandpa said, if you win this gambling fight, your reputation will reach an unprecedented peak. To be eclipsed, so those hidden dangers are no longer hidden dangers. Liao wins and Song loses. On this continent, there will be a unified empire, a unified empire that is bigger than Qin, Han and Tang. And After these reforms, the Sinicized Liao Kingdom will inevitably become a part of the Chinese inheritance. If the barbarians enter China, the Chinese will come, so his hard work was not in vain."

Xiao Chuo raised his eyebrows: "If I fail, these hidden dangers will inevitably erupt one by one, and the Daliao will inevitably be on the verge of collapse. Then, during the Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty, it is very likely that the momentum will be broken. In this way, a super empire will also be born. Neither?"

"Exactly!" Luo Yi smiled and said, "No matter who wins or loses, Grandpa will have no regrets. He said that these years are the most fulfilling years of his life. Of course, Da Song won, Take his joy to a higher level."

Xiao Chuo was silent for a long time, reached out to pick up a jug of wine, tilted his neck, drank a few gulps, then smashed the jug in front of the spirit, turned and strode away.

In fact, she hated Luo Song.

This hatred has not lessened due to the passage of time.

Back then, Luo Song, who was the second assistant of the Political Affairs Hall of the Great Song Dynasty, was able to prevent her from being sent away.

If he insisted on protecting Xiao Chuo, he would be able to do it.

Unfortunately, Luo Song backed down.

There is a side for the country, but more, it is for Luo Gang!

At that time, the Xiao family had become rebels, Xiao Yu and his wife died tragically, Xiao Ding and Xiao Changqing raised the flag of rebellion, Xiao Cheng and Xiao Chongwen disappeared, no one thought that the Xiao family would have a comeback one day.

There is nothing wrong with an old father thinking about his son's future and standing on his side.

But because of this incident, a woman completely embarked on another path of no return.

None of the instigators of that year came to a good end.

Cui Ang was chopped to pieces by Yelumin all night.

People like Xia Jie and Chen Shu committed suicide on the road of Emperor Song's descent. Even if they died, the hat of a weak administration that led to the subjugation of the Song Dynasty would be firmly on their heads. I will not show mercy just because they died for their country in the end.

As for the Zhao family father and son, it was even worse.

The entire imperial family was taken captive by Xiao Chuo to the Liao Kingdom and imprisoned in the City of the Five Kingdoms. It was difficult to describe in words what happened. Zhao Jing and Zhao Suo, as one of the most noble people in the world, not only His reputation was ruined, and his death was extremely unbearable.

As for Luo Song, Xiao Chuo also wanted to ruin his reputation.

It's just that because of Luo Gang, the methods she adopted were more subtle.

If Xiao Chuo still has some warmth towards the one from the Luo family, Luo Gang is the only one.

That muddy boy was the last bit of warmth in Xiao Chuo's heart.

Now it seems that this old man probably guessed his own thoughts, but he probably doesn't care!

Luo Song's coffin was dressed in red and green, and left Xijin mansion with drums, drums and locks.

Holding the badge of the Empress Dowager Chengtian in his hand, and the escort of the Shan army, naturally no one would bother him along the way.If it wasn't for this person's special status, and the defeat on the front line, maybe the officials along the line would have to sacrifice on the road to please the Empress Dowager Chengtian!

The news of Yeluzhen's assassination outside Tokyo finally reached Xijin Mansion.

Sun Chun knelt down in front of Xiao Chuo, his face darkened.

The death of Yeluzhen means that internal strife in Daliao will be inevitable.

And he, as the top person in charge of the school affairs office, will inevitably bear the greatest responsibility in this matter.

"Yelu Zhen was really killed by Yelu Longxu?" Xiao Chuo looked very calm.

"Judging from all the evidence, Yelu Longxu did it!" Sun Chun said. "Although he made a lot of cover-ups, these cover-ups prove that these things are done by him."

Flipping through the report on this matter submitted by Sun Chun, Xiao Chuo sighed: "It doesn't matter if it is true, because even if Yeluzhen was not killed by him, Yelu Chengcai must die by his hands." Up."

"Yes! The soldiers and horses sent by Yelu Longxu received his urgent military order on the way, and the whole army turned back. It was because of this order that the [-] troops led by Yelu Chengcai were defeated by the Baiyu Army. Surround and annihilate!" Sun Chun said angrily: "Queen Mother, the evidence of the crime is convincing, please order Yelu Longxu to be executed."

"That guy is in the army, can he be punished?" Xiao Chuo laughed: "Do you know much about this matter?"

"Queen Mother, I can't hide it. Many of Yeluzhen's close generals know about this matter. Now, his lieutenants are gathering troops in the Daming Mansion to avenge Yeluzhen's nun!" Sun Chun said: "Yelu Longxu Don't even think about stepping into Hebei Road. Although he still has tens of thousands of troops under his command, although Yelu Bianji of Zhending Mansion still has [-] leather troops, but Queen Mother, as long as your will arrives, I believe that these troops will surely There is no fighting intention, and you can break it with a wave of your hand!"

"How can this matter be so simple?" Xiao Chuo said: "Behind Yelu Longxu, there is a more powerful force, and Yeluzhen and his subordinates have never been my direct descendants, so ah, don't Seeing how they are screaming now, the Daming Mansion will definitely calm down next, and they will even join forces with Yelu Longxu."

"How could this be?"

"Why not?" Xiao Chuo closed the report and put it on the side of the desk: "Don't forget, Daliao still has an emperor!"

"You mean the emperor will show up?" Sun Chun was a little incredulous: "Your Majesty has always been very filial to you!"

Xiao Chuo smiled and said: "Since ancient times, the royal family has no family ties. Thinking about it, Ah Xian is already on his way to Xijin Mansion!"

Sun Chun's face changed: "Is this trying to force the palace? They probably forgot that there are still ten thousand soldiers belonging to Shan, Zhongjing has five thousand heavy cavalry of Guo Xie, and the firearms battalion under the command of Brother Murong! Queen Mother, I will immediately send someone to the northwest to find King Zhenbei!"

"There is no need for you to find King Zhenbei!" Xiao Chuo waved his hand and said, "I initiated the Southern Expedition all by myself. Now that it has failed, someone must take responsibility. This person can only be me. !"

"So what? Daliao has no future without a queen mother! It will only lose quickly!"

"That's your opinion! Or someone else thinks they'd do better without me!"

"Think beautifully!"

"Okay, Sun Chun, you can go down and rest for two days first! It's no big deal, even if it's really a palace, what can I do? How to do it depends on my mood!" Xiao Chuo didn't take it seriously: "It's just I'm really not interested right now! It's really boring!"

Sun Chun feigned astonishment, and left Xiao Chuo's bedroom.

What does it mean to be uninterested? It's boring!

In his image, the queen mother is the kind of person who gets more excited when she is in a difficult situation.

In the past ten years, she has experienced great risks several times, but the queen mother has become more and more courageous. In the end, her enemies have all fallen.

Except this time.

However, in Sun Chun's opinion, even if the two countries are at war, even such a defeat is far from losing their fighting spirit!Look at the state of Song, the capital was wiped out, but now it is alive again, it seems that Xianyu is about to turn around!

Daming House.

A grand funeral is being held.

When Sun Chun left Tokyo, he took Yeluzhen's remnant body with him. In fact, there was nothing left except a head.Then he sent someone to send it to Daming Mansion and handed it over to Yeluzhen's son Yelu Yixin.

Yelu Yixin had no choice but to carve a body for his Lao Tzu out of wood, and then put his head on it.

Although he was kneeling in front of the coffin in sackcloth and filial piety, he was completely in armor with a knife on his waist, but he seemed out of tune with sadness, and only anger and unwillingness permeated the entire scene.

Every person who came to pay homage was dressed in almost the same attire as Yelu Yixin, wearing armor inside and wearing filial piety outside. After each person put a stick of incense in front of the spirit, he would cut his own palm and swear his blood as an oath. Zhennan Wang took revenge.

Right now, the army fleeing from Jianghuai has accumulated about 5 people.

Although it is not the same as the 30 people at the time of the expedition, as Yeluzhen expected, under such an occasion, all the troops that can escape in an organized manner are the mainstay of Daliao. In, then, Daliao must still be there.

As for the other miscellaneous troops and servants, it would be better if they could escape, and it didn't matter if they couldn't.

After all, the next Liao Kingdom will usher in a difficult period, and fewer people who eat rice can also save a lot of money and food.

The cries of vengeance grew louder,

The roar of killing Yelu Longxu could be clearly heard.

This made some people hidden in the Daming Mansion overjoyed.

The seeds of hatred are taking root and growing vigorously inside and outside the Daming Mansion.

Until a few people appeared before Yeluzhen's coffin.

The visitor handed a secret letter to Yelu Yixin.

It was a blood book.

What shocked Yelu Yixin even more was that the signature of the blood book was Yeluxian, Emperor of the Daliao Dynasty.

After reading the long letter written in blood from his old friend today, Yelu Yixin let out a long sigh, took off his armor, and threw away his saber.

A few days later, Yelu Longxu entered the Daming Mansion alone with only a few guards.

This person's body shape is too special, as long as he appears, everyone will recognize it.
