back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 390 Indecision
After hearing this, Yelv Yixin was very disdainful.As a treacherous and loyal minister, comparing him with a foolish emperor uncle is simply an insult to a treacherous minister, okay?But in front of Yelu Hongji, Yelu Yixin did not dare to refute, and could only respectfully agree.

Seeing Yelu Yixin's appearance of agreeing immediately, without even thinking about it, Yelu Hongji knew that his words were in vain.Yelu Hongji's worries were also caused by the obedience and disobedience of his subordinates.Sometimes Yelu Hongji really wanted to be like that little emperor of Dashun, to cut through the mess with a sharp knife and wipe out all the traitors in the court.It's a pity that Liao and Dashun have different national conditions. If Yelu Hongji dared to do this, he would immediately betray his relatives and even die without a place to bury him.

The emperor of the Liao Kingdom did not have the same ruling power as the Dashun Emperor. Among the kings and nobles, they had the military power.You are going to kill others, so why should they respect you as the emperor?It's strange if you don't reverse it!I'm afraid those who dance the most are the courtiers.They were not favored when Yelu Hongji was in power, so they had no choice but to look forward to the new king's ascension, so that they could rise to the top by virtue of their meritorious service.

Sighing, he put the thought behind him and said slowly, "How many troops do you think Prime Minister Xiao needs to bring with him to go to the Northeast?"

In fact, Yelu Yixin and Xiao Xulie didn't deal with it very well.It's just that compared to Yelu Chongyuan, Xiao Xulie is not so annoying.This old fox is also a greedy person.Going to the Northeast, I received Yelu Zhongyuan's money from his business for many years. I'm afraid this old fox has no reason to refuse, right?

This move can severely hit Yelu Chongyuan. Who told him to commit suicide and return home in defeat under the city of Youzhou?To add insult to injury, Yelv Yixin was the most handy at it.Hearing this, Yelu Yixin said: "The Jurchens have always been ambitious and rebellious. Facing our Daliao rebel army, they often hide in deep mountains and old forests. If you don't pay attention, our Daliao will lose troops and generals. From this point of view , although the number of these Jurchens is small, they are extremely brave. If I send fewer warriors from Daliao, I may not be able to take advantage of it. According to my humble opinion, I have to send a hundred thousand troops, otherwise it will not be possible to suppress the rebellion. To be bitten by it..."

Hearing this, Yelu Hongji felt a little displeased.In his mind, Dashun is the only opponent of Liao Kingdom.When facing an enemy country whose territory is similar to his own, how could Yelu Hongji care about the mere birth of Jurchen!Isn't it just a group of monkeys living in the deep mountains and old forests, living a migratory life of half nomadic and half fishing and hunting, just like the bitterness before Khitan, what is worthy of attention.

This is like the people of Dashun, no matter how you look at it, the Liao Kingdom thinks they are countrymen.Because in the eyes of the people of Dashun, isn't it just a nomadic people? What is there to pay attention to?Dashun was orthodox in the Central Plains, with a highly developed civilization, so how could he look up to these barbarians who could only wield knives and guns?And in Yelu Hongji's mind, Jurchen is just like the Liao Kingdom in Dashun's eyes, there is an innate sense of superiority for some reason.

Hearing Yelu Yixin's words, Yelu Hongji frowned, and said: "Just a few thousand people in Nuzhen, I need a hundred thousand sons from Daliao to conquer? Yelu Yixin, did you drink a few thousand people last night?" Drinking, still not sober?"

Yeluyi smiled hard and said: "I am very sober. I have always been ambitious about giving birth to a girl, so I have to guard against it!" The Khitan people are the most typical minority regime, and they don't trust other ethnic groups other than their own, especially the women in the Northeast. real person.And Yelu Yixin is a typical Khitan, born with a deep wariness towards other ethnic groups.In his northern courtyard, Han slaves have no human rights at all. They come and go, and the hardest and dirtiest work is all done by Han Chinese.The other ethnic groups are slightly better, but the treatment is similar.The strange thing is that his slaves can accommodate Han people, but there is no Jurchen, which shows how much he dislikes the Jurchens.

Ironically, although Yelu Hongji hates Han people, he does not reject Han culture.Although after experiencing the culture of the Han people, the whole Khitan seems to have lost its spirit.But Yelu Hongji didn't take this matter to heart when he saw the warriors of the tribe with excellent martial arts skills.Even he is proficient in music and temperament and is good at calligraphy and painting. He loves poetry and Fu especially Tang poetry. His greatest hobby is to chant poems with wine with Han Confucian officials.He himself is dubbed the "Emperor of Confucianism" by the people of Dashun. Otherwise, how could he be interested in the Confucian classics of Sinology, and he has a deep understanding of ancient Chinese music, and he is good at it, and is praised by the people of Dashun What about Xiao Guanyin, the "Khitan Confucian woman"!

Yelu Hongji was not happy when he heard such admiration for the birth of Jurchen, but Yelu Yixin is his confidant, so he still has to give some face, so he frowned and said: "I'll think about this matter again, you just step back !"

Knowing Yelu Hongji's habits, he was indecisive when he said this, and asked to ask others for advice.Although Yelv Yixin was a treacherous minister, he was a treacherous minister who was loyal to his own interests.It is of no benefit to him to have a daughter, and it is in his own interest to get rid of it.He wasn't worried that others would dissuade Yelu Hongji, after all Jurchen and Khitan were mortal enemies.In the Liao Kingdom, most of them are pure Khitans.

Yelu Yixin took a deep breath, said: "Your Excellency, leave!" He left the Mingwang Tower.

The more Yelu Hongji thought about it, the more something was wrong, he knew the fact of having a daughter, the number of these wild monkeys was small, but the annoying little movements did not stop.But to send an army of [-], it would be a bit of a fuss.

Yelu Hongji thought about it for a while, but still couldn't make up his mind. Under his annoyance, he suddenly remembered a person and said, "Come on, let's drive on the Weidian Grassland!"

Weidian Grassland is the residence of the imperial tent cavalry.Among them is Xiao Feng, the number one warrior of Khitan. He is not only highly skilled in martial arts, but also familiar with military books. He is a rare leading general.About going to the Jurchens, it is best to ask Xiao Feng.

The emperor of Liao Kingdom went on tour, but it was much simpler than that of Emperor Dashun.As long as the guards led the way, the emperor himself rode a horse and swaggered across the street surrounded by a group of tent troops.Pedestrians who couldn't dodge were knocked down by the cavalry, and they deserved to be trampled to death. Who told you to block the emperor's holy car?Therefore, when living in Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, Khitan, when you go shopping in the streets, you must look around and listen to all directions.Otherwise, you don't even know who died at the hands of you.In the Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, I don’t know how many Khitan nobles were knocked down and trampled to death by their horses. At most, they will pay a sum of money, which is not enough to buy a coffin.At best, the sufferer would cry bitterly for his loved ones, but he dared not speak out.

Hearing the sound of hooves, like thunder, the pedestrians on the street dodged aside as if they were fired.The cavalry ran amok as if there was no one else, and made a mess of chickens and dogs jump on a well-kept street.The golden wolf flag inlaid in the center is particularly conspicuous.When passers-by saw it, they all understood that the emperor was traveling, either to hunt or to visit a courtier's residence.This is the cavalry that ordinary Liao people can't afford to offend. They were knocked down and they didn't even pay compensation.After the horse team passed by, smoke and dust rose everywhere.Pedestrians are used to this, they patted the dust off their bodies, and continued on their way.The hawker who does business on the street tidies up his stall and continues to do his business.
