back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 393
Seeing Xiao Feng like this, Yelu Hongji also felt his blood boil.Although he was nicknamed the "Emperor of Confucianism" by the Han people in the south, the blood of the Khitan people still flows in his body.Advocating force is the basis for the Khitan people to establish a country.As the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, how could Yelu Hongji forget his roots?
Although he is proficient in rhythm, good at calligraphy and painting, and fond of poetry and poetry, Yelu Hongji also has certain attainments in riding and shooting.Even in hand-to-hand combat on horseback, he also has a saber kung fu.Hearing Xiao Feng's willingness to be the vanguard, Yelu Hongji shouted loudly: "Okay, I am the number one warrior of Khitan with extraordinary bearing! When I raise troops in the future, I will definitely send you as the vanguard, so that I can teach those Jurchens what a real warrior is! "

Xiao Feng said: "Your Majesty's expectation will definitely be fulfilled! It's just that Xiao Feng will not take the imperial tent cavalry with him, after all the imperial tent cavalry is to protect His Majesty. Xiao Feng only needs [-] palace tent troops, and he can really kill his birth daughter! "

Yelu Hongji smiled and said: "There is no need to rush, didn't you just say that it is not suitable to go out in winter? I thought, I will wait until the spring of next year to launch an army crusade. When the ice and snow melt, even if those Jurchens hide in the deep mountains and old forests, there will be no danger." There is a place to hide!"

Xiao Feng hesitated to speak, he had seen dense forests before, and knew how difficult it is to make a living there.But Yelu Hongji has been running on the grassland all his life, and all he saw was sparse bushes. Where has he seen real deep mountains and old forests?Xiao Feng wouldn't tell him the hardships and dangers, as long as he got the battle achievements.

The matter on Yelu Hongji's mind was over, his interest was getting higher and higher, he suddenly said: "Xiao Feng, I haven't hunted for a long time, how about you go hunting with me today?"

Xiao Feng frowned and said: "Your Majesty, there are not many prey on this reed field. If you want to hunt, you have to ride your horse for another hundred and eighty miles. It's already past noon, every time you go back and forth, you have to hunt in the starry night." You can't return. In the dark night, there are many dangers, and your majesty is a body of gold, so it is not suitable to take risks!"

Yelu Hongji got a little annoyed, and said: "Who doesn't know that this hundreds of miles is the defense range of your royal tents and cavalry, who dare not have eyes? I have your protection, if something happens again, it is obviously your usual Incompetent!"

Seeing that Yelu Hongji was determined to go hunting, Xiao Feng had no choice but to follow orders: "Xiao Feng received the order, now go back and order the royal tent cavalry to follow His Majesty..."

Yelu Hongji stopped him: "Wait!"

Xiao Feng reined in the horse's head, turned the horse's head around, waiting for Yelu Hongji's order. "I just don't want so many people to follow, how boring is it to hunt like that? Just you people will do, if more than a hundred people can't protect me, you should be beheaded too!"

Xiao Feng bit the bullet and said: "But Your Majesty, packs of wild wolves come and go on this grassland, especially at night..."

Yelu Hongji laughed loudly and said, "I, the Khitan, claim to be the descendants of wolves. When I see wild wolves, I treat them like my own family. We are afraid of what they will do! What's more, we still have bows, arrows, knives and guns, so what can we do if wild wolves come?" ? Go ahead, I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of? Xiao Feng, especially you, as the number one warrior of Khitan, don't you have the guts to do it?"

Xiao Feng also became ruthless, and said: "I, Xiao Feng, am not afraid of anything, I will definitely protect His Majesty well!"

Yelu Hongji smiled and said: "Okay! This is the spirit of the first Khitan warrior! Drive!!!" After saying that, Yelu Hongji rode his horse and galloped deep into the grassland.The palace tent army and Xiao Feng behind him also quickly followed.

In Linhuang Mansion, Yelu Chongyuan received a secret report and murmured: "Yelu Hongji is out of the city, what is he doing out of the city at this time?"

Yelu Nelugu smiled and said: "What else can I do, my cousin is in a bad mood, so I went hunting outside the city to relax!"

Yelu Zhongyuan didn't think it was just that, in fact, none of them guessed wrong.Yelu Hongji's original intention was to go to Xiao Feng and listen to the opinions of this number one Khitan warrior.Later, the interest came, and I did go hunting.

It's just that these two people who wanted to usurp the throne never imagined that Yelu Hongji would dare to be so bold, with only two hundred riders beside him, he dared to stay a hundred miles away from Linhuang Mansion.If he had learned the news in advance and quietly dispatched a team of ten thousand people, Yelu Hongji would have difficulty flying even with wings.And their habitual thinking habitually believes that in Linhuang Mansion, there are the three most powerful Khitan troops, the Palace Tent Army, the Guards and the Royal Tent Guards, and it is impossible to rebel in Linhuang Mansion.Unless more than half of the 40 palace tent troops, [-] guards and [-] royal tent cavalry are transferred away, they will have a chance.

When they learned that Yelu Hongji really brought 200 people to hunt in the future, they beat their chests and stamped their feet, wishing they could slap themselves a few times.This is an opportunity that can't be met, and when they want to encounter such an opportunity in the future, when will they have to wait for it to be missed by themselves, who is to blame?
But what they are taking at the moment is a seemingly stable path - to win over the courtiers.Previously, Yelu Zhongyuan was too domineering and ignored the ministers of the DPRK and China, so that the relationship with the ministers of the DPRK and China was very bad.Those who don't fight against each other don't have a good impression of their father and son.If you want to usurp the throne and seize power, without the support of the courtiers, it will be difficult to move an inch.Don't say anything, even the news from the DPRK, their father and son know it very late.

If you want to change this situation, you must start to deliberately get close to the courtiers, and it is best to get their handles or something.While Yelu Hongji was out of Linhuang Mansion, Yelu Chongyuan summoned Yelu Nelugu to carry out his idea.

Yelunelugu said puzzledly: "Father, which of these courtiers is a good thing? Why do we want to curry favor with them? You are a majestic uncle, the commander-in-chief of soldiers and horses! What are they from..."

Yelu Zhongyuan hates iron but not steel. This idiot son has power ambitions but no political means. He can only use some clever tricks.With such a disposition, it is only a lie that he can accomplish things on his own.Yelu Chongyuan patiently explained: "Although these courtiers are not important officials, they control important positions in the court. We have a lot of enemies with the important officials in the court. If we can't even win these people, there are still people in the court. Who will support us? There are many people in Weifu's hands. From now on, if you want to visit with Weifu, you must keep these people in our hands, so that the big things will go smoothly. Do you understand? "

Yelu Nerugu still didn't understand, thought for a while and said, "These people are not important ministers, so what's the use of them?"

"What my father wants is information about Yelu Hongji, information! Do you understand, if my father hadn't bought a eunuch in the court, the news of Yelu Hongji leaving the palace today, I am afraid that tomorrow, you and I will still be ignorant!" There was a hint of anger on Yelu Chongyuan's face.

Seeing that Yelu Zhongyuan was going to get angry, even the thick and thick Yelu Nelugu didn't dare to offend him, and quickly said: "Father, I understand, I'm going to prepare a big gift and come to visit..."
