Chapter 115 The princess is here

Yelu Niegulu flashed out and shouted, "Yelu Shubao! Aren't you going to kill me? Come out and speak!"

The soldiers on the opposite side really made a way out. A horse ran out "ticked" and the figure of a knight appeared in everyone's eyes. Chen Yuan let out a long sigh. Just as he was about to shout for action, the knight suddenly let out a woman's cry: "Brother Jiu, is it you?"

Chen Yuan was stunned, and Yelu Niegulu hurriedly pressed Pang Xi beside him who was about to leap: "Don't panic! Your own people!"

This sentence made the tension in the entire team disappear in an instant.

Chen Yuan realized at this time that although it was early winter, his clothes were all wet. The calmness and courage just now were gone, and he sat on the ground without thinking about getting up again.

A group of people in front approached a little, and then everyone found that their armor was distinctive, and the knights looked strong. From their equipment and weapons, they could see that these were definitely regular soldiers of the Liao Kingdom.

A female general in the lead was holding a spear that was ten feet long and wearing a blue hood, so she couldn't see her appearance clearly.

Hu Jing hurriedly helped Chen Yuan up: "Brother Chen, are you okay?"

Chen Yuan shook his head and wanted to stand up, but he couldn't stand firm. He waved his hand and wanted to tell Hu Jing that he was fine, but his chest seemed to be blocked and he couldn't say a word.

"He's fine, give him some water." The female knight was speaking. After hearing this, Hu Jing immediately took the water bag and put it next to Chen Yuan's mouth. After a few sips, the feeling of blockage on his chest disappeared immediately. After Chen Yuan adjusted his breathing, he finally felt comfortable.

"Brother Jiu, are you injured?" The female knight was very concerned about Yelu Niegulu's injury.

Yelu Neglu shook his head and said that he was fine: "How do you know I'm here?"

The female knight looked at his face and finally smiled and said, "It's good that it's okay. My father asked me to pick you up. He knew that Yelu Ren was going to be bad for you first, so he asked me to come with the guards. On the way, I met a caravan. They told me that you had escaped along the river with some people, so I chased you down the river, but fortunately I was catching up with you."

She said here, taking the hood from her head, her black hair fell like a waterfall, and the torches shone on her face. Chen Yuan saw a charming melon-shaped face, looking like a sixteen or seventeen years old, with big eyes, flashing spirituality, and a generous expression, showing the bold beauty of a woman in the north.

Yelu Negulu said, "These are some of my friends who met on the way. If they hadn't helped, I would have died long ago."

Speaking of this, he turned his head and introduced to Chen Yuan: "Brother Chen, this is my emperor sister and is also the princess of Liao Kingdom today."

Chen Yuan jumped up from the ground, ran up a few steps, and excitedly stretched out his hands: "Oh? Princess? Lucky for you!"

Chen Yuan had just moved closer to the princess, and suddenly two spears reached out from the side to block his way forward. Two big-shouldered guys stared at him fiercely. The expression clearly meant that if Chen Yuan took another step forward, they would kill people immediately.

Chen Yuan was awakened by these two spears, and then he remembered that his greeting etiquette seemed to be ahead of time. He immediately coughed, put away the look of a wolf on his face as if he saw a sheep, and bent down ninety degrees: "Little man Chen Shimei, have seen the princess!"

Obviously, Chen Yuan's actions just now made the princess look down on him, so the princess ignored him and walked straight to Yelu Niegulu: "Brother Jiu, I received news from the military camp the day before yesterday that you, Wen Tong, conspired with the Song army, killed three thousand soldiers and horses under Xiao Yuanqiu. Is there anything wrong?"

Yelu Niegulu nodded: "Yes, if I don't do this, I'm dead now."

The princess's voice was a little uneasy: "It's true, I'm afraid it's a bit troublesome to go back."

Yelu Niegulu smiled and said, "It's a bit troublesome to go back, it's better than not going back. Don't worry, I have a way to solve it."

The princess nodded: "When I came, Yelu Renxian and others had forced their father to make Hong Ji the crown prince."

Yelu Neglu said coldly: "Don't worry, by the way, they want to make Hongji the crown prince. What did the prince say? What did Hongji himself say?"

The princess shook her head: "The father disagrees, Hong Ji can't do it. After Hong Ji heard that those people wanted to make him the prince, she was so scared that she hid in the palace for several months and did not dare to come out."

Yelu Niegulu sighed: "He is so cowardly. He really didn't expect that the emperor and uncle were so powerful that Hong Ji was so masculine."

The princess laughed: "If my brother is masculine, how could my father let you sit down?"

This sentence says Yelu Niegulu's heart is gone, and he can't find a way to answer for a moment. Instead, the princess said generously: "Brother Jiu, we are all our own people. We grew up together. You have always taken good care of me and Hong Ji. I believe that if you become the emperor in the future, you will not treat us badly."

Yelu Negulu nodded immediately: "The uncle trusts me so much, and the emperor supports me with all his strength. If I forget these, what kind of face will I have to live in this world? Don't worry, after I become the emperor, you can tell me what you want!"

The princess looked a little dazed: "Brother Jiu, just take care of Hong Ji. I might be leaving."

Yelu Niegulu looked at her: "Oh? Why do you say that?"

A sad smile appeared on the corner of the princess' mouth: "The Dangxiang people sent an envoy to negotiate with their father. In order to buy time for reform for the Liao Dynasty and to fight with the Dangxiang people in the Song Dynasty, the father has promised to betroth me to Li Yuanhao. When the negotiations are over, I will follow the Dangxiang people to Xixia, and I may never see Brother Jiu in my life."

Yelu Niegulu's eyes suddenly became extremely terrifying. He stared at the princess' face and it took him a long time to return to normal color.

Chen Yuan couldn't help but feel very regretful when he heard this. In his imagination, people like Li Yuanhao who had built a country through martial arts were mostly bold and unrestrained. When he thought that the beautiful princess in front of him was actually pressed by the beast-like man, he was immediately worthless.

A woman like this should be suppressed by herself!

"Cough cough!" A deliberate cough came from behind. Chen Yuan turned around and saw that Hu Jing had already looked bad.

Chen Yuan ignored her. In Chen Yuan's mind, no matter how much shade a big tree has, how could he give up the entire forest for her?

Besides, you are sure to look at Di Qing, so don’t I be allowed to look at the princess?

"Ahem!" The voice became louder again. Chen Yuan thought about it and would rather go back to comfort him. So he turned around and ran to Hu Jing: "What? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Hu Jing's face looked as ugly as Chen Yuan in Wentong's military camp that day: "I thought you really couldn't stand up, why did he take off his head hood and run faster than me?"

Chen Yuan smiled embarrassedly and said, "Say hello? After all, this is the minimum politeness."

Hu Jing sneered: "Why didn't I see Pang Xi and go to be polite to them?"

Chen Yuan deliberately pretended to be a little angry: "Don't make trouble unreasonable, okay? I'm the shopkeeper, I won't let Pang Xi go? Okay, he's a princess, and he's going to marry Li Yuanhao soon. I just have some ideas, and I can just take a look at him. Don't be angry."

Hu Jing thought about it, and his heart suddenly calmed down.

Yelu Niegulu quietly pointed at Chen Yuan and said to the princess: "This person is very talented and intelligent. If he can use it for me, he will not worry about major events. The emperor is more polite to him on the road."

The princess looked at Chen Yuan and whispered: "Brother Jiu likes him, so she orders him to help you."

Yelu Niegulu smiled and said, "How is that easy? Let me tell you, the emperor girl, everyone who comes to seek official positions is mediocre. And some truly useful people don't care whether they are officials or not, so we have to find a way to find them."

The princess chuckled: "No wonder the father valued the prince so much, and the younger sister received the teachings."

Speaking of this, Yelu Niegulu suddenly amplified his voice and said, "Brother Chen, why did you run over? We still have some things to discuss with you."

Chen Yuan patted Hu Jing's hand: "I'll go over and don't make trouble anymore, have you heard?"

Hu Jing nodded unwillingly.

Chen Yuan ran to Yelu Niegulu: "I thought you were going to say something confidential, so I'll avoid it first."

Yelu Niegulu smiled softly: "Brother Chen, it's okay to listen to it. This is well-known in Daliao and will not cause you any trouble."

If you are not curious, it is fake. And knowing more about the Liao Kingdom will be very helpful for whether you can complete this task. Maybe if you use a piece of information well, things will become very simple.

Yelu Negulu said: "My Great Liao has now entered a critical moment. The emperor's uncle strives to learn from the Song Dynasty and improve our government and economy. This is a wise move. Only those corrupt people in Yelu Renxian still have the banner of following the legacy of their ancestors. I hope we will continue to live our previous lives."

Chen Yuan immediately said: "The reforms of all dynasties have been clearing the way with blood. The struggle between those who want to reform and those who are conservative will inevitably be cruel."

Yelu Niegulu nodded and said, "Well, Brother Chen is right. When I go back this time, my uncle is about to show up with those people. I think as Brother Chen said, there are always people who want to dry up the blood."

The princess glanced at Chen Yuan at this time, and then said, "Actually, a month ago, the father had already made a hint. He issued a cross-marriage order to allow the Khitans to marry Han people. After marriage, the children belong to the Khitan people. Our surnames no longer simply use the Xiao surname and Yelu, the two left by our ancestors. But Yelu Renxian and others obeyed the instructions of their fathers."

From their conversation, Chen Yuan learned something very important. The court battles in the Liao Kingdom were not inferior to those of the Song Dynasty, but were more intense. Because their emperors were already involved.

The envoy of the Dangxiang people has arrived in Yanjing. Have Song Qi and the others arrived?

Chen Yuan didn't know, nor did the princess know. At least the envoy of the Song Dynasty had not arrived yet when she left.

From this point of view, it can be seen that in intelligence work, the gentlemen led by Xia Shu are far less than those of villains like Lu Yijian.

In fact, diplomacy is also a battlefield. In this contest, the Song Dynasty had already lost at the starting line.

And can I complete the task assigned by Lu Yijian?

Chen Yuan didn't know either. He just knew very well now that there was a large number of horse thieves tracking their whereabouts. It was a problem whether they could go to Yanjing alive.

Of course, the princess brought these elite Liao Kingdom to show some chips in their hands. She could continue playing this game.

Yelu Niegulu looked at Chen Yuan and asked, "Brother Chen, what do you think of our emperor's reform?"

This is a way to imitate Emperor Wen of Wei. It is indeed a more suitable way for ethnic minorities to invade the Han people. What's more, those Song people who were more determined to resist have almost been killed by the Liao people.

Chen Yuan nodded and said, "It's indeed very wise. If you succeed, the situation in Liao Kingdom will change immediately. However, Ninth Prince, we are facing a situation that is still very dangerous. Can you go back and complete your career and whether I can do my business, it's really not sure. I think we should think about how to deal with the difficulties in front of us."

Yelu Niegulu agreed very much: "Well, Brother Chen is saying, "Imperial Sister, you and Brother Chen will work closely together in the future. Now we can only overcome the difficulties by working together."
