Chapter 606: Return to Liao Kingdom

Hu Yan Ruizhu didn't say anything more. She knew that she had to give up the life of a happy life of revenge after following Chen Yuan, and should use her husband as the main point like an ordinary woman. Although she was full of sympathy for the fate of those Japanese women, she did not mention it along the way.

The fleet sailed with the wind and arrived in the Song Dynasty within half a month. The cargo that Chen Yuan plundered this time filled the thousands of tons of "raiders". When he was docked at the Bianjing Wharf, it really caused a huge sensation.

Whether it was this big ship or the cargo on the ship, it surprised the people of Bianjing. Han Qi's cargo shop had already received the news that hundreds of carriages were parked by the dock and were waiting to get off the ship.

This time he returned in triumph. In Chen Yuan's heart, the moment he cut off the head of the Emperor of Japan was even more accomplished than when he settled Li Yuanhao in Dangxiang. However, no one applauded his actions this time, including Ouyang Xiu, who had always had a good relationship with Chen Yuan, did not come to greet him.

They didn't know that they had already cut off the Suzaku Emperor. If they knew about this, they would have become the scum in the eyes of the literati and officials.

It doesn't matter, Chen Yuan doesn't care. As long as he can destroy the little ***, what's the point of being a scum for himself? Besides, those literati and officials have no other means except to criticize him. If Renzong did not touch himself, it would be useless to hate them.

Moreover, now I have control over the banks, and the development of many places depends on the banks to provide financial support for them. As well as the implementation of the new policy, I can use my own things. As long as I keep a little low-key, ease the impact of this matter, and help them do something to eliminate the fire, I should not completely collapse my image of having been operating for many years.

So he didn't plan to stay in Bianjing for more time when he came back. Now the guns of these scholars and officials were all very straight and waiting to shoot at him. Staying here must be a target for them.

After getting off the "Robber" number, Chen Yuan did not go anywhere. He went directly to the palace to ask Renzong to see Renzong and asked Renzong to approve him to go to Liao Kingdom to check the situation and see how the current situation in Liao Kingdom has developed and whether there is any article to do. At the same time, he sent Huyan Ruizhu back to the prince-consort's mansion to inform Yelu Luling to prepare. If Renzong nodded, he would leave immediately.

Renzong seemed to know Chen Yuan's idea. When Chen Yuan was asking for a meeting outside the palace gate, Renzong was having lunch break. He immediately got up from the bed and met in the study.

Chen Yuan first told about what happened in Japan, especially the last time he cut off the Emperor of Japan. The detailed process and his thoughts at that time were not explained in the memorial.

When Renzong saw the memorial saying that the Japanese people had gone back on their word and wanted to attack the Song army, he knew that there must be Chen Yuan's tricks in the middle. He was also very curious about this and asked in detail.

After Chen Yuan repeated the passage again and explained how much benefit it would be for the Song Dynasty to pacify Japan immediately, Renzong did not say anything to the Emperor of Japan who never came to the Song Dynasty to worship.

"What you did is a bit too much. You can go to Liao Kingdom first to avoid the limelight and not to confront those censors head-on. They have not yet let go of the private mobilization of the troops. You made such a fuss again. Haha, those censors have something to do this year."

When Renzong talked about the censor, he still had a smile on his face. This means that his attitude towards the censor had changed. Although he still let the censors speak and could listen, he was no longer as afraid as before.

Chen Yuan clasped his fists: "Yes, I will go to Liao Kingdom immediately and will not stay in Bianjing for a moment. Long live, General Di Qing's troops should have set foot on the *** now. I asked them to pacify the Japanese people in the south of the ***. As for whether to move north in the future, I think it's better to see the current situation of Liao Kingdom before making a decision."

Renzong agreed with this statement very much: "Well, you can grasp this measure. To be honest, now the Liao Kingdom is fighting, and I am not afraid of them. Shimei, after Xia Youyou and Li Shibin made actions in Western Xinjiang, Tubo and Uighurs sent people to fight Liao Kingdom with us. Also, Wang Lun did a good job in the north. I heard that he had gathered 8,000 cavalrymen and had a small victory in several battles. Many of the people who were driven to the north by the Liao Kingdom came back again to help them fight. The Liao people have now arranged 40,000 troops, but they still cannot calm the war."

This was really good news for Chen Yuan. He immediately clasped his fists and said, "Long live, Wang Lun's wife and children, and Dang Junzi's parents are all in the Song Dynasty. I suggest whether I can allocate some money in moderation and give them a title to An Wang Lun and others."

Renzong pondered for a moment: "Of course, I can have someone do this immediately, which is also considered as if I told Wang Lun that as long as he does well in the north, I will not lose money when I return to the Song Dynasty in the future."

Chen Yuan responded: "Long live the wisdom."

Renzong looked at him: "Shimei, a few days ago, I had sent Fan Chunyou to the Liao Kingdom to congratulate them on the ascension of the new emperor. So this time you go, I can't give you the identity of an envoy of the Song Dynasty. You have to be more careful."

When the Liao Kingdom sent people to the Song Dynasty, they would send people there immediately. This was a matter of etiquette. Renzong could not wait for himself to come back. There could not be two envoys in one thing, and Chen Yuan fully understood this.

"Fan Chunyou? Is it Mr. Fan's son?"

Renzong smiled: "Yes, although Fan Zhongyan has a stubborn temper, he is also a straightforward person. Most ministers like him in the court have arranged their children. Xia Shun's son is now in the Ministry of Personnel, and Fu Bi's two sons are also officials in the local area. Even Ouyang Xiu found a good job for his disciple named Su Shi. But my Fan Aiqing asked his son to study at home and take the imperial examinations in a regular manner. It is really a model for this dynasty."

Chen Yuan heard this and said, "Mr. Fan is so kind, otherwise all officials would not respect him so much."

Renzong said: "I really can't stand it anymore. Anyway, this time I just went to perform a ritual procedure, so I called his name. After I came back, I made arrangements for him and asked Fan Zhongyan to take on my favor, so I could say a few less words in the future."

Chen Yuan disagreed with this: "Long Live if you think so, you may have miscalculated it. I think Lord Fan will never swallow some of his thoughts in his stomach because of his son's affairs."

Renzong actually knew that Fan Zhongyan would not. He was considered an enlightened monarch. Although he was sometimes angry with the subjects who dared to speak out, he could tolerate them and even promoted such people who dared to say no to him.

He did not say this to Chen Yuan again, and waved his hand: "Okay, prepare for it and you can leave. It's better to have a quicker relationship with Liao Kingdom. To be honest, when I heard the news of Liao Xingzong's death, I felt very happy at first, but then I felt a sense of loss. I wanted to fight him again, but I couldn't have a chance again."

Chen Yuan received the order: "Long live and rest assured. If the Liao Kingdom's affairs are beneficial to us, we may be able to win in less than five years, and it will be a very easy war."

Renzong nodded: "Well, you go and do it. Remember this time when you go to Liao Kingdom, Fan Chunyou is still young. If there is something unexpected, he can't handle it well, you have to help him."

This is natural. If you don’t look at monks and Buddhas, the Han people always talk about friendship. Whether in their past or present lives, Chen Yuan always respects Fan Zhongyan’s character. If Fan Chunyou encounters difficulties, he will naturally help.

But Fan Chunyou's mission this time is very simple, and he may not have much chance of helping himself.

When he arrived in Liao Kingdom, he met Yelu Hongji and submitted his letter of state as a procedure. He said a few words on the scene and his mission was completed. If he had free time, he could also stroll around Yanjing.

When he came out of the palace, Han Qi had already prepared the carriage, and everyone who was going to Liao Kingdom was in the carriage.

Yelu Luling, Yelu Nianchen, Huyan Ruizhu, Qingyuan and Pang Xi.

Qingyuan didn't want to come. He is now from Tianbo Mansion. He hasn't done anything about fighting and killing in the world for three or four years. But Pang Xi knew that this trip might be risky, and it was really hard for him to protect Chen Yuan alone. He couldn't resist Pang Xi's invitation, and he had a little unwilling to be lonely. Qingyuan was finally pulled over by Pang Xi.

There are also more than 20 Jurchen guards in Tie'anli. This time, he took them to the Liao Kingdom. If the situation is OK, Chen Yuan would let these people go.

In his concept, those with ability should conquer the world and force them to trap them by their side. If they are unhappy, they will have fewer helpers.

Chen Yuan greeted everyone, stepped onto the carriage and said, "Hurry, within ten days, we must arrive in Yanjing."

When Chen Yuan walked into the carriage and saw Yelu Luling, he was stunned for a moment. After not seeing Yelu Luling for such a long time, he looked much thinner. His bags were very swollen. He knew at a glance that it was caused by poor sleep and long-term tears.

Chen Yuan could fully understand her mood. She was a princess of the Liao Kingdom, but she lived in the Song Dynasty. When she made this choice, it meant that she gave up her identity as a princess.

The princess' identity can be given up, but how could she let go of her feelings for the Liao Kingdom and Liao Xingzong? Liao Xingzong died, and she couldn't even go back and take a look. The pain can be imagined.

She is Chen Shimei's wife now. The Song Dynasty would not let her go as soon as she says, and the Liao Kingdom would not let her come as soon as she says. If Chen Yuan hadn't taken her back, she wouldn't even have the chance to kowtow at the grave of Liao Xingzong in her life.

This is the status of women, the status of women in the Song Dynasty.

Although Chen Yuan respects his wife very much and is often bullied by them at home, when he goes out, people will still say, "Look, that is Chen Shimei's wife." Even with Zhao Yi, the same is true for him: "Look, that is the princess of Chen's prince-mah family."

Chen Yuan felt a little distressed when he looked at Yelu Luling's appearance. He sat beside her and hugged her gently: "Don't be sad, we will go to Yanjing immediately. Wherever we go, we will kowtow to your father and see what Yanjing is doing now, and then we will come back, okay?"

Yelu Luling knew that Chen Yuan must have gone to find out the truth of the Liao Kingdom this time. But she didn't care about these things. The two countries had a relationship. After one country had an accident, the other went to see the situation. Even if Chen Yuan didn't do it, there would be other Song people to do it. As long as he could kowtow a few times in front of his father's grave, Yelu Luling wouldn't force anything.

She nodded in Chen Yuan's arms: "Okay, I'll listen to you, my husband, it's best if you have time to stay for a few more days. I miss my mother very much."
