Chapter 679
If the Khitans themselves were not united and Yelu Niegulu and Xiao Tali had to continue fighting, they might even have no pasture.
Xiao Tali felt that he had nothing but the children in his hands: "Everyone, you are all ministers trusted by the late emperor. Hong Ji is now in the hands of the Song people. You don't think about how to get Hong Ji back, but you want to welcome Yelu Niegulu's rebellion. Are you worthy of the late emperor?"
Yelu Han Bayi clasped his fists: "The Queen Mother misunderstood. We asked Yelu Niegulu to come back, just to clarify the problem. As for you saying that he is a rebellious, the old minister would not agree. If Lao Jiu really wanted to rebel, his army would have already come. No one can stop him now."
Hou Shi followed and agreed: "The old minister also thought this was the case. Lao Jiu was just asking Yelu Zongyuan's death. In fact, it cannot be blamed for this. Not only Lao Jiu, but also Ministers, etc., also have many doubts about this. I hope the Queen Mother can explain it clearly."
As they sang and reconciled, Xiao Ta's hands were trembling. If Yelu Niegulu really came back to confront each other, then everything would be over
"Everyone, Lord Zhang Li has negotiated with the Song people in the Song Dynasty. He will be able to return soon. Can't you wait until the emperor comes back and let them solve the problem? Do you have to let me, the Taoist family, go out and discuss with Yelu Niegulu? I am humiliating for the first time, where can you see your face?"
"Don't worry, Empress Dowager, you are the Empress Dowager of our Daliao. If you have not made any mistakes, then Lao Jiu will be disrespectful to you. The old minister will fight for this life and be the guardian of the Empress Dowager."
Xiao Tali's heart is now cold. She finally understands one thing, that is, all strategies must be protected by strong strength to proceed smoothly.
It is easy to lie, but when the other party doesn't believe you and doesn't give you a chance to speak, how do you lie? In the past, people have to listen to what you say, so you can always deceive them. Now, no matter whether the words you say are true or false, and the other party is unmoved, how can you deceive others?
No matter what Xiao Talis said, these ministers of the Liao Kingdom took a look and asked Yelu Niegulu to come back.
This seems more important to them than letting Yelu Hongji come back. Yelu Hongji is just an emperor, and anyone who has the ability can do it, but Yelu Negulu has an army of 400,000, and these 400,000 people can ensure that the remaining grassland in the Liao Kingdom still belongs to the Khitan.
Xiao Tat walked out of the court with his child in his arms, without giving any reply to these ministers, as he agreed or objected, and she did not express her opinion.
Because she knew very well that when she lost the protection of imperial power, she was just an NV person, and these rebellious men would not let themselves dominate their destiny.
Seeing Xiao Tali leaving like this, the Khitan ministers in the court were extremely shocked. After looking at each other for a few glances, they all looked at Yelu Hanba and Houshai.
Hou Shi was also shocked by Xiao Tali's almost rude behavior, leaving all the ministers in the court and leaving herself, which was enough to show Xiao Tali's anger.
But it doesn't matter. They are only concerned with their future now, and the future of the Khitan. As for what this NV person feels like, no one cares.
"Hou Shi, what should we do next? If the empress dowager doesn't issue an imperial edict, wouldn't it be that Lao Jiu really asked the soldiers to come?"
Yelu Hanba's old face showed his dissatisfaction with Xiao Talili. Hou Shi listened and smiled: "Is there a difference between issuing an order? The emperor is gone, so what else do you want that order to do?"
Yelu Hanba agreed with his idea very much: "What we are saying is. Then let's send someone to find Lao Jiu and let him come back."
Xiao Tali, who retreated into the harem, kept holding the child in his arms. Her jing spirit suddenly became a little dazed. At this moment, she thought of Liao Xingzong, the man with her hair.
Liao Xingzong was very good to her. When she was young, she loved her three thousand people. Later, even though those young nvs slowly pulled Liao Xingzong to their side, she still received enough respect.
Now that I think about it, my dissatisfaction with Liao Xingzong all comes from her own dissatisfaction. Xiao Tali hopes that his man can achieve great success, and at the same time, he hopes that he can like him all his life. She wants to be the NV person behind a successful man, but she also longs for Xiao Yanyan's original civil and military achievements.
These inner conflicts in her heart were destined that no matter how well Liao Xingzong did, she would be dissatisfied. When Liao Xingzong was alive, she felt that this man was no longer concerned to her. But when she really came to this point and was facing a grudge, Xiao Tali was like an ordinary nv boy who had suffered a lot of grievances, hugging his grandson tightly, his eyes were red, and he forced himself to not let tears fall.
She really felt that even if the man's body could be hugged in front of her, it would be good to let her hug her.
Xiao Suli knocked outside: "Empress Dowager, I have something to report to the Empress Dowager."
Xiao Tali hurriedly controlled his emotions and put the child down from his knees: "Come in."
Now in such a huge Liao Kingdom, there were so many ministers who once said they wanted to be loyal to him. This younger brother was the only one who could make Xiao Tars completely believe in it.
"Empress Dowager, Zhang Li's negotiations have ended. The Song army did not agree to release Hong Ji. Moreover, they and the ancient cavalry had set off and headed straight for the capital."
This is really not good news. The Song Dynasty did not release people, the war continued to begin, and the last glimmer of hope in Xiao Tatar was shattered. Her tone was a little trembling: "How did those ministers react?"
"This is sent by our confidant soon. Zhang Li's letter has not been back yet, but it should be in these two days. We must prepare early."
Xiao Ta’s hands were tightly held together, and his ten fingers were wronged: “What should we do? If those people knew that the Song army was coming to attack Shangjing, they would have more reason to let Yelu Niegulu come back.”
Xiao Suli looked at Xiao Talili with his eyes, as if he was about to say something, but hesitated. This expression made Xiao Talili smile bitterly: "Say whatever he wants to say, what else can't be said at this time?"
Xiao Suli then spoke: "Empress Dowager, the three people who are in charge of the major affairs of the Song army in Zhongjing are Wen Yanbo, Di Qing, and Chen Shimei. You see, can we find Chen Shimei? If he is willing to let go of us a little, our lives will be much better."
Xiao Tali first pondered for a while, then shook his head slightly: "Impossible, Chen Shimei could not give us a chance."
Xiao Suli leaned forward and said, "It's okay to try it, he won't talk about anything. Our situation is not good now. If things get to the worst, even for the sake of the princess, he should give us a way out."
Only then did Xiao Tali realize that his younger brother was not looking for a way out of the Liao Dynasty, but his own way out. Could it be that there is really no hope now? Even he has to find another way out.
"Okay, then you send someone to see it, remember, don't do it in my name."
