Chapter three hundred and seventy-six: tasted the sweetness, naturally do not want to lose
The great monk returned from a long distance and brought back first-hand the most detailed information about the Liao Kingdom.
As Yelujun stepped into Linhuang Mansion on Shangjing Road, the battle for the crown prince of the Liao Kingdom finally came to an end.
The Liao Kingdom officially issued an edict to the world. It will not take long before the Liao Kingdom's special envoy will arrive in Bianliang again to formally inform the Song Kingdom of the matter.
Yelu Hongzhen, the marshal of the Liao Kingdom and the commander-in-chief of the Pishi Army, resigned from these two positions. The person who took over these two positions was Yelu Jun. With the official transfer of military power, Yelu Jun's status could no longer be shaken.
The governor of Nanjing Road was succeeded by Yeluzhen, a close confidant of Yelujun.
"What surprised me the most was that Yelujun didn't kill Yeluxi." The great monk touched his bald head and said with regret, "He just exiled Yeluxi to Liaodong and gave him the title of King of Liaodong. But the title of King of Liaodong was
The military power was in the hands of another close confidant of Yelu Jun, Yelu Hu. Yeluxi went to that bitter and cold land, and life was not easy even if he thought about it."
"This is exactly the cleverness of Yelujun!" Xiao Cheng also sighed: "Yeluxi has been entrenched in Shangjing Road for many years, and there are many close followers in the Pishi Army. Killing him is the easiest way for Yelujun, but Liao
The country will inevitably fall into a major purge because of this incident. Such a major purge will greatly reduce the strength of the Liao State, and within a short period of time, it will inevitably be unable to launch any more external attacks."
"But now, they have completed the transfer of power in the most peaceful way." Huiyuan said: "Although those followers of Yelvxi lost a lot because of this incident, they at least saved their lives. In the days to come, for
Show your loyalty to your new masters, and they will spare no effort to treat Yelujun's words as golden words. Young Master, the days of peace in Liao and Song Dynasties will not last long."
"The Liao will have the shortest time to complete the integration, and then the war between the Liao and Song Dynasties will inevitably resume!" Xiao Cheng stood up, paced back and forth in the room, and said: "Next, Yelujun will combine those of Yeluxi
The die-hard cronies will be transferred to the border one by one. These troops will either be wiped out in the friction and conflict with the Song army, or they will be reorganized, and then the traces of Yelvxi will be completely wiped out."
"Ma Xing is in trouble!" Huiyuan said, "Hebei will never have peace again."
"When these armies truly become Yelujun's army, when Yelujun completes the reform of the court, and when the differences between the northern and southern chambers of Liao are bridged as much as possible because of Yelujun, the Liao army will inevitably march south!
"Xiao Cheng walked to the wall and looked up at the huge map on the wall.
"Winning the differences between the Northern and Southern Houses cannot be accomplished overnight. According to the monk, the contradiction between the Han family and the Khitan dignitaries in the Liao Kingdom is already quite deep!" Huiyuan said: "Next, Yelujun will meet
If we take action against those rotten Khitan dignitaries, someone from the Han family will inevitably be pulled out to sacrifice the flag, and the one who takes action will definitely be the newly rehabilitated Crown Princess Xiao Chuo!"
The room fell silent for a moment.
After a long while, Xiao Cheng smiled bitterly.
Knowing from Huiyuan that his sister was not dead, he was naturally overjoyed, but when he thought of his sister's current situation and position, Xiao Cheng couldn't be happy no matter what.
"Sir, actually speaking of it, although Yelujun is from the Liao country, he is also an outstanding figure of his generation. It would not be a disgrace to the Xiao family for the third lady to marry him as his wife!" Huiyuan said in a low voice.
Xiao Cheng exhaled a breath and said: "If these two people are really in love, then I have nothing to be dissatisfied with. Even if our positions are different, even if we and Yelujun will fight on the battlefield in the future, and we will fight to the death, but I
I will still bless them. But, is this the real situation?"
"Ye Lujun should still like Sanniangzi. I can still feel this."
"Like is part of it, but use is probably a bigger factor!" Xiao Cheng said calmly: "Yelujun needs a noble Han woman to help him win over the powerful Han family in the country, and he also needs such a person.
Come and eradicate those disobedient Han people for him. Moreover, eldest brother and I are not included in this person's plan."
"Sanniang seems confident!" Huiyuan said: "There is a sentence that impressed me deeply. Sanniang said that she will definitely live longer than Yelujun. Young Master, Yelujun has a hidden illness and has never recovered. Moreover, I'm afraid
It won’t get better. If one day, Yelujun suddenly dies suddenly, with Sanniangzi’s methods, maybe the power of the Liao Kingdom will fall into Sanniangzi’s hands. By that time?”
"You are thinking too much!" Xiao Cheng looked at Huiyuan and said.
"Why can't you think so?" Huiyuan asked.
"I understand a little bit about the third sister's thoughts." Xiao Cheng said: "The Zhao Song family is her enemy, so why not Yelujun? One is a wolf and the other is a tiger. So she sacrifices herself to sacrifice the tiger and wants to drive it away.
The tiger eats the wolf. Maybe in the process, she will first find a way to turn herself into a tiger."
"Kill Yelujun, take control of the Liao Kingdom, and then drive the Liao Kingdom to attack the Song Dynasty, advance into Bianliang, and then kill the Zhao Song officials!" Huiyuan said horrified.
"That's probably it!"
"This, this road is not easy to walk!" Huiyuan was a little dumbfounded: "If you don't do it right, you will get yourself in. Ah, no wonder Sanniangzi is determined not to recognize you and Dalang, because she doesn't want to let Yelu
Jun feels that she still has a little connection with you. But how can Yelu Jun be easy to get along with?"
"Perhaps for Sanmei, this is a game that can excite her! Winning or losing is not that important. What is important is that she worked hard." Xiao Cheng said: "In fact, why should she?
So, his second brother is so unbearable in her eyes, can't he take revenge? By the way, maybe because I have failed before, she has lost confidence in me, so she decided to do it herself."
Huiyuan was silent for a moment and said: "Young master, I have to do this. If the third lady can really become the queen mother of the Liao Kingdom and hold the power of the Liao Kingdom, she may be able to take revenge faster, more thoroughly, and more powerfully than you.
The important thing is that it will not bring any infamy to the Xiao family."
Xiao Cheng raised his head and tried his best to hold back the tears in his eyes.
Or, this is the deepest thought in Xiao Yi's heart.
She wants revenge, she wants to kill all the enemies of the Xiao family, but the biggest enemy is the official family of the Song Dynasty, the most noble existence for all the people of the Song Dynasty.
She cannot admit that she is the daughter of the Xiao family.
She tried her best to become Xiao Siwen's daughter and the crown prince of the Liao Kingdom, just to cut off her relationship with the Xiao family.
In this way, when she sends her troops into the Song Dynasty and attacks Bianliang to take revenge, the people of the Song Dynasty will not hate the Xiao family because of this, nor will they hate his eldest brother and second brother.
Because this matter was only done by Xiao Chuo, the Queen Mother of the Liao Kingdom.
Daobi Chunqiu.
If the world knows that Xiao Chuo is Xiao Yu's daughter and Xiao Cheng's sister, then after she has done this, the Xiao family will definitely be stained in the history books because of this matter. As for Xiao Chuo,
Cheng, of course, is also in ruins. He is afraid that he will disappear without a trace.
"Sir, if, I mean if, the third lady really did all this and really sent her troops to kill Bianliang, what would you do at that time? Will you stop her?" Huiyuan asked suddenly.
If you have the ability at that time."
Huiyuan's question silenced Xiao Chengwen.
What should I do?
It is conceivable that if the Liao army were really allowed to attack Bianliang, this largest city in the world would be destroyed, and countless Song people would mourn in the flames of war, and it would be inevitable that their lives would be ruined.
If you have the ability, should you stop it?
Xiao Cheng said, "Maybe I will go. Because of my family's hatred, countless innocent people should not be sacrificed. Great monk, can you imagine the situation of the Liao people after they defeated Bianliang?"
"I can't imagine it." Huiyuan said: "But Master, if you want to stop it, with your current strength, you are simply helpless. You don't have the ability to enter the game yet! The third lady told me the time limit,
She said, ten years at most. I have never understood how she could do all this in ten years!"
If Xiao Chuo wants to hold great power, there is a necessary prerequisite for Yelujun to die. In this way, as the queen mother, she will be able to hold great power by supporting the underage Yeluxian to rise to power.
But, is it so easy for Yelujun to die?
Huiyuan couldn't understand.
Xiao Cheng couldn't understand either.
Since you don’t understand, there’s no need to think about it any more. If you want to participate in the overall situation of the world, you must first have enough strength.
Xiao Ding is in charge of the northwest and already has the power to make moves.
Xiao Chuo became the crown prince of the Liao Kingdom, and soon she would become the queen of the Liao Kingdom, and she would be qualified to serve at the table.
Xiao Cheng's strength in the southwest has just taken root and sprouted, and it will take some time for it to blossom and bear fruit!
Huiyuan looked at Xiao Cheng's side face, and realized that the situation in the world might follow the footsteps of the three Xiao brothers and sisters in the years to come!
"Great monk, you are back this time. Please stop running around. The federation will unify all intelligence networks and establish a new department. You can do this!"
Huiyuan shook his head: "I think this matter should be left to Wu Ke. This person should be qualified for this matter. As for me, I still like to travel around the world. I think my identity and reputation can be effective."
I want to help this organization expand as quickly as possible. It is the wrong place to confine me here to do some paperwork. Next, I think I should go further south and go shopping in Dali.
There are many knowledgeable people among the great monks in Tianlong Temple, and I was about to go ask for advice!"
Xiao Cheng laughed: "You should think about this matter carefully. Don't be in a hurry to reject me like this. Let's rest for some time first. Wu Ke is far behind you in terms of qualifications and ability."
Huiyuan waved his hand: "No need to think about it anymore, I have already made a decision. By the way, I heard that this place is going to be lively next? There are going to be a lot of guests?"
"The federation's first plenary meeting is about to be held." Xiao Cheng said with a smile: "Everyone has to vote to decide on our next few major issues."
"But Young Master, the direction has been set a long time ago, and what is to be done next cannot be changed. What is the purpose of convening this meeting? Wouldn't it be embarrassing if someone really raised an objection at the meeting?
"Hui Yuan said. "In my opinion, why bother with something that you can definitely decide with one word? Who dares to oppose you?"
Xiao Cheng spread his hands and said: "Great monk, what is the difference between me here and the one in Bianliang? Even if it is a formality now, it must be solemn and serious so that everyone feels
Every vote in their hands can play a particularly important role."
"What if someone really objects?"
"The minority must obey the majority!" Xiao Cheng said calmly: "I have communicated with most people, so the really important things will definitely be passed. Some decisions that are not very important at the moment and have little impact will be passed.
You don’t have to pass it. We need to form a habit, and everyone must discuss everything. You can join forces, and you can find allies, but there is no need for one person to make a decision."
"I always feel like I'm taking off my pants and farting!" Huiyuan snorted.
"This is to prepare for the future!" Xiao Cheng said: "Monk, do you think we will still need an emperor in the future?"
"It should still be necessary, right?" Monk Huiyuan hesitated for a moment and said.
"Yes, everyone thinks so!" Xiao Cheng said: "Then why am I working so hard? Now, we do need an emperor, because this is everyone's consensus. But I don't want to
Life and death, honor and disgrace are all in the hands of one person, so I want to establish such a system. If anything happens, everyone will discuss it. As long as the vast majority of people agree to something, the emperor cannot object, and the vast majority of people will
The emperor can't do anything he doesn't agree with."
The monk touched his forehead and said, "You have talked about this with me before."
"So, from now on, I ask everyone to discuss things together and vote to decide important matters. As our strength slowly grows, the power in our hands will become bigger and bigger. Every vote in our hands will
The energy shown by going out will become greater and greater. And these people with the right to vote will become more and more obsessed with this feeling. As long as people have tasted the sweetness, they will never want to do it easily again.
Loss. Once a person gets certain powers, he will want to keep them. So, even if we have to have an emperor in the future, we can still control our own destiny. "
"Cage and shackle the emperor's power?" Huiyuan said: "I'm afraid the one from Bianliang won't do it!"
"Then we can set up one to do it." Xiao Cheng said: "We have one in hand. He is still very young and can be trained from an early age."
"Zhao An?" Huiyuan's eyes widened. "He is the son of the rebel king."
