Zuo of the Liao Dynasty has been passed down for hundreds of years. As the ruling class, the aloof Khitan people have long lost the vigor and fierceness of their ancestors. Their will has been worn away by wine and beautiful women.

Even the 100,000-strong Pishi army they used as a country's sea-fixing needle is no longer as domineering as it used to be.

Although they are still one of the strongest troops in the world.

However, someone has dared to challenge them.

As for the palace-divided army, it is even worse, and the head-off army has long become a means for the nobles to suppress the people. If they really want them to go to the battlefield without holding them back, then Amitabh will do it.

On the other hand, the strength of the Han families in Liao has grown steadily over the years.

From the beginning, they were suppressed and exploited by the Khitan nobles, and gradually they became divided and fought against each other. Finally, they even forced the Liao court to establish two institutions, the South Court and the North Court, with two parallel political systems.

On the Nanjing Road, Han families were the dominant force.

In the border struggle with the Song people, at first the Liao people were the main ones, supplemented by the Han families on the Nanjing Road, in order to gain the trust of the Liao people. As time went by, the fighting party slowly became Nanjing.

The Han people on the road and the Liao people began their beautiful and leisurely life.

After more than a hundred years of fighting, the Han families on the Nanjing Road became stronger and stronger, while the strength of the Liao people shrank sharply.

In the end, fists still have to do the talking.

The reason why the Liao court sent Yelujun to Nanjing was because Yelujun was an absolute anomaly among the royal family of Liao at that time.

He loved Sinology and became a disciple of Lin Jing, a Han Chinese. His Sinology achievements were the best among the Khitans, and even many Han masters were dumbfounded in front of him and resigned themselves to lagging behind.

Letting Yelujun come to Nanjing Road can make these Han families on Nanjing Road recognize this Liao royal family more and avoid chaos.

Because at this time, Nanjing Road not only had strong soldiers and horses, but also was the economic center of the Liao Kingdom. If the military combat effectiveness of the Nanjing Road was not the first in the Liao Kingdom, its financial resources were definitely the first, and other places simply did not.

There's no comparison.

Yelujun's arrival indeed made the Han families on Nanjing Road subservient, but it also created another important issue in the Liao Kingdom, that is, the issue of inheritance.

Before Yelujun emerged, Yeluxi was undoubtedly the first choice. He had even become the deputy commander of the Pishi Army. When he became the commander, it meant that he became the official heir.

But Yelujun made all of this full of variables.

As Yelujun successively won a series of great victories on the borders of Liao and Song Dynasties, and even forced the Song State to sign a treaty that was humiliating and humiliating the country, allowing the Liao State to achieve an unparalleled victory over the Song Dynasty in the past century.

Yelujun has been ranked ahead of Yeluxi in the domestic succession battle.

What does Yelujun rely on?

It relied on the unwavering support of the Han families in the Liao Kingdom, whether it was military or financial.

The dispute between the Liao and Song Dynasties for Chinese orthodoxy, to put it bluntly, is actually the dispute between the Han people in the Liao Dynasty and the Song people. As the strength of the Han families in the Liao Dynasty became stronger and stronger, this dispute became more and more intense. Really

A Khitan man, does he really care about this?

Yelujun knew very well that if he wanted to maintain his strength and advantage, he must always let the Han family follow him.

Lin Jing alone is not enough to make all the Han aristocratic families surrender to him, because the Lin family is also one of the aristocratic families, and there are countless conflicts and hatreds among these aristocratic families.

Therefore, Yelujun planned to marry a woman of Han descent to show his importance to the Han family, and this woman of Han descent would naturally become the glue for all Han families in Liao.

Of course, such a woman who meets all the conditions is rare and unique.

Mrs. Xiao Sanniang, Xiao Yi, is one of those people who is one in a million or even unique.

Family background, knowledge, appearance, etc. are impeccable.

Moreover, Xiao Ding, the commander-in-chief of the Western Army, who has become famous all over the world, and Xiao Cheng, the second son of the Xiao family who has already shown his sharp horns, can make people who know the inside story support Mrs. Xiao Sanniang to take this position.

Whether it is Yelujun or the Han people in Liao, they all have a common grand wish, which is to unify the world and unify the universe.

Today's confrontation between the north and the south is making them feel choked in their throats and extremely uncomfortable.

"Now that the Lin family is at the height of its power, we can only stay away!" Lu Jian slowly chewed the salt water beans and said: "Once His Highness ascends to the throne, the power of the Lin family will rise to the next level. But the peak of prosperity must decline, and things must reverse when they reach their peak. This is

The highest point of their Lin family will inevitably become the starting point of their decline."

"Xiao Chuo is extremely smart. I'm afraid he has already guessed that the ruin of her family is closely related to Lin Ping." Lu Jian'an smiled and said, "I was able to say a few words to this woman along the way.

, but when she faced Lin Ping, she never showed any pretense."

Lu Jian laughed: "Ben'an, in our Daliao, the queen has never been a decoration. If it is Xiao Xian, she will naturally have the Xiao family backing her. Xiao Siwen's strength is enough for her to sit firmly as the queen.

But Xiao Chuo is a loner, who will support him? The Lin family will only guard against her and will not give her any help, so we should outsell her in advance. If she is smart enough,

Know what to do!"

"Not long after arriving at Xijin Mansion, this girl Xiao Chuo can't wait to start building her own strength. Isn't it a bit too ostentatious? If His Highness doesn't like it..." Lu Ben'an hesitated.

Lu Jian shook his head: "You underestimate our His Highness. He has a big heart and is confident that he can control everything. He doesn't care about what Xiao Chuo does, or even cares about us colluding with this girl Xiao Chuo. Because

At the moment, their interests should be highly consistent."

"That's true!" Lu Ben'an said: "Xiao Chuo wants to take revenge on the Song Dynasty. The first step is for Your Highness to sit on the throne of the Emperor of Daliao. She can sit on the throne of the Queen. But father, we in Daliao also

He can be considered her enemy!"

Lu Jian laughed: "Ben An, what kind of revenge can be more thorough than taking away everything your enemy has, leaving your enemy with nothing, and even having to crawl at your feet in fear? At that time, it will be like

It's like a cat playing with a mouse. The mouse is frightened day by day and restless every night. It doesn't know when the sharp sword hanging above its head will fall and chop off its own neck."

"Your Highness will let something like this happen? Will the Lin family tolerate Xiao Chuo trampling on them at will one day?" Lu Benan shook his head: "Even though that girl has some talent, I really can't imagine her being able to do this."

"Having this ambition does not mean that she can achieve it! Of course, in my opinion, maybe she will always work hard in this direction." Lu Jian refused a sip of wine, "Before destroying the Song Dynasty, His Highness and her interests

They are highly consistent. Naturally, the husband sings and the wife follows, and the harp and harp play together. Once the Song Dynasty is destroyed, we will probably part ways. But for us, in this process, there will naturally be enough time and space to seek our own interests.

, constantly weakening the Lin family and strengthening our Lu family until we can replace them."

"Father, at that time, will His Highness abandon this queen?"

"Is that so easy?" Lu Jian smiled: "It depends on the general trend of the world. For example, how much strength will the queen have at that time? How many of these Han families can serve the queen wholeheartedly? For example, those who cut off the juju side

How much ability Xiao Ding and Xiao Changqing have to shake up the general trend of the world, etc., in short, we have to wait and see."

Lu Benan shook his head: "It seems that people from all walks of life are full of confidence in themselves. I don't know who will lose everything in the end."

"They are all the top people in the world. If they don't even have this kind of self-confidence, how can they say they can play chess in the world?" Lu Jian said with a smile: "As for winning or losing, there is a saying, it's up to people to make things happen.

In the future, if you don’t do it and see, who knows?”

"If you don't give it a try, who knows if it will work!" Xiao Chuo said softly to Qin Min beside him in Nanzhuyuan, the county prince's residence.

Qin Min was silent for a moment and said in a low voice: "Miss Xiao, I have watched carefully these days. Yelujun has not taken any precautions against you at all, and he follows you in and out of Xijin Mansion. If you want to leave, I will

Even if I risk my life, I will protect you and escape from here."

"Escape?" Xiao Chuo raised his head.

"That's right, not to mention other places, as long as you escape to Mr. Xiao, no one in the world can do anything to you!" Qin Min said in a low voice. "A man has to take charge of revenge. No matter it is

The eldest son of the Xiao family is still the second son, this is what they should do!"

Xiao Chuo shook his head slowly: "Qin Min, you don't understand. Even if the eldest brother has an army of 100,000, it is difficult to avenge our family's enemies."

Thinking of the strength, pros and cons of all parties analyzed by his second brother and himself, Xiao Chuo took a deep breath: "The revenge I want is not just a rage of an ordinary man, with blood splattering three times, I want to do it to change the color of the country.

, the world is turned upside down."

Qin Min sighed: "It's too difficult!"

"Of course it's difficult." Xiao Chuo said: "Just like you, you want to kill Cui Ang and cut him into pieces with a thousand knives, but with your current status, can you get within a hundred steps of him? This is still the case.

In the Liao Kingdom, if you were in the Song Kingdom or in Bianliang, you would be surrounded and suppressed by countless people as soon as you showed up. Besides, would you be relieved if you just killed him?"

Qin Min's eyes showed a fierce look.

"How many people have you chosen these days?" Xiao Chuo changed the topic.

"What I am looking for are sin slaves." Qin Min took a deep breath and switched his thoughts to another matter: "With a good foundation, the sin slaves who brought the family and the family have already selected a hundred people.

But in this case, the cost will be high. These sin slaves themselves spend no money. The owners of the sin slaves are willing to send people over for free, but settling the families of these people is a huge expense. According to five hundred

The scale of people is the accommodation of thousands of people."

"You don't have to worry about money." Xiao Chuo said: "You just need to ask those five hundred people to sell their lives to me. Even if they die in the war in the future, I will support their families to the end.

"

Qin Min said no more, bowed slightly, turned around and left Nanzhu Garden.

Xiao Chuo sat alone leaning on the railing for a long time, then got up and walked towards the Wutong Garden, which was separated from the Nanzhu Garden by a wall.

Xiao Chuo had the Nanzhu Garden to himself, but in the Wutong Garden lived the mistress of the palace, Yelujun's princess and Xiao Xian, the only daughter of Marshal Xiao Siwen.

Xiao Xian is already dying!

When this slim-looking woman saw Xiao Chuo, she sat up with the support of the palace maid with a happy face, and waved Xiao Chuo to sit in front of her.

Xiao Chuo, or Xiao Ai, is no stranger to Xiao Xian. In the past two years, the woman lingering on the sickbed has read many of her poems, lyrics and even some articles.

He signaled the palace maid to open the curtain covering the window, and the sunlight suddenly shone in through the window lattice. This made the woman on the bed frown involuntarily, but she shook her head to stop the palace maid from closing the curtain again.

His eyes rested on the child who was only five or six years old in the garden outside the window, carefreely flapping butterflies among the flowers with the palace maid.

"Xian'er is a good boy!" Xiao Xian took Xiao Chuo's hand and said softly.

Xiao Chuo nodded, "The king's three sons, Xian'er is the youngest, but in my opinion, he will definitely be the most promising in the future. If the princess is willing, I can be a female teacher to enlighten Xian'er.
