Chapter 747: It Doesn't Matter(1/2)
Luo Song is dead.
Laughing like crazy!
I laughed wildly when I heard that Yeluzhen was defeated in the Jianghuai River and hundreds of thousands of Liao troops and their servants suffered heavy losses and fled in embarrassment; when I heard that Liu Yiguo led his troops to land in Dengzhou and established the fourth battlefield, Chen Tiansong and Chen Tiansong in the secret city
The family united with more than a dozen wealthy families in the Jingdong area to raise the flag against the Liao Dynasty and laughed wildly when they greeted the Song army; when they heard that Yelu Longxu quickly retreated, leaving behind Qu Zhen and the so-called Song King Zhao Suo, both died in battle
Laughing wildly.
He laughed himself to death!
His laughter made countless Liao people who got the news extremely angry. If it weren't for the fact that Empress Dowager Chengtian left a group of Shan army guards to protect him when she left for Daming Mansion, Luo Song would have been angry.
The Liao officials tore it into pieces to vent their anger.
The composition of the Shushan Army is very complex. They are death row prisoners, criminals, and horse thieves. They were kneaded into a team with superior combat effectiveness by Yelumin under the orders of Xiao Chuo.
Therefore, they had no feelings or anger towards either Liao or Song. They were only loyal to one person, the Empress Dowager Chengtian.
Since the order given to them by the Queen Mother is to protect the old man Luo Song, they must carry out this task perfectly and not let the old man be killed.
It's not their fault that Luo Song is laughing to death now.
So even if it's a corpse, they are still carrying out the order to protect it.
A few days after Luo Song's death, Xiao Chuo returned to Xijin Mansion.
Also returning with her were Sun Pu and his 10,000 Shan troops.
The Xijin Mansion immediately became quiet.
Standing outside the small courtyard where Luo Song temporarily lived, Xiao Chuo felt dumbfounded.
Because even though the old man is dead, the whole small courtyard is lit up with lights and is full of joy. When we first arrived, we could vaguely hear an opera troupe singing. Of course, now these opera actors are lying on their knees on the ground, shivering.
.
"Which one did the old husband sing?" Looking at Luo Yi, Luo Yi, the eldest son in front of him, Xiao Chuo asked with a straight face. "Is this your idea? The old husband doesn't have time to order and arrange these, right?"
If this was really Luo Yi's fault, Xiao Chuo wouldn't mind giving him some trouble.
"My grandpa gave this order before he was alive." Luo Yi said sternly: "If the front line of Daliao is defeated and he dies, it will be a happy occasion and must be treated as a happy occasion."
Xiao Chuo shook his head and walked to the coffin.
Light three pillars of incense, raise it to your forehead, bow three times, and then insert the incense into the incense burner.
Luo Yi also followed the etiquette and knelt beside the soul to thank him.
"My old husband once told me that if he dies one day, I hope he can be buried in his hometown. Just pack up and send my old body home!"
"Thank you, Queen Mother!" Luo Yi was overjoyed. Originally, he thought this was something he didn't dare to count on, but now Xiao Chuo said it easily.
For Xiao Chuo, this is just a sentence, but for Luo Song, it is a fallen leaf returning to its roots. For Luo Yi and his family, it is an escape from the cage, the eagle soars in the sky, and the fish dives into the deep sea.
"Old husband, over the years, you have helped me manage government affairs, reform the official system, and eliminate redundant and inferior people. You know clearly that my forcibly combining the Han and Khitan people and forcefully promoting a high degree of centralization have great hidden dangers.
But you worked harder than me; I wanted to gather wealth in advance and fight the Song Dynasty decisively, so you helped me collect money and extort money, which made the whole Liao Dynasty complain. Now, I finally got your wish, I lost! But, I am willing to accept defeat.
, this is nothing special."
Luo Yi got up and said: "Queen Mother, I also told me something about the things that I have done in Liao over the years. I wonder if the Queen Mother wants to hear it!"
"Of course I want to hear it! Has my husband eliminated me?"
"Don't dare!" Luo Yi shook his head and said: "My father said that if you win this gambling battle, your reputation will reach an unprecedented peak. Even the founding emperor of Liao Kingdom will be in front of you.
It will be eclipsed, so those hidden dangers will no longer be hidden dangers. If the Liao Dynasty wins and the Song Dynasty loses, a unified empire will appear on this continent, a unified empire that will be larger than the Qin, Han and Tang Dynasties. And
After this reform, the sinicized Liao Kingdom will inevitably become part of the Chinese heritage. When the Yi and Di enter the Chinese, they will be the Chinese, so their hard work will not be in vain."
Xiao Chuo raised his eyebrows: "If I fail, these hidden dangers will inevitably break out one after another, and the Liao Dynasty will inevitably be on the verge of collapse. Then during the Northern Expedition of the Song Dynasty, it is very likely that the situation will be overwhelming. In this way, a super empire will be born."
Neither?"
"Exactly!" Luo Yi said with a smile: "No matter who wins or loses, I will have no regrets. He said that these years are the most fulfilling years of his life. Of course, Da Song won,
Let his joy rise to the next level."
Xiao Chuo was silent for a long time, then reached out to pick up a jug of wine, tilted his neck, drank several mouthfuls, then smashed the jug in front of the soul, turned around and strode away.
In fact, she hated Luo Song.
This hatred has not diminished with the passage of time.
At that time, Luo Song, who was the second assistant of the Political Affairs Hall of the Song Dynasty, had the ability to prevent her from being sent away.
If he wanted to protect Xiao Chuo forcefully, he would definitely be able to do it.
Unfortunately, Luo Song gave in.
There is a side of serving the country, but more importantly, it is for Luo Gang!
At that time, the Xiao family had become rebels. Xiao Yu and his wife died tragically, Xiao Ding and Xiao Changqing raised the flag of rebellion, Xiao Cheng and Xiao Chongwen disappeared. No one thought that the Xiao family would one day make a comeback.
There is nothing wrong with an old father considering his son's future and standing on his side.
But a woman, because of this incident, completely embarked on a different path of no return.
None of the instigators back then met a good end.
Cui Ang was chopped into pieces by Yelumin one by one all night long.
People like Xia Jie and Chen Shu committed suicide on the way to the Song Emperor's surrender. Even if they died, the label of a failure to assist the government and the collapse of the Song Dynasty would be firmly pinned on their heads. Huanghuang history books,
I won't show mercy just because they died for their country in the end.
As for the Zhao family and his son, it was even worse.
The entire royal family was kidnapped by Xiao Chuo to the Liao Kingdom and imprisoned in the cities of the Five Kingdoms. The misery they suffered was difficult to describe in words. As for Zhao Jing and Zhao Suo, father and son, as one of the most noble people in the world, not only
His reputation was completely ruined, and his death was extremely unbearable.
As for Luo Song, Xiao Chuo also wanted to ruin his reputation.
It's just that because of Luo Gang, the methods she adopted were more subtle.
If Xiao Chuo still has some tender feelings for anyone in the Luo family, it is only Luo Gang.
That stupid boy was the last bit of warmth in Xiao Chuo's heart.
Now it seems that this old man has probably guessed what he was thinking, but he may not care anymore!
Luo Song's coffin was draped in red and green, and was locked and beaten with gongs and drums all the way as it left Xijin Mansion.
Holding the token of the Empress Dowager Chengtian in his hand and being escorted by the Shan army, no one would want to disturb him along the way. If it weren't for this person's special status and the defeat on the front line, maybe there would be people along the route.
The officials of the Ministry of Commerce have to perform roadside sacrifices to please the Empress Dowager Chengtian!
The news that Yeluzhen was assassinated outside Tokyo finally reached Xijin Mansion.
Sun Chun knelt down in front of Xiao Chuo, his expression gloomy.
Yeluzhen's death means that internal strife in Daliao will be inevitable.
And he, as the top person in charge of the school affairs office, inevitably has to bear the greatest responsibility in this matter.
"Is it really Yelu Longxu who killed Yelu Zhen?" Xiao Chuo looked very calm.
"Judging from all the evidence, it was indeed Yelu Longxu who did it!" Sun Chun said. "Although he made a lot of cover-ups, these cover-ups only further prove that he did these things."
Looking through the report about this matter handed over by Sun Chun, Xiao Chuo sighed: "It doesn't matter whether it is true or not, because even if Yelu Zhen was not killed by him, Yelu Chengcai would definitely die in his hands.
Up."
"Yes! The troops sent out by Yelu Longxu received his urgent military order halfway, and the whole army turned back. It was precisely because of this order that the 10,000-strong army led by Yelu Chengcai was defeated by Bai Yu's army.
Surround and annihilate them all!" Sun Chun said angrily: "Empress Dowager, the evidence of the crime is conclusive, please order Yelu Longxu to be executed."
"That guy is in the army, can he be punished?" Xiao Chuo laughed: "Does the outside world know much about this matter?"
"Your Majesty, I can't hide it. Many generals who are close to Yeluzhen know about this matter. Now, his lieutenants are gathering troops in Daming Mansion, preparing to avenge Yeluzhen!" Sun Chun said: "Yelu Longxu
Don't even think about stepping onto Hebei Road. Although he still has tens of thousands of troops under his command, and although Yelv Bianji of Zhending Mansion also has 20,000 Pishi troops in his hands, Queen Mother, as long as your will is achieved, I believe these troops will definitely
Without any intention to fight, you can break it with just a wave of your hand!"
"How can this matter be so simple?" Xiao Chuo said: "Behind Yelu Longxu, there are more powerful forces, and Yelu Zhen and his subordinates have never been my direct descendants, so don't
Judging from how fierce they are now, Daming Mansion will definitely become quiet next, and they may even join forces with Yelu Longxu."
"How could this be?"
"Why wouldn't this be the case?" Xiao Chuo closed the report and placed it next to the eucalyptus: "Don't forget, there is an emperor in Daliao!"
"You mean the emperor will come forward?" Sun Chun was a little surprised: "Your Majesty has always been very filial to you!"
Xiao Chuo smiled and said: "Since ancient times, the royal family has no family ties. Come to think of it, Axian is already on his way to Xijin Mansion now!"
Sun Chun's face changed: "Is this an attempt to force the palace? They may have forgotten that there are 10,000 Shan soldiers here, 5,000 heavy cavalry of Guo Xie in Zhongjing, and a firearms camp commanded by the Murong brothers! Queen Mother,
I will immediately send people to the northwest to find King Zhenbei!"
"You don't need to look for King Zhenbei!" Xiao Chuo waved his hand and said: "I initiated the Southern Expedition. Now that it has failed, someone must take responsibility. This person can only be me.
