Chapter 1202 The Pillar of the Liao Dynasty
The Liao people's attitude towards the Song Dynasty made Wuguna confused. Since the Song people had threatened the security between the Song and Liao dynasties, why should they retain the last bit of face? The Jurchens couldn't understand this so-called game of great powers.
In his opinion, a massacre was calculated more than sending three or five messengers, and the effect achieved was even more different.
But the Liao Dynasty had its own plans. Now the domestic economy of the Liao Dynasty has been in a slump, which has touched the bottom line of the Liao Dynasty. There is no money and many things that cannot be done. The Liao Dynasty only saw its own problems and did not consider what harm the demise of the Jurchens would bring to the Liao Dynasty.
The Liao Dynasty had its own bottom line, and the Song people must not step beyond the line. Once the troops invaded the Liaoyang Prefecture in Tokyo, the Liao cavalry would fight back without hesitation. Yelu Hongji had his own plans. Now that the Jurchens and the Song people are fighting in full swing, they can sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight.
Over the years, the development of the Jurchens has reached a point where the Liao Dynasty cannot easily control it. Even the dogs they raise may backfire their masters, let alone the unfamiliar Jurchens?
If you say that Wuguna is really useful, it not only helped the Liao Dynasty maintain the stability of Liaodong, but also gave tribute to Haidongqing and Shanzin. There are also some unexpected "little gifts" or a pair of twin green men or a BMW, which can always scratch their itch.
Of course, he also gave him quite a lot of benefits, not only letting him dominate the Wanyan tribe, but also giving him a lot of assistance. Otherwise, the Wanyan tribe would have been replaced by other Jurchen tribes.
In Yelu Hongji's eyes, the Jurchens were the dogs that the Daliao bit people. Now the Song people stretched out their hands, just to let them bite each other. As for the Daliao... they naturally reap the benefits of the fisherman!
In the palace, Yelu Hongji was proud of his plan, and the two identical beauties around him made him nostalgic in the gentle land. Unexpectedly, Ugunai was really capable and could find twin beauties.
Beauties are common in this world, but these beauties who look exactly the same are rare, right?
Just when Yelu Hongji was about to "make great achievements", his interest was interrupted. The eunuch in the palace whispered in the corner of the hall: "I will report to Your Majesty, and the left Prime Minister Zhang Jian asks for a visit!!"
"Tell him that I'm busy! I'll report to Zhaode Hall after lunch..."
The eunuch was struggling for a while, and finally said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I have said it, but the left Prime Minister doesn't agree! If Your Majesty doesn't see you, I'm afraid I'll go find the Empress Dowager again later..."
Yelu Hongji sneered: "What's the matter with finding my mother? My mother said that since she returned to power and I will no longer interfere in the national sect. Unless I personally invite you or the Great Liao Dynasty is about to destroy the country, it will never be left behind."
"Can……"
What else did the eunuch say? As soon as he spoke, he was interrupted by the teacup thrown by Yelu Hongji. Looking at the teacup that was crushed to pieces on the ground, the eunuch swallowed his saliva and slowly retreated from the palace...
The palace in front of me is Zhaowen Hall, the study of the kings of the Liao Dynasty and the place where the emperors were concerned about politics. The emperors worked diligently here, otherwise the Liao Dynasty would not be today.
But now, Yelu Hongji, the emperor of the Great Liao Dynasty, is here to be filthy with the beauty. If this is spread, let alone being ridiculed by the Song people, even the people of the Great Liao Dynasty will not be able to bear it!
Zhang Jian stared at the Qilin representing the beast Wenchang outside Zhaowen Hall for a long time. The emperor had never stopped summoning him for such a long time...
"Prime Minister Zuo, Your Majesty has something to do. He is busy at this time. Please ask Prime Minister Zuo to return first and report to Zhaode Hall tomorrow."
Zhang Jian looked at the eunuch and looked at him with a furious look before saying, "Your Majesty is really gone?"
The eunuch dared not offend Zhang Jian, and said with a flattering smile: "I didn't say that your majesty is busy with national affairs, so I really can't spare time to see you!"
Zhang Jian looked at the eunuch and said word by word: "Isolate the inside and outside, there is no news of the emperor. Are you going to commit rebellion?! What does Your Majesty say not to summon important officials? What does it mean to refuse and not summon them?!"
A big hat was pulled down, which scared the eunuchs to fight. If he didn't say it, he would have lost his life. His Majesty would never have had a stumble with Prime Minister Left because of him. In the end, he was the only one who was unlucky.
"Wuguna from Wanyan tribe sent a pair of twin beauties into the palace a few days ago. Your Majesty is………"
Zhang Jian waved coldly and said, "I know, let's get out!" Zhang Jian had no good face to these eunuchs in the palace. These people only knew to hide it for the emperor, and they deserved it if they killed it.
Zhang Jian knew that when he went in, the emperor would definitely be angry and embarrassed. At this time, he would go to Mr. Xiao later. The Song people had already reached the doorstep of the house of the Liao Dynasty. At this time, the emperor was still nostalgic for the gentle land, which was not what the king did.
Compared to the Emperor of the Song Dynasty who was dedicated to taking power into his own hands, the Emperor of the Liao Dynasty might as well hand over state affairs to the empress dowager. Zhang Jian was deeply disappointed. Guanzi's incident had caused a lot of trouble before, which also caused the Liao Dynasty's economy to be severely damaged. Now the Song people have withdrawn merchants and still built the Great Wall at the junction of the two countries. This is a very obvious signal.
The Empress Dowager's Yuren Palace was still quiet and peaceful. Zhang Jian was summoned by Empress Dowager Xiao soon. Faced with such an old minister who was loyal to national affairs, Empress Dowager Xiao could not refuse. The young Empress Dowager was only 34 years old, even one year younger than the Emperor of the Song Dynasty.
But her insights and wisdom are not comparable to those of the emperor. Once Zhang Jian encounters an urgent matter and cannot get an answer from the emperor, the first thing he looks for is the Empress Dowager, the pillar of the country.
Thinking of this, Zhang Jian didn't feel a bitter smile. Who would have thought that the pillar of the Daliao would be a woman?
The pearl curtains in Yuren's palace were hanging lightly, and Zhang Jian talked jokingly: "Empress Dowager, now it is time for our Great Liao to be imminent. The Song people used troops to attack the Jurchens and build cities and roads. If the Liao Dynasty stumbled upon me, the Great Liao Dynasty would be destroyed and my lips would be lost!"
Zhang Jian's words made Xiao Tali smile bitterly behind the pearl curtain. How could she not know this simple truth? But now she has returned to power and the emperor. If she interferes too much, it will inevitably cause a gap between mother and son, which is not conducive to the national dynasty.
"Didn't you report to the emperor? You should have your Majesty's decision at this time."
Zhang Jian's body stiffened and said helplessly with a hint of bitterness: "Your Majesty... Although he is in Zhaowen Hall, he is lingering in the gentle place..."
Xiao Tali's face changed a few times, and the rings on his body also jingled. At this moment, the emperor of the Great Liao was still wandering on the woman's belly. How could Xiao Tali not be angry!
"So, Your Majesty is planning to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight and reap the benefits of the fisherman! It's ridiculous. After fighting with the Emperor of Song for so long, he still doesn't know what kind of temperament he has, but he is showing off his cleverness!
Zhang Jian, go and summon all the ministers, ask the Yelu family’s ancestor tablets to follow our palace to advise the king!!”
