Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Chapter 558 Capture 50!
At the end of August, everything in Beijing, whether political or military, was generally arranged properly.

During this period, Emperor Shi lived in the Princess's mansion and did not go to the imperial city. Civil and military officials also went to Xiao Chuo's house for meetings. After all, Xiao Siwen was his father-in-law, so it was reasonable for Emperor Shi to live here.

In addition, he had other considerations, not for Xiao Chuo, of course, but for the overall situation, thinking about future political arrangements.

It is impossible for the Xiao Siwen family to be liquidated, even if Xiao Hunian is considered, but Xiao Siwen cannot be kept in Shangjing. The Xiao family is extremely special in the Liao Kingdom, and they almost rule the world together with the Yelu royal family. It is very difficult to keep the Xiao Siwen family here. not safe.

The Yelu royal family was almost wiped out by him, leaving the Xiao family behind, it was difficult for Han Derang or Li Jilong to contain it.

So Emperor Shi's determination was made from the very beginning.

Afterwards, Xiao Siwen did look for him, and expressed his euphemism that he wanted to stay, but Emperor Shi played the card of family affection, took his hand and said: "Hu Nian often said that he missed you in Daliang, and besides, Yuezhang and I are a family, Huang The state is three thousand miles away from Daliang, I cannot let you two elders suffer the bitter cold alone here.

What's more, today's next family, here and Daliang are both my Daqinzhou County, so there is no difference.

According to my Chinese etiquette, my father-in-law, the head of the country, should be supported by the people of the world, so of course he must go to Daliang. "

Although Emperor Shi usually speaks more casually, he always thinks over his head at critical moments. His words have three meanings. First, he uses family affection as an excuse to explain that he is not allowed to stay here.

Secondly, based on the principles of one family in the world, first start with a high style, so as to avoid Xiao Siwen's excuses such as being unaccustomed to the environment and not used to living.

In the end, he made up a Chinese etiquette to restrict him. Anyway, Xiao Siwen definitely didn't know about it. He is the emperor of Qin, so he just said yes.

Sure enough, Xiao Siwen was speechless and had no choice but to accept the arrangement.

Emperor Shi gave him five days to prepare for the salute. There are quite a few Xiao family members, more than 60 people in total, but many of them are prisoners in Youzhou.

In the next few days, Emperor Shi summoned civil and military officials and made a lot of arrangements, especially the original officials of Shangjing and the officials of surrounding states and counties. The civil and military officials of the army temporarily acted as first.

At the same time, the troops to stay will be rewarded first, and the items seized in the treasury of the Liao State will be rewarded first, and the remaining troops will be rewarded after the division.

Emperor Shi's plan was to retreat to the south of Youzhou to avoid the wind and snow before winter came.

In order to make arrangements as soon as possible, Emperor Shi has been busy these days, and did not fall asleep early at night when it was dark.

In fact, it was not too late at this time. He estimated that it was about ten o'clock in the evening, and it was already dark. However, the lighting conditions in ancient times were difficult, and candles and lamp oil were not cheap, so people almost went to bed early at this time.

Emperor Shi sorted out the personnel arrangements during the day and checked them carefully. He recorded the names and places of origin of all the people, and then checked all the reward plans. Do it yourself, Zhao Shijian, and a bunch of prime ministers can help, but there is nothing I can do right now.

After a while, there was a slight knock on the door outside.

"What's the matter?" Emperor Shi put down the Chinese book in his hand and stretched himself.

"Anyone begging to see you?"

"Who?"

"Master Xiao's daughter."

"Xiao Chuo?"

"Yes." Xiao Chuo's voice came from outside the door.

"Come in."

The door opened, Xiao Chuo came in with a teacup, Emperor Shi said: "Stop, turn around."

Xiao Chuo looked puzzled, but he did so at the door. Emperor Shi looked at her whole body carefully under the dim light, and then said: "Come here."

Xiao Chuo came over with small steps and handed him hot tea, and Emperor Shi put it in his hand: "Your father asked you to come."

Xiao Chuo was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.

"Sit down." Emperor Shi pointed to the chair opposite, and Xiao Chuo sat down obediently. "You speak Chinese well, even better than your sister."

"Father taught me since childhood," she whispered, "Has Your Majesty always been so diligent?"

"Of course, as the Son of Heaven of China, it is not enough to be unrivaled in martial arts. Martial arts also need to be well-mannered. These few days are free because of the war." Emperor Shi said seriously.

The little girl's expression was unbelievable, and there was a flash of admiration. "Your Majesty is the ruler of the world."

Emperor Shi smiled smugly, is there any need to talk about it?

"Your father asked you to come?" He said while clearing the books on the table, "What did he tell you?"

Hearing this, Xiao Chuo's face turned red, he lowered his head slightly and didn't dare to look at him, but soon he raised his head again, his eyes were misty, "Your Majesty, why should you ask why you know it, now that my country is ruined and my family is ruined, How will His Majesty humiliate me?"

Emperor Shi looked up at her, a little surprised.

"Your Majesty started threatening ten years ago, and now he has fulfilled his wish. He wants to punish us for the crime of ignorance! We have been frightened for more than ten years, and now His Majesty has come down.
Your Majesty has killed so many people, is there anything else you want to humiliate, and what else do you want from me?"

Seeing her talking more and more messy, maybe it was nervous, maybe it was fear, maybe it was shame, so that the more she talked, the more messy she was.

Emperor Shi beckoned her to sit beside him, but he was not angry, he always felt that his temper had become much milder these years, not as free and easy as he had experienced thousands of sails, maybe a little, not too much.

It is more likely that the more he has, the less he cares, and he is more magnanimous. Although Emperor Shi usually seems to be very casual, deep down in his heart, he has always been a rational and cruel person.

"Come here." He directly pulled Xiao Chuo to his side, put the nervous person on his lap, and looked at this legendary woman in his mind with a rather complicated look.

Maybe she is no longer a legend, but she is. If so, if those halos fade away, can the person in front of him still make Emperor Shi's heart flutter.

Those problems are nothing to worry about here, after all, Emperor Shi has always been a man of action, and he will know if he tries it.

"I'm not here to humiliate you." Emperor Shi said anxiously, "If they had sent you to Daliang ten years ago and stopped invading the border, hundreds of thousands of Liao troops would not have died, and many people could still sit back and relax. Their spring and autumn dreams."

As he said that, his big hand has been unceremoniously extended from Xiao Chuo's collar.

"At that time I was only seven or eight years old!" Xiao Chuo had tears in his eyes, "You killed so many people in Guanbei, I hate you to death!"

Emperor Shi wiped away her tears with his other hand, "Wherever the sun and moon shine, and where the mountains and rivers go, are all my land, so I am the Lord of the world, the Son of Heaven of China.

The chaos in China is the opportunity for you to take advantage of. Now the world is settled, just like the Han and Tang stories. There is nothing more than a reincarnation. The Liao Kingdom should also return to its place.

You have read so many books, you should know the truth. Your emperor Taizu said that he wanted to be Han Gaozu, and his courage is commendable, but he is not Han Gaozu, but I am. "

"But why can't we Khitan people be Han Gaozu?" The little girl still tried to hold down his big hand, staring at him with big watery eyes and said unconvinced.

"Because I'm here." Emperor Shi was a little anxious, "It's the destiny, I obey the heavens, the world will be equal, the universe will be cleared, and the destruction of hundreds of thousands of Liao troops is the best example. Be good, let go of your hands."

After hearing this, Xiao Chuo finally obediently let go of his big hand.

At the beginning of September, Emperor Shi prepared to lead the [-] Chinese troops to withdraw southward first. At this time, the war to exterminate the Liao Dynasty was not completely over, but the situation was completely clear. There were many prisoners in the prison cart, including Yeluxian's family and Yelusha's family. Yelu Xiezhen's family, and some members of the Liao royal family.

Along with Emperor Shi, there were more than 100 carts of gold and silver treasures looted from the capital of the Liao Kingdom, Xiao Siwen's family, and tens of thousands of troops.

The mighty procession stretched for tens of miles, and the flags were unceasing. Xiao Chuo rode a well-behaved pony and followed Emperor Shi. As a token of comfort and trust for her, Emperor Shi allowed her to bring her beautiful Saber.

However, her riding and martial arts are obviously much worse than her sister's.

Emperor Shi's army returned triumphantly, and the final war against the Liao Kingdom in the east is still going on. Today, the main body of Daliao still has two parts, one is the grassland in the northwest, and the other is Liaodong in the east.

The army of Wang Shenqi and Lin Renzhao had blocked Liaodong, and the next step was to wait for Yelu Mozhi, who was trapped in Liaoyang, to surrender.

If he does not surrender, after the winter, when the weather warms up, Emperor Shi will launch the Liaodong Campaign with Wang Shenqi and Lin Renzhao to completely retake Liaodong. .

At the beginning of September, the weather in Daliang became cooler and the autumn wind was bleak, but the streets and alleys were still hot.

With the unification of the world in recent years, business travelers from Jiangnan, Lingnan, Wuyue, Shu and other places have successively arrived in Daliang along the river and waterway, and Daliang, which is located in the water and land transportation hub, has exploded with unprecedented vitality.

Compared with the past ten years, it has become more and more prosperous and bustling, people come and go, and the scale continues to expand. People's confidence in the imperial court is getting stronger and stronger. It seems that the end of the troubled times of more than a hundred years is just around the corner.

In mid-August, the battle report from the north came, which gave the whole country great confidence and pride. The whole country rejoiced, His Majesty marched directly to the capital of the Liao Kingdom, and captured 50 Liao soldiers (actually, the total number of armies from all walks of life was [-]. Left and right), captured the false emperor of Liao!
