Fu Song

Chapter 580

Many people who are familiar with the Zhao Song Palace in Tokyo City, when they first came to Zhongjing and saw the Daliao Jianjian Palace, they would feel as if they were in a dream.

This palace is almost a replica of Zhao Song's palace.

I dare not say that they are exactly the same, but there are [-] to [-]% similarities.

Even the names of many palace gates and halls are exactly the same.

Anli, the emperor's residence, is unheard of by people. There is Xuande in the south, Gongchen in the north, stretching for five miles, and Baisi Yuntun.

This is a word of admiration for the new imperial city of Zhongjing after the completion of the construction in Zhongjing.

In fact, for an imperial palace, whether it is the imperial palace of Zhao Song Dynasty or the imitation in Zhongjing, it is relatively narrow, which also makes many central government offices have to be arranged outside the imperial palace.

Many people wonder why Xiao Chuo did this?
The reason why the Zhaosong Palace was built narrowly was because the Zhaosong Palace was built on the original site of the Xuanwu Army’s Jiedushizhi. It was barely built on the old site, but Zhongjing does not have this problem, there are plenty of places.

At that time, it was not that no one suggested to Xiao Chuo, but Xiao Chuo lightly said that the country is in a difficult situation, we must be diligent and thrifty, and we should not be extravagant and wasteful, so he blocked it.

But looking back now, Xiao Chuo may not have had other intentions at that time.

Empress Chengtian's dissatisfaction with the current official system of the Northern and Southern Courts of Daliao is nothing new. She believes that this is an unprovoked domestic confrontation between the Han and Khitan people, adding many contradictions for nothing. In the eyes of the Empress Dowager Chengtian, In the territory of Daliao, there is only one kind of people, and that is the people of Daliao.

Political reform is imminent.

This was a problem that no one dared to touch in the past, because it greatly violated the power of the Khitan people, and the Khitan people have always regarded the Daliao as the foundation of their country.Whoever wants to do this will think that he wants to bring disaster to the world.

But now, all this has changed.

The prestige of Empress Dowager Chengtian is incomparable, and no one dares to touch her bad luck.

Want to give it a try?

Go and see Yeluxi, the former prince of Daliao!

Give yourself to kill yourself.

Look at Lin Ping, the former king of the South Courtyard!

owl head!

Take a look at the tribal chiefs, generals, and nobles who were captured because of their rebellion!

Genocide!

Since Xiao Chuo defeated Lin Ping in June and became the Empress Dowager Chengtian, the Great Cleansing has continued until now. For a full three months, on the vast land of Daliao, people's heads rolled everywhere and blood flowed like rivers.

The enemies of Empress Dowager Chengtian have basically disappeared in the Liao Kingdom.

Those who are not yet dead are also desperately hiding or disguising themselves. They show that they are more loyal and radical than the queen party.

The loose tribal alliance system will become a thing of the past,

The Daliao court will largely return power to the center,
A reform of the political system that imitated the Han Dynasty in the Central Plains has entered the drafting stage.

The system of three provinces and six ministries will become the next official system of Daliao.

Abolishing unnecessary yamen, reducing redundancy and complexity, the two brothers and sisters Xiao Cheng and Xiao Chuo adopted the same solution to the same matter.

Strictly speaking, Xiao Chuo is imitating Xiao Cheng.

But Xiao Chuo's implementation is much more difficult than Xiao Cheng's.

Xiao Cheng is painting on blank paper, but Xiao Chuo is going to carry out a subversive reform in a country that is extremely large and highly mature in politics.

Without this rebellion, Xiao Chuo would have never thought about doing this.

It was through this rebellion that Xiao Chuo not only eliminated the imperial party headed by Lin Ping and some other opponents, but also took this opportunity to greatly expand her own influence and power.

After the rebellion of Wugu Enemy Commander Commander was quelled, when Guo Xie led five thousand heavy cavalry, Wanyan Yinshu led three thousand Jurchen light cavalry, and when Xiao Siwen returned with tens of thousands of Leizhai troops, All voices of doubt have all subsided.

It was also at this time that many people who participated in the planning of this matter finally understood Xiao Chuo's original intention of planning this matter, and it was not as simple as killing Lin Ping.

Thinking about it now, it was nothing to Xiao Chuo to want to kill Lin Ping.

And taking advantage of this opportunity to climb to the top of power in one fell swoop and completely remove all obstacles in front of her so that Xiao Chuo can implement her own ideas of governing the country as she likes is what she really wants.

Now, many people also want to understand and understand this matter,
These people didn't think there was anything wrong with Xiao Chuo's actions,
On the contrary, they cast their eyes on each other in admiration.

On the contrary, his loyalty to Xiao Chuo has been raised to a higher level.

Even some opponents have changed course.

After all, when you find a person that you can't resist with all your might, then joining his camp may be a better choice.

There is no shortage of talents in Liao.

The imperial examination held every year like the Song Dynasty, not only a large number of Han Chinese took the exam, but also many Khitan people participated. People like Yelujun and Yeluzhen all got the status of Jinshi.

The two countries have exchanged and confronted each other for hundreds of years. The influence of the Song Dynasty on the Liao Kingdom, especially the influence on the culture, is quite far-reaching.

But now that Xiao Chuo is in power, the influence will only get deeper and deeper.

The leader of this political reform was a figure familiar to both Song and Liao. His name was Luo Song.

The former Prime Minister of Zhao Guo.

Luo Song, who had always been extremely stubborn, finally bowed his head to Xiao Chuo, agreed to be an official in the Liao Kingdom, and took the lead in taking charge of the entire political reform this time.

The price Xiao Chuo paid was to release all the members of the Luo family, except his eldest son Yimen, and send them back to the south.

Luo Song originally wanted everyone to be sent away, but it was a pity that Xiao Chuo refused.

In Xiao Chuo's words, if everyone is gone and you, Mr. Luo, have no entanglements, I won't be able to let you do things with your heart!Leave your eldest son alone, so I can take good care of you.

Luo Song was helpless.

Luo Song is indeed the best candidate.

Needless to say, he is knowledgeable, he also has the experience of leading the overall situation, and he is very familiar with the political system.

Although he came from Zhao and Song Dynasties, he knew the Liao Kingdom very well, but he had nothing to do with all the political forces in the Liao Kingdom, so he could do business without any ties.

In Baowen Pavilion, Xiao Chuo sat cross-legged behind the table, and the little emperor Ye Luxian sat beside him, and below, more than a dozen important officials gathered.

What is discussed here are all things that cannot be solved by each department, and require the cooperation of other departments or the empress dowager to make a decision.

After everything was dealt with, Xiao Chuo would ask everyone to explain to the little emperor in detail why they did this, what were the advantages and disadvantages of doing so, and so on.

In this way, the efficiency of handling affairs will be much lower. Usually, a meeting that can be completed in an hour can take half a day or even a day. However, many ministers have no complaints. Everyone said that she had absolutely no intention of seizing power, and that she would definitely return the power when the emperor came of age.

And now, it is time for the emperor to gain experience.

Even Yelu Hongzhen, who cultivated himself at home, felt relieved after hearing Xiao Chuo's actions. For some guys who came to the door and said something unfavorable to the queen, he was angrily reprimanded and kicked out. From now on, it will no longer be allowed to enter.

The demeanor of the queen mother is like no other for a while.

"I'm reporting to the Empress Dowager, Yelumin, the commander of the Shan army, has come to see you outside the hall!" The eunuch Huang Cheng tiptoed to Xiao Chuo's side and said in a low voice.

Xiao Chuo's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Let him in!"

Seeing Huang Cheng go out, the dozen or so ministers in the room were watching their noses and noses and their hearts.

There is no doubt that Yelumin is the first confidant of the Empress Dowager Chengtian, and no one can compare with him, not even Sun Jucai and his son.

However, what this guy did in Tokyo, which was reported a few days ago, still shocked everyone, and even gloated.

Daliao is the Chinese orthodoxy that has been contending with the Song Dynasty for hundreds of years, and Daliao is a country that claims to be civilized.

But what did Yelumin do this time?
And let's see how the Queen Mother will deal with this guy next!
Anyway, this incident has now spread all over the world, and the impact is quite bad.

Not to mention the Song people, even the Han people and the Khitan people felt that this matter had gone too far.

"The last general, Yelumin, has met the queen mother!"

Stepping into the hall, Yelumin knelt down on one knee, put his hand on his chest, and kowtowed deeply.

Xiao Chuo's face was frosty, he looked left and right, suddenly picked up an inkstone on the table, smashed his head at Yelumin, and cursed: "Look at the good deeds you have done, how will it end now?"

Xiao Chuo hit the inkstone very accurately, and the inkstone hit Yelumin's forehead accurately. Of course, Yelumin didn't hide, but stuck his neck straight to receive the inkstone, and even moved his head a little bit, for fear that Xiao Chuo would Chuo this smashed into the air.

The inkstone fell to the ground with a clang,
Blood immediately flowed down.

Some people who originally wanted to watch a good show immediately lost the idea of ​​taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble.

Well, the first confidant is the first confidant,

The Empress Dowager's inkstone is considered to be her sex.

"The last general has a deep blood feud with that Cui thief. If he is not killed, the last general will feel really hard."

"If you kill, you kill. How can you kill like this? Wouldn't you lose the benevolence and benevolence of our great country?"

"This is just the general's personal enmity, and the general is willing to accept any punishment." Yelumin let the blood smear all over his face without wiping it off.

Xiao Chuo glanced sideways at Huang Cheng, "Are you blind?"

Huang Cheng screamed, and immediately ran out like flying, and in a blink of an eye, an imperial doctor was brought in.

The imperial doctor frantically treated Yelumin's wound.

"Let's talk about it, what should we do about the commander-in-chief?" Xiao Chuo looked at everyone.

Everyone couldn't help but Qiqi felt angry in their hearts, what else could they do?Just do it!
After a moment of silence, Xiao Siwen said: "A mere Cui Ang is really nothing to worry about. This matter will pass after it cools down."

"Not bad!"

"Why don't you let the commander-in-chief go to the north and other places to inspect, there is a lot of chaos there now, just take advantage of the commander-in-chief's prestige, let the commander-in-chief return to Zhongjing after the news passes!"

Everyone talked a lot, but they all came up with ideas, and no one mentioned how to hold Yelumin accountable.

"In that case, let's do as everyone said!" Xiao Chuo nodded, "But Yelumin did go too far this time, so he will be fined for one year, and then go to the north to guard for a while!"

This is equivalent to nothing.

But what can everyone say?

I can only praise the Empress Dowager Shengming one by one.

As for the little emperor, I'm afraid he still thinks that Yelumin is a good guy who loves to be kind and hateful!Only adoration, there will feel that there is something wrong with this thing.

All the ministers bid farewell and left, but Yelumin was left behind.

"Qin Min, do you have any opinions on letting you go to the north? The north is not comparable to the south, nor can it compare to Zhongjing and Shangjing. Over there, it is really a place of bitter cold, and the rebel army of the Wugu Dilie Commanding Army Division has just been wiped out. , and it’s very chaotic, you’ll have nothing to do when you go there.”

In front of Yelumin, Xiao Chuo also stopped holding it, but leaned lazily on the seat.

"It's exactly what the last general wants. In fact, the last general doesn't want to stay in the south anymore."

"It was Zheng Yong who stimulated you?" Xiao Chuo smiled.

Yelumin also knew that Xiao Chuo's affairs in the army must not be hidden, so he nodded immediately and said: "Not only Zheng Yong, but also Wang Zhu earlier, they were all my good brothers, but now, one by one, they all turned against each other. gone."

"Then you still keep Zheng Yong by your side and don't kill him? I'm afraid he wants to kill you all the time?"

"It's not so easy to kill me!" Yelumin smiled and said, "I also made an agreement with Zheng Yong that he can only assassinate me once every three months. I work."

"He agreed?"

"Promise, he still has a few brothers in my hands!" Yelumin smiled and said: "Zheng Yong is a strong fighter, this time going to the north, he can be used, and let him deal with it." Those barbarians in the north, he doesn't have any lumps in his heart, just take it easy, maybe one day, this person can really be used by us."

"It's up to you, but you have to be careful. Don't be killed by Zheng Yong. At that time, I don't even have the name to avenge you. After all, you promised it yourself." Xiao Chuo said with a smile: "Beidi respects heroes. If you do this, people will look up to you. It may offset a lot of bad influences on what you did before."

"In the north, does the Queen Mother have any special orders?" Yelumin asked.

"Of course!" Xiao Chuo nodded: "In the next few years, we will reform politically and gather strength, but we can rest, but we cannot let the enemy rest. In the northwest direction, the Western Army must not relax, after you gain a firm foothold in the north, you can plan this matter."

"understand!"

"In the Western Regions, my elder brother and the others have not yet established themselves completely, so we can go dig their corners." Xiao Chuo laughed.
