The fox minister in the late Tang Dynasty

Chapter 328 The Fatty Old Man With a Strong Desire to Survive

".Seeing you, I think of her, and I feel so sad in my heart."

"Her name is Tang Baoer."

"Believe it or not, we are innocent."

"You lost a lot of blood last night, I'll bandage you."

"...at most a shudder in your body."

"If you don't do business, you can invest. Recently, I found a new way to make money, but I still need to study it carefully."

Long memories, intermittent words surged, and the woman under the cloak was none other than Shuluyue Liduo, or Shuluping, the current Khitan 'Empress Yingtian Damingdi'.

She has been Yelu Abaoji's woman since she was a child, and she is also responsible for the establishment of the Khitan Kingdom. If her husband hadn't adopted her strategy and tricked Abaoji's brothers to come here, and forced them, Khitan would be where it is today.

What a smart person she is, she didn't care about this business at first, but when she heard it in the deep palace, especially when the word 'investment' appeared, she immediately remembered the person named Geng Qing ten years ago.

After finding out that Geng Qing was not the one who was doing these things in Shangjing, he sent people over to find out, apprehend, and interrogate. The fat man who arrived said the name of the other party, and Yue Liduo smiled on his face.

Everything was as she expected.

The attendant outside brought a chair and put it in the cell, said in a low voice: "The queen sit down," and stepped aside.Yue Liduo took off her cloak, revealing her beautiful face.

Ten years ago, she was in her early thirties. In the past ten years, the years have left marks on her face. As a woman on horseback, her body is still tall and slim.

Yue Liduo sat down on the chair, leaned against the back of the chair and put one leg up, the majesty of the phoenix eyes added a bit of charm.

"So, Geng Qing asked you to come? How many years have you been in Khitan? Where will the money from this investment end up?"

The woman looked at Zhao Hongjun on the torture rack with a smile, and there was an extra copy of some information about him in her hand, which was collected from various places by the people sent recently. Shanjun, which means 'treasure of coral', is composed of Khitan Han Chinese.

Compared with Abaoji's [-] leather army, the equipment and numbers are much lower, but it can also be seen from its status in Khitan. In the past dynasties of the Central Plains, it is rare to see a queen who can directly control the military.

Such a character, Zhao Hongjun on the torture rack can naturally see that he is not a good stubble, but the other party didn't directly accuse him of crimes, and he knew in his heart that this woman probably didn't know about the 'trick'.

Zhao Hongjun probably understood that the woman in front of him should be Shuluping, the Empress of Khitan, when the waiter said the phrase 'the queen sits comfortably'.

Before coming to Khitan, he had heard Geng Qing talk about the war in Hebei, so he must pay attention to this woman when he comes to Khitan.

"The Good and Beautiful Queen"

Zhao Hongjun endured the pain in his chest, and his mind was running fast, organizing vocabulary. His purpose of coming to Khitan was now in front of him, how could he not seize such an opportunity.

After the previous panic, he calmed down at this moment, still pretending to be flustered on his fat face, and said hastily: "It's true that I was sent by Geng Qing when I came down here, but that was also kindness, as you have seen, the nobleman who does business with me , which one can lose money? Besides, Geng Qinggui is King Yong of Daliang, but he is far away in Chang'an and Longyou, and there are thousands of miles away from here, and there are many enemies around, so it is impossible to reach out to Khitan and make trouble with the queen."

"Oh? That person who claimed to be a small official back then became King Yong? No wonder he didn't like my invitation."

Yue Liduo looked at the fat man with a sneer, fingertips poking at the corners of the paper, and her voice became more indifferent as she moved, "Since you are King Yong and sit in Chang'an, it is very rich there. People run under their hands to make money?"

"Queen, who would think too much money?"

"It seems that you are not telling the truth!" The woman threw the paper in her hand and shouted sharply: "Use torture, chop off one of his arms, and feed him to eat—"

The Khitan men turned around and went to get the torture tools, and pulled out a saw, which was mottled with dark red blood stains. The stench made Zhao Hongjun feel nauseous. My heart was also panicked, and I hurriedly shouted in fright: "Queen, the little one has something to say, something to say!"

The chainsaw hovered, the Khitan man turned his head to look at the queen, the woman nodded and told them to back away, her voice was cold: "Say."

"King Yong said that he will never forget you"

At this time, Zhao Hongjun was also broken. Anyway, what happened that night, Geng Qing said vaguely, and he just talked nonsense, not to mention that women are naturally emotional, and they can only lose their minds and become agitated. He might not be able to resist the bunch of tricky questions that were still asked calmly by this woman.

As soon as he said that, the Khitan man who was interrogating in the prison was stunned, and the attendants waiting outside were startled, and they instinctively lowered their heads, not even daring to look at the queen.

Over there, Yue Liduo frowned, if her husband heard these words, the couple would definitely feel disgusted, so she slapped the armrest and stood up.

"Nonsense, kill him!"

Left and right took knives and went up. Zhao Hongjun struggled on the rack, trying to avoid the chainsaw that was pressing down on his neck.

He yelled at the back of the woman who turned around and walked to the cell door: "Queen, it's true, King Yong asked the little one to come to Beijing to do business and make Khitan's life better, it's all for you!!"

When the figure at the door stopped, Shuluping turned his face to the side, his whole face was flushed, not because of embarrassment because of these words, but because of the anger of the old fat man on the rack.

Zhao Hongjun was aware of the woman's anger, and now he could only bite the bullet and continue to shout: "King Yong also said that there is no way to have a child, if it is about ten years old, you have to help the two women, you can't favor one over the other, in the future I don’t have any money and I’m being wronged. The little ones are really just following orders. The queen is a wise person. If you want to get angry, you should go to King Yong. Why are you angry with me, a little man!”

While the saw fell, tearing the flesh, the figure standing at the prison door over there seemed to come up with a sentence from memory, 'I gave you a chill. '

Yue Liduo gritted her teeth, and finally understood the meaning of this sentence, she suddenly yelled: "Stop." The woman's eyes were red, she was more than forty years old, after all, she was a woman, panting Rough breath, chest heaving violently, it took a while to calm down, waved to let the two people over there release the old fat man.

"I will find out everything, if there is a fake, your whole family will not keep a single one!"

Zhao Hongjun was untied, and as soon as his feet fell to the ground, he hurriedly knelt down on the ground, and the figure leaving outside the fence bowed and kowtowed.

"Send off the queen respectfully, little one, thank the queen for not killing me!"

When the person walked away, he immediately limply lay down on the ground, gasping for breath, walking in front of the ghost gate, his whole body was weak and weak.

'If I wasn't smart, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to survive tonight.I fucking admire myself."

As for the nonsense just now, compared with being able to survive, it is not so important. If you wait for a while, what if the woman sees her cleverness and lets it go?
Probably in this way of thinking.

Outside the dark prison cell, the woman walked through the long corridor and got into a carriage that concealed people's eyes. As the night slowly moved, she put down her water glass and whispered to the attendants who were walking outside: "Don't let today's words go out. Get rid of those two people in the prison."

"Yes."

The voice of the attendant, Yue Liduo's thoughts have already drifted away rapidly. About the old fat man's words just now, he is also thinking about it. The eldest son Yelubei was nine years old ten years ago, and the second son Yelu Deguang is about the war in Hebei. Born in the next four years, as for the youngest son Yelu Honggu, he could not.

The only possibility is that the second daughter Yelv Zhigu.

The memory of ten years ago is not so clear, especially when it comes to menstruation, whether it is true or not, it needs to be carefully clarified.

The carriage went away to the black long street, the dark sky gradually brightened, the sun pierced the eastern sky, pushed the misty Qingming along the land to the Central Plains, crossed the long Yellow River, the majestic pass, the Jinghe River, the Weishui River On the intertwined land, the bustling and huge city gradually came to life.

On the rejuvenated long street, what greeted the early risers was a few loud roars from the countryside west of the city, like thunder falling to the ground.

A huge cloud of smoke dispersed, and the figure sitting on a wooden platform yawned and waved away the drifting smoke.

"Refill, try again, make a note!"

The smoke dissipated, and the figure sitting on the chair was wearing a loose black uniform, with a beard growing on his dark face.

Geng Qing is in his thirties this year.
