The journey to the heavens starts from the underground station

Chapter 147 Ordered by Heaven, Longevity and Prosperity (two chapters in one)

The city walls on both sides of the gap in the northeast corner of Liaoyang City were quickly occupied and defended by the Song army. The follow-up troops climbed up the city walls and quickly attacked and advanced to eliminate the remaining enemies on the city walls.There were also several battalions of soldiers who entered the city along the gap and mopped up the enemy.

If you break it at one point, it will collapse at the touch of a finger.

The Liao soldiers knew that the general situation was over, and there were not many people who knelt and surrendered.

After breaking through, the soldiers had no intention of fighting, and many Liao generals cut their own throats in despair, offering their last loyalty to the old empire.

On the high platform outside the city, Li Yu was dressed in armor, with a sword hanging from his waist, and a scarlet cloak fluttering in the wind on his shoulders. Holding a telescope in his hand, he saw that the attacking troops had successfully entered the city, with a confident smile on his face.

"The Liao Kingdom is dead!"

Su Zhe stood next to Li Yu, staring blankly at the siege battle in full swing, feeling extremely entangled in his heart.

The Liao Kingdom was destroyed, and the Song Dynasty eliminated its century-old enemy. Su Zhe should be happy, but seeing the wolf-like soldiers in front of him, Su Zhe felt very uncomfortable.

This is the master of tigers and wolves who can cross the sea and destroy Liao!But such an army is not under the control of the imperial court, but a private soldier secretly trained by a prince!
Su Zhe took a peek at Li Yu who was concentrating on the battlefield, and sighed heavily.

King Wu has such a team of tigers and wolves in his hands, if he is disobedient...he will be safe!King Wu definitely has the heart of disobedience!He even burned the decree, and the angels who delivered the decree were castrated!His disobedience is clearly revealed!

Su Zhe didn't object to King Wu's ascension to the throne. Anyway, it was Zhao Song who exchanged it. What he was worried about was that the emperor held the military power, and the lives of scholars would be difficult in the future!
"Little Bachelor Su, the Liao Kingdom is dead, I am not happy to see you?"

Su Zhe's thoughts were interrupted by Li Yu's sudden questioning, and Su Zhe hurriedly squeezed out an ugly smile: "Ah, I'm happy, I'm happy, I congratulate Your Highness."

In Liaoyang City, a high platform was built in the imperial palace.

Yelu Hongji staggered down the high platform with a lonely expression.

The sound of shouting and killing had already spread into the palace, and from time to time there were panicked eunuchs and maids running around, or taking advantage of the fire to loot the valuables in the palace.

"This is the time for the country to perish!" Yelu Hongji hugged the emperor's grandson Yelu Yanxi, tears streaming down his face.

"Your Majesty, I will wait for His Majesty's guards to go out and go to Shangjing to regroup!"

A group of blood-soaked personal guards hurriedly knelt down in front of Yelu Hongji.

"Zhen..." Yelu Hongji raised his hand, looked at these loyal bodyguards, wanted to say something but didn't say anything, a thousand words turned into a long sigh: "Alas..."

"Your Majesty, let's go!" The commander of the personal guard persuaded again.

"I... I won't go!" After a long sigh, Yelu Hongji's feet softened, and he sat down on the steps under the high platform, and pushed Yelu Yanxi forward fiercely, into the arms of the guard: "You Wait, protect the emperor and grandson to go to Shangjing! If you are lucky enough to escape, you will welcome your emperor and grandson to ascend the throne in Shangjing;

"Your Majesty..."

"Okay, let's go!" Yelu Hongji waved his hand: "The Song army will soon enter the palace, don't waste time! I am getting old, I want to stay here, and see with my own eyes who is the king of the country. Who! Go! Go!"

"Your Majesty... Take care!" With tears in his eyes, the commander of the personal guard rolled down and kowtowed heavily, stood up and wiped away his tears, hugged the grandson, and led his men to leave quickly.

It's a pity that the moat that used to protect the city has become the railings on the cage today. The army is heavily surrounded, and there are small warships patrolling back and forth on the river. It is hopeless to escape.

After the Song army entered the city, part of the Liao army knelt down and surrendered, while some still resisted tenaciously. The soldiers began to wipe out the remaining Liao army in the city. The tragic street fighting continued for a day and a night. The army caused many casualties, but it did not help.

By the afternoon of the fifth day of the fifth day, there was no Liao army in the city who dared to resist. The soldiers had already opened the palace, and all the courtiers of the Liao Kingdom were escorted to the square in front of the main hall of the palace. Only the main hall was surrounded by groups and had not yet been attacked.

Li Yu put on an armor engraved with a dragon pattern. The black armor was polished brightly, and the scarlet cloak fell behind him. He rode on a horse, entered Liaoyang City under the heavy guard of Jin Yiwei, and went straight to the palace.

"Your Highness, the northern and southern courtiers of the Liao Kingdom, as well as many princes and clans, including the emperor's grandson Yelu Yanxi, the power center of the entire Liao Kingdom is here!" Excited, conquering the capital of a country and regaining the homeland of the Han people is an unrivaled feat no less than Yan Ran's Leshi. Although he is not the main general, from now on, his second son's name will definitely be remembered in history!
"Good job!" Li Yu praised, raised his horsewhip, and pointed at the princes and ministers of the Liao Kingdom: "Everyone will be imprisoned! We can arrange to raid the house later! Where is Yelu Hongji?"

"Return to Your Highness, Lord Liao is in the hall." Lu Qiusuo pointed to the main hall, with a slightly tangled expression: "Lord Liao has a horizontal knife on his neck, and I want to see you by name."

After all, he is the lord of a country, he has his own dignity, and he dare not make mistakes when he asks for it.

"understood."

Li Yu nodded to lead the way, and Lu Xiuyuan, who was on the left and right of the guard, hurriedly called a team of Jin Yiwei to follow closely.

Pushing open the hall door, one can see at a glance that in the empty hall, there is an old man in brocade robe sitting on the dragon chair behind the table.

The old man was Yelu Hongji, he was leaning on a knife, his eyes were slightly squinted, and there was no trace of anger on his face.Hearing the opening of the palace door, Yelu Hongji opened his eyes instantly, with sharp eyes, staring at Li Yu who walked in.

"You are the King Wu of the Song Kingdom? I heard that you are almost old, but I didn't expect to look so young." Staring at Li Yu for a while, Yelu Hongji suddenly smiled and said.

"This king looks young and doesn't look old. This king still disdains and fears a subjugated king." Li Yu knew what Yelu Hongji meant, but he suspected that the real King Wu would not dare to come out to meet him, so he let a young man Just pretending.Li Yu is also very helpless. Since time travel, his appearance seems to have been frozen. In the past eight years, there is only a beard on his lips.

"That being the case, can the guards retreat?" Yelu Hongji stood up, put the knife in his hand aside, and walked slowly away from Li Yu with bare hands.

"Why not? Xiuyuan, take the brothers out of the hall and wait!" Li Yu ordered with a slight smile.He is naturally not afraid of Yelu Hongji, the pistol and rifle are always loaded in the portable space.

"Yes!" Lu Xiuyuan was good at this, he never ambiguously obeyed orders.

The guard pushed away, and there were only two people left in the empty hall.

"How will King Wu treat my Khitan people?" Yelu Hongji asked slowly while sitting on the ground.

"The Sinicization of Khitan has been deep, and Hu and Han live together in the Liao Kingdom." Li Yu also sat down, looked directly into Yelu Hongji's eyes, and replied without thinking: "As long as they keep their own place, this king promises to treat them equally, and their treatment is no different from that of Han people. Not only Khitan people, but also Bohai people and Xi people, as long as they obey Wang Hua, they are naturally the king's subjects."

"That's good. On behalf of the Khitan people, I would like to thank the King of Wu!" Yelu Hongji clasped his fists and cupped his hands, tears welling up in his eyes, "I am incompetent, it's just that my ancestor's foundation has been lost, and I am ashamed of my ancestors!"

"Your Majesty doesn't have to be like this. This king will treat His Majesty generously according to the gift of two kings and three respects. I am willing to write a letter and go to Bianliang to protect Your Majesty as a Duke of Liao. Your Majesty and your grandson, for the rest of your life, you will be rich and prosperous, and you will have no worries about food and drink. Didn’t Your Majesty once say that you would like future generations to be born in China? You see, without future generations, your wish will come true!”

"Two Kings and Three Kes? Hehe!" Hearing this, Yelu Hongji laughed bitterly, and said sarcastically, "If someone else said this, I would believe it, but you... Zhao Song? The descendant of Zhao Guangyi, hehe!"

"I... Fuck!" Li Yu, who was speechless when Yelu Hongji choked on a word, could only curse in a low voice.

Yelu Hongji had a reason for saying this.

Two Kings and Three Kes are one of the guest ceremonies. All the dynasties of the past dynasties confer titles on the descendants of the previous royal family, donate them to the fiefs, and offer sacrifices to the ancestral temples to show respect, show the inheritance of the dynasty, and mark the orthodoxy.

Shun took Yao's son Danzhu as his guest; Yu granted Shun's son Shang Jun Yu Yu; Shang destroyed Zhou Xing, King Wu enfeoffed Chen with the descendants of Shun, Qi with the descendants of Xia, and Song with the descendants of Shang.

Zhou Zi Nanjun of the Han Dynasty, Zhou Chengxiu Hou; Shanyang Gong and An Le Gong of the Wei Dynasty; Chenliu King of the Jin Dynasty;

In the Southern Dynasties, King Lingling, King Ruyin, King Baling, and King Jiangyin of Song Qiliang and Chen Zhi; Sui’s Han Guogong, Jie Guogong, and Langya Gong; Tang’s Feng Guogong; Song Taizu’s King Zheng.

It's a pity that things changed when Zhao Lao Er was there. The God of Gaolianghe was not particular about chariots, slept with other people's wives, and even poisoned him to death... It's a good idea!But his retribution finally fell on his descendant Zhao Ji!
The identity of this "Wu Wang Zhao Kai" is not exactly that of Zhao's second branch!
"This... this king can swear an oath!"

"No need, the king of subjugation, how can he still live in the world with face." After saying something to Li Yu, Yelu Hongji suddenly smiled miserably: "If the king of Wu has the heart to protect my grandson's life, I will be grateful gone."

After finishing speaking, Yelu Hongji got up, staggered back and walked to the table, took two brocade boxes, one large and one small, and brought them back and placed them in front of Li Yu.

"What is the meaning of this, Your Majesty?"

"This is the six seals of my Daliao emperor. I have lost my army and lost my country today. This seal should be presented." Yelu Hongji pointed to a slightly larger brocade box. After speaking, he pointed to the small brocade box next to him and raised his head. , Staring at Li Yu's eyes: "This is Chuan Guo Yuxi!"

"Chuan Guo Yuxi?" Li Yu's pupils dilated instantly, and his breathing became rapid.

"It was made by the First Emperor, written by Li Si, and passed down from generation to generation in successive dynasties. I made a pilgrimage to Emperor Kaitai for ten years, and took the jade seal from Shi Jin in Zhongjing. This is the genuine imperial seal."

Li Yu didn't care about what Yelu Hongji said for a long time. He picked up the brocade box and opened the lid. He saw that there was a four-inch square jade seal inside, with a radius of four inches. Pick up the jade seal and look at its front carefully. It is missing a corner, and it is filled with gold. Eight seal characters of insects and birds are engraved on the jade seal. Shi".

Li Yu stained some ink pads, lifted his robe, picked up the jade seal and printed it, pressed it hard, and there was a piece of insect and bird seal characters on the hem of the robe. Li Yu identified it carefully, and finally confirmed that it was "Ordered by "Heaven, long life and eternal prosperity", I couldn't help but clutch the jade seal tightly.

"This seal, has King Wu thought about how to deal with it?" Looking at Li Yu's fiery eyes, Yelu Hongji couldn't help but want to confirm his guess.

Li Yu smiled slightly, showed him the printed text, and said: "Being ordered by the sky, you will live forever!"

"Haha! Hahahaha!" Yelu Hongji was taken aback, first he grinned silently, and then his laughter became louder and louder, tears flowed from his laughter, and his laughter echoed throughout the hall.

"Lord Song raises tigers, which will eventually devour people! Ridiculous! Ridiculous!"

Laughing loudly, Yelu Hongji staggered back, walked up to the knife, bent down, picked it up, and placed it across his neck.

"King Wu, don't forget what you promised me, treat the Khitan people kindly, and treat my grandson kindly!" Yelu Hongji let out a miserable laugh, and with all his strength, he was about to kill himself.

"Stop! Wait a minute!" Although Yelu Hongji had long seen that Yelu Hongji was determined to die, Li Yu quickly stopped him.

"What else is the King of Wu going to do? If you want to persuade me, then it's inconvenient to say it out! I'm so unkind, so that the foundation of my ancestors is lost, what face is there to live in the world!"

"No, Your Majesty, please wait first." Li Yu didn't intend to persuade him. Although a living Yelu Hongji would be more conducive to conquering the Liao Kingdom, Li Yu was more willing to honor him as an emperor.

Li Yu pointed to the knife in his hand: "Your Majesty is the emperor of Daliao. The emperor has the way of the emperor's death. How can he add a sword to his body? The head is different from the emperor's ceremonies! Come! Get poisoned wine!"

"So, thank you very much!"

These words moved Yelu Hongji.

Yelu Hongji threw away the knife in his hand, tidied up his clothes, and sat on the dragon chair again, with his back straight and his gaze circling the hall, as if he was in a court meeting on weekdays.

Not long after, the door of the main hall was pushed open, and Lu Xiuyuan walked in with a pottery pot in his hand, with a perplexed look on his face: "Your Highness, there is really no poisonous wine, or, do you think arsenic is okay?"

"Submit it!" Before Li Yu could speak, Yelu Hongji, who was sitting on the dragon chair, shouted loudly.

Li Yu pursed his mouth, Lu Xiuyuan understood, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to fetch the jug and bowl full of fine wine, untied the clay pot filled with arsenic, poured two taels of arsenic into the jug, covered the jug, and shook it evenly , poured another full bowl of wine, and presented it to Yelu Hongji.

"Lu Xiuyuan, serve Your Majesty on the road! Your Majesty, I will bury you in your mausoleum, and I hope you will be born in China in the next life! Go well!"

Unable to bear to see this generation of emperors come to an end, Li Yu held the Chuan Guoxi, bowed slightly to Yelu Hongji, turned around, sighed, walked out of the hall without looking back, and signaled Jin Yiwei to close the hall Door.

Li Yu stood on top of Danbi in front of the hall, adjusted his emotions, looked at the soldiers under his command who were standing in the square in front of him, took a deep breath, and raised the Chuanguo Yuxi over his head.

"Daliao is dead! Here is the Jade Seal of the Inherited Kingdom!"

The soldiers knelt down on one knee in unison, and suddenly broke out into a neat shout:
"Being ordered by the heavens, you will live forever! Long live Your Highness! Long live! Long live!"

Accompanied by the deafening shouts, Yelu Hongji in the hall took up the poisoned wine and drank it down in one gulp.
