back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 493
Yeluren was also an old and mature person, and in his opinion, Lu Chengqi's acting skills were extremely contemptuous in his heart.It's just that a successful politician must learn to act. Yeluren also understood Lu Chengqi first, so it's inconvenient to expose him.If it is exposed, then the righteousness of questioning based on reason will be gone.

At the moment his mind was spinning sharply, Yeluren first said in broken Chinese: "Your Majesty, thank you for your concern, our emperor is not injured, and there is no serious problem."

Lu Chengqi said with great concern: "It's so good. I have been friends with the emperor of your country for a long time, but it's a pity that I don't have the chance to meet. Sigh, I don't know when will I be able to meet your Majesty once?"

Yeluren thought in his heart: "That's easy. When I take over the Central Plains from Daliao, you will be a prisoner. As a subjugated king, His Majesty will definitely 'take care' of you!"

Lu Chengqi also said in his heart: "Hey, it's no wonder that the Liao Kingdom survived under my mischief! At that time, maybe we will meet in the prison!"

The two have their own ulterior motives, but on the surface they are in harmony, as if they are old friends who haven't seen each other for many years.Yeluren first said: "As He Zhengdan's envoy, I represent the Emperor of Daliao. Your Majesty seeing me is like seeing His Majesty of our country."

Lu Chengqi smiled and said: "That's true. Dashun and Daliao are old friends of the leading country. Speaking of which, Liao was established before Dashun. How can other small countries compare to such a fate? I don't know if your Majesty sent Did Yu Yue come here just to congratulate me on the day of Dashun Yuanzheng?"

At last he made the point clear, Yeluren was not ambiguous, and immediately said: "Of course there are other things."

"Oh, I'd like to know more." Lu Chengqi's acting skills were very good, and he pretended to be listening attentively.

Yeluren was contemptuous again before he said slowly: "After Yelu Chongyuan's rebellion last month, a group of Han people actually took advantage of the chaos to attack our Luanhe Palace in Daliao. At that time, our Majesty was still in Luanhe In the palace, I was a little frightened. After I led my troops back to the Luanhe Palace, the Han people had already retreated. May I ask Your Majesty, what's going on?"

Lu Chengqi was a little surprised and said: "There is such a thing?"

Yeluren also pretended to be surprised and said, "Don't tell me your Majesty doesn't know?"

"I really don't know." Lu Chengqi looked innocent, and Yeluren couldn't help it several times.

Taking a deep breath, Yeluren said slowly: "I was the deputy privy envoy of the North Court before. When I learned about the affairs of Beijing, I fought with this group of Han people. I recognized them as the frontier army of Fengsheng Prefecture in your country. The leader of the army The man is Yang Wenguang, the State Shepherd of Shengzhou."

Lu Chengqi frowned and said, "This is a serious crime! Without the military power of me and the Privy Council, how dare Yang Wenguang transfer troops without permission? If you didn't tell me, I would still be kept in the dark!"

Yeluren cursed in his heart: "You young brat, how dare you pretend to be stupid in front of me! Yang Wenguang is such a cautious person, how could he send troops for no reason, and still rush for a hundred miles! If there is no you here This stinky boy is playing tricks, who will believe it? Such words can only deceive a three-year-old child!"

Thinking so, Yeluren first said: "Your Majesty, since it is your country's fault that caused the traitor Yelu Chongyuan to escape to the desert and caused great losses to our Daliao, should we make up for it?"

After hearing this, Lu Chengqi thought to himself: "Hey, the meat show is coming, I knew you would say that!"

Pretentiously pondering for a while, he said: "This matter is indeed my fault, and I can't refute it. Why don't we send an imperial army into the desert, and cooperate with you to eliminate the rebels?"

Yeluren made thousands of calculations first, but he didn't expect that the little emperor would be so shameless.Even if Yelu Hongji was in his thirties and had been emperor for almost ten years, he was not as shameless as this little Han emperor.Could it be that the Han people are inherently intriguing and the Khitan people are so honest?Sending troops to help encircle and suppress the rebels sounds good, but in fact it is a poisonous snake hidden in the Liao Kingdom, which may explode and hurt people at any time.Even if the rebels like Yelu Chongyuan were wiped out together, the reality of the Liao Kingdom would be revealed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. As for the matter of chasing and suppressing the rebels, we only need our Liao Palace tent army, and you don't need to bother your country's elite soldiers." Yeluren first quickly rejected Lu Chengqi's "kindness", "My Majesty's intention is to Let Your Majesty make up for the palace tent army who was killed by the frontier army of Fengsheng Prefecture. Regardless of whether the Khitan or the Han people died in battle, they will be rewarded by Youzhao. Since it is your country's fault, you should give our country a certain amount of gold and silver , in order to appease our country's palace tent army. Otherwise, if there is any friction, the brotherhood between the two countries will be hurt..."

Hearing Yeluren's words so high-sounding first, Lu Chengqi also nodded sharply, and said, "I really need to give some compensation. It's just that according to the laws of my Dashun, I have to confirm first whether Yang Wenguang, the shepherd of Shengzhou Did you really send troops to Luanhe River? After confirmation, Yang Wenguang will be escorted back to Beijing, and he will be handed over to Dali Temple for interrogation first, and then the Ministry of Criminal Justice will file a case for review. After everything is safe, he can be convicted. Only after he is convicted, can the compensation be handed over to your country. This is where the law of Dashun lies, and there is nothing I can do about it. After all, Yang Wenguang is a second-rank official. Even if he is sent to prison, he must have sufficient evidence. To put it bluntly, I am afraid that I will not be able to testify based on Yu Yue's words alone... ..."

Yeluren had also studied "Da Shun Lv" first, and knew that Lu Chengqi was not lying.It's just that this time, how much time will it take?Immediately said: "Then please tell your Majesty, what kind of evidence is needed?"

"Of course we need all the physical evidence." Lu Chengqi said with a smile. "Since Yu Yue said that the frontier army from Fengsheng Prefecture attacked the Luanhe Palace in your country, there must be casualties in the battle between the two sides. If there is a frontier army who died in battle, it is necessary for the fallen leaves to return to their roots and the soul to return to their hometown. If you work hard, hand over the remains of my Dashun frontier army, won’t there be evidence for this?”

Yeluren was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect such a statement at all.Indeed, the frontier army in Fengsheng Prefecture was not invulnerable. Although the palace tent army was tired, both sides still had their own injuries.But who would have thought that coming to Dashun to "celebrate" the Yuanzheng Festival would bring a corpse?Isn't this a disgrace? Maybe before reaching the border, he was detained by the frontier army for insulting him.Of course Yeluren also knew that this was Lu Chengqi's excuse.Don't say that it will take a month to come and go from Fengshengzhou to Jingzhao Mansion.From Liao Kingdom to Jingzhao Mansion, it took less than a month, and it was even more impossible.How long can Yeluren stay in Dashun first? Do you still have to deal with the government affairs of the South Court?
It’s just that this statement is so upright that Yeluren couldn’t refute it first, so he could only admit it: “Since Your Majesty said so, I will send someone back to the country and bring the corpse of the frontier army in Fengsheng Prefecture. If you think about it, Your Majesty will not break his promise!”
