Concubine's three acres of pastoral garden

Chapter 313 The King Is Dead (17)
Shi Yan nodded and said: "This princess, please do whatever you want. In addition, I will also explain to the officers and soldiers who protect the princess. If the princess does not take the initiative, no one is allowed to approach the princess, including Lu Fusheng."

Xiang Lai nodded and said, "Thank you so much, General."

After speaking, she left the military tent and went back to her own tent with food.

Sitting on the chair, Shi Yan laughed at himself and said, "Hmph, you actually took me as your personal servant."

In this way, Xianglai began her longest trek since she came to this world.

She originally thought that the Southern Liao Army had a hard time at the first meal, but she never expected that it would become worse day by day. Except for the dried rice in the bowls of herself and Shi Yan, there were not a few grains of rice in the bowls of the sergeants. .

This situation did not improve until the food Shi Yan asked for from Beiliao arrived.

And after entering the border of Southern Liao Dynasty, the people I saw along the road were all sallow and emaciated, obviously the result of long-term starvation.

Xianglai was in the car looking out at the bare mountains and deserted farmland, his eyes were full of disbelief. One time he sat in Shi Yan's tent during a meal and asked tentatively: "General Shi, why did you take me with you?" Are they all going to the backcountry of Southern Liao? Why are the people so impoverished?"

Shi Yan was a little embarrassed by her question, and said cryptically: "Well... Nan Liao is not always like the princess saw it, it's just that the famine in this area has caused the people's life to be relatively poor. As long as the weather is good and the weather is good Nianying will be fine."

Xianglai saw at a glance that what he said was not true, and then chatted with the soldiers in his spare time, only then did he know that Tao Yu, the emperor of the Southern Liao Dynasty, was extravagant and built palaces and recruited beautiful women to fill his harem. Officials are also extremely extravagant, corrupt and perverting the law, extorting money, making people's lives difficult.

After Xianglai learned about it, she couldn't help complaining for Northern Liao. If it wasn't for the disaster of Luo Qian's mother and son in Northern Liao, after Luo Jinxing was firmly seated on the throne, Southern Liao would be safe and peaceful. Paying tribute to others, he was taken hostage again.

Only then did she understand why Shi Yan forced Beiliao to surrender even though he used such a despicable method. It turned out that the current Southern Liao needs a supply warehouse too much.

Because the soldiers guarding Xianglai resolutely carried out Shi Yan's orders, Lian Xiangjin, Lian Xiangyin and Lu Fusheng had no chance to get close to Xianglai, and they did not dare to drug Xianglai. The person is Shi Yan, if Shi Yan is accidentally poisoned to death, then there will be no place for them in the Northern and Southern Liao.

The farther south you go, the situation of the people in the Southern Liao is a little better. When you stay near the capital, the life of the Mian surnames seems to be similar to that of the Northern Liao, and the population here is much denser than that of the Northern Liao. If you don't look closely, I really thought that Nanliao was as prosperous as before.

Shi Yan's army stopped five hundred miles away from the capital, and only a few thousand troops accompanied him to the capital, and these troops stationed outside the capital again after arriving outside the capital.

Shi Yan strictly abides by the way of being a minister, and did not bring Xianglai and others into the city until he was summoned by the emperor.

The capital city of Southern Liao is full of traffic and crowded with crowds, and it is far more prosperous than other places. But Xianglai looked carefully, and saw that the clothes of ordinary people were outdated, and the items sold in the shops on the street were mainly cheap. People, that is, BMW Xiangche wearing gold and silver, Xianglai sighed secretly, the wine and meat of Zhumen stinks, and the roads are starved to death. The people in Nanliao are pitiful. I really don’t know how they live. They have fallen to this point and have not yet perished The emperor of Southern Liao was really lucky.

Thinking about it, she finds it funny again. She has reached this point, and she still thinks about these things. Besides, even though Beiliao is better than Nanliao, now it has become a vassal state of Nanliao again. This is thanks to Nanliao. Gifted by the rare and loyal minister Shi Yan!
Although after getting along these days, I found that Shi Yan can't be called a bad person, but he invaded his country and forced Beiliao to surrender with such cruel methods, but he can only be at odds with him. damn...

While she was thinking about it, Shi Yan had already taken her outside the Nanliao palace, and Bian Xiangjin, Lian Xiangyin and Lu Fusheng were walking with her.

When the three of them saw Xianglai, they looked at the enemy like a knife, and they were happy and proud when they saw the enemy's downfall.

Xianglai turned a blind eye to the eyes of the three of them, they were already like this, so what if they were looked at by their opponents, it was nothing more than a death, if they really died, they would be happy, I believe that they will be a thousand times more miserable than themselves after their death times.

After entering the palace, Xianglai was eye-opening. Compared with the palace of the Southern Liao Dynasty, the palace of the Northern Liao Dynasty was like the house of a rich family.

The royal palace of Southern Liao Dynasty can be described as Qionglou Yuyu, like a nine-day fairyland. No matter where you look, it is full of carved beams and painted buildings, resplendent and magnificent.

Xianglai searched hard for the memories of the two dynasties, and couldn't remember any buildings that could rival the palace of Nanliao.

Lian Xiangjin, who was walking with her, claimed to have seen the world, but she still couldn't help admiring when she got here, and whispered to Lian Xiangyin: "Eldest sister, this palace in Nanliao is really grand, this is the real emperor. If only I could live here too!"

After all, Lian Xiangyin is older than her, and she glared at her fiercely when she heard that, the sisters here are just the family members of the surrendered general, and they are not as unscrupulous as when Lian Chongxue was expelled in Beiliao.

After hearing this, Xianglai secretly despised her. She used to think that Lian Xiangjin was domineering, but she could always be somewhat noble in her bones. But on the way to Nanliao, she accidentally bumped into Lian Xiangjin who tried to seduce Shi Yan but was caught by Shi Yan. The scene of scolding, from then on, when she thinks of this person again, she feels contemptuous. A person may not want fame or fortune, or even his life, but he cannot be shameless. If he wants to live a better life, he even sells his own soul. What is there to be proud of even sitting on mountains of gold and silver?

When she was thinking about it, she had unknowingly arrived outside the Guanghe Hall, the main hall of the Nanliao Palace. This is the place where the Nanliao Emperor went to court. In the morning court, a group of people waited outside the hall for a long time but did not wait for the Nanliao emperor to summon them. Finally, an eunuch came to announce the decree to several people, saying that Shi Yan would bring Xianglai and others to Jingchun Pavilion to meet him.

Hearing the name, Xiang Lai felt a little strange, and wondered what this Jingchun Pavilion was, why did it feel like the name of a brothel.

After walking for a while with Shi Yan and others under the guidance of the eunuch, they found that the so-called Jingchun Pavilion seemed to be in the harem.

She sneaked a look at Shi Yan, but saw that Shi Yan's face was also extremely ugly. Thinking about it, it was true, how much credit it was to put down the Northern Liao Dynasty. He didn't even have a chance to go to court, so he was directly sent to the harem, which made Shi Yan not only seem to have done meritorious service, but also to have done something shameful.
