    Yelu Jun held on hard in Youzhou, while Xiao Guanyin sat in Beijing.  Hearing the news that his son was defeated miserably and almost died in Qingzhou, Xiao Guanyin's heart was in his throat.  That was her only son, mother and son were connected by heart, how could she not be anxious?  She knows better than anyone why her son hastily raised his troops to go south. If he hadn't been so anxious and eager for quick success, he wouldn't have suffered such a disastrous defeat.  Xiao Guanyin blamed herself very much because her mistakes had led to her son's difficult situation and even affected the national destiny of the Liao Kingdom.  She felt that she was a sinner, and she felt endless self-blame and guilt.  As for Zhao Zhao, the man who had a one-night stand was not even a lover.  Maybe he had never forgotten that he had saved her several times, and maybe he had a special feeling in his heart.  But at this moment, it¡¯s time to let it go, or even disappear.  In comparison, she cares more about her son.  A man who was barely a lover beat his son to serious injuries, should he still miss him?  Hatred, the normal heart should be filled with hatred.  But Xiao Guanyin's mood is more complicated. Perhaps what she wants to achieve more is to forget.  Her daughter has asked her more than once, but she cannot explain the things that are difficult for her to talk about!  It may take an opportunity, or it may take some time.  She doesn¡¯t have time to think so much right now. What she is most concerned about is the war in Youzhou, her son¡¯s safety, and the national destiny of Liao!  Because she is the Empress Dowager of the Liao Kingdom.  "Mother, the organization of reinforcements is not going very well!" Xiao Guanyin sat in Beijing, and the little princess Yelutri became an assistant.  The Youzhou warriors are at a disadvantage.  There are suggestions from both the government and the opposition.  It's time to send additional reinforcements to Youzhou.  All the elites standing in the Liao Kingdom were dispatched to Yanyun.  If additional reinforcements are to be sent, they will have to be drawn from other places, or they must be recruited from various tribes and nomadic peoples affiliated with the Liao Kingdom.  The little princess Yelutri was doing this, but the actual effect was not satisfactory, so she felt a little aggrieved.  "What's wrong? Terry?" "Those princes and leaders of various tribes all made excuses, saying that most of the tribe's soldiers followed the emperor's brother to the south for the expedition, or that they were preparing pasture for the winter" Yelu Tri said: "On the contrary, there is no one  Are you willing to take the initiative to send more troops south? " "Then you can discuss it with the important officials of the imperial court?" Xiao Guanyin also frowned, how could things be like this?  "Found it. But the reaction fluid of the ministers is very" Yelutri said: "The king of the North Courtyard, Yeluta, is the son of Yue Renxian. He is silent and doesn't seem to support it. The situation is very bad."  "How could this happen?" Xiao Guanyin realized that the matter was serious. Once he lost the support of the Khitan nobles, the emperor's position would be shaken and it would be very dangerous.  Yelutri said: "More than that, the prince and ministers are quite resentful of the emperor's brother, thinking that it is him who insists on his own way. That has led to the current situation, and the dissatisfaction is very serious. Mother, to be honest, my daughter is really worried!" Silence!  Xiao Guanyin also fell silent. The Khitan nobles collectively opposed silently. Has the situation reached this point?  For some reason, an inexplicable chill spread throughout his body.  "Tomorrow I will go to the palace in person to talk to these princes!" Xiao Guanyin said, "Come with me then, and remember to hold Yanxi in your arms. Even if he is still young, he is the prince of Liao after all." "Okay!" Yelutri hesitated.  After a moment, he asked softly: "Mother, can you tell me why the emperor rushed south to fight? And why did he treat the mother like that?" "It's nothing, I just have some misunderstandings with your emperor, don't worry!" Xiao Guanyin said  When he said these words, he couldn't help but breathe a little quickly.  "Really?" Yelutri became more and more curious. This question had been bothering him for a long time.  His intuition told him that things would not be that simple. The emperor's brother did not hesitate to get angry about this. The queen mother remained tight-lipped, which made people wonder, what serious thing happened?  Xiao Guanyin shook his head and said, "Terry, don't ask. If I can tell you, my mother will tell you." "Yes!" Yelu Tri pondered for a long time, opened his mouth several times, but finally stopped talking.  Finally, he retreated silently, but his curious heart became more active and persistent.  It was only a moment, but Xiao Guanyin felt as long as several years.  Especially when her daughter asked her in person, it was a kind of soul torture and torture, and she still never let go.  ¡­ ¡­ After tossing and turning all night, after getting up, Xiao Guanyin put on the phoenix crown and calmed down her mood.  She is now the Queen Mother of Liao and has to face the people and subjects of Daliao.  When Xiao Guanyin, the princess Yelu Tri, and the young prince Yelu Yanxi came outNow in the court, Khitan nobles have come to the court!  The topic discussed today is the matter of sending troops to rescue Youzhou, and everyone is aware of it.  His Majesty's actions are indeed somewhat irrational, and the results are also very unsatisfactory.  From the perspective of national interests, it is timely to send troops to rescue.  But as a tribal leader, no one wants the members of his tribe to pay for the emperor's mistakes and die.  "Queen Mother, I heard that the Song Dynasty used a new type of firearm, which was very lethal. Your Majesty's defeat in Qingzhou was due to this weapon." Some tribal leaders have euphemistically expressed that they are afraid of the power of the Song Dynasty's firearms and do not want their own tribe.  The soldiers went to die.  "Your Majesty is in Nanjing. Yanyun is of great significance to us in Daliao. How can we sit idly by and ignore it? We should rescue it as soon as possible!" There are also loyal ministers who expressed their determination to rescue.  "The question is how to save them? The Song army is under the city of Youzhou. They have elite cavalry, but our elite cavalry was lost in Qingzhou. How to fight the Song people on the plains?" "When Emperor Shengzong was in power, the Song Dynasty  The emperor also sent an army of 300,000 to attack Youzhou, but he was defeated by General Yelvxiu Ge. " "Back then, the Song people used infantry to pursue our Daliao cavalry, and General Yelu Xiu Ge had the opportunity to set up an ambush in the Gaoliang River and defeat the Song Dynasty.  Army. Now the cavalry of the Song Dynasty is not as weak as ours. Will they make the same mistake twice? " "Yes, the Song people also have that mysterious firearm. I heard that when it is fired, the sound is loud and the flames hurt people.  "Heavenly Thunder." The more Xiao Guanyin listened, the more he frowned. Why did it get to this point?  The attitude of the Khitan nobles is really "Everyone, the Song Dynasty's firearms are indeed magical and powerful, but they are not divine objects after all. His Majesty the Emperor and the soldiers are still fighting fiercely in Youzhou. This will make others' ambitions destroy their own prestige, right?"  Princess Yelutri came forward, and her words made many people feel embarrassed.  Queen Mother Xiao Guanyin took advantage of the situation and said: "We have to think of a way now!" "I wonder what your Majesty's will is?" This question was very shameless. Xiao Guanyin said helplessly: "Youzhou City has been besieged by the Song Army. Your Majesty's  The purpose cannot be conveyed. That is why we need to find a way to rescue him. "" Queen Mother, what is the purpose of the rescue? If it is to rescue Your Majesty, it is completely possible to break through the siege with the help of Youzhou's existing troops.  There is no need to worry about Youzhou. There is a large army stationed in Youzhou, the city is tall, and the food and grass are sufficient. If you only need to hold on for a month or two, the Song Dynasty people will definitely not be able to hold on and will take the initiative to retreat. "The meaning is obvious, no matter what, send troops.  Rescue is not necessary at all.  Xiao Guanyin couldn't help but feel chilled, and at the same time, she was deeply worried. This incident had a huge impact on her son's prestige.  In addition, he himself and the most elite forces of the Khitan royal family were trapped in Youzhou, and they almost completely lost their ability to intimidate and control the Khitan nobles.  If this continues, the consequences will be disastrous!  Xiao Guanyin was still worried, so she had to find a way to reduce the pressure on her son.  But soon, she found that there was nothing she could do.  It was impossible to mobilize a single soldier when going to Beijing. Yelu Ta, the great king of the Beiyuan, also rebelled, and he rebelled suddenly.  ¡­ ¡­ Yelu Ta did not attend the court meeting today. Although Xiao Guanyin noticed it, he did not take it seriously.  He even plans to send someone to visit him. With such influence at this moment, the powerful Khitan nobles must win over him.  But they never expected that Yelu Ta would directly launch a mutiny.  The first target of the army's attack turned out to be the imperial palace. Yelu Ta obviously wanted to capture the ruling center of the Liao Kingdom in one fell swoop.  Controlling the Queen Mother and Prince, and also holding many Khitan nobles in his hands, he gained control of the power of the Liao Kingdom in one fell swoop.  Of course, except for the Sixteen States of Yanyun.  As for Youzhou and the current emperor Yelu Jun, Yelu Ta doesn¡¯t mind leaving it to the people of the Song Dynasty.  It would be best if Yelujun died, but Youzhou could get it back.  He is a relatively traditional Khitan. He feels that the Khitans are heroes on the grassland and their nomadic life is the most reasonable, so he does not attach much importance to the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.  Logically speaking, if they are caught off guard and rush into the palace, the possibility of a successful mutiny is very high.  The elites of the Liao Kingdom came out, almost all of them in Youzhou.  Compared with the last rebellion of Yelu Yixin, the Pishi Army was also absent, so the possibility of success was very high.  But things often happen unexpectedly, and Yelu Tart actually made careful calculations and took precautions against all the important people who might influence the mutiny. It can be said that he had a thorough plan.  "It's a pity that God's calculations are not as good as those of humans. Yelu Ta never expected that a little kid would disrupt the situation.  The king of Lanling, Xiao Fuhan, was only a seventeen-year-old boy. He was originally just a guard general in the palace.  Because he inherited his father's title, he is here.??Quite high.  But his abilities and actions seemed to be average, so few people cared about him.  But it was such a neglected young man who discovered Yelu Tabuye's conspiracy and promptly reported Prince Consort Xiao Tabuye. The two organized a defense together, fought back the rebels, and fought a bloody path.  The queen mother, the queen mother, the eldest princess, and many noble princes rescued them.  Yelu Tabuye's plan failed. The angered Khitan princes immediately mobilized their troops and began to fight against him.  Yelvta had no choice but to flee with his troops, but the fierce battle in Beijing continued and it had become a complete mess (To be continued)
