    The tents on the undulating grassland are like countless haystacks. Flags are fluttering in the wind between the tents, and the horse teams are galloping.  A large group of sheep lowered their heads and busily gnawed on the fresh green grass.  The sound of horse hooves and the crowing of cattle and sheep made the rugged grassland very lively.  In a tent, Yang Gun was chatting with several civil servants in robes.  At this time, a bald servant opened the curtain and said, "We have news about Yang's house." The officials left knowingly and came out of Yang Gong's tent. When they looked around, they saw a man wearing a bamboo hat.  A person entered the tent from behind, and the hat on his head was held low.  The person who entered the tent took off the bamboo hat on his head and had a bun on his head. He was a man.  Yang Gun looked at him without saying anything, turned around and sat down cross-legged on the cushion.  The man stepped forward, leaned over and whispered in Yang Gun's ear for a long time.  Yang Gun's expression was uncertain and his brows furrowed.  Yang Gun thought for a long time and asked in a low voice: "How can we spread rumors about the rebellion between King Qi and Yue?" The man said: "It's very simple. If you tell one person, there will be big trouble.  "Who?" Yang Gun asked, subconsciously guessing the person.  All the people he knew and heard about in Daliao rushed into his heart, and he suddenly seemed to have entered a maze of intricate relationships.  At this time, the man said: "Xi Yin." After hearing this, Yang Gun was stunned for a moment, and then gradually became enlightened after thinking carefully.  Xiyin is the grandson of Taizu of the Liao Dynasty, the son of Yelu Lihu, and the son-in-law of Xiao Siwen. He is frivolous and ambitious by nature.  No one in the Li Hu family has ever been emperor, but Yelu Xiyin always wanted to be emperor.  Before this, he had rebelled twice, without success; but Yang Gun believed that once he was instigated, he would definitely rebel again!  Why would Yang Gun be so sure?  Think about the people Xiao Siwen's two daughters are marrying and the person Xiao Yanyan is planning to marry. They are all people who may become emperors!  Yang Gun very much agreed with Xiao Siwen's views on these people.  After Yelvxian ascended the throne, he showed tolerance and kindness to the Daliao clan, hoping to change the internal tension during the reign of the late Emperor Yelujing and ease the civil strife.  If the death of King Qi is blamed on Yelvxian, no matter whether others believe it or not, Xiyin will definitely believe it anyway, and will think that he has found an excuse and name: Yelvxian was mean and ungrateful to the clan!  If Xiyin really used this excuse to rebel, there would be no need for anyone to spread the rumors. If it caused a big problem, the rumors would spread everywhere.  After Yang Gun thought about it, he realized that the person who came up with the idea of ??using Xiyin was very good. He not only knew the internal affairs of Liao Dynasty well, but also had bold associations.  He couldn't help but ask: "Who came up with this idea?" Han'er whispered: "Emperor Xu personally explained it." "Oh." Yang Gun nodded slightly.  He pondered for a while and then said with some sadness, "Even if the foreign invaders attack at the door of the house, there are always many people who only focus on fighting among themselves. This seems to be the bad nature of human beings!"  Half a month later, in the camp of the King of Liao Dynasty, someone suddenly received an urgent call.  Immediate report.  Not one message, but two messages.  "Yelu Xiyin led his troops to raise troops in Zuzhou, and he and the Yue King Yelu Bi who stayed behind in Shangjing took pictures inside and outside, and led the troops to occupy Shangjing!" "Jinzhou fell!" Good fortune never comes singly, and misfortune never comes alone. Both news were completely unexpected, Wang Zhang  Suddenly it seemed as if a pot had exploded.  Some people were angrily scolding Yelu Xiyin, "How long has it been, and he still wants to stab him in the back! Who will obey him?" Others were scolding the Jinzhou garrison, "Jinzhou Jiancheng is one of the strongest cities in Daliao.  One, it was captured in just half a month, why is it so incompetent" The messenger bowed and said: "The King of Qi (Yelu Sage) was beheaded by Shi Yanchao, and his head was hung on the flagpole, and was displayed to the public in four cities every day; Xu  The army sent people to shout day and night that the reinforcements had been defeated and Jinzhou became an isolated city. The morale of the Jinzhou defenders was low. Some Han soldiers attacked the east city and opened the city gate. Jinzhou fell. " Another human said.  : "The King of Song (Yel¨¹ Xiyin) claimed that the death of the King of Qi was caused by the Great Khan and his ministers, who were unkind to the clan. The King of Yue (Yel¨¹ Bishe) heard that someone had accused him of colluding with the King of Qi to rebel. He was frightened and confronted the King of Song.  (Xi Yin) conspired. "Everyone was talking, "If Jinzhou is lost, the majority of Xu's army can threaten Liaoyang without any danger." "Tiezhou (Yingkou) and Jinzhou.  Xu's army united with the sea and land, and there was little resistance as far east as the Yalu River. Xu's army colluded with the Goryeo army and the Shengnvzhen rebel bandits, and responded from the east to the west. The Dongdan Kingdom was forced on many sides and fell into a situation surrounded by enemy invaders. ""The most disadvantageous thing is that.  , We are now in chaos in the rear, and it is difficult to concentrate our forces to deal with foreign enemies. "Although Yelvxian usually leaves all major matters to the ministers for planning, he is already eighteen years old and is the emperor of Liao. At this time, he also has blood on his forehead.  Sweating profusely, holding the scepter tightly in his palm, his eyes?Looked at Yelu Xiezhen and Xiao Siwen eagerly.  Xiao Siwen said: "The King of Song (Xi Yin) may have been instigated by traitors for his rebellion. I would like to send someone back to Beijing to contact my second daughter and ask her to persuade the King of Song." "We don't know what kind of person Xi Yin is.  Do you know?" A clan noble suddenly said, "With this method of persuasion, he might think that we are afraid of him!" Yelu Xiezhen turned his head and glanced at Yang Gun calmly and winked.  Yang Gun came out from behind and bowed with his hand on his chest: "Great Khan, Korea has been spying on Dongdan Kingdom (the old land of Bohai Kingdom) for a long time, and our country has enmity with Xu Kingdom. If we take a long-term view, Daliao can only stabilize one country.  , To deal with one country, defeat them one by one to avoid starting a war with both countries at the same time. The Jurchen tribes of Dongdan Kingdom are spread all over the north and south. Goryeo instigates the Jurchen rebellion, which will inevitably lead to more Jurchen tribes rebelling against the Liao Dynasty. It is best to deal with Goryeo and the Jurchen rebellion first.  _Bandits At this time, Xu's army is the strongest. Negotiating peace with Xu to resolve the situation in the south can not only greatly solve the crisis, but also separate the connection between Xu and Goryeo. "Yeluxian frowned and asked: "Xu.  Are the people of the country willing to negotiate for peace? " Yang Gun said: "After Fan Zhongyi was imprisoned, I took his place and when sorting out the diplomatic files of the Beiyuan, I found that the "Da Liao Post" in Tokyo had written a letter saying that I wanted to send an envoy to Jinzhou.  Let¡¯s test it out first.¡± Xiao Siwen looked at Yelvxian with a complicated expression, as if he was hesitant to speak In terms of his attitude towards Xu Guo, he obviously wanted to fight hard.  But the situation changed too quickly, and Xiao Siwen was unable to prepare in advance to deal with the situation at this time.  The situation is like this. If we want to fight the main battle, we must not only come up with a strategy to solve the danger, but also be responsible for the consequences of this strategy.  Xiao Siwen's face turned green and red and said nothing.  At this time, even Yelvxian seemed very silent. There was shame, anger, and helplessness on his face.  Perhaps Yelvxian was thinking of Xiao Yanyan again?  While everyone was thinking about it, Yelu Xiezhen bowed first and said, "Great Khan, I support Yang Gun's proposal." For a while, people seemed to have gradually figured it out, and many people agreed This situation and scene are just like Yelu  There are signs that Xie Zhen can command the civil and military forces of the court; as soon as he expresses his stance, most people will immediately support him.  Xiao Siwen and others saw this and understood that Yelu Xiezhen, the privy envoy of the North Academy, gradually gained the influence that a privy envoy should have.  Yelvxian looked at it, patted the top of the scepter twice, and said, "Then we will follow Yang Gun's plan." The opinions of the monarch and his ministers in the king's tent gradually became clear.  Xiao Siwen didn't say a word from beginning to end. He felt as if he had fallen into a pit of quicksand.  It¡¯s that kind of feeling. As soon as your legs sink in, you won¡¯t be able to finish playing immediately without having time to react.  But no matter how much I struggle and how I try, I just can¡¯t pull it out, and it¡¯s getting deeper and deeper, and I¡¯m getting more and more helpless!  When did your legs sink in?  That was the failure of the siege of Hedong, when he gave up the Privy Council of the North Courtyard.  I think back then, it was Xiao Siwen who pushed Yelvxian to the throne!  The Great Khan obeyed his words, and the entire court was under his control But now, Xiao Siwen felt that his destiny had gradually lost control and was completely controlled by others.  He was panicking. Although he didn't speak easily, he was racking his brains to think of a solution.  Seeing that important matters did not need to go through his attitude at all, he was decided one by one He felt even more anxious, and was so anxious that he was sweating all over!  There are so many clues, where is the way?  Xiao Siwen desperately tried to sort out the mess Now to protect yourself, or to avoid being used as a scapegoat, you must first hold Yelu Xiezhen's thigh tightly!  Because Xiao Siwen intuitively felt that Yelu Xiezhen's words in the court were getting more and more important.  There is an advantage in holding Yelu Xiezhen¡¯s thigh, Xiao Siwen is his ally!  But just relying on affection is not enough. Yelu Xiezhen must see his own value and let Yelu Xiezhen value his help to him.  Xiao Siwen didn't hear a word of the movement in the king's tent. He was thinking nervously.  After a long time, Xiao Siwen raised his head and said calmly: "Great Khan, I have something to say." Yelvxian immediately turned his head and looked at Xiao Siwen. He had listened to Xiao Siwen's advice for a long time, but the Great Khan still valued his words.  Yelu Xian said: "Mr. Xiao, please speak." Xiao Siwen said: "The most important thing in the Liao Dynasty is to win the hearts of the people. Yelu Xi secretly plotted a rebellion and falsely accused the Great Khan of being related to the death of King Qi (·Hsarge). The court could not  By default, something must be done." Yelvxian nodded.  Xiao Siwen said again: "I would like to posthumously designate King Qi as the uncle of the emperor, and the widow of King Qi as the emperor's concubine. This will not only show the king's kindness to the clan, but also appease the old people of the king of Qi." Having said this, Xiao Siwen was full of expectations.  He looked at Yelvxian.  The widow of King Qi is his eldest daughter Xiao Hunian. If Xiao Hunian gets the support of the court,And by controlling the old tribe and fiefdom of the King of Qi, Xiao Siwen was of even greater value to Yelu Xiezhen to win over and maintain him.  Yelv Xian looked back and saw that no one objected, even Yelu Xiezhen acquiesced.  Yelvxian then said: "Mr. Xiao's words are reasonable, let's pass on the decree." When Xiao Siwen heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.  Once he found the exit, more clever ideas came to mind He also thought that his wife, Princess Yan, was the daughter of Taizong. With a little arrangement, he could play a role in easing the influence of the current court and Taizong's faction.  Bonding effect!
