    Although Xiao Da went to Xixia for the first time, after all, he had deep connections in the military. He had straightened out a few joints before coming to Xixia, and he was able to find connections in Xixia this time.  Compared with the endless wars between Xixia and the Song Dynasty, Xixia's attitude towards the Liao Kingdom was much closer.  Since the Liao Kingdom didn¡¯t have much money, even if they attacked the Liao Kingdom, they wouldn¡¯t be able to harvest much silk, and it would be more of a loss for the treasury.  When attacking the wealthy Song Dynasty, not only could they loot along the border, but they could also be subdued after the war and exchange for some money and silk rewards.  Secondly, the main force of the Liao Kingdom also used cavalry to fight, so Xixia encountered a strong attack that could only be fought head-on.  It's not like facing the Song Dynasty.  The Xixia cavalry couldn't win but they could still run away, and the Song infantry couldn't catch up.  Therefore, if you fail in the battle against the Liao Kingdom, you will suffer a loss, but if you fail in the battle against the Song Dynasty, you can escape home to recuperate.  Just like playing a real-time strategy game, soldiers with residual health can be slowly restored to health by bringing them back to the base camp, while dead soldiers need to spend time to produce resources again.  Calculating the inside and outside, the loss is huge.  Therefore, the relationship between Liao and Xixia was close, and many nobles in the armies of both sides communicated with each other. The channel Xiao Da borrowed was similar and convenient.  After his explanation, Ding Yang soon learned that there was basically no need to doubt the authenticity of the news.  But after hearing this, he only had a wry smile: "So, the reason why we received the cold treatment from Xixia was because Empress Dowager Liang played a role in it?" Xiao Da also nodded with a wry smile: "That's right,  It is said that the Empress Dowager Liang was very dissatisfied with the Immortal Chief. "At this time, Xixia was no longer the time when Li Yuanhao was killing all the people and frightening other countries with his military power.  Back then, Li Yuanhao was lustful and even stole the prince¡¯s fianc¨¦e.  It is said that Emperor Ming Dynasty of Tang Dynasty Li Longji also did similar things. Concubine Yang was originally the concubine of his son King Shou.  But Li Longji was able to take away Concubine Yang and nothing happened. Li Yuanhao was assassinated by his son when he took away the fianc¨¦e of Prince Ning Lingge, Wu Yishi.  Although Li Yuanhao was not dead at the time and only had most of his nose cut off, he died of excessive bleeding the next day.  The prince was also killed for the crime of patricide. The powerful minister Fu Zang and Pang took the opportunity to put his sister and Li Yuanhao's one-year-old illegitimate son Liang Zuo on the throne and ascend the throne, thereby completely controlling the government.  But Liang Zuo later committed adultery with Liang, the daughter-in-law of Wu Zangying Pang, so he cooperated with others to eradicate Wu Zangying Pang and regain his power.  He also killed the queen, Wu Zangying Pang's daughter, and made Liang the queen.  That year, Liang Zuo was only 14 years old.  Then the emperor who took charge personally began to abolish his father's feudal rites and restore Han rites.  After years of fighting, I want to achieve something.  But he didn¡¯t expect that when he was 21 years old, he was injured in combat. After returning to the army, the injury occurred and he died.  At this time, his son with Liang was only seven years old.  As the seven-year-old emperor ascended the throne, Liang also began to listen to politics behind the curtain as the empress dowager.  This is something that happened not long ago three years ago. At this time, all the state affairs of Xixia were in the hands of the Empress Dowager Liang.  After all, Empress Dowager Liang is a woman. Even if she listens to politics behind the curtain, she still needs additional political support.  So she simply made her younger brother Liang Yimi the prime minister of the country, and took charge of the political power of the Xixia Dynasty both internally and externally.  "Why did Empress Dowager Liang act like this? I don't remember offending her!" Ding Yang heard that the key to the cold reception he received this time was Empress Dowager Liang, and was inevitably very surprised.  He and Empress Dowager Liang have never met in person, so what is the purpose of targeting him like this?  I heard earlier that the Empress Dowager Liang was quite beautiful, and I was a little excited. I wanted to see this woman who seduced the emperor.  ¡°After all, the emperor¡¯s wife at that time was the daughter of Wu Zangying Pang, and Liang was the daughter-in-law of Wu Zangying Pang.  Speaking of which, the Liang family and the emperor were also related by marriage. According to Empress Zang, the Liang family was the emperor's sister-in-law.  It is said that Liang is not only extremely beautiful, but also extremely charming.  The few opportunities to enter the palace seduced the emperor.  The emperor, who was still a teenager at the time, did not hesitate to start an affair with his sister-in-law, and later directly eradicated the whole family of his uncle and father-in-law.  ??Although there are factors that threaten Pang's power and threaten the monarchy, Liang's contribution to the situation is also indispensable.  Originally, Ding Yang wanted to see the style of Empress Dowager Liang. After all, Empress Dowager Liang is not even 25 years old now, which is when a woman is most charming and beautiful.  "But I never expected that before I saw Queen Mother Liang's outstanding grace, I would see the other party's ruthless targeting.  Fortunately, Xiao Da had already done a lot of research and finally got some inside information: "Chief Immortal, it is said that the key to this matter is that Empress Dowager Liang believes in Buddhism and is very pious." "Huh?" This reason is Ding?Unexpectedly, he was almost dumbfounded when he heard this.  Ding Yang knew that Xixia believed in Buddhism.  However, the Empress Dowager Liang treated him very coldly because of her belief in Buddhism, but it was entirely because of what he did against Tianxiong Temple and other temples in Beijing in the Liao Kingdom.  According to Xiao Da¡¯s next narration and the information he learned, it was basically someone slandering Empress Dowager Liang that led to this result.  It is said that the person who made the slander was none other than the current abbot monk of Xixia Chengtian Pagoda.  The Xixia Chengtian Tower was built 20 years ago by Empress Dowager Wuzang to ensure the smooth succession of her and Li Yuanhao's illegitimate son who had just turned one year old. It is 11 stories high and symbolizes "Chengtian and Guiding Ming".  Based on the construction technology at this time, it is absolutely exquisite and large-scale. It has enjoyed the reputation of "Celebrity of the East" and "Master of the West" since it was first built.  Chengtian Temple has maintained its prosperity for more than 20 years and has always been respected as a royal temple.  Its status in Xixia is comparable to that of Tianxiong Temple in Liao Kingdom and Daxiangguo Temple in Song Dynasty.  It is said that monks from several temples often communicate with each other.  Now Ding Yang is fighting in Tianxiong Temple, and has almost wiped out the entire Tianxiong Temple.  Not to mention the original friendship, just the factors of the rabbit's death and the fox's sorrow will inevitably cause problems.  Judging from the information Xiao Da has learned, it is said that after the news of the destruction of Tianxiong Temple spread to Xixia, Ding Yang's reputation has become polarized.  The nobles in Xixia were still in awe of Ding Yang's magic, but after the monks launched a propaganda offensive, Ding Yang's image in many people's minds was fixed on that of the Shura demon.  The Empress Dowager Liang was originally a harem official, but she was of Han origin, and the main ethnic group in Xixia was the Dangxiang ethnic group.  Therefore, her authority will always be challenged by the domestic party nobles, and it is always not as stable as others.  Therefore, when the monks launched a large-scale publicity, Empress Dowager Liang had to express her attitude and cut off contact with Ding Yang.  "I see Haha, this is really interesting!" After hearing Xiao Da explain the reason, Ding Yang held his chin and smiled.  ~
