Chapter 627 Betrayal

Zhongjing was besieged, with only 30,000 defeated soldiers in the city, and he had long lost morale. Yelu Zongzhen outside the city was full of momentum. In addition, the Liao nobles who had recently changed their powers led their troops to surrender, which led to the rapid increase in the strength of his troops, and now it has reached 80,000 people, and even people in the city secretly contacted Yelu Zongzhen.

In this case, anyone with some eyesight knows that Xiao Nojin has finished and it is almost impossible to turn the tables again. It is only a matter of time before Yelu Zong truly enters Zhongjing. This also makes people's hearts fluctuate, and all kinds of rumors are flying all over the sky, making people unable to tell the truth or the false.

Zhao Anren walked to Xiao Nojin's bedroom with a hesitation, but when he was about to enter the door, he suddenly stopped his feet, and then walked back and forth in front of the door several times, and finally gritted his teeth and stepped into the bedroom.

Xiao Nojin was also lying on the bed with a sick look on her face. She was sick. Just a few days ago, Xiao Xiao advised her to take the initiative to make peace. Xiao Nojin suddenly fell ill. Although the disease was not serious, because she was depressed, her condition recovered very slowly and she had been in bed and resting these days.

"See the Queen Mother!" Zhao Anren quickly walked to Xiao Nojin and bowed.

"No gifts, there seems to be some bad trends in the palace recently, so you should pay more attention!" Xiao Nojin said lightly at this time. Zhao Anren was her most trusted eunuch, and naturally all the affairs in the palace were handed over to him. However, she also felt something abnormal in the palace recently, so she said so.

Zhao Anren was also shocked when he heard this, because he knew that this was a rumor outside had affected the palace, and even Xiao Nojin on the hospital bed had a feeling, but he came today to tell Xiao Nojin what he found.

"Empress, I have something to tell you, look..." Zhao Anren also turned his head and looked around. In addition to him and Xiao Nojin, there were many eunuchs and palace maids in the hall, and no one could know what he wanted to say.

Xiao Nojin was also a little curious when he saw this, and immediately retreated. After Zhao Anren saw the others retreating, he stepped forward and said, "Empress, since Zhongjing was surrounded, there have been many rumors in the city, many of which are related to ministers in the court!"

"What rumors?" Xiao Nojin did not show any unexpected expression when she heard this. In fact, although she didn't know much about the outside world because of her illness, she also knew that with the current situation, it was normal for rumors to appear in the city.

"This..." Zhao Anren hesitated for a while and finally spoke, "It's all rumored in the city, and many ministers were secretly contacting outside the city, and the words were both noses and eyes, and they didn't seem to be fake."

"Hmph, I knew that these guys who were changing their minds at the wind were unreliable. It's a pity that I couldn't clean them up at the beginning!" Xiao Nojin snorted coldly when he heard this, but these were still as expected.

"Empress, some of these rumors are related to the King of Chu!" Zhao Anren suddenly spoke again at this time.

"What? This... this is impossible!" Xiao Nojin was shocked when he heard this and sat up suddenly, saying with disbelief on his face. Xiao Xiaoxian was the person she trusted the most, so she believed that others might be betray her, but she never doubted Xiao Xiaoxian.

"What is the rumors outside? Tell me quickly!" Xiao Nojin reacted and urged Zhao Anren loudly. Xiao Xiaoxian now has the military and political power in the city. If he really wants to betray him, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"The outside world said that His Highness, the King of Chu felt that Zhongjing City could not be defended. Queen Mother... You are already in a predicament, so he planned to surrender to His Majesty outside the city. Just when the conditions were agreed, he would immediately open the city gate and offer Zhongjing City." Zhao Anren gritted his teeth and finally told the news.

"This is impossible...This is impossible...This..." Xiao Nojin was shocked when he heard this. Although he said it was impossible, she also thought of the fact that Xiao Xiaoxian went to the palace to persuade him to discuss peace with Yelu Zongzhen before. Of course, it was called peace talks, but in fact it was surrender.

But at this moment, Xiao Nojin suddenly thought of something, and immediately leaned forward and stared at Zhao Anren and said again: "These are all rumors. It must be some rumors spread by Yelu Zongzhen to distract us, right?"

Seeing that Xiao Nojin still didn't believe that Xiao Xiao betrayed him first, Zhao Anren smiled helplessly again, and then said again: "I originally thought so, but to ensure that in case, I also sent someone to observe the King of Chu during this period. As a result, last night, I received a report that someone was going down the rope from the top of the city and then went to the camp outside the city. I didn't come back until dawn, and I also entered the King of Chu's mansion."

Xiao Nojin's eyes widened when he heard Zhao Anren's words, and his breathing became rapid: "Can this news be confirmed?"

"It's absolutely true. Even if I borrow ten courage from my servants, I wouldn't dare to lie!" Zhao Anren said with a bitter face. If he hadn't received the exact news, he wouldn't dare to come to see Xiao Nojin.

In fact, since the last time Xiao Xiao came to persuade Xiao Nojin to surrender, Zhao Anren has already doubted him, so he also sent someone to follow him secretly. As a result, rumors were already spread in the city before following him for a few days, and yesterday he even got tangible evidence.

Xiao Nojin's eyes were also red at this time, and his face was full of ferocious expressions. Zhongjing was surrounded, and the city was definitely defended tightly, but last night, someone went down the city to follow the rope. Those who could do this must be important figures in the city. The people who left the city finally returned to Xiao Xiaoxian's mansion, which confirmed that he betrayed him.

Thinking of this, Xiao Nojin also felt endless anger in her heart. She never dreamed that Xiao Xiaoxian would betray her. You must know that she had trusted Xiao Xiaoxian at the beginning and handed over all the military and political power of the Liao Kingdom to him. She even named him King of Chu and the Privy Council of the North Court. It can be said that he was more than one than ten thousand people, but he betrayed herself at this critical moment, which made Xiao Nojin feel bleeding in his heart.

"It is said that Xiao Xiao has entered the palace first!" Xiao Nojin immediately gritted his teeth and ordered, since the other party betrayed him, don't blame her for turning against him ruthlessly.
