Chapter four hundred and fiftieth unique court song
(Seeking collection)
In the end, Yelvzhen couldn't help it, and personally lit up ten thousand wolf cavalry and chased him in the direction of Zhaozhou. He chased for two days and two nights without catching up with Tiemu Qiuge, but this did not mean that he would not catch up with him.
I knew where Tiemu Qiuge had gone. Yelv really couldn't imagine why Tiemu Qiuge really escaped.
After arriving in Youzhou, he did not leave when he was no longer being used. He did not leave when he was bullied and resisted while guarding the city gate. He did not leave when he was attacked by the Han army at the Wuming Lake in the south of Cangzhou. He returned with serious injuries and blood all over his body.
In the Khitan camp, he still didn't leave. But why did he leave when he had just gained Yeluji's approval, been directly promoted to General Xiongwu by Yeluji, and asked His Majesty Yeluxiongji to make him a marquis?
On the way back to the camp, Yelu Zhen suddenly understood. He also understood why Yelu Ji's reaction that day was so abnormal, like a woman who had been stripped naked and had no pride at all. Because the king's
Pride was torn to pieces by that guy named Tiemu Qiuge.
When you don't trust me, I will not leave. I will use my own actions to prove that I am a trustworthy person. When I risked my life to save you and made you start to trust me, I chose to leave.
Why? Because...I also have my pride.
Yes, he is a very proud and proud person from beginning to end.
He was so proud that he only used a cold look, took off his armor and exposed the scars on his body, so that the Khitan wolf riders did not dare to resist his orders. Then, he led the five thousand wolf riders all the way north.
Go. Some of Yelvji's soldiers tried to return to the Khitan camp, but he ignored them. It was these returning soldiers who met Yelvzhen who was chasing after him, and Yelvzhen knew that Tiemu Qiuge had really left. He
Instead of going to His Highness Yelu Deguang, who was kind to him, he went all the way north and went straight to Shangjing.
He is going to see His Majesty.
Yelvzhen smiled bitterly and said to himself: "Tiemu Qiuge, what kind of person are you? Are you going to use your great contribution to saving the prince's life in exchange for your majesty not punishing you for escaping from the battle? Your Majesty...
Who’s to blame for this ending?”
When Yelvzhen returned to the Khitan camp, Tiemu Qiuge galloped towards Shangjing with more than 3,000 wolf cavalry. He led these more than 3,000 wolf cavalry and rushed from Cangzhou to Shangjing in only half a month.
.Then he asked three thousand cavalry to wait outside the city, and entered Shangjing City alone. Then he arrived alone outside the golden tent of His Majesty the Emperor of Liao, with a calm expression.
Yelu Xiongji was stunned for a moment when he heard reports from outsiders that Tiemu Qiuge was asking to see His Majesty. It took him a while to remember who Tiemu Qiuge was, and then he rubbed his brows and thought sadly, it seemed to him that he really was
He was old, and it took him so long to remember the person he had just met two years ago, although that person was not very important in his eyes. He asked the waiter to call Tiemu Qiuge into the luxurious and glorious golden tent, Yelu
Xiongji stared at the man with a vicissitudes of life and asked.
"You...are here to report to me the situation of the war in Cangzhou?"
"no"
"But you came to ask me for reinforcements?"
"no"
"Then what are you doing when you come back to Beijing?"
"When I come back, I won't go back."
Tiemu Qiuge said calmly.
"oh?"
Ye Luxiong thought for a while and asked: "It seems that you are not very important to the prince, otherwise you would not have fled back to the capital when the war situation was difficult. But... do you think that I will protect you?"
Even if the prince doesn't like you, he won't dare to kill you for my sake. But I will kill you unless you give me a reasonable explanation."
Tiemu Qiuge said: "All explanations are nothing compared to the face of the Tian family. Therefore, your majesty can wait for the memorial from His Highness the Crown Prince, or you can behead the general now."
Yelu Xiongji smiled: "You seem to be confident that I won't kill you."
Tiemu Qiuge said: "I am confident but not sure, but I will still come back. Even if I am beheaded by His Majesty, I will not regret it."
"Why?"
"Because the last general also has pride."
Yelu Xiongji frowned slightly: "Tell you your current official position."
"Four months ago, General Mo was an ordinary soldier at the East Gate of Youzhou. A month and a half ago, General Mo was the commander of His Royal Highness's personal army. Fifteen days ago, General Mo was promoted to General Mighty General by His Highness the Crown Prince."
Yelu Xiongji thought for a while and said: "You have been a soldier for two years, a captain for four months, and a general for fifteen days. There is one month in between that you haven't said anything about. What are you doing in this month?"
?”
"He's a half-dead man, struggling for life on the hospital bed."
"Have you made great achievements?"
"The last general saved the life of His Highness the Crown Prince."
"So... you have been a soldier for two years and a captain for four months without coming back. After you recovered, you were promoted to a general and immediately returned to Beijing, asking for songs... You are really
What a proud man!”
Yelu Xiongji stood up and said with some emotion: "Tiemu Qiuge, you just came back and used your pride to smash my son's pride. Do you think... I won't kill you and kill you quickly?"
Send the horse to my son?"
"Your Majesty can do this."
Tiemu Qiuge raised his head and glanced at Yelu Xiongji, and said in a calm tone.
"You brought back three thousand wolf riders?"
"yes!"
"How many soldiers have been killed who did not obey your orders?"
"No one was killed."
"very good……"
Yelu Xiongji paused and said: "I remember that two years ago, you were never merciful to those who disobeyed you. Why don't you kill people anymore? Have you forgotten how to be a soldier guarding the city gate for two years?
Did anyone kill someone?"
"The general kills people now, faster."
"Ha ha!"
Yelu Xiongji laughed loudly and said: "You want to use your own merits to exchange for your pride. You are very smart. Even if I kill you, you will still be proud. It seems that both my father and son are too narrow-minded. If I
Killing you will actually fulfill your pride, right? So you are sure that I will not kill you, so you are confident."
"The general will not dare."
"Whether you dare or not, stick to the wood and ask for songs, you have the backbone of a Khitan, and I like it. Just stay in Shangjing with your three thousand cavalry. I will give you three months. After three months, I will
Go and see your cavalry. If you can defeat ten thousand wolf cavalry, I will not kill you."
After Yelvzhen returned to the Khitan camp, he knelt down on one knee outside Yelvji's tent and said, "Your Majesty, Yelvzhen, I know I was wrong."
Yeluji walked out of the big tent wearing a piece of clothing. He looked at his confidant general who was covered in dust and his face turned pale: "Actually speaking, you are still my clan brother, but you are just a little further away. Get up, there are still people in the big tent.
There is wine, you will definitely be hungry and thirsty after coming back from a long way, so drink a few glasses of wine first."
"Tiemu Qiuge went to Xijing?"
Yeluji suddenly asked.
"No, I went to... to Beijing."
Hearing the answer, Yeluji suddenly trembled: "It's a good plan. Of course he will not go to Xijing. Neither I nor the second brother are just His Majesty's ministers. Even if he joins the second brother, what can he get in exchange?"
?Furthermore, depending on the cruel temper of the second brother, maybe he will chop off Tiemu Qiuge’s head with a knife, put it in a box and send it to me, and then write a memorial exactly as to why he killed Tiemu Qiuge.
I reported the matter of Ge to His Majesty. Tiemu Qiuge knew who was the greatest in Daliao. So he abandoned me and did not choose the second son, but went directly to Shangjing."
Yeluji suddenly smiled: "I finally know that Tiemu Qiuge is not only a warrior, he is also a very scheming person. He is not just an incompetent warrior, he is really a general.
.In this way, Your Majesty will not doubt his loyalty."
Looking at Yelv Zhen who didn't know how to answer, Yelvji breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Write a memorial for me and take it to Beijing. Write this matter clearly and completely. Don't slander Tiemu Qiuge, and don't
If you can say something nice for him, just seek truth from facts, I can no longer afford to lose face."
At the same time, Liu Ling, who was about to arrive in Zhaozhou, leaned against a big tree in the afterglow of the evening, holding a piece of barbecue and eating it. The barbecue tasted good, which reminded him of Wang Xiaoniu.
"Where is Wang Xiaoniu now?"
Liu Ling asked Zhao Da.
Zhao Da thought for a while and said: "I am still serving as the county magistrate in Yingzhou."
"Issue a military order to transfer him to the army? I miss his roasted bird meat."
"I obey my orders."
"Another decree was issued to transfer Xie Huanran to serve as Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs and march to the Ministry of Civil Affairs. The old prime minister has been recuperating at home for some time. Duke Zhou Yan is in Lanzhou again. All matters in the court are on Hou Shen. He can always do it alone.
His energy is limited. As for the vacant county guard position, let Xie Huanran choose a capable person to apply for it. After the military aircraft department uses the seal, it will be done. Hou Shen can also feel more relaxed if he leaves the errands of the household department to Xie Huanran.
The Minister of Etiquette asked him to choose a talented person. The Ministry of Etiquette is a trivial and labor-intensive yamen. The Military Aircraft Department has too many things right now and he has no time to worry about trivial matters such as clothes and hats. The position of prime minister is temporarily vacant.
Let's appoint Zhou Yangong and Hou Shen as bachelors and perform the functions of prime ministers."
"My subordinates will do it now."
"Um"
Liu Ling hummed and chewed the shredded meat in his mouth carefully: "Xiao Chao has gone north?"
"went."
Zhao Da replied.
He smiled and said: "Xiao Chao is a cruel person. I really didn't expect him to use this method to go to Beijing."
"Indeed."
Liu Ling smiled and said: "He is a cruel person. He is the only one in the Twelve Golden Clothes of the Supervisory Yuan who was born in the military. I was reluctant to let him go. If he stayed in the army, his achievements would not be lower than Hua Ling.
He entered the Overwatch Council and became a golden man, but he guarded the city gate in Youzhou for two years. I couldn't help but want to send him back several times, and I also ordered him to come back, but he just wouldn't.
Come back. He wrote me back and said that if you give him three years, he will definitely become Yelu Xiongji's confidant."
Zhao Da sighed: "It's less than three years now, more than two years and six months."
Zhao Da looked at the barbecue in his hand and said with admiration: "My subordinates knew that Xiao Chao was cruel, but they didn't expect that he was so cruel to himself. He forced General Hualing to shoot him thirteen arrows. Didn't he think that he had
Could he be accidentally shot?"
Liu Ling smiled and said: "To put it this way, Hua Ling is actually quite cruel. He shot thirteen arrows at his junior brother without blinking, without even shaking his hand."
Before Zhao Da could answer, Liu Ling stopped smiling: "Hua Ling didn't dare to shake. He was afraid that if his hand shook, Xiao Chao might actually be shot to death by him."
Zhao Da sighed: "Chao Qiu Ge is really like what he said back then. He is a unique Chao Qiu Ge."
Liu Ling nodded, his eyes drifting to the north.
He remembered that when Hua Ling was shooting arrows that day, her face was frighteningly white. He remembered that after shooting thirteen arrows, Hua Ling's hands were shaking like a patient. He remembered that Chao Qiuge said to Hua Ling, shoot me fifteen arrows.
There must be no missing arrow. Hua Ling failed in the end because after shooting the thirteenth arrow, his hand could no longer remain steady.
"Why fifteen arrows?"
Liu Ling asked Hua Ling.
Hua Ling said: "When we were young, when we were studying art together, I took the blame for him fifteen times and was whipped by my father fifteen times for him."
