Chapter 175 Exploring the Population Wind
When Wang Bian received the express letter, he immediately summoned Libo, Jiao Deyou, Zhe Kejun, Zhang Ping and Han Derong. Wang Bian arranged Jiao Deyou, Zhe Kejun to continue to keep a close eye on the construction of the two towers; he ordered Libo to immediately return to the Wanyan tribe near Liaoyang Mansion in Tokyo, and mobilized troops to prepare for Yelu Zongyuan's old nest; at the same time, let Zhang Ping, Han Derong went to Zhongjing Dadingfu with him,
After arranging these things, the king ordered people to invite Xin Zan: "Mr. Xin, I have something important to do. I need to see the emperor. Please ask Mr. Xin to prepare an urgent letter."
Xin Zan looked at Wang's side and suddenly saw the Liao Emperor in such a hurry and asked strangely, "Wang Shilang is in such a hurry to invite the emperor, but our tower has not been built yet." Up to now, Xinzan doesn't know that Yelü Hongji is facing a great risk in coming to Rehe this time.
"Xin Gong, I don't want to invite the Liao Emperor to see the tower. I just received an urgent report: Yelü Sa's thorn bamboo wants to plot a rebellion. The Liao Emperor is in danger now."
Hearing what Wang said, Xin Zan was shocked: "Ah, there will be such a thing. How can this be possible?"
Wangbian immediately said, "This matter is not a small matter. Naturally, I dare not joke, so I want to meet the emperor in person, so that the emperor can make a plan early."
Xin Zan saw that Wang said so affirmatively: "Okay, I will send the feather book immediately. Wang Shilang took the official text to the urgent horse shop to pick up the urgent horse. From then on, it only takes one day to get to Zhongjing Dadingfu." After saying that, Xin Zan hurriedly wrote the official text, sealed it with wax, and pasted three feathers on the letter paper,
The feather book mentioned by Xin Zan is the "chicken feather letter" that we are familiar with. In addition to pursuing speed, the feather book should also pursue accuracy. After the king returned to the Song Dynasty, he gradually learned some ancient meanings. Why did he choose the chicken feather adhesion emergency as a special logo? First of all, it is because the chicken has the five virtues evaluated by the ancients: "With The crown is the text, the distance of the foot is the martial arts, the enemy dares to fight in front of the courage, the food calls for benevolence, and the vigil is trustworthy. The urgency of the transmission machine should be like a chicken morning, even if it is wind, rain, thunder and hail. In addition, the Chinese people regard the chicken as an auspicious chicken, which is also the implication that it can turn good luck into good luck. Of course, it may also be because chicken feathers are far easier to obtain than bird feathers,
Xin Zan handed the letter to the king and said, "Wang Shilang, you take Yushu to the express delivery shop to get the fast horse. Yushu delivers 500 miles a day, and Wang Shilang can arrive in one day. With this book, Wang Shilang can report to the emperor directly without passing through the Privy Council."
Wang thought that he could not pass through the Privy Council without a feather book. He had a gold medal given by Yelu Hongji in his hand, and even the emperor's bowl could go in and out at will. However, he estimated that even if there was a gold medal, he could not borrow a hurry horse without this chicken feather letter. He thought to himself: If it was calculated according to the last time, Ye Lvzong Even if Yuan has now arrived in Liaoyang Prefecture, he began to prepare troops to prepare food and fodder. Until he is fully prepared to arrive here, it will take at least a month. He must be in time before Yelu Zongyuan and Yelu's thorn bamboo action,
The king called Zhang Ping and Han Derong, and took Xin Zan's feather book to the urgent delivery shop to get the fast horse. The wind was like lightning. It took more than half a day from Prince Mountain to the bowl of Yelu Hongji, Dadingfu, Zhongjing.
This is the fastest action since Wang's side came to the Song Dynasty. When Wang's side came to Zhongjing Dading Mansion, he felt light when he got off the horse. No wonder for the urgent horse, the court stipulated that there would be an urgent delivery shop every section of the road. The urgent horse should be changed, not only changing the horse, but also stipulated that there were several urgent delivery shops. It needs to be replaced, and the urgent official documents should be delivered day and rain. If you don't change people, you will travel hundreds of miles, and the immortals will be tired. This is not like cars. Cars have fatigue driving, let alone horse riding,
For Wang and others, there is no need to change people. This distance is not too far, and you can't change it if you want to.
The speed of the urgent horse is really indescribable. The urgent postman is tied with a copper bell. When running on the road, the horse runs up and rings the bell, which can be heard from afar. Moreover, at night, passers-by have to avoid it when they see it. Because the court has a rule, it is not responsible for being hit by this horse, which makes Wang Bing couldn't help but think of Du Fu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, wrote in the poem "Eight Songs of Qiu Xing" and wrote: "Ji Bei Guanshan Jin Gu Zhen, Zheng Xi Che Ma Yu Shu Chi."
The king held the gold medal given by Yelu Hongji, and no one stopped him. When he went to Oluduo, the bodyguards were extremely polite when they saw the gold medal. What on earth did this thing write? It actually work so useful. The gold medal was very useful, but the king was empty. The emperor Yelu Hongji was not holding the bowl,
It doesn't seem appropriate to find the queen. It's not appropriate to find Xiao Ying. In case Xiao Ying is not there and it's a waste of time, Wang's side stood in the tent and looked around. They came out in the morning. Now it's dark. Now Wang's side is really a little tired. His stomach is purring. By the way, go to Yelu Liangren and he is doing it for himself and his brother. Padded pads with stuttering,
The king thought about it and walked towards Ouluduo,
Yelüliang heard the palace man report that the king had come. He wondered why the king was not in the prince's mountain and how he appeared in the bowl. He invited the king's side to a tent near Oluduo. Seeing that the three people next to the king were full of dust, he described fatigue, he hurriedly asked, "Wang Shilang, there is something urgent to come here like this, but there is something urgent."
The king arched his hand and said, "I have an important letter to the emperor. The emperor is not holding the bowl. The good manager knows where the emperor has gone."
Yelu Liangren saw that Wang asked in a hurry and hurriedly replied, "Uncle Huang is not feeling well. The emperor will visit him in person."
It's bad. I don't know that Yelu Zongyuan wants to lead the king into the urn and deceive the emperor to Liaoyang Mansion. The tower on the Prince's Mountain was built in vain. "The emperor went to Liaoyang Mansion." Wang couldn't help raising his tone and asked in surprise,
"Of course not..." Yelu Liangren waved his hand and explained, "The emperor just went to Uncle Huang's camp"
"Who accompanied him?" The king remembered the inspection in front of the hall next to the emperor and hurriedly asked,
Yelüliang has doubts in his heart. What's wrong with the king today? Why did he hear that the emperor was so nervous to visit the emperor's uncle, but he couldn't answer. Yelu Liangren said truthfully: "Today, King Xiao and Yeluren accompanied the emperor to visit the emperor first."
When Wang heard that Xiao Ying was there, he was secretly relieved. He and Xiao Ying shot in the military field of the State of Song a few years ago. He had seen Xiao Ying's martial arts skills. Obviously, if he really did it, Xiao Ying could still be in a low level beside the emperor.
Ye Lvren was first a counselor beside the Liao Emperor Yelu Hongji and the prime minister of the Southern Court. The king had seen this man twice. Ye Lvren was first handsome and claimed to be brave and resourceful. This Ye Lvren first asked Song Renzong for land in ten counties south of Waqiaoguan (now Xiong County, Hebei Province), and then forced Song Renzong to agree. Every year, it adds 100,000 taels of silver and 100,000 pieces of silk to Liao,
Yelu Hongji was accompanied by two generals to visit Yelu Zongyuan. The king was naturally relieved. Yelu Liangren looked at the king and relaxed: "I guess if the emperor's uncle is really ill, he will have a banquet for the emperor in his tent. How about, I'll take the king's servant over."
Wang is already here, and he knows that Yelu Hongji is temporarily safe. He relaxes his heart and feels tired and hungry: "Good manager, please get some food for my two brothers outside the account. They have come with me all the way. I guess it will be hungry and tired."
Yelüliang said quickly when he heard it, "Oh, it's really my fault. I didn't treat you well. Wang Shilang sat down for a while." After saying that, Yeluliang ordered people to prepare drinks and food for the king in the tent, and arranged a place for Zhang Ping and Han Derong to let them rest first,
When he settled down, he came back and said to the king, "Wang Shilang has worked hard all the way. I guess the emperor will come back after a while. Why don't I sit with Wang Shilang for a while?"
Although Wang was also hungry, there was a good man who looked at him eating, which was a little awkward. He smiled and said, "It's better for the good manager to eat and chat with me for a while."
Yelüliang is very cheerful: "Okay, Wang Shilang is watching me, so I'll drink with Wang Shilang and wait for the emperor to come back." With that, he sat opposite the king
Now the king is much more comfortable. While eating and chatting, he also observed Yelu Liangren. I don't know if this Yelu Liangren can be his own crosstalker. Can this person really be as loyal as Yelu Hongji said?
Wang's side has this idea, which has to start from the comparison between Yelu Hongji and Li Liangzuo: Li Liangzuo was a king for the first time, and lacks the guidance of a famous teacher. He agrees with and admires the situation and reality of Xixia analyzed by Wang; and Yelu Hongji is a relatively mature king. Although he temporarily saved Liao, if he thinks of himself afterwards. In the inside of Liaoning, it is inevitable that you will not be wary of yourself. It's better to test whether Yelu Liangren is really a loyal person. It is better to let the people around the emperor do some things.
Wang thought about it. At this time, he had almost eaten. He said to Yelu Liangren, "This time, I have benefited a lot from coming to Liao. Some time ago, I met a senior monk in Tianwang Temple. He is knowledgeable and I admire him."
Yelüliang was also a monk of Tianwang Temple. When he saw that the king mentioned Tianwang Temple, he couldn't help asking, "What Wang Shilang said, is it Master Qi Song?"
Wang nodded and smiled, "Exactly." After he finished speaking, he looked at Yelü's expression,
Yelu's good man smiled and said, "Master Qi Song is a Taoist monk. He is proficient in Buddhism, Buddhism is profound, and the determination of practice is beyond my reach."
Yelü Liangren said that he was very calm, and Wang Bian asked tentatively, "Is it true that the general manager of the Liangren is familiar with Master Qi Song?"
This reminded Yelu Liangren of the past, which made him a little ashamed. He said with shame on his face, "To tell you the truth, I should have practiced Buddhism with Master Qi Song, but because of my lack of determination, it is difficult to guard against my heart and do something wrong. Fortunately, I have been forgiven by the master and the favor of the emperor, so I have always been I'm ashamed to stay with the former emperor and the current emperor.
The king nodded. Ye Lvliang was an honest person. He was very impressed by the few meetings with Ye Lvliang. First, the general manager of this good man was gentle and modest at all times, and he could not see the favor and indulgence from the emperor at all. Second, Princess Yan behaved lightly to the king on that day, and Ye Lvliang respectfully advised him. , but don't say much afterwards,
The king thought of something strange: that day, he saw the first time that day, he saw the bamboo of Yelü. At that time, the good man seemed to be a little afraid of the bamboo of the bamboo,
