Of course Ren Li would not believe that this was the condition for Li Hu to withdraw his troops. Li Hu was > Nowadays, a vassal state of the Song Dynasty, and Bian Jing had enough reasons to worry that Daibei would become the second Western Xia, and Li Hu would never be satisfied with being the watchdog of the Song Dynasty. The two contradictions were irreconcilable and would explode sooner or later. As for the current battle, Li Hu would definitely want to use the force of the Song Dynasty to occupy Helan Mountain, but the question is, will the Song Dynasty give it to him? Of course, the Song Dynasty would not give it to him, so Xingqing Prefecture has reason to believe that as long as Li Hu's conditions are met, the Dangxiang people can defeat the Song Dynasty again.
"Tiger King, our two families are in a marriage relationship, we are relatives, and we are connected with each other's interests. No matter whether there is a problem with any one, it will bring immeasurable losses to the other." Li Renli inspires his tongue and talks about the situation in the north. "The Song Dynasty will definitely cut down the vassal states and will definitely kill you. This is an unquestionable thing. I believe you have a full understanding and sufficient preparation for this. This is also the basis of our alliance last year, but what is difficult to understand is why you suddenly tore up the covenant between us using the excuse of Yelu Yanxi..."
"Because you don't care about this covenant at all, your purpose is to capture Daibei, expand its strength, and rebuild the three-legged tripod." Li Hu said calmly, "If you want to kill me, of course I want to kill you, this is normal."
"Our emperor does not want to kill you. This is all a traitor set up by former Prime Minister Xue Yuanli and a group of Han ministers." Li Renli opened his mouth and pushed all the blame to the Han ministers. "Three months ago, the emperor realized that these traitors were harming the country and the people, so he had arrested them and drove them out of the court."
Li Hu sneered, "If you don't have the sincerity to negotiate peace, go back immediately and we will fight to the decisive battle."
"Tiger King, will I still lie to you at this moment?" Li Renli screamed repeatedly.
"King Shu, do you think we know nothing about Xingqing Mansion?" Chai Yun couldn't help but expose Li Renli's lies on the spot. "Mr. Richard King of Jin has always adhered to active defensive strategies. Since we captured Datong, he has frequently used troops and seized the North at all costs. After we formed an alliance, Richard secretly agreed with the Jurchens to join forces to attack Daibei, and betray Yelu Yanxi to the Jurchens, which is one of the agreements. Your emperor not only did not stop it, but secretly supported it, resulting in Yelu Yanxi being captured by the Jurchens, and Princess Cheng'an committed suicide in shame. Three months ago, Xue Yuanli and a group of Han ministers were driven out of the court because they were framed by Richard." Chai Yun pointed to Li Renli and rebuked him sternly, "You are now turning black and white and deliberately deceiving us. Where is the sincerity of peace talks?"
Li Renli didn't expect that Li Hu knew everything about Xingqing Mansion very clearly, and was panicked for a moment and didn't know how to deal with it.
"You go back." Li Hu stood up and stood up to see him off. "The Song army is about to attack soon. Go back and tell Li Qianshun that you will either fight with me immediately or defend Xingqing Mansion, waiting for us to meet with the Song army and join forces to attack together." After that, Li Hu left.
Li Renli was helpless and had to leave. When he arrived at the gate, he grabbed Chai Yun and said again the words of the dead lips and cold teeth, hoping that Chai Yun would have a clear understanding of the current situation and persuade Li Hu to change his course and withdraw his troops as soon as possible.
"There is something you may not know." Chai Yun whispered. "Yelu Mage's Khitan Army is strong. In order to ensure the stability of the North, the Tiger King made a great concession. That is, the government offices on both sides of the north and south were set up in Hulie's Mansion. The Han and Fan shared their power. That is to say, the Tiger King and the Khitan people are connected. A few months ago, the Khitan people launched a retaliatory attack because you betrayed Yelu Yanxi and dragged the Tiger King into this battle. Although the Tiger King is willing to withdraw his troops, it is difficult to convince the Khitan people unless..."
"Unless what?" Li Renli asked anxiously.
"Unless you give the Khitans an explanation." Chai Yun approached Li Renli and said in a low voice. "Yelu Yanxi was betrayed by Brother Richard. If your land emperor was willing to blame him for Brother Richard and hand over Brother Richard's head to the Khitans, then there would be a turning point in this matter. The Tiger King might find a reason to convince the Khitans to withdraw their troops."
Li Renli's face suddenly changed. He stared at Chai Yun and said coldly: "Do you want to kill King Jin? If you want to kill him, think of a good way. Don't use such a clumsy divisive trick. We won't be fooled."
Chai Yun smiled slightly. "This place is indeed a divisive plan. We are going to kill Brother Richard. If you don't want to, then let's fight to the decisive battle. I can tell you. As for the current terrain, you'd better fight immediately and not delay any more. If the Song army attacks from Hengshan, you will be late. The best opportunity for the decisive battle will be lost."
Li Renli was furious and left angrily.
Xingqing Prefecture fell into chaos, and the reason for the chaos appeared to come from the evacuation preparations of Prime Minister Li Qianshun, but in fact it was a bloody battle from the Han and Fan families.
The Xiang royal family of the Party defeated the Han ministers, but the defeat of Xue Yuanli and a group of Han ministers did not have a big blow to Xingqing Prefecture. The most serious blow was the new policy that the emperor vigorously promoted. The reality of power struggle
The goal of fighting for more, and the goal of fighting for more interests is the national policy. The new policy seriously harms the interests of the royal family and the powerful. Therefore, after Xue Yuanli and other Han ministers fell, Richard and other foreign ministers were about to overturn the new policy.
At this critical moment, the attack of Hulie Mansion saved Emperor Li Qianshun and his new policy, giving him time to fight back. Richard Brother had to focus on the battlefield considering the safety of the country, and the emperor took this opportunity to pull out the Liang family's relatives to continue to escort the new policy, and pulled out the Renduo family to suppress and weaken Richard Brother. The Liang family's relatives had been in trouble for decades and had long been unpopular, but the Liang family had hidden their strength for twenty years and finally waited for the opportunity to make a comeback. Of course, they were not willing to miss it. The Renduo family has always been the pillar of Daxia, but in order to protect their descendants for generations, the Li family had to suppress it. After Li Qianshun took office, he suppressed the Renduo family to breathe. Now the Daxia country is facing a survival crisis, and Li Qianshun wants to use them again. The mentality of the Renduo family can be imagined.
The bloody battle between Richard and Xue Yuanli was the result of the return of the foreign relatives of the Liang family and the powerful people in Dangxiang, which was something that the royal ministers and Han ministers did not want to see, so many royal ministers were very disappointed with the emperor, while the Han ministers believed that the emperor betrayed them and sacrificed the interests of the Han ministers without hesitation at the critical moment, and was ruthless and unrighteous, so their loyalty to the emperor was greatly reduced.
In this case, on the surface, Li Qianshun monopolized the power, but in fact he did not believe in the local people. He could not believe in the royal family, relatives and the powerful people of the party, while the Han ministers did not believe in him. At the moment when Daxia was facing life and death, Li Qianshun and Daxia were separated from the center of the local center, and the result was imagined.
Li Renli returned to Xingqing Mansion and told the emperor that the peace talks failed, but the news he brought back made Xingqing Mansion even more chaotic.
Prime Minister Liang Qishen firmly believed that it would be too cost-effective to sacrifice King Jin at this moment to exchange a head for Li Hu's withdrawal.
Li Renzhong and Renduo would firmly oppose it. Li Hu himself said that this was a plan of dissent. King Li Chage of Jin led the Xia army for more than ten years, and had outstanding military achievements and was deeply supported and loyal to the soldiers. Killing Li Chage was equivalent to destroying the Great Wall by himself.
Li Ganshun was considering the country's destiny. All his decisions were based on preserving the country's destiny, so it was not impossible to sacrifice King Jin. However, King Jin was too strong in Daxia, and the consequences of killing King Jin could not be predicted. What was particularly serious is that if he was not careful about this matter, he might turn into a mutiny. In the end, he might not die, but himself.
Li Ganshun's hesitation made Xingqing Mansion fall into fear.
Liang Qishen was afraid that the King of Jin would rebel, and was afraid that the royal family and the Dangxiang powerful people would join forces to fight back, while the royal family and the Dangxiang powerful people were afraid of causing internal strife, and the country's fortune collapsed instantly. Li Ganshun himself was also afraid, so he thought about it again and again and sent someone to consult Xue Yuanli. After Xue Yuanli was put under house arrest at home, waiting for punishment. The emperor asked for consultation, but he had to answer, but he was afraid of being killed. His life was nothing, but he was afraid of implicating his family and subordinates. Therefore, he clearly wrote in his letter that the person who tied the bell must be untied, and the King of Jin would invite the King of Jin back, and the King of Jin would help His Majesty resolve the crisis.
After reading Xue Yuanli's letter, Li Ganshun thought of everything that Brother Richard did over the past decade, and his resentment towards him was weakened. No matter what Brother Richard did, one thing is certain. Brother Richard is loyal to Daxia, and he should believe in Brother Richard and his loyalty at this moment.
Li Ganshun decided to invite Brother Li Cha to return, let Brother Li Cha take charge of military affairs, command the Xia army, and guard the country's fortune.
Liang Qishen was shocked when he heard the news and tried his best to persuade the emperor to impose the order, but the emperor had made up his mind and received support from Li Renzhong and Renduo's protection of the country. The relatives of the Liang family were forced to go to the dead end. If Richard returned to Beijing to preside over the military, the first thing they had to deal with was the Liang family, followed by the Han ministers. Liang and Han ministers had to fight back. Liang Qishen had several close confidants, designed to frame Richard.
Although Richard's guards on the southern line, he always paid attention to the battlefield of Helan Mountain. He kept making me a report, urging the emperor to fight as soon as possible, and persuaded the emperor to lead the army to promote his military power.
At the same time, a carefully prepared impeachment memorial was sent to the emperor. Someone secretly reported that Richard was secretly contacting the royal family and the powerful people of the Dangxiang, intending to take advantage of the emperor's opportunity to lead the emperor and force the emperor to agree to Richard to return to the capital to take over the power in order to deter the traitor and defend the country.
The emperor had no one to believe in. He was suspicious in the deep palace all day long. Suddenly, he saw this secret memorial, and Liang Qishen added fuel to the fire, and his expectation for Brother Richard completely disappeared.
"The King of Jin has made contributions to Daxia and has a high prestige in the army. Your Majesty cannot kill him no matter what, so as not to shake the morale of the army." Liang Qishen tried his best to plead for the King of Jin. Considering the current situation, he suggested that the emperor transfer Richard to Gansu to guard Hexi, and minimize the threat of Jin to Xingqing Prefecture.
