Chapter 229 Yelu Deguang enters the capital
Zhang Yanze sat down proudly to meet Sang Weihan. Sang Weihan accused him and said, "Last year the emperor promoted you from the sinners, and asked you to take charge of a large vassal state and granted you military power. How could you be so ungrateful!" Zhang Yanze had nothing to answer and sent troops to guard Sang Weihan.
Zhang Yanze indulged the soldiers to loot, and the people also fought to break into the homes of rich people while taking advantage of the chaos, killing people and robbing money. The trouble was stopped for two days. At this time, the capital had been looted. At Zhang Yanze's residence, money and treasures were piled up like mountains. He thought he had made contributions to the Khitan, so he drank wine, listened to music, and indulged in entertainment day and night.
Every time Zhang Yanze entered and left, there were often hundreds of cavalrymen who followed him. His flag was written with the four words "Broken Heart as the Main". Everyone who saw him on the roadside laughed and mocked him. He immediately sent people to arrest them and took them to him. He didn't ask what the crime he committed. He just stared at him, raised his middle finger, and pulled them out and beheaded. Zhang Yanze had always been incompatible with the envoy Gao Xun, so he came to his house drunk, killed Gao Xun's uncle and brother, and put his body in front of the door. The scholars and people were chilling when they saw it.
Li Tao, the clan of the Secretariat, said to people: "Even if I escape into the ditch, I cannot avoid death. I might as well go to see him and let him deal with it." So he turned to the famous assassin to see Zhang Yanze and said to him: "I wrote a letter to ask Li Tao, the man who killed the Taiwei, to come and ask him to die." Zhang Yanze met him happily and asked Li Tao, "Are you scared today?" Li Tao said: "My fear today is just like your fear back then. If Emperor Gaozu heard me, Li Tao, how could things go to this point!" After hearing this, Zhang Yanze laughed a few times, and ordered people to bring wine to Li Tao. After Li Tao filled the glass, he drank it all, and then left as if no one else was around.
Soon, Zhang Yanze moved An Chonggui and his family and relatives to Kaifeng Prefecture, and ordered that they would not stay for a moment, and cried in the palace. Only the empress dowager, the queen, the queen, and more than a dozen people followed him on foot. Everyone who saw him on the road shed tears. Shi Chonggui wanted to carry all the gold, silver and jewelry in the inner warehouse with him.
Zhang Yanze sent someone to persuade him, "The Northern Emperor is going to come to Beijing, but the warehouse should not be collected without authorization." Shi Chonggui had no choice but to put all the treasures back into the warehouse and divided some of them to Zhang Yanze. Zhang Yanze selected the rare treasures and sealed the other treasures for Yelu Deguang to deal with them.
Zhang Yanze sent Li Jun, the commander of the crane control commander, to lead troops to guard Shi Chonggui. He completely cut off the connection between Shi Chonggui and the outside world. Shi Chonggui's aunt Princess Wu bribed the janitor, came in and said goodbye to Shi Chonggui, and then returned home and hanged himself. The seals that Shi Chonggui and the Empress Dowager gave to the Yelu Deguang Institute of Liao Kingdom were all for Zhang Yanze to see first before they dared to issue them.
Shi Chonggui asked someone to go to the warehouse to get a few sections of silk from the warehouse. The person in charge of the warehouse refused to ask him for it and said sternly: "These are not your things!" Shi Chonggui asked for wine again, and Li Song asked someone to repay him, "It's not that I'm stingy with this little wine. I'm just afraid that after His Majesty drinks, he will be even more depressed and don't have any accidents, so he dare not take orders to drink." Feng Yu flattered Zhang Yanze and asked him to send him the treasure of the country, hoping that the Liao Kingdom could appoint him again, but Zhang Yanze ignored him.
Shi Chonggui couldn't get what he wanted and wanted to see Li Yantao, but Li Yantao couldn't refuse. Shi Chonggui was very depressed and was melancholy for a long time. At this moment, he suddenly saw the fierce official sent by Zhang Yanze and forcibly took away the wife of Chu Ding.
Ding is Shi Yanxu's mother. Although she is over thirty years old, she is still beautiful and beautiful. Zhang Yanze has long been salivating about her. Chonggui reported to the Empress Dowager and did not want her to go. The Empress Dowager hesitated for a long time and refused to give it. Zhang Yanze cursed and loaded the wife of Chu into the car and left.
That evening, Zhang Yanze killed Sang Weihan again and put a strap around his neck, making Sang Weihan commit suicide. Then, he told the Liao Lord Yelu Deguang that after Yelu Deguang learned about it, he said, "I have no intention of killing Sang Weihan, why did he do this!" He ordered people to give generous benefits to his family.
The generals of Jin, Gao Xingzhou and Fu Yanqing, also went to the Liao camp to ask for surrender. The Liao lord Yelu Deguang said that they entered the tent. The two bowed down in front of the tent. Yelu Deguang was defeated by Fu Yanqing because of the battle in Yangcheng, so he asked Fu Yanqing: "Fu Yanqing! Do you still remember the war in Yangcheng?" Fu Yanqing replied: "I went to fight that day and only knew how to serve the Jin lord, and I had no other thoughts. Today I came to apologize for life and death!"
Yelu Deguang smiled and said, "It's also a strong man. I'll forgive you for your previous crime!" Yanqing thanked him and withdrew with Gao Xingzhou. At this time, Shi Yanxu was in charge of Yanbao, and submitted the national treasures to upload them. The Liao master Yelu Deguang read the document and did not say much. He could only rub it repeatedly when accepting the national treasures, and asked Shi Yanxu, "Is this seal real?" Shi Yanxu naturally replied that it was true. Yelu Deguang pondered and said, "I'm afraid it may not be!" So he took a piece of paper from the desk, wrote several lines, and handed it to Shi Yanxu and said, "You'll go and hand it over to Chonggui."
The two came back and reported to Shi Chonggui. After reading the note from Yelu Deguang, Shi Chonggui reported, saying, "Wang Congke burned himself, and the old national treasure has long been missing and probably has been burned. This treasure was done by the late emperor, and all the ministers are aware of it. How dare I hide my treasure today!" When he wrote to Shi Chonggui, Shi Yanxu, Shi Yanbao returned from the tent, took out the edict given to the emperor by the Liao lord, and sent Jie Li to Shi Chonggui and said, "Don't worry, grandson, you will definitely have a place to eat|." Shi Chonggui felt a little calm and expressed his gratitude.
Then Shi Chonggui heard that Yelu Deguang was about to cross the Yellow River, so he wanted to go to the front with the Empress Dowager in advance. Zhang Yanze reported that the Khitan lord of the Liao Kingdom did not agree. Some officials wanted Shi Chonggui to hold a jade in his mouth and hold a sheep in his hand. The minister pulled the coffin in the carriage and went to the suburbs to greet him. He first told the Emperor of Liao Kingdom these rituals.
Yelu Deguang said, "I sent a surprise army to take Daliang directly, not to surrender. Why use such ancient etiquette? Only Jing Yanguang said rudely, which was very hateful, and should be arrested immediately!" So he sent troops to capture Yanguang and led his own army to travel across Henan. Then he issued an edict to tell the officials of the Later Jin Dynasty that everything was the same; the court system followed the Han etiquette. The relevant officials had to prepare a statutory chariot to welcome him. Yelu Deguang said, "I was wearing military uniforms and armor, but Taichang Yiwei had no time to use it." He refused.
Earlier, when Yelu Deguang came to Xiangzhou, he sent troops to Heyang to capture Jing Yanguang. Jing Yanguang was in a hurry and had nowhere to escape and hide, so he went to Fengqiu to see the Liao master. Yelu Deguang asked, "The two masters are all your things! Where is the '100,000-sharpening sword' you said?" Jing Yanguang denied it. So Yelu Deguang summoned Qiao Rong and asked them to defend each other for ten things. Jing Yanguang was dissatisfied at first, and Qiao Rong showed him what he wrote on the paper. Jing Yanguang accepted it and gave him a bargaining chip every time he admitted it. When he went to the eighth to make bargaining chips, Jing Yanguang could only put his face on the ground and requested.
Yelu Deguang imprisoned him for death. At night, I, Jing Yanguang, died of a silence.
In the first month of the following spring, the civil and military officials of the Later Jin Dynasty said goodbye to Shi Chonggui fare far north of Daliang City, and changed their white clothes and gauze hats to welcome Yelu Deguang into the city. They all slumped on the side of the road to apologize. Qi Yelu Deguang wore a sable hat, wore a sable fur, wrapped in iron armor, and immediately placed on the high mound of soil, ordered the surrendered officials to stand up, change their clothes, and comfort the officials.
The left guard general An Shuqian and his men stood up from the ranks of all officials and spoke to Yelu Deguang. Yelu Deguang said, "Are you the word "An Wu"? When you went to guard Xingzhou, you have expressed your loyalty to me many times, but I have not forgotten it." Shuqian cheered and jumped to thank him and retreated.
When Yelu Deguang entered the Daliang city gate, the people ran away in surprise. The Liao Lord climbed up to the city tower and ordered the translator to tell the people: "I am also a human being, don't be afraid! I want you to rest and recuperate. I have no intention of coming south, and it was the Han soldiers who led me here." When he arrived at Mingde Gate, Yelu Deguang got off the horse and kowtowed, and then entered the palace. He ordered his deputy Privy Councilor Liu Mi to act as the agent of Kaifeng Yin. The Liao Lord withdrew from the capital and stationed his troops in Chigang.
Yelu Deguang sent people to capture Zhengzhou defense envoy Yang Chengxun, escorted him to Daliang City, denounced him for killing his father, betraying the Liao Kingdom, and ordered the left and right people to chop him into minced meat and eat him. Soon, he appointed his younger brother, General Youyulin, Yang Chengxin, as the governor of Pinglu, and handed over all his father's old subordinates to him to lead.
Gao Xun accused Zhang Yanze of killing his family to Yelu Deguang. Yelu Deguang also hated Zhang Yanze for plundering the capital and arrested Zhang Yanze and the military supervisor Fu Zhuer. The Liao lord announced Zhang Yanze's crime to all officials and asked: "Would Zhang Yanze be executed?" All officials said: "It should be executed." The people of the whole city rushed to submit a letter of complaint and wrote a letter to Zhang Yanze's crime.
On the third day of the lunar month, Yelu Deguang ordered Zhang Yanze and Fu Zhuer to behead him, and ordered Gao Xun to behead him. Zhang Yanze's descendants carried mourning sticks and beat Zhang Yanze's body with mourning sticks in anger. Gao Xun ordered his wrist to cut off his wrist to take out the body from the handcuffs, and cut off his caesarean heart to pay tribute to the people he killed. Citizens fought to smash his head, take out his brain, chop off his flesh and eat it separately.
Afterwards, Yelu Deguang was conferred the title of Shi Chonggui as the Marquis of Defendant and placed it in Huanglong Mansion. Yelu Deguang also sent someone to say to Empress Dowager Li: "I heard that Shi Chonggui ended up today because he did not obey his mother's orders; you can do it for yourself and don't walk with him." Empress Dowager Li said: "I am very respectful to serve Chonggui. His mistake was against the will of the ancestors and cut off the good relationship between the two countries of Jin and Liao. Now he is fortunate to receive the great kindness of Your Majesty and save our lives. Where can mothers seek a home without following their sons!"
The next morning, Yelu Deguang ordered Emperor Shi Chonggui and his whole family to Fengchan Temple, and sent Datong Jiedushi and Cui Tingxun to lead troops to guard the guard. Yelu Deguang sent envoys to visit and greet him many times. Every time Shi Chonggui heard that the envoys came, the whole family was frightened and worried. At that time, it had been raining and snowing for more than ten days, and the supply was cut off outside the temple, and the whole family was cold and hungry. Empress Dowager Li sent someone to say to the monk in the temple: "I have provided vegetarian food for tens of thousands of monks here, but no one remembered me?" The monk refused, "The Khitans were unpredictable and did not dare to offer food." Shi Chonggui had to secretly beg the guards and got some food.
