[Comprehensive] Feasibility report on the restoration of the country

As soon as Murong Fu said this, Jiang Changyun exploded immediately. "Murong Fu! Brother Qiao went through life and death for you..."

"I know." Murong Fu remained indifferent, cutting the ice and jade with every word. "It's a pity that the beggar gang recognizes him as Qiao Feng, but the imperial court only recognizes him as Xiao Feng. If this official comes to the rescue, not only will the Taiwan admonishment be impeached, but the Liao Lord will also question him. If I lose my official position and go to a small job, if it triggers a war between Song and Liao How about it?"

"If the imperial court can't save you, can't you?" Jiang Changyun has been the leader of the Beggar Gang for many years, how could he not know that Murong Fu is playing bureaucratic talk with him?Thinking of Xiao Feng's scarred appearance when he saw Xiao Feng at Yanmen Pass, his face was full of tears. "Lord Murong, brother Qiao is a good brother who is bound to Jinlan with you... You don't know how ruthless those Khitan barbarians are! They poisoned brother Qiao and pierced his lute... Among them was a man named Yelu Senior officer, when talking to Brother Qiao, he likes to pull the chains on his body. As long as he pulls, Brother Qiao's shoulders will bleed profusely! He intends to torture Brother Qiao to death! Our disciples of the beggar gang failed to rescue him at Yanmen Pass, and the dog official still Said... and said that he was going to dig Brother Qiao's kneecap..."

"That's enough! Shut up!" Seeing Murong Fu's complexion becoming more and more ugly, Bao Budong finally couldn't help shouting at Jiang Changyun.

With this stern shout, Murong Fu instantly woke up.He looked at Jiang Changyun with complicated eyes for a long time, and finally replied in a low voice: "Guangzhu Jiang, I have lost my martial arts, and the power in my hand is even less likely to be used by the King of the Southern Academy of Daliao. There is really nothing I can do."

"Okay! Okay! Lord Murong, the grassroots are bothering you, please leave!" When Murong Fu got to this point, what else could Jiang Changyun have to say, and then he bowed his fists and left with hatred in his heart, swearing in his heart: In the future, the beggar gang will never die Go to the door of this Murong Xiang!

"Wait!" Unexpectedly, Murong Fu asked to stay, "Master Jiang, Duan Yu, the leader of Dali, is your brother Qiao's sworn brother, and now he is in Bianjing'Gongyihou Mansion', you can go find him. , I planted a lot of spies in Liao Kingdom..."

"Thank you, Lord Murong, for your reminder!" Unexpectedly, Jiang Changyun interrupted Murong Fu before he finished speaking. "There are countless disciples in our beggar gang, so I don't need to bother you about finding out the news!" After saying that, he immediately walked away.

As soon as Jiang Changyun left, Murong Fu couldn't support himself anymore, and staggered and fell into the seat.

"Master son!"

Abi and the three of them went to help at the same time with a cry of alarm, but Murong Fu held onto Abi's hand tightly and said, "Abi, hurry back to Swallow Pier...I'm very confused...it must be something I missed. What... must..."

When Bao BuTong and Feng BoE heard the words, they couldn't help but looked at each other, with a burst of sadness in their hearts at the same time.After a while, the troublesome party said cautiously: "Young master, you have already instructed Feng Lao Si about this matter."

With Feng Bo E's warning, Murong Fu immediately grabbed Feng Bo E's arm again, trembling: "Yes! Yes! Fourth Brother Feng, without further delay, you set off now!"

Feng Bo'e stood still, just looking at Murong Fu while hesitant to speak.Xiao Feng's matter can affect Murong Fu in this way, it is really unpredictable, it has to make him worried.

Murong Fu was really dissatisfied with the efficiency of Feng Bo'e's actions, so he couldn't help shouting: "Aren't you going soon? Go!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Seeing that Murong Fu was really angry, Feng Bo did not dare to stay any longer, and hurriedly walked out.

After the turmoil left, Bao Butong couldn't help exchanging a worried look with Abi.

Murong Fu didn't notice it at all, he saw him holding the armrest of the seat with both hands and slowly propping himself up, while murmuring in a low voice almost absent-mindedly: "Why do you have to use such a heavy hand?...Yelu Hongji and Isn’t eldest brother a sworn brother? Why? Did I miss something?… What did I miss…” He just said to himself and went to the layman.

Seeing Murong Fu so lost, the whole study was silent as if dead.After a long time, Bao Bufang sighed and said, "Abi, go and see the young master!"

"Yes!" Abi hurriedly replied, and chased after Murong Fu.

Murong Fu sat alone in the garden for a long time, until dusk fell, Abifang went up and held his hand and whispered: "Master, why don't you ask for leave!"

I saw Murong Fu frowned slightly, his mind was not yet very clear but he subconsciously resisted this suggestion. "Chong Shidao and Qu Zhen led their troops into Dali to suppress the rebellion. I can't..."

"My lord!" Abi finally couldn't help shouting at him, and said with reddish eyes. "Since you can't let go, why bother to force yourself to let go?"

Murong Fu was shocked by Abi's roar, and after a long time, he replied sadly: "I didn't force myself to let go... so what if I go?" The Beggar Clan has experienced years of development, and it is no longer the old Wu Xia Ameng.Just now Jiang Changyun said that Murong Fu would not be bothered to collect information, this is by no means an exaggeration.As for Murong Fu, since he lost his martial arts, his loss would only add to the burden.

It was rare to see Murong Fu look blank and confused, Abi felt her heart twitch, and after a while she looked at Murong Fu with tears in her eyes and said with a smile: "My lord, you don't need to do anything deliberately, as long as your lord is gone, Uncle Xiao will be happy." of……"

"Really?" Murong Fu's voice turned completely cold. "So what if you're happy? So what if you're not happy? Could it be that if he's happy, he doesn't have to die?" He looked cold and serious, as if he was lost in thought. "...Xiao Feng has the ability to lead troops and is easy to control. If he hadn't been forced to help, Yelu Hongji would never give up his arms to help. Why?"

In the original book, Xiao Feng has been vacillating between Song and Liao, but Yelu Hongji has always tolerated it until Xiao Feng refused to lead troops to attack Song.Now that Daliao has no intention of attacking Song, Yelu Hongji should not easily turn against Xiao Feng.Unless...Xiao Yuanshan did find evidence in Yanziwu that could prove Murong Fu's intention to rebel!Murong Fu believed that Yelu Hongji would never let go of this opportunity to overthrow the Prime Minister of the Great Song Dynasty and interrupt the revival of the Great Song Dynasty.But what evidence will Xiao Yuanshan find?Murong Fu tossed and turned and couldn't think of it.

Everything can only wait for the return of the storm.

At the end of April in the third year of Shaosheng, Xiao Feng was finally escorted back to Shangjing in Daliao.Lord Yelu Hongji of Liao Dynasty and Crown Prince Yelu Jun met his brother-in-law in the prison. At that time Xiao Feng was bound by nine fine steel chains, and the pipa bones on both sides pierced by iron hooks were covered with bloodstains.Perhaps it was because of the long-distance travel for the rest of this month that he suffered so much, when Yelu Jun saw Xiao Feng again, he was already crumbling, like a sick tiger caught in a trap.

When Yelu Jun saw this scene, he couldn't hold back the tears, and hurriedly fell to his knees with a "plop", begging bitterly: "Father, please spare uncle!"

Yelu Hongji ignored Yelu Jun, only looked at Xiao Feng and asked in a dark voice: "Xiao Feng, are you guilty?"

Xiao Feng was poisoned first, and soon he was ordered by Yelu Yixin to have his lute bone pierced, and he did not get any medical treatment during this journey, until the face saint was already dehydrated for a long time, his lips were almost pale.I saw his throat slid up and down twice, and finally he half-closed his eyes and replied weakly: "Xiao is guilty... It's a pity, if you give me another [-] chances, I will do the same..."

"Uncle!" Before Yelu Hongji could speak, Yelu Jun yelled loudly.

Xiao Feng turned a deaf ear to it, he took a hard breath and said again: "So what if His Majesty kills Murong Fu? Murong Fu is not the only capable person in Song Dynasty?"

"I will kill as many as there are!" Yelu Hongji replied sharply.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Feng only shook his head slightly when he heard this, and said softly: "Your Majesty, in fact, all the people in the world are the same. No matter the Han people or the Khitan people, they all want to live a good life. There is hope in the days without war. Whoever stands in their way Who is their enemy...Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it!"

Yelu Hongji really couldn't understand Xiao Feng's words, but for some reason, an inexplicable chill rose in his heart.Perhaps in order to suppress this sense of inexplicable fear, Yelu Hongji snorted impatiently, and said darkly: "When death is imminent, he is still bewitching people!" After finishing speaking, he immediately threw off his sleeves and hurried away out.

But Yelu Jun didn't leave, as soon as Yelu Hongji left the cell, he rushed over and sighed, "Uncle, since you know you have committed a crime, why do you still want to offend your father?"

Xiao Feng leaned against the corner of the wall to breathe for a while, Fang replied in a low voice: "I know the crime is due to personal affection, but it is not personal affection that I offended His Majesty." After a pause, he said again. "Prince, when a person is about to die, I have to say something from my heart." Xiao Feng was escorted back to Daliao and suffered all kinds of tortures, but Yelu Yixin was just a flattering villain, if it wasn't for Yelu Hongji's intention , he absolutely did not dare to treat himself like this.Therefore, Xiao Feng already knew that Yelu Hongji was not afraid of hurting him, so he would take his life.

"Uncle, please don't say that." Yelu Jun couldn't help but shed tears when he heard this, "Father is just a momentary..."

Xiao Feng stood upright and was never afraid of death, let alone the illusory comfort of others.Therefore, he immediately asked: "Does the prince know Huitong Bank?"

"I know." Yelujun nodded hastily when he heard the words. Yelujun has been working in the household department for several years, and he is particularly sensitive to money and food matters. Naturally, he has heard the name of Huitong Bank. "I heard that this bank was run by the people of Song Dynasty. I saw that he did not commit any crimes in the Liao Kingdom and instead supported many herdsmen, so I ignored it."

Xiao Feng smiled lightly, and said slowly: "There are also two banks in Nanjing, and their business has always been booming. They borrow money from the rich and re-lend it to the poor to help them tide over the difficulties and set up their families...Prince, this is supposed to be from the court. do!"

When Yelujun heard this, his heart skipped a beat. "What does Uncle mean... Song Guo is using the Huitong Bank to compete with us for the hearts of the people?"

"Whether they have this purpose, I don't know. I only know that since Nanjing and the Song Dynasty traded each other, the life of the Khitan people has been much better. The so-called transition from frugality to extravagance is easy, but from extravagance to frugality is difficult. Now that we have lived a good life, Anyone who mentions the closure of the mutual market is the enemy of the common people. But if the mutual market becomes bigger and bigger, the influence of the Great Song Dynasty in Daliao will also become greater and greater, and the people will naturally turn to the Great Song Dynasty." Xiao Feng was escorted back to Daliao He had nothing to do all the way, so he thought over and over what he had seen and heard since he opened up the mutual market, and finally vaguely understood the reason why Murong Fu agreed to the mutual market back then.

"That's why Murong Fu should be killed!" Yelu Jun was benevolent by nature, and he couldn't say that in order to stabilize the regime, the people of Khitan should be made poor for life.Therefore, only by killing Murong Fu, a capable official of the Song Dynasty, can the national power of the Song and Liao countries not differ too much.

Xiao Feng obviously understood Yelu Jun's implication, he couldn't help but replied bitterly: "The Great Song Dynasty was able to be where it is today, not because of Murong Fu alone. The Shu Party has a lot of talents, even if His Majesty killed Murong Fu with the hands of the Great Song officials. How? Your Majesty can't stop the Khitan people from living a good life, and the Song Dynasty officials can't stop the Han people from living a good life. The Shu Party has been in power for six years, the country is prosperous and the people are safe, and the overall situation is settled. Even if Murong Fu is gone in the Song Dynasty, the court will follow Murong If Fu's will continues to operate, Song will become stronger. At that time, what will happen to Daliao?"

"Daliao will also lead the Khitan people to live a good life, and make the people look forward to Daliao!" Yelujun said firmly.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Feng still shook his head. "The officials of the Song Dynasty are not Mingjun, so Murong Fu holds the power to control the monarchy. But what about Your Majesty?" Yelu Hongji has favored Yelu Yixin and Mu Guifei in recent years, and his governance has become more and more incompetent, but his life has increasingly focused on pleasure.On the one hand, there is the Great Song Dynasty, which is full of capable ministers, and on the other hand, is the Daliao Dynasty, where the faint king is in power and the sun is setting in the western mountains. The result is already self-evident.This is not something that can be solved by killing Murong Fu.

Yelu Jun was speechless again, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Uncle, the queen mother and orphan will definitely plead with the emperor again. Uncle is so knowledgeable, he shouldn't be killed just because of a trivial mistake!"

"No need..." Xiao Feng just smiled wryly, "If the prince has the heart, please persuade His Majesty for me!" Xiao Feng doesn't care about his own life or death, but he has to care about Murong Fu's safety.

"It's about Murong Fu?" Yelu Jun quickly poured out all his doubts when he mentioned Murong Fu. "The Murong family has a deep blood feud with uncle, why..."

I saw Xiao Feng sighed quietly, and replied softly: "The grievances between me and him may not be clear in this lifetime..." Father actually dug up the ancestral grave of Murong's family, and his current crisis is also because of me But how should I face Murong in the future?Thinking of this, Xiao Feng couldn't help closing his eyes tightly, and didn't answer any more.

Seeing that Xiao Feng was exhausted, Yelujun didn't say any more, he just told the guards to take good care of Xiao Feng.He really kept his word, soon he and Xiao Guanyin begged Yelu Hongji to intercede for Xiao Feng.Unexpectedly, Yelu Hongji had just obtained the evidence that the Murong family in Gusu was determined to restore the country from generation to generation, seeing that Murong Fu was about to be overthrown and turn the country's fortunes around, he was so satisfied with his ambition that he refused to spare Xiao Feng no matter what.Xiao Guanyin and Yelu Jun cried and begged several times, but not only did Yelu Hongji fail to show mercy, but it made him loathe their mother and child even more, and he refused to see them easily.

On this day, just after Yelu Hongji repelled Yelu Jun, Yelu Yixin, who had been missing for a long time, came to see him.

Seeing Yelu Yixin, Yelu Hongji still didn't have a good face, he just snorted coldly: "Yixin also came to intercede for Xiao Feng?" In the past few days, Yelu Jun and Xiao Guanyin have repeatedly cited Xiao Feng's past efforts in rescuing people and calming chaos Said Xiang, wanting Yelu Hongji to deal with Xiao Feng lightly, it really annoyed Yelu Hongji very much.But Yelu Yixin, who has always been considerate of his heart, disappeared, as if he was afraid of offending the queen and the prince, how could Yelu Hongji not be angry?

Unexpectedly, Yelu Yixin fell to his knees with a "plop" when he heard the words, and said in a sobbing voice, "I have discovered a secret, and after thinking about it, I have to tell His Majesty! Please hold back your Majesty!" Then he took out a stack of paper from his bosom, and on the first paper was the words "Shixiang Ci" written on it.
