King Yelu Shou of Wei was tied up and brought up. Yelu Hongji was lying on the couch, his face was pale and covered with thick veil. Although Yelu Pingguang did not shoot the center of the heart, he was lucky to not die on the spot, his injuries were still very serious, and just taking the arrow almost killed him.

"Yelu Shou, do you know your sin?"

Yelu Hongji's eyes were extremely angry and he stared at Yelu Shou, but his injury was too serious, so he couldn't have an attack.

Yelu Shou was pressed to kneel in front of Yelu Hongji. He knew that he would die, so he simply gave up. He raised his head and cursed: "Yelu Hongji, you are the guilty one. The country that my ancestors and ancestors have worked hard to defeat them, but they are destroyed in your hands. You squandered the people, plundered the royal family, trusted the treasury, harmed the loyal and kind, resulting in the emptiness of the national treasury and the boiling resentment of the people. You acted rashly in military affairs, hundreds of thousands of Khitan warriors were killed in your hands. Nanjing was lost, Xijing was lost, Zhongjing was lost, Tokyo was lost, Great Liao Empire was betrayal, and the country was destroyed. What face do you have to see Taizu and meet the ancestors and ancestors!"

Yelu Hongji was so angry that he trembled all over and waved his hand, "Go out and cut off the dogs to death!"

The guard dragged Yelu Shou down, and Yelu Shou shouted: "Yelu Hongji, you don't even let go of your own son, you will be destined to be absent from your descendants. Yelu Hongji, you are the eternal sinner of the Great Liao Dynasty."

Yelu Shou's voice gradually disappeared, but his curse was like a knife to kill Yelu Hongji's heart and liver. Yelu Hongji suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood and fainted in the sky.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

The imperial physicians around him were so scared that they tried their best to rescue him. After a while, Yelu Hongji slowly woke up. He sighed, "I am indeed guilty!"

"Your Majesty is seriously injured and needs to maintain the dragon body. Let's talk about everything when the injury is healed."

"Go and call Hong Tai!"

Soon, Yelu Hongtai hurried over, knelt down and bowed, "I am the emperor to see Your Majesty!"

Yelu Hongji said in a low voice: "How much has the 40,000 troops lost?"

"Your Majesty, you have lost about half of it. Yelu Pingguang fled and his whereabouts are unknown."

"What about us?"

"Nearly 10,000 casualties."

Yelu Hongji was extremely regretful. He only had 70,000 troops left, and he was tortured by Yelu Shou and 30,000 were really about to perish. The Liao Kingdom was really about to perish.

"Is there any news in Tokyo?"

Yelu Hongtai nodded, "Just just received the news that the Song army fleet blocked the Liaohe River. Fan Ning led a large army to the west bank of Liao Kingdom and would launch an attack on Liaoyang City at any time."

"I'm incompetent!"

Yelu Hongji sighed again and said to Yelu Hongtai: "The ministers outside forgive them for not guilty. I will only pursue the guilt of the King of Wei and the son of the King of Wei, so that they can be relieved. Go!"

"Brother, please take care of the dragon body. My brothers will restore order in Beijing as soon as possible and revitalize the army."

Yelu Hongtai asked the imperial physician a few more words and hurried out.

There were hundreds of ministers kneeling in the square outside the hall. Although they did not directly participate in the rebellion, they participated in the establishment of the crown prince Yelu Yanxi as emperor. Now Yelu Hongji has been killed, the King of Wei and his eldest son were killed by random knives, and their wives and concubines were punished as camp prostitutes, which made every minister very frightened, fearing that the emperor would be furious and affect his family.

At this time, King Yelu Hongtai of Liang walked out quickly and stood on the steps and whispered to the ministers: "The emperor only pursued Yelu Shou and his family's guilt, and all other ministers will be pardoned. Everyone should go home!"

The ministers cheered, the right prime minister Yelu Ruinu, the left prime minister Liu Shi, and the Privy Councilor Yao Jingxing stepped forward and asked with concern: "Your Highness, how is the emperor's injury?"

Yelu Hongtai shook his head and said with a heavy face: "Although the arrow did not hit the center, it penetrated the left lung. The emperor's injuries were very serious. The imperial physician said that he would have to recuperate for at least half a year before his health would recover slowly."

"What should I do if the crown prince?" Yelu Ruinu asked carefully.

He supported the one-year-old crown prince Yelu Yanxi ascended the throne. Yelu Ruinu was also one of the masterminds. He was afraid that Yelu Hongji would settle his head.

Yelu Hongtai knew that this prime minister was an old man, so he would go there and his reputation was unreliable. However, now the Liao Dynasty is in danger and cannot be in chaos anymore. It is necessary to stabilize the court.

Yelu Hongtai hinted to him: "I heard that Zhang Xiaojie's crime of affair with the Song Dynasty was exposed and he committed suicide because he was afraid of the crime. There is also the evidence of Yelu Yixin's affair with the Song Dynasty. I believe they have other crimes. You can collect it. The court needs to punish these treacherous slander severely. To correct the court, everyone should share the worries of the emperor!"

Yelu Hongtai had already made it very straightforward, and he pushed all kinds of crimes to Zhang Xiaojie and Yelu Yixin, and the court had a scapegoat.

The ministers immediately understood and said goodbye to each other. The next step was to collect charges and even add Yelu Shou's accomplice to seize power to Yelu Yixin.

…………

Shortly after time, the news of the fall of Liaoyang Prefecture in Tokyo reached Shangjing. At this time, because Yelu Hongji was seriously injured, he issued an order for his brother Yelu Hongtai to supervise the country to preside over the daily state affairs and to report major military and state affairs to Yelu Hongji, and he would decide.

As for the young emperor Yelu Yanxi, because he was Yelu Hongji's only legitimate grandson, and he was only one year old, Yelu Hongji did not make things difficult for him, but asked him to continue to be the crown prince and ascend the throne when he grew up.

Yelu Hongtai dared not tell his brother that Liaoyang Prefecture was completely captured by the Song army, but said that Liaoyang City was in a fierce siege, and the two sides suffered heavy casualties. However, because the military strength was too disparity, it was estimated that Liaoyang City was in a desperate situation. Yelu Hongji should be mentally prepared.

Yelu Hongji didn't care much about the situation in Liaoyang City. He knew that Liaoyang City would be captured sooner or later. If he could kill more Song troops, it would be the best. However, he hoped that Liaoyang City would be lost and that the Song army would be severely damaged.

Yelu Hongji was still recuperating in the palace, but he spent most of his time hiding in the inner study to study maps. No one knew what he wanted to do?

It has been ten days since the Song army captured Liaoyang City, and the entire Liao army on Tokyo Road has been wiped out. Fan Ning ordered the cleaning of Buddhist temples, the assets of major temples were checked, the temples were closed, and the monks were ordered to return to secular life. This was the advice given to him by the Han officials who surrendered to the Song Dynasty. The Liao temples were insatiable and not only emptied the national treasury, but also occupied the assets of the people. The Liao people hated them extremely.

If you attack the temple, since you can get a lot of money to supplement military spending, you can also gain support from the people, win the hearts of the people, and allow monks to participate in labor and solve the situation of lack of labor. It can be said that you will win three goals in one fell swoop.

Fanning adopted this suggestion and took action in more than a dozen prefectures and counties with the largest number of Buddhist temples, gaining a lot of wealth and land, and allowing tens of thousands of monks to return to secular life, which indeed won the warm welcome of the people of Tokyo.

Soon, Han Jiang took over local government affairs in Liaodong, while Fan Ning led an army of 300,000 to Dading Prefecture to join the thirty army of Emperor Zhao Xu.

In August of the third year of Xihe, 600,000 Song troops met in Changxing County, where the former Dading Prefecture of the Liao Kingdom. The entire grassland north of the county town became an ocean of troops. The tent stationed by the 600,000 troops stretched for dozens of miles, with a huge momentum.

At the same time, the Naiman tribe, Dadan tribe and Lieshan tribe of the northern grassland converged in Piedhe City and prepared to participate in the war against the Liao Kingdom.

These grassland tribes have no sympathy for the weak. They worship the strong, and the weak are just the vegetables they have on their table. When the Liao Kingdom is now in decline, the major grasslands are about to start to eat the fat piece of Liao Kingdom.

Yelu Hongtai came to the inner palace with concern. He was led into the inner study by an eunuch. He was stunned. He saw Yelu Hongji focusing on what was drawing on a map?

Yelu Hongji's injury is slowly recovering, and his arrow injury has not completely healed, but at least he can read some books and get out of bed and walk a few steps with the support of the palace maids.

"Your Majesty, I am reporting the important military information!"

Although he did not want to affect the emperor's recovery, it was of great importance. Yelu Hongtai could no longer hide it, so he decided to report to the emperor.

"Is it the Emperor of the Song Dynasty who led the army in person?"

Yelu Hongtai was shocked, "Does Your Majesty understand?"

Yelu Hongji shook his head, "I don't know, but I can guess that this kind of thing that shines the family and shows a generation of brave and wise rulers. How could Zhao Xu let go? He will definitely lead the army in person. How many Song troops are there now?"

"Report to Your Majesty, at least 600,000 Song troops gathered in Dading Prefecture and will soon launch an advance towards Shangjing. Not only them, but also Naiman tribe, Dadan tribe and Lieshan tribe are also eyeing us. I heard that the three families are preparing to join the grassland alliance, and we are attacked from north to south, and the situation is extremely serious."

Yelu Hongji sighed slightly, "I had expected this day, so I have been considering countermeasures. I have been thinking about it for a full half month. There is only one way to ensure the continuation of the Great Liao Dynasty, that is, to move the capital."

"Move the capital?"

Yelu Hongtai was immediately shocked.
