Do you know: I have a different surname: Wang, uncle Minglan

(Yeli Wangrong is the elder brother of Yeli Yuqi. The previous article was written incorrectly and has been corrected)

In mid-July of the second year of Jiayou's reign.

On the grounds that Wei Yuan, the general from the surrounding area, had killed Ye Li Wangrong, Xixia mobilized an army of 300,000 to attack Zhou.

At this moment, inside the Xixia Palace.

Yeli Wangrong's younger brother Yeli Yuqi was standing in front of Li Yuanhao, his eyes fixed on Yang Shousu.

Having been in the Xixia court for many years, no matter how stupid he is, he knows that the cause of his brother's death is not simple.

Li Yuanhao glanced at Ye Li Yuqi and said solemnly: "Your brother is the pillar of my Daxia. I am very sad to see him leave."

"So, when I lead the army to attack Zhou this time, I will take you as my commander. I hope that you can avenge your brother."

Hearing the sound, Ye Liyuqi was unwilling to accept it, but he could only bow and said: "General, I will accept your order!"

Afterwards, Li Yuanhao asked him to step aside and make arrangements for the expedition.

As soon as his front legs left, Yang Shousu spoke to comfort him:

"Your Majesty, General Yeli just passed away and his body is still in Yanmen. Do you want to send someone to take it back?"

Li Yuanhao nodded and said: "You can arrange this matter. If Zhou Guo refuses, forget it. It will be the same if we capture Daizhou and bury Yeli Wangrong with a generous burial."

Yang Shousu said again: "Your Majesty, is it inappropriate for you to bring General Yeli's wife to the palace before his body is cold?"

Hearing this, Li Yuanhao frowned slightly, "Huh? Do you want to get involved in my affairs?"

Yang Shousu suddenly broke out in cold sweat on his back and said quickly: "I don't dare."

Li Yuanhao snorted coldly and said: "I brought the Meuzang family to the palace, but I felt that her husband had just passed away and it was the time when she needed someone to comfort her."

"Ye Li Wangrong has made great contributions to the country, and due to emotion and reason, I should also take General Ye Li's relatives into the palace and take care of them for the rest of my life. What's wrong with this? Who dares to gossip?"

Yeli Wangrong's wife is very beautiful, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is the most beautiful woman in the country.

Li Yuanhao, who is lustful by nature, has been coveting her for a long time, but has never had a chance.

Now that Yeli Wangrong is dead, he simply doesn't hide it anymore.

Yang Shousu did not dare to say anything more on this matter, so he turned to the matter of Ye Li Yu Qi leading the troops.

"Your Majesty, is there something wrong with the person in charge? Ye Li Yuqi may have begun to doubt the cause of his brother's death."

Li Yuanhao laughed and said: "Don't worry, I will give him an explanation, and I will also give an explanation to the founding generals."

Yang Shousu was confused, how to explain?

Suddenly, he had a bad premonition, but the thought only fleetingly passed away.

After all, Li Yuanhao was a founding monarch, so he couldn't possibly shoot himself in the foot, right?

If you really confess yourself, you won't be able to calm Yeli Yuqi's suspicion!

Yeli Yuqi decided to go to Daizhou at the end of July.

The Liao Kingdom responded and sent Yelu Yixian to lead an army of 200,000 to attack Yanmen.

Before Ye Li Yuqi went to war.

Li Yuanhao held a banquet in the palace and entertained all the generals warmly.

After drinking for three rounds, Li Yuanhao said to Ye Li Yuqi:

"I know in my heart that you have been secretly investigating the cause of your brother's death these days."

"I won't hide it from you, I'm also investigating, and finally I have some clues."

Hearing this, Yeli Yuqi said excitedly: "Your Majesty, I wonder who killed my brother?"

Li Yuanhao said sadly: "I won't tell you, but you can actually guess a thing or two."

"I sent Yang Shousu to the Kingdom of Zhou because I thought that if my envoy from Daxia died in the Kingdom of Zhou, I could naturally start a war."

"But I misjudged Yang Shousu. The person who died was not my Daxia envoy, but my Daxia general!"

The words just fell.

Yeli Yuqi immediately glared at Yang Shousu, with that look, he almost wanted to skin him alive.

The same was true for some of the generals who followed the Yeli clan in their campaigns in the north and south.

Yang Shousu was completely confused.

He was just about to get up and explain something.

Suddenly, the follower behind him took out a sharp blade and stabbed Yang Shousu fiercely.

That entourage has followed Yang Shousu for many years and has won the trust of the other party.

Yang Shousu lowered his head and looked at the short blade that passed through his chest, and then looked at Li Yuanhao who was sitting on the dragon chair. In an instant, he understood everything.

It turned out that from the moment he went to Daizhou as an envoy, he had become an abandoned son.

Throughout Daxia, no one knew that Li Yuanhao had two confidants. The first was Zhang Yuan, and the second was Yang Shousu.

Li Yuanhao looked at Yang Shousu coldly and said solemnly: "I originally wanted one of the deputy envoys or Yang Shousu himself to die in Zhou Kingdom."

"However, according to our investigation, the people Yang Shousu brought with him on his mission to the State of Zhou were all confidants he had cultivated for many years."

"He didn't want his confidant to die, so he indirectly killed General Yeli. He also told me that this time Yeli went on an expedition, he wanted to be a military advisor and wanted to get involved in the army!"

"I, I really can't bear it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Shousu was so angry that he was stabbed again. He vomited a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground, dying with his eyes open.

At this time, the confidant who stabbed Yang Shousu suddenly knelt down and kowtowed:

"Your Majesty, I have verified that Yang Shousu was indeed rebellious. I have executed him on the spot in accordance with His Majesty's will!"

Li Yuanhao nodded with satisfaction and said, "You did a good job."

After a pause, he looked at Yeli Yuqi again, "I know that maybe you don't believe what I said, but you can't disbelieve what your sister-in-law said, right?"

The words just fell.

Then he saw Mu Zangshi appear here, crying and said to Yeli Yuqi:

"Uncle, your brother wrote me a letter the day before he was killed."

"In the letter, it mentioned that Yang Shousu had very close contacts with the ministers of the Zhou Kingdom."

After that, she handed Yeli Wangrong's letter to Yeli Yuqi.

That was not written by Yeli Wangrong herself.

Mo Zang had been married to Yeli Wangrong for many years, and no one knew Yeli Wangrong better than her, including the handwriting.

Li Yuanhao said with great sorrow: "I took your sister-in-law to the palace. First, I feel sorry for your brother and want your sister-in-law to live a better life for the rest of her life."

"Second, Yang Shousu may know that your brother had written to your sister-in-law, and he is worried that your sister-in-law knows something and will harm your sister-in-law."

Yeli Yuqi read the letter in detail.

It was no different from an ordinary family letter.

It just had one more thing, that Yang Shousu had close contacts with the ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he was a little curious about it.

It was just like talking about family matters.

That's what it means to do a good job.

If the whole letter was about Yang Shousu, it would be very suspicious.

"Your brother is the pillar of our Great Xia Kingdom!"

"He noticed that Yang Shousu had a rebellious heart and wanted to investigate, but unfortunately Yang Shousu knew it in advance. After all, the delegation responsible for the mission to Zhou Kingdom was all his people."

"I'm afraid your brother was able to send the letter because it was a family letter. If he wrote to you, he would not be able to leave Daizhou at all."

"At this point, Zhou Kingdom, we still have to attack. We want to take back your brother's body with an upright army. Do you understand? I have high hopes for you!"

Li Yuanhao said earnestly.

Now that there are witnesses and evidence, Yeli Yuqi cannot help but believe it.

In fact, for Li Yuanhao, killing Yeli Wangrong or Yeli Yuqi is essentially the same.

Unfortunately, Yeli Wangrong has a beautiful wife.

So, the person who died can only be Yeli Wangrong.

As for Yang Shousu.

From the moment he asked him to arrange the mission, he was destined to die.

After all, someone has to take the blame for Yeli Wangrong's death.

As for why Yeli Yuqi was not killed along the way, it was because the time was not right.

The two brothers of the Yeli family had a high prestige in the Xixia army.

Therefore, Li Yuanhao still needed Yeli Yuqi to work for him.

——

In early August, the Emperor of the Great Zhou announced to the world.

He ordered Zhang Fu to be the commander, Gu Yankai and Wei Yuan to be the left and right vanguards, and led 400,000 troops to resist the invasion of Xixia and Liao.

Before the army arrived, Wei Yuan was in full control of Daizhou affairs.

At the end of September, Yeli Yuqi and Yelu Yixian joined forces, with Yeli Yuqi as the commander of the two armies, and marched straight to Yanmen.

In early October, Zhang Fu led the army to Daizhou.

At the same time, the family of Sheng Hong, the Tongpan of Yangzhou, took the waterway to the capital.
