- The sudden downfall of the Wei family surprised and surprised all the officials in Liangdu, while the officials of the Wei family were filled with fear.
"Third brother, I didn't expect that the emperor would send you here!"
Seeing Yan Wentao, Yan Wenxiu and Dong Yuanxuan were very happy.
Yan Wentao smiled and said: "The emperor knows the situation in Xiliang and understands Yeyang's difficulties. He asked me to come here just to cooperate with Yeyang."
Dong Yuanxuan nodded: "Don't tell me, we really have something to ask you for."
Yan Wentao immediately became serious: "What do you want me to do?"
Dong Yuanxuan said: "The fall of the Wei family will definitely put the officials who are attached to the Wei family in crisis. The war with Xiliao is still going on. If they make trouble at this time, it will be very detrimental to the war."
"For the sake of the stability of Xiliang, I have to trouble you to go to the Capital Command and Envoys Department to announce the reason why the Wei family was raided."
"Of course, it is not to announce all the culpability of the Wei family, but only to announce that the Wei family colluded with the Western Liao and committed treason for glory during the war."
"Officials from the Wei family are not involved in this, which will make them feel more at ease."
"Yeyang has no intention of digging deeper, so Xiliang officials feel that this matter is over."
Yan Wentao nodded, and after all the Wei clan members were arrested, he took the imperial edict to the Capital Commander's Office and announced the Wei family's collusion with Xiliao.
As Dong Yuanxuan and Yan Wenxiu thought, all the officials secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they heard that the Wei family was raided because they colluded with Xiliao.
Yan Wentao looked at the officials: "The emperor has told me that Mr. Xiao is now commanding the army to fight against Xiliao. Your Excellencies must take good care of all affairs in Xiliang."
The officials nodded quickly and said, "I will obey the holy instructions."
When encountering danger, self-preservation is human instinct. Seeing that the emperor only held the Wei family responsible for colluding with Xiliao, the officials of the Wei family hunkered down and kept to themselves in order not to be implicated.
This made Yan Wenxiu and Dong Yuanxuan breathe a sigh of relief.
When Yan Wentao came here this time, he originally wanted to see the rice flowers, but due to tight time, he only saw Xiao Yeyang, and then escorted the Wei family back to Beijing.

After solving the Wei family, Xiao Yeyang focused all his energy on dealing with Xiliao.
Fighting in winter is a very torturous thing. Fortunately, Daxia's army has sufficient food and new winter clothes. The morale of the soldiers is as high as ever.
The Xiliao army was not so lucky.
Originally, Xiliao was not prepared for a war with Daxia, but it was just because they were lucky enough to get a batch of food sent by Xiao Yechi. Now that the food has been exhausted, Xiliao cannot support it.
However, facing Xiao Yeyang's proposal to become a vassal state of Daxia, the Xiliao royal family and officials could not accept it, so they could only bite the bullet and continue fighting.
Starting from October to March of the following year, Xiliao successively sent three additional batches of supporting troops, totaling more than 100,000 people. Unfortunately, they were all defeated by the Daxia army.
By this time, Xiliao was completely defeated and was no longer able to fight Daxia.
Xiao Yeyang took advantage of the victory to pursue and led 20,000 cavalry to attack directly outside the Western Liao Imperial City.
In view of the painful lesson that the Tatar royal family did not surrender and directly destroyed the country, the king of Western Liao endured the humiliation and nodded his head and agreed to become a vassal state of Daxia.
The war ended, Xiliao suffered heavy losses, and many people died in Daxia.
"Sir, what should we do with the tens of thousands of prisoners of war in Xiliao?"
Master Wang came over.
Xiao Yeyang was silent for a while and said: "Although Xiliang's defense has been strengthened after the Twelve Army Town was built, this is not enough. Let the prisoners of war build the border wall to connect the Twelve Army Town."
Master Wang¡¯s eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this: ¡°Your Excellency is far-sighted, and my subordinates will do it immediately.¡± With the side wall, Xiliang¡¯s defense will be even stronger.
After the victory of the war, Xiao Yeyang, as the commander-in-chief of the Xiliang border army, wanted to lead his troops and the Xiliao delegation back to the capital to sign an armistice agreement. He did not have time to go back to see Daohua and the children, so he could only send the news back in a hurry.
?¡
Ganzhou City.
Xiao Mansion.
When Daohua received the news of Xiliao's surrender, she immediately smiled and picked up her fat son who was wearing a red bellyband and chewing her feet.
"Daazi, your father will be back soon, are you happy?"
Daazi felt her mother's happiness, giggled, and danced her fat, lotus-jointed arms around, as if to agree with her mother.
Seeing how adorable her son was, Daohua kissed his chubby face hard.
?Gu Yu, who was standing aside, smiled and said, "The war is finally over. From now on, my uncle can stay at home and spend time with the girl and the young master."
As he said that, he paused.
¡°I just don¡¯t know how long it will take for my uncle to return to Beijing. The young master will be one year old soon, and I don¡¯t know if my uncle will be able to come back in time to celebrate his birthday.¡±
Hearing this, Daohua was also a little silent: "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back in time. It's already mid-April now."
It¡¯s my son¡¯s birthday on May 11th, and the journey from Beijing to Xiliang is not short.
Daohua looked at her son: "If your father misses your birthday, let's let him make up for it, okay?"
Daazi was still giggling, clapping his hands, and babbling.
When Daohua saw him, he was so funny: "Silly son."
?¡
The news that Xiliao was defeated and willing to become a vassal state of Daxia spread back to the capital, which directly attracted the attention of civil and military officials. Even the emperor was surprised and shocked.
You must know that Xiliang is the poorest province in Daxia and has little support from the court. Xiao Yeyang was able to defeat Xiliao steadily, which really surprised everyone.
After being shocked, I was filled with joy.
Having an additional vassal country not only demonstrates Daxia¡¯s strong national power, but also harvests a large amount of tribute every year, which is really gratifying.
Before Xiao Yeyang led the delegation to Beijing, the emperor discussed the reward with the court officials in the morning.
"Ye Yang has made great achievements this time, how do you think I should reward him?"
The ministers were not sure about the emperor's attitude, so they all remained silent.
Seeing that there was no one to speak, the emperor said to himself: "Yeyang defeated Xiliao and made Xiliao surrender. It has shown the prestige of our country and deserves a heavy reward."
The ministers quickly agreed: "Your Majesty is wise."
The emperor continued: "You also know the situation in Xiliang. The biggest foreign threat is Xiliao. Now that Xiliao has surrendered, it is time for Xiliang to be governed. Who do you think is appropriate to send?"
This question made all the officials stunned.
Is the emperor going to recall Xiao Yeyang to the capital?
To govern Xiliang
None of the officials were very interested in this. They had no choice. As a place of exile, Xiliang was too barren and bitterly cold. The climate was not good, and the conditions were too bad.
Yang Chenghua wondered about the emperor's words, then looked at the emperor's expression, thought for a while, and stood up and said: "Your Majesty, since Lord Xiao defeated Xiliang, why not let him stay to govern Xiliang?"
As he said that, he paused.
"It's just that it's definitely difficult to govern Xiliang. In addition, Mr. Xiao has made great achievements this time. After Mr. Xiao returns to Beijing, why not give him a heavier reward from the emperor?"
The emperor pondered for a while and nodded in agreement: "Yang Aiqing is right, but what should be the reward?" After saying that, he paused and said, "What do you think of naming him King Weiyuan?"
As soon as these words came out, all the officials were excited.
Does the emperor want to reward Xiao Yeyang with a royal title?
Several princes from the previous court were also shocked. You know, they have not yet been crowned kings. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
