Carrying the heavy trust of the court, Chen Fu, the Minister of Personnel, who was only 28 years old, was escorted by four guards and arrived at the downstairs of Shanhaiguan City. The guards guarding the city were standing tall and saw a young man wearing a white round necktie slowly walking down from the black-covered carriage, with calm behavior.

"Who is under the city?" the guards of the city asked sternly.

Chen Fu raised his head and said with a clear voice: "Chen Fu, the Minister of Personnel, came to pay homage to His Highness the King of Liao by the Emperor."

The city gate was too high, and the guards guarded the city could not see the person's face. However, when they heard that it was an official sent by the court, they immediately sent someone to open the door and take over the tooth sign in Chen Fu's hand. The tooth sign was made of ivory and engraved with the name of the person holding the licensee, the official position and the yamen where the officials were located. If officials want to enter the palace, they must wear tooth signs.

Confirm that the tooth sign was not forged, the guards looked Chen Fu up and down and immediately reported to the King of Liao. Chen Fu was calm and calm, and smiled and watched the city gates close again. It was mid-September, and the autumn was clear and cool. Chen Fu looked up at the autumn scenery from time to time, feeling at ease, as if he was just a business trip to visit the north.

Time passed little by little, and suddenly, the city gate opened again, and the guards waved to Chen Fu and the others from afar.

The King of Liao wanted to see him.

Chen Fu bowed to the guards and then ordered the coachman to step on the stool. He went into the carriage again, without any tension as if a sheep were entering the tiger's mouth.

The carriage was rumbling and passing through the pass, his vision suddenly became clear. Outside the pass was a vast grassland that could not be seen at all, and the army of the Liao king was stationed not far away.

When the carriage arrived outside the military camp, without waiting for the soldiers guarding the camp to call, Chen Fu asked the coachman to stop the car in advance, lifted up his clothes and put them off.

The sky was blue and green, his clothes were covered in white, and his face was as beautiful as jade. The mighty and rough soldiers on both sides were stunned. After a while, someone deliberately sneered: "Fortunately, I said it was an envoy in advance, otherwise I would have thought that the court sent a stunning beauty to deliberately confuse our military morale!"

When he smiled, the people around him laughed, and they all looked down on the young envoy in front of him.

The four guards behind Chen Fu were furious and pulled out their swords.

The soldiers on the side of the Liao King glared, and also drew their swords toward each other, saying contemptuously: "If you have the ability, come and try it!"

"Dare you ask, is this the prince's way of treating guests?" Chen Fu was not angry or persuaded, but only asked the ritual officer who came out to greet him.

The ritual official looked at his demeanor and guessed that the envoy was not an ordinary person, so he angrily scolded the soldiers on the side of the Liao King to stop the sword first.

Chen Fuli exchanged and gave a wink at the four people behind him: "You stay here, I'll go to pay homage to the prince."

After saying that, Chen Fu followed the official of Li and walked towards the Liao King's tent.

In the big tent, the Liao King sat upright in the main seat, Xiao Zhen, Huo Weizhang, Chai Xiong and Zhang Jin, four generals sat in the lower left head of the Liao King in two.

"Prince, the envoy Chen Fu asked for a visit."

“Bring in.”

The guards raised the door curtain, and the Liao king looked at the door at the same time. They saw the visitor wearing a white round neck robe, with a tall figure of eight feet long. When they suddenly appeared, they looked like a jade tree from the sky. Looking at their appearance, their face was like a crown and jade, and their appearance was beautiful. A pair of peach blossom eyes swept over calmly, like a flowing light, shining brightly.

The King of Liao was stunned, stunned the brilliant style of the young envoy, and the second one seemed to have seen his eyebrows and eyes. After a brief thought, a handsome and childish little face suddenly appeared in his mind. Looking at Chen Fu, one big and one small were clearly carved according to the same mold.

The King of Liao looked at Xiao Zhen in a vague way.

Xiao Zhen stared at the handsome envoy diagonally opposite, subconsciously clenched his left hand, and a red rope was tied to his wrist under his sleeve.

"Secretary Chen Fu, pay homage to the King of Liao." Chen Fu has long been used to the surprise of strangers when they see him, and saluted himself to the King of Liao.

The King of Liao coughed and smiled and praised, "Chen Qing is so handsome."

Chen Fu said frankly: "The prince praised it, the prince's son, the prince's son, the phoenix grandson, and the subordinates are in front of the prince, just like the stars in the bright moon, and they dare not speak out."

The King of Liao laughed loudly, and the tense atmosphere in the tent suddenly relaxed.

Huo Weizhang curled his lips and handed Xiao Zhen a look, looking down on the flattery of the civil servants.

Xiao Zhen lowered his eyes, and the faces of Su Jin, Archer and Chen Fu kept appearing in his mind. He had always been puzzled. Su Jin was a woman who refused to suffer losses. What kind of man could deceive her before marriage? When he saw Chen Fu today, Xiao Zhen finally understood the reason.

The King of Liao laughed enough over there, suddenly shook his face, stared at Chen Fu and asked, "What are you here?"

Chen Fu bowed and said, "After the emperor's order, he came to persuade the prince to surrender. The emperor said that as long as the prince is willing to surrender, he will not blame any past affairs. The prince will continue to return to Fengyang to be your Liao king, guard Liaodong for the court, and jointly defend foreign enemies."

The four generals of Huowei looked at the Liao King at the same time.

The King of Liao sighed and smiled bitterly, "I have lived in Fengyang for a long time and don't want to run around. However, the emperor was young and was bewitched by the treacherous ministers of the court. He first forged the will and refused to allow me to join the King of Qin. The King of Jin went to the capital to mourn the late emperor. Later, he believed in slander and false accusations, which caused the royal brothers to be killed. As the emperor, if I did not eliminate those villains for him, wouldn't I have let down the teachings of the late emperor when he was alive? Since it was a clear lord and the villains were not destroyed, how could I retreat and surrender? Go back and tell the emperor for me that as long as the court lost the treacherous ministers, I would apologize and ask for punishment."

Chen Fu looked at the Liao King without answering, exploringly.

Hovezhang couldn't help but yell at him: "The prince asked you to go back, didn't you hear it?"

Chen Fu looked at him, suddenly smiled, and looked at the King of Liao and said, "As the prince said, the emperor believed that villains were unjustly killing loyal and kind, and the ordinary and treacherous ministers in the court were in power and only cared about using their power to seek personal gain. If the subordinates went back, they could only watch the Great Zhou royal family killing each other, the people were innocently affected, and the foreign enemies gloat. It would be better to stay by the prince's side, give advice for the prince, and end the battle as soon as possible to return peace in the world."

The King of Liao narrowed his eyes.

Huo Weizhang stood up and pointed at Chen Fu and sneered: "The scholar is so arrogant. You can't stand the power of a chicken. Why do you threaten you can help the prince?"

Chen Fu smiled, took out a memorial from his arms without any rush, and said to the King of Liao: "The prince can govern the country with literature and martial arts and can maintain national affairs. The official is far away in the court and has long been to serve the emperor. This is the first plan offered by the official for you. Please take a look. If the prince thinks it is not advisable, the official will leave immediately and return to the capital to wait for the imperial court to come to an end."

The King of Liao was half-believing and half-doubted. After taking the memorial handed over by the eunuch, he opened it and saw that there were only a few short lines of words written on it: defending the city costs soldiers and food, and getting to the city today and losing tomorrow, it is just a waste of time. The army will kill the capital in one go. When the prince ascends the throne, the whole world will be collected.

The word "Qingfeng" is proud, and every word "Guo" is "Guo"!

"Okay! Yunting is really a divine weapon given to me by God!" The King of Liao put down the memorial and strode to Chen Fu, holding Chen Fu's hands excitedly. It is hard to find good generals, and good counselors are rare. The King of Liao concluded that the strategy Chen Fu just stated in the memorial could save him the lives of countless soldiers.

Chen Fu was secretly shocked. He was already a fifth-rank official in the capital, and he was young and promising. However, the new emperor was young and frivolous, and only had a few important officials in the cabinet and the six ministers. He never took them, such as the fifth-rank official, and perhaps he could not call his name even if he saw him. The King of Liao was thousands of miles away, so he could call him his name!

After being shocked, Chen Fu was even more sure that he had followed the right person when he looked at the King of Liao with Long Zhang and Fengzi.

"I will definitely devote myself to the trust of the prince and help him achieve great achievements as soon as possible." Chen Fu lifted up his robe and knelt on the ground to formally recognize his master.

The King of Liao smiled and helped him up. After looking at Chen Fu for a moment, the King of Liao suddenly frowned and said caringly: "Yunting joins me, are your parents and wives young and settled?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Zhen looked up and stared at Chen Fu.

Chen Fu said calmly: "My parents have passed away long ago, my wife is weak. She died of illness at the beginning of last year and has never left any children for me. Therefore, I am alone now, and I have no worries and can do whatever I want."

Xiao Zhen pursed his lips.

The King of Liao patted Chen Fu's shoulder and said meaningfully: "Yunting is at ease to do things for me. If things are done in the future, I will give you the same beautiful family as a flower."

Chen Fu just thought it was polite and thanked him with a smile.

Xiao Zhen's face turned dark and he couldn't help but stare at the Liao King.

The King of Liao could not detect his thorny eyes? After Chen Fu went down to rest, the King of Liao left Xiao Zhen alone and said with a smile: "What is Chen Fu and Archer's relationship? You should have seen it?"

Xiao Zhensu said: "I know, but he was betrayed by the Su family back then, and the Su family may not be willing to remarry. Archer also said that he only recognized Feng Shi as a father, and this is the family affairs of the mother and the mother. Please do not interfere."

If a general dares to speak to his master like this, the entire military camp will probably be Xiao Zhen.

But King Liao was talented and Xiao Zhen was upright. Although he spoke occasionally, he would write everything on his face and feel at ease when using it. Therefore, King Liao was not angry, but liked Xiao Zhen's frankness and nodded: "General is right, don't worry, I am not that leisurely. On the day of success, I will arrange for Chen Fu to meet Archer. Whether he can recognize his son and win back his wife and children depends on his own."

Xiao Zhen thought to himself that he would not give a look to Chen's surname!

But the Liao King had already made concessions. No matter how stupid Xiao Zhen was, he would not ask the Liao King for continuous requests.

The Liao King also had to reconsider the combat plan, waved his hand, and let Xiao Zhen go down first.

As soon as Xiao Zhen returned to his tent, Huo Weizhang came with a jar of wine, expressing his dissatisfaction with Chen Fu without any concealment: "A young man is only good at flattering, why does the prince rely on him?"

Xiao Zhen had never heard Huo Weizhang speak so well. He picked up the wine bowl and drank it in one go, and sneered: "The prince now relies on him. Whether he can rely on him for the rest of his life depends on whether he has real skills!"

Neither of the two generals who led troops to fight looked down on the weak scholar.

However, Chen Fu gave advice to the King of Liao. The King of Liao took four months to leave Shanhaiguan and retreated, which was in vain. After Chen Fu, the King of Liao rushed to the north bank of the Yangtze River with a broken bamboo, and was separated from the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty by a river!

At this time, Chen Fu had already become the number one counselor around the King of Liao. It can be said that if the King of Liao was still furious the moment before, as long as Chen Fu came, the King of Liao would immediately become happy and smile, which shows the King of Liao's reliance on Chen Fu.

Xiao Zhen and Huo Weizhang looked at each other, neither convinced nor had to accept it. Who made the little white-faced plan work?

However, the court still had 500,000 troops to protect the capital. At the critical moment, Emperor Huiwen sent Princess Shouning's son-in-law Guo Yao to lead the army and dispatch troops early on to fight against the Liao King's army.

The King of Liao did not want to take action, because once they fought, both sides would be defeated.

He rode a horse first, got out of the line and got close to Guo Yao, calling him Guo Yao's sister-in-law.

Guo Yao said to him with a word: "Treason thief, don't want to marry me!"

The King of Liao was almost angry to death by being insulted by the prince-consort in front of the two armies!

Chen Fu offered advice: "Prince, Guo Yao is brave outside, but when he returns home, he is very afraid of Princess Shouning. Princess might as well send someone to persuade the princess to surrender."

The King of Liao was filled with joy and slapped his legs and said, "Yes, why didn't I expect this!"

When he left Beijing and became a vassal, the five-year-old Princess Shouning once hugged his neck and cried. The brother-sister friendship is deep. Should Shouning remember it?

The King of Liao immediately wrote a letter and sent it to Princess Shouning with deep affection.

Princess Shouning is not the only princess in the capital. Emperor Huiwen has a sister, Princess Fuqing. Relying on the support of Emperor Huiwen, she usually acts as a hero and often does not take Shouning and other princesses in her eyes. Princess Shouning has been resentful for a long time. Today, she received a letter from the King of Liao and said "my sister" at once. She was very intimate. Princess Shouning suddenly found the opportunity to take revenge on Princess Fuqing!

The Liao army was eyeing the north bank of the Yangtze River, and the court was at a disadvantage. If she persuaded her son-in-law to turn against her, Emperor Huiwen would be completely finished. When Emperor Huiwen fell, Princess Fuqing would have to follow her. However, Princess Shouning was kind to the Liao King. After the Liao King ascended the throne, which princess could still compare with her?

The more Princess Shouning thought about it, the more she felt it was cost-effective. She packed up her things and quietly took her children to leave the capital and crossed the river to meet her husband.

The prince-in-law Guo Yao refused to turn against him at first, so Princess Shouning pulled her children and cried and wanted to die. Guo Yao was afraid of Princess Shouning more than she loved, but she couldn't bear to cry with her children. In desperation, she really surrendered.

Princess Shouning happily reminisces with the King of Liao.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Emperor Huiwen of the palace burned the palace that night and died.

As soon as Emperor Huiwen died, his son-in-law Guo Yao felt guilty and regretful, and soon committed suicide and apologized.

Princess Shouning cried, but the reward given by the new emperor, King Liao, after ascending the throne, quickly sootheed her pain of losing her husband.

Emperor Zhengde, the King of Liao who successfully ascended the throne, took a month to shock the court. When the overall situation stabilized, Emperor Zhengde issued several orders in succession.

First, Emperor Zhengde appointed the Princess of Liao as the Queen and immediately sent someone to pick up the Queen, the eldest prince and the third prince to the capital. The second prince always followed him to march and attack, and is now staying in the capital.

Secondly, Emperor Zhengde was awarded the title of meritorious officials, Xiao Zhen, Huo Weizhang, Chai Xiong and Zhang Jin, and among the civil officials, Chen Fu was promoted to the chief minister of the cabinet.

The rest are some decrees to appease officials and the people.
