The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

Chapter 748
In the early morning, the sky was just getting dark, and the sun had not yet risen.

The temperature outside seems to have dropped to freezing point, and the world is full of chills!

Except for some pine trees, the leaves of other poplars, willows, elms, and birches are basically gone.

Feng Jiuxiao stood in front of the window, looking at the late autumn scenery outside.

When the passers-by outside breathe, they have already started to spray white gas from their mouths, especially the white gas from the passing mules and horses is thick and long, which is spectacular!
This is a sign that winter is coming.Feng Jiuxiao looked at the white clouds like fish scales in the sky, and his mind wandered thousands of miles.

"I don't know what the hell the Khitan's sudden withdrawal of troops is doing. Could it be that they just waited for the five-nation coalition to attack Zhou at the same time in order to reduce casualties?"

"However, they can join hands with the Northern Han Dynasty to put pressure on the Great Zhou, and restrain the troops of the Great Zhou from gathering to the north. At that time, they only need to fight for a few months, and when Sejong dies, the five countries will send troops at the same time. At this time, the main force of the Great Zhou army will be In the north, the remaining troops on the east, south, and west borders are empty, so they are naturally unable to compete with the elite of the enemy, and the army is defeated like a mountain.

"The sudden withdrawal of troops must be due to some kind of internal change."

"Of course, it is the military affairs that can affect the military affairs. The withdrawal of the army from the front line means that troops are needed internally. Could it be that there has been a rebellion within the Khitan?"

"If someone hadn't rebelled, the Khitan army would have no reason to withdraw!"

Feng Jiuxiao looked at the deserted street outside, and few people came out until now.It seems that when the weather is cold, people are willing to stay in the hot bed and refuse to come out.

He knew that Liaodong people had the habit of "cat winter".

"Cat" actually means "hide" or "hidden", but it's not winter yet and all the cats are up?

It seems that cat winter is not winter, but cold!Is it "Cat Autumn" now?

However, Feng Jiuxiao also knew that the dawn was actually earlier in the Liaodong area, about an hour earlier than in the Central Plains, so it was too early to say that the people here were lazy, and it was estimated that there would be more people after the sun came out.

Feng Jiuxiao wanted to take a stroll around the area by herself before everyone got up, to appreciate the local cultural scene.

It has become his habit to "walk around" in a strange place.

Unexpectedly, Pang Shiwu woke up just as he was about to open the door, so he naturally wanted to go with him.

As soon as the two went downstairs, they saw Yuan Zishan and Chili were already waiting for them there.

Yuan Zishan squinted at Feng Jiuxiao: "I knew you wanted to go out for a walk, why didn't you call me? Want to have a private meeting with Xiao Shengnan?"

Feng Jiuxiao said with a wry smile: "Are you kidding me? I'm afraid of disturbing your rest. Besides, you haven't arrived in Shangjing yet, and he's not here. How can we have a private meeting?"

Yuan Zishan narrowed her eyes: "Oh, he's not here? This man said it very kindly! It's also very natural, it seems that he didn't say much. You said that you didn't have a chance to meet her because you didn't go to Beijing, and you will have a chance after you go to Beijing. Have a private date with her, right?"

Feng Jiuxiao immediately pulled her sleeve and said seriously: "How is that possible? No matter where I go, I can't date others in private. If you don't believe me, we will be inseparable from now on. Just keep staring at me." ?”

Yuan Zishan flicked her sleeves and glared at him, "Stay alone! What kind of arrogance is there in the public? Who is inseparable from you? It's a beautiful idea!"

Feng Jiuxiao chuckled and rubbed his nose, "Hehe, okay, okay, I don't want to talk about it, it's okay, we're both old couples and shy, huh."

"What did you say?"

"nothing!"

"go!"

"okay!"

Yuan Zishan was dressed in black men's clothes, with her hands behind her back, and she strode out with her head held high!

Feng Jiuxiao followed behind her with a smile on her face.His eyes are gentle and full of pampering.

Pang Shiwu saw that Feng Jiuxiao was still smiling after being scolded, so he sighed and wanted to complain, but he just wanted to speak when his arm suddenly hurt, but he was pinched by the pepper!

The thumb and index finger only pinched the skin, but it hurt more than pinching the flesh completely!Chili doesn't know martial arts, why is it so powerful?

Pang Shiwu sometimes wondered why the chili pepper always hit him without any suspense, just like Yuan Zishan pinched Feng Jiuxiao's ear and always hit it right away.

Is it because I am inherently undefended against peppers?So she can always hit with a pinch?
"Why are you pinching me?" Pang Shiwu's face was a little distorted, "Ah, hiss, ah, hiss, it hurts!" He kept screaming and gasping for air in pain.

"I saw that you had a sinister look on your face just now, with malicious intentions, did your dog want to spit something?"

"What can a dog spit out? It's definitely not ivory."

"Okay, you have grown up, right? You admit that you are a dog? Didn't you hear that I called you a dog?"

"Ah... hiss... I heard it a long time ago, you let go, oops, just scold me, I admit it."

"Bah! How spineless, get out!"

The four walked on the road and looked around, seeing that the Han-style architectural style here is even more "orthodox" than that of the Central Plains.Because it has always retained the architectural style of the Tang Dynasty with "huge bucket arches, far-reaching eaves, gentle folding, and rigorous layout", while the Central Plains has experienced wars and rebuilt many times, and has no patience and calmness, and the buildings are relatively "sloppy". "A little.

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Unexpectedly, the relics of the Tang Dynasty are preserved here so completely. Not only these restaurants and shops still retain the heritage of the Tang Dynasty, but even the houses have basically remained unchanged. Easy, it seems that the emperors of the Daliao Dynasty were indeed adhering to the ancestral precepts, the southern court governed the country with the Han Dynasty, and the north governed the country with the Khitan."

Pang Shiwu said: "Brother, why did the Liao Kingdom adopt one country, two systems? Why is it divided into the South and the North?"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "This is the general trend."

"The general trend?"

"Originally Khitan only occupied the land of Baishan, Heishui and Mobei Grassland. Later, they conquered the Xi, Shiwei, Zub and other tribes. The territory continued to expand, and more and more ethnic groups merged. This is how a dynasty faces the problem of ruling multiple ethnic groups. , Liao Taizu is indeed an unusual person, broad-minded, far-sighted, well-organized, and not rigid! One thing you must not think of is that he took in many refugees who fled to Khitan due to the war in the Central Plains. If you build a house for them in the same style as you, what do you think?"

"People who escaped for their lives were taken in and returned to the house to live in. I'm afraid they won't get used to it, and the house still looks like their hometown. What can people say? I'm so grateful!"

"Taizu Liao also boldly appointed Han Yanhui, Han Zhigu and other Han people as high-ranking officials and ministers, isn't he broad-minded?"

"It's easy for ordinary people to talk about it, in order to survive, but these Han people who are high-ranking officials of the Liao people are considered traitors, right?"

"Don't tell me, it really doesn't count. At that time, the Central Plains was divided into separate regimes and wars were frequent. It can be said that the people were devastated and the people were in dire straits. It was good to survive. At that time, the Khitan was also facing civil strife and couldn't take care of itself. It was not hostile to the Central Plains. The relationship is similar to that of Southern Han and Fujian today, so going to Khitan is not considered a traitor, and being an official in Khitan is not considered a traitor, because they did not do any harm to the Han people at that time."

"Then the two countries are at war now, do they count?"

Feng Jiuxiao shook his head, "Those Han people are long dead now, and their descendants are already Daliao people, fighting for Daliao is justified."

Pang Shiwu was a little puzzled, "So there are no traitors? After surrendering to the enemy, he suddenly became a high-ranking official of the enemy. Not only is he not a traitor but a hero?"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Why are there no traitors? Shi Jingtang is the biggest traitor! He ceded the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun to Khitan, called himself emperor, and sold the interests of the Han people to the enemy. This is the real traitor!"

He went on to say: "After the Liao Kingdom acquired the Sixteen States of Yanyun, the national power of the dynasty rose to a big level! According to the "Khitan Kingdom Chronicle" obtained by the Imperial City Division, the Sixteen States of Yanyun are: rich in water and rich in soil, rich in technology. "

"Grass! Selling the country and seeking glory, you really are a big traitor!" Pang Shiwu burst into foul language.

Chili kicked it away, "Keep your mouth clean!"

Pang Shiwu smiled mischievously, "In a moment of excitement, I forgot myself."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Most of the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun are Han Chinese, and they have been ruled by the Central Plains Dynasty for a long time, so agriculture and handicraft industry are relatively developed. Since the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun were included in Daliao, the Liao people began to change from the single The nomadic economy has become a situation where nomadic economy and agricultural handicraft economy coexist, that is, the north is still dominated by nomads, while the south has agriculture and handicraft industries, and the difference between the north and the south naturally appeared. Several emperors in the Liao Dynasty understood the importance of southern Liaoning, so Only then will they say: Han children must act in accordance with the laws and regulations of the Southern Dynasty in their official affairs, and they must not behave in a wrong way. To put it bluntly, let the Han people rule the Han people, and the Khitan people rule the Khitan people, so that there will be no chaos."

"How did you know?"

"I am the deputy commander-in-chief of the Imperial City Department, so I naturally know a lot."

"No, when did you read the secret report?"

"Hehe, brother, this is a secret, so you can't say it."

"If you don't say it, don't say it, I'm not interested in this anyway."

Occasionally, there are one or two elderly people wandering on the road.

It seems that the elderly sleep lightly and wake up early.

There was hardly a young man to be seen on the road.

The road here is not very wide, and it may take some trouble if two carriages pass by each other.

If, once the war starts, if the military vehicles pass through here, the speed must be very slow.
