Chapter 102 Section 5 The Death of the King of Jin and the Establishment of the Northern Liao Dynasty

If Xiao Fengxian wants to support his nephew to inherit the throne, he must first get rid of the strongest competitor Jin Wang and Jin Wang's biological mother Concubine Wen.So, how will Xiao Fengxian plan this matter? Xiao Fengxian was the first to file a complaint. He said that Concubine Wen's brother-in-law and brother-in-law were plotting to abolish Emperor Tianzuo and support King Jin.This hurt Concubine Wen fatally.Because there were too many such things in the Liao Dynasty, the concubines colluded with their relatives to rebel.Concubine Wen's brother-in-law and brother-in-law are both from the Yelu family, because Yelu and Xiao were intermarried from generation to generation. If they want to support Jin Wang, Emperor Tianzuo can only be the Supreme Emperor and retreat to the second line.Emperor Tianzuo wanted to take matters into his own hands, a big deal, and he did it immediately without investigation.Emperor Tianzuo first bestowed the death of Concubine Wen Xiao Sesel, and a generation of talented women died like this, just like the fate of Queen Xiao Guanyin back then.Then her brother-in-law and brother-in-law were arrested, her brother-in-law was persecuted to death, and her brother-in-law escaped.

Concubine Wen's brother-in-law is Yelu Yujian, a famous general of the Liao Kingdom, who led more than a thousand cavalry under his command to surrender gold.When Emperor Tianzuo heard that Yeluyu saw the surrender of gold, he sent his generals to chase after him. According to historical records, the generals said: "Xiao Feng was favored first, and scorned the officers and soldiers. Yu Jian is a great talent of the clan, and he has never been willing to be subordinated to him. If we capture him, we will all see him in the future. It is better to let him go." ("Liao History Xiao Fengxian Biography") Yu Jian is a genius of the clan, if we catch him, then Xiao Feng will persecute us in the future, and we will all follow Yelu Seeing the same end, Yu might as well let him run.When the chasing soldiers returned, they told the emperor that Yeluyu ran away without being caught.

Yeluyu saw that such a famous general descended to Jin and made the Jin Dynasty even more powerful. He knew the situation in Liao Dynasty like the palm of his hand.Therefore, the gold master immediately appointed Yelu Yujian as the supervisor of the marshal's mansion, and asked him to lead the army to attack the Liao Kingdom.Hearing that Yelu Yujian led the troops to come, Xiao Fengxian said to the emperor: "Yujian is a descendant of the prince class, and he has no intention of perishing here. He wants to be the king of Jin. If the country is counted, he will not hesitate to punish him. , but retreat without a fight." ("The First Biography of Liao History Xiao Feng") Yelu Yujian is also the blood of Taizong Taizong, so he did not come here to destroy our Daliao.He just wants to make his nephew King Jin the emperor, and he wants to force you to be the Supreme Emperor, so at this time you want to kill your relatives righteously, as long as you kill King Jin and stop Yeluyu from seeing him, he will naturally retreat.Emperor Tianzuo was so confused that he actually listened to Xiao Fengxian's flattery, and really gave his own son King Jin to death.What he did was exactly the same as his befuddled grandfather Daozong.

At that time, the Liao Kingdom was eagerly looking forward to the early death of Emperor Tianzuo so that King Jin could succeed him.Unexpectedly, good people don't live long, and evil people live for thousands of years.Emperor Tianzuo did not die, King Jin was given to death, and the last thought of ZTE Daliao was gone.Therefore, when the king of Jin died, the history books said: "Everyone in China and foreign countries does not shed tears, and the hearts of the people disintegrate." I worked my ass off.Emperor Tianzuo didn't make any resistance, anyway, I would run away when the Jin army came, and I could be a master wherever I went.In this way, he fled all the way south, and the Jin army successively occupied Tokyo, Shangjing, and Zhongjing in the Liao Dynasty. Emperor Tianzuo fled to a place in Inner Mongolia today, which was called Jiashan at that time.Jiashan is isolated from outside news, and even the ministers of the Liao Kingdom don't know where the emperor fled, so the Jin Kingdom may not know it either, and it is relatively safe.To enter Jiashan, you have to go through a swamp for sixty miles. If no one leads the way, you will definitely fall into the mud.With this natural barrier, Emperor Tianzuo was completely at ease. He shot and hunted every day, and lived a leisurely life. Anyway, the people of Jin Kingdom would not be able to catch me, so I was safe.

What Emperor Tianzuo did made the Liao court see that "abolishing the faint emperor and establishing another enlightened ruler" is the only hope to save the country.Therefore, in Nanjing, which was not yet occupied at that time, the ministers supported Yeluchun, the king of Qin and Jin, as Emperor Tianxi, and demoted Emperor Tianzuo as King of Xiangyin. This was the Northern Liao Dynasty in history.By this time, the Liao Kingdom was divided into two. In the process of supporting Emperor Tianxi, there was a young talented Khitan and an outstanding minister who played a very important role. Who is this person?
