Wan Yanchang's Jurchen soldiers killed Xiao Fengxian's eldest son Xiao Ang, and brought Xiao Fengxian and his second son Xiao Yu to Wanyanchang's horse.

Xiao Fengxian, who was greedy for life and afraid of death, immediately surrendered to Wan Yanchang, expressing his willingness to be a courtier of the Kingdom of Jin.

Wan Yanchang wanted to continue chasing Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi, so he sent some soldiers to escort Xiao Fengxian and his son back to the rear camp.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Fengxian and his son were destined to die. They met a group of Liao soldiers on the way.

These Liao soldiers recaptured Xiao Fengxian and his son and sent them back to the team of Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi.

In order to boost the morale of the army, Emperor Tianzuo Yelu Yanxi bestowed their father and son to death, and then led the army to flee into Jiashan.

The news that the Jin army won a big victory on the Xijing Road in the Liao Kingdom and took the Datong Mansion in Xijing lightly spread back to the Jin Kingdom.

Therefore, when Ximenqing and Wanyan Poluhuo were having a banquet, Wanyan Poluhuo informed Ximenqing of the military situation of the Jin army breaking through the Datong Mansion in Xijing, revealing that he wanted to go to the Nanjing Road of the Liao Kingdom to fight and make meritorious service idea.

Although Ximenqing did not get the detailed battle history of the Jin and Liao armies from Wanyan Polu Huokou, he only knew that both Zhongjing Dading Mansion and Xijing Datong Mansion fell into the hands of the Jin army.But he knew in his heart that after the Jin army invaded the Xijing Road in the Liao Kingdom, Song Huizong's bird man must not be able to sit still.

Song Jun is finally going to perform!

Chapter 777 My son-in-law only wants to be in a remote place

When Ximenqing stayed in Taizhou City, he got the news from Wanyanpo Luhuo that the Jin army was chasing and killing Emperor Tianzuo and conquering Datong Mansion in Xijing.

Thinking that Song Huizong was going to jump out to pick peaches, and Tong Taiwei was going to lead his troops north to patrol the border, Ximenqing decided to return to Yanggu County as soon as possible, and pay attention to the next big drama.

Early the next morning, Ximenqing bid farewell to Wanyan Po Luhuo, crossed the Songwa River, and returned to Huining City on the bank of the Hushui River.

The confidantes sent by Jiao Ting come and go like flying. During the few days of delay in Ximenqing, they have brought back the jade vein distribution map and Letter to Ximen Qing.

As soon as Ximen Qing joined Ningcheng, before setting up camp, his subordinates handed Yan Qing's letters and drawings to Ximen Qing.

Relying on the guidance of Ximenqing's past life memory, Yan Qing and Shi Yong took jade mining craftsmen to search for several streams in the northwest of Daning Town. Sure enough, high-quality water-milled jade was found in the streams.

This shows that there are indeed jade veins in the mountains northwest of Daning Town.

However, the water mill jade in the stream is easy to find, and the mine veins in the mountains need more time to investigate.

Yan Qing told Ximen Qing in the letter that the craftsmen under him were all conquered by Ximen Qing's prophetic prophet, and regarded him as a living god.

Shi Yong and Yan Qing are leading people to continue to search for and survey the jade veins. For the time being, they have drawn a rough sketch for Ximen Qing's distribution.

Ximen Qing got the sketch, read it carefully several times, and remembered it in his heart.

After confirming the distribution area of ​​the jade veins, Ximenqing can go to the emperor Wanyan Aguda to ask for land.

Upon hearing the news of Ximen Qing's return, Emperor Wanyan Aguda received Ximen Qing in the Emperor's Village.

Hearing that Ximen Qing had arrived, Fan Bo was extremely fierce and Wan Yan Wu Qimai also came to Emperor's Village to accompany him.

Because Wanyan Po Luhuo had sent people back to the capital ahead of time to inform Wanyan Aguda of the feats that Ximenqing had built on the grassland, so Wanyan Wu was alarmed when he was begging for money, and came to join his elder brother Wanyan Aguda Grandly welcome this son-in-law Ximen Qing who has made great contributions.

Ximenqing sent himself north to the grassland, how did he contact and make friends with the various ministries, and how did he persuade the leader of the Mongolian tribe, Bor Jijin, with his three-inch tongue? Make friends with Jin Guo.

Ximenqing told Wanyan Aguda and Wanyan Wu Qimai that in order to let the Mongolian Ministry express its sincerity to the Jin State and weaken the strength of the Liao State in the Mobei Grassland, he was the leader of the Mongolian Ministry, Borji Jin? Tun It must be a plan to wipe out the Shangjing of the Liao Kingdom and stay behind. Xiao Yixue and his [-] elite soldiers were all commanded by the Northeast Road.

After this battle, the Mongolian tribes and the Khitans of the Liao Kingdom hated each other and were in a state of endless death. There was no longer any need to worry about the Mongols fighting for the Liao army.

"Hahaha~ Ximen Qing, you really are a hero, you can be an army by yourself! Brother Huang found a son-in-law like you, it is really a great fortune for me! Ximen Qing, today, Wu Qimai is right for you! The Song people are convinced!"

Wanyan Wu Qimai, who had always been tough and didn't have much affection for Song people, had to admit that Ximenqing's trip to the north had achieved fruitful diplomatic results, which was worth tens of thousands of troops.

In the west, there is Wanyan Zonghan, the god of war who is advancing rapidly, and in the north, there is Ximen Qing, a strategist who kills with a knife.

Both Wanyan Aguda and Wanyan Wu Qimai praised Ximen Qing's achievements, and Wanyan Aguda wanted to reward Ximen Qing heavily.

However, Ximenqing didn't want an official position, nor did he want rewards of gold, silver and jewels. He just proposed to Emperor Wanyan Aguda that he wanted to expand the territory of Posulu.

Ximenqing hoped that Emperor Wanyan Aguda would assign the area of ​​Daning Town, Jian'an County, Hosuguan Road, which is connected to his Posu Road territory in the east, to his Feixiong Ximen Department, and he would control the special products produced in the mountains and forests.

After hearing this, Wanyan Aguda and Wanyan Wu Qimai looked at each other, and admired the son-in-law Ximenqing even more.

This son-in-law has made great contributions. If he wants land, Jin Kingdom has no shortage of fertile plains, which can be carefully selected by Ximen Qing.

However, the son-in-law doesn't want fertile land, nor good pastures, but only a piece of land in the mountains and forests in the backcountry.

It should be noted that Daning Town in Jian'an County is located in the eastern mountainous area of ​​Jian'an County, and there are few people there. When the Bohai Kingdom was destroyed by the Khitans, the people there fled to escape disaster.

Those refugees hid in the deep mountains to live a difficult life, and they settled down here. So far, there are no more than a hundred households.

What's the use of consort Ximen Qing going to such a barren land?At most, they can go hunting in the mountains in summer and harvest some mountain products.

The only advantage there is that it borders on the current territory of son-in-law Ximen Qing!

Wanyan Aguda and Wanyan Wu Qimai thought to themselves that Ximenqing was a little more sincere in the matter of asking for the fief.

Since Ximen Qing insisted on the remote mountains, Wanyan Aguda no longer insisted, and with a wave of his hand, he rewarded Ximen Qing with all the land in Daning Town, Jian'an County.

The jurisdiction of the hundred and ten families in Daning Town also belonged to Ximenqing's name.

After Ximenqing got what he wanted, he immediately bid farewell to his father-in-law Wanyan Agu, expressing that he would return to Posu Road as soon as possible to reunite with Wanyan Ulu.

Immediately afterwards, Ximenqing was going back to the Song Dynasty to sell grain to the Liaodong area.

Now is the time of war, and food is the most scarce material in the Kingdom of Jin.

Ximenqing took the initiative to take on this responsibility, which made the emperor Wanyan Aguda and Wanban Bo Jilie Wanyan Wu Qimai extremely satisfied.

Although Ximen Qing is doing business to make money, but at present he is the only one who has the ability to transport a large amount of grain to the Kingdom of Jin to solve the food problem within the Kingdom of Jin.

Wanyan Aguda and the others were not afraid that Ximenqing would make money, but that they would have no place to buy food with the money.

The reason for Ximen Qing's departure was very good, and the father-in-law Wanyan Aguda didn't keep him for a few more days, but sent him out of the Emperor's Village.

When parting, Wanyan Aguda suddenly asked Ximen Qing again: "My son-in-law, you really don't want to be an official in our Dajin Kingdom? If you want, I can appoint you as the governor of Posulu, and let you rule over the entire Posu Road." Sulu. You can come to Huining City to serve as an official by my side."

Ximen Qing thanked him after hearing the words: "My father expressed his kindness, and my son-in-law accepted it. It's just that my son-in-law's ambition is to be a big businessman in the Jin and Song Dynasties."

Hey~ I don't want to be a "traitor", so I can only reluctantly resign.Ximen Qing sighed softly.

Wanyan Aguda also sighed, glanced at Ximen Qing, and told him: "My son-in-law, you have to take good care of Wulu."

"Your son-in-law will save you, and he will never let Wulu suffer any grievances. Please rest assured, father."

Ximen Qing swore to the sky and replied.

After watching Ximen Qing ride away on horseback, Wanyan Aguda stood on a high place and muttered to himself, "My son-in-law, isn't my Kingdom of Jin not big enough? Where do you want to gallop?"
