In front of Longmei Palace in the Western Lou Royal City, the Khitan Palace Nobles and a large number of tribal leaders were sitting in front of the felt tent, preparing to have a drink. According to the Khitan Nabo system, even if the felt chariots were used as camps and the hard villages were used as palaces, fishing and hunting activities were carried out, and when all the ministers were summoned to the banquet, they would still discuss state affairs.

The soldiers in charge of guarding the emperor's safety were guards around, and all the officials took turns to patrol the samurai. Some of them were also leading a few domesticated Far Eastern leopards. The leopards had short limbs, yellow fur, covered with black rings, and small, round heads looked back and forth. The pale yellow eyes could burst out with a shining cold light at night, and from time to time, deep roars were made, which also looked very fierce.

Some kids who like to tame eagles stood outside the banquet, wearing thick leather gloves, playing with the birds of prey in the sea. The birds of prey that were used for hunting, catching chickens and rabbits, were mainly born from the rulers when the Khitan annexed the entire Bohai Kingdom. The income collected by the mature Jurchen tribes was also very favored by the Khitan nobles.

At dusk, covered by the vast twilight, a large pot and a fire pit were set up between the felt tents on both sides of the Longmei Palace, and smoke rose up. The servants cut rabbit livers, mixed deer tongues, took meat sauce, stirred the animal legs and large pieces of meat in the cauldron, and made the meat... Of course, it was inevitable to roast the whole cattle and sheep into golden and shiny, emitting an attractive meat aroma.

According to Khitan custom, catching geese, ducks, geese, deer in April and May, tigers and leopards in August and September, and also hunting bears, wild boars, wild horses, foxes, rabbits... and wild leeks, sand onions, mountain onions, mountain garlic and other vegetable seasonings. The Khitans who grew up in the bitter and cold areas outside the border were generally addicted to alcohol. Naturally, a large number of servants held wine vessels full of wine, distributed them like flowing water to the Khitan ministers attending the banquet.

The one sitting upright was of course Yelu Abaoji, who created the Khitan Empire. He sat generously and had a great style. When he looked around, his tricks were shining brightly, and he did have the spirit of aura to swallow mountains and rivers and control all the heroes.

Since Yelu Abaoji destroyed the Bohai Kingdom, he called himself Emperor of Heaven, and appointed Shuluping as the Empress of Earth, and his eldest son Yelu Bei was the Emperor of Humanity... Now Yelu Bei is staying in the former capital of Bohai and is the lord of Dongdan Kingdom; his second son Yelu Deguang was appointed as the Grand Marshal of the World, and he fought against the border towns of the Wei Dynasty in the northern corner of Yanyun. Only the third son Yelu Lihu was present. Although he was only in his teens, he looked back and forth impatiently, shouting sternly to the servants around him, with arrogance on his face, and his eyebrows were filled with violence that was worthy of his age.

As for Yelu Abaoji's true wife Shu Luping, although she was a woman, she looked at the ministers at the banquet with a solemn expression, and her eyebrows showed a vicious aura, which was full of power without anger... Although looking at her facial features alone, her appearance was also correct, but the following Luping was like cold frost. It seemed that only when she was staring at Abaoji, her eyes would show admiration for the strong, but at other times she looked like she was cruel to others and to herself... Even the Khitan nobles present and the tribe leaders couldn't help but feel a little afraid of him...

After all, the mother of the Khitan country has always been known for her tough skills. Yelu Abaoji invited the other seven chiefs of the Khitan tribes who opposed him to proclaim him to have a banquet at the Diela tribe. However, while everyone was drunk, they ordered the ambush troops to slaughter all the guests and wipe out all the opposition forces of the Khitan tribe alliance... I heard that this poisonous plan was designed by Shuluping.

At first, Yelu Abaoji just picked up the gold-plated silver cup in his hand and frequently persuaded him to drink a lot. The ministers responded one after another and drank the wine in the cup. After three rounds of wine, when the children of the palace tent and the tribe leader who were at the banquet were drunk, Abaoji cleared his throat and said a long voice:

"The Wei people crossed the border to attack our Khitan soldiers, but did not take the border conflict seriously. They refused to return the captured generals and officials of our army to make unintentional explanations. You must have known this matter... It seems that the Emperor of Wei was very negligent and really did not take my Khitan seriously..."

After hearing this, the officials who were closer to Yelu Abaoji immediately noticed it and hurriedly signaled to their colleagues who were still drinking and talking... Gradually, the Khitan ministers present quieted down, and countless eyes also focused on Abaoji.

Yelu Abaoji looked around and spoke again, and there was a hint of anger between his eyebrows:

"Even though our Great Khitan conquered all tribes and dominated the northern part of the Mobei region, the territory under its jurisdiction reached Jinshan in the west, the Huaiyuan Prefecture of Bohai (later in the later years), the sea in the east, and the north of Yanyun Jibei in the south... The land with a vast territory was captured. Although we had diplomatic relations with the Wei State in the past, the emperor of the Central Plains was arrogant. In the words of the Han people, it seemed that there were still defenses between the barbarians and the Xia people, and they regarded us as the so-called barbarians and tatars...

At the beginning, we agreed to open a Haizhen in Jilizhou, which was under the former Anton Protectorate, to conduct a trade with each other. However, the Wei State was wary of our Khitan sending Han craftsmen to imitate the ship scale, and now it is even more forbidden to deal with the sea merchants. It seems that we have plans to fight with our Khitan... Humph! According to what the Han people often say, it is better to start first. Even if I endure the moment of my anger this time, the Wei people will despise our Khitan even more.

What's more, the Emperor of Wei was ambitious and had a high opinion of himself. It seemed that he wanted to unify the Central Plains. Now the Longmei Palace in Xilin where we are is also the territory under the jurisdiction of the governor's office under the Tang court of the previous dynasty. When he took advantage of the war between the Wei and Jin Dynasties and seized the states in Jibei, he had already had a dangerous conflict with the Wei army... Even if I had no intention of expedition in the south, I was afraid that the Emperor of Wei would have the intention of expedition in the north... "

After Yelu Abaoji said this, the Khitan ministers also realized that their emperor was ready to go to war with the Wei Dynasty... The reactions of the ministers present were different. Some people first thought of it was that Abaoji was also ambitious at that time. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the King of Beiping to invite him to enter the pass, he gathered 200,000 troops and marched south, but was defeated and returned by Li Cunxu, the Later Tang Dynasty who was fighting for hegemony with Emperor Li Tianqu. The territory he occupied was spit out with capital and profit...

What's more, when the Khitan was still in the tribal alliance system, he only faced Liu Wengong, the governor who occupied the Lulong army's vassal state. He often led his troops south, but often he couldn't get any advantage. He was once killed by the other party and became famous... Then, he was defeated by Li Cunxu, some of the Khitan generals present were indeed Han generals who served in the Later Tang Empire. He was rooted in the development and growth of Hedong Shatuo, which was developed and strengthened in Daibei, and brought psychological shadows to the psychological shadow...

Today's Wei Dynasty not only annexed the Nanyue of Yan and Yunnan, but also destroyed its old enemy who fought with it to dominate the world. It also destroyed the countries and expanded its territory. Its strength is undoubtedly much stronger than that of the Later Tang Dynasty. Compared with Liu Wengong, who was in Lulong Town back then, it was in the sky and underground... How likely would it be to go to war with such a big country?

However, there were still many founding generals of Khitan, like Yelu Abaoji. As the territory continued to expand, their spirit became higher and higher. So when they heard that their emperor was thinking about looking at the Central Plains, they couldn't help but be ready to try it out.

After all, the Khitan's national strength is far better than before. Even if he really wants to start a war with the Wei Dynasty, the difficulty is far from being completely annexed the Bohai Kingdom, or if he is idle to bully the Tai Feng Kingdom built by Wang Jian usurping the throne on the Korean Peninsula... But the greater the risk, the higher the reward. If the Wei Dynasty can really defeat the south and expand its territory, the broader and richer Central Plains will make the Khitan king and ministers who are now ambitioning will be more jealous!

However, the Wei Dynasty will be an unprecedented powerful enemy, and the full war will be a great thing after all... The Khitan ministers present looked at each other and were discussing each other, Yelu Abaoji's third son Yelu Lihu couldn't hold back his anger... His face became even more ferocious due to anger, and he immediately shouted:

"It's so hateful! Wei State dares to underestimate my Khitan? I regard my race as barbarians and Tartars? I don't see how many Han people have to crawl at the feet of my Khitan to be a cow, a horse, a slave, and a servant! Even if the war starts, what's wrong? I use the blood of the Han people to sacrifice flags to my Khitan army! I swallow the Southern Dynasty and take away all the wealth of the Han people in Wei State!

Since there are many Han slaves under my Khitan rule, when it comes to the battle, if Wei State hurts my Khitan's life, we will give it back twice as much and kill ten Han dogs!"
