"Your Majesty, you are talking nonsense!"
Yang Guizhi's voice sounded again, already revealing panic.
"Queen Mother, do you want to make the same mistake again and again, regardless of the overall situation of the world? Do you want the late emperor to die in peace?"
Wei Liaoweng suppressed his anger and replied.
Is this old woman who is over sixty years old crazy for the sake of her own face and a little bit of power?
"Queen Mother, just give up when you see fit, and don't let the world laugh at you again."
Xue Ji spoke sincerely and bowed in the direction of Yang Guizhi.
"Your Majesty, the matter has come to an end, so don't say any more, so as not to make the world laugh!"
Chen Duanchang said loudly and bowed.
He took the lead in correcting the imperial edict and opposed the crown prince's ascension to the throne. What was the purpose of what she did?
Wouldn't it be better to be your own queen mother and honor the world?
This is great, he has become the laughing stock of the world, so why bother?
Having lost face in front of the entire palace, it is no wonder that Yang Guizhi refused to repent.
"Reporting to His Highness the Crown Prince, Jiang Wanzai, the environmental officer, came to report. Liu Ningguo, Xu Henian, and Fang Du, the three generals who were guarding the palace gates outside the palace, asked for orders outside the palace. They are willing to suppress the rebellion and support His Highness the Crown Prince to ascend the throne!"
Guard Wang Ying entered the palace to report. Zhao Hong nodded slightly with admiration in his eyes.
"Wang Ying, guard the palace gate and let Jiang Wanzai guard the inner court. Tell the soldiers that the overall situation here has been decided. Let the soldiers guard the palace gate and you will be rewarded."
Obviously not all of the people guarding the outer dynasty were Shi Miyuan's confidants. Even Shi Miyuan's bastard would not risk his life at this time.
This Jiang Wanzai must have played a role.
Wang Ying left, and Xu Sheng and the guards dragged the bloody corpse out. The whole palace was shocked again.
It seemed that His Highness the Crown Prince had already prepared, and everyone just watched a good show in vain.
"Feng Yuhou, please lead two squads of forbidden troops to quickly arrest Zheng Qingzhi, Zheng Shichang and his son, and the sycophant Yu Tianci into the palace!"
Zhen Dexiu shouted loudly and made arrangements immediately.
Feng Shu turned his eyes to Zhao Hong, who nodded slightly.
"General Feng, you have made outstanding contributions, and I am deeply grateful to you. At this time of turmoil between the government and the public, General should continue to work hard to quell the disaster as soon as possible and bring peace to the world."
Publicly, we can only call him "General Feng" instead of "Shuai Feng".
"Your Majesty, I obey your decree!"
Feng Shu clasped his fists and saluted, said "Your Majesty" again, and strode out with several Forbidden Army generals.
This is the time to perform well and you can’t miss it again.
"Prince, please spare your life! Due to the situation, we brothers have no choice. Shi Miyuan forced me!"
Yang Guizhi's nephew Yang Gu knelt on the ground, kowtowing regardless of the blood and bruises on his face.
"His Royal Highness, Shi Miyuan's power is overwhelming. If we don't agree, no one in the Yang family will be able to survive! This matter was all done by Shi Miyuan and has nothing to do with us. Please tell us, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
Another nephew, Yang Shi, also kowtowed and fell to the ground.
At this time, life was at stake. He might be killed on the spot, so it was more important to save his life.
"You two, I believe that you were coerced by traitors, including the Queen Mother, who could not help it. Get up, I don't blame you, I will restore your innocence. You, please also advise the Queen Mother. As a family, why is this necessary? ?”
Zhao Hong looked kindly and helped Yang Gu and Yang Shi, including Zhao Guicheng, up, as if the conflict just now had never happened.
Wei Liaoweng looked at Zhao Hong in surprise. He was still worried about how Zhao Hong would deal with the aftermath and deal with Yang Guizhi. Unexpectedly, Zhao Hong had already made a decision.
"Queen Mother, the overall situation has been decided, don't worry. Prince... His Majesty will take care of everything!"
Yang Shi was cowardly but also tactful, so he quickly reported to Yang Guizhi loudly.
"Auntie, His Highness the Crown Prince has ascended the throne, and the world is at peace. You don't have to worry!"
Yang Gu followed, with a painful expression, as if he had a wound.
While the ministers were astonished, Zhao Hong had already bowed solemnly to the throne.
"The Queen Mother, I know that this is what Shi Miyuan did. The Queen Mother was coerced by Shi Miyuan and had no choice but to do it. The two Yang Clan heroes are also victims and have no intention of rebellion. After I ascend the throne, I will do my best to fulfill my filial piety. Be filial to the Queen Mother and treat the Yang family well, and the sky will shine brightly, as evidenced by all the officials in the palace!"
Zhao Hong bowed his head to the ground, extremely humble.
The Song Dynasty governed the country with filial piety. Without Yang Guizhi, it would be difficult for later officials to live in peace. At this time, it is fundamental to stabilize the court.
Even if he knew that this woman was an accomplice, he could only swallow his anger and make things worse.
"Congratulations to the Queen Mother and her son for their harmony and peace in the world!"
Zhen Dexiu was shocked by Zhao Hong's performance. He reacted and shouted loudly, bowing in awe.
This Zhao Hong's ability to bend and stretch, and to assess the situation was beyond his expectation.
"Congratulations to the Queen Mother! Congratulations to the Queen Mother!"
Xue Ji then spoke and bowed solemnly.
"Congratulations to the Queen Mother on the harmony between mother and son, and peace in the world! Congratulations to the Queen Mother!"
All the ministers in the palace spoke one after another and saluted together.
At this time, the only way is to follow the true "officials" and serve as ministers honestly.
Everyone worshiped, and there was silence for a while from behind the curtain. After a while, Yang Guizhi came out, with a haggard face, and his deep voice sounded again.
"Since you are truly virtuous and obedient in urgent matters, you, the Minister of Rites, will read out the late emperor's edict and establish His Royal Highness as the Emperor of the Song Dynasty and succeed him to the throne."
It seems that Yang Guizhi has accepted the ending in front of him.
"Thank you, Queen Mother! I obey your order!"
Zhen Dexiu said in a trembling voice and bowed respectfully.
"Thank you Queen Mother!"
Zhao Hong's heart palpitated and he bowed.
If you become the Dabao, there won't be any more accidents, right?
He overestimated Shi Miyuan, and Shi Miyuan underestimated him. A conspiracy to depose the palace turned out to be much easier than imagined.
Although, there will also be violence and killing.
"The Queen Mother is wise!"
All the ministers in the palace spoke in unison, not knowing whether it was true or false.
"The Queen..."
Shi Miyuan's mouth was bleeding, and he struggled to speak, but was kicked hard by Li Tang next to him. His mouth was bleeding, and he couldn't hold his breath for a long time.
"Crown Prince Zhao Hong and change the court uniforms!"
Yang Guizhi's voice sounded again, exhausted and in a hurry.
Zhao Hong took off his mourning clothes in the main hall, changed his clothes and was crowned.
Of course, he also removed the round grenades hidden in his clothes.
"Your Highness, no, Your Majesty, you are..."
Zhen Dexiu, Xue Ji and others looked at the round grenades with fear.
Liang Chengda, in particular, hid in the crowd and looked around. When he saw the grenade on Zhao Hong, he quietly retracted his head.
"My lords, don't worry. This is a firearm. You can kill people by lighting it. Gu can't do anything about it. If the big thing fails, Gu can only bleed for five steps and follow the late emperor to the west of Hexi along with the late emperor's edict."
All the ministers felt chills in their hearts, and the muscles on Yang Guizhi's face were trembling. It was not until Li Tang left with the grenade that everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the incident didn't turn into a big deal, otherwise the scene would have been filled with blood, which would have been shocking.
This Zhao Hong is a proper outlaw!
I'm afraid he is also the most difficult and thrilling person to succeed to the throne among all the princes in the Song Dynasty.
"The imperial edict says that there is a fixed time for mending shortcomings, and there is a certain number for life and death. The saints are wise and there is no escape from ancient times. My body is weak and my heirs are in trouble. I have suffered from it. Now I am sick from overwork. On my deathbed, I would like to think of the prince Zhao Hong. , literary and military skills, honest nature, thrifty, benevolent and filial, I deeply comfort him. I obey the will of God, Zhao Hong succeeds to the throne, succeeds me to the throne, and succeeds to the throne of the emperor. Lai and generals work together, China and foreign countries are of the same mind, and we are the emperor, Yongguang Pi deception. Announce it to the world, and the envoys will hear about it..."
The voice of Zhen Dexiu, the Minister of Rites, echoed in the hall, and all the ministers knelt down and cried together, exactly as they did when they knelt down before Zhao Guicheng.
"Father, your spirit in heaven, bless the Song Dynasty to have good weather and good weather, and the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Bless our country, the Song Dynasty, to be rich and powerful, and the country to be prosperous! Bless your sons and ministers to lead my subjects of the Song Dynasty, to reproduce the majesty of the Han and Tang Dynasties, to bring submission to all foreign countries, and to have all nations come to court! "
Zhao Hong kowtowed and cried bitterly.
He actually wanted to repeat "Suddenly it was reported that there was a tiger in the world, and tears flew down like a downpour", but he no longer had the same state of mind as before.
After all the hard work, he was already exhausted mentally and physically, and no longer had the physical strength.
"The officials are tired, so they will go back first. The late emperor's mourning and mausoleum arrangements will be left to the officials."
Yang Guizhi stood up straight and faced the standing ministers, still expressionless.
"My dear friends, the new king has ascended the throne. You must assist the new king and fulfill your duties so that the country of the Song Dynasty can be consolidated forever."
"My dearest congratulations to the Queen Mother!"
Zhao Hong stood up and bowed respectfully.
"I respectfully send you off to the Queen Mother!"
The ministers and Zhao Hong respectfully watched Yang Guizhi leave.
Yang Guizhi passed by Zhao Hong and glanced at the blood on the ground. Suddenly her steps faltered and she almost fell.
Zhao Hong, with quick eyes and quick hands, quickly stepped forward and supported Yang Guizhi.
"Zhao Hong, you are so scheming!"
Yang Guizhi grabbed Zhao Hong's arm and whispered.
"Queen Mother, there is no way to retreat, you have to do it!"
Zhao Hong replied in a low voice, with the same expression.
Yang Guizhi smiled bitterly, then turned expressionless and raised her voice.
"The official family and the country of the Song Dynasty will be left to you!"
Xue Ji, Zhen Dexiu and others around him heard it clearly.
This strong and stubborn woman finally had no choice but to accept Zhao Hong and accept the reality.
"Don't worry, Queen Mother. What I want is to strengthen the country, enrich the people, and make the country peaceful and peaceful. In the future, I will ask the Queen Mother to give advice and leave a lasting legacy for future generations."
Zhao Hong's voice was loud, and all the officials in the palace heard it clearly.
"Yang Gu, Yang Shi, the officials are kind and tolerant. You must not slack off in helping the officials handle the affairs of the late Emperor Yan Jia."
"Queen Mother Yang" consciously or unconsciously warned her nephew.
"Don't worry, Queen Mother! I will definitely share the worries of the officials!"
Yang Gu and Yang Shi worshiped together, respectfully.
"Guan family, I'm resigning."
Yang Guizhi stood up straight and left with the help of the palace maid, without even looking at Shi Miyuan and others who were lying on the ground in a miserable state.
"Don't worry, Queen Mother!"
Zhao Hong bowed, looked at her back, and shook his head secretly.
What a vicious, smart, flexible woman!
"Your Majesty respectfully invites you to move to the Daqing Hall to meet the new emperor!"
Yang Guizhi left, and Zhen Dexiu shouted loudly.
This time, Zhao Hong, the emperor, was the real deal and sat firmly on the throne.
"Long live your majesty!"
In the Daqing Hall, Zhao Hong sat on the dragon chair and accepted the congratulations of the officials.
"All the ministers, I and Yi Wang Zhao Guicheng are both descendants of Taizu. I intend to make him the third division of Yitong in the Kaifu, advance him to be the king of Ji, judge Ningguo, and give him a house. This is my first order. What do you think of the decree?"
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
The ministers were full of compliments again.
The arrangements for the new emperor in the "Jiaozhao" were followed the same pattern and all returned to Zhao Guicheng.
"I thank your Majesty for your grace! Long live your Majesty! Long live your Majesty!"
Zhao Guicheng knelt on the ground, shocked, with tears on his face, not knowing whether they were true or false.
"Shi Miyuan corrected the imperial edict and conspired to rebel. He could not escape the blame. He was beheaded according to the law. He ordered Zhendexiu to be executed, and many soldiers were sent to protect him. The other two sons were removed from their official positions and demoted to common people, with no family property in the Shifu. The remaining two sons were Zheng Qingzhi and Zheng Shichang. , Yu Tianci, Cheng Ju and others will be beheaded in accordance with the law, their property will be confiscated, and the whole family will be demoted to common people. Do not implicate the innocent family. This is my second decree."
"Your Majesty is kind and kind, and I respect you all!"
The ministers congratulated again.
The nine clans were not implicated, and there was no execution by Ling Chi. The new emperor was still a benevolent and righteous king.
"My third decree is that the country is weak and its military equipment is slack. It is the right time to hire people. I will go to the ministers, the six ministries and the nine ministers, and all the state governments to recommend virtuous people to share the country's worries. If there are really virtuous people, I will have my own rewards. . If it’s just a fish out of sight…”
Zhao Hong's words made all the ministers bow in awe again.
There are countless talented people in the world, but there are hundreds of thousands who have no way to serve the country. Recommending talented people can just spread kindness and win people's hearts.
"This fourth decree of mine is for the funeral of the late emperor, and it is also the top priority. I appoint the ruling minister Xue Ji as the envoy of the Five Tombs, and the ministers Xuanzhen, Hu Ju, Zhen Dexiu, and Wei Liaoweng as the five envoys of the Shanling. Responsible for the funeral of the late emperor, discussing posthumous titles, and sending envoys to various countries to express condolences."
"I will obey His Majesty's will!"
All the ministers saluted together and showed great respect.
Xue Ji, Hu Ju, and Xuan Zhen, who were involved in political affairs, including those who were vacillating, all felt at ease.
It seems that the new Emperor of the Song Dynasty is not very involved. Although he is rough, he is kind.
The ministers bowed down and worshiped, the mountains shouted long live, the morning light was dim and warm and dazzling. The Ninth Five Supreme Being, sitting on the throne, the majestic Zhao Hong couldn't help but feel in a trance.
The ministers are at his feet, and the earth is under his feet. He seems to be at the top and can control everything in the world. But how should he continue on the path under his feet? Where will the future of the Song Dynasty lead?
Can the poor and weak Song Dynasty rise?
Can the Song Dynasty, which was militarily weak, contend with the huge and indestructible Mongol Empire?
