In the Chongzheng Hall, when the official Zhao Ji was forcing the throne into Zhao Kai's hands, his prince Zhao Huan was following He Guan's son He Ji excitedly into the Donghua Gate.
At this time, there were no Sanyamen soldiers blocking the door outside Donghua Gate, but He Ji and Zhao Huan didn't think much about it, thinking that the overall situation was decided, so the two princes asked the Sanyamen soldiers to withdraw. After all, at Donghua Gate It doesn't look good to have so many infantry troops on the outside, and it can easily remind people of palace changes.
And the several imperial city ministers and officials who guarded Donghua Gate were also wonderful people. Seeing the prince coming with He Ji, he neither refused to let them in nor arrested them, but welcomed them into the palace as usual. If Zhao Kai succeeded, these old fritters would say that they were liars. The prince enters the palace! If Zhao Kai fails, then they will know nothing...
So Zhao Huan and He Guan, as well as several Xiao Huangmen around the prince, as well as the prince's teacher Geng Nanzhong and others, happily entered the Donghua Gate, and then hurried to Chongzheng Hall.
This Zhao Huan is only one year older than Zhao Kai, but he looks much older, as if he is thirty years old, and he is a little weak. He walks a little faster and is out of breath.
Although Zhao Huan's teacher Geng Nanzhong is over sixty years old, with snow-white beard and hair, his physical strength is better than that of Zhao Huan. In addition, he is celebrating a happy occasion, so he is full of energy, walks fast, and exhorts his good students as he walks.
"Your Highness, when you receive the order later, you must remember to decline three times. This is called three bows and three concessions. It shows that you are humble and virtuous..."
Zhao Huan tried his best to hold back his smile, nodded repeatedly and said: "I know, I know, I know the rules. I will pretend to be dizzy later and pass out from crying. Please, sir, find someone to carry me to the throne."
"That's how it should be!" Geng Nanzhong said again, "Your Highness, this time you can ascend the throne ahead of schedule, all thanks to Wu Min and Li Gang. After you ascend the throne, you must show something. Wu Min is already a minister, so if you mention it again As soon as I mention it, I will be the Young Prime Minister (Right Prime Minister). Li Gang is now the Taichang Young Minister, you can reward him with a Deputy Prime Minister."
"Just what Mr. Wang said." Zhao Huan nodded and asked, "I heard that Li Gang knows military strategy. Is he safe in Tokyo?"
Geng Nanzhong said with a smile: "Li Boji is a scholar. How much does he know about military strategy? He is just a strong man and can control the generals below. If you really want to defend Tokyo, you can let him supervise the army, but don't expect too much."
When the teacher said the words "guard Tokyo", most of the joy on Zhao Huan's face disappeared, his brows gradually frowned, and he whispered: "How about letting him be the guard in Tokyo?"
The idea of letting Li Gang stay in Tokyo meant that Zhao Huan, the next official of the Song Dynasty, was also planning to run away!
"Your Highness," Geng Nanzhong certainly understood Zhao Huan's thoughts and knew that he was a coward, so he lowered his voice, "This matter is out of control. Emperor Daojun must be allowed to leave first, and then arrangements can be made. Otherwise, Emperor Daojun will still be powerful. Now, maybe..."
Zhao Huan whispered: "I know, I know..."
The teacher and student discussed and hurried on, without looking ahead, and just followed the two small yellow doors that led the way. Suddenly, the two Xiaohuangmen who were leading the way stopped for some reason, and then Zhao Huan, who was following behind, failed to stop and almost hit the back of the Xiaohuangmen.
Zhao Huan was a little angry. He was about to scold him, but when he looked up, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. It turns out that he has now walked into the courtyard outside Chongzheng Hall, and inside the courtyard, around Chongzheng Hall, there are crowds of fully armed pro-conservants (soldiers commanded by pro-commanders are called pro-commanders) and Sanya soldiers!
Six to seven hundred soldiers will surround the Chongzheng Hall... This posture looks a bit like a coup!
These people also noticed that Zhao Huan and the others were coming. They all stared at the Crown Prince blankly, and they were at a loss for the moment.
This "Donghuamen Incident" happened in a hurry, without careful planning at all. Even the instigator, Zhao Kai, was not completely clear-headed due to the "sequelae of time travel". So Zhao Kai didn't think of arresting or killing the prince Zhao Huan. If Zhao Huan hadn't thrown himself into the trap, I really don't know what would have happened next?
At this time, leading the troops outside Chongzheng Hall were Wang Xiaode of the Imperial City Division and He Guan's second son He Moss. Like everyone else, they had long forgotten about Prince Zhao Huan. Now I suddenly saw Zhao Huan appear, and I didn’t know what to do for a moment?
So the two groups just looked at each other, all motionless. The scene was really weird.
However, this strange atmosphere did not last long, and was broken by He Guan's eldest son, He Ji. He saw his brother and Zhao Kai's confidant Wang Xiaode, the official of Huangcheng Company, together, and they seemed to be very affectionate. So he asked loudly: "He Erlang, how did you lead the troops into the imperial city? Where is my lord?"
He Guan's second son, He Moss, was also a big talker. When he heard his brother's question, he answered truthfully: "Da Lang, your Excellency is in the Chongzheng Hall with His Royal Highness King Yun. He is persuading the officials to take back their orders, not to meditate, and to be a good person." official family."
What? Don't do inner Zen... After hearing this, Zhao Huan's eyes were filled with stars, and his mind went blank. His teacher Geng Nanzhong immediately shouted: "How dare you, a martial artist, collude with the prince to stop the inner Zen? Do you want to rebel?"
Wang Xiaode came to his senses at this time and shouted: "Master Geng, don't talk nonsense. Since ancient times, those who force the emperor to abdicate are traitors, and those who keep the emperor secure in his throne must be loyal ministers!"
What he said is absolutely correct! Those who force the emperor to abdicate, persuade the emperor to abdicate, trick the emperor into abdicating... or use other methods to pull the emperor from his position must be treacherous officials and traitors!
Even though Geng Nazhong is as knowledgeable as he is, I don’t know how to explain it. He seems to be a traitor!
At this time, Zhao Huan was still anxious and wise. He opened his throat and shouted into Chongzheng Hall: "I am also here to persuade my father to secure his position... I am a filial son, and I want to see my father! Father!" Your Majesty, your son, Zhao Huan, is asking to see you! My son, Kenken, asks your father to take back his life. My son is still young and cannot be an official..."
Zhao Huan's shouts entered the Chongzheng Hall, which opened the door. At this time, Zhao Kai, another pure and filial son of the Song Dynasty, was persuading Zhao Ji to take back his life - because just now, Zhao Ji had already Announced that he would pass the throne to him!
Faced with such a good thing, Zhao Kai, a pure and filial son, of course firmly refused!
Although his mind was still a little dizzy, he also knew that Zhao Ji, a coward, would not hand over the throne unconditionally.
If Zhao Kai wants to take over, he must let Zhao Ji run to the southeast... Zhao Ji was reminded by Zhao Kai that he will definitely hold the throne to the end and hand it over to Zhao Kai when he leaves Tokyo. By then it will be impossible for Zhao Kai to stop Zhao Ji from leaving!
Once Zhao Kai takes over the offer, he will be trapped in Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo, surrounded by a group of cowardly civil servants, and there are not many troops on hand to fight. He cannot be regarded as Li Shimin at all, and he may only be able to become Chongzhen, the emperor who died in the country. .
Moreover, Zhao Kai is not Zhao Huan. The latter is a legitimate prince, while Zhao Kai is just a prince who covets the throne. If Zhao Kai suddenly squeezed out Zhao Huan and accepted Zhao Ji's inner Zen and became the new official of the Song Dynasty, he would probably be regarded as a traitor and traitor who usurped the throne and seized the country. It is hard to say whether the soldiers of the Qin King in the world would come to rescue him.
In addition, Zhao Kai had his own strategy for resisting the Jin Dynasty. That is to "force my father to resist the Jin", "go north to resist the Jin" and "long-lasting resistance to the Jin" instead of staying in Kaifeng Prefecture, Tokyo and being the emperor in the palace who can't easily run away.
So at this time, in the Chongzheng Hall, there was a scene that made the civil and military officials of the Song Dynasty dumbfounded - the official throne was pushed back and forth by a father and son, like a hot potato!
Just when the two fathers and sons were busy performing the drama of a loving father and a filial son relinquishing the throne, the prince Zhao Huan entered the Chongzheng Hall crying, and his position was actually the same as Zhao Kai - he was determined not to be worthy of the millions of people of the Song Dynasty. official family!
There is no one who wants to be an official in the Song Dynasty. What should we do?
