Things are really bad!
Because it’s not just Tong Guan who’s here!
There are also Lu Yihao who stayed in Xiangzhou and Liu Kai who stayed in Taiyuan!
If there was no big deal, how could these two civil servants who were guarding one side for Zhao Kai leave their duties and come to the front line of Daizhou?
And the big thing... must be to ascend the throne and become the emperor!
It must have been the gold thieves who breached the ten thousand-year-old embankment and caused the Yellow River to flood Kaifeng Mansion, drowning the two unlucky men Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan.
Zhao Kai thought: In this way, I am the most qualified person to inherit the throne of the Song Dynasty... It seems that I have to wear mourning to ascend the throne!
While Zhao Kai was thinking about how to ascend the throne, Tong Guan, Lu Yihao, and Liu Kai had already arrived in front of Zhao Kai.
Zhao Kai found that the expressions of these three people were extremely frightened... This acting skill is really good!
Thinking of this, Zhao Kai quickly thought about the millions of common people in Kaifeng Prefecture who were drowned by the flood. His heart suddenly filled with grief and anger, and the expression on his face looked a bit like a dead father and a dead brother.
When Tong Guan and others arrived in front of Zhao Kai, they did not dismount and salute. Instead, Tong Guan spoke to Zhao Kai: "Your Majesty, please take a step to speak!"
Then Tong Guan raised his hand and pointed to a small forest nearby.
Zhao Kai understands...it should be kept secret and not mourned!
Now that he is leading troops to attack Yanmen, he cannot let the people below know that the two scourges Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan are gone... They don't know how destructive these two people were to the Song Dynasty!
Thinking of this, Zhao Kai quickly put away his sad expression and said to Guo Tiannu who was following him: "Goddess, go and bring Liangchen, Pengju, Wuji, Kezhi, Uncle Xin, Shaoyan, Boying, Jingang and the He family Brothers are all called to that grove!”
"Here!"
Guo Tiannu responded, immediately took a bag of arrows from Zhao Kai, and then summoned a group of messengers to convey Zhao Kai's order to them.
Zhao Kai himself, together with Chen Ji, led a few soldiers and followed Tong Guan, Lu Yihao, and Liu Kai, who were tired of the journey, and drove their horses into the woods.
As soon as he entered the woods, before Zhao Kai got off the horse, he heard Tong Guan crying loudly: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...The official family is gone! The official family has died!"
Zhao Kai sighed and said to himself: It would be better to drown than to die after being exposed to the northeast wind for more than ten years in the Five Kingdoms Department!
Tong Guan then cried out: "The Guan family died in the battle... The Guan family led more than a thousand cavalry to confront the gold thieves on the north bank of the Wuzhang River. As a result, they were besieged by gold thieves several times their size. After a bloody battle all night, In the end, he was hit by dozens of arrows and collapsed!"
What? Is this talking about Song Huizong? How could Song Huizong be so cowardly as to take the lead and lead the cavalry to fight against the gold thieves? Did he drink too much and passed out?
wrong! Could it be that Song Huizong’s soul also changed? This is still a group dress! Any more?
Zhao Kai was shocked by his thoughts and almost fell off his horse. It was Lu Yihao who was smart and came to Zhao Kai early. He helped him up and stopped the mad king from falling.
"Then, what about the eldest brother of the Gu family?" Zhao Kai came back to his senses and asked hurriedly, "Did he also... die of fighting?"
Tong Guan sighed when he heard this and said in his heart: You are thinking of good things!
"His Royal Highness the Prince did not go into battle to kill the thieves..." Tong Guan said, "At that time, he stayed in Kaifeng City."
"Kaifeng Mansion," Zhao Kai remembered, "Was Kaifeng Mansion flooded? Did my eldest brother fall into the water and die!"
Still thinking about good things!
"No!" Tong Guan shook his head, "Kaifeng Mansion was not flooded at all, and the golden thief did not break open the new dike that has been built for thousands of years. The golden thief just shouted 'the flood is coming' while launching a fierce attack, so it caused Misunderstand......"
Misunderstanding...scared away? Zhao Kaixin said: An army of more than 200,000 people was frightened and defeated like this?
Zhao Kai's face was already very ugly, "Then, what about the prince? Where is he now?"
"He has escaped from Kaifeng Mansion and fled to Yingtian Mansion!"
Escape to Yingtian Mansion?
Zhao Kai's face was gloomy, "He, how could he abandon millions of common people in Tokyo and ignore them?"
"Your Majesty, the prince ran away with hundreds of thousands of people in Kaifeng Mansion. Before the prince escaped, because news of the coming flood had spread in Kaifeng Mansion for a while, many people had already run away. So in the end, he stayed in Kaifeng Mansion. There are very few people in Kaifeng City..."
People are very clever!
"This... we can't leave Kaifeng Mansion to the gold thieves!" Zhao Kai looked angry.
"Your Majesty, the gold thieves have not entered Kaifeng Mansion." Tong Guan said with a wry smile, "I came from Yingtian Mansion. When I passed by Kaifeng Mansion, the gold thieves were withdrawing their troops and retreating north."
Kaifeng Mansion, which has the highest housing prices in the world, is no longer wanted!
Zhao Kai doesn't want it, Zhao Huan doesn't want it, and the gold thief doesn't want it either... everyone has run away and only the house is left. Why does the gold thief come? Instead of being a gold thief, he became a real estate developer?
"This..." Zhao Kai's face was livid, and he glanced at the three people in front of him - hurry up and find a crime against Zhao Huanluo!
The crime is indeed there!
"Your Majesty," Tong Guan said, "before the death of the official family, an oral decree was passed down to you... The old ministers and King Su, King Jing, King Ji, King Yi, King Qi, King Yi, King Xu, King Yi, and Prince Pingyang all heard it with their own ears!"
There are so many kings who can testify!
Zhao Kaixin said: It seems that I can’t do anything if I don’t ascend the throne and become emperor! By the way, where are these little brothers? Are everyone in Taiyuan ready to support me?
"But, but..." Tong Guanjin was a little out of breath when he spoke. He took a few breaths and started talking again.
"But what?" Zhao Kai looked at Tong Guan nervously.
"But, but...these princes are dying, being caught, and missing..." Tong Guan stammered, "So, so...So His Highness the Crown Prince I didn’t know that the late emperor passed the throne to you.”
he does not know? Zhao Kai looked at Tong Guan and thought to himself: You won't tell him either?
Tong Guan continued: "Because the prince didn't know, he prepared to ascend the throne in Yingtian Mansion..."
Is this an accession?
This is a usurpation!
Zhao Kai is so angry! This is the throne! Not a pancake stall…
If Zhao Ji had not passed down the edict for him to take over, he might not be so angry if Zhao Huan ascended the throne and became emperor... But now that Zhao Ji clearly asked him to ascend the throne, Zhao Huan actually dared to seize power. This is a traitor and traitor. !
Seeing Zhao Kai's face, Tong Guan, Lu Yihao, and Liu Kai were all aroused - this mad king wanted to raise an army to seize the throne, right? Now that the Song Dynasty is facing a national crisis and foreign enemies are invading, this is not the time for brothers to fight against each other and fight a civil war!
Thinking of this, Lu Yihao and Liu Kai quickly winked at Tong Guan, and Tong Guan took out the edict written by Zhao Huan to Zhao Kai and handed it over with both hands.
"Your Majesty, this is the edict issued by His Highness the Crown Prince to you in the name of supervising the country... He made you the Marshal of the Army of Hebei and Hedong, the King of Jin, and granted 30,000 households in Taiyuan, which is actually not bad. ah."
Lu Yihao said: "Your Majesty, the territory we actually control now is only a small part of the state capitals in Hedong and Hebei. If we use this edict to capture the entire Hebei and Hedong, at least the entire Hedong and half of Hebei will be considered a victory." A beautiful thing.”
Liu Kai also said: "As long as the gold thieves can be driven out of the territory of the Song Dynasty, are you afraid that you will not be able to get the throne back?"
After hearing what Lu Yihao and Liu Kai said, Zhao Kai's face became even more livid, and he just looked at them without saying a word. This look was really scary. Lu Yihao and Liu Kai were so frightened that they did not dare to speak, and Tong Guan also did not dare to speak.
At this moment, there was a sound of horse hoofbeats. Chen Ji, who had not said a word just now, suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, Han Liangchen and Yue Pengju are here... You'd better listen to them first. That’s what you mean!”
It turned out that Han Shizhong, Yue Fei, Huang Wuji, Xiang Ke, Dong Jingang, Zhang Jun, Liu Qi, Li Xiaozhong, He Ji, He Moss and others were ordered to come one after another.
