Chapter 131: Guo Rong dies
"Mr. Zhao also knows the villain, but it is really the honor of the villain, what is the matter, Mr. Zhao, please say, the villain must know everything."
Yao Mingshi pretended to be very flattered, they were the grassroots generals in the army, and it was indeed an honor to be recognized by the staff of General Zhao Kuangyin, the deputy commander of the front division of the palace.
"Brother Yao doesn't need to be so polite, Zhao wants to ask you, where did General Shi Shouxin go, what he was doing, and when will he come back?"
Regarding the matter of Shi Shouxin being sent to the party, Zhao Kuangyin was a little suspicious, the party departments have not been very peaceful, the emperor sent Han Lingkun over before the expedition, why did he send Shi Shouxin over now.
"This villain is not very clear, I only know that our general did go to the party departments, it seems that the prince forced the general to go, as for what to do, the general didn't say, just said that it was a chore, so he brought a lot of people to go, and he was not afraid of Mr. Zhao's jokes when he said it, the villain is not qualified to be taken by the general."
There was nothing wrong with Yao Mingshi's answer, it was indeed impossible for a small lieutenant to know too much about military aircraft.
"Then which general is in charge of the guards of Kaifeng City now?"
"It's temporarily managed by General Cao Bin of the Guards Division."
"Did Cao Bin transfer the Guards Division's forbidden army?"
"That's not true, General Cao just came to inspect once a day, and he didn't change the arrangements of my general before leaving."
Zhao Kuangyin didn't continue to ask, and what he wanted to know about the rest, it was estimated that Yao Mingshi wouldn't know.
"Brother Yao, where are you going? Looking at the way you look like the spring breeze, you won't be in a hurry to get along. ”
"Hehe, Mr. Zhao is really not an ordinary person, but when the villain sees Mr. Zhao, those things are not important, if Mr. Zhao doesn't dislike the villain's vulgarity, the villain wants to invite Mr. Zhao to have a drink."
"Brother Yao's good intentions, Zhao understands it, don't delay you to find happiness, Zhao says goodbye."
"By the way, Mr. Zhao, do you know that Prince Zhao Kuangyi has now become a confidant of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but he really envy us to death."
Zhao Kuangyin was about to raise his legs and leave, when he suddenly heard the news of the second brother again, and hurriedly stopped and turned around, and asked:
"Tingyi...... Zhao Gongzi has now become a confidant of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Zhao really didn't know that Zhao was ordered to come back from the front line to do business, and he had just entered Beijing. ”
Yao Mingshi mysteriously grabbed Zhao Kuangyin and said:
"Mr. Zhao didn't know, after the emperor drove the expedition, the villain heard that Zhao Gongzi found the deputy commander of the guard division to make Lord Cao, and asked Lord Cao to help recommend him in front of the prince, but when the prince saw it, he immediately shocked Zhao Gongzi into a celestial man, and also let Zhao Gongzi participate in the action against the Liaogou mission, hehe, His Royal Highness the Prince also said that when my general comes back, the guard division and the palace front division will come to a military exercise, and the formation of the military exercise is drawn by Zhao Gongzi."
Zhao Kuangyin was a little ridiculous for a while, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is young and doesn't understand military affairs, this Cao Bin is definitely a clear-eyed person, he didn't understand the situation and recommended my second brother to the prince, I'm afraid that now my intestines are repentant.
"Oh? Zhao Gongzi turned out to have such an opportunity, my general Zhao fought on the front line, and he didn't know much about things at home, what else do you know, Brother Yao, tell Zhao again. ”
"Mr. Zhao is willing to listen, the villain naturally will not have anything to hide, why don't we find a place to sit down, the villain will be the east, and tell Mr. everything the villain knows, hehe, as long as Mr. can say a few good words for the villain in front of General Zhao......"
Zhao Kuangyin despised this person called Yao Mingshi in his heart, who could mix with the trustworthy henchman, and also participated in the distribution of the spoils of the military salary.
"Brother Yao, I'm sorry, Zhao has some other things, I really can't drink with Brother Yao today, so let's talk briefly, anyway, Zhao will go to General Zhao's mansion in a while."
Yao Mingshi added oil and vinegar, and the sky was full of flowers, and he blew Zhao Kuangyin's recent deeds in Kaifeng to Zhao Kuangyin.
In Zhao Kuangyin's ears, Yao Mingshi is obviously suspected of pleasing him, what kind of virtue is my Zhao Er, can I not know as a big brother.
Zhao Er doesn't even go to Qinglou now? I don't know if it's true, but if it's true, it's very gratifying for me as a big brother.
As for Zhao Er's method of commanding the formation, Yao Mingshi couldn't say it clearly, but he was quite godly, and Zhao Kuangyin was very disdainful of this.
What he wants to know is not how beautiful his second brother is now, but what he wants to judge from it about the situation of the crown prince Guo Zongxun.
When Yao Mingshi brags, he will naturally mention His Royal Highness the Crown Prince many times, and Zhao Kuangyin inadvertently interjects a few words of inquiry from time to time to understand some of the deeds of the prince during his imprisonment from the side.
From Yao Mingshi's almost marginless words, Zhao Kuangyin had some judgments.
Our Royal Highness the Crown Prince, since he was imprisoned in the country, has almost offended the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.
Our Royal Highness the Crown Prince is strong and willful, without the ability of his father, but he learns from his father's ruthlessness, which ......
However, the people of Kaifeng City praised the prince, who was bewitched by whom, and actually played a trick to buy the hearts of the people.
The people's hearts are not unimportant, but Zhao Kuangyin knows that in this era when you sing and I appear, the common people are just a group of insignificant wall grass, who is the emperor has little to do with them, as long as they can keep them from starving, they will say that this emperor is good.
In Zhao Kuangyin's view, now, at least for now, it is not advisable for the crown prince Guo Zongxun to oppose the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.
"Hehe, Mr. Zhao, I also heard that Gonggong Li, who was next to the emperor, has returned to Beijing, and Gonggong Wei, who used to be by His Royal Highness the Prince's side, is now out of favor."
Zhao Kuangyin was even more interested in this topic, and couldn't help asking:
"Brother Yao, do you know what Gonggong Li is here to do when he returns to Beijing?"
"This, the villain doesn't dare to talk nonsense, it seems that the emperor is not very satisfied with His Royal Highness the Prince's recent approach, this is to let Gonggong Li come back to supervise the prince's ......"
Hearing this, Zhao Kuangyin actually believed it, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, I see.
Maybe Zhao Kuangyin was really worried that the emperor had set up a killing game for him, and in the mouth of Yao Mingshi, a person who was not reliable at all, he heard that the great eunuch Li Tongjie was back to supervise the prince, and Zhao Kuangyin immediately chose to believe it.
The emperor can't stand the prince's reckless behavior, and he doesn't want to let the prince continue to stir up the court after his immortal death.
Moreover, who am I, Zhao Kuangyin, I am now the deputy of the front of the palace, Zhang Yongde, who has not recovered from his serious injuries, and is still recuperating in Yijin Pass, it is said that he can only recuperate, and he will not be able to return to Beijing until he fully recovers.
Then, the emperor sent me back to pass on the edict, and the purpose is obvious enough.
The emperor wants me Zhao Kuangyin to return to Beijing to stabilize Kaifeng and stabilize the court, but why didn't the emperor tell me clearly?
By the way, the emperor seems to have said: "Among all the generals, I trust you the most, and the only one who can take on this task is you, Zhao Kuangyin, don't let me down, remember, be loyal to the new emperor like I am, assist the new emperor, don't slack off, don't have different intentions"
Naturally, the emperor will not give me the privilege of supervising the crown prince, but the emperor actually made it very clear, that is, he wanted me to return to Beijing to assist the prince and help the new emperor ascend the throne.
The emperor has entrusted me with such an important matter, and I am still doubting the emperor's trust in me, alas...... It's kind of ridiculous.
Your Majesty, the minister Zhao Kuangyin will definitely obey your instructions, loyally support the crown prince to ascend the throne, help the prince clear all the forces that are not subordinate, and then ......
Your Majesty, if the crown prince is really unbearable, the minister will not learn from the famous Marquis Kong Ming, who could easily seize the kingdom of Shu, but he was willing to do his best for a promise.
Your Majesty, the minister can't do it......
Zhao Kuangyin, who was in a good mood, said goodbye to Yao Mingshi and did not return home, he secretly returned to Beijing...... It must have never happened.
I casually found a simple inn cat all night, and the next morning, as soon as the city gate opened, Zhao Kuangyin immediately went out of the city and rushed back to Chenqiaoyi.
"Zhao Kuangyin went back again, and Gu still thought he would make any moves."
Guo Zongxun felt a little pity, but thinking about it, Zhao Kuangyin now has no soldiers or generals in his hands, there is a paper edict empty, and he doesn't even have the jade seal of the country, what does he use to rebel?
"Yes, after Zhao Kuangyin left the city, the old slave's people did not continue to follow."
"It's okay, Wei Banban and Liu Junshi will do it, let's prepare to receive the order."
Zhao Kuangyin should be able to honestly return to Beijing to pass on the edict, which makes Guo Zongxun even more distressed, the wheel of history, it is really not something that I can easily reverse as a small traverser.
"Ding...... The limited-time broken system was activated, and due to Guo Rong's death, the system gave a lucky draw opportunity. ”
Guo Zongxun heard the long-awaited voice of the summoning system, but he was stunned, and then walked quickly into the secret room, instructing Li Tongjie that no one was allowed to come in.
Then, Guo Zongxun began to cry.
My father died, and I traveled here, and the man who loved me the most died.
Guo Zongxun, who was crying, was automatically brought into the roulette space by the system, at this time, where did Guo Zongxun still have the heart to play any big roulette.
"System, can you give my father back to me, I don't want to be this emperor, you let your father come back to life, okay?"
The golden spoon began to rotate autonomously, and the yin-yang fish also turned slowly and lifelessly, and finally, the spoon handle stopped at the Tiangan Xin Zi grid and the earth branch Shen monkey grid, and the yin and yang fish black rushed at the spoon handle.
The area of the Tiangan Xinzi grid was raised, turning into a small token and falling into Guo Zongxun's hands.
Xu Guangqi, Xu Zixian.
Guo Zongxun knew that he had pulled out a Tiangan-level figure this time.
Xu Guangqi, the word first, devoted his life to the study of mathematics, astronomy, calendar, water conservancy, etc., diligent writing, especially proficient in agriculture, translated "Geometry Original", "Taixi Water Law", "Agricultural Administration" and other books. At the same time, he is also a pioneer in the communication between Chinese and Western cultures.
This is another bigwig-level figure in the history of the Chinese nation.
However, Guo Zongxun's heart is still sad, if his father is still there, if his father can not die, these future generations of bigwigs, let them go back to their era.
When Guo Zongxun was sent out of the system space, he sat alone in the secret room all morning, and it was useless to have lunch.
But Li Tongjie was in a hurry.
It wasn't until after noon that Guo Zongxun walked out of the secret room, his face was as usual, and he said to Li Tongjie:
"Go, tell Wei Zhongxian, Lone will try the case of Shi Shouxin's corruption nest within today, Shi Shouxin's crime is extremely evil, and he will be sentenced to be executed, and all accomplices will be executed together, tomorrow, when Zhao Kuangyin returns to Beijing to pass on the edict, it will be when Shi Shouxin's head lands."
Guo Zongxun can't help but do this, once Zhao Kuangyin returns to Beijing, once Guo Rong's edict is read, and once Guo Zongxun receives the edict, then another Guo Rong's secret edict will also take effect at the same time.
In Guo Rong's view, this is the last test for Zhao Kuangyin, if Zhao Kuangyin honestly returned to Beijing to pass the edict and did not engage in these small actions, Guo Rong's other secret edict will give Zhao Kuangyin the power second only to the new emperor Guo Zongxun in the army.
In addition, Guo Rong's secret edict made a lot of restrictions on Guo Zongxun, the three prime ministers were ministers of care, the queen listened to the government, and the jade seal was in the hands of Guo Zongxun, but the military talisman, the most important military talisman, in the edict, Guo Rong actually handed over the talisman to the queen Fu Jinhuan.
Guo Zongxun is sad about the fact that Guo Rong died on the one hand, and on the other hand, he is also grieving, what does his father think?
Zhao Kuangyin became the No. 2 person in the Great Zhou military, the actual real power figure, because it was impossible for the emperor to lead the troops, and only Zhao Kuangyin led the troops.
The only thing that made Guo Zongxun feel relieved was that Guo Rong distinguished Yue Fei's Huzi Army separately, and Guo Zongxun was still the general of the Hug Army, and Yue Fei was the commander of the Hug Army.
The military power of the Hug Army is completely controlled by Guo Zongxun.
This may be the last balance that Guo Rong played before his death, or maybe he thought that this would not only prevent the prince from being too young to do stupid things, but also suppress those with bad intentions......
Although Guo Zongxun's heart was sad, he really wanted to say to Guo Rong, Father, you are completely superfluous.
The most important thing is that you left me the Hustle Army, but you left another larger Great Zhou Forbidden Army to Zhao Kuangyin......
This, where to reason, father, after testing Zhao Kuangyin for a circle, instead of helping his son find a way to suppress Zhao Kuangyin, he handed this guy a sharp rebel blade.
Guo Zongxun was very speechless for a while, he didn't know what kind of mood his father would be in before he died.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Youzhou City, after three consecutive days of onslaught by Li Chongjin and his troops, has always stood tall.
Guo Rong finally sent Yue Fei's army of the Han characters, and finally succeeded in capturing the so-called Nanjing Xijin Mansion of the Liao State, and the most important Youzhou among the sixteen states of Yanyun was finally recovered by the Great Zhou Xiong soldiers.
Guo Rong climbed to the head of Youzhou City, overlooking the corpses and bones under the city, and looking at the direction of Kaifeng from afar, Li Tongjie and Zhao Kuangyin must have rushed back to Kaifeng at this time.
My crown prince must be grieving the loss of his father, and I don't know if my queen can comfort him with gentle words, or perhaps, my queen is also immersed in grief.
"Spread my will, the whole army celebrates, for me, for the Great Zhou, for the soldiers, I have no regrets......"
"Long live the emperor, the Great Zhou is mighty."
"Wind"
"Wind"
"Wind"
The old lady Guo Wanche and the bloodied Yue Fei supported Guo Rong from left to right, and Guo Rong said to Yue Fei in a weak voice:
"Pengju, give me the sixteen states of Yanyun, all of them back......"
Yue Feihu had tears in his eyes and said loudly:
"Chen Yue Fei obeys the order."
Then, Guo Rong asked Yue Fei and Guo Wanche to help him back into the huge luan.
"I am here, on the day of recovering the whole territory of Yanyun, near Youzhou City, find a place for me, and bury the Great Zhou warriors who died in this battle with me, hahaha, in the past, I was always worried that someone would come to rob the tomb, with the protection of these tens of thousands of soldiers, why am I afraid of these chickens and dogs."
Guo Rong didn't return to Kaifeng after his death, this ......
If Guo Zongxun knew, he would definitely praise it, his father found the best way to prevent tomb robbery.
Bury the tens of thousands of soldiers who died in the battle to recover Yanyun with the emperor, and I will ask, who dares to dig it?
"Your Majesty, by all means, you have to think about His Royal Highness the Prince, and don't let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bear the infamy of unfilial piety."
The old lady doctor Guo Wanche still has an old-fashioned concept, how can the emperor be buried casually in Youzhou, which is far away from the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
"Imperial Doctor Guo, don't say more, I have made up my mind, I will sleep here for the people of my Han family, Yongzhen Youzhou, after I go, the rest of the matter will be handed over to Pengju."
After Guo Rong finished speaking, he looked up at the dome of Luan Jia, his eyes seemed to be far away, and there was such a trace of unwillingness and worry......
Guo Wanche stepped forward, and beside him was Nandinger, the first medical soldier of the Great Zhou.
"General Yue, the emperor is dead, here is handed over to the old man and Nightinger, outside, please General Yue."
"Old Lady Guo, please rest assured, with my Yue Fei here, no one can afford to turn the wind and waves."
The news of Guo Rong's death must be kept strictly secret, Yue Fei held back the grief in his heart, walked out of Luanjia, and arranged for the whole army to celebrate Daqing, while immediately announcing the decree to Li Chongjin, and Li Chongjin led 50,000 forbidden troops to rush to Gubeikou to join Qian Mao and guard against the Liao army in Liaoyang Prefecture.
As for how to attack Gubeikou, it was not Li Chongjin and Qian Mao's business, Yue Fei had his own plans in his heart.
Li Chongjin saw Guo Rong enter Luanjia, but only Yue Fei came out, and he didn't dare to disobey Guo Rong for sending him to Gubeikou, so he immediately ordered troops to go.
After Li Chongjin left, Yue Fei announced that the emperor would not participate in the celebration of the whole army tonight, because the emperor's dragon body was not safe, and under the consent of the old doctor, the emperor dispelled the idea of personally participating in the celebration of the whole army.
"All the soldiers, three days of Daqing, the emperor and hundreds of thousands of soldiers of my Great Zhou are together, three days later, prepare the troops and horses, the whole army will attack again, and fully recover the hometown of my Han Yanyun, the sword points to the Gubeikou, and laughs and drinks the blood of Hulu."
"The emperor has decreed that the soldiers who sacrificed in Yanyun will be selected outside Youzhou City to bury them, and I will work with the heroes of my Great Zhou to Yongzhen Youzhou for the people of my Han family."
All the officers and men of the army shouted:
"Long live the emperor, the Great Zhou is mighty."
"Yongzhen Youzhou, return my Han family to Lang Lang Qiankun."
"Wind"
"Wind"
"Wind"
The officers and soldiers of the whole army were covered in blood and shouted in unison with tears, not realizing the true meaning of what Yue Fei said that the emperor and the tens of thousands of soldiers who sacrificed together will be in Youzhou.
"Your Majesty, please accept the worship of the soldiers of the whole army, and please accept the blood and tears of the soldiers of the whole army."
Yue Fei silently prayed to the sky, and at this time, he thought of the crown prince Guo Zongxun again.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Chen Yue Fei will definitely not live up to the emperor's trust, and he will not return to Yanyun and swear not to return to the court."
In the three days of Daqing, the mausoleum of the martyrs of the Great Zhou Dynasty on the outskirts of Youzhou was also in a tense location, and this work was completed by the five hundred iron-blooded secret guards who had been guarding the emperor's side.
In order to commemorate the feat of recovering the sixteen states of Yanyun, the place where the emperor and the martyrs were buried was named the Sixteen Tombs.
It took Guo Wanche two days to complete the disposal of Emperor Guo Rong's body, and then, with the cooperation of five hundred iron-blooded secret guards, secretly transported Guo Rong's body to the Sixteen Tombs outside Youzhou City, where it was guarded by five hundred iron-blooded secret guards.
Jing Wuping, the commander of the iron-blooded secret guard, knelt in front of the emperor's spirit and swore an oath:
"Chen Jing Wuming led five hundred iron-blooded secret guards to swear in front of the emperor's spirit, swearing to defend the new emperor and swear to defend the Great Zhou."
Then, Jing Wuming separated three hundred people from the iron-blooded secret guard, and these three hundred people, under his command, returned to Kaifeng under the starry night and took on the task of secretly guarding the new emperor.
The deputy commander Tie Cang Beard led the remaining two hundred secret guards, and continued to stay in the Sixteen Tombs to protect the body of Emperor Guo Rong, until the remains of the emperor and the remains of the sacrificed martyrs were all buried, and they could be considered to have completed their mission.
Three days later, Yue Fei beat drums and gathered generals in the big tent of the Chinese army.
"All the generals, the emperor has a decree, now Youzhou has been decided, I am very relieved, Yue Fei, the deputy marshal of the Great Zhou Forbidden Army, will act as the marshal's order, and lead the soldiers and horses to complete my unfinished business, all the generals must work together and unite as one, and I will win all battles and be invincible."
The generals in the big tent bowed and saluted, and shouted in unison:
"The ministers receive the order, the ministers swear here, they will move forward bravely in battle, they will not be afraid of death when they kill the enemy, the military flag is going, they are indomitable, and the military soul is incomparable."
Yue Fei sat majestically on the left side of the commander's position, and the position of the commander was always reserved for Emperor Guo Rong.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor's dragon body is not safe, the imperial doctor said that he needs to recuperate, Yue is not talented, fortunately the emperor trusts him, this deputy commander, since the emperor gave it to me, I Yue Fei must be the one who will not give in, all the generals, do you have any objections to this commander?"
Since the conquest of Yanyun, almost every major battle has had Yue Fei and the Hughton Army, and every decisive victory was fought by Yue Fei under the command of the Hun Army.
Yue Fei's prestige is unparalleled in the Great Zhou Forbidden Army and the Fierce Army, and no one dares to compete.
"The last general and others will obey the emperor's will, and they are willing to listen to Marshal Yue's orders, and don't dare to disobey."
Yue Fei nodded, and pulled out the first Golden Skin Order:
"The Huwei General of the Huzi Army, Chai Yong, listens to the order."
