"The emperor has abandoned the world!"

"The left servant of the edict Shangshu shoots, the servant of the door is Zhangdun, the middle scholar is the housekeeper, the left of the Shangshu Cai Bian, the right of the Shangshu is Xu Jiang, and the Privy Council has been visited."

“。。。。。。。。”

The emperor will be in a big way, and he will be in a big costume on the same day or within three days, and he will be in a big way, a small auspicious, a big auspicious, a good luck, a new hope, a start, and a lai, and he will immediately mourn and announce it to the world.

But at present, the most important thing is to discuss and establish who is the emperor, which is related to the long-term peace and stability of Zhao and Song Dynasty, the lives of many people, and the glory and wealth of many people.

When it comes to things like mourning, it is almost to fool the officials and the people, you must know that the imperial court relies on punishment and etiquette to maintain the rule of the country, and the murderous ceremony is a very important link.

Although the Empress Dowager Xiang had quelled the short-lived riots in the palace at this time, and declared that Zhao Xu's last order was that Zhao Ji would inherit the throne, but if this matter was not recognized by the ministers, especially the ministers of the two provinces, it was still impossible to do anything.

Therefore, the most critical thing at this time is that the Empress Dowager Xiang must get the support of the ministers of the two governments, and there is no delay at this moment.

After Zhang Dian, Zeng Bu and others, who were already anxious, got their will, they hurriedly entered the Funing Palace.

After the four of them entered the Funing Palace, they saw that a bead curtain had already been hung in the hall, and after the bead curtain made of hundreds of real pearls of almost the same size, the ministers vaguely saw the figure of a woman, and without thinking about it, this person was the Empress Dowager Xiang, who was sobbing in a low voice behind the bead curtain.

On the side of the bead curtain is a pair of imperial couches, Zhao Xu's body is lying on the imperial couch, there is no big burial, just a small burial, the emperor's court clothes on the body are neatly dressed, the face is covered with a thin silk silk, the body that has been sick for a long time is extremely thin, lying on the imperial couch is almost level with the edge of the bed.

After Liang Shicheng saw the four ministers of the two provinces enter the hall, he tiptoed forward, stretched out his hand and gently lifted the silk silk on Zhao Xu's face.

Zhao Xu's face was calm as usual, his face was like Fu Fan, and his expression was relatively peaceful, as if he was asleep.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is coming, Your Majesty..." Seeing this, the four of them immediately became sad, and rushed to kneel down in front of the couch, with tears streaming down their faces.

Whether the four of them are really sad or falsely sad, whether they are sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox, or they are sad, they all show a grief-stricken look, but they only dare to cry quietly, but they dare not cry loudly, just like the four little daughters-in-law.

The old tears were scattered on Zhao Xu's couch.

"The family mourns, and the body is flat." After a long time, the Queen Mother Xiang saw that the four of them really couldn't cry any tricks, so she said from behind the bead curtain.

"Wechen and others knock to see the Queen Mother." Hearing this, Zhang Dian and Zeng Bu and other four people got up, stood left and right with the wat divided, Zhang Dian and Xu Jiang on the left, Cai Bian and Zeng Bu on the right, bowed down together and saluted.

"Ladies and gentlemen." Xiang Empress Dowager then said straight to the point: "The first emperor abandoned the world and left, and the mourning family should announce to the world at this time and mourn for the first emperor, but the country cannot be without a king for a day, so at this moment the secretary of state is summoned to come to discuss it, the secretary of the family, who do you think can stand?" ”

Coming, coming, at this time, the four of them felt their hearts beat faster, and the words they had already thought of before were stuck in their throats at this time, and they couldn't speak.

It is said that the Queen Mother wants to make who is the emperor, at this time the four of them have no way of knowing, if they speak rashly, they may anger the Queen Mother, and it will be a big deal.

"Niangniang, the old minister will say it first?" After glancing at the other three, Zhang Dian spoke first.

Everything in this world must be given the first opportunity, and if the opportunity is obtained, it will definitely be twice the result with half the effort.

At this time, if Zhang Dian first proposed who should be the emperor, if anyone echoed it, even if the Empress Dowager wanted to oppose it, she would be powerless.

Zhang Dian thought of the key here, so he spoke first.

"Zhang Qing's family, please speak." Empress Dowager Xiang frowned and said.

"The Queen Mother, you should set up the thirteenth son, King Jian, Zhao Ru." Zhang Dian said loudly: "King Jian Zhao seems to be the first emperor's own brother, since he was a child, he has been full of scriptures since he was a child, and he is a person of filial piety. ”

As soon as Zhang Dian said this, everyone was immediately startled, didn't Zhang Dian have a close relationship with King Shen? At this time, why did he suddenly support King Jian, Zhao Ru?

The people of Funing Hall looked at each other, puzzled.

After Zhang Duan finished speaking, he glanced at Xu Jiang anxiously, hoping that Xu Jiang would come out and echo him, so that he would get the first opportunity.

At this time, Xu Jiang looked at his nose and nose and heart, just like an old monk was in a state and as if he was asleep, there was no reaction at all, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Zhang Dian reluctantly turned his attention to Cai Bian for help, hoping that Cai Bian could abandon his previous suspicions and echo his words.

The two have been colleagues for so long, and Zhang Dian asked himself that there was nothing to be sorry for Cai Bian, except for occasionally scolding and beating him twice... There isn't really much conflict between the two, except for the phase battle... Read it

If Cai Bian is attached to himself at this time, then he doesn't mind recommending Cai Bian to sit on the throne of the prime minister before Zhishi, Zhang Dian said secretly in his heart.

When Zhang Dian was making wishful thinking, Cai Bian opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he looked at the Queen Mother through the bead curtain, then looked at Zhang Den, and then looked at Zeng Bu and Xu Jiang, and then became similar to Xu Jiang, and the old monk was settled. . . .

Zeng Bu touched his long beard, but he was also silent.

"Zhang Qing's family." Seeing that the other three looked like they had nothing to do with themselves and hung up high, Empress Dowager Xiang suddenly panicked in her heart, and said: "They are all the sons of the First Emperor Shenzong, how can they be close to each other?" The five brothers of the first emperor, Zhang Qing's family doesn't have to be so favoritistic, right? ”

"This..." Zhang was speechless.

How could Empress Dowager Xiang put Zhao Xu's own brother, Concubine Zhu's parent-in-law, on the throne? If this is the case, Concubine Zhu, the mother of the two emperors, will one day ride on her head, at least on an equal footing with herself.

These are all intolerable to the Queen Mother.

Besides, at present, the Empress Dowager Xiang has put Concubine Zhu under house arrest in the palace, so she has formed a mortal enmity with Concubine Zhu, if King Jian ascends the throne at this time, what can there be to the Empress Dowager Xiang?

No matter what, King Shen Zhao seems to inherit the throne, and he secretly made up his mind to the Queen Mother.

"What the Queen Mother said is true." Zeng Bu first opened his mouth and echoed: "Weichen has the courage to ask who the Queen Mother wants to set up?" ”

In fact, Zeng Bu and others already knew who the Empress Dowager Xiang liked, and at this time they were just confirming it.

If the queen mother confirms the candidate for the heir, then it can be guaranteed.

"The first emperor Shenzong often said that the eleventh brother Zhao Ji was blessed, and the mourning family still sighed when he thought about it, and the mourning family thought that Zhao Ji, the king of Duan, could inherit the throne." Xiang Empress Dowager recalled Shenzong, and her face showed a sad look, but through the bead curtain, Zeng Bu and the others did not see it, but heard the sound of the Empress Dowager choking.

Blessings? Zeng Bu and the others secretly said in their hearts, why hadn't they heard that Emperor Shenzong had said that Duanwang Zhao Ji was blessed?

However, there are many secret things between their husband and wife that only they know.

"We're waiting for you... Zeng Bu wanted to take the lead in finalizing the matter, but Zhang Duan interrupted Zeng Bu's words.

"Waste grows and grows young, and the way to take trouble is also!" Zhang Dian said loudly: "The son is not virtuous, and the son is not noble." This system began at the end of the Shang Dynasty and was set at the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, and has lasted for thousands of years, and cannot be easily changed. My Emperor Taizu Gao has gone through thousands of dangers and opened a flood industry for 10,000 years, and it is not easy to build a foundation. Jun is the foundation of the country, is the hope of China, the long does not stand young, this ancient and modern system, can not be changed, Qin abolished the eldest son Fusu, set up Huhai, to the second and died, throughout the ancient and modern, how many dynasties have changed, all because of the abolition of the long and young, and the disaster of Xiao Wall. ”

Zhang Dian then bowed down and said loudly into the bead curtain: "Weichen weeps blood and plays, please establish the ninth son of the first emperor, King Shen Zhao Tong, to succeed the unification and call the world, so that it is the blessing of my holy dynasty, so, the world is fortunate!" Blessed are the people! ”

"Zhangdun!" Zeng Bu was interrupted by Zhang Dian, and the anger in his heart was already uncontrollable, and at this time, Zhang Duan wanted to support Zhao Tong, which made Zeng Bu extremely angry, so Zeng Bu simply tore his face, anyway, the two of them had already torn their faces.

Win or lose, in one fell swoop!

Zeng Bu pointed at Zhang Dian and shouted: "Hugh is alarmist! Do you want to grow up? Is it true that my pilgrimage only stands for the elders and not for the young? Since Emperor Taizu Gao, is there only the elder and not the young? Haven't you heard that the virtuous do not stand up? Emperor Taizong is the younger brother of Emperor Taizu, who succeeded Emperor Taizu to open the foundation of eternity and create peace for all eternity. My Emperor Yingzong is not the eldest son, is that the way to cause trouble? Ancient and modern? Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty is not the eldest son, but Emperor Jing created the 'rule of Wenjing', is this also the way to take trouble? ”

Sima Zhao's heart, passers-by know, Zeng Bu secretly said in his heart, Zhang Dian has always scoffed at the old law, but at this time he has to obey the ancestral system...

"Niangniang" Zeng Bu then bowed to the Queen Mother behind the bead curtain and said: "Weichen invited Duan Wang Zhao Ji to enter the palace, succeed to the throne, inherit the emperor's rule, and call the world." ”

"Niangniang, the ninth son of the first emperor, King Shen Zhao Yan, has always had an eye disease." Cai Bian then said to the Empress Dowager: "How can you reign in the world like this? Therefore, Weichen played the same as Zeng Bu, and the Empress Dowager Fu begging issued a decree to invite King Duan to enter the palace to inherit the emperor's rule. ”

"In this way, it depends on Zhu Qing... Xiang Xiang said happily when she heard this, but before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Zhang Dan.

"King Duan is frivolous, you can't rule the world!" Zhang Dan's temper flared up again, pointing at Zeng Bu and the others and shouting angrily: "Do you want to harm my Jiangshan Society? ”

"Zhangdun, Hugh is talking nonsense." Zeng Bu also said loudly: "I will wait for my subordinates to obey the arrangement of the Queen Mother." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Dian slowly took off his official hat and said: "My Taizu Emperor Gao had a difficult business, and after thorns, he created a flood industry for all generations, if the Duan King is the emperor, my Great Song Dynasty is in danger, and thousands of people in the world are in danger, if the Queen Mother does not listen to the advice of the old minister, the old minister will splash blood on the jade rank today." ”

As soon as Zhang Dan said this, everyone was stunned, and everyone in the hall of Zhang Dan's temper knew it, and he might really do it.

Under Zhang Dan's death, in the Funing Palace, for a while, the two sides were deadlocked and fell into a silence.

"Hey, hey, Queen Mother, Xianggong Zhang." Xu Jiang finally couldn't be silent anymore at this time, so he opened his mouth to persuade: "It's better to mourn first, let the kings enter the palace to lay the ground, and then think about it in the long run?" ”

Zhao Xu's body was still lying on the side, and these people were still intriguing, and Xu Jiang was extremely unbearable.
