The ministers retreated, and Zhao Huan looked at the empty hall like ice, and a chill suddenly appeared.

A gust of cold wind blew in, and Zhao Huan couldn't help but shiver.

Since he came to power, he has worked hard, been cautious, punished the six thieves, overturned the wrongs, removed the ban of Yuanyou's academic party membership, endowed the scholars with poetry, edicted those who practiced martial arts and military books, and eliminated the seventeen things of the people's suffering......

Could it be that all of his hard work is in vain, and the rivers and mountains of the Great Song Dynasty will come to an abrupt end when they reach their hands?

The Jin people tyrannically killed and killed, besieged Taiyuan City, eroded Hebei Hedong, and Tokyo City was a horse and a flat river, and there was no danger to defend. The planter wrote on the road, please move west to Chang'an, fortunately Chang'an to avoid its front, according to the danger of mountains and rivers to refuse gold.

The Jin people are holding the power of a hundred victories, and the soldiers are flourishing, and honesty cannot be used as its peak. Today's plan is to move the capital to Chang'an, or move south to Jiangning, and appoint a minister of humerus to stay in Tokyo, which is the best policy. Some courtiers seconded the proposal, but the so-called Qingliu headed by Li Gang was impassioned, coerced public opinion, and did everything possible to prevent the imperial court from moving the capital, and they were like saints.

"Is there any city in the whole world that is stronger than the capital? In the land of Gyeonggi, the temple of the Great Song Dynasty, hundreds of officials of the imperial court, and millions of people are all here, how can they be abandoned? Your Majesty should reorganize the army and horses, pacify the army and the people, and hold the capital. ”

Thinking of Li Gang's words in the court, Zhao Huan hated it in his heart, and he couldn't help but snort coldly in his nostrils.

These scholars and doctors, all of them are public and private, and they kidnap the court with righteousness at every turn, roaring at the court, but they are all ignorant of soldiers and useless, which is really disgusting.

If you have the ability, you will drive out the golden soldiers, kill all sides, and share the worries of the court and the king. After one battle after another, either the soldiers were lost, or they fled from the battle, full of ugliness, and threw into the face of the Great Song Dynasty.

Ancient books say that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. What is the intention of these so-called loyal ministers to bind the royal morality in this dangerous city of Tokyo?

Historically, if Zhao Huan could move the capital to Chang'an according to the plan of the planter, take the danger of mountains and rivers as the source of the general strategy of resisting Jin, leave a minister of Zongze to stick to Tokyo, and Xu Wei to recover the plan, then the situation in China can be restored to peace and security, and weak and strong.

Zhao Huan did not use the strategy of the teacher, and finally had the "shame of Jingkang", when the city of Tokyo was broken, Zhao Huan sighed: "Don't use the words of the teacher, so that's it!"

In the final analysis, Zhao Huan was indecisive and did not make any decisions, and scholars such as Li Gang and students such as Chen Dong desperately obstructed him, thinking that the court was cowardly, which was also one of the reasons.

But that's all for later.

Zhao Huan thought for a moment, and asked the waiter, "You go and see, has Geng Xiang left?"

The chamberlain said respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, Geng Xiang has not left yet, and is still waiting outside the palace."

Zhao Huan's heart was relieved, and he nodded and said, "Quickly Xuan Geng Xiang enters the palace and gives him a seat."

"Geng Xiang, since I ascended the throne, I have been trembling and walking on thin ice, how can there be such a catastrophe of the country, internal and external troubles, what is the reason?"

Geng Nanzhong didn't know the knot in the heart of this official disciple, he was indecisive, and he was at both ends.

He pondered for a moment and said softly: "Your Majesty, I am weak in the current dynasty, and the golden people are strong. At the beginning of His Majesty's assumption of the throne, he should respond to the heart of heaven and obey the desires of people. Compromise and seek perfection, punish the traitor, and match the will of the people of the world. ”

Seek perfection and punish the traitor.

Zhao Huan's face changed slightly, and he instantly understood what Geng Nanzhong meant.

"Your Majesty, the siege of Taiyuan has not been resolved, the situation in the east of the river is very dangerous, and the safety of the sect and society is unknown. If you belittled Li Gang, it was said that the use of troops was done by Li Gang and Yao Pingzhong privately, not the original intention of the imperial court. Then the gold and silver and thick coins will be used to settle the gold, and the external troubles will be removed. ”

Zhao Huan was relieved in his heart, and Geng Nanzhong's words hit his heart. Afraid of gold like a tiger, talking about golden changes, the emperor who has just ascended to the throne has already broken his courage.

"Geng Xiang's words are good."

Zhao Huan thought for a moment and hesitated: "Emperor Daojun is still in Zhenjiang, so it is better to temporarily commission Li Gang to go and persuade Emperor Daojun to return to the capital." Then send Li Gang to Hedong and entrust him with a side matter to relieve the suspicions of Jinren. What does Geng Qing think?"

Geng Nanzhong pondered: "Degrading Li Gang may be able to relieve the suspicion of Jinren, but the internal thief has not been eliminated, and it may be difficult to calm the hearts of the courtiers."

Zhao Huan was taken aback and wondered: "Geng Xiang is talking about Zhao Liangsi?"

Geng Nanzhong nodded and said: "A few days ago, the imperial historian Hu Shunzhi impeached Zhao Liangsi in the court, accused him of forming a border trouble, defeating the Khitan for a hundred years, and making Jin Kou invade the mausoleum and bring disaster to China. Does Your Majesty remember this? ”

Zhao Huan bowed his head and was silent. Zhao Liangsi entered the Song Dynasty from Liao and promoted the "Maritime Alliance", but it brought a catastrophe to the Great Song Dynasty.

"If my memory is good, Zhao Lianghe, a thief, was taken from office by Emperor Daojun, cut off the fifth order, and is now imprisoned in the prison of Dali Temple."

Zhao Huan said in a deep voice: "This sanctimonious and ill-intentioned person led the wolf into the house and brought disaster to China, and he is a national thief, and it is indeed a pity to die." In Geng's opinion, how to deal with it?"

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Geng Nanzhong's eyes, which made people shudder.

"First denounce them, and then slowly get rid of them, and die to comfort the grievances of the people in the world."

Zhao Huan nodded slightly. In order to appease the courtiers, not only the "six thieves" must be eliminated, but also Zhao Lianghe, who is a heinous crime and a giant traitor who lures wolves into the house, must also be eliminated.

……

"The Jurchen hates the Liao people to cut their bones, and Tianzuo is desolate and unethical. If this dynasty sends envoys to Zideng and Lai to wade into the sea, marry the Jurchens, and make an appointment with them to attack Liao, their country can also be planned. ”

In the cold and damp prison of Dali Temple, a thin man in prison clothes and with a mantle is leaning on the corner of the wall, sitting on the straw, describing it as withered and demented.

"Zhao Liangsi, get up and eat!"

The jailer's call rang out outside, and the man in his cloak fell silent and motionless.

"It's better to eat if you love to eat or not, starving! Fanzi has withdrawn his troops, and Da Song Ansheng has been born. You dog thief, just wait for Cai Jing and these dog thieves to be beheaded! ”

The jailer cursed a few harshly, and left with the filthy barrel.

"Hahaha!"

The man with the cloak suddenly burst out laughing, but there was a lot of pathos in his voice.

"Its country can be profitable, but I don't mean that China has eroded so far. Fanzi spring goes to autumn, when the world is shaken, the Great Song Dynasty is worried about destroying the country, and everyone will not escape this catastrophe!"

His voice was high-pitched, heartbreaking, poignant, mad, and made people panic and want to leave.

"I miss Ma Zhi, admire Chinese culture, and return to the Celestial Empire at the cost of life and death. I thought that China was splendid, the country was rich and the army was strong, but who knew that the pearl was cast into the dark and ended up like this. It's providence, providence!"

The prisoners in the prison stood up one after another, came to the door of the cell, and listened to Ma Zhi's lamentation of generosity.

"You bastard, you have committed such a heinous crime, and you dare to gossip here, see if I don't clean up your dog thief!"

The jailer "lifted" the bucket, and the pig-like soup in the bucket spilled and splashed on the jailer's trouser leg, which added to his anger.

"Lao Yu, these dying people, what should he do. The imperial court has already made a decree to send more than ten members of his family to Chenzhou, and he will only receive it at that time!"

The jailers left, and the prisoner in the next cell looked at the indignant Zhao Liangsi, shook his head and said, "Zhao Liangsi, you can be described as a smart one, and you are confused for a while. The court lord is mediocre, the military and the government are corrupt, and you are putting your hopes on this generation, you can be said to be to blame, and you are completely confused! ”

"Brother Li, from today onwards, please call me Ma Zhi, the name of Zhao Lianghei, and I have nothing to do with it."

Zhao Liangsi regained his composure, shook his head, looked at the roof of the prison room, and muttered to himself.

"In the past, when I was in the north, I formed a righteous alliance with Yanzhong's friends Liu Fan and Li Zheng, as well as my brother Ma Rouji, and wanted to pull out Youyou and Jizhou and return to the Heavenly Empire. The four of us once drank wine under the Arctic Shrine, prayed to the heavens for an appointment, and when he became famous, he would hang a crown and thank him for his heart, and never thought of taking fame and getting rich. ”

The prisoner surnamed Li nodded and said, "I have also heard about this matter. Brother Ma asked Jin to destroy Liao and obtain the land of Yanjing, so he wanted to buy land and return it to farming, but unfortunately Emperor Daojun failed to allow it. Otherwise, there would be no disaster today. ”

"Brother Li is a bosom friend below."

Zhao Liangsi smiled bitterly: "Zhang Jue betrayed Jin, and the court accepted it, and he was in the clouds: "The country's new alliance with Jinguo will lose its joy in this way, and there will be no regrets in the future." The officials did not listen. A dispute arose between Song and Jin, which led to today's disaster. ”

As soon as his voice changed, he said sadly: "It's a pity, Brother Li doesn't know, the Jurchens have a beast's heart, and their desires are difficult to fill, even if the court does not accept Zhang Jue, the Jurchens will also go south to invade the Song Dynasty, and with the consistent behavior of the imperial court, there will be this prison sooner or later."

Brother Li was stunned for a moment, and said gloomily: "Isn't there room for recovery in this matter?"

He also understood at this moment that for the sake of peace in the imperial court, even a major war-faction minister like Li Gang, who had made great achievements, could be said to be deprecated and reprimanded, and discarded like a clog, not to mention the confessed "disaster to the country" like Zhao Lianghe.

"In terms of his own gains and losses, the good heir will not take it to heart."

Although Zhao Liangsi claimed to have restored his original name Ma Zhi, he still unconsciously claimed to be Zhao Liangsi, the name given by the Daojun Emperor Zhao Ji, and it seemed that he was still not dead set on the Great Song Dynasty.

"The ambition of the golden man and the wolf, there will be a two-way attack in winter, and I am only afraid that my Great Song Dynasty will be in danger of destroying the country. It's a pity that the court still hopes for peace. However, I, Zhao Liangsi, can't see it. ”

With a bang, the cell door was opened again, and several officials hurried into the cell with a eunuch.

Zhao Liangsi knelt down, and the last trace of fantasy in his heart was shattered with the eunuch's reading.

“…… The national thief Zhao Liangsi ran up and down, formed border troubles, defeated the Khitan for a hundred years, made the northern captives invade the mausoleum, eroded Shenzhou, and caused disasters to the imperial court, and the crime was unforgivable,...... heir and wife, denounced Chenzhou ......"

The officials left, and Zhao Liangsi's mind went blank and sat on the ground weakly.

He ran up and down all his life, died all his life, went through countless hardships, and was loyal to the Song family, but in exchange for the evaluation of a national thief, and the ending of the whole family!

After a long time, two lines of hot tears flowed down his cheeks, and he suddenly kowtowed desperately, and his forehead hit the ground with a "bang".

"Great Song Dynasty, official family, is this the end of my Zhao Lianghe's lifelong dedication and admiration for China!"

The prisoner surnamed Li looked at Zhao Liangsi, who was crying bitterly and kowtowing, shook his head slightly, and sighed in his mouth: "Brother Zhao, the country is about to die, and there will be a vision." You and I are all pitiful people, all of whom are the martyrs of this bastard court! ”
