In the capital, the crown prince Long Zhaohuan is simply living like a year, although Song Wensong respects him in every way, but he looks at the court, but he can't see a like-minded person, in the capital he has become a superfluous person, the power he desires to control has become out of reach, as for the one he once dreamed of getting the throne, it is like the moon in the water, the flower in the mirror.

Dakang is gone, the country is going to die, where is his future and future Long Zhaohuan? He thought about it repeatedly, and felt that the only way for him to get ahead was to go south to the south of the Yangtze River.

Emperor Xinde in Jiangnan is already old, his dream of cultivating immortals has come to the end, and Emperor Xinde has no way to control the situation at this time, and even he may not want to control the situation himself.

At this time, if Long Zhaohuan can go down to Jiangnan as the crown prince, the prince will supervise the country, and then join forces in Jiangnan, maybe he can save Dakang from danger.

As long as Jiangnan is done well, these rebellious ministers and thieves who are kings everywhere will still have a chance to calm down one by one, and Long Zhaohuan can still see hope for the future.

No, today Long Zhaohuan summoned the head of the Su family, when the first assistant Su Xinghai, he saw Su Xinghai, and said with tears streaming down his face: "Su Xiang, I hurt you at the beginning, I left you in the capital, the capital has experienced so many hardships, you have suffered a lot of grievances with me, I, Long Zhaohuan, am sorry for you!" ”

Su Xinghai hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, don't be like this, the old minister is a loyal minister of Dakang, he should do his best for Dakang, and after he dies, what is it to suffer a little grievance?" It's not a big deal! ”

Long Zhaohuan said: "Su Xiang Gaoyi, it is really a blessing for me to have a loyal minister like you. Su Xiang, the current situation in the capital is precarious, but Jiangnan is not peaceful, recently I have been pondering, thinking about whether I can go to Jinling with Su Xiang, to put it in my heart, the palace is really worried about the body of his father, and Su Xiang must also be worried about the situation in Jinling, right?

There is no Su Xiang in Jinling, and the imperial court has lost its humerus, which is extremely unfavorable to Jiangshan Sheji! ”

Su Xinghai frowned slightly, he understood what Long Zhaohuan meant, this kid is going to slip away, in the current situation, how could Song Wensong let go of Long Zhaohuan? As soon as he thought of this, Su Xinghai said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is rightly worried, the Crown Prince is filial, I will definitely find a way to do this!" As soon as there is news in the future, I will immediately report it to His Royal Highness the Prince! ”

Long Zhaohuan stroked his palms and smiled, and said: "This palace knows that Su Xiang is a reliable person, okay, you and I will agree on this matter, look back and see the opportunity, as long as we get on the boat and go all the way south, Jinling will be there in a few days!" Long Zhaohuan was so happy that he was very excited, and there was no doubt that Su Xinghai's affirmative reply made him very excited.

Originally, he was more desperate, because he had no one to use, although Song Wensong was polite to him, but the guards and entourage of the East Palace were all cleaned up, and now the internal guards of the East Palace are all people installed by Song Wensong, in this case, the East Palace has no secrets about Song Wensong.

Although Song Wensong is different from Cao Weiming, this person is also a wolf with ambitions, can he return power to Long Zhaochang? That's simply not possible. Song Wensong used the status of Prince Long Zhaohuan to order the Quartet, at least north of the river, to respect the prince.

Moreover, Song Wensong claimed to be a loyal minister of Dakang, in this case, both the Longyou Song family and Cao Weiming were regarded as traitors.

For Song Wensong, there was a lot of pressure from the Song family, but because of the existence of Long Zhaohuan, Song Wensong could declare to the people of the world that he broke with the Song family because loyalty and filial piety could not be both, and he was a loyal minister of Dakang, but the Song family in Longyou wanted to rebel, and the two sides did not conspire with each other, and finally parted ways, and even turned against each other.

Song Wensong's truth is said to occupy the absolute upper hand morally, so whether in the capital or in the two rivers, Song Wensong's reputation is very good, and the cargo ship from the south of the Yangtze River has not been cut off from the capital, although Song Wensong only has the capital this place, but for the time being, it can still ensure that the building does not fall, and even can see the opportunity to expand its power again.

It is said that Su Xinghai came out of the East Palace, and was soon directly invited into the General's Mansion, the so-called General's Mansion is naturally Song Wensong, the prince supervised the country, named Song Wensong as the general of Zhenbei, and gave the previous Qin Wangfu as the general's mansion. Song Wensong finally has a mansion in the capital that matches his identity.

Su Xinghai was invited to the General's Mansion, Song Wensong was very enthusiastic, and he saluted the juniors in a proper manner, and said: "Su Xiang, you have never forgotten His Royal Highness the Prince, you are really a loyal minister, and you are a model for my generation!" ”

Su Xinghai smiled and said, "General, I'm afraid that the general will say exemplary things in his mouth, and he may be scolding his mother in his heart!" Haha......"

As soon as Su Xinghai said, he laughed, and Song Wensong hurriedly said: "Su Xiang, Wensong has been difficult all these years, and it can be said that he has gone through a lot of hardships to get to this point. Wen Song didn't dare to hide it from Su Xiang, I have been unavoidable day and night recently, just worried that the capital will fall into the hands of thieves one day!

Now for us, the forces of the Northern Song Dynasty in the West are pressed by soldiers, and clowns like Cao Weiming are not stiff, but there is a comeback, the capital can be said to be internal and external, in this case, Wen Song has some things that there is no way, if we don't go down and don't work together, the capital may fall again! ”

Song Wensong's tone is very sincere and his attitude is very good, but who is Su Xinghai? How could he be deceived by Song Wensong's outside? He snorted and said, "General, you guess that eight or nine are not far from ten, this time His Highness is looking for me to really want to go back to Jiangnan!"

Jiangnan is a rich land after all, the capital is too dangerous, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has experienced several setbacks and encountered several thrills, and now he is afraid! ”

Song Wensong was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "How can this work?" This is His Majesty's will for the crown prince to be stationed in the capital to supervise the country on behalf of the Son of Heaven, how can His Royal Highness the crown prince resist and disobey the decree? ”

Su Xinghai said lightly: "General, you can't say that, it was Your Majesty's will at the beginning, but now Your Majesty's condition is getting worse and worse, the prince wants to go back to Jinling to see his father, is this request too much?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that when he returned to the capital, he would like to see the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, and the key was to see His Majesty.

His Royal Highness understood that the capital could not do without him, and he told the old minister that he would stay in Jinling for three days, and then immediately return north, and then share weal and woe with the general, advance and retreat together, until all the rebellious ministers and thieves are swept away, and if he does not settle the judgment, he will never retreat again! ”

Su Xingyang sprinkled and said this, Song Wensong was speechless for a while. What can he say? What could he say? Song Wensong's so-called stay in Jinling for three days and return will return, I am afraid that a three-year-old child will not be able to deceive him, but Song Wensong wants to use this incident to stop him from resisting the decree, but it is completely unreasonable.

The key is that Su Xinghai now knows that at this time, as long as he publicizes it outside, can Song Wensong release the prince? If he released the crown prince, he would give away his political capital, and from now on, will he still be as righteous as he is today? Can you still claim to be a loyal servant of the court like you do now?

However, if he, Song Wensong, dared not let go, then what did he mean? Is it to hold the prince hostage? Do you want to learn from Cao Weiming's treatment of the prince as a slave? If that's the case, Song Wensong is still some loyal minister? He is a first-class traitor, everyone can punish him, and this time the capital will face unprecedented pressure.

Who is Song Wensong? When he was very young, he led the soldiers out to fight alone, I don't know how many trials and tribulations he has experienced, and he has encountered countless difficulties, these hardships have made him mature quickly, he knows that Su Xinghai is a powerful opponent, today he must solve this matter with Su Xinghai, otherwise, Su Xinghai can quickly make him collapse.

Regret, Song Wensong really regretted it, he felt that he was still too weak for the guards of the East Palace, so he shouldn't let Su Xinghai go to see Long Zhaohuan, this old thing is really powerful, today's incident is simply out of nowhere.

Taking a deep breath, Song Wensong said, "Su Xiang, tell me, what do you think now?" As long as it is your idea, you will definitely do what you can do, and you must do what you can't do to create conditions, okay? ”

Su Xinghai said: "General, under the calm surface of the capital recently, there is actually an undercurrent surging. The monk of the Guiyin Temple on the outskirts of Beijing went to the south of the Yangtze River, this old monk is not ordinary, and the general let him go very hastily.

The other person is Dai Gao, who is Dai Gao, don't you know what kind of general Dai Gao is? He also went to Jiangnan, he is Lu Zheng's Yue Feng, let him go to Jiangnan, wouldn't it give Lu Zheng a big boost? ”

Song Wensong sighed and said, "Su Xiang is right, but these two people don't work in my hands, and it is really difficult for me to refuse two thousand horses in exchange for two people in Jiangnan!" Lu Zheng and I are friends and brothers, and his father-in-law is also my elder, their father and son are reunited, can I stop it? ”

"As for the monk, a person from outside the world, if I tie him to the capital, how will the world's talents look at the capital? What will you think of me Song Wensong? ”

Su Xinghai said: "A thousand horses?" It's easy to say, although my Su family doesn't produce horses, but there are still some horses! General, Su has been in the capital long enough, Your Majesty is not in good shape now, he needs me! Therefore, today I hope that the general will be able to understand my painstaking ......"

After Su Xinghai said this, the situation instantly fell into a dead silence, the two were polite on the surface, but in fact they were-for-tat, Su Xinghai wanted to leave, and Song Wensong wanted to stay. In the words of three words, the words of the two were full of swords and swords!

Su Xinghai wanted to leave, but Song Wensong was unwilling to let go, Su Xinghai was willing to give a thousand horses, and he could promise not to entangle Long Zhaohuan again, but Song Wensong still hesitated!

Song Wensong is not afraid that Su Xinghai will go to Jiangnan and Lu Zheng will have another help, he and Lu Zheng do not have too many disputes at the moment, for Song Wensong, how can he survive, and he can live well This is his pursuit, Lu Zheng can have more people at hand now, he doesn't care.

Song Wensong considered that when the elites of the capital went south to Jiangnan like Su Xinghai, Jiangnan and the capital would lose an important link, so that Jiangnan could be decoupled from the capital anytime and anywhere, and it would be even more difficult for Song Wensong to get benefits from Jiangnan.

Also, Song Wensong wants to support the court in the capital, he can't be without him, he also needs talents, and the court in the capital will not fall, which is the key to Song Wensong's foothold, so Su Xinghai, the first assistant, is too important.

"Su Xiang, you went to Jiangnan alone, but the Su family in the capital is deeply rooted, what should you do with such a big family? Is it possible that everyone in the family goes to Jiangnan? Song Wensong said.

Su Xinghai smiled and said: "General, Su Mou went to Jiangnan and didn't go back forever, but to see His Majesty, see how his body and bones are, go to Jiangnan for a few days, let Jiangnan know that it is not easy for our capital, our suffering, go back and let them give us more support, and our Northern Imperial Court is also more generous, isn't it?" ”

Song Wensong sighed, he believed that Su Xinghai was a ghost, Su Xinghai said it well now, when he arrived in Jiangnan, he only needed a will from Emperor Xinde, Su Xinghai was ordered to stay in Jiangnan, what could Song Wensong do? Song Wensong saw this kind of thing clearly and thoroughly!

Su Xinghai went to the south of the Yangtze River, it must be a meat bun beating a dog, and there is no return. But from Su Xinghai's standpoint, he must not be shaken, knowing that he is lying, he can only say this, because Song Wensong needs to explain to others, and Su Xinghai also needs to explain to the Su family.

Also, he needs to give Song Wensong a reason to convince himself, otherwise, Song Wensong will definitely not let go!

Song Wensong knew that Su Xinghai had said this, and his intention to go had been decided, so he immediately said: "It's okay, Su Xiang, a thousand horses are very important, but there has been a shortage of food in the army recently, Su Xiang, your family is the largest household in the capital, can you support one or two of the food problem, and solve the urgent need!" ”

Su Xinghai said: "General, rest assured, it is my Su family's bounden duty to support the army, and I will ask the housekeeper to send 50,000 stone of grain to the army when I turn around!" ”

Song Wensong laughed and said: "Su Xiang is really a cheerful person, and Su Xiang needs to declare that it is His Royal Highness the Prince's intention to go to Jiangnan, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not be able to withdraw from the prison country, and he will appoint you to Jiangnan to visit His Majesty's condition, this matter must not be wrong, otherwise, I am afraid that there will be people with ulterior motives in the capital who have bad intentions!" ”

When Su Xinghai heard that Song Wensong was relieved, he immediately burst into flames, and hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, everything is up to the general!" The capital is now in a moment of crisis, the general is the only pillar of the capital, officials at all levels in the capital, regardless of civil and military attachés, all need to obey the general's arrangement, if there is a violation, you can immediately kill without forgiveness! ”

Song Wensong also laughed, Su Xinghai is the head of the civil officials, his statement undoubtedly cleared a big obstacle for Song Wensong to take power, the two of them have their own gains from this transaction, and they are very satisfied!!
