Chapter 2930: Extremely Stupid
The defense of Taiyuan was a complete victory, but it was not a good thing for the official Zhao Huan, and there was nothing to celebrate, on the contrary, his pressure was even greater.
It turned out that it was rumored that the queen Zhu Lian was pregnant with the child of the King of Han, but it was just a rumor, and the official family did not believe it, but they sent people to meet the queen seven or eight times in a row, and in the end they didn't even see the queen's face, how could it not be suspicious in this case.
If you extrapolate from the time, the queen is about to give birth, how can she see outsiders in this case? These made the rumors gradually real and clear, and in this case, the narrow-minded, suspicious official Zhao Huan was even more convinced that King Han had cuckolded him.
Green hat, this is undoubted, King Han is so lustful, it is normal to hook up with the queen of the national color and fragrance. The official Zhao Huan was cuckolded, so angry that he wanted to kill someone, but who to kill? Empress Zhu Lian and Han King Liu Zhenglong were far away in Jingzhao Mansion at that time, and even in the capital, they could not be easily killed. As for killing family members, what is the use?
The green hat is just a personal dignity, but the Han army's public departure from the Privy Council is tantamount to publicly announcing that the Han king wants to break the soil and seal the king, break with the imperial court, and break away from the control of the imperial court. This is a matter of Jiangshan Sheji, which makes the official Zhao Huan have to be cautious.
The King of Han stood on his own, and after the Emperor Taishang came to Nanjing Yingtianfu, he stagnated, and these two things were like two sharp swords hanging above his head, making it difficult for the official Zhao Huan to sleep. What should I do, do you want to divide the world into three parts, and you can't stage the Three Kingdoms Killing?
The imperial court is about to get out of control, and in this case, the official Zhao Huan also made a ruthless move, eradicating the cronies of the emperor one by one, leaving no one, and replacing all of them with his own cronies. However, the Chinese military officials of the Korean Bureau changed too much, and the Chaogang was chaotic, which made this young emperor even more troublesome.
It was messy all day long, and the official family who gave him a headache could only hide in Zheng Guifei's Zhaoren Palace, unwilling to come out.
Concubine Zheng knew that the official family was in a bad mood, so she comforted: "Your Majesty, if you say a different way of thinking, maybe it will be better?" ”
"What does it mean to think differently?"
"For example, the King of Han has a heavy army, and it is really difficult to deal with it in a short time, but the problem of the Emperor Taishang is easy to solve, since the Emperor Taishang is stagnant in Yingtianfu, then order Zhao Zhijian, the commander of the forbidden army of Yingtianfu, to escort the Emperor Taishang into Beijing, and this problem will not be solved." Concubine Zheng Guifei inherited the political mind of her father Zheng Juzhong, and still has unique opinions on many things, she whispered: "As long as the problem of the Emperor Taishang is solved, then the problem of the King of Han will be solved." After all, you are the orthodox official and the co-master of the world. The reason why the people of the world tolerate the Han King is that he is loyal to the Emperor, if there is no problem with the Emperor. Then if the king of Han does not obey the edict, he will be a chaotic minister and thief, and he will seek to usurp the throne, which will definitely be intolerable to the world. ”
The official Zhao Huan shook his head and said: "It's not that simple, the prince who becomes the prince, and the loser is Kou." At that time, Emperor Taizu added a yellow robe in Chenqiaoyi, and finally established the Great Song Dynasty, which was regarded as orthodox by the world. If Liu Zhenglong, the rebel minister, came to a yellow robe and established a new dynasty, he would eventually be regarded as orthodox by the world. The so-called loyalty to the monarch and patriotism are only superficial articles of literati, but in fact they are all a group of wall grass, and there are no important ministers to speak of. For the sake of their personal future and the prosperity of their families, these people will only be loyal to the monarch and patriotism, but it doesn't matter which one this monarch is or which country this country is. ”
Speaking of which, the official Zhao Huan was like a deflated ball, slumped to the ground, his eyes were dull, and his breath was weak.
Concubine Zheng Guifei said with a smile after helping the official family up: "Your Majesty, you are a fan of the authorities, and the concubine is a bystander." At that time, the situation was that the lord Shaoguo was suspicious, and the ministers had no future at all, and in the face of an uncertain future, they chose to be loyal to Taizu, which was understandable and the most correct choice. The yellow robe is also logical. But now, the official family is at the peak of the Spring and Autumn Period, there will be no yellow robes, and there will be no changes in Chen Qiaoyi. As long as the problem of the Emperor Taishang is solved, the problem of the King of Han can be solved. The concubines thought that the ambition of the King of Han was nothing more than to tear the earth and seal the king, and he would never shake the foundation of the Great Song Dynasty. Let the Han army of the King of Han and the Jin army of the Jin Kingdom fight, and in the end, both will be defeated, and the world will still be His Majesty's world. “
"I hope so." The official Zhao Huan was an undetermined person, capricious and moody, and he temporarily believed Zheng Guifei's words.
After pondering for a long time, the official said: "Okay, I ordered Zhao Zhijian, the commander of the forbidden army of Yingtianfu, to escort the Emperor Taishang to enter Beijing within ten days. As for the question of King Han, let's let me think about it. ”
Indeed, the problem of the King of Han cannot be solved in a short period of time, and it needs to be considered in the long run, but what if the Emperor Taishang enters Beijing and is obstructed by the King of Han? In order to relieve this concern, the official family personally talked with the Pan family, the Cao family, the Shi family, and the Gao family, and reached an agreement to clear the way for the Emperor Taishang to enter Beijing.
The four major families had long known that this was the result, and they had already reported to the king of Han, so they happily reached an agreement with the official family, and in return, the official family no longer allowed civil officials to attack the king of Han in the newspapers, and at the same time let the four families enter and leave the capital freely.
After coming out of the palace, everyone did not go home immediately, but gathered in Que Yunlou, since the king of Han left the capital, this is the first time that everyone has come here.
As the convener, Pan Xu said straight to the point: "The return of the Emperor Taishang to Beijing indicates that he was under house arrest and the situation of father-son rivalry ended with the victory of the official family. At this time, the spearhead of the official family should be aimed at the King of Han, and I am afraid that everyone will have a hard time in the future. ”
Gao Chen has left the Privy Council, but as the head of the Gao family, his words still carry a lot of weight, this guy said bluntly: "Now, our family members have basically been transferred to Hangzhou, and no matter how big the trouble in the capital is, it has little to do with our four major families." However, now we have to figure out what means the officials will use to deal with the King of Han, and how everyone should deal with it, which is the core. ”
Shi Yi said with a smile: "According to reliable information, Han Lie, the envoy of the Emperor of Jin, has already come to the capital, and it seems that he secretly sent King Yun back to Jin, it seems that the theme of Song Jin's peace should be related to King Han, do you say that the basis of what the two sides are doing is to strangle King Han?" ”
Cao Zhen said categorically: "I'm sure it's 100% a joint strangulation of the Han King." ”
"Since it is a joint strangulation of the Han King, should we intercept and kill Han Lie?" Gao Chen has always been decisive in killing, and since Han Lie, the envoy of the Jin State, had already threatened the King of Han and threatened everyone's interests, he was the first to propose to hunt and kill.
Pan Jing shook his head and said: "Strangling Han Lie, it doesn't have much effect, the Jin State sent a second envoy over, we can't keep doing this assassination, besides, if we assassinate, we just fell into the tricks of the official family, and the gains outweigh the losses." It is imperative that we contact Han Lie in advance to find out the true purpose of Jin Guo. ”
"It's a good idea, but how could Han Lie come into contact with us?" Shi Yi felt that since Han Lie was the envoy of the Emperor of Jin, there was no reason for him to have personal contact. He said: "It's nothing more than stopping the agreement, and in addition to these, I'm afraid it's how to target the Han King." As for the Jin and Song alliances against the Han King, I don't think it's very likely. ”
Pan Xu said: "It is rumored that Han Lie is a royal nobleman of the previous dynasty, so it is better to let the Chai officials contact him." In addition, we should be cautious, the province will be divided by the officials, in that case, we will be passive. Now it is impossible for the official family to deal with the King of Han openly and openly, and they can only use despicable and indiscriminate means. ”
For Pan Xu's proposal, everyone agreed, Cao Zhen thought for a while and said: "We can't sit still, at least we should do something!" If nothing else, the official family will definitely reach an agreement with the Jin State to jointly deal with the Han king, and the Jin state will maintain strong military pressure on the Han king, so that he cannot act rashly, and the official family will be free to deal with the Han king. Although it is said that the king of the Han Dynasty is rich in the world, but the northwest has always been barren, and food and other materials need to be transported from other places. ”
"Yes, the Hedong Road is so war-torn that it has long been unable to be self-sufficient, and the northwest side is already barren, once the official family orders to stop supply, the king of Han will not be able to buy food no matter how much money he has. Moreover, once the official family moves, then all the gold stores in various places will be confiscated, including all the industries of the Han King in Hangzhou, as well as the business school, the Shenwei Artillery Bureau, and the Maritime Bureau in Guangzhou will be seized, and the commercial empire of the Han King will collapse, and at that time, there will be more than 300,000 troops, and it will be difficult to resist the imperial court. Shi Yi expressed his concerns, he said: "Let's act in advance, we can't wait for the official family to do it, then it will be too late." ”
Cao Zhen said: "Maybe it's even worse, the recruitment points of the new army and the training base of the new army will be closed." For a long time to come, the Han king would not be able to recruit new soldiers, so he could only rely on the current army under his command to fight. ”
Pan Jing's face changed suddenly, and he said very heavily: "There is even more terrifying, the navy army is in Jiangnan, and more than half of the other army is recruited from all over the country, if the imperial court threatens the family, I am afraid that a wave of deserters will appear, and then the real nightmare will strike." You must know that the northwest is already sparsely populated, and if the losses in the war cannot be replenished, the myth of the invincibility of the Han army will be broken. ”
Although there are many crises, the reason why the four major families have been able to exist as the top level in the Great Song Dynasty for more than 160 years still has a background that is difficult for the outside world to imagine, and the heads of the four major families still have abilities beyond ordinary people.
Shi Yi, the eldest, said: "Although it seems to be in crisis, it is not a dead end, as long as our four major families are united, this matter will still have a turnaround." It's also time to tell the official family that the Great Song Dynasty is in whose hands, and we should also do something for the King of Han. ”
The four major families began to get busy, but things were complicated, how could they be solved all at once, and in the case of many crises, shadows hung over the Han Palace.
This day will come sooner or later, but he didn't expect this day to come so early, the King of Han faced a complicated situation, at this time, he really realized that the Great Song Dynasty could not be seized by military strength, at least now it is still in the hands of the Zhao family, unless it is until the second emperor is taken captive and the Great Song Dynasty changes drastically.
King Han had been hiding in the room for three days and came out, and he didn't let anyone in, which made the princesses worried, everyone knew what happened, although Chai Jin saw his uncle Han Lie, but he still couldn't stop Song Jin from reaching an agreement. Now that Emperor Taishang has been placed under house arrest in the Longde Palace, the official family has gradually taken control of the overall situation and began to deal with the King of Han.
The news from all over the place is bad news, although the four major families have dispatched, but after all, they dare not blatantly confront the imperial court, at least not now. In this case, it is still timid, and it is difficult to reverse the whole situation.
On the fourth day, Chai Jinjiao pushed open the door hard, she didn't know if King Han would be angry, but at this time, she could only come to persuade King Han, otherwise if it dragged on like this, she didn't know what chaos would happen.
No drinking, no smoking, of course, the first batch of cigarettes in this era has been manufactured and transported to Jingzhao Mansion, but the King of Han did not smoke, let alone drink, the whole person held a copy of "Spring and Autumn" and watched it attentively, even Chai Jinjiao came in, he did not find it.
"Husband, don't be like this, sisters, the children are terrified." Chai Jinjiao snatched the copy of "Spring and Autumn" from Liu Zhenglong's hands, and she choked up with tears in her eyes and said: "Husband, you can't be like this, everyone is waiting for you to give orders, how can you be decadent, now is not the end of the world, we have powerful soldiers and horses, it's a big deal to take back the country from the Zhao family, and can we still be suffocated by the imperial court?" ”
"Baby, this is the first time you've called me husband." Liu Zhenglong held Chai Jinjiao in his arms, and he said with a smile: "How can this king be decadent? Zhao Huan's wife let Lao Tzu sleep, and he has already given birth to a daughter to King Gu, what is his little trick? This king can pinch him to death with a small finger, economic sanctions, cut off the source of soldiers, this is Zhao Huan's last hole card, but this king has not made a move? ”
Liu Zhenglong, who swallowed mountains and rivers, looked at the rivers and mountains, and scolded Fang Xuan, came back again, his face was full of domineering, and there was no decline in everyone's imagination at all.
"But you haven't been out of this room for three days, you haven't eaten for three days, you're hungry, I'll ask the maid to bring the food."
"For three days, I was indeed hungry, but the lonely king didn't want the maid to send food, the lonely king wanted to eat you."
"Don't, I'm embarrassed in broad daylight, besides, the sisters still love the outside, if they know, they won't be ashamed to death."
