Chapter 319: Bloody Jingshi (4)
Qinzong also felt that the Jin people were too much, and he originally wanted to follow Li Gang's wishes, but a thought suddenly flashed in his mind: King Yun has always been a big trouble in his heart, and Bai Shizhong and Li Bangyan are also supporters of King Yun.
Eradicate dissidents!
Zhao Huan decided to use the peace talks to make a fuss.
King Yun was a hostage and entered the gold camp, the court immediately took a tough attitude, and even immediately went to war, and King Yun did not want to come out again; Raising gold and silver in the middle of the day, this task is impossible to complete, and there is just the opportunity to unload the mill and kill the donkey; Li Bangyan is specially responsible for negotiations, and if he talks well, the emperor is wise, and if he talks badly, Li Bangyan defects to the enemy, and his deadly hat is detained.
Peace talks!
Zhao Huan made a decision on the spot.
The Jin people can't agree to all the conditions, but according to what Li Gang said, if they don't give it, I'm afraid that they will be accused by the Jin people of being insincere and not wasting time. The gold people asked for a price, we paid back the money on the spot, chose a prince and the prime minister to be hostages, brought a little gold and silver, raised money in the middle of the day, Li Bangyan negotiated, and bargained with the gold people.
What a lump of mud!
No one would have thought that Guo Yaoshi's remarks that the so-called fortress was breached from the inside were actually fulfilled from the emperor first.
In the Funing Palace, the princes all hung their heads and were silent, worried in their hearts, for fear that they would be unfortunate enough to be selected by the emperor to go to Jinying as a hostage. Although Qinzong has not yet been officially announced, the news of the prince's hostage has long been spreading, and the purpose of summoning the princes to the Funing Hall today is to select the right hostages.
King Yun stood listlessly in the center of the main hall, his eyes slightly closed, his face was gloomy, and he knew in his heart that he was in a catastrophe, and this time he couldn't escape Zhao Huan's magic hand no matter what.
Zhao Huan didn't directly order himself to be a hostage to avoid suspicion, how could the emperor retaliate against his brother? From Zhao Huan's gloating eyes, King Yun understood what despair was, and the emperor, who was very playful, was mentally torturing his prey.
Brothers settle accounts!
Zhao Huan is settling accounts with himself!
Zhao Huan was indeed gloating, looking at King Yun's helpless demeanor, how could he not be overjoyed?
For the first time!
This is the first time!
There are many firsts in Zhao Huan's life, and none of them are happy and comfortable.
He was still young when he had the title of prince for the first time, and he was ignorant, and he didn't know what it meant, but he only remembered that night his mother hugged him and cried all night; The first time he accepted the crown princess, he was stunned, he didn't like this wife, but how dare he disobey his father's will, he forced a smile; The first time he became an emperor, he was terrified, it was a terrible mess, and he didn't feel like he was on top at all.
But this first time is of great significance, it is about to remove the potential threat to his throne, can he not be excited?
This is the first time that Zhao Huan has stood tall as a winner.
Zhao Huan secretly exhaled a breath of turbidity and sighed, the world is unpredictable, sometimes the enemy is more trustworthy than the brother. Brothers have brotherly affection, but King Yun not only seeks his own position, but also wants his own life, and his siblings have become undying enemies. They are also enemies, but the Jin people do not seek their own position, nor do they want their own lives, they just want some gold and silver wealth, and they are actually good people compared to their siblings.
If you want to say that you can sit on the throne, you should thank the Jin people, if it weren't for their crazy invasion, would my father be able to take the throne? If he can't be the emperor, can King Yun be a hostage obediently? Neither! If it weren't for the emperor, his eldest brother would still be a soft bone in the eyes of his younger brothers today, just a nominal crown prince. just accosted a few words lukewarmly with himself, and then rushed to run to the palace to flatter.
It's time to get down to business.
Qin Zongchang sighed a long sigh, and said in a hoarse and sad tone: "Yesterday, Jin Kou agreed to negotiate peace, but there was a clause in the terms that the prince was hostage, and I would not agree to die, but Jin Kou would not forgive, and he had to be a hostage of the prince to negotiate peace, otherwise he would attack the city immediately." I'm helpless! I am the eldest brother, I have the responsibility to protect all my brothers, you are a brotherhood with me, and I am reluctant to send you into the mouth of the tiger! But now Jin Kou is raging, the capital is bumpy, and the country is ruined and the family is ruined in the brothers' thoughts. For the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, I can only endure the pain and cut my love. That prince is willing to share my worries and go to Jinying as a hostage? "Century
Qin Zong pretended to be very painful, he knew in his heart that there would never be that prince who took the initiative to hostage, just now he said that the words sent into the tiger's mouth were to deter, who wants to enter the tiger's mouth? Next, he only needs to nominate King Yun to go to Jinying, and it is estimated that all the brothers will raise their hands in agreement, this is the commonality, the dead friends are not the poor ones.
Born in the royal family, there is no brotherhood.
In the royal family, brothers are used to sell! Brothers are the stumbling blocks in the way! Brother is synonymous with a thorn in the eye!
Sure enough, no one took the initiative to ask for help, and things were developing towards the goal set by Qinzong, and if nothing else, King Yun would be a hostage.
Qin Zong was just about to say that I would recommend someone, when someone suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty! Brother Zhao is willing to go! ”
Immediately, everyone's eyes fell on Zhao Gou, and Zhao Gou was a little uncomfortable with different types of eyes, some were grateful, some admired, and some were shocked······ Only Chin Zong is painful.
What are you kid doing? Messed up a big scene directed by me! What's wrong with you? Don't you know that the gold camp is dangerous?
"Prince Kang, your courage is commendable, I am very pleased, but the golden camp is full of ghosts, how can you be a little child!"
Qinzong said kindly: "It's better to choose one of the older princes, and you can also suppress the scene in the golden camp and not lose face to the Great Song Dynasty!" ”
If King Kang just gets off the donkey, he will have all the face, and then integrate into Zhao Huan's rhythm, it will be time for King Yun to be unlucky. But King Kang stubbornly said: "Your Majesty! The younger brother is nineteen years old this year, and he is baptized early in the coming-of-age ceremony, how can he still be considered a child? The younger brother can ride a fierce horse, draw a hard bow, and his martial arts are not under the ordinary generals, and he will not lose face to the Great Song Dynasty if he goes to the golden camp! ”
Seeing that Qinzong's spearhead was still pointed at him, King Yun looked like he would never give up if he didn't kill himself, so he was in a hurry and shouted: "King Kang is loyal and righteous, and I and other brothers are ashamed!" Your Majesty, the minister thought that King Kang would be able to raise the prestige of our country in Jinying, and the ninth brother was the best candidate! ”
"Yes! Yes! The ninth brother is brave and loyal, he is the pillar of the Great Song Dynasty, and when he goes to the Jin camp, the Jin people will be afraid of his tiger might! ”
"Brother Jiu is the best among the people, and this trip will definitely make Jin Kou frightened!"
······
The princes praised King Kang one sentence on the left and one sentence on the right, and the ninth brother and nine brothers called endlessly, Zhao Huan was sad, and sighed in his heart: "It's over!" Things have been disturbed by this stunned blue! ”
Zhao Gou disdained the praise of the princes, but now he recognizes me as a brother, what did he do before? The fake is disgusting.
An impulse to escape from this false circle, he bowed down to Qin Zong and said, "Your Majesty! The younger brother will go and prepare, and he will be called to the golden camp at any time! With that, he turned and left.
Qin Zong looked depressed, and there were times when he miscalculated his wishful thinking. He had already set the tone of the peace talks with the ministers, and the hostages went to Jinying first, and by the way, he and Wanyan Zongwang pressed the price, called Jin brother, and the three northern towns resolutely refused to cede it. He just wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of King Yun, Bai Shizhong, and Li Bangyan, and reuse Li Gang. Who knew that Zhao Gou would be killed halfway through and get the calculated things out of his control. Now, if King Yun is forced to go to the Golden Camp, he will definitely not be able to escape the indiscriminate bombardment of saliva.
In any case, the tone has been set with the minister, the procedure still has to be done, the formality has to be done, and Qinzong has to personally set the wine to send off the hostages.
A glass of turbid wine, brothers say goodbye, and the monarch and ministers resign.
Zhang Bangchang was depressed, he drank the imperial wine with a sad face, looking like a prisoner going to the execution ground. are all part of the ministers, why does everyone think that Zhang Bangchang is suitable to be a hostage? The good old man who has been careful and conscientious in his work, and no one can offend him, ended up like this.
Zhao Gou is handsome and upright, his expression is resolute, he is like a general who is about to go to battle, and his sharp eyes are as if he were at home. He raised his glass and drank it all, looking up to the sky and shouting: "Grape wine glow-in-the-dark cup, if you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately." Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, and a few people came back to fight in ancient times. ”
The ministers who saw him off all praised King Kang's heroism and general's demeanor. Zhao Gou was actually very sad in his heart, he was about to go to disaster, but there was no prince to send him off, although he was also talking about false face, but they didn't even bother to perform falsely. If you die, you will die, anyway, in the palace, it is also a role that grandma does not love and uncle does not love, it is better to go to the country generously and leave a name in history.
Zhao Gou said firmly to Qin Zong: "Your Majesty! If the state wants to use troops or other actions against Jin, please don't worry about the safety of your brother. The general horse leather shroud, the prince sacrificed his life for the country, as long as the Zhao family lasts forever, why should the minister Zhao Gou regret this! ”
