094 The battle for the throne is unforgiving
094 The battle for the throne is unfavorable
Zhao Kuangyin knew that Zhao Guangyi deliberately shot Mrs. Hua Rui. Why is he so bold? - To seize power! Thinking of this, he was frightened, and immediately ordered someone to drive back to the palace. After walking for a while, he found that one of his henchmen, the eunuch Xiao Zhongzi, was missing. Without much thought, he rode back on his horse. But there were fewer and fewer people around him, and in the end, there was only one personal guard, Kong Chunqiu, left.
Zhao Kuangyin was thirsty, and his water bag ran out of water. Kong Chunqiu took off his water bag and handed it over, Zhao Kuangyin took a few sips, and felt that the world was spinning.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Kong Chunqiu asked urgently.
"Your water?" Zhao Kuangyin pointed to his nose and asked.
"Oops! Poisoned! Kong Chunqiu jumped off the horse and went to help the emperor.
Zhao Kuangyin got off the horse and sat under the tree panting heavily.
The strangest thing in the world has happened. Xiao Zhongzi led a team of people over, and a person who looked very similar to Zhao Kuangyin sat on a tall horse, pointed to the real Zhao Kuangyin's nose and asked, "Who is this?" ”
Xiao Zhongzi said loudly: "He is a fake emperor!" ”
"Fart!" Kong Chunqiu scolded and pulled out his sword to cut off Xiao Zhongzi's head. But as soon as the sword was raised, it was killed by random arrows.
Zhao Kuangyin passed out in a coma, and when he woke up, he was lying on the bed in a small dark room. Xiao Zhongzi is still by his side. Zhao Kuangyin grabbed Xiao Zhong by the collar and was about to beat him.
"Emperor, don't get excited, I'm here to save your children and grandchildren!" Xiao Zhongzi was not flustered at all.
Zhao Kuangyin understands everything, his younger brother Zhao Guangyi has already prepared everything, and the power has been seized. I'm trapped here, and that puppet emperor has to listen to my brother for everything.
"Little Zhongzi, I don't treat you well, why did you betray me?" Zhao Kuangyin let go, his fists still clenched tightly.
"Your Majesty, you can't blame me for this. I told you to guard against it a long time ago, but you didn't listen! Now that people are hairier than your waist, I don't listen to it, but there is only a dead end. For those of us who are slaves, whoever has thick thighs has to hold whomever he wants. "Xiao Zhongzi is telling the truth.
"There's some truth to what you're saying. He's not going to spare me. Tell me, how can I save the lives of my children and grandchildren? ”
"This is simple, as long as you sign the "Golden Edict", I think the new emperor will not be embarrassed for your princes."
When Zhao Kuangyin heard the words "Jin Kui's Edict", his face changed color, and he didn't speak for a long time.
There is a bullshit saying in "History of the Song Dynasty", saying that the reason why Zhao Kuangyin passed on the throne to his younger brother Zhao Guangyi instead of his son was because he was ordered by his mother, Empress Dowager Du. - This is the so-called "Golden Testament".
Comparatively speaking, Empress Dowager Du likes her youngest son Zhao Guangyi more, and she also made noise in Zhao Kuangyin's ears before her death. Zhao Kuangyin listened to his left ear and his right ear, and he didn't take it seriously at all.
Zhao Kuangyin didn't take it seriously, but Zhao Guangyi took it seriously.
Zhao Kuangyin's eldest son and third son died shortly after birth. But the second son Zhao Dezhao (951-979) and the fourth son Zhao Defang (959-981) grew up vigorously and grew up day by day. Zhao Kuangyin has been a martial arts practitioner since he was a child, and his body is very good, so natural death is not necessarily a matter of which day.
Zhao Guangyi was anxious and accelerated the pace of seizing power. Because of his brother's trust, he was in power, and by the end of Kaibao (976 AD), he had completely set aside Zhao Kuangyin. He didn't kill his brother immediately, but secretly locked him up and made him a fake emperor as a decoration. In order to become the emperor logically, he asked his brother to sign the "Golden Edict" for approval.
Zhao Kuangyin looked at the so-called "Golden Testament", and sure enough, it was signed by his mother, the Empress Dowager Du, but if he didn't sign it, it still couldn't take effect.
He gritted his teeth and said, "I just won't sign it, see how he becomes the emperor?" ”
Xiao Zhongzi sneered and said, "Your Majesty, do you need the signature of the emperor of the Chai family when you wear a yellow robe?" If you sign, others will also be emperors; If you don't sign, others will be emperors. It's just a formality. This form is gone, and your son can still be king, and this bloodline of yours can be preserved, so why not? ”
"I didn't see it, your young age is quite deep!"
"Isn't this all about learning from the emperor!"
Zhao Kuangyin thought for a long time and said loudly: "I want to see my brother, as long as I see one, I will sign; No, I'll never sign it. ”
Someone immediately went to pass the word. About an hour later, Zhao Guangyi really came. The two met through a hole in the wall, and only each other's faces could be seen. The four eyes were facing each other, and neither of them spoke.
In the end, it was Zhao Kuangyin who broke the silence and said: "Brother, for the sake of our compatriots, let Defang and them go!" ”
Zhao Guangyi said sincerely: "Big brother, don't worry, they are my own nephews. I'm not going to do anything to them! ”
"I have already signed the "Golden Testament". You can be your emperor in peace. No, no, I shouldn't have taken Madame Blossom for myself, I know you like her. ”
"Brother, don't say it. Talking about that woman at this time will hurt our brother's feelings. Zhao Guangyi actually dropped two crocodile tears.
Zhao Kuangyin gave away half of the signed "Golden Edict" and drew it back.
"Brother, I'll leave tonight. You can't be a starving ghost! ”
"Big brother, you can rest assured! Good wine and good food have been prepared long ago. ”
Zhao Guangyi personally pushed the wine and food out of the hole, which was particularly hearty, with more than a dozen kinds. Zhao Kuangyin sent the "Golden Edict" out of the cave.
Xiao Zhongzi was anxious and shouted, "Let me out!" Let me out! ”
Zhao Kuangyin laughed: "You can honestly eat a severed head meal with me!" You are my man, can he trust you? ”
"I've done so much for him, he can't finish the mill - kill the donkey?!"
"There are so many things you know, and there's only one way to die."
"To be a man, you have to be righteous, right?"
"What's my brother's name - Zhao Guangyi. His little righteousness has long been used up. Can it still be used on you, a little eunuch? Come on, little Zhongzi, let's drink! ”
Xiao Zhongzi was helpless, so he had to accompany Zhao Kuangyin to drink.
After drinking a glass of wine, Xiao Zhongzi fell to his knees with a thud: "Old Emperor, do you hate me?" ”
Zhao Kuangyin hurriedly helped him up, smiled and said, "I'm grateful to you." When I die, I still have someone to drink with me, and I still trust Xiaozhongzi the most. ”
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry for you!"
"It doesn't have much to do with you, it's just that I'm blind. It's not that I'm looking away, it's my fart. The throne below the stock is too tempting, and there are too many people who want to grab it! Even if my brother doesn't rob it, someone will rob it. I can be this emperor, my brother has made great efforts, without him, I can't be this emperor. In any case, the throne was not snatched by someone else. Guangyi, I still know this person, and he is very capable. He is not a good brother who can be a good emperor. ”
"Your Majesty, you are so open-minded!"
"It's useless to be open. Now my stomach can only hold alcohol. ”
The two were well fed and drunk. He stood up, spun around twice, and sat down on the stone bench again.
Zhao Kuangyin said with a straight face: "Xiao Zhongzi, you have to help me do one last thing." ”
Xiao Zhongzi patted his chest and said, "Your Majesty, whether it is on Dao Mountain or under the Sea of Fire, my Xiao Zhongzi frowns, and he is not a half-good man." ”
Xiao Zhongzi wanted to say "a good man", but he was a eunuch, and he could only be regarded as half a good man at most.
"It's not that serious. I thought about it, 'this thing' has to be known to future generations......"
"If we can't get out, how can future generations know?"
Zhao Kuangyin tore off a piece of yellow cloth from the placket, bit his finger and wrote:
Confined for several days, it is inevitable to die. forced the palace to snatch love, but it was a younger brother. When will the injustices of the ages be announced to the world? Woo woe! Woo woe!
"Would you like to sign this?" Zhao Kuangyin asked very seriously.
"Yes, of course." Xiao Zhongzi bit the middle finger of his right hand.
Zhao Kuangyin signed his name; Xiao Zhongzi signed his name very much - of course it was not his real name, just a code name.
"Your Majesty, do you think I'm a loyal minister?" Tadako asked seriously.
"Count, how else can I give you the name Xiao Zhongzi!?" Zhao Kuangyin also said seriously.
"Then I haven't lived in vain in this life, and future generations will definitely be—"
"I'll find out who you are."
It took a lot of effort for the two of them to move the stone table out of the way......
Finished the last bit of thought. The two drank their last glass of wine, a poisoned wine, of course, with peacocks in it. Gall bladder.
