Towering Bianjing City, gurgling Jinshui River.

The blossoming flowers of the past are long gone, but there is a little more twilight.

In the red hall of the Qinglou facing the street, the Qing people still hold the pipa and half-cover their faces, sing the green chant, and the literati in the audience clap their hands and applaud loudly, and from time to time they also throw out a few pieces of money to reward.

The tactful singing voice floated in the sky above Bianjing City and floated on the Jinshui River.

Skiff.

In this drunken twilight, he slowly drove into the Golden Water Gate.

No one knows how much shock this Ye Bian boat will cause to the Song Kingdom when it sails into the Jinshui Gate.

The soldiers guarding the Jinshui Gate, after seeing the old man lying on the side of the boat, stood obediently on the side one by one and gave a proper salute, and then sent the boat to the city.

Although the old man on the boat has removed all the officials, his residual power is still there.

As long as he is willing, with a move of his fingers, he can still crush them like ants.

Vertical arch hall.

Zhao Defang, who had not rested for three days and three nights, was in a daze in front of the dragon case with red eyes.

The guards in front of the palace informed the eunuchs who were waiting for Zhao Defang of the news.

The eunuch walked to Zhao Defang's side in small steps, and said with a beaming face: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, Zhao Pu and Zhao Xianggong have found it." ”

Zhao Defang came back to his senses slightly, his pupils suddenly dilated, and he stood up in ecstasy, "Really? Quickly invite Zhao Aiqing into the palace. ”

The eunuch bowed down and said with a smile: "Back to Your Majesty's words, Zhao Xianggong has been waiting at the gate of the palace for a long time. ”

Zhao Defang was ecstatic, and said with emotion: "Zhao Aiqing is worthy of being the pillar of my Great Song Dynasty, please invite him in......"

After saying this, Zhao Defang added: "You are going to the imperial dining room, let the imperial kitchen prepare some of Zhao Aiqing's favorite dishes and dishes, and when Zhao Aiqing arrives, serve them together."

I want to talk to Zhao Aiqing while eating. ”

Zhao Defang's courtesy to Zhao Pu can easily see that Zhao Defang attaches great importance to Zhao Pu.

These days.

The soldiers and horses of the Yan State went south, the Song State was in turmoil, and the country was in danger.

It really made Zhao Defang anxious.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, except for some unreliable ideas, basically did not play much role.

Now that Zhao Pu, the pillar of support, has finally arrived, Zhao Defang subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

When the elderly Zhao Pu stepped into the vertical arch hall wearing a cloth robe and robe, Zhao Defang regained his majesty as emperor.

He sat high on the dragon chair, unattainable.

The dragon table in front of him was full of food.

There are all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas.

Under the dragon case, there is a long square table, and there are some tempting delicacies of the mountains and seas on the table.

Zhao Pu glanced at the delicacies of the mountains and seas on the table, and did not have much expression, he bowed in Zhao Defang's gradually cracked smile, "Foreign Minister Zhao Pu, see His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty." ”

"Minister?!"

The smile on Zhao Defang's face suddenly froze, he slowly stood up, and said tremblingly: "Zhao Pu...... What did you just say...... Say it again......"

Zhao Pu was neither humble nor arrogant: "Foreign Minister Zhao Pu, see His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty." ”

"You! You! ”

Zhao Defang looked at Zhao Pu in disbelief, his fingers trembled and pointed at Zhao Pu for a long time, and finally sat down on the dragon chair with a butt, holding back the tears of grievance in his eyes, and roared in a deep voice, "Zhao Pu, even you betrayed me and voted for Yan Guo?" ”

At this moment, Zhao Defang no longer had the joy just now, but was a little more desolate.

Zhao Pu said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Good birds choose trees to perch, and good ministers serve the lord." ”

Zhao Defang gritted his teeth and asked, "You mean, I am a faint monarch and am not worthy of your assistance?" ”

Zhao Pu shook his head slightly, and said, "Don't dare, the minister just saw the bear's paw bird's nest on His Majesty's table, and he felt it." His Majesty has no worries about food and clothing in Bianjing City, and his meals are luxurious. In Bianjing, the officials drank and had fun, kept prostitutes for fun, and were drunk and gold-obsessed.

A few people care, the state capital hundreds of miles away, the black-hearted county prefect, the tax increase has been increased for three years, forcing the people to go hungry.

How many people care, the country will be broken, and the mountains and rivers will perish?

King Yan has hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Jiangning Mansion, and he can go north at any time.

Chen Bing, the king of Beiliang, has hundreds of thousands, and has already taken the entire Taiyuan Mansion, and within two days, he will be able to kill Bianjing City.

King Dali took the entire Sichuan and Shu, and within four days he could lead his troops and horses to Bianjing City.

Nearly a million soldiers and horses can enter Bianjing City at any time.

At this time, most of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were eating, drinking, and having fun.

Your Majesty, tell me, how should this country be assisted? ”

Zhao Defang's face turned red when he was questioned by Zhao Pu, and he couldn't say a word.

Mountains and rivers are about to be shattered.

At this time, he was in a hurry, probably only him, Zhao Defang.

When Yang Qibing came to the city, except for a few people who were truly loyal and patriotic, who would accompany Zhao Defang to the funeral, the vast majority of civil and military officials would probably take refuge in Yang Qi, and then continue the previous way of living.

Anyway, in this day and age, intellectuals are a rarity.

Yang Qi must use them.

Zhao Defang sat on the dragon chair decadently, looking depressed.

After Zhao Pu bowed again, he said loudly: "The foreign minister's envoy to the Song State this time is to quell the conflict between the two countries. ”

Zhao Defang slowly raised his head, glanced at Zhao Pu, and said decadently: "Quell the two countries' fighting?" Hehe......"

Zhao Defang smiled sarcastically: "Yang Yansi would have such a good heart? Wouldn't he want me to follow the example of Chai and give way to him? I can tell you in no uncertain terms. That's impossible. ”

Zhao Pu shook his head, and told Zhao Defang Yang Qi's three conditions without being salty.

After Zhao Defang heard this, he said with an annoyed face: "Let me go to the emperor and be demoted to the king?" This is the difference between giving me a seat. I will never agree. ”

Zhao Pu shook his head with a wry smile, and said sincerely: "Although the foreign minister is no longer an official of the Song Kingdom, as an old minister, he still has some affection. The foreign minister had to remind His Majesty once that this was probably the only chance for the Song Kingdom.

missed this opportunity, Song Guo was afraid that he would really be removed. ”

Zhao Defang stood up angrily and shouted at Zhao Pu: "You get out of here!" This is my court of the Great Song Dynasty, how can you speak?! ”

Zhao Pu raised his hand, arched his hand, flicked his sleeve robe, and left the vertical arch hall without looking back.

"Bang!"

Zhao Pu just walked out of the vertical arch hall with his front feet.

The angry Zhao Defang swept all the dishes on the dragon case to the ground, and then roared angrily: "It's all bastards!" ”

Zhao Puer listened to Zhao Defang's angry voice behind him, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a sneering smile.

Without contrast, there is no harm.

Yang Qi and Zhao Defang are really worlds apart.

One is like the sun that dominates the nine heavens and shines for thousands of miles.

A bright moon that is still holding a pipa and half covering its face.

How can the bright moon compete with the sun?

Zhao Pu strode away from the Vertical Arch Palace.

Out of the palace.

He did not hide his whereabouts, which naturally aroused the ideas of many well-intentioned people.

Among them is Ding Wei.

When Ding Wei and others learned that Zhao Pu, who had disappeared for less than a month, reappeared in the palace.

Immediately, all the courtiers were summoned and rushed to the palace to ask to see Zhao Defang.

The purpose is to talk about what Zhao Pu and Zhao Defang talked about.

If Zhao Pu wants to be reinstated, then what will happen to these people?

However.

When they entered the palace and learned the truth of the matter.

All of them were dumbfounded.

Even the old ministers of the three dynasties like Zhao Pu voted for Yang Qi, which was undoubtedly like a bombshell, and there was an uproar inside and outside the government and the opposition.

After the uproar.

Naturally, it was inevitable that Yang Qi's three conditions were discussed.

The final outcome of the discussion.

It is completely different from Zhao Defang's reply to Zhao Pu.

Three conditions.

After deliberation among the courtiers, they agreed to all of them.

And, after some persuasion from them.

Zhao Defang was also forced to agree to the matter.

It was less than three hours after Zhao Pu entered the palace before.

Zhao Pu reappeared in the Vertical Arch Hall.

This time, he was specially sent back by Zhao Defang.

Zhao Defang on the dragon chair has long lost the power of the emperor and looks like a defeated rooster.

"The three conditions of the Yan Kingdom...... I agreed......"

Zhao Pu didn't expect that the ending once again made Yang Qi guess right.

Originally, he thought that he would have to spend a lot more time, but he didn't expect that the imperial court would compromise so easily.

Suddenly, Zhao Pu had a kind of indisputable thought in his heart.

He also began to understand some of the words that Yang Qi had said on the river before.

If Zhao Defang's people are forced to change from Yang Qi to a foreigner, will the result be much the same?

At that time, what dignity does the man of the Han family have at all.

Zhao Pu finally understood what Yang Qi had done.

So the thought of hating him in his heart was just a flash.

Instead, there is a ruthlessness that punishes the younger who make mistakes.

Zhao Pu arched his hand slightly at Zhao Defang, and said nonchalantly: "Since your country has agreed to my Yan country's request, then please ask the lord of your country, set up the carriage and horses, go to Jiangning Mansion, and show your submission to Your Majesty."

And from now on, go to the emperor's name and claim to be the king. ”

Following.

Early morning.

It's just dawn.

The soldiers of the forbidden army guarding the city of Bianjing, as well as the dragon guards at all levels, guarded Zhao Defang's frame and left the city of Bianjing in a mighty way.

Zhao Defang left, and the people of Bianjing City were a little panicked.

The people thought that Yang Qi was going to fight, and Zhao Defang fled.

So one by one, after Zhao Defang left, those who dragged their families and mouths also ran out of the city.

Time.

The bustling Bianjing City was completely in chaos.

If it weren't for Kaifeng Mansion Yin coming out to clarify the rumors, I'm afraid that half of the people in Bianjing City would have to escape.

After Zhao Defang's frame left Bianjing City, he hurried all the way.

Under the starry night, after several days, he arrived outside Jiangning Mansion.

The soldiers of the forbidden army were blocked outside the Jiangning Mansion.

Leaving Zhao Defang behind, he took a group of ministers and entered Jiangning Mansion.

Inside the Jiangning Mansion.

The Southern Tang Palace, which was once burned by the flames of war, has undergone some repairs.

Still magnificent.

After Yang Qi arrived in Jiangning Mansion, he has been living in the Southern Tang Palace.

Moreover, when he settled in Jiangning Fucheng, he specially changed the name of this big city.

Jinling.

Also known as Nanjing.

It belongs to Nanjing, the companion capital of the Yan Kingdom.

Towering Jinling City.

Its level of luxury is not inferior to that of Bianjing.

Even more extravagant than Bianjing.

The glittering royal palace.

Tens of thousands of soldiers guarded it.

Inside the Royal Palace.

The largest inside the main hall.

The warriors of Zamahe stood guard on both sides of the gate.

Yang Qi was wearing a dragon robe and sat on the dragon chair.

Below him were Lu Duan, Yang Er, Yang San and others.

It seems to be to witness this special moment today.

Chen Lin came over from the south and accompanied Yang Qi.

When all the etiquette is ready.

Yang Qi nodded at Chen Lin beside him.

Chen Lin shook off the dust, and shouted in a sharp voice: "Zhao Defang, the lord of the Xuan Song Kingdom, come to see you." ”

It didn't take long.

The humiliated Zhao Defang and other Song ministers, under the guidance of Zhao Pu, entered the main hall.

After Zhao Defang entered the palace, he bowed his hand in humiliation, "Waiwang Zhao Defang, meet you...... Meet ......"

Zhao Defang hesitated for a long time, but still shouted those two words.

"Your Majesty!"

Your Majesty.

There are too many to represent.

It represents that from this day onwards, the Great Song Dynasty will cease to exist and will be replaced by a vassal named the Song Kingdom.

It represents the Zhao royal family, from now on, it will no longer exist, and in the future, there will only be the Zhao royal family on this land.

It represents, another royal family named Yang rising.

It represents an empire called Dayan, which will henceforth be powerful in all directions.

It represents the end of an era and the beginning of an era.

In short, it represents too much, too many things.

None of those present were happy about it.

Even from now on, the Yan Kingdom will dominate the world, and the monarchs and ministers of the Yan Kingdom do not feel much joy.

A lesson from the previous car, a teacher from the back.

Today's Song Kingdom is hard to guarantee that it will not become the Yan Kingdom of his day.

They have many, many things to do.

Yang Qi got up slowly, he didn't taunt Zhao Defang, nor did he despise Zhao Defang.

In his eyes, Zhao Defang's majesty.

It represents more than just compliance.

What's more, a responsibility that originally belonged to the Zhao royal family fell on his head.

This responsibility is to rejuvenate the nation.

Once upon a time when reciting a quote from a great man.

Yang Qi couldn't feel the heavy responsibility.

It wasn't until this moment that he finally felt it.

This famous sentence is: read for the rise of China.

What he can say at this moment is to fight for the rise of China.

Let China stand on top of the world.

At this moment, this responsibility will fall on his shoulders.

The heavy responsibility made Yang Qiyi seem to be a lot more mature in an instant, he straightened his waist, slowly raised his hand, and said to Zhao Defang: "Flatten......"

After Zhao Defang straightened up, Yang Qi had already sat on the dragon chair again.

Yang Qi glanced at Chen Lin beside him.

Chen Lin understood, took two steps forward, took an edict from the dragon case, and read it out in the hall: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: Emperor Song came to surrender today, sparing tens of thousands of people in the world from the suffering of war."

I remembered the merits of Emperor Song, and specially named Emperor Song as the king of Song and the lord of the Song Kingdom.

Since then, the west of the Yellow River and the north of the Yangtze River have been the territory of the Song Kingdom.

For generations, the Song Kingdom was a vassal of the Yan State.

The Song State shall not have more than 200,000 permanent soldiers and horses.

In the event of an invasion by a foreign enemy, the Song State had permanent troops and horses, and it was necessary to obey the dispatch of the Yan State.

Since then, the world has respected Yan Guo!

Chin this! ”
