Chapter 30: The Black Guard
Zhao Xia, walking behind Zhao Yin, was the first to express her support. Many wavering ministers also followed and stood behind Zhao Yin. Those who did not want to go with the flow and chose to advance and retreat with the monarch were behind Xiangbang Zhao Bao and Gongzi Cheng, and they looked at this group of chaotic ministers and thieves with angry faces.
Zhao Yin, glancing at the people behind him, said to Zhao Jun: "Your Majesty, there are still many people who oppose you. ”
Zhao Yong was silent.
"Well, you are willing to die for the king." Zhao Yin faced the people who supported Zhao Jun, and his voice seemed to be an unjust ghost from hell, and said, "You guys go to hell together!" By the way, I brought a message to the ancestors for me, I asked you to go down. ”
Zhao Bao, standing with his head held high, said generously: "It is enough to die for the country." ”
Gongzi Cheng is also unyielding, "It's just death, let's do it!" ”
Zhao Yin gestured to Zhao Xia behind him with his gaze. Zhao Xia nodded, looked outside the palace, and shouted, "Someone." ”
The palace gates are still closed. Zhao Xia shouted again: "Someone." ”
'Squeak, squeak', the palace door was pushed open. Guards in armor poured in like a tidal wave. The sound of armor, footsteps, and the clash of swords are mixed together to create a thrilling melody.
The guards drew their blades in unison, the tip of their swords pointed at the minister.
Zhao Yin saw that the situation was completely under his control, and smiled proudly: "Your Majesty, you didn't expect it!" Except for the two envoys of the palace guard, it is your people, and the other people are all placed in the palace by me. ”
Zhao Yong, staring at him coldly, said, "The strategy of widows and immigrants on the border." Also, the eyeliner you arranged for me to leak out."
"Thanks to your strategy of defending the border, you have angered everyone, but you have done me a great favor. Do you want to know who told me the news. Zhao Yin's face was arrogant, and he said softly: "But I won't tell you who he is." ”
"The Qin State attacked my Hexi, and General Zhao was killed in battle, which was also from your handwriting." Zhao Yong, looking into his eyes, asked.
When Zhao Yin saw that Jun Shang asked about this, his heart moved, and he replied: "Yes!" He deserves to die. Zhao Fei's ability is not as good as mine, but his official position is higher than mine, and he presses me everywhere. Why, just because he is a clan relative. ”
Zhao Yong gritted his teeth and said, "So, you told the Qin people about the defense map of the Lishi Fortress." The Qin people, with this sneak attack on Lishi, led to a great defeat of our army. Zhao and tens of thousands of soldiers were killed in battle. ”
"Not bad." Zhao Yin saw that Jun Shang talked about this matter, and said a few more words, "Xianjun, vainly trying to challenge the Qin State and the Qi and Wei coalition forces with the power of one country. It's just confusing! ”
When Zhao Yong learned the truth, his body trembled, and he took a few steps back to stabilize his foot. Zhao was at war with Qi Wei in Hedong and Qin in Hexi. Zhao State, the national strength is not comparable to the Three Kingdoms, and at the same time, it is caught in the east-west war. In the First Battle of Hexi, the Qin State occupied Lin Cheng and Lishi, and the Zhao State lost many generals such as the commander Zhao and General Sima. In the first battle of Hedong, Zhao lost its main general Han Ju and several cities. The fiasco of things and things, the blow to the ambitious Zhao Suhou Yu, was the most fatal. Zhao Suhou Yu also contracted a disease due to the war. However, Zhao Suhou was arrogant and unwilling to admit defeat. Before his death, he united with Korea and launched the Battle of Xiangling of Wei, the purpose of which was to swear to the vassal states that Zhao would not give in.
Zhao Yong thought of all kinds of past events, but his heart was a heart-rending pain. If it weren't for Zhao Yin's selfish interests, how could so many people pay for it. The price is too heavy.
"Okay, that's it, I've said enough." Zhao Yin, staring at Zhao Jun's sad expression, said, "Although you have wisdom. But it lacks the courage and courage of the ancestors. If you have another three or five years, you may be able to balance me. Your Majesty can also revive the majesty of your ancestors. What a pity! Your Majesty, you're in a hurry. Zhao Yin's laughter stopped abruptly, and he gave an order with his back to the guard, and said with a hideous face: "Everyone, with your loyalty, accompany the monarch, and go to hell!" ”
The human heart, what a strange thing. Once someone decides to be loyal to you, even if it means sacrificing his own life, he will give it without hesitation. The courtiers bowed to Zhao Yong. In their eyes, there was no fear, only grief and indignation.
"Your Excellency, your minister, go first." Zhao Bao, facing the king, bowed three times, stood with his head held high, not afraid of life and death, "Do it!" ”
Zhao Bao thought about it, and the ancestor couldn't help but cry. Fortunately, he died for the king, and he died without regrets. Before he died, his gaze probed towards Zhao Yong. He originally thought that the king would fall into an extreme panic because of this change. However, Zhao Yong was in a quiet state of mind, not alarmed, and completely had the momentum of Mount Tai collapsing in front of him without changing his color.
"Do it." Zhao Yin also has high respect for this type of person. While he was respectful, he also had a hint of fear. Because he understands that these people, if they are not used for themselves, they cannot be allowed to live in this world. If you are merciful and let them go, you will surely bring disaster to yourself in the future. After a while, Zhao Yin did not hear the sound of killing. Zhao Yin used Yu Wei to intimidate the guards, "You guys, don't do it quickly." ”
The guard stood still, like a stone pillar.
Zhao Xia walked behind Zhao Yin and said in a low voice: "Father, something is wrong." ”
Zhao Yin also felt that something was wrong, as for that point, he had a spectrum in his heart. Because he understood that this group of guards didn't do anything because the young man in front of him was Zhao Jun, and they were afraid of the majesty of the monarch. At this moment, a round of applause rang out from the side door of the main hall. I saw a group of black-clothed armor soldiers pouring out of the side door of the main hall. The black-clothed guards controlled the palace guards with lightning speed. Facing the black-clothed guards who poured out, Zhao Yin was also shocked.
Black-clad armor, dressed in soft armor, dressed in black, with a bronze face, and holding a long sword. The black-clothed guard is the leader of Zhao Guonan, and he has the courage to fight against ten. In the past, Marquis Zhao Su seized the land to quell the rebellion, and it was because of this black-clothed armor that he defeated Gongzi Ji and Gongzi Fan, who tried to seize the throne. After quelling the rebellion, this black-clad soldier disappeared without a trace. Some people even believe that the black-clothed warrior has already been secretly dismissed by Xianjunyu. Who knew that this armor had been hidden in the palace.
Han Zhong walked out and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the minister's escort is late." ”
"Da Ling, you came too soon. If it weren't for that, the widow would have become a fish on the board, to be slaughtered. Zhao Houyong saw that God was still caring for him, and said to the shocked national captain: "National captain, it's not your wonderful performance, the widow didn't know that there would be so many people... Against yourself. And also... So many loyal and patriotic people. ”
"You..." Zhao Yin was originally a smart person, and he understood in an instant, and said with surprise in his eyes: "It turns out that you have been prepared." ”
"Without adequate preparation, how dare a widow ask you to blame." When Zhao Yong said this, his tone was slightly solemn. Nian Zai once had meritorious service to Zhao Guo's Jiangshan Sheji, he originally wanted to keep him alive, after all, Zhao Yin's contribution to Zhao Guo could not be erased. Now, his eyes were a little melancholy, and he said: "If someone comes, the rebel will be taken down by the widow." ”
"No", everyone responded in unison.
"Captain, what else do you have to say?" Zhao Yong stared at Zhao Yin's deep eyes seriously, in the face of the situation in front of him, would the other party give up struggling, or would he fight to the death.
Zhao Yin's face was full of grief and indignation, and he asked, "Your Majesty, when are you..."
Zhao Yong said, "Widow, before you entered the palace, you had already ordered people to suppress your people. ”
"What, from the beginning, you..." Zhao Yin's mood fluctuated, and it was difficult to be calm. In an instant, he sank down and pondered the truth of what Zhao Yong said. When entering the palace, Zhao Yin also realized that the sky of Zhao was about to change. However, when he walked into the palace, he didn't find any clues along the way, let alone see a major change in the pattern of the palace. The guards guarding the Zhao Palace are still the eyeliner they have planted. In an instant, how could his own people be quietly suppressed. Taking a step back, Zhao Yong had already controlled the situation, so everything just now was intentional on his part, and his purpose was to...
"Have you guessed yet?" Zhao Yong's eyes lit up when he saw him, and his voice floated again, and said, "The reason why the widow disposed of the Handan order first was to buy time for Tu Yi and the eunuch order. After that, I didn't choose to do it to you in advance, just to witness... Everything in front of you. ”
The people standing behind Zhao Yin, facing the eyes thrown by the monarch, were all shameless. Zhao Yin was stunned for a while, the young man in front of him, he was really only fifteen years old?
At this time, Tu Duwei strode in and said, "Your Majesty, I have already controlled the situation in the palace. ”
Zhao Yong nodded and said, "Tu Duwei did a good job." ”
Treason? Conniving at subordinates to make a fortune? Casting weapons privately? Now, committing a rebellion? No matter from that point of view, Zhao Yin committed a capital crime of great rebellion. At this point, Zhao Yin should feel fear and kneel and beg for mercy. However, Zhao Yin not only did not kneel and beg for mercy, nor did he show the slightest fear. I saw him, looking at Zhao Yong, those eyes contained very complex emotions. Suddenly, Lieutenant Zhao Yin laughed loudly. Everyone was shocked, and he could still laugh.
"Your Majesty, I underestimated your ability. All right! I admit that you will be an extraordinary monarch. Zhao Yin, looking around at everyone, his tone was quite relaxed, "However, you forget, I am a national lieutenant and control the soldiers and horses of the whole city." In Handan City, there are still my men and horses. The scales of victory are still on my side. Your Majesty, you are a hundred secrets after all! ”
A blue flame flew into the sky above Handan. Immediately after, I heard the sound of hooves outside like thunder, and the sound of killing shook the sky. As the shouts outside grew louder and louder, the sound got closer and closer. The courtiers were restless and disorganized.
A black-clothed guard walked in angrily and said, "Your Majesty, it's not good, there is a large group of soldiers coming straight to the palace. ”
Courtiers, there was a commotion.
"The rebels are about to come in, what are we going to do?"
"Run! It's hard to really wait here to die. ”
"Do you hear that? My people, it's getting moving. Lieutenant Zhao Yin twisted his neck, and his bones made a sound. The voice was cold and said to everyone: "I will give you another chance to choose again." People who don't want to die, are behind me. ”
Zhao Bao reprimanded in a cold voice: "I am an eight-foot man, why not be afraid of life and death." ”
Tu Yi also looked nervously outside the palace, faced Zhao Yong, and said, "Your Majesty, let me go out to fight!" As soon as these words came out, others also swore that Yu Zhao Jun would advance and retreat together, and live and die together.
"Your Majesty, you better give up!" Zhao Yin jokingly said: "Wait for me to be Zhao Jun and make you an obedient king." However, to his surprise, his words did not bring a powerful impact to Zhao Yong's heart. Zhao Yong's peace and openness seemed to announce him, give up! Don't be struggling uselessly? You've already lost.
Zhao Yong's gaze had been quietly watching him, observing the slightest expression on the other party's face. After a little silence, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh when he saw that the other party's face was engraved with unwillingness to fail. Zhao Yin didn't think that this long sigh would be a good signal, almost making him doubt himself, and he failed again. Thinking of this, Zhao Yin shuddered, was shocked in his heart, and blurted out: "Could it be that the situation in the city is also under control?" ”
"Zhao Xia's fortune is only three hundred stones, why did the widow let him enter the palace." Zhao Yong's voice was like a sharp blade, stabbing into his heart fiercely, "General Lou Slow, you have already controlled your henchmen in the city. ”
"Listen, the sound outside has stopped."
Zhao Yin saw that his expression was natural, not like he was pretending to be calm. But in a short moment, that failed look was fleeting, because he remembered that Lou was in Daidi on the order of Zhao Jun. However, Zhao Yong's next sentence brought him into the ice cave again: "A month ago, the widow had secretly recalled him. At this moment, the city defense is being garrisoned for the widows. ”
"There are still 50,000 soldiers stationed outside the city, and I still have a glimmer of life." Zhao Yin showed a sly smile, so far, there is only the battle of the trapped beasts, "The fireworks sent out just now are also a signal for the siege of the city." ”
Zhao Yong stared at his eyes, the corners of his lips twitched slightly, and he said indifferently: "What day is today." ”
Zhao Yin thought silently, and said dumbly: "The garrison has changed guards." ”
"Not bad." Zhao Yong, seeing that his expression was gloomy, gave him another heavy blow, "On your way to the palace, I have already sent the deputy envoy of the palace guard, holding a letter arrow, to transfer your people to Handan." Zhao Yin's face was miserable and he sat on the ground. He had been plotting for more than ten years, but he lost to a fifteen-year-old child. Not only did he lose, but he lost a lot.
"You're wondering how the widows managed to keep the situation firmly in their own hands." Zhao Yong saw him looking up at himself, obviously wanting to know the answer. Zhao Yong stared at his lost eyes and said word by word: "Because you are too stupid." Widow, send you a word, don't think that just because you are smart, everyone is a fool. ”
Zhao Yin raised his head, met Zhao Jun's gaze, and said with a miserable smile: "You are the winner, you can say anything." ”
"Widow, say you're too stupid, you still don't accept it." Zhao Yong, penetrating his thoughts, let him understand where he was stupid, and said loudly: "The eyeliner you planted next to the widow has long been aware of it. The reason why the widow didn't clean them up was to wait for today. However, because of their existence, the widow can lure you into the game. ”
"Looks like I'm underestimating you." Zhao Yin's face was pale, struggling to support his body. He prides himself on being smart and has been planning secretly for so many years. His forbearance was not even detected by the Marquis of Zhao Su, who was the hero of the first generation. Unexpectedly, this young man let himself approach the abyss of death step by step.
He was not reconciled, how could he lose to a little doll.
Zhao Xia saw that the general trend was gone, and she was not resisting, so she grabbed her hands and shouted: "Father, stop it!" We lost, we lost. ”
Zhao Yin roared, "I won't lose, I won't lose." The one who loses, it won't be me, it won't..."
Zhao Yin snatched the long sword from the guard's hand and ran towards Zhao Yong with the sword.
The sudden change made the ministers shocked and wanted to step forward to stop it, but it was too late. Seeing this, Mu Jian rushed over selflessly, blocked in front of Zhao Yong, and shouted, "Your Excellency, be careful." ”
"I have to admit, you're amazing. I'll admit, I lost. But I'm not losing to you, I'm losing to God. Zhao Yin held his sword and approached Zhao Yong step by step. Looking around at the expressions of the ministers in the palace, he was completely defeated. If you lose, there is no way back. Rather than being humiliated behind you, it is better to know about your life as soon as possible. So, Zhao Yin raised his long sword and stabbed at his body. Zhao Yin took three steps forward before he collapsed in a pool of blood. Before he died, he had the last strength and said with difficulty: "As a reward, I will prostrate in front of you." ”
