Chapter 619: Chaotic Situation
"Young Master!"
Steward Wang ordered to go down and pack his luggage, and everyone looked at Steward Wang suspiciously, but they didn't know why they did it. It wasn't until he said that Zhao Gou told him that everyone silently packed up. When Steward Wang packed up, he saw that Zhao Gou had already returned home, and he was still waiting for whether it was really confirmed.
Zhao Gou nodded and said with a smile: "Steward Wang, have things been settled?" ”
"It's already arranged!" Steward Wang replied, "Young Master, are we really going to move out?" ”
"Not bad!" Zhao Gou smiled, "Since it has been arranged, then we will leave today and go to Youzhou." ”
"Youzhou?"
Steward Wang was stunned for a moment, and then he was a little relieved, he knew that Zhao Gou was named the 'King of Yan', and Youzhou was also the land of Yanjing. As for the mansion, I am afraid that it is the secluded capital mansion where the generals of the Liao army lived in the past. It's just that he didn't expect to leave today, which made him a little unexpected.
Although the emperor fell out with him and fell out of favor. However, everyone knows that there is something wrong with this. Now that Zhao Gou said it himself, he immediately set off for Yanjing, and everyone was surprised. Because this is a signal, a signal from Zhao Gou's complete fall from grace.
As long as you leave the capital, then everything is over. Since then, what happened in the capital has nothing to do with Zhao Gou, he is just the king of Yan. If something happened in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, he had to deal with it. Because he is the supreme commander of the sixteen states of Yanyun, and he is also the prince of the town guarding the side.
Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty gave Zhao Gou the sixteen states of Yanyun, which was unprecedentedly large and had a small population, but occupied an extremely important geographical location. If Zhao Gou is unwilling to obey the orders of the imperial court, with his prestige and ability, he is fully capable of dominating one side in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.
Therefore, after Zhao Gou retreated, a shocking wave was set off in the court, and everyone argued about this matter, only Zhao Yougong, the king of Chu, remained silent from beginning to end and did not participate in the court dispute. Because he knows the reason for this better than anyone else, but he can't mention it to anyone.
With the departure of Zhao Gou, the situation above the court has changed. Those who originally supported Zhao Gou also began to change direction, among which Zhao Yougong was the first to reprimand Zhao Gou's crimes. The Shangshu of the Criminal Department, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites and others were shocked by Zhao Yougong's behavior, which also caused Zhao Yougong to go further and further away from them, and in the end they were strangers, and even suppressed by Zhao Yougong.
A force of Zhao Yougong, the king of Chu, and a force of the crown prince Zhao Huan were formed above the court. As for Zhao Gou's force, after losing its backbone, it is no longer a climate. Wang Yun, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was constantly suppressed, Pan Lianggui, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was also implicated, Zong Ze, Li Gang and others were also suppressed one after another, and gradually lost their position in the court, and even lost their right to speak.
The current situation is so that those people can't understand it, and they can't understand it. Song Huizong stood by from beginning to end, and had no intention of interfering. The crown prince Zhao Huan has been reused, as if he is about to inherit the trend of unification. Zhao Yougong, the king of Chu, still has no intersection with Zhao Huan.
If the king of Chu represented Zhao Gou in the past, now he is no longer so, since Zhao Gou's departure, he and Zhao Gou's previous forces have become mortal enemies, attacking and suppressing each other. The situation in the DPRK and China was very chaotic, and the crown prince Zhao Huan also resurrected, which was unexpected.
However, everyone knows that this is a signal, that is, the crown prince Zhao Huan is deeply respected by the emperor, but Zhao Gou, the king of Yan, has completely fallen out of favor. Today's crown prince Zhao Huan is even more majestic, like a general who has returned triumphantly, and he is proud of the spring breeze.
The situation in Bianjing was a thing of the past for Zhao Gou, and he didn't care about it anymore. Of course, that's another story.
Song Huizong sent a decree to Zhao Gou to leave the capital and go to the fiefdom, which caused a lot of discussion in the court, but he was shocked by his words and made everyone shut up. Although Zhao Gou was expelled from the capital, he had the generals of the sixteen states of Yanyun in his hands, and he was also a force that should not be underestimated.
After the crown prince Zhao Huan was stunned for a long time, he sneered fiercely, and secretly thought: "Let you escape for the time being, you have lost the qualification to compete with me for the crown prince." If I inherit the throne, then your end will come, those generals who follow you, I will clean them up when the time comes, and now is not the time! ”
The cold gaze stared at Zhao Gou's departing back in a daze, but his gaze was seen by Zhao Yougong and the emperor. Zhao Yougong clutched his fist and held back; Song Huizong glanced at it lightly, and withdrew his gaze without saying anything.
Prince Zhao Huan's body trembled, and he hurriedly restrained the cruel gaze in his eyes, quickly lowered his head, and just stood like this.
Originally, the situation above the court was clear, but because of this incident, the whole situation was chaotic. Originally, Zhao Gou was the leader of the court to preside over the major affairs of the court, and the power leaned towards the government and the opposition, and all the officials in the court were disobedient. Anyone who disobeys, no matter how high the official or how noble the status, will be punished as a crime.
Due to the existence of Zhao Gou, the suppression of some well-intentioned people in the DPRK and China did not dare to take any action even if they filled their pockets. Just because I don't know when Zhao Gou will appear in his house, he will be speechless at that time, and he will be ruined. Now that Zhao Gou has left, the situation above the court is chaotic again.
Even though Zhao Yougong, the king of Chu, is in charge, he is just cold and unable to dominate the overall situation. In addition, when Zhao Gou was expelled, he did not say anything and remained silent, so he was different from the past, which also made the hearts of those who were attached to Zhao Gou cold and had a gap in their hearts.
With Zhao Gou's departure, the court became chaotic again, and these were none of Zhao Gou's affairs. Now, he has put on his suits and gone out of the city with the rest of the people, heading straight for Youzhou. When the early dynasty ended, when Wang Yun, Pan Lianggui and others came, they had already gone to the empty building, leaving no traces.
"Emperor Qi, King Yan has already left with his whole family!"
"I know, you go down!" Song Huizong's face did not change, he replied lightly, looked at Zhao Yougong again, and said, "I know that you have a lot of unhappiness in your heart, but these are all things that must be done. Now that you have inherited, the day will be rewarded. ”
Zhao Yougong smiled bitterly and said, "If I had known this earlier, I would rather not know!" ”
Zhao Gou was sent to the fiefdom, which is a kind of expulsion, she can't do anything, she can only watch the development of the situation silently, and the most important thing is that he has to make up for it, this kind of thing really makes him a little breathless, but he has to do it.
"I know you've been wronged!"
Song Huizong was not annoyed or angry, he knew the bitterness in Zhao Yougong's heart, and he also knew what kind of situation he was facing later, but sometimes he was helpless. Because of this, Song Huizong called Zhao Yougong to comfort him.
If it is about feelings, Song Huizong is not inferior, but he is the king of a country, and he has to do this for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty. Zhao Yougong also knows that it is precisely knowing that he is in a dilemma, if he doesn't know anything, he won't take care of it so much, and he can only do so for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty in the future.
