The crown prince Zhao Huan was resentful, as the eldest son of the emperor, he was also named the acting king. If he hadn't done everything he could, and used his mother's power, I'm afraid he would still be the acting king, not the "crown prince" that everyone praises. In his mind, Zhao Gou has always been a threat to his throne, bent on getting rid of him.

If it weren't for Zhao Gou's birth, Song Huizong would not have ignored him and turned a blind eye to him; If it weren't for Zhao Gou's repeated miraculous achievements, Song Huizong would not have attached so much importance to it, making him, the eldest son of the emperor, lose face. As the eldest son of the emperor, Zhao Huan is far from Zhao Gou, the only fortunate thing is that he is the crown prince, Zhao Gou is still the king of the county, even if he has the merit of pacifying Fang La, it still can't be compared, because most of the ministers in the court are standing by his side.

Zhao Huan, Gao Yu and the others made a look, and then looked at Tong Guan on the side, he also nodded understandingly, slowly stood up, and said loudly: "The emperor, the minister has something to play!" ”

Song Huizong said indifferently: "What does Master Tong have to play?" ”

Tong Guan replied: "Back to the emperor, although the king of Guangping County pacified the thief head, and captured Fang La, he should be rewarded." However, the king of Guangping County is only thirteen years old, and he has not yet been crowned, and there is no crowning gift, and he has not yet been crowned king, so he should not be given the same three divisions as the opening ceremony. ”

"According to the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, the opening ceremony and the three divisions are the first rank of the dynasty, and the prince's opening ceremony is crowned as the king, and the ranking of the first rank can be in line with the etiquette system. If the king of Guangping County is a hussar general, he will open the palace, and the local officials will dismount to greet him, and the people will avoid it, fearing that the people will be dissatisfied. ”

Song Huizong said: "The king of Guangping County has repeatedly performed miraculous feats, although he is still young, he is loyal to the monarch and serves the country. This time, the extermination of the traitor Fang La was even more meritorious, and he was captured and returned to Beijing, who can take on this responsibility Chinese the military officials of the DPRK and the United States? If the rebellion is put down and the people are benefited, how can you be dissatisfied? Tong Daren is serious! ”

"I gave the king of Guangping County to open the mansion and the three divisions, it is to commend the heart of loyalty to the country, and he led the army out of battle at a young age, whether it is the current dynasty or the previous dynasty, and even the Qin Emperor and Han Wu are afraid that no one can match it. The hussar general is the most official position of the military general, and it is also the title of the county king, how can it not be in line with the courtesy? ”

"You Aiqing, don't discuss it again, I have already made a decree on this matter, do you want me to take back my will?"

Tong Guan, Gao Yu, Zhao Huan and the others panicked, and immediately said: "The ministers don't dare!" ”

Song Huizong was not angry and arrogant, and said: "Don't mention this matter again!" ”

Zhao Huan lowered his head, his hands were tightly clenched, and he thought, "Father is actually angry for Lao Jiu?" I'm afraid that there are some discrepancies in what Father-in-law Li said a few days ago, so I can ask again in the evening......"

The crown prince Zhao Huan dared to oppose Song Huizong's will, in fact, he told him ******** Gonggong Li that night, Song Huizong's attitude was to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and the two did not help each other, so that the two brothers dared to be so presumptuous, but it was a pity that today's events made him a little confused.

As Song Huizong's close attendant, Gonggong Li also knows some unknown things in detail, and can guess the emperor's thoughts, he guessed right, Song Huizong really wants to let the two brothers fight, but Zhao Huan is too anxious, I don't know if Zhao Ji wants to give Zhao Gou some help in his heart, so that he can stand on the court, so that he can have the opportunity to fight with him, if there is nothing, how can he fight against the prince Zhao Huan, who holds great power.

The reason why Tong Guan is on the side of the crown prince Zhao Huan is only because his position is much higher than before. Now, he is an envoy to the Privy Council, and all of this is also the masterpiece of Zhao Huan and Gao Yu. Generally speaking, the Privy Council envoy is the emperor's confidant minister, Tong Guan was with Cai Jing and others before, and after Cai Jing was demoted, he continued to stay in the capital as an official, cutting off contact with Cai Jing and breaking off contacts, that is, severing relations.

Song Huizong reinstated his official position, Tong Guan has been in a high position for a long time, and let him reinstate the official without the same power as before, he can only rely on the power of the court, which is attached to Gao Yu, and then hooked up with the crown prince Zhao Huan, and gradually the official position is getting bigger and bigger, becoming a privy councillor, in fact, he is in charge of military and political power, and the status of the court is not inferior to Gao Yu and others.

Song Huizong turned around and returned to the dragon chair, sat down, and said in a deep voice: "The king of Guangping County listens to the order!" ”

Zhao Gou hurriedly replied: "The minister accepts the order!" ”

"Spread my will: Fang La, the leader of the rebel thieves, has been captured alive and returned to Beijing, and I have appointed you as the supervisor and beheaded, and you will be executed at noon at three o'clock tomorrow!"

"Minister's decree, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Retreat!"

"Retreat!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The civil and military officials shouted in unison and bowed away.

Zhao Gou and the others also returned home, but Wu Ling came to Zhao Gou happily. His gaze did not stay on Wu Lan, but stayed on the man wearing armor who followed Wu Lan's side, seeing that he was a little similar to Wu Lan, he knew the origin of this person, and said: "It turned out to be Lord Wu!" ”

Wu Lan exclaimed: "Marshal, do you know my brother? ”

This person is Wu Xuan's brother Wu Jue, mentioning him may not be clear to many people, in fact, Wu Jue is also indispensable among the anti-Jin generals in the Southern Song Dynasty, and even the Jin Wushu was defeated in his hands, but unfortunately he died young, so that his reputation in later generations was not as strong as Yue Fei and others.

Wu Jue saw his brother looking at him suspiciously, crying and laughing, looking at Zhao Gou in surprise, and asked directly: "Has the king of the county seen you?" ”

Zhao Gou said with a smile: "I haven't seen it, just because Brother Wu's appearance is similar, and I see him ecstatic, I know that it must be Brother Wu's brother." ”

Wu Jue exclaimed: "No wonder Wu Ling is very respectful when he mentions the king of the county, and he really has some ability." ”

Zhao Gou smiled slightly, and said: "You can't be called a brother in the court, and if you are not in the military camp today, you don't have to be so polite if you are not in the court." Since he is the elder brother of Brother Wu, he is also my elder brother, if you don't dislike it, you can go to the county king's mansion to rest for a while, how about drinking with the brothers? ”

"Then it's disrespectful!" Wu Jue saw that Zhao Gou was so hospitable and approachable, so he didn't shirk and agreed directly.

Liu Qi's father, Liu Zhongwu, also came to congratulate Zhao Gou, who was pulled over by his own son; The Yang family also came to congratulate, even Zong Ze also came, and the other generals also politely congratulated and left in a hurry, just because the prince Zhao Huan, Gao Yu and others came.

Zhao Gou also ignored it, Zong Ze, Liu Zhongwu and others also ignored it, and still talked and laughed with Zhao Gou, as if he was really standing by Zhao Gou's side and advancing and retreating with him. Zong Ze was originally a veteran of the court, but he just came to reminisce, and the most surprising thing was that the master Dao was also happy, praising Zhao Gou's young hero, and finally returned home with him, seeing Zhao Huan and others stunned.

The Seed Master Dao never attaches himself to any force in the court, let alone helps anyone, this is his way of being an official, and so is Zong Ze. However, these two people talked with Zhao Gou very happily after the dispersal of the dynasty, and they were full of praise, even if Zhao Huan came, they ignored it, and clearly worked against him, advancing and retreating with Zhao Gou.

Zhao Huan saw that Zong Ze, Liu Zhongwu and the others were there, and when he saw that the seed master Dao was also coming, his eyes changed a little, he frowned, and secretly thought, "Why did the old man also come?" Isn't it a kind of old support for Lao Jiu? It's not that he has never supported any prince, let alone any force, why would he support Lao Jiu this time? ”

He left full of thoughts and worries; Gao Yu also glanced at it thoughtfully, and then turned to leave, only Zhao Gou talked and laughed with everyone, and also left towards the county king's mansion.
