Chapter 577: Long En is mighty
Suddenly, Zhao Gou was also silent, and he didn't know what to do.
If you don't want to watch the Great Song Dynasty weaken, you can only choose to embark on the road to seize the throne; If he watched Zhao Huan ascend the throne as emperor, Zhao Gou was not sure if it was the right decision, and he couldn't believe that Zhao Huan would definitely support him, and he would definitely make a stumbling block.
At that time, Zhao Huan was the emperor, he was just a courtier, if there was really a dispute, or he would be called the emperor, I am afraid that future generations will be infamous. Besides, the Great Song Dynasty is Cheng Zhu's concept of science, that is, the traditional concept. If he really seizes the throne, I am afraid that others will say that he Zhao Gou killed his brother to seize the throne, even if the Great Song Dynasty becomes stronger and stronger in the future, it may be difficult to cover up such a scandal.
If it was in the Tang Dynasty, the people were open at that time, and the people's thinking was not rigid. Now the Song people's thinking is so rigid that they don't dare to think about some things at all. Even if those in power don't say anything, the public opinion of the people will be unbearable.
Zhao Yougong's words are facts and difficult to refute. is the so-called word to wake up the person in the dream, if it really comes to that time, Zhao Gou will have to do it even if he is infamy. After all, personal honor and disgrace do not matter, what matters is the great Song Dynasty, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
The historical Zhao Gou was Gaozong of the Song Dynasty, that is, the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty. Now he really hasn't thought about ascending the throne and becoming the emperor, you must know that becoming an emperor, some things are involuntary, Song Huizong is an example, not as carefree as now.
In the end, Zhao conceived a compromise solution, even if Zhao Huan ascended the throne as emperor, he would not have to worry about being excluded. As long as he has great power, even if Zhao Huan is the emperor, it will not help. Because no one dared to move Zhao Gou at that time, Zhao Gou decided to do so.
Zhao Yougong sighed again and again: "I'm afraid that there will be some things that you can't do if you want to do it, and if you have to do it, you can only choose a path that you don't want to take." Even if you don't want to, for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, you have to go hard. ”
"Second brother, are you hiding something?" Zhao Gou saw Zhao Yougong suddenly ask, which made him a little curious, if Zhao Yougong rarely mentioned national affairs on weekdays. Even if he talked about it in private, he rarely talked about the throne, but this time he mentioned it, which surprised him a little.
Zhao Yougong smiled and said, "Take precautions, where is there anything to hide!" ”
Zhao Gou glanced at it suspiciously, and saw that Zhao Yougong didn't explain, and Zhao Gou was unwilling to force him to say it. However, he guessed in his heart that Zhao Yougong did have something to hide from him.
The next day, Zhao Gou and his entourage set off non-stop and went straight to Bianjing City.
"Your Highness is here!"
"Come, preach my will, let all the officials meet at the city gate; The people of Bianjing City all knelt down to greet them! After Song Huizong handed down the holy decree, he immediately asked the guards to prepare the dragon to leave the palace and personally welcome Zhao Gou into the city. Moreover, he was accompanied by the prince who stayed in the capital, and even the prince was no exception, all of whom left the palace and palace.
Song Huizong sat proudly in the dragon chariot, with six horses in front of him, and the body was inlaid with gold, silver and jade, gems and pearls; The body is also engraved with dragon and phoenix patterns, showing the royal noble and luxurious style. The crown prince was drawn by four horses, and so was the first-class officer.
However, except for the emperor and the crown prince, all the other ministers went in a sedan chair. Because, today is not in the court, everyone is quietly waiting for the emperor's decree. In order to welcome Zhao Gou into the city and give the supreme courtesy, Song Huizong dismissed the dynasty and asked the ministers to wait for the holy decree in the palace, so the ministers wore court clothes in the palace these days in case of emergency.
When Zhao Gou arrived outside Bianjing City, he saw a team waiting for him from a distance. Everyone was suffering and walked forward, and only to find that this time was a little different from the past. Because they saw the dragon chariot that the emperor was riding, the golden bright yellow was hard to ignore.
Everyone immediately cheered up their spirits, and now the emperor welcomes them in person, which is a great honor.
Before, Zhao Gou and the others were all riding horses, wearing armor, walking like the wind, and never slowing down. Now that the emperor greeted them in person, their movements were much slower, and every time they walked forward, they were calm and steady steps.
Zhao Gou and the others were about to arrive, and Song Huizong ordered the musicians waiting at the city gate to play music, followed by the sound of cannonballs. Song Huizong also walked out of the dragon chariot in person, standing in front of the hundred officials, wearing a dragon robe and a dragon crown, looking at Zhao Gou with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Gou also got off the horse, and everyone dismounted with him and walked forward step by step.
"Erchen see the emperor!"
"The ministers have seen the emperor!"
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
As Zhao Gou spoke, Zhao Yougong followed closely behind, and the others spoke in unison, and then everyone called 'Long live'. Song Huizong was overjoyed, and before everyone knelt down, he had already stepped forward, helped Zhao Gou and Zhao Yougong up, and said with a smile: "Zhongqing is flat!" ”
"Emperor Xie!" Everyone thanked respectfully, and then stood there straight and motionless, waiting for Song Huizong's will.
"I've lost a lot of weight, and I've lost a lot of energy!"
Song Huizong saw at first glance that Zhao Gou had lost weight, and even Zhao Yougong had lost weight. It's just that the spirit of the two of them is much better, especially Zhao Yougong's temperament is more similar to his father, and he is a little emotional but a little excited in his heart, and he can't help nodding secretly.
"The generals served the country, and they were ordered to go to the front line in danger and fight with Liao for a whole year. Throughout the year, I have been relieved all the time. Because the generals let the Khitan and even the Jurchens see the strength of my Great Song Dynasty. Song Huizong praised impassionedly, "Although I have never been on the battlefield, I also know the tragedy on the battlefield, and I know the loyalty of the generals." Today, I am very happy to return triumphantly for all the generals, so I give you royal wine and talk about my heart! ”
"Come on, serve the wine!"
"Emperor Xie!" Once again, everyone thanked them.
Under the will of Song Huizong, a eunuch took out a jar of fine palace wine, which was usually taken out when it was special and important. However, now that the Great Song Dynasty has achieved an unprecedented victory, this is a real great joy, so Song Huizong directly ordered someone to take it out.
Everyone was about to wait to take over the wine bowl, but it was not the eunuch, nor the palace maid or the guards who gave it to them, but Song Huizong personally handed the wine bowl to everyone, and then personally poured wine for them.
"I respect you!"
Song Huizong personally poured the wine and toasted it, and everyone hurriedly drank it all and immediately thanked him. Song Huizong ordered someone to pour wine again, and drank three glasses before giving up. Although Song Huizong did not pour the wine himself in the last two times, his concern and respect for everyone was enough to make everyone feel favored and prosperous.
