Chapter 573: Royal Ruthlessness (Thank you for the time-traveling traveler)
Everyone outside Bianliang City was happy, and although the army was not allowed to drink alcohol at this time, it was also an exception for each person to share half a bowl of good wine. The whole camp was full of joy.
But in this Tokyo city, there are people with tears on their faces, and pear blossoms bring rain.
In the palace of Wang Guifei, a group of eunuchs and palace maids circled around Zhao Ying.
Zhao Yingluo cried extremely sadly, and cried in her mouth: "Why is the imperial brother like this? Before my father returns, he is going to marry me off, can't he let me see my father before he leaves? ”
Zhao Yingluo obviously has a very good relationship with Zhao Ji, and suddenly got a holy decree to marry Yanyun, Zhao Yingluo just wants to meet Zhao Ji in his heart, say goodbye, and say a few precious words.
Wang Guifei is Zhao Yingluo's biological mother, and suddenly received such a holy decree, her daughter got married, and she was reluctant to do sober.
"Your Highness, the old slave is also acting on orders, Your Majesty's will, who dares to disobey, please prepare quickly, you have to go out of the city before dark, otherwise the old slave can't afford it, only the head falls to the ground, please be merciful." An old eunuch knelt on the ground and had to plead.
Zhao Yingluo stood up, walked out of the door, and said straightly: "I'm going to see the emperor's brother, why can he be so ruthless, he can't let me see my father and the emperor before leaving." ”
Several eunuchs hurriedly got up to stop him, and cried in their mouths: "Your Highness is merciful, don't embarrass the old slave, if Your Highness breaks into front of Your Majesty, the old slave can only die." Please also ask Your Highness to read that the old slave's parents are still alive, and let the old slave have a way to live. ”
At this time, Wang Guifei stood up, slowly walked in front of Zhao Yingluo, and said: "Yingluo, the royal family is ruthless, and being born in the forbidden palace is sad. Don't mess around, go pack up with your mother, and talk about it when you enter Beijing in the next day. ”
"Mother, why do you want to be like this? Can't you let your daughter wait a little longer? Zhao Yingluo heard her mother speak, and her heart was even more painful, a daughter's wish to see her father was difficult to fulfill, it was really cruel.
"Yingluo, you have also grown up, and you also know that things in the world often do not follow people's wishes, and the coming days will be long, Your Majesty's holy oracle has arrived, how can you repeat it at will. Mother packs your luggage for you... Wang Guifei said this, tears rained down, but she still turned back and went to the room, the most ruthless emperor's family, Wang Guifei knew these truths very well.
Zhao Yingluo was already paralyzed on the ground, this little girl did not have the tenacity of an adult, she only felt full of grievances. Zhao Yingluo, who should have been taken captive by the Jurchens, may also be lucky.
Li Bangyan was going to Zhao Huan to return to his life, and when he heard Li Bangyan say that Zheng Zhi would withdraw his troops tomorrow, Zhao Huan's heart immediately settled down, and he looked at Wu Min and Geng Nanzhong, and asked: "If Zheng Zhi retreats back to Hebei tomorrow, how should I deal with the matter of the emperor?" ”
Obviously, the three people in front of him are already in Zhao Huan's basic trust. Zhao Huan's words also have the meaning of temptation.
When Li Bangyan heard this, he was shocked, and hurriedly forced himself to calm down, understanding the reason, but he didn't dare to speak.
Wu Min also hesitated, and was still organizing suitable words in his head.
Only Geng Nanzhong said directly: "Your Majesty, according to the minister's wishes, tomorrow it is appropriate to send someone south as soon as possible to inform the Emperor Taishang to return to Beijing." ”
Wu Minyan was stunned for a moment, looked at Geng Nanzhong, and felt that Geng Nanzhong's words were inappropriate. The meaning of this new majesty is obviously that he does not want the emperor to return to Beijing to seize power, but it is Geng Nanzhong who actually came up with such a plan.
"Oh? If the Emperor returns to Beijing, what should I do with him? Zhao Huan also frowned when he heard this.
Geng Nanzhong has been in the East Palace for ten years, obviously knowing Zhao Huan's heart better, and said: "The Emperor Taishang has abdicated, and he should retire in the palace." If the emperor is outside the palace, I am afraid it will be inconvenient. ”
Geng Nanzhong's words were extremely vague. But the meaning has already come out, there can only be one emperor in a country, if Zhao Ji is outside Tokyo, he will naturally do whatever he wants, and even have many constraints on Zhao Huan. Only by letting Zhao Ji return to the palace can Zhao Huan, the emperor, be more justified. As for how Zhao Huan disposes of Zhao Ji, it depends on Zhao Huan's intentions.
Zhao Huan suddenly realized when he heard this, and said in his mouth: "Tomorrow I will send someone to welcome the Emperor Taishang back to Beijing, I should abide by the etiquette and filial piety, serve the knee of the Emperor, and not violate the sage's etiquette." ”
Wu Min also suddenly figured out the joint, and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty Shengming." ”
Li Bangyan naturally understood, and praised it even more: "Your Majesty's virtue should be a model." ”
Zhao Huan nodded, but he didn't talk about it anymore, but said: "When I was the crown prince, I often heard about Taishi Cai's affairs in the court, and I heard that he had great authority, covering the sky with one hand, and it was filthy and difficult to write. I also hope that the three of them will investigate well in the next two days to see if the rumors are true, and they will definitely find out about this matter before the emperor returns to Beijing. ”
Zhao Huan's words were high-sounding, and the three people under the seat naturally understood, and the emperor in front of him obviously wanted to take Cai Jing under the knife, that is, to solve this Cai Jing before the emperor came back. The deeper meaning is to cut off the wings of the emperor.
"Your Majesty rest assured, the ministers will carefully investigate this matter, conform to the will of the people, and conform to the will of the court." Geng Nanzhong had already opened his mouth first.
The other two nodded their heads again and again.
When the three of them left, the palace was also bloody, and a few old eunuchs who were cautious in the East Palace suddenly gained momentum, and the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace were killed a lot, and several sank in the artificial lake of Genyue.
The eunuchs who can walk on errands in the palace have all changed their faces.
Once a son of heaven and a courtier, but that's it.
Zhao Huan and Zhao Ji are obviously not the same kind of people. Zhao Ji has never been through the battle of the palace, and a throne has fallen on top of his head. ascended the throne as the emperor, Zhao Ji also lived in praise, and everything he wanted was at his fingertips and effortlessly.
Zhao Huan has endured for many years, and every day he sees Zhao Ji being kind to Zhao Kai, and he is cautious every day, for fear that he will make a mistake. I also see Zhao Kai high-spirited every day, a prince who grew up like this. In terms of means, it is much more ruthless than Zhao Ji.
In this competition, one is preparing many times, but the other still doesn't know it, only thinking that his son has always been pure and filial. The outcome seems to have been predictable.
Zhao Yingluo cried and cried all the way out of the city in a carriage, neither seeing his father who loved him, nor his brother who had just ascended the throne, so he went out of the city like this.
Under the sunset, seeing the iron armor of the barracks for the first time, and thinking of the person who was about to become her husband, this girl had real troubles in her heart for the first time, and she didn't know how to face it.
If you want to say that you have a good feeling, you naturally have it. But I know in my heart that this Zheng Zhi is a chaotic minister and thief, and from the perspective of the royal family, Zheng Zhi is a standard chaotic minister and thief. Even if the writing is extraordinary, even if it is heroic, it can't stop the fact that the rebellious ministers and thieves can't stop it.
It was in this confusion that the carriage slowly stopped, and under the sunset, Zhao Yingluo saw Zheng Zhi's appearance wearing armor for the first time.
The tall horses, left and right, were fierce generals, these generals smiled, showing their white teeth, no matter how you look at it, they feel even more vicious.
Zheng Zhi turned over and dismounted, carried a long knife at his waist, took off the iron helmet on his head and paid it to his left and right, stepped forward to the frame, and arched his hand and said: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Emperor, please get off the car." ”
Zhao Yingluo wiped the tears on her face, raised her hand and put it on the hand of a palace maid, slowly walked out of the curtain, stepped on the ladder of disembarkation that the eunuch had already prepared, and slowly got off the frame.
Ying Ying Yifu spoke: "I have seen His Royal Highness King Yan." ”
At this time, Zhao Yingluo had no joy or sorrow, and there was a little resistance in her heart, but also a little willingness, complicated and intertwined, looking at the person in front of her, she slowly lowered her head and no longer looked directly.
"Your Royal Highness, Please!" Zheng Zhi was on one side of his body and raised his hand to please.
There are also family members in the seed division behind him, and the seed master is even rushing over to greet him.
Zhao Yingluo stepped forward and slowly walked into the barracks, and Zheng Zhi followed sideways. The left and right generals followed with a smile on their faces, and Zheng Zhi was not happy in their hearts.
After so many years of riding career, only today is the happiest. followed Zheng Zhi to today, which can be regarded as a success, and the eldest husband's achievements are just for this day.
When Zhao Yingluo entered the barracks, he also felt novel, and raised his eyes to look around.
Zheng Zhi seemed to be able to guess this girl's thoughts, and when he saw her looking around, he slowly introduced: "This is a rejection of the horse, placed in front of the head, which can block the enemy's horse steps." ”
"This is a ballista, and the arrows are like spears, which can be shot three hundred paces away, and the power is huge."
"These small drying rings are called titles, and they are tied at both ends and placed in the horse's mouth, so that the horse can not cry, and then march with the sneak attack, and the scouts in the army also need this thing. After use, it should be dried, otherwise it will rust. ”
。。。。
Zheng Zhi explained to the girl slowly, and the girl seemed to have less practical worries because of her curiosity.
When I was about to enter the big tent, there were suddenly several rows of huge objects wrapped in oilcloth on the left and right. The girl was even more curious, and stopped for a moment before moving forward, but she didn't open her mouth to ask.
Seeing this, Zheng Zhi beckoned, and several pro-soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to lift the tarpaulin, revealing the pitch-black cannon barrel inside. The guns were also delivered to the barracks this afternoon. Zheng Zhi marched all the way, and the artillery naturally couldn't keep up with the army.
"This is artillery, a newly invented weapon, which uses gunpowder to fire projectiles that can hit the enemy three or five miles away. Siege is the most easy to use, can break the city gate. ”
Zhao Yingluo finally opened his mouth when he heard this: "His Royal Highness King Yan used this sharp weapon to beat that party member?" That's why they can destroy their country. ”
Zheng Zhi shook his head and said: "The people who beat the party did not use this sharp weapon, but they did use it to fight the Liao people Yanjing." ”
Zhao Yingluo nodded, and asked again: "This thing looks like it is made of iron, and it is very heavy." ”
"The big ones are two thousand catties, and the small ones are hundreds of catties."
Zhao Yingluo's face was shocked, and he exclaimed: "Two thousand catties, how can I get rid of it?" ”
"You see there's a wheel down there, and the man pulls the horse and drags it away, and slowly carries it away. As long as you can get to the battle formation, it's worth it. Zheng Zhi was extremely patient. In the face of this simple girl, you are the old man, and there is still a lot of softness in your heart.
Zhao Yingluo watched a few times, then walked forward again, and her mood seemed to be much better.
