Chapter 33: Zhao Guangyi's Poisonous Life

When Zhao Kuangyin's breathing slowly changed from rapid to gentle, he finally stopped. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Jiang Yin, who was squatting on the beams, slowly revealed a pair of eyes from the night, staring at the corpse of Lao Zhao, who had ruled the entire empire on the dragon bed, in a daze.

Only by witnessing a royal power dispute can we fully appreciate the horror and coldness of the 'ruthless righteousness of the royal family'.

The distorted family affection under power, perverted and bloody, and desperate deceit, just for the sake of a cold throne, made Jiang Yin, who was accustomed to seeing a harmonious society in later generations, feel quite uncomfortable.

In fact, Jiang Yin is fully capable of saving Zhao Kuangyin, but after thinking about it for a long time, Jiang Yin finally made up his mind to let Zhao Kuangyin die and not interfere with the process of history.

All this is because Jiang Yin once learned an article called "The Way of Nature" when he was in elementary school.

It was a very popular prose, basically about a group of tourists visiting the Galapagos Islands, and saw a seabird on the beach trying to eat the baby turtle huddled in the sand, so they ignored the guide's dissuasion, and helped the poor little turtle and released it into the sea.

But what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations, and countless baby turtles on the beach frantically poured out of the beach and headed straight for the sea because of the false safety signal obtained by this 'scout turtle'.

But their frantic sprint was too early, and there was still light at dusk, so they couldn't hide from the hordes of impatient predators in the air.

Tourists have tried their best to save them, but there are still countless baby turtles that are preyed, and a feast of blood and killing begins on the beach, and those who are full of humanity end up killing countless turtles by saving a baby turtle.

Jiang Yin didn't want to change the historical trend of the Great Song Dynasty because of Zhao Kuangyin's 'turtle', and finally led this piece of history into an unpredictable abyss.

Compared with the unknown who rescued Zhao Kuangyin, Jiang Yin is obviously more familiar with Zhao Guangyi, who will succeed to the throne in the future.

For Zhao Guangyi, Jiang Yin only has five words to evaluate, 'peerless old poison'.

This honest and honest middle-aged man, in fact, has an extremely selfish and murderous greed, after killing the eldest brother Zhao Kuangyin, he inherited the throne, and for no reason got a "Golden Alliance" from Zhao Pu to pass on the throne to the same mother and brother, and magnificently compiled the reasons for his succession.

Then he began to enjoy the convenience brought to him by the right without any scruples, first blatantly stuffed Mrs. Hua Rui into his harem, and then poisoned Li Yu, forcibly occupied Xiao Zhouhou, and he did not let go of the imperial sister-in-law Song.

He seems to have fallen into a pathological possessiveness, as long as it is the eldest brother's woman, he has to keep it all for himself, which can be best reflected in the fact that after the death of the imperial sister-in-law Song, he was not allowed to bury her with Zhao Kuangyin, and dragged it out until he died. This is strange like never before! In the end, the historian sighed helplessly: This matter must be ridiculed by later generations (if the Song Dynasty is not buried, future generations cannot be ridiculed).

Zhao Guangyi occupied the Song Empress and regarded this super beauty as his wife, even if she closed her eyes, she couldn't return it to her eldest brother.

This can't help but remind Jiang Yin of another figure in history: Guan Yu Guan Yunchang during the Three Kingdoms period, the legendary experience of the eldest brother escorting the two sisters-in-law to ride alone for thousands of miles is well-known.

is also a human brother, a forcibly occupying sister-in-law, a thousand-mile escort, and the moral level is naturally one underground and one in the sky. Zhao Guangyi was scolded for leaving a stench for 10,000 years, and Guan Yu was ranked as the 'martial saint' and the 'literary saint' Confucius.

Later generations had a very low evaluation of Zhao Guangyi, not only because of his low moral level, but also because of his low level in politics and the military.

After ascending to the throne, Zhao Guangyi vowed to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun, spent a huge amount of money, launched a war and the Khitan army, but his few catties and taels were not enough for the Khitan people to see, where was the infantry-based Song army the opponent of the Great Liao Iron Cavalry, several major battles were all fiascos, not only did not have a glorious name, but he was hit by an arrow in the buttocks, and fled back to Bianjing in a donkey cart in embarrassment.

After returning to Bianjing, he heard that during the disappearance of his own donkey cart escape, someone in the army tried to support Zhao Kuangyin's eldest son Zhao Dezhao as emperor, so he held a grudge and did not know what method was used, and finally let Zhao Dezhao commit suicide in the palace at the end of the year.

In the following years, Mrs. Hua Rui said that Zhao Defang was quite suitable for succession, but when she was hunting, she was shot by Zhao Guangyi, who held a grudge, and Zhao Kuangyin's remaining youngest son, Zhao Defang, also died violently for no reason, and the history books naturally covered it up in every possible way.

Then, Zhao Guangyi's younger brother Zhao Yanmei felt bad, but in "The Biography of Zhao Yanmei, King of Qin", these few sentences were left: "Dezhao can't die, Defang died one after another, and Yanmei was not at ease." ”

After careful scrutiny, it is not difficult to find that historians have used concise words to describe Zhao Guangyi's clear killing route: Zhao Dezhao - Zhao Defang - Zhao Yanmei.

After killing the two orphans of the eldest brother's family, the next step is the turn of the younger brother Zhao Yanmei.

Since Zhao Guangyi came up with a "Golden Alliance", saying that it was Empress Dowager Du who asked Zhao Kuangyin to pass the throne to his younger brother, then after returning to heaven, of course, he also had to pass the position to his younger brother Zhao Yanmei. Zhao Kuangyin must untie this set by himself, but he can't deny it by himself, there is only one way to eliminate the body, and without his younger brother, he can naturally pass on the throne to his son.

Zhao Yanmei is an unlucky guy, just because she and Zhao Guangyi are brothers, Zhao Guangyi asked Prime Minister Zhao Pu how to treat this brother, Zhao Pu's answer was very real, very vicious, and very powerful: "Taizu has already made the mistake of not dealing with you earlier, do you want to make it again (Taizu has made a mistake, how can Your Majesty allow another mistake)?" ”

There is a Hanlin bachelor named Lu Duoxun, who was once a popular man in front of Song Taizu, and his meritorious status is second only to Zhao Pu, but this person is arrogant, always looks down on Zhao Pu, and pinches him to the death, and beats Zhao Pu's small report in front of Zhao Kuangyin, as a result, Zhao Kuangyin drove Zhao Pu to Mengzhou to be the prefect.

Lu Duosun has a good relationship with Zhao Yanmei, and often gives him ideas.

Zhao Pu is a villain, after Zhao Guangyi killed Zhao Kuangyin and came to power, his name was not right, and there was a lot of discussion in the court, but Zhao Pu saw that this was an opportunity, so he wrote a letter to Zhao Kuangyin in Mengzhou, and said that Empress Dowager Du had confessed to the 'Golden Kui Alliance' before her death, indicating that she wanted Zhao Guangyi to take over. Zhao Guangyi was overjoyed and immediately recalled him to the imperial court and appointed him prime minister.

As soon as Zhao Pu was in power, he took the order to carry it out, bribed Zhao Guangyi's old bureaucrat Chai Yuxi, and framed Lu Duosun for instigating Zhao Yanmei to usurp power and seize the emperor's position.

Zhao Guangyi took advantage of the topic to play hard, severely cracked down on Lu Duoxun, purged Zhao Yanmei, and constantly cut his post and exiled.

During this period, Zhao Guangyi's eldest son Zhao Yuanzuo saw that his little uncle was framed, and he spoke outright, often scolding Zhao Pu in front of Zhao Guangyi for not being a thing. Zhao Guangyi scolded: You are stupid, didn't I fight you the country?

Zhao Yuanzuo said that I am not rare in this dirty position of power, I want justice. Because the classmate suffered from schizophrenia, he either burned the palace or injured people with a knife, otherwise he would be the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

Zhao Yanmei had to go to the degraded place to suffer, and died of depression at the age of Chinese New Year's Eve.

Zhao Guangyi cried again, this brother has been vicious since he was a child, not a thing, but I thought of brotherhood, and I couldn't bear to bring him to justice, so I had to let him out and let him reflect on it.

This performance is very marketable in the court of the Great Song Dynasty, and the ministers on the left and right are very moved, which shows that this old poison can win the Oscar, and he is born to be an actor.

In short, Zhao Guangyi poisoned his eldest brother, gave death to Empress Li, occupied Xiao Zhouhou, forcibly occupied the widowed sister-in-law Song, shot Mrs. Hua Rui, forced the eldest nephew Zhao Dezhao to death, assassinated the second nephew Zhao Defang, angry brother Zhao Yanmei, and angry eldest son Zhao Yuanzuo.

This kind of peerless old poison can't be reached by Ouyang Feng.

After inquiring about various historical materials of the Great Song Dynasty, Jiang Yin lost all confidence in the Great Song Dynasty after Zhao Kuangyin's death, and since 977 AD, the Great Song Dynasty has followed the footsteps of Zhao Guangyi, an old poison, and has slipped into the abyss step by step, and assisting this poison, Jiang Yin is not interested at all.

Therefore, he wants to stand up and lead the Great Song Dynasty in another direction at this crossroads of history.....
