Zhao Gou gave up the throne to Zhao Yan in desperation, although he liked Zhao Zhuo, but Zhao Zhuo was too lustful, which made him feel that Zhao Zhuo was already embarrassed. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

You must know that the Great Song Dynasty is facing Zhao Shuo, a cunning fox, if the Great Song Dynasty is handed over to Zhao Zhuo, then Zhao Zhuo will inevitably be played to death by Zhao Shuo, and the Great Song Dynasty will be in danger at that time.

But Zhao Yan is better in comparison, Zhao Yan is not lustful, he is old, he is scheming, and he is responsible, although Zhao Gou does not like Zhao Yan, but Zhao Yan is indeed more suitable to be the emperor than Zhao Zhuo.

Originally, Zhao Gou wanted to retrain Zhao Zhuo, but because of this, he never announced the candidate for the crown prince.

But now that the tense is urgent, if he doesn't give way, Da Song may die in his hands.

Although a hundred people are not happy in their hearts, for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Gou can only do this.

The news of Zhao Gou's abdication soon spread throughout Lin'an, and then throughout the Great Song Dynasty. According to Zhao Ziyan's confession, the first thing Zhao Yan did after ascending the throne was to give amnesty to the world, especially for Fang Qifo and other rebels, all of whom were not to blame.

After receiving Fang Yunsheng's secret letter, Fang Qifo also gave up his plan to attack Lin'an, retreated directly, and entered Shu.

The officials of Shu had already received Zhao Shuo's order and directly chose to surrender. This gives people the feeling that this rebel army has captured Shudi.

Fang Qifo withdrew like this, and the Great Song Dynasty was temporarily saved.

But after the Great Song Dynasty is saved, it is still unstable, after all, the entire Great Song Dynasty has no defensive force now.

In order to keep the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Yan issued orders to Liu Guangshi, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, and Qin Hui.

For Liu Guangshi and Han Zhizhong, Zhao Yan sent someone to choose to send it secretly, and for Zhang Jun and Qin Hui, Zhao Yan chose to ask Zhao Shuo for help.

Moreover, compared with Zhao Gou, Zhao Yan was much more polite in his words, directly calling Zhao Shuo his uncle, without the slightest bit of an emperor's shelf.

After Zhao Shuo read the secret letter, he frowned. "Qin Hui, what do you say this should be!"

Qin Hui is now the lord of Zhao Shuo's big city on the surface, and he has a high status on Zhao Shuo's side, but in fact, he has no real power at all.

Seeing Zhao Shuo's question, Qin Hui hurriedly said. "Lord Wang, this ......"

"There is a will for you above, Zhao Yan said, he doesn't care about his past suspicions, I hope you can continue to return to the Great Song Dynasty, continue to be your prime minister, help him, and assist him......"

Zhao Shuo babbled a lot, and the more Zhao Shuo said, the more bottomless Qin Hui's heart became. Moreover, he has already begun to curse Zhao Yan in his heart.

Zhao Yan handed over his will to Zhao Shuo, which was obviously to kill people with a knife.

"Lord Wang, the minister only has the Lord in his heart now, and he is willing to be loyal to the Lord for the rest of his life......" Qin Hui didn't know how to explain, after all, Zhao Shuo was too smart.

Therefore, Qin Hui directly expressed his loyalty, and it was a handful of snot and tears.

"Qin Hui, let me ask you how is Zhao Yan? What do you mean by that? Zhao Shuo helped Qin Hui up.

Qin Hui wiped his tears and snot, and said in a choked voice. "When the minister was in Lin'an, he didn't have much contact with Zhao Yan, he only knew that he was the son of Zhao Ziyan, after the international gave Zhao Gou, he never got Zhao Gou's appreciation, and now Zhao Gou suddenly passed the throne to him, and the minister is still confused!"

"Really?" Zhao Shuo looked at Qin Hui with a smile. "Zhao Yan is much older than that Zhao Zhuoke, and this kid is quite smart, my uncle chose to abdicate out of desperation, he let Zhao Yan be the emperor, just because he was afraid that I would annex the Great Song Dynasty." Scratching his head, Zhao Shuo continued. "But the Great Song Dynasty now has no soldiers in the country, can it be that if you change someone with a little ability, you can conjure up an army of millions? Joke, what a joke! ”

"So, Lord Wang, you want to ......" Qin Hui wanted to speak and stopped.

In Qin Hui's opinion, Zhao Shuo is going to attack the Great Song Dynasty, but as the prince of the Great Song Dynasty, it is not a good reputation to directly attack the Great Song Dynasty. Even if Zhao Shuo is reasonable, there will inevitably be some stains left in the history books.

Qin Hui knew very well that Zhao Shuo would never leave such a stain, so he would stop talking at this moment.

"What do you want? Do you want to attack the Great Song? Zhao Shuo laughed.

Qin Hui lowered his head at this time, he wanted to nod, but he didn't dare to nod, he wanted to answer, but he didn't know how to answer.

"Qin Hui, spread this will, especially on Zhang Jun's side, it must be transmitted." Zhao Shuo threw his will to Qin Hui with a smile on his face.

Qin Hui didn't know what Zhao Shuo wanted to do, but he still obediently carried out the order.

The will was copied in countless copies, and under the impetus of Zhao Shuo, it soon spread throughout the subcontinent.

After seeing this will, Zhang Jun made a decision after thinking about it again.

Zhang Jun resolutely supported Zhao Yan's succession, and was willing to send a large army back to Lin'an.

Zhang Jun's statement soon spread from the subcontinent, and the first to receive the news was Han Shizhong of Bagan.

Knowing that Zhang Jun supported Zhao Yan's succession to the throne and was willing to send a large army back to Lin'an, Han Shizhong sneered.

This is obviously a measure of fooling people, Zhang Jun returned to Lin'an, and the two places were separated by 108,000 miles. In addition, there is no way back on the road, and the way back by sea has long been blocked.

With his mouth wide open, he said that he was going back, and it was completely for people to see.

But what is Zhang Jun doing, it can be regarded as a statement, Han Shizhong thought about it, and finally sent someone to Angkor, he wanted to discuss it with Liu Guangshi.

Liu Guangshi had a very depressed time during this time, after the army entered Angkor, everything went well, I thought that Angkor would fall into his hands, but after Zhao Ziyan left, everything changed.

The Li Dynasty and Siam on both sides continued to deploy troops on the border, which was okay, after all, he also had a lot of soldiers and horses. But what's worse is that in the territory of Angkor, there are constantly spies and small forces of Siam and Li Dynasty, these people are quite familiar with Angkor, come out for a wave, and then disappear directly.

Liu Guangshi sent a large army to search and arrest him several times, but in the end he found nothing. Fortunately, these spies, small troops, did not take the initiative to attack his troops.

At first, he still didn't understand, but now, he gradually understood why.

Li Chao and Siam did this, completely putting pressure on him, telling him a truth, that is, Angkor was not his Liu Guangshi.

Li Chao and Siam have long been submissive to Zhao Shuo, this is what Liu Guangshi knows, and now that they are doing this, Liu Guangshi knows very well that he looks like he owns the entire Angkor, but once Zhao Shuo is unhappy, the two sides are flanked, and there is an internal rebellion, and his control over Angkor will collapse in an instant.

And after the news of Zhao Yan's succession came, it added fuel to the fire.

Even Zhao Gou was taken down by Zhao Shuo, can a Zhao Yan fight against Zhao Shuo? It's just a joke.

So, after receiving Zhao Yan's will, Liu Guangshi chose to wait and see.

Han Shizhong's envoy soon arrived at Angkor, and after learning the news, Liu Guangshi personally received him. After some secret chats, the two sides formed an alliance.

Zhang Jun was willing to return to the Great Song Dynasty, and when the news slowly spread back to Dao Lin'an, more than half a year had passed.

In the past six months, Zhao Yan continued to appease the ministers and the people, and then desperately recruited troops. But in the Great Song Dynasty, the men of the right age were either taken away by Zhang Jun, or by Han Shizhong and Liu Guangshi, and the remaining ones who could move were also taken away by Fang Qifo's rebels.

It can be said that the current Great Song Dynasty is no longer panicked, but panicked.

In the face of these problems, Zhao Ziyan couldn't think of a way, Zhao Yan couldn't think of a way, and the ministers couldn't think of a way.

"Zhang Jun is happy to return to Lin'an......" Zhao Yan went straight to Zhao Ziyan's mansion with a hint of joy, and he wanted to tell Zhao Ziyan this exciting news immediately.

But after hearing Zhao Yan's words, Zhao Ziyan didn't have a trace of a smile.

"Father, why aren't you happy at all!" Seeing that Zhao Ziyan didn't say a word, Zhao Yan asked.

"Happy, what is there to be happy about, think about it, how long has it been since you passed the decree, Zhang Jun is willing to come back to help, has he come back to help? A piece of news has been spread for more than half a year, and when his soldiers and horses come back, it will not be ten or eight years, and how many soldiers and horses have returned? One or two? Zhao Ziyan looked sad. Zhang Jun is unreliable, only Han Shizhong and Liu Guangshi can be admitted now, if they want to come back, they can come back, but now this situation is ...... Alas......"

Zhao Ziyan let out a long sigh, and the sadness on his face became heavier.

"Father, then I will immediately issue an order to let Liu Guangshi and Han Shizhong come back. I don't believe that they dare to resist. Zhao Yan gritted his teeth. Even if they want to resist the order, but there are so many soldiers under them, only some people are dissatisfied, as long as there are people who are still loyal to my Great Song Dynasty......"

"That's it!" Zhao Ziyan raised his hand and interrupted Zhao Yan. "Liu Guangshi and Han Shizhong are both famous generals, they think to themselves, maybe there is a chance to come back, if you give an order to force them, you may directly rebel."

After a pause, Zhao Ziyan smiled bitterly. "Actually, even if they want to come back, it's a question of whether they can come back."

Hearing Zhao Ziyan's words, Zhao Yan was even more confused. "My Great Song army can fight well, and if you want to come back, how can you not come back?"

Faced with Zhao Yan's question, Zhao Ziyan thought about it and said. "Angkor, in fact, has long been controlled by Zhao Shuo, and the soldiers and horses of the Li Dynasty and Siam have long been infiltrated into it. As long as Zhao Shuo says a word, Angkor's Song army will fall into chaos, and it will be difficult to come back! And Bagan, where is occupied by Dali, but those are all nominal, Dali has actually taken refuge in Zhao Shuo a long time ago, that is to say, if Zhao Shuo does not speak, Dali will not lend Han Shizhong to let him come back. Also, the Fang Qi Buddha of Shudi, do you think they really captured Shudi? That was the order he gave after I told Zhao Shuo about the situation. ”

"This~?" Zhao Ziyan said something, and Zhao Yan was not calm. He originally wanted to do something, but he didn't expect that the Great Song Dynasty, which was taken over from Zhao Gou, was already like this.

"You say, can Liu Guangshi and Han Zhizhong come back? They don't say anything now, it's already good, and that Zhang Jun, who is fast to express his position, but it's useless. Zhao Ziwei kept shaking his head. Zhao Shuo told me that the Great Song Dynasty was left to you, but I didn't expect that it was such a Great Song Dynasty, if he knew this, maybe it would be a good thing to let Zhao Gou continue to manage. ”

"Father!" Zhao Yan looked at Zhao Ziyan with a puzzled expression.

Zhao Ziyan then told all the stories of his meeting with Zhao Shuo, including the transactions he made with Zhao Shuo, as well as Zhao Shuo's promises, and what he saw and heard along the way with Zhao Shuo.

It can be said that as long as Zhao Ziyan thinks it is helpful to Zhao Yan, no matter how big or small, he will say it in detail.

After listening to Zhao Ziyan's words, Zhao Yan lowered his head, he silently left Zhao Ziyan's mansion, returned to the palace alone, and came to the palace where Zhao Gou lived after his abdication.

Seeing Zhao Yan coming, Zhao Gou asked with a little surprise. "Yan'er, you don't handle national affairs well......"

Before Zhao Gou could finish speaking, Zhao Yan roared. "National events, are there any major national events? What kind of country is this, have you ever thought about it? Look at it, is this still the old Great Song Dynasty? If you want soldiers or no soldiers, you don't have any ......"

"Yan'er, are you alright?" Zhao Yan was so irritable, Zhao Gou got up and asked with a little concern.

"I'm fine, but Da Song has something......" Zhao Yan confessed everything he was facing to Zhao Gou, and after finishing speaking, he looked at Zhao Gou and said lightly. You say, what should I do? ”

This time, Zhao Gou was silent, he didn't expect things to become so serious. Da Song, it really can't be called Da Song now. The Great Song Dynasty, which has no soldiers and horses, is no different from the paper paste.

It can be said that as long as Zhao Shuo moves his fingers, the Great Song Dynasty will come to an end.

"Forget it, give it to Zhao Shuo, give it to him!" Zhao Gou lowered his head helplessly.

Zhao Yan snorted lightly and turned to leave.

Padbara, Zhao Shuo had a good time during this time, and after Zhang Jun expressed his position, Zhao Shuo gave him a privilege, that is, he could send troops back to Lin'an to defend the Great Song Dynasty.

But Zhang Jun is just talking, how can he really send troops. One of the consequences of his doing this was that he lost the morale of the army, and the officers and soldiers began to gradually distrust Zhang Jun, and many soldiers and horses secretly fled from the big city-state, and quietly left the subcontinent through Zhu Luo, which was controlled by Zhao Shuo, and prepared to return to Lin'an.

Most of these people were absorbed by Han Shizhong in Bagan, and some fled to Angkor and joined Liu Guangshi.

But such an escape is meaningless, after all, in Bagan or in Angkor, they still can't return to the Great Song Dynasty, and they are still within Zhao Shuo's control.

Han Shizhong and Liu Guangshi are not stupid, from the mouths of these soldiers, they have come to the news that the subcontinent will soon become Zhao Shuo's territory.

The confrontation between Da Song and Zhao Shuo is no longer possible.

As an ally, the two sent secret envoys to talk again, and then Liu Guangshi left Angkor and went to Bagan with some escorts.

After arriving in Bagan, Liu Guangshi and Han Shizhong set off for Padbara after a long night of talking.

In Padbara, the two met Zhao Shuo, and then they both fell to their knees, hoping that Zhao Shuo would become the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.

In the face of the statements of the two, Zhao Shuo just said lightly. "I'm not interested in being an emperor."
