Chapter 57: Chen Qiao's Mutiny, Yellow Robe

(Thank you Antono for your tip~Thank you Nan Muzi for your advice~)

However, looking at the situation in each country, it is as calm as the surface of the water, but there are waves below.

The young lord ascended the throne, and Zhao Kuangyin, the envoy of the German army, and the senior generals of the forbidden army, Shi Shouxin, Wang Xianqi and other righteous brothers mastered the military power, but who can guarantee that this balance will not be broken.

In addition to these few, there are also veteran generals such as Xiang Gong, Li Chongjin, Li Yun, and Zhang Yongde.

In Kaifeng, several Zaifu above the court have been working hard during this time, and since the emperor was buried, the burden on them is not light, they are just ministers who assist the new emperor, but now in addition to political affairs in the court, other feudal towns are also stationed in this hand with a few festival envoys.

One day, Fan Zhen received a letter from Zheng Qi, the right picker, to him stating his political views.

The letter probably wrote: The lord is weak and the minister is strong, looking at the land of the Central Plains, changing the dynasty, all of them are young and lacking in qualifications, but the festival envoy on the side of the feudal town has a heavy army, if something happens, how can it be good? It is advisable to reduce the military power and protect the country. If not, then the Great Week is peaceful? However, in front of the palace, Zhao Kuangyin was resourceful, had remarkable military achievements, and had a very high prestige. This person must be on guard and not to command the army.

Zhao Kuangyin, although Fan Zhen disagrees with him, but he is still young and lacks qualifications, if there are several people in the forbidden army when Emperor Taizu was there, such as Xiang Xun, Li Chongjin, Zhang Yongde and others, they are all envoys of one party and hold heavy troops, and Zhao Kuangyin is not worried.

Now it is in the heart of Fan Qian, and it is the southwest road to recruit envoys and inspect the arch of the school's master. Xiang Xun this person, outstanding merits, once left in Tokyo, support the affairs of Beijing, and then sat in Huainan, in terms of qualifications and experience are top, now the official to the Taishi, the status is noble, but to guard against this person.

But is it really as Fan Zhen expected? Not really......

In the near future, this balance point is about to be out of balance, and at this time, Zhao Dezhao is concerned about the direction of Songzhou, and he doesn't know what is happening there.

At this moment, in Songzhou City, Zhao Kuangyin is in office every day, and Zhao Kuangyi is either reading or practicing martial arts every day, and by the way, he talks with Zhao Pu about the situation in the DPRK and China.

And one night Zhao Kuangyin, Zhao Kuangyi, Zhao Pu and several others drank in the mansion, Zhao Kuangyin talked about the first emperor Guo Rong, his face was a sad look, and then Zhao Kuangyin continued to pour himself, and after drinking several bowls, his face was red, and he talked about the past from time to time, and after accidentally getting drunk, he spit out the truth, and spit out the words that Emperor Shizong Guo Rong saw a sign in the military tent, and happened to be heard by Zhao Kuangyi and Zhao Pu, they felt very surprised, and checked as the son of heaven, Isn't it my big brother (boss) who is checking now?

Then the two helped the drunk Zhao Kuangyin to the house to rest.

The two of them exited the room, their hearts were uncertain, they all looked at me, I looked at you, and then the two looked at each other and smiled, and went to a hidden place together, talking about things, ready to wait for the opportunity.

After that, judging from the information report of Changchun Hall, Zhao Dezhao grasped some things about his uncle Zhao Kuangyi and Zhao Pu, they had been staying together during this time, and Zhao Dezhao knew that the Chen Qiao Mutiny not far away in history was coming, and he was just making some preparations in secret, as for the things on the surface, he was happy to see Zhao Kuangyi and Zhao Pu promoting this matter, and now as long as he secretly grasps it, everything will be fine if he doesn't let anything go wrong.

In the past few days, Zhao Dezhao still performed his duties, followed Guo Zongxun every day, and did his duty as a scholar.

At night, it was his stage, and countless pieces of information were sent to the Liangcheng Inn, and he was always paying attention.

And at this moment, the land of Jiangnan

Since the first war in Jiangbei, the Tang lost the fourteen states in the north, surrendered to the Great Zhou State, and paid tribute to Kaifeng every year.

In view of this, soon after, the Tang lord Li Jing ordered to take one as ten, mint big money, and then minted one when two coins, this matter in Zhao Dezhao's view is tantamount to bad money to drive out good money, in the long run, the people of Jiangnan live in pain, and the people are afraid of boiling public resentment.

After Zhao Dezhao ascended the throne of the new emperor, he became the emperor's banquet official, and in the Tang Dynasty, the official's vacation system was changed to "ten-day vacation" or "ten-day vacation", that is, officials had one day off every ten days. After that, the five dynasties period continued, and Zhao Dezhao was also among them, after all, he is now a person by the side of the Son of Heaven, and he followed the Son of Heaven at a young age, so he naturally made others very familiar.

Zhao Dezhao also studied under Wang Pu, Wang Pu is now the current emperor of the Son of Heaven, and Zhao Dezhao's father is the former capital of the forbidden army, holding heavy soldiers, so he is naturally the object of stammering and jealousy. However, Zhao Dezhao also knows this, he never offends anyone around him, and his words and deeds are exactly the truth.

……

In mid-August, the weather was cold, and in Kaifeng, Miao Xun found Zhao Dezhao that day, and then talked about the incident again, and Zhao Dezhao asked knowingly: "Mr. Miao, do you really plan to do that?" ”

Miao Xun arched his hand and said: "Little Brother Zhao, didn't I come down from Huashan just to assist the Holy Lord of the Ming Monarch, and there is one in front of me, and the other is now in Songzhou, and now from the celestial phenomenon, the big thing is near, it is better to plan early." And "

Mr. Miao said with a smile, the Holy Lord is not the Holy Lord, the key lies in the common people in the world, but now the situation seems to be changing. It's just that I can only wait for the moment now, but what will add fuel to the fire...... Dezhao is inconvenient. Zhao Dezhao paused, and finally said it.

"Hahaha - Brother Zhao rest assured, if it's inconvenient, I can do it for me, and the so-called big things are not informal. Brother Zhao just can't get over that hurdle. ”

"Thank you Mr. Miao, Mr. Dezhao thanked the people of the world."

"It doesn't matter. The mountain people have their own clever plans, and the little brother can cooperate, and the big thing is decided. Miao Xun said with a smile.

After that, Zhao Dezhao told Miao Xun about the plan, and then Miao Xun united with Wuyongzi, and the two brothers cooperated, and they were about to stage a drama.

Wuyongzi stayed in the capital, and Miao Xun went to Songzhou and met with Zhao Kuangyin, and then Zhao Kuangyin wrote to the imperial court to appoint Miao Xun as a military officer, that is, a staff officer.

Since Miao Xun arrived in Songzhou, he followed Zhao Dezhao's instructions, and then secretly paid attention to the people around Zhao Kuangyin, and tried his best to complete the things entrusted by Zhao Dezhao.

One day, Zhao Kuangyin went out, and Miao Xun pretended to be in the name of Zhao Kuangyin and beckoned the doorman Chu Zhaofu to enter the mansion of the envoy of Songzhou Jiedu. When Chu Zhaofu came, he saw Miao Xun here, and then he had heard of Miao Xun's name before, so he was very respectful to Miao Xun, and he saw that Zhao Dianjian was not there, so he asked: "Miao Junshi, why don't you see Zhao Dianjian?" ”

Miao Xun said: "Brother Gongchen, it is inconvenient for Zhao Dianzhen to come forward now, and he does have something important to discuss." ”

"Oh? I don't know what is difficult about Zhao Dianji? ”

"Alasβ€”this statement begins in the sixth year of Xiande, in April. At that time, when the first emperor conquered the Liao State and returned to Beijing, he found a wooden plaque in the military camp, with five words written on it, and these five words became a heart disease on the head of Lord Zhao Dianjian, and he is indeed in trouble now, and if he is known today, I am afraid that it will be a disaster. ”

Chu Zhaofu was puzzled: "Oh? Why is this happening? And what is written on the wooden sign? ”

"It's not convenient to talk here, so let's go to the hall and say something."

In the hall, Miao Xun said in embarrassment: "Brother Gongchen, the wooden sign reads: Spot check is the Son of Heaven, do you say that Zhao Dianjian is not in a hurry?" ”

"This ...... Miao Junshi is too exaggerated, not a joke. This news is going to be confiscated and exterminated. If that's the case, Gong Chen shouldn't have heard of it today. ”

"Brother Gongchen walks slowly, but this matter is no longer a secret between the brothers of the Zhao Dianjian Society, as for Brother Gongchen, I don't know what to do?"

"This ......"

"This matter is not groundless, even if today's son knows, but now Zhao Dianzhen has the power of the forbidden army, and even the court's ministers have to weigh it carefully, if one day, Zhao Dianzhen is suspicious of the imperial court, I am afraid that the subordinates will be implicated, if you have difficulties today, you should listen to a joke, what kind of character is I Miao Xun Miao Guangyi, you have also heard of it, respect the teacher and help the son of the divination to say: The person who will be the Son of Heaven in the future must be Zhao Dianzhen."

"There is no fault in today's son, but if Zhao Dianzhen becomes the son of heaven, it is actually a good thing, but it is ......"

"Brother Gongchen is afraid that there will be a mistake in the matter, if it is me, I will definitely think about it, but I Miao Guangyi's face-to-face technique, Brother Gongchen will be a big official in the future, Miao Xun will never dare to talk nonsense."

"Mr. Miao's physiognomy technique, Gong Chen has already heard of it. In this case, Gong Chen's heart should be repaid to Zhao Dianjian. ”

"Brother Gongchen is righteous, I thank Brother Gongchen on behalf of the lord." After speaking, Miao Xun respectfully bowed to Chu Zhaofu.

Chu Zhaofu saw Miao Xun turn around in person, he hurriedly helped him up, and said: "Military, don't dare, I Gongchen will definitely go to the soup for Zhao Dianjian, and I will not give up." ”

"Yes." Miao Xun heard this, and smiled on his face, what Zhao Kuangyin didn't know was that Miao Xun tricked him this time.

Then Miao Xun continued to implement Zhao Dezhao's plan.

……

In late August, the summer was hot, and the city of Tokyo was shrouded in a heat wave, that day Zhao Dezhao finally took out a day off to visit his education, business empire and even the dark line, and then discussed with Bai Gucheng to expand the business pattern, since the war in the south of the Yangtze River, all industries are waiting to be developed, this is the opportunity to enter, and the top priority is in the north of the Yangtze River, the city of Yangzhou, this is a semicolon, but the city of Yangzhou, although the old city was destroyed, but the foundation of Yangzhou is still there, and the seeds of commerce sprout quickly.

Zhao Dezhao kept his eyes on this "enclave", which happened to be opposite the Tang Kingdom, separated by a river, adjacent to the prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River, and Jiangning City was not far away.

Bai Gucheng heard it and felt that it was good, now in Jiangnan and Jiangbei, Kaifeng, Luoyang and Hangzhou, Guangwei Group has gained a foothold, and the next step is a great opportunity to enter Jiangnan.

Of course, this matter was handed over to Bai Gucheng to do, and then Bai Gucheng went to Yangzhou.

Since Bai Gucheng left the capital, Zhao Dezhao has secretly developed the power of Changchun Hall, and he has not taken care of education for the time being, and he mainly manages the dark line.

…….

In September, Li Hongji, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, was nicknamed a document, and later abolished Yongtong money (bad currency).

In October, Li Jing issued an edict to change the title of Li Congjia (Li Yu) to the king of Wu, Shang Shuling, governor, and live in the East Palace.

In November, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Emperor Guo Rong of Ruiwu Xiaowen was buried in Qingling, and the temple number was Sejong.

On November 30, Zhao Dezhao received a letter from Bai Gucheng from Yangzhou, saying that he had built a small Guangwei building in the local area, although it was not large, but with the same price and the same service, it won the love of the locals within a few days of opening.

After Zhao Dezhao received the letter, his face was expressionless, which was naturally expected by him.

After that, a small chaos in Shu, the official eunuch of the Southern Han Dynasty was in power, and the Tang Dynasty moved the capital to Hongdu and other small things all came to Zhao Dezhao's ears, but they were all small things.

Among them, the severance of friendship between Liao and Tang, Zhao Dezhao thinks it is a good thing. The Tang State is located between the Jianghuai River, and the Liao is far from the Saibei, the two countries are separated from the Central Plains, and the dynastic changes are frequent, but the Tang State and the Liao have always been friendly and friendly.

The Tang State had developed maritime transportation, and during this period, through the sea road, it went north to the Liao State, and the envoys between the two countries continued.

In December, Liao sent an envoy to the Tang State, and the Tang people feasted the Liao envoy at night, and the Liao envoy drank and changed his clothes, and was killed by the assassins recruited by Jing Han, the regimental training envoy of the Taizhou regiment of the Zhou State.

However, Zhao Dezhao also planned to develop shipping in the future, and spread the ships of the Great Song Dynasty throughout the world continent.

……

At this moment, in Songzhou City, Zhao Kuangyi and Zhao Pu thought that the New Year's Hour was really the time for trouble, and the next plan was as they expected, and at this moment they thought that Zhao Kuangyin must not know.

And Zhao Kuangyin really doesn't know, if he knows, he will definitely have to be admonished, because the Zhao family is in Kaifeng, and usurping the throne is a major matter of extermination, not a joke.

Now on December 23 of the sixth year of Xiande, the cold winter wax moon.

Since Zhao Kuangyi and Zhao Pu learned about it, the two of them have been secretly plotting and preparing to plan a mutiny, so recently, the two of them have often been together.

And they pretended to pass on Zhao Kuangyin's orders and contacted Zhao Kuangyin's colleagues in the forbidden army in the past, such as Shi Shouxin and others.

The new year has arrived, the first month, the day of New Year's Day, the Qianyuan Palace

On the same day, the main hall of the court congratulated the arrival of the New Year, and the Empress Dowager Fu and the young lord Guo Zongxun received the congratulations of hundreds of civil and military officials in the palace, as well as the congratulations of the envoys of various countries, and this year still uses the year name of Emperor Sejong, this year is the seventh year of Hyeonde (960).

After the completion of the court, the royal feast was given in the Guangde Palace, and the ministers congratulated and supported the banquet.

Suddenly, the hall was dark, but some places were still slightly bright, and all the ministers thought that it was darkening, so they all went out of the main hall and saw the wonder of the tengu eating the sun.

Day after day, the sky was dark, the black light was wanton, and the two days finally merged into one, and soon the whole heaven and earth were dark, and the five fingers were not seen.

After a quarter of an hour, the light slowly returned, and then the sky was bright again, and it was very bright, for some reason.

And the minister pointed and pointed, standing outside the hall, stunned, shocked, I don't know whether it is good or bad, the ministers are divided into two factions.

was discussing one after another, and saw that the rafters of the mansion held an eight-hundred-mile urgent military document and hurried to meet the prime minister.

Fan Zhen took it apart and took a look, and he was in a hurry. I saw that the content was that the Liao State contacted the Han and violated the border together, and the Liao soldiers went out of Dingzhou, and the Han soldiers went out of Jingcheng and coerced Zhenzhou.
