Gao Taotao and Zhao Hao died, and the rest of the younger sons were terrified when they heard the news, and they all committed suicide one after another. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

As for Zhao Zongshi's other living daughters, Zhao Zhao did not plan to delve into it, women were not a threat to the throne, but they were all deprived of their princess status.

In order to draw a clear line with the abolished emperor, the original concubines divorced their wives one after another, and drove the former golden branches and jade leaves out of the house, and most of them ended up desolate. In desperation, the Buddhist nunnery became their only home, and they could only be accompanied by the ancient Buddha of the green lantern for the rest of their lives.

Zhao Zhao ignored it, there is no mercy in this kind of matter, after all, their parents made mistakes first, and the father's debts and children are repaid, which is justified. Especially when it comes to the struggle for the throne, it is necessary to talk about principles, it is already good to leave them alive, as for what kind of life to live, God has the final say.

After ascending the throne, it is natural to have a series of evasive respects, seals and meritorious rewards.

The day after Zhao Zhao ascended the throne, Chai Minyan and others returned. Of course, he claimed to be imprisoned by Zhao Hao and intended to threaten Zhao Zhao, but fortunately, he met the kind-hearted servant Xiaohai, rescued them, and hid in the palace warehouse to be safe and sound.

At this time, the overall situation has been decided, as long as these things can be justified, who will question their true reliability?

Zhao Zhao became the emperor, and his mother-in-law Cao was naturally the queen mother, but how to place her biological mother Lin was a little troublesome.

Prior to this, when the emperor was not a concubine, and both the concubine and the biological mother were both, usually only the concubine was the queen mother, and the biological mother could only be the concubine. In the original time and space, after the death of Song Shenzong, Empress Xiang was the queen mother, but Song Zhezong Zhao Xu's biological mother Zhu was only the concubine. If the mother-in-law is not there, it is okay for the biological mother to be the queen mother.

What should Zhao Zhao do?

Since he was a child, he has been separated from his biological mother Lin for 20 years, and Lin has also suffered a lot for this. Even the Cao family said that the Lin family could not be treated lightly, after all, she was the emperor's biological mother.

Cao's heart knows very well that Zhao Zhao is not her biological after all, although she is now a mother and a son. But you have to think a little more about everything. She is already very old, and she needs to be tactful in doing things, even if she is not for herself, she has to think about the Cao family.

With Cao's support. A little bit of things is much easier. After Zhao Zhao and the Minister of Rites discussed, he respected his mother-in-law Cao as the queen mother, and his biological mother Lin as the queen mother. This title originally began in the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty and appeared in the Great Song Dynasty in advance.

The queen mother of the two palaces is respected, and the different etiquette systems of the concubines have not changed, but highlight the emperor's filial piety. There is nothing bad about this, at least the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty did not object, and the response of the people of the world was also very good.

Subsequently, Zhao Zhao complied with the decree of the Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces, and crowned his wife Chai Minyan as the queen, and several other ladies as concubines. The candidate for the crown prince is naturally Zhao Hong, the eldest son of Empress Chai Minyan.

It's just a kid though. However, the position of the crown prince must be determined, which is related to the return of the country's capital and the stability of the country's society and the people's hearts. Especially if he has experienced some twists and turns and is not inheriting the throne normally, he needs to pay more attention to this aspect. Not to mention. is about to drive the royal expedition, with the prince in charge, always prepared.

Subsequently, all the heroes were rewarded for their meritorious deeds, and they were all happy.

As for the political situation in the court, the situation on the civilian side is fine, with Fu Bi and Wen Yanbo as prime ministers. Ouyang Xiu still prefers to go back to his hometown to retire, and Sima Guang is the governor of political affairs. There are three important ministers in the center of the Great Song Dynasty, and the stability and efficiency are self-evident. Han Jiang still served as a privy envoy, and during the time when Bianjing was guarding against the King of Qin, he was completely idle at home.

The Third Division and the Sixth Division also immediately began to operate, obeying the edict of the new emperor. Follow the three prime ministers to contribute to the Great Song Dynasty. As for the military, the situation is more complicated. Not to mention the box army and the forbidden army in various places, the local government is the core. The three main forces of the main Song Dynasty.

The Western Army is a descendant, and the Beijing camp is now attached, and Guo Kui knows each other very well. Knowing that at this time, firmly grasping the power of the army will be suspicious. Anyway, Kaicheng Toucheng is already a great achievement, and there will be no less glory and wealth, so why make today's officials unhappy?

So he directly resigned from Bianjing's military power and handed it over to Zhao Zhao's descendants. This truth is clear to everyone, and the military power of the capital can only be controlled by the emperor's cronies.

Zhao Zhao is still very satisfied with Guo Kui's attitude. Therefore, he did not snub this general, fought against Jiaozhi in the south, and accumulated a lot of actual combat experience, what the Great Song Dynasty lacked was such a general. Whether it is the war against the Liao State this time, or the war in the south in the future, he is indispensable.

Therefore, Zhao Zhao immediately transferred him to Hebei Road, where the leading power of the army was in the hands of Wu Chong, the Xuanfu envoy. Maybe he had been neutral between Zhao Zhao and Zhao Ji, but after learning that Zhao Zhao had ascended the throne, Wu Chong immediately expressed his surrender. In fact, no matter what, he is an official loyal to the Great Song Dynasty, and he is still trustworthy.

Especially in the recent past, in the face of the menacing Liao army, he handled it very properly. Yelujun vowed to quickly break through the border of the Song army, but so far, he has not moved. And Wu Chong made a great contribution, for which Zhao Zhao issued an edict to encourage and appreciate.

Many of the generals of Hebei Road have a relationship with Wen Yanbo, and now they are naturally attached one after another. In this way, if the power of Wu Chong was limited, the military power of Hebei Road was quite balanced.

The decisive battle with the Liao State was inevitable, and Zhao Zhao originally felt that it would be at least a few years later. But I don't want Yelujun to be so anxious and so fierce. He didn't know why, but since Yelujun was determined, he wouldn't have any fear.

Just go to war!

Since it is a decisive battle, then at least the question of the ownership of the sixteen states of Yanyun must be directly decided, and the problem that has been delayed for more than a hundred years must be resolved.

This is also an opportunity for himself to establish his authority, completely control the Great Song Dynasty, and control the situation in the world, and Zhao Zhao naturally attaches great importance to it.

This is a must. With such a large-scale war, it is not easy for Zhao Zhao to be commanded by anyone, so it is better to go out himself.

It is also to show the determination of the Great Song Dynasty to resist, in addition, it is also for the sake of concerted consideration. The next Hebei Road will inevitably gather soldiers and horses from all walks of life, and the Hebei Road army alone is not enough to deal with the overall situation. It may be possible to defend the city, but if you want to counterattack the Liao State, you must increase your troops.

It is inevitable that the Western Army will be transferred to participate in the war, and the Seed Master Dao and Liu Changzuo are already on the way to catch up with Xiongzhou, in addition to this, Shi Jianfei has been reused by Zhao Zhao. He knew a lot about the combat methods of the Liao army, and it was helpful for commanding the war, and Zhao Zhao was looking forward to his wonderful performance.

In addition, Guo Kui and Di Yong also went to the front line, and even the elderly Yang Wenguang wrote a letter to ask for war, asking to represent the Yang family to fight.

Zhao Zhao felt that he was already old, and although he was old and strong, he couldn't bear to go to the front line to work hard and take risks. At the same time, he was assured that this battle would definitely wash away the shame of the Battle of Taizong's Gaoliang River that year, and avenge the old Linggong Yang Ye. Yang Wenguang was relieved, howling and crying to send off the emperor, waiting for the good news to come.

At the same time, a large number of grain, grass and ordnance were also sent to the front line of Hebei Road in time, and the entire Great Song Dynasty was serving the war.

At the beginning of August, everything was ready, and Zhao Zhao led the army to set off, and the royal army marched to meet the Khitan!
