Chapter 701: Fire Phoenix

readx;

Zhao Zhao was very fortunate to enter Bianjing City before Zhao Xu's so-called enthronement ceremony. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Just like Gao Tao's wishful thinking, once Xiao Zhao Xu ascended the throne, he was stained with the name of the emperor, although his ancestors and fathers were not right, but after all, they left a mark in history.

How does it end? Let Zhao Xu give way to himself?

Grandpa seizes his grandson's throne? This is not good, even if the reason is clear, but if it is not kept, some people will misunderstand, and a few more scribbles in the wild history notes, a hundred years later, above the green history, where is there still innocence at all?

If Gao Taotao is putting on a posture of taking the initiative to give way, how should he respond? Do you have to thank him for his high wind and bright festival? And then give the abolished emperor Zhao Xu a good treatment? In the following decades, when sons and even grandsons succeeded to the throne, they should beware that he and his children and grandchildren would not be at peace when they slept......

Are you kidding?

When the ultimatum was first issued, it was made clear that if it was abdicated in the name of Zhao Ji, then there would be no problem, it could be tolerated, and they could be treated favorably.

It's a pity that Zhao Ji insisted on it until his death and always retained the emperor's name. If you care so much, you will lose it completely. The ultimatum says so, if it is not implemented, will it not damage the prestige and credibility of the King of Qin?

It is when the king is in the world, what is most needed is to convince the courtiers, and Zhao Zhao doesn't mind using Gao Tao as a model.

If you are willing to gamble, you should admit defeat, no wonder yourself!

As for Zhao's sons......

Taking advantage of Shi Jianfei's time to inform the hundred officials, Zhao Zhao decided to secretly go to the Funing Hall first.

When he stepped into this palace that belonged to the Empress of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Zhao saw that Empress Xiang was holding a few and still trembling.

One of the older children wore a yellow robe. It seems to be a miniature version of the dragon robe. He should be Zhao Xu! If you don't go into the city yourself. He will be carried by his grandmother and sit on the dragon chair of the Great Song Emperor.

It's a pity that he doesn't have a chance, but the little guy is not sorry and is having fun. He didn't know the danger at all, on the contrary, he was a little excited and curious, and his innocent eyes looked at Zhao Zhao who came over, and smiled lightly, revealing his snow-white baby teeth. It's cute!

For the greeting of this cute child, Zhao Zhao also smiled.

Xiang Empress was extremely frightened in her eyes, and subconsciously took the child into her arms, and her trembling calves betrayed the fear in her heart.

She can't be afraid, King Qin has already entered the city, and now he has stepped into the palace, and the throne is already his. Then the original crown prince, the son of the previous emperor, will undoubtedly become an obstacle or threat to shake his throne. According to the tradition, it is certain that it will be dealt with quickly. This kind of thing is not negotiable.

I hate the queen in my heart! She complained a little about her mother-in-law, Gao Tao, and her husband was willing to agree to King Qin's ultimatum. But she insisted on going her own way. Four young children were brought to the funeral. After complaining, it was her duty, and she blamed herself for being too cowardly, and she had no ability to compete with her mother-in-law, and she didn't even have the courage to fight.

Seeing Zhao Zhao walk in, Empress Xiang naturally thought that the children's lives had come to an end. Maybe his daughter can survive, but these boys are afraid of ......

"Uncle Huang, please spare a few children, they are innocent!" Xiang Queen's pounce knelt down in front of Zhao Zhao, kowtowing tearfully and pleading. Now it's too late, and all that can be done is to plead for mercy. Whether there is a chance or not, Empress Xiang wants to give it a try.

Zhao Zhao didn't answer directly, he glanced at it, and said lightly: "Of the three, one is not there, is it Zhao Ji?" ”。

He ...... He ...... "to the queen to do nothing." That was the last hope, and maybe the husband's children could only keep this one.

"In the north of Dongjia Lane, Xuanhua Fang, south of the city, there are two big willow trees in front of the door!"

Zhao Zhao's words were like a thunderclap on the ground, completely shattering the last bit of hope and confidence for Empress Xiang.

"Uncle Huang, please, leave a way for the child to live!" Queen Xiang is really scared, if all four children are finished, her husband will be cut off. In the future, how to explain to him when he comes to the Yellow Spring?

"The way of life, do you think they can only be the way of death?". Zhao Zhao snorted coldly: "In your eyes, this king is such a person? ”

"Uncle Huang......" shook the queen's body, as if she heard hope, and immediately looked at Zhao Zhao in amazement, as if in disbelief, and only after a long time did she say tentatively: "Uncle Huang, do you mean that you will let them go?" ”。

At the end of the words, Queen Xiang burst into tears again, but this time it should have been tears of joy.

"Childish and innocent, how can I do it?" Zhao Zhao's words are not false at all, if you want to ascend the throne, you need to be ruthless. But he really can't do it with a few young children, which is contrary to humanity and the most basic conscience. So in this matter, Zhao Zhao was willing to make some woman-like moves.

The thirty-seven ministers were destroyed, and he was already a little uneasy in his heart, so when he came to Zhao Ji's sons, he couldn't harden his heart. Especially seeing their innocent smiles, he made his sons sound like they were at this age. And the attitude to the queen, shouldn't it give this sincere mother a little comfort?

It's okay to be kind, but you have to deal with it thoroughly, and it's not good to leave yourself with hidden dangers.

"Uncle Huang is willing to give them a way out?" Xiang Queen's eyes burst into tears, perhaps crying with joy, and there was a little more surprise on her incredible face.

Zhao Zhao said in a deep voice: "It's not this king who gives them a way out, I don't count this matter alone, it's you, it's the people of the world who are willing to give them a way out!" ”

"My nephew and daughter-in-law are stupid, please make it clear to Uncle Huang?" Empress Xiang's eyes were a little confused, he obviously didn't understand the connotation of Zhao Zhao's profound words.

Zhao Zhao said frankly: "You should know what it means to be the sons and nephews of the previous emperors, whether they have their own ambitions or speculative villains taking advantage of their identities, it is a terrible thing, and I don't want future troubles." ”

Xiang knew to the queen that the most direct way to relieve the future troubles was to slaughter, and since Zhao Zhao said that he would give him a way out, he would definitely not do this. It's just where is the way to live?

Zhao Zhao sighed: "So, in the end, it made people completely break this thought, do you understand?" ”。

"Uncle Huang, what should I do?"

"You know what? I was outside the city a few days ago, if I can break the city, what do I want Zhao Ji to do the most? ”。

"Surrender?"

"Surrender or kill yourself!" Zhao Zhao said: "I don't want to leave a provocative rhetoric for the people of the world, I don't want someone to come out under the banner of him or these children in the future, don't leave people with the opportunity to use you and these children, do you understand?" ”。

"Uncle Huang wants me to ......" Empress Xiang seemed to understand something.

Zhao Zhao said in a low voice: "For example, the Funing Hall burned to ashes in the fire or something...... Although it was renovated two years ago, I don't like it, so I want to renovate it, how clean it is, it's a lot more convenient! ”

"Yes, and then?" Empress Xiang's voice trembled a little, how this fire burned was too important.

"You can stay, your daughter can stay, and you can even give her a good background in the future." Zhao Zhao said: "But these four boys must let the outside world think that they died in the fire." But...... From now on, you will never see them again, and they will never know where they come from. ”

"Ah......" Zhao Zhao understood what she meant, and when she thought of the separation of flesh and blood, Empress Xiang was still a little scared.

Zhao Zhao smiled: "Don't worry, I will guarantee their safety, let them grow up safely and live happily, what do you think?" ”

Queen Xiang was a little hesitant, after all, the child was leaving, and she was still a little worried.

"Believe me, then make a deal, this is the only solution." What Zhao Zhao gave was a standard contract, and there was only the choice of signing or not signing, and there was no room for negotiation of the content of the contract.

Xiang Empress hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Huang's character naturally needs no doubt, if Uncle Huang wants them to die, he can do it without much effort, why do you have to say so much to me?" And such a fake feeling, what a lot of trouble? So my nephew and daughter-in-law believe in you, please ask Uncle Huang to treat a few children kindly, and I am grateful! ”

"Don't worry, no matter what, they are all descendants of Taizong." Zhao Zhao sighed lightly and said, "The things here will be handed over to you, and someone will come to handle these things later, and wait for a few children to leave." You can say goodbye to them for a while, but before that, you have to find a scapegoat, don't mess with me, your reputation, you know? ”。

"Yes!" Kneel and kowtow to the queen, and when he looked up again, Zhao Zhao's footsteps were already far away.

Queen Xiang burst into tears, happy that she had won a chance to give birth to several children. But...... She stepped forward to look at each child's smiling face, caressing their tender little faces, trying to remember them. The children are about to leave themselves, and this is the last time I see them, and I can't get enough of them at this time.

Zhao Xu's innocent little eyes rolled around, looking at Queen Xiang and smirking, completely unaware that the mother and son were about to separate.

"Child, watch it carefully, remember the appearance of the mother......"

As soon as the words came out, Queen Xiang hurriedly shook her head and said, "No, never remember what Niangniang looks like, don't remember who Niangniang is, don't remember who you are." Although the heavens are different, the mother will love you and only hope that you will grow up safely! ”

After the guards of the Mingyue Sect took the child away, Xiang Empress silently walked to the candlestick, and with a gentle push, the fire oil was sprinkled on the curtain. The flames first dimmed, but they were not extinguished, and then they rose to a high level, engulfing the entire Funing Hall in an instant.

And Empress Xiang never walked out, just stood silently in the hall, like a fire phoenix. With a faint smile on her lips, she could finally go to meet her husband with peace of mind......

The flames danced, and Queen Xiang seemed to see a few children smiling at her, so innocent, so cute. The child's innocent smile echoed in his ears, and the fire phoenix slowly closed his eyes...... (To be continued......)
