After the First World War from Ogiwahara, floods flooded a large area of land near Tokyo. In recent days, the city of Tokyo has been working hard to drain the flood and rescue the city, and the task has been basically completed so far. It's just that the roads are still muddy, and there are traces of flooding everywhere.

Chu Tianya led the army to Tokyo in batches. The official Zhao Huan led hundreds of civil and military officials and the people of Tokyo to greet each other. On the passage into the city, there is a three-zhang wide embroidered red carpet, winding like a staircase to the sky.

Chu Tianya walked under the banner in a golden armor robe, surrounded by a large number of generals. From a distance, there are endless swords and guns, and the tumbling flags are like the stormy waves on the sea.

When they were still a few miles away, the official Zhao Huan and the others felt a huge and majestic momentum rushing towards them. War horses and armor are like walls, overwhelming!

Zhao Huan, who was already nervous, couldn't help but tremble before such a military situation. At this moment, he hated to death the father who threw a mess to him in a moment of crisis, Emperor Zhao Ji. What's even more infuriating is that just after repelling the foreign enemy, seeing that Chu Tianya was about to enter the court strongly, the Emperor Taishang, under the influence of Zhao Gou, the prince of the Nine Emperors, actually brought a large number of soldiers, horses, money, food and ministers Meiji, and slipped to the south to enjoy Qingfu with oil on the soles of his feet.

Leaving him Zhao Huan a nominal official who specializes in black pots, waiting here to be ravaged by Chu Tianya. He knew with his toes that as long as Chu Tianya entered the court, he, an official, would become a papier-mâché puppet. Not to mention the major affairs of the state, even if it is the appointment of a small official, I am afraid that it will not be his turn to call the shots in such matters.

To be such an official, it is really better to be a peaceful and comfortable person. But there is no shortage of such a puppet here in Tokyo. So, Zhao Ji and Zhao Gou's father and son generously threw this beauty difference to Zhao Huan, on the grounds that it is quite justified - you are an official!

Such a situation seems to be predicted by anyone. So a large number of courtiers fled south with Emperor Taishang and King Kang. Most of them are a group of people who have always been anti-war and peaceful. Pull up the radish and bring up the mud, and when a minister goes, he will follow a group of protégés and henchmen, and then there are the old and the young, the lackeys and servants, the gold and silver treasures, pigs, cows, dogs and sheep...... When the Emperor left Tokyo, it was really spectacular and earth-shattering. If the population of Tokyo City is not less than one million, he will make thousands of people empty. It was as if a plague or military disaster was about to befall Tokyo, and the officials and people fled in a hurry.

How many people left, Zhao Huan and the court didn't have time to count. Zhao Huan only knew that at least half of the civil and military courtiers who should be present today were missing. In fact, the most important thing in the world of the Great Song Dynasty is people, and there are always people who can make up for a few ministers. What Zhao Huan is really worried about is that the trouble between Emperor Taishang and King Kang is tantamount to dividing the court of the Great Song Dynasty into two in the eyes of outsiders. Once in Tokyo and the other in Hangzhou, the situation of the division between the north and the south took shape.

This happened to be with Chu Tianya's thoughts.

Emperor Zhao Ji successively did two things, one was to give way in danger, and the other was to flee south to Hangzhou, which completely hurt Zhao Huan. For his father, who only loves calligraphy and painting, Zhao Huan began to hate him from the bottom of his heart. Especially this time of escaping south, Zhao Huan felt that he was an orphan abandoned in the wilderness by the entire Zhao family, and let him fall into the hands of the enemy family regardless of life or death.

Love is deep, hate is deep.

The once flesh-and-blood affection has now turned into boundless hatred. Zhao Huan's heart was twisted. At this moment, he was even a little pathologically inclined to Chu Tianya - he hoped that Chu Tianya could catch Zhao Ji and Zhao Gou's shameless father and son in Tokyo and slap them in front of them!

There are also many people who fled to Hangzhou after the butt of the Emperor Taishang, they didn't take the real official family of the Great Song Dynasty in their eyes at all, they all deserve to die!

……

Before he saw Chu Tianya, Zhao Huan's heart was churning and thinking a lot. Objectively speaking, Chu Tianya, a warlord leader who started as a bandit, is now about to enter the Beijing regime and tilt the government and the opposition, and Zhao Huan, as an official, should be the most unacceptable person. But as soon as he thought of the matter of the Emperor Taishang, Zhao Huan desperately hoped that Chu Tianya would enter the court as soon as possible!

- It's simply that this official family can't do it, Zhao Song's country is coming to an end, and I can't be the only one Zhao Huan to bear the guilt. Zhao Ji, the emperor who really ruined the country, and the group of sycophants who once followed him, are really damned!

The drums of war rumbled, and the trumpets soared into the sky.

The 200,000 rebels had already marched to the vicinity of Tokyo and were divided into various camps. Chu Tianya personally led the tiger and walked in front of Zhao Huan and the others.

Zhao Huan took a deep breath with a bloodless face, and walked down the dragon chariot tremblingly, about to walk forward to greet Chu Tianya.

A scarlet-robed official screamed and knelt in front of Zhao Huan, screaming with a bang: "The official family stops!" ——How can there be a reason in the world for a king to go down to his vassals? Please join the official family! ”

Immediately, more ministers knelt down in circles to block Zhao Huan, "Please take the official house!" ”

The corners of Zhao Huan's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but laugh, and said in a low voice: "When is it, still stuck to these subsections?" …… I, an official, am I still worthy of your knees? Let's go, follow me, and go to kneel to King Luoyang together! ”

"Wait, I'd rather die than obey!" The officials roared and wailed loudly, "Please come to the office!" ”

The scene was a mess.

Zong Ze and Xu Han couldn't stand it anymore, and the two of them also came forward to persuade: "Please ask the official family to board." If such things are spread, it will also greatly damage the reputation of the official family and the king of Luoyang. With the personality of the king of Luoyang, he will not accept the official family's personal welcome. The king of Luoyang is about to arrive, and such a scene is inevitably embarrassing and embarrassing...... Let's ask the official to board the house! ”

"Hey, okay......" Zhao Huan reluctantly turned around and boarded, and when he turned his head, his eyes were very cold, and he glanced at Zong Ze and Xu Han fiercely, and scolded in his heart: You two villains who sell the lord to seek glory, for the sake of glory and wealth, you have served Chu Tianya, and everything is for his sake, and you don't take me as an official in your eyes at all!

Chu Tianya and the others finally came closer. The soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, and the swords and armor are fierce. An invisible pressure made Zhao Huan and a group of courtiers who were waiting to greet them hold their breath as if they were facing a great enemy, and even their breathing seemed to be a little unsmooth.

"Quick, fast...... Knock on the king of Luoyang! Zhao Huan's hands tightly grasped Long Yuan's handrails and hurriedly said.

A large group of civil and military courtiers either willingly or full of grief and indignation bowed down, and the mountain shouted, "Knock to welcome His Royal Highness the King of Luoyang back to the court!" ”

Chu Tianya rode on a horse and saw the qiē in front of him, and said with a slight smile: "Among this group of people, at least more than seventy percent of the guys want to kill me immediately." ”

"Thinking and doing are always two different things." Jiao Wentong, who was riding a horse for the first time after being seriously injured, stroked his long hair and said with a meaningful smile, "The lord can easily decide the lives of everyone in front of him without thinking; But they can only think about it. ”

"Dismount, face saint!" Chu Tianya shouted, and all the generals and sergeants of the righteous army dismounted.

The sound of neat clothes and armor is majestic and majestic. The group of courtiers kneeling on the carpet were all terrified. Compared with the group of fierce people who came out of the killing field in front of them, no matter how much they learned to be rich, they were only weak bodies without the power to restrain chickens after all.

On the spot, there were many civil officials who whispered and scolded "Pi Yongwufu", or laughed disdainfully in their hearts, believing that the group of people in front of them were all illiterate, and they were only worthy of dancing swords and swords, and they had no interest in their lives.

"Minister, Chu Tianya greets my emperor!" With a loud shout, all the civil and military forces trembled together, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

The generals and soldiers behind Chu Tianya also bowed down together, the mountains shouted long live, the heavens and the earth trembled and the clouds ran, swallowing the mountains and rivers!

The official Zhao Huan couldn't help but sift the chaff all over his body, beads of sweat rolled down his sideburns, his eyes were straight, his heart was blank, and he forgot to speak.

The eunuch who was closer hurriedly reminded in a low voice, "Official, it's time to give King Luoyang a flat body." ”

"Oh! …… Love, love Qing flat, flat! Hurry up! Zhao Huan's lips trembled, and he didn't choose to speak.

"Emperor Xie!" Chu Tianya responded with a fist clenched and stood up suddenly.

Zhao Huan's eyes were stunned and he looked at Chu Tianya from the chariot, and when he saw Tianya's face clearly, he couldn't help but feel his heart shake, as if he had been hit hard!

"This Chu Tianya is so young, and he has to be so delicate and upright!" Zhao Huan was amazed in his heart, "Originally, I thought that a bandit like him should be a bearded man who is over forty years old, with a face full of flesh and banditry, and his chest is uninhibited. But I don't want to be such a young person, and I am a little chic! ”

Many courtiers also quietly raised their eyes to look at Chu Tianya, and after seeing it clearly, they all coincidentally were like Zhao Huan, and they were amazed in their hearts.

"Love...... Qing is really a celestial appearance, young and promising! Zhao Huan finally squeezed out a few words, and embarrassedly squeezed out a smile, "Aiqing defeated the strong captives and turned the tide, helped the country and the mountains and societies to fall, and saved the people of Li from misery, which is really unprecedented in the world." I thought about it again and again, and thought that Aiqing should be in charge of the dynasty to assist me, so that my Great Song Dynasty will be passed down from generation to generation! ”

"The official family has won awards, but the ministers have just done some things." Chu Tianya clenched his fists and replied, "As for joining the court and auxiliary government, Weichen knows that he is too talented to be competent, and he also asks the official family to appoint another person, so as not to miss the major affairs of the court." Weichen is willing to be the pawn of the official family, charging into battle and being born and dying, and the horse leather shroud is returned! ”

"No, no, don't get me wrong, King Luoyang, the military power is still yours!" As soon as Zhao Huan said this, he immediately complained bitterly - isn't this tantamount to openly showing weakness to Chu Tianya and suing all the officials of the Great Song Dynasty in the world, for fear of offending him King Luoyang?

The generals and ministers present heard it, snickering, sighing, and so on. But there is one thing they have seen through - in the future in the imperial capital, only the king of Luoyang will be left.

"That's not what Wechen meant!" Chu Tianya seemed to have noticed nothing, and said solemnly, "Weichen doesn't learn anything, has no skills, and has no ink, and has nothing to do except lead troops to fight." The official family wants to entrust the micro-ministers with the position of auxiliary government, but the micro-ministers are afraid that they will be incompetent, so they only dare to resign. ”

"No...... Let's learn! Learn! Zhao Huan smiled dryly, he really didn't know what to say, so he followed Chu Tianya's meaning and said, "With the extraordinary talent of the King of Luoyang, it will definitely come naturally, and he will be familiar with it as soon as he is ready." ”

A lot of people couldn't help but want to laugh. This is obviously Chu Tianya's excuse for doing scene kung fu, and the official Zhao Huan actually took it seriously.

Of course, no one will think that the official Zhao Huan is a stunned boy who is not familiar with the world at all. He's just, too nervous, and his mind goes blank.

Chu Tianya almost couldn't hold back his laughter, the corners of his mouth quietly picked up the evil spirit, and he hugged his fists and said, "That Weichen...... I have to be respectful and obey my fate! ”

"Good, good. Aiqing no longer shirks, it is the best. Zhao Huan was still relieved, "I have already ordered Zong Ze, Xu Han and others to choose the Taishi Mansion for the King of Luoyang, and they are ready to take office, just waiting for the King of Luoyang to take office." In addition, a feast has been prepared in the palace to celebrate the achievements of the King of Luoyang and his heroes! Please also ask the king of Luoyang and all the soldiers not to shirk, but to come to the banquet together. ”

"Thank you for your kindness. Thanksgiving! Chu Tianya responded in one bite. Although he was not interested in this kind of royal feast, many people behind him, especially Cao Cheng and others, were also dreaming of entering the palace to have a look. Being able to eat a royal feast is simply a great thing for them to have green smoke from the ancestral tomb, which is enough to glorify their ancestors.

"That'...... Just, please invite the king of Luoyang to Beijing! Zhao Huan said loudly.

In accordance with the agreed "procedure", the civil and military officials and the sergeants of the common people began to cheer loudly, drums and colorful flags fluttered, and they fell into an extraordinary bustle from the place of meeting to the city of Tokyo.

Chu Tianya got on the horse and entered the city of Tokyo with Jiao Wentong, Yue Fei, Cao Cheng and other generals. Vermilion Bird Xuanwu and other Qingwei protected Chu Tianya inch by inch. Tang Ang and Anu led the tiger and surrounded Chu Tianya and the official family's team in three layers inside and three layers outside, and the water was impassable. The forbidden guards sent by Zong Ze can only guard the side of the road or open the way in front.

Hu Ben and the forbidden army stand together, even a military layman like Zhao Huan can see their advantages and disadvantages at a glance. Obviously, the well-dressed and neatly draped forbidden army is far shorter than the tiger in terms of momentum. These military masters who show off their martial arts on weekdays saw Chu Tianya's Tiger Ben Qinxun, just like a cat seeing a mouse, and they all shrank up and didn't dare to breathe. On the other hand, those tiger soldiers, they don't seem to have any merit from the appearance of the cloth, but they are all introverted and full of spirit, and their fighting spirit is high. For the rest of their lives, they all have a natural evil aura on their bodies. When all the congregations and tigers gathered together, it was a powerful and incomparable aura, so that people outside the circle did not dare to look at it directly.

"The soldiers under Aiqing's command are really the division of tigers and wolves!" Zhao Huan couldn't help but praise on the dragon chariot.

Chu Tianya rode a horse next to Long Yuan, smiled and hugged his fists and said: "These are all warriors who protect the territory and the people, and they are not owned by Weichen. They are the warriors of the official family and the warriors of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Zhao Huan finally felt a little comforted in his heart when he heard this, and nodded and praised: "Aiqing, you are really a loyal minister!" ”

Zong Ze was also careful, and arranged the camp of Chu Tianya's personal guard Tiger Ben Army not far from the Taishi Mansion. Nearby, there is the place where Zong Ze's henchman team stays. Three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, it is even stricter than the security of the palace.

Rao is like this, Suzaku and the others still don't dare to relax for a moment. They know very well that at this moment of sudden change in the situation and the reconstruction of the imperial court pattern, it is the most dangerous. I don't know how many people want to kill Chu Tianya and prevent him from entering the government. This absolute conflict of fundamental interests is often even more tragic than the revenge of killing one's father.

From the moment they entered the city of Tokyo, Suzaku and the others found no less than twenty suspected assassins in the vast crowd of onlookers. It's just that the forbidden army and the tiger ben, coupled with the layers of martial law of the Qingwei, make these people have no way to start at all.

Passing by the Taishi Mansion, Chu Tianya temporarily bid farewell to the official Zhao Huan. After an appointment, take the generals to the palace for a banquet. Zhao Huan racked his brains to praise Chu Tianya again, repeatedly told him that he must come to the banquet, and then left with a group of courtiers.

Zong Ze stayed on behalf of the official family to comfort Chu Tianya and a group of heroes.

Chu Tianya saw the famous Zong Ze in history for the first time, and the white-haired old man who was respected by the Jurchens as "Grandpa Zong" first gave him a fist, "I have heard the name of the Zongfu for a long time." The demeanor of the old general is really convincing. The younger generation is polite! ”

"Taishi, this is to torment the subordinates." Zong Ze hurriedly took three steps back and returned the salute with a fist.

Chu Tianya looked up, the three words "Taishifu" were still fresh, and he couldn't help laughing: "I am young and ignorant, where can I do Taishi?" This position should be held by the Zongfu before it is appropriate. ”

"How dare the ministers, the master is really too humble!" Zong Ze hurriedly said, "Master Chu is young and has a high merit in the world, and he is worthy of the emperor's master. In the future, I hope that the Taishi of Chu will take charge of the dynasty and assist the official family, so that the world of the Great Song Dynasty will continue to flourish for thousands of years! ”

"Okay, then borrow the auspicious words of the sect!" Chu Tianya smiled and summoned behind him, "Pengju!" ”

"The subordinates are here!" Yue Fei stepped forward.

Zong Ze stroked his bright beard and smiled, "Okay, good!" Maxima finally met the Bole of his life! ——Yue Fei, Taishi Chu trusts and respects you so much, you must do your best, don't live up to Taishi's expectations and waste your skills! ”

"The last general, I can't sleep at night, I don't dare to slack off!" Yue Fei's voice was like thunder.

Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Zongfu, I specially want to thank you solemnly today for recommending a talent like Pengju to me. Thousands of troops are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find. A young talent like Pengju must have a broader field for him to display his talents and repay his losses. I think so, now that the court pattern is newly established, it is the right time to employ people. In the Privy Council, where the Zongfu is located, can there be a position appointed to a meritorious talent like Pengju? ”

As soon as Zong Ze heard this, his heart naturally lit up - it was clear that Chu Tianya was asking him how the imperial court was going to reward this group of heroes and fierce generals under the command of King Luoyang.

Zong Ze stroked his hair and smiled: "Such matters should be decided by the official family, and the Taishi came to ask the minister?" …… It's just that the old minister has heard about this matter a little, and the official family has already prepared a holy decree for promotion. If Jun means, the master will know later. The old minister could only say...... That will definitely not disappoint the Grand Master! ”

"Haha, good!" Chu Tianya laughed heartily, "With the words of Zongfu, I am relieved - everyone, please come to our mansion to sit down for tea!" ”
