The back garden of the old house of Puwangfu is famous in Beijing for the weeping willows on the shore and the green lotus in the water.

You can see the weeping willows from afar, and the water pavilion in the pond of the green lotus up close, which is connected to the shore by only a rainbow bridge, and the scenery is even more chic.

Therefore, every spring and summer, there are many drinking feasts in the water pavilion. On the Hongqiao, there is an endless stream of servants and maids.

But in today's Water Pavilion, except for the bloodline of Zhao Yunrang, the king of Pu Anyi, there is no one else.

The most noble group of Zhao disciples in the world were sitting in the hall on the ground floor, but no one spoke.

Even the eyes do not intersect with other people, almost every one of them looks at the nose, nose, mouth, mouth, and heart, and is full of bodhisattva appearance.

Zhao Zongyou, who was sitting close to the lower head, looked at the left and looked at it, and after getting the news, it was he who called the brothers and nephews. The people who were invited must have been worried in their hearts so they came, but when they arrived, they all pretended to be dumb. Thinking about it, there was a burst of fire in his heart: "Talk? Twenty-two? Are you really asleep?! ”

Zhao Yunrang, the deceased king of Pu'anyi, gave birth to a total of twenty-two sons, of which the thirteenth son succeeded Renzong as the emperor, and Zhao Zongyou was his twenty-first son.

Zhao Zonghan, who was ranked twenty-two, yawned, he was the eldest and the emperor's uncle, but he would rather pretend to be old and confused, "What to say?" ”

"Say what?" Zhao Zongyou smiled angrily, "There is no son of heaven, no queen mother, and a few prime ministers have brought the courtiers over for a court meeting." What do you say they're going to do? ”

"Can we still kill all of our clans?" Zhao Zonghan was lazy, "Since this is not the case, why don't you wait and see with peace of mind." And, didn't it say that there would be a parliament? ”

Zhao Zongyou rushed back angrily, "Do you believe it?!" ”

'The devil believes. Zhao Zonghan muttered and didn't say anything.

Zhao Zongyou said angrily, "Those rebellious ministers and thieves are not running any parliament at all. At this juncture, if it is not a matter of discussing the abolition of the establishment, what else can it be? ”

"Uncle Twenty-One, please be cautious." Zhao Zhongluan, who was sitting a little lower, hurriedly reminded.

Zhao Zongyou was like eating gunpowder, "What else do you pay attention to at this time?!" ”

Zhao Zhongluan was very helpless. He is Zhao Yunrang's eldest grandson, and he is older than Zhao Zongyou.

But the young and the young are orderly, and the title of King Pu is still passed down among his uncles, and it can't fall into his hands, and he can't suppress Zhao Zongyou when he speaks.

"It's clear that you want to set up another new king, but the leaders can't do it alone, and they don't want to have a bad reputation, so they gang up." Zhao Zongyou was indignant, patted a few cases, and asked Zhao Zonghan, who started the case, "Twenty-two, what do you say?" ”

Zhao Zonghan rolled his eyes.

Among the brothers, he Zhao Zongyou is young, and his nephews are not qualified to be named by Zhao Zongyou, so he is all unlucky.

"Twenty-one." Zhao Zonghui, who was sitting at the top, couldn't look at it and opened his eyes.

Zhao Zonghui is the eldest of the sons of Zhao Yunrang, the king of Pu Anyi, who is still alive now, and he is also the current heir of King Pu.

Zhao Zonghui said: "Even if the ministers want to abolish the Son of Heaven, only Xiaozhe can take over the throne." ”

If Zhao Xu abdicates, in terms of kinship, only Zhao Hao's eldest son Zhao Xiaozhe is the most suitable. But if the prime ministers want to abolish the establishment, they will never choose people so logically.

Zhao Zongsheng, who ranked ninth, turned the green jade wrench in his hand: "If Xiaozhe succeeds to the throne, how should the Queen Mother deal with herself?" If the queen mother plans to succeed to the throne by a son for the first emperor, then Xiaozhe's eldest son is an obstacle. ”

"Brother Jiu is right." Zhao Zongyue, who was ranked twelfth, nodded, "But if you want to succeed, you won't choose Xiaozhe's younger brothers, it's too close." ”

Zhao Zongyue didn't say it clearly, but what he meant, everyone here understood, it was all their brothers' troubles.

Yingzong made a mess back then, and the Queen Mother and the Prime Minister will definitely learn from it. So when it comes to succession, Zhao Hao's sons lost their childhood, but most of them will inevitably promote Zhao Hao in the future. In such a situation, it is inevitable that the relatives are too close.

Several brothers spoke back and forth, and after saying the words thoroughly, Zhao Zonghui looked at Zhao Zongyou: "Since it is not Xiaozhe, and it will not be his brother, then we can only pick people in our room." Twenty-one, is this what you want to talk about? ”

Indeed, this is the reason, the nephew is too close, and the far one has to come out of the five suits, but the descendants of the Pu Wang line, who are not close and not far away, are more suitable.

"My family has few sons, and the family property is enough." Zhao Zonghan half-opened and half-closed his eyes, weak, "Brother Twenty-one, such a good thing can't be your turn or me, when the thirteenth brother was embraced." When is it raised, and when is it adoptive? Lao Tzu is still alive, his son has passed the past, do you still want Lao Tzu to kneel to his son? ”

Youngjong has been held since birth. In the palace, I want to touch the joy of King Pu's family of many sons and grandchildren. At that time, there were two other clansmen with a large number of brothers and sisters who were kept in the palace.

And Yingzong was officially appointed as the crown prince, but even a son was born. At that time, Yingzong, Zhao Zongyou, and Zhao Zonghan's father, Zhao Yunrang, were no longer alive.

After speaking, Zhao Zonghan narrowed his eyes again, shrunk back in the chair, and took a nap. He didn't dare to mix things up with such a terrible thing.

There is only one piece of meat, and there are many people who want to eat meat, and there are many people who guard meat. One is not good, and if you can't eat meat, you will get into a commotion. What's more, as long as the family doesn't die, this meat will definitely not be edible.

In this way, it has to be pasted up, how far does this profit make Zhizhi dizzy?

Dozens of eyes looked at Zhao Zongyou, waiting for his words.

There was a crisp bang, broken porcelain splashed, and the celadon tea cup shattered into thousands of pieces in the center of the hall.

Zhao Zongyou smashed the teacup in anger and swelled. With a red face, he pointed to his heart, "What are you all thinking?" Will I, Zhao Zongyou, be so confused? ”

He never thought of getting on the throne, and Zhao Zongyou knew that as long as he was alive, his son would have no chance at all. What he was worried about was that the power of the courtiers with foreign surnames was getting bigger and bigger, so that the Zhao family's status was not guaranteed. The Chai family is a state guest, where can it compare to the clan?

A piece of sincerity was misunderstood by the brothers, and Zhao Zongyou shouted angrily in the hall, "Whether the official family killed his father back then, looking at the current situation, most of them can't be true." Now that group of rebellious ministers and thieves are going to use this as a reason to abolish the official family, if they are done, will our clan relatives still have a foothold in the future?! ”

"Twenty-one." Zhao Zonghui's white eyebrows didn't even move, "Do you have any soldiers in your hands?" Does anyone listen to what is spoken? The queen mother, the prime minister, and the courtiers all had to speak about this matter, but we and other clan relatives couldn't speak. If we really force our mouths, a basin of water for washing pens will drive us out. ”

At that time, Zhenzong was seriously ill, Renzong was young, and the eight kings Zhao Yuanyan stayed in the palace in the name of asking questions. Li Di, the prime minister at that time, took an ink pen and soaked it in the hot water sent to the eight kings, which made Zhao Yuanyan think it was poisonous water, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly left the palace.

Everyone knows this allusion, that is, which emperor does not know, those courtiers will also sue the emperor, the clan relatives are like eagles and wolves, and the courtiers are reliable loyal dogs.

But now, the clan relatives are weak and powerless, and the prime minister is manipulated both inside and outside the Jingshi.

Zhao Zongyou was indignant, "What if there are rebellious ministers and thieves who want to seek the dynasty and usurp the throne?" ”

"Then I have to fight for this old life."

Zhao Zongyou had a cold face, "Twenty-one I'm afraid that the third brother won't be able to get it if he wants to fight hard at that time." ”

The erector is unbearable!

Coming out of the old mansion, Zhao Zongyou was furious, and this sentence kept echoing in his heart.

His own brothers are all waste, just watching the rebellious ministers and thieves go to dig the foundation of the Zhao family's world.

If you can abolish it once, you can abolish it twice, and sooner or later the Zhao family will become the Cao family, just waiting for Su, Zhang, and Han, which one can become the Sima family.

The car stopped, and Zhao Zongyou didn't wait for his companion to open the door, and pushed the door to get out of the car.

Seeing the environment outside the car, his eyes suddenly shrank.

It's not your own home, it's ...... Kaifeng Province.

The main hall of Kaifeng Mansion is too conspicuous.

How could he come here, Zhao Zongyou was shocked in his heart.

Look at the driver in front of you, when did you change someone? and the companion standing on the foot of the car door, who was nowhere to be seen.

In order to act secretly, he went to the old mansion in a simple car, and even the coachman only brought three people, but he should not have disappeared silently.

"What's going on?"

Zhao Zongyou settled down and asked the strange coachman in front of him in a deep voice. The coachman turned around and got out of the car, and said with a smile, "The villain is ordered by the king's mansion to ask the county king to discuss important matters." ”

Zhao Zongyou said angrily: "It's Wang Juqing?!" ”

One person replied, "It's down there." ”

Zhao Zongyou turned around abruptly and saw the Kaifeng prefect of this term. He was furious, "You dare to hold your clan relatives hostage, you are going to rebel!" ”

"Rebellion?" Wang Juqing shook his head, "It's not Juqing who wants to rebel, it's the king." There are witnesses, there are physical evidence, and please ask the king to be honest. The queen mother can still save some face for the king. When it comes to the three-hall trial, there will be no decency. ”

"What kind of witness?!" Zhao Zongyou was shocked and angry: "You want to frame a crime? ”

He wants to protect his nephew's position, when is he going to rebel!? Who is so bold as to dare to frame the people of the Pu Wang family?

Wang Juqing glanced back, and one person turned out from the back of the hall.

Zhao Zongyou's eyes widened for a moment, and he gritted his teeth, "Zhao Shijiang!" ”

Zhao Shijiang ignored him and bowed his hand to Wang Juqing, "I've seen the mansion." ”

Zhao Shijiang acted like this, not admitting it, but also admitting it.

Zhao Zongyou's blood surged into his brain, and his eyes were blood-red, "Zhao Shijiang?!" You dare to collude with outsiders to harm my clan, are you crazy? ”

As soon as Wang Juqing waved his hand, the two officials immediately came out and dragged Zhao Zongyou away, and did not forget to take a rag to block Zhao Zongyou's mouth.

Wang Juqing saluted Zhao Shijiang, "This matter, then please ask the prince." ”

Zhao Shijiang nodded, looked at the direction in which Zhao Zongyou was dragged away, and seemed ashamed, but his expression became cold and hard.

He still remembered his brother Zhao Shiju.

The two kings don't let people worry, and Emperor Xizong wants to kill chickens to show monkeys. But it's not good to kill anyone, but the descendants of Taizu's family are pulled out to be chickens.

One of the charges is to claim to be a Taizu, so there is a rebellion. The blood is passed down, and the appearance is of course similar. Do you want to rebel if you look like it?

Zhao Shijiang was originally a good Jockey Club leader, but soon after this case, he could only retire and return home.

The story of the candle shadow axe, outsiders may not believe it, but the Taizu family believes it completely. If Emperor Taizu hadn't been killed, how could he be so aggrieved now?

Punish someone as a warning to others.

It's time for a different family to make chickens.
