After breakfast, Chao Yong came to the Vertical Arch Palace.

When they arrived at the Vertical Arch Hall, Wu Song and Shi Xiu were already waiting there.

Shi Xiu acted as if nothing had happened last night, but Wu Song was a little unnatural when he saw Chao Yong.

After last night, the walker Wu Song was gone again, and he became the tiger Wu Song again.

The generals of the Great Liang also came, all in good spirits, and even the fatigue of the rapid march was washed away by the joy of occupying this majestic city.

Ruan Xiaoqi saw Chao Yong and said: "Prince, I want to sit on the dragon chair, but they all say that sitting on the dragon chair is a rebellion and may lose your head." Do you think I can sit? ”

It turns out that not only is he changing, after the defeat of Tokyo, everyone has changed, and everyone didn't have to worry about losing their heads because of some things that were too polite, because everyone was brothers, especially Chao Gai was even more righteous.

Chao Yong saw that Ruan Xiaoqi was still so playful, and his surname was straight, but he felt that it was rare, and said with a smile: "My father has not ascended the throne yet, so if you want to sit down, go and sit." ”

"I'll just say the prince won't be so stingy."

Ruan Xiaoqi said a word to everyone, then ran up proudly, sat on the dragon chair, looked at the people standing in the audience, and suddenly shouted: "Do you think I look like an emperor?" ”

Everyone in the hall suddenly changed their faces with fright.

Lin Chong shouted: "Xiao Qi, Mo Hu said, come down quickly." ”

Ruan Xiaoqi saw that Lin Chong, who was extremely prestigious, was angry, so he got up stupidly and said with a smile: "This dragon chair is similar to an ordinary chair, but I just sat on it and watched everyone lower a little." ”

Li Kui couldn't help but see it, and said, "I'll sit too." ”

So saying, he walked up there.

Lin Chong hurriedly said: "It's just a chair, it's very easy to sit on." ”

Li Kui smirked: "How can it be the same, that is the emperor's chair, I didn't do the emperor's life, but I sit on the dragon chair today, and I can go back and tell my mother that I Tieniu is the most prominent person in Yishui County." ”

Lin Chongqi said: "Aren't you the most talented person when you become a general?" ”

Li Kui scratched his head and said, "The general may have done it, no one has ever sat on the dragon chair." ”

As he spoke, he ran up, sat on the dragon chair, and pretended to be majestic.

Chao Yong looked at the fierce Li Kui sitting on the dragon chair, and couldn't help laughing.

Chao Yong smiled, and the oppressive atmosphere in the hall disappeared, and everyone couldn't help but laugh when they looked at Li Kui's appearance.

Everyone seems to have returned to the time when Liangshan did not distinguish between dignity and inferiority.

Chao Yong smiled: "Since they are all sitting, you all sit down one by one, if you can't be an emperor, it's good to sit on the dragon chair." ”

Lin Chong smiled and said: "It's too tiring to be an emperor, and you have to worry about war, and you have to worry about political affairs, it's better to be a general, as long as you fight a good battle." If it is the emperor, he still has to think about where the salary and money for the soldiers and horses will come from, and the general only needs to lead the troops to fight. ”

Chao Yong heard Lin Chong say this, and he also felt that the emperor seemed to be inferior to the general, but the Son of Heaven was angry and bled and drifted. As an emperor, the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. How can the general have the emperor's happiness, but this happiness needs to pay more.

It wasn't until no one went to sit on the dragon chair that Chao Yong walked up and sat on the dragon chair.

Looking at the people below who were suddenly shorter, Chao Yong also felt that everyone was much farther away, he didn't like this feeling of being on top, Chao Yong stood up and walked below, and said with a smile: "Sitting on the dragon chair, it seems that you will become a loner all of a sudden, it feels too bad, whoever loves to be the emperor in the future will do it, I will not do it." ”

When Lin Chong heard this, he exclaimed: "King Liang is the crown prince's son, who will do it if you don't become the emperor?" ”

Li Kui also shouted: "Could it be that Brother Chao Gai has a son again?" This Tokyo was laid down by Brother Yong, if Brother Chao Gai is not the emperor, he can only do it by Brother Yong, and when others want to do it, I will kill it. ”

When Chao Yong heard this, he glared at Li Kui and said: "Mo Hu said, my father has no other sons, and whoever he designates as the emperor in the future will be whoever he designates, and whoever dares to make trouble will not be able to get along with me." ”

Liu Tang smiled: "My brother is still the same brother as before, and he won't have any more sons." ”

Li Kui was puzzled: "Brother Chao Gai only has one son, Brother Yong, if he is not the emperor, then who should be, he can't be called an outsider, right?" ”

Chao Yong smiled: "I am not the emperor, but I can give birth to a son, and then let my father directly pass on the throne to my son." ”

Li Kui clapped his hands and said: "Yes, Brother Yong is not good if he is not the emperor, I can go to you if I want to find you for dinner." When you become an emperor, you have to live in this palace, and I heard that the emperor is not invited, and we can't come in yet, which is not good. ”

Lin Chong and the others only thought that Chao Yong was saying it casually, and they didn't take it seriously, so they didn't persuade Chao Yong.

Chao Yong stood in front of everyone and said with a smile: "Okay, let's discuss things like this, we are still Liangshan brothers, everyone can talk freely." ”

Although Chao Yong said this, Lin Chong and other people who had been officials in the Song Dynasty still didn't get up at will, because they knew that there would soon be civil officials to discuss with them, and at that time, as long as they were rude to Chao Yong, those civil officials would impeach them, although Chao Gai would not necessarily deal with them because of this, but there would always be some trouble, and it would even affect everyone's feelings, so it was better to respect Chao Yong from the beginning.

Lin Chong said: "Yesterday, after we entered the city, we controlled the forbidden army of the Song Dynasty, although they confiscated their weapons, but it is always a hidden danger for more than 100,000 people to stay in the barracks, and it is better to reorganize as soon as possible." ”

Chao Yong nodded and said, "You were the head of the forbidden army before, and you also know about the forbidden army, but do you have any good suggestions?" ”

Lin Chong said: "The 200,000 forbidden troops in the city, yesterday the whole city was under martial law, and only more than 100,000 people were gathered, which shows the corruption of the military discipline of the forbidden army. It is these hundreds of thousands of people, of which there are no more than 50,000 people who often participate in the training, except for some craftsmen who work for Gao Yu, most of the others have changed to business. If they still want to take the elite route as before, then these people should let them go for the people. Although the rest cannot be said to be elite soldiers, they are also well-trained soldiers and horses, and as long as they go through some battle formations, they can become elite soldiers sooner or later. ”

Chao Yong said with a smile: "Then let those who have a livelihood do their livelihood, they pay taxes, and the court can have money to pay." ”

Lu Junyi said: "I'm afraid that there will be more cities in the future, and there will be fewer soldiers and horses." ”

Chao Yong smiled: "It's okay, they don't want to be soldiers, they force them to be soldiers, and their combat power is not high, so it's better to recruit new soldiers." ”

Lin Chong nodded and said: "What the prince said is that these people have not participated in the training but have learned some of the style of soldiers, and it takes a lot of effort to train if they want to, so it is better to recruit new soldiers." ”

"Okay, let's do it, disarm, and put the rest together as soon as possible."

Chao Yong settled on this matter, and then said: "Now that Tokyo is in control, my father and they will also move from Qingzhou, but there is also a Xingren Mansion on the road that is controlled by Song Dynasty officials, and we must seize Xingren Mansion before the Qingzhou team arrives, lest they send troops to intercept the emperor." ”

Li Kui said with a smile: "When we came, Xingren Mansion sent troops to stop us, but I was killed for a while and retreated to the city, if I didn't want to come to Tokyo, I would have taken advantage of the situation to rob the city." ”

Lin Chong shook his head and said, "Xingren Mansion must think that we can't break through Tokyo City, but they have to be held accountable if they lose the city." Therefore, he just made a show for Zhao Ji, and did not send all his troops and horses to intercept us. ”

Shi Qian didn't know when he hid on top of the main hall, jumped down as light as a swallow, and squatted in front of Li Kui.

Li Kui was also taken aback and exclaimed, "When did you hide this flea on it, it scared me." ”

Shi Qian smiled: "You haven't sat on the dragon chair, but I haven't been on the roof of the main hall, so I went up to take a look." ”

Chao Yong shook his head and said, "Do you have any news?" ”

Shi Qian nodded and said: "After I arrived in Tokyo with the army, Xingren Mansion sent another army and horses to chase after me, but they were afraid that they would be surrounded and killed by the army, so they just hung far behind. ”

Lin Chong said with a smile: "My army came to fight Tokyo, and passed by Xingren Mansion, Xingren Mansion must be afraid of Zhao Ji's punishment, so he can only send troops to King Qin." However, they did not dare to engage us with any of their soldiers and horses, so they had to hide from afar. ”

Shi Xiu said: "The prince can ask Zhao Ji to write a holy decree, so that the soldiers and horses of Xingren Mansion will be obedient, they will see my Liang Junwei, and there is Zhao Ji's holy decree, or they will surrender directly." ”

Chao Yong then remembered that there was still Zhao Ji to play, and after talking to Zhao Ji yesterday, Zhao Ji also wanted to open, in order to save his surname, he would cooperate.

"Okay, pass Zhao Ji here."

Soon, Zhao Ji was brought in, and saw many generals in the hall, many of whom were once his courtiers, but he didn't pay attention to it, only Xu Ning used to guard in front of the palace before, he was familiar with it after all, but now, he didn't dare to say anything to Xu Ning.

Zhao Ji was confined in a side hall of the palace, originally he thought that he would be lonely for life, because he really didn't dare to ask Liangshan Caokou for a few concubines to serve him, but he didn't expect that Empress Zheng was sent to his place of seclusion last night.

At that time, when he was still King Duan, Empress Zheng was the maid beside the Queen Mother, and he fell in love with Queen Zheng at that time, and it was precisely because he fell in love with Queen Zheng that he often went to the Queen Mother to ask for peace, so that the Queen Mother Xiang thought that he was a well-behaved and filial prince. Therefore, after the death of his elder brother Song Zhezong, the Empress Dowager Xiang let him, a well-behaved and filial prince, inherit the throne. After he became the emperor, he immediately asked Zheng to be a concubine, and after his original queen died, he made Zheng a queen. Because without her, he would not go to the Queen Mother every time to say goodbye, and he would not be able to be the emperor, let alone be happy after being the emperor.

It's just that Empress Zheng has been a little older in recent years, and her skin is not as smooth and tender as before, and he is obsessed with Master Li, and there are many young and beautiful concubines in the palace, so the number of times he goes to Empress Zheng is very small.

However, when he saw Empress Zheng last night, he found that Empress Zheng was still so moving, and Empress Zheng seemed to want to comfort the king of the dead country, so the two of them enjoyed the joy of fish and water last night.

Zhao Ji didn't expect him to be the king of the dead country and be so happy, so after going to the palace, he immediately thanked Chao Yong for his kindness.
