Syllable!

Zhao Yuanwei slammed the newspaper full of articles condemning him on the table, he never thought that his fanfare and publicity, and even Cao Can's search for him could not compete with a small newspaper.

Zhao Yuanwei, who was born in the royal family, will not understand that the common people really have no special feelings about who the emperor is to tell the truth, as long as you can make us eat and dress warmly, it doesn't matter to them whether you are the boss of the Zhao family, the second, or the third.

Wu Zetian has been the emperor for more than ten years, and the people who really oppose him are nothing more than people in the temple, who cares if the people who sit in that seat are given to women. During her reign, no one jumped out and said that because you are a woman, no matter how good we are, we will still oppose you.

Born in the Song Dynasty, Zhao Yuanwei may have been more affected by the melee of the five generations of warlords and the yellow robe of Song Taizu, and the people at the lowest level did not play a decisive role in these things.

And Zhao Weiji is different, the soul in his body was born in the Celestial Empire, and the influence on him is more about who and how the scarlet group won the country by earning the hearts of the people.

Zhao Weiji knows too well how important the people's support is to the huge impact on a country.

The difference in emphasis has led to differences in the means of propaganda and has led to the current situation.

But in fact, Zhao Yuanwei still has another point that he hasn't figured out, that is, he thinks that his propaganda can make him have righteous support. In this way, the whole court should support themselves.

But let's not talk about whether Zhenzong was intentionally killed, even if it is, most of the officials in the court have been moved by the cake given by Zhao Weiji, and righteousness in front of interests is a fart, if everyone is a saint, then this country will not need the imperial court.

Until now, Zhao Yuanwei has not figured out what those people were sentenced for.

But it didn't matter anymore, he was now blocked under the Daimyo's mansion, and he couldn't move forward at all. And the army of the imperial court to quell the rebellion has also arrived, and at this moment Li Jiguang is rushing to the Daimyo's Mansion with 30,000 horses and ten cannons, and will arrive in less than ten days.

Originally, I thought that the northern states had just been ravaged by the Khitan iron hoof. There shouldn't be much resistance. But Zhao Yuanwei thought wrongly, under Zhao Weiji's propaganda, Zhao Yuanwei, the kind of person who holds heavy troops but does not want to serve the country, aroused the unanimous hatred of both the people and officials along the road.

Especially these places that have just been attacked by the Khitan. even regarded Zhao Yuanwei as the same as the Khitan dog thief. Or even worse characters.

The resistance to him was unusually strong. Add to this the effect of a very rapid morale that has also been affected and thus declined, and the combat effectiveness of the army can only be described as low and pitiful.

Now it is estimated that if Zhao Yuanwei orders the withdrawal of troops, the soldiers in this army will be able to run so much that they can't even see the shadow of a person the next day.

barely survived until the arrival of Li Jiguang.

Originally, with Li Jiguang's prestige, the rebel soldiers were basically scared. In addition, he brought ten cannons, and in the intention of shock, Li Jiguang fired a few shots at the dirt slope not far away, and directly leveled the dirt slope.

After seeing this scene in front of them, the rebel soldiers were completely frightened, and a mutiny occurred in the rebel camp that night.

Zhao Yuanwei and his other high-level officials, who were discussing what to do next in the big tent, were suddenly restrained by the soldiers who rushed into the tent, and then tied up.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Yuan, who was tied up by Wuhuada, roared hysterically.

"Lord, give me a way to live, you don't know that you already hate people's hearts. Besides, didn't you see the magic weapon that General Li brought? That's what can raze the hills, isn't it also a gift for our brothers to rush up? I don't fight this kind of battle that doesn't have any divine calculations. ”

Just hearing this didn't make Zhao Yuanwei very discouraged, but when he heard the small muttering of the other soldiers on the side, he was completely dead.

"I still want to compete with the army that just defeated the Khitans, to put it mildly, with the help of such divine weapons, even if King Wu Yue really murdered the first emperor, how many people can match it."

……

Early the next morning, as soon as the morning dawned, the rebels erected a lowering flag, escorted Zhao Yuanwei and others, who were tied up, and walked over to the camp of the Northwest Army.

"General, the other party has surrendered." The scout in charge of the investigation saw this scene and immediately came back and reported to Li Jiguang.

Li Jiguang smiled slightly when he heard this: "I already knew that they would surrender, let's go and accept the surrender together." ”

After saying that, Li Jiguang stood up, straightened his clothes and walked outside the camp.

It turned out that the reason why Zhao Weiji asked Li Jiguang to come out with ten cannons was not because he was afraid that Li Jiguang's Northwest Army would not be able to defeat him, but in terms of combat effectiveness, the Northwest Army, which had been competing with the party in the northwest for many years, was still more than enough to fight against Zhao Yuanwei's motley army that he had pieced together out of nowhere.

It's just that he just experienced the big battle against Liao, and Zhao Weiji really didn't want to start a war again, so he brought these ten cannons in order to deter those rebels, so as to achieve the surrender of the soldiers without a fight.

Now that the other side has come to surrender, the Northwest Army is also very happy, to be honest, they don't want to fight this unnecessary war too much.

What followed was a simple surrender process, and after getting the promise that as long as they surrendered, the rebels happily handed over Zhao Yuanwei and others to Li Jiguang.

Then he returned to his base camp and handed over all the weapons and armor to the Northwest Army.

After doing this, the rebels disbanded on the spot and returned to their respective homes.

After capturing the leaders of these rebels, Li Jiguang did not dare to deal with them on his own, so he immediately asked the army to hand over these people to Zhao Weiji to deal with them.

……

Ten days later, the army returned to the court, although the soldiers were bloodless, but they were still welcomed by the people of the capital. After taking the guards all the way to the East Palace, Li Jiguang met Zhao Weiji.

Zhao Weiji was still dealing with political affairs, as if this rebellion had never happened.

"Lord Wang, Jiguang is fortunate not to be dishonored." After seeing Zhao Weiji, Li Jiguang immediately gave a salute.

Zhao Weiji just glanced up at him, then smiled and said, "Coming back?" Not many people died. ”

Li Jiguang, who originally thought that Zhao Weiji would ask where the rebel was, didn't expect that Zhao Weiji only cared about how many people died.

"Thanks to the artillery, there were not many casualties on either side."

"That's good, that's good." Hearing that Zhao Weiji, who was not a dead person, completely put his heart down, and was about to go back to continue watching the recital, he was suddenly stopped by Li Jiguang.

"Lord Wang, are you not interested in the rebels at all?"

Zhao Weiji was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "What do they have that I am interested in, you will not be over if you hand them over to the Criminal Department." ”

"No, there are a few special people among those people."

"Special people?" At this time, Zhao Weiji was a little incomprehensible, "What special person?" ”

At this time, Li Jiguang took out a piece of paper from his arms, and a bunch of names were written on it. He put the paper on Zhao Weiji's case, and then retreated it again.

Zhao Weiji looked at Li Jiguang, who had a strange expression and demeanor, and then picked up the list he put on the case, and the first name on the list was Zhao Yuanwei, and then Cao Can.

This list seems to be a list of the main people who carried out the rebellion, what is there to enumerate in such a list? After Zhao Weiji, who was feeling strange, saw the name of the third person, he finally knew why Li Jiguang had to make such a strange move.

Chai Yongqi, this name is the name of Zhao Weiji's eldest brother.

"This Chai Yongqi is that Chai Yongqi?" Zhao Weiji, who was still a little unbelievable, confirmed it with Li Jiguang again.

The answer I waited for was Li Jiguang nodded, it was that Chai Yongqi.

At this time, Zhao Weiji, who waited for an affirmative answer, had a green face, he never thought that his eldest lady's brother-in-law actually participated in the rebellion against him, and was also arrested by his second wife's brother-in-law.

Although the relationship between Chai Yu and her brothers has always been bad, Zhao Weiji's family has not had much contact with Chai Yongqi and others.

But he never dreamed that his eldest brother would want to overthrow him, they didn't know that once he became the emperor, Chai Yu would inevitably be the queen, and they would become relatives.

"Ugh." Sighing, Zhao Weiji asked Li Jiguang to take Chai Yongqi, and another brother-in-law Chai Yonglian and Chai Yonghui who appeared on the list next, and then sent the others to the Criminal Department.

When Zhao Weiji's three brothers-in-law were escorted in, they were still wearing a black cloth bag on their heads, which must have been taken by Li Jiguang to prevent them from being recognized.

This made Zhao Weiji feel a little more grateful to Li Jiguang in his heart, after all, no matter how bad the relationship is, his brother-in-law is still his brother-in-law, if he wants to be recognized, it will be uncomfortable for Chai Yu to sit on the throne of the queen in the future.

After the three of them were taken off the cloth bag on their heads by Zhao Weiji, they didn't have any expressions, they just lowered their heads and didn't say a word. This made Zhao Weiji a little unsure of how to start the questioning.

After the two sides were silent for a cup of tea, Zhao Weiji opened his mouth first: "Brother-in-law, second brother-in-law, third brother-in-law." Sister-in-law, I never thought you would appear on this list of rebellions. What am I, Zhao Weiji and Xiao Yu, sorry for the three of you, so that the three of you want to raise troops to sentence me. ”

"Becoming the king and defeating the king, since you lost today, you can deal with it as you want, and we brothers don't want to say a word about it." After the boss Chai Yongqi said this, he stopped talking.

And the second and third children also never said a word again.

Zhao Weiji, who knew that he couldn't pry anything out of the mouths of these three people for the time being, had no choice but to put the three of them in prison secretly, and wait for Chai Yu to come back before making another plan.

Half a month later, Chai Yu and the others finally came back. (To be continued......)
