The seventh emperor of the Great Song Empire, Zhao Xu, who was sick and weak, but extremely strong in spirit, finally came to the end of his life at the second watch on the night of Qixi Festival.

He reigned for eleven years, and only had two years of pro-government time, but in these short two years, the Great Song Dynasty defeated the Liao State in the north, which reversed the Song army's weakness towards the Liao army in one fell swoop. shouted out the strongest voice that Da Song does not accept any threats!

At the same time, the Western Xia New Year's coins were stopped, the field was closed, and a shallow attack and encroachment strategy was formulated. In two years, he achieved a great victory in Mengyun Valley, captured the city of Yingli in Western Xia, recovered Mizhi, wiped out nearly 100,000 troops in Western Xia, and beat Western Xia to the point of fear, changing the situation of passive beating during the Yuan You period.

In terms of internal affairs, he appointed Zhang Dan, an iron-blooded figure, as the prime minister, and vigorously opened the curtain of the reform of the ancestors of Shaoshu, unified taxes, and the officials and gentry paid grain as one, daring to open the world first, and daring to shout to all the officials and gentry in the world. Even the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty and the Song Ancestors, may not have such courage.

The Errand Service Law, the Armor Protection Law, the Farmland Water Conservancy Law, the Art of War, the Imperial Examination Law, and the improvement and re-implementation of laws and regulations, as well as the political, military, financial, and imperial examinations, all started together, leading the Great Song Dynasty to make great strides forward.

In just two years, the Great Song Dynasty was deeply branded with his youth, fortitude, hard work, toughness, extremeism, and uncompromising, he was a promising monarch, not to mention giving him another five hundred years, as long as ten years, his achievements may surpass all the emperors since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty.

But he just left! He died before he left the school, and the hero was full of tears.

Although Empress Liu had already made some mental preparations, when Zhao Xu really swallowed her last breath, she was still cold, and she almost fainted under her mourning.

Outside the hall thunder, lightning slashed down one by one, the Qianning Hall was illuminated flickeringly, the raindrops poured down, as if the heavens were crying, the night wind blew into the hall, the tent curtain flew, and the eunuch and palace maid who knelt on the ground also cried in a low voice...... Finally waiting for Empress Liu's situation to stabilize, Xiao Ju, who was in tears, sobbed and said, "Sage! The official family has become popular, now you have to take care of yourself, if the saint is out of proportion, how can the servants and others be good? ”

Empress Liu was soft, holding Xiao Ju and crying, Xiao Ju accompanied her crying while comforting, Hao Sui looked anxious, this time half an hour has passed, some things must be arranged immediately, otherwise it will change later.

He bent down and persuaded: "The official family is in a big business, and there is an urgent need for cooking after death, and I also ask the saint to mourn and change smoothly and cheer up, otherwise some things will be late, but I am afraid that it will be inappropriate, and the saint will ......."

Empress Liu listened to the cry, gritted her teeth and said, "Ring the bell!" ”

At this moment, another lightning bolt struck, and the inside and outside of the hall were pale, and I saw a little eunuch who was soaked rushed in in a panic, and opened his mouth and shouted: "Sage, great ...... Big...... Things are not good, there are guards in the forbidden middle to make trouble, and now they have been corrected...... Gather two or three hundred people and kill Ben Ning Palace...... Here it ......."

"What?" Empress Liu was so shocked that she almost fainted again.

Hao Sui felt a chill in his tail vertebrae, jumped up all of a sudden, stumbled out and shouted: "Escort!" Escort! There are rebellious ministers and thieves who are in trouble, escort! Escort ......"

As the thunder fell, a noisy footsteps came from the rain, and then the sound of the impact of the sword, the cracking of the vase on the ground, the angry shouts of killing, and the screams of death came one after another, so that the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace shouted and screamed continuously, even Queen Liu was also the master of the six gods, and she was in a panic.

At this time, Xie Dongsheng, who was half covered in blood, rushed in, and he didn't care about saluting, and shouted urgently: "Sage, the commander of the front division of the palace made Deng Xi make chaos, and there are many chaotic soldiers, I am afraid that I will not be able to support it for long, please ask the sage to retreat immediately, and at the same time quickly pass the decree, and summon the guards to know that Li Yizhong is in a hurry to lead the troops into the palace and escort the chaos to quell the chaos, it is important!" ”

Where is Empress Liu's opinion in a hurry, how can Xie Dongsheng say that she can only do it, Hao got the will, and rushed away from behind under the escort of several guards, Xie Dongsheng carried a small soft couch in the hall over, and urged repeatedly: "Hurry up!" Help the saint up, the saint can rest assured, the villain is fighting to die, and he also vows to protect the saint. ”

Who knew that Queen Liu said at this time: "I'm not going anywhere, the official family has just become popular, I want to guard the official family, even if I die, I will guard the official family!" ”

No matter how Xiao Ju and others persuaded her, Queen Liu was unmoved, Xie Dongsheng saw that she had a big belly, and he was afraid of any accidents under the violent running, so he didn't dare to persuade again, so he had to rush out of Qianning Palace again.

Under the pouring rain, the guards guarding the Qianning Palace are fighting to the death with Deng Xi's rebellious soldiers, the rebellious army is no less than 300 people, the same palace guards, under the leadership of Deng Xi, gradually surrounded the Qianning Palace, and forced to kill step by step, Xie Dongsheng led the guards only a few dozen people, at this moment has formed a small formation, desperately guarding the doors and windows and other positions, but the situation is still precarious.

Xie Dongsheng saw that his heart was like fire, he rushed out with a long knife, roared like thunder and slashed at the head of a chaotic soldier, rain and blood splashed all over the sky, he shouted while chopping: "As a guard in front of the palace, you dare to commit a rebellion, this is still a big crime of the nine clans, and those who know each other are not quick to put down their weapons and be arrested!" In the future, the court will remember that you will be deceived for a while, and you can still be lightly punished, otherwise you will ......"-

"How else?"

Deng Xi smiled and laughed, his tall body was reflected by the lightning and lightning, like a lion and a tiger, he roared and refuted: "Brothers, don't listen to him, Your Majesty has been on a big trip for two days, they are not mourning, their hearts can be punished, this is clearly to cover up their plot to rebel against the Lord, steal the country's weapons, and cause chaos to the court, I am now under the order of the Queen Mother, kill such chaotic ministers and thieves, brothers, kill!" Those who bravely kill thieves tonight, when the Queen Mother returns to the palace, there will be a heavy reward! Future generations will enjoy endless wealth and glory! ”

"Empress Dowager Xiang lives in Yaohua Palace, she is not qualified to interfere in state affairs at all, the palace should be respected by Queen Liu, Your Majesty has just made a big trip, and the bones are not cold, so you will commit this act of rebellion, and the heavens are clear, even if you are lucky to succeed tonight, you will be killed by the whole door tomorrow......"

Every time Xie Dongsheng slashed out, he would spill a lot of rain, and his armor was stained with blood, and he was soon washed away by the rain, and the two sides not only had to fight to the death, but also angrily denounced each other as rebellious ministers and thieves, only by occupying the commanding heights of morality, can they boost their morale.

But Deng Xi's side had the advantage in numbers after all, and gradually forced Xie Dongsheng and others to the gate of the palace. The comrades around him fell one by one, and there were fewer and fewer helpers!

With a pop, Xie Dongsheng also received a shot in his big foot, he didn't wait for the other party to draw the gun, roared like a tiger and swung a knife, a huge head flew up, and hot blood sprayed his face.

When Deng Xi saw that Xie Dongsheng was injured, he yelled: "Kill!" Brothers! Kill these traitors who plotted to kill Your Majesty, and the great merit of reinforcing the country and the country will be yours! Kill ......"

Under the encouragement of Deng Xi, the rebels were even more crazy, surging forward one after another, wielding swords, axes, guns and halberds! The roar of thunder was mixed with the crash of weapons, lightning flashed, and sparks flew ...... Seeing that Xie Dongsheng was about to be unable to hold on, at this moment, a coquettish shout sounded: "Stop!" How dare you make trouble in the palace! Aren't you afraid of punishing the Nine Clans? ”

Rumble! Another lightning flashed, and I saw that the eldest princess of Kang Guo on the other side of the cloister was wearing a monk's hat and wearing a white dress and came one after another, and the two palace maids who carried the lantern for her were frightened by the bloody scene in front of her, and their hands were weak and trembling, but the eldest princess of Kang was not very afraid.

Once the sea was difficult to water, except for Wushan, it is not a cloud. After all, she had experienced thousands of miles of escape in Western Xia, and she had seen a lot of bloody and vast killing fields than this, and they all really rushed into the enemy formation behind Yang Yi's horse, from the initial fear to the later numbness, the courage was naturally practiced.

Almost all the two sides who are tearing up the eldest princess know this eldest princess, she is the naughtiest princess in the palace, and she is also the princess with the most rumors, seeing that she snatched the lantern from the palace maid's hand, and walked towards the tearing field, both sides couldn't help but stop.

At present, the soldiers on both sides think that they are quelling the chaos and maintaining the imperial power, and if anyone attacks the eldest princess of Kang Guo, it will be tantamount to admitting that he is a rebellious minister and thief.

Xie Dongsheng lost no time in shouting: "Eldest princess, the villain is Xie Dongsheng!" Xie Dongsheng! Eldest Princess, Your Majesty has just made a big trip, and these people have immediately made a mess, which is simply a great crime......"

Deng Xi was in a hurry, one more second of time dragged on, it was not good for himself, once he reacted outside the palace, he only had one death, but the identity of the eldest princess of Kang Guo was there, if he ignored it, I was afraid that his subordinates would be suspicious, he suddenly rushed over and shouted: "Eldest princess, Your Majesty has been on a big trip for two days, Xie Dongsheng is a thief who is secret, and he is plotting against him, he will be ordered by the Queen Mother to come to capture the thief, and the rebellious ministers and thieves have been trapped in the palace by the general, the sword here has no eyes, and the eldest princess retreats quickly!" ”

Hearing Xie Dongsheng say the words "Your Majesty's Great Trip", the eldest princess of the country Kang was already stunned, and she no longer knew what the two sides were talking about.

"Sixth brother!" She suddenly shouted in sorrow, ignored the sword and axe in front of her, and ran straight to the gate of Qianning Palace, the lantern in her hand fell into the stagnant water on the ground, and soon died out!

"Eldest Princess! Dangerous! Protect the eldest princess! Deng Xi glanced at a few henchmen around him, and they all came up together, and ran away with the eldest princess of Kang, no matter how the eldest princess of Kang kicked, bitten, and scolded, it was useless.

"Quick! Take down the Qianning Palace for me immediately, and kill these thieves who are plotting rebellion.! Deng Xi turned back with a knife, and was the first to rush towards the palace gate, and the life-and-death struggle between the two sides began again.

Originally, the people of Tokyo City were playing all night and the lights were constantly on, but a sudden heavy rain made the streets empty, and most of the people hid back to their homes.

However, at this moment, a group of soldiers and horses rushed through the streets in the night rain, and the sound of iron hooves was as rapid as a drum, splashing water in all directions......
