Using Han Wei, the person who made waves in Bianliang City was Prime Minister Wang Pu. The Chen Qiao Mutiny was originally a bureau set up by him, using Zhao Guangyi to mobilize Zhao Kuangyin's army to return to the division.

The original intention was to let Zhao Kuangyin and Han Tong fight to the death, consume each other, and get rid of the prime minister's fan quality above him, and become an auxiliary minister with great power. Wang Pu always said that his ideal was to be the Huo Guang of the Hou Zhou.

It's a pity that the plan can't catch up with the changes, Zhao Zheng appeared to save the Zhao family, Han Tong lost the bargaining chip to balance Zhao Kuangyin, and the shape was completely uncontrollable, and Zhao Kuangyin ascended the throne because of this.

Wang Pu was not convinced by this, and had the idea of overthrowing the Zhao and Song regimes, but unfortunately Li Yun and Li Chongjin failed in two rebellions.

Helpless, Wang Pu had to take matters into his own hands in Bianliang City, borrowing Han Wei's hand to buy off the helpers of the inner wine shop to poison him, first separated Shi Shouxin, and planned a mutiny with Zhao Yanhui and other festival envoys, preparing to welcome Emperor Chai Zongxun of the Later Zhou Gong who lived in seclusion in the West Palace to reascend the throne.

The timing of the launch was chosen on the day of Zhao Zheng and Fu Li's wedding, but Zhao Zheng and Zhao Kuangyin noticed it in advance, and they planned to wipe out the traitors.

But unfortunately, the Empress Dowager Du was unfortunately frightened, which induced heart palpitations and died soon after. Before dying, Empress Dowager Du lamented the death of the young lord of Hou Zhou, and instructed Zhao Kuangyin that in case he was unwell but the prince was still young, he could consider passing on the throne to his brother and reusing the Zhao family, which is the so-called Jinkui Alliance. But there is a premise, and it is not specified that the throne will be passed on to Zhao Guangyi, but Zhao Er has an idea because of this.

Empress Dowager Du died, although Shi Shouxin and others were deceived and used, but they were involved in the rebellion, Zhao Kuangyin adopted Zhao Zheng's construction and released the military power with a glass of wine. Chai Zongxun and Empress Dowager Fu of Zhou, with the efforts of Zhao Zheng and Fu Yanqing, saved their lives and left Bianliang to live in Fangzhou.

……

After quelling the civil strife, Zhao Kuangyin set his sights on the south, taking advantage of Zhou Xingfeng, who had seized Jinghu, to become seriously ill. Began to plot the two lakes. However, in this matter, there was an abnormal movement on Hebei Road, grain prices continued to fluctuate, and the Northern Han side was also ready to move, Zhao Zheng was ordered to go north to fight Han Derang.

Murong Yanzhao quickly pacified Jinghu, and Hou Shu felt the pressure and sent envoys to contact the Northern Han to jointly attack the Great Song Dynasty, but Zhao Zheng intercepted the information.

Zhao Kuangyin used this as an excuse to send Wang Quanbin to lead his troops to attack Houshu, earlier than the original history. Later Shu soon perished. Meng Chang, the queen of Shu, was ordered to Bianliang. But the Empress Dowager Li used the excuse that she was seriously ill and difficult to walk, Wang Quanbin was in a hurry to send Meng Chang away, and the Empress Dowager Li excused herself by leaving Mrs. Hua Rui to take care of herself. Afterwards, Empress Dowager Li told the reason, saying that Mrs. Hua Rui was too beautiful and easy to cause death to Meng Chang, so she stayed in Shuzhong temporarily.

Wang Quanbin and others acted excessively in Shuzhong, killed too much, and were greedy. provoked a rebellion in Shuzhong. Zhao Kuangyin was very anxious, and sent Zhao Zheng to hold a jade axe to enter Shu on behalf of the Son of Heaven to verify and make friends with Cao Bin when he passed through Xiazhou. After arriving in Shuzhong, he had a conflict with Wang Quanbin and others.

Some generals were disrespectful to Empress Dowager Li and Madame Hua Rui, and were stopped by Zhao Zheng, and saw Madame Hua Rui for the first time, and then the two had a lot of contact.

Wang Quanbin did not listen to the advice. provoked a rebellion in Shuzhong, and the rebels attacked Chengdu, and Zhao Zheng and Madame Hua Rui came forward to persuade the rebel generals. Eliminate the scourge of war.

Subsequently, escorted Empress Dowager Li and Mrs. Hua Rui into Bianliang, and the two became more and more affectionate, but Zhao Zheng was very worried about Hua Rui's future fate.

After arriving in Bianliang, Zhao Guangyi noticed that Zhao Zheng had an unusual relationship with Mrs. Hua Rui, and deliberately pitted him, wanting to find an opportunity to send Hua Rui into the palace and separate Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Zheng.

For this reason, Zhao Guangyi poisoned and murdered Meng Chang, but was rescued by Zhao Zheng in time, Meng Chang did not die, but became a waste, and Hua Rui did not enter the palace for the time being as Mrs. Meng.

With the passage of time, disputes between the DPRK and China gradually arose, forming a situation in which the three Zhao Dingli were formed, and Zhao Pu, Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Zheng became the three important forces in the DPRK and China.

Fu Yanqing became the target of Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Zheng's active struggle, but Fu Yanqing had many concerns, because a Fang Shi once said to him: "All women are noble in the world, and mothers are two and a half in the world." ”

There were two daughters who became queens before, and the remaining half of the queen should be the sixth daughter (Zhao Guangyi's wife) or the seventh daughter Fu Li, it is difficult to decide, and the statement of half the queen also makes Fu Yanqing puzzled.

Fu Rong, the sixth daughter, died early, and Fu Yanqing once thought that if Zhao Guangyi ascended the throne, the sixth daughter would inevitably be posthumously crowned as the queen, which can be understood as half a queen, so she supported Zhao Guangyi. But afterwards, after being reminded by the princess Qin, maybe half of the queen had other explanations, especially after Zhao Kuangyin named Zhao Zheng as the king of Gaoyang County in order to contain Zhao Guangyi.

During this period, Zhao Zheng went to Liao and experienced Xiao Siwen's rebellion, but unfortunately the matter was revealed and was not as successful as in history. Yeluxian and Xiao Siwen were killed, and Zhao Zheng escaped from Shangjing with Xiao Xuan, Yeluxiu and others and returned to the Song realm. The Empress Dowager Xiao, who was originally dominant, will never have it again, and the Zhao family has one more Mrs. Xiao.

……

In the Southern Tang Dynasty, Huang Shuting was bent on seeking the position of queen and assassinating Emperor Zhou E. Taking advantage of the lovesick Emperor Zhou E's illness, the Buddha statue collapsed, intending to crush to death Emperor Zhou E's youngest son Zhong Xuan (the son born to Zhao Zheng). But the eldest son, Li Zhongyu, stepped forward to protect his younger brother and was stoned to death by a Buddha statue, and Emperor Zhou E was grief-stricken.

Zhou Nuying, who grew up, entered the palace to visit her sister, Li Yu was moved to see her beauty, but Zhou Nuying was only interested in Zhao Zheng, who saved her in the past. When Huang Shuting saw this move, she was very worried that she would bring down Emperor Zhou E, but she would cheapen Zhou Nuying, so she bought off the minister to offer Tang and Song Dynasty and her relatives.

There is no princess of the right age in the Southern Tang Dynasty, Huang Shuting recommended Zhou Nuying, but Li Yu was reluctant. However, Huang Shuting Jian yì Li Yu asked Zhou Nuying what she meant, and deliberately emphasized that the prince of the Song State was still young and could choose other members of the royal family, such as Zhao Zheng, the king of Gaoyang County.

When Zhou Nuying heard that it was Zhao Zheng who was chosen by her relatives, she was overjoyed and immediately agreed, and Huang Shuting, who had expected it, was quite proud of this. After Emperor Zhou E learned about it, he felt that her evil spirit had made her sister's happiness, and at the same time she felt that she and Zhao Zheng had no chance in this life, and it was a good thing to let her sister become a good match.

The only thing that Emperor Zhou E can't worry about is his son Zhong Xuan, his health is getting worse, and she is worried about Zhong Xuan's safety after her death. Before Zhou Nuying got married and went to Bianliang, she deliberately went to the Yangtze River to send her off, and sent the pipa to her sister, which also included a letter informing Zhao Zheng that Zhongxuan was his biological son and asked him to find a way to pick up the child from the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Zhou Nuying crossed the river to the north, and Emperor Zhou E used the excuse of worshiping the Buddha to stay in the quarry rock, and one day dressed up in the north of the river to dance the neon dress and feather dance, danced the last dance for Zhao Zheng, and then jumped into the river.

Fan Ruobing, who surveyed the water situation here, found it in time, rescued Emperor Zhou E, and was rescued and treated by the senior monks in the temple. Emperor Zhou E was reluctant to return to the palace. With the help of Fan Ruobing, he lived in seclusion with the nunnery.

Li Yu got the news and sent people to search and rescue to no avail, and announced to the public that Emperor Zhou E had died of illness, and he was posthumously buried for Empress Zhaohui, which was actually a well-dressed mound. When the news reached Bianliang, it was the wedding day of Zhao Zheng and Zhou Nuying.

It's a pity that it's too late, the Yiren are not there, and Zhao Zheng's liver and intestines are broken. Drunk with the newlyweds. Zhou Nuying realized that her sister was in love with the same man as herself.

After waking up, Zhao Zheng intended to avenge Emperor Zhou E, and vowed to destroy the Southern Tang Dynasty, but before that, he had to bring his son back. Zhao Zheng appointed his henchman to write to Zhao Kuangyin, saying that the Southern Tang Dynasty could not be close to each other and needed protons, and asked Zhong Xuan to be brought to Bianliang as a hostage.

Li Yu hesitated about this, and Empress Dowager Zhong resolutely objected, but Huang Shuting claimed that she was pregnant. For the sake of Tang Guo's safety, he temporarily wronged Zhongxuan. Zhao Zheng also made efforts from all sides, and finally succeeded in bringing Zhong Xuan to Bianliang, and then used Zhou Nuying as his aunt. Take care of it yourself and bring it to your own house to raise it.

Seeing his son, Zhao Zheng missed Emperor Zhou E more and more, and felt more guilty in his heart. Therefore, when he moved troops against the Southern Tang Dynasty, he personally led his troops south.

Li Yu was drunk and pampered by the lady, and afterwards the lady found the tooth marks on her body. The situation is the same as that day in Qixia Mountain. Only then did she realize that it was not Zhao Zheng who had an overnight relationship with her in Qixia Mountain, but Li Yu.

After Li Yu learned of this, he finally understood that Zhong Xuan was not his son, and angrily cursed Zhou E and Zhao Zheng. Knowing that Zhao Zheng personally led his troops to come, he was angry and wanted to fight a decisive battle with him, so he gave up Lin Renzhao's strategy of holding on and fighting steadily, and canonized Huang Shuting as the queen.

The reckless attack of the Southern Tang Dynasty gave the Song army a great opportunity, and Zhao Zheng, with the help of Fan Ruobin, crossed the river from Quarry Rock. Cao Bin led the naval army to surround Jiujiang and trap Lin Renzhao. Zhao Zheng took the opportunity to go straight to Jinling, Li Yu surrendered and became a prisoner, Huang Shuting could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide in the tomb of Emperor Zhou E.

Zhao Zheng came to the mausoleum to mourn Emperor Zhou E, and Fan Ruobing, who offered the pontoon plan, knew the truth, and it turned out that Zhaohui was thinking about his own prince, so he hurriedly informed Zhao Zheng of the news that Emperor Zhou E was still alive.

Zhao Zheng learned of the situation, reunited with Emperor Zhou E, and was full of emotion, the two of them revisited the hometown of Xia Mountain, lived in both places, and finally became a family member.

Back in Bianliang, Meng Chang did not escape the doom of death after all, and Mrs. Hua Rui entered the palace, which was all Zhao Guangyi's strategy.

Zhao Kuangyin was attracted by the beauty of Mrs. Hua Rui, but Hua Rui insisted that Meng Chang had been filial piety for three years, and he refused to obey, so Zhao Kuangyin had no choice but to give up. One day, Zhao Kuangyin saw Hua Rui painting, and the words were the back of a man, but it was actually Zhao Zheng. However, Hua Rui claimed that this was Zhang Xian in Shuzhong folk rumors, and he painted to pray for blessings, hoping to give birth to a baby boy in the future.

Zhao Kuangyin noticed the abnormality, and Zhao Guangyi added fuel to the fire, and finally knew about the past between Hua Rui and Zhao Zheng. He was a little angry, but he was also very happy, because Zhao Zheng's power and merit were getting bigger and bigger, and he had to have a bargaining chip to control him.

Zhao Zheng and Hua Rui are separated by a palace wall and become a pair of bitter mandarin ducks. At the same time, the struggle between the DPRK and China became more and more intense, and Zhao Guangyi began to plot secretly, and that important snowy night was getting closer and closer.

Because of the successive destruction of the country and the domination of the world, Zhao Kuangyin was quite inflated and held a suburban ceremony in Luoyang, Xijing. There, Zhao Zheng finally had the opportunity to meet Hua Rui, and that night while Zhao Kuangyin was drunk, they couldn't help themselves.

Hua Rui is pregnant, Zhao Kuangyin is suspicious, since Zhao Defang was born, he has no heirs, and he is self-aware. It was finally determined that the child belonged to Zhao Zheng, and Zhao Kuangyin was very angry about this. But he didn't do it immediately, but asked Zhao Zheng to help him get rid of Zhao Kuangyin and pave the way for Zhao Defang, and then promised to return the stamen to Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zheng and Fu Li saw that Zhao Kuangyin would probably not let go of himself, so they prepared early and began to leave a way back for themselves. On a certain Cheng dù, Zhao Zheng somewhat indulged Zhao Guangyi's small actions, but the purpose was mainly to find a way to save Hua Rui. But unfortunately, the night of the candle shadow axe came early.

By the time Zhao Zheng found out, Zhao Kuangyin was dead, but Zhao Guangyi was seized with evidence and became a minister for killing the king. Zhao Zheng's original intention was to support Zhao Defang to ascend the throne and then go overseas. But Zhao Guangyi was too ruthless, and he actually killed Zhao Dezhao and Zhao Defang at the same time, and the heir to the throne suddenly became vacant.

At this time, Zhao Zheng held great power, and many courtiers said that Zhao Zheng was also a descendant of the royal family and persuaded him to ascend the throne. However, some ministers questioned Zhao Zheng, believing that Zhao Kuangyin's murder was designed by Zhao Zheng, and they were afraid of suspicion, believing that according to blood kinship, Zhao Guangmei should ascend the throne.

Seeing the tragic death of the two brothers, Zhao Guangmei said that she was unwilling to ascend the throne at all, fearing that Zhao Zheng would murder her. Seeing this situation, Zhao Zheng was very helpless, but Zhao Pu proposed a compromise solution, that is, to wait for the child in Mrs. Hua Rui's womb to be born, and if it was a baby boy, he would ascend the throne as emperor.

Nominally, Mrs. Hua Rui is the imperial concubine, and the child is the prince, but those who know the inside story know that it is Zhao Zheng's son. So a few months later, a newborn baby became the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty and became the empress dowager, and Lady Hua Rui invited Zhao Zheng to be the regent and assist her son to adulthood.

During this period, Zhao Zheng single-handedly operated and destroyed the Li family, a party entrenched in the northwest. Then he used Xiao Xuan's strategy, declared that Yeluxian was still alive, borrowed his banner, and under the guidance of Yeluxiu and others, he went on a northern expedition to recover the sixteen states of Yanyun.

Twenty years later, Zhao Zheng told his son his true life experience, and then left Bianliang and traveled far away. Shortly thereafter, the Empress Dowager Lady Hua Rui died, but she actually went to meet Zhao Zheng.

In order for his son to fully grasp the power, Zhao Zheng also announced the news of his death, and after the emperor's son learned the news, Zhao Zheng was posthumously crowned as the emperor and enshrined in the Taimiao, and Fu Li was also posthumously crowned as the queen, and the prophecy of half the queen came true. In fact, Zhao Zheng traveled far away with his wife and concubine, enjoying a peaceful and happy life.

It is precisely the true meaning of Zaifu - to dominate the world, to assist his son, not a monarch, but to be like an emperor. (To be continued......)
