Chapter 15 Different

Everyone in the palace watched King Yan, who was there in the old god, finish the wine, and picked up a piece of fruit from the table as a dish, and walked back to their seats while gnawing, everyone swallowed their saliva in unison, and looked at him as if he was not going to die. Looking at the emperor again, his face was cloudy and uncertain, and his face was full of shame, if it weren't for the good quality of the floor in the palace, he probably would have fled.

"All the ministers, retreat with me first, don't disturb the interest of the emperor!" Zhao Huan felt that there was a fire burning in his chest at this moment, which made him feel uncomfortable, a dynasty that advertised to govern the country with benevolence and filial piety, as the hand of all the people, but he did not dare to drink his father's glass of wine, how could he educate hundreds of officials, soldiers and civilians in the future, and then looked at Geng Nanzhong, the culprit of this matter, his eyes were full of resentment.

"The emperor, the queen mother, the ministers and others have retired!" There was a chaotic retreat, and the ministers, princes, emperors, and horses withdrew from the main hall.

Zhao Gou looked up at his father with a surprised face, the eldest brother with a gloomy face, the second brother who was still chewing and had no intention of leaving, the third brother with an expressionless zombie face, and those brothers and sisters who were at a loss, he resolutely turned around and followed everyone out, and his father's heart-rending cry was heard in his ears, but he didn't look back, and he had already made a decision in his heart - to live for himself!

"Father, don't cry anymore, there's no one!" Seeing that there were only three of them left in the bustling hall just now, plus a group of overwhelmed chamberlains, Zhao Ta leaned over and said.

"Second brother, my father is wrong..."Zhao Ji raised his eyes to stop his sorrow, patted his son and whimpered.

"My father is wrong, and it's your fault for appointing Cai Jing, Wang Hao and the like. As a result, public resentment boiled and the country was in danger. Treacherous and misleading the country! Zhao Ta quickly took over the conversation and said, he didn't know what his unobtrusive father would say in the second half of the sentence. If you get something sensitive, you won't be able to get out of this Longde Palace.

"Yes, it's just that the widows have been deceived by them for many years, resulting in the country being discordant and the father and son discording!" Sure enough, Zhao Ji was successfully led away from the topic by his son, and said with sobs.

"Now that both of them have returned to heaven, they deserve it, don't think about it, my father doesn't think about it, today is a good day for you. We should be happy! Zhao said.

"Alas, where are you happy, I want to have twenty-seven sons, thirty-six daughters, and countless concubines, but only your mother and son are by your side, why don't you stay in Jiangnan at the beginning..."

"Haven't they all been here, so don't be sad anymore, isn't it good to go back to Beijing without worrying about food and clothing?" Although Zhao Ta also hated his luck. But after all, this is his father, and he has given him a lot, without his support, although it is also for another purpose. But he was able to achieve today's achievements because of him, and seeing his sadness today, Zhao Ta couldn't afford to abandon him. Kind words comforted.

"Hehe, no worries about food and clothing!?" Zhao Ji shook his head with a wry smile and said.

"This is not the place to speak. Let's go outside! Zheng Hongmei knew that most of the emperor's eyeliner in the palace was now, and in this situation, Zhao Ji was likely to say something taboo. When it reached the ears of the emperor, it not only harmed himself, but also deceived his son.

"It's good!" Zhao Ji also felt sad when he looked at the empty hall, and nodded in response. Zhao Ta took his father in one hand and his mother in the other and walked out of the hall.

The predecessor of this Longde Palace is Zhao Ji's Duanwang Mansion, which was originally in the outer city, and later expanded several times, and set up a flying bridge on the Jinglong River to connect with the imperial city, the palace and pavilion face each other, and it is also spectacular. In order to deceive Zhao Ji back and meet his requirements for living in the forbidden area, the Longde Palace was renovated and allocated to him for retirement, but he was actually in the outer city.

The family went out of the palace, and the two old men rode away, and Zhao Ta helped them to accompany them, "Alas, you have to know why you bother now!" Zhao Ji looked at his second son and suddenly remembered that many years ago, when it was raining heavily, his son also held an umbrella for himself and accompanied him to Baorong Palace, but now he is the only one left by his side.

"It's like this, it's useless to think too much, my father still relaxes and takes care of the dragon's body!" Zhao Ta looked up at his father who was emotional, and was meeting Zhao Ji's gaze at him, both relieved and regretful, but he also knew that the old man was unwilling to lose power, but the raw rice was cooked, what was the use, it was better to be his own emperor...

The founder of the term "Taishanghuang" is the famous Qin Shi Huang, and "Taishang" means supreme. After he became emperor, he respected his father Qin Zhuang Xiang as the emperor, and after that, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, also respected his peasant father as the emperor, but these two had been dead for many years when they sat on the throne.

If it is said that the selection of the crown prince still has the principle of establishing a successor and establishing a long prince in ancient China, then there is no certain rule on whether and how the power of the emperor and the emperor should be divided. Let's not talk about the dead, but under the special situation of the coexistence of the emperor and the emperor Taishang, there are roughly three modes of power distribution:

The first is that the emperor monopolizes the imperial power, and the Taishang Emperor does not interfere in political affairs, such as Li Yuan, the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty, who was forced to abdicate after Li Shimin launched the Xuanwumen Rebellion, and has never been involved in political affairs since then; The second is that although Emperor Taishang abdicated but did not hand over power, he was still in the government, such as after the abdication of Emperor Wucheng of the Northern Qi Dynasty, all military affairs still had to make the most decisive decisions by themselves, and the emperor only participated in some ceremonial activities; The third is the division of power between the emperor and the Taishang Emperor, such as Tang Ruizong in August of the first year of Xiantian to set up the crown prince as the emperor, to listen to small things, self-esteem as the emperor, to listen to big things, but this is only a temporary transition.

In order to abdicate and get out of the predicament, Zhao Ji said at the time that he would adopt the first model, but what he tried to fight for afterwards was the second or third model. And the new emperor Zhao Huan will inevitably try his best to maintain the first model. However, because Zhao Ji had stated that he would not interfere in political affairs due to short-sightedness, and because Zhao Huan relied on the imperial power he had already taken to adopt a series of measures, he disposed of Zhao Ji's cronies with an iron fist, completely cut off his wings, made him lose the possibility of restoration, and put him under house arrest here!

Zhao Ta knew that it was almost impossible for Zhao Ji to turn over and redo the master with Zhao Ji's ability at this moment, and it was even more impossible to change horses, so he just said kind words and comforted him. Zhao Ji may also realize that he is dreaming, so he told his son about the crime he suffered when he fled...

On the eve of the breaking of the city, Zhao Ji asked for incense in Haozhou, and left Beijing on the fourth day of the first month, and a large family came to Tongjin Gate in a small sedan chair, and did not even talk about the price, and hired an empty ship to transport grain, and took the boat to the east overnight. Sail down. Along the way, to the shallow water of Shangqiu, the boat traveled slowly, and he was never in a hurry to abandon the boat and land on the shore, so he went ashore and sat in a sedan chair instead, and stepped up his speed.

At this time, it was still dark, and his subordinates didn't know where to find an old mule, and reluctantly continued to look at Suiyang. Until the rooster crowed, Zhao Ji was hungry and thirsty, and he left in a hurry, not only did he not bring all the food, but he also did not have any food and drink. It was too early, and people on both sides of the river were still asleep. Looking left and right, Fang saw that a family had turned on the light, and Zhao Ji had to go into the room to rest. This was the first time he had left Jingshi for a long journey, but he was so embarrassed.

The old lady who owned the house invited him into the house and served him food and drink, and he was able to take off his socks and roast his feet by the stove. After walking for a while, Zhao Ji was still too slow, so he found a boat to transport bricks and tiles again, sat on it and continued to move forward. Because he fled in such a hurry, he didn't even eat that night. In the second half of the night, Huizong was so hungry that he couldn't stand it, so he simply pulled his old face and cheekily begged the boatman for a cooking cake to satisfy his hunger. He broke the bread and ate it with the queen.

Not long after eating, he was resting his breath, and suddenly saw Cai You with a few chamberlains riding a horse to catch up from behind. He asked the boatman to stop the boat and go ashore to meet Cai You and others, and everyone was sad. Seeing a temple not far away, the monarch went in to rest.

At this time, the national crisis was at hand, and the emperor did not live and die with the Sheji Temple, but fled first, and what happened along the way was naturally full of comedy. The host of the temple was awakened by a group of people, came to the main hall in clothes, and saw that it was a group of people who looked like officials came to visit, and they couldn't imagine that it was the supreme today. The host sat down on the main seat with a big grin and let the guests sit down.

As a result, he staged a scene that he often played in the palace street, and the old monk who learned the truth was so frightened that he kowtowed and begged for mercy to end it, but Zhao Ji no longer had the mood at that moment, and had no intention of scolding him for being rude, leading everyone back to the boat, just urging the boatman to leave quickly. When the boat traveled to Yongqiu, Zhao Ji wanted to engage in some entanglement and food, but he didn't expect to encounter a bureaucratic county order again, and he had to reappear to suppress this small county order and eat a hot meal!

After not doing far, the boat ran aground again, so he could only wrinkle and land, riding a mule to Suiyang, and the sturdy "Pigeon Green" was tired and lay down, and changed mules to continue running. When he arrived in Fuli, Anhui, he boarded the official ship and took the waterway, and finally arrived in Sishang. After a short rest, and then embarked on a journey, in one day and one night, the team ran hundreds of miles, and arrived in Nanjun the next day, which can be called a model of rapid marching in that era...

Zhao Ji said in one breath that Tong Guan and Gao Yu and others led the troops to come to the rescue, he was a natural performance artist, although it was a hard job, but it made him say it humorously, and he told people who fled all the way as if they were there, Zhao Ta was a little confused when he listened, his father exposed his family ugliness, did he want to win his sympathy, or did he have other intentions?

"Ta'er, after this trip, I learned that the world is difficult, and it is not easy to be outside, I want you to go out as an official at a young age, fight on the battlefield, and win the reputation of the god of war, but you should not return to Beijing at this time... If you can stay in Hedong, it will be a different situation! Zhao Ji looked at his son and said suddenly. (To be continued......)
