Chapter 74: Chai Rong dies
Righteousness is like the last straw that breaks the camel's back, and people like Zhao Kuangyin can only use righteousness to suppress him, otherwise there is really no way.
Only in this way will he not have the guilt of replacing the Zhou Dynasty, this is not that Zhao Xu wants to be a crown prince, only when he is in power can he have the opportunity to change the country.
Otherwise, he will be constrained everywhere, even according to the normal development of history, Zhao Kuangyin will still be the emperor, but he will be bullied by Liao and Jin in the future.
So Zhao Xu continued to start his world righteousness:
"This era should not be so chaotic, the people should not suffer such a disaster, and our people should be as peaceful and prosperous as the rule of Zhenguan in the previous dynasty."
Zhao Xu was behind the back of his hand at this time, and his figure was so tall that even Zhao Kuangyin was infected at this moment.
"Okay, good, my son is right, this is the so-called peaceful and prosperous world, only in this way can we live up to this world. Let our father and son assist the emperor together, calm the world, and return the people to a bright future, I, Zhao Kuangyin, swear here, that I have pacified the troubled times in this life, and I will not ...... for life."
"Haha, this Zhao Kuangyin has finally opened his mind, he has always been the man of destiny, but his son Zhao Xu is the real person who swept the troubled world, but this emperor is still Zhao Kuangyin's, and I will see this Zhao Kuangyin again when I have time."
In a Taoist temple in Huashan, the person who once appeared next to Miao Xun was talking to himself on the side, if Zhao Kuangyin was here, he would definitely recognize him.
At that time, Zhao Kuangyin once played three games with him in Huashan, all of which were lost, and Zhao Kuangyin was ashamed to say that he was willing to talk about Huashan as a bet.
I'm afraid Zhao Kuangyin wouldn't have thought that his own joke back then would soon come true.
The next day, in the Heart Cultivation Hall where Chai Rong was resting, Chai Rong met with him
"Zhao Xu, haha, cough, I know that you are fine, it's good to come back, okay, you can rest for a while first, you will be fully responsible for the forbidden military academy first, since the title of the founding marquis has been sealed to you, I will not take it back, okay, you go down first!"
Chai Rong didn't say a few words, she coughed non-stop, it seemed that she couldn't last a few days, so Zhao Xu thanked him and retreated. (.)
Zhao Xu didn't have anything in his heart, these two positions were fictitious, there was no real power, and the founding marquis was just a title from the third grade.
The Forbidden Military Academy was created by itself, and there was no such official position in the imperial court system, but he was very satisfied.
As he guessed, Chai Rong really didn't let himself serve as the Marquis of Duyu, otherwise the front secretary of the palace would almost become the Zhao family, but it didn't matter if he had a better position.
Zhao Xu didn't know that Chai Rong had been looking at him from behind his back, his eyes were so complicated, and Chai Rong's heart was not calm.
In fact, he likes this Zhao Xu very much, not to mention being young, he has brains and abilities, and he must be the pillar of the country in the future.
But his father Zhao Kuangyin has just been appointed by himself as the front of the palace, and he is already a very popular minister.
The most important thing is that Du Dianjian still holds this military power, and if Zhao Xu is still allowed to serve as the Marquis of Duyu at this time, it is difficult to guarantee that the Zhao family will not rebel in the future.
Zhao Kuangyin is loyal to himself, so he replaced Zhang Yongde, and his merits and abilities are also worthy of this position.
People with high powers, people with high merit and high achievements were either killed by the emperor or rebelled, for the sake of their own eternal stability in the Great Zhou Dynasty a hundred years later, or Zhao Xu will be in charge of the military again.
Even if their father and son are loyal, they don't know that people's words are terrible, how should their father and son choose when the time comes, or don't let such a thing happen.
Then he found Fan Zhen and Wang Pu, and in front of them, he issued a secret decree:
"All descendants of my descendants must remember that Zhao Kuangyin's father and son are not allowed to be in charge of the army at the same time, and future generations are not allowed to have a father and son in charge of the army at the same time.
The two prime ministers were puzzled, but they still followed the order honestly, they didn't know that Chai Rong had just given the order on the front foot, and a little eunuch told Zhao Xu the news. ()
After Fan Zhen and the others withdrew, Chai Rong recruited Zhao Kuangyin to come to meet him, and Zhao Kuangyin was dressed in military uniform and was full of spirit.
Zhao Kuangyin knelt down and saluted as usual, but this time Cai Rong did not let him get up, but kept staring at Zhao Kuangyin on the ground.
Zhao Kuangyin also wondered, what happened to Your Majesty today, could it be that Your Majesty didn't hear what I said.
So Zhao Kuangyin came again: "Weichen Zhao Kuangyin sees Your Majesty, long live long live long live." ”
But Chai Rong, who was lying on the dragon collapse, was just leaning over and looking at Zhao Kuangyin who was kneeling on the ground with his eyes, his high-spirited brother.
Zhao Kuangyin didn't know what happened to Chai Rong today, but although he had questions, he didn't dare to ask.
"Zhao Kuangyin, are you guilty?" Chai Rong, who was unusual, suddenly said such a sentence. Zhao Kuangyin was also shocked in his heart, he didn't break the law?
But at this time, the wisest choice is to admit it honestly, otherwise I don't know what kind of sin I will suffer?
"Weichen is guilty, and please make it clear to Your Majesty." Zhao Kuangyin immediately kowtowed and pleaded guilty, but what he said was very skillful.
Since the emperor said that I am guilty, I will honestly admit that I am guilty, you say that you are not guilty, and you are not working against the emperor, so can there be good fruit to eat?
So I admit that I am guilty, but I don't know what crime I have committed, and I ask your Majesty to make it clear, which means that I am not guilty.
"You still don't know the sin, I heard that you don't support the prince I am going to appoint? Yes and no? Although Chai Rong has a sick face, he still has the power of the emperor for many years.
And Chai Rong suddenly stepped down from the dragon collapse, holding a sword, and put the sharp sword on Zhao Kuangyin's neck.
Zhao Kuangyin wondered in his heart: "The emperor set up the prince, I don't know, when did I stop supporting it?" Well, I see, it seems that His Majesty wants to make the crown prince. ”
Since he didn't know about the emperor's establishment of the crown prince, His Majesty also said that this means that His Majesty wants me to let me know that he wants to establish the crown prince.
Your Majesty is only in his thirties, why is he in such a hurry to make a prince, he has never had this kind of thought before, do you really want to think about what Xu'er said, Your Majesty really is this time?
By the way, the day before yesterday, His Majesty had just registered Empress Xuanyi's sister Fu as the successor, and the eldest son Zong Xun was the general of the left guard, and was named the king of Liang, and the second son Zong Rang was the Duke of Yanguo. It seems that he should be ready to make a prince.
Your Majesty is unusually here today, is it for me to protect the crown prince, maybe that's it.
"Your Majesty, the heart of the minister can shine on the sun and the moon, the minister is waiting to meet His Majesty in his lifetime, this is the honor of the minister, everything is given by His Majesty, the minister is loyal to His Majesty all his life, and all the decisions of His Majesty are done by the minister."
Zhao Kuangyin knelt on the ground and showed his heart.
Chai Rong also agreed very much in his heart when he heard this, he understood this brother who he knew when he was not a career.
"In that case, what if someone is dissatisfied with the crown prince of the country?" Chai Rong withdrew the sword in his hand.
It seems that the sub-level guessed correctly, His Majesty really wants me to escort the crown prince, and now is the time to show his heart.
"The minister swears here, if anyone dares to criticize the prince of the official family, the minister Zhao Kuangyin will protect the prince even if he is broken to pieces, in order to repay His Majesty."
Saying that, Zhao Kuangyin moved a few steps forward with his knees, and came to Chai Rong's couch with a resolute face.
The official family is the meaning of the emperor, and it is the honorific title of the subordinates to the emperor, which is called 'the three emperors in the world, and the five emperors in the world', because the emperor wants to be selfless, so it is called the official family.
Moreover, in the Western Han Dynasty, the emperor was also called a county official, governing the world, and the official title of the emperor became popular in the five dynasties.
"Okay, I believe you, Kuang Yin, get up, you are my brother, my prince is your son and nephew, you have to assist him well, I will depend on your performance, you go down first."
Chai Rong looked tired, pale and scary, there were still a lot of things to tell Zhao Kuangyin, but his body couldn't hold it.
Zhao Kuangyin was very rational and did not ask Chai Rong's physical condition, nor did he ask who would be the prince, these are not what he should ask.
When Zhao Kuangyin left, Chai Rong's coughing sound could still be heard. Zhao Kuangyin said hello to the oncoming Fan Zhen and fulfilled his accusation.
In the command post of the front division of the palace, a group of high-ranking commanding officers were chatting inside, and their voices could be heard all the time.
"What are you doing here when you're not on duty?" Zhao Kuangyin said with a frown as soon as he came in.
"Big brother is here, be quiet." The one who spoke was Zhao Kuangyin's deputy, the deputy in front of the palace, Zhao Kuangyin's brother Murong Yanzhao.
He is currently the second-in-command of the front division of the palace, and under his reminder, everyone stopped the discussion, and everyone saw that Zhao Kuangyin's face was not good, and the atmosphere was quite tense for a while.
Seeing this, someone immediately stood up, and looked at his service as a senior officer, and he was also Zhao Kuangyin's sworn brother.
Shi Shouxin is also the one who has an ironclad relationship with Zhao Kuangyin, and it is best for him to stand up at this time.
"Big brother, look at your face is wrong, except for something, what is it that Your Majesty summoned you, Your Majesty has not been to the court for a long time?"
Everyone looked at Zhao Kuangyin with blank eyes, like a puppy eager to get a bone, but the poor one was actually eager to get some news.
"Keep your word, it's okay, it may be that you haven't rested enough in the past two days, you guys go on duty, remember to be careful these days, no one is allowed to approach the Forbidden Palace with weapons, go ahead!"
Everyone has never seen Zhao Kuangyin so serious, and he has never seen such a serious order before, so everyone guesses that there must be something else.
So everyone quickly went to order their men to strictly patrol and check every person with weapons.
Within a few days, Chai Rong's condition became more serious, and finally on June 29, the sixth year of Xiande, the first Ming Jun of the fifth generation, Chai Rong, died.
