Chapter 171: Cannibalism

Hearing Zhao Jia ask about Zhao Jun's accomplices, Zhao Xin hesitated again, as if there was something unspeakable, but this made Zhao Jia even more angry and said angrily: "What is there to hesitate at this time, who are Zhao Jun's accomplices, I want to see how many rebellious ministers and thieves there are in our Great Song Dynasty!" ”

Seeing Zhao Jia's angry appearance, Zhao Xin also sighed helplessly, and finally had to speak: "Big brother, there are three masterminds in this rebellion, in addition to Zhao Jun, the other two are the second uncle and the ...... brother Yu"

"What?" Zhao Jia heard that Zhao Tong and Zhao Hao were also one of the masterminds of this rebellion, and the whole person was stunned for a long time, and he didn't react for a long time, among which Zhao Hao was just that, he knew that his second uncle had always been undead to the throne, but Zhao Yan was his brother who grew up together, and his relationship with Zhao Jia had always been very good, and Zhao Jia also knew that Zhao Xu had always respected Zhao Yan, his eldest brother, so he didn't expect Zhao Yan to participate in the rebellion.

Seeing Zhao Jia's look of disbelief, Zhao Xin couldn't help but sigh again, and then continued to speak: "Zhao Jun and the three of them have long colluded together, and each gathered a group of supporters to launch this rebellion, such as Zhao Tong's uncle Xian Yi and others, they were originally generals in the army, and this time they quietly led the army to the vicinity of Mount Tai, and then killed Mount Tai under the leadership of Zhao Jun and others. As a result, these rebels didn't expect His Majesty to be alive at all, and many people knelt on the ground in fright, and the forbidden army on the mountain also took the opportunity to quell the rebellion, and in the end, the farce of this rebellion was easily quelled, and Zhao Jun and others were also caught. ”

"What's going on with Brother Xu's body, why has the rebellion been going on for so long. But his body has become like this? Zhao Jia said very heartbroken at this time, he not only felt sorry for Zhao Xu's current physical condition, but also felt sorry for the betrayal of Zhao Yan and others, whether it was Zhao Jun or Zhao Tong, they were all brothers who grew up with him, I am afraid that when Zhao Xu learned that his two elder brothers turned out to be the masterminds of the rebellion. I'm afraid it will be even more painful in my heart!

"Alas, the poison in His Majesty is very strange, according to Zhao Jun, he got it from an alchemist, and in order to keep it secret, he killed the alchemist after getting this poison, so no one knows the composition of this poison, although His Majesty spit out some of the poison at that time, but the remaining poison can still be fatal, during this time, the fourth uncle and the imperial doctors tried their best to detoxify His Majesty. Only try to suppress the toxicity of the poison and delay the date of the onset of the poison. ”

When he said this, he saw Zhao Xin pause for a moment and then spoke: "Your Majesty, after knowing his physical condition, is worried that if he has a case in the future, something will definitely happen to the Great Song Dynasty, so he specially sent someone to Europe to inform his father to come back, and he also sent someone to Nanyang, hoping to wait for you to come back." Fortunately, God opened his eyes and finally let you come back in time, big brother. I wanted to tell you all this when we first met, but His Majesty said that he had promised you to personally pick you up after you returned from your voyage around the world, so he let us hide the rebellion for the time being, and you will know what happened later. ”

Hearing Zhao Xin's last words, Zhao Jia suddenly remembered. When he talked to Zhao Xu about the round-the-world voyage, he did say that when he successfully returned, he would hold a grand reception banquet for him, but he didn't expect Zhao Xu to be so weak, but he still remembered the original promise. This made Zhao Jia both moved and extremely sad.

At this moment, I saw that Zhao Hao finally walked out of Zhao Xu's room, so Zhao Jia hurriedly greeted him and asked, "Fourth uncle, how is Brother Xu's condition, have you come to your senses now?" ”

"Alas, Your Majesty's poisonous injury is very complicated to explain, but now Your Majesty has woken up, and let Jia'er let you in by name, but don't talk too much to him, try to persuade him to rest more, otherwise if he vomits blood again, I'm afraid even Da Luo Jinxian can't do anything!" Although the rescue time was not long, Zhao Hao said softly at this time, it seemed that he had also spent a lot of effort on Zhao Xu's condition.

Zhao Jia wanted to ask Zhao Hao about Zhao Xu's condition, but now he heard Zhao Xu invite him in, and he couldn't care about anything else at the moment, so he said goodbye to Zhao Hao and entered the room again, only to see Zhao Xu half-lying on the bed at this time, and there was an attendant next to him who was feeding him medicine, when Zhao Xu saw Zhao Jia come in, a reluctant smile appeared on his pale and emaciated face and said, "Big brother......"

"Brother Xu, don't talk too much, I have already asked the sixth brother just now, now you tell me where the two bastards Zhao Jun and Zhao Tong are imprisoned, I will help you kill them to get angry!" Zhao Jia asked through gritted teeth at this time.

Seeing Zhao Jia's murderous face, Zhao Xu couldn't help but smile bitterly and said: "Big brother, I know that you hate the eldest brother and the third brother very much now, but they can ignore the love of brothers, but I can't do this, and if I wanted to kill them, I would have done it before, so why wait until now?" ”

"They've all made you look like this, do you want to spare their lives?" Zhao Jia was even more annoyed when he heard this, his relationship with Zhao Tong was not bad, but the other party actually did such a rebellious thing, which had crossed his bottom line, even if the other party was his own brother, I am afraid he would not tolerate him living in the world again.

However, compared to Zhao Jia's anger, I saw that Zhao Xu smiled weakly again at this time, and then waved his hand to signal the people around him to step back, and let Zhao Jia sit on the edge of his bed, and then finally spoke: "Big brother, you also know that my father died early, and even when my father was alive, he didn't have the time and energy to care about us, which also made us lack of father's care since we were children. But the third uncle is not our biological father after all, and in terms of blood, the eldest brother and the third brother are my closest relatives, so I don't want to kill my closest relatives with my own hands, otherwise I will have no shame to see my father after I die. ”

Speaking of this, I saw Zhao Xu pause for a moment and then said: "In addition, I have been in the Great Song Dynasty for more than 100 years, and I have never caused fratricide because of the struggle for the throne, of course, there are many people who suspect the succession of Taizu and Taizong, but after all, there is no empirical evidence, so I don't want this precedent to start from me, not to mention that even the emperor of the enemy country in my Great Song Dynasty can leave their lives, let alone my brother."
