What Uncle Zhang was worried about was precisely whether Zhao Huan would hate his child and attack him after he came back, so that he would harm the child. But in the end, I still thought: "The private affairs between the father and son of the heavenly family should wait for the emperor to worry about it." ”

Then he began to consider the more pressing question: Can the crown prince convince the people? With the queen hanging the curtain, the queen is also so young and inexperienced, how to convince the subjects?

Zhao Huan established his son, who was still a young child, as the crown prince in May last year, which attracted a lot of criticism, saying, "Regardless of the second prince, he is in charge of the prince." Uncle Zhang said: "Why don't you ask the prince to supervise the country." "In addition to King Yun of Yue, who is a hostage in Jinying, there are five younger brothers who can supervise the country.

"Naturally, the queen wants to supervise the country." Hu Yangeng said, "If it is King Yixin, or even King Kang is in charge of the country, how will they deal with themselves after the emperor comes back?" "Zhao Huan's younger brothers are all adults, when Zhao Huan comes back, will they be willing to give up the throne? Isn't it another tragedy in the palace?

Uncle Zhang made up his mind at this time. The next day, he went out in person to visit the homes of the important ministers

Let the crown prince supervise the country, and now that the emperor is not in the capital, he has to be pushed by the ministers. Almost half of the important ministers in the court were taken away by Zhao Huan, and a few others were following King Kang Zhao Gou to the north to sue for peace, and their whereabouts are currently unknown.

Uncle Zhang first found Li Ruoshui, the servant of the ministry. Li Ruoshui has a good reputation, and the secretary of the ministry, Wang Shiyong, is not there, and the ministry is headed by him, and he is considered an important minister of the court.

Li Ruoshui was quite skeptical: "The Lord is benevolent, filial, merciful and thrifty, and has not committed any mistakes, so should he discuss and abolish the establishment lightly?" "If he hadn't known that Uncle Zhang had always been loyal to the country, Li Ruoshui would almost have chased away the guests.

Uncle Zhang said: "It's not to abolish the establishment, but just let the prince supervise the country, firstly, to give hope to the subjects, and secondly, to cut off the thoughts of the Jin people, they may be put back on the lord." ”

Li Ruoshui said: "Can you first agree to the conditions of the gold thief and let them return to the master." ”

"Let's not talk about the nature of the gold thief jackal, I will not keep my word and let people go. Where am I going to raise millions of gold now? ”

Li Ruoshui said: "The people of Bianliang are tired of Jun's grace, and each family raises ten gold ingots. Speaking of this, Li Ruoshui himself felt unreasonable. At that time, there was no standard exchange rate for gold and silver and copper coins, about one tael of gold was exchanged for about twenty taels of silver, and one tael of silver was exchanged for ten yuan of money, and ten ingots of gold were equivalent to at least two hundred taels of silver and two million coins, which was about equivalent to the income of each ordinary person for a hundred years.

Li Ruoshui was stuck for a while before turning around and said: "Why don't you make peace with the Jin people first, let them take a step back, and put the lord back on lower terms." ”

Uncle Zhang was very disappointed, he couldn't even pass Li Ruoshui's pass, so how could he persuade others?

Sure enough, former Prime Minister Tang Ke closed the door and disappeared, Li Hui wanted to "put life first, don't fight again", and Li Bangyan "would rather die than be a second gentleman".

He asked Liu Ziyu to ventilate with his father Liu Ju, but Liu Ju's attitude was the same as Li Ruoshui: d1();

In the evening, Wang Yu said to Hu Yangeng angrily: "Between the government and the opposition, they don't agree with letting the prince supervise the country, why can't they figure it out?" The crown prince's imprisonment of the country is the only way to maintain people's hearts and continue to resist the enemy at the moment. ”

"Jieshuai, it's not that they can't understand it, but they have their own selfish intentions." Hu Yangeng remembered his reaction in the original time and space, after the change of the civil fort in the Ming Dynasty in history, and the reactions of all the officials in the capital, he secretly made up his mind that he would not only insist on resisting the enemy, but also never let the change of seizing the door happen in this era.

"Then let Li Ruoshui go to the peace talks, and let him bring the official family back." Hu Yangeng originally had a lot of respect for Li Ruoshui, but seeing that he was so loyal to Zhao Huan, he was not very happy in his heart, so he called him by his name, "If you touch a nail, you won't be so old-fashioned." ”

So, in the absence of the ruling dynasty at that time, Zhang Shuye used Zhao Huan's secret decree of "staying behind on behalf of the sky" and Li Ruoshui and Xu Bingzhe as peace talks envoys to go to Jinying to negotiate conditions.

Li Ruoshui had a bitter face, and brought back the reply of the Jin people, which was also Zhao Huan's holy decree:

"The Dajin army has already landed in the city, and all the public and private property in the capital is Dajin's spoils. Now the Dajin Kingdom is afraid of the millions of living beings in Kaifeng City, so it does not go down the city wall. This is the supreme kindness of preserving the Great Song Dynasty and living the living beings in the capital.

Therefore, all the gold and silver money and silk demanded by Dajin should naturally be repaid with all their might, and not a horse or tael should be kept. The homes of officials and civilians may be looted at will, and all their property shall be lent to the imperial court. to repay Daikin for his kindness. ”

Li Ruoshui finished this passage, and Liu Ziyu, a military officer in the hall, immediately shouted: "I don't know who Li Shilang is going to send to loot, or will he personally appoint the 'looting envoy'?" Li Ruoshui's face was red and white, his mouth was tightly closed, and he didn't say a word.

After the church was dispersed, Uncle Zhang sent his son Zhang Bofen to ask Li Ruoshui for advice, Li Ruoshui said: "I have no objection, I listen to Zhang Xianggong's orders, and I only ask the Lord to return." ”

In this way, Uncle Zhang contacted Liu Ju, Li Ruoshui, and Sun Fu at night, and gathered enough of several important ministers to write to Queen Zhu and ask the prince to supervise the country. According to the practice of three invitations and three concessions, Empress Zhu rejected this request and waited for the courtier's second letter.

Originally, everything went well, but on February 27, Xu Bingzhe, the prefect of Kaifeng, came to look for trouble again, it turned out that all kinds of daily necessities of Bianliang residents relied on the import of all kinds of daily necessities from outside the city, since the Jin soldiers attacked the city, it has not been imported for three months, and at present Bianliang is short of all kinds of things, although there are reserves of staple food, but also the price of grain is high.

It was the responsibility of Kaifeng Mansion to solve the livelihood of the people, but now Xu Bingzhe threw this mess to Uncle Zhang.

Uncle Zhang was haggard and tired at night, so he had to ask Liu Ju to handle official business on his behalf, and let Hu Yangeng move to the Privy Council to give Liu Ju ideas. Hu Yangeng discussed with Liu Ziyu, Zhang Bofen, Zhang Zhongxiong and other military personnel to sort things out one by one.

The first is to agree to write again tomorrow and submit it to the crown prince to supervise the country.

The second is to open the Gen Yue, and send the Xiang army to collect and hunt the animals inside, d2(); Genyue is the imperial garden built by Zhao Ji, and now let the Xiang army cut down the trees and bamboos inside, tear down the houses, and use them to obtain firewood, and the animals raised in them are also allowed to be culled, and then the firewood and meat are sold at the same price at various relief points presided over by Lei Guan.

The third is to let Xu Bingzhe send an envoy to Jinying again, and he will be foolish. Xu Bingzhe threw a mess for Uncle Zhang at night, and Hu Yangeng sent him back and forth to Jinying to suffer some hardships.

But Hu Yangeng didn't expect that he made a big mistake in this third article. On the afternoon of 28 February, Xu Bingzhe returned from Jinying and brought back four people: He Li, Wang Shiyong, Wang Xiaodi, and Sun Yu. In order to express the sincerity of the peace talks, Jin Bing released these four people back.

These four people didn't even go home, and went straight to the Zhongshu Provincial Government Hall with Xu Bingzhe, which is where the real highest government organ of the Great Song Dynasty is located.

Dazai He Li sat down in the capital hall and ordered all the officials of the Xuanfu Division to go to the capital hall. On the night of Uncle Zhang, Sun Fu was ordered to go to the capital hall, and when he saw that even Shangshu Youcheng, who was not usually in charge of affairs, and Li Hui, the judge of the Xuanfu Division, were also there, and immediately felt that the situation was not good.

He Li saw that the officials above the seventh rank related to the battle defense of Bianjing had gathered, and immediately pulled out a holy decree, Zhao Huan's holy decree: "The generals and soldiers of the capital are lost, and the sect is in danger, and the people of Shanglai Jin talk about peace, and it is just a matter of cutting the land......" The holy decree said three meanings:

One said: Zhang Shuye, as the Xuanfu envoy of the two Beijing provinces, could not defend the capital, let the emperor be captured, almost to the Zongshe was in danger, the crime was not forgiven, and now he was arrested to the Jin camp, and the emperor Zhao Huan personally interrogated, in addition, all the ministers who advocated resistance during the invasion of the Jin State were responsible for provoking the Jin people, "Take forty-five relatives of the guards in the army." "Even the families of these vassals must be punished.

The second said: He Li was originally Dazai, and now he is sent back to Bianliang to sit in the capital and preside over the overall situation. Dazai He Li, Zhongshu Shilang Wang Xiaodi, and Shangshu Youcheng Li Hui have constituted a minimum number of Zaizhi, and Sun Yu is a Zhongshu Sheren who can draft various government decrees. Zhao Huan sent a complete administrative team back to carry out his orders.

Three said: The Jin people already knew that there were 10 million gold ingots, 20 million silver ingots, and 10 million silk horses, and the Song Dynasty could not raise them for a while.

The imperial concubine is discounted by 2,000 gold ingots, the imperial concubine, the princess (princess), and the princess are discounted by 1,000 gold ingots per mouth, the county lord (the daughter of the prince) is discounted by 500 gold ingots, the county lord (the daughter of the prince) is discounted by 200 gold ingots, the palace maid and the clan wife are discounted by 500 gold ingots, the singer is discounted by 200 silver ingots, the women of good families are discounted by 100 ingots of silver, and the maid is discounted by 500 taels of silver.

As soon as this holy decree came out, everyone was stunned, regardless of whether it was in the hall or down.

He Li said: "Come on, escort Zhang Shuye, Wang Yu, Zhe Yanzhen, Liu Ju and others for questioning." ”

However, no one moved. Because the front division of the palace had already followed Zhao Huan out of Beijing and was killed by Jin Bingge. Currently in the left side of the capital guard, d3();

He Li was still urging: "Hurry up, take down Uncle Zhang." ”

The whole audience was in a state of ignorance, but after so many years of hard work, so many hard battles, and the residents of the city were starving and freezing, did they get such a result?

Suddenly, a young general in the hall rushed up to the capital hall with a silver shovel in his hand: "This holy decree is not in accordance with the system, and it cannot be issued without the review of the matter." ”

Of course, it was Hu Yangeng who rushed up, and he shouted while rushing to the capital hall: "Where do you put the state system?" ”

In the Song Dynasty system, an edict could only become a formal decree after passing through three checkpoints, such as "making words", "book line" and "book reading" in the middle of the book, and it must be countersigned by the prime minister.

Hu Yangeng didn't know if He Li and the other four had taken the edict to the province for review, but he found that there was no province in the group of four, so he immediately decided to rush to the court.

He Li and others are all civil officials, where can they stand Hu Yangeng, Hu Yangeng snatched the edict and swept his eyes, and sure enough, he didn't give the seal in the matter, so he shouted: "This is a false edict." ”

Of course, he had already prepared that if there was a big seal on it, he would tear up the edict in front of the court and destroy the evidence.

Wang Shiyong was the first to react: "This reckless man actually roared in the capital hall, and he was still carrying weapons, so he was dragged down and beheaded." ”
