Chapter 3 The First Pilgrimage

The main hall of the royal palace.

The first time he sat on the throne belonging to King Zheng, the wide chair made Zhao Yu barely reach the armrests, which made him very unaccustomed to it.

I, a prince who eats and waits for death and has no ambitions, how did I become King Zheng?

His eyes were cast on the ministers under the hall with different expressions, but what he saw in his eyes were Duo'er, Xia Yi, the human world and other people who 'followed him'.

His confused gaze gradually became firm, and he said in a deep voice: "Three days ago, the King of Liao was killed by King Jin himself, and the Liao State was destroyed!" ”

"Ah......h

The ministers were all guessing what Zhao Yu's opening remarks would be, and most of them were inclined to say that Zhao Yu would explain the matter of seizing the throne by splitting the earth, but they never expected that he would spit out a shocking news when he opened his mouth!

The Liao State was destroyed, do these ministers know?

I really don't know.

Although there is a rail carriage, the transmission of information from the Holy Soul Continent is still not so convenient, and it takes about three days from Liao to Zheng, except for King Zheng, which minister will have a spy in Liao and send it back day and night after getting the news?

Even because the tyrant didn't say it, all the ministers knew was that the situation in the Liao country was severe.

A country the size of Zheng Guo was destroyed like this? How long did the war start?

It's only been a month! One day and one city, you can't beat the city of Liao!

"The situation is critical, and it is estimated that it will take three months for the Jin State to integrate the rear of the Liao State, but everything must be taken into account for the worst possibility, so the matter of the Lone King's ascension to the throne is simple. The officials of the Ministry of Rites arranged a blessing ceremony, and tomorrow morning, Lone will worship the Father! ”

Zhao Yu didn't give them time to think, and said directly: "After worshiping the father, the orphan will go to the southwest border in person, and find a way to sign a truce agreement or even an alliance with Qi to fight against Jin together!" ”

The tyrant's control over the court is extremely strong, as evidenced by Wu Xian's discovery that almost all the faces in the court have changed overnight.

Of course, more than half of these people in front of him should just be afraid of King Zheng's cruelty, but a small half of them are indeed King Zheng's diehards.

Zhao Yu couldn't find them one by one, and the current situation didn't allow him to do that!

At the suggestion of the world, he decided to jump out of the court first, make merits, attract those who are simply afraid of King Zheng's 'popularity', and establish his own team. In fact, he also wanted to directly do another big change, but Zheng Guo's talent pool no longer allowed him to do so.

Under the hall, a middle-aged man around fifty years old lowered his head slightly, and the power of a holy soul quietly surged, poking at a young imperial historian who was the last of the courtiers, the young man's expression changed slightly, and he gritted his teeth and stood up to Zhao Yu.

"Second Highness, the minister has something to do."

"Called the lonely king." Zhao Yu said.

"Before sacrificing to the father, first call the king, it is not in accordance with the ceremony!" The young Yushi shook his head.

Zhao Yu bowed his head: "Then after Gu worships Father God tomorrow, you can talk about your affairs." ”

The young man was stunned for a moment, his expression changed, and finally he seemed to relax a little, and he really retreated.

The middle-aged man frowned violently, and the power of the Holy Soul poked him, and then poked, and suddenly felt that the 'poke feeling' was not quite right, and his eyes were tilted to that side.

His face suddenly stiffened.

Beside the young Yushi, Xia Yi stood quietly at some point, and the power of the Holy Soul poked a few times later, and all of them poked Xia Yi's body!

Xia Yi also smiled at him, and the middle-aged man's body tensed up instantly!

Zhao Yu noticed Xia Yi who suddenly appeared, was slightly stunned, followed Xia Yi's gaze, and suddenly asked in his heart, "Doctor Yushi, do you have something to say?" Just say it to Lonely. ”

Zheng Guo Chaotang, at the top, one is the prime minister, the second is the captain, and the third is the imperial doctor.

At present, the positions of prime minister and lieutenant are vacant, and the imperial doctor is the foreman of the courtiers.

This imperial history doctor is called Zhang Qigong, this imperial history is different from the imperial history of the official, equivalent to the deputy prime minister, in the past, when Han Chuanzhong was in power, he was just an obscure deputy, but in fact, he was a diehard loyalist of the tyrant, and Han Chuanzhong was played by the tyrant in the palm of his hand, and most of it was through him!

After a moment's pause, Zhang Qigong stood up and said:

"Your Majesty, I don't know what to do with the funeral of the first king?"

Zhao Yu was silent for a few seconds, and replied categorically: "The funeral will not be handled!" ”

Another small burst of soft shouts sounded, and all the courtiers couldn't help but raise their heads to secretly observe Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu said in a deep voice: "The crime of killing my father against the king, I, Zhao Yu, admit it, I will not use some modified words to refute it, let alone shift the responsibility to others.

The merits and demerits are judged by their own descendants! ”

This attitude made Zhang Qigong choke back when he was ready. If Zhao Yu categorically denied it, or even prevaricated the murder of his father, this matter would have to be said, and mentioning it from time to time would eventually cause dissatisfaction among some ministers who were polite.

But Zhao Yu responded directly, and he found that there was really nothing to say, so he let Zhao Yu give way? It's impossible. And that sentence of merit and demerit has its own posterity, although it is not explicitly stated, but it will cause the courtiers to associate with King Zheng's cruelty.

When future generations see this record, will they really scold Zhao Yu for killing his father? Or will you praise Zhao Yu for saving Zheng Guo from fire and water?

'There is a master behind His Royal Highness, and he can't do anything, so he will go into more detail and burn himself. Zhang Qigong secretly thought, took a step back and said nothing.

He was sure that Zhao Yu, who had not yet ascended the throne, could not directly replace him. Tyrant ex-ministers? Who in the court is not a tyrant anymore?

If he were to be replaced on the first day, everyone would be in danger and the hearts of the people would be scattered...... The premise is that he doesn't stand up and jump sideways repeatedly.

Sure enough, Zhao Yu didn't target him, and even said: "At this moment, the central prime minister and the lieutenant of the court are vacant, and the operation of the court is inconvenient. As for the position of prime minister, it will be temporarily taken by the Imperial Doctor. ”

Well? Zhang Qigong was slightly surprised, and asked him to temporarily take the position of prime minister? What does it mean, to be bought? He had to stand up again: "The minister obeys." ”

As for Zhang Tong, a veteran of several dynasties who will serve as a lieutenant in the future, no one will raise any objections.

Zhao Yu said again: "The position of the Imperial Doctor cannot be vacant, and I am alone with Yanzhou Shousun Sheng to take over this position, what do you think?" ”

I see... Zhang Qigong suddenly realized that Zhao Yu's preferred candidate for prime minister must be Sun Sheng, who has the merit of the king, but in terms of seniority and ability, he, the imperial historian, is the best of the best.

If Sun Sheng is directly appointed as prime minister, there will definitely be people from him who will stand up and speak for him.

But at this time, he was appointed as the prime minister first, no, the temporary prime minister, he could no longer object to this, and it was also a normal promotion for the state guard to the imperial doctor, so he could only let it go.

And he, the acting prime minister, is really like a lamb to be slaughtered, maybe when he will be deposed with an excuse and replaced by Sun Sheng!

'It's really not to be underestimated, is Yi Xia giving him advice? Thinking in his heart, he complied with the ministers and seconded the proposal together, it seems that what to do next is to be considered in the long run, and Zhao Yu can't be caught by any handle!

At this time, Zhao Yu got up and arched his hand: "Senior, three days ago, you witnessed the scene when the Liao State was destroyed, and I bother you to tell Gu and the ministers about the situation in the north today. ”

Xia Yi bowed his head, slowly walked to the front, stood beside Zhang Qigong, turned around and said, "Maybe some people don't know the old man. The old man Xia Yi, who used to be known as Yi Xia, killed the tyrant by me. The first time you heard the name of the old man, it should have been when I killed the Rat Demon King Duan He, or earlier, when I offended the former Prime Minister Han Chuanzhong? ”

Speaking of this, regardless of the reaction of the ministers, he smiled and said: "Strange to say, I seem to have a bit of a conflict with the prime minister of Da Zheng, Han Chuanzhong is like this, and the new prime minister is the same." ”

Zhang Qigong's face immediately froze, and he arched his hand and said:

"Why did the seniors say this, I have great respect for the seniors."

Xia Yi sighed: "Really? The old man was standing in the back in a low-key manner, but you poked and provoked me with the power of the Holy Soul, I don't know what it means? ”

Who am I trying to poke, you don't count? The dignified king is such a brazen person?

“…… Seniors, you and I both know that it was a misunderstanding. Zhang Qigong said.

"Oh, misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Xia Yi nodded: "Let me make it clear to everyone first, there is just a misunderstanding between me and this new prime minister, it is really just a misunderstanding, and the old man has no grudges."

Alas, once bitten by a snake, I was afraid of the well rope for ten years. Just because of the conflict between me and Han Xiang, after Han met and died violently, countless people regarded that incident as the old man's doing, which was really disturbing.

Witness, if the new prime minister accidentally dies again, it will definitely have nothing to do with the old man! ”

Zhang Qigong: "......"

Ministers: "......"

Xia Yi smiled and said: "Let's get down to business, three days ago, the old man looked at the tail of Wang Zhan, and the golden king axe split the king of Liao and promoted to the true king." Many people may not understand the division of the king's strength, and they don't know how grim the situation is......"
