Chapter 1, Verse 13 The Truth of the Candle Shadow Axe

The wind and rain are dashing, and the candle shadow is red.

In the vertical arch hall, Zhao Guangyi was reviewing the chapters, and suddenly he was a little sleepy, he took out a delicate box on the square table, and the bottom of the box was engraved with a few words: Yunping Mountain Baiyun Guantai real person special, the box contained a delicate small medicine bottle, and poured out a pill from the small medicine bottle.

It is said that this Tantai real person, commonly known as Fan Yunfei, was a Taoist who became a monk halfway, and fled here with his wife and children in order to escape the war.

Zhao Guangyi swallowed the pill and walked to the bed, lying on the bed to rest, and saw his brother Zhao Kuangyin sitting on the chair in Funing Palace in his sleep, looking like a sunny.

Outside the window, the wind and rain are bleak, and the lightning is thundering.

Zhao Guangyi woke up from his sleep, and he will never forget the night his brother Zhao Kuangyin died.

The sky was covered in snow, and the entire palace was covered in snow.

That night, he was ordered to enter the palace, and his brother was drinking, Queen Song was waiting on the side, and as soon as Zhao Guangyi, the king of Jin, came in, Queen Song's face was a little surprised, because Zhao Kuangyin asked Wang Jien to summon Zhao Defang, the fourth prince of Qin, Queen Song poured wine for Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi while laughing, and the two brothers were drunk.

In the early morning of the next day, the female girl who cleaned the Funing Palace, because she knocked on the door for a long time, did not see anyone answering the door, so she pushed the door in, and then saw Zhao Kuangyin and Queen Song lying on the bed peacefully, and Zhao Guangyi fell asleep against the table, she thought that the two brothers and Queen Song were asleep, so she cleaned it with her own hands and feet, and left after cleaning.

Zhao Guangyi, the king of Jin, woke up from his sleep, his hazy eyes, but he also felt a splitting headache, his body was tired and weak, this was clearly not drunk, but poisoned, he walked to the bed, probed his brother Zhao Kuangyin's snort, but found that his brother Zhao Kuangyin had already lost his breath, he touched his body again, it was already stiff, he shook Queen Song, Queen Song woke up from her sleep, Queen Song called Zhao Kuangyin coquettishly: "Everyone, get up quickly, the sky is already bright, and the court meeting is going to be late."

"Stop screaming, he'll never wake up again, he's dead".

Empress Song was startled and stood up: "It's you, it must be you, for this throne, it was you who bought Wang Jien, and it was you who poisoned the official family."

"Sage, you are the only one here who told me that you killed him."

Empress Song turned her head to look at Zhao Kuangyin, who was already dead in bed.

"Now you can only support me to ascend to the throne, in order to shut everyone up, here except for me, you are the biggest suspect, think about it, but, the person is really not the person I killed, anyway, he is so weak, and he doesn't need me to know how to do it at all, there must be someone who can't wait, I admit, I want the throne, but I also want you."

After Zhao Guang finished speaking, he walked out.

Empress Song wiped away her tears, stood up, and pushed the door open.

"Your Majesty, Death, Your Majesty, Death, Your Majesty, Death".

For a while, the news of Zhao Kuangyin's sudden death spread, and everyone speculated, and the ministers were also expressing their opinions about who would inherit the throne.

Some supported the second prince Zhao Dezhao, and some supported the fourth prince Zhao Defang, due to the previous agreement of the queen mother, but also occasionally supported Zhao Tingmei, Queen Song walked up to the Daqing Palace, stopped in front of the dragon chair and suddenly quieted down.

"Prime Minister Zhao Pu took a step forward and started something."

"Quasi-Concert".

"The minister remembers that in June of the second year of Jianlong, that is, the second year of the emperor's accession to the throne, when the Empress Dowager Du was seriously ill, she knew that her life was short, so she summoned me to the palace. At that time, the Empress Dowager Du: "Do you know how you got the world" The first emperor was puzzled, and only said: "I got the world, only because of the blessing of the ancestors and the queen mother", the queen mother shook her head and said: "No, if it weren't for Zhou Shizong's early death, you can only let the young son inherit the throne, you can take advantage of it, the city of Chen Qiao to raise troops, if the Zhou family has an older stepson, this world will get you so, you have to pass on the throne to your younger brother after death, because the country has an older monarch, in order to prevent others from seizing the country, the Great Song Dynasty can be long-term peace and stability."

The emperor said with tears in his eyes: "How dare I not listen to the children and obey the teachings of their mothers!"

Then, Empress Dowager Du turned to me and said, "You remember, don't disobey!" The minister immediately wrote an oath in front of the queen mother's bed,

And at the end of the signature "Chenpu Ji" three words, and then hid the oath in the golden plaque, handed over to the cautious palace people for protection, but this book can not be taken out yet."

The country can't be without a king for a day, since the queen mother has a word first, even if the last move is just a verbal message, according to what the queen mother Du said, the brother will end up with the brother, then it can only be the king of Jin."

The crowd was silent.

With the support of everyone, Zhao Guangyi walked step by step onto the high dragon chair in Daqing Hall.

Zhao Guangyi woke up from his sleep, he was also puzzled, although he also wanted to ascend to the throne, but the person was really not killed by him, let alone killed by Queen Song, and he didn't know the truth of the candle shadow axe, although the body of the emperor at that time looked uninjured on the surface, no trace to be found, but on the real side, the internal organs were afraid of damage.

Zhao Guangyi suddenly had great difficulty breathing, and then passed out.

In March of the third year of the Dao, Zhao Guangyi died, and the temple was called Taizong.
