Empress Dowager Du said: "This right is good, but it is also something that makes people lost. I just can't rest assured that in all dynasties, brothers and brothers abound. The three of you must live in harmony and peace. Do you understand? ”

Zhao Kuangyin knelt down and said, "Obey the decree of the queen mother!" Erchen must be kind to the two brothers. ”

"Good...... So...... The queen mother is also relieved, get up quickly! ”

Zhao Kuangyin stood up, turned to Zhao Pu and said, "Zhao Aiqing, can you understand what I said to the Queen Mother just now?" The matter must be kept confidential and must not be divulged. ”

Zhao Pu hurriedly knelt down, "The queen mother and the emperor trust the minister so much, and the minister guarantees that he will not leak half a word." ”

"Okay, you draw up an edict, and write it according to what the Queen Mother and I discussed just now."

"Yes." Zhao Pu sat down at the table and began to draft the edict.

It was written after a while, and Zhao Kuangyin took it and read it to Empress Dowager Du.

Empress Dowager Du nodded, agreed, and ordered someone to take the seal of the Queen Mother and stamp it, and Zhao Kuangyin also ordered someone to take the jade seal and stamp it.

After everything was handled, Zhao Pu held the edict and asked, "Your Majesty, where should this edict be stored?" ”

Zhao Kuangyin thought for a while, "Put it in the golden skull of the vertical arch hall!" When the time is ripe in the future, I will read it out myself. In case of...... One day, when I died suddenly, you and the rest of the important ministers took it out. Announce to the world and assist King Wei to ascend the throne. ”

Zhao Pu held the edict with both hands, knelt on the ground, and said solemnly: "The minister obeys the order!"

Zhao Guangyi was hidden behind the curtain, and no one found him.

Motionless, as if his breathing had stopped, his whole body was cold.

I want to go, but I can't open my legs.

For a moment, the mood was like experiencing a hot summer and suddenly falling into a cold winter.

From never having the luxury of the throne to the sudden hope, but in an instant this hope came to naught.

And it was broken by the most respected and beloved queen mother and royal brother.

Listening to them praise Zhao Ting every word, listening to the queen mother's evaluation and defense of herself.

His heart seemed to be shattering and dripping blood.

If the throne can be passed to a brother, then at least he should be considered.

Even if he discussed himself as a candidate, he would not be so heartbroken. After all, he has also made a lot of contributions, that is, the Chen Qiao Mutiny, and the yellow robe of the imperial brother is also the result of his and Zhao Pu's strong instigation and planning.

But even as a candidate - he was not considered in the slightest.

He's like a joke, an obstacle, a person who can live without.

It turned out that they only had Zhao Ting in their hearts - he was the only one.

Suddenly I realized that all this was so cruel.

The great sadness, the feeling of being deceived and abandoned by a loved one - it hurts to the heart.

Zhao Pu put away the edict, kowtowed and walked out of the Zide Palace.

Zhao Guangyi walked out silently, looking at Zhao Pu's back in the distance, with endless sadness, unwillingness and anger in his heart.

His face slipped coldly, and he reached out to touch it.

It turned out to be tears, and I actually shed tears.

I don't remember how old I was when I didn't cry, it turns out that tears are like this, and it turns out that tears make my heart hurt even more.

Walking towards the outside of the palace, everything here suddenly became strange and terrifying.

Looking up at the heavy buildings, it was like a monster laughing at him with its huge bloody mouth open.

thought that the world could be divided equally, that one person could be above ten thousand people, that it was glorious and rich, and that everything belonged to the Zhao family.

But since entering the palace, everything has changed.

There are no more three sons of the Zhao family.

From now on, there will only be kings and ministers!

Only power and humiliation!

Lost his soul and returned to the Jin Palace, closed the door to thank the guests, and sat alone in the room all night drinking.

Shouldn't I be the closest person to my mother? Why does she only have Zhao Ting in her heart?

Thinking about it over and over again, the liquor poured into his mouth in one gulp, and he couldn't relieve the irritability in his heart.

In fact, he himself didn't understand why he was so angry and sad.

Is it just the anger queen and the imperial brother's uncertainty about themselves?

Or maybe the angry queen and the royal brother want to hide it?

He asked over and over again.

Suddenly, a voice sounded in my heart, could it be.... Always wanted to get this dragon chair? That's why you care so much?

Thinking of this, Zhao Guangyi was full of excitement, and half of his wine was sober.

Suddenly there was a shouting outside.

"Your Highness, Your Highness!"

"What's the ghost called?" Zhao Guangyi's wine jug smashed on the door frame, and he had the urge to kill.

The voice outside was the housekeeper of the Jin Palace, shouting with a crying voice: "Someone from the palace has come to spread that His Royal Highness will enter the palace quickly." Dowager.... The Queen Mother...."

Zhao Guangyi rushed over and slammed the door open, shouting, "What's wrong with the Queen Mother?" ”

"The Queen Mother is not good!" The butler knelt on the ground and cried.

"Get out!" Zhao Guangyi yelled and kicked the housekeeper over.

Staggered out.

Drunk rushed to the Zide Palace

The hall was full of people kneeling, and all the important ministers and palace people were kneeling and waiting quietly.

The hall was also full of royal physicians.

Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Ting stood by the bed with sad faces.

And the Empress Dowager Du on the bed was already angry, and the imperial doctor Ling knelt beside the bed and trembled with fright, but still had to shake his head.

Zhao Guangyi rushed forward and shouted angrily: "Didn't you take the elixir?" Why is it getting worse again? ”

Zhao Kuangyin saw that he still had the heart to drink, frowned, and was about to reprimand a few words, but he didn't care about him at this time, so he didn't talk.

Zhao Ting pulled him aside, so that his alcohol would not collide with the sick body.

"Although Bi Chan Dan is good, it can only temporarily alleviate the condition, not cure it. Before, I was afraid that it would be a return to the light. ”

Zhao Guangyi just spoke.

Suddenly, the Empress Dowager Du on the sickbed raised her hand weakly, and groped around with her eyes closed.

Zhao Kuangyin hurriedly held her hand and asked softly, "The sons and daughters are here!" ”

"Brother...... Junior...... Same...... Heart ......" Empress Dowager Du barely said a few faint words.

Zhao Guangyi's wine surged, and he rushed forward and cried: "Queen Mother...... Queen mother...... You can't leave your sons...... behind," he cried.

Crying like a child.

Empress Dowager Du opened her eyes weakly and looked at him, and wanted to say something more, but she couldn't make a sound no matter how hard she tried, and her head tilted and swallowed.

The three brothers suddenly cried out in pain.

The civil and military officials kneeling inside and outside the hall and all the palace people also cried, and suddenly there was a wail in the palace.

Empress Dowager Du died, at the age of 60, nicknamed the Empress Dowager Zhaoxian, and was buried in Anling.

The whole country mourns.

The national funeral lasted for more than a month before the resumption of the government.

The emperor summoned two princes and several important ministers to the imperial study to discuss matters.

Zhao Kuangyin sat behind the middle book case and said: "Now there are no worries in the Song Dynasty, but there are still so many countries around it, if it is not cleared, it will be restless after all." I decided to continue the war, unify the Central Plains, and support the world. What do you think? ”

"My brother agreed. Then let's fight the Northern Han first! The younger brother is willing to lead the army into battle. Zhao Guangyi was the first to stand up and said.

These days have been depressed, and I have long wanted to find a way to vent.
