Chapter 802: Persuasion

Looking at Zhou Chang's corpse, the emperor felt very uncomfortable, and he ordered in a low voice: "Find a way to get him a coffin and bury it properly." ”

All of them were kept in custody and could move around within the range, but not beyond the range.

If a person dies and still has money on him, maybe his family can buy the Huns to help him put together a coffin, or else he will roll a roll of mats and throw it into a mass grave.

Here, there are no so-called nobles and families, all are captives, without dignity to speak of.

Zhou Chang had no family, and the domestic servants were captured as slaves in the army as early as when they were captured, and they didn't know whether they were dead or alive.

And when they were captured, all their money was looted, and most of them had no money left, so a coffin money, even if they had tens of millions of dollars, had to be scraped together at this time.

Everyone got together, and Zhao Zhongyu also donated a piece of jade, which was one of the few things on him.

When the people took the money they got together and went to the Huns to help buy the coffin, only the master and servant were slowly left in the hall.

Zhao Zhongyu asked the emperor, "Your Majesty still doesn't want to die?" ”

The Emperor did not speak.

Zhao Zhongyu cried and said: "Your Majesty will not die, and the ministers can only accompany you, just to see Your Majesty humiliated, our hearts are like knives, and I am afraid that we will not live long." ”

Zhao Zhongyu persuaded: "You should still die early, at least you can have more dignity." ”

The emperor said: "Where does the dignity of the king of the dead country come from? ”

He said, "Shang Shuling, I ...... I want to see what will happen to my Great Jin, and Zhao Tingshi should come to save me, right? ”

He looked at Zhao Zhongyu and said, "Even if it's not for me, for Aiqing, she will come, right?" ”

Zhao Zhongyu said: "Your Majesty, a king who has never been captured can go back alive to inherit the throne, and the clan still has King Wu......"

"King Wu is dead," the emperor said: "Liu Cong told me that when the city of Yuncheng was broken, he died at the hands of the rebel army, and there were twenty-eight people from the clan who were killed at that time, and I saw the list." ”

It's just that he was sad and worried about the loss of the country, so he didn't take it to heart.

Zhao Zhongyu was stunned for a moment and asked, "What about the King of Yuzhang, the King of Qin, and the King of Xindu?" ”

Unlike Zhao Hanzhang, Zhao Zhongyu is very familiar with the children of the clan, there is no way, the people of the Sima family are too capable of dying, and they have to prepare for the next emperor at all times.

Therefore, there are several children in the clan, who are estranged by blood, and their respective behaviors must be understood.

When Yuncheng City was broken, the crown prince also died, Zhao Zhongyu carefully calculated, and now the only ones left in the family of Emperor Wu of Jin are King Yuzhang, King Qin and King Xindu.

King Yuzhang is the younger brother of the crown prince, and he is also the son of King Kang of Qinghe, oh, the emperor has no son, and the prince is inherited.

It was still two years ago that someone hit Zhao Hanzhang's idea of entering the palace to be the queen, and not long after that, the emperor and the empress succeeded Sima Quan, the son of King Kang, as the crown prince.

He's only 10 years old.

King Yuzhang is even younger, nine years old this year, and Zhao Zhongyu looked at the emperor with blank eyes.

The emperor said: "He is not on the list, and the king of Qin and the king of Xindu have also disappeared and disappeared." ”

Zhao Zhongyu breathed a sigh of relief, King Qin and King Xindu were both sons of King Wu, but he passed a son to King Qin in his early years, so he inherited the prince of Qin at a young age.

At that time, he had many sons, and King Wu didn't care about giving one or two sons, anyway, they were all the bloodline of the Sima family, the title of the Sima family, and his son still got one for nothing, how good.

But now, after several wars, there are only two sons left, oh no, there is only one new king in name.

King Qin is also not very old, slightly younger than the crown prince, and he is also ten years old, and the king of Xindu is even younger, is he seven or eight years old?

Zhao Zhongyu can't remember his birthday.

At such an age, I don't know if they can survive in the troubled times, and if they survive, they can find people, if they get the clan in Yuzhou, they should support one to be the new emperor, right?

Gou Xi and Gou Chun were both arrested by Shi Le, and now no one in the Jin Kingdom can be stronger than Zhao Hanzhang, and the new emperor she set up should be able to convince the public.

Therefore, the existence of the Jin Emperor is not beneficial to Yuzhou and the Great Jin, and being a captive emperor in the enemy camp can be of any use except to be used by the enemy country to threaten the Great Jin?

If it was before, Zhao Zhongyu would not have admonished the emperor so directly, and the exhortation should also pay attention to skills, the emperor is his boss, and he still has to coax a little.

But now, they are all prisoners and prisoners, Zhao Zhongyu said bluntly: "Your Majesty, they will set up a new emperor, and there will also be new ministers. ”

"Early death and late death are deaths, so why be humiliated again, and then die after adding a sum to the history books?"

Emperor Jin opened his mouth and wanted to speak several times, but he couldn't.

Zhao Zhongyu seemed to know what he was thinking, and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty is thinking about the fact that if something happens to the three little princes, Jin will die in your country?" ”

Emperor Jin sighed and nodded.

"Your Majesty wants to protect yourself as the king of the fallen country, but you forget that the Sima family once killed the Son of Heaven on the street, and they have broken the rules first, and the Huns don't know the etiquette and the wolf is ambitious, how can they respect the etiquette of our Chinese people?" Zhao Zhongyu urged: "Instead of dying in humiliation, it is better to commit suicide as soon as possible." ”

If Emperor Jin were a weak person, I am afraid that he would have been persuaded by Zhao Zhongyu, but he was not, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, and even if he wanted to die, he couldn't do it himself, and he was not happy to let Zhao Zhongyu do it.

If you can't do it, let's live first.

When Zhao Zhongyu saw it, he couldn't help but feel even more sad, in fact, if Emperor Jin had the possibility of survival, he was still willing to try his best to protect him, after all, the monarch and the ministers were one.

He is a minister, and he should be the king.

But no matter how he looked, it was impossible for the Huns to follow the Chinese etiquette to keep Emperor Jin alive, and after today's events, Zhao Zhongyu became more and more sure.

The king of the dead country should be treated kindly.

Since the Xia and Shang dynasties, the Huaxia people have had this tradition, and when the country changes, they should be kind to the emperors and their remnants of the previous dynasty, which is a 2,000-year-old tradition.

After two thousand years of inheritance, there was an accident here at Sima's house.

The Sima family stole power and dared to kill the emperor on the street, even if Zhao Zhongyu was loyal to the Jin Kingdom, he would have to spit on it in his heart.

It is justifiable for Emperor Wei Wen to replace the Han family, regardless of whether Emperor Han Xian was forced to give up the throne, anyway, he opened his mouth to cede the imperial throne to Emperor Wei Wen.

And Emperor Wen also took the throne after three resignations.

After Emperor Han Xian retreated, Emperor Wen of Wei also treated the other party preferentially, so that he lived for another fourteen years and died of his life, oh, an extra mention, Emperor Wen of Wei died earlier than Emperor Han Xian, and finally Emperor Ming, the son of Emperor Wen, sent Emperor Han Xian away, and after the death of the person, he also took the ministers to cry and sacrifice, and the funeral and sacrifice were according to the specifications of the emperor.

And before the Sima family took over the throne from Emperor Wei Yuan, there was also a Wei Emperor who had been erased, and for more than 60 years, no one dared to mention the emperor who was killed on the street, deposed as a concubine, and stripped of the emperor's title, but among the family scholars, who doesn't know this emperor?

It has been more than 50 years since the Sima family won the world, but they can't convince people, isn't it because they broke their alliance and lost their promises and plotted to usurp the throne?

Now, Emperor Jin actually wants to protect himself with the ritual traditions that have been destroyed by them, and the target is still the Xiongnu, how ridiculous is it?
