Hearing that the palace was urgently summoned, Cao Bin's heart jumped, and he had already expected it.

Busy with the service of the maid, he hurriedly put on his court clothes and boarded the carriage to rush to the imperial city.

The entire city of Kaifeng was shrouded in boiling snow, and the "squeak" sound of the wheels crushing the snow made the streets seem silent and deserted.

"Your Majesty, Zhongjing has arrived."

In the Funing Palace, there were already more than twenty or thirty important ministers waiting, and when Cao Bin arrived, the eunuchs were busy reminding them before the collapse.

The emperor opened his eyes, nodded slightly, turned his head to look at the ministers, and said weakly:

"I am not talented, Chong Ling succeeded to the throne, so that the country is turbulent, and the world is restless."

"Fortunately, thanks to the assistance of all the virtuous ministers, I can rule the world, and I am dying today, but I am calling the courtiers of the clan to entrust the future!"

The ministers bowed their heads one after another, and said sadly:

"Please Your Majesty take good care of the dragon body and recover soon!"

The Emperor beckoned:

"Prime Minister, Prime Minister, sit on the side of the couch and come to my side......"

When Wang Yanling heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his head to listen to the emperor's instructions.

The Emperor said weakly:

"The prince is young and has to be burdened by the world, and in the future, the affairs of the court will be entrusted to the prime minister alone."

Wang Yanling suddenly burst into tears, nodded again and again:

"Your Majesty's trust, how dare the minister not exhaust his strength and serve him to death?"

He supported Duanwang to compete for the throne, thinking that he would be degraded soon, but he didn't expect that the emperor not only trusted him as before, but even let him serve as the sole minister of the political hall, which made him both ashamed and moved.

Seeing this, the emperor nodded with satisfaction, looked at Cao Bin and said:

"Juncai, come here."

Seeing this, Cao Bin hurriedly took Wang Yanling's place, and said with tears in his eyes:

"Your Majesty, take care."

The Emperor clasped his hands tightly and said:

"Juncai is young, with the talent of Wei Huo, I want the monarch and the minister to work together to pacify the Western Xia, recover Youyan, and restore the foundation of the Han and Tang Dynasties."

"Oh...... However, the day is not a holiday, and the middle way is goodbye, which makes people sigh. ”

"I get along with the kings and ministers, I hope that Juncai will take care of my son, don't make me have regrets after death."

Cao Bin hurriedly wiped his tears and nodded:

"I am willing to follow the work of dogs and horses, do my best, and die."

The Emperor continued:

"Qing has a daughter, who is the same age as the crown prince, and can be the crown princess."

Cao Bin was originally very moved, but when he heard this, he suddenly became a little reluctant.

He was already very fond of his daughter, and he didn't want to make a marriage contract for her, let alone a place like the palace?

What if you become a queen as soon as you enter the palace?

In all dynasties, how many queens died well?

Not to mention the hard life, it is still very dangerous......

Although Cao Bin himself was reluctant, the ministers were already extremely envious, and the honor of the queen was not easy to obtain.

And they all know that Cao Bin's daughter is still a concubine, and this grace has reached the extreme.

Pan Renmei's eyes were red with jealousy, he was still thinking about choosing a queen for the little emperor in his own house, but he didn't expect to be preempted by Cao Bin's concubine.

Seeing that Cao Bin did not immediately thank him, the emperor also thought that he was scrupling about his daughter's background, and comforted:

"Don't think about your background......"

So far, Cao Bin has to pinch his nose and agree, if his daughter can't look down on the little emperor in the future, she will regret the marriage.

Anyway, that's his godson, and if he doesn't accept it, he will be beaten!

Seeing that the emperor finished talking to Cao Bin, Pan Renmei thought that she would call herself, but she didn't expect the emperor to rank him after Cao Bin, but now she directly passed him and summoned Bao Zheng.

This made him very depressed, and he was not as good as a minister of three or four grades.

Just when he thought that the emperor would see Bao Zheng and it would be his turn, the emperor called She Taijun again:

"Old lady, your Yang family is loyal and strong, and I don't have any entrustment."

"But in order to save you from worrying about the future, I will give you a gift before I die,....."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and several eunuchs immediately took out a plaque with four golden characters on it: "Home of Loyal Martyrs".

At this time, the emperor's breathing suddenly became a little short, and he said with difficulty:

"With this plaque, as long as your Yang family does not conspire against the law, the court will never add guilt."

Seeing this, She Taijun was grateful, but also ashamed.

She didn't expect that the emperor had already thought of the grudge between the Pan and Yang families and solved their worries in the future.

He was bent on protecting the Yang family, but he was doing useless work, and he almost made a big mistake......

Looking at the emperor's weak and sick body, for a while, the old lady mourned in his heart and burst into tears.

The emperor didn't notice it, and finally looked at Pan Renmei:

"Taishi ......"

Pan Renmei was annoyed that the Yang family had obtained the imperial plaque, and when she heard the emperor's greeting, she hurriedly trotted forward and said to her:

"Your Majesty, the old minister is here, the old minister is here!"

At this time, the emperor's speech was already a little unclear, and he only heard him say vaguely:

"I ...... I have one more word. ”

"Now the state affairs are difficult, not ...... Don't fight for power. ”

"In the future, if there is an internal matter that is undecided, you can listen to the words of the prime minister."

"If you are undecided about foreign affairs, you can listen to the advice of Juncai......"

Pan Renmei heard this, and her face suddenly stiffened, what is it, you called me just to tell me this? How much this looks down on me.

It's just that all the ministers have already received the order, and he has no choice but to respond.

But it's no wonder that the emperor is really a little sluggish during this time.

If you want to say that he is incapable, it may not be, at least he can lead troops to fight with the Liao.

It's just that in recent years, he has been too immersed in intrigue and intrigues, and there have been some cognitive gaps in his hard power.

Just when Pan Renmei doubted life, the emperor's mind had gradually blurred, and he muttered:

"Mother, Mother......."

When he was a child, he was forcibly fostered by the first emperor under the knees of Empress Dowager Liu and separated from his biological mother.

Now people are dying, but after all, they miss their biological mother.

Some ministers were puzzled, thinking that he was worried about the safety of Empress Dowager Liu, so they hurriedly said:

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the ministers will definitely save the Queen Mother back."

It's just that the emperor didn't react, and gradually lost his breath......

The imperial doctor hurriedly stepped forward to investigate, and it took a long time before he knelt down and cried:

"Your Majesty...... Crashed! ”

When the ministers heard this, they knelt on the ground and wept bitterly:

"Your Majesty......"

At the same time, the palace bell rang out continuously, and it spread throughout Tokyo in the heavy snow......

In the capital, someone suddenly woke up from a dream, counting the bells with a nervous face, and there were also spies from Liao, Western Xia, Goryeo and other parties, spreading the news in all directions.

Somewhere in Guanzhong.

A team of retinues was escorting Zhao Ji and the Empress Dowager to flee to Western Xia quickly.

Empress Dowager Liu was so tired that she was panting, and looked at Zhao Ji with frost on her face:

"Zhao Ji, you just run away by yourself, why do you forcibly detain the mourning family?"

Since entering the palace, she has been pampered, where has she suffered such a crime? Now, she regrets that her intestines are blue, and she feels that she shouldn't help Zhao Ji.

What's a bad idea? Deviated from the idea of a "heavy ear escape".

It's a good idea, but it's a mess.

Zhao Ji said helplessly:

"Queen Mother, the imperial brother must be arresting his son everywhere now, if there is no support from you, how can the son pass through the pass and escape from the Great Song Dynasty?"

"You have pity on your poor son, and when you get out of the Great Song Dynasty, your son will immediately send someone to send you back."

"Don't worry, if I become the emperor in the future, I will definitely treat you as my own mother, you just want to be regent, and my son will agree!"

Although she got Zhao Ji's assurance, Empress Dowager Liu's face did not improve much, if she really arrived in Western Xia, would the other party let Zhao Ji let her go?
