Gaozong went upstairs to ask Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan why they rebelled, Miao Fu said that the military advice was a last resort, and then accused Gaozong of trusting the eunuchs, and befriending the eunuchs could get a high position, Wang Boyan and Huang Qianshan were mediocre and misguided but had not yet been exiled, and Wang Yuan could not effectively resist when he encountered the enemy.

Miao Fu claimed that he had advised Wang Yuan, but he was suspicious of the villain, gave him a cold reception for no reason, and unjustly killed Chen Tong, the commander of the water division, and deserved to die for his crime, and said that he had killed Wang Yuan, and hunted and killed the eunuchs outside, and coerced Gaozong to kill Kang Lu, Lan Gui, and Zeng Xue, the three closest eunuchs, to thank the three closest eunuchs.

Gaozong's face was ugly upstairs, and the appointment of Wang Yuan was indeed caused by his own negligence, but the Great Song Dynasty court has always been lenient to his subordinates and scholars, and Taizu has a testament "Don't kill scholars!" "How can Miao Fu and the others kill Wang Yuan? However, the current situation had to appease everyone, so Gaozong replied that if the eunuchs were at fault, they could be exiled to the island, and immediately appointed Miao Fu as the envoy of Chengxuan and the commander of the imperial camp, and Liu Zhengyan as the observer envoy and the deputy commander of the imperial camp, hoping that the coup would be quelled.

But the rebels did not retreat, and Miao Fu also shouted that if he only wanted to be promoted, he just needed to contact the eunuchs, so why bother here? Gaozong asked the opinions of the ministers around him, and Shi Ximeng, the head of the pacification department of Xi'an, Zhejiang, said that the disaster was caused by the eunuchs, and if all the eunuchs were not killed, they could not be quelled. ”

Kang Lu was frightened and immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Gaozong like pounding garlic, and shouted: "Your Majesty spares your life!" ”

Xiao Ming said on the side: "The eunuch is not a doctor, although he has received the favor of His Majesty, but he does not know the inspection, modesty and self-discipline, colludes with foreign ministers, and uses power for personal gain, you really deserve to die, but even if Kang Lu is guilty, he should be convicted by the three laws of the official family, how can he be killed indiscriminately in lynching?" ”

Lan Gui, who was on the side of Kang Lu, gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty is coerced, he will not kill his subordinates in vain, and the ministers are guilty, so they should be self-determined, and they don't want to involve the officials!" After saying that, he jumped down the tall building and fell to his death downstairs, Gaozong wept silently, Xiao Ming saw that this was not a solution, his tiger guard had not yet arrived, and it seemed that he could only delay the army.

He stood up and said to the following: "The advanced Jin foreign invasion, you and the emperor are committed by kidnapping the emperor to commit rebellion, and you still say that you are dedicated to the country, isn't it a private act in your heart?" ”

Liu Zhengyan looked up and saw Xiao Ming, bowed his head and discussed with Miao Fu, they were a little afraid of Xiao Ming, knowing that Xiao Ming's bodyguard was powerful, and he had set up a horse army to prevent them from coming to the rescue, but now he didn't dare to act lightly, so he shouted to the top, claiming that he was just killing the thief, how could the matter on the side of the Qing monarch be regarded as a rebellion? ”

Xiao Ming said: "Since it is the side of the thief Qingjun, you wait"

He grabbed Kang Lu, who was already fainting, and kicked down the tall building with one kick, and the troops below were in an uproar, Kang Lu did not fall to death, he struggled to get up, and was grabbed by Miao Fu's sergeant, and directly slashed the ground with a big knife, and blood flowed all over the ground. Xiao Ming shouted upstairs: "Retire!" ”

But at this time, Miao Fu shouted under the city again: "Today's matter, we have committed a capital crime, I am afraid that the official family will definitely retaliate in the future, and now I have to ask the official family to abdicate to show sincerity. ”

Xiao Ming said angrily: "I have long seen that you want to gain an inch, just now I said that you want to kill the thief, and now you want to force Your Majesty to abdicate, you want to make trouble for your own glory, right?" ”

Liu Zhengyan said: "Lord Xiao's words are wrong, Your Majesty can make every effort to resist the enemy, and we will serve as courtiers, but in order to keep his position and make peace with the Jin State, it is just that the two saints will never return to the Central Plains, and now the land of the Central Plains has been lost, and the lives of the people are miserable, Lord Xiao, a capable person like you who resisted gold has also been dismissed, is such an official still worthy of being in power?" ”

Liu Zhengyan's words are very reasonable, Zhao Gou listened upstairs in a cold sweat, Xiao Ming glanced at Zhao Gou, Gaozong bowed his head and did not dare to face it, and at this time, there was a chaotic coaxing of people being surrounded by people coming in, it was the left minister Zhu Shengfei arrived, Zhu Shengfei knelt downstairs, saying that it was too late to save the car, and asked the rebels to let His Majesty go and not to do anything disobedient again.

Gaozong was in a dilemma upstairs, and the Miao Liu rebels did not retreat, but were waiting for Gaozong's reply, so Zhao Gou said: "Zhu Aiqing can talk to the two generals, if the conditions are not too harsh, the widow will be allowed to play!" ”

But this matter obviously can not be stopped, Miao Fu and others asked Long You to listen to the government and negotiate peace with the Jin State, Gaozong had to agree, and issued an edict to ask the Empress Dowager Long You to listen to the government, Miao and Liu refused to bow down when they heard the edict, and further asked Gaozong to abdicate, and set up the three-year-old crown prince Zhao Yang as the emperor, Zhang Kui also quoted Mencius "the people are precious, the community is secondary, and the king is light", requiring that today's affairs should be focused on the people of the community, and said that there is a precedent of Song Huizong.

At this time, Xiao Ming discussed with Zhao Gou the strategy of retreating, he knew that the Tiger Guard Regiment must have been hindered, if it continued in such a stalemate, it would inevitably make the rebels' emotions out of control, and it would be bad at that time, so he told Zhao Gou to agree to everything for the time being, and then reason after the rebels retreated, Zhao Gou had to agree.

Gaozong's close ministers were all talking about it, and Li Bing, the squire of the military department, had already begun to scold Miao Liu upstairs, which made Zhang Kui angry below, and shot up with an arrow with a bow, Xiao Ming saw that the situation was out of control, and pulled Li Bing aside, and at the same time gave the order to shoot Guo Shouxin behind him.

Xiao Ming said again: "Your Majesty has agreed to your request, and is going to invite the Queen Mother to come, and if you still want to use force, it is clear that it is a rebellion, and in the future, everyone will be punished by the rebellious ministers and thieves, give me fifty steps back!" ”

The rebels were forced by Xiao Ming's momentum to really retreat fifty steps, and soon, the Empress Dowager Longyou came, unwilling to go upstairs, hoping to go directly out of the city to appease the rebels, all the officials thought that this move was dangerous, worried that the rebels would hold the Empress Dowager hostage, Zhu Shengfei alone excluded the public opinion, indicating that the rebels would not dare to do so, but could see their intentions. So the Queen Mother went out of the city in a sedan chair, and Miao and Liu bowed down and said: "The people are innocent, and the lives are miserable, and I hope the Queen Mother will come out to stabilize the situation." ”

The Empress Dowager was unable to make a decision, but at this time, Gaozong ordered Zhu Shengfei to announce the conditions for the abdication to Miao Fu, first, to treat Gaozong who gave up the throne like Song Huizong who took the throne, and the offerings needed to be rich; the second is that after abdicating the throne, things should be handled by the queen mother and the young monarch who ascended the throne; the third is to return to the camp with the troops after the edict is completed; Fourth, restrain the sergeants and refrain from looting, arson, or harassing the people.

Miao Fu agreed, and Gaozong immediately issued an edict to abdicate the throne, and ordered Li Bing, a squire in the military department, to draft an edict, saying that "since his accession to the throne, the strong enemy bullying has come because of himself, and he can't bear to be miserable, so he announced his abdication, hoping that the enemy country can truce and reconcile." Gaozong sent Zhu Shengfei to go down to the city to read the edict, but the rebels accompanied the Queen Mother and Zhu Shengfei.

Everyone just breathed a sigh of relief, but they saw a team of people in the distance rushing over murderously, and Gaozong grabbed Xiao Ming and said, "It's over!" The lonely family has to die here today! ”

Xiao Ming said: "No, it's my guard who is here, now we will leave immediately, rush to Qishuyan to take the train to Hangzhou, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan can't catch up with us even if they have soldiers!" ”

Zhao Gou said: "But I have already issued an edict to abdicate!" ”

Xiao Ming said: "What kind of abdication, it's just an expedient measure, with me, naturally your throne is extremely secure!" ”

Zhao Gou was grateful, but he was very worried that after he ran away, Zhu Shengfei and Empress Dowager Long You would be harmed, Xiao Ming told him that after Miao Liu and the others found out that he had escaped, they were likely to panic, and Zhu Shengfei and the Empress Dowager would become their hostages, so their safety would be guaranteed for the time being.

Without further ado, the rebels outside King Qian's mansion had dispersed, celebrating the victory in the streets, and some people shouted: "The world is peaceful!" The tiger guards quickly formed a defensive formation in front of the Qianwang Mansion, and then waited for the carriage and horses to pick up Gaozong and Xiao Ming and others, many ministers who accompanied the left and right also wanted to follow, but some ministers thought that Gaozong had abdicated, and it was appropriate to follow him.

Because of theirs, Xiao Ming didn't have time to waste time with them, and took the tiger guards to escort the carriage and horses out of Jinling City quickly, and all the troops and soldiers who dared to stop them on the road were shot down, and they didn't talk nonsense, they rushed straight out, and went all the way south from Jinling City to Qishuyan Station in Changshu.

When Miao and Liu learned the news that Gaozong and Zhao Gou had run away, they sent someone to chase after them, it was too late, Xiao Ming and Zhao Gou had already taken the train to Hangzhou, and the new locomotive used to test and roll the road was extremely fast, the coal in the boiler was red, and the front of the locomotive was spewing huge steam and galloping quickly, and it had arrived in Hangzhou in the evening of the same day.

After Gaozong arrived in Hangzhou, everything was handed over to Xiao Ming to preside, and Xiao Ming ordered Kang Yunzhi, the governor of Hangzhou, and Liu Hongdao, the governor of Mingzhou, to lead the army to the king of Qin, and went north to lead the troops with Yan Qi, the governor of Suzhou, to prevent Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan from attacking Hangzhou, and then passed on the king of Qinwang in the name of Gaozong.

When the news reached Pingjiang, Yangzhou, Zhenjiang and other places, Zhang Jun, Lu Yihao, Liu Guangshi and others were shocked at first, and when they learned the details of the matter, they immediately raised troops to fight the thieves! Xiao Ming learned that Han Shizhong, who was in Yangzhou, had exactly two regiments of tiger divisions, and immediately ordered Han Shizhong to go south first and go straight to Jinling City, Jiangning.

At this time, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan forced the Empress Dowager Longyou to issue an edict, announcing that Gaozong voluntarily abdicated in the world, and passed the throne to his youngest son Zhao Yang to change the name of the year to Ming, and the Empress Dowager Longyou listened to the government and granted amnesty to the world, and at the same time belittled Zhang Jun, Lu Yihao and Liu Guangshi and others, but the four responded!

At this time, Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan panicked, discussing whether to lead their troops south to conquer Hangzhou, but at this time, Han Shizhong's headquarters was already very close to Jiangning Jinling! The Tiger Division of the Guards was all infantry, and the long-distance attack was very tiring, so Han Shizhong ordered the Guangzheng chariots and horses to hurry up at night and arrive at Jinling City after the third day.

After waiting for two days, he joined Liu Guangshi who came in advance, and then Zhang Junyu and Lu Yihao also led a large army to come, Miao and Liu reprimanded everyone for rebellion, and encouraged the national soldiers and horses to Qin Wang, but Han Shizhong's first time The cannon sound of the guards interrupted the good dream of the two, and Miao and Liu, who wanted to use Jiankang City to block the enemy, fled in embarrassment.

Miao Fu asked Miao Yi and Ma Rouji to lead the army forward, Zhang Kui and Wang Junfu and Wang Shixiu and others sent troops to Jiangning, and he was ready to flee to Wuxi with Liu Zhengyan, and Zhang Jun's Wang Heng defeated Miao Yi and Ma Rouji, Liu Guangshi also defeated Zhang Kui's department, and everyone retreated towards Wuxi.

Han Shizhong led the army to break through Jinling City, all the rebels surrendered, and then he chased south non-stop, and the Suzhou line happened to have Kang Yunzhi and Liu Hongdao and others were blocking them, Miao and Liu were all arrested, and his subordinates Wang Junfu, Ma Rouji, and Zhang Kui all became prisoners, Han Shizhong tied these people up and brought them to Hangzhou together, so that the entire mutiny was eliminated.

Xiao Ming took this opportunity to start the process of acting on behalf of the Son of Heaven, and monopolized the power, and finally began the process of controlling the government of the Great Song Dynasty, and Gaozong Zhao Gou had to acquiesce, he knew that without Xiao Ming there would be no throne for him, and he was now going to recuperate well in Hangzhou to heal his wounded soul......
