Chapter 13: The Great Chu World
Three days later, the Daqing Palace.
After retiring from the dynasty on this day, Zhao You only left a few of his uncles behind.
The civil and military officials walked outside one after another, and Zhao Yanchun, the prince of Taishi, looked around very vigilantly, and saw a column of fifteen soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army standing in two rows on the left and right, a total of three columns.
Everyone is on standby, as if they are waiting for the Holy Decree to be done at any moment.
Zhao Yanchun hurriedly glanced at Zhao Yanjin, who was also the historian of the Zuo Xuan Hall.
I saw that the expression on Zhao Yanjin's face was also very nervous.
In addition to the two of them, the remaining two people had also sensed that something was wrong at this time, but after all, this matter had nothing to do with the two of them, so it didn't matter.
Zhao You stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhao Yanchun, and said in a pretended thick voice: "Uncle Huang, do you know why I left a few of you alone?" ”
Zhao Yanchun hurriedly bowed and said, "Then I naturally don't know." ”
Zhao You smiled mysteriously and nodded, "I don't know, do you?" Don't blame me. ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Yanting immediately knelt on one knee and said urgently: "Weichen...... What did Weichen do wrong, please make it clear to Your Majesty, please don't be angry! ”
Zhao Youlang said: "Since the "Xianning Change" happened, my Great Chu has suffered an unprecedented catastrophe, and the three saints were taken to the far north by the Xia people, and all the people of the Zhao royal family were reduced to prisoners overnight. ”
"This matter has been a pimple in my Great Chu until now, the Xia Kingdom will not be extinguished for a day, and my Great Chu soldiers and civilians will not be able to live in peace for a day!"
The "three saints" referred to in Zhao You's mouth are Chu Zhaozong, Chu Ningzong, and Chu Xuanzong of Northern Chu thirty years ago.
These three are all models of succession to the throne for brothers and brothers, and they are of the same age, and the three brothers have stepped on their shoulders all the way.
Mediocrity is also the same mediocrity, which directly led to the Xia State raising troops to attack Chu in the south, and the Chu State was destroyed overnight.
Because the state of Chu was in the reign of Xuanzong Xianning at that time, the state of Chu called this catastrophe "Xianning Change".
After the Xianning Rebellion, the state of Chu had almost completely declared its demise, and for a long time the Central Plains was devastated, and the Zhao royal family was in danger, and it had become a symbolic regime in the standard sense.
In order to continue the power of the Zhao royal family in the Central Plains, the remaining civil and military ministers of the Chu State worked hard to find the only survivor from the chaos.
That person is the second person in the history of Chu in addition to the founding emperor - Zhao Deji of Chu Jizong.
Zhao Deji overrode public opinion, and when the Great Chu River and Mountain of the Zhao royal family completely collapsed, he ascended the throne in the northern territory of the original Northern Chu, so that the Great Chu River and Mountain could continue.
Soon after, because of the second army of the Xia State to the south, Zhao Deji was forced to completely abandon the northern cities that had been lost, and led the ministers to flee to the south, and fled three times in a row, and finally fled to this place called Wan'an City.
Taking Wan'an City as the location of the Great Chu regime, I originally did not think of using Wan'an City as the capital of Great Chu after that.
However, he didn't think that until Zhao Deji died, the military and economic development centers of Dachu were all concentrated in this area that had been used for many years and was only regarded as a place by the civil and military ministers of Dachu, Wan'an City, which would become the capital of Dachu after completely recognizing the reality and being in a corner of peace.
As the founding emperor of Southern Chu, Zhao Deji of Chu Jizong is of great significance to everyone in Chu State, and his imperial title was taken by Zhao You himself.
Zhao Deji was frugal all his life, and Nanchu's imperial palace in Wan'an City had a total of more than a dozen decent halls, and 80% of the treasury was used for military expenses every year.
In the end, there were many brave and good fighters, and they always talked about the Northern Expedition, but unfortunately they never succeeded.
This is really a big thing to regret.
Although it is quite fatal, after all, to be a human being, you must recognize the reality, if you live by your dreams all day long, it is better not to live this day.
After Emperor Jizong Zhao Deji returned to heaven, Zhao You, as his only son, naturally became the emperor and became the second emperor of Southern Chu.
The secret that Zhao You is a daughter comes from this.
Emperor Jizong has no children in this life, and he only has a daughter like Zhao You, anyway, no matter what he thinks, it seems that this emperor has no way for Zhao You to inherit it.
But once Zhao You is not inherited, this great Chu Jiangshan can only be sat by outsiders, based on this, when Zhao You was still waiting to be fed, Emperor Jizong raised Zhao You as a son.
In order to hide people's eyes and ears to the maximum, Emperor Jizong can be said to have thought of all the methods he can think of, the purpose is to let others not know that this so-called heir to the throne is actually a woman.
Over the years, Zhao You has been imperceptibly accustomed to this kind of life when he was born as a daughter, but he lives as a man.
Except for some important physical characteristics that he tried his best to hide, Zhao You really lived as a man.
How did the ancestral foundation of Da Chu continue back then, I believe that no one in this world knows better than Zhao You.
It is true that in the end of the Jizong Dynasty, the Northern Expedition was never successful, and the three emperors who were imprisoned in the far north Xia State were not welcomed back, but Emperor Jizong had already tried his best to fulfill his responsibilities and obligations as the royal family of the Great Chu Zhao clan.
I believe that from this point of view, no matter how later generations comment on the Jizong Dynasty of Southern Chu, they have to admit that from the perspective of the descendants of the Zhao royal family, Zhao Deji is a quite competent and qualified emperor.
When Zhao Deji returned to heaven, Zhao You cried for three months, and she couldn't accept the fact that her father was dead.
It's as if no one in this world will realize that the heroic father who has always stood up to the sky will eventually grow old.
It's as if an important thing in this world that no one cares about will eventually be destroyed.
In any case, from that day on, Zhao You made a vow that he would not inherit his father's will in this life, and would not achieve the recovery of his homeland, and he would regret his death!
In any case, the Great Chu River must be expanded to the scale before the Xianning Change.
No matter what the reason is, even if the Three Sages have died in the Xia Kingdom a long time ago, even if they are burned to ashes, Zhao You must replace Emperor Jizong Zhao Deji and bring back this ash.
At this time, Zhao You gritted his teeth and stared at Zhao Yanchun and the others, and roared angrily: "I am the son of Great Chu, and it is impossible for a thief to make waves in my Great Chu!" No one will be tolerated! ”
