Chapter 245: Saving the Holy Driver Zhao Kuangyin Recognizes His Son
The previous document said that the martial saint Yu He told Zhanyuan about his life experience, and said that he entered the inner courtyard of the palace and wanted to find his father and recognize his relatives, but he didn't know the path, and he happened to see a man in black entering the palace to do wrong, so he followed behind this person.
It is said in the book that this man in black is not an ordinary person, but the head of the eight famous swords of the Tuhun Valley in the Western Regions -- the "Night Owl Man Demon" Batu! This man has a great reputation in the Western Regions, and he also has some fame in the Central Plains. This time, someone spent a lot of money to hire him to come to the capital to assassinate the king, and he came to Zhao Kuangyin, the king of Song.
But don't look at Batu's ability to be good, it's a pity that he is too much worse than Yu He, Yu He followed all the way behind him, and he didn't react. Just relied on the palace map provided by the person who hired him during the day to go all the way, and found Zhao Kuangyin's outside the palace.
At this time, it was summer, and Batu went all the way to the top of the palace hall, leaning on the wall and poking his head out to look down. Yu He stopped less than a battle behind him and followed the direction he was looking at. Don't look close, but Yu Hegongju still sees it really.
And he saw that the windows of the dormitory were open, and the people inside could be seen through the windows. There is an old man sitting on the top of the seat, with a resolute face, who is reading the folds with candles. Don't look at it at this time, it's getting late, but there is still a big stack of copywriting on the old man's desk, and it seems that he won't be able to sleep for another hour of busy work. Yu Hekan secretly sighed in his heart, who said that it would be good to be an emperor? Looking at his father who is the emperor, how can he be as happy as a man of the rivers and lakes.
Yu Hezheng sighed, and saw Batu take out something from his arms, don't look very far away, but with Yu He's eyesight, he can still clearly see that the man in black took out a delicate hand crossbow! This hand crossbow is only the size of two palms, and the tip of the crossbow arrow in front of it is exposed, glowing with blue light. Yu He can see that this crossbow arrow is also quenched with poison! If you let the kid shoot the arrow, I am afraid that my emperor father will be more than lucky!
Thinking of this, Yu He broke off a glazed tile from the eaves. Qing secretly used the internal skills in his hands, and threw it at the overlord when he was round.
Batu was also unlucky, just put the crossbow in his hand, and he was about to shoot before he could shoot, and he heard the bad wind behind his ears. As soon as I turned around, it was too late to hide! The tile was pasted on the boy's face, and he only heard a crisp sound of "pop", and this person fell off the house with a bang.
This sound was not small, and it also alarmed the guards and soldiers in the palace. Seven or eight guards with knives rushed out from all directions, and each drew his blade to surround Batu. Even Zhao Kuangyin in the house was alarmed, the emperor stopped his pen, strode to the door, and when he saw a black man outside, he frowned, pointed to the guard next to him and said: "Come on, take this bold fanatic down to me!"
Although Batu made Yu He's face covered with blood from a tile, it was all skin trauma, and it didn't hurt the root. At this time, when he saw that he was exposed, he quickly pulled out his weapon from behind. This kid's weapon is quite terrifying, it is two meteor hammers! These two meteor hammers are picked up, and there is no water within a radius of one zhang! Where are the opponents of those forbidden army soldiers around, seven or eight soldiers go up, that is, three or four faces, let Batu hammer one by one, and they will all be reimbursed!
The head of the guards beside Zhao Kuangyin frowned, glanced at several emperor guards around him, nodded and shouted: "Up, take him down for me!"
The six guards next to him also pulled out their weapons, these people are all disciples of the upper three sects, and they are also first-class kung fu players in the rivers and lakes. "Hula" was surrounded by Batu. But these six people went up to fight, that is, it took less than twenty rounds, so that Batu also overturned three pairs!
The leader of the guards was in a hurry, pulled out the sword he was carrying, and rushed towards Batu. To say that this guard leader really has two hits, and he has fought with Batu for more than 30 rounds without winning or losing. But Batu was much more powerful than him after all, taking advantage of a flaw in the leader of the guards, he shook from the top and kicked him from the bottom, and kicked on his hips.
With this kick, Batu kicked the crotch of the head of the guard, and he couldn't get up on the ground on the spot. Batu sneered a few times, and rushed towards Zhao Kuangyin at the gate of the main hall. Zhao Kuangyin didn't look scared and nervous at all, but asked in an awe-inspiring manner: "Who are you?
"Looking for death?" Batu sneered: "Haha...... Zhao Kuangyin, your guards are dead at this time, and you are left alone, you still have the courage to say that I am looking for death?"
"Assassinating the king and killing the driver is a capital crime, what are you not looking for death?" Zhao Kuangyin looked at this hegemony and said coldly: "As for the guard's death...... Do you think I really need the protection of the guards?" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and took down a spear from the weapon rack next to the main hall, and the body of the spear shook, and three spear flowers shook out of the tip of the spear!
Batu looked at Zhao Kuangyin and laughed: "Oh, look at what it means, do you want to do something with me? Then I will fulfill you, a faint king!" As he spoke, the chain hammer in his hand smashed at Zhao Kuangyin.
To say that Zhao Kuangyin's martial arts are not bad, judging from his own ability to create Taizu Changquan, he can be regarded as a generation of martial arts masters. Therefore, Shang is extremely confident in his martial arts! Seeing Zhao Kuangyin shake the spear again, he was distracted by this overlord and stabbed.
Speaking of which, if Zhao Kuangyin is twenty years younger, it will be difficult to distinguish the winner from the winner for a while and a half. But now Zhao Kuangyin is fifty years old, and from the perspective of foreign family skills, his physical fitness has begun to decline. Especially at this time, Zhao Kuangyin has been the emperor for sixteen years, and it was not when he was a general, so his martial arts also fell.
Zhao Kuangyin reluctantly fought with Batu for more than a dozen rounds, but one was not careful, and the barrel of the gun entangled Batu's chain hammer. He wanted to pull it back, but he couldn't move anywhere. Let the family Batu exert himself, and he swept away the big gun in his hand! Now Zhao Kuangyin is unlucky, there is no gun in his hand, where is the opponent of Batu!
Seeing that Zhao Kuangyin was about to be poisoned by Batu, he saw a figure next to him suddenly arrive, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he grabbed the iron chain of Batu's chain hammer. Batu seems to be making trouble, and it doesn't matter who Yu He is, rushing to Yu He and flying is a kick, and the two of them are fighting together.
Batu's guards who beat Zhao Kuangyin just now listened to it very well, but compared to Yu Heyi, it was a heaven and an underground. Don't look at Yu He was only in his early twenties that year, but his ability is that ordinary swordsmen can't compare. Yu He didn't use the blue-blooded mandarin duck sword behind his back, he just used his empty hands to force Batu to retreat. There were only more than thirty faces, and Yu He grabbed the chain hammer of Batu, and with a lot of effort in his hand, he was stunned to break the chain of this hammer!
Batu was frightened at the time, turned around and wanted to leave. How could Yu He let him go, he caught up with him and flew out seven or eight feet away with a palm, and died on the spot.
Zhao Kuangyin was stupid when he watched it from the side, but he didn't expect that the assassin who was extremely vicious just now would be killed in an instant. hurriedly stepped forward to ask Yu He, and Yu He quickly took out the token given to him by his mother from his arms and handed it to Zhao Kuangyin. Zhao Kuangyin looked at this token, tears welled up, grabbed Yu He's hand, and cried bitterly!
That's it, Zhao Kuangyin recognized Yu He. But he didn't dare to directly reveal his identity to Yu He, because after all, he was an illegitimate son of twenty years, and according to his age, Yu He was still his eldest son! From the royal point of view, this was a major matter related to the position of the prince, and Zhao Kuangyin had to be cautious.
So Zhao Kuangyin did not give Yu He the status of the prince for the time being, but temporarily named him the head of the guards, and he could walk in and out of the palace at will. Yu He didn't care about the status of the prince, let alone inherit the emperor's position. Therefore, he didn't go to his heart, and he really became the head of the guards in the palace.
He doesn't go to his heart, but it doesn't mean that Zhao Kuangyin doesn't go to his heart. Zhao Kuangyin has always been ashamed of Jing Niang, and now that Jing Niang is gone, he wants to compensate for this guilt on Yu He. However, due to the royal face, Zhao Kuangyin did not dare to make decisions on his own, but called his younger brother Zhao Guangyi, the king of Jin, to discuss.
Zhao Guangyi, who was later Song Taizong, was also surprised when he heard his brother say such a thing. Hurry up and let Zhao Kuangyin suppress Yu He's matter, don't expose it for the time being, and wait for a suitable time to give Yu He a peaceful prince. Zhao Kuangyin also nodded in agreement.
In this way, Yu He stayed in the palace for half a year, and the only people who knew his identity were the Zhao Kuangyin brothers and the then Queen Song. What the brothers of the Zhao family wanted was to give Yu He a position as a prince in the future, but Queen Song had more thoughts. She is bent on letting her son, Zhao Defang, who is only four years old, succeed to the throne. But firstly, there was a former queen's son Zhao Dezhao, and secondly, Zhao Kuangyin set up a "Golden Kui Alliance" in front of the Empress Dowager Du and promised to pass the throne to his younger brother Zhao Guangyi, the king of Jin. Therefore, her idea has always been only an idea, but now the appearance of Yu He has given her a glimmer of hope.
Empress Song took advantage of Zhao Kuangyin's cold to persuade him to make an edict for the prince, and then handed over this edict to Yu He for protection. When Zhao Kuangyin died, the edict was read out due to He, and Yu He's life experience was written on it. By reading out the merits of the edict, the new emperor can take advantage of the situation to recognize this royal brother and canonize him to the throne!
These words really moved Zhao Kuangyin's heart, so Zhao Kuangyin wrote an edict in the East Palace of Empress Song. However, the content of this edict was not allowed to be read by anyone. Zhao Kuangyin carefully put away the edict and sealed it with a brocade box, which is called too harmonious, and he was righteous to him, and let him take care of the edict of the brocade box. On the day of his death, he took out the edict and read it, and Yu He also agreed.
It is said that this matter should be extremely secretive, but I didn't expect that there is no impermeable wall in the world! This matter was known to Zhao Guangyi, the king of Jin. Zhao Guangyi had long been ambitious and quite emperor, and Naha Tu was hired by him to assassinate his brother. Now that I heard that Zhao Kuangyin wrote an edict, I was even more nervous, for fear that the throne would fall into the hands of others.
Therefore, Zhao Guangyi set up a poison plan! First, he hired a large number of people from the rivers and lakes to enter Beijing and secretly infiltrate the imperial palace. He also entered the inner courtyard of the palace on the night of midnight in October of the ninth year of Kaibao! This will lead to the famous mystery in history - the sound of candle shadow axe!
If you want to know what will happen next, let's see the next time.
