Qiming 1158

Chapter 1136 Zhao Tan is having dinner

The tragedy of Sanyi Huihe, Yu Yunwen, is of course relatively clear.

The Song government still has statistics on how many people died at that time, and they know a rough figure, but they have always kept it a secret, and no one has taken the initiative to mention it.

Once the Yellow River bursts, how many people will be killed and injured, others do not know, but Yu Yunwen, a senior bureaucrat, still knows.

Even so, for now, he really couldn't think of a better way.

"I can't do anything either. As long as the army strives for a bit of energy and does not seek victory, even if it is just to defend the city and prevent the Ming army from advancing in, I will not resort to this."

Yu Yunwen closed his eyes and said sadly: "But after more than ten years of truce, the army of the Song Dynasty has really collapsed to the point of irreversibility. , has been corrupted to the extreme.

Tingxiu, you don't know, when I went to inspect the army, I was shocked by what it looked like, not training, gathering together to fight horses, gambling, drinking, weapons not maintained, all rusted, bows and crossbows piled on one side, all It's a spider web, and even the armor is rusted.

Can such an army fight?Can it be won?Obviously not, so rebuilding still takes time, but Ming will not just watch us reorganize the army, I have no other way except this way..."

Yang Wanli let out a long sigh.

"You always like to treat the problem as your own problem. If you can trust other people more, maybe there will be other better ways."

"What's the solution then?"

Yu Yunwen stared at Yang Wanli.

Yang Wanli pursed his lips, not knowing what to say.

He has no choice.

Seeing that Yang Wanli stopped talking, Yu Yunwen smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"I can't help it? Well, don't talk about these things anymore. This is the end of the matter. I don't want to worry about it anymore. If I can handle it this time, everything will be better.

Yu Yunwen once again strengthened his faith, never admit defeat, never give up.

Later, when night fell, Yu Yunwen and Yang Wanli were discussing the next tactics, a messenger dressed as a forbidden army came to the city wall and conveyed the emperor's summoning order to Yu Yunwen, saying that the emperor summoned Yu Yunwen to discuss the matter of fighting against the Ming army.

Yu Yunwen nodded and looked at Yang Wanli.

"It seems that the officials are as worried as I am. There may be something else that needs to be discussed with me. You can help me keep an eye on it here, and I will go."

"it is good."

Yang Wanli temporarily took over this task.

He followed the soldiers of the Imperial Army who had come to greet him and headed towards the palace. When he arrived at the gate of the palace, he handed over his weapons as usual, accepted a body search, and then straightened his clothes and stepped into the palace.

Searching and searching, Yu Yunwen felt something was wrong.

The custodial soldier in charge of searching himself looked nervous, as if he was doing something important.

"Why are you so nervous? Didn't you see me on the first day of duty?"

"Yes... Yes, the villain has been ill before, this is the first time on duty..."

"Oh."

Yu Yunwen thought about how to analyze the current situation with the emperor and what to do in the future.

During this period of time, when he entered the palace, he was just like going home.

After the body search was over, Yu Yunwen was allowed to enter the palace. He quickly entered the palace, thinking that he would return to the city wall as soon as possible and continue to reorganize the army.

The war is going to start tomorrow, and he has to seize every opportunity to do everything he can to prevent accidents.

As a result, after entering the palace, he hadn't walked a few steps when a few strong-bodied soldiers of the Imperial Guard jumped out of nowhere, pushed Yu Yunwen to the ground, and quickly controlled his limbs to prevent him from moving. .

One of the soldiers quickly put a piece of cloth into his mouth to prevent him from calling. The others took out ropes and tied Yu Yunwen tightly.

Yu Yunwen was knocked down before he had time to react. He was stunned, and he gagged his mouth and couldn't make a sound. Then his limbs were tied up, and he completely lost his ability to move.

Only then did he react, twisting his body desperately, and then making a whimpering sound, the whole person was like an earthworm struggling under the scorching sun.

He stopped doing it soon, and on the one hand he was really tired, on the other hand he saw a few faces he knew.

Shen Kai, Zhou Linzhi, and... Zhang Jun's son, Zhang Shi.

them……

What to do
Why tie yourself up?

Is this a coup?
Seeing Yu Yunwen's terrified expression, Zhang Shi smiled contentedly.

"Yu Xianggong, didn't expect it? You always look down on the literati who are helpless, but the ones who make you throw yourself into the trap are also us literati who are helpless."

Yu Yunwen was gagged and couldn't speak. It was just because of grief and anger that he made a whimpering sound, which looked very funny.

Shen Qi laughed coldly.

"Okay, Jingfu, don't continue to waste time here, take him, let's go to the emperor's palace."

The emperor's bedroom?

What are they going to do?
Yu Yunwen twisted his body hard and stared at Shen Gai with wide eyes.

"Want to know what we're going to do?"

Zhang Shi leaned in front of Yu Yunwen and said with a smile: "We are going to the emperor's bedroom to ask the emperor to abdicate, abdicate to make a worthy man, and then support a worthy new monarch. Under the order of the new monarch, sign a peace treaty with the Ming Kingdom to end the war and maintain the Great Song Dynasty. surviving."

Yu Yunwen's pupils shrank, and he was greatly horrified, and immediately began to twist his body, making a sound of anxiety.

Shen Gai's face froze.

"Commander Zhang wants a living person, but he didn't say that injuries are not allowed, beat him!"

Shen Kai was also disgusted by Yu Yunwen. Thinking of the past when he was scolded by Yu Yunwen, now the new hatred and the old hatred are counted together. Seeing Yu Yunwen being punched and kicked by the strong soldiers of the Imperial Army, he was immediately relieved.

Seeing Yu Yunwen being punched and kicked, Zhou Linzhi, who had worked with him a little bit, couldn't stand it, and said in a low voice, "Okay? These Qiu Ba's hands are not serious, and it's not good to kill people if they really want to kill Xiang Ming. Citizens explain."

Shen Gai glanced at Yu Yunwen and said, "Okay, pick it up and keep walking."

Yu Yunwen was beaten and kicked so badly that he couldn't think normally because of the pain all over his body. He didn't react for a while. After his body got used to the pain, he found that he had been carried outside Zhao Tan's palace.

A deep panic and despair swept through his heart.

He realized that this was a palace coup, a sudden palace coup initiated by Shen Gai and Zhou Linzhi, and the participants were probably the imperial guards who were responsible for the defense of the palace.

And he, already under their control, has nothing to do with this palace coup.

And what is very scary is that he has no idea what the purpose of the coup was.

Is it against him, or against the emperor himself, or the entire Song Dynasty?
Could it be that Shen should have surrendered to the enemy?

Is this a cohesive action?

The entire Song Dynasty is about to be sold by them?

A group of eunuchs who served in the palace were arrested by the soldiers who participated in the coup d’etat at the palace, and those who shouted and tried to resist were hacked to death on the spot. Many eunuchs and palace maids splattered blood on the spot, so frightened other eunuchs and palace maids quickly stopped moving and knelt down honestly. The ground did not dare to say a word, only dared to cry quietly.

When Shen Gai and Zhou Linzhi acted, Zhao Tan didn't notice the palace coup.

He is having dinner.
