The Song Dynasty has been deliberate for 16 years, only to know that it is the Water Margin

Chapter 295
The two looked at each other when they heard the words, they didn't recognize Zhao Tun, they saw that he was young, luxuriously dressed, with an extraordinary appearance, and he was sitting in a carriage in the inner courtyard, they couldn't help feeling guilty.

The one who spoke the loudest just now smiled all over his face: "The two lower officials are talking about King Qi."

Zhao Tun squinted his eyes: "King Qi... Do you recognize King Qi? Did you see the things you said with your own eyes?"

The other said: "But I don't recognize it, and I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but the impeachment of the imperial censor can't be false, right?"

Zhao Tong said: "Who said that impeachment cannot be false? There has never been such a reason!"

The young official who spoke fiercely said: "I heard that although Qin Hui, the censor in the palace, is young, he is loyal and upright. How could he speak falsely and adulterate?"

Zhao Tong snorted coldly: "The censor's rumors and rumors, how can you take everything seriously. The king of Qi recovered Huaixi and made great contributions to the country. If you don't tell the truth from the false, spread rumors behind your back, and maliciously slander, isn't it a crime?"

He spoke fiercely again: "A merit is a merit, a demerit is a demerit, and the merits and demerits cannot be offset just because of the prince's status. By the way, you... who are you?"

At this moment, he sensed that something was wrong. Hearing the other party's bad tone, he still wanted to question the crime. He realized that since the other party was sitting in the carriage in the inner court, wouldn't he know King Qi?
"Yes, who are you?" The other one also asked, with a dissatisfied tone: "There are too many discussions behind the scenes, and we have also heard people say that King Qi is domineering and oppressing the people. Even if he is high and powerful, how can he block the world?" Great mouth!"

Zhao Tun squinted his eyes, a little regretting being reasonable with the other party, he raised his leg suddenly and kicked forward.

How could that person expect that he would actually do something, this is the Xuande Gate of the imperial city, the most heavily guarded place in Miyagi, guarded by imperial guards both inside and outside, not to mention making a move, even if you do something out of the ordinary here, you will be arrested.

What's more, when the scholar-bureaucrats ruled the world in this dynasty, even if they disagreed with each other, or had personal and public hatred, they would not beat people in public. If it was spread out, it would be insulting to politeness, and it would even make all the officials resent and dissatisfied.

Zhao Tang didn't care about that, he didn't use much force in his kick, but the opponent was a scholar and an official, how could he stand it, and immediately let out a scream of "ah", he was kicked and fell back, lying on his back. Rolling and crying on the ground.

"You, how did you hit someone?" The fierce-tongued man was dumbfounded, he had never seen this before, he was stunned for a moment and hurriedly shouted: "You hit someone, you hit someone!"

A few steps inside the Xuande Gate, there was a forbidden army, they had seen this scene a long time ago, but they all stood up straight, and no one spoke.

"Come here!" He pointed at the imperial guards fiercely, trembling all over: "Can't you see someone committing murder..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Zhao Tang slapped him and sent him flying. He fell to the ground and "coughed" twice, opening his mouth to spit out a few teeth.

Zhao Tang looked at the two people on the ground coldly: "If you dare to talk about the prince behind your back, you will not be punished like this. You two will be sent to prison for questioning."

How could the two of them dare to fight back at this moment, their guts were broken in just one blow, and they cowered on the ground, not daring to raise their heads.

At this time, many officials had already gathered around, and their jaws almost dropped when they saw this scene. Someone dared to commit murder in the Xuande Gate of the imperial city. This was simply something that had never happened since the establishment of the dynasty.

The one who knew the two people on the ground stepped forward angrily, but did not dare to speak to Zhao Tun, and shouted at the imperial guards, "Why do you guard the palace city, and you don't blame anyone for something like this!"

The imperial guards just glanced at him, and then turned away expressionlessly. Others don't recognize Zhao Tun, how could they not recognize him? Wouldn't the year's post be in vain?
Seeing that the imperial guards did not respond, the man was about to speak again, but someone behind him pulled his robe lightly. He was about to turn around and scold him, but the person behind him whispered a few words in his ear. Changed, and then hastily stepped back a few steps, never daring to speak again.

Zhao Tang glanced at these people, turned back and got into the carriage, and the carriage drove away.

At this moment, the man turned his head and said, "Brother, is it really King Qi?"

The back said humanely: "Isn't it the King of Qi, I've seen it before, it's not fake, you dare to step forward, maybe you want to be beaten?"

The man said in a low voice: "I don't know King Qi, no wonder these forbidden soldiers all pretended not to see..."

As he spoke, he glanced at the two young officials on the ground, shook his head and walked over, and sighed: "Xiang Wang, Brother Han, you two really don't know good from bad, and dare to slander in front of King Qi. I think you two officials are going to sit down!" It's over!"

After finishing speaking, the man walked into Xuande Gate with his hands behind his back, shaking his head and shaking his head.

Brother Wang Xian who was on the ground pointed at his back tremblingly, and said in a low voice, "This, these things... didn't you tell me last night, how did it become my slander!"

Zhao Tong's carriage entered Xuande Gate, and after a while, he arrived at Daqing Gate. After getting off the carriage, he looked forward.

Not far ahead is the Daqing Palace, and there are even more imperial guards on the roads on both sides, all of them are Zhu Zhi's inner court guards.

Zhao Tun walked forward with the support of the little eunuch. At this time, many officials were also going to the Daqing Hall. He was not wearing official uniform, and he was wearing a splint with one arm, which was very eye-catching.

But no one came to say hello, even if they knew each other, they all lowered their heads and pretended not to see them.

Zhao Tong sneered in his heart, ignored them, and walked directly into the Daqing Palace.

The Daqing Hall has a long and deep layout. There are several rows of lacquer tables on both sides. Under the guidance of the eunuchs, people have already started to take their seats according to their ranks and duties.
As soon as Zhao Tun entered the hall, someone came up to welcome him, but it was Zheng Fu.

"My lord, please come to the front." Zheng Fu glanced at the splint on Zhao Tong's arm, and said respectfully.

Zhao Tong nodded, and walked to the top left position, where there were three wide and long tables with different shapes.

Obviously the first one was for Prince Zhao Huan, and the other one should be for Zhao Kai.

After he sat down at the table in the middle, the voices in the hall immediately stagnated. Whether he knew him or not, he knew that King Qi had arrived at this moment.

Sensing Ruoyou Ruowu's hopeless gaze, Zhao Tuo snorted coldly, and immediately withdrew those gazes.

At this time, the sky was still bright, but candles were already lit in the hall. As the officials took their seats, the musicians and maikos of the Jiaofang Division also began to prepare.

At this moment, King Yun Zhao Kai walked into the hall surrounded by many people. He was wearing a white jade moon crown and a bright red robe with gold trim. Smile like a gentleman.

The hall was deep and long, he walked very slowly, almost all the officials on both sides didn't know him, they all got up to salute, Zhao Kai smiled and nodded.

After a while, Zhao Kai came to the front, saw Zhao Tun, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile, "I didn't expect Second Brother to arrive early."

Zhao Tang looked at him and said with a smile, "But it's not early, I just entered the door."

Zhao Kai's eyes fell on the plywood, he couldn't help but smile even more, and he sat down and said, "Second Brother, how did you get your arm, why did you come to the banquet with the injury?"

Zhao Tong sighed and said: "I was hit by a weapon during martial arts training, and I have already reported the injury to the officials, but the officials said that this celebration banquet was originally prepared for Huaixi's victory, if I don't attend, this celebration banquet will be eclipsed! "

Zhao Kai's face changed slightly when he heard this, but he laughed again: "Second brother has made great achievements in regaining Huaixi this time, suppressing rebellion and suppressing bandits, everyone in the world knows it, my younger brother admires everything."

Zhao Tong shook his head and said: "There is no one else, it's just luck." After finishing speaking, he showed a calm and lonely expression.

Seeing this, Zhao Kai couldn't help but twitched his eyes, and suddenly felt angry for no reason, what does it mean to be lucky?

Is this to deceive him that he doesn't understand battlefield military?

Wang Xiang and Deng Xunwu lost their troops and lost their generals, and they lost a lot. It can be seen that Wang Qing's bandits are definitely not ordinary bandits, they must be fierce and good at fighting.

Such a bandit army, not to mention fighting bloody battles, at least have to fight repeatedly and struggle every step of the way to win, right?
How come you, Zhao Er, are just lucky?If they were all so lucky, Da Song wouldn't have to raise so many soldiers, and wouldn't have to rely on the Western Army, it would be all about luck.

Zhao Kai took a deep breath, did he look down on him and disdain to talk about war with him?

Or did he deliberately do this to raise his status and show off his military status?
He laughed dryly: "Second brother, how can it be just luck? Second brother knows how to use soldiers well to make such a great contribution, but... Second brother is now an extremely human minister, even if he makes such a great contribution, I'm afraid there will be no promotion Rewarded."

Zhao Tong looked at him when he heard the words, and said, "A minister who serves the court and contributes to the country, how can he focus on rewards in everything?"

Zhao Kai said haha: "Second brother Gao Jie, younger brother admires him!"

Zhao Tang smiled, stretched out his hand and tapped on the table: "However, the officials said..."

Zhao Kai's expression changed when he heard the words: "What did the officials say?"

Zhao Tong said slowly: "The officials said... they want to make me king."

Move to the king?Zhao Kai was taken aback when he heard the words, what kind of king is he?Where to move?You are already King Qi, where else can you move to?

Zhao Tun suddenly lowered his body slightly, and beckoned to Zhao Kai mysteriously.

Zhao Kai was drawing his soul in his heart, seeing Zhao Tun's movements, he hurried over to him, and heard Zhao Tun whisper: "The officials said that they want to make me the King of Qin!"

ah?Zhao Kai immediately froze, what king?He didn't hear clearly, and hurriedly said: "Second brother, what are you doing?"

Zhao Tun repeated: "King Qin!"

King Qin? !Zhao Kai's expression immediately changed upon hearing this, and a "rumbling" sound exploded in his head.

What kind of king is King Qin?It is the second among the four kings. Taizong of this dynasty once granted the title of King Jin, so the King of Jin will not be crowned again, so King Qin is the biggest in this dynasty.

Although the status and salary of all single-character princes in the Song Dynasty are actually the same, there is no difference, but the size of the king's name is different, and it feels different in the hearts of the officials at the court and the common people in the market.

Even if the officials don't mention it and the law doesn't mention it, there is no doubt that he is the leader of all kings, and he is the one who overwhelms all the kings!

Zhao Kai's face turned pale in an instant, and he immediately thought of many things about King Qin.

It seems that there are quite a few Qin kings who became emperors. The most famous one is Li Shimin, the emperor of Zhenguan. How did he remember that Li Shimin was also the second?
The more Zhao Kai thought about it, the more he was wrong, he suddenly found out that many of the princes of the second line seemed to have become emperors in the end, and the titles at that time were either King Jin or King Qin.

Sui Yang Emperor Jin Wang Yang Er, Tang Wen Emperor Qin Wang Li Er, and Emperor Taizong of this dynasty...

Zhao Kai's lips trembled a little, he no longer had the elegant demeanor he had before, his body froze there, and he didn't retract it for a long time.

At this moment, Zhao Tun said leisurely: "Ah, actually, I don't want to be the king of Qin at all, but the officials have no choice but to decide, even if I refuse in every possible way, the officials still insist on moving to the king."

Hearing this, Zhao Kai's blood surged up immediately, and his head was a little dazed, he reluctantly retracted his body, and after a long time he said: "Second brother should be grateful for the kindness from the officials."

Zhao Tong shook his head and said, "I'm grateful from the bottom of my heart, but how can I be the King of Qin, third brother, tell me, what can I do to make the officials change their minds?"

Zhao Kai was a little confused for a moment: "This, this..."

Zhao Tong said: "This King Qin is the head of all the kings, and his name overwhelms all the kings. Once I move the title of King Qin, wouldn't I have to assume the responsibility of leading the kings? The third brother knows that I have always been lazy and indifferent to fame and fortune. Help me quickly." I'll think of a way to make the officials change their minds!"

Hearing this, Zhao Kai almost crushed his fist. Are you indifferent to fame and fortune?You, Zhao Er, are the most famous one!You, Zhao Er, are the most hypocritical in the world!Are you showing off?He also pretended to say that he didn't want to be the king of Qin, but he was probably already happy in his heart!
"Second brother, where do I have any ideas? If I really go to persuade the officials, wouldn't I be acting like a villain? How could I hinder my second brother's promotion path!"

Zhao Tong shook his head and said: "Third Brother, you have misunderstood me. I have long been tired of court affairs, and I am not interested in any princes. I just thought of resigning from the official position and becoming an idle prince. Playing in mountains and rivers is so free and easy, but I'm afraid that the officials will not allow it."

Zhao Kai was getting more and more angry at this moment, and he was slandering him repeatedly, but at the same time, his heart was also moved. This Zhao Er was so busy with showing off to him at the moment, but he forgot that the move to the king had not yet been issued in the court, but... look at him like this I'm so overjoyed, I'm afraid it will be announced at the celebration banquet tonight.

Since he is showing off and hypocritically saying that he doesn’t want to be the King of Qin, then I might as well give him a plan. If you don’t want to be, then I will go to the official and explain the reason why I can’t give you the king, so that your wish can be fulfilled. !

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but secretly complacent, the reason why he couldn't move to the king of Qin was really simple, as long as he took the Zhenguan Emperor Li Shimin as an example, it was enough, the Xuanwumen mutiny, killing his brother and forcing his father, isn't that enough!

Do the officials want to be the Supreme Emperor?
It’s better for the prince to release the news, the prince doesn’t want to be Li Jiancheng, does he?
Thinking of this, Zhao Kai smiled again, he hurriedly looked at Bai Kexiang in the hall, counted the time, and said: "Second brother, younger brother suddenly remembered something, I want to go to mother's place for a while."

Zhao Tun was stunned for a moment, and said: "Third brother, go and come back quickly, the celebration banquet is about to start, so don't miss it!"

Zhao Kai nodded, got up and walked forward, there is a back door in the Daqing Hall, which leads directly to the inner palace.

Seeing him leave, Zhao Tang also looked at Bai Kexiang in front of him, and after thinking for a moment, he closed his eyes slightly.

After an unknown amount of time, the bell in the hall suddenly rang, and he felt a gust of wind blowing in front of the case, and when he opened his eyes, it was Zhao Kai who came back in a hurry.

I saw him with a dark face, frowning eyebrows, a wronged and angry look, without looking at Zhao Tun, directly sat behind the case, and then gasped for breath.

Was this scolded by the officials?Zhao Tong raised his eyebrows, did Zhao Kai try to persuade the officials to change their mind?It seems that the matter of moving to King Qin is really irreversible...

Just as he was thinking, suddenly a servant in front of him sang loudly: "The official's family is here, the prince is here, be quiet and quiet!"

Then I saw Emperor Daojun in front and Zhao Huan in the back, walking into the Daqing Hall.
