Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"It's nothing, it's nothing." Defang sighed, "Later, the army entered the capital, and the people were not disturbed at all. The Taizu brought a few generals into the inner palace of the Hou Zhou Dynasty, and Emperor Zhou Gong and the Empress Dowager ordered the Zen seat. The ancestor emperor created today's Song Dynasty without bloodshed."

Weiling hugged Defang and said, "Father, is this the one who wins the hearts of the people and wins the world?"

"Yes, the one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world." Defang nodded, "Emperor Taizu fought bravely, ruled the army strictly, treated people generously on weekdays, and distinguished between public and private. Several of the founding heroes of the Song Dynasty were all sworn brothers of Emperor Taizu, so they were awarded The support of the subjects quickly established the foundation of the Song Dynasty."

Concubine Di also said, "Ling'er, your great-grandfather is a true hero in troubled times. He defeated countless mighty generals with his own fist and stick. The Great Song Dynasty was established with one death, the army entered the city, and the people were not disturbed at all. They all wished to regard Taizu as the emperor sincerely. After not many years, they unified the land of the Central Plains and completely quelled the chaos of the Five Dynasties for decades. This is unprecedented in ancient times. Things."

Wei Ling nodded, "Father, Queen Mother, Emperor Taizu is Ling'er's grandfather, His Majesty is also Ling'er's grandfather, Ling'er's father, queen mother and queen are Baxian King and Empress Di, Linger is the most blessed."

"Hehehe" Defang hugged Weiling and kissed her forehead, "Yes, the little princess is the happiest."

"Father" Wei Ling looked at De Fang, "And then?"

"Then?" Defang blinked, obviously forgot what she was going to say, Weiling turned to look at Concubine Di, "Queen Mother, look at your father."

"Good." Concubine Di patted Weiling's head, "My lord, why do you forget while you're talking?"

"Forgot? Forgot what?"

Concubine Di sighed, "Ling'er, mother, go back and ask the national hand to prescribe a prescription, and then make soup for your father, and it will be fine when you drink it."

"Ma'am, what kind of medicine and soup? I'm not sick."

"Drinking soup won't cure the disease." Concubine Di stretched out her hand to touch Defang's forehead, "replenishing the brain."

Defang looked up at Concubine Di's hand, "Ma'am, what did I forget?"

"My lord, what do you want to tell Ling'er?"

"What are you talking about? Talking about Emperor Taizu..." Defang finally realized, "Yes, yes, yes, I really didn't talk about it."

"Father, you forget too quickly."

"Yes, yes, the king really wants to drink the soup made by your mother when he returns home, hehehe"

"Father, what does Grandpa Taizu bring the army back to Beijing and have anything to do with Baerban?"

"It has a lot to do with it," Defang said, "Emperor Taizu was supported by all the soldiers to lead the army back to Beijing. Under the leadership of the officers, the city gate was closed to resist the entry of the three armies."

"Why?"

"Because they are loyal people, they only know that there is the Emperor of the Later Zhou Dynasty in their hearts, and it is their duty to guard the city gate, so they led the soldiers to resist the city gate. The vanguard troops notified the matter to Emperor Taizu. The ancestor decided to enter the city through the North Gate, so the army bypassed the Chenqiao Gate and entered from the north of the city. The two officers heard that the army had entered the city, so they gave up resisting, but they hanged themselves together. Taizu didn't know this until after he ascended the throne. Incidentally, after asking each other, I found out that the two officers were named Lu Fengliang and Qiao Zuochen. At that time, they led the troops to close the Chenqiao gate. After giving up resistance, they hanged themselves together. Emperor Taizu lamented that they were Loyalty boys, they buried them generously, and rewarded their children generously, and ordered the Ministry of Industry to build a Loyalty Temple for them in the city, and changed the name of Dahouban to Boyerban."
