The first prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 364 The Real Guo Chong

Zhao Guangyi finally left. When he came, Zhao Guangyi walked slowly all the way, but when he went back, he was like a brisk bird.

Can you be unhappy? When I came here, I didn't expect to be able to take one side of power for my own use so quickly.

"My lord didn't expect that Guo Chong would be subdued so easily, isn't it a bit too childish?"

On the way back to the capital, Zhao Lin, who was riding on a horse, asked inexplicably, isn't he always cautious about such things.

"Do you think that's too much of a joke? In fact, if it was someone else, I wouldn't believe that he was so easily subdued, but this person is Guo Chong and I am Zhao Guangyi."

Zhao Lin still didn't understand, but he didn't ask, and he couldn't care less, he only knew that his foster father sent him to help Zhao Guangyi.

Why ask so many questions, just try to help him, and you don't have to ask yourself about other things.

At Guo Chong's camp, Guo Chong is now with his lieutenant general, who is also a member of his Guo family.

The two of them grew up together since childhood, and he has been following Guo Chong since then, so there is nothing to say about their relationship.

"General, why did you agree to be under Zhao Guangyi's command? You must know that the current emperor is Zhao Kuangyin, not Zhao Guangyi. Could it be that he wants to seize power, so he values ​​the military power in our hands."

"Guo Da, you don't understand. I have no choice. I have no choice. You know that I have no ambitions. I just want to guard this world honestly. This is the task Sejong entrusted to me." .”

The lieutenant was actually called Guo Da. Luckily, Zhao Xu wasn't here. If he were, I don't know if he would laugh.

"General, Sejong has passed away for so many years, and the Zhou Dynasty has been replaced by the Song Dynasty. General, why do you still stick to the mission entrusted to you by Sejong?"

"Guo Da is not allowed to talk nonsense. Taizu and I are close brothers. I promised him to protect Sejong well. Now that Sejong has passed away, I must firmly stick to my post."

Guo Chong was completely different when he faced Zhao Guangyi now, he didn't look servile at all, and now he looks like a general.

"And when the time is right, I can welcome back His Majesty, re-enthroned as emperor, and re-establish my great Zhou foundation."

"Hmph, don't they all think that I am a person without any scheming. I just want to preserve my strength. As long as there is an army in hand, we still have a chance."

"If Zhao Kuangyin really takes back my military power one day, then we really have no chance."

Guo Chong actually paid such attention, the more useless people look on the surface, it is so difficult to attract people's attention.

Then he sighed:

"It's a pity that Li Yun and Li Chongjin were too impatient. They were all good at fighting. It's a pity that they were all beheaded by Zhao Kuangyin."

"General, why didn't you agree when they came to contact you? If you acted together with them, the effect might be better."

Guo Da stood beside Guo Chong and whispered, as Guo Chong's deputy general, he naturally knew about Guo Chong.

Unexpectedly, Guo Chong smiled coldly:
"Hmph, they are overthinking their abilities and dare to challenge Zhao Kuangyin. The late emperors praised Zhao Kuangyin all the time. Moreover, they simply wanted to take advantage of the chaos to become kings and hegemons. How could I join them."

It is true that smart people live a long time. Guo Chong knows this very well and has been cautious for so many years.

"Yes, the general also understands that you have been doing the same for so many years without making friends with anyone, but why did you join King Jin this time with your body? He is the younger brother of the Great Song Emperor?"

Guo Da has known how Guo Chong did it for so many years, but he didn't expect that Guo Chong would become Jin Wang Zhao Guangyi's subordinate today.

"You don't know about Guo Da. That Zhao Lin used words to test me and wanted me to join King Jin, but he always felt that this Zhao Lin didn't have any respect for King Jin. I don't know if he is Who? They must also be thinking about usurping power."

"Since the general knows that you know that they have no good intentions, why do you still do this? It's not good for us. I really don't understand."

Guo Da really didn't understand the purpose of Guo Chong's doing this. Even if Zhao Guangyi had power in the future, he couldn't watch Guo Chong grow bigger.

"Guo Da, do you think I really follow Zhao Guangyi sincerely? A person like him is worthy. When I was a general, even Zhao Kuangyin was a pawn when I was a general. Why should they?"

"It's just that they are holding the jade pendant of the young emperor. This jade pendant was given by the Taizu to the young emperor who was just born at that time. I was there at that time. I will never admit it wrong."

"Now this jade pendant is in your hands. I don't know how they got it. I don't know if they threatened the young emperor. I don't know why I temporarily agreed to their request."

Guo Da now understands why Guo Chong, who has always been unafraid of life and death, behaved so strangely these days.

It turns out that here, if there is anything in this world that can worry Guo Chong, it is the young emperor who has now been moved to Xijing.

"General, are you worried that they will harm the young emperor? You don't have to worry about this. Zhao Kuangyin once decreed in front of the officials to always treat the young emperor and his descendants kindly. The world has long known."

What Guo Da said is not unreasonable. Zhao Kuangyin is also a person who cannot break his promise to the world, otherwise his emperor will not be able to sit still.

"No, you have to send someone to Xijing to investigate the situation and see how the young emperor's life is now. Be careful not to be discovered by others. Go."

Although Zhao Kuangyin couldn't do anything to him, Guo Chong was still worried that he couldn't guarantee that his subordinates would act to please him.

So I ordered Guo Da to send someone to Xijing to investigate and see how many old ministers are still loyal to Zhou.

Emperor Sejong's ministers will soon take back our Da Zhou's country, and the situation of separatist regimes since the Five Dynasties cannot be abolished.

The power held by these generals in the court, is everyone loyal to Zhao Kuangyin, can they not be tempted to face the throne?

Guo Chong waited for the world to be in chaos again, and he took advantage of the chaos to restore the country of the Great Zhou.

Guo Chong not only deceived the emperor but also the people of the world. Few people saw the real Guo Chong.

Such a person is really scary, and he has endured it for so many years, but a piece of news made him feel like a thunderbolt:

Zhao Kuangyin took back all the military power of the generals in the court!
