King of Song

Chapter 606 Chapter [-]

Burying into the earth for peace is an ancient tradition, and the mausoleum of Emperor Renzong must not be touched lightly.

Lin Zhao had an indirect way of proving it. A dozen people appeared immediately after a greeting.

"Among these people are the former governors of Jiangning Mansion, servants, Li Zheng and other relevant figures. There are also the population registration documents of Jiangning Mansion back then, and He Wu and I, who were aliased as Gu Qi, signed a contract with the Meng family in Jiangning. Servant employment contract." Lin Zhaolang said, "The date on it is December of the second year of Huangyou, and I was only four months old at that time."

"That's right, it was winter, and there were snowflakes in the sky. The old lady of the Meng family rescued a man and a baby." The local Li Zheng said: "You need to sign a contract to buy a servant, let alone two refugees from the north. , There is no test for household registration. I took them to the government office to apply for household registration and register the contract."

"Yes, we have some impressions!"

"Lin Zhao, I take the liberty to say that after so many years, they may not remember clearly, and there is also the possibility of false testimony, so..."

"What Prince Pu said is that people may tell lies, but black and white letters can't be fake, right?" Lin Zhaodao: "For these documents and papers, the prince can choose experienced people from the book editors in the pavilions, and ask them to appraise them. Is it a document from that year, or was it forged afterwards?"

The result is self-evident, the yellowed paper, old ink marks, and the seal of Jiangning Mansion can be concluded to be more than 20 years ago.

"The above record is very clear. The officials of the Jiangning Mansion and Huangyou met me at the end of the second year. The concubine mother was exiled in a fire in the palace in July that year. Even if she gave birth immediately after leaving the palace, she was pregnant again. Can time regenerate a child?" Lin Zhao's rhetorical question left Zhao Zongcheng speechless.

Cao said with a smile: "Based on time, Dongyang is indeed the son of Emperor Renzong and Concubine Lin!"

"Having said that, there may not be many coincidences, and they cannot directly prove their blood relationship. The heirs of the royal family must be cautious, and please forgive the empress dowager!" Zhao Zongcheng insisted that even if the indirect evidence was sufficient and perfect, he would not admit it.

Zhao Fukang smiled, stepped forward and said: "Brother Wang, according to the current situation, it is basically not bad. If there is one or two more points of blood genetic evidence, can it be concluded?"

"That's right!"

"Then it's easy to handle!" Zhao Fukang smiled, and said to the officials in a loud voice: "This princess is a woman, so I shouldn't talk too much. But when it comes to my father's blood, this princess, as the elder sister, should not talk too much." have this responsibility and obligation."

"Princess Dachang's words are reasonable!" The veterans of the Renzong period immediately agreed.

"That's good!" Zhao Fukang said: "This princess believes that Lin Zhao is of the blood of the father. As for the evidence...Fukang has been bold, please forgive me. Two sisters, Lu Guo and Yan Guo, please come here and remove your left foot." shoes and socks!"

Where did this come from?The three eldest princesses took off their shoes and socks in public?The situation is a bit bizarre.

Zhao Xu is also baffled, he doesn't know what kind of tricks his aunt is playing, everything today looks like a farce.

Gao Taotao suddenly remembered something, he was shocked, and hurriedly said: "Sister Fukang, the Taimiao is a holy place, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to take off your shoes and socks, not to mention that the three sisters are all women, it's about fame!"

"The emperor's sister-in-law is worrying too much. This is to verify the royal blood. Even if there is a little disrespect, I believe the ancestors will forgive me. As for the festival..." Zhao Fukang shook his head and said: "Family affection is more important than fame! "

While speaking, the three living eldest princesses and the only three surviving daughters of Emperor Renzong all took off their left shoes and socks.The officials at the front could see clearly that the three eldest princesses had six toes on their left feet.

Cao said: "Emperor Zhenzong and Emperor Renzong both have six toes on their feet. This was originally a royal taboo, but today in order to verify the royal blood, we have to make it public." He picked up a few volumes of documents and continued: "This is from the imperial medical office. Record the file to prove this!"

"The emperor and father have it, and so do the three princesses and sisters!" Zhao Fukang said: "It can be seen that the six toes are passed down from generation to generation. For the current plan, we only need to look at Dongyang's left foot. It will be clear!"

Very dramatic scene!
The ministers were astonished, but at the same time fully believed that the Imperial Medical Office had exact records.The six toes are deformed, and ordinary people have to hide them, let alone the emperor, they have to avoid them, and it is completely reasonable that they have not announced them to the public.What's more, there are three eldest princesses, and the biological mothers of the three are not the same person, so it can only be seen that they are inherited from their fathers.

Ever since, everyone's eyes subconsciously fell on Lin Zhao's left foot.

Cao said: "Dongyang, remove the shoes and socks, and let the clansmen and ministers take a look!"

"Yes!" Lin Zhaoliang stretched out his left foot and couldn't help feeling funny when he saw the extra toe.At the beginning of rebirth, I was very angry, but I didn't expect it to become the key evidence at this moment.

Baiguan's eyes were wide open and he could see clearly, so he couldn't be wrong now.All the evidence came together flawlessly.

The last trace of luck in Zhao Xu's heart was also shattered, and the facts cannot be changed!

"More than that!" Zhao Fukang greeted, and the four beautiful and beautiful wives of the Lin family walked from among the officials with four children in their arms.All four babies have bare left feet, and the symptoms of six toes are very obvious.

"Isn't there something wrong with that?" Mrs. Cao smiled slightly, very relieved, then turned around and said, "Prince Pu, Zong Zhengqing, should we be able to recognize it now?"

"Okay!" Zhao Zongcheng could only nod his head, even though he tried his best, he couldn't stop it in the end!He really wanted to say, why did Zhenzong and Renzong have six toes, but they, who are both descendants of Taizong, didn't? (His father, Zhao Yunrang, was the son of Zhao Yuanfen, king of Shang, and the son of Emperor Taizong with Song Zhenzong)

But after all, he still didn't say it out loud. On such an occasion, he absolutely did not dare to question the blood of Zhenzong.Lin Zhao's return to the royal family is already an inevitable trend that cannot be changed.

"Okay, then there will be Lao Zongzhengqing, and the four princes and four grandsons (daughters) will be entered into the clan!" Cao Shi gave an order, walked to the front of the stage, and said loudly: "From now on, the prince and the grandson will restore the Zhao surname." !"

From this moment on, Lin Zhao changed his name to Zhao Zhao!

Both Gao Taotao and Zhao Xu felt a strong sense of powerlessness in their hearts, and now the matter is a certainty.A powerful enemy has appeared, and there will be no peace from now on.

"O late emperor, your son has been found, and your spirit in heaven can rest in peace!" Cao knelt down in the Taimiao, weeping and reporting.

The prince who has been living abroad for 24 years finally returns to the royal family!

"Come, Zhao'er, pay homage to your father and ancestors!" Cao's family had made up their minds, and today they will do it in one step, and directly ask Lin Zhao Taimiao to sacrifice and recognize their ancestors to return to their ancestors, so as to avoid any further changes.

"Yes!"

Under the guidance of the ceremonial officer, Zhao Zhao sacrificed as a prince. The four children were still young, and their mother held them in their arms to salute.

After offering sacrifices to the ancestors, the Cao family said again: "Now come to pay your respects to your sister-in-law and several sister-in-law!"

"Meet the emperor's wife!" Lin Zhao walked in front of Gao Taotao, with a triumphant smile on his lips, and bowed to salute.

Gao Taotao's face was pale, and even though he was mentally prepared, his body still couldn't help trembling at this moment.When they met for the first time, she could clearly feel the confidence emanating from Lin Zhao, as well as a kind of powerful power, which almost made her breathless.She also realized for the first time that Zhao Zhao is scary...

"Well, the emperor's return is really a blessing to the Song Dynasty!" Gao Tao said duplicity, on the surface he was still the gentle and gentle queen mother.

Later, Lin Zhao visited the three imperial sisters. Zhao Fukang was familiar with them, but the eldest princesses of Lu and Yan were pleasantly surprised.Immediately afterwards, several important royal relatives including Zhao Zongsheng had a symbolic salute.

Only then did Mrs. Cao smile meaningfully, turned around to look at brothers Zhao Xu and Zhao Hao, and said in a deep voice, "Should you also come to see the emperor's uncle?"

Although they are similar in age, Zhao Zhao is the son of Emperor Renzong and the same generation as Song Yingzong.Although Zhao Hao and Zhao Baoan were very reluctant, they did not dare to disobey in front of all the officials in the Taimiao, so they had to obediently salute.Zhao Hao was a little restless, and Zhao Zhao could clearly feel his dissatisfaction and anger.

The trouble is Zhao Xu, he is the emperor and rules the world.Even if Lin Zhao is older than him, he will not bow his head.

However, the Cao family was displeased and said: "Although the official family is not an emperor, it is right to perform the rituals of the emperor and ministers. But today's Taimiao sacrifice is my royal family sacrifice, and family rituals cannot be abolished!"

Both Gao Taotao and Zhao Xu were shocked, and all the officials were also sensational.The meaning of the empress dowager is very clear, this is to ask the officials to bow their heads to Zhao Zhao!The meaning is really intriguing!

"No, although Zhao Zhao is the emperor's uncle, there is a difference between the emperor and his ministers. How can there be a saying that a king salutes his ministers?" Seeing this situation, Lu Huiqing immediately came out to object without hesitation.

"Family and country are one, national rituals are followed by family rituals!"

Lu Huiqing insisted: "The Son of Heaven has no personal affairs, and no family affairs. He can only perform state rituals. There is no such thing as family rituals?"

"Who are you? It's just arrogance and nonsense!"

Zhao Xu was a little happy just now, and was very satisfied with Lu Huiqing's thoughtfulness, and was about to take this opportunity to force himself down.As a result, the Empress Dowager was furious: "The Son of Heaven is an example for the world, and he should pay more attention to family affection and be cautious about etiquette. When the emperor visits me and the Empress Dowager, there are only national etiquettes but no family etiquette?

Emperor Renzong advocated filial piety and propriety to rule the world. In his early years, he saw the Hanlin bachelors teaching in the East Palace.If this is the case with teachers and students, isn't it possible between uncles and nephews? "

The Cao family honored the empress dowager, and even raised Emperor Renzong as a precedent. Who dares to refute?How to refute?
"This……"

Lu Huiqing was at a loss for words for a while, and Zhao Fukang took the opportunity to say: "In the past, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty once visited the emperor's uncle Liu Bei, and said: Today's worship is not the emperor's worship of his ministers, but his nephew's worship of his uncle. There are precedents as early as the Han Dynasty. Family property imitates..."

Anger rose in Zhao Xu's heart, and he finally understood that Cao and Zhao Fukang tried their best to make him bow his head to Lin Zhao, and the purpose was self-evident.

"Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty is the king of subjugation, how can he be compared with the officials?" Lu Huiqing didn't rush to think about it, and retorted after grasping a point.

Zhao Fukang sneered and said: "It is true that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was the king of subjugation. It can only be said that he made mistakes in his administration, but his act of benevolence and filial piety was not at fault. Instead, it is worthy of praise. At the same time, it is also to thank Liu Bei for his feats in fighting the national traitor Cao Cao.

In this battle of the Northwest, Zhao Zhao personally led the army to recover the lost land, opened up the territory for the Song Dynasty, and made outstanding contributions.In terms of emotion and reason, this worship seems to be indispensable! "
