King of Song

Chapter 697

Di Yong, in appearance, was the most beautiful man in Bianjing back then.

Not only is he handsome and unrestrained, but he is also from a good background. His father Di Qingguan was a privy envoy, a famous general in the Song Dynasty, and his posthumous title was Wuxiang.

After becoming an adult, she married Princess Qinghe and became a relative of the emperor, a proper winner in life.

Di Yong's personal resume is also good. In the early years, he fought against the Xixia people in the Gyeongju area and made a lot of military exploits.

Since Zhao Xu ascended the throne, he returned to Bianjing and stayed in the court all the time.

Due to the relationship with Princess Qinghe, Di Yong is regarded as an absolute confidant, and Zhao Xu's family trusts him very much.

Even at this critical juncture, Gao Taotao still trusts him a lot. On the basis of the Suwei court, he also handed over half of the city defense army in Bianjing to him.

Originally, all the city defenses were in the hands of Guo Kui, but a reminder from Zhao Hao made Gao Taotao make adjustments.

If Guo Kui had a bad idea, wouldn't the consequences be disastrous?

After much deliberation, out of balance considerations, Di Yong was allowed to participate.

In this way, if all the troops in the inner and outer cities were handed over to Di Yong, it would be enough to show his trust in him.

Di Yong is a loyal person and also a person who understands right and wrong.

This situation is very embarrassing. As an excellent general, he can clearly see a trend. Bianjing will not last long, and it will be a matter of time before King Qin breaks the city.

The Empress Dowager trusted herself so much, and she was also a close relative of his wife, so logically she should fight with all her might to repay her kindness.

But Di Yong was thinking again, is it really right to do this?Judging from the current situation, Da Song has encountered a series of bad situations, and King Qin has dealt with it very well. Perhaps King Qin is more suitable to lead Da Song out of the current predicament.

Such infighting is not right now, and Di Yong also thinks that the problem lies in Bianjing City, but because of his position, he can't say a lot of things, or even think about it.

Di Yong's heart was so stalemate, he didn't know how to deal with himself for a while, and he was absent-minded when he went home.

Princess Qinghe naturally knew what it was for. Although she had a close relationship with Zhao Zongshi and Gao Taotao, she was not that kind of foolish and loyal person.It's true that she is the princess of the Zhao Song royal family, but now he is the daughter-in-law of the Di family. She is married and obeys her husband. No matter what choice her husband makes, she will spare no effort to support her.

But she won't say a word until her husband makes a decision.

But at this moment, someone came to visit. Princess Qinghe wanted to stop him, but saw that the visitor was holding the Di family's iconic token - the golden mask.Princess Qinghe is naturally not easy to stop, thinking that maybe the deceased father-in-law Di Qing stayed behind, and the visitor must have a great connection with the Di family.

An old man wearing a bamboo hat entered the gate. Princess Qinghe looked at the back of this man with a feeling of familiarity.But where I saw it, I can't tell.

Di Yong was also very surprised, if this person hadn't held a special token of the Di family and came with his father's golden mask, he would never have met him.

"Who is your honor? Why is there a mask of my father?" Di Yong asked straight to the point.

The visitor did not beat around the bush, and immediately took off his bamboo hat, and a familiar face appeared in front of Di Yong.Although there are traces left by the vicissitudes of time, it can still be seen that the handsome and handsome face of the year is so similar to himself.Especially the traces of the gold seal on the face are still clear.

Di Yong looked at the person with a face full of disbelief, and after a long time trembling all over, he said softly, "Father, is it you?"

"child!"

The familiar voice came to his ears, and Di Yong's face was full of horror and can't die, then tears welled up in his eyes, and there was a kind of uncontrollable joy.The joy that my father, who had passed away for many years, suddenly reappeared in the world cannot be expressed in words.

"Father, haven't you already..."

After the joy, more doubts emerged in Di Yong's heart. His father, who had been dead for many years, suddenly came back to life.It was a bit surprising to suddenly appear at this critical moment.

Di Qing smiled and said, "Isn't he already dead?"

"Father, what happened back then?" Di Yong had already understood that his father's death was probably faked back then, and there might be many hidden secrets and unavoidable things in it.

"That's right, my father suspended his death back then, and it was a last resort!" Di Qing said, "You were still young at that time, so I couldn't tell you some things. In fact, the reason why my father was relegated to Chenzhou was because In addition to being framed by some villains, it is actually a play for my father and Emperor Renzong."

"Acting?" Di Yong was very surprised. At that time, he was not very old. He saw that the father of the official privy envoy was looked down upon and besieged by the civil officials because he was a military man. He even framed them for treasonous acts. .For this reason, Di Yong was very dissatisfied, and the many years of resentment became a pain in his heart.

To be honest, Di Yong actually blamed Emperor Renzong a little in his heart. He was thinking in his heart, why would a sage emperor treat such a loyal and loyal minister like his father?Is it the master of high power?Although this is the emperor's usual method, Di Yong still finds it difficult to accept and resents him.

This kind of resentment cannot be uttered, and no one dares to blame Sheng Tianzi.Di Yong's emotions have continued to this day, and have been transferred to Qin Wang Zhao Zhao.To some extent, among his many worries and hesitation, there is such an unknown reason.

But today, his father personally told him that this was a play. So, for so many years, he has misunderstood Emperor Renzong?

Di Qing said: "Yes, even the feigned death in Chenzhou for my father was for the sake of acting, and the purpose was precisely for..."

"for what?"

"To find His Royal Highness King Qin!"

"Ah?" Di Yong was astonished, and after a long time, he asked softly in doubt: "So, the recognition of the ancestors by His Royal Highness King Qin was arranged by the father alone?"

On that day when Emperor Renzong offered sacrifices, Zhao Zhao suddenly appeared to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, which was really surprising.Gao Taotao, Zhao Xu and others also suspected that the reason why Zhao Zhao was able to return to the royal family was definitely not something he could accomplish by himself.Perhaps there is a special force behind Zhao Zhao, and Di Yong also participated in the investigation.

It's a pity that the other party's whereabouts are very deep, and there is no clue at all, so he has no choice but to give up in the end.Now I finally figured out that this person turned out to be his father.Di Yong understood instantly, and the shock in his heart was beyond words.

Di Qing didn't deny it either, and said, "That's right, after searching for my father for 20 years, I finally found His Royal Highness King Qin. What's even more gratifying is that His Highness's talents and character are commendable. He can be called a generation of heroes. This is me. Great Song blessing."

"Then why didn't father come to see my son earlier? At least let my son know that you are still alive, so that father and son will not be separated for more than 20 years." Di Yong's saddest thing is here, he has a feeling of being abandoned, For more than [-] years, my father never contacted me and never reunited.

Di Qing also sighed a long time as a doctor, and said leisurely: "Why don't you think about being a father? How happy is the daughter-in-law around her knees, family happiness! But with such an important task for the father, how can there be any carelessness? Emperor Renzong entrusted his only blood As a father, you should do your best.

In the early years, I was afraid that if you knew about it, you would leak it and affect your search.Later, I found His Royal Highness Qin Wang, and I was afraid that you would make things difficult, so I never told you about this matter..."

"Father is right, but you... come to the door to take a look, and meet my son..." Di Yong broke down in tears, with joy and regret.

Di Qing raised his head and looked out of the window, tried his best to restrain himself, and tried not to let the tears flow down. After a long time, he whispered: "Actually, my father has come outside the mansion many times, watching your family be harmonious and beautiful, happy and happy. Very happy..."

"Father is finally willing to set foot today?" Di Yong looked at Di Qing and said quietly: "Father is here today to be a lobbyist for King Qin?"

"Yes!" Di Qing admitted generously, and then said: "It is also to save your life, and to save the lives of many soldiers and Bianjing people."

"Did my father want me to betray?" Di Yong said, "I remember my father taught me to be loyal since I was a child."

"That's right, but loyalty is not foolish loyalty, and it needs to be based on righteousness. You should know the current situation in Song Dynasty and how to solve it to be loyal to Song Dynasty." Di Qing said: "His Royal Highness Qin does not want to embarrass you and my father and son too much. ...and I don't want you to make any mistakes."

"Hmph...His Royal Highness is so sure?" Di Yong seemed a little unconvinced.

Di Qing said: "Security is inevitable. In fact, if you want to break the city, you can do it at any time. But His Highness King Qin is sympathetic to the people and soldiers in the city, and he didn't want to cause any extra harm, so he let me come here for my father. If it is unnecessary, I will do it for my father." I won’t say much, and I won’t advise you how to choose, but just remind you, how to choose is up to you to decide.”

After speaking, Di Qing got up and left!Some things just need to be reminded or slapped in the face, and let him figure out how to solve it by himself, so that he can think more clearly and make the most correct decision.

When she was born, she saw Princess Qinghe standing at the door, and Di Qing smiled and said, "The two grandchildren are very cute, thanks to the princess' hard work in raising them."

"This is the duty of a daughter-in-law, send it off to father respectfully!" Princess Qinghe's expression suddenly relaxed a lot, she was really nervous just now.It is unbelievable that father-in-law Di Qing came back from the dead.

Hearing the conversation between her husband and father-in-law, Princess Qinghe completely understood.Now how to do?Hastily rushed into the palace to inform?Still pretending not to hear, just like this...

Thinking of her father-in-law's confident eyes before leaving, Princess Qinghe was a little uneasy.

what to do?Princess Qinghe lost her mind for a while, so she could only focus on her husband.

Marry a chicken as a chicken, marry a dog as a dog, how could they cause a rift between father and son because of their own family affairs?

She can't be unfilial, let alone lose her virtue.

Princess Qinghe remained silent, just staring at Di Yong, waiting for her husband's decision!
