Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 446 Zhao Gou's Passivity

In the west of Jeju, several camps recommended by the Song army were smoked from cooking camps, obviously they were burying pots for cooking. This is the soldiers and horses of King Qin of the Generalissimo's Mansion.

However, Zhao Gou hid in the post house to enjoy the blessings. He was born in a royal family with rich clothes and fine food, and the pain of marching and exhaustion still made him look bitter, and he still sat next to the brazier.

"Your Majesty, several armies from Hebei and Jingdong have been contacted, and they will join you in the east of Gyeonggi." Zhang Qiyuan put down Guantang, his eyes flashed solemnly.

Zhao Gou was very satisfied. The more soldiers and horses gathered around him, the greater his right to speak.To be honest, even though there were only a few guards who responded, it was enough to make him feel relieved. The Zhao family has been in trouble these years, and it would be good if someone could respond, and there should be no extravagant expectations.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong." Zhang Qiyuan felt that Zhao Gou should be reminded that Kaifeng had fallen, and King Kang was the only one in Taizong's lineage. There were too few guards who responded, and it didn't even meet his lowest prediction.

Zhao Gou shook his head and said with a smile: "The guards all over the world are waiting and watching. It's understandable. Zichu doesn't need to be too nervous. Everything will be clear when he enters Kaifeng."

Zhang Qiyuan smacked his lips, glanced at Wang Boyan and Geng Nanzhong, and said, "I hope so, there are not many news from Kaifeng, but it seems that Wang Wenshi is very strong, I'm afraid..."

"King Qin, save me! It's not like you don't know, Wang Wenshi is still knowledgeable, so what if he takes the credit and pride, could it be that he dares to threaten the minister?" Zhao Gou looked disdainful, he was still full of confidence in his ancestor's testimonies, Wang Wenshi Xiu dared to kill Zhe Yanzhi, it was in a time of crisis, he led the army into Kaifeng under the pretext of keeping the whole army Qin Wang, could it be that Wang Xiu dared to be against him?It's obviously impossible, and you even have to pay him more respect. You think the Zhao family's generous treatment of scholars is a waste of effort!

"Your Majesty's words are right. Wang Wenshi's foothold is not stable, and he is still afraid of the government and opposition scholars, but he is used to making dangerous moves in the army. Your Majesty must guard against them." Zhang Qiyuan knew Wang Xiu well, and what he said was pretty much the same.

Just as Zhao Gou was about to speak, a garrison officer hurried in and said, "Your Majesty, the court envoys have arrived outside."

Zhao Gou was slightly taken aback, looking at Wang Boyan who was beside him, but saw Wang Boyan shaking his head with a puzzled look on his face.

Geng Nanzhong rolled his eyes and said: "Kaifeng is surrounded by captives like an iron bucket. How can an imperial emissary go out of the city? Your Majesty, be careful that the captives are deceitful." His position is quite embarrassing, Zhao Gou seems to have a deep prejudice against him, Very unpopular, not even a staff officer.However, he had nowhere to go, so he could only hold back his breath, put on his old face and stick to his cold ass, hoping to make Zhao Gou look at him differently, at least to resolve his prejudice.

Wang Boyan thought about it for a while, and said vigilantly: "How many people are accompanying the imperial envoy, are there any taboos for self-registration?"

"Responding to my lord's words, there are more than [-] people. The imperial envoy said that Jian Guo was enthroned, and the imperial court reached an agreement with the captives. They came to the Grand Marshal's mansion to pass the decree. They called themselves Zhang Quan, the enshrined official of Neixitou."

"Prince enthroned, Zhang Quan?" Zhao Gou's complexion changed, his gaze was a little erratic, and he turned to Geng Nanzhong, feeling a mess in his heart.

Geng Nanzhong smacked his lips, and said awkwardly: "That's right, Zhang Quan is the Old Yellow Gate of the East Palace in the old days, the residence of the saint."

"How did you come so fast?" Zhang Qiyuan thought, Jian Guo ascended the throne?He immediately realized that Wang Xiu was one step ahead, and all his previous plans were in vain.

"The envoy of the former army is coming to report, but the imperial envoy said that the matter is too urgent, so he came all the way in haste." Geng Shuguan said in a hurry.

"Then invite the imperial envoy and set up an incense case." Zhao Gou was very reluctant, but he had to make a gesture.

Zhang Quan came day and night, and Zhu Lian specifically explained that he must see King Kang as soon as possible without any delay, so he did not stop and wait, and went directly to the posthouse.Of course, on the way here, he spread the news of the new emperor's succession, and when he arrived at the destination, he basically completed the most important mission.

There was nothing new in the edict, Zhao Gou listened to it with a cold face, Zhang Qiyuan's face turned pale, it was really a waste of effort, Wang Xiu's action was really fast.

"There is also the imperial edict, please read it alone, Your Majesty." Zhang Quan looked around the crowd and said.

Geng Nanzhong rolled his eyes and slowly lowered his head. He felt very conflicted. The new king's ascension to the throne meant that Zhao Gou had no chance to be unified. Thinking about the new emperor being Zhao Huan's son, the two evils were lesser, and he seemed to have something to do .

Everyone is a minister of the imperial court, so naturally there is no need to find trouble. He had other ideas, but he was also established in the Jian Kingdom and was captured, or he has not yet enthroned and is too young, but the new emperor represents the orthodoxy of the Tian family. As the saying goes, since the end is done, everyone has changed their minds and left one after another.

Zhang Qiyuan did not leave, looked at Zhang Quan with both eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, how could there be no Su Wei by his side in this critical period."

Zhao Gou understood, and hurriedly said, "Zichu just stay here."

Zhang Quan has been in the palace since he was a child, he can be regarded as an old eunuch.Otherwise, he would not be entrusted by Zhu Lian. Zhao Gou and Zhang Qiyuan's thoughts were difficult to hide from him. He could also understand Zhao Gou's intentions, and under the dangerous situation where the situation was unknown, he was careful to sail for thousands of years. , which is not too much.

"It's unavoidable, sir, forgive me!" The other party is a servant, but he is also a servant of the emperor. He has become an adult, and he still needs to be treated with respect when he is a high-ranking servant.What's more, he came here with the emperor's order, Zhao Gou would never dare to be rude to Zhang Quan before the matter was settled, this is the face of the emperor.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your care. Compared to your Majesty who is in armor outside, what are slaves?"

After some politeness, Zhang Quan ordered Wang Xiu to raise his troops to rescue the current emperor and queen mother, and defeated the Jurchen's offensive in a row, forcing the Jurchens to negotiate a peace without touching the country, and withdraw the siege of Kaifeng.The ups and downs of the ups and downs, extremely dangerous, plus some artistic material added by himself, exaggerated it with embellishment.

Zhao Gou's expression changed constantly, and Zhang Qiyuan's expression was also serious.His eyes flickered.

However, Zhao Gou was quite satisfied with Wang Xiu's actions, although he was suspicious that Wang Xiu did not insist on welcoming the second emperor back, so he hurriedly compromised with the Jin people.But the people on Earth know very well that in a situation where people are aggressive and the Song court keeps losing points, it is already a blessing in misfortune to have such an ending, but they are somewhat depressed in their hearts.

Zhao Gou's mood became heavy, and Zhang Qiyuan's loss completely fell into Zhang Qiyuan's eyes. After Zhang Quan went down to rest, he asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, I don't know what your majesty's intentions are?"

Zhao Gou's face was very ugly, and he threw the family letter heavily on the table, and said in a deep voice: "Go to Beijing quickly, and King Qin's army will be delivered to the guards everywhere."
