The rise of the late Song Dynasty reigns supreme

Chapter 252 Am I a Faint King?
After Zhao Huan discussed with everyone, he decided to let Jiang Huzhong take action, and all these arrangements were made by Zhao Huan's people.As a prince, how could Zhao Huan have no dark power.It's just that his people are hidden very deeply, and he will never use it unless it is absolutely necessary.

Now that the situation is special, Zhao Huan also had to dispatch dark forces.Just in case, five first-class and first-class masters were dispatched at once. Their skills are much stronger than Ouchi's guards, and they all exist as one against ten.

After Gao Qiu and the others left, everything was carried out in secret; if the people sent out had any mistakes, they would not confess their instigation.Prince Zhao Huan ordered to go down and must complete the task.In addition, he sent another archer to follow, and a total of six people started the operation.

Zhao Gou personally reported Li Bangyan's crimes. When Song Huizong heard about it, Long Yan was furious, and followed Zhao Gou's footsteps to meet those teenagers in a hurry.Just in case, Zhao Gou sent people to guard the outside and secretly sent them to the palace. Even if he was really daring, he would not dare to act presumptuously in the palace.

Song Huizong met those teenagers in person, and learned the truth from those teenagers, which was exactly the same as what Zhao Gou said.It's not that Zhao Ji doesn't trust Zhao Gou's words, but that Li Bangyan has been with him for many years, won his trust, and never doubted his loyalty.

Now, Zhao Gou told Li Bangyan that he was not loyal and harbored evil intentions, which made it difficult for him to accept for a while, and he was very disappointed.Song Huizong asked himself that he had a clear conscience for Li Bangyan, but he didn't want him to treat him like this. The anger in his heart can be imagined.

When Song Huizong saw the injuries of those teenagers, especially the fear and helplessness in their eyes, he was furious.He directly ordered Zhao Gou to escort Li Bangyan here, instead of waiting for the court meeting to interrogate him, he had to personally interrogate him why he did this.

After the precedent of Zhu Xie, Tong Guan continued to subdue the law, and another Li Bangyan appeared. The most abominable thing was that Li Bangyan was actually someone close to him and betrayed himself, which made Song Huizong feel so embarrassed.Even knowing the outcome of the matter, Zhao Ji was still unwilling, and whispered sadly: "Why do they treat me like this!... I ask myself that I treat them well, why do I do this?..."

Zhao Gou didn't speak, Zhao Yougong was also silent, the two of them didn't know how to answer, so they had to shut up.Originally, Zhao Yougong was staying in the Palace of the Prince of Chu, but Zhao Gou sent someone to invite him over; Zhao Yougong looked at Zhao Gou inexplicably, and whispered a few words in his ear before he knew the reason, and stayed in the palace all the time. I'm back home.

"Do you think I was too incompetent before?"

Zhao Ji was exhausted, the radiance on his face disappeared, and all that was left was sadness. At this moment, he understood the pain in Zhao Si's heart, and he was indeed tired.But he is not Zhao Si, so he can't be at ease; the huge Song Dynasty still needs him to sit in charge, and he has to persevere no matter how tired he is.

Zhao Gou and Zhao Yougong quickly raised their heads and looked at him in surprise, dumbfounded, they didn't expect the emperor to ask such a question, both of them were stunned.Zhao Ji glanced at Zhao Yougong, and asked in a low voice: "Yougong, you answer, am I too incompetent?"

Zhao Yougong's heart tightened, and he replied sincerely: "In the hearts of my ministers, the emperor will always be the ninety-five-year-old respected man, but they have never understood the painstaking efforts of the emperor. If the people of the world know the painstaking efforts of the emperor, they will also be loyal!"

Zhao Ji stared at Zhao Yougong in a daze, without saying a word, turned his head to look at Zhao Gou, and said, "Gou'er, answer it!"

"Do you really want to answer?" Zhao Gou said in embarrassment.

"This is an imperial decree!" Zhao Ji said solemnly, "But it's okay to say, I forgive you for your innocence!"

Zhao Gou replied truthfully: "As my cousin said, my father is wise and wise, and he is a real upright person. However, in the face of national crisis, love is a last resort; however, treacherous people took advantage of the loopholes, filled their pockets and took bribes. profit from it."

"This is a man-made disaster, not the fault of the father. In the eyes of the sons and ministers, the father is a tolerant king and a virtuous king, so he is not a faint king! If the father takes the crimes committed by the treacherous sycophants on himself, it is a crime." It is not a wise move to make an imperial edict, these people deserve to die, and only by sweeping them all together can the government be reorganized and the people have enough food and clothing!"

Zhao Yougong was deeply touched by Zhao Gou's words. If he didn't know Zhao Ji's deeds towards Song Dynasty, he would also think that he was a faint king, otherwise he would not have forced the palace.Afterwards, Zhao Xi told Zhao Yougong everything about Zhao Ji in detail, and Zhao Yougong also had to admire that he could endure what ordinary people couldn't.

Not only Zhao Yougong thought so, but also Zhao Gou.According to historical records, Song Huizong was indeed a fatuous and incompetent person.Although he is a literary talent, he is only a history expert of later generations. Even Zhao Gou himself thinks that Song Huizong is fatuous and ineffective. However, he discovered through personal experience that Zhao Ji had a lot of helplessness.

Song Huizong had too much helplessness. Some things were beyond his control. As the emperor, he had many things beyond his control.Zhao Gou understood, and Zhao Yougong also understood, so what he said was from the bottom of his heart, without the slightest compliment.

"Qi Zou the emperor, the gang of thieves came to the rescue and now they are surrounded!"

Song Huizong asked in surprise, "Same party?"

Zhao Gou met Song Huizong's gaze, bowed and said, "Report to Emperor Father, in fact, this is a trick to get out of the hole with a snake!"

"Lead the snake out of the hole?" Song Huizong asked in a low voice.

Zhao Gou and Song Huizong explained the ins and outs of this incident in detail. It turned out that this was Zhao Gou's strategy in order to lead out the people behind the scenes.As both Zhao Gou and Zhao Ji knew who Li Bangyan was loyal to, they did not dare to act rashly without evidence, and Zhao Ji was unwilling to take any action, so this kind of trick was to set a trap, and then take action when the evidence is conclusive.

Zhao Yougong didn't know the plan of the matter, if he didn't come in a hurry and didn't know the truth of the matter, everything was arranged by Zhao Gou alone.Li Bangyan who escorted the prison was himself. Zhao Gou knew that he could not act rashly under the current situation, so he used this strategy.

As expected, someone went to assassinate Li Bangyan. Zhao Gou had already arranged everything in order to knock the mountain and shake the tiger.This is what Zhao Gou and Zhao Yougong were talking about in a low voice, and Zhao Yougong immediately ordered people to go to the prison to defend, and then there was such a scene.

"How's the situation?" Zhao Gou said in a deep voice.

The man replied: "This..."

Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Zhao Gou frowned and asked, "Could it be something unexpected?"

The man replied guiltily, "He's dead!"

"What?" Zhao Gou was taken aback and wondered, "What's going on?"

"Originally, when they appeared, we had already surrounded them. Unexpectedly, one of the enemies was an archer. He shot him with an arrow in his hand, and finally let us fall short. These people must have been carefully cultivated in my opinion. slain."

The man recalled the previous scene, frowned, and bowed back: "At that time, we had already caught these people, but we didn't expect that these people had poisonous sacs in their mouths. The final result was beyond everyone's expectations. Yichen's respect for these people Observe, I'm afraid these people are not good stubble, and those who come are not good!"

Zhao Gou heard that Li Bangyan's death was not dissatisfied, nodded calmly, and said lightly: "Understood, you go down!"
