Chapter 748: Alliance of the Golden Chamber

"it is good!"

The two stood side by side.

Looking at the six or seventy-eight people in Xuandemen, there are also countless people in Xuandemen.

Zhao Zhen raised his hand, and Fu Ji came over with a tray.

Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "There is paper, ink, pen and inkstone next to it. The red ink here represents me; the black ink here represents him. Whoever you support can use the corresponding ink. No need to write, just draw a circle. This way you don’t have to worry that I will follow the handwriting and cause trouble for you.”

"Do you have a different opinion on this?"

Zhao Shoulian pursed his lips.

"If you do this, you agree. Then I will stand here with you, waiting for the result."

Your Majesty is already standing, but Li Ji and the other three can't sit still.

They all stood up and stood aside waiting for the results.

Wang Gongchen, who was standing next to Gu Qingjue, was very nervous. He kept rubbing his hands and almost paced back and forth to relieve his anxiety.

Ouyang Xiu stood in the second row, looking at Wang Gongchen like this, and said: "There is nothing to be anxious about, just wait patiently."

"You are standing and talking without pain in your back. Your Majesty is so willful, how can you not worry, what if..."

"I'm talking about you Yumu, but you still don't admit it."

Ouyang Xiudao: "Your Majesty has been in power for so many years. He has solved Xixia and prevented Daliao from invading. He has carried out political reforms and military reforms. Last year, he also reduced the corvee. The people are living well now. Who doesn't want to live in peace? Blindly What are you worried about!"

"you!"

"What am I? Isn't what I said right?"

Wang Gongchen was scolded by Ouyang Xiu many times just because he was the stupidest.

If it were anyone else, Wang Gongchen would still be able to say that.

But against Ouyang Xiu, he was suppressed this time.

He actually scolded him for his stupid head.

He was the number one scholar in the scientific examination, and His Majesty gave him this name.

"Speaking of which, Emperor Taizong did indeed..."

"Hey, don't be confused. It's been seventy or eighty years since this happened. It's no longer possible to determine whether it's right or wrong."

"If it is, it is, if it is not, it is not. You can't deny it just because it's been a long time!"

Gu Qingjue was listening to the two people arguing.

Whether it was from his contact with Wang Gongchen over the years or Yi Xin's words about this person in his ears, he deserved that evaluation: honest, honest and upright.

The truth about Emperor Taizu's seizure of the throne, as Ouyang Xiu said, is no longer important.

Taking a step back, even if Wang Jien had listened to Queen Song and announced Zhao Defang to the palace, would he have been able to secure the throne?

At that time, Zhao Defang was only the defense envoy of Guizhou, with a fifth-grade official position that was not even rated by the king.

At that time, both the Central Secretary and the Privy Council were controlled by Zhao Guangyi.

Without this ability, sitting in that position is not a blessing for himself or the people of the world.

After Emperor Taizong took the throne, he was afraid of being criticized, so he re-appointed Zhao Pu as prime minister.

Who is Zhao Pu?

He was a close confidant of Emperor Taizu.

It was the greatest help for Emperor Taizu to successfully wear the yellow robe. It stands to reason that with the emperor and his courtiers, it would be good for Zhao Pu to be able to take care of himself after the death of Emperor Taizu.

Who would have thought that there would be a chance to be photographed again.

Gu Qingjue believes that the most likely possibility is that Emperor Taizu left Zhao Pu and Emperor Taizong in Kyoto when he was away on military expedition. Perhaps the two had a different friendship at that time.

In short, Zhao Pu accepted Emperor Taizong's appointment.

And presented the "Golden Chamber Alliance" to calm down the rumors that were rife at that time.

The general meaning of "Golden Chamber Alliance" is that as early as the second year of Jianlong (960 AD), Empress Dowager Yang was ill for a long time and Emperor Taizu was serving decoctions. Empress Dowager Yang urgently summoned Zhao Pu, and in front of Zhao Pu's In person, he asked Emperor Taizu how he got the throne.

Emperor Taizu said that he was protected by his ancestors, but Empress Dowager Yang said that because Zhou Shizong let his children rule the world, if the Zhou family had an elder, the position would not be occupied by Emperor Taizu, so she asked Emperor Taizu to pass the throne to Emperor Taizong a hundred years later. It is said that having an elder king in the world is the blessing of the country.

His Majesty Taizu cried and agreed to what Empress Dowager Yang said, and he would pass the throne to Emperor Taizong a hundred years later.

Emperor Taizong would pass the throne to his younger brother Zhao Tingmei a hundred years later, and then to Zhao Defang.

Empress Dowager Yang ordered Zhao Pu to write down what he said that day and hide it in the golden cabinet.

This is the Golden Chamber Alliance.

It's just that the Golden Chamber Alliance was said by Empress Dowager Yang when she was seriously ill, or was it just a pretentious thing to make Emperor Taizong sit on the throne of God and make everyone look good.

Now after so many years, no one knows what happened.

There is no need to write names, just draw circles, which is very efficient. However, the common people standing outside the selection door also want to participate. Zhao Zhen asked Zhao Shoulian what he meant.

Zhao Shoulian felt that with more people, the possibility of Zhao Zhen cheating would be smaller, so he nodded in agreement.

So, the two of them stood there motionless for nearly three hours.

Just wait for the results to come out.

After the results came out, Fudge took out the paper with red circles and the paper with black circles from the wooden box one by one in front of the two people, and counted them.

This count took another hour.

None of the officials took a sip of water. Those ministers gritted their teeth and persisted no matter how hard they dared to withdraw. Those with weak bodies looked like vegetables.

A total of nearly 2,921 people voted.

There are 2,887 people circled in red and only 34 people in black circles.

"No way, absolutely impossible."

Zhao Shoulian overturned the tray with a black circle note in front of him: "I am obviously the orthodox royal family, why don't you support me?"

Ouyang Xiu clicked his tongue twice: This man must be stunned!

At this time, some people shouted: "The officials have been very good to us. We like the officials today. Although you are of royal blood, you launched this mutiny without caring about the lives of our people."

"If you want to get the throne back, you can't do it without bloodshed and sacrifice. I'm already doing my best to reduce casualties."

At this time, Pang Ji stood up and said: "When you talk about reducing casualties, do you mean to arrest all our officials so as to threaten His Majesty? When you asked Xiang Shihong to go to the Pang family, you had such arrogance and majesty. I still remember it now.”

When Pang Ji spoke out, many people began to attack him.

Pang Ji was a military commander, so he could still resist. Many civil servants were really arrested. Fortunately, they met the Su Guards who came to support them, otherwise their lives would be really bad.

The rebels were also on their way to capture officials, and captured many people who had no time to return home.

Because there are nursing homes in the homes of all officials, it will be difficult to break through for a while, and they need hostages, so they arrest them on the road. If they are not on the road, they break into the homes of civilians and arrest people.

This scene had just ended, and they were still frightened.

How could they dare to let such a person become emperor? If he really sat on the throne, how could he care about the lives of their civilians?
