The Beacon of Kyushu

Chapter 161 The traitor king conspires to rebel and usurp the great rule, and the young emperor surrenders the country ([-])

Five days later, the Chuigong Hall.

Zhao Guangyi, who was sitting on the dragon chair, had the same majesty and calmness between his brows as before.But the officials in the palace stood sparsely, and none of the famous counselors and generals showed their faces today.The hall seemed more empty than before, and the atmosphere was much cooler than before.

Zhao Guangyi looked down at the courtiers in the palace, his eyes swept over everyone's face one by one, he was slightly relieved when he saw that there was not a single famous and important minister in the palace.He ordered: "Let Qu Yue's envoy come in!"

As soon as his words fell, the head official of the palace repeated in a high-pitched voice: "The government has a decree, and the envoy of Qu Yue has an audience!" When the little eunuchs in the palace gates heard the sound, they all quickly repeated The imperial decree, like the waves of the sea, calmed down and rose again, and spread straight from the Chuigong Hall to the outside of the palace.

Soon, Wang Shaozuo and Jiang Juwang followed the young eunuchs into the main hall and came to the front of Zhao Guangyi in the middle of the main hall.Zhao Guangyi glanced at the two, nodded slightly and said, "Are the two below the steps the envoys sent by Qu Yue?"

Wang Shaozuo hurriedly made a deep salute, and said: "Wang Shaozuo, the envoy of Qu Yue, the official, has seen the official family of the Song Dynasty! May the official family last forever, and may the Song Dynasty and Qu Yue live in peace forever!"

Jiang Juwang followed Wang Shaozuo and saluted Zhao Guangyi, but from the corner of his eye he kept looking at the officials of the martial arts class, and murmured, "This is Pan Mei? No, it doesn't seem to be Cao Bin either. Huh? Why are these people different from the portraits His Majesty showed me?"

Wang Shaozuo glared at Jiang Ju, then stretched out his hand to pull his arm, and then he realized that he shut his mouth immediately.Although the movements of the two were very subtle, they did not escape Zhao Guangyi's eyes at all.

But he pretended not to be aware of it, and said: "You two, I received a report from the Privy Council a few days ago, saying that the leader of the Ding tribe passed away unfortunately, his son Ding Xuan ascended the throne as emperor, and Li Huan, the tenth general, was named deputy king. Assisting the young emperor in handling the government affairs, is this a serious matter?"

Wang Shaozuo nodded and said: "The official's news is really well-informed. The emissary came here this time to ask for a seal. I have a letter of credence here, and I hope the official has a look." He took out the letter of credence from his sleeve, and again Bow down and raise your hands above your head.

Zhao Guangyi glanced at the little eunuch beside him, and the little eunuch immediately understood and presented the letter of credence in Wang Shaozuo's hand.Zhao Guangyi took the letter of credence, read it roughly, and then said: "You two, Qu Yue has always been a vassal of my Great Song Dynasty. Now that the former emperor has died and the new emperor has ascended the throne, I have no reason not to confer the title. I will write it myself. An imperial decree has been issued to enshrine Ding Xuan as the Lord of Qu Yue and Li Huan as his Deputy."

Seeing that there was no joy in the expressions of the two of them, he thought to himself, "Could it be that Li Huan has not only taken control of Qu Yue's government, but has usurped the throne as emperor? Li Huan is very ambitious, and he will never be willing to submit to my lord for a long time." Song, if this is really the case, I must try to restrain one or two."

Zhao Guangyi thought about it, and continued: "Li Huan has great plans and strategies, and he is unwilling to be under others. If he thinks that Ding Xuan is young and incompetent, he can send Ding Xuan's mother and son to Bianliang, and I will change him to be the Lord of Quyue That's right."

Wang Shaozuo said: "Officials, this matter is so important that the envoy can't be the master. It's better to wait for the envoy to return to Quyue and report to His Majesty before making a decision."

Zhao Guangyi said: "Okay, if you two want to travel in Bianliang, I welcome you very much. If you want to return to Quyue immediately, I will never stop you!"

Wang Shaozuo said gratefully: "Thank you for the kindness of the officials, but the two of us have a mission and dare not delay. We will return to Quyue early tomorrow morning, so we can report this matter to His Majesty as soon as possible."

Zhao Guangyi waved his hand and said: "In this case, you should go to the posthouse to rest today, and I will send someone to do it for you tomorrow." Wang Shaozuo gave a deep salute when he heard the words, and then pulled him. Jiang Juwang walked out of the hall slowly.

More than ten days later, Li Huan slept in the hall.

Holding a luxurious gold wine cup, Li Huan half-lyed on the scarlet carpet beside the dragon couch, with several empty wine jars beside him.While drinking the wine, he looked at the distant sky again and again, his eyes seemed a little blurred, and sometimes showed a smug gleam.

Over the years, he has developed a habit of drinking alcohol before every battle, and he will get drunk for three days and three nights after drinking.In the eyes of everyone, Li Huan's behavior is promiscuity, debauchery, and even extravagance.Only Li Huan himself understood how many problems he could think about and how many strategies to control the enemy during these three days.He understands that only in this way can he truly maximize his abilities.

"When, when, when..."

Suddenly there was a hasty knock on the door outside the bedroom, which interrupted Li Huan's drinking and interrupted his thoughts.Li Huan's brows were subconsciously frowned, his blurred eyes suddenly became clear, and a killing intent surged in his eyes.

Facing the door, Li Huan shouted angrily: "I told you, don't disturb me for these three days, do you ignore my will?"

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, General Wang and General Jiang have returned, and now we are asking to see you outside the palace." A young eunuch's voice trembling with fear came from outside the door, as if the most ferocious beast in the world was imprisoned in this palace, even Thousands of times more terrifying than ferocious beasts.

Hearing this, Li Huan's murderous intent gradually faded, and he said coldly, "Let them in."

The little eunuch replied tremblingly: "Yes..."

Following the little eunuch's voice, Wang Shaozuo and Jiang Juwang walked quickly into the bedroom.Li Huan glanced at the two of them and asked, "How did your trip go?"

Wang Shaozuo said first: "Your Majesty, Zhao Guangyi agreed to confer Ding Xuan as the lord of Quyue and let you be his deputy. But he also said that your majesty, you also have great plans. If you think Ding Xuan is young and incompetent, send Ding Xuan's mother and child to the court. Bianliang, he renamed you the Lord of Quyue."

Li Huan laughed loudly when he heard the words, "Hahaha, I have long been the emperor of Qu Yue, and I don't want to recognize Song as my ruler of Qu Yue, but Zhao Guangyi still tries to put me on the same side, it's really ridiculous!"

Jiang Juwang couldn't smile at all at this time, "Your Majesty, although the general is clumsy and clumsy, his eyes are very useful. While General Wang is speaking, the general has read all the civil and military affairs of Song Dynasty. Not only Cao Bin, Pan Mei Not in court, and not even Gao Huaide, Shi Shouxin, and Han Chongyun."

Wang Shaozuo also said nervously: "Yeah, the last general is also paying attention secretly. It is true that he did not see these famous generals. Do you think they are all among the 15 troops that invaded?"

Li Huan was not panicked, instead he laughed and raised his head to drink the fine wine in his glass, and then his eyes shot out with fiery fighting intent, "You two immediately lead 3 horses to Lang Son to garrison, no matter how the Song army scolds them, You must hold on. Ten days later, I will lead 10 people to support you. When I arrive, I will make the Song army bleed for thousands of miles and lay down millions of corpses. I will not return the court unless I kill all the enemies!"
