The Jin army besieged the city, and the Song emperor’s daughter died

Chapter 3 Rule the world (3)

Funing Hall!
All civil and military officials who were qualified to enter the court gathered together and lined up on both sides.

Shangshu Zuo Cheng, Shao Zai Li Bangyan and his servant Wu Min hold an edict written by the Emperor Daojun to declare to all ministers!

"For my bad deeds, I was consecrated to the ancestral temple. Thanks to the spirit of heaven and earth, I have been in peace for twenty-six years. I have paid tribute to the great entrustment entrusted by the saints, and I have only been afraid of it day and night... The princess's blessings, gold, and wisdom will be withered every day. , filial piety to friends and gentleness, known all over the world, women do not give way to men...it is still necessary to be civil and military, loyal and good, to be united in virtue, to govern with the same background."

After announcing the abdication edict, after a moment of silence, the whole place was in an uproar!

Li Gang looked at Wu Min in disbelief!

It was he and Wu Min who discussed the matter of persuading Emperor Daojun to abdicate the throne to the crown prince!

Until now, the abdication was abdication, but the person who won the throne became the princess Zhao Fujin!
"Wu Shilang, is this an official edict?" Li Gang stepped out!
Wu Min said calmly: "It is indeed an official handwriting!"

"Where's the prince?"

"The prince is benevolent and filial, and is willing to abort his position as prince and live with the officials in Longde Palace in order to serve the officials and support the officials in their old age!" Li Yanbang, the young prime minister, explained, but the ministers felt that this matter was too bizarre and ridiculous. Keep talking!

"The Jin army will reach Kaifeng in ten days. The official's abdication at this time has shaken the people's hearts. If he passes the throne to the princess, the world may be in great trouble!"

"I want to see the official!"

"Yes, I'll wait to hear the official announcement in person!"

……

……

There was constant uproar in the palace, and officials, big and small, refused to believe that Emperor Daojun could pass the throne to the princess!

"Wu Zetian controlled the Tang Dynasty, but I can't control the Song Dynasty?"

After a scolding, all the officials in Funing Hall followed the sound and looked outside the hall!

In the wind and snow, Zhao Fujin's red cloak was extremely dazzling, and his deerskin boots made a creaking sound when stepping on the snow.

Confident, calm and heroic!
Beside Zhao Fujin, there are about a hundred guards from the Imperial City Division guarding him on the left and right. Following on the left is an extraordinary and handsome bald monk, and on the right is none other than Grand Tutor Tong Guan!
When the ministers saw that there was a young master accompanying him, they all shut up and said nothing!

Zhao Fujin stepped into the Xuanhe Hall, without squinting, and with an extraordinary bearing, he walked step by step towards the dragon chair in front of him. After she pressed one of her jade hands on the dragon chair, Li Yanbang, Wu Min, and Tong Guan bowed their heads!

"My lord, congratulations to the empress on her grand achievement!"

The most powerful core members of the Song Dynasty have all knelt down and proclaimed themselves ministers. The rest of the officials hesitated for a moment, but then they all knelt down and bowed down, whether they wanted to or not: "I congratulate the Empress on her ascension to the throne!"

A palace usurpation resulted in the death of a damn lecher, Cai You!

Zhao Fujin counted five seconds silently in his mind, and then he slowly turned around, lifted his cloak, and sat on the throne of the Song Dynasty!
"Everyone loves you! The Song Dynasty didn't like kneeling before, and it will be even less popular in the future!"

A simple sentence conveyed a message to the ministers: As long as you obey, everything will continue as before!
This is the best way to appease people's hearts!

However, the Jin Army's West Route Army has arrived at Taiyuan City, and the East Route Army will soon arrive outside Kaifeng City. The Song Dynasty is in danger.

Compared with who will be the emperor and whether there will be a good life in the future, how to defeat the enemy is the top priority. If Kaifeng is destroyed, it won't matter who becomes the emperor. The good days will be over, and there will be nothing left in the future. !
Zhao Fujin also calculated this accurately, so he got a throne that no one wanted so easily!
"In the official family, I have a report from Taichang Shaoqing Li Gang!"

Li Gang came out again and bowed to salute: "The Jin Army will arrive at Kaifeng City in ten days. How to deal with it? Officials are asked to decide as soon as possible to stabilize the government and calm the people!"

Hearing this, Zhao Fujin nodded slightly and said with a smile: "What Li Aiqing said is absolutely true. Today's plan should be to defend against foreign enemies first! If you have any ideas, please tell me!"

How dare all ministers speak out!

Emperor Daojun has been in power for many years, and the idea that those who obey me will prosper and those who go against me will perish has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of all the court ministers. Now that the empress has just ascended the throne, she has to deal with such important state affairs. No one knows what the empress is thinking. ,say what?Speaking of the empress, I feel okay in my heart. If I say the wrong thing, a daughter is like her father, wouldn't I be asking for trouble!
The scoundrel of the Cai family, Bai Shi, was in a high position and had been granted the title of Duke. From the very beginning, he was muttering in his heart: "How can Emperor Daojun consecrate his daughter to the throne? This is absolutely impossible!"

When he saw Tong Guan accompanying him, he immediately felt enlightened!
Emperor Daojun wanted to leave the capital and seek refuge. He originally wanted to dump the blame on the prince, but maybe he was temporarily soft-hearted and couldn't bear to kill his son, so he abdicated the throne to his daughter and asked her to be a scapegoat!
If this is the case, then this matter is much simpler!
The Jin army was as powerful as tigers and dragons, and even the Tao Lord and Emperor were frightened, let alone a woman!When you ask questions about politics at this time, you must want to seek peace!
So what are you waiting for?
Bai Shizhong came out: "In the official family, I think..."

"Certain territory for peace?" Before Bai Shizhong could speak, Zhao Fujin looked at him with disgust and asked.

"Huh? The officials also have this intention? I thought..."

"You made a fortune by licking Cai Jing first and then Cai You, right?"

Bai Shizhong was stunned. The empress' words were too... vulgar!This is a court!

He looked around and murmured in his heart: "Where is Cai You? Did he accompany the Supreme Emperor to Longde Palace? He is indeed a confidant of the Supreme Emperor. He doesn't even have to come when the new emperor ascends the throne! No comparison, no comparison!"

"Are you looking for Cai You?" Zhao Fujin smiled brightly, making Bai Shizhong feel like spring breeze.

"The officials were joking, but I was just thinking that when the new emperor ascended the throne and the British Duke was not in the palace, it was too ungrateful!" Bai Shizhong also laughed and said: "The British Duke has discussed with me many times, and for today's We are planning to have peace talks with the Jin army. As for the terms of the negotiations, I dare not make any false claims. Please let the officials make a decision!"

Bai Shizhong thought: "Is this enough face for you?"

Before Zhao Fujin could speak, Li Gang stepped forward: "We must not negotiate for peace! The city of Kaifeng is high and deep, and it is difficult for the Jin army to break the city! We only need to rectify the soldiers and horses in the city, call on the people to defend the city, and then order reinforcements from all over the country to stay until the reinforcements arrive. , the Jin army will be destroyed without attack!"

Zhao Fujin said, "Who does Li Aiqing think will be responsible for this?"

Li Gang was stunned and felt overjoyed. Is the empress going to take the lead?Otherwise, I wouldn’t ask such a specific question!

"I think Chongguo Gong Bai Shizhong or British Gong Cai You can take up this position!"

Bai Shizhong was stunned, waved his hands repeatedly, and said angrily: "Huh, can't Li Gang lead the army? The British Duke and I have always advocated peace, and the Supreme Emperor cannot do without the British Duke!"

"Well, the British prince really can't lead the army to defend the city." Zhao Fujin frowned.

Bai Shi was overjoyed: "The Empress really wants to listen to the Supreme Emperor! She's just a puppet!"

Bai Shizhong cupped his hands and saluted: "The officials are wise!"

Zhao Fujin smiled and said: "Don't you ask the British Lord why he can't lead the army?"

Bai Shizhong was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I'm afraid it's the Emperor's intention!"

Zhao Fujin laughed loudly and pointed at Tong Guan: "Tong Taiwei, tell him!"

Tong Guan had a gloomy face the whole time and turned to look at Bai Shizhong: "Cai You has been beheaded by the officials!"

Bai Shizhong was still smiling just now, but when he heard this, his smile suddenly froze: "Cut...chop?"

In the hall that had just fallen silent, there was another burst of whispering.

"Snapped!"

Zhao Fujin slammed the dragon chair and stood up: "I have decided that I will never negotiate with those barbarians in the white mountains and black waters! I want them to never come back! From now on, if you dare to talk about peace talks again, Cai You will be yours example!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Gang raised his head and said loudly: "My lord Li Gang, I would like to join the empress in fighting against the golden thief with one heart and one mind! Long live the empress, long live, long live the empress!"

Now that the matter has come to this, all the civil and military officials in Funing Palace, whether they like it or not, have to take sides now!
"I am willing to join hands with the Empress and fight against the golden thief together. Long live, long live, long live!"

The voices of the ministers resounded throughout the palace!

In the Imperial Study Room, Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan's father and son looked at each other: "Don't they say that you will die in battle?"
