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

Chapter 4
This night in Kaifeng City, the snow has not stopped and the wind is howling!

Most people toss and turn and cannot sleep peacefully.

Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan were crowded on the only bed in Longde Palace, staring at each other for a long time. They wanted to say something, but they didn't know where to start.

All the ministers couldn't sleep well that night, some sighed, and some were too excited to sleep.

The class of scholar-bureaucrats who have studied history know very well that the new emperor's ascension to the throne will inevitably disrupt the previous court structure. Some people take off on the same spot, while others fall to the bottom. When crises and opportunities coexist, how can they lie down and sleep soundly?

To say that the one who slept the most soundly that night was probably Zhao Fujin!
In the imperial study room, he slept with his clothes on, breathing evenly and rising and falling at regular intervals.

Han Shizhong, who was guarding outside the palace, glanced at Yuhou Guo Jing, the palace's front minister, who had thin arms and legs beside him: "When did you get dragged into trouble by the emperor... bah, by the officials?"

Although Guo Jing had never heard of Han Shizhong's reputation and did not know what his official position was, Zhao Fujin was able to bring a monk like him to the temple today, which showed that they had a good friendship, so he did not dare to neglect him. He bowed and saluted: "Go back to Master, Four years ago, Xiaguan was still a soldier in the imperial army. I don’t know why he was favored by the officials. After a lot of effort and money, he was promoted to the position of deputy director of the Imperial City Department! I will die to repay the divine grace!"

Grandmaster?

Han Shizhong touched his bare head and felt a little unhappy: "I am a fake monk, my common name is Han Shizhong, my brothers call me Po Han Wu!"

"Okay Master Po!"

……

……

Han Shizhong was speechless, waved his hands and turned away!
Early the next morning, the wind and snow suddenly stopped, and the sun, which had not been seen for many days, hung warmly on the horizon.

Zhao Fujin washed and changed his clothes under the waiting of the chamberlain. As soon as he left the imperial study, he went straight to Longde Palace.

Just as Zhao Fujin was thinking, a large number of officials from the court and the central government had gathered outside Longde Palace at this time, clamoring to pay their respects to the Supreme Emperor. Among them were many concubines from the harem and relatives of the emperor, including King Yun Zhao Kai, King Kang Zhao Gou, Crown Princess Zhu Lian and others are among them.

The Imperial City Secretary cooperated with the Kuaiyi Tianwu Army to keep these people out of the palace. Although they were respectful but firm, they would not let them enter the palace!
Seeing the empress coming, the officials surrounding the palace looked at each other in confusion. After exchanging glances with each other, they bowed to greet her. However, the concubines and several princes in the harem did not salute, but looked at her coldly.Crown Princess Zhu Lian even rushed towards Zhao Fujin, shouting as she did so: "Hurry up and let the father go, let the prince go!"

If it weren't for the quick eyesight and quick hands of the people in the Imperial City Division who stopped Zhu Lian, Zhu Lian would probably have taken advantage of him and dealt it out!
After all, if Zhao Fujin hadn't seized the throne a day ago, she would probably have been a saint by now!
It’s understandable if you feel resentful!

Zhao Fujin did not get angry, he just glanced at Zhu Lian and then moved his eyes to the officials.

After watching carefully for a long time, Zhao Fujin slowly smiled and said: "I thought that at least a few prime ministers and assistants would come to pay respects to the Supreme Emperor today, and at worst, a few high-ranking officials from the second government and the third division would come. I didn't expect..."

Zhao Fujin looked at the harem concubines and the princes again, and his smile became brighter: "We, the Zhao family, should be more intimate!"

Zhao Fujin's smile comes from the heart.

Because judging from the current situation, yesterday's coup was quite successful.

Because even speculators like Bai Shizhong and Li Yanbang did not appear in Longde Palace!
What does it mean?
This shows that the backbone of the imperial court is now busy dealing with the attack of the Jin army. This is a major matter that affects their lives. As for how the imperial court will develop in the future and what their SWOT is in this change, they have not yet After careful consideration, he found out that they were all of the Zhao family's blood, so whoever sat on the throne would be the same!
And the officials currently surrounding the gate of Longde Palace are either some frustrated officials who want to take this opportunity to make a fuss, maybe they can make a name for themselves in history!Either they are the natal family members of the concubines in the harem, the Dao Lord and the Emperor have meditated, or the Crown Prince has been deposed. It is these natal family members who are suffering the most at the moment!

For example, the father of Crown Princess Zhu Lian, the military governor of Wukang Zhu Bocai!

She worked hard to plow the land and gave birth to a daughter. After all the hard work, she was raised slim and graceful, and she was about to soar into the sky and become the mother of the country!It's better now, it's all gone. It's unbearable. If he doesn't stand up for his daughter and doesn't come to the Supreme Emperor to cry, that's abnormal!
There is more than one general like Zhu Bocai!
Zhao Fujin has done some statistics in his spare time over the years. During the Northern Song Dynasty, the proportion of first-marriage queens who came from generals was as high as 88.9%!The proportion of princes marrying generals’ daughters and royal daughters marrying generals’ sons is as high as over 60%!

Therefore, Zhao Fujin had expected that these generals' families would come to help the concubines in the harem!

As for the princes Zhao Kai and Zhao Gou...

emmm, there is a prince in the Song Dynasty?

In addition to the eight sage kings invented by later generations, which prince can you think of in the Song Dynasty? Zhao Er would not want someone like him to appear again!
Fortunately, all of this happened in the Song Dynasty. If it had been left in other dynasties, Zhao Fujin would have been eaten alive by these princes!
Therefore, facing such a group of guys who are glamorous on the surface and have big titles, but actually mean nothing, Zhao Fujin is not vain at all, and he does not want to waste time on them: "Are you waiting to greet the Supreme Emperor? Then you guys wait. , I will let you in after I go to say hello first!"

After that, he walked into Longde Palace with a bald monk without looking back!
In the Longde Palace, Zhao Ji sighed and sat in front of the desk, while Zhao Huan stood beside him with his hands hanging down!

Seeing Zhao Fujin enter the palace, Zhao Huan greeted him with a smile on his face: "Sister, you are here, my father has been waiting for you for a long time!"

Zhao Fujin smiled and nodded, walked to the desk, and bowed slightly to Zhao Ji: "My daughter has met her father!"

This "Father" call made Zhao Ji feel like beeswax was filling his heart, and he smiled happily. The panic he had felt since yesterday finally calmed down: "Very good, very good, my daughter didn't want to kill me!"

To be honest, over the years, Daojun Emperor Zhao Ji has treated Zhao Fujin like the apple of his eye, which is at least the most caring thing.

Prince Yun Zhao Kai is the most beloved among the princes, and Emperor Maode is the most beloved among the princesses. Back then, they even did not hesitate to slap their good friend Cai Jing in the face and refused the marriage between Cai Ji and Zhao Fujin. Zhao Fujin still thought of him for these things.

"Father, I am here to discuss with my father how to allow him to take refuge south!"

Zhao Ji was so excited that he almost cried: "This... this... can father leave?"

"Of course I have to leave!" Zhao Fujin waved, and Han Shizhong took a chair and placed it opposite Zhao Ji. Zhao Fujin pressed his skirt and sat down: "The Jin man will arrive soon, Kaifeng is in danger, my ministers Yesterday, when the emperor ascended the throne, he was not treasonous, but just wanted to share the worries of his father and brother!"

Zhao Fujin looked frank and said quietly: "My father pretended to be ill and had a stroke, but he was actually afraid that my eldest brother would not be willing to take orders in danger. But have you ever thought about it, that you can take your third brother and the others south to avoid the sharp edge of the Jin army, while leaving your eldest brother alone?" Stay and support the Song Dynasty alone. If the Jin army is defeated and retreats, if the Jin army breaks the city, my eldest brother will definitely... die for the country! They are all the blood of the father, can the father bear it?"

Speaking of the emotional part, Emperor Daojun was so guilty that he covered his face and cried!
Zhao Huan on the side was also extremely aggrieved and sobbed softly: "Sister understands me!"

"If the eldest brother wants this throne, my sister will issue an edict to meditate now, and I..."

"No need!" Before Zhao Fujin could finish speaking, Zhao Huan interrupted, fearing that he would be wronged again if he was too slow: "As a brother, I just want to serve my father. Wherever the father goes, I will be my brother." Wherever you go, Zhao Family Sheji, I leave it to my sister!"

Zhao Fujin suppressed his laughter and took out a piece of paper from his arms with a solemn expression: "This is the travel list that my daughter drew up for my father last night. Please take a look at it!"

Gao Qiu, Tong Guan, Yu Wencuizhong... none of the people Emperor Daojun originally wanted to bring were left behind, except for Cai You, who had already met the King of Hell, and one more biological son, Zhao Huan!
How could this be a rebellious son usurping power? This was clearly the little cotton-padded jacket of Emperor Daojun!

"My daughter just has one more request!"

Zhao Fujin did not say "conditions" or "requirements", but a "request", which shows his respect for the Supreme Emperor!
"You said, as a father, you will agree to everything!"
