"Stand up! Zhao Kuangyin's choice has nothing to do with you!"

Seeing Zhao Shirong like this, Zhu Houzhao sighed and said, "I won't be angry with you.

It was Zhao Kuangyin and his people who did the wrong thing. Moreover, sometimes, even Zhao Kuangyin would be in a difficult position. I know this..."

Zhao Shirong was speechless. Was Zhao Kuangyin in a difficult situation at this time?
Zhu Houzhao had already sent a large army to invade the Song Dynasty. Could Zhao Kuangyin have just handed over the country to Zhu Houzhao?
Since they can't give the country to Zhu Houzhao, they can only continue to fight with Zhu Houzhao!!
But at this time, Zhu Houzhao said this. Could it be that Zhu Houzhao himself was in a difficult situation?
Could it be that the entire Ming Dynasty wanted to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty?
If you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem impossible!
After all, the national strength of the Southern Song Dynasty was too weak for the Ming Dynasty. If it were in its heyday, it might still have some ability to fight, but now the main force of the Southern Song Dynasty is almost gone!!
At this moment, even if Zhu Houzhao wanted to stop the war, it would probably not be an easy thing to do.

It’s not that Zhu Houzhao’s prestige couldn’t do this. Zhao Shirong, who had always stayed in the Ming Dynasty, knew about Zhu Houzhao’s prestige.

In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houzhao was definitely an emperor who had the final say.

Just like when Zhu Houzhao directly promoted the reform, many people came out to stop him, but in the end they were all resolved by Zhu Houzhao.

That time, Zhu Houzhao killed a lot of people, and after that he continued to clean up people.

There were even several years when the people around Zhu Houzhao were either cleaning up people or on their way to cleaning up people.

However, the benefits are also huge. Now the Ming Dynasty is the most powerful country in the Zongwu Continent, and this is all brought about by Zhu Houzhao himself.

Perhaps, getting Wu Qi back was just a matter of a word from Zhu Houzhao.

However, the Ming Dynasty transported Datong's troops and food to the front line. If Zhu Houzhao himself did not want to fight at this time, how much loss would it cause?
You know, the loss of these military rations when they are sent to the front line is much greater than what the soldiers themselves eat.

If people and horses were traveling on land, the consumption of food would be an astronomical figure.

This is how all the Ming Dynasty’s wealth was spent.

When fighting against the Yuan Dynasty, the benefits Zhu Houzhao gained were far less than the expenses incurred during this period.

This does not include the casualties among the soldiers.

Zhao Shirong also thought that he did not have the face to ask Zhu Houzhao to withdraw his troops!
After all, if Zhu Houzhao did this, he would not be Zhu Houzhao!
If he was addicted to beauty, how could he have achieved what he has today? Do you really think Zhu Houzhao was a lustful person who couldn't walk when he saw a beautiful woman?
Or do you think Zhu Houzhao has always been a puppet emperor?
His current achievements are only because he has a group of good ministers? Impossible!
Thinking of this, Zhao Shirong felt helpless. The Song Dynasty was doomed!
As for assassinating Zhu Houzhao, Zhao Shirong didn't dare and couldn't do it. This man was not someone he could fight against!
On the contrary, this would anger Zhu Houzhao, and then no one in the Southern Song royal family would survive!
"Shirong came here this time to ask Your Majesty, how you plan to treat the people of the Southern Song Dynasty?" Taking a deep breath, Zhao Shirong stared at Zhu Houzhao and asked.

"The people of Southern Song?
It seems that you have almost determined that the Ming Dynasty will win!" Zhu Houzhao glanced at Zhao Shirong and chuckled, "At least your stay in Yanjing during this period was not in vain, and you really did not disappoint me!
Facing the rolling torrent, you can't do anything by yourself!" Zhao Shirong was silent after hearing this. Indeed, he could do nothing!
"The war between Ming Dynasty and Southern Song Dynasty is inevitable. At this time, I will not let the army return. After all, it is an opportunity for Ming Dynasty. I believe that if Zhao Kuangyin finds an opportunity, he will not miss such an opportunity to go to war with Ming Dynasty!
After all, we are all for the country. As for the hatred between me and Zhao Kuangyin, we have never even met each other, so where does the hatred come from!" At this point, Zhu Houzhao's expression became serious: "However, after conquering the Southern Song Dynasty in the future, it is inevitable to attack and suppress the Zhao family.

I guess you can't possibly think that after the country is gone, the Zhao family can still enjoy the same happiness as before!
As the royal family, they need to take responsibility for the country's destruction. After all, they themselves enjoy corresponding rights.

Just like in the Ming Dynasty, many members of the Zhu family, because they were the so-called royal family, received all kinds of wealth and splendor. If one day, the Ming Dynasty was gone, then their death would be justified!
Even if our clan was exterminated, I still think this is normal!"

When Zhao Shirong heard Zhu Houzhao's words, she was immediately frightened and pale: "Your Majesty wants to destroy the Zhao family?"

After hundreds of years of development, Zhao Shirong didn't know how many people there were in the entire Zhao family, but if you really counted them, there must be thousands of them.

Even tens of thousands of people is not impossible!
Just as Zhu Houzhao said, the Zhao family enjoys the offerings from the people, so naturally they have the obligation to protect the people.

If one day the Southern Song Dynasty ceased to exist, then the Zhao family would, to some extent, have an obligation to sacrifice their lives for the country. What else can you do? After all, you are a royal family.
Anyway, in Zhu Houzhao's view, this obligation must be fulfilled! If one day in the future, the Ming Dynasty is really about to end, Zhu Houzhao will choose to kill all the people in the Zhu family as soon as possible.

Anyway, I am not feeling well, and I cannot let these people feel well!
"Destroy the Zhao family? That's not the case!" Zhu Houzhao shook his head slightly and said, "It depends on what they are doing, what kind of people they are usually like, and their influence.

Do you think I will keep someone with greater influence?
For the Ming Dynasty, these people are more or less a hidden danger!"

After thinking for a while, Zhu Houzhao continued: "Of course, these people may also become the bait left behind by the alliance.

After all, I have done such things before, such as using these people to attract some uncontrollable and ambitious people, just like what I did in the Qing Dynasty.

Although many people died, I did eliminate all of them."

Zhu Houzhao's words made Zhao Shirong feel creepy.

In other words, Zhu Houzhao actually still wanted to destroy the Zhao family!
However, think about it carefully. If Zhao Kuangyin attacked the Ming Dynasty and had the upper hand, or even destroyed the Ming Dynasty, would he let the royal family of the Ming Dynasty go?
From Zhao Shirong's point of view, it seems impossible!
After all, for Zhao Kuangyin, each of these royal families of the Ming Dynasty was a hidden danger.

If it can be removed, then it should be removed! (End of this chapter)
