If you want to say whether Zhao Kuangyin is afraid or not, he is somewhat afraid.

A group of people broke in early in the morning, and they even brought soldiers. You would be stunned if you stamp on them.

Zhao Kuangyin was still a little tipsy after drinking some wine last night. As a result, he broke out in a cold sweat, and his slightly tipsy mood suddenly disappeared in Java.

After Ziliu woke up, he found that it was Zhao Pu and Zhao Kuangyi, and Zhao Kuangyin breathed a sigh of relief.

With such a big battle, I thought the court was here to arrest someone.

Of course, as Zhao Pu's good boss and Zhao Kuangyi's good brother, Zhao Kuangyin cannot show cowardice. Wearing a yellow robe sounds nice, but in fact, if you get to the bottom of it, it's just a rebellion with your head in your belt.

If it works, everyone will be happy. I will be the emperor, you will be the prime minister, and he will be the king of Jin. If we lose, then everyone will have fun together among the nine tribes.

Of course Zhao Kuangyin admitted that he was gambling, but having said that, most of the Korean and Chinese armies were in his hands, and his relatives and friends were all in important positions. That year, Zhao Kuangyin had his hands in his pockets and didn't know what an opponent was.

Bullying orphans and widowed mothers is quite skillful.

He doesn't feel ashamed. After all, face cannot be eaten, and becoming an emperor is the most beneficial thing.

As long as I have no morals, you can't kidnap me.

"What are you going to do?" Zhao Kuangyin, who was enlightened, pretended to be confused.

No one answered his words, so Zhao Kuangyi reached back and immediately two guards came forward carrying a brand new yellow dragon robe.

"Wait, what are you going to do?" Zhao Kuangyin looked at the imperial robe and couldn't help but feel a little "horrified". But his acting was really bad, even worse than Sima Zhao's acting at the scene of Cao Mao's death. Anyone who is not blind can see it at a glance.

"General, it's cold, please put on some clothes!" the guards said one after another.

"What...what is this?" Zhao Kuangyin quickly dodged, not daring to accept the dress.

"General, you don't know something." The soldier holding the clothes immediately said loudly according to the original script: "Speaking of this thing, it goes back twenty years ago. My father was walking on the Bianhe River at night. Suddenly, the sky The heavy rain was caused by lightning and thunder! According to my father, he saw a golden dragon in the sky. Only its head was visible, but its tail was not visible. It was spitting out thousands of flames and shining thousands of flashes of light directly on the Bianhe River embankment. It was really amazing. There is a potential for the earth to collapse.”

"After sunrise, my father took his people and searched along the river embankment. They risked their lives and climbed up to the Dragon Mountain on the riverside. They saw the Dragon King Temple on the mountain in splendor." The soldier got excited and danced and gestured. "My late father and others were curious, so they walked into the temple and took a look. Under the statue of the Dragon King, there was a treasure that was radiating light."

"My father boldly stepped forward to check. The shining treasure was none other than this dragon robe!" The soldier's expression recalled the turbulent past. "Along with the dragon robe, there was a stone on it. There are five big characters written on it: "Check to be the Emperor".

"Oh? Is this true?" Zhao Kuangyin glanced at Zhao Pu and Zhao Kuangyi in surprise, thinking that you two are doing very well.

"It's absolutely true, how dare a villain deceive the general?" The soldier's tone was decisive and extremely pious. Even during the wedding night, he was not as sincere as now: "Today, I am young, the country has no master, and the sky is warning me, why don't the general Follow the will of God and follow the will of the people?”

"You... how dare you say such rebellious words!" Zhao Kuangyin took a breath of air, "You'd better stop saying such words of having no king and no father, otherwise I won't be able to protect you!"

"Brother! He is right!" Zhao Kuangyi immediately stepped forward and said: "Brother, do you think that proclaiming the emperor is for yourself? Brother, this is for the common people of the world, for the common people of Li, and for the countless loyal ministers in the court!"

"Don't mention this matter again. The late Emperor and I are dear friends and brothers, brothers!" Zhao Kuangyin looked up to the sky and sighed: "Now that the late Emperor died before he started his business, how can I bear to bully his orphans and widowed mother?"

"Besides, the world is still uncertain and wars are raging everywhere. How can I, Zhao Kuangyin, be so virtuous and capable that I dare to occupy a high position?!"

"If the Liao Kingdom invades, causing the late Emperor's foundation to collapse, the people to be in ruins, and the Queen Mother and Your Majesty to be humiliated at the hands of the barbarians, this would be disrespectful to the late Emperor!" Zhao Pu's tone was extremely heartbreaking.

Zhao Kuangyin was so moved that he burst into tears: "If my brother doesn't take the throne soon and support the country, what will happen to the people?"

"you……"

Before Zhao Kuangyin finished speaking, he heard a shout from the soldiers below, and someone immediately rushed up and forced the imperial robe onto him.

Zhao Kuangyin did say no, but his body... was more honest than anyone else. He cooperated with the soldiers to put the yellow robe on him, and even took the initiative to stretch his arms to let people put the clothes on him.

What kind of words can’t be said to be upright?

After the yellow robe was put on, Zhao Kuangyin was picked up by the soldiers and carried to the center of the courtyard of Guanyi before he could say anything.

In the courtyard, a chair with a golden dragon carved on it had already been set up. After placing Zhao Kuangyin on it, the soldiers immediately knelt down and shouted long live the mountain.

"You have really hurt me..." Zhao Kuangyin sighed and said, "Didn't this make me a disloyal and unjust person?"

When the soldiers waiting outside the post heard the shouts of "Long Live the Mountain" in the courtyard, they immediately knelt on the ground and shouted "Long Live the Long Live" together, the sound resounding throughout the world.

Zhao Kuangyin was very pleased, but in order to show that the matter had nothing to do with him, he still said: "You guys, you are greedy for wealth and honor, and made me the emperor without authorization. If you can obey me in everything, then forget it; if you can't obey My order, then you should ask Gao Ming, I am really not humble. "

"Your Majesty, don't worry, we will definitely obey your Majesty's orders!" Zhao Pu changed his mind quickly and immediately knelt on the ground and said.

Zhao Kuangyi also nodded and said: "Brother Huang has orders, and I must obey him!"

"In this case, I feel relieved." Zhao Kuangyin nodded and couldn't help but mutter: "You are really hurting me..."

Zhao Pu and Zhao Kuangyi looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

People like Zhao Kuangyin are talking about being obedient even when they get an advantage. But there is no way, who is the boss? Now he is still the emperor... What the hell is Mrs. Du... Oh no, now she should be called Empress Dowager Du. Empress Dowager Du said it was okay, but these subordinates were not suitable.

Complaining about the boss, he is still an emperor-level boss. Are you willing to die or not?

Zhao Kuangyin, who was sitting on the chair, had even thought about the year name, let alone the country name. He is thinking about his successor, and Zhao Dezhao is definitely the most suitable candidate.

Of course he could not have imagined now that the Song Dynasty had its own national conditions and Taizu's son could not become the emperor. "Since His Majesty has ascended the throne, there will be no two days in the sky, and there will be no two masters in the country. As the saying goes, one must first settle the internal affairs in order to resist foreign aggression. My younger brother suggested that we should return to Kaifeng and establish the throne as soon as possible!" Zhao Kuangyi raised his hands and spoke righteously.

"Isn't this...not good?" Zhao Kuangyin was really hesitant this time: "Do you seem a little impatient?"

It's not that he doesn't want to go to Kaifeng, but he feels that Zhao Kuangyi should not bring up this matter.

After all, Zhao Kuangyi is his younger brother. To a certain extent, Zhao Kuangyi is now the incarnation of Zhao Kuangyin, and his words and deeds basically represent his meaning.

"Your Majesty, you should understand that there are no two days in the sky and no two masters in the country." Zhao Pu said immediately: "Otherwise, will the army listen to you or the little emperor of the Guo family? The soldiers' families are still in Kaifeng. If there is any delay in the city, we may cause trouble to the ancestors of the Han Dynasty, and the whole family will be harmed by traitors!"

The "disaster of the early Han Dynasty" that Zhao Pu refers to refers to the story of Guo Wei and Chai Rong who rebelled outside. As a result, all the family members were in the capital, and were dragged out one by one by the emperor of the later Han Dynasty to light sky lanterns.

This also directly led to the death of Guo Wei and his adopted son Chai Rong as emperor.

Of course, the blame does not lie with Guo Wei. After all, it was already in a state where the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. The Later Han Dynasty can be said to be abstract to the extreme, and they forced Guo Wei to rebel.

"In this case, then the whole army will set off and return to Kaifeng as soon as possible!" Zhao Kuangyin also knew that there was no need to delay. Since Zhao Pu gave a reasonable reason, he would just listen.

Zhao Kuangyin has no other merits except listening to advice.

He added: "The generals must listen to my orders. After returning to Kaifeng, they must not offend the Queen Mother and the young emperor in the slightest, infringe upon the ministers in the court, or plunder the treasury of the court or city. Please obey orders. Those who disobey orders will be punished!"

"No!" All the soldiers knelt on the ground and responded.

After announcing a series of orders, Zhao Kuangyin led the army and returned to the court.

In the official history books of the Song Dynasty, it was claimed that Zhao Kuangyin had no premeditation before Chenqiao's mutiny. However, after Zhao Kuangyin came to the throne, there was no need to go out again. The Liao soldiers "escaped on their own". There is no record of "the year of the Southern invaders" in the "History of Liao". Moreover, shortly before the mutiny, there were rumors in Bianliang, the capital, that "he was inspected to be the emperor." , coupled with the ready-made preparations for the yellow robe, the advance drafting of the Zen edict, and the words of Zhao Kuangyin's mother: "My son has always had great ambitions, and now it is true." In addition, after taking the throne, Zhao Kuangyin killed the gatekeeper of Qiu and was promoted to Judging from historical data such as the official positions of Chenqiao gatekeepers, the Chenqiao mutiny must have been a premeditated military coup.

It was precisely because Zhao Kuangyin paid attention to strict military discipline and ordered the troops to return to their barracks as soon as they returned to Kaifeng. There was no chaos in Kaifeng city like the burning, killing and looting that had occurred during the changes of dynasties in the past Five Dynasties. Therefore, he received the support of the officials of the former Later Zhou Dynasty.

When Zhao Kuangyin launched a coup and wore the yellow robe, the main Forbidden Army generals guarding the capital, such as Shi Shouxin, Wang Shenqi and others, were all Zhao Kuangyin's brothers and good buddies. Knowing that he had mutinied, on the basis of helping his relatives rather than helping others, and also wanting to reap the benefits of the dragon, he immediately opened the city gate to respond.

When walking at the city gate, Zhao Kuangyin once again announced that he must commit no crimes after entering the capital, and those who disobey the order will not be punished immediately. All the troops, under the restraint of the officers, knew that the new emperor would most likely find someone to establish his authority in order to scare the monkeys, so they carefully restrained their actions and tried not to let themselves become the cause.

After all, Zhao Kuangyin also came from the Five Dynasties period. After the mutiny, he knew better than anyone what discipline the army had. Moreover, the emperors of the Five Dynasties all knew the importance of the army. In order to stabilize the morale of the army, many people would launch troops and plunder to win the hearts of the soldiers.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that bandits are defeated like a comb and soldiers are defeated like a grate. From ancient times to the present, no matter at home or abroad, armies with good military discipline are rare...

But the troops born each have their own tricks.

Of course Zhao Kuangyin has a clear conscience and can conquer the world by relying on large numbers of soldiers, but he cannot govern the world by relying on large numbers of soldiers. What he needs to win over is not the soldiers who have actually rebelled against him, but the officials in the court.

However, what disappointed him was that when he returned to Kaifeng, it was not a scene of vitality and all things flourishing where "all the people wholeheartedly welcomed him". There were also many people who vowed not to surrender to their old master, such as the deputy capital of the Guards and Ma Bujun. Commander Han Tong, the two of them hurriedly wanted to lead troops to resist, but before they could gather the troops, they were killed by Wang Yansheng of the military academy.

Zhao Kuangyin also knew that he was unreasonable, so he ordered the two to be buried generously.

Before riding back to the palace, Zhao Kuangyin looked at the majestic palace and couldn't help but feel excited.

It is said that the inspection will make you the emperor, and today the inspection has indeed become the emperor.

While he was in high spirits, he saw sergeants approaching with several courtiers.

The leader, whom Zhao Kuangyin was very familiar with, was none other than the then Prime Minister Fan Zhi.

Seeing Fan Zhi approaching, Zhao Kuangyin immediately got off his horse. He pinched his thigh secretly and said with a sob: "Xiang Fan, you came at the right time. All the soldiers have done injustice to me and insist on making me the emperor." , now they are forcing me to come to the capital, what can I do?"

While talking, he also described in detail to Lao Fan how the officials in Guanyi intimidated him.

Before Fan Zhi could say anything, Military Academy Luo Yanhuan raised his sword and gestured at Fan Zhi and said: "We have no master, we must get an emperor today!"

This has been made very clear, just like what my brother Zhentao said, you have to agree whether you agree today, or you have to agree if you don't agree.

Lao Fan is not Huaqiang, and he has little experience in dealing with this kind of thing.

Zhao Kuangyin immediately said angrily: "What are you doing! Who asked you to talk to Fan Xiang like this! Why don't you back down!"

"No!" Luo Yanhuan raised his hands to Zhao Kuangyin, then looked back at Fan Zhi threateningly.

Fan Zhi always felt that he was a scholar meeting a soldier today, and he couldn't explain why.

Seeing Luo Yanhuan's unlucky retreat, Fan Zhi sighed and asked Zhao Kuangyin: "The late Emperor Shizong took care of the Taiwei like a son. Now that his body is not cold, why do you do this?"

Zhao Kuangyin's younger brother Zhao Kuangyi, who was on the side, heard this and immediately burst into tears very cooperatively.

But Fan Zhi knew that the situation was over, so he sighed and said: "The matter has come to this, so don't be too hasty. Since ancient times, emperors have had the ceremony of abdication, and now it can be held."

Seeing that Zhao Kuangyin was still looking at him expectantly, Fan Zhi gave a detailed explanation of the etiquette of abdication, and then said: "Since the Taiwei accepted the abdication through etiquette, he should serve the Queen Mother like a mother and support the young master like a son. Don't let him down." The late emperor’s old kindness!”

Chai Rong, who was above the clouds, watched all this, gritting his teeth and his eyes were about to burst.
