The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 503 Forced to abdicate

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, it's not good, it's not good, the city is broken!" When Wanyan Liang was still sleeping soundly in his palace, there was a loud shout from outside, which woke him up directly.

"What did you say?" Wan Yanliang ran out in a hurry without even getting his clothes on.

"Your Majesty, the Song army has invited the heavenly soldiers and generals to open a gap in the southern city wall. Now the Song army is coming to the city along the gap." The messenger said to Wan Yanliang anxiously.

Heavenly soldiers and generals?How is it possible? The emperor has always been the emperor to fool the people below. If there are heavenly soldiers and generals in this world, then he is also the emperor, and he should be able to summon the heavenly soldiers and generals. Will.

But these are obviously not important. The most important thing now is not the heavenly soldiers and generals, but the fact that the walls of Youzhou City have been broken.

The city wall is broken, and the Song army is about to break in.

Sure enough, soon, Wu Gu, the guard of Nancheng, rushed in and said to Wan Yanliang: "Your Majesty, the Song army has already controlled the gate of Nancheng, and they are now rushing towards the city. Although the last general resisted desperately, but ..."

"But what?" Wan Yanliang widened his eyes, too many things happened today, he couldn't accept it now.

"Your Majesty, let's hurry up and retreat." Wu Gu knelt in front of Wan Yanliang and said with a painful expression on his face.

"Retreat?" Wan Yan stood up from his seat and said, "Do you dare to ask me to retreat?"

"Report, Prime Minister Zuo Liyuan begs to see you..."

"The Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Yan Yuan, asked to see..."

……

Wan Yanliang was about to say something, but at this moment the eunuchs outside hurried in, and hearing the voice of the transmission, all the civil and military officials of the court, who should have come, probably have already arrived.

Is the tide over?

Wan Yanliang frowned and said, "All go to the Jinluan Hall."

Wan Yanliang's bedroom cannot accommodate so many people.

On the Golden Palace.

"Your Majesty, for today's plan, the general situation is over, and we have to give up this Youzhou City." Prime Minister Zuo took a step forward from Yuan, and said to Wan Yanliang.

"Retreat?" Wan Yanliang smiled wryly. Now that Shanhai Pass is occupied, even if he wants to retreat, where can he retreat to?
"Report, Your Majesty, the south city gate has fallen, and the Song army is rushing towards the palace..."

"Wu Gu, with 10 people in your hands, even if someone broke through the city wall, wouldn't you be able to hold on so soon?" Wan Yanliang said angrily.

"Your Majesty, hurry up and retreat." Li Yuan took a step forward and said to Wan Yanliang.

"No!" Wan Yanliang replied decisively, and said, "I have decided to live and die with Youzhou City."

This decision shocked all the ministers in the city, and if they lived and died together, wouldn't that be death?
"Your Majesty, absolutely not. There is an old saying in the Song Dynasty, if you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about firewood. Now that our soldiers and horses are still here, if we stick to them, it will be no different from sending them to death." Li Yuan hurriedly Stand up and persuade.

Even if they retreated, wouldn't they be sent to die?
Now that Shanhaiguan is occupied by the Song Army, even if they want to retreat, there will be no Youzhou City at that time. Outside, the Song Army has such powerful arrows and cannons, and it will become a moving target by then. A dead end.

In this Youzhou city... Well, it seems that there is still a dead end.

"Your Majesty, please think twice..."

"Your Majesty, please think twice..."

After Li Yuan, the rest of the ministers knelt on the ground to remonstrate.

"It's not that I don't want to follow you, but in the current situation, even if I want to retreat, I'm afraid..." Wan Yanliang didn't continue, but everyone should understand what he meant.

"Your Majesty, there is only one solution for the current situation." Li Yuan took a deep breath and said to Wan Yanliang.

Wan Yanliang stared at Li Yuan and said, "Is there any way?"

"Your Majesty... abdicate to the virtuous!" Li Yuan hesitated for a while, and finally said these four words.

"What did you say?" Wan Yanliang stared at his own eyes. If eyes could kill, Li Yuan would probably be torn to pieces by Wan Yanliang now.

Regal majestic!
Wan Yanliang stared at Li Yuan in front of him, and suddenly smiled. He looked at the civil and military men of the court who were kneeling below, and finally understood that this group of people came to force him to abdicate.

Someone always pays for the mistakes you make, right?

"Your Majesty, what I mean is that Your Majesty will be located in the Crown Prince Wanyan Renbao, and the Crown Prince will ascend the throne and lead the people to leave Youzhou City." What Li Yuan said next gave Wanyan Liang the urge to kill someone.

"Are you trying to force me to abdicate?" Wan Yanliang gritted his teeth and said, as the biggest ambitious man, at this time, when encountering such a situation, the anger in Wan Yanliang's heart can be felt by everyone present arrive.

"Your Majesty!" Li Yuan knelt on the ground and put his body completely on the ground. He burst into tears and said, "The soldiers in the city are now demoralized. The soldiers and civilians generally believe that this failure is due to the relocation of the capital. At this time... "

When Li Yuan said this, he stopped and didn't continue, but the meaning was obvious, that is, someone had to pay for this matter, and in this case, Wan Yanliang could only pay.

After all, when the capital was moved back then, most people did not support it, but now that the Dajin Kingdom has become the current situation, many courtiers don't want to follow Wanyanliang anymore.

Wan Yanliang stared at Li Yuan in front of him, and then looked at the surrounding courtiers, and found that the group of people lowered their heads and did not speak, but they did not stand up to object at this time, which meant they were supporting Li Yuan's proposal.

The betrayal of relatives should refer to Wan Yanliang at this time.

"You all think so?" Wan Yanliang sneered, he really couldn't imagine that a few years ago, the scene where the Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji of the Song Dynasty was in Zhao Huan was actually repeated on his body.

It's just that Zhao Ji wanted to escape at that time, but Wan Yanliang didn't want to leave at this time.

"What if I don't agree?" Wan Yanliang snorted coldly.

"Your Majesty, please consider for the future generations of my Dajin Kingdom, think twice!"

"Your Majesty, please think twice!" All the ministers of the Kingdom of Jin urged in unison.

Wan Yanliang smiled wryly. The situation in front of him was really a great irony for him. Now that the civil and military forces of the whole court are against it, if he continues to insist, there may really be a mutiny.

"According to my decree, from now on, I will pass on the throne to Prince Wanyan Renbao, with the assistance of Li Yuan, Wanyan Rang, and Wanyan Qi, to ensure that our Great Jin Kingdom will last forever!" At the end, Wan Yanliang's words are full of irony.
