King of Song

Chapter 509

die young!
Hearing this sentence, Lin Zhao couldn't help laughing!
In the original history, Zhao Xu died young indeed, he was only in his 30s when he died, and Song Zhezong, who came to the throne, was only a child, otherwise there would be no trouble with Empress Dowager Gao listening to politics behind a curtain.

However, the untimely death mentioned by Di Qing is definitely not the case. Zhao Xu is only in his 20s now. According to natural development, it will take more than ten years before he dies.More than ten years is not something they can wait for.Even if they can wait, Empress Dowager Cao may not be able to endure it!

Obviously, Di Qing hopes that this time will be further advanced. As for when it will be advanced... Thirty Years?or is it...

"Is Mr. Di planning to assassinate?" Lin Zhao was not surprised when he thought of this. With Mingyuezong's current strength, there are people from the imperial palace to the Imperial City Division, so the assassination may not be impossible.It's just that this kind of behavior is too risky, and it doesn't matter if the means are despicable, but it's not a last resort, it's better not to take such extremes lightly.

Di Qing shook his head and said: "I had this idea, but I don't plan to implement it for the time being. I just thought that if the time is better, I can take advantage of Zhao Xu's death and the vacancy of the throne, and justifiably ascend to the throne of God..."

The relationship between Lin Zhao and Zhao Xu is uncle and nephew. In history, nephews were driven away with the honor of emperor uncle. It seems that only Zhu Di, Emperor Yongle of Ming Dynasty, became emperor.Di Qing's meaning is obvious. It would be best if he can take the throne in a milder way, such as a palace coup or something.Is it possible to launch a Song Dynasty version of the Jingnan Campaign?
"If Zhao Xu dies before the queen mother, then the queen mother can justifiably support the son's ascension to the throne. The two generations of Zhao Zongshi and his son have gone against the law, which is disgusted by all the officials and the people. The son is the son of Emperor Renzong. He has a good reputation, but It is justifiable to ascend the throne!"

Di Qing said: "Otherwise, if something happens to the Queen Mother, it will be more troublesome before Zhao Xu dies. Besides Zhao Xu, Gao Taotao is also an extremely difficult person to deal with. Only the Queen Mother can suppress her!"

"That's true, but it's really hard to grasp the timing! If it's too early, we won't have time to prepare, and it's hard to make a big deal in a hurry." Lin Zhao said helplessly: "We can only grasp an appropriate timing, and we must also take into account the health of the queen mother. It's hard to grasp!"

"The person is not dead, but he is sick, and his health is in decline?" Di Qing said: "Will this shake the confidence of all officials in him? It will also make some people want to move!"

"This is possible!"

"Gao Taotao dotes on the second son, just like the Empress Dowager Dou loved the King of Liang in the Han Dynasty. Zhao Xu is not Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and Zhao Hao may not have the demeanor of Liu Wu, but Gao Taotao may not have the heart to be the Empress Dowager Dou!" Di Qing was silent for a moment, Another aspect came to mind.

After hearing this, Lin Zhao fell silent!

In the original history, after Zhao Xu's death, his son Song Zhezong took the throne, and Gao Taotao assisted the government as the empress dowager.But it was Zhao Xu who was 30 years old and had laid a certain foundation for his son.But what would Gao Taotao think if Zhao Xu's body collapsed early?Especially now, Zhao Xu has no surviving son, so the situation is naturally completely different.

Empress Dowager Gao Taotao, although Lin Zhao has never met this sister-in-law, she knows that she is an extremely powerful character, and she does not dare to take it lightly!
Di Qing said softly: "I just came up with such an idea by chance. I thought that if the situation is like this, it will be much easier for the young master to win the throne. It's just that it is not easy to achieve it, but it depends on human effort, and you can still imagine a way! "

"Well, don't worry, just think of a way slowly!" Lin Zhao also knew that some things were not easy to achieve.What's more, there is still a lot of information and references missing, and we will make a long-term plan after returning to Bianjing.

"That's right, think about it in the long run!" Di Qing couldn't help sighing, the road to reset was indeed more complicated and difficult than imagined.

Lin Zhaodao: "In the next two months, we should focus on river governance, so as not to become the target of public criticism again. As long as the river governance is successfully completed and the meritorious service is outstanding, many adverse effects will disappear. Anyway, Zhao Xu just killed Han Xianggong recently. He is proud of himself, let him make a fuss in Bianjing first!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In autumn and winter, the Yellow River enters the dry season, which is a good opportunity for river control.

Youdao is God's pity, Xining's four-year winter was not as cold as usual, but relatively very warm.Even the Yellow River has never been frozen, and the cement used to build the embankment will not freeze due to the cold.There is no delay in the various projects of river control, and all can be carried out as usual.

Such a situation can be said to be a godsend opportunity.

At the same time, the change of Wen Xianggong's attitude is also an important aspect.Historically, Wen Yanbo was extremely disapproving of the use of tools such as the Iron Claw Dragon and Junchuan Pagoda, and even opposed and disdained them a lot.It is a pity that many effective tools fail to function for some reason.

This time, due to the appearance of Lin Zhao and a series of coincidental events, Wen Yanbo cooperated very well with Lin Shilang's actions, and everything went smoothly.The most rare thing is that the weather is also so cooperative, it can be said that the right time, place and people are harmonious, everything is so harmonious, and it is rare to go smoothly.

Many people couldn't help admiring, Lin Shilang is really lucky, how come he came to control the river, even God came to help?Could it be that it was a divine help?
Lin Zhao smiled lightly. It seems that the warm winter phenomenon has existed since ancient times. It must be the El Niño phenomenon that occurred in the eastern Pacific Ocean!It's just a coincidence that I caught up with him, so it's really luck!
By the way, after the El Niño phenomenon occurs, the temperature in the Western Pacific will be higher than usual, and the precipitation will be less.This winter is so warm, so the next year's rainfall will be even rarer. In this age of relying on the sky, the result will be self-evident.

drought!

drought!

It should be a more serious drought than the spring and summer of the fourth year of Xining. The Song Dynasty really had a bad fate!There are powerful enemies outside, the frontiers are never peaceful, and the country is not peaceful either. It is rare to have a good year!In the past few years in ancient times, there were either floods or droughts, and earthquakes were added from time to time.

The court of the Song Dynasty was struggling to deal with it, and it was not bad to be able to support it. However, due to the factors of the times, disaster relief and prevention were worse after all, and the people who suffered were always the common people.

Lin Zhao fell silent. If there is a drought in the coming year, what will happen?Drought was a major event in ancient times. In the era when people relied on food and agriculture as their foundation, this was a matter related to the stability of the country and the situation in the court.What will this matter do to you?Or can you do something meaningful for yourself?
Lin Zhao was meditating secretly, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he thought of the legendary Bianjing gate official again.Drought is coming, so should his picture also be prepared?
