Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 599
As soon as these words came out, Song Emperor Zhao Kuangyin was shocked, and even Zhao Pu, who was full of pearls and sophisticated healing skills, didn't know what he was talking about, as if he had fallen into the fog.

Empress Dowager Du said again: "Chai's life will not last forever. It is said that he is a child of a few years old. The officials are eccentric and the soldiers are not attached. This has created the opportunity for you to add a yellow robe and proclaim yourself emperor in the Zen Dynasty. If Chai Rong is not Pass it on to his son, if he had grown-up brothers and passed on the throne to them, would you be able to have today?"

After talking, Zhao Kuangyin nodded frequently, and hurriedly said: "What the mother said is very true, I don't know what the mother has taught, please show me."

Empress Dowager Du Qiu: "You, Guangyi, and Guangmei are all born to me. When you are a hundred years old, they should be passed on to your younger brother Guangyi, who will be passed on to Guangmei after Guangyi, and then passed on to your son Dezhao after Guangmei. In this way, the new emperors from generation to generation are all grown-ups, so we can keep our Zhao family prosperous forever. The world is as far as the vastness, and it is the blessing of the community to be able to establish a long-term emperor."

Zhao Kuangyin was originally a filial, benevolent and extremely loyal person, so he naturally obeyed his mother's words.When the queen mother finished speaking, she touched her head to the ground and swore in tears: "The son only obeys the mother's order, and dares to disobey the mother's teaching."

Empress Dowager Du looked at her son lovingly, and said, "In this case, please ask Secretary Zhao to record it and sign it as evidence. You can hide it in a gold cabinet and wait for you to open it after a hundred years. This matter is only for the three of us." You know, don't reveal a word to anyone, so as not to cause extra complications and cause confusion."

Empress Dowager Du has always attached great importance to Zhao Pu, treating him as her own family, and always calls his original official position "Secretary Zhao" when meeting him.

After listening to Queen Mother Du's words, Zhao Pu felt that this violated the practice of successive dynasties that the throne was passed on to the eldest son, and that it may not be a blessing after a long time, so he deeply disapproved.But as the queen mother and the emperor have agreed upon, he naturally dared not say anything more as a courtier, so he had to record this method of succession, signed his own name, and handed it to Zhao Kuangyin to hide in the golden cabinet as a proof for a long time .This is the "Alliance of the Golden Chamber", or the "Three Biography of the Covenant", which has been widely circulated by later generations.

However, in recent years, he has smelled a strange smell from Guangyi. He always feels that he has some small tricks behind his back, and he has begun to be alienated from himself. Zhao Kuangyin has been aware of the power that is rapidly expanding around him from the beginning, and then later. The vigilance is now worrying.

But his character of emphasizing love and righteousness made him unable to decide what to do?He was afraid that he was oversensitive and committed the common fault of many emperors in history who were suspicious and jealous, and accidentally injured his own brother.Therefore, he felt very troubled.

Worry and worry entangled him, and he felt like an old cow falling into a dry well, with all his energy but nowhere to go.In order to get rid of this irritability, he decided to leave Kaifeng for a period of time and go to Luoyang, Xijing, to relax. Besides, there is no major event in the court.

Luoyang is his hometown and the place where he grew up.In the city where he was born and raised, there is his former residence in Jiama Ying; there is a place where he wields a gun, dances a stick, rides a horse and shoots an arrow when he was young, and there is a horse with a mythical legend, which once deeply attracted his childhood. The stone horse with the heart; there is a place where he fights crickets with his bare-bottomed friends and "stands in formation".In short, his childhood dreams are floating everywhere there, and this dream is so warm, so sweet, so grotesque and colorful.

Zhao Kuangyin is in his 40s. According to the saying of this era, he has crossed middle age and moved towards old age.At this age, like a normal person, a sense of nostalgia, of homesickness, will haunt him constantly.

Originally, he was imprisoned because of his status as the emperor, so that he did not dare to leave Kaifeng at will, but Wang Zhaosu's words a few days ago broke the confinement in his heart.Therefore, he wants to go back to his hometown, have fun for a while, and get rid of the depression in his heart, especially he plans to call his brother Zhao Guangyi, so as to take this opportunity to resolve the conflict that has arisen between the two of them with brotherhood gap.

Ye Chen galloped across the mountains, feeling at ease, advancing towards the Luohe River.

He sensed that Zhang Wumeng was chasing him more than ten miles behind, and the feeling was very clear, without the slightest blur, even clearer than the previous few times.

The mind of the Taiyi Sutra circulates in the body, like the cycle of yin and yang in the way of heaven, the true qi in the body goes and comes back, the anode is yin, and the cathode is yang. It is as relaxed as a bird flying in the sky, and as relaxed as a fish playing in the water, running for nearly fifty miles. , still didn't feel the slightest tiredness, and the joy was indescribable.But he can be sure that he has not been promoted to the half-step innate realm.And the overall strength has not improved too much, and he is still no match for Zhang Wumeng and Lou Yanming, who are half-step innate powerhouses.Of course, it is not so easy for half-step innate powerhouses to kill him.

At this moment, he faintly sensed that Yu Daoxiang was chasing up, and his heart was filled with excitement, full of deep love for Yu Daoxiang.

"Maybe we can kill Zhang Wumeng together with Yu'er." Ye Chen thought to himself.At this moment, he was completely unaware that he had been controlled by the black blood Gu mother.This is exactly the horror of the black blood Gu mother, and Ye Chen used it to control other people through Gu insects before.

While thinking, Zhang Wumeng chased Li Xu again.

Ye Chen deliberately let Zhang Wumeng get closer, because he wanted to make the other party have the illusion that he was much better than him in lightness kung fu.

Yu Daoxiang was not alone, he was accompanied by Lian Jicheng, deputy envoy of the Assassination Department of Huaxia Weifu, leading ten gold-medal assassins and five sword slaves, Bai Canghai stayed behind in Huaxia Weifu so he did not follow.

Yu Daoxiang is actually not very sure whether Ye Chen is controlled by the Black Blood Gu Mother, but if Ye Chen never returns to Kaifeng's home, then it is really very likely that he is controlled by the Black Blood Gu Mother.Therefore, she had to find Ye Chen, restrain him, and find a way to get rid of the black blood Gu mother.

Under the starry sky, Luoshui appeared in front of her, continuing her journey to the east in the turbulent flow that has passed for an unknown number of years, silently ignoring the grievances and grievances that happened on both sides of her.No matter how cities turn into ruins, fertile fields turn into wasteland, and fertile fields turn into scorched earth.

Ye Chen's expression was indifferent, and he sped towards Luoshui with no joy.

A group of people rode horses and carts, traveling westward along Guanyi Road.

The sky is blue, the clouds are light, the trees are verdant, and the water is gurgling.On both sides of the road, the endless wheat fields are already golden yellow, the breeze is blowing, and the waves of wheat are rippling, a scene of a bumper harvest in sight.

At the beginning of June in the fourth year of Kaibao, Zhao Kuangyin drove away from Kaifeng and went to Luoyang, Xijing for a tour.

This trip from Beijing to the west is different from leaving Kaifeng several times in the past. He did not let Jin Wang Zhao Guangyi stay in Kaifeng to act as an agent of the government, but let the emperor's younger brother follow him to Luoyang.But let his third brother, Zhao Guangmei, governor of Kaifeng, stay in Kaifeng with Prime Minister Xue Juzheng, and Privy Council envoy Cao Bin to preside over the government.

On the same day, as the imperial court sent a large number of civil servants to serve in states and counties in the south of the Yangtze River, the remnants of the Southern Tang court were completely wiped out by Pan Mei. Pan Mei led a hundred soldiers to go north to Kaifeng to report on their duties.

Zhao Kuangyin didn't lead a large group of people, nor did he have flags and umbrella fans, but he dressed lightly and followed.Only Mrs. Huarui, King Zhao Guangyi of Jin, Lu Duoxun and other close officials, dozens of eunuchs and maids and two thousand guards of the Imperial Guard, and Xu Fangyi, the intelligence officer of the Huaxia Weifu, personally led the Huaxia Weifu's staff. Five hundred Huaxia Guards and nearly a thousand spies lurking in the dark were also accompanying to protect Zhao Kuangyin's safety.

Zhao Kuangyin rode on a tall horse and walked slowly.He looked around and saw busy farmers making various preparations before the wheat harvest on the small road in the field, carrying loads and pushing carts, coming and going.A long-lost earth fragrance and the unique fragrance of ripe wheat drilled into his nostrils.He opened his arms, took a deep breath of the fresh air in the field, and exhaled it lightly, sweeping away the depressed air that had been pent up in the palace all day.Zhao Kuangyin was clearly excited.He hissed lightly, reined in the horse's head, dismounted swiftly, and walked to the edge of the wheat field. He took off a stalk of wheat, weighed it, and said joyfully to the left and right: "It seems that this year is another year." Good times, this is the heaven bless me Song."

Jin Wang Zhao Guangyi immediately stepped forward and said: "For several years, thanks to your majesty, the farming and mulberry industry has flourished, the warehouses have been filled, and the people have a well-off life. Many states and counties have reported, "There is no sorrow in the field, and there is stagnation in the ridges." Sui. There is nothing in the country, Ou Yu Daan', this is the blessing of my Great Song."

Zhao Kuangyin nodded happily, and couldn't help thinking of the matter that the ministers invited him to be honored a few days ago.

Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, the army has fought south and north, and now it has been connected into a piece, and it has become the real unification of China.

The Song Dynasty has entered another most prosperous period in Chinese history after the Tang Dynasty.The history of frequent wars, turmoil, weakness and poverty has become a permanent past.The national power is strong, the army is far and wide, the people of Li live and work in peace and contentment, and the farming, mulberry, mulberry and commerce are well established. In 14 years, Zhao Kuangyin created a new era of prosperity with his own hands.

Faced with this great success, the ruling and opposition parties cheered and praised.The ministers of the DPRK and the central government and the government from all over the country have come forward one after another, asking Zhao Kuangyin to be honored for his extraordinary achievements.Zhao Kuangyin received dozens of memorials every day, each of which used the most beautiful rhetoric, the most emotional language, and the most sincere blessings. , Please honor your name.

One of them is from Ludosson's memorandum, with the most detailed examples.It said: Since ancient times, all emperors with outstanding achievements have to add a title before the emperor title, as a symbol of special respect, and it is also the supreme glory declared to future generations.

For example, after Qin Shihuang wiped out the six kingdoms and unified China, he was honored as the Emperor of Thailand, because since ancient times, there have been Emperors of Heaven, Emperors of Earth, and Emperors of Qin, and Emperor Qin is the most honorable.
