Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 614 Killing the Emperor ([-])

The whole process is a long story, but from the sudden attack by Yufeng with two white crows, to the death of the emperor, the emperor Yuxi was taken by Yufeng, and the other two white crows escaped with one death and one serious injury, it was only four or five breaths. .Zhao Guangyi on the opposite side of the huge gap came to plot against and kill his brother, but seeing his brother's head flying up, his body was still shocked, and he paused for a long time before ordering to release the arrow.

At this time, the two hundred Ouchi guards and ministers such as Lu Duoxun and Shen Yilun had already separated. Under Zhao Guangyi's instruction, the archers only shot at the Ouchi guards, not Shen Yilun and Lu Duoxun.

At this time, the difference between the fifty assassins and fifty swordsmen led by Bai Canghai and Bai Zixuan and the nearly one hundred real Ouchi guards was revealed.When Bai Canghai and Bai Zixuan gave an order, the killers and swordsmen dodged or knocked the flying arrows into the air, while rushing down the steep slope where the seriously injured white crow escaped in front of the Jade Emperor Summit.But the nearly one hundred guards screamed that they wanted to avenge the emperor and be buried. They didn't even think about running away, and they were all shot to death on the spot.

After ten breaths, Bai Canghai and Bai Zixuan led more than 30 assassins and 20 swordsmen who survived by chance to escape down the steep slope, out of the range of the longbowmen.Zhao Guangyi, Pan Mei, and Xu Fangyi couldn't help frowning, and let Bai Canghai and Bai Zixuan escape with these killers and swordsmen. From now on, they will live in fear anytime and anywhere.

At this time, on the top of the Jade Emperor, many ministers and eunuchs were already paralyzed from fright, and several court ladies even crawled on the ground crying in a low voice. People who were clever or had already planned the scene before them rushed to Zhao Guangyi knelt down and shouted his allegiance.

But Zhao Guangyi ignored them at this time, and ordered Pan Mei and Xu Fangyi to lead more than 2000 longbowmen and spies down the mountain ahead of time to return to Beijing.When only he, the [-] expert guards led by Xuesha, and Wang Zhutong were left, he looked at Yufeng on another mountain and said, "The great elder has made such a great contribution, and this king will not treat him badly." The elders and the church. The previous agreement between the church and the king will naturally be implemented one by one."

Yufeng's face was gloomy at this time, although so far, the rebellion had been successful, and the Emperor Yuxi had also fallen into his hands, instead of directly falling into Zhao Guangyi's hands.But their temple lost too much this time, the five hundred masters accounted for [-]% of the masters in the temple, and now they are all dead, including the sixth elder Wu Batian and the eighth elder, and also lost a white crow , the life and death of another white crow is also uncertain.

Yufeng took a deep breath and temporarily put the killing intent and depression in his mind behind him. Now that the matter has come to this point, he can only maximize the interests of himself and the church. Everything has been planned, so he said without thinking deeply: "His Royal Highness Jin, in order to guarantee the previous agreement between the prince and my Holy Church, His Highness might as well send the eldest son Zhao Heng to the chief helm of my Holy Church as a guest."

Xue Shadang even shouted: "Presumptuous..."

However, after Zhao Guangyi's expression changed several times, he waved his hand to interrupt Xuesha's words, and said to Yufeng: "If the eldest son of the king is not by my side, and the king becomes the emperor, I am afraid that the officials in the court will have a lot of criticism. Therefore, the king can Let the second son go to the main helm of your holy hall to be a guest, and this king will soon become the emperor of Song Dynasty, and Jinkou Yuyan, a word will naturally be nine tripods, and now you can hand over the emperor's jade seal to this king."

Yufeng smiled slightly and said: "It's just as the prince said. However, don't worry, the prince will return to Kaifeng, and after the young prince hands it over to his subordinates, the jade seal will be presented as a gift, and it will not affect the prince's ascension to the throne."

Hai Dongqing, who was supposed to report to Li Junhao in Kaifeng, disappeared after reporting to Cao Wei at the mountain stream behind Yuhuangding in Baiyun Mountain that day, so what exactly happened at Yuhuangding is four hundred miles away in Kaifeng. Li Junhao and Hu Sanguang didn't know that there was a mistake in the plan to lure the snake out, and ten thousand Tibetan soldiers hid in the back mountain for three more days before moving the cave out day and night.Not to mention the news that His Majesty the Emperor has fallen.They don't know all of this.

However, this did not prevent Hu Sanguang, Li Junhao and Cao Bin from feeling that something was wrong and taking some measures.

However, the emperor is already dead, and some measures are actually of little use. The real key lies in whether the emperor's two sons can survive well.

Wei Wangfu, study room.

Zhao Dezhao's face was pale, looking at the two corpses on the ground with lingering fear on his face, he turned deeply to the side. When the emperor was on his west tour, he disguised his identity and rushed back to Kaifeng in secret. Zhao Pu, the former prime minister of the Song Dynasty who was hiding in the Wei Palace, bowed deeply. , Said: "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for saving your life."

Zhao Pu didn't wait for Zhao Dezhao to use up all the gifts, he quickly helped Zhao Dezhao up, and said: "Your Highness, you don't need to thank me, I just acted according to His Majesty's secret order."

Zhao Dezhao was startled when he heard the words, and said: "Mr. Zhao means that the emperor has long expected that someone will assassinate this king."

Zhao Pu secretly sighed in his heart: Wei Wang's talent is really too bad.But there was a slight smile on his face, he nodded and said: "My lord is wise, His Majesty has indeed expected what happened just now. Moreover, His Majesty also knows that these two assassins were sent by King Jin."

Zhao Dezhao's face was livid, but then he thought of something, his face changed drastically, and he said, "King Jin...why did he want to kill me? Could it be... Could it be that he wants to rebel? No, King Jin is probably going to do something to his father. .”

Zhao Pu thought to himself that it was not hopeless, and that being the emperor was too smart, it was not a good thing for him to want a courtier who was under one man and above tens of thousands.I heard that the little prince Zhao Defang is extremely intelligent, especially under Ye Chen's training, it is not easy at such a young age. If he is allowed to be the emperor, there will be no way for a courtier like me to survive.

Thinking of this, Zhao Pu said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, since Your Majesty has already expected that the King of Jin will rebel, he will naturally take precautions. Maybe His Majesty's western tour was just to lure snakes out."

Zhao Dezhao's expression froze, and then he felt that this was inappropriate, and exaggeratedly let out a sigh of relief, and said, "This is good, this is good."

Zhao Pu hesitated for a moment, looked deeply at Zhao Dezhao, and said, "It's just that there are contingencies in this world, so His Highness needs to make preparations early."

Zhao Dezhao's heartbeat couldn't help but began to speed up, but he still forced himself to say calmly: "Mr. Zhao means..."

Zhao Pu said solemnly: "Although the old man is no longer the prime minister, there are many disciples in the court. The Privy Council envoy Cao Bin and the ministers are inseparable. Many ministers can also listen to the old man. Therefore, the old man thinks that His Highness should enter the palace to do Town, if His Majesty returns smoothly, everything will be fine. However, if there is news that His Majesty has not returned, and King Jin returns to Kaifeng, he will immediately order the closure of the imperial city as the eldest son of the emperor. As for other things, the old man will naturally come forward to help His Highness do it .”

The end of summer in the fourth year of Kaibao was hotter than usual.The first autumn rain has not arrived yet, and the heat of March is smoldering in the residential streets, and the wind does not blow away, making the city of Kyoto like a quilt on the top of a kang.

When the residents of Kyoto wake up in the morning, they will feel that their bodies are covered with extremely high concentration of sweat residue. uncomfortable.

The cicadas were happy, and screamed desperately, but instead of the hoarseness and sorrow of life in the late summer and early autumn of last year, it was a kind of high-pitched voice with spare energy and ease.Cicada, Cicada's voice, one after another among the clumps of green trees inside and outside the city of Kyoto.It disturbs people's sleepiness and laughs at people's embarrassment.

A branch of green bamboo suddenly parted the leaves and stabbed accurately at a certain place on the trunk.Brother Cicada, who was singing loudly, only felt his eyes go blank, his face was covered with something, and he could no longer open his mouth.In desperation, I wanted to use my tentacles to pick and pull.Unexpectedly, even the tentacles were glued together, and they could no longer break free.It had no choice but to sigh in its heart, thinking that it really shouldn't be too early to be proud.

The little prince Zhao Defang looked at the tree proudly.He returned and took back the soft and soft bamboo pole, picked off the gluten-bound cicada, threw it into the big cloth bag beside him, and was about to continue to attack.Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the little beauty sitting on a bamboo chair by the courtyard wall to enjoy the shade, and hurriedly took the cold drink from the eunuch next to her, ran over and handed it to the girl.The latter was not polite, took it and drank it, making the eunuchs next to him who were watching the little prince sweat profusely slander, and at the same time quickly brought a second bowl of herbal tea to the little prince.

"Shui'er, look at how many cockroaches I caught today." Zhao Defang drank the herbal tea in one gulp, and tore off the cloth bag to show the girl as if making a contribution.

That's right, this young girl who has gradually revealed her beauty is none other than Shui'er. On the day the emperor left Kaifeng on his west tour, she entered the palace to accompany the little prince.

Shui'er lay on the bamboo chair and looked sideways, frowned, and said, "How many times have I said this? If you want to stick your wings, you have to stick them to that cicada's head... You're so stupid. Forget it, don't do it." Play it, let these dead eunuchs stick to it!"

Zhao Defang didn't care about Shui'er's rudeness at all, and the eunuchs and maids beside her were already used to it, Zhao Defang turned around and gave a few words, and soon a dozen or so eunuchs rushed to stick to Zhichong.

At this time, a eunuch came to say that Xiangfu Palace outside the palace had sent someone, saying that there was something urgent to see Miss Shui'er.Shui'er has been worrying about Ye Chen disappearing these days, when he heard that there was an urgent matter in the mansion, he hurriedly told Zhao Defang and hurried to the palace gate to meet the visitor.But before leaving, she did not forget to tell the four beautiful poison guards who were brought into the palace by her: "Before I come back, don't let anyone get close to the prince."

The four Jiangnan beauties who looked weak did not dare to neglect, they bent down and agreed softly, and then each took charge of a direction, staring at the surroundings, even if a first-class master tried to approach, they were confident to poison him to death.
