A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television

The emperor was in a state of panic, but the emperor was still alive.

One morning in the autumn of 1120, Emperor Huizong of Song was attending the morning court. In the hall, civil and military officials were standing on the left and right, each holding a memorial and a court tablet.

At this moment, an official stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I have a report."

"What does Li Aiqing want to report?"

"Your Majesty, the Western Army has just sent back news that the Yangwei Army in the north has conquered Xixia. In the past two years, the Yangwei Army has been fighting and seizing cities and territories everywhere. It is very likely that they will invade the Song Dynasty next. Please make preparations early and deploy troops."

"Your Majesty, I suggest that we send envoys to the north first to contact Lu Cheng, the commander of the Yangwei Army. After all, he is the son-in-law of our Song Dynasty. He should not attack the king with his subjects."

"I agree. The Yangwei Army dominated the north and almost annexed all the land of the Liao Kingdom. Now it has conquered Xixia, but the son-in-law has never established a country and proclaimed himself emperor. Maybe he does not want to be an enemy of you and my Song Dynasty."

"Li Yushi, what are you talking about? Lu Cheng is ambitious. , and is good at disguising himself. He never showed any of his true colors in front of Your Majesty. Now that the situation is like this, how could he not harm our Song Dynasty? In my opinion, Your Majesty should make a decision early and take the initiative to send troops as soon as possible to prevent trouble before it happens. "

"Your Majesty, the Yangwei Army is strong and unstoppable. Who should our Song Dynasty choose as the general? How many troops should we send?"

Song Huizong listened to the discussions below and felt a headache. Then he looked at Gao Qiu standing below and said, "Lord Gao, you didn't win the battle against Liangshan before. Didn't you say that you would use your merits to make up for your sins? This time, why don't you go out and lead the Imperial Guards to the north to guard against the Yangwei Army? "

"Your Majesty, I am not very knowledgeable and have little ability to lead troops. I am afraid that I will delay Your Majesty's important event. "

Just when the ministers in the court were arguing endlessly, a familiar figure suddenly came out of the hall.

After seeing the man's appearance, everyone in the hall was a little panicked. Song Huizong on the dragon throne also felt nervous, and then hurriedly pretended to be calm: "Lu... Shouxin, why did you come back suddenly?"

Lu Cheng bowed to Song Huizong and said: "Your Majesty, I haven't come to the capital to greet you for a long time. Today I came here specially to greet you on behalf of Yu Pan and on behalf of our daughter to her grandfather."

When Zhao Ji heard this, he thought Lu Cheng really came to greet you, but then he thought about it and remembered that Lu Cheng had just walked into the Golden Palace so openly, and the palace guards and eunuchs on duty outside did not inform him in advance, which was a bit abnormal.

The ministers in the hall also looked at Lu Cheng with suspicion at this moment, wondering what the son-in-law was up to.

However, seeing that Lu Cheng came alone without a sword or a gun, Song Huizong still had a glimmer of hope in his heart: "Shouxin, I have said before that when you and Yupan have a child, bring it to the palace for me to see, and I will definitely reward it well. You haven't come yet, I..."

Before Song Huizong finished speaking, Lu Cheng interrupted him directly: "Since the emperor wants to reward, I wonder if I can ask for it myself?"

Song Huizong's heart tightened: "Shouxin, what do you want?"

Lu Cheng laughed and stepped forward: "I want the dragon throne that the emperor sits on, and I want the vast territory of the Song Dynasty!"

When these words came out, all the ministers were shocked, and Song Huizong was also shocked. He pointed at Lu Cheng, but he couldn't speak for a while.

Several ministers on the side immediately jumped out, especially Gao Qiu, who was the first to show himself: "How dare you! Lu Cheng, in the Golden Palace, in front of His Majesty, you dare to speak wildly, treason, and you deserve to be killed!"

Grand Master Tong Guan also roared: "Where are the Golden Palace warriors? Hurry up and take down this traitor!"

Facing the angry eyes of the surrounding ministers, the Golden Palace warriors strode closer, and Lu Cheng just clapped his hands, and saw a group of people rushing in quickly outside the hall, each holding a bow and crossbow, shooting directly, and those Golden Palace warriors were shot to the ground before they approached Lu Cheng.

Immediately afterwards, a blast of arrows was fired outside the hall, and a moment later, blasts of arrows were fired from all directions in the entire Bianjing City.

Before the civil and military officials in the hall could react, they heard several loud explosions from outside.

In an instant, there was a panic in the Golden Palace, and Song Huizong almost fell off the dragon throne.

At this moment, Lu Cheng suddenly clapped his hands and said loudly: "Don't panic, isn't it just a rebellion to make the government move? It's no big deal."

While speaking,

Lu Cheng had already arrived in front of the throne and patted his cheap father-in-law: "My Lord, how about you give way first?"

Song Huizong was shocked and looked at the dead warriors of the Golden Palace below, as well as those outsiders who had sneaked into the palace at some point. His face was pale and his heart was already cold. He wanted to get up trembling all over, but his body shook and he almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Lu Cheng helped him and grabbed his shoulders, like holding a little chicken, and casually lifted Song Huizong to the side.

After that, Mr. Lu sat on the dragon throne with a big horse and a golden sword, looking at the civil and military officials below.

Gao Qiu and Tong Guan, who had just stood up and scolded Lu Cheng, had retreated to the officials without knowing when, bowed their heads and kept silent.

However, one of the military officers stood up and shouted loudly: "Lu Cheng, the emperor has treated you with great kindness, appointed you to a high position, granted you generous salary, and even married the princess to you. How dare you repay kindness with enmity? Even if you seize the country, you are still a traitor!"

Without waiting for Lu Cheng to say anything, one of the civil officials immediately stood up and pointed at the military officer and cursed: "What do you know, a common man? Zhao Ji did not practice benevolent governance, but was greedy for pleasure, so that the people were living in misery. General Lu first destroyed the Liao Kingdom, then destroyed the Western Xia, unified the north, and took back the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. With such great achievements, why can't he sit on the throne?"

There is no shortage of surrenderists and fence-sitters in this world. There were loyal officials in the Song Dynasty, and there were such flatterers.

Lu Cheng smiled slightly, turned his head to look at the civil servant who stood up to speak for him, and asked casually: "What's your name?"

The man immediately bowed and knelt on the ground: "General, I am Qin Hui."

Hearing this, Lu Cheng waved his hand and said: "Kill him."

Qin Hui raised his head quickly when he heard this, thinking that Lu Cheng was going to kill the general who jumped out to sing the opposite tune, but he never thought that three crossbow arrows would accurately shoot at him.

Qin Hui, who was imagining that he would be a high official with a promising future, was still smiling ingratiatingly, but was pierced through the forehead, throat and heart by three crossbow arrows, and fell to the ground on the spot.

The general was also startled, and then looked at Lu Cheng on the dragon throne with a surprised face.

Lu Cheng stood up, took a step forward, and looked at the ministers below: "Thinking back to the past, Emperor Taizu of this dynasty wore the yellow robe, bullied orphans and widows, and seized the world of the Chai family, which led to the 160-year-old country of the Song Dynasty. Since Zhao Kuangyin can be the emperor, why can't this general sit on this dragon throne?

Since I started my career, I have destroyed the Liao Kingdom, pacified the Western Xia, unified the north, and made the people of the Central Plains no longer suffer from the troubles of the north. Let my Han sons no longer have to bow their heads and pay tribute year after year. Why can't I be the emperor? Who can stand up and tell me why?"

The ministers below were silent for a while, and you could hear a pin drop in the hall for a while...
