Chapter 496: Zhao Changping

After Ma Hong died, Prince Zhao Hongqing had almost no hesitation in bringing the news to the Jinyi Guards to the battlefield ahead.

He also wrote down the causes and consequences of the rebellion.

The Seventh Emperor Zhao Changyun died in the chaos, and the Sixth Emperor Zhao Changping was escorted back to Luoyang by Ma Hong's men.

He is currently being held in the Dongchang dungeon where experts gather.

Xuanzheng Hall.

Zhao Hongqing is handling government affairs.

Queen He Ning came here quietly and brought him a bowl of sweet porridge.

Zhao Hongqing was suddenly alarmed, and quickly stood up and bowed: "Mother, I blame my sons for being so fascinated by the memorial that I didn't know that my mother came here."

He Ning shook his head and said with a smile: "My mother is very happy that you have such diligence, but you must also pay attention to your health."

Zhao Hongqing nodded and asked: "Why is the queen coming here so late?"

He knew his mother's character well and would never come so late just to bring a bowl of sweet porridge.

Except for my father, I have never seen anyone receive this kind of treatment.

Including his biological son.

He Ning smiled and said, "Could it be that when a mother comes to see her son, she has to have something to do before she can come over?"

Zhao Hongqing touched the back of his head, smiled, and said, "My fault is my fault. I hope my mother will forgive me."

He Ning shook his head and smiled, looking at the prince who picked up the sweet porridge and started to drink it. His smile showed the kindness that only a mother can have, "My mother is here today for two things. Old General Ma Hong will be buried tomorrow.

Where do you plan to bury him?"

Zhao Hongqing thought for a while and wondered why: "The emperor's mausoleum has not been built so far. If the old general is buried near the emperor's mausoleum, I am afraid my father will be displeased if he finds out."

He Ning said: "The Queen Mother has a suggestion. The old general's body can be buried in the Wuhun Palace. Isn't it safe?"

The prince said with a sad face: "My father once said that the tablets of dead generals can be enshrined in the Wuhun Palace. As for the corpses, there is no such precedent, empress."

He Ning thought for a while and said: "It doesn't matter. I will be buried in the Wuhun Palace. Even if your father knows about it, he won't have any thoughts of blaming you? Moreover, when the construction of your father's mausoleum begins,

General Cao and Ma will definitely move to the vicinity of the imperial mausoleum."

Zhao Hongqing clasped his fists and said, "Then just follow the mother's wishes."

He Ning was sitting on a chair, with the maid next to her pouring water for her cup of tea.

After taking a sip of tea, she said, "Uncle Liu Huang, how should you deal with it?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hongqing said solemnly: "According to the national law, he should be beheaded. I plan to have the Ministry of Punishment behead him in public at the beginning of next month."

He Ning shook his head, "That's inappropriate."

Zhao Hongqing quickly asked: "Why is this? Is it possible to let him go?"

He Ning said: "Your father, the one thing you hate the most in your life is fighting with the same roommate? After all, it was your father who single-handedly caused the Xuanwu Gate Incident."

Having said this, Zhao Hongqing quickly drove the eunuchs and maids out of the palace, and then bowed deeply to his mother.

He Ning thought it didn't matter and continued to say: "No matter what? Even if he made some big mistake? You can't kill him. After all, he is your sixth uncle. Not only can you not kill him, but you also want to eat and drink him."

Consecrate him, don’t let him be in the prison, send him to the ancestral temple, send a group of masters to control him day and night, by the way, you can destroy his entire body."

Zhao Hongqing wondered: "Why is this, Queen Mother? He is a traitor. If we don't kill him now, we have already done our best to benevolent and righteous. Why should we do this to him? If it hadn't been for him, Old General Ma might not have died."

He Ning took a long breath and said: "You are still too young. Think about it, you are now very polite to an uncle who you have never met and is plotting to rebel, let alone your brothers? Yours

Your father will definitely feel that when you become emperor in the future, you will definitely treat your brothers and sisters well. Ever since your father went off to war, your mother has always felt like there is a big stone in her heart, and she has been worried.

Your good brother King Chu."

Zhao Hongqing frowned and said, "Please don't say such things again, my queen. I believe in Hong Ji. As for what my mother orders, I will do it."

Murong Hening nodded and said: "If you don't have much government affairs on hand now, go and see your sixth uncle first. No matter what displeasure you may have, in short, if this matter is spread,

Being in your father's ears will only do you good and no harm."

Zhao Hongqing nodded solemnly.

He Ning stood up and planned to leave.

When they came to the door and had not yet stepped out of the palace, He Ning said again: "Of course the Queen Mother hopes to see that you two brothers can live in harmony, but your father has been worried that you will have a fight with the same room in the future.

Things are just like your father and his brothers."

After saying this, I left here completely.

Hearing the sound, Zhao Hongqing fell into silence.

After a long while, he said to the eunuch outside the palace: "Come, prepare your horses, go to the Dongchang dungeon."

The eunuch outside the palace immediately bowed and said: "No!"

Less than half an hour later, Zhao Hongqing came to the Dongchang dungeon and met his sixth uncle Zhao Changping, who was now extremely depressed.

Zhao Changping naturally noticed Zhao Hongqing's arrival and said with a smile: "I saw you outside the capital that day. I wonder what the prince is doing here?"

Zhao Hongqing took a deep breath, calmed down the impatience in his heart, and bowed, "My nephew, Zhao Hongqing, has met my sixth uncle."

Zhao Changping sneered and said: "Don't be so pretentious, even if you are pretending in front of others, you can't hide it. Your whole lineage is full of disloyal and unfilial people."

Zhao Hongqing frowned and said, "I wonder what Uncle Six means by this?"

Zhao Changping stood up and said angrily across the wooden fence: "After Emperor Renzong died and the prince succeeded to the throne, it was your father, my good eldest brother, who launched the Xuanwumen Incident, which caused the death of the emperor's relatives in Beijing.

, almost all of them died. To rebel against the prince is to be disloyal, and to kill the elders is to be unfilial. I say that your lineage is unfaithful and unfilial. Is that wrong?"

Looking at Uncle Six who was almost hysterical, Zhao Hongqing felt a little ridiculous. He shook his head and sighed: "If Emperor Ling continues to be in power, or if Uncle Six ascends the throne, can you let my father go? Can you let our family go?

?I’m afraid I can’t? In that case, why does Sixth Uncle need to be so high-sounding and talk nonsense here?”

Zhao Changping squinted his eyes, looked at the current prince, and said mockingly: "You little kid, what the hell do you know? Even back then, we brothers fought to the death, but we never thought about it.

However, one day, I will kill all the brothers, never! But your father, my good brother, Zhao Changqing! He is really poisonous! He took the throne quietly, which really made everyone

unexpected."

Zhao Hongqing said: "The rights and wrongs of the past will be judged by future generations. Uncle Liu believes that if the position of the king of Wei today were replaced by any one of my uncles, would it be possible to develop Wei into what it is today?"

Zhao Changping said disdainfully: "No matter how big the territory is, if the foundation is not strong, sooner or later it will fall apart."

Zhao Hongqing asked with a smile: "Does Uncle Liu naively think that the strength of Wei today is only due to its vast territory?"
