When Zhao Zhongyu returned to his residence, Zhao Ji and Zhao Diantanzhong immediately came out to welcome him.
With Zhao Hanzhang's relationship, Zhao Zhongyu's treatment was the best among the Jin officials. Not only were his sons and advisers still there, but also his stewards and guards.
It's like being under heavy supervision... 5
Zhao Zhongyu entered the room with a sullen face. Zhao Ji and Tan Zhong followed silently. Zhao Dian glanced around at the Huns soldiers who were sending Zhao Zhongyu back, but did not follow him, but stayed at the door.
As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Ji hurriedly asked: "Father, what did the general say?"
What Zhao Zhongyu couldn't hear the most now was the word "general", and the person who said it was his son. His anger was instantly ignited, and he asked angrily: "Which general are you asking about? Is it Gou Xi who surrendered, or Liu who captured us?"
Cong?"
Zhao Ji's face turned red and he lowered his head, but he was still unconvinced, "Father, we have been captured now. You still miss Zhao and Zhao Hanzhang, but do they miss you?"
Zhao Zhongyu sneered, "You are alive now because of the power of the Zhao family and Zhao Hanzhang. Otherwise, you, Lu Zuo and others would have been killed long ago."
When Yuncheng was captured, Zhao Zhongyu was in the palace, but Zhao Ji was outside the palace. He was much healed from his injuries. With Zhao Hanzhang gone, there were wars everywhere and no one controlled him.
Zhao Hanzhang's grievances accumulated continuously during his time left him nowhere to vent, so he went to drink and have fun with his friends, and complained about Zhao Hanzhang.
After a night of singing and singing, while I was sleeping peacefully, the Huns army invaded Yuncheng, broke into the wine shop, killed people, and looted. They, the noble children of the aristocratic families, were cut down like servants of actors. Only the good-looking women could survive.
Zhao Jin was able to survive because he shouted that he was Zhao Hanzhang's uncle.
At that time, all the people in the building, regardless of high or low, were killed.
He was able to be escorted to Zhao Zhongyu because of Zhao Hanzhang.
If it weren't for Zhao Hanzhang's influence, he would have been appointed to Uncle Cai without any authority, and even if he was lucky enough to survive, he would still be living in a sheepfold with other low-ranking ministers and nobles.
Thinking that the future was uncertain, and life and death were uncertain, Zhao Zhongyu became a little irritable. He looked at his son with a heavy gaze, still not trusting him very much. After driving him out, he discussed with Tan Zhong, "The emperor refuses to commit suicide. Liu
Cong probably wants to threaten Hanzhang with us."
When Tan Zhong heard this, he sighed and said, "Everyone is afraid of death. This is human nature. What is my lord going to do?"
Zhao Zhongyu said: "I can't escape, but sir, you can give it a try."
He said: "Zu Ti is from Hanzhang. You try to contact him. It would be best if you can save the emperor. If you can't save the emperor, run away if you can. If you are lucky enough to see Sanniang, ask her to take care of her."
Take care of the Zhao family, and Dalang and his siblings."
Tan Zhong responded with tears in his eyes.
Zhao Zhongyu and the others were closely guarded, and their life and death depended on heaven, so they were very free every day.
Zhao Zhongyu was occasionally dragged to banquets, and was ridiculed and ridiculed by the Huns together with Emperor Jin. Like Zhao Ji, no one dragged him out to humiliate him, and he was very relaxed, but he was also very uncomfortable.
It's okay if he doesn't go out of the small courtyard where they live. Once he goes out, everyone can look at him with contempt. Even the servants can humiliate and despise him.
So Zhao Ji felt very sad.
But his discomfort was not one-tenth that of Zhao Zhongyu and other Jin officials.
They were also humiliated, but they were able to be humiliated with a normal expression. What they couldn't bear was that Emperor Jin was humiliated by the Huns in front of them.
Seeing their king being teased and scolded by the Huns, the Jin ministers felt their hearts being gnawed at them. It was only then that they realized how right it was for Zhou Chang to commit suicide.
Some Jin ministers also began to seek death, but they were not willing to die like this, so they began to think of ways to unite with the captured soldiers in an attempt to escape with the emperor.
Some people also came to Zhao Zhongyu quietly, "I have an official who surrendered Gou Xi. Recently he sent someone to write to me quietly, saying that Gou Xi brothers and Wang Zan are planning to rebel. Why don't we ally with him?"
When Zhao Zhongyu heard that it was Gou Xi, he looked disgusted and said, "General Gou is no longer the general of the past. Do you think he can get out?"
"I think it's okay. Shi Le was rampant in Hebei back then.
The state was defeated by Gou Xi."
"That was General Gou of the past, not today," Zhao Zhongyu said: "If he had still had the ambition he had back then, he would not have surrendered to Shi Le a month ago. He has been spoiled in the past two years and will definitely not be able to succeed in his plans."
He also said Wang Zan, "Although he is loyal, he has no strategy, let alone his peers. If you want to provoke Liu Cong to kill His Majesty and us, I will follow you, but if it is just to save yourself, I advise you to stay away from them."
.”
The other party was unhappy, "Why would I want to provoke Liu Cong to kill His Majesty?"
The emperor could commit suicide or die on the battlefield, but he could not be captured and killed unjustly. Then who would be willing to believe that Jin still had a chance to rise.
In a company, if employees cannot see a future in it, they will definitely quit.
Although the road ahead is dim now, there is still a glimmer of hope. The Jin ministers who are accustomed to following the wind and waves will continue to stay in the pit, and Jin will not be wiped out all at once.
Zhao Hanzhang was still a minister of the Jin in name, and there were many loyal ministers under her rule. Zhao Zhongyu was also afraid that they would be sad and disappointed and join the Huns, so he would never let the Huns kill the emperor.
The emperor can commit suicide, but cannot be killed after being captured.
We still have to establish another emperor. I wonder if someone has been found outside?
Zhao Ming is looking for him. Although Zhao Hanzhang said that she will not establish another emperor, he still has to find a clan to hold in his hands, so that he can attack when he advances and defend when he retreats.
Many people are looking for it. Inside and outside the battlefield, the clouds are turbulent and no one can see clearly the future hidden in the clouds.
The governors who had promised well in Yuncheng that they would send troops to support could not return. Even the governor of Guangzhou, Wang Dun, ran away. Moreover, he took Guangzhou's soldiers and food and grass with him and went directly to Xuzhou to escort King Langya.
He fled to Yangzhou with his relatives from the Wang clan.
Soon after the news of Emperor Jin's capture came out, there were rumors among the people that all the descendants of Emperor Yan died in Yuncheng, even the prince died, the emperor was captured, and no member of the clan came out alive.
Therefore, the governor of Yangzhou, the governor of Guangzhou and the governor of Xu wrote a letter asking King Langya to be the leader of the alliance, to command the affairs of the whole country and organize the allied forces to resist the Huns.
Director Wang and King Langya said: "Zhao Hanzhang now dominates the Central Plains, and her attitude is of vital importance. Why don't you, Your Majesty, send a letter to her to obtain her consent, and then make her deputy governor to take charge of matters in the North."
This is to separate the north and the south, and they will control the male side first.
King Langya has the convenience of status. He is a member of the clan and is the leader of the alliance. He is more legitimate than Zhao Hanzhang, but in terms of power and reputation, King Langya is far inferior to Zhao Hanzhang.
Therefore, King Langya felt guilty.
However, Director Wang said: "Your Majesty has the Wang family, and I, the Wang family, are willing to do everything we can to help your Majesty."
King Langya suppressed his guilty conscience and wrote a sincere letter to Zhao Hanzhang according to Director Wang's instructions.
