"Good words, good words!" After the song ended, there was a sound of admiration. Even Zhao Zhen and Yelu Hongji nodded frequently. It is really unforgettable to hear such wonderful words tonight.
All the officials asked one after another which great talent composed the song "Magpie Bridge Immortal". Could it be Su Zizhan?
"Unlike this, Su Shi's poetry style is grand and bold, but it is definitely not as lingering and graceful."
"Why don't we just call the musicians and ask?"
So I called the people from the workshop to ask about it, and I found out that it was an old work by Master Chen.
When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that it wasn't that they didn't believe in Chen Ke's ability, but that Chen Ke had stopped writing lyrics for several years, so they didn't even think about him.
"Scholar Chen is really a great talent," even Yelu Yixin couldn't help but praise: "After hearing these words, even a hundred times of steel can be turned into softness." After saying this, he looked at Xiao Feng and said, "Why do you look so bad?
"
Xiao Feng's face was ashen and his fists were clenched tightly, as if he was full of anger. Yelu Yixin asked again, and then he came back to his senses and exhaled a filthy breath: "It's nothing. I'm a rough man and I don't understand this word."
What are the benefits? Can it be eaten or used as a quilt?"
"Oh, he is indeed a rough man." Yelu Yixin turned his head and ignored him.
Xiao Feng secretly gritted his steel teeth and stared at Chen Ke. He never imagined that this bold maniac would dare to have a secret affair with Xiao Guanyin at the Song Dynasty state banquet and treat me like nothing? Don't you know that I am nothing?
Have you seen the first half of this word?
But he didn't dare to say any nonsense, because just yesterday, he saw a carriage on the street. When the carriage passed in front of him, the curtain suddenly lifted, and his wife and two children were sitting inside.
I was so excited that I was about to rush forward, but I saw them with steel knives held on their necks...
Chen Zhongfang kept his word, and indeed on the tenth day, he brought his wife from Nanjing, Liao Kingdom, thousands of miles away, to Bianliang!
For the sake of his wife and children, he could only grit his teeth and swallow. He looked up at Yelu Hongji and saw that the seat was empty...
'Tender love is like water, good times are like dreams, and I can't bear to look at the Magpie Bridge on the way home! If our love lasts for a long time, how can we stay together day and night?'
Xiao Guanyin left the hall under the pretext of changing her clothes. She looked at the stars in the sky and repeatedly chanted in her heart about the second half of the palace that she had only obtained after several years. Her whole body melted into her lover's sweet words.
‘It turns out that there really is a saying in this world: ‘When the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win over countless people in the world.’ Chen Lang, if Nunu has this poem, he will be content in this life...’
But why are tears like broken beads, scattered in the gentle night?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Three days later, the Emperor of the Liao Kingdom returned, and the person accompanying him was actually Zhao Shu, who had now been promoted to the King of Jin. The status of the Lord of Liao was extremely noble, and it was reasonable and reasonable that the next Emperor of the Song Dynasty would send him off.
Moreover, Zhao Zhen also had another intention, which was to let the two young people get along well and cultivate some feelings, which would be of great benefit to the good-neighborly friendship between the two countries in the next few decades.
This time Chen Ke stayed in the capital and Zhao Shu was away, so he had to take charge for him.
But after Zhao Shu left Beijing, he had been feeling uneasy. At first, he thought that when Xiao Guanyin left, he would inevitably feel empty. In order not to affect his judgment, he made up his mind to tell his younger sister what happened honestly.
Because this extremely smart woman can always help you find the direction.
In fact, the younger sister had already guessed his affair with Xiao Guanyin, but she was still very happy to hear her husband confess to her. This shows that there is nothing to hide between the couple... In this era, for women who marry high-ranking officials,
This is already a luxury.
She calmly helped Chen Ke sort out his emotions, but the uneasy feeling still existed, obviously because of something else.
With the meticulous help of his little sister, Chen Ke finally found the source of his uneasiness - it actually originated from Zhao Zonghui's words!
It was the threat he made to himself before leaving that day in front of the Liao embassy: 'This time, Master Chen won again. I hope you will have such good luck next time...'
Chen Zhongfang, who was so audacious that he dared to express his love for the Queen of Liao through poetry in front of the Emperor of Liao, could be intimidated by words. It was the most ridiculous thing in the world!
However, that uneasy feeling did indeed start from that time. Chen Ke had to put aside his contempt and think carefully about the reason behind this threat!
That was because he always subconsciously believed that Zhao Zongshi and others would not give up like this. They still had gang members all over the court and had good relations with the army. It could be said that everything was ready and they would never give up the general offensive just because the east wind didn't come!
If there is no light in the east and light in the west, they will definitely find a way to make a comeback...
Chen Ke couldn't help but worry about Zhao Shu's safety. In the view of him and his comrades, as long as Zhao Shu was safe, he would be sure of victory. All he had to do was wait for that day to come. But Zhao Shu was surrounded by a group of masters led by Xuan Yu
With the bodyguards and two thousand Japanese troops, we can escape even if we encounter the army.
So what else is there to worry about?
"Perhaps your husband has fallen into a misunderstanding." The younger sister thought for a moment and said, "At this time, even if the King of Jin is removed, Zhao Zongshi is just marrying someone else." After the Qianyuan Festival, officials rewarded hundreds of officials with titles.
Those without titles were promoted to one rank. Zhao Shu was promoted from King Qi to King Jin, a prince who was regarded as the crown prince!
"Hmm..." After listening to the younger sister's words, Chen Ke found that his previous attention was entirely focused on Zhao Shu and himself. However, he did not expect that under the trade-off, if the opponent directly fought head-on, he would definitely suffer heavy losses.
In this situation, if it were you, you would either give up, or make a surprise move and make a dangerous move to turn defeat into victory!
Thinking of this, Chen Ke suddenly shivered. He realized that it was Zhao Zongshi who caused Zhao Shu to leave the capital at this moment! If they hadn't exposed Yelu Hongji's whereabouts, the officials would definitely not have allowed King Jin to be his companion.
make.
Why did Zhao Zongshi let Zhao Shu leave the capital? Since he didn't mean to harm him, he must have wanted him to be out of the capital when something happened.
Chen Ke closed his eyes and meditated. He suddenly thought that the previous 'Assassination of Chen Xiliang' and 'Arena Explosion' were most likely deliberately created by the other side to attract their own attention, but in the end they ignored their true purpose!
Thinking about it this way, it suddenly dawned on me. So there is only one fill-in-the-blank question left, what is their plan?!
The couple decided to think hard and then write it down to see if they guessed the same thing.
After drinking some tea, Chen Ke saw what his little sister had written, which were the words "Once the mountain collapses".
The younger sister also saw the four words "Follow the ancestors" written by Chen Ke.
Both of them turned pale because they guessed the same thing!
The succession of the throne in the Song Dynasty is always full of drama. Needless to say, the "sound of candle shadow and ax" of Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, even a genuine prince like Zhenzong was in danger when he ascended the throne!
Although Zhao Guangyi has been strong and in control all his life, the sad thing is that as soon as he died and his bones were still cold, the two closest relatives in his life betrayed him.
One was Wang Jien, the chamberlain who had helped him usurp the throne, and the other was his queen, Li Shi. These two people almost joined forces to destroy the crown prince Zhao Heng... It was really only a thin line.
Perhaps he was addicted to inverting the throne. Wang Jien, the dead eunuch who betrayed Taizu, habitually betrayed him again after the death of Emperor Taizong. He first contacted two accomplices, including Li Changling, the political advisor, and the imperial edict of Hu Dan.
Found the person with the supreme power to dethrone the emperor.
Queen Li!
This is not nonsense. In the Song Dynasty, the person with the most power and the highest status was not His Majesty the Emperor, but the Emperor's wife - the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother Du in the distance, the Queen Mother Liu in the near future, and a series of Queen Mothers in the future.
, almost every queen mother is synonymous with power.
Because the Queen Mother has the power to depose and establish emperors, their sons have to be very filial, otherwise they will be in danger!
Now that Zhao Guangyi is dead, his wife has been promoted to the Queen Mother, and she suddenly became the most powerful person in the Song Dynasty! But because of Queen Mother Li's personal preference... she preferred the eldest son Zhao Yuanzuo to Zhao Heng, so in the third year of Wang Jien's
Under the instigation of others, Zhao Yuanzuo was ready to be made emperor! As for the Crown Prince Zhao Heng, he should do whatever he has to do...
Even with hindsight, the plan of this small group is very likely to succeed. It was only because the prime minister Lu Duan, who is always confused in normal times but not confused in big things, suddenly exerted his force and thwarted their plan!
If Empress Li, Wang Jien and others had not made an impromptu decision when Zhao Guangyi was critically ill and lacked a contingency plan, I am afraid that no matter how brave Lu Duan was, he would not have been able to turn the tide.
If we want to study the merits of this plan, undoubtedly the greatest success is to keep the Crown Prince Zhao Heng out of the palace. He was isolated and could not even enter the palace. Therefore, Queen Li and Wang Jien were allowed to stay in the palace.
It's cloudy and rainy.
Now Zhao Shu is even more completely isolated, and is directly away from the capital! And Queen Cao prefers Zhao Zongshi far more than Zhao Shu... If the official family suddenly dies at this time, I am afraid that after the death of Taizu Taizong,
The drama may happen again.
Lu Duan won't always be there, and even if Lu Duan is reincarnated, he can't turn the tide every time!
The only question now is, how could Zhao Zhen die in these few days?
Chen Ke repeatedly sought confirmation from his past life memories, and finally remembered that Zhao Zhen was in the eighth year of Jiayou's life, and suddenly fell ill and died. Now it is the seventh year of Jiayou's life, and there is still one year left!
If he didn't die of illness, he could only have been assassinated or poisoned. However, Zhao Zhen had Di Qing and the loyal Hu Yandui beside him. In addition, Zhao Shu also revealed that the officials had further strengthened their precautions, especially against poisoning. Such protection
How could the emperor, who was strict and not at all careless, die within a few days?
