Ranking Pass History: Inventory of the Top Ten Great Players in History

In fact, speaking from the heart, the ministers who were willing to follow the Xing Dynasty to drift on the sea for seven months without surrendering to the Yuan army, regardless of literature and martial arts, could be called loyal ministers of the Song Dynasty.

The reason why they didn't want to join Zhao Kuangyin was because of the little power in their hands.

After all, when Zhao Kuangyin came to the end of the Song Dynasty, he obviously trusted Wen Tianxiang and Chen Shuzhen the most, as well as the generals from the civilian army, but he turned a blind eye to these genuine officials.

If they meet Zhao Kuangyin, half of the officials among them will be stripped of their official titles to make room for the young men who have made great contributions in the past few months.

Especially military generals, maybe more than half of them will be killed.

Now the Remnant Song Dynasty shows signs of rebirth.

These officials certainly don't want to be dismissed by Zhao Kuangyin.

Therefore, after receiving Zhao Kuangyin's edict, the officials of the Xingchao started a big debate in the remodeled courtroom of the prefect's yamen in Guangzhou.

Half of the civil and military officials headed by the emperor Deng Guangjian and the uncle Yang Liangjie insisted not to go.

Deng Guangjian said loudly,
"One emperor and one courtier. Although Emperor Taizu was the founding ancestor of the Song Dynasty, but now that the Holy Son of Heaven is in power, we must of course support our true emperor.

Besides, who knows if the person who calls himself Emperor Taizu is a monster pretending to be Emperor Taizu? "

"Master Deng is right."

Yang Liangjie also said loudly,
"Although the Mongolian army has retreated now, its strength has not been damaged, and it will make a comeback at any time.

Instead of returning to Lin'an, we should use Guangzhou as the capital, and order Wen Tianxiang and Chen Shuzhen to return to the court, and distribute the troops evenly among the generals.

As an example in the country, courtiers have never been allowed to have so many soldiers in their hands. "

Many generals agreed with Yang Liangjie's opinion.

Taiwei Zhang Shijie and son-in-law Su Liuyi, who held military power, remained silent.

They are all military generals who have fought fiercely with the Mongols for more than ten years, and they know how difficult it is to regain the four-way land and repel hundreds of thousands of Mongolian troops in five months.

To put it bluntly, if the Xingchao officials insist on staying in Guangzhou, no matter whether Zhao Kuangyin sends Wen Tianxiang, Chen Shuzhen, or even the reckless Chen Diaoyan to lead an army of tens of thousands to kill them, they will be able to kill Xingchao.

After all, Xingchao at this time is no longer the hope of the world.

The hopes of the people in the world have all been transferred to Zhao Kuangyin who is in Lin'an.

Zhang Shijie was able to escape from the Northern Yuan Dynasty to the Southern Song Dynasty, and he was not a fool, of course, from a partial general to a privy envoy in charge of military power step by step.

He knew that Xing Chao had no other choice but to go to Lin'an according to the order.

Seeing that Zhang Shijie, Weng and his son-in-law were silent, Yang Liangjie walked up to Zhang Shijie and said in a cold voice,

"Private Zhang, if you arrive in Lin'an, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep your official position."

Zhang Shijie raised his brows upright, stared at Yang Liangjie, and said in a deep voice,

"Who does Uncle Guo think I am, Zhang Shijie? If I am really a person who is greedy for power and position, why do I have to travel thousands of miles from the north to seek refuge with Emperor Song? Now that the country is about to perish, naturally the capable will prevail.

If someone is more capable than me, I am willing to abdicate and make way for the virtuous. "

Left Prime Minister Lu Xiufu has always been at the head of the ranks of civil servants. At this time, he walked out of the ranks and asked the little emperor Zhao Bing sitting on the dragon chair,
"Officials, in your opinion, what should we do?"

On the surface, Lu Xiufu asked Zhao Bing, but in fact he asked Empress Dowager Yang who was hanging behind the curtain.

Empress Dowager Yang understands righteousness, but she is an ordinary woman.

She does not have the ambition of Wu Zetian and others, nor the ability of Wu Zetian and others.

Other courtiers thought her son was extremely honorable to be emperor.

Empress Dowager Yang has only one wish, which is to let Zhao Bingping grow up safely.

She had two sons in total, and the eldest son was frightened to death at sea in less than a year after becoming the little emperor.

Now her youngest son, Zhao Bing, has been drifting at sea for seven months, and finally returned to land safely. She doesn't want to take her youngest son Zhao Bing to wander at sea anymore.

The son is not even eight years old, and he is not expected to be an emperor.

Continuing to be the emperor is basically being roasted on the fire.

She knew that these ministers who refused to go to Lin'an were just reluctant to part with the little power in their hands.

But she doesn't care what these ministers think, she just wants to see Zhao Kuangyin early, and then hand over all the world's affairs to Zhao Kuangyin, and she takes her son to live in seclusion in a certain city, and she is satisfied when she grows up safely.

The entire Xing Dynasty didn't know that Zhao Kuangyin only stayed in the late Song Dynasty for six months.

Facing Lu Xiufu's question, Queen Mother Yang took a deep breath and said softly behind the curtain,

"Since Emperor Taizu is here in person, of course we will go to Lin'an to pay respects to Emperor Taizu. Mongolia is so powerful, who can save this court except the mighty Emperor Taizu?

According to Ai's family, we will take a boat to Lin'an immediately.What does Lu Xiang think? "

Lu Xiufu laughed and said,
"The Empress Dowager, Lu must obey."

Yang Liang was in a hurry.

Yang Liangjie was actually not a traitor.

In history, he also fought to the last second in the Battle of Yashan, killing more than a dozen Mongolian soldiers in a row, and was shot to death by random arrows.

But he is a bit greedy.

He didn't want to give up his very honorable position as the uncle of the country, nor did he want to give up the front army in his hand.

Seeing that his sister took the initiative to take the young emperor to Lin'an, Yang Liangjie said loudly,

"Empress Dowager, since ancient times, once you become emperor, there is no way out. If we go to Lin'an, I'm worried that Bing'er will be in danger."

Empress Dowager Yang knew what her younger brother was up to, so she smiled frankly,

"Bing'er is also from the blood of the Taizu. I don't believe that the Taizu will condemn him, a junior who has nothing wrong with him."

Yang Liangjie was speechless.Deng Guangjian still wanted to work harder, he looked at Zhao Bing and asked,

"Guanjia, are you willing to go to Lin'an?"

If Zhao Bing is unwilling to go, Deng Guangjian can join other officials to prevent the trip to Lin'an.

Zhao Bing looked at his teacher and said with a smile,
"Of course I thought about it. I have long wanted to see the great grandfather who beat all four hundred military states with a military stick."

Deng Guangjian suddenly had nothing to say.

Empress Dowager Yang was worried about what Zhang Shijie, who held the military power, thought, and immediately looked at Zhang Shijie and asked,
"Master Zhang, when do you think we will leave for Lin'an?"

Zhang Shijie knelt on one knee and said in a deep voice,

"Everything is arranged by the Queen Mother."

"Then let's set off immediately!"

Since Zhang Shijie did not object, Empress Dowager Yang put her heart in her stomach.

She turned to the officials and said in a deep voice,
"After leaving the court, the civil and military officials packed their luggage and rushed to the boat within two hours. If anyone is late, they will take the boat to Lin'an Mansion by themselves."

Fifteen days before Zhao Kuangyin stayed at the end of the Song Dynasty, officials from Qianxing Dynasty finally arrived at Lin'an Mansion with the young emperor Zhao Bing.

Zhao Kuangyin was wearing a dragon robe, standing at the port waiting for Zhao Bing.

As soon as the dragon boat docked, Empress Dowager Yang led Zhao Bing to the shore and bowed to Zhao Kuangyin.

"I have seen the Emperor Taizu!"

"Retire without courtesy."

Zhao Kuangyin said, and then took two steps forward, directly hugging Zhao Bing in his arms.

"Poor boy, you have really worked hard these two years."
