Chapter 400: The Kingdom of Zhao Changes
After getting the military talisman, with the military power in hand, Zhang Xian and others can say that the overall situation has been settled. Now that they have strength, they lack a title, and the only person who can give Zhang Xian this title is Queen Song, so she Her attitude is very important, but Queen Song said that she would not agree to anything without seeing Zhang Xian and Li Rubing.

To be honest, Zhang Xian didn't want to see Queen Song, he could be said to have been living in the shadow of Queen Song all his life, King Zhao Wei had four sons in total, none of them were born to Queen Song, but as the aunt, King Song The queen has always been very strict with the four sons, and among the four sons, the third died early, and the fourth was still young, so there was not much conflict with Queen Song, but Zhang Lin and Zhang Xian were different.

Queen Song is very powerful. It can be said that the mothers of Zhang Lin and Zhang Xian died indirectly in the hands of Queen Song. This caused the relationship between Queen Song, Zhang Lin and Zhang Xian to be very bad. Xian didn't want to see Queen Song at all, but now Queen Song wanted to see him by name, and it was related to his ascension to the throne. Zhang Xian seemed to have no choice but to agree.

After Li Rubing heard it, he understood it. He had also heard about the incident between Zhang Xian and Queen Song. He also knew that Zhang Xian was very depressed at the moment, but the righteousness was in the hands of Queen Song. He said: "Master Hou, after all, the queen is the aunt of Lord Hou, and if Master Hou wants to ascend the throne in a legitimate way, the Queen's support is indispensable. As a matter of reason, Master Hou also needs to meet the queen."

Zhang Xian understood this truth, so he nodded and said: "Forget it, let's meet, General Li, and you will go to Qingfu Palace with me later!"

"Here!" Li Rubing replied.

An hour later, in King Zhao's Palace and Qingfu Palace, Empress Song and Zhang Xian were sitting opposite each other, and Li Rubing was also standing aside.

Looking at Zhang Xian, Queen Song sneered and said, "Your Majesty Yunzhong is really good at controlling the situation so easily. It's really extraordinary. It seems that I really underestimated you in the past!"

"The queen mother was joking. Zhang Lin, Mi Fang and others conspired to tamper with the late king's edict. The sons and ministers are just doing their part to set things right for the father and the king. It's not very clever!" Zhang Xian replied with a smile, although he He didn't like Queen Song very much, but for the future, Zhang Xian had to lose his smile.

But Queen Song obviously didn't like Zhang Xian's tricks, she sneered and said, "Make order out of chaos? Who is in chaos and who is upright? I'm afraid the Marquis of Yunzhong knows better than anyone else. It's okay to fool others with these rhetoric. In front of the palace , Yun Zhonghou, don’t come here, I know very well what Yun Zhonghou wants, I can give it to you, but I have one condition!”

"What's the condition? Queen Mother, but it's okay!" Seeing Queen Song let go, Zhang Xian couldn't help but feel overjoyed, as long as Queen Song is willing to let go, as for the conditions, as long as he can get the throne smoothly, Zhang Xian doesn't care.

"My palace's condition is very simple, I want you to save Zhang Lin's life!" Queen Song said, she can give Zhang Xian a legitimate name, but the condition is that Zhang Xian must keep Zhang Lin's life.

"Can the queen mother tell the son why?" Hearing Queen Song's conditions, Zhang Xian frowned. Zhang Lin didn't want to stay, after all, he was a competitor, and he was also the eldest son of King Zhao Wei. He is still alive for a day, which is a hidden danger to Zhang Xian, so Zhang Xian asked Queen Song to give a convincing reason.

Queen Song sighed, and said: "Xian'er, do you remember how your elder brother treated you when you were young? After all, you are brothers, so why have you come this far? Difficult, the third child died early, now only you, the eldest brother and the fourth child are left, stop killing each other!"

Queen Song's words brought Zhang Xian back to 20 years ago in an instant. At that time, Zhang Xian and Zhang Lin were still young and brothers were very close. But who would have thought that 20 years later, they would leave So far?

Thinking of the past, Zhang Xian couldn't help sighing, and said: "Well, for the sake of the queen mother, I can let the boss go, as long as he doesn't fight against me in the future, I can let him go, and promise He was rich and honored all his life, but Mi Fan, Zhang Chuan, and Sima Chong were destined to die, and they did not care about change!" Zhang Xian finally agreed to keep Zhang Lin alive, but as Zhang Lin's supporter, Mi Fan Zhang Xian, Zhang Chuan, Sima Chong and others must not stay. This is Zhang Xian's bottom line. In order to prevent Song Queen from interceding for them, Zhang Xian can only take the lead in expressing his opinion.

"Mi Fan, Zhang Chuan, and Sima Chong tampered with the late king's edict, intending to subvert the imperial government. It is not a pity to die. How could this palace plead with Xian'er for these traitors? Don't worry, Xian'er, their life and death have nothing to do with this palace! Queen Song nodded and said, she also knew that Mi Fan, Zhang Chuan, and Sima Chong would never be able to keep them, because even if Zhang Xian didn't kill them, Zhuang Ping and Li Rubing wouldn't let them live, so King Song After that, she never thought about protecting them at all. It is the bottom line to save Zhang Lin's life. Queen Song is still very clear about this.

The conversation between Zhang Xian and Queen Song went smoothly, and soon, Queen Song issued a decree, accusing Mi Fan, Zhang Chuan, Sima Chong and others of tampering with King Zhao Wei's edict in an attempt to subvert the imperial edict. , now that King Zhao Wei has passed away, and the new King Zhao has not ascended the throne, Queen Song is the supreme existence of Zhao State. Her Yizhi means that Mi Fang and others are doomed, and no one can save them, but many What's strange is that Zhang Lin, the other protagonist of this matter, didn't mention it in the Yizhi, which shouldn't be the case!
However, as a loser, no one cared about Zhang Lin's life and death. Everyone's eyes were on Zhang Xian. After three days, Zhang Xian and others finally controlled the entire Jinyang City and the court.

In the 22nd year of Qianyuan, on the [-]th day of the eighth month, the coffin of King Zhao Wei walked out of Jinyang City again and headed for Beishan Wangling. This time, he was buried very smoothly.

In the 22nd year of Qianyuan, on the first day of September, Zhang Xian held a grand enthronement ceremony in Chengqian Palace in Jinyang. Zhang Lin was also released at this time. Zhang Xian said that he was used by Mi Fang and others, and he was not too serious. It was a big mistake, so he was still named Jiuyuanhou. This operation made everyone unable to understand. How could Zhang Xian handle it so lightly?Doesn't Zhang Xian know that keeping Zhang Lin is a hidden danger?

Of course Zhang Xian knew, but since he promised Queen Song, he would not break his promise. Besides, although Zhang Lin saved his life, he was destined to spend his whole life under surveillance, and Zhang Lin's supporters had already been captured by Zhang Lin. After the offering was washed away, there was no threat even if Zhang Lin was kept.

In addition to sealing Zhang Lin, Zhang Xian also officially named Li Rubing as a general to take charge of Zhao Guo's military power. Li Rubing's long-cherished wish for many years finally came true. army.

In addition to conferring the title of Li Rubing, Zhang Xian also appointed Zhuang Ping as prime minister, while Dong Zhong, Kou Fei, Le Ting, Zhang Jie and other generals in the army who made great contributions to this mutiny were all promoted, and became Li Rubing's future commander in charge of the Zhao army. left arm and right arm.

Zhang Chuan is dead, and Sima Chong is also dead. These two former No. 1 generals under Zhao Xin's command did not die on the battlefield, but died in the internal struggle of Zhao State. People feel a pity, especially those famous generals such as Meng Zhan, Bai Qi, Yue Fei, and Han Qing who have fought against Zhang Chuan and Sima Chong are even more emotional. Although Zhang Chuan and Sima Chong are not as good as Zhao Xin, they are still rare It's really embarrassing for the general to die in the internal struggle of Zhao State like this.

The huge change of Zhao State, a large number of civil servants and generals were purged, and the strength of Zhao State dropped a notch instantly. Although it lost to Qin State and Deng State and lost a lot of territory, Zhao State's strength is still very strong. , even if the Deng State in the three counties of Chenliu, Chen, and Liang counties can only be on par with them, let alone Qin and Chu, and after this great change, although Zhao's soldiers and horses did not suffer any losses. , but a large number of generals died, Zhao Guo's competitiveness has dropped a lot. At the very least, without Zhang Chuan and Sima Chong, Zhao Guo can only be supported by Li Rubing in the future. A single tree is hard to support, and the decline of Zhao is indispensable.

But at this time, neither Deng nor Qin and Chu had the heart to trouble Zhao. After the Three Kingdoms defeated Zhao, both Deng and Qin had suffered a lot. , was unable to send troops at all, and if the two big brothers didn't make a move, the state of Chu would not be able to make a move even more, so the whole world entered a rare period of peace.
