Don't go down if you have a kind [Rebirth]

Apart from meeting the fate of the emperor in my life, I still have good luck left.

Soldiers in various military uniforms mingled into a mess, and a pot of porridge with whole grains was thrown into chaos at the root of the imperial city.Even the one with radish and greens added.

To fight, or not to fight, with whom to fight; to withdraw, or not to withdraw, where to withdraw.I believe that the soldiers have never been on such a tangled battlefield.

The fishermen were making too much noise, a snipe rebelled and threw me back into the water with one mouth - when I squatted down and sat on the city wall, my mind was still outside the city.

The fisherman with the longest seniority quickly killed the other little ones.King Yan's army came under pressure, and at dawn, they had all broken through the prince's army and the prefecture's army in Qingzhou and Xizhou.The Prince Jin's army followed the snipe who suddenly rebelled - General Xu Ji, and broke into the inner city all the way, staring at the Gyeonggi Army with big eyes.

When I saw it, I couldn’t do it anymore, the wheels of history danced around in place, and they might run a marathon in the next second. Immediately, they snatched the copper gong from the man on the side, and beat it hard——beating the drum will advance, and the sound will sound As soon as the gong stopped, the three armies looked back for a while, and all looked at me.

A chaotic battle stopped here.

At that time, what I roared in my heart was: I beg you, please don't hit anyone who wants to be the emperor, I let you be!when!when!

But later people commented that they all thought that I was not afraid in the face of danger, not frightened in times of chaos, I was on the top of the beacon fire, and I blew the bell to stop the war.

I have no comment on this.The moment I finished the gong, I was hit by a stray arrow on the back of my shoulder because my legs were weak, and I passed out.

When King Yan escorted King Ying, King Rui, King Dai, the corpses of King Jin and King Qi, and the generals of Qingxi two prefectures into the palace, I managed to get up and went to the Daming Hall with a bandage all over my body.

Even though it was just a night of muddle-headed fighting, many people still died in battle, and the blood was mixed in the cold snow, lingering around the entire imperial city.

King Qi pierced his heart with a knife, while King Jin cut his throat with a knife.Both of them died very simply, with the "surprise" and "fear" of the moment before they died still on their faces.

But Song Fei's sharp sword, after the cold light appeared, has hidden merit and fame... He is very likely to die in the chaos.I opened my eyes and ordered someone to look for it.

Wei Pei and King Yan entered the palace together, and when they met, they bowed nervously: "Your Majesty..." He looked at me with complicated eyes, hesitant to speak.

Zhao Guang, Xue Dai, Xue Shang, Jiang Jing, the generals of the Zhongzhou Army, the Three Kings of Zhongzhou, and even Xu Ji, all the civil and military officials, even those who were not of high enough rank to enter the court, were bustling and bustling in the hall at this time, terrified. They stared at me with different thoughts.But none of them knew what I asked Wei Pei to say to King Yan, and they were even more puzzled by what King Yan did to "King Qin".

I know what Wei Pei is anxious about.If I keep my mouth shut at this time, and casually send King Yan the credit for "King Qin helping Beijing", it will be a fraudulent use, and it may annoy King Yan and overthrow the wheel of history that has just returned to the right track.But if I mention it, it is to give the throne to the king of Yan. At this time, the king of Yan is fully qualified to accept the abdication logically. It can even be said that no one is not happy to see him as the emperor.After all, the "Decree to Cut the King" has made me a target of public criticism.

And once I, the target of public criticism, take off that layer of imperial robe, it is self-evident what kind of situation I will face next.

But as long as I am king, I will be responsible for the wheel of history.

I waved to Xu Changan beside me: "Read."

"...The imperial edict said:..."

All the ministers knelt down one after another.

"I have been in power for five years, and the world has been shattered. Fortunately, thanks to the spirit of my ancestors, I survived the crisis..."

Everyone was stunned for a while, and then reacted, and there was an uproar.

"...The people's livelihood is not safe, internal strife is repeated, the Qiang enemy tigers are looking at the north, and the external aggression is even worse. Because of my stupidity and lack of virtue, the sky will change. At the same time, I have subdued the Cangbei, and I feel the wind and cold. The entrustment of the former emperor is getting heavier and heavier. I heard that the emperor's destiny is not permanent, but it is due to virtue. Therefore, Yao gave Shun, and Shun gave Yu..."

King Yan raised his head, a little shocked, and frowned slightly to look at me.

"I heard that Yunzhou's soldiers and horses are strong and the people are happy because of the blessing of King Yan. Although I don't know it, I dare to believe that it is a tribute to heaven and virtue. Today, following the old classics of Tang and Yu, Zen is located in King Yan..."

"Your Majesty!" The officials got up from the ground in fright, "This... this..."

I grabbed the jade seal on the desk, took Xu Chang'an as a crutch, stepped down the high steps, and helped King Yan up: "Third brother, the emperor promises a thousand pieces of gold. If you accept it, don't forget my terms."

He was dressed in black armor, and drops of blood dripped down.The face is tough, the eyes are resolute, and the two gray hairs on the sideburns add a bit of calmness and kindness.In anyone's opinion, he is more capable of being a king than I think.

He frowned and stared at the imperial edict and jade seal I handed to him. After a while, he took a deep breath and said, "Third brother can't take it."

I never dreamed that things would be like this.

Later, all the ministers clapped their chests and said that they were scared to death.Half the officials had a nervous breakdown that month and called in sick.

The third brother led the army back north in a hurry.Before leaving, I had a cup of tea with me in the study room in Xuanyang Hall.Said: "I don't think I am unworthy to be king, but I am in the imperial city, who will guard the border?"

...... This remark is heartfelt, and I am speechless.I just don't have that ability.

"Fourteenth brother, you are very different from before." He sat cross-legged, exuding a dignified and murderous air all over his body, which was more terrifying than my father and master. Whoever sits in this seat will not do better than you."

Having said that, I was stunned for a moment.

"It's just that the king's decree was cut." He frowned slightly, expressing his distaste for my meager tea without a trace, "I can't respond. I have been asking the town for decades, and I have never done anything ignorant. Now King Jin is dead, and Cangzhou is in chaos, if your Majesty cuts the military power of your ministers, you may have no generals in front of the battle, which will be disadvantageous for the northern frontier defense."

I know he's right.This time, the two kings Jin and King Qi were killed, and the three kings Ying, Rui, and Dai were captured. It's good luck for a blind cat to meet a dead mouse.Although it is a good strategy to take advantage of the victory and pursue the attack, but the current situation does not allow it. I have cut the king's order hastily, and I still need to think carefully about how to take the next step.

I didn't want to evade him, and simply asked about another thing I was worried about: "I know that my third brother is loyal, and I can't touch the sand in my eyes. The border area between Yunzhou and Beiqiang depends on my third brother's hard work. I heard that in the past, the eldest brother of the crown prince wanted to exchange the ten cities in the north of Yunzhou for the Daxing march map that the Qiang king had obtained from the king of Qin, but the third brother refused. Offended the queen mother Xue Niangniang..."

His eyes darkened, and he stared at the tea soup in front of him: "Right is right, wrong is wrong."

"Then have you ever thought about it," I continued, "if the prince reaches a deal with King Qiang and obtains the marching map, he will also hold the ironclad evidence that King Qin colluded with the enemy, and in this way, General Jiang Fangfang will be cleared." Injustice, if you can mediate it, the eldest brother of the prince will be exonerated, and he will not die like that. If he is still alive, there will be no chaos today."

He was silent, bowed his head slightly, his eyes were a little red: "Right is right, wrong is wrong. Even today, I still say this."

I sighed: "Hey. Even so, the third brother still did something for the eldest brother, right?"

He raised his head suddenly, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

I held the pot to refill tea for him, and continued: "After Jiang Fang died in battle, he left behind a wife and a daughter. The daughter was arranged to leave Beijing immediately, and there was no trace of him for several years. She was nine months pregnant when she heard the bad news, and she died shortly after giving birth, and it is said that she died of one dead body and two lives."

His eyes moved: "Exactly. Because of this, there is no one in Jiang Fang's mansion, and his family is also implicated in the Empress Dowager Jiang's lineage, so the court did not pursue it further."

"So, is it really a dead body and two lives?" My palms were sweating, and I couldn't hold the pot handle firmly. "Where is the child of the prince and the princess? Is it still alive?"

"Dead." After a while, he slowly uttered three words.

There is a stone lump in my heart that has been suspended for decades. In this snowy day of the rest of my life, I was splashed by the hot tea soup, dangling, and fell to the bottom.But for no reason, there was a cavity of melancholy.

"Times have changed," he looked at me, "Jiang Fang's grievances have long been cleared, elder brother died well, and King Qin was also convicted and executed. It is meaningless to bring up this matter again."

...how could it be meaningless?You know that's the one thing that killed our country once?

I said: "Hey, third brother, this is not a trivial matter to be fooled. Now that King Qin, Empress Dowager, and King Jin are gone, there is no need to be afraid of anything. I will immediately order various departments to check and tell the world who is Everyone has to figure it out."

After sending away King Yan, I put King Ying, King Rui, King Dai, and all the rebel generals into a black prison.

Immediately afterwards, the messy remnants of armed forces from all walks of life had to be settled, and the battle reports of the northern pass were one after another.

In addition, the Ministry of Rites and the Department of Internal Affairs were ordered to investigate the old case of the prince and Jiang Fang, and the first edict issued said that the good king was actually the son of the dead general Jiang Fang, not the grandson of the emperor, and the real eldest grandson of the emperor had been captured by King Yan. The cruel and ruthless evil spirit died in Beiguan, causing an uproar between the ruling and opposition parties.

Big and small things continued, from morning to noon, all the ministers moved to the couch with numb legs, the dry mouthed tea, and the hungry palace ate two bites of pads, and so on until the [-]th day of the new year, golden at noon The bright sun shone through the high windows onto the sapphire floor tiles in the hall, shaking everyone's eyes sorely, and they raised their heads one after another—only to find that everyone, without exception, was favored by dark circles.

I waved my hand and gave everyone a half-day off.

But my heart was empty, and I swayed towards the passing wave stage step by step.

Half of the snow on the ground had melted, revealing a large area of ​​blue stone bricks.The branches of the ancient red maple tree stretched horizontally and slanted, showing their teeth and claws, as if they were going to have a naughty fight with the flowing stream.The snow water is crystal clear, large and small white stones are strewn about, and the red carp seems to be ignorant of the cold and heat, slowly passing by.

My frame was not yet ready, and I was a little tired after walking two steps, so I found a stone pier and sat down, and took out a Cangzhou battle report from my sleeve.

Zhao Shuo was the chief writer and asked me to send them people, food, weapons, and military coats.This bear, why didn't he ask me to send him a maid and wife?

No one was there, I dumped the remnants of King Jin to them, and managed to get Xu Ji out of San Si's hands.There is no food, Liuzhou does not pay food taxes, and the mice in the treasury are so cold that their teeth chatter and there are echoes. This morning, I had a quarrel with the people in the household department.The weapons barely allowed Liangzhou to re-dig iron ore to rush to produce a batch.Military overcoats, the magistrates of Xizhou wanted to pay off their merits, but they graciously transported them out, but the road was blocked by heavy snow, and they got stuck in the middle of the road.

At the end of the day, the surname Zhao remembered to ask, whether my head and neck are still one family, and whether my buttocks and the throne are still together.Did he want ghosts to give him people, food, weapons and military coats?

After paying the money, I hastily added a string, to the effect that King Liang had just escaped from the Dama Grassland and knew that I had fallen into the hands of King Jin. He left the army and ran towards the capital, but was stopped by Jiang Bi halfway. Unfortunately, Prince Zhu Le's army from the Eastern Qiang suddenly came under pressure, His Royal Highness Prince Liang suffered two lines of nosebleeds, and turned around and went to the battlefield again.Until now, it is still at the forefront.

Jiang Bi asked Mr. Zhao to mention a sentence in the battle report, pleading for him to beat King Liang.

I'd be damned if I could spare him.
