Chapter 261 The uncle and sister-in-law have a good relationship, and there is a king in Jinling

Zhao Huan's queen Zhu Lian is naturally a rare beauty. She is only 27 years old this year, one year younger than Zhao Kai. Although she has raised a pair of children, she has taken good care of herself, with a gorgeous face and a graceful figure.

The weather is a bit stuffy today, so she didn't wear any regular queen clothes in her palace. Instead, she was like a little lady in Jinling City. She wore a white wide-sleeved trouser, opened her collar, and inside it was a red strap with a white long skirt. A ribbon was tied on the red strap, which completely highlighted her broad "heart".

Zhao Huan looked at his beautiful and beautiful man who gave a blessing, and nodded slightly to return the gift. Then the couple entered the hall together and headed towards the throne inside. A desk was placed in front of the throne, and a newly folded robe was placed on it, and a few letter papers filled with words were spread flat on the edge of the robe.

Zhao Huan sat down on the imperial throne and asked, "Has the robe sewn?"

This robe was sewn by Zhu Lian under the guidance of a palace maid who was proficient in female workers. Zhao Huan asked her to sew it "handedly" but just sew a stitch or two. But she didn't expect that she would sew such a large robe out with her own hands...

"It's already sewn, but it's been a lot of effort... I don't know if it's up to my second uncle?" Zhu Lian smiled, "Feng Ying's letter said that my second uncle has become much stronger in the past two years. He is such a brave husband."

Zhao Huan was a little annoyed when he heard this. He originally wanted to stay with the queen, but now he is out of interest.

He then turned his attention to the letter that was spread on the desk and asked, "Who is your wife writing to?"

"Write a letter to my second uncle," Zhu Lian said, "Did the official forget that yesterday I asked my uncle to write a letter to me in a gentle manner, and said that you were seriously ill again... and asked him to take good care of our mother and son in the future."

When Zhao Huan saw that there was no trace of grief on his wife's face (he was in the late stage of timid disease, and Zhu Lian was not sad at all, which was really heartbreaking), he felt a little unhappy. He sighed gently, picked up the letter paper on the desk and read it page by page.

The main content in the letter is to reminisce about the past... Zhu Lian and Zhao Kai seem to be very familiar with each other, and they have known each other since childhood. Zhao Kai is a famous talented prince, and Zhu Lian is also quite talented, and he is also a daughter from a noble family, so he is considered a person in the same circle.

Moreover, the two are not as homeless as Zhao Huan, so they often have the opportunity to meet on various occasions. Later, Zhu Lian married Zhao Kai's brother Zhao Huan, and her sister became Zhao Kai's wife. The two still had many opportunities to meet and their relationship was very harmonious...

Zhao Huan looked at the words in the letter that were really ambiguous about the past relationship, and his face became bluer and bluer. At the same time, he felt that the color of the soft-footed head on his head changed a little. He was just about to get angry, but suddenly he saw at the end of the letter, Zhu Lian actually humbly asked his son Zhao Chen to be named King of Jinling!

"Please ask for the title of King Jinling for your elder brother? Madam, what do you mean?" Zhao Huan frowned and looked at his wife.

Zhu Lian pouted and seemed a little unhappy, "Does the official family really want to hand over our mother and son to the second uncle?"

Zhao Huan shook his head, "What did your wife say? I'm not really going to die!"

Yes, cowardice is not fatal!

Zhu Lian glared at Zhao Huan angrily, "Brother is now twelve years old, and the New Year is thirteenth... If you don't want to hand over our mother and son to your second uncle, you should arrange it as soon as possible! First, I will be appointed as the Imperial City Office, and add a Yingtian Prefecture to the prefecture in a few days!

You have already named the second uncle as the crown prince... If you don't arrange your elder brother early, if there is any fault and all the ministers go to Luoyang to welcome the new lord, my mother and son will really be dealt with by the second uncle. If I don't have the elder brother, I will not be afraid. No matter how hard it is, the second uncle will not be able to tolerate me and my elder sister. But the elder brother is your legitimate son, the eldest grandson of the late emperor, and the most ruthless imperial family!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Lian's slender phoenix eyes were already a little tearful. Zhao Huan felt very uncomfortable when he saw her crying.

His son Zhao Chen's current status is indeed a bit embarrassing. He has been granted the title of the Crown Prince, so of course he can no longer grant Zhao Chen the title of the Crown Prince.

But he didn't plan to really pass the throne to Zhao Kai... He worked so hard in Jinling, and also managed the southeast half of the wall to flourish. In the end, Zhao Kai came to pick up the ready-made ones, which was so annoying?

If his life was shorter, maybe even a beautiful woman like Zhu Lian would have been accepted by Zhao Kai!

"Official family, think about how King Yan Yi and King Qi Kanghui died!" Zhu Lian said, "One died of suicide, the other died of illness... He was only 22 years old, and he died of sleep after a good sleep? Is it possible?"

This is also Zhao Huan’s third concern!

What he was most worried about was that Zhao Kai sent troops to steal half of his southeastern country!

The second thing he was worried about was that the Jin soldiers went south and snatched his southeastern half!

The third is that after his death, his son Zhao Chen took Zhao Dezhao and Zhao Defang's retreat... After all, his son's death is slightly better than his own.

Because he had a lot of wives, there were more than one son in Zhao Chen. But those were all concubines and did not pose much threat to Zhao Kai. Zhao Chen was the eldest son and the eldest grandson of Emperor Zhuangzong of Song, and he had a great influence among the scholars and officials!

If Zhao Kai gets the southeast half of the wall, he will probably kill Zhao Chen to prevent future troubles!

"Brother has ascended the throne, can the Crown Prince agree?" Zhao Huan frowned, "The Crown Prince hasn't sent troops to fight?"

Zhu Lian said: "Aren't the officials practicing the new army? Didn't the 200,000 new army be trained in the first phase? After the fourth year of the imperial examination competition in Jingkang, wouldn't we have to practice another 200,000 new army? With 400,000 new army, I am afraid that half of the southeast will not be able to protect the southeast?"

"That's right..." Zhao Huan nodded.

He endured humiliation so much, wasn’t he just to train hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers to protect his family? He trained hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers and finally passed the throne to Zhao Kai... What’s the use of practicing your soldiers?

Zhu Lian said at this time: "In the letter, I asked the second uncle for the King of Jinling for the eldest brother, and the second uncle will definitely agree. With the second uncle's words, you can make the eldest brother the prefect of Yingtian! In this way, the eldest brother can cultivate his own power, and the ministers in the court will know what you want."

It turned out that Zhu Lian had a trap for Zhao Kai with kind words... She made Zhao Kai mistakenly think that she wanted Zhao Chen to be the king of a government in Jinling after Zhao Huan's death - Jinling is the capital of Zhao Huan, but Zhao Kai could not come to Jinling to be the emperor. So it is acceptable to grant Jinling to his nephew in exchange for peacefully taking over the southeast half of the wall. The vassals may be reduced in the future, but now the Jiangnan half has not been taken down, why do Zhao Kai have to coax Zhu Lian? Moreover, Zhao Kai and Zhu Lian have such a good relationship, so you can't tear the face now?

Even if Zhao Chen is killed in the future, it will cause a traffic accident, food poisoning, etc.... and then a grand burial will be necessary, so that Zhao Kai's grand manner can be shown!

Now that Zhao Kai lets go, Zhao Huan can arrange for his son to take over...

"Okay!" Zhao Huan nodded, "That's it...You add words to your letter of missing Kaifeng and Luoyang."

Zhu Lian nodded and smiled, "I understand! I must talk to my second uncle..."

The couple is now completely consistent... They are unanimous in design to deceive Zhao Kai, the honest child!

However, Zhao Kai is easy to deceive, but the Jin thief is hard to fool!

Just after giving away the letter and reward of Zhao Kai, the robe was sent out for two days, Liu Yu, the pacifier of Huaibei, the Song Dynasty, arrived in Jinling City with an urgent report!

The news in the expedited report is very terrible!

The prince of the Great Jin Kingdom personally led his troops to the Huaiyang Army, and was about to invade Haizhou and Lianshui Army!

And this time the person who came is not a prince, but a pair of princes! The fourth prince Wushu and the fifteenth prince Wulimei came together!

After reading Liu Yu's report, Zhao Huanxin said: I don't know how many princes there are in this Great Jin Kingdom? Why are they all ranked fifteenth? How can we ascend the throne like this? After Wu Qimai died, the eldest prince was the first, and then the second prince, the third prince and the fourth prince are the turn of this? I don't know when it will be the turn of the fifteenth prince? I'm afraid it will take decades, right?

"Official family!" Shangshu Zuo Pushe Geng Zhongnan came out to report, "This time the Jin thieves mobilized two princes... The situation on the Huaidong front must be very critical, and new troops should be dispatched as soon as possible to support!"

It is definitely better to dispatch two princes at a time than to dispatch one prince at a time! If three or four princes are dispatched at a time, the Huaihe River defense line may be in danger!

Zhao Huan said: "Who can go to Huaidong to supervise the army?"

"Official family," Zhang Bangchang, the Shangshu Right Pushe, made a report, "The new army is under the responsibility of the Privy Council, and of course one of the Privy Council officials and the Tongzhi Privy Council officials should lead the troops to Huaidong!"

Yes! The war is under the jurisdiction of the Privy Council!

Zhao Huan has implemented the emphasis on culture and neglected military personnel to the end... So the four "famous generals" of Zhong Shizhong, Zhong Shimin, Yao Gu, and Liu Guang have all retired at home.

The army of the Southern Song Dynasty is now divided into the Privy Council, Lianghuai, Liangjiang, Jinghu, Yangtze River, and the coastal five general managers, and then the local pacification envoy (the place where the general manager department is established does not have the pacification envoy), the prefect, the prefect, and the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, the magistrate, and the magistrate commander 200,000 local wing troops.

If there is an emergency in the two Huaihe River and Jinghu, the boss of the Privy Council should personally lead the troops to support and serve as the head coach of the front line!

Now the two leaders of the Southern Song Privy Council are Zhao Mingcheng and Li Gang... Li Gang cannot be used! Zhao Huanxin said: Although he did a good job in the position of Liangjiang General Manager, Liangjiang was not on the front line and had never fought a war, so Li Gang was just deploying defenses in the army and never went to the battlefield.

But this time I went to help the two Huaihe Rivers... I can't let Li Gang go!

Zhao Huan turned his attention to Zhao Mingcheng again. This guy looks good! He has a long beard, tall and burly, and looks so handsome that he is a general at first glance!

"Zhao Yuanshu!"

"I am here..." Zhao Mingcheng knew that something was wrong, but he had no choice but to do anything.
