He is really old and has no interest in government affairs.
But there is still so much to do.
To get rid of Dong Songchen, depose Ding Daquan, Li Xia, Yan Li and Dingdang can be traitors, but they cannot be traitors who are not loyal to him;
Wu Qian must be deposed, lest this old man treat his nephew... no, his adopted son, his only heir, lest Wu Qian transfer the throne from his line back to the clan.
Clan? Fuck...the clan!
Zhao Yun would never allow it.
After finishing all this, I have to start urging my stupid son to study every day, which gives me a headache.
The eldest daughter of the Li Ren family should not have been chosen as Princess Rong in the first place. She was such a jealous and evil woman that she even had to kill the maid who was married to her when she became pregnant.
The noble prince has been cultivated into this kind of virtue.
The entire Li family should be executed!
He actually allowed the Li family to survive to this day...
"Publish Jia Sidao, select the virtue hall to lead the event."
…
"Since I came to the throne, I have destroyed gold and driven away Mongolia. Nowadays, Mongolia is in chaos, foreign troubles have been subdued, and the three sides are stable. I have a self-awareness. I have tried my best to do this kind of civil and martial arts, and it is difficult to go to the next level. Those who worry about it, the ancestral temple.
According to inheritance, many people in the recent dynasty advised me to establish a crown prince..."
While talking, Zhao Yun suddenly became angry, picked up the fruit on the table and threw it at Jia Sidao.
"Jia Shixian! How dare you play with walnuts while I'm talking!"
Jia Sidao was hit a bit, but he lowered his head to play with the two walnuts in his sleeves and said: "Your Majesty doesn't trust me, so why come to ask me? With my temper, I shouldn't be an official. It's better to let me be free."
Are you comfortable?"
Zhao Yun was furious, slapped the table and shouted: "Are you tired of living?!"
Jia Sidao then collected the walnuts and said respectfully: "Listen to the holy edict."
Zhao Yun blew his beard and was still unhappy when he saw Jia Sidao's stern look.
"Come closer."
"According to the decree."
"No need to hold it, smile."
"yes……"
"Tsk." Zhao Yun smacked his lips and said, "Why aren't you as close to me as you used to be?"
"I am afraid of Your Majesty, and I do not want to know about the affairs of the Privy Council anymore..."
Zhao Yun sighed and asked: "Before the battle of Ezhou, did you expect that Kublai Khan would withdraw his troops?"
"His Majesty?"
Jia Sidao was shocked and murmured: "Your Majesty thinks... I did it on purpose?"
He hurriedly knelt down on the ground and was about to take off his official hat with both hands.
Zhao Yun stepped forward and held Jia Sidao's hand.
"Your Majesty, please allow me to serve as official..."
"That's enough. I'm saying that someone is trying to frame you. I don't believe it."
“It’s hard for me to explain...”
"No, you entered Ezhou City in person and moved 700 horses to Jiujiang. There is no need to argue. After you returned to the court, you did not fight for power or power. You only wanted to get Ji Xixi back for me. With this bold loyalty, I can still doubt you.
Can’t do it?”
"Your Majesty is a suspicious minister. I would rather not be this official..."
"well."
Zhao Yun sighed and suddenly asked: "How long has it been since I fought with you in a cricket fight?"
"Since I was ordered to promulgate and pacify the Huaihe River and Jinghu."
"Two or three years ago... I still remember that I was playing with you and I still felt young and strong. Today, I feel that I am old. You are still young. Your appearance... is somewhat similar to your sister."
Jia Sidao lowered his head and said nothing.
"I'm so ashamed of your sister. She gave birth to my only daughter. But I couldn't even give her the position of queen, and let her die early..."
Zhao Yun is really sad.
Living to this day, he has realized the loneliness of the emperor more deeply.
There were countless beauties in the harem, but the only one who truly treated him had died of illness many years ago.
"No matter how good I am as emperor, what's the use? If I can't protect the love of my life, my wife, I will be..."
Jia Sidao couldn't help but blush and said: "Brother-in-law."
"Okay, okay." Zhao Yun was overjoyed and patted Jia Sidao's hand, sighing with emotion, "Others always say that I am fatuous and use traitorous ministers. They don't understand... they don't understand that all I want is one share.
It's just sincerity. How many people treat me sincerely when you say "Your Majesty" and "Guan family"? It's not as good as your "brother-in-law", who pretends to be loyal, but your sincerity is rare..."
"I thought your Majesty didn't trust me anymore..."
"Okay, okay, don't talk about this, help me take care of the state affairs, and when the weather clears, play Cuju with me."
Jia Sidao was overjoyed and stood up quickly.
He finally regained his previous confident attitude of laughing and scolding, but also strategizing.
"Brother-in-law, do you really plan to make Prince Zhong the crown prince?"
"Don't reassure me that I will have an heir, otherwise what's the difference between you and Yan Li Dingdang?"
Jia Sidao sighed.
He looked very painful, as if he didn't want to accept this fact, but he could only accept it.
This is the real consideration for Zhao Yun.
Unlike Yan Li Dingdang, who would only use Zhao Yun's pain for his own gain.
"If you want to establish a prince... Wu Qian, an old man, must not be in court. But now Li Xia is in charge of Sichuan and Shu. Li Xia is the grandson of Li Renben, and he and Prince Zhong are incompatible. Once he learns that Prince Zhong has become the crown prince, he may
The general will rebel against the Song Dynasty and surrender to the Mongols. Your Majesty must investigate this serious danger and must not be careless!"
Jia Sidao did not mention Ding Daquan.
That's a clown.
"Hanzhong has been newly restored, and the commander-in-chief of Shu has been appointed. This is no child's play. How should we deal with it properly?"
"Your Majesty should remain silent for now and summon him to return to court to report his merits."
Zhao Yun was slightly startled and asked: "Shi Xian's intention... He holds military power, how dare he refuse to be transferred?"
"I speculate that Li Xia may not even dare to come if he just wants to report his merits to the court..."
~~
Zhao Yun didn't realize that this conversation was very familiar.
It was here that Uncle Xie Fang had an almost identical conversation with him.
"Yu Jie is proud of his troops and does not know the courtesy of your Majesty. Please attack him by surprise."
"Is it possible that Your Majesty is worried that Yu Jie holds great power and is not ready to attack him?"
"I have lost my heart as a scholar, so I will not dare to come..."
After Yu Jie died, there were still people who wanted to avenge Yu Jie.
Over the years, Zhao Yun only thought it was ridiculous and was determined not to rehabilitate Yu Jie. It was not until the Mongol army came to the border last year that he had no choice but to reinstate Yu Jie's official position in order to boost the morale of Sichuan and Shu.
But Zhao Yun still didn't think he was wrong in his heart.
If Yu Jie had no different intentions, why would he commit suicide?
That glass of poisonous wine was aggrieved by the world, but it clearly proved Yu Jie's wolf ambition...
~~
On that day, in Yunding City, Diaoyu City, Lingxiao City and other places, groups of soldiers and civilians packed their last luggage and prepared to move out.
A tablet was held up.
"Master Yu, let's go."
"Brother...do you know Mr. Yu?"
"I once lived under Duke Yu's tent."
"Excuse me, please...Brother, do you know why Mr. Yu committed suicide back then?"
"I don't know, but I guess there is nothing I can do."
"how do I say this?"
"Yu Gong knew that he would die when he entered the court, and he did not want the injustice of Yue Wumu to happen again in the Song Dynasty. If he did not go when called, he was afraid that the court would attack him and the soldiers would kill themselves. He was in a dilemma, so someone persuaded him to surrender to Mongolia.
Or if you worry for a long time, things will change, and if you drink poisonous wine... the least people will be affected."
"What a shame, fortunately Mr. Yu was finally rehabilitated."
"Fortunately, I was rehabilitated..."
~~
Lin'an Palace City.
Ding Daquan pushed away the guard who stopped him.
"I want to see your Majesty! Your Majesty, the Privy Council has important matters to report! The Privy Council has important military information..."
"..."
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Ding is making trouble in front of the palace..."
Zhao Yun glanced at Jia Sidao, but did not ask him to back down, and nodded lightly.
"Pass! Ding Daquan comes to see you."
…
"Your Majesty, urgent report from Hanzhong...Li Xia, the envoy of Sichuan Province, kindly requests to return to the court to report on his duties, and attaches an important secret letter for your Majesty's inspection!"
Zhao Yun did not immediately look at the folded book and secret letter presented, but turned to look at Jia Sidao.
The emperor and his ministers were all a little stunned.
Li Xia may not dare to come...his words are still ringing in my ears.
However, Li Xia has invited himself back to the court?
Zhao Yun felt something in his heart, and his trust in Jia Sidao had been reduced a little.
He picked up the secret letter and opened it...his pupils opened, and then his expression suddenly changed.
Ding Daquan had already knelt down.
"I request your Majesty to remove Li Xia from his post as Commander-in-Chief of Shu, and call him back to the court immediately! Please ask Your Majesty to send an important minister to promote Sichuan and Shu..."
Zhao Yun did not answer for a long time.
Jia Sidao squinted his eyes, thinking, and then sneered.
If you return to the court, you will return to the court. Those who have lost their authority are no different than dead...
