But following the nearly hundred dragon-elephant army, Zhao Huan saw Wang Lin's familiar figure standing under the Wujiao Pavilion in the back garden from afar. The two of them had drunk and talked.
A hint of joy flashed from Zhao Huan's eyebrows.
He waved his hand and ordered the guards to retreat at the arch of the back garden, and then strode to the meteor along the wet bluestone path.
If Wang Lin is here, his chances of winning will be 30%.
"Meet Your Highness!"
The joy on Zhao Huan's face fell on his eyes and suddenly shrank away on the Emperor's Sword worn by Wang Lin's waist. His face was gloomy and he stepped back several steps: "Wang Lin, what do you mean by sneaking into the palace ban at night?"
Wang Lin sighed: "Your Highness, you don't have to hide it between you and me. If you don't let Zhao Gou and me write that letter, can I come to the capital? And if I want to be unfavorable to Your Highness, even if you have the Longxiang Army beside you
There are thousands of people who can't stop me, so please rest assured."
Zhao Huan was stunned.
He was silent for a moment, but finally came.
"Crown Prince Zhao Huan received the order!" Wang Lin said lightly.
Zhao Huan's mouth twitched.
He looked at Wang Lin coldly, and Wang Lin shook his head, regardless of whether Zhao Huan had the dignity of accepting the order, and he announced the order himself.
"I'll tell the East Palace: In the past, Emperor Yao abdicated in Yu Shun, and Shun also ordered Yu. The destiny of heaven was not normal, but he only had virtue. Now, my Song Dynasty has lost its order, and surrendered to me. The chaos arose, and the treacherous slander.
The rebellion, the war is fierce and dangerous... The prince Huan has virtue, there is a beginning and an end, the imperial spirit surrenders auspiciousness, the gods tell the battle, the father is bright, the teacher is my order, and he all said that you will defeat Yu Shun,
Lead me to Tang Dian, respect the position of the emperor. I admire this! The number of heaven is in your hands, and I will hold it in it. The heavenly fortune will last forever. I hope that I will follow the great rituals and enjoy the whole country to honor the destiny of heaven."
Zhao Huan looked shocked.
This is actually Zhao Ji's abdication edict!
Zhao Huan hurriedly took it over and checked it carefully. Seeing that the emperor's jade seal and precious seal were complete, it was indeed the emperor's handwriting, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
If the emperor is willing to abdicate, why should he be the evil man who kills his father and the king, leaving behind an eternal infamy?
But Wang Lin said calmly: "Your Highness, the edict is not fake, it was drafted by the officials in front of the ministers. I guess this must be what Your Highness wants."
Zhao Huan said in a trembling voice: "Wang Lin, why did your father change his mind? Why did you sneak into the palace at night again?"
"I received your letter from Youth Highness and heard what Your Highness said, and guessed that Your Highness would take risks, so I rushed to the capital regardless of everything to stop Your Highness from doing things."
Wang Lin held the Emperor's Sword in his hand, raised his head and looked at the clouds all over the sky: "I know that your highness was framed, and I was forced to do this dangerous move, but have you ever thought that once you take the last step, you will completely fall.
After joining King Yun’s plan, he will be completely doomed!"
"I know, but I have no way out. Wang Lin, you are here just in time. I will definitely not let you down when I help me ascend to the throne."
"Your Highness, you have to think clearly. Now King Yun is good at dancing behind the scenes. He is just hoping that you will kill the king and seize the throne. Then he will attack him with righteousness. At that time, you will be in the forefront of human ethics and usurp the throne and father and father, and the justice will be clear.
, the great righteousness threatens, what can you do even if you ascend to the throne? The subjects in the world have a fierce intention. At that time, not only will you not be able to protect the throne, but you will not even be able to protect your life."
Zhao Huan was silent for a long time and said, "I have thought about all the things you said. I know that Zhao Kai forced me to do this, just to put me to death, but can I sit back and wait for death? I can only take risks and put them to death.
Younger.”
"I know that Your Highness is proud of his military power, and Zhang Shuye, Li Gang and Wu Min and others are also relied on the court. However, Zhang Shuye and Li Gang are famous ministers of the Song Dynasty. They may support Your Highness ascend the throne, and even support the abdication of the officials.
Because they are in their hearts, they believe that only in the Song Dynasty can one work hard to govern the country and eliminate the serious problems!”
"But if King Yun stood on the high ground of great righteousness and held the world's people surging, and a huge poop was pressed on His Highness, what could His Highness do? I expected that in the end, whether it was Zhang Shuye or Li Gang, he would abandon His Highness and ignore it.
, because they were famous ministers of the Song Dynasty and nobles, they were not afraid of death, but they regarded their reputation as life!"
Every word of Wang Lin’s words, every word, is like a sharp blade, and it penetrates deeply into Zhao Huan’s heart!
Zhao Huan's face was distorted: "If you said, I can only wait for death."
"I just ask your highness to endure for a few more days. If you have the official abdication edict in your hand, you can advance or retreat in the future. As the saying goes, with calmness, King Yun has already avoided His Highness here, what else can he do?"
"Your Highness may not know that King Yun has had a lot of contact with the generals of the border army. I have already grasped the evidence. The official also allowed me to act secretly and find out the matter, and to make your noble innocent. If you advance or retreat, your noble will decide for himself.
I shouldn't stop you from any of it!"
Zhao Huan's expression suddenly changed: "Zhao Kai actually had an affair with the generals of the border army? This traitor! I should have thought of it long ago. How could he be unprepared after planning for so long?"
"So, once Your Highness kills his lord and his father is in a bad reputation, the Yun Dynasty should be united in the outside world, civil officials, gentry, and imperial guards, and they will attack him in groups. Your Highness will instantly turn into powder, let alone the throne?"
Zhao Huan was sweating coldly, but the corners of his mouth twitched.
He originally wanted to stop killing and seize the throne by killing the king, and then use killing to calm all the controversy.
Anyway, success and defeat of the king, and the history books are in the hands of the victors. When Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty killed two brothers in the Xuanwu Sect, he later became a wise monarch for all eternity?
Moreover, in all dynasties, disputes over the throne have been bloody, and there are many coups in the palace. The usurpers have not had many chariots, and there are not many of them, Zhao Huan.
But if Zhao Kai hooked up with the border army, this would be difficult to deal with.
The border troops defended against the Liao people. If the border troops were morale to Zhao Kai, they would not be able to sit steadily ascend to the throne.
Besides, as Wang Lin said, and people like Zhang Shuye are actually a variable.
However, does he still have a way out?
I remembered that I was caught by Cao Rou's tenderness that day, and it turned out to be a big mistake. The problem was that as soon as he became a good thing, the government attracted the officials to capture the evildoer and fell into other people's plot. I could blame myself for being ignorant and stupid.
Wang Lin checked his face and knew that Cao Rou was sure of what happened.
"Tomorrow, King Yun and his group will have actions. In view of this, Your Highness should be called sick and retreat to the palace. At the same time, he ordered Zhang Shuye to calmly control his movements and watch the changes."
"As long as your highness gives me a few days, I will come up with a way to resolve the turbulent and dangerous situations. At this moment, our Song Dynasty is in chaos. If the army in the side starts, let the Liao people and the Jin people take advantage of the situation and the Song Dynasty will be destroyed! Please
Your Highness thinks twice before acting!”
Zhao Huan remained silent.
He was determined to believe in Wang Lin, but he was worried that he would make mistakes in one move and make every step wrong.
However, Wang Lin's words were like thunder, shocking his heart. He knew that what Wang Lin said was right, but Yun Wang and Zhao Kai... Thinking of Zhao Kai's insidious plots, anger surged in his heart.
Wang Lin knew that it would be difficult for him to make this decision, so he said silly: "If it is really a last moment, I will kill King Yun for Your Highness and make the world a decision!"
As long as Zhao Kai dies, the crisis will be resolved.
"If I have selfish intentions, I should retreat to Qingzhou at this moment, and let the palace change drastically, and just protect myself. Even if King Yun Yuji is with my 100,000 cavalry, he will not do anything to me at all!"
"I risked my life to enter the palace, but I can't bear to see Your Highness ruined and die in a bad life. I can't bear to see that I, the Song Dynasty, was already in turmoil, and it was still divided by this!"
Zhao Huan looked at Wang Lin deeply.
"Wang Lin, I have always been honest with you. At the last moment, I want to entrust my own son to protect my wife and children's lives. Well, if I can overcome this danger this time and be lucky enough to be in charge of my position, I will be the one who will be the one who will be in charge of my position.
This emperor, the queen, here is here to vow: If you bear to you in the future, you will die by thunder!”
Wang Lin thought to himself, if you don’t let me down, I will save your life. If you let me down, I will be unafraid.
...
Xiaoyue Garden.
Zhao Fujin was restless in the bedroom. It was almost dawn, and Wang Lin had not returned yet, so she was really anxious.
Yan Cui and Mu Lan comforted softly.
At this moment, I heard a creaking sound from the palace gate, and Wang Lin's figure flashed in.
Zhao Fujin blew over with a gust of wind.
Wang Lin had no choice but to open his arms and hug her.
Yan Cui and Mu Lan's faces turned red, so they quickly turned around.
Yan Cui also caught a glimpse of the Emperor's Sword wearing Wang Lin's waist.
She gently pulled Mu Lan, and the two women quietly left the hall.
At this time, Zhao Fujin didn't want to leave Wang Lin at all. No matter how they persuaded him, they wouldn't listen. Instead of doing this, it would be better to go out and help them release the news.
Just at night, Yan Cui had already paid some of the deacons and eunuchs in the villa, leaving only some close palace maids in the garden to prevent the news of Wang Lin from staying here.
Outside the hall.
Mu Lan sighed lightly: "Yancui, what should I do? I don't know why Master Wang is coming. The longer he stays here, the more likely he is to be discovered. The news is about to spread, so how can Emperor Ji deal with himself in the future
?”
Yan Cui lowered his voice and said, "I think it's okay. Have you ever seen the Emperor's Sword on Young Master Wang's waist? This shows that... he is at least allowed by the government."
"But... he lives in the same room with Emperor Ji, really..."
Yan Cui could only smile bitterly.
It's already messy. She has been hugging her for so long. She doesn't believe it if she says it's okay, but she doesn't believe it if she doesn't talk to outsiders.
...
There was a more bitter northwest wind in the morning.
The northwest wind swept across the entire Song Dynasty palace, and the temperature dropped.
However, after more than an hour of northwest wind, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, and the continuous autumn rain stopped, and the sky showed signs of clearing.
A group of people came up from the palace road from south to north, and the person who was walking on the stroll was a beautiful woman wearing a light white palace outfit, elegant and luxurious, about twenty-seven or eight years old.
The black hair like black jade is simply tied with a flying fairy bun, and a few plump and round pearls are randomly decorated between the hair, making the dark cloud-like hair look softer and more moist.
The beautiful eyes were filled with colorful colors, and the red lips were filled with a faint smile.
After stopping, the beauty turned her head and looked at Yanfu Palace, which was still vigilant, and the smile on her face instantly disappeared.
She walked away, looked at Yanfu Palace, whose palace gate was closed and sighed, then turned to look at Xiaoyueyuan not far away, and hesitated and said melancholy: "I haven't seen Maode for a long time, this child doesn't know
I'm getting better yet, so I'll go and see her now."
