Chapter 627 Tokyo chaos, Zhao Ji’s restoration (3)

Zhao Xuan laughed loudly: "Why do you think so lowly of yourself, Your Highness? The Song Dynasty was founded hundreds of years ago, and Wang Lin usurped the Song Dynasty and became emperor only a few years ago. All the people in the world were once the people of the Song Dynasty. They are loyal to the Song Dynasty."
That’s right, as long as Your Highness’s banner of righteousness is held high, there will be many followers.”
Zhao Yan sneered in his heart.
Emperor Yan made the people at the bottom of the world well fed, clothed, and able to live and work in peace and contentment, making the country rich and the people strong.
People all over the world now have long abandoned their belief in the so-called Song Dynasty.
Moreover, Emperor Yan's prestige is deeply rooted in the public. He has long been deified by the people and put on the same altar as Confucius. How can ordinary people easily shake him?
Zhao Yan still sees this very clearly.
In the former Song Dynasty, the situation had long since passed, and people's hearts were completely corrupted.
It is undoubtedly wishful thinking to expect people from all over the world to help restore the Zhao and Song royal families.
Besides, why did Emperor Yan Wang Lin guard Wu Song in Kaifeng and set up a left-behind department of Jin Yiwei in Luoyang?
It is nothing more than tightly monitoring the Zhao Song clan.
It is impossible to say that Zhao Xuan and Shi Yucheng's actions have already fallen into the Jin Yiwei's investigation.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yan broke out in cold sweat.
He felt helpless and sad in his heart.
He was once again dragged into an earth-shattering disaster.
But this time, it is really hard to say whether he can escape from danger again.
Seeing that Zhao Yan still wanted to refute, Zhao Xuan's patience was finally worn away bit by bit. He sneered and said: "Okay, Your Highness, don't push back anymore. To tell you the truth, no matter where you are from,
, If you still don’t obey, we will raise the banner of His Royal Highness King Yi in Luoyang, and we will fight against the Yan and restore the Song Dynasty in the coming days!"
The mask of hypocrisy was finally torn apart.
Zhao Yan looked at Zhao Xuan silently.
Zhao Xuan looked cold, slightly cupped his hands and said: "This matter has been settled. His Highness is waiting in the palace with peace of mind. When the incident will occur, Xuan Zi will come and tell His Highness."
After that, Zhao Xuan walked away with a puff of his sleeves.
Looking at Zhao Xuanyuan's retreating figure, Zhao Yan felt a burst of sadness and couldn't help but burst into tears.
…
Jinyiwei Luoyang stayed behind at Si Yamen.
This is a special Jinyiwei yamen independent of Henan Province and Luoyang.
It is directly under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Guard Yanjing Command and Envoy Division, is not subject to local control, and has a detached status.
Therefore, although Ma Kun, the commander of the left-behind department, was not of high rank, his political status in Dayan was no less than that of Luoyang Prefecture Yin.
Ma Kun is one of the confidants trained and supported by Yan Qing.
Placing Ma Kun in Luoyang shows Yan Qing's trust in him.
In recent days, Luoyang Jinyiwei's 500-person staff has been working in shifts almost day and night, and the atmosphere has been very tense.
Ma Kun has already noticed that the storm in Luoyang City is coming and the undercurrents are surging behind the scenes.
In addition to promptly reporting to the Yanjing headquarters, Ma Kun also urgently contacted the branch of Jinyiwei in Kaifeng. The combined manpower of Jinyiwei in the two places is almost 2,000.
But Wu Song, who was in Kaifeng and was in Henan, had 20,000 troops under his command.
Therefore, Ma Kun does not think that some people in Luoyang are ready to stir up trouble.
As long as the Luoyang incident broke out, Wu Song's army would arrive at the city within two or three days.
Luoyang Jinyiwei has monitored the changes in the clan houses of Zhao Xuan and Zhao Yu.
The stupid and greedy Zhao Xuan thought he was doing things in secret, but he didn't expect that all his actions were under the control of Jin Yiwei. Ma Kun has not touched him so far, but he just wants to lure the snake out of the hole.
The military order passed back yesterday by the Yanjing Commander of the Jin Yiwei was the emperor's own handwriting with the words "wait and see what happens."
Ma Kun understood what the emperor meant.
The emperor wanted to play a big game, and in the emperor's plan, Zhao Xuan and Zhao Yan alone were not enough to make it happen.
…
Yanjing.
Luoyang Jinyiwei reported the changes in the Zhao clan in Luoyang every day. Although the news was delayed by two days, it was basically the latest situation.
In the imperial study, Wang Lin pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked at Yan Qing and smiled lightly: "Xiao Yi, how do you think they are going to start an uprising? Capture Luoyang? Raise the banner of the Song Dynasty and order the world to be diligent?"
Yan Qing pondered and bowed: "Your Majesty, I think that they have been plotting in Luoyang for many years. The local officials in Luoyang must have been infiltrated by them. Even the officials of Henan Province are very likely to become their party members. They are just plotting to seize
Luoyang, and then separatist power in Henan, do you think you can compete with His Majesty?"
Wang Lin slowly shook his head: "It's possible, but not necessarily. What I'm a little curious about is why they came to Zhao Yu? In the Luoyang clan, if we talk about the most famous person, Prince Zhao Ji, not only Zhao Yu."
Yan Qing cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, it may be because Zhao Fei has a weak temper and is easily manipulated."
Wang Lin smiled: "Xiao Yi, I'm still saying what I said, wait and see what happens, don't scare the snake. I just want to see what kind of trouble they can make. In addition, tell Ma Kun of Luoyang Jinyiwei that anyone who is not involved in the conspiracy
The rebellious heirs of Zhao Ji, if you can save one more person, it will be counted as one, and do not bring disaster to innocent people."
Yan Qing was silent for a moment, then suddenly lowered his voice and said: "Your Majesty, why not take advantage of this moment..."
Although Yan Qing had not finished what he said, how could the emperor not know the profound meaning of his words.
Yan Qing meant that it would be better to take advantage of this case to implicate the Zhao and Song clans in one fell swoop, eradicate them all, and avoid future troubles forever.
Wang Lin fell silent.
Recently, not only Yan Qing, but also Han Ting have been privately and secretly advising him to be cruel to the Zhao and Song royal family.
Even the queen in the palace, Han Yan, vaguely revealed this meaning.
Wang Lin was silent for a long time, and then said lightly: "Xiao Yi, I am not soft-hearted, nor am I kind to women. But the situation between me and the Zhao Song royal family is somewhat special. Fujin, Chongde, Jiade and other girls are by my side. After all, they
They are close relatives of flesh and blood. I can't bear to see them heartbroken, and I don't want to be unable to get along with them in the future.
Don't worry, they can't touch me. I've said before that I have a big heart, a big heart, and a tolerance. I'm willing to live in peace with the Zhao and Song clans and keep them safe and prosperous for the rest of their lives.
I believe that most people are still safe. The sooner a few ambitious people jump out, the safer it will be for me and Dayan.
You don’t have to say it anymore. I know it well. Although I became the emperor, I don’t want to be a person who kills humanity for the sake of imperial power. Of course, my tolerance is only for innocent people, those careerists. They will eventually understand that I
My methods and my decisive killing are not something they can afford."
Yan Qing bowed and did not dare to say another word.
The emperor still has an innocent heart, especially for the women around him, which is actually a good thing.
But if people in the world mistake the emperor's sincerity and original intention for indecisiveness and a woman's benevolence, that would be a big mistake. Whoever thinks this way will be doomed.
Yan Qing did not believe that an emperor who dared to face an army of tens of thousands alone, and who could kill three people in and out of the army, and who had killed countless heads of foreign enemies by his subordinates, would be a soft-handed emperor.
