Chapter 312 Execution

The footsteps outside became clearer and clearer, and gradually a group of people appeared in the distance!

Seeing these people coming, Zhao Gou became even more excited!

But soon his excited expression disappeared, and he suddenly stayed there!

Most of the people in the distance were wearing black armor, with soldiers outside and generals inside. A group of generals surrounded him, a young man in bright yellow clothes was walking at the center.

In ancient China, there were only two types of people who could wear bright yellow clothes, one was the emperor and the other was the prince. However, Zhao Gou, the Jianyan Emperor, was in the Funing Hall, and his prince Zhao Yan was also beside him. Who was the person opposite?

"You...you..." Zhao Gou looked at the person blankly. He felt that the person's figure was more and more familiar, and his face turned pale!

Zhao Ding and Qin Hui had already seen the person opposite, both of them stood there blankly.

"See Your Majesty!" At this moment, the guards of the Jiangnan Imperial Camp at the door had already knelt down one after another.

"Let's flat!" Zhao Chen said lightly.

Zhao Chen had entered the Funing Hall at this moment. He did not go to see Zhao Gou, Qin Hui and Zhao Ding. His eyes were large in the Funing Hall, and there was a trace of memories and remembrance in his eyes.

"The Funing Hall here is exactly the same as the Funing Hall in Kaifeng Palace! When I was in Kaifeng Palace, I went to Funing Hall several times! It was the place of the dynasty, and my father often met with ministers there, and I used to listen to their affairs."

"I still remember it was April and May of the first year of Jingkang. Zhang Bangchang asked to see his father and ask him to build a palace! I told his father that the Jurchens are extremely powerful and have now destroyed the Liao Kingdom. I am afraid that it will be in the middle of the Song Dynasty! I advised my father not to build a palace and be careful of the Jurchens. Unfortunately, my father did not listen to me! When I left Funing Hall that day and saw the scene of singing and dancing everywhere in the palace, I felt like a disaster was coming!"

"After the Jurchen invaded, I advised my father again to move the capital to Jiangnan or Chang'an. But my father said that there were three northern towns here, so there was no need to be afraid! But not long after, the three northern towns were captured by the Jurchens, and all the 100,000 family troops were wiped out! When Zhong Shidao was dying, he advised his father to move the capital, but his father still refused to listen! At that time, I had to find a way to leave by myself! Now when I saw this Funing Hall, everything was vivid in my mind, as if it was yesterday."

Zhao Chen sighed softly.

He remembered Song Qinzong, and no matter what, it was his father. Although this father was extremely stupid, Zhao Chen could not tolerate him suffering in the north. Sooner or later, Zhao Chen would save his father.

"Your Majesty had such insights when he was young, and I was admired by you! Your Majesty is worthy of being the lord of the revival of the Song Dynasty!" Wu Jie said.

"It's a pity that I was still too young at that time. I still couldn't help Kaifeng avoid disasters without changing the power of the Song Dynasty! Later, when I arrived in Guanshan, I ascended the throne. Although I had to ask for oppression at the beginning, I endured it for a year and finally grasped the power of the court. This is why I have today's situation!" A smile appeared on Zhao Chen's face.

The two of them were talking here, and Zhao Gou stood alone, his whole body trembling.

Zhao Ying looked at Zhao Chen curiously, wondering who he was, why the clothes he wore were exactly the same as his father, and why did his appearance look a little similar to his father?

"Uncle, long time no see!" At this moment, Zhao Chen finally turned his head, looked at Zhao Gou, and said with a smile.

Zhao Gou was trembling all over. He opened his mouth, feeling his mouth was dry and he couldn't speak.

"Zhao Ding, we haven't seen each other for a long time!" Zhao Chen turned his eyes to Zhao Ding and said with a smile.

"Emperor Xuanwu, why are you here?" Zhao Ding took a deep breath and said.

"You are only allowed to plot against me, but not me? If you want to join forces with the Jurchens to deal with me in Guanshan, I will join forces with 30,000 soldiers from the Imperial Camp in Jiangnan to deal with you here! It seems that I have won!" Zhao Chen said with a smile.

Zhao Ding looked at Zhao Chen with his eyes, and a chill suddenly surged in his heart!

He had been on missions to Hanzhong twice and met Zhao Chen twice. This was the third time he had seen Zhao Chen. But every time he saw Zhao Chen, his impression was different.

When he first met Zhao Chen, he thought Zhao Chen was a puppet in Zhe Keqiu's hand. At that time, he felt that Zhao Chen was just a child, and it was not worth mentioning that Zhao Chen was definitely not a match for Zhao Gou.

When he met Zhao Chen for the second time, he saw Zhao Chen working as a carpenter in the house. At that time, he thought Zhao Chen was an unprecedented foolish monarch in China. It was not until the mutiny occurred on the wedding night that Zhao Ding felt something was wrong.

Now, of course he knew that Zhao Chen was enduring and using some ridiculous actions to paralyze the truth! Zhao Chen was only eleven or twelve years old at that time, and having such thoughts was heartbreaking to think about it!

Over the years, Zhao Chen first defeated the Jurchens, and then defeated Xixia. In the end, they had to join forces with the Jurchens to fight against Zhao Chen!

They thought that this battle between Guan and Shaanxi could eliminate Zhao Chen, but they were not sure that they had a better plan. Zhao Chen actually joined forces with the Jiangnan Imperial Camp to conquer Lin'an in one fell swoop!

His eyes looked at Zhao Chen carefully. Zhao Chen's body is no different from that of an adult. His expression is calm, but his eyes are determined to be firm, confident and intelligent. His appearance is not particularly handsome, and he can only be regarded as a middle-aged man. However, when he stood there, he felt as if he stood out from the crowd, and so many soldiers around him seemed to be foiling.

His imperial temperament cannot be concealed. He is far better than Zhao Gou, and he is better than the former Emperor Qinzong of Song and Huizong of Song! Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, no one seems to be able to compare with him except for the two founding emperors.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ding felt very sad.

He thought to himself that Zhao Gou was afraid of death, and Zhao Ding was afraid of death.

Bang!

At this moment, a muffled sound came from afar, and Zhao Gou suddenly fell to the ground with soft body.

Zhao Gou is too terrifying and it is difficult for him to stand up again.

"Father!" Zhao Yan had already rushed to Zhao Gou's side and looked at Zhao Gou with great concern.

"Who is this child?" Zhao Chen looked at Zhao Yan and said curiously.

"Your Majesty, this is the son of King Kang's rebels, Zhao Yan!" Miao Fu said.

Zhao Chen nodded. Over the years, the General Staff Headquarters have been collecting information about Jiangnan, including Zhao Yan's information. He had heard of this name, but he had seen a real person for the first time.

"Emperor Xuanwu, how are you going to deal with Emperor Jianyan?" At this moment, Zhao Ding spoke.

"Of course I will be killed without mercy!" Zhao Chen said.

"Emperor Xuanwu, you can't kill him!" Zhao Ding said.

"Oh? Why is this?" Zhao Chen said.

"On the same day, the Jurchens invaded and the world was in chaos. Emperor Jianyan was the Grand Marshal of the World. He summoned the rebel army in the north, and the number reached one million. After the Jurchens retreated, he returned to Kaifeng and Shangqiu area and forced Zhang Bangchang to abdicate. After that, he came to Jiangnan to stabilize the situation in Jiangnan. He also made great contributions to the country, so he should not be killed." Zhao Ding said.

"As a vassal king, he usurped the throne, which was a crime of great rebellion! As a Han Chinese, he discussed peace with the Jurchens, regardless of the safety of his father and brother, was unfaithful and unfilial, and everyone was punished!" Zhao Chen said.

"Emperor Xuanwu, are you so cruel?" Zhao Ding frowned.

"Brutal? If I fall into his hands, I'm afraid it's a dead end! When I was in Xiangzhou that day, I wanted to surrender to him, but he wanted to kill me! If he wants to kill me, I can't kill him?" Zhao Chen said.

"Emperor Jianyan had no choice but to force him to do that day! At that time, Kaifeng City had been broken, and His Majesty and all the princes were captured by the Jurchens. Only Emperor Jianyan and you, Emperor Xuanwu, escaped! Emperor Jianyan was older and should lead the world and stabilize the country! But Emperor Xuanwu, you were living in the world at that time. You are the crown prince. Although you are young, you have a respectable status! Only by killing you can the world be truly returned to your heart. He was just for the sake of the world, and he had no choice but to do so." Zhao Ding said.

"So, is it reasonable for him to murder me?" Zhao Chen mocked.

"It's not that it's reasonable. Many things are hard to care about right or wrong." Zhao Ding said.

"Even if everything is as you said, it's hard to worry about the fault of this matter. However, he actually made peace with the Jurchens! This is a traitor! I hate traitors the most in my life. A traitor is worse than a pig or a dog, so he must be executed!" Zhao Chen said coldly.

"The reason why Emperor Jianyan discussed peace with the Jurchens was because Emperor Xuanwu, you are too threatened, and he had to do this," Zhao Ding said.

"He and I are both children of the royal family of the Song Dynasty. You can handle any matters in your family! But if he wants to be a traitor, I will never allow it! The Jurchens have just occupied thousands of miles of our land and killed millions of our Han people. You will discuss peace with the Jurchens! Do you still have any skin and dignity? Have you ever considered the dead Han people? Have you ever thought about what the people in the world think?" Zhao Chen asked coldly.

Hearing this, Zhao Ding finally speechless and could no longer speak.

"I... can die! When it comes to the current situation, since you have led the army, I will definitely die! If I lead the army to Hanzhong and surrounded your palace, I will never let you go! However, I have something to ask for." At this moment, the Jianyan Emperor Zhao Gou, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly spoke.

"Tell me!" Zhao Chen said lightly.

"Xian'er is just a six-year-old child. He doesn't know anything. My actions have nothing to do with him. I hope you can spare his life." Zhao Gou looked at Zhao Chen with anticipation and said.

"He is just a child, I won't kill him." Zhao Chen said silent for a long time.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Zhao Gou was very happy when he heard this. He struggled to kneel down and kowtowed to Zhao Chen a few times.

"Your Majesty, you must not leave this child!" At this moment, Wang De, who was next to him, suddenly shouted together.

"He is just a six-year-old child. What should I do to kill him?" Zhao Chen frowned and said.

"Your Majesty, if you don't kill him, Zong Ze, Zhang Jun, Han Shizhong and others may not surrender to Your Majesty! They might try to rescue this child, use this child to make a fuss, support this child, and resist Your Majesty!" Wu Jie said.

"We just need to pay attention to this child! Over time, people will naturally forget this child." Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, you must not be kind to a woman!" Wang De said anxiously.

"Why bother with a child?" Zhao Chen said.

The six-year-old child in front of him looked very simple and his eyes were extremely bright. When Zhao Gou fell to the ground, the child's eyes were full of worry and care. Zhao Chen really couldn't attack such a child. What's more, this child is also a child of the Zhao family, and they all have the same bloodline. How could he bear to kill the child?

"Your Majesty!" Wang De shouted, trying to dissuade Zhao Chen again.

"Take Zhao Gou to the outside army and kill Zhao Gou!" Zhao Chen ignored Wang De and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhao Gou said gratefully again.

At that moment, several soldiers dragged Zhao Gou up and took Zhao Gou to the outside. Zhao Chen, Wu Jie and others followed, and Zhao Ding and Qin Hui were also taken to the outside.

Zhao Yan was still here, and soldiers would watch him.

Wang De still did not leave. He looked at Zhao Yan with a trace of fierce light in his eyes.

"What are you...what are you going to do?" Zhao Yan's small body trembled and said in horror.

Wang De gritted his teeth, suddenly pulled out the Yitian Sword from his waist, and stabbed Zhao Yan on the opposite side with a sword.

Suddenly, a scream came over!

Wang De's sword had already passed through the six-year-old's chest and came out from his back. Zhao Yan's face was pale and blood was in his mouth.

His eyes looked at Zhao Gou who was being taken away in the distance, full of pain and attachment.

"Xian'er!" After hearing this scream, Zhao Gou in front also screamed.

Zhao Chen and others also stopped suddenly. Zhao Chen turned around and saw the six-year-old child slowly lying on the ground and closing his eyes, a hint of anger flashed through his eyes.

"I said that he is a six-year-old child, don't bother with him!" Zhao Chen said in a little angry.

Wang De had already put the sword on the ground at this moment, and he walked towards Zhao Chen and knelt in front of Zhao Chen.

"Why do you do this?" Zhao Chen shouted.

"Your Majesty, I will be guilty! I will violate Your Majesty's will and ask Your Majesty to punish me! But I will still say what I think." Wang Dedao.

"Say!" Zhao Chen said.

"When I was in Kaifeng that day, Your Majesty had the kindness of knowing the Mo General, and Mo General was unable to repay him! Later, Mo General took His Majesty away from the Kaifeng Palace. Mo General watched His Majesty grow step by step to this point and become the real king of the Song Dynasty! Mo General would never want to see Your Majesty influence the country because of the kindness of a woman! Your Majesty could not bear to do anything, Mo General would do for Your Majesty! All the punishments and humiliations are borne by all!" Wang De lowered his head and gritted his teeth.

Zhao Chen glared at Wang De, but he didn't know what to say and didn't know how to punish Wang De.

"Your Majesty, the military orders are like a mountain! The last general committed a serious crime of resisting the order. Please punish him!" Wang De said again.

"Send it first, and then punish it later." Zhao Chen suppressed his anger and said lightly.

He strode forward, and the soldiers behind him immediately followed.
