Chapter 1416: Storm Wave Pavilion

Xiangyang Prefecture, Xiangyang Prince's Prefecture.

After the war between the Kang Palace, which lasted for more than ten days, the Kang Palace where Zhao Gou lived became the Xiangyang Palace. Although he, the King of Xiangyang, was destined to be a very short-lived tragedy, he could leave his name in later history books.

In the following years, the King of Jingchu was most dependent on the Western Song Dynasty, and at the same time maintained considerable independence. The policies pursued were different from those of the autonomous regimes in Guanlong and Bashu.

Many years later, the Jingchu Palace will become a very important regime entity in the history of the latter Three Kingdoms and play a major role in the historical process.

At the same time, many Kings of Jingchu became famous figures in later history!

As the second generation of King of Jingchu in the Jingchu Palace, Zhao Gou, who had the title of King Xiangyang (the titles held by King Jingchu are different in each generation). He is undoubtedly the one with the most miserable consequences among Kings of Jingchu in all dynasties.

However, in the autumn of the first year of Jingkang, Zhao Gou, who had just succeeded King of Jingchu, didn't know that he was a big tragedy, and he thought that he would really get the foundation of Jingchu and become a overlord!

However, although Zhao Gou, who was a leader in the area, was only nineteen years old, he still realized something was wrong.

One overlord should be very majestic, and there should be a group of civil servants and military generals under his command to protect him. But he, the overlord, seems to have no confidant to use it...

It would be fine if there was no confidant, but on the day he bid farewell to the Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji, he clearly felt the strong hostility of the Jingchu army.

When the Supreme Emperor boarded the ship and left, all the three armies who had bid farewell burst into tears. Although they did not kill Zhao Gou for Zhao Ji, they still had feelings for the benefactor who gave them land!

But he didn't like Zhao Gou, a disobedient son.

So after being the King of Xiangyang for dozens of days, Zhao Gou still felt that he was not much different from when he was a filial son of the Supreme Emperor. It seemed that he could not grasp any power!

In addition, why did Yue Fei, who led his troops to attack Kang's Mansion for more than ten days, not receive any punishment? He is still leading troops in Xiangyang Mansion with great swagger.

How can this be done? Is there any other kingly law?

However, there were still things that made Zhao Gou feel relieved. After the Supreme Emperor left Xiangyang, the official Zhao Huan immediately issued an order to transfer the 11th Division of the Infantry Army stationed in Henan Prefecture to Xiangyang.

The elite soldiers transferred from Henan Prefecture must be elite troops in the court, right?

When the elites of the imperial court arrive, can we arrest Yue Fei, a traitor?

Oh, it’s not the fateful enemy of Zhao Gou and Yue Fei. It’s mainly because of Yue Fei’s existence that makes Zhao Gou too embarrassed. A general who led his troops to attack him for more than ten days and almost killed him was still domineering in front of him!

Who else would take him, King Xiangyang seriously if this continues?

Seeing the arrival of the imperial army, Zhao Gou's back became hard.

We are preparing to attack Yue He and Yue Fei, the warlords of the king and son, and to establish Zhao Gou's prestige in Xiangyang Prefecture.

However, he also knew that he was a short-seller, so he was going to find a few accomplices before taking action.

The main accomplices were three people. The first one was Niu Gao, the battalion general of the royal palace guard camp; the second one was Zhang Xian, the royal palace who had just been transferred from Guanzhong; the third one was Qin Hui, the chief censor who was stranded in Xiangyang Palace for some reason.

Qin Hui took the idea and asked Niu Gao and Zhang Xian to arrest Yue Fei... and also wanted to use more than 10,000 Hebei troops led by Yue Fan as a backing. The plan was really foolproof!

In the flower hall in the back garden of the royal palace, Qin Hui, Niu Gao and Zhang Xian, who were invited in the name of viewing flowers, looked at each other, not knowing what to say to this king.

"What? Do you think it's wrong?" Zhao Gou seemed a little nervous.

This was the first time he planned to take someone's life! Speaking of which, no matter how he did it, he was young and energetic, and he didn't think about the consequences at all.

But even if you think it clearly, it's useless...

"King," Qin Hui replied, "Yuehe, Yue Fei are all generals of the court after all... Without the will of the official, how can we arrest him?"

Niu Gao also said: "It is better to impeach Yue He than the king. Yue Fei is planning a rebellion. As long as the official's order arrives, will it be easy for the father and son of Yue family to be in trouble?"

Zhang Xian also echoed: "The army in Xiangyang City is all the soldiers of the court. How can we punish the general without an order? Although the king is in charge of the affairs of the King of Jingchu's palace, he does not have the right to behead first and then report."

As soon as the three people in front of him were reminded, Zhao Gou also felt that this was the reason, so he asked: "Why would we and the four of us jointly report?"

Qin Hui said, "There is no need for this? The king is the lord of Jingchu and has the right to secretly report the matter. How can we and the ministers jointly sign? It is better to submit various memorials."

"Yes, yes, how dare I join forces with the king?"

"A king reported a secret memorial, and the father and son of the Yue family must be doomed..."

Zhao Gou thought about it and it seemed that this was the case.

The arrest of Yue He and Yue Fei must be prepared according to the pre-substantiation and suddenly attacked. Before the matter was finalized, it would be better to submit a secret note... In this way, even if the official thinks it is inappropriate, it is not easy to leak the secret, so that the father and son of the Yue family are prepared.

"Okay! I will submit a secret letter to the official family!" Zhao Gou focused on it, "Just consider the crime of being a domineering father and son of the Yue family and being self-respecting!"

Qin Hui said on the side: "King, this sin cannot kill the father and son of the Yue family."

Zhao Gou was stunned and swept Niu Gao and Zhang Xian with his eyes. The two martial artists are now sitting there in a big manner... At best, they are the title of ambassador, how dare they sit on an equal footing with the king and the chief minister? Even if the king asks them to sit, they should only sit half of their butt, hold their knees with both hands, and look like they are sitting on pins and needles. How can they sit like this way now?

These two are a bit domineering...

The warriors today are really disrespectful, and there are few who are not domineering.

"Zhongcheng, then should I participate in Yuehe, what crime should Yue Fei be guilty of?"

Qin Hui said: "Of course it was a rebellion! A few days ago, his father and son led their troops to attack the royal palace, which is iron proof! The iron proof is as strong as a mountain, can they still be denied?"

"Yes! We should participate in their rebellion!" Niu Gao also echoed.

"Okay! Let's participate in their rebellion!" Zhao Gou focused on the topic.

However, at this time, Zhao Gou probably wouldn't have dreamed that Yue He and Yue Fei also submitted a memorial to impeach Xiangyang King Zhao Gou's disobedience and unfiliality!

As a son, Zhao Gou actually cruelly expelled his father, Emperor Zhao Ji, which is very unfilial!

The Song Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety. How could an unfilial son become a loyal minister of the court?

Zhao Gou's expulsion of his father and his power will undoubtedly be a thief, and he will definitely be a rioter in the future!

Zhao Gou was involved in Yue He, Yue Fei rebelled, Yue He, Yue Fei was involved in Zhao Gou being a thief... Two memorials were placed on the desk of the official Zhao Huan at the same time.

Both books are secret copies, but they were read by Xiaohuangmen to a group of prime ministers in Chongzheng Hall.

After hearing this, the important officials looked at each other, and no one spoke, and they didn't know what to say...

What happened in Xiangyang is strange and can drown people if the water is deep. Who dares to jump into it if you don’t know the inside story? Who will drown?

Zhao Huan paused and said, "Then recall Yue He, Yue Fei and King Zhao Gou of Xiangyang to Chang'an and let them confront each other in the court. What do you think?"

"Your Majesty!" Qu Duan, the Tongzhi Privy Council, spoke immediately, "Yuehe, Yue Fei are both military officers!"

This is to remind Zhao Huan, Yue He and Yue Fei cannot be interrogated by the Censorate and Dali Temple, but must be interrogated by the Privy Council and the Ministry of War.

A hint of unhappiness flashed across Zhao Huan's face, "I know! After the confrontation, the four halls of Dali Temple, the Censorate, the Ministry of War and the Privy Council will be tried."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Qu Duan said.

Since Qu Duan, who represents the military, said that Zhao Huan Shengming was clear, the matter of summoning Zhao Gou and Yue He and Yue Fei and his son to Chang'an was finalized.

As for the one who carried out this mission, it was Qin Hui, the chief censor, who was naturally the chief censor, which was really suitable! Zhao Huan didn't know if he had the foresight, so he actually sent a chief censor to enthrone the King of Xiangyang, and when he finished the matter, Qin Hui was stranded in Xiangyang.

Now Zhao Gou, Yue He and Yue Fei are all brought back to Chang'an Prefecture together.

Along with him was a battalion of royal palace guards led by Niu Gao. More than a thousand soldiers and generals were escorting Zhao Gou, Yue He and Yue Fei, and they all rushed towards Chang'an Palace.

"Zhongcheng, when he left Xiangyang the day before yesterday, why did there be many officials who sent Yue's father and son on the dock, but they were very cold to the Lone King?"

After leaving the jurisdiction of the Jingchu Prince's Mansion, Zhao Gou suddenly asked a question to Qin Hui who was walking with him.

"Oh," Qin Hui smiled, "After all, the father and son of the Yue family are from the Jingchu army, and the friendship between comrades is always there. The officials on Jingchu are not familiar with the king, so they are naturally a little restrained and not cold."

"Is that true?" Zhao Gou always felt something was wrong after hearing Qin Hui's words.

Not a little bit, something is wrong!

"Zhongcheng, the official said that the Lord King and Yue He were confronted by Yue Fei. What should the Lord King say?"

"This..." Qin Hui thought for a while and said with a smile, "The king said it's true."

"To be honest?" Zhao Gou frowned, "Does the Chief Secretary want the Chief Secretary to tell the official family that the Chief Secretary once ordered someone to tie up the Chief Secretary and wanted to hand it over to the Supreme?"

Qin Hui shook his head quickly, "No need to say this... Just say that when Yue Fei led his troops to attack, the king was calm and composed, commanded and guarded the royal palace, defeated Yue Fei's troops repeatedly, and finally forced the Supreme Lord to leave Xiangyang Palace and go to Chengdu for maintenance."

"Is it OK to say that?"

"Okay," Qin Hui smiled, "Seiguan and Niuying Generals said so too... The Xiangyang incident was decided this time, and it was entirely the king's credit!"

"Is it the Lone King's credit?" Zhao Gou still felt something was wrong. He was scared and he was so scared that he could not make any credit?

But why did the Supreme Emperor leave? It was not his own credit, so how could he explain this?

"Don't worry, your king," Qin Hui smiled. "The king has made great contributions in Xiangyang. The official family will definitely reward the king with great importance. In the future, the officials will rely on the king to support him."
