Chapter 878: King Jin can

From Quanzhou to Bianjing, we first passed through the undulating forests on Fujian Road, and then we had to face the water network of Suzhou and Hangzhou. After staying in Suzhou and Hangzhou, the road ahead finally became wider.

With a huge coffin and a bustling prince, so many people didn't walk fast. It took more than twenty days to help the spirit team arrived at Guangzhou Prefecture on Huainan West Road. After passing Guangzhou, it was Jingji Road, and Bianjing was in sight.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter along the way, and the heat was coming. The long journey made everyone sweat profusely. Finally, a heavy rain came. At first, the team cheered and jumped in the rain for a few times. It was so good that it was good, but trouble also followed.

Although mud roads have gradually become popular in major towns, they are not as luxurious as to spread to the level of official roads everywhere. The official roads are still filled with mud. It is usually fine, but once it encounters heavy rain, it will immediately become scattered.

There are so many people in the team to help the spirits, and there are even more cars and horses. It is extremely difficult to move forward in the mud.

The guards could not bear it. After all, they were from the army. After so many years of training, they had already developed a bronze and iron bone. Not to mention that it was just raining and the roads were muddy. Even when there was hail, they went out for long-distance running and training. However, the princes and nobles couldn't bear it and complained one by one. Seeing that Shen Ao did not order to rest, they recommended King Zhao Zong of Jin to lobby.

It was the first time that Zhao Zong suffered such a great hardship. His face was dark and thin. In addition, the death of the emperor's brother had a heavy blow to him, and his spirit seemed very loose. He said to Shen Ao: "In such weather, I am afraid I can't rush to travel anymore. It's okay for us to say, but if the coffin of the late emperor was so bumpy, I'm afraid I couldn't bear it. It would be better to just set up a camp on the spot and make plans after the rain stopped."

Shen Ao laughed in his heart. He didn't expect that the father-in-law had the same scheming and knew that he could take out the late emperor as a shield. It can be seen that Zhao Ji, his brother, did a good job and protected him in his lifetime. Even if he died, he would give Zhao Zong a reason to avoid suffering. Thinking of Zhao Ji, Shen Ao became sad again. He thought to himself that although the coffin was heavily protected, and he had a felt cloth and a canopy was covered, there was no need to rush for a moment, so he would take a break. So he said, "Guangzhou City is only ten miles away from here. Everyone should work harder and go straight to the city to rest."

Zhao Zong felt relieved. Seeing Shen Ao's look of sadness, he comforted him and said, "You don't have to be too sad, people cannot be resurrected after death."

Shen Ao forced a smile and said, "Yes, Lord Taishan taught him a lesson."

Zhao Zong also became gloomy and sighed, "I didn't think anything when the emperor was there. Now I'm not here. It's really uncomfortable to have such a brother missing in the world."

At this time, it was Shen Ao's turn to comfort Zhao Zong. After saying a few words of comfort, Zhao Zong left with tears.

In fact, it is not only ten miles from here to Guangzhou, but a total of thirty miles. Shen Ao said this just to quench his thirst. Those noble princes and princes were the most casual and taught them to rush on the road. Either this one could not walk fast due to the wind and cold, or the one had a crooked ankle. Now, I heard that Guangzhou only had ten miles, and it could only take an hour to live in a warm and comfortable house to take a bath and change clothes, and immediately cheer up.

But the more I walked, the more I realized something was wrong, but I didn't care about it at this time. I had gone so far that I couldn't waste all my efforts, so I could only bite the bullet and keep up with the steps of the guards.

Chen Ao was better. Although he had not had enough bones to build up his body, he had been used to this kind of bumpy ride for so many years. At this time, heavy rain was pouring, and with his hat, there were still raindrops dripping along the eaves of the hat to his head. Chen Ao looked at the mist weather and felt a bit of loneliness.

Scouts had arrived first in Guangzhou Prefecture. Gwangzhou Prefecture He Wen was a little busy at this moment. It would be fine to welcome the coffin of the late emperor, the auxiliary emperor and others. The real question is how to welcome the law. Guangzhou is not far from Bianjing, and the news from the court can be reached in one or two days. How could He Wen not know the hatred between the auxiliary emperor and the new emperor? If he solemnly welcomes the auxiliary emperor into the city, it would be equivalent to offending the emperor. But if he is cold, he will inevitably offend the auxiliary emperor again.

He Wen has been an official for so many years, but he feels it is difficult to make a choice at this time. Needless to say, the emperor can tell his life and death with just one word. But the auxiliary king is not a role that can easily be provoked.

After hesitating for a while, he finally made a decision and would rather deal with it. No matter what, the emperor is the main leader in the world. No matter how powerful the regent is, can he compare with the emperor? Who have many powerful ministers in history who have a good ending?

So He Wen summoned local officials and passed on his instructions. He only taught an escort to take his men to the city gate to welcome him. As for the rewards, of course, they would be exempted if they could. If they wanted to enter the city, they would stay there, so they would find some inns for them to rest. It would be better not to see the auxiliary king and avoid suspicion.

In fact, there are not only one or two officials who have made this plan, especially Lufu north of Suzhou and Hangzhou. Many of them stay away from the auxiliary kings, so no wonder He Wenzai.

However, He Wenzai's attitude was unhappy. Zhu Sheng, the local commander of the wing army, was one of them. Zhu Sheng was a military officer. Originally, a military officer was nothing in front of the local prefect. Even if he was a fifth-rank official, He Wenzai could not show his face. However, when Zhu Sheng heard the disbandment of the Martial Arts School in the past few days, he had a lot of resentment in his heart. Although Zhu Sheng was not a veteran on the battlefield, he had fought in Xixia back then, and the lieutenant had a high status among military officials. Zhu Sheng wanted his son to apply for the Martial Arts School, but unfortunately he was not screened. Although it was a pity, Zhu Sheng still had a respect for the school.

The Martial Arts School was disbanded and the Auxiliary Emperor arrived in Guangzhou. Zhu Sheng was of course happy. No matter what, the Auxiliary Emperor was a legendary figure. The rumors about him may not be finished even if they were a day and a night. Since the Auxiliary Emperor came, it should be a good time, but who knew that the prefectural office had this attitude.

Zhu Sheng stamped his feet angrily, and then ran to He Wen to ask here. He Wen had already despised him as a rough man, and did not know that the battle between dragons and tigers in Bian Jing was the rule of the Song Dynasty. He Wen Zai did not give him a good look and directly asked someone to drive Zhu Sheng out.

If it were the past, Zhu Sheng would have endured it, but today he didn't know what kind of anger he got, so he cursed outside the prefect's office and took his own soldiers to the city gate to greet him.

Although this is just a small episode, the extent of the grudge between the emperor and the auxiliary king can be seen.

Chen Ao held the coffin and rushed into the city. Zhu Sheng immediately came to greet him. The prefect of the prefect refused to come to meet the coffin of the late emperor. If it were Chen Ao, he would have led his troops into the prefect's office and had to cure this shit. But Chen Ao seemed even more unpredictable now, and sat on the horse and was stunned, just said, "I know, I will clean up some places for us to rest."

Then he ignored it and settled in Gwangju.

At the same time, a knight arrived in Gwangju on a fast horse and visited Chen Ao that night. Chen Ao heard the word Jingde and was stunned, then said, "Go and call people in."

The person who came was a thin man with a goatee and a wet body, which was somewhat similar to Jingde. Chen Ao couldn't help but ask him: "What's your relationship with Jingde?"

This man said, "The villain Wuzhong is the nephew of the father-in-law Jingde."

Chen Ao couldn't help but smile and said, "No wonder it looks so similar. I think Jingde secretly gave birth to a son outside."

If someone says this, it will definitely be a satirical mockery of Jingde, a eunuch, how could a child be born? However, Chen Ao blurted out, Wu Zhong has no temper at all. If someone is willing to make jokes about you, it will also be a compliment. Therefore, the effect of saying different people will be different. You may not be able to say what others can say, and you may not be able to make jokes about others. This is also the reason for dealing with people.

Wuzhong was straightforward and said, "This time the villain did not come here at the order of his uncle, but was ordered by the Empress Dowager and wanted to ask His Highness a word."

"Oh?" The late emperor passed away, and the empress dowager became the empress dowager. When he heard these four words, Chen Ao did not dare to neglect, he curled his smile and said seriously: "You ask."

Wu Zhong said: "The Empress Dowager asked: Can Zhao's clan society be safeguarded?"

Chen Ao didn't hesitate for a moment and said seriously: "Yes."

Wu Zhong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "If Your Highness answers, the Empress Dowager said this, only a question is vain. But Your Highness said yes, and the Empress Dowager still has something to ask."

Of course, Chen Ao knew this mystery. Wei Qing was sitting and said, "But you can't help asking."

Wu Zhong said: "The Empress Dowager also wants to ask: So who can inherit the Grand Principality?"

This kind of words actually came from the mouth of the Empress Dowager, which was incredible, but Chen Ao knew that the Empress Dowager had made up his mind and didn't know what unethical things Zhao Huan had done, so that even the Empress Dowager had to come out to take the team. He hesitated and said, "The Eighth Prince of the Emperor Yi, Zhao Qi, is talented and generous in character, okay?"

Wu Zhong shook his head, "The Empress Dowager thought it was not possible?"

Chen Ao had no choice but to continue, "Then can the ninth prince of the emperor, Zhao Gou, be smart, kind and filial, inherit the throne?"

Wu Zhong still shook his head: "The Empress Dowager said no."

Chen Ao couldn't help but smile and said, "There is no need to be a mystery. Who can the Empress Dowager think?"

Wuzhong revealed his name, which was beyond Chen Ao's expectations: "Brother, I will be together, King Zhao Zong of Jin can."

Chen Ao couldn't help but be stunned. He had always known that the Empress Dowager was doting his second son, but he never expected that even such a big thing was so biased. It seemed that the Empress Dowager did not trust anyone, and so many grandchildren did not dare to entrust him. Chen Ao took a breath and said, "Okay, the Empress Dowager said that the King of Jin could, then the King of Jin could."

Wu Zhong smiled and said, "The Empress Dowager told him that if His Highness agrees with her, he will give him a generous gift." He carefully pulled out the brocade belt around his waist, and then teared the brocade belt, and a decree came into his eyes.

General Wu Zhong delivered the imperial edict and said, "Please check it out."

Chen Ao took over the imperial edict, and saw that the handwriting written by the Empress Dowager in person was stamped with the seal of the Empress Dowager. This imperial edict made Chen Ao's eyes lit up.

With the imperial edict, many things are much more convenient to do. Although it is just a name, these dynasties have paid attention to the rightful right in everything they do. Now with the imperial edict, although the duel between Chen Ao and Zhao Heng will not have much key impact, it can at least be helpful to Chen Ao.

"Now the new king is not kind... so much that the court is full of small nights. The kind and kind cannot be used, and the evil ones cannot go. The great Song Dynasty is already in danger. For the great Song Dynasty, the country of the country, the Ai family has passed on the imperial edicts in all directions..."

Chen Ao looked down with a gleam in his eyes, and then he said confidently: "Go back and tell the Empress Dowager that I am 90% sure."

After hearing this, Wu Zhong said with a smile: "Your Highness, that villain will go back and report his life."

Chen Ao was polite to him and sent him out rarely. Linmo instructed: "When you go back, tell me that Eunuch Yang is not in the palace. I am afraid he will take care of the matter in the palace."

Wu Zhong certainly knew what the word "control" meant, it was nothing more than a combination of inside and outside, and said, "Don't worry, your highness, uncle is determined to be the one who is in charge of your highness." He hesitated and said, "Your Highness, all the military and horses in Bianjing are in the hands of the emperor. Now the martial arts school has been disbanded again. When the villain came, he heard people's discussions that Your Highness must not enter the capital, otherwise... otherwise..."

Chen Ao smiled and said, "Otherwise, you will have different body and head, right?" Chen Ao's smile became cold: "The different body and head? The person in this world who can kill me has not been born yet. Don't worry, just go back and pass the message well, you will be benefited in the future."
