Chapter 893

Zhao Bing sat in a box and felt in a mess. He gradually changed from anger to frustration. Thinking about his hard work for the country, what he gained was being questioned, criticized and framed again and again. This wedding was also a reluctant transaction. The bride was not his favorite, and the wedding was not his wish, but he compromised for the sake of governing himself. However, the cost of this wedding was enough to destroy the economy that had just recovered from the Song Dynasty, and to make it difficult for him to establish a thrifty style. At the same time, the increased tax broke the previous promise and damaged the prestige of the court and his own.

"Chen Dun, prepare horses!" Since you don't cherish it, why bother to be an outsider? The more Zhao Bing thought about it, the more angry he became. He suddenly stood up and shouted to Chen Dun who was guarding outside the hall.

"Official family, it's getting late, where are you going?" Wang De said anxiously when he saw this.

"Chen Dun, can't you hear it? I asked you to prepare a horse!" Zhao Bing did not hear the response, nor did he pay attention to Wang De. He shouted loudly and stood up and walked out.

"Official family..." Wang De has been with the little emperor for so many years, but has never seen him feel so arrogant. He was impulsive and didn't know what he would do, so he stopped him and knelt down and said.

"I want to go out of the city to relax, you don't have to stop me!" Zhao Bing was confused and felt that his chest was about to be blown up. He wanted to leave here, vent his anger and depression, and push Wang Dedao away.

"If the official is angry, you can beat him up. Don't keep it in your heart. Take care of the dragon body." Wang De blocked the little emperor and kowtowed.

"Your Majesty, what happened?" Chen Dun also entered the hall at this time. Seeing the little emperor full of anger, Wang De stopped him and asked in a daze.

"Go and prepare horses, I just want to relax!" Zhao Bing shouted at Chen Dun.

"Your Majesty, the palace ban has reached its lock, so let's wait until tomorrow!" Chen Dun had already seen the abnormality of the little emperor. He was on the verge of a rampage, so how could he dare to let him out? So he made up a reason.

"Can't the lock be opened if it is dropped? Go quickly!" Zhao Bing became even more angry when he heard this, and pulled Wang De aside and said.

"Your Majesty also knows that after the lock of this palace is locked, the key is not on the General's body, and you have to ask the Queen Mother to open the lock." Chen Dun spread his hands and said helplessly.

"Smash the lock and blow the door open. Can't you open the door without a key? What do I want you to do?" Zhao Bing pointed at Chen Dun and shouted.

"Hehe, I don't dare. This is the rule set by Your Majesty. If the palace gate is blown up, my head will fall off!" Chen Dun gestured on his neck with his hand and said with a smile. He could see that the little emperor was already stunned by anger. He could even say the words to bomb the palace gate, and he didn't dare to let it go.

"Okay, okay, you all disobey me..." Zhao Bing became even more angry, and his fingers almost poked his forehead.

"Why is Your Majesty angry?" Seeing that the little emperor sat back on the box angrily, Chen Dun squatted down and asked Wang De softly.

"Isn't it because of the queen's dowry? The government wants to cancel the wedding because it costs too much and hurts the country's foundation. You must keep a look at it and don't let the government leave the palace, otherwise we will never return. We will die and not forgive us!" Wang De glanced at the little emperor and said in a low voice.

"Oh, no wonder, Your Majesty is reluctant to eat or wear it. He saved some money to spend a clean life for the wedding. No wonder he got angry." Chen Dun said with great sympathy.

"Shh, don't add fuel to the fire anymore, otherwise the government will leave with anger, and the world will be in chaos." Wang De was shocked by hearing Chen Dun say such irresponsible words, just a childish person was angry, and with another disaster, the two of them could not do anything together.

"If Your Majesty really leaves, you must bring me with you, and don't leave the last general behind!" Chen Dun did not obey Wang De's warning and came to the little emperor and said.

"Oh, why?" Zhao Bing asked with a dark face and turned his head.

"Of course I'm happy to follow His Majesty!" Chen Dun said without hesitation.

"Well, I'm pretty conscience!" Zhao Bing nodded with great relief.

"Your Majesty, let's ask people to prepare horses and pack the cages and take them away." Seeing that the little emperor agreed, Chen Dun immediately stood up and called for someone.

"Let's go quickly, what are you doing with these things?" Zhao Bing said strangely.

"Your Majesty, what are we going out of the palace without money? Besides, these things are all His Majesty's belongings and they have not taken advantage of the court, so what's the harm!" Chen Dun said.

"Wait a minute, you say that these things are mine." Zhao Bing asked suddenly, asking.

"Of course, although these dowries were purchased by the court and the palace, they were only sent back after a walk around the Wu family. After all, aren't they still His Majesty's?" Chen Dun explained.

"Well, it makes sense. I didn't suffer any loss by saying that?" Zhao Bing's expression was a little slower, and he thought.

"What are you losing? Your Majesty not only made a fortune from the court, but also picked up a wife for nothing. It was obviously a big profit!" Chen Dun said with concise words.

"It seems to make some sense!" Zhao Bing said thoughtfully after hearing this.

"Of course it makes sense. If Your Majesty regrets the marriage right now, not only will he return the dowry, but he will not be able to recover the money spent in the early stage. That would be a huge loss!" Chen Dun said again.

"That's right, that's the case!" Zhao Bing nodded.

"It is a trivial matter for the official family to lose money. The Wu girl was dismissed by the official family and could only live in the mansion, which would ruin her life!" At this time, someone said on the side.

"Why is Sister Su coming?" Zhao Bing turned his head and looked at him in confusion.

"I have sorted out clothes in the Western Paradise Palace. I heard that the officials were clamoring to regret the marriage. After leaving the city, I have packed up some clothes for the officials, so as not to change them on the way." Su Lan said with a cold face, and then handed over a pack of clothes to Chen Dun.

"Oh, it seems that I will leave no matter what!" Zhao Bing sighed and stood up, "Chen Dun gathered the team, packed some valuable things here, left the city overnight to the Navy Wharf, and rushed to the sea before the tide."

"It's... Your Majesty!" Chen Dun was stunned for a moment.

"Official family, Miss Su is just talking angry words, don't take it to heart!" Seeing that the matter was going to be bad, Wang De didn't dare to disturb the queen mother easily. Thinking that he heard Su Lan's most often, he quietly ordered someone to invite her, but he didn't expect that the little emperor who had changed his mind would leave again. He was shocked.

"Of course not, you can do it yourself!" Zhao Bing said with a chuckling.

"Have the officials forgotten their vows to restore the country and now they want to abandon the country and leave?" Su Lan initially thought that the little emperor must have a child's temper because he felt sorry for money. He wanted to arouse him, but he did not expect to backfire. He saw him lift his legs and left, and chased after him and said in a hurry.

"It's not that I abandoned the Song Dynasty, but that the Song Dynasty abandoned me. Now the Tartars are eyeing each other across the river, but they don't think about how to strengthen the defense of the river and build weapons to defend the enemy. Instead, they use huge taxes to go to the wedding. If this continues, it will take less than a year or two to die again. I'm just taking one step first, so as not to be the king of the devastated country and be scolded by the people!" Zhao Bing snorted coldly.

"Did the official family abandon the ministers and brothers who have followed for many years for their own selfishness?" Su Lan asked again.

"As long as I step out of the palace gate, I will no longer be the emperor of the Song Dynasty. There is no way to guarantee anything to give them, but I still think that I will voluntarily come and go. I will never force or force them. They are willing to come and come and surrender when I find a place to settle down." Zhao Bing sighed softly.

"Your Majesty said very well, but my subordinates have decided. No matter what the ends of the world, they will never regret it." Chen Dun promised again, thinking about it but said, "But..."

"But what?" Zhao Bing looked at Chen Dun and said.

"But it is a pity that my subordinates saw Jiangnan, which was beaten with the blood of tens of thousands of soldiers, bowing them to the people like this. I think after His Majesty left, the Tartars would soon make a comeback and the people were slaughtered again. How innocent were they?" Chen Dun sighed softly.

"Everything is determined. The Song Dynasty should have been completely destroyed eight years ago in Yashan. I originally wanted to be able to turn the tide and keep the country alive, but who would have thought it would be like this. Everyone said it was for my own good, but it was just to play with me and obey their arrangements. In this way, I will return the throne to them, so why should I bury them with them?" Zhao Bing said indignantly.

"Your Majesty must be so angry that he was so angry today!" Chen Dun had no choice but to say with a sad face.

"Official family, wake up!" Wang De was even more in tears, and he grabbed his hand and said sobly.

"Official family..." Su Lan knew the sadness in the little emperor's heart best. Over the years, he endured humiliation and dealt with various forces. Sometimes he had to give in and compromise against his will. The accumulation of so much resentment finally made him collapse.

"Do you go and tell the Queen Mother to come and persuade me?"

"Official family, you are not... are you okay?" Several people were out of their minds and were lowering their heads and sighing when they suddenly heard the little emperor talking. Wang De looked up at the smiling Majesty, but the style changed too quickly, which scared him very much.

"Your Majesty is not leaving?" Chen Dun looked at the little emperor who was shaking his legs, and said in surprise.

"Who said I was leaving? I slept on firewood and tasted gall for ten years before I recovered Jiangnan. Seeing that the Central Plains were looking at me, I gave Jiang Shang to those prodigal sons because of such a thing. Aren't I stupid?" Zhao Bing said with a smile.

"The official family is teasing the little one! But it scared the little one to death." Wang De said in a crying voice, and sat on the ground with his legs weakened. It seemed that he was really scared.

"Hehe, I just want to try if one day you really lose the throne and are forced to wander around the world, will you still follow me?" Zhao Bing said with a smile, "It's a pity that some of you can't stand the test, and even pack the package for me. You must hurry up and leave!"

"If the official family can't even get through this little thing, I can only blame me for being blind and wrong master!" Su Lan said solemnly without a smile on her face.

"Miss Su is also sincere to the official family. She has worked hard for the wedding day and night, sorting out and modifying the newly made clothes," Wang De quickly smoothed out.

"Oh, Your Majesty hasn't tried it yet. Go and try it quickly. If there is any inappropriate thing, please let Sister Su modify it so that it will avoid making mistakes at the right time." Chen Dun also quickly asked for his Majesty.

"I know you are all for my own good, but I am really angry about this matter today. A wedding not only hollowed out the warehouse, but also consumed most of the national treasury. If the Mongolian Yuan suddenly attacks or a major disaster comes, what can we do to deal with it? But from the Empress Dowager and the Ministers all said that this matter was for my good, so I didn't even have anyone to complain. You are all close friends to me, so I can only talk to you and exclaim the depression in my heart." Zhao Bing put away his smile and sighed.

"I know that the official family is depressed, but the official family is the lord of the people. They are doing great things that will benefit the people and be recorded in history. If you are angry with such a small thing, how can you fulfill your ambition to command the people, lead the army to recover the Central Plains, and shed the horse border!" Su Lan said seriously.

"What my sister said is that I was too intense!" Zhao Bing bowed to Su Lan and smiled apologized.

"Since the official family is here, I will go and check out the newly made clothes. If it is not suitable, I still have time to modify it!" The little emperor was like this, and Su Lan couldn't stand it anymore and said with a angrily smile.

"Oh, I haven't worn a dragon robe yet, of course I have to take a look first." Zhao Bing sighed. When he succeeded to the throne in Yashan, not only was the time rushed, but the environment at that time was not allowed to be made, so he could only make do with a yellow robe instead. After arriving in Qiongzhou, although he had the conditions, he thought he was growing up. It took a lot of time and cost a lot of money to make a dragon robe, so he still had not made it. He still did not have a real crown robe available until now. Speaking of which, if it weren't for this wedding, it might have been delayed.

"The official family is devoted to serving the public, but is still slandered by those villains. It is really worth pulling out their tongues!" Wang De said angrily after hearing the little emperor's outline.

"Don't go, you must guard the hall well. There is one thing missing here. I will definitely make you look good!" Zhao Bing left the hall and turned to the side hall. Chen Dun followed him, and he stopped him and said.

"This... I obey the order!" Although Chen Dun was extremely curious, he could only bear it and took a break and arranged for officers and soldiers to be on duty and strengthen inspections.

"Oh, it's so beautiful!" There were clothes newly made for Zhao Bing and his concubines in the western part of the palace, but he saw the robe with golden light at a glance, and stepped forward and stroked and exclaimed.
