After Shao Song

Chapter 174 Extra Thirteen: The King's City of the Underworld Chapter

Where did Zhao Jiu go?Not only were his ministers and followers in the underworld very concerned, but the ghosts living in the legendary and mysterious royal city were even more concerned about this issue.

For example, Zhao Kuangyin was in a very bad mood today.He stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhao Chang like a chicken. He said with an evil look on his face: "You are already dead. Where is your father? Could it be that your boy was too unfilial and made him so angry that he refused to come over?" Are you reunited with us?"

Zhao Chang only felt that a scapegoat had been thrown out of the sky, and he could not be more aggrieved. "Taizu, I have been in power for 18 years. My father has been the emperor for 16 years. I dare not go against his wishes in any matter. As soon as he opened his mouth, I didn’t dare to disobey him, how could it be my problem!”

This makes sense, He Zhen is kind-hearted, and can't stand it anymore, "Yuan Long, what are you doing? Put this child down quickly, he is a good emperor. I don't think this child Xiao Jiu will really follow him. He usually cares about it."

Zhao Kuangyin put him on the ground.He snorted, but still gave face to his wife, and said nothing. Is it because you are still reliable, can you not get beaten when you come down?

But then again, with the wealth that Zhao Jiu has left for you during his 44 years of reign, if you still don't do well, you will be like the second emperor of Qin and Sui Yang, and go directly to hell.

Zhao Ji sighed quietly on the side, "We are both the Supreme Emperor, why are there such big differences?" His unfilial son obviously did not hold power, but no one dared not listen to his words. He lived his life wantonly, and his ancestors still praised and coaxed him. Thinking about it.What about him?I'm still getting beaten up to this day. If I stop getting beaten up one day, I'm sure I'm going to hell.

Zhao Huan quickly stopped his father, not looking at Taizu Taizong. Is there something wrong in his eyes?If you want to get beaten, don't take me for a ride.Therefore, he quickly added: "Brother Ninth's contribution to Sheji has been incomparable to the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty since ancient times. It is impossible to say that heaven and earth can no longer be restrained by him. He became a god directly after his death. That's why we are not allowed to meet each other. Ancestors Zong should be happy for him."

Zhao Heng said sarcastically: "Yes, it is possible. But you two believe in Buddhism and Taoism and believe in heavenly soldiers and generals. Why don't you see heaven and earth make you gods, and instead you suffer here?"

That's right, Song Zhenzong was mocking Zhao Ji's behavior of advocating Taoism for more than 20 years, and Zhao Huan's mysterious operations of Six Ding Liujia during the Jingkang period.

Zhao Zhen followed his father's footsteps and added, "Others say I don't know how to do Pepsi, and I only know how to be an official. I don't think you two know how to do Pepsi, let alone be an official."

Zhao Guangyi was annoyed by their quarrels and shouted, "Shut up, everyone. Xiaojiu is not here, you bunch of useless dim sum still think you are capable, don't you?"

Meng Ruji was doing handicrafts aside, and sighed: "Taizong said it is true. This child Xiaojiu is also true. Even if he becomes a god after death, he should leave us a message. My mother is worried when my son travels thousands of miles."

Thanks to Queen Mother Wei not wanting to be here, no one competed with her, so no one denied that she was Zhao Jiu's legal mother, including Zhao Chang, who was also a grandmother.

To be honest, it would be much more honorable for Emperor Zhezong to be his grandparent than Emperor Huangling of Song Dynasty.

The Liao Kingdom was also unhappy because the Yelu Dashi traveled too far to the west. According to the rules of the underworld, it was beyond their jurisdiction. Therefore, the founding king of Western Liao could not reunite with his ancestors and could only communicate with each other.

Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but ask some friends of Tang Taizong and Han Xuan Emperor to help find Zhao Jiu's whereabouts.

The emperors of the Han and Tang Dynasties readily agreed, without asking for any reward at all.Who wouldn't want to make friends with such an outstanding emperor?

But the problem is, I really can't find it.It really echoed Bai Juyi's poem. "The blue sky above is poor and the yellow spring is below, and both places are nowhere to be seen."

Tang Taizong sighed while beating Tang Xuanzong Li Longji again to relieve his inner resentment.

Yes, this is the emperor who created the prosperous age of Kaiyuan and the Anshi Rebellion. It is not clear whether he is a faint emperor or a wise emperor, so he has to continue to stay in the royal city and be driven by his ancestors. However, since the humiliation of Jingkang, he has rarely been beaten.

Because all the emperors in the previous dynasty felt that their children were pretty good in front of the two saints who combined the most absurd things in the world.

Zhao Kuangyin naturally would not hinder Li Shimin from educating his children and grandchildren, and returned to Taizu's house in a depressed mood.Thinking of an excuse, he sent He Zhen out and asked Song Yun, who was meditating quietly on the side, "You really don't know where Xiaojiu went?" Song Yun was speechless: "Husband, you seem to have asked this question in private. I have asked for my concubine dozens of times. The cultivation levels of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty and Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty are similar to mine, and they can’t find her. Why do you think I can find her?”

Although I am the queen of the Song Dynasty, in fact, I have never had children in my life, and I have no blood relationship with Zhao Jiu at all.

Zhao Kuangyin was choked by his little wife and said unhappily: "Who told you to hide so many secrets after you came to the underworld? Occasionally, I would only tell you something if I asked you anxiously. You were not like this when you were the queen."

Song Yun was speechless, "Why do officials say such things? If I had such a city before, how could Wang Jien, a thief, be deceived by Zhao Guangyi after you passed away? De Zhao and De Fang were divided into two. I feel a little regretful when I think about my death."

Of course, whoever becomes the emperor, I am the legitimate empress dowager. How can I be the embarrassing emperor's sister-in-law and suffer for 20 years?
When Xiaojiao's wife brought this matter up, Zhao Kuangyin couldn't refute it anymore. This is the way it is, so he could only comfort him, "He is a guy who can only conspire internally. Even I was deceived by him. How old you are, it's normal for you not to be his opponent. I also beat him up a few times to vent my anger on you? Don't be sad about this matter again in the future. "

Song Yun replied: "I am not sad because the officials love her so much. It's just that I have repeatedly deduced that I really don't know where Xiaojiu is. But today's officials may encounter some difficulties."

It was related to the national destiny of the Song Dynasty. Zhao Kuangyin suddenly became interested and asked hurriedly: "What is the difficulty? Please tell me carefully."

"There is the Heijiang River in the north, and it is exploited every year to make a lot of money. And Han'er in Liaodong controls this area of ​​interest. He has already been dissatisfied and is preparing for action. He almost wants to completely destroy the Jurchens, take these places into the Song Dynasty, and follow his example Grandfather, he changed his land and returned it to his native land, and established states and counties."

"Isn't this nonsense?" The founding king had his own political vision. "Xiaojiu didn't really kill the Jurchens back then. Firstly, it was too cold and uncivilized there, and secondly, he had the intention of slowly Chineseizing them. Now that decades have passed, the effect is obviously very good. I am also in the imperial court They didn’t make less money. Why do they have to be eager for quick success? In a few decades, how will they be different from the Song people? If they have the energy, it is better to rectify the salt merchants in Huaihe and eastern Zhejiang."

"The officials know everything. But this child was almost robbed of the crown prince because of the Liaodong Group's support for his elder brother. I hate these Liaodong Han sons very much. I am dissatisfied that they hold huge profits and threaten the royal family at every turn. And I especially yearn for it. His grandfather’s achievements, I’m afraid he won’t take such a long-term view.”

"As a young boy who has just ascended to the throne, he will naturally be manipulated by some veterans and noble groups. Not to mention his grandfather, he is any wise king. His prestige is also built up bit by bit. Soldiers are the most important thing for the country. How can he act so easily? If I had known he had such a temper, Xiaojiu should not have forced him to become the prince." Zhao Kuangyin said angrily, he has been happy for more than 50 years, is my Song Dynasty going to have another setback?

Fortunately, Zhao Jiu's judgment of people is not so bad. The new official Zhao Zhiming appeared to be sharpening his sword against the Liaodong Group, but in fact it was just a cover. He used lightning speed to clean up the increasingly large southern landowners and The salt tea seller also quoted Shizu's ancestral instruction: "Whoever dreams of a hundred thousand acres of fertile land will be annihilated." This made a group of prime ministers who often used Emperor Shizu's teachings to suppress him speechless. .

Zhao Chang sighed with emotion, "I really made a mistake. I didn't expect this kid to be quite sinister."

Zhao Xu patted his grandson on the head and cursed with a smile: "What are you talking about? How can you govern the country if you don't have any imperial ambitions? Just be content with having a son like this."

Anyway, the Zhao Zhiguan family in the human world was quite happy. They reported the good news to their grandfather and father, and also gave a large amount of tribute.

It's easy for Zhao Chang to say that he has a mansion to clean up by himself (the Empress Dowager Han is still alive), and all of Zhao Jiu's stuff was stuffed into Xing Bingyi's mansion. In view of the fact that there are too many literati, merchants, soldiers and even storytellers among the people to worship the ancestors, Zhao Chang can't do anything. Sometimes I have to move some things for my aunt.

Although the ancestors would force the two saints to work, Zhao Chang also had to think about it.

Xing Bingyi always sheds tears with his emperor's heir at this time, "Why can't the official be found everywhere? Does he dislike my concubine, so he doesn't come to see me?"

This was the eldest aunt, so Zhao Chang could only coax him, "Don't think too much, my dear. Daddy is not that kind of person, otherwise how could he be so doting on his two sisters? Maybe, maybe he has some good luck, after all. He was always surprising in life, and he should be in death as well."
