After the Southwest Army showed its combat effectiveness in Xiangyang City, Yuan Zhao Tianzi was a little panicked, he put all his energy on firearms, and threw his mind on the general as a prisoner, and he really thought too little about other aspects.

With the current background of the Great Jin Dynasty, even if there are no firearms, there are many, many ways to deal with the Southwest Army.

One of the simplest is to take advantage of the southwestern army's eastward advance, divide troops to make a detour to attack Jincheng in the southwest, and besiege Wei to save Zhao.

Even if you can't defeat Jincheng, you can share a lot of thoughts from the Southwest Army, and you can also think of ways to cut off the grain route in the southwest, so that the Southwest Army, which is alone in the east, will lose supplies and have to turn back to rescue the southwest.

But the Son of Heaven pounced on the firearms, and the highest decision-making level of the imperial court had a big problem, and he was actually pushed under the capital by the Southwest Army.

The whole process was much smoother than Li Xin's previous estimate.

Even if it was beaten to the city by the southwest army, the imperial court still had many opportunities to turn the tables, for example, when the Hanzhou army attacked the city last night, if there was no problem with the two battalions of forbidden troops, then even if Li Xin had three heads and six arms, he could only touch his nose and go home, and it was impossible to enter the imperial city so easily.

Hou Jingde was captured by accident, there is nothing he can do, but as long as the Son of Heaven can think a little more, a key person like He Xiang will definitely not be missed.

It was a fatal mistake.

The Son of Heaven didn't know if it was because of fear or for other reasons, his face was extremely pale at this time, he gritted his teeth and looked at Li Xin, his voice was hoarse: "Master Li, I ...... I would like to say a few words to you individually. ”

Li Xin frowned slightly and said, "I still have a lot of things to deal with. ”

This sentence is not to reject Yuan Zhao Tianzi, but to tell the truth.

If the Southwest Army had wiped out all the living forces of the Great Jin Dynasty at this time, and had entered the capital in a bright and bright manner, Li Xin would not have to think about anything at this time, just reorganize a court, but now it is different.

The current behavior of the Southwest Army is a bit similar to the "Renchen Palace Mutiny" more than ten years ago, which cannot be regarded as a rebellion, but can only be regarded as a coup d'état.

In the final analysis, the Southwest Army still does not have the ability to confront the entire Great Jin Dynasty head-on.

Therefore, even after his successful coup, there is still a lot to do.

Now the Southwest Army only occupies the imperial city, but the world of the Great Jin Dynasty is not something you can say if you occupy the imperial city, there are still hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops and tens of thousands of Ankang soldiers and horses outside the imperial city, if the problems in the capital are not properly solved, even if Li Xin kills the people in the imperial city, it is useless.

He now wants to control the people in the imperial city first, then go out to solve the problems in the capital, and then win the support of most of the generals, and then put the six princes on the throne and let the court run again, so that he, Li Chang'an, can act on behalf of the Son of Heaven and hold the supreme power under the heavens.

Entering the Imperial City is just the beginning.

The Son of Heaven took a deep breath and said in a somewhat pleading tone: "I ...... Just a few words. ”

"Then please Your Majesty later, I will deal with some urgent matters first."

Li Xin turned his head to look at Shang Shutai's house, bowed his head slightly, and said: "Fang Xiang, please also ask Shang Shutai to draft an order, ordering the forbidden army and the Ankang army in the capital, as well as the Jingzhao Mansion, the soldiers and horses of the city gates, and all the forces in the capital to immediately put down their weapons and stop fighting." ”

At this time, the sky has already brightened, how long Hou Jingde and He Xiang can suppress the two battalions of the forbidden army, no one can say, there is no shortage of loyal ministers and righteous people in the forbidden army, and they can also use the emperor's order to fool around at night, but when the day dawns, these people may not be subject to Hou Jingde and He Xiang's control.

The house's face was slightly ugly, and he snorted: "It turns out that Marquis Li also has times when he is afraid." ”

"This kind of thing, I haven't written it in Shangshutai, and I can't write it!"

General Li's face was cold: "It's better to be more interesting, now your lives are in my hands, kill all of you, and I am not without literate people in my southwest army." ”

"I can also cover the seal of your Shangshutai myself."

General Li was expressionless: "Fang Xiang himself is not afraid of death, will the entire Qinghe Fang clan not be afraid of death?" ”

After hearing Li Xin's words, the house's face became extremely ugly, and he turned his head to look at the Son of Heaven with difficulty and asked for the Son of Heaven's opinion.

was controlled by Li Xin in the imperial city, and the Son of Heaven had already given up resistance at this time, and he said dejectedly: "It's better to do it." ”

"There are enough dead people, there is no need for a few more unjust souls."

When the prime minister of Shangshutai heard this, they all burst into tears, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the Son of Heaven, and the left servant of Shangshutai shot tears all over his face, and wept and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers are incompetent...... Your Majesty is tired of this great calamity......"

"I don't blame you."

The Son of Heaven was like a deflated ball, he had no strength all over his body, and his voice was hoarse: "Zhuqing...... If you can live and live, I can't protect you, so you can protect yourself. ”

In Weiyang Palace, Ma Yu knelt down in a row of ministers, all weeping.

In the main hall of Weiyang Palace, there was a choked voice.

General Li was expressionless, turned his head to the Son of Heaven and said, "Your Majesty moved to the side hall?" ”

The Son of Heaven nodded silently, and with the support of the great eunuch Xiao Zheng on the side, he came to the side hall of Weiyang Palace.

The Son of Heaven was supported by Xiao Zheng, followed behind Li Xin, and walked into this side hall.

There was no one around, and the Son of Heaven finally didn't have to hold on to his imperial temperament, his face was even paler, and he bowed to Li Xin: "Teacher." ”

Li Xin originally turned his back to the Son of Heaven, but when he heard this, he glanced back at him, and his tone was calm: "At this time, this sentence of "teacher" may not be able to save your life." ”

Yuan Zhao Tianzi is almost a mortal situation, even if Li Xin does not kill him, the "Southwest Group" under Li Xin will try every means to kill him, in this case, it is difficult for him to have a way to live.

"I ...... I don't have the luxury of surviving. ”

The Son of Heaven looked up at Li Xin, and there was a pleading in his voice: "Uncle...... You are also half of the Ji family, the ladies of the palace, please be merciful......"

Li Xin's wife is the princess of Qinghe in the Great Jin Dynasty, and these ladies in the palace are all his relatives.

It is worth mentioning that because the two generations of the Great Jin Dynasty did not live long, there are still many concubines of the Chengde Emperor who are still alive, including the imperial concubine of the Chengde Emperor, the biological mother of the Taikang Emperor, Li Xin's mother-in-law, and the current Empress Dowager, who are still alive and well.

This is not surprising, when the Chengde Emperor died, he was only forty-six years old, even if he has lived to this day, he is only in his early sixties, which is not a particularly old age, this empress dowager is a few years younger than the Chengde Emperor, just turned sixty this year, and her body is healthy, and there is no problem in living for another ten or twenty years.

Li Xin nodded silently: "Don't worry, I won't touch them at all." ”

"From now on, they will still live in the imperial city."

"Thank you, uncle."

After the Son of Heaven gritted his teeth and said this, he finally couldn't support it a little and sat down on the soft cushion in the side hall.

He looked up at Li Xin. The voice trembled.

"Uncle, after the sixth brother ascended the throne, ......"

"Will Da Jin still have the surname Ji?"

This is the most critical question, if the world is still surnamed Ji in the future, then he is at most a short-lived emperor, but if the Great Jin Dynasty dies, the world changes his surname, and he is the king of the Great Jin Dynasty!

Li Xin was silent for a while, and was about to give a set of official explanations, but he looked at Yuan Zhaotianzi's somewhat pitiful expression and decided to tell him the truth.

General Li frowned slightly and opened his mouth to respond.

"I don't know."
