. Therefore, Shi Miyuan made up his mind and said: "In the imperial city, the guards are tight, there are 16,000 troops stationed in the city, and other forbidden troops are stationed outside the city, and it doesn't take a moment to enter the city to support, and it may be difficult to storm the imperial city." And if we fail, we will all be killed. Our life and death are small, but if Your Highness is affected by this, won't you and I be able to escape the blame? ”

Zong Tianxuan said: "Although what Master Shi said makes sense, but three days later, it will be the birthday of the faint monarch, and the whole city will celebrate at that time, and the guards will definitely be relaxed, which is a good time for us to start." And in the past two years, I have been training people again, and now there are more than 300 people, all of them are ten, and the disciples of my Tianji Palace are all good at martial arts. When the faint monarch dies, only His Royal Highness will be able to inherit the throne at that time, and who will dare to disobey. As long as His Highness ascends to the throne, the overall situation will be in our control. ”

Shi Miyuan listened to Zong Tianxuan's words, and wondered in his heart, this kid was so bad, he actually dared to plot a coup d'état and change the dynasty, Zhao Kai was really blind, he would treat this guy as a treasure, and obey him, no wonder he would be so miserable.

He thought that the celebration held by the emperor was the same as that of ordinary people's festivals, and the more lively it was, the more lax it became. But I don't know that the more times like this, the more heavily guarded the whole city becomes. Moreover, since Zhao Chen succeeded to the throne, several large-scale celebrations have been held in a row, and he has quite a wealth of similar experience, and now Yang Yan has also moved back to the dynasty, Princess Yong'an, Cao Xun, Gao Zhen and other powerful military figures are all in Beijing, and it is not easy to start a rebellion.

And what is the purpose of the rebellion? It is only counted after Zhao Hong is given the throne.

Therefore, in terms of taking 10,000 steps back, even if Zhao Chen can be killed by luck in this rebellion, it does not mean that the rebellion will be successful. thought that as soon as Zhao Chen died, only Zhao Hong would be left in the Zhao family, and the other ministers would support Zhao Hong as the emperor, Zong Tianxuan thought too seriously. Now these ministers in the court were all people who followed Zhao Chen and Zhao Kai as enemies back then, and if they wanted to support Zhao Kai's son as the emperor, wouldn't they be seeking skin with the tiger? And there is Yang Yan here, when the time comes, the ministers will never make Zhao Hong the emperor, at most, they will select one person from other clans to be the emperor, and make a wedding dress for others in vain.

However, looking at Zong Tianxuan and Zhao Hong's confident appearance, it seems that as long as Zhao Chen dies, all the other ministers will immediately kneel at Zhao Hong's feet and shout long live. Shi Hongyuan also knew that it was useless to tell them the truth, so he could only persuade them from another angle. Therefore, he said: "Does Your Highness think that as soon as the faint king dies, the ministers will immediately support His Highness as the emperor?" This is impossible. ”

Sure enough, as Shi Miyuan expected, as soon as he heard this, Zhao Hong's face immediately changed, he stood up suddenly, became emotional, and said sharply: "As soon as the faint king dies, I am the only man in the Zhao family, and only I can inherit the throne, who dares to disobey?" ”

Shi Miyuan said lightly: "Your Highness, please be careless, if others don't say it, you will dare to disobey Yang Yan." ”

"Yang Yan?" Zhao Hong and Zong Tianxuan said at the same time, Zhao Hong actually didn't have much of an impression of Yang Yan originally, and his understanding of Yang Yan was all heard from Zong Tianxuan. Zong Tianxuan naturally didn't say good things about Yang Yan, so in Zhao Hong's heart, Yijing listed Yang Yan as Zhao Chen's number one accomplice, and he was also his second enemy. ”

Shi Miyuan said: "Your Highness should know that when Emperor Guangzong collapsed, the ministers originally unanimously supported King Xiandeng as the king, but Yang Yan held the military power and oppressed the hundred officials with his power, so that the hundred officials had to submit to him, so that the faint monarch was established as the emperor." In the next theft, Yang Yan's move was actually harboring evil intentions, this person had the ambition to establish himself as the emperor, but at that time, the royal family's kindness was still there, and the people's hearts were not convinced, so he set up the faint monarch as a puppet to reassure the people. Now although the faint monarch is in his position, but the power of the court is all in the hands of Yang Yan, and most of the ministers are his henchmen, just waiting for the full-fledged wings and the time is ripe, Yang Yan will force the faint monarch to give way, usurp the throne, change the dynasty, and seize the Great Song Dynasty. ”

In fact, anyone who has a little understanding of the current situation of the Great Song Dynasty will find that what Shi Miyuan just said is completely full of loopholes and completely inconsistent with the facts. It is not said whether Yang Yan has the ambition to usurp the throne, but in fact, Yang Yan does not hold any power in the court at all, and he cannot have the merit of usurping power and seizing the throne. However, Zong Tianxuan and Zhao Hong were both ambitious, and in their hearts, they had already believed that Yang Yan had the ambition to usurp the throne, so they both believed in Shi Miyuan's words.

Zong Tianxuan immediately said: "What Master Shi said is extremely true, it is precisely because of this that we should act as soon as possible and help His Highness ascend the throne in order to stabilize the country and society of the Great Song Dynasty." If you wait until Yang Yan's traitor usurps the throne successfully, the Great Song Dynasty will fall, and then want to recover, I'm afraid it will be very difficult. And once Yang Yan succeeds in usurping the throne, the next step will be to attack His Highness. ”

Shi Miyuan shook his head and said, "What Mr. Zong said is very wrong, if we start now and kill that faint monarch, we will only kill Yang Yan in vain, so that he does not have to bear the crime of killing the monarch, and he will ascend to the throne." ”

Zhao Hong and Zong Tianxuan were both shocked, obviously Shi Miyuan's words touched the two of them. Zhao Hong was stunned for a while before he said, "Then will the ministers let Yang Yan usurp the Great Song Dynasty?" ”

Shi Miyuan snorted and said, "What can the ministers do?" Didn't you let Yang Yan support the faint monarch to succeed to the throne? What's more, most of the current DPRK and China are Yang Yan's henchmen. And the faint monarch has no heirs, Yang Yan and the faint monarch have the suitability of Lang uncle, so after the death of the faint monarch, his son will be succeeded to the name of the faint monarch, so that he can inherit the throne in the name of the emperor, although he has not kicked the foundation, but this great Song Jiangshan has since changed his surname to 'Yang'. At that time, His Royal Highness will be executed for the crime of killing the king, and Yang Yan will be able to sit back and be his emperor without worry. ”

Zong Tianxuan and Zhao Hong both pondered for a while, and Zong Tianxuan said: "What Master Shi said is reasonable, this action is too inconsiderate, so according to Master Shi's opinion, what should be done?" ”

As soon as Shi Miyuan said this, he knew that it was his nonsense just now that played a role, and he was a lot more relieved, and immediately said: "Cancel this operation immediately, and then send everyone back, don't leak the news, and be known by Na Dujun and Yang Yan." Then let's take the long view. ”

Zhao Hong was also depressed, although he wished to launch a coup d'état a day earlier and ascend to the throne, but he was also convinced of Shi Miyuan's fool just now, and asked: "Is there any good way for Master Shi?" ”

Seeing that Zong Tianxuan and Zhao Hong both asked him for advice, Shi Miyuan was also very proud in his heart, this is just the first step, I believe that it will not be long before they will make them obey their words and become dolls in their hands. Said: "First of all, His Royal Highness returns to Lin'an, continue to wait in the palace, don't have any dissatisfaction, you must pretend that nothing happened, you must be very respectful to the faint king, remember, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, and the person who has become a big thing since ancient times, that one is not the one who endures humiliation and bears the burden." ”

Zhao Hong nodded and said, "Master Shi, please rest assured, I will definitely be able to do it." ”

Shi Miyuan said to Zong Tianxuan again: "After Mr. Zong goes back, he will continue to lurk in Taihu Lake and secretly recruit people, but don't stretch out, let alone conflict with the government. I will pay part of the expenses. Then gradually transfer people to Jiankang to lurk, I will give them a proper placement here, and even arrange some people to be in the army as internal responses. In this way, as soon as we have the opportunity, we can start in Jiankang immediately, and we will no longer wait for people to be transferred from Taihu Lake. ”

Zong Tianxuan said: "What Master Shi said is extremely true, after I go back, I will immediately do what Master Shi wants." ”

Next, Shi Miyuan and Zong Tianxuan discussed how to develop their strength, how to hide and arrange, how to avoid the investigation of the government, how to contact and other matters. His ability to see is much higher than that of Zong Tianxuan, so the arrangement is well organized, and Zong Tianxuan can't help but nod his head when he hears it, only then he knows that his previous set is simply like a child's house.

Although Zhao Hong couldn't intervene in these things, he could also hear that what Shi Miyuan and Zong Tianxuan talked about was some basic arrangements, and as for how to launch a coup d'état and make himself ascend to the throne, he didn't say a word. When their conversation came to an end, Zhao Hong finally couldn't help it, and said, "Master Shi, I don't know if you have any way to kill that faint monarch without giving Yang Yan's traitor a chance?" ”

Shi Miyuan said with a straight face: "Your Highness, seeking power and seizing the throne is still a matter of life and death, if you are not completely sure, you must not act rashly." Your Highness must not be in a hurry. Moreover, the strategy of seizing the throne should change randomly and follow the situation, and there is no definite plan. So what we have to do now is to be patient, carefully arrange, and wait for the time to come, and then we can strike a blow. ”

Zhao Hong was still a little unwilling, and said: "So how can the time be ripe?" ”

Shi Miyuan scolded this kid in his heart for being so anxious to become the emperor, but he still patiently explained: "First of all, Yang Yan must leave Jiankang, only in this way can we ensure that when we raise righteousness, Yang Yan cannot interfere from it, and when he returns to Jiankang, maybe we control the overall situation with the scriptures, and secondly, Jiankang's first reserve must be empty, only in this way can we take advantage of it." These two points are necessary, and as for the other conditions, they can only be determined by the situation at that time. ”

Zong Tianxuan also knew that what Shi Miyuan said was the truth, and said: "Your Highness, what Master Shi said is extremely true, please ask Your Highness to be calm and patient." ”
