Five Escape 4

After the distribution was completed, everyone set out separately. Monk Wanyan Chen returned to the barracks and instructed Daduchen and Shang Jingliang to collect the soldiers to clean up Zhan Yang and find a secluded place to meditate and exercise.

I don't know how long it took, but most of the ministers came to find Monk Yan Chen in a panic and said, "Monk Chen, Uncle Chen, they are here, get ready to greet them." ”

When the sky was about to dawn, Han Yanzhi hurried to the palace and asked to see Zhao Yan.

The chamberlain immediately went in to report, and after waiting for a while, the chamberlain came out and said, "Han Shumi, the official family has an edict, please come with me." ”

Han Yanzhi followed the chamberlain in, saw Zhao Yan, and after the salute was finished, Han Yanzhi immediately said: "Your Majesty, just now Yang Yan sent someone back, now Huzhou is lost, Wei Sheng is loyal to the country, Liu Bao, Li Quan and others do not know the whereabouts, now the Jin army can go to Lin'an, please Your Majesty do not hesitate, immediately prepare for the chariot battle, leave Lin'an, and go to Tanzhou for a while." ”

Zhao Yan's expression changed, and he said, "Wei Sheng is loyal to the country, so what about Yang Yan?" There he is? ”

Han Yan said straightly: "Yang Yan met Wei Jiao, the son of Wei Sheng, halfway, and knew that Huzhou was lost, so he immediately ordered Ma Junsi to select Liu Fuwu and Wei Jiao to return to Lin'an to report the news, and went to Chongde by himself. ”

Zhao Yan was silent for a while, and said to the attendant beside him: "Proposed to appoint Wei Sheng as the envoy of the Baoning Army, give the title of Praise Loyalty, and after defeating the Jin Army, build a temple in Jiangkou Town, Zhenjiang Prefecture, and draw up a nickname, and add Wei Jiao as a martial arts doctor." He said straight to Han Yan: "Ziwen, you should remember that Wei Sheng is loyal to the country, and now he is loyal to the country, and the son of Wei Sheng should be treated preferentially in the future." ”

Han Yan was stunned and said, "Your Majesty, it's better to leave Lin'an as soon as possible." ”

Zhao Yan shook his head and said: "I have long said that if the city of Lin'an is broken, I will die for the country, and I will never steal my life, and this statement will never change." As he spoke, he took a holy decree that had been written long ago from the case, asked the chamberlain to hand it over to Han Yanzhi, and said: "Ziwen, you quickly go to tell his ministers, lead them to leave Lin'an, go to Tanzhou to spread the edict to the prince, let him inherit the throne, and then support the prince, defeat the Jin army, and recover the Great Song Dynasty." ”

The chamberlain took the holy decree and walked over and handed it to Han Yanzhi. Han Yanzhi's whole body trembled, and he didn't accept the holy order, knelt on the ground, and said, "Your Majesty, please think twice." ”

Zhao Yan sighed and said: "Ziwen, back then, the Jin people invaded the south, the two emperors hunted in the north, and the Taishang Emperor took refuge at sea, this kind of great humiliation is unprecedented in all dynasties. Today, I am martyred to let the Jin people know that the Great Song Dynasty also has a king who guards the society. I only hope that my body will die, so that I can warn future generations, pay for my courage, work hard, recover the lost land in the future, and rejuvenate the Great Song Dynasty. Then I will be blinded under the nine springs. ”

Han Yanzhi said with tears in his eyes: "It is the incompetence of the ministers that makes the country miserable, the society is uneasy, and the ministers are in vain." Your Majesty is determined by his will, and the ministers are also willing to follow His Majesty, defend Lin'an, repay the country with death, and live up to His Majesty's kindness. It also let the Jin people know that my Great Song Dynasty not only has the king of the dead society, but also the minister of the dead festival. ”

Zhao Yan shook his head and said, "Ziwen, I don't allow you to die here now, you still have to support Xinjun, defeat the Jin army, and restore the Great Song Dynasty." There is still a long way to go. ”

Han Yanzhi didn't know what to say for a while, and then the chamberlain came in again to tell him, and Yu Yunwen asked to see him outside the hall. Zhao Yan and Han Yanzhi were both stunned, they both knew that Yu Yunwen was bedridden at home, why did they come to see him at this time. Zhao Yan immediately said: "Hurry up and announce Yu Qing to the palace." ”

I saw that with the support of a young man, Yu Yunwen staggered up to the hall. was about to give a salute to Zhao Yan, but was immediately stopped by Zhao Yan and said: "Yu Qing is sick, so there is no need to give a salute." ”

Yu Yunwen said: "The minister heard that Huzhou was lost, and I don't know why His Majesty still wants to stay in Lin'an. ”

Zhao Yan said: "I said that the city of Lin'an is broken, and I will die for the country and will never flee from Lin'an." Yu Qing should leave Lin'an with Ziwen. ”

Yu Yunwen nodded and said, "The old minister thinks that he is a terminally ill person, but he is just surviving, what is the use of leaving Lin'an." Even if His Majesty is determined to die for the country, the minister will follow His Majesty and be loyal to the country. ”

Zhao Yan looked at Yu Yunwen, and after a long while, he said, "Okay, then it will be up to me and the two of us to die." He said straight to Han Yan again: "Ziwen, you better go quickly." ”

Han Yan looked directly at Zhao Yan, and then at Yu Yunwen, thinking that Yu Yunwen could persuade Zhao Yan when he came, but who knew that he was here to accompany Zhao Yan on the death festival. I didn't know what to say for a while.

Yu Yunwen said: "Ziwen, you just leave quickly, and the responsibility of restoring the Great Song Dynasty in the future will be on you." ”

In fact, Yu Yunwen somewhat guessed Zhao Yan's psychology, on the one hand, because Zhao Yan did not pay attention to Yang Yan's opinions, and blamed himself in his heart, on the other hand, since Zhao Yan succeeded to the throne, he has been working hard to recover the lost ground, but for various reasons, it has not achieved much. And now he was beaten to Lin'an by the Jin army, so he also felt haggard and unsustainable. So there was the idea of giving way to the prince and dying for the country.

Therefore, Yu Yunwen did not deeply persuade Zhao Yan, and was willing to go to the national disaster with Zhao Yan, but persuaded Han Yanzhi to leave as soon as possible. Therefore, he said: "Ziwen, the old man still has something to ask for." ”

Han Yan hurriedly said: "If there is anything going on, I won't visit." ”

Yu Yunwen pointed to the young man who helped him to the palace, and said: "This is my youngest son Yu Hangsun, who is only seventeen years old this year, please Ziwen take him away from Lin'an, so that my Yu family will not be extinct, and I will take care of Ziwen in the future." ”

When Yu Hangsun heard this, he fell to the ground and cried, his voice was so bad that he couldn't speak. Yu Yunwen gently stroked the top of his young son's head and sighed: "Idiot, idiot, people will eventually die, be loyal to their father and country, and die as they deserve, why should you be like this?" ”

Han Yanzhi's eyes were unconsciously depressed, and he wept and said, "Don't worry, Yan Zhi will be... Definitely..."

Before the words were finished, I only heard a chaotic footsteps, and saw Liang Kejia, Hong Shi, Zeng Mao, Zhang Shuo, Hu Quan and other ministers walking up to the hall together, Zhao Yan frowned slightly, and said, "What are you waiting for the palace?" ”

Liang Kejia knelt on the ground and said: "Huzhou is lost, the Jin army will arrive in an instant, please ask Your Majesty to leave Lin'an as soon as possible." ”

Zhao Yan smiled faintly and said, "I have issued an order to Ziwen and pass it on to the prince." You are all the pillars of my Great Song Dynasty, and I hope that you will continue to support the new monarch in the future, do your duty, and rejuvenate the Great Song Dynasty. It's not too early, so get out of here. ”

Han Yanzhi led the ministers to kneel on the ground, bowed to Zhao Yan three times, and said in unison: "The ministers will bid farewell to Your Majesty." ”
