Shi Miyuan was speechless by them, and knew that Chen Junqing had always been upright and an old minister of the Four Dynasties, so he never spoke tabooly, and he wanted to have a seizure, but he still endured it, and just wanted to quibble a few more words, at this time, Zhao Hongyi behind him couldn't help it, and immediately stepped forward, and said sharply: "Zhao Chen is just a pseudo-monarch, usurped the throne of my father and the emperor back then, and called the emperor Yueji, and now I am raising the army, just to set things right and take the middle position, why not?" ”

Chen Junqing even dared to be Zhao Chen's palace, which would put him in his eyes, "snorted", and said sharply: "When Emperor Guangzong collapsed, when today's son is still under the edict of Emperor Taishang, supported by our civil and military officials, he was ordered to be a great treasure, ascend the throne and succeed to the throne, and the name is justified, how can he usurp the name." It was His Royal Highness's father, King Deng, who proclaimed himself emperor, and then competed with the Son of Heaven for the throne, and was defeated and died. This matter is known to everyone in the Song Dynasty, and it is impossible to imagine that His Royal Highness will not hesitate to make something out of nothing in order to compete for the throne, and openly raise troops to rebel. ”

Zhao Hong was furious and said: "You are talking nonsense, I should be the emperor, this is the principle of heaven." ”

Zhou Kui sneered: "The Son of Heaven and His Royal Highness talk about the public as the monarch and the minister, and the private as the uncle and nephew, His Royal Highness is against the monarch with the minister, and the nephew is against the uncle, let me ask Your Highness, is this the case with the principles of heaven?" In the past, there was a rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms in the Han Dynasty, but it was also pacified by Zhou Yafu. ”

Ye Hao also said: "Now that Jin is in turmoil, the Great Song Dynasty is using troops in Jianghuai, aiming to restore the lost land, and His Royal Highness is selfish, and does not hesitate to openly rebel, so that the Great Song Dynasty Northern Expedition opportunity is missed, and the shame of the ancestors is disregarded, and His Royal Highness will have the face to see Taizu Taizong underground in the future." ”

Poor Zhao Hong is just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old child, compared to the battle of tongues, where they can talk about their cadres, they are speechless, and their faces are red. Originally, he was ridiculed by Zhao Chen when he attacked the imperial city last night, and he was full of breath in his stomach, but now he was ridiculed by these old men, and his face was still hanging, he had no way to Zhao Chen, but he knew that life and death were in his own hands, so he said angrily: "Come on, arrest these old things for me, and execute them immediately." ”

Chen Junqing laughed and said, "The old man is already in his prime, even if he dies, why refuse." As he spoke, he put his hands behind his back, waiting to be caught. Zhou Kui and Ye Hao also made the posture of leading the neck to be poked.

Shi Mi was far-sighted, but he was very anxious, in fact, he also knew that it was not difficult to kill them, it was enough to call a small soldier to do it, but these people were not ordinary officials, Ye Hao and Zhou Kui were both ruling ministers, although Chen Junqing was only the imperial envoy, but he was also prestigious, and his protégés and officials were all over the government and the opposition. If Zhao Chen is killed now, there will be no big problem, but now Zhao Chen is still firmly guarding the imperial city. But after killing them, not only their protégés and most of the former officials would probably immediately go to Zhao Chen's side. Even when these officials present see it, I am afraid that they will have a heart of sorrow for the death of a rabbit and a fox.

Therefore, Shi Miyuan hurriedly said: "Your Highness is angry, now that the major matter has not yet been decided, it is not appropriate to kill the minister." Hurriedly gave Zong Tianxuan a look again.

Although Zong Tianxuan was not as complicated as Shi Miyuan thought, he also felt that it was not good to kill Chen Junqing and others now, so he also said: "Your Highness, Master Shi is right, it is not appropriate to kill ministers now." It's better to enter the palace early and ascend the throne immediately. ”

At this time, among the ministers, there were also many people who sweated for the three of them, Zhang Yan, Fan Chengda and others hurriedly came out, and even pulled and persuaded the three of them into the crowd. Zhao Hong saw that Shi Miyuan and Zong Tianxuan did not advocate killing, and thought that he would sit on the throne early, so he avoided suppressing the fire and led everyone into the political hall.

After they entered, Shi Miyuan said to the officials: "You all saw it just now!" This time we persuaded His Highness, but next time we can't say for sure. Now His Royal Highness is about to prepare to ascend the throne, and if you can't enter the court, you can see for yourself. As he spoke, he hurriedly followed.

Officials, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to do, at this time, Yang Cishan and the others had no choice, so they had to follow in, and with someone taking the lead, there was no one to follow. After all, not everyone has the courage of Chen Junqing and the three of them to put life and death out of the way, and although Chen Junqing and the others did not go in, they finally did not stop others, so people followed in one after another, more and more, and in the end, there were less than thirty ministers left. Fortunately, Shi Miyuan didn't come to force them, but just ordered people to take care of them and not to leave.

Seeing that seventy or eighty ministers still came in the end, the political hall that was not too big was crowded, although it was not in the official Golden Palace, but in the end it was to welcome the worship of all the officials, listening to them shout long live to themselves, Zhao Hong was also a lot more comfortable, only felt that the wish of many years was finally realized.

After Zhao Hong's enthronement ceremony was over, the officials still could not be let go, and all of them were placed under house arrest in the political hall. Zong Tianxuan, Shi Miyuan and the others immediately began to arrange for the continued attack on the palace.

At this time, reinforcements from outside the city also arrived, and the strength of the rebels was basically restored to the number before the coup. However, at this time, the defense of the imperial city has also been strengthened a lot, and it may not be easy to attack the imperial city. And now that all the power in his hands has been used, if he suffers another loss like that, he will not be able to make up for it.

If you continue to trap the imperial city like this, it is not a way, and Shi Miyuan also knows that there is a certain amount of food stored in the imperial city, and Zhao Chen may not be trapped in the short term. And their own side also can't afford to drag, secondly, Li Xianzhong is stationed outside the city, seems to have heard some rumors, today I sent people to inquire twice, although they were blocked back, did not let them into the city, but this is not a way, if Li Xianzhong immediately raised troops to attack Jiankang, now the rebels these five or six thousand people are not even satisfied with Jiankang's city wall.

And more importantly, in terms of days, Yang Yan is about to arrive in Jiankang, but Yang Yan's family has not been caught, how to stop Yang Yan at that time? What if Yang Yan and Li Xianzhong run into each other? And why Li Quan's reinforcements haven't arrived, if Li Quan's reinforcements come, then things will be much easier.

After a discussion, everyone decided not to attack the imperial city rashly for the time being, and first recruited as many people as possible in the city to replenish the troops as much as possible. Then among the gates of Jiankang, only the three gates of Zhengyang, Dinghuai and Shicheng were left, and the other gates were blocked with bricks and stones to prevent people from entering and leaving. and sent people out of the city to inquire about Yang Yan's progress, and as soon as Yang Yan arrived, he came into the city and set up an ambush to kill him. Then send someone to urge Li Quan, let him lead the army as soon as possible and rush to Jiankang.

After discussing and deciding, Shi Miyuan immediately began to make arrangements, but he didn't realize that it was afternoon, and the day was almost over again. At this time, someone came to report that Li Quan's reinforcements were on the way, totaling more than 18,000 people, and they could arrive in Jiankang early tomorrow morning.

Shi Miyuan was also very happy, immediately met with the visitor, asked about some details, and then sent the person back to inform Li Quan that he would arrive in Jiankang early tomorrow morning and enter the city through Zhengyangmen. Finally heard a good news, and in the evening, Shi Miyuan, who had been tired all day, could finally get a good night's sleep.

This sleep lasted until the fifth watch of the next day, and before the sky was bright, someone came to call Shi Miyuan, telling him that Li Quan's army had arrived at Chaoyang Gate, and waited for him to order the door to enter the city.

Shi Miyuan thought about it for a while, and immediately ordered someone to tell Li Quan, first wait outside the city to be dispatched, and after Shi Miyuan got up and washed, his mind cleared up a little, and then he thought that Li Quan had brought 18,000 men and horses, and all of them were regular troops, and now he basically controlled Jiankang City, Zong Tianxuan and others also listened to their own dispatch, once Li Quan's men and horses were put into Jiankang, with this force, Li Quan became the most powerful party, and then the situation may not be controlled by himself. I can't figure out that all my hard work is in vain.

Therefore, the more Shi Miyuan thought about it, the more reasonable it became, and he regretted that his decision yesterday was too inconsiderate. So he hurriedly wrote a letter to tell Li Quan to station him outside the city in case Li Xianzhong's palace commander was in charge, and then sent 3,000 men and horses into the city to help him attack the imperial city.

But when Li Quan saw Shi Miyuan's letter, he couldn't help but have doubts. If you want to guard against the people and horses of the front division of the palace, it is naturally better to live in the city and defend it after entering the city, then there is a reason to stay outside the city, isn't this to let yourself and Li Xianzhong go hard? Moreover, Li Quan also inquired clearly in advance, although most of the men and horses of the front division of the palace were transferred to the Jianghuai front, they still left three armies, a total of 24,000 men and horses, and their strength was still above him. It is impossible for Shi Miyuan not to know that he has to transfer 3,000 men and horses from himself into the city, wouldn't that further weaken his own troops?

Li Quan is also a person who has been in the officialdom for many years, and he will not fail to understand the indispensable truth of guarding against others, he and Shi Miyuan are just because of the combination of interests, and they can't help but guard against it, no matter how you look at it now, you can feel that Shi Miyuan is borrowing a knife to kill people. Therefore, Li Quan immediately wrote to Shi Miyuan, saying that his men and horses were tired from a long journey, and they did not bring tents, so it was inconvenient to be stationed outside the city, and he still hoped to bring the whole army into the city to rest.

And Shi Miyuan couldn't help but turn over when he received Li Quan's confidence, why did Li Quanfei bring the whole army into the city? What is the rationale for this? It seems that Li Quan must have another purpose in his heart, but he can't be unguarded, the more he wants to enter the city, the more he can't let him into the city. So Shi Miyuan immediately wrote back to Li Quan, saying that the city was small and could not accommodate so many people, so it was better for the people to be stationed outside the city, and it was easy to do it if there was a lack of tents, and he could be transferred from the city.

After Li Quan received the letter, he naturally knew that Shi Miyuan was prevaricating, but he didn't want to let himself into the city, but he didn't do it, so after accepting the tent, he immediately led the army to leave the city for ten miles and found a place to go down.
