Chai Rong's death cast a shadow on the entire Great Zhou, and the people of the whole country wept bitterly, which was sincere, and the people loved Chai Rong from the bottom of their hearts. （）

Zhao Xu and Miao Xun walked on the street and saw that the people on both sides of the road were spontaneously burning incense and worshipping in front of their doors, and Zhao Xu was also deeply shocked.

Chai Rong, if you think that if you know that you can be so loved by the people after you die, you should also feel gratified.

"Childe, it seems that Emperor Sejong is very loved by the people." Miao Xun also saw the scene on both sides of the street.

Last time, Zhao Xu said that he would not let Miao Xun call him his lord outside, so it was easy for people to think that he had some bad intentions, so he should call his son, and Miao Xun also agreed.

"There is a reason why Sejong is so loved, he is a wise man, in fact, I admire him very much." Zhao Xu and Miao Xun said as they walked.

It is right to admire Chai Rong, the monarch who died young, and the emperor who was not much praised in later generations.

During his reign, he adopted a series of reform measures, which were conducive to recuperation and strengthened the strength of the later week.

Culturally, the examination system was implemented to select capable literate people, and the position of literati was raised.

More importantly, although Chai Rong was born in the army, he cherished some classics very much.

Once, he saw that the classics in the state's collection were very scarce, so he ordered that anyone who voluntarily contributed a unique book to the government should be given a heavy reward.

For the books presented, he summoned a large number of Hanlin scholars to proofread them, and then transcribed copies, and treasured the originals, creating a precedent for national collections.

Sejong was cautious and humbly asked for advice, and never killed a person because of his speech. Zhao Xu wondered if the Great Song Song Taizu was affected by this.

During his reign, he encouraged the minister to write and speak freely, so he had the famous "Pingbian Policy" that was passed down to future generations.

Zhao Xu said so much in one breath, but Miao Xun listened very carefully and nodded from time to time. （）

"Is the "Pingbian Policy" that Gongzi said the one written by Lord Wang Pu, and the unification strategy of the Zhou State is based on this?" Miao Xun knew this Wang Pu.

"Yes, it was him, a minister with great ability and foresight, but he passed away early, a great loss for the country!" Zhao Xu admires Wang Pu very much, a minister with a wealth of foresight.

But he also died in the sixth year of Xiande, such a person is one less, and it is really a loss for the country.

Zhao Xu stood on the city wall, looking at the scene of Bianjing, and at this time Chai Rong came to his mind.

During his short reign of five years, he cleaned up the rule of officials, selected talents, and made the country's government clear.

At the same time, he also measured the acres of land and formulated reasonable taxes, which greatly reduced the burden of the people.

Rectify the forbidden army, restrict Buddhism, reward farming, restore water transportation, build water conservancy, revise the criminal law and calendar, also correct the Yale, correct the shortcomings of the imperial examination, search for books, carve ancient books, and greatly promote culture and education......

All of this shows that he is a great Ming monarch, if you don't die young, I will definitely assist you in unifying the world, but, alas......

When Zhao Xu was lamenting Chai Rong's early death from a distance, the atmosphere in the palace was very depressing, because the emperor had just died, and everyone was very sad, but it was more important to canonize a new emperor.

It is said that the country cannot be left without an owner for a day, since Sejong died, a new heir to the throne must be elected, in fact, Chai Rong has already decided before his death.

It stands to reason that after the death of the emperor, it should be after the new emperor ascended the throne that the emperor was announced, and the emperor was given the temple name.

This is all a historical practice, but Hou Zhou is different from the past, and the emperor was announced to have died early. I don't know who would dare to make such a decision.

Many people were pinched in a cold sweat, worried that this would cause panic, but they did not expect that there would be no panic as expected.

In the Chongyuan Palace, the six-year-old child is receiving the worship of the hundred officials, this is the successor of Chai Rong before his death, Chai Zongxun.

Chai Rong also has no way, Chai Zongxun is his fourth son, his first three sons have all died in Guo Wei's coup d'état, Chai Zongxun is his current eldest son, born to him and Empress Fu.

Chai Zongxun ascended the throne and became the third emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Fu, who had just been named empress, was also promoted to become the empress dowager.

This queen mother is only in her twenties, very young, she is the sister of the late Empress Fu, and now she is in charge.

However, what kind of political acumen does a woman in her twenties have, so the political affairs are handed over to the three prime ministers Fan Zhen, Wang Pu and Wei Renpu.

The new emperor ascended the throne and was also promoted, which was used to show the new emperor's imperial grace. Among them, Han Tong, the envoy of the Songzhou Jiedu and the captain of the inspection school, was transferred to the Yunzhou Jiedu envoy, and still served as the deputy commander of the guard.

Changed the Xuzhou festival to make Zhao Kuangyin the envoy of the Songzhou festival, and still inspected the front of the palace, and also inspected the school master. The eldest princess of the Jin Dynasty, Zhang, is Zhang Yongde's wife. For the eldest princess, Zhang Yongde, the commander of the horse and the captain of the school, was the envoy of the Xuzhou Festival, and entered the founding of the country.

Everyone is satisfied, everything is as usual during the national funeral, Chai Rong left a posthumous photo, after his death, he does not have to follow the ancient rites, everything is to unify the world as the first priority.

Although Chai Rong said this, everyone still did not dare to do so, especially several prime ministers, who strongly opposed the use of troops during the national funeral.

Because Han Lingkun, who was stationed in Bazhou, had just defeated the Khitan, that is, the invading enemy of the Liao State, he wanted to ask the imperial court to send troops as soon as possible, but Fan Zhen and others sent envoys to the Liao State to negotiate peace.

At the same time, he brought a large amount of gold and silver treasures to bribe the high-ranking officials of the Liao State, hoping that the Liao State would not raise swords during the national funeral of the Great Zhou.

The generals' requests for orders were rejected one by one, and at the same time, they also reprimanded Zhao Kuangyin and the privy envoy Wei Renpu, saying that they did not respect the emperor and always wanted to go on the expedition, which made the generals very angry.

"What's wrong with Dad, look at your angry face, what did you lose?" Zhao Xu is not qualified to go to the court now, so he doesn't know what happened.

"It's not like those stubborn old masters of Fan Qian, saying that the first emperor's bones are not cold, and it is not appropriate to use troops, but when the first emperor was dying, he clearly left an edict to unify the world as his own responsibility. But what about them? ”

Zhao Kuangyin was really angry, and his face was scary. Zhao Kuangyin took a sip of water and continued:

"They also said that it is too early to unify the world, Your Majesty is young today, and it is not too late for him to discuss the unification of the world when he grows up, and he is only seven years old today, and when he grows up, the situation will not necessarily become like, and our group of generals will also be old."

Zhao Kuangyin said very well, when Chai Zongxun grows up, he doesn't know what the situation will become.

The world is in turmoil, and the people don't know what kind of suffering they are going to suffer, Zhao Kuangyin shook his head helplessly, but he was helpless.

Before Zhao Xu could persuade Zhao Kuangyin, a person came in, it turned out that Liu Hongqing was here, Liu Hongqing was now in charge of collecting information, he handed Zhao Xu a wax pill, and retreated.

After Zhao Xu finished reading it, he didn't say a word, he told Zhao Kuangyin to confess and left, and before Zhao Kuangyin could ask him what he was doing, Zhao Xu disappeared in the backyard. He also shook his head, Lao Tzu can't control his son now.

What's more, it's night now, what is Zhao Xu going to do now, he can't figure it out, he just doesn't want to, there are too many things at this stage, the new emperor ascended the throne and his son didn't get a trace of promotion, not to mention the promotion, and the original official position was not restored.

Even Zhao Kuangyin didn't know what was going on, when the first emperor Chai Rong was in power, he attached great importance to Zhao Xu, but what is going on now? Although he is the founding marquis, it is a false position, a title with empty salaries, what is the use?

It's just that he always feels that his son has become more and more mysterious since the death of the first emperor, and he doesn't know what he's doing all day long, and he often visits his brothers, although he is not the former Duyu Marquis now, but he is visiting the elders as a junior.

No one can say anything, and they don't know what they're talking about. Zhao Xu still went to his forbidden army military academy every day to train the new forbidden army, and he worked very hard, everyone thought that he was going to make achievements to show the new emperor, and the good officials would be reinstated.

Zhao Kuangyin waited for half the night, and he didn't see his son come back, so he was drowsy and unbearable, so he had to rest, but it was this rest that made Zhao Kuangyin have the idea of becoming an emperor for the first time in his life, and this idea originated from a dream he had this night, a strange dream......

In a splendid palace, there are no lights inside, and what illuminates the entire palace is the starlight of bright stars.

There is no one in the huge palace, only a dragon chair is placed on it, and there is only one person in the main hall, this person is called Zhao Kuangyin, and he doesn't know why he can come here and why he is here.

When Zhao Kuangyin came to this strange place, he didn't have any fear, so he looked around alone, and at this time a voice sounded:

"Brother Huang, you're here."

Immediately afterwards, a person appeared on the empty dragon chair, a person that Zhao Kuangyin was very familiar with, that is, Chai Rong and Zhou Shizong, who died not long ago. Zhao Kuangyin didn't know why Chai Rong appeared here, but he still saluted obediently:

"Minister Zhao Kuangyin visited His Majesty, the minister was terrified, the minister really didn't deserve the title of the emperor's brother, and asked His Majesty to take it back." the emperor's younger brother; A common term for the emperor's younger generations in the imperial family. Of course, a person with a prince can be called so by the emperor.

The title of the emperor's younger brother is too big, and Zhao Kuangyin is not Chai Rong's own brother, nor is he Chai Rong's relative, and he doesn't have a prince in his body, so he really doesn't deserve such a title.

Unexpectedly, Chai Rong laughed out loud at this time, which made that Chai Rong feel even more inexplicable, and before he could come to his senses, Chai Rong opened his mouth to speak.
