Chapter 55: Mourning After 'Death'
Theoretically, an unpowered delta wing can fly up to 1,000 to 2,000 meters in the right weather and currents, with a maximum flight distance of 500 kilometers. But Zhao Ta didn't dare to take any more risks, one was that in the afternoon, the hot air flow would gradually weaken, and the other was afraid that the delta wing he had built would cause some temper, and he would become an airborne soldier, so after he flew out of Kaifeng City, he flew a distance to the southeast and prepared to land at the predetermined location, where someone had been arranged to pick him up.
The delta wing had already flown out of Kaifeng City thirty or forty miles away, Zhao Ta avoided villages and densely populated places, looked down at the land outside the city from the air, identified the direction through the terrain and landforms, and flew along the Bianhe River to find the joint location. Suddenly, there was a flash of light on the ground, Zhao Ta lowered the altitude and flew towards the flash, as the altitude decreased, he saw clearly that the source of the light was on a beach where no birds were inhabited.
"Zhen'er, we're going to land, hold me tight!" Zhao Ta twisted her face and said to Zhu Shuzhen, at this time her excitement had passed, and she was a little tired, Zhu Shuzhen nodded and hugged the prince hard.
At this time, the people on the ground also spotted the people in the air, waved the red flag to indicate the direction, and guided the prince to land. Taking off and landing are the most dangerous moments in the flight, Zhao Ta had to cheer up the spirit, he manipulated the delta wing to adjust the direction to meet the wind, gradually falling, and rushed to the earth.
"Lord Wang, you really have to fly over!" Zhao Ta had just landed, and he ran a few steps with him, and before he could stabilize his figure, Erwa led several people from the special combat team to rush out and hug the prince, shouting excitedly.
"Of course, are you ready?" Zhao Ta took off the suspender, let go of the princess and smiled.
"Lord Lord. Everything is ready and the boat is not far away! Erwa said.
"Good. Burn it and we got on board. Don't let anyone find out! Zhao Ta nodded, pointed to the delta wing, and said.
"Yes!" Erwa instructed a few team members to escort the prince first, he dragged the delta wing to a hidden place and ignited it, looking at the delta wing that was quickly burned into a pile of ashes, he still didn't believe that the prince actually flew here from the capital with this simple thing.
Zhao Ta rested for a while on a small boat in the middle of the river, ate something more, and only rowed out of the reeds after dark, and got on a passenger boat of 2,000 Hu moored in the Bianhe River, Xue Hai and other people from the Intelligence Department had been waiting for a long time. They were able to settle down for the time being. Zhu Shuzhen has never experienced this kind of fuss and early rest in her life, and Zhao Ta is still anxiously waiting for the news of the people left behind in Beijing...
The Bianhe River is an important water passage to communicate the north and the south, in addition to the cao boats that transport grain from the south of the Yangtze River to Beijing, there are also passenger boats that take advantage of the good season to play, so their boats do not attract people's attention, and Zhao Ta and other familiar faces only stay in the cabin during the day and do not show up, only swimming back and forth on the river.
Three days later, the exact news came from Beijing that the prince was 'soaring' on the tower of Tianqing Temple. It caused an uproar in Beijing. Zhao Huan imprisoned all the people in King Qin's mansion and interrogated them strictly, but he didn't find out why, and the things in the mansion basically didn't move, and the prince's belongings were not taken away. In the end, he could only conclude the case with King Qin's successful cultivation, soaring in the daytime, and going to the sky to be an immortal.
The emperor decreed that all the people in the palace of the king of Qin would be dismissed. Change the palace of the king of Qin to the concept of eternal life, and name the statue of the king of Qin and his wife in the main hall. Daojun Zhao Ji personally inscribed the name of the view. Zhao Ta was named the emperor of Haotian loyalty, filial piety and bravery, and Wang Laozhi, who was cultivating in the palace of the king of Qin, was the master. Sacrifice at four o'clock, enjoy the incense of the world forever, and protect the people of the Great Song Dynasty. And the place where Zhao Ta ascended Tianqing Temple is famous, presiding over the crown robe left after the ascension of King Qin is enshrined in the tower, becoming a Buddhist resort, pilgrims from all over the world gather, come here to offer incense and pray for blessings, there is a trend of replacing Xiangguo Temple to become the first temple in Kyoto!
Hearing that everyone was safe, Zhao Ta was relieved, he wanted to take refuge in Xiangyi for a few days, but Xiangyi was too close to the capital, and the matter was in a uproar, the world knew it, he decided to go to the northwest, and at the same time ordered Jianxi to properly settle the dismissed personnel in the palace, and when the limelight passed, Zhao Zhong led the guards brigade to sneak back to the northwest in batches. Escorted by Xue Hai's task force and special combat team, he took the boat first, and after arriving in the northwest, he rendezvous...
………
The Qianlong Festival ended in a lively situation, but Zhao Huan was still a little awkward in his heart, as if he had eaten fly feces, he couldn't say that he couldn't spit it out, and his brother 'died' and died vigorously, making a big noise, and now among the Jingshi, he only knows the king of Qin and does not know him as the emperor.
"Have you searched all the palaces of King Qin?" Zhao Huan looked at the master Geng Nanzhong on the side and asked.
"Your Majesty, you've searched carefully!" Geng Nanzhong replied that he was now presiding over the renovation of the Qin Palace, and at the same time was in charge of raiding the house.
"Did you find something?" Zhao Ta raised his eyelids and asked.
"Your Majesty, I checked and counted 150,000 yuan in the palace of King Qin, there are only less than 100 pieces of jewelry, and the furniture is all old things sent by the palace back then, and there are just some weapons, but I found a lot of books and notes!" Geng Nanzhong said.
"Didn't you say that King Qin was rich enough to rival the country, and his family had millions of yuan?" Zhao Huan looked at Geng Nanzhong and asked.
"Your Majesty, the ministers used to hear that the servants and miscellaneous servants in the palace of the king of Qin ate meat every day, and the monthly salary was also the highest in the palaces, and there was a reward for every festival, and the king of Qin was also very generous, and he also had the Zhuangzi of Xiangyi who could produce gold... It's the minister's negligence! Geng Nanzhong also wanted to say, but seeing the emperor's eyes that could breathe fire, he quickly pleaded guilty, and now the emperor's position is becoming more and more consolidated, and he is also dissatisfied with what he did, so he has to be careful.
"Then where did all his money and Zhuangzi's property go?" Zhao Huan asked again.
According to the chief and steward of the palace, the king of Qin used all his money to compensate the dead and disabled soldiers, relieve the poor, and set up a righteous school. King Qin wantonly bribed the hearts of the people and served him, which shows that he has long had bad intentions! Geng Nanzhong said.
"Oh, so do you have any evidence of rebellion?" Zhao Huan thought for a moment and asked again.
"Your Majesty, there are more than 30 weapons and armor in the house, as well as a large number of books and notes, and the minister is ordering people to find evidence of rebellion!" Geng Nanzhong replied.
"What kind of books are there, and what is wrong with them?"
"Your Majesty, all I have checked now are miscellaneous books such as military books, gazetteers, and agricultural books, and I haven't found anything else, but the minister is carefully searching, and he will definitely be able to find evidence of his rebellion!" Geng Nanzhong said with a smile.
"No need to check again, it's all bad for you villains!" Zhao Huan suddenly said coldly.
"Your Majesty, the minister is loyal!" Geng Nanzhong saw that the emperor's face suddenly changed, and he said at a loss.
"King Qin is good at martial arts, everyone knows it, and he is fighting in all directions, there are a few weapons and armor at home, what is new, as long as it is a rich family in the city, who does not have a few weapons, even if you only need to copy it in Geng's mansion, I am afraid that there are more than in Qin's mansion!" Zhao Huan said.
"Your Majesty, minister..."Geng Nanzhong knelt down for the emperor, he was flustered in his heart, no matter what the emperor said, he turned his face, so that he couldn't feel the pulse of the roundworm in his stomach.
"You said that the Qin Wang's family wealth was millions of yuan in order to hoard silver money as a rebellion, and he scattered all his family wealth to support the widows and orphans, and you said that he bought people's hearts. You said that there must be ironclad evidence of treason and collaboration with the enemy in the palace, but you turned the palace of Qin upside down, but you used those miscellaneous books to blame. And since you entered the prince's mansion, I have asked me to be wary of the king of Qin everywhere, and even did not hesitate to drive him to the barren land in the northwest. He drove the Jin army far away to Hebei, but you said that he colluded with the Jurchens to rebel... Which of these things can be confirmed, you are waiting for yourself to provoke my brotherly affection! Zhao Huan slapped the table with a 'pop' sound and questioned Geng Nanzhong.
"Your Majesty, the King of Qin is cunning, don't be deceived by his appearance, the minister is loyal to His Majesty!" As soon as Geng Nanzhong heard it, the emperor wanted to turn over the old accounts, and kowtowed again and again despite his old age and decrepitude.
"You are still slandering the King of Qin, if it weren't for your random suspicions, such as transferring the King of Qin to King Qin in Beijing early, how could the Jurchens come to the city, and how could they give a large amount of money to the Jurchens, misleading the country and misunderstanding!" Zhao Huan roared with a pale face, "Poor my royal brother is still suffering from humiliation and loyalty to the country under the blow of your suspicion, but you still have to plan to frame him, and the King of Qin must have known your sinister intentions, and he turned into an immortal in disappointment, so that I lost the great talent of the auxiliary country!" The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he beat his chest and cried bitterly.
"It's the minister's guilt, take care of your majesty!" Seeing that the emperor was angry like this, Geng Nanzhong hurriedly pleaded guilty again, but he also understood that if he didn't suspect King Qin about these things, he wouldn't dare on his own! The emperor saw that King Qin had become an immortal, and he was scared in his heart, and he wanted to push all the past wrongs on others, get rid of responsibility, and unfortunately became a scapegoat...
The next day, Qin Tianjian reported that Ziweixing was dim, and Wuqu Xing was hidden behind the moon. Heaven and earth correspondingly, Zhao Huan was shocked, dismissed Zhang Bangchang Dazai, and degraded him to leave Beijing and go out of Henan Mansion; Strike Tang Ke Shaozai and let him take charge of Lingxiao Palace; Zhu Yannian was crowned as the Taifu again, and he ate ten thousand households. At the same time, the holy car came to the Immortal View of Incense, fasted for seven days, and did the water and land dojo for seven seven and forty-nine days!
At this moment, Zhao Ta's light boat had crossed the Wanzhong Mountain, and went up from the waterway to Xi'an to abandon the boat and go ashore, all the way to the north, but they did not go to the east of the river, nor did they go to the river, but went to the territory of Texas. Later, Zhao Zhong led the Guards Brigade to arrive, and Jianxi and others also arrived in Texas with the army. Zhao Ta then secretly summoned Zhao Yong and Zhao Xin to discuss the current situation and arrange the next move! (To be continued......)
