As soon as Zhao Guan's family came out, the imperial guards outside the Wende Palace also hurriedly followed, surrounding the emperor in the middle.
Zhao Ji and Zhao Kai were frightened and puzzled.
Zhao Ji said, "What is this rebellious son going to do?"
With that said, he followed out.
Zhao Ji naturally had his own plan in mind.
After the Jin army attacked the city last time, they took the initiative to negotiate a peace, and most of the ministers in the court were in favor of the peace.
But because Xu Bingzhe was killed before, he didn't dare to speak out blatantly.
And at the time of that chaos, some ministers secretly kept Zhao Ning in private and took the initiative to attack.
The key here is density.
The denseness means that this person did not publicly say that he would take the initiative to attack, and other ministers did not know that he was the main combat faction.
But he is actually a peacemaker in front of other ministers.
For example, Mo Chou.
This is to cater to the emperor while flattering other officials, taking care of both sides and speculating on both sides.
But its essence is peace and surrender.
Just to make a statement, this is by no means a high EQ, it is shameless.
Basically, the ministers who took the initiative to attack all have this mentality.
In fact, they did not expect that the Jin army would attack the city aggressively today.
After the Jin army attacked the city aggressively, they panicked.
When they knew that the scale of the Jin army's siege was beyond their imagination, they were no longer panicked, but completely bewildered.
There was nothing else they could do.
The only way is: quickly surrender!Ceded land!indemnity!
In their eyes, the people in Tokyo City are no longer human beings, they are cash machines, cash machines for compensation!
Zhao Ning walked quickly with a sword in one hand.
The court servants, maids, and female officials along the way all retreated to the side.
Even Jing Chao could feel the emperor's anger at this moment.
Zhao Ji and Zhao Kai followed behind.
They want to see what Zhao Ning can do at this time!
Now so many officials have come to the gate of the palace to force the palace to negotiate a peace, let's see how he ends up!
When Zhao Ning arrived at the gate of the palace, he saw that all the civil and military officials had indeed gathered at the gate of the palace.
The wind and snow fell on Zhao Ning, but he ignored it.
There was noise in the distance.
When the officials saw that the emperor had come out, they came to God immediately.
"Officials! The Jin army is attacking the city! The Jin army is attacking the city aggressively!"
It was Wang Shiyong, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, who spoke.
Wang Shiyong seemed at a loss, even his voice trembled slightly.
Zhao Ning was still holding the sword in his hand, he glanced at it, and finally turned his eyes back to Wang Shiyong, and said coldly: "I know."
"Officials! Hurry up and negotiate a peace! For the sake of our ancestors, the country and the country, there is still time to negotiate a peace!"
Wang Shiyong said without hesitation, and the officials behind him also wanted to follow the advice.
Wang Shiyong is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials has great power, and is in charge of the performance assessment of different types of officials.
It is equivalent to one of the vice presidents of personnel in the Song Dynasty.
Why is it one of them?
Because my Great Song Dynasty was famous for its many officials, who hindered each other. There were two Ministers of the Ministry of Officials, and the other was Mo Chou, who were in charge of different objects.
This is something.
Zhao Ning stood there, the wind and snow swept across his body quickly, and the cold wind cut his face like a knife, but he didn't notice it.
He looked at this scene coldly, looked at these ministers, and suddenly remembered the words of the village man:
Above the temple, the rotten wood is the official, and between the palace and the majesty, the beasts eat the salary;
The wolf-hearted and dog-like people are in power, and the servile people are in power one after another.
As a result, the people in Shejiqiu Market are in a state of misery!
Isn't that the case in the current Song Dynasty!
The Great Song Dynasty gathered the power of the whole country to support a special class, which was called Shiren.
As a result, a group of greedy, ungrateful, and shameless people were raised!
You wait to ask if the sword in my hand is sharp!
Zhao Ning looked at Wang Shiyong coldly and said, "Mo Chou!"
Mo Chou went out: "The minister is here!"
"I remember, did I say that if anyone talks about peace again, his head will be cut off?"
Mo Chou hesitated for a moment, not daring to speak.
Zhao Ning's tone became more serious, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he nailed Mo Chou: "Have I ever said such a thing!"
Mo Chou shuddered and didn't speak, he knew it was best not to talk nonsense at this time.
Mo Choo is a very cunning person.
But a general on the side came out, this man was Fan Qiong, the inspector of the four walls of Tokyo City.
During the Jingkang disaster, it was this person who held the sword and forced the female family members of the Zhao family to leave the city to sacrifice to the Jin army.
The Liu Miao mutiny paid by Jianyan was also caused by this man's indulgence of his generals entering the city to rob.
Fan Qiong said: "The officials have said it, after they killed Xu Bingzhe that day. But from time to time, now the Jin army is attacking the city aggressively, and the city is in danger of being destroyed at any time. If the peace is not negotiated now, the country is in danger of subjugation. The ministers are also for the official family's society!"
Every piece of paper and military has come out.
Zhao Ning said, "Fan Qing, why are you here?"
"minister……"
"As the inspector of the Four Walls, shouldn't you be defending the city now?"
"The minister is thinking about the safety of the official family."
"Okay, since you know what I said, I won't complain if I kill you today!"
As soon as the emperor said this, everyone's expressions changed instantly.
Wang Shiyong said loudly: "Officials, you can no longer anger the ministers at will, otherwise the country will perish, and the country will perish!"
Zhao Ning saw that the ministers who followed him also responded, and he immediately shouted: "Come here! Drag Wang Shiyong aside and chop him up! And Fan Qiong!"
The Imperial Guard was taken aback.
Zhao Ning suddenly pulled out the Son of Heaven Sword. In the cold weather, veins burst out on his forehead, and he roared like an angry dragon: "What are you doing standing still! Cut it off!"
Jing Chao's speed was extremely fast, he pulled out the knife in an instant, and the knife was clamped on Fan Qiong's neck the next moment.
Fan Qiong didn't dare to move any more.
The two guards next to him came up and pushed back Fan Qiong's arm, but Fan Qiong couldn't resist.
He shouted loudly: "Officials! You can't do this! This will destroy the country!"
Wang Shiyong was also taken into custody by the imperial guards.
The other ministers never expected that the emperor would dare to chop people at the gate of the palace, and their expressions changed abruptly.
Zhao Ji didn't expect that either, but he was overjoyed. If Zhao Ning killed someone here today, the other officials would no longer be silent and would rise up to resist.
Not surprisingly, I can ascend the throne today.
Wang Shiyong shouted: "Officials! If you kill the minister again today, you will lose the hearts of the people!"
"Shut up! You servile servant, you are the minister of officials, you read the books of sages, but you don't think about how to use others. Before the crisis, you are greedy for life and forget righteousness, and you dare to talk in front of me!"
"I thought I wouldn't dare to kill you!"
Chapter 49: Turning Faces Faster Than Turning Books
Fan Qiong shouted: "Tyrant, you are about to lose..."
Jing Chao had sharp eyes and quick hands, he swung the knife in his hand.
The imperial guards in the Song Dynasty all had strict selection criteria. No one knew how strong a person like Jing Chao, who was known as the "enemy of ten thousand people", had the strength of his hands.
I'm afraid it's only a little worse than Yue Fei's level.
When he came down with the knife, Fan Qiong's head was cut off in an instant.
During the rush of blood, human heads were spinning in the air.
Finally, it fell into the snow and rolled near the officials, who were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
The snow has been dyed a large area red.
Fan Qiong opened her mouth slightly, her eyes were still wide open, as if she was looking at Mo Chou.
Mo Chou was so frightened that his legs went limp and his whole body trembled.
The scene felt unreal.
Fan Qiong was walking on the road with him just now, and chatted for a while.
Now the heads are down.
The other officials didn't dare to look this way either.
"Tyrant, you will suffer retribution..."
Wang Shiyong didn't say a word, and with a click, the head rolled and fell into the snow, blood gushed out from the neck, staining a large area red, and the headless corpse collapsed to the ground.
The Minister of the Ministry of Officials died in this way.
The gate of the palace fell into dead silence, only the sound of wind and snow whistled in people's ears.
Zhao Kai gently pulled Zhao Ji's sleeve, as if to signal Zhao Ji.
Both father and son knew that the time had come.
Zhao Ning killed too much, exceeded the bottom line of these people's tolerance, and has begun to be cast aside by these people.
Killing ministers in front of many ministers, is this a human thing?
I, Zhao Ji... Oh no, I, Zhao Ji, am here to save you from the fire and water!
Now is the best time to stand up, appeal to all officials, abolish the officials in front of you, and take the position yourself.
These people must all agree.
After he was in power, he negotiated peace with the Jinren, handed over this rebellious son to take the blame, and told the Jinren that he was the one who would take the lead in the battle, and he was the one to turn to for everything.
How much should be paid? Anyway, Tokyo City can be scrapped again.
Everything is fine!
Zhao Ji's thinking is not naive. In fact, according to normal logic, Zhao Ning has already broken through to the limit.
This act of killing ministers at the gate of the palace is a tyrant!
That's right, according to normal human values, this is indeed a tyrant.
But it should be noted that a tyrant refers to a bad-tempered monarch, not a faint-hearted monarch.
Was Qin Shihuang a tyrant?
Qin Shihuang was a tyrant.
