After breakfast, Chao Yong went to Chui Gong Hall.
When they arrived at Chui Gong Hall, Wu Song and Shi Xiu were already waiting there.
Shi Xiu acted as if nothing happened last night, but Wu Song felt a little unnatural when he saw Chao Yong.
After last night, Walker Wu Song disappeared again, and he became the tiger-killing Wu Song again.
The generals of Daliang also came, and they were all in high spirits. The fatigue of the days of marching was washed away by the joy of occupying this majestic city.
Ruan Xiaoqi saw Chao Yong and said: "Prince, I want to sit on the Dragon Throne, but they all say that sitting on the Dragon Throne is rebellion and may lose your head. Do you think I can sit on the Dragon Throne?"
It turns out that he is not the only one who has changed. After Tokyo was captured, everyone has changed. In the past, everyone did not have to worry about losing their heads because of some inappropriate things, because everyone was brothers, especially Chao Gai, who was extremely righteous.
Chao Yong saw that Ruan Xiaoqi was still so playful and straightforward, but he found it rare. He smiled and said: "My father has not ascended the throne yet, so you can sit down if you want."
"I told you that the prince would not be so stingy."
Ruan Xiaoqi said something to everyone, then ran up proudly, sat down on the dragon chair, looked at the people standing under the stage, and suddenly shouted: "Do you think I look like an emperor?"
Everyone in the hall suddenly changed their faces with fear.
Lin Chong shouted: "Xiao Qi, don't talk nonsense, come down quickly."
Ruan Xiaoqi saw that the very prestigious Lin Chong was angry, so he stood up angrily and said with a smile: "This dragon chair is almost the same as an ordinary chair. It's just that it's a little lower when you sit on it and look at everyone."
Li Kui couldn't help but said, "I'll sit down too."
As he said that, he walked up.
Lin Chong said hurriedly: "It's just a chair, something nice to sit on."
Li Kui giggled and said: "How can it be the same? That is the emperor's chair. I am not destined to be the emperor anymore, but I am sitting on the dragon chair today. I can tell my mother when I go back that I, Tieniu, am the most promising person in Yishui County." people."
Lin Chongqi said: "As a general, aren't you the most promising person?"
Li Kui scratched his head and said: "Perhaps someone has done it before, General. No one has ever sat on the Dragon Throne."
With that said, he ran up and sat down on the dragon chair, pretending to look majestic.
Chao Yong couldn¡¯t help laughing when he saw the fierce Li Kui sitting on the dragon chair.
Chao Yong smiled, and the depressing atmosphere in the hall disappeared. Everyone couldn't help laughing when they looked at Li Kui's appearance.
Everyone seems to have returned to the time when there was no distinction between superiority and inferiority in Liangshan.
Chao Yong smiled and said: "Since they are all seated, you can all sit down one by one. If you can't be the emperor, it's okay to sit on the dragon throne."
Lin Chong said with a smile: "Being an emperor is too tiring. You have to worry about war and political affairs. It's better to be a general. Just fight good battles. If you are an emperor, you have to think about where the pay for the soldiers and horses will come from. The general only needs to lead troops to fight."
Chao Yong heard what Lin Chong said and felt that the emperor seemed worse than a general. However, when the emperor was angry, he was bleeding and drifting. After becoming an emperor, all the land in the world is the king's land, and the shores of the land are all the king's ministers. A general is not as happy as an emperor, but this happiness requires more effort.
Until no one came to sit on the dragon chair, Chao Yong walked up and sat on the dragon chair.
Looking at the people below who suddenly became shorter, Chao Yong also felt that they were far away. He didn't like this feeling of being superior.
Chao Yong stood up and walked downstairs, smiling and saying: "Sitting on the dragon chair, it feels like I have become alone all of a sudden. It feels so bad. Whoever wants to be the emperor will do it in the future, and I will not do it."
Hearing this, Lin Chong was shocked and said: "The Prince of Liang only has a son, the prince. If you don't want to be the emperor, who will be?"
Li Kui also shouted: "Is it possible that Brother Chao Gai has a son again? This Tokyo was conquered by Brother Yong. If Brother Chao Gai no longer wants to be emperor, only Brother Yong can do it. When others want to do it, I will "Kill."
Hearing this, Chao Yong glared at Li Kui and said, "Mo nonsense, my father has no other sons, and whoever he appoints to be emperor will be whoever he chooses to be the emperor in the future. Anyone who dares to make trouble will have trouble with me."
Liu Tang smiled and said: "My brother is still the same brother as before. He will not have another son."
Li Kui said in confusion: "Brother Chao Gai only has one son, Brother Yong. If he is not the emperor, then who will be? You can't let outsiders be the emperor, right?"
Chao Yong smiled and said: "I am not the emperor, but I can give birth to a son. When the time comes, I will let my father pass the throne directly to my son."
Li Kui clapped his hands and said: "That's right, brother Yong, if you don't want to be the emperor, I can go to you if I want to have a drink with you. Once you become the emperor, you will live in this palace. I heard that the emperor doesn't invite you, so we can't." Advance??, this is not good. "
Lin Chong and others only thought that Chao Yong said it casually and did not take it seriously, so they did not persuade Chao Yong.
Chao Yong stood in front of everyone and said with a smile: "Okay, let's discuss things like this. We are still Liangshan brothers, and everyone can speak freely."
Although Chao Yong said this, Lin Chong and other people who had been officials in the Song Dynasty still couldn't be free, because they knew that civil servants would soon discuss matters with them. At that time, as long as they were rude to Chao Yong, those civil servants would They will be impeached. Although Chao Gai may not necessarily deal with them because of this, there will always be some trouble and even affect everyone's feelings. It is better to respect Chao Yong from the beginning.
Lin Chong said: "After we entered the city yesterday, we took control of the Song Dynasty's imperial army. Although we surrendered their weapons, hundreds of thousands of people staying in the military camp are always a hidden danger. We must reorganize them as soon as possible."
Chao Yong nodded and said: "You were the instructor of the Forbidden Army before and you know a lot about the Forbidden Army. Do you have any good suggestions?"
Lin Chong said: "There are 200,000 forbidden troops in the city. Yesterday, the whole city was under martial law, but only a hundred thousand people gathered. This shows the corruption of the military discipline of the forbidden troops. Even among these hundreds of thousands, the number of people who regularly participate in drills cannot exceed 50,000. Excluding Some of the craftsmen work for Gao Qiu, and most of the others are engaged in business. If they still want to be elite soldiers as before, then these people should be released as civilians. Although the rest cannot be said to be elite soldiers, they are also well-trained soldiers. Ma, as long as he goes through some battles, he will become an elite soldier sooner or later."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "Then let those who have a living do their business. Only when they pay taxes can the court have money to pay."
Lu Junyi said: "I'm afraid there will be more cities in the future but not enough soldiers and horses."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. They don't want to be soldiers. If we force them to become soldiers, their combat effectiveness will not be high. It is better to recruit new soldiers."
Lin Chong nodded and said: "What the prince is saying is that these people have not participated in many drills but have learned some of the styles of soldiers and gangsters. It would take a lot of effort to train them, so they might as well recruit new soldiers."
"Okay, let's do it this way, disarm and reorganize the rest as soon as possible."
Chao Yong settled the matter, and then said: "Tokyo is now under control. My father and the others will also move from Qingzhou, but there is another Xingren Mansion on the way that is controlled by Song Dynasty officials. We have to arrive at Qingzhou. Go ahead and capture Xingren Mansion to prevent them from sending troops to intercept the emperor."
Li Kui smiled and said: "When we came, Xingren Mansion sent troops to stop us, but I immediately killed them and retreated to the city. If we hadn't rushed to Tokyo, I would have taken advantage of the situation to rob the city."
Lin Chong shook his head and said: "The Xingren Mansion must have thought that we could not defeat Tokyo City, but they wanted to be held accountable for losing the city. Therefore, they just showed off to Zhao Ji and did not send all their troops to intercept us."
Shi Qian didn't know when he hid in the main hall. He jumped down as light as a swallow and squatted in front of Li Kui.
Li Kui was also surprised and shouted: "When did you hide this flea on top? It scared me."
Shi Qian smiled and said, "You have never sat on the dragon chair, but I have never been on the roof of the main hall, so I went up to take a look."
Chao Yong shook his head and said, "Do you have any news?"
Shi Qian nodded and said: "After I arrived in Tokyo with the army, Xingren Mansion sent another group of soldiers and horses to chase them. However, they were afraid of being surrounded and killed by the army, so they just hung far behind."
Lin Chong said with a smile: "My army came to attack Tokyo and passed by Xingren Mansion. Xingren Mansion must be afraid of Zhao Ji's punishment, so they can only send troops to serve the king. However, their soldiers and horses did not dare to fight us, so they had to stay away from us. ¡±
Shi Xiudao: "The prince can ask Zhao Ji to write an imperial edict to make the troops of Xingren Mansion surrender. If they see the power of my Daliang army and have Zhao Ji's imperial edict, they may surrender directly."
Chao Yong then remembered that there was still Zhao Ji to play. After talking to Zhao Ji yesterday, Zhao Ji also thought about it. In order to save his life, he would cooperate.
"Okay, send Zhao Ji over."
Soon, Zhao Ji was brought in and saw many generals in the hall, many of whom were his ministers, but he had not noticed them. Only Xu Ning used to often guard in front of the emperor. After all, he was familiar with them, but now Today, he did not dare to say anything to Xu Ning.
Zhao Ji was imprisoned in a side hall of the palace. He originally thought that he would be alone for the rest of his life, because he really did not dare to ask the Liangshan grass bandits to ask for several concubines to serve him, but he did not expect that Empress Zheng was sent to him to be imprisoned last night. place to come.
When he was still King Duan, Queen Zheng was a maid beside Queen Mother Xiang. He fell in love with Queen Zheng at that time. It was precisely because of Queen Zheng that he often went to pay homage to Queen Mother Xiang, making Queen Mother Xiang think that he was a A well-behaved and filial prince. Therefore, after his brother Song Zhezong died, Empress Dowager Xiang made him a well-behaved child.The shunned prince inherited the throne. Although Zhang Dun, who had all the power at the time, once said that he was too frivolous to rule the world, he still became emperor at the insistence of Empress Dowager Xiang. After he became the emperor, he immediately summoned Zheng and made her a noble concubine. After the death of his original wife, Queen Wang, he made Zheng the queen. Because without her, he wouldn't be able to go to the Queen Mother every day to pay his respects, and he wouldn't be able to be an emperor, let alone the happiness he would have after becoming an emperor.
It's just that Queen Zheng has gotten a little older in recent years, and her skin is not as smooth and tender as before. And he is obsessed with Master Li. There are many young and beautiful concubines in the palace, so the number of visits to Queen Zheng is very few. .
But when he saw Empress Zheng last night, he realized that Empress Zheng was still so touching. Empress Zheng seemed to want to comfort the fallen king, so the two of them had a lot of fun last night.
Zhao Ji did not expect that he could be so happy after becoming the king of a subjugated country, so after going to the palace, he immediately thanked Chao Yong for his kindness. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
