    At dawn, Gao Taotao was already up and busy. In fact, she only went to bed two hours ago.  Even if you lie on the couch, how can you sleep soundly?  She knew that this was stretching her body and life, but she still had to persist.  The situation in Bianjing City is very bad. Thirty-seven close associates died suddenly, which directly reduced the work efficiency and situation.  Most of the officials have been passive and slack in their work and have disappeared. They are obviously waiting and watching.  No, at this point it should be said that he was waiting, waiting to hug King Qin's lap.  People in the city are already panicking, and Gao Taotao knows very clearly through her few remaining eyes and ears. She doesn't know how long Bianjing can hold on, and she doesn't dare to think about it.  One day is one day, anyway, there is no better way, maybe there will be a turn for the better.  For example, the Khitan suddenly went south to the Yellow River, or Zhao Zhao suddenly died, or he took the initiative or was forced to surrender Gao Taotao clung to the last hope, she was very busy.  His son died and a funeral needed to be planned. Now it was difficult to leave the city. Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty had no choice but to bury him first and pay homage to Zi Gong.  As for the custom of burial in July during the Song Dynasty, it is probably too late. It is simply impossible to send people to Yong'an to repair the mausoleum at this time.  You don¡¯t have to worry about the affairs of the dead, but you must pay attention to the affairs of the living. A country cannot live without a king for a day.  The son died, and the imperial edict was for the sixth prince Zhao Xu to succeed him, so he should support his grandson to ascend the throne.  The busiest thing for Gao Taotao these two days is preparing for the enthronement ceremony. As long as he sits on the dragon throne, his grandson will be the true Emperor of the Song Dynasty.  The status of monarch and ministers was settled.  Even if even if Zhao Zhao leads a large army into the city one day, he will still be a traitor and traitor.  anyway.  His grandchildren will leave records in history books.  Zhao Zhao used his grandfather's seniority to seize the throne from his grandson, and his evil deeds will shine through the annals of history. Even if he can influence the records of historians, he can't cover up all the clues, let alone stop the world's mouth.  Maybemaybe this can be considered a victory!  The etiquette in the palace was already being prepared. The chamberlains and maids were working hard, but it was just the officials of the Ministry of Rites Gao Taotao had to face the fact that the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple were two yamen related to etiquette.  Already completely paralyzed.  Zhang Zongyi, the Minister of Rites, and Chai Yong, the Duke of Chongyi, have long since disappeared. There are too many people like them who are closely related to Zhao Zhao.  Regardless, Gao Taotao no longer cares about them.  The only thing I¡¯m worried about is that today¡¯s enthronement ceremony will have too few people coming, and the scene will be too deserted and too embarrassing.  "Go. Let Di Yong go from house to house to convey the decree. All officials of the fifth rank and above in Beijing must attend the enthronement hall." Gao Taotao was helpless and even had to use force to maintain the minimum dignity.  "Yes!" The chamberlain took the order and left, but came back in a hurry after a while.  They ran and shouted.  Maybe because I was too anxious, I stuttered for a while and couldn't explain clearly.  Gao Taotao had a bad premonition in his heart and asked in a deep voice: "What happened? Tell me slowly!" "The Queen MotherQinKing Qinthe army has entered the city!" The words of the chamberlain had a shocking effect.  , immediately caused an uproar.  Gao Taotao was stunned for a moment, with an indescribable surprise welling up in his heart.  this moment.  She even forgot about her fear. She couldn't explain clearly how she felt.  For a moment, the whole person seemed to be stupid. After a moment of astonishment, Gao Taotao said in a deep voice: "Go find Guo Kui and Di Yong quickly" "Quickly, Queen Mother, there is no need to look for it, it is useless" The chamberlain cried:  "I heard that General Di and General Guo both surrendered to the King of Qin. They were the ones who let the Western Army enter the city." Is it true?  It¡¯s not surprising that Guo Kui is unreliable. Gao Taotao has been wary of him, but Di Yong is he so ungrateful?  Gao Taotao was unbelievable, but if Di Yong didn't move, would Guo Kui dare to do this easily?  Could it be With the last bit of luck, Gao Taotao immediately sent his close guards to investigate, and got the same result.  Di Yong really rebelled!     Why?  Gao Taotao murmured to herself, and she finally realized what it means to betray one's relatives.  There was no abuse, no resentment, nothing to say. Gao Taotao was extremely decadent and seemed to have aged dozens of years in an instant.  Her biggest regret now is that her grandson has not yet ascended the throne. No, she must make a last-ditch effort.  "Go to the Qingshou Palace and invite the Empress Dowager and the eldest princess!" Gao Taotao issued a decree coldly. The pronunciation of the word "please" was particularly strong, and the guards could understand clearly how to implement it.   Gao Taotao sat in front of the main hall and waited silently. At this moment, she didn't care much anymore. King Qin had already entered the city anyway.  There was no politeness or concern at all, and even the last trace of emotion for my aunt had disappeared.  At this point, she plans to be a woman who doesn't recognize her relatives.  However, the result disappointed her once again.  The chamberlain came back to report that the Empress Dowager and the eldest princess were no longer in the Qingshou Palace, and even Concubine Miao was missing.  Half an hour ago, Xiao Hai, the former chamberlain of Chui Gong Palace, went to pretend to convey the Queen's instructions, took away three nobles, and then disappeared.  Gao Taotao was completely speechless. It turned out that someone had planted eyes and ears around him, and he had never noticed it until now.  ??Look, they are taking every step of the way, and there is nothing left to be done!  In an instant, she lost her last one, two, or three trump cards.  Originally, I thought that as long as I had these three cards, I could somehow deal with Zhao Zhao and at least maintain the minimum safety.  But now, there is nothing left, and we are completely at the mercy of others.  Without Cao and Zhao Fukang, what can we do to threaten Zhao Zhao?  Without Di Yong, who would make the final resistance for her?  Sun Tzu has not yet ascended the throne, what can he give in exchange for Zhao Zhao?  Empress Dowager Gao, who had a high status and strong self-confidence, was finally a little uneasy and began to have fear in her heart.  ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ Zhao Zhao entered the city. He entered Bianjing without any encouragement and fighting.  The situation gave many officials and generals ideas.  Especially the general Guo Kui, his confidence has already been loosened.  He planned to surrender to the King of Qin.  With his status, King Qin will not treat him badly after surrendering.  It's just that the only person who needs to worry is Di Yong. With him around, many of his actions will be restricted.  Guo Kui did not dare to act rashly until someone brought the news that Di Yong agreed to surrender.  Di Yong received a warning from her father Di Qing.  Finally a decision was made.  At this point, I can only choose or give up.  He chose righteousness, the love between father and son, and gave up narrow kindness and foolish loyalty. Fortunately, he did not lose the love between husband and wife.  Zhao Zhao accepted the surrender of Guo Kui and Di Yong, but for the sake of safety, he did not enter the city immediately.  The more critical the situation, the more careful you must be.  We must be careful of such things as false surrender. Zhao Zhao does not want the river to capsize in the gutter.  So, Zhao Zhao sent his trusted general Shi Jianfei to lead his army into the city, first to take over Bianjing City.  Shi Jianfei is young and about the same age as Zhao Zhao.  He was from Qinfeng Road and moved to Chang'an with his father when he was young.  Shi Jianfei received a good enlightenment education when he was a child. It was Shi Jianfei's biggest wish to pass the imperial examination and become the number one scholar outside Donghua Gate.  It¡¯s a pity that God¡¯s will played a trick on people. After he was admitted as a scholar at the age of seventeen.  His family suddenly encountered changes.  His father failed in business and the family suddenly fell into decline.  Shi Jianfei¡¯s road to studying and taking the imperial examination was blocked.  In desperation, he chose the same path as most of the Guanlong men and joined the Western Army.  Soldiers who have read books are different after all. They have further knowledge and are more likely to stand out once given the opportunity.  Over the past few years, Shi Jianfei had reached the level of Zhaowu Colonel. Later, he performed exceptionally well and made great military exploits in several battles between the Western Army and Xixia.  If it was just meritorious, Zhao Zhao would only reward him and not take it so seriously.  The key is that Shi Jianfei has many military insights and can make rational judgments and find the most appropriate tactics based on the enemy's characteristics and situation.  For example, regarding the issue of dealing with Liao and Xixia, Shi Jianfei clearly pointed out that the strategies and tactics of fighting the two countries are slightly different.  The Western Army is good at mountain warfare, but not good at plain warfare.  If the Western Army is transferred over to deal with the invading Khitans, the effect will not be particularly good.  Zhao Zhao greatly appreciated that in the original history, the Western Army was finished.  When the Jin soldiers invaded the south, Song Huizong hurriedly summoned Zhong Shidao to mobilize the Western Army to stop the attack.  As a result, it not only failed to stop the Jin soldiers from going south, but also completely damaged the soldiers of the Western Army, which is really a pity.  It is rare for a young general to have such insight.  Therefore, stay with me and cultivate carefully.  Most of the generals around him were unable to get away because they were conquering Hexi or guarding the northwest. Shi Jianfei stood out and became the general accompanying the Chinese army in the attack on Bianjing.  Judging from the current situation, Shi Jianfei performed very well. He only invited Qin King Zhao Zhao to enter the city after he was sure that Bianjing was completely under control and safe and sound.  Their goal is directly towards the palace, which is the center of the world and major events can only be determined there.  Once the Western Army enters the city, the small palace wall wants toThere is no way to stop them.  Seeing the familiar city and the familiar palace again, Zhao Zhao felt a little strange, and at the same time, he was vaguely excited.  The excitement that a dream of several years has finally come true is self-evident.  It's just that before the big thing is determined, he must maintain the minimum reserve.  After entering the palace, I found that the decorations everywhere were extremely grand, the atmosphere was very festive, and it looked like the scene was quite big.  The coronation ceremony!  Soon Zhao Zhao learned the purpose of Gao Taotao's arrangement. She wanted to support the young Zhao Xu to ascend the throne as emperor.  It¡¯s just that I didn¡¯t choose the right day and ended it by myself!  But maybe it's a good thing. Zhao Zhao looked at Gao Taotao who was sitting slumped on the ground and said coldly: "The enthronement ceremony is so well prepared. It really saves a lot of trouble. Thank you very much. It's better to choose the day than to hit it. In this case, summon him immediately  Hundreds of officials have entered the palace, and the king will directly hold the enthronement ceremony today.
