Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Li Renyi thought for a while and said, "Ren Xianggong is right, what should I do?"

"We enter the palace to welcome the crown prince to the throne."

Chapter 1083 Xixia civil strife (third change)

Facts have proved that once the overall situation is chaotic, more people will have different ideas and do some desperate things.

Those who usually look gentle, their inner desires are actually suppressed by the strict hierarchy.

Once the hierarchy is loosened, they will change from gentle lambs to bloodthirsty wolves at any time.

On this day, Prince Li Renxiao was studying in the palace when a servant serving tea came in and put the tea set on the small table as usual.

But this servant did something today that made it impossible for everyone to react.

He put down the tea set, and at a very close distance from Li Renxiao, he suddenly pulled up the small desk and smashed it on Li Renxiao's head.

This action was so sudden that the surrounding attendants had no time to react.

15-year-old Li Renxiao also couldn't react in time. He was hit on the forehead and fell to the ground on the spot.

At this time, the servants and maids in the palace screamed in panic, and the guards outside hurried in and arrested the servant.

Then Li Renxiao didn't know whether he was dead or alive, anyway, his forehead was bleeding.

Li Qianshun's concubine Cao Shi, Li Renxiao's biological mother, hurried over after learning about it.

It happened at this time that Ren Dejing led the iron kite army into the palace, and when he learned that the prince had been attacked, Ren Dejing was furious: "Which madman dares to attack the Tian family, he will implicate the whole family!"

The news that the prince was attacked spread quickly.

The palace urgently summoned all the ministers into the palace to discuss matters.

As soon as the officials entered the palace, they could not help being shocked when they saw that the iron kite army commanded by Li Renyi was also in the palace, and just outside the main hall.

But he heard crying from the hall again, and when he entered, he found that it was Concubine Cao who was crying bitterly.

Ren Dejing comforted at the side: "Your Majesty, take care of your health, I have already arranged for people to chase after the murderer!"

"Ren Dejing, what are you doing here?" the deputy privy envoy Wang Chang scolded.

The Wang family is a wealthy Xixia family, and Wang Chang's daughter is Li Renxiao's concubine.

"Master Wang, the crown prince has been attacked!" Ren Dejing cried loudly, as if his own son had been attacked.

"Where is the prince at this time?" Wang Chang asked with a sullen face.

"The prince is naturally in the East Palace, and the imperial doctor is inquiring."

"Then why are you still here, the officials are going to the East Palace."

"Wait a minute, go to the East Palace now, disturb the imperial doctor's consultation, and affect the crown prince, who can afford this crime!" Ren Dejing said.

"Then what do you think?" Wang Chang asked.

Ren Dejing looked at the group of officials, and suddenly said: "My lords, I have some bad news for you."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and Wang Chang said angrily: "Say something quickly!"

"Your Majesty..." Ren Dejing suddenly burst into tears, "Your Majesty has died in battle!"

As soon as he said this, the audience was in an uproar.

"Ren Dejing, do you know what you're talking about!"

"I know!"

"You dare to talk nonsense, I'll kill you!" Wang Chang rushed over, but was stopped by Li Renyi and others.

"Li Renyi, how dare you stop me!" Wang Chang said coldly, "I am the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, your superior!"

"Your Majesty has indeed died in battle," Li Renyi said.

"You saw it with your own eyes?"

"I... I didn't see it with my own eyes, but it's already too bad."

"If you don't see it with your own eyes, you don't count."

"Now that Song Jun has arrived, we shouldn't have unnecessary quarrels at this time." Ren Dejing said.

"Then what do you say?"

"Hurry up to welcome the new emperor to stabilize Chao Gang." Ren Dejing said.

"The crown prince is in a coma, how to welcome the new king?"

"If the prince cannot succeed, he can only welcome other princes to succeed!"

Wang Chang sneered, he suddenly sensed Ren Dejing's plot: "Then who do you want to welcome as the successor?"

"Fourth Prince Li Renxin."

Li Renxin was born to Ren Dejing's daughter.

Wangchang laughed loudly: "Ren Dejing, Ren Dejing, your wishful thinking is good! Do you know how old the fourth prince is this year?"

"One year old."

"You know he is one year old, how dare you talk nonsense!"

"Then do you want to welcome a comatose prince?"

"So what, the prince is still alive."

"But the Song army has already arrived. Do you want to tell the officials and the people that our new king is unconscious and his life or death is uncertain?"

"You..." Wang Chang pointed at Ren Dejing's nose and cursed, "Ren Dejing is the prince you sent someone to attack!"

"You can eat indiscriminately, but don't talk indiscriminately!"

"How dare you make excuses!"

"I'm all for Daxia!" Ren Dejing said, "Now the country cannot live without a king. If you neglect for a moment, Daxia is in danger of subjugation!"

The officials immediately started discussing, and they all felt that what Ren Dejing said was reasonable.

Mainly Li Renyi, the deputy commander of the Iron Kite Legion, also supported Ren Dejing.

"Ren Dejing!" Wang Chang shouted loudly, "Damn you! Come, someone, drag this dog thief who defected from the Song Dynasty out, cut him up and feed him to the dog!"

The soldiers outside the hall immediately entered the hall, but Li Renyi and others also showed their swords: "Who dares to move!"

The combat effectiveness of the general palace guards is definitely not as strong as that of soldiers who often go to the battlefield, let alone the Iron Kite Legion.

Seeing Li Renyi appearing on the stage, the palace guards shrank back timidly.

Ren Dejing said sadly, "I'm all for Da Xia!"

The officials immediately said: "Let the minister decide everything!"

Wang Chang scolded: "It is the prince who was attacked by this dog thief!"

"Wangchang, you have wronged me all the time, and I don't care about you." Ren Dejing said, "The bones of the late emperor are not yet cold, and Daxia is in danger. Now I want to save Daxia. Come and bring concubine Ren and the fourth prince here. The ministers welcome the new emperor!"

Brother Li Cha who arrived in Jingzhou never expected that Ren Dejing was one step ahead of him.

But don't forget that Brother Li Cha, as Li Qianshun's younger brother, has been in charge of Xixia's military affairs for decades, and is a truly prestigious and powerful figure in Xixia.

People are only temporarily forced by Ren Dejing's one-sided words and the power of the iron kite to accept Ren Dejing.

On the [-]th, when Brother Li Cha left Jingzhou, he suddenly received a notification from Xingzhou, and only then did he learn that the new emperor had ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world.

An emergency military order was also issued to Jingzhou for a comprehensive defense.

Brother Li Cha asked the official who sent the order: "The new emperor? Who has ascended the throne?"

"It's the fourth prince."

"Fart! The fourth prince is only one year old, how did he ascend the throne?"

"It is Ren Xianggong and all the ministers who support him unanimously!"

"Ren Dejing!" Brother Li Cha was stunned for a moment, and then he was furious, "Your Majesty's life and death are uncertain, he dares to do anything wrong in Xingzhou!"

Immediately, Zhang Chunming asked, "Where is the prince?"

"The prince has been attacked."

Zhang Chunming and Brother Li Cha looked at each other, Zhang Chunming said: "Ren Dejing is a good trick!"

"Hurry up and return to Beijing, this king will kill this dog thief with his own hands!"

Brother Li Cha rushed to Xingzhou, Wei Ming Anhui also rushed to Xingzhou.

At this time, in the royal palace of Xingzhou, the ministers were arguing about the next thing, and they almost beat each other and broke their heads.

The letter of request for help from Lingbu Zhongshan has been sent to Xingzhou, and Xingzhou also learned that the heavy soldiers of the Song army had arrived in Lingzhou.

Whether to support, how to support, this problem is placed in front of the officials of Xixia.

Chapter 1084 Surrounding the Points for Aid (First Change)

Regarding the matter of supporting Lingzhou, the officials of Xixia had no objection.

After all, as soon as Lingzhou was broken, Song Jun went directly to Xingqing Mansion.

The objection lies in where the soldiers are transferred.

Ren Dejing used disgraceful means to force the officials to submit during a special period.

In the final analysis, the position is not correct and the confidence is insufficient.

In this case, even if you are in a position, it is extremely easy to cause internal conflicts when making key decisions.

For example, the right to deploy troops is temporarily in the hands of Wang Chang, who is the deputy envoy of the Privy Council.

Most of Xixia's official positions are borrowed from Song Dynasty. Brother Li Cha is a privy envoy who holds the right to deploy troops and is the No. 1 military authority in Xixia.

Brother Li Cha is not here, so Wang Chang can dispatch troops in an emergency.

Although Wang Chang had conflicts with Brother Li Cha, the conflict between Wang Chang and Ren Dejing was obviously bigger than everything else.

As a result, Ren Dejing said he wanted to transfer troops from Shunzhou and Jingzhou, but Wang Chang insisted on transferring troops from Helan Mountain.

There is no other reason. A considerable number of people in Shunzhou and Jingzhou have close contacts with Wangchang.

And Ren Dejing won the hearts of many people in the Helan Mountain area.

Both sides want the other party's people to go to Lingzhou to fight the Song army, and both sides want to preserve their respective strengths. After the other side's people are transferred to Lingzhou, they will immediately transfer their own people to Xingzhou to defend their position in the court.

The final result was that [-] troops were dispatched from Helan Mountain to rush southward to Lingzhou.

This result shows that although Ren Dejing temporarily supported his grandson, he has not yet gained real power.

At the critical moment, even Li Renyi was in a neutral position, instead of doing what Ren Dejing said, they would do it.

This afternoon, the Privy Council's troop dispatch order was urgently issued from Xingzhou.

The Helan Mountain military camp was only fifty miles away from Xingzhou. In the evening, the Helan Mountain military camp received the news.

That night, the army began to gather.

In the early morning of the [-]th, [-] soldiers and horses set off in a hurry and headed for Lingzhou quickly.

At noon on October [-], a scout rushed towards a hidden hillside near Qingtongxia.

"Report! Li Shuai!" The scout rushed outside the tent, "There is the latest military information!"

"Come in!"

After the scouts went in, they saw a man standing in front of the map, looking at the map intently.

This man has a tall and straight figure, a firm face, and a spirit in his eyes.

He is Li Yanxian, the envoy of Jinglue on Xihe Road.

"Shuai Li! There is movement in the Helan Mountain Barracks of the Western Thieves, and a force of tens of thousands of troops is heading south."

"Can the marching target be determined?"

"Avoid Shunzhou!"

"Avoided Shunzhou?" Guan Shigu on the side said, "It seems that the western thief is going to Lingzhou?"

"The western thief must be going to Lingzhou!"

Guan Shigu said: "This place is the home ground of the western thieves. Our army should investigate again before taking action."
