Reborn Yue Feizhi returns my rivers and mountains

After Kang Lu died, Emperor Gaozong once again urged Generals Miao and Liu to return to the stronghold, saying: "Zhongguan Kang Lu has been punished, and you can return to your base camp."

Miao Fu said again: "Your Majesty, if you don't take the throne right away, where will you go when Yuan Sheng comes back?" Emperor Gaozong had no choice but to order Zhu Shengfei to hang downstairs to give him a warning.

After a final discussion, Miao Fu asked Queen Mother Longyou to listen to the government affairs and send envoys to negotiate peace with Jin.Emperor Gaozong fully agreed, and immediately issued an edict, respectfully asking Empress Dowager Longyou to lower the curtain and listen to the government together.Hundreds of officials were ordered to leave the palace and read the edict in front of the army.

The two generals Miao and Liu refused to pay homage to the imperial edict, but they still said to themselves: "We have a crown prince to establish, and Kuang Daojun and the emperor already have a story." Zhang Kui shouted at the side: "The people are the most valuable, the country is second, and the king is the least." What happened today should be a plan for the people and the country." When all the officials heard this, they all turned pale with shock.

Then he entered the palace and repeated the order: "Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan do not want to worship." Emperor Gaozong asked why, but no one among the officials dared to say anything.

Shi Ximeng reported: "Now there are only two strategies. One is that your majesty will lead hundreds of officials to die in Sheji; the other is that your majesty will invite the three armies."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Yi, the general magistrate of Hangzhou, shouted angrily: "What kind of words are these? How can we obey the words of the three armies?" The ministers couldn't argue, and Gaozong had no choice but to ask the Queen Mother to discuss the matter.

Not long after, the Queen Mother came out of the palace and refused to climb the tower. She just wanted to go out and give orders to the troops.All the officials thought it was impossible and said: "What can I do if I go by invitation?" Only Zhu Shengfei said: "Thieves will not dare! Please come out from the Queen Mother and preach the words, so you can see the evil intentions of the crowd." So he followed the Queen Mother out of the palace. Meet Miao Fu and other generals to observe their intentions.

When Generals Miao and Liu saw the Queen Mother arriving, they led the crowd to worship in front of the public and said: "Today the people are innocent and their hearts are bruised. I hope the Queen Mother will advocate for the world."

The Queen Mother said: "Ever since Emperor Daojun appointed Cai Jing and Wang Fu and updated the ancestral laws, Tong Guan started provocations, thus causing the Jin people and causing today's disaster. Doesn't it have anything to do with the emperor today? The emperor's holy filial piety has not been violated. Virtue was only misunderstood by Huang Qianshan and Wang Boyan, and has been driven away. The ruler alone does not know the evil?"

Fu Miao was unmoved and continued to say: "I have decided that I will make the prince the emperor."

The Queen Mother said: "In peacetime, this matter is not easy. Nowadays, powerful enemies are outside and the prince is young, so it is absolutely impossible. As a last resort, I must listen to the government together with the emperor."

Liu Zhengyan on the side said in a deep voice: "Today's plan has been decided, and there will be no difference in death. I hope the Queen Mother will give her permission soon."

The Queen Mother sternly refused: "The prince is only three years old. As a woman, I hold a three-year-old child in front of the curtain. How can I order the world? If the enemy country hears this, won't they turn to insult him?"

Generals Miao and Liu knelt in front of the public, crying and asking, but the Queen Mother just refused to listen.Miao and Liu turned around and said to the soldiers: "The Queen Mother does not agree to her request, so I will take off my clothes and kill her!" After saying this, they made a gesture of taking off their clothes and exposing their backs.

The Queen Mother quickly said: "Don't you know how to control the descendants of famous families? Today's matter is really difficult to obey."

Miao Fu said again: "The soldiers of the three armies have not eaten since morning, and the matter has not been decided for a long time, fearing that it will change." Then he looked at Zhu Shengfei and said: "Why don't you say a word, sir? Today's major event requires the minister to make a decisive decision." Zhu Shengfei Speechless, I could only remain silent.

At this time, Yan Qi from the palace came to the palace and reported to the Queen Mother: "The emperor ordered his ministers to report that he has decided to ask the Queen Mother for an edict as requested by Master Miao." The Queen Mother still refused, and Miao and Liu threatened her with words.

Later, the Empress Dowager entered the palace, and Emperor Gaozong sent someone to tell him that there was nothing he could do about the matter and that he had to take the throne. Zhu Shengfei knelt down and cried: "As soon as the treacherous plot comes to this, I am the prime minister, and I will die for the country. Please go downstairs to interrogate the two murderers." "

Emperor Gaozong shook his head and said: "The flames are so ferocious that your going will not be complete. If you kill Wang Yuan and harm you, where will you leave me?" Then he stepped back and whispered to Zhu Shengfei: "My interests and interests are exactly the same as yours now." , it should be a later plan; if the plan fails, it is not too late to die." So he ordered Zhu Shengfei to restrain Miao and Liu generals in four ways: first, to respect the emperor as a Taoist emperor, and to provide extremely generous tributes; second, to After the Zen throne, everything will be handled by the Queen Mother and the heirs. On the third day, after the edict is issued, the generals and sergeants will immediately disarm and return to the stronghold. On the fourth day, the soldiers will be prohibited from looting, killing, and setting fires.If he obeys the restrictions, he will issue an edict and abdicate.After hearing this, the second general nodded in agreement.

Emperor Gaozong ordered Li Bing, minister of the Ministry of War and academician of Quanzhi Academy, to issue an edict, which said: "Since I came to the throne, powerful enemies have invaded and invaded as far as Huaidian. Their intention is to express my bow. I am afraid that they will continue to raise troops in vain. Harmful to living beings, afraid of heaven and obedient to people, retreating from the throne. I have Yuanzi, who can ascend to the throne of emperor in the East Palace of Yude. I respectfully invite Queen Mother Longyou to listen to political affairs behind the curtain. The concubine will eliminate the changes in the sky and comfort people's hearts. When the enemy countries hear this, they will stop their troops and make peace. "Li Bing finished the edict, and Emperor Gaozong ordered people to hold it.

Zhu Shengfei came outside the palace to announce the edict. Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan received the edict and ordered their troops to retreat and move to Xiangfu Temple.When the soldiers retreated, Shang shouted loudly in the market: "The world is at peace!" Generals Miao and Liu were afraid that Emperor Gaozong would regret it, so they ordered the troops to guard the palace gates and not allow anyone to come in or out.

After the army retreated, Emperor Gaozong secretly summoned Zhu Shengfei to the back hall. The Queen Mother lowered the curtain behind her and burst into tears when she saw Zhu Shengfei coming.Emperor Gaozong saw this and advised: "Kang Lu and others ignored the generals, made promises in front of the horses, or sat down and fell down, making the generals stand in front of them. This is all a recipe for disaster."

Zhu Shengfei replied: "Second generals, Kang Lu and others must have something to ask for. If they don't get what they ask for, they will be resentful."

Emperor Gaozong asked: "What will happen to this matter?"

Zhu Shengfei reported: "Wang Junfu was a confidant of Miao and Liu. When he just announced the edict, he secretly said to his ministers: 'The two generals are more loyal but less learned.' This statement can be the clue for the future."

Emperor Gaozong nodded and said: "I have come early and have not left the palace of the Queen Mother."

Zhu Shengfei added: "I will be pardoned in the future. The gang of murderers killed Wang Yuan and looted, so I hope he will be pardoned. He can be dispatched, so how can we talk about it again! Now we should call Li Bing to pardon him. It can be discussed together.”

Emperor Gaozong asked: "How about you do it yourself?"

Zhu Shengfei replied: "When we summon the scholars to stay at home, we have all the officials gathered at the Yushitai to read it out. Just like usual, the common people will not doubt the evil." Then he said: "When the queen mother hangs the curtain, the two of them should face each other together. If the minister has a solo to do, he can't do it." How can those who are shaped by paper and pen be the same as other people! If you want to issue an edict, because the current situation is difficult, I ask your officials to report it."

The Queen Mother asked: "Does he have no doubts?"

Zhu Shengfei replied: "It is advisable to introduce someone to the temple with his disciples from the beginning of Miao Fu to eliminate his doubts."

After Zhu Shengfei left the palace, the Queen Mother said to Emperor Gaozong: "If Wang and Huang don't retreat from Lai Xiang, things will be out of control."

The next day, Miao, Liu and other generals went to court to discuss matters. The Queen Mother issued an edict pardoning all his crimes and encouraged him with good words. Miao, Liu and other generals were all happy.So the ministers in the court discussed political affairs, and neither of them doubted it.

On that day, Emperor Gaozong issued an edict to abdicate and live in Xianzhong Temple.The Queen Mother listened to the government behind the curtain, issued an edict of pardon, and named Emperor Gaozong the Ruisheng Emperor, the Renxiao Emperor, and the Xianzhong Temple as the Ruisheng Palace.Emperor Gaozong followed the imperial edict and moved to the Xianzhong Temple. There were 64 officials and guards in charge of the temple.Miao Fu was afraid that there was a servant hiding in it, so he ordered his sergeant to search carefully before letting him go.

Generals Miao and Liu thought that the matter was settled, so they used the name of the emperor and appointed Zhang Chen as the minister of Zhongshu.From then on, Han Shizhong, the Propaganda Envoy of the National Army, the leader of the Imperial Equipment, the Mabu Commander of Yanyan Road, and General Han Shizhong of the Imperial Camp Ping Kou Zuo were appointed as the commander of the four compartments of Tianwu and the Imperial Envoy of the Imperial Camp to oversee the affairs of the capital. .The Wuning Army was appointed as the propaganda envoy, the imperial equipment leader, the deputy general manager of Qin Fenglu's horse infantry, and the commander of the imperial camp's front army Zhang Jun as the commander of the four compartments of Tianwu.He still ordered 300 men to go to Qinfeng, 2000 men to the commander Chen Sigong, 1000 men to the general Yang Yizhong to stay at Wujiang Pass, and I ordered the following commanders to escort him to the line.

Emperor Gaozong stayed in Ruisheng Palace, but Miao Fu was still worried and left 15 internal servants to serve him.They hunted down the eunuchs Lan Gui, Gao Miao, Zhang Quwei, Zhang Dan, Zeng Ze, and Chen Yongxi and demoted them to Lingnan.

Generals Miao and Liu gained power and wanted to follow the story of Cao Cao in the Three Kingdoms. They took the word "Yan" in the reign name to mean two fires and many robbers, which was quite ominous. They wanted to change the Yuan Dynasty and move the capital to Jiankang.The Queen Mother had no choice but to change the Yuan Dynasty to Mingshou after discussing with Zhu Shengfei. However, she declined to move the capital on the grounds that Jiankang was close to the north of the Yangtze River and could not resist the Jin army.
