Chapter 594 Unacceptable
That night
Li Chongjin and Zhang Yongde were sitting and drinking in a restaurant, the table was full of wine and food, and there were three sets of bowls and chopsticks.The two were chatting and drinking, discussing Weizhou's defeat of Beihan.It was getting late, and there was no one in the inn. It stands to reason that the restaurant should be open at this time, because the backstage owner of this inn is Li Chongjin, so they used it as a place for evening gatherings.

While chatting, Zhao Kuangyin pushed open the door of the restaurant very calmly, then turned around and closed the door, and sat down at the seat prepared for him, picked up a cup and drank it down.

"How many more did you kill?" Zhang Yongde saw that Zhao Kuangyin was in a very calm state, and he couldn't tell that he had just killed someone. Whether it was breath or murderous aura, Zhao Kuangyin was no different from ordinary people.At this time, Zhao Kuangyin could completely control the excitement after the murder, and killing was a trivial matter for him.

Zhao Kuangyin curled his lips and said: "There are not many, and it's time for me to leave. Basically, there are no traitors in Kaifeng now, so you can rest assured. It's a pity...these traitors have a lot of money in their homes, and now I'm waiting for you to search the house. I can't take it away."

"Why are you people from the Zhao family like this? Are you short of money now?" Li Chongjin said: "Master Zong Xin has withdrawn the share of the salt island. How much money did the island earn? It’s already rich enough to rival a country, how much more do you want?”

"Money, no matter how much is too much. Besides, Zong Xin's money is not taken from the people and used for the people. How much can he spend himself? Now all the food, grass and military salaries in Weizhou and Xuzhou are paid by Lei. The palace provided it, who do you think the money is from? Isn’t it all from Zong Xin, otherwise why would Lei Hong give such a big help? What is the basis for you to drink here quietly now?”

Zhang Yongde said: "Don't tell me these things. I have always wanted to invite Ying to go to the front to fight, but His Majesty refused. He said that the child was just born and Weizhou was too dangerous, so he asked me to stay in Kaifeng to take care of Princess Shouan. Actually, I really want to go to Weizhou. Zhou, I haven’t seen Master Zongxin fight yet. The battle report just came, Weizhou defeated the Northern Han Dynasty, the sound of the drums in the fog concealed the sound of the iron cavalry army, and after approaching, the iron cavalry suddenly charged. At that time, the Northern Han Dynasty was attacking the city, and the team was completely defeated Therefore, we won a complete victory. We were still discussing just now, how did Master Zong Xin fight?"

The battle report was written in great detail for only one reason: I was afraid that others would not believe it.There are only more than 1 troops in Weizhou, and they are soldiers of the Song clan. The Song clan was still in the Northern Han Dynasty just a few months ago, and the wife of the Song clan leader is Liu Chong's niece. Under this situation, Guo Wei has almost no How could it be possible to lead the troops to let the Song clan in Weizhou fight against the powerful Northern Han and Khitan coalition forces.

Ten thousand to tens of thousands can hold on to the city, which is good enough. How could they take the initiative?And he even won a big victory?No one would believe this kind of fantasy.If Guo Wei directly issued a battle report, everyone would think that the country was finished and the emperor would start lying.

Guo Wei deliberately showed the advantages of his reckless birth, and wrote the battle report as a family letter, all in vernacular, describing the entire battle process in great detail. In addition, Zongxin's soldiers are like gods, and he has the ability to summon fog and hail. Officials and people in Bianliang City believed this to be true.

Prior to this, the heavy snow in Xuzhou had already spread to Bianliang City. There is no doubt that Zongxin has the ability to control the weather, because it is impossible for Xuzhou to snow in the south, let alone Zongxin pretending to be The one who did it did a ritual, which made people even more convinced.

Zhao Kuangyin said: "That's why I say that Zong Xin is the most unofficial person in this world. He possesses power that ordinary people can't imagine. But I can tell you clearly that Zong Xin's luck is too bad. If his luck is better , There is no war in this world anymore, if Zong Xin asks Tang, Khitan, Shu, and Northern Han to surrender, they will surrender immediately. Not to mention not daring to resist, not even a fart."

"Is it so evil?" Zhang Yongde said in surprise: "Master Zong Xin's luck is not bad?"

"What about the Red Emperor's true essence that you don't know about?" Zhao Kuangyin said: "If Zong Xin had won the Red Emperor's true essence a few years ago, he would have become number one in the world long ago. And there was an adventure before that, Now Zong Xin is just unlucky, Chidi is not in tune with him, otherwise his martial arts would have been the best in the world, and Bu Xiangyang would not be able to catch him. Even if Datang sent 10 horses, Zong Xin alone could Knock all these 10 horses to the ground."

Although Zhao Kuangyin's words were very loud, Zhang Yongde and Li Chongjin didn't believe them, because Master Zongxin was indeed powerful, and when Chidi Cave captured the true essence, it was clear that Master Zongxin had the winning ticket, and the true essence was scattered everywhere. It makes people out of the world's masters, and many people's skills increase greatly.If Zong Xin owned all those true essences, how high would his martial arts be?No one can imagine.

"That's right, no matter how you say it, as long as there is Master Zongxin's protection, Dazhou will last forever." Li Chongjin said excitedly: "When my little cousin grows up and becomes the emperor, he will be able to After learning half of Master Zong Xin's abilities and leading us to unify the world, I must be a pioneer and expand the territory for Great Zhou."

Zhang Yongde said awkwardly: "Yes~ If it can be like this, it would be the best."

"What's wrong with you? Don't you think my little cousin is not qualified to be emperor?" Li Chongjin said, "He's my uncle's own son, and he's a disciple of Master Zong Xin. Neither of us may know his martial arts when he was just over ten years old. If you can fight, if such a talent is not qualified, who in the world is qualified to be the emperor?"

"That's not the case..." Zhang Yongde said: "There are some things that are inconvenient for me to talk about, Brother Zhao, please tell me."

Zhao Kuangyin said: "Zhang Yongde is right. There are some things that are not convenient for him to talk about. I am not an official in the court, and my martial arts are high enough, so it doesn't matter if I say it. His Majesty Guo Wei only has three years to live after he ascends the throne. When Guo Wei dies, At that time, Tianya was only 13 years old. After what happened to Liu Chengyou, Guo Wei would not hand over the power of the world to an immature child, so he would pass the throne to another person."

"Then...to whom? Uncle has no sons, and besides my nephew, uncle doesn't even have any relatives." Li Chongjin was surprised: "He probably wants to pass the throne to me, right? No, I don't have that ability."

"You are thinking too much." Zhao Kuangyin said: "Guo Wei is planning to pass the throne to his adopted son Chai Rong. Then after Chai Rong dies, Chai Rong will change hands and return the throne to Tianya. This is good, but the only problem is, Chai Rong may not be willing to give it up."

Li Chongjin immediately fell into deep thought. Zhang Yongde already knew these things, so he didn't need to think deeply, he had already thought about it.

"How can this be? Chai Rong is an outsider." Li Chongjin said: "I still have my uncle's blood, my mother is my uncle's sister, and Guo Xin and I have the same grandfather. What is Chai Rong? He is the first An aunt's nephew, he has no blood relationship with my uncle, how can the throne be given to him? Why not give it to me, anyway, Guo Xin is my cousin, even if I become the emperor, I won't harm him, right? Guo Xin and Chai Rong are not related by blood, what if Chai Rong is worried that Guo Xin wants to fight for the throne and kill him?"

Li Chongjin's worry is not unreasonable. Although Chai Rong now looks like a loyal minister and filial son, this is before he became emperor, and no one can tell what state of mind he will be in after becoming emperor.What if Chai Rong turns bad after becoming emperor?Who will be responsible for Guo Xin's safety at that time?What about your own safety.

"Don't worry, with Zong Xin protecting him, Chai Rong can't defeat Zong Xin no matter how capable he is. I guess when Tianya grows up, even if Chai Rong doesn't want to hand over the throne, given Zong Xin's martial arts at that time, he won't dare No." Zhao Kuangyin said: "But I am still very worried. After all, no matter how high a person's martial arts is, there is no problem in self-protection, but he cannot fight against thousands of troops. Of course, you don't have to worry, because... Tianya I don’t want to be the emperor at all. Even if Chai Rong is willing to hand over the throne to Tianya, Tianya will not accept it. This is a problem..."

Li Chongjin waved his hand and said: "Wait a minute, wait a moment. Let me clear my mind first. You mean that my uncle will pass the throne to Chai Rong after his death, and he hopes that Chai Rong will pass it to Guo Xin. But Guo Xin I don't want to be emperor, and Chai Rong doesn't want to give him the throne either... Is that what you mean?"

Zhao Kuangyin said: "That's what I mean, and according to Zong Xin's calculation, the fact is also the same."

Li Chongjin's mood suddenly changed. He was still happy because his uncle won the battle just now, but when he thought that his family's throne would be given to outsiders in more than two years, how could Li Chongjin be happy?My mother-in-law is the same as my father, why doesn't my uncle pass the throne to himself, but to Chai Rong?Of course, Chai Rong's ability is indeed slightly greater than his own, but...

Zhang Yongde said: "Cousin, don't be awkward. If your son-in-law can stand up to half the height, don't even think about it if I don't have a share."

"Bah~ You are also an outsider. But I have the blood of my uncle, why is he facing outsiders?" Li Chongjin said in confusion: "Zhao Kuangyin, is this really what Master Zongxin said? Don't make this joke with me, I can't Can't take it."

"If you think about it carefully, with your uncle's character, would he hand over his country to a 13-year-old child? If not to Tianya, then who can he hand over his country to?"

Zhao Kuangyin did not emphasize again who said this, and only asked Li Chongjin to think about it.After thinking about it carefully, Li Chongjin knew that this would really be the case. At first he thought that his uncle would definitely hand over the country to his cousin, but if his uncle could only be the emperor for three years after he ascended the throne, then he would definitely hand over the country to someone who could trust him. people.
