Xiang Han finished flipping through the information,
A little eunuch reported in fear and trepidation outside the hall, "Your Majesty, the civil and military ministers of the previous dynasty are kneeling outside Zichen Hall,
Pleading, pleading... "
Xiang Han sighed faintly and said, "This is forcing me to abdicate."
The little eunuch knelt outside the hall with a plop,
He was so scared that he didn't dare to make a sound.
According to the original plot, Song Han was very angry with the ministers at this time. He felt that the imperial court was full of people from the Zhao family.
Without the three mountains pressing down, he could do whatever he wanted. He directly issued an edict to beat the leaders with a plank.
Those ministers were also fierce. After being beaten, they howled 'fatuous ruler',
They directly hit the pillar,
Blood splattered on the spot.
Song Han was determined to kill Zhao Bingzhang. He was only one step away. How could he let go?
Therefore, the ministers either knelt or died, but the result still didn't change.
After executing Zhao Bingzhang, Song Han found that the world was still the same,
The imperial court was still the same.
Although a few ministers died, it was insignificant,
He could just promote a few more to make up for it,
No one could do anything to him.
He finally experienced the taste of power,
He understood that 'I am the world'. From then on, he ran wildly on the path of a fatuous ruler.
Whoever opposed him, he would suppress them.
Whoever spoke displeasingly,
He would promote those who spoke displeasingly.
When Zhao Ze led his troops all the way from the border to Chang'an,
Song Han suddenly realized,
He was surrounded by people planted by Song Yu to slander and flatter him. None of them could be used.
After Song Han was dethroned, Song Yu 'reluctantly' ascended the throne under the repeated pleas of the ministers.
After stabilizing the throne, the first thing he did was to kill the dethroned emperor, Song Han. Then, in the name of avenging the dethroned emperor, he dealt with Zhao Ze.
Zhao Ze didn't know until his death that when the Zhao family was destroyed, it was also Song Yu who instigated Song Han.
Otherwise, with Song Han's fear of the three assistant ministers, how would he dare to act rashly?
Song Yu was truly an inspirational example of a dethroned Crown Prince enduring humiliation and successfully making a comeback.
But if it was someone else, why was it so bitter?
Xiang Han rolled on the dragon bed and sighed deeply.
His mission this time was to help Zhao Ze recognize Song Yu for who he really was. He had to pledge his loyalty to a wise ruler and become a famous minister.
The late Emperor only had two sons, and one of them was Old Wang's son. If he wanted to find a wise ruler for Zhao Ze, it could only be him.
But if he guessed correctly, Zhao Ze should have been rescued by Song Yu's men, and they were planning to assassinate him tonight … Well, it should be to force him to withdraw the edict and save Zhao Bingzhang and the others.
However, in the original plot, Zhao Ze was discovered as soon as he entered the bedroom. Because he was tortured in the prison, he had to fight with the guards and had to leave in a sorry state.
Song Han was so scared that he hid under the bed. The two of them didn't even see each other from beginning to end.
The System saw him sighing and suggested seriously, "Since the ministers are all kneeling outside, why don't we just go down the stairs.
“
"Where's my prestige?" Xiang Han said faintly.
The System said, "Uh, then what should we do?" The edict was already given. If he didn't go back on his word, would he really have to behead Zhao Bingzhang?
Xiang Han thought for a while, and ordered the guards to watch the ministers. If they wanted to kneel, then kneel, and don't hit the pillars.
He remembered that after the deaths of the ministers, besides being a tyrannical and fatuous ruler, Song Han also gained a reputation of being cruel and heartless.
Moreover, the deaths of the other two ministers were also inexplicably blamed on him.
After ensuring that the ministers wouldn't be killed again, Xiang Han started to think of a solution.
First of all, these ministers couldn't be spoiled. They kept saying things like 'loyal', 'wronged', 'framed by villains', which wasn't persuasive at all.
If he withdrew the edict, it would seem like he was forced by the situation.
What if these people came to kneel again if something happened in the future?
After thinking about it, he still had to start with Zhao Ze.
After thinking of a solution, Xiang Han left the bedroom and started the daily routine of a wise ruler – reviewing documents.
Fortunately, in the first world, he practiced calligraphy. With the influence of the original owner's memory, he could almost imitate the other person's handwriting to a hundred percent.
Under the guidance of Big A, Little B and the System, he symbolically approved a few. He didn't dare to approve too many, but he also didn't dare to approve too well, so as to avoid being seen as abnormal.
Seeing that the sky was about to turn dark, Xiang Han stopped working. He rubbed his stomach and went to the East Warm Pavilion to eat.
Speaking of which, the Emperor was really troublesome to eat. There were so many dishes, but he couldn't reach them. He had to watch the eunuchs try them all before it was his turn.
Fortunately, the chopsticks were separate. If it wasn't for the side effects of the previous world's mysophobia, he wouldn't have been able to eat.
The ministers knelt from morning till night, and even when the sky was dark, they still didn't leave.
After Xiang Han was full, he asked the eunuchs to send the leftovers over, so that they wouldn't say that he was cruel in the future.
If the Emperor was willing to give the leftovers to his ministers, it would be a great honor.
Returning to the bedchamber, in order to make it easier for Zhao Ze to enter, Xiang Han dismissed the guards around him.
Thinking that the other party would only come at midnight, he planned to take a bath and sleep for a while.
However, he never expected that just as he dismissed the eunuchs and palace maids and sat in the bathtub, the other party would come.
Xiang Han was stunned when a completely black, bone-chilling dagger was pressed against his neck.
What happened to the promised time of midnight?
It was only seven o 'clock. Did he read the plot wrongly?
In fact, Zhao Ze had been guarding nearby. In the original plot, he chose to come at midnight because the guards just happened to change shifts at that time. Moreover, he was the most sleepy and wouldn't be easily discovered.
However, after Xiang Han dismissed the guards …
Zhao Ze suddenly appeared behind him. At this time, he was very close to him. He could even feel the other party's coldness.
According to the original owner's cowardly character, he should be panicking and shouting at the top of his lungs.
Xiang Han planned to say something. However, just as he opened his mouth and before he could shout, he felt the dagger come closer and his neck hurt.
Xiang Han immediately closed his mouth and pretended to shrink back.
"Come out." Zhao Ze finally spoke, his tone cold.
Xiang Han was silent. After a moment, he pretended to tremble and said, "Zhen, zhen is not wearing clothes."
Zhao Ze was obviously a little impatient. He directly pulled him out, and then quickly pulled out a robe for him.
Xiang Han held the robe in a daze. Before he could react, the dagger was pressed against his neck. His face turned red with anger.
Just coming out of the bathtub was a bit cold. He shivered as he put on the robe. Only then did he have time to look at Zhao Ze.
The other party had just come out of the prison. He was wearing the clothes of a eunuch. His face was bruised and the corners of his mouth were a bit swollen and stained with blood. It was impossible to see his true appearance.
His eyes were a bit dark and looked very deep. They were a bit like Lu Ze and the others.
Xiang Han's expression was a bit complicated. He didn't know if he was disappointed or happy.
Zhao Ze probably didn't know his current appearance. When he saw Xiang Han glancing at him from the corner of his eyes and his face turning red, he instantly thought of the rumors that the other party was lustful. He couldn't help but feel a bit of disdain.
The person he and his father swore to be loyal to was actually such a muddle-headed, incompetent and absurd thing.
"Go." He pressed the dagger against Xiang Han, forcing him to leave and walk towards the table.
Xiang Han took two steps and suddenly stopped. He pretended to be shocked and said, "It's you?"
Zhao Ze frowned slightly. He heard the other party gnashing his teeth and said, "Rebel, you dare to threaten zhen?
How did you escape from the prison? "
After saying that, he shouted loudly, "Men … Mmm."
Before he could finish the word 'men', his mouth was covered by the other party.
Zhao Ze's hand was wrapped in sackcloth. It was full of the smell of rust, sweat, and herbs. Xiang Han was still suffering from the aftereffects of the last world. He suddenly felt a wave of nausea.
The little eunuch heard the commotion and quickly stood outside the door and asked, "Your Majesty?"
Zhao Ze's eyes darkened. He quickly turned around and pressed him against the wall. The dagger was pressed against his neck. He coldly warned, "If you dare to speak nonsense, only death awaits. Do you understand?"
Xiang Han was so disgusted that tears almost flowed out. He nodded repeatedly to show that he understood. After he was released, he immediately retched and gasped for breath.
Zhao Ze frowned and reminded, "Answer."
Xiang Han really wanted to ask the System to help beat him up. But when he thought of Song Han's character, he finally gave up. He endured the discomfort and said, "It's nothing. You can leave."
After the eunuch left, Xiang Han immediately said with a trembling voice, "You, you came to kill me?
I knew that your Zhao family wouldn't let me go.
My royal brother was right. None of the assistant ministers are good people. You all want to usurp the throne and kill me.
I really hate that I didn't listen to my royal brother's words. I should have ordered the execution of your Zhao family earlier … "
He said 'I' one moment and 'I' the next. His words were incoherent. Tears from retching fell from his eyes. He looked like he was scared out of his wits.
The original body had only been in power for less than half a year. He was only 16 years old. He had been living in fear of the three assistant ministers. He couldn't eat well, sleep well, and looked a little thin. At this time, his eyes were red and he looked very pitiful.
Zhao Ze suddenly became silent. He originally came to force the little emperor to write the edict.
The commander of the imperial guards guarding Chang 'an was his father's student. As long as he could save his father from the prison, leaving Chang' an was not a problem.
Since ancient times, the assistant ministers didn't have a good ending. After the little emperor took over power, it was normal to want to eliminate his father.
Originally, his father had already planned to resign. In order to make the little emperor believe, he even pretended to be sick.
But he didn't expect that the little emperor didn't intend to let them leave alive.
Before coming, Zhao Ze always thought that the little emperor deliberately fabricated evidence to frame his father.
But after listening to the other party's "crying," he suddenly realized that things didn't seem to be as he thought.
The little emperor really thought that his father wanted to rebel and kill the emperor. And Emperor Liang, who rescued him from the prison and persuaded him to leave Chang 'an, was also involved in the conspiracy.
Zhao Ze didn't suspect that the little emperor was pretending, but he stared for a while and found that the little emperor's eyes were filled with tears. His eyes didn't look away at all. It really didn't look like he was lying.
Emperor Liang was only released from confinement two years ago. He usually only admired flowers and played with birds in his mansion and didn't care about court affairs.
But thinking about it now, he and his father might have been paralyzed by this person.
An idle prince actually had the ability to rescue him from the Imperial Prison?
"Don't cry," Zhao Ze put away the dagger, frowned slightly and asked, "Was it Emperor Liang who told your father to rebel?"
