Wei Zheng Manor.
Cheng Yaojin sighed,
"When a country is about to fall, there will definitely be a monster!”
"Wang Jian is, and so is Li Keyong!"
Wei Zheng snorted coldly and said calmly,
"If Zhao Zong had an outspoken remonstrant by his side.”
"It's impossible for such an ending to happen.”
Cheng Yaojin knew that Wei Zheng was talking about him.
Hence, he rolled his eyes at Wei Zheng and said speechlessly,
"Such an ending can't happen?"
"I think you should wake up!"
"Other than His Majesty, who else can tolerate a remonstrant like you?”
"Besides, with your temper, I'm afraid you won't be able to do anything.”
"I reckon that when the time comes, I'll either be killed by Zhao Zong or angered to death by Zhao Zong!”
Wei Zheng sighed softly.
He dared to speak bluntly.
Li Shimin is also good at accepting remonstrance.
The two complemented each other.
Li Shimin allowed Wei Zheng to realize his ambition.
Wei Zheng also gave Li Shimin the reputation of being broad-minded, which was widely spread in later generations.
……
The video slowly lit up.
The deep voice sounded again.
Zhao Zong failed twice and lost all his prestige.
Zhao Zong gradually became the target of humiliation by the vassals.
Li Maozhen killed the prime minister and led the army to attack Chang 'an.
Zhao Zong fled with the excuse of "northern tour".
Halfway through his escape, Zhao Zong was held hostage and imprisoned for nearly three years!
A deep and steady voice sounded.
The scene changed.
A magnificent palace came into view.
Zhao Zong sat on the dragon throne with a haggard expression.
He tried his best to put on a dignified posture.
"I gave the order three days ago."
"Are there any vassal kings listening?"
A minister stood up and said,"
"Your Majesty, after the two defeats, the relationship between the military governors and the central government has become more and more distant.”
"At least I could still pretend before.”
"We've completely severed all ties with the Great Tang!”
Zhao Zong clenched his teeth tightly.
Ever since he lost two wars.
The military governors were getting more and more overboard.
Suddenly.
He saw the empty Prime Minister seat.
Zhao Zong's anger instantly erupted.
"Where's the Prime Minister?"
"Why isn't the Prime Minister here?"
"The Fan King has ignored me, and even the Prime Minister has begun to ignore me!”
At this moment.
A guard with a saber knelt on one knee and reported.
"Reporting to Your Majesty."
"I just found out that the Prime Minister was killed by thieves at home!”
Not long after.
Zhao Zong's heart skipped a beat.
He knew very well.
The Great Tang was like a sieve, filled with spies of the military governors.
They were like venomous snakes hiding in the dark.
It could bite at him at any time.
However, Zhao Zong had already gritted his teeth and said,
"You can even kill my Prime Minister at will.”
"Is there any law here?”
The ministers were silent.
The Great Tang was in a storm.
And the ministers were too busy to take care of themselves.
The death of a Prime Minister close to the Great Tang was definitely not the beginning.
After a while.
Another guard knelt on one knee.
"Your Majesty."
"Li Maozhen is leading the army to Chang 'an.”
Zhao Zong instantly stood up.
He asked in disbelief,
"What?!"
"You said that Li Maozhen's army is marching towards Chang 'an?”
"Your Majesty, yes!"
Zhao Zong was sweating profusely as he asked,
"How long will it take for Li Maozhen to arrive?”
The guard said with a trembling voice,"
"We will arrive at Chang 'an City in a few days!"
Hearing this news, Zhao Zong sat on the dragon throne in despair.
There was no longer any hope in his heart.
Zhao Zong muttered to himself,
"Li Maozhen, that traitor, has come to Chang 'an to capture me!”
"He wants to imitate Cao Aman."
"Using the Son of Heaven to command the princes!"
"How can I do as Li Maozhen wishes!"
Zhao Zong hurriedly shouted,
"Northern Patrol!"
"I want to patrol the north!"
Seeing that the enemy had yet to attack, Zhao Zong actually wanted to escape.
A minister who was concerned about the Great Tang quickly advised,
"No!"
"Your Majesty, you can't!"
"If His Majesty personally manages the army."
"The Chang 'an Imperial Army still has the power to fight.”
"If Your Majesty escapes, Chang 'an will fall!”
However, Zhao Zong, who had been scared out of his wits by Li Maozhen, did not care about that.
Zhao Zong had not escaped far.
He was stopped by Li Maozhen's ally, Han Jian, and imprisoned in a small courtyard.
Zhao Zong lay on the ground like a dog.
Han Jian looked down at Zhao Zong.
Your Majesty, it's dangerous outside the city."
"I advise Your Majesty to stay in this small courtyard for a while longer!”
Zhao Zong, who was terrified, did not dare to resist.
He would only nod his head vigorously.
……
Seeing Zhao Zong's spineless side.
The people of the Great Tang instantly exploded.
"Trash Zhao Zong!"
"Is this still the Zhao Zong I know?”
"Where did the wisdom to deal with that treacherous official go?”
"Why are you so afraid of death now?”
"The ministers are not afraid of death, but an emperor escaped first!”
"This is the empire of the Great Tang. You deserve to be captured if you give up like this!”
"The enemy has not attacked Chang 'an yet!”
"Why did you run away?"
"What a coward!"
"General, the soldiers are defending Chang 'an, and only the Emperor has escaped!”
"Pathetic!"
"I thought Zhao Zong was a good emperor!”
"But now, it seems that Zhao Zong is inferior to the Ai Emperor!”
Among the people of the Great Tang.
Originally, their attitude towards Zhao Zong was positive.
However, when he saw Zhao Zong's current performance, he was disgusted to the extreme.
The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
……
Taiji Palace.
Li Shi Min sighed,
"The Prime Minister died at the hands of Li Maozhen."
"Li Maozhen's army is about to arrive.”
"Zhao Zong actually thinks he can escape!”
"Sigh…"
"Bei Xun used the excuse to escape, but in reality, everything was under Li Maozhen's nose.”
"How can we still escape!"
"This Zhao Zong has already been scared out of his wits!”
