Hearing this, Zhao Chen was taken aback for a moment, and then a mocking smile appeared on his face!

"What? Your Royal Highness, don't you believe that Emperor Jianyan will march into Hanzhong? For the sake of the Song Dynasty and the people of the world, Emperor Jianyan will definitely do this! Even if Emperor Jianyan does not do this, we will strongly advise him to do so ! At that time, when soldiers meet, His Highness the Crown Prince will definitely not be the opponent of Emperor Jianyan in the land of Hanzhong! If His Highness the Crown Prince dies in the flames of war, it will be a bad thing!" Zhao Ding said.

"That's not what I mean! I have a deep understanding of Zhao Gou's viciousness! If he occupies Sichuan, he will definitely go north. You don't need to remind me of this!" Zhao Chen laughed.

"Then what does His Royal Highness mean?" Zhao Ding asked.

"I mean, can Zhao Gou really occupy Sichuan?" Zhao Chen laughed.

Zhao Ding froze there, looking at Zhao Chen puzzled!

"General Zhe, it's up to you to tell Mr. Yang and Mr. Zhao!" Zhao Chen said.

Zhe Keqiu stood up and said with a big smile, "To tell you the truth, our Zhejia army entered Sichuan a few days ago! I just received a letter from Xiaoer yesterday, saying that he has already settled in Chengdu! Wu Jie, Wu Lin and others are now Heading towards Yuzhou, it is not far from Yuzhou now! King Kang is in Kaifeng, and he wants to transfer troops into Sichuan, the journey is far! Forcing His Highness the Crown Prince by force, one is treasonous, the other is a dream, it is impossible!"

Zhao Chen still looked at Yang Shi and Zhao Ding with a mocking smile, but Yang Shi and Zhao Ding stayed there!

"How could this be? If this is the case, Emperor Jianyan occupied the Central Plains and Jiangnan, wouldn't you, the crown prince, occupy Hanzhong and Sichuan? How could this be?" After a long time, Yang Shi said in disbelief.

"Has King Kang occupied the Central Plains? Huh, what a joke! Hedong, Hebei, and Shandong are all in the hands of the Jurchens. How can he be regarded as occupying the Central Plains? Although he now occupies Kaifeng, Shangqiu and other places, when the Jurchens go south again, those The place will definitely be lost! In the final analysis, he can only go south of the Yangtze River at most!" Zhe Keqiu sneered.

"His Royal Highness, General Zhe, are you trying to split the country?" At this moment, Zhao Ding shouted fiercely!

"Split the country? It's clearly King Kang, the traitor who split the country. How could we split the country? His Royal Highness the crown prince is the crown prince of the country. It is only natural for him to become emperor and control the whole country! After the crown prince ascends the throne, he will naturally be a legitimate emperor. Pseudo-emperor! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince embraces Hanzhong, Sichuan, Guanshan and other places, and sooner or later he will be able to restore the mountains and rivers and kill the false emperor!" Zhe Keqiu sneered.

"His Royal Highness, you have to think twice! You are the prince of the Song Dynasty, the eldest son of the former emperor, and the eldest grandson of the Supreme Emperor. Logically speaking, you should indeed inherit the throne! But you are really too young. Emperor Jianyan is now You have already ascended the throne, so you can't do anything to split the country! If you do this, you will only make your loved ones hurt your enemies!" Zhao Ding said, staring at Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen smiled and said, "I have an idea!"

Zhao Ding said: "I don't know what the idea is?"

Zhao Chen said: "King Kang's succession is not in line with the principles of ethics, and people in the world will not accept it! If he kills me, the prince, outside Xiangzhou City, then as the only royal child, he is naturally qualified to inherit the throne! However, he did not Kill me! Now that he is on the throne, the hearts of the world are in turmoil! Zhao Ding, in your opinion, is it more to your liking if I, the prince, die? It will make the world more stable? And there will be no splitting of the country?"

"This..." Zhao Ding stayed there!

He thought carefully, Zhao Chen was right! But how could he nod in agreement?

Over there, Yang Shi also stayed there, at a loss!

With a mocking smile on Zhao Chen's face, he said, "What do you guys think of this idea?"

"This...His Royal Highness is joking!" Zhao Ding could only say.

"If you don't agree with this idea, I have another idea!" Zhao Chen said again.

"I don't know what the idea is?" Zhao Ding said.

"Go back and tell Zhao Gou to let him go to Hanzhong! I am too young to lead the army and the people to fight against the Jurchens! He is an adult, and I can temporarily let him take charge of the government!" Zhao Chen said.

"Your Highness means to let Emperor Jianyan proclaim himself emperor in Hanzhong?" Zhao Ding asked in surprise.

"How could it be proclaiming the emperor? Didn't you just say that he is a vassal king, if proclaiming the emperor violates the ethics, the people of the world will not accept it! I can make him the regent! Let him temporarily manage the state affairs! You two just need to persuade Kang Wang can just abdicate!" Zhao Chen said.

"How is this possible!" Zhao Ding shook his head!

He didn't stay with Zhao Gou for long, but he also knew that Zhao Gou was greedy for power! In fact, let alone Zhao Gou, if anyone sat on the throne of the emperor, he would not be willing to abdicate! For a man, to be in charge of a country's political power, one thought can determine the death of thousands of people, to do anything unscrupulously, without looking at anyone's face, this is undoubtedly the greatest joy! How could Zhao Gou give up the power in his hands?

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, it's only a temporary split! You have to remember one truth, it's not me who split the country, it's him who split the country! This is not my opinion alone, but the opinion of all people in the world! As for what you said, it is absolutely impossible for me to go to Shangqiu and hand over the Jade Seal of Chuanguo!" Zhao Chen said flatly.

Yang Shi and Zhao Ding both had disappointed expressions on their faces, they all knew they couldn't convince Zhao Chen! In the future, Da Song may really split up!

"His Royal Highness! Are you really more greedy for power than your ancestors?" Zhao Ding gritted his teeth and said again.

"Are you greedy for power?" Zhao Chen had a dumbfounding expression on his face! What kind of power does he have now! He is a prince in name, but actually a puppet! All the power is in the palm of your hand! Now he often can't even keep his own life, so why is he greedy for power?

He just can't hand over power to Zhao Gou! If Zhao Gou controls the world, the first one who can't let him go is him, the crown prince! Besides, Zhao Gou will never conquer the Central Plains, welcome back the Second Emperor, and save all the people in the world!

"Lord Zhao, what you said is ridiculous! This is like the property left by the father. The son takes it for granted, so what is there to be greedy for? On the contrary, it is an outsider coveting other people's property. This is greed! Obviously it is Kang Wang who is greedy for power , how did you say that the prince is greedy for power?" Li Gang stood up at this moment and said coldly.

"This..." Zhao Ding stayed there, speechless!

Seeing Yang Shi and Zhao Ding were speechless, Zhao Chen smiled and said, "The tenth day of the next month is an auspicious day, and my palace will be enthroned on that day! Since you are here, don't ask for it for the time being." Let's go, stay and watch the ceremony!"

*** ***

Yang Shi and Zhao Ding had already come out of the Qianqing Palace, and they were walking towards the outside of the Han Palace!

Yang Shi looked aggrieved, and said: "His Royal Highness is ridiculous to the extreme. He disregards all the people in the world, and only wants to be the emperor! Emperor Jianyan is old, and he has no choice but to inherit the throne in troubled times! It's a pity, He doesn't understand Emperor Jianyan's painstaking efforts!"

Zhao Ding looked around and saw guards everywhere in the Han Palace! Although these guards did not squint at them, they must be able to hear their words!

"Mr. Yang, let's talk about this matter outside!" Zhao Ding said.

"Humph! The little prince actually asked us to stay and watch him ascend the throne! Absurd! There is no two days in the sky, and there are no two masters in the country! Since Emperor Jianyan has already ascended the throne, he is the only emperor in the world! No matter what he has done before, he He is the only emperor! This prince is the real traitor! Treason! He deserves death! We don’t have to stay and watch the so-called absurd enthronement! We will leave Hanzhong today and tell Emperor Jianyan about Hanzhong! Let Emperor Jianyan treat the damned prince as a mortal enemy, and go all out to deal with the prince!" Yang Shi gritted his teeth.

"We can't leave Hanzhong yet!" Zhao Ding said.

"Why?" Yang Shi turned his head to look at Zhao Ding and asked angrily.

"I'll tell you when I'm outside!" Zhao Ding said.

"You bastard! Could it be that you have disobedience to Emperor Jianyan? If so, I will not tolerate you today!" Yang Shi looked at Zhao Ding and said viciously.

"How could this be? Since I have respected Emperor Jianyan as the king, how could I betray Emperor Jianyan? No matter how reasonable the prince's words are, I can't do anything to betray the emperor! There are guards of the prince everywhere here, Some words are really inconvenient for others to hear!" Zhao Ding looked around and said softly.

"Uh!" Yang Shi was stunned, and then nodded!

The two walked forward quickly, they passed through several palaces, and finally came to the outside of the Han Palace!

Arriving outside the Han Palace, Zhe Keqiu still sent many soldiers and attendants to entertain the two, and the two were taken towards the post house!

After arriving at the post house, Zhao Ding drove back all the servants. He looked around and confirmed that no one was listening, and then said: "Mr. Yang, listen to me slowly! It is really important for us to stay here. Something to do!"
