Zhao Junhan's troops arrived in Jiangzhou that night.
The governor of Jiangzhou opened the city gate in advance to greet him.
Jiangzhou is the state capital closest to the capital.
It is not a big or small town, but it also occupies an important position.
The previous dynasty was destroyed by conquering Jiangzhou first and then directly leading to the capital. .
According to the rules, Zhao Junhan can only stay in Jiangzhou for one night.
He must reach Northern Xinjiang as quickly as possible, but now he obviously has no such plan.
The governor of Jiangzhou was a good person.
Not only did he greet the guests with good wine and food, but he also presented several beauties during the banquet.
"Your Highness has a long journey and is tired all the way.
I specially invited the best dancers in Jiangzhou to entertain His Highness."
Zhao Junhan sat on a high seat, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and said with a half-smile: "Let's take a look."
The governor of Jiangzhou clapped his hands, and several women in thin clothes and bold clothes came in.
Zhao Junhan looked at Wu Ji with a smile on his face.
If you look carefully, you can see that the temperature under his eyes is as cold as ice.
The governor of Jiangzhou has entertained hundreds if not dozens of officials.
His official position cannot be said to be too high, but he is comfortable and can make a lot of money.
After the dance, the governor hinted: "I wonder if your highness thinks that the dancing skills of the one among them are more extraordinary."
Isn't this just asking who should be kept in the accounting room tonight?
Zhao Junhan looked sideways and looked at him lightly, with a smile in his eyes and he looked very talkative, "Let them go down first.
I still have something to talk to the governor."
The governor was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand to make these idle people retreat, "Your Highness, please speak."
Zhao Junhan said loudly: "Lin is coming in."
Lin Shi was his deputy this time.
Lin Shi heard the order and pushed open the door.
Behind him were dozens of soldiers wearing sword hilts.
The governor smiled ugly, "What are you going to do, Your Highness?"
Zhao Junhan stood up and stopped smiling, "The governor is so smart, how could he not guess what I am going to do?"
The governor took a few steps back and glanced out the door.
The sight almost scared him to the point of pissing his pants.
All the people outside the door were elite soldiers.
This governor is not stupid.
The emperor demoted this extremely important prince.
It is self-evident.
People want to rebel He shook his hands and pointed at him, "You, you, you are committing a capital crime of treason."
Zhao Junhan chuckled, "It seems that your Excellency has guessed it."
He lowered his eyes coldly and ordered Lin Shi, "Kill him."
Lin was expressionless, "Yes."
The tip of the sword scratched across the ground, and the sound was so cautious in the quiet night that the governor had no choice but to retreat.
He knelt down and begged, "Your Highness, please spare this official's life.
This official must keep his mouth shut."
Of course Zhao Junhan would not believe what he said, a dead person would make him feel more relieved.
The sharp sword pierced his heart, and there was no sound immediately.
The bright red blood soaked his clothes and overflowed little by little.
Soon someone said that the body was dragged out.

Zhao Junhan said to Lin Shi: "You can take Jiangzhou's soldiers and horses to Northern Xinjiang.
You can march at a slower pace.
You can return in about three days."
"Take care, Your Highness."
Zhao Junhan put his hands behind his back, veins popped up on his forehead, he was also nervous, success or failure depended on this.
He was guarding Jiangzhou, and now he had to watch Concubine Zhao.
He just wanted to kill her by surprise.
Emperor Yuan has been suffering from wind and cold these days.
This is an opportunity.
Wind chills can also make people seriously ill and even fatal.
In Ningfu Palace, Concubine Zhao couldn't fall asleep tossing and turning.
She got up and asked someone to light a candle, lifted the quilt, sat on the edge of the bed, and opened her mouth to call Biqing to come in.
"What time is it" Biqing replied: "Mother, it's already Chen time."
Concubine Zhao rubbed her sore eyebrows and asked, "Have you accomplished what I asked you to do?"
Bi Qing closed the door and said, "I have followed your Majesty's instructions.
Everything has been taken care of at the Imperial Hospital.
The news that the Emperor is seriously ill will never be leaked."
Concubine Zhao nodded, her face looked a little better, at least it was no longer as pale as before, "That's good, this matter must not be exposed."
Biqing squeezed her shoulders and asked boldly: "Actually, why do you need to take such risks?
Now that you are the most favored by the emperor, there is really no need to do it for His Highness Prince Zhao."
Concubine Zhao interrupted her and sneered: "I have no choice but to rely on the emperor's favor.
It is never reliable.
Zhao Junhan was demoted.
If I don't do something, there will be nothing."
Emperor Yuan was too impatient, and it was so obvious that he wanted to elevate Zhao Shizong to a high position.
It would be too late if she didn't make some plans for herself.
Zhao Junhan is also a ruthless character, and it was not in vain that he promoted him in the first place.
He was right, for the current plan, the only way is to rebel.
She never cared about futile things like infamy, and Zhao Junhan probably wouldn't care either.
"I and the Queen are living and dying.
I am determined not to die.
Fetch water.
I need to wash up."
Biqing agreed.
After Concubine Zhao finished washing herself, she put on light makeup and went to Emperor Yuan's Chang'an Palace.
Emperor Yuan was ill in bed.
The disease was coming with force and there was no sign at all.
He only felt that his whole body was weak and his mind was not very clear.
Concubine Zhao dismissed the eunuch who was guarding outside the house in a few seconds, and walked in affectionately with a bowl of medicine, the worry in her eyebrows and eyes looked very similar.
"Your Majesty, the medicine prepared by the imperial hospital has been delivered to you.
Please drink it, I am your concubine."
Emperor Yuan's turbid eyes met hers, hesitating and unable to speak completely.
He reached out his hand, wanting to touch this delicate and endearing face.
He had also favored this woman for several years.
He wanted to get up, but Concubine Zhao saw his intention, put the medicine on the table, helped him get up, and used pillows to cushion his back.

"Bring it to me."
Emperor Yuan was already very weak when he spoke.
Concubine Zhao smiled and said, "I'd better feed you, my concubine."
Emperor Yuan couldn't say no to her face, so he let her feed the medicine into his mouth one spoon at a time.
After taking the medicine, Emperor Yuan's mind became even more confused, but the tight feeling in his chest was much better.
Concubine Zhao's smile was full of meaning.
Looking at his eyelids that were about to droop, she felt relieved.
This medicine was given to her by Song Duan.
It kills people invisible and only erodes people's bodies little by little.
Concubine Zhao looked at Emperor Yuan who was already sleeping deeply, brushed her sleeves and left the palace.
As soon as she walked away, the man on the bed opened his eyes again, called the eunuch guarding the door, and said feebly: "Pass on Song Duan."
Panting, he got up and leaned on the bed, sweating on his head.
He was afraid he didn't have much time left.
Song Duan came very quickly.
Perhaps he knew why Emperor Yuan summoned him, so he came so quickly.
When Song Duan saw Emperor Yuan's pale face, he raised his eyebrows.
Concubine Zhao was quick and ruthless enough to do this without saying a word in just a few days.
Emperor Yuan waved to him, "Come closer."
Song Duan took two steps forward, bowed slightly, and said, "If your Majesty has anything to do, just ask him."
Emperor Yuan stared at him.
Now the only one he could trust was the eunuch he had trained.
He moved his lips and said, "Go, here is the paper and pen."
Song Duan paused for a long time before moving the pen and paper on the desk in front of him.
Emperor Yuan was holding the pen, but his hands were trembling and he couldn't write well.
He put the pen into Song Duan's hand in anger and said, "You write."
"The legitimate son Shizong has an honest character, a talent for governing the country, and a beautiful natural talent.
Zi abides by the emperor's orders and is named the Prince of the East Palace."
Song Duan was not even surprised and wrote the imperial edict smoothly.
Emperor Yuan looked at him and said seriously: "Tomorrow morning, you can read out the imperial edict in front of all the civil and military officials."
Song Duan put the imperial edict behind him, lowered his eyes and accepted the order, "Yes."
Emperor Yuan coughed twice, and his internal organs were about to come out.
He covered his mouth and said, "Draft another imperial edict."
Song Duan raised his eyes, unable to guess what he was going to do.
After coming out of Chang'an Palace, Song Duan asked Liu Jin to go to Ningfu Palace to invite Concubine Zhao over.
Song Duan stood under the eaves, the distant sky gradually brightened, and the golden sunlight filled the ground, looking full of vitality.
Chang'an Palace had been surrounded by the imperial guards and eunuchs from Xichang when Emperor Yuan fell ill two days ago.
Outsiders could not see the situation inside.
Concubine Zhao did not even have a maid behind her.
Song Duan never liked Concubine Zhao.
He just used her to antagonize the Queen, but he didn't expect that she could have another role now.
Song Duan was playing with the imperial edict just now, as if he didn't care about it at all.
"Lord Governor, please ask me to come over quickly and tell you directly."
Song Duan raised his lips and smiled, throwing the edict in her hand into her hand, "Your Majesty, read it yourself."
Concubine Zhao opened the letter suspiciously, glanced at it briefly, squeezed it with both hands, and her expression changed drastically.
Song Duan withdrew the edict at the right time and said casually: "Your Majesty, you can see clearly."

Concubine Zhao said with gritted teeth, "See clearly."
Song Duan rolled up the edict well and patted her face with the top of it, "Then the empress should know what she should do now."
"It's all taken care of from top to bottom, please feel free to do it, Madam."
After Song Duan finished speaking, he walked away.
Concubine Zhao is so smart, of course she knows what to do next.
She smiled to herself and looked into the palace with cold eyes.
Then she couldn't be blamed for being cruel.
She walked slowly in, quietly, without disturbing anyone.
Emperor Yuan lay on the bed with his eyes open, his eyes turned in her direction, he opened his mouth, but could not say a word.
Seeing this, Concubine Zhao smiled in a good mood, took out something like a pill from her sleeve, and approached him step by step.
Emperor Yuan's eyes suddenly widened, and the corners of his lips twitched, "You" Concubine Zhao's voice was still very soft.
She said, "Your Majesty, it's time to take medicine.
This disease will not be cured without medicine."
Concubine Zhao's expression was so strange that Emperor Yuan also sensed something was wrong.
She pursed her lips tightly and was unwilling to speak.
He struggled on the bed, trying to make some noise to alert the people outside the room.
She seemed to have seen his intention.
The smile on her lips deepened.
She stepped forward, sat on the edge of the bed, pinched his chin with her slender fingers, and fed the pill in her hand.
Emperor Yuan immediately vomited it out, gritted his teeth, looked at the person in front of him, and said: "Bitch" He loves her so much, how could she do this?
Concubine Zhao took her time and glanced at the ground.
The man on the bed had no strength left.
Years of indulgence and the medicine she had taken in the past few days had completely destroyed his body.
With a fierce look in her eyes, she reached out and pinched his neck without any fear.
The strength in her hand became deeper and deeper.
Her sharp phoenix eyes stared at his dead white face.
His hands were struggling in the air, and his eyes turned white. , gradually, he lost strength, and he closed his eyes completely in an old state, never to wake up again.
Concubine Zhao tentatively let go of her hand and probed his nose with her fingers.
She fell to the ground, crying and laughing.
After a while, she got up from the ground, wiped away her tears, straightened her back and looked out from inside.
Out.
The first thing she did when she returned was to notify Zhao Junhan, who was still in Jiangzhou.
This game is just the first step.
Song Duan on the other side was not idle either.
He invited Qu Yuan to the palace from home, and it was time to settle the feud and resentment they had had for half their lives.
Song Duan raised his head, revealing his slender neck.
There was no emotion on his fair and handsome face.
He closed his eyes gently, and the gentle wind blew over his face.
It was so gentle that he could even remember that he was pulled into the clean room.
The fear in his heart, his almost shrill screams, his crazy struggles, it seemed like he shed a few cheap tears back then.
But at that time, Qu Yuan showed no mercy at all.
He looked at him coldly and ordered people to tie him up.
After castration, he was sent to the palace without stopping.
His writing hands became the hands of a servant and were no longer valuable.
How could he not hate him and not want revenge?

In fact, killing Qu Yuan was something he could do a long time ago, but it would be meaningless after doing that.
He had been tortured for so many years, how could he let Qu Yuan die so easily?
He wanted Qu Yuan to watch him lose everything, not only Qu Yuan, but also everyone related to the Qu family.
He didn't want to let go.
The law still includes the punishment of being sentenced to death, so he can't express his anger anymore.
Qu Yuan is old, and he is still obviously old.
When he entered Wenyuan Palace, he was a little hunched, with white hair growing on his temples, and even his eyes were not as clear as before.
Song Duan stirred the fire in the charcoal basin and said, "Master Qu, this governor will really give you a huge surprise today."
Qu Yuan didn't know what he was trying to do.
He asked: "Song Duan, what on earth are you going to do?
Why bother beating around the bush with me?
You eunuch, I will get rid of you sooner or later."
Song Duan laughed softly, "Ah, the governor is quite curious.
Is there any way Master Qu can get rid of me?
You must know that you are a flat-headed boss now, and I am a third-grade official."
"Don't be proud."
Song Duan remembered that he had something serious to say, but he couldn't covet the pleasure of the moment.
He raised the edict on the desk in front of him, "This is the emperor's edict to appoint the prince.
I will not choose the prince."
It’s your grandson Zhao Shizong who you miss so much.”
He paused for a moment and continued: "I will read it to you once.
I am the legitimate son of Shi Zong.
He has an honest character and a talent for governing the country.
He has a beautiful natural talent.
Zi will abide by the emperor's orders and be named the Prince of the East Palace."
Qu Yuan calmed down and suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, but before he could be proud for a long time, he saw Song Duan throw the imperial edict in his hand into the charcoal fire at hand and burn it clean.
Qu Yuan immediately rushed up, lost his composure, endured the burning of the charcoal fire, and picked up the burned and broken imperial edict, "You really don't want your life."
Song Duan kicked him in the chest and knocked him to the ground.
Song Duan looked down at the people on the ground, raised his lips and smiled, then squatted down and suddenly took out the edict from his arms, and threw it into the charcoal fire again.
Qu Yuan's eyes turned red and he couldn't move.
Before he could say anything, Song Duan spoke first, "What are you in a hurry?
There is a second edict, Prince Zhao of the Third Son, ah, you have just heard the following words."
Qu Yuan was in disbelief, staring at him, his voice trembling, "How dare you tamper with the imperial edict."
Song Duan nodded indifferently, "Well, yes, I have changed my mind.
I will tell you what you can do.
If Concubine Zhao is cruel enough, the emperor will be dead by now.
Who knows except this governor?
Which one is true or false?”
Song Duan stood up and continued to tell him kindly, "You don't have to worry about whether King Zhao can come back.
He didn't go to the border at all.
You are just stupid."
Qu Yuan was speechless.
Song Duan kept chattering, "By the way, the son-in-law you are extremely satisfied with, Chen Yanyan, the number one scholar, is also the spy of King Zhao.
In the past few months, the emperor almost uprooted your foundation.
That list was provided by your son-in-law.

"As for your beloved daughter, you should know what will happen to her after the new emperor ascends the throne."
Being divorced and reduced to a slave, if Chen Yan had a kind heart, her situation would have been a little better.
The mistress who was not favored would not be able to hold her head up for the rest of her life.
It's a pity that Chen Yanyan has never been a kind-hearted person.
Even if he wants to avoid harming her through their relationship as husband and wife for a few months, he will not go out of his way to protect her.
Qu Shang was unprotected, and Song Duan was about to take action.
Still the kind that shows no mercy.
Song Duan waved, and Liu Jin, who was guarding the door, came in.
He said to Liu Jin: "Watch Master Qu carefully, and then send someone to invite the Queen and the Queen over."
Zhao Shizong was a good boy who valued affection and righteousness, and his grandparents and biological mother would never ignore him.
As long as he enters the palace, he will not be able to escape the charge of treason.
Tsk tsk, this series of good schemes were not thought up by him, they were all thought up by Zhao Junhan.
He said a long time ago that he didn't like Zhao Junhan, but he hated the Qu family even more.
Song Duan took out another imperial edict from the drawer, smiled horribly, and handed it to Liu Jin, "Go and bring this to Concubine Zhao."
He also didn't expect that the emperor really liked Concubine Zhao.
Before he knew he was about to die, he left a way out for her.
Emperor Yuan's second edict was to grant Concubine Zhao the title of concubine after his death.
The new emperor must treat her as his biological mother.
If anything happens to Concubine Zhao, the previous edict will be invalid.
Tsk tsk, a cold-blooded person still has a conscience.
