Zhao Chenhan's wedding started with great fanfare.
After all, it was a marriage between two military leaders of the current dynasty, and the entire Shengjing Prefecture was in a state of excitement.
Even Zhao Lin sent someone to deliver a gift.
Not to mention the civil and military ministers and local officials.
The carriages that came to deliver gifts actually blocked the road in front of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.
The Shengjing Prefecture had to send yamen runners to maintain order.
Even the city defense troops were dispatched.
When Emperor Chengping heard the news, he smiled grimly.
Although he didn't want to be in charge, he would not tolerate others coveting the throne.
Especially if they want to mutiny, it is even more intolerable.
"Good! Good! Two generals I trusted betrayed me together!"
Emperor Chengping was so angry that he vomited blood.
I really vomited blood.
His health was already poor, and now he was repeatedly angered, which shortened his life.
"I want them all dead!" Emperor Chengping growled.
Zhu Zhongyan quickly said, "I have already made all the arrangements. If they dare to come, none of them will survive."
"Good! It turns out that you are the most loyal." Emperor Chengping said with relief.
"And Zhao Lin. He was the one who provided this information, and he was also the one who helped me bring people to the capital." Zhu Zhongyan spoke for Zhao Lin.
Zhu Zhongyan's plan was for him to control the palace and Zhao Lin to control the court. They colluded internally and externally, and the entire Daqi was in their hands.
Zhu Zhongyan is two years older than Emperor Chengping and is also over sixty. He doesn't have many years left to live, but Zhao Lin is still young. As long as he becomes a powerful official, he can control the court for decades.
In this way, after Zhu Zhongyan's death, Zhao Lin could also treat his trusted subordinates well.
As a boss, you must consider your subordinates, only then will others follow you.
Emperor Chengping nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Zhao Lin is also a loyal minister. It is the right thing for me to let him join the cabinet."
After a pause, Emperor Chengping angrily said, "Li Chengqian and Shao Yutang, these two traitors, I trusted them so much and made them prime ministers, yet they dared to betray me. I will execute their entire clans!"
One of these two people supported the Crown Prince, and the other supported Prince Yu. They knew that Prince Yu was planning to rebel and kill the king, but no one reminded him. No wonder Emperor Chengping was angry.
Zhu Zhongyan advised: "After this is over, Your Majesty can kill whomever you want, but the most important thing is to protect Your Majesty's health and not let the traitor succeed."
"Yes, I want to live and see them die with my own eyes." Emperor Chengping said.
For the safety of Emperor Chengping, Zhu Zhongyan replaced all the people serving Emperor Chengping with his own people.
Zhao Lin stood on the attic of the Fu Mansion, looking at the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion in the distance.
"It's so lively." Fu Liqing said behind Zhao Lin.
Zhao Lin smiled softly: "Flowers are in full bloom, and oil is boiling in a blazing fire. It's nothing more than that."
Seeing that Zhao Lin was unaffected, Fu Liqing finally felt relieved. Carefully protecting his stomach with one hand, he said, "New Year's Eve...are you really okay?"
Zhao Lin said, "Don't worry, His Majesty has been informed of this matter. These traitors will not succeed."
"You must protect yourselves." Fu Liqing was still worried.
"Zhao Lin, the people are here." Su Di came over excitedly.
Zhao Lin's eyes lit up: "Well, you are indeed Brother Su."
Su Di glanced at Fu Liqing proudly.
This was done by Fu Liqing, but it was Su Di who caught the man, so she should be proud of it.
Fu Liqing smiled and said, "Lord Su always does things properly."
But Fu Liqing was already determined in his heart.
This Sudi must be a homosexual, he even regards himself as a love rival.
We have to find a way to get him away.
If it were a woman, it would be fine.
No one can stand a man always thinking about his husband.
Zhao Lin and his friends soon met Zhao Chenhan's biological parents.
"Du Luming, Shi Qinghe, I didn't expect that you are actually Beidi people." Zhao Lin sneered.
Although Du Luming is middle-aged, he has been well maintained and looks to be in his early thirties. He looks delicate and frail, especially with tears in his eyes, which makes me feel pity for him.
Shi Qinghe said in horror: "Who are you? Why are you arresting us? If you want silver, I can give it to you, but please don't kill us."
Sudi snorted coldly: "This is Daqi."
Shi Qinghe and the other man's expressions suddenly changed.
Su Di continued, "This is the residence of the Minister of Rites, and not far away is the residence of the Marquis of Zhenbei."
The two of them changed color again.
Sudi said again, "At this time, your biological son Zhao Chenhan is getting married. My master couldn't bear to see you, as his biological parents, unable to participate in his son's important event, so he specially invited you to attend."
"No, you're wrong. We don't know them." Shi Qinghe said hurriedly.
Sudi said impatiently, "Stop talking nonsense. Since I've captured you, I naturally know your identities. It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. I will punish you with my punishment."
Both of them turned pale with fear.
At this time, I can only grit my teeth and deny it.
Zhao Lin said slowly, "Two Northern Di people came here pretending to be from Daqi, and even seduced the daughter of a duke and a general. They even faked their own death and entrusted their orphan to him. Their intentions are not small."
"What are you going to do?" Du Luming said tremblingly.
"Send him to the imperial prison." Zhao Lin said simply.
Under torture, no one could hide the truth, even though these two men had been spies for the Northern Di and had received rigorous training.
Soon, a detailed confession was placed before Emperor Chengping.
"Two men were ordered to come to Daqi as spies. One seduced Han Yuehua, the daughter of Duke Ying, and the other seduced Zhao Jingzhou, who wasn't even a general yet. However, Duke Ying forced Han Yuehua and Shi Qinghe to separate and betroth Han Yuehua to Zhao Jingzhou. Zhao Jingzhou, of low status, didn't dare disobey Duke Ying, but he also wanted to climb the social ladder, so he had no choice but to kick Du Luming out and marry Han Yuehua. From then on, although the two treated each other with respect, they were not in harmony. Du Luming and Shi Qinghe pretended to be a married couple and hid, waiting for an opportunity to strike."
