Wei and Jin cooks

Chapter 856: If the skin is gone, how will the hair be attached?

Zhao Zhongyu lived very close to Emperor Jin, so when the poisoned wine was delivered, he was in Emperor Jin's room and was giving him lessons.

A general led a group of soldiers. The soldiers held a tray with only a cup and a wine bottle on it.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Zhao Zhongyu and Emperor Jin tightened their hearts at the same time. Liu Cong had just killed Liu He. It was just when he was satisfied that he would not have another big banquet and torture Emperor Jin at the banquet, right?

Zhao Zhongyu's face darkened, and he stood up and stood in front of Emperor Jin. Emperor Jin was ashamed and his body was shaking slightly.

When the footsteps got closer and closer, the general and his men turned around the corridor and walked towards them. Zhao Zhongyu saw the tray they were carrying at a glance.

Zhao Zhongyu was stunned for a moment, and his heart kept sinking.

He stepped aside to see Emperor Jin.

Only now did Emperor Jin see the tray that the general was carrying behind him. His face changed and he turned pale instantly. He looked at Zhao Zhongyu helplessly.

Zhao Zhongyu lowered his eyes and said nothing.

He had been protecting Emperor Jin to prevent him from being humiliated by the Huns. He was their emperor. He served the Huns with wine and tea, swept the floor and wiped tables, and dressed as a servant. It was not only Emperor Jin who was insulted, but also the Huns. There are these Jin ministers and the entire Jin Kingdom.

If Emperor Jin was a slave of the Huns, then what was the Kingdom of Jin? What are these ministers?

At this time, it seemed that all the pain could end, although it ended in a form that he was least willing to accept.

Zhao Zhongyu waited for them to approach.

The general did not expect that Zhao Zhongyu was here, and he couldn't help but feel happy, "I didn't expect that Zhao Shangshu was also here, but it saves me an extra trip."

He looked around, then simply took a large tea bowl from the low table in front of them and placed it next to the small wine glass on the tray, and then looked at Zhao Zhongyu with a half-smile.

He has long been tired of this old guy.

Every time he came to declare Emperor Jin, he would always obstruct him, and he would always lead the group of Jin ministers to cry loudly, and even colluded with the Han ministers on their side to point at their noses and scold them.

Huh, if some of them weren't really talented, they should all be cut off just because they were born Han Chinese.

There is a saying among the Han people that people who are not from our race must have different hearts. The hearts of the Han people are not with them.

General Shen picked up the jug and poured a little wine into the cup, which was only up to the rim of the cup. Then he poured more than half of the tea bowl. If the poisonous wine was not limited and not enough brewed, he would have really wanted to pour a big bowl for him. .

The general put the wine pot aside casually, raised his chin and said to the two of them: "Emperor Jin, Minister Zhao, this is the wine our general has given you, please drink it."

When Emperor Jin saw that Zhao Zhongyu was being given wine, his knees became weak and he fell down on the table.

The general glanced at him with disdain, and waved his hand to let the soldiers come forward to talk to him.

Zhao Zhongyu stepped forward to block it and said sternly: "How can you offend the emperor?"

The soldier was stopped and turned to look at the general.

The general was furious and stepped forward and said: "Zhao Zhongyu, you can't even protect yourself, how can you still care about the life and death of others?"

Zhao Zhongyu only glanced at him, did not speak to him, stepped forward, picked up the wine glass and walked towards the emperor.

The emperor fell down on the table and looked up at him blankly.

Zhao Zhongyu knelt in front of him and raised the wine glass to him, "Your Majesty, this is the end of the matter. I will give you another ride."

Hearing this, the emperor burst into tears and held his hand holding the wine glass. He said with pain and regret, "I wish I had not listened to the minister earlier. If I had died early, I wouldn't have had to suffer so many insults in vain."

Zhao Zhongyu took two steps on his knees, held his arm tightly with one hand and said, "It's not too late now."

The emperor reluctantly held back his tears and looked at him with tearful eyes, "Is it really not too late?"

Zhao Zhongyu nodded fiercely.

The emperor looked at the poisonous wine in his hand and swallowed, then went to take the wine with shaking hands.

The wine glass trembled in his hand, and the generals and soldiers behind him laughed contemptuously.

Zhao Zhongyu did not let go of his hand, holding the wine glass firmly and bringing the wine to his mouth. The emperor shook his hands and tipped the wine glass, raised his neck and took a sip...

He looked at Zhao Zhongyu with tears in his eyes and swallowed with a gulp.

When Zhao Zhongyu saw him drinking, he smashed the wine glass, then immediately stood up, picked up the tea bowl on the tray, and drank it all in one gulp in front of everyone.

He smashed the bowl, laughed loudly, and said cheerfully: "From now on, our officers and soldiers of the Jin Dynasty have no weaknesses, so we can ignore them!"

He drank a lot of poisonous wine and had a seizure quickly. Without saying a word, large mouthfuls of black blood spat out from his mouth, and he fell down in front of the emperor with a thud.

Emperor Jin held him in his arms with trembling hands. Thinking of how they, the emperor and his ministers, had depended on each other all these years, he felt sad and couldn't help but shed tears.

He felt the cramping in his abdomen again, and for a moment his grief turned into resentment. He looked up at the general and said, "Just wait, Zhao Hanzhang will not let you go, and he will definitely not let you go!"

The general looked at Zhao Zhongyu who was vomiting blood and was a little timid, but he still said fiercely: "Then you must die first before she comes!"

"This is the Xiongnu. Our general is wise and powerful. Even Zhao Hanzhang has to walk backwards when he sees our general!"

The emperor was furious and felt pain all over his body. He vomited blood.

Zhao Zhongyu was speechless. He held his hand and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to argue with them. The Jin Kingdom has established a new crown prince, and Hanzhang is here. The Jin Dynasty will never be destroyed. They Xiongnu will always be rebellious officials and traitors."

The emperor thought so, and death was not as scary as he imagined. With just one sentence, the emperor suddenly adapted to the pain and accepted his own death.

After death, he is no longer the king of subjugation.

The emperor hugged Zhao Zhongyu and slowly closed his eyes. The moment his hand dropped, the corners of Zhao Zhongyu's mouth curled up slightly and he also closed his eyes.

Jin Chen, who rushed over after hearing the commotion, saw the two of them exasperated, and immediately cried loudly, "Your Majesty——"

An Yuan suddenly burst into tears.

General Shen had tolerated them for a long time, and when he cried like this, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he drew his sword and killed the crying person.

When Liu Cong found out that most of the Jin officials in An Yuan had been killed, he had someone stop the general, but he didn't punish him severely. He just asked the general to think about his mistakes behind closed doors.

These Jin ministers who were crying so much obviously missed the Jin State. Anyway, the Jin Emperor had killed them all, so even if they surrendered to the Huns, they were not sincere, so just kill them.

Liu Cong didn't take this matter very seriously, but he didn't know that this incident was recorded by the surviving Jin ministers and the small note was passed back to the Central Plains.

After receiving this information, the nobles in the Central Plains were greatly mourned. In anger and grief, they joined the Zhao family army one after another. At this time, all the reservations of the nobles were disregarded.

"If the skin is gone, how can the hair be attached?" If survival is not guaranteed, do you still have the energy to care about the nobles' self-esteem with Zhao Hanzhang?

Therefore, she should reduce the preferential treatment to the nobles. At this time, the most important thing is to expel foreign enemies.
