This letter was not sent by Emperor Qingping, but Zhao Yun'an. In the letter, Zhao Yun'an told Tan Zong that Emperor Qingping had died of illness a month ago, and the prince later died suddenly during the mourning period. According to the information provided by the informant, Zhao Yunzhao secretly conspired to murder Emperor Qingping and the prince.

After the prince's death, Zhao Yunzhao couldn't wait to jump out and took out a copy of the "decree" that was said to be left by the crown prince before his death, saying that Zhao Yunzhao's father, that is, the deposed crown prince in the previous dynasty, was the orthodox of Dashun, so he was willing to leave the throne to Zhao Yunzhao.

As soon as this "destiny" came out, it caused a stir in front of all civil and military officials in the capital, causing fierce debates among officials about whether Zhao Yunan's lineage was orthodox or whether Zhao Yunzhao's lineage was orthodox.

Just as the officials were discussing fiercely, General Anguo and Lu Yueguan, the father of the Crown Princess, led the imperial guards in Beidaying, the imperial guards in the capital city, and on the grounds of pursuing rebellion, suddenly launched a surprise attack on the imperial guards in Nandaying, led by General An of the capital city and Qin Chaohu, the father of Prince An. It was like the imperial guards in Nandaying who died and suffered heavy casualties. Under the leadership of the general of Emperor Ping of Qing, he fled from the capital city in a panic and fled to the imperial village of the capital.

At the same time, Zhao Yunzhao sent people to the An Prince's Mansion to capture Zhao Yun'an. Just as his men surrounded the An Prince's Mansion, several huge hot air balloons suddenly rose from the courtyard of the An Prince's Mansion, and took Zhao Yun'an and his family out of the capital and came to Zhao Yuzhao's imperial village.

With the cooperation of the imperial party members, Zhao Yunzhao quickly controlled the situation in the capital, and then ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and the country was named Yongping. Then he mobilized 80,000 Beidaying imperial guards and brought siege equipment to prepare to capture the imperial village of Jingji in one fell swoop.

But who would have thought that before the Beidaying Imperial Army approached the Gyeonggi Imperial Village, a dull sound came from the walls of the Gyeonggi Imperial Village. Then black shells fell like raindrops among the soldiers of the Beidaying Imperial Army, and the explosion caused the Beidaying Imperial Army to cry and shout for their parents, running away with their heads in their arms, and blood flowed into a river.

Because it was the first time I saw the power of the shells, the 80,000 imperial guards were defeated in an instant and fled like a tide.

The Gyeonggi Imperial Village had developed cannons at this time, and they happened to test the cannons with 80,000 imperial guards. As a result, the first stop was successful, which made Zhao Yunzhao's plan to attack the Gyeonggi Imperial Village fail.

Zhao Yunan then ascended the throne in the imperial village of Gyeonggi, and was named Yongchang, calling on the military and civilians of Dashun to unite against the pseudo-emperor Zhao Yunzhao who killed the monarch.

In order to build momentum for Zhao Yun'an, the imperial village of Jingji sent a hot air balloon, flew over the capital during the day, sprinkled leaflets into the city, revealing Zhao Yunzhao's conspiracy to poison Emperor Qingping and the prince, causing a sensation in the entire capital.

Not only that, the hot air balloons also flew to towns near the capital and threw the flyers, causing Zhao Yunzhao to be pushed to the forefront.

Zhao Yunzhao was both angry at this, but he had no choice but to do anything because he had no choice but to use the hot air balloons flying high in the sky.

Not only did the capital city cause Zhao Yunzhao to feel depressed, but the local reactions made him angry. The local responses responded less than one-fifth of the prefectures that he became the emperor. Jiangnan and Huguang, the richest and most powerful in Dashun, clearly expressed their support for Zhao Yunan as the new emperor, which allowed Zhao Yunan to gain support from two-fifths of the prefectures, and the remaining prefectures were in a wait-and-see attitude.

After Tan Zong summoned the generals of the Northern Frontier Frontier Defense Forces, he came up with an imperial edict from Emperor Ping of Qing. The imperial edict clearly stated that if the prince died within three years of taking over the emperor after Emperor Ping of Qing, he would make Zhao Yun'an the new emperor.

The generals of the border guards were following Tan Zongma's head at this time, and now they had the imperial edict of Emperor Ping of Qing, so they unanimously decided to support Zhao Yunan as the emperor.

Just as Tan Zong and the generals discussed sending troops south to attack the pseudo-emperor Zhao Yunzhao, the envoy who sent the order to send the order also arrived.

The imperial edict was issued in the name of Emperor Ping of Qing, appointing Tan Zong as the left minister of the Ministry of War and the mighty general, and asked him to go to Beijing to report his duties, and handed over the border guards in the northern border to a military general sent by him.

Tan Zong just sneered at this, which was obviously to lure him into the capital. So he asked someone to cut off the envoy who sent the order and the general who came to take over him. After arranging the affairs of the northern border, he personally led 300,000 northern border defense troops to the south under the banner of attacking the pseudo-emperor. Wherever the army passed, the prefectures surrendered.

After Zhao Yunzhao ascended the throne, he appointed Zhao Yunbo as a prince and a minister of the cabinet. He was very powerful, but Zhao Yunbo was not happy at all because they wanted to assassinate Emperor Qingping and murder the prince because they were forced to have no choice but to take the risk.

In the past five years, Emperor Ping of Qing not only increased his control over the Shangzhou Prefecture of Dashun, but also launched a vigorous encirclement and suppression of the merits and religions in various parts of Dashun, and eliminated many people from Zhao Yunbao's power.

If this continues, in a few years, Emperor Qingping will be able to follow the clues to find evidence that Zhao Yunzhao and Zhao Yunbo are the masterminds behind the meritorious religion, so they will be unable to turn things around, so they decided to take action in advance.

Just as Tan Zong killed the envoy who sent the order and the general who came to replace him, Zhao Yunbo looked at the sparrows playing on the branch of a big tree in the courtyard of the mansion, looking worried.

"Prince, the official family let you go to the palace to discuss matters." After a moment, Zhao Yunbo's princess came over and said to him with a smile.

Zhao Yunbo came to his senses, smiled slightly at the princess, walked towards the inner room, preparing to change to the government office and go to the palace to meet Zhao Yunzhao. The situation in Dashun has been extremely complicated recently. As the person Zhao Yunzhao trusts the most, he is very busy.

"Your Majesty, you seem to have something to worry about." The princess asked with a smile when changing Zhao Yunbo's official uniform.

"There are too many things now, which makes me a little too busy." Zhao Yunbo smiled disconcerted. He didn't want the princess to follow him and was heartbroken.

"Prince, Sister Yuzhao has been waiting for you for five years. Why did you think the last emperor wouldn't let them get married?" Zhao Yunbo changed his official uniform and was about to go out. The princess suddenly remembered something and asked suspiciously. Not only her, but many people in the capital were discussing this matter in private.

"Maybe Lord Tan is too busy in northern Xinjiang and can't get out of here." Zhao Yunbo frowned slightly and said with a pretended relaxation.

"Prince, no matter what, I will be with you." Looking at Zhao Yunbo's back as he was leaving, the princess' eyes couldn't help but show a look of sadness. She was naturally extremely smart to be Zhao Yunbo's princess. She knew that the most headache for Zhao Yunbo was actually Tan Zong.

Tan Zong is not only the leader of the most powerful "Tan Party" in Dashun, but also the commander of the 500,000 most elite border guards in the northern border. His every move will have a crucial impact on Dashun's political structure.

If Tan Zong led the border guards south, the capital would be in danger, because from the northern border to the capital, no city or level could stop the brave and warlike border guards.

In the palace, Zhao Yunzhao, wearing a dragon robe, was watching the information about the situation in various places, frowned, and the prefectures in Jiangnan and Huguang had begun to expand their troops to prepare for war, which showed that they were going to fight against themselves to the end.

"Your Majesty." Zhao Yunbo walked in and bowed to Zhao Yunzhao.

"Second, do you think the 'chess pieces' we arranged can be apart from Tan Zong?" Zhao Yunzhao put down the information in his hand, walked off the dragon throne, and asked in a deep voice. Tan Zong is now a big concern for him. As long as he is apart from Tan Zong, he can slowly eliminate those who are against him.

"Brother, don't worry, Tan Zong is not wary of him at all, he will definitely be able to abandon Tan Zong." Zhao Yunbo smiled slightly and comforted Zhao Yunzhao. This may be their last chance to get rid of Tan Zong.

"If I had known today, I would have killed this disaster at the autumn outing conference." Zhao Yunzhao couldn't help but slap the table hard and said gritting his teeth.

At the autumn outing conference six years ago, if Qiao Yu had not risked his life to save him, Tan Zong would have died under the command of the little marquis who liked Zhao Yuzhao. At that time, the one who had plotted against Tan Zong was a worshipper of the Gongde Sect. After disguising himself as a disguised, he mixed in the middle of the guards around him. It was Zhao Yunzhao who specially sent him to remove Tan Zong after learning that Tan Zong appeared in the enclosure, but unfortunately he failed.

"Your Majesty, news has been heard from Jiangnan." At this moment, a eunuch walked in with a sealed envelope, holding it in both hands and handed it to Zhao Yunzhao.

"A bunch of waste!" After reading the letter, Zhao Yunzhao couldn't help but become furious and tear the letter in half.

Seeing this, Zhao Yunbo picked up the letter, and after looking at it, his expression on his face was a little sad. He and Zhao Yunzhao sent all three worshippers of the Meritory Sect to Yangzhou. The three worshippers led the elites of the Meritory Sect to kidnap Tan Zong's sister and Shi Shi and others to threaten Tan Zong. However, they were defeated by Fu Shu, Qiao Yu and others. All three worshippers were killed in battle, which was a heavy casualty.

With the news that Tan Zong led the border guards south, the swaying prefectures in Dashun immediately expressed their support for Zhao Yun'an. In this way, Zhao Yun'an received almost 80% of the prefectures in Dashun and had an absolute advantage.

Zhao Yun'an immediately ordered that the prefectures loyal to him should attack those prefectures loyal to Zhao Yunzhao. Because the prefectures loyal to Zhao Yun'an were numerous and powerful, they quickly captured those prefectures loyal to Zhao Yunzhao.

When the army led by Tan Zong came to the capital, all the prefectures of Dashun had already surrendered to Zhao Yun'an. The prefects from all over the country sent people to send a memorial to Zhao Yun'an to express their sincerity, and Zhao Yunzhao could only hide in the capital.

Since there were not only many people in the capital, but also a large number of officials, Tan Zong did not attack, but instead asked the army to surround the capital, and he himself went to the imperial village of the capital to meet Zhao Yun'an.

On the eve of the imperial village in the capital, when Tan Zong was closing his eyes in his military tent, Luo Yi walked in.

Since being rescued by Tan Zong from Domuer five years ago, Luo Yi has followed Tan Zong and has become a general who commanded ten thousand people in the Northern Frontier Frontier Defense Forces. He can be said to be Tan Zong's capable subordinate.

"Brother Luo, it's so late, what's wrong with you?" Tan Zong felt a little strange about Luo Yi's arrival. He did not let Luo Yi come.

"General, I deserve to die for death!" After Luo Yi entered the door, he knelt on the ground with a pounce. "To be honest, I am the inside line arranged by the pseudo-Emperor in the northern border. The pseudo-Emperor asked the pseudo-Emperor to find an opportunity to kill the pseudo-Emperor. I admire the pseudo-Emperor, and I really can't take action. Moreover, the pseudo-Emperor is not an opponent of the pseudo-Emperor, and I dare not take action."

"It's good to figure it out now." Tan Zong walked forward, reached out and patted Luo Yi on the shoulder, and said with a smile. The fake emperor in Luo Yi's mouth naturally pointed to Zhao Yunzhao.

"Sir, the fake emperor tied up his parents, and the fake emperor had to be the informant of the fake emperor. But don't worry, the things passed on to the fake emperor are all irrelevant information, and there is absolutely no disrespect to the adults." Luo Yi touched the ground with his head, "please punish him."

"You are the brother who shares life and death with me, and you haven't done anything to be sorry for me, so why is it a crime?" Tan Zong smiled slightly and helped Luo Yi up. As the saying goes, a prodigal son will not change his gold. He can understand Luo Yi's difficulties.

"Mr. Xie." Luo Yi kowtowed three times at Tan Zong, his eyes a little rosy. He did not expect that Tan Zong would forgive him so generously.

In order to save Luo Yi's family, Tan Zong and Luo Yi performed a play and arranged a fake assassination. Tan Zong pretended to be stabbed in his arm, and Luo Yi blamed him for "killing" with a knife. The body was dragged out by Tan Zong's personal guards, leaving a long blood mark in the military camp, which many people witnessed with their own eyes.

The news of Luo Yi's failure to assassinate Tan Zong quickly reached Zhao Yunzhao's ears. Zhao Yunzhao was so angry that he smashed the teacup in his hand. If Luo Yi killed Tan Zong, then the border guards, Jiangnan and Huguang people would be without leaders, and then he would have a chance.

Tan Zong went to the imperial village of Jingji with his wounds and kowtowed to Zhao Yun'an. Zhao Yun'an still called him "Dream Flower" as usual, and had no emperor's airs at all.

Since receiving the help of Tan Zong, the technology of Gyeonggi Imperial Village has been changing with each passing day. Not only has the steam engine been developed, but the telegraph engine has also been successfully developed, which surprised Tan Zong.

After seeing Zhao Yuzhao who had been waiting for him for five years, Tan Zong couldn't help but feel very apologized in his heart. He used her in his arms in front of everyone. Other women were already the mother of the child by this age, and Zhao Yuzhao, as the dignified Princess Dashun, had not yet gotten married.

Not only Zhao Yuzhao, but also Su Jin, Shi Shi and others, Tan Zong has decided that when Zhao Yunzhao's affairs have subsided, he will marry all the girls and have a lot of children to enjoy the joy of family.

Although the situation was hopeless, Zhao Yunzhao resisted stubbornly and refused to surrender. However, under the current situation, the mentality of the soldiers in the city changed tremendously. So when Tan Zong was still in the imperial village of the capital, the Beidaying army guarding the city mutiny occurred, killing their generals, opening the city gate to welcome the border guards into the city, and the border guards seized the capital without bloodshed.

After learning about the mutiny of the defenders, Zhao Yunzhao sighed deeply, then put on his dragon robe, sat on the dragon chaise in the Golden Palace and died of drinking poisonous wine.

Zhao Yunbo sent his family to Sanqiao's mansion. After bowing to Sanqiao, he left without saying anything and hung it in the palace with three-foot white silk. He knew that he would die, so he left a way out for his family. When Zhao Yunzhao became the emperor, he protected Sanqiao, who had a close relationship with Tan Zong.

Sure enough, as Zhao Yunbo thought, if there was someone else in Dashun who could save his family, then Tan Zong would have to do so. Later, under Tan Zong's pleading, Zhao Yunbo's family was not killed by the whole family like Zhao Yunzhao's family, but was fed to the northern border. Perhaps this was their best way out.

When he saw Sanqiao, who had grown into a graceful girl, looked at him with a hot look, Tan Zong knew that he seemed to have another love debt to repay, so he decided to marry Sanqiao too.

After Zhao Yunzhao's death, Zhao Yunan entered the capital with the greeting of civil and military officials in the capital and sat on the dragon throne representing the Nine Five Lords in the Golden Palace. His mood was extremely complicated. Seven years ago, he was still a free and lazy prince. No matter what, he never thought that he would one day become the master of Dashun.

For those officials who defected to Zhao Yunzhao, Zhao Yun'an made a fuss and did not kill them, but instead immigrated to the northern border to show his kindness.

As for those who have made meritorious people, Zhao Yunan naturally rewarded them according to their merits. Of course, Tan Zong was the one who made great contributions. What Tan Zong and the civil and military officials in the court did not expect was that Zhao Yunan actually broke the rule of "foreign surnames are not allowed to be named kings" in his ancestors and named Tan Zong the "King of Yi". The dignified Prince Dashun made Tan Zong flattered and quickly refused.

However, Zhao Yunan had made up his mind, so Tan Zong had to accept the reward and became the first prince of the different surname in Dashun in hundreds of years.

After receiving the reward, Tan Zong began to prepare for his marriage. Since the one he wanted to take was Zhao Yuzhao, the wedding was settled in the capital, and Zhao Yunan would personally take charge of the marriage for him.

Perhaps it was because she felt that she owed too many women who were waiting for her. Tan Zong gritted her teeth and married all the confidants who had not yet gotten married and had to wait for her. Needless to say, Zhao Yuzhao, Su Jin, Shi Shi, Ilnasha, Ailian, and San Qiao, Lianer and other daughters. Anyway, Tan Zong is talented and strong, and is enough to deal with these beautiful wives.

Because he married many wives in one go, Tan Zong, who originally wanted to have a happy bridal chamber, slept sadly in the study on the wedding night. Both Zhao Yuzhao and Su Jin brought Tan Zong out of the new house and asked him to go to another wife's place.

Even Shi Shi, who Tan Zong thought the most obedient, pushed him out shyly. No one wanted to be a wedding chamber with Tan Zong tonight, which would arouse jealousy from others.

After his newlyweds, Tan Zong resigned from Zhao Yunan as commander of the Northern Frontier Defense Army and inspector of the Supervision Office, and took his wives to Yangzhou and started a business. He knew that he was now very successful and that in order to continue his friendship with Zhao Yunan, it is wisest to withdraw from the officialdom now.

After repeated attempts to keep him, Zhao Yunan had to agree to Tan Zong's request to resign and build a magnificent "Yiwang Mansion" for Tan Zong in Yangzhou City.

Although Tan Zong resigned from his official position, he was still the person Zhao Yunan relied most, and the leader of the "Tan Party" in the court. He was also Zhao Yunan's only friend. He assisted Zhao Yunan in realizing Dashun's revival and opened up sea transportation. Those sea ships equipped with engines and propellers sailed on the rippling sea, spreading Dashun's civilization to all parts of the world.
