In the outer hall of Yanfu Palace, the imperial doctor who had just come out of the inner hall to diagnose the pulse of the Empress Dowager Du reported to Zhao Kuangyinyu: "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager originally only felt a cold occasionally, but unfortunately she has been worried and depressed recently, so this disease is menacing. Weichen has already come to the prescription, let people decoction on time to take it. External diseases are easy to treat, but heart diseases are difficult to solve. Although the Queen Mother has been properly maintained, if she can't be adjusted in time, I'm afraid it will leave the root of the disease!"

"I know. You go down!" Zhao Kuangyin said with a wave of his hand.

Zhao Kuangyin, whose mother's heart is sick, couldn't be clearer, but he was worried about his younger brother Zhao Guangyi! It's a pity that he created such a good opportunity for him, he actually lost more than half of his soldiers and horses in only one battle, and he even filled himself in. Now the ministers in the court are staring at him, if he wants to change him back regardless of what his mother thinks, not to mention the loss of the prestige of the Great Song Dynasty, those old comrades in the court will not be able to rely on him.

At the beginning of the Great Song Dynasty, there were still many things to do, and he couldn't fall into this matter, let alone let the Zhao family risk for the sake of righteousness. Zhao Kuangyin has recently come to see Empress Dowager Du every day, hoping that she can get better.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, please come in and speak. A palace maid with a good face came out of the inner hall, blessed Zhao Kuangyin, and then said.

Zhao Kuangyin recognized that this was the personal maid green beside the queen mother. He nodded, and walked towards the inner sanctum.

"Yuen Long, you must save Tingyi back! That child has been suffering a lot since he was a child, but I didn't expect that now that he has become a royal family, this kind of thing will happen. He's your own brother! You promised your mother that you would save him no matter what! Otherwise, I won't be able to see him!"

Empress Dowager Du took Zhao Kuangyin's hand and pleaded in tears. Yuen Long is the character of Zhao Kuangyin, and Tingyi is the character of Zhao Guangyi.

Zhao Kuangyin looked at his mother in embarrassment, "Mother, I will do my best." You're just a chill, don't say those unlucky things!"

"Alas, I have lived to this age, and I have become the queen mother, what can I not be satisfied with in this life? I only hope that you brothers can love each other, help each other, and live well. As long as I can do that, even if I go to see your father tomorrow, I will be blind. ”

The more Concubine Du spoke, the more excited she became, holding Zhao Kuangyin's hand tightly, and her knuckles turned white.

"Mother, don't say that. Tingyi will definitely come back well, don't worry about it, taking care of your body is the right thing. ”

Zhao Kuangyin really regretted telling his mother the true situation of his younger brother. At that time, Empress Dowager Du somehow noticed something, and asked her brother about her brother vigorously, but she couldn't help but say it for a while. As a result, his mother became ill, and she caught herself every day and talked about saving Tingyi.

When Empress Dowager Du saw that her son refused to give her a word, the boss suddenly became unhappy.

"Yuen Long, Tingyi grew up beside me since he was a child, this child has always regarded you as his life example, and he has to learn from you in everything, you are an elder brother, how to promote him is not an exaggeration. Is it so difficult for you to send someone to get him back now? You're brothers!"

"Mother, where did you go? Don't worry about it, okay? This is your medicine, you should drink it first!"

Zhao Kuangyin said as he put the medicine bowl beside him and blew it, and after making sure that it was not hot, he scooped up a spoonful and sent it to the mouth of the Empress Dowager Du.

"I don't eat it. If you don't send a large army to save Tingyi for a day, I won't take medicine for a day. Empress Dowager Du became willful. She didn't want to listen to those words of comfort! What she wanted was for her eldest son to actually take action to save his younger son.

"Mother~" Zhao Kuangyin shouted helplessly.

Empress Dowager Du turned sideways and gave Zhao Kuangyin a back.

Zhao Kuangyin had no choice but to give the medicine bowl in his hand to the green man standing next to him.

"Take care of the Queen Mother, you must let her drink this medicine. ”

"Yes!" Greenie bowed.

She follows Empress Dowager Du every day, and naturally knows how Empress Dowager Du prefers this little son. In Luyi's eyes, the smart and lively King Jin is good, but she prefers a mature and stable man like Zhao Kuangyin. But she is just a maid, where is she qualified to talk about the affairs of her masters? So she just sighed silently for Zhao Kuangyin in her heart.

Zhao Kuangyin turned around and left, his back a little lonely. Although he is a hero, it can be said that he has long broken through his mother's previous expectations of himself, but in the eyes of his mother, his eldest son is far less intimate than the younger brother who will be coquettish with her.

I am getting older, and I have the future of the Zhao family and the future of the Great Song Dynasty on my shoulders, and sometimes I feel really tired and tired, but I have to grit my teeth and go on. Emperor Road, one careless may be doomed. But the children are too young to help him, and his mother is not considerate enough of him, Tingyi's business......

For the sake of Da Song, he can't rely on his mother anymore this time. Alas~ Zhao Kuangyin just walked towards the outside of Yanfu Palace with heavy steps.

After Meng Chang and Xu Rui discussed, they sent a high-level envoy to Zhao Guangyi to accompany him to Bianjing, and the head of the envoy was Zhang Ye, the founding emperor of Later Shu and the old minister left by Meng Zhixiang, Meng Chang's father.

Zhang Ye and Meng Zhixiang created the foundation of Houshu together, but when he was young, he was injured in a war and never recovered, so he took the initiative to take a senior idle position and rarely appeared in the court. Because the battle of Shu and Song was too important this time, he came out and took the initiative to take charge of logistics such as grain and grass, which saved Meng Chang a lot of heart. This time he sent an envoy to the Northern Song Dynasty, and he also took the initiative to ask for help. Otherwise, Meng Chang would be embarrassed to trouble this founding father.

Zhang Ye said that he had witnessed the establishment of Houshu, and let him also witness the final conclusion of Houshu! These words made both Meng Chang and Xu Rui sigh with emotion, and in combination with his talent and ability, Meng Chang handed over the envoy group to him.

Zhang Ye led a delegation of 200 envoys, and Zhao Guangyi, who had been captured before, Liu Guangjun, the chief general of the Song army, and others set off all the way to Bianjing, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty. As they walked, they hyped up the righteous act of Meng Chang, the emperor of Shu, who was willing to negotiate peace with the Northern Song Dynasty and turn Shu into a state of the Northern Song Dynasty for the sake of the livelihood of the people in the world. Due to the large number of envoys, they did not go fast. Before they left the border of Shu, the news that the lord of Shu had abandoned the country and sought peace had quickly spread to all countries and placed it on Zhao Kuangyin's desk.

Such fanfare was also taken by Zhao Guangyi after discussing with Meng Chang and Xu Rui. Zhao Guangyi was afraid that Zhao Kuangyin would give up on him and not recognize his credit, so he revealed "his own credit" to the world. The crowd is raging, so that no one can erase his credit for "persuading Meng Chang".

"See His Royal Highness the King of Jin!" Daniel Zhang, the new chief general of the Northern Song army, and Li Jian, the former deputy general, who were stationed outside the Sword Gate, led all the soldiers to kneel down and salute Zhao Guangyi.

"All the soldiers don't have to be polite!" Zhao Guangyi glanced at Daniel Zhang coldly, but a kind smile appeared on his face.

This Daniel Zhang is a veteran who is older than Liu Guangjun and one of Zhao Kuangyin's most important henchmen. Zhao Guangyi didn't have any opinions about him, but had opinions about Zhao Kuangyin's denial of his existence after he was captured, but he quickly sent other generals to stabilize the overall situation. He felt that Zhao Kuangyin reacted so quickly, obviously giving up on himself without any entanglement and hesitation.

If I am unlucky, I am afraid that I will die now, right? Fortunately, God blessed, I have picked up a great merit this time, and I can come back from nothing, so that I can stand here and watch these people salute me.

"General Zhang, this king wants to go back to Beijing to resume his life, this is a long way, the task must not be lost, there are few escorts along the way, why don't you go with this king!"

Zhao Guangyi hid the unhappiness in his heart and said to Daniel Zhang with a trusting expression. Liu Guangjun stayed here, he should be more relieved. Because Liu Guangjun's loyal object is the Zhao family, he listens to both Zhao Kuangyin and himself, and Daniel Zhang is just Zhao Kuangyin's henchman. Leaving Liu Guangjun here, Zhao Guangyi should be more at ease. If Daniel Zhang is left behind, his influence on this army will be greatly weakened.

"This ...... Humble to the emperor's order to ......" Daniel Zhang face was embarrassed, and he was spitting out. He didn't know that Zhao Guangyi's heart and Zhao Kuangyin were not as good as before, so he didn't think much about it, but he just felt that something was wrong with his intuition.

Seeing that Daniel Zhang was unwilling to cooperate, Zhao Guangyi's eyes flashed with a ghostly light, and then took out a gold medal and said, "Could it be that Lord Zhang has an opinion about this king? Do you have to ask me to take out the token that my imperial brother gave me? This gold medal was given to me by the imperial brother himself, and Lord Zhang thinks he can send you?"

Zhao Guangyi said that his voice was fierce, and he did not hide the displeasure in his tone at all. This was given to him by Zhao Kuangyin personally when he left Beijing, so that he could smoothly take over the Song army in Shu. Now he's using it here.

"Seeing this gold medal, the emperor came in person. The king of Jin was sent, and he did not dare not listen. Daniel Zhang broke out in a cold sweat and quickly knelt down on the ground and said.

"That's good! This king has always admired General Zhang, and I believe that General Zhang will not let me down. You will hand over military affairs to General Liu tonight, and set off with us tomorrow! General Zhang, this king will rely on you along the way!" Zhao Guangyi put away the fierce color just now, turned around and patted Daniel Zhang's shoulder casually.

Daniel Zhang didn't want to go back like this, at this time there was no credit for going back, and he ran away in vain. But the other party has His Majesty's gold medal, and he has to obey the order. I had to put away my unhappiness and replied, "The last general will listen to the order."

Zhao Guangyi nodded with satisfaction. 166 Reading Network
