What does His Royal Highness King Dingwang want to say, the Queen Mother's visit to the Taimiao has been agreed by His Majesty and the hundred officials, and it is useless to talk about it now! Seeing Zhao Zhen asking Zhao Yuanyan, Li Zhang suddenly interrupted at this time, and at the same time glanced at Zhao Yuanyan meaningfully.

"Cough~, what Li Duwei said is very true, but this king is a little verbose!" Zhao Yuanyan also smiled awkwardly at this time, he was so anxious just now that he almost told a big secret, but thinking that Liu E was still in power, if he said it himself, he would only be unlucky in the end, so he still decided to keep it a secret for the time being.

Zhao Zhen looked at Zhao Yuanyan at this time, and then looked at Li Zhang, with a puzzled expression on his face, although he was interrupted by Li Zhang, he was sure that Zhao Yuanyan must have something to say, but seeing Zhao Yuanyan's embarrassed appearance, he didn't ask again.

Next, Zhao Yuanyan finally controlled his big mouth, and began to honestly follow Zhao Zhen around the Gyeongbokgun Palace, and in some places Zhao Zhen also made the scale himself, after all, he has lived here for so many years, and knows the advantages and disadvantages of Gyeongbokgun Hall better than anyone else, and he has long wanted to improve some places, but he is afraid of spending money, but now it is good, they are all burned, and they can just be rebuilt.

At noon, Li Zhang wanted to say goodbye and leave, but Zhao Yuanyan refused to leave, Zhao Zhen just wanted to keep them for dinner, so Li Zhang had to stay, Zhao Zhen asked people to prepare a banquet, the three of them chatted while eating, Li Zhang was erudite and talented, and Zhao Yuanyan was even more well-read, so the three of them chatted very speculatively.

"The Queen Mother has arrived!" But at this moment, I suddenly heard a shout outside the hall, and then I saw Liu E walking in, and when she saw that Zhao Yuanyan was also here, her brows were slightly wrinkled, and then she smiled, "Why is the eighth brother here?" ”

"See the imperial sister-in-law!" Zhao Yuanyan also hurriedly stood up and saluted at this time, he was really in awe of Liu E's sister-in-law, especially after Liu E took power, he would rather pretend to be crazy than face Liu E, because he knew that Zhao Heng cared about his brotherhood and would not do anything to him, but if Liu E, a woman, really wanted to deal with herself, then he didn't want to have a good life.

Zhao Zhen and Li Zhang also stood up and saluted at this time, only to see Liu E swinging at this time and said: "No need to be polite, it is convenient for you all to be here, tomorrow the mourning family wants to enter the Taimiao, you must also prepare, don't miss the time!" ”

"Don't worry, Erchen has already been ready, and tomorrow I will personally send the eldest lady to the Taimiao!" Zhao Zhen immediately spoke again, anyway, he had already promised Liu E to go to Taimiao, since this was the case, he simply did it more thoroughly, even if it was his filial piety as a son.

Hearing Zhao Zhen say this, Liu E also nodded with great satisfaction, and then chatted with Zhao Zhen for a few words, and then prepared to leave, in fact, like this kind of trivial matter, she just sent someone to visit, but during this time, because of the matter of entering the Taimiao, Liu E was also extremely excited, even if it was some small things, she had to deal with it personally.

"By the way, you already know about Liaoguo, it's almost as you expected, which direction do you think Liaoguo will go next?" Liu E suddenly thought of the news of Liao State at this time, and immediately turned her head to look at Li Zhang and asked, before Li Zhang judged that Xiao Yunjin might be in power, and now it really happened, although this incident also caused some bad effects on Liu E, but she couldn't ignore the movements of Liao State.

"Qi Yu Niangniang, Xiao Yunjin is more than ruthless, but short-sighted, I used a little gift to close the relationship with the other party, compared to the previous Empress Dowager Xiao, she is too much worse."

When he said this, he saw Li Zhang pause for a moment and then said: "In addition, although the newly enthroned Yelu Zongzhen is the son of Xiao Yunjin, this person is very proud, and he is definitely not a person who is willing to live under the people, now he is young, and he may not be able to take Xiao Yunjin, but as he grows older, he will definitely break out into a fierce conflict with Xiao Yunjin, and it is not impossible for civil strife to break out again in Liao!" ”

In fact, Li Zhang knows very well that Xiao Yunjin has only been in power for four years, but he has already stirred up the civil strife in the Liao State, and even wants to abolish the aging Yelu Zongzhen and replace it with another younger son to ascend the throne, which is more convenient for her to control, but unfortunately Yelu Zongzhen is not a vegetarian, he took advantage of Xiao Yunjin's unpreparedness to launch a mutiny, and directly put Xiao Yunjin under house arrest to regain the imperial power, although there was some chaos afterwards, but he was quickly pacified.

Of course, no matter how clear Li Zhang knows, he can't say it directly, otherwise he will have to be regarded as a monster. And as soon as Li Zhang's words came out, Liu E and Zhao Yuanyan couldn't help but look at Zhao Zhen next to them, which made the corners of Zhao Zhen's mouth twitch, although Li Zhang was talking about Yelu Zongzhen, he always felt like he was talking about himself.

"Ahem, if it's really like what I said, I'm afraid that the Liao Kingdom will not be able to live in peace for the past few years, but this is also a good thing for our Great Song Dynasty!" Liu E cleared her throat after a while and said, she was not afraid that Zhao Zhen would be the same as Yelu Zongzhen, after all, she knew Zhao Zhen's temperament too well.

"Queen Mother, the situation in the Liao State is unstable, although it is their internal affair, it may affect the security of the frontier, and the minister thinks that the garrison of the Hebei border army should be strengthened, so as not to have an accident on the frontier!" Li Zhang took the opportunity to ask at this time, the so-called strengthening of the garrison of the border army is nothing more than to mobilize sufficient materials for the Hebei border army, so that they can strengthen training, and even expand some troops, such as the musket army, of course, Li Zhang's purpose is not to defend the city, but to prepare for the future initiative to attack the Liao State.

"This matter ......" Liu E also showed a contemplative expression when she heard this, Li Zhang's thoughts she saw through at a glance, but what Li Zhang said was not completely unreasonable, if there was civil unrest in Liao, God knows what would happen, so it was also appropriate for the border army to strengthen the garrison.

I saw Liu E hesitate for a moment, and finally nodded and said: "This matter will wait until tomorrow, and the mourning family will summon Lu Xiang and them to discuss, and then make plans!" ”

"Empress Dowager Xie!" Li Zhang was also happy when he heard this, as long as Liu E could listen to it, even if it was different from his own plan, it was a good thing to increase some armaments in Hebei, especially the first batch of students of martial arts would also go to Hebei this year, and increasing armaments would also provide them with some opportunities.

The matter has been finished, Liu E saw that Zhao Zhen and the three of them had not finished eating, so they did not stay here, Zhao Zhen and Li Zhang also personally sent Liu E out, but at the moment when Liu E walked out of the palace gate, he suddenly saw Liu E's body shake a few times, and then grabbed Zhao Zhen's arm.
