Chapter 140: The Marriage of the Liao State

Li Zhang returned home and immediately asked Lu Wu about Lei Yungong, but he didn't expect that the focus of Lu Wu's talk was not Lei Yungong, but another person, this person was Zhou Huaizheng.

Zhou Huaizheng is also a eunuch, this person is quite capable, before Zhao Heng sealed Mount Tai, built a palace, Taoist temple, etc., many things were handed over to him to deal with, for which Zhou Huaizheng was also named Zhaoxuan because of his merits, and at the same time the previous East Palace Governor.

However, at the beginning of this year, when Li Zhang had not yet crossed, Zhou Huaizheng secretly summoned Yang Chongxun, the envoy of the guest province, Yang Huaiji, the undertaker of the inner temple, and others to prepare to launch a mutiny, but he was not for himself, but because he saw Ding Wei's dictatorship, and Liu E controlled the government, which made him deeply feel that the imperial power of the Great Song Dynasty was falling, so in order to support Zhao Zhen, he decided to launch a mutiny, trying to help Zhao Zhen, the crown prince, seize the imperial power.

However, it is a pity that Zhou Huaizheng's mutiny has not yet been launched, and he was told by a person, and this person is Lei Yungong, Lei Yungong was originally Zhou Huaizheng's person, but his status was not very high, but relying on this whistleblowing, Lei Quan made a great contribution all of a sudden, thus replacing Zhou Huaizheng as the eunuch of the East Palace, and becoming the number one eunuch by Zhao Zhen's side.

As for Zhou Huaizheng, who failed in the mutiny, the end was naturally very miserable, and it is said that he was secretly executed by Liu E, because this mutiny involved a power struggle within the royal family, and it was not very glorious, so not many people in the outside world knew about it.

"The relationship between Zhou Huaizheng and the prince is extremely deep, and even the prince has always called him 'brother of the Zhou family', but this matter involves the prince, and he can't intercede for Zhou Huaizheng, plus the queen can't tolerate sand in her eyes, so in the end, Zhou Huaizheng naturally can't escape death, but although he died, he left a name of loyalty, even if everyone didn't dare to discuss it publicly, but they all praised Zhou Huaizheng in private." Lu Wu finally sighed and concluded.

"Loyalty?" Li Zhang smiled secretly after hearing this, he felt that this Zhou Huaizheng was not so simple, of course, he did not explicitly refute Lu Wu's words, but inquired about some things related to Lei Yungong again, after all, Zhou Huaizheng was dead, and now he was most concerned about Lei Yungong.

In the eyes of outsiders, Lei Yungong served as the eunuch of the East Palace, and he was also beautiful for a while, but Li Zhang learned some different news from Lu Wu, such as Lei Permission relied on betraying Zhou Huaizheng to the throne, although he got the position of the eunuch of the East Palace, but many people said that he had a loss of personal morality, such a person staying by the prince's side would only teach the prince badly, plus Liu E also wanted to cultivate his own henchmen, so Lei Yungong's current position is not very stable.

In order to keep his position, Lei Yungong also had to hug Ding Wei's thigh, and Ding Wei also wanted to use him to grasp the prince's situation, and the two hit it off, which is also the reason why they colluded together.

"You follow the prince every day, you should know the prince's attitude towards Lei Yungong best, right?" Finally, Lu Wu asked rhetorically.

"No wonder the prince is not very close to Lei Yungong, and he has mentioned the brother of the Zhou family several times, it seems that his relationship with Zhou Huaizheng is really good!" Li Zhang said again thoughtfully at this time.

However, Li Zhang didn't think that Zhou Huaizheng had any good intentions in launching a mutiny, on the surface, he was indeed under the banner of supporting Zhao Zhen, but Zhao Zhen was so young that he could not govern at all, and he was deeply trusted by Zhao Zhen, if Zhou Huaizheng was really successful, I am afraid that Zhao Zhen would only hand over the power to him, which is also the main reason why Li Zhang felt that Zhou Huaizheng was not simple.

Early the next morning, Li Zhang went to Zishantang as usual, and when he saw Lei Yungong, the other party seemed to have become more cordial, and Li Zhang was also much closer to the other party on the surface, but he knew that Lei Yungong was an out-and-out villain, and he was disliked by Liu E and Zhao Zhen, plus the relationship between Ding Wei, so it was okay to fool around on the surface, and he must not get too close to the other party in private.

"Cousin, tell you something, the mission of the Liao Kingdom is coming!" As soon as Zhao Zhen saw Li Zhang, he was very excited and said loudly.

"The Liao delegation will come when it comes, won't it be another New Year's coin?" Li Zhang glanced at Zhao Zhen and said, the year coin is a stain on his father's life, obviously the Liao State was already at the end of the strong crossbow at that time, and there was no power to go south at all, plus Kou Zhun and others fought the main battle, but Zhao Heng was too timid to fight at all, and in the end it was the alliance of Tanyuan, nominally the two sides became a country of brothers, but in fact the Great Song Dynasty spent money to keep it safe.

"No, Liao Guo is for marriage this time!" Zhao Zhen smiled mysteriously at this time.

"Marriage? Who are you marrying, should it be the Duke of Liao who wants to marry you, or is he going to marry Miaoyuan? Li Zhang couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Zhao Zhen's words, he really didn't remember that the Song and Liao countries had a marriage in history?

"How is it possible, there will be no Khitans in the palace at all, otherwise I won't sleep well, and as for marrying a princess, it is even more impossible, my Da Song has never had any intention of getting married!" When Zhao Zhen said the word "harmony", he also showed a proud look on his face.

Speaking of which, although the Great Song Dynasty is not as good as the former Tang Dynasty in terms of national strength, it is one point stronger than the Tang Dynasty, that is, it never gets along, because the Tang Dynasty married so many princesses, and it didn't have much effect, so at the beginning of the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, the tone of discord was set, anyway, by the time Zhao Zhen arrived, there was no matter of the princess marrying outside.

"It's not you and it's not Miaoyuan, is it me who can't do it?" Li Zhang heard this but joked, don't look at the Great Song Dynasty is a weak chicken militarily, but with the increasing strength of the economy and culture, the mentality of the Song people has also changed a lot, and they have a contemptuous attitude towards the surrounding countries, even if they are Khitans, they are also the objects of contempt of the Song people, so it is reasonable for Zhao Zhen to be reluctant to accept Khitan women, of course, Li Zhang does not mind marrying Khitan women, as long as the person is beautiful, there is no way, Li Zhang thinks he is a layman.

"Cousin, if you want to marry, I can help you get a Khitan royal woman in the future, but this time the Liao Kingdom is not marrying our Great Song Dynasty, but the marriage team is passing by our Great Song Dynasty." Zhao Zhen also showed a mysterious smile when he said this, and then continued, "Why don't you guess cousin, who is Liao going to marry this time?" ”

"Passing by?" Li Zhang was also a little disappointed when he heard this, he thought that he would dig out something different, but he didn't expect that people were just passing by, but he was also very curious, the Liao marriage team actually passed by the Great Song Dynasty, who is this going to marry?
