Envoys were sent to form an alliance with the Liao State and agreed to attack the party together. Li Zhang's proposal also frightened the whole court of the Great Song Dynasty, the war between the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State had just ended, although the two sides negotiated peace, but it was only on the surface, they were still very defensive against each other, and the border was also lined with large armies.

However, it is normal to think about it carefully, the Great Song Dynasty regards the party as a thorn in the heart, and the Liao State has just been defeated by the party, coupled with the extremely strong momentum of the rise of the book party, as a traditional power, Song Liao is definitely unwilling to have another competitor, so it is still very possible for the two sides to form an alliance to jointly strangle the potential threat of the party.

"Cousin, do you think Yelu Sect will really agree to form an alliance?" In the vertical arch hall, Zhao Zhen asked Li Zhang while reviewing the folds.

"I can't say for sure, in fact, judging from the current situation of Liao, the best way is to find an ally, and there are only two who are qualified to be allies of Liao, either us or the party." Li Zhang replied while looking at today's newspaper at this time.

"Wouldn't it be bad if the Liao Kingdom chose to form an alliance with the party and fight against us together?" Zhao Zhen also put down the fold in his hand when he heard this, frowned and asked.

"It's possible!" Li Zhang also put down the newspaper at this time and raised his head, "If Yelu Ren can persuade Yelu Zongzhen first, it is really possible for them to form an alliance with Dang Xiang, but the Liao State has just been defeated by Dang Xiang, and Yelu Zongzhen is an extremely proud person, so it may not be easy for him to bow to the enemy now." ”

Hearing Li Zhang's analysis, Zhao Zhen also nodded, but then he thought of something again, and immediately spoke again: "Speaking of Liao, recently Goryeo also sent people to ask for the restoration of the tribute between the Great Song Dynasty, and before Goryeo sent troops to attack the six states of Jiangdong, it also achieved the goal of containing the Liao State, I think it is better to cultivate Goryeo." ”

"Goryeo is indeed a good chess piece, but Your Majesty must not forget the lessons of Goguryeo back then, so you must not let Goryeo cross the Yalu River, otherwise they will definitely get involved in Liaodong!" At this time, Li Zhang reminded again that he had never had a good impression of the country of Goryeo, and he had only used them to contain the Liao State before.

"I understand, so when I made the navy independent of the navy before, I also asked people to set up the Northern Navy in Dengju, where 30,000 navies were stationed, including 200 warships, and the main goal was to defend against Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom." Zhao Zhen also nodded at this time.

The navy has become independent from the naval division, and includes three parts: the Northern Navy, the Southern Navy and the Nanyang Navy, of which the Northern Navy is located in Dengzhou, mainly to guard against the threat of the northern coast, while the Southern Navy is located in Quanzhou, which is mainly responsible for the security of the southern coast, and the Nanyang Navy is more special, because it is an offensive navy, and is now mainly responsible for cleaning up the threat of pirates on the Great Song Dynasty to the Nanyang route, and there may be other tasks in the future.

Of course, the three major navies have just become independent, and now they are in the initial process of construction, and many aspects are incomplete, and even officers are very lacking.

"By the way, there's one more thing, my mother hasn't been feeling well lately." Zhao Zhen spoke again at this time.

"Uncomfortable? Is my aunt sick? When Li Zhang heard this, he immediately asked, Empress Dowager Li is old, and it is normal for her to have some physical problems, but he is still very worried.

"The imperial doctor has seen it, and there is nothing wrong with my mother's body, but because she is old and the humidity in the palace is heavy, it is very bad for my mother's body, so the imperial doctor recommends that my mother move outside for a period of time." Zhao Zhen opened his mouth to explain.

"I see, if my aunt is willing, it is better to move to me for a few days, so that it is convenient for me to take care of it nearby." Li Zhang immediately volunteered at this time.

"I also have this intention, but my mother wants to go to Cixiao Temple to worship the Buddha, cousin, you also know your mother's experience, Cixiao Temple has a special meaning for her." Zhao Zhen sighed helplessly at this time and said, he originally wanted to persuade the Empress Dowager Li to go to Li Zhang's place to live temporarily, but the Empress Dowager Li only agreed halfway, because she planned to go to Cixiao Temple to worship the Buddha first, and then go to Li Zhang's place after a while.

"Cixiao Temple!" Li Zhang was stunned when he heard this name, and then he reacted, when Liu E was alive, he once took them to Cixiao Temple to make a vow, Li Zhang and Miao Yuan were also kidnapped there and almost died underground, and Cixiao Temple was also the place where Empress Dowager Li became a monk when she was young, and it was there that Liu E fell in love with her at a glance, which was why she later gave birth to Zhao Zhen for Liu E.

"As people get older, they like to remember more and more, my aunt has lived in Cixiao Temple for a long time, and it is also one of the places she is familiar with, and I remember that the scenery of Cixiao Temple is good, and the temple is quite quiet, but it is a good place to recuperate." Li Zhang nodded immediately.

Li Zhang also thought of Lu Wu and the others who ran to Yanyun at this time, and these old men probably had the same idea, but they had been gone for so long, and they were estimated to be back soon.

"Well, I have already asked people to go to the temple to prepare, and then let my mother recuperate in the temple for a period of time, and my mother also said that after the cultivation, I will go to my cousin's house to have a look, and then cousin, you will help me take care of my mother more." Zhao Zhen spoke again.

Zhao Zhen is almost thirty years old, as the so-called people are middle-aged, there is no one to rely on around them, but there are people everywhere who need to rely on you, and Zhao Zhen is even worse, he still has to bear the heavy responsibility of an empire, and sometimes he has no time to take care of his family, fortunately, Li Zhang can help him share some pressure.

"Don't worry, in the future, I will often visit my aunt in Cixiao Temple when I have time, you just need to focus on the court!" Li Zhang also understood Zhao Zhen's thoughts, and immediately opened his mouth to reassure.

Hearing Li Zhang's words, Zhao Zhen also nodded trustingly, and then the two discussed some things, Li Zhang just said goodbye and left, when he sat in the carriage home, he was also thinking about the possible reaction of the Liao State to the alliance, if the other party agrees, of course, it is the best, if not, but an alliance with the party, Li Zhang is not surprised, with the current strength of the Great Song Dynasty, even if the Liao State and the party are united, it will not change the general trend at all.

Thinking of this, Li Zhang couldn't help but sigh, and then opened the car window to look at the prosperous night scene outside, since the curfew was lifted, the night in Tokyo City has burst into great vitality, and there are even people who specialize in night business.
