He and Emperor Liu Wenlong of Liang were the proud sons of the same era, and both of them implemented changes to their respective countries, and both achieved great achievements.

Liu Wenlong was ambitious, hid millions of soldiers, tried to swallow the Eight Desolations, and became the co-lord of the world. And Li Zhao is much more cautious, step by step, steady and steady, hoping to lead Zheng Guo to become rich and strong.

Judging from the situation back then, whether Liu Wenlong or Li Zhao, they both had the strength to sit on an equal footing with Zhao and Song and compete for hegemony.

If it weren't for the sudden rise of the storm and the great change in the situation, which destroyed Zheng Liang's good situation, the two would have become important figures in the north.

It is a pity that the heavens do not fulfill people's wishes, and in the game of interests of all parties, Zheng and Liang are gradually excluded, and they are annihilated and annexed, and they are annihilated in the long river of history, or they are in a precarious situation and will destroy the country at any time.

From the current point of view, Li Zhao's life can be divided into two stages, before and after, in the first half of his life, he led his ministers, implemented drastic reforms, made great achievements, and became a famous prince in the north.

At this stage, Li Zhao was even promoted to the position of overlord by the northern princes. It can be described as a spring breeze and infinite glory!

When the Yan State rose up, destroyed the Jin State, and began to show his muscles, Li Zhao's life began to change, especially in order to fight against the Liang State, the Chen Songyan Alliance was formed in the north, and he was completely knocked from the top of the mountain to the bottom.

One had a catastrophe that caught him off guard, and then, no matter how hard he tried to change, he didn't turn things around, and he took Zheng Guo to develop in a good direction.

Zheng Guo first suffered from the southern Chu State, crossed the border attack, and then, encountered the attack of Liang State, the crisis has just been resolved, Liang State General led more than 100,000 cavalry, turned to Zheng State.

At this time, he felt that Zheng Guo should be extremely Tailai and qualified to rise.

Unexpectedly, Chen Song destroyed the Liang State, non-stop, and the soldiers pointed directly at Zheng Guo, under the joint attack of Chen and Song, Zheng Guo was invincible with both fists and four feet, a large area of territory was occupied, fertile land was destroyed, and the people were displaced.

Too late to realize his ambitions and make great achievements, Zheng Guo suffered a catastrophe, and he, the master of Zhongxing, almost became the king of the dead country.

Recalling the past, Li Zhao felt aggrieved in his heart, and there was an indescribable pain.

At this moment, Su Qin suggested that although he was risky, he could make Zheng Guo spend a very small price, use the strength and contradictions between the vassal states, and recover the old land of Zheng State, which might stabilize the country, and it was strange that Li Zhao did not agree.

He is ambitious and capable, Zheng has famous ministers, generals, and still has surplus ordnance, materials and food, although he has lost a large amount of territory, he is at the end of his rope.

If you spend a small amount of money and food today, change the hostile relationship with Yan in the past, and if you have the opportunity to replace Song and form an alliance with Chen Zhengyan, even if you lose today, it will be worth it.

Li Zhao's eyes lit up, stared at Su Qin, and said earnestly: "Captain Su, can you lobby Yan Guo." Whether Zheng Guo can come to Ji Tailai, reverse the unfavorable situation, make a comeback, and become the overlord of the Central Plains, it's all up to you.

Go to Yan State and lobby Emperor Yan, it doesn't matter how much wealth you spend, as long as you lobby Yan State to send troops, you will be a minister of Zheng Guozhongxing. ”

At this moment, although Li Zhao did not regard Su Qin as his life-saving straw, he also had high hopes for Su Qin, after all, he still had the ambition to compete for hegemony!

"The emperor can rest assured, Wechen will definitely not live up to the emperor's expectations, it's just a matter of treasure, Wechen hopes that the emperor will be perfect, and the truth will be true, so that the chances of winning will increase by a few points!" Su Qin said!

"Don't worry, before you go to the Yan Kingdom, I will cooperate with you to complete the matter of the Heavenly Prince's treasure." Li Zhao said with a serious expression, Su Qin's trip is related to the future of Zheng Guo, and it is definitely not a child's play!

At this moment, Su Qin suggested that Li Zhao's dead heart began to resurge, and he only felt that if he acted according to Su Qin's advice, things seemed to be far from being as bad as he imagined, and he was in a good mood for a while!

"Your Majesty, be careful to make the 10,000-year-old ship, Taiwei Su's suggestion is excellent, but Weichen is still worried!" When Han Qi heard that Su Qin's suggestion was adopted, he was extremely unhappy, but he couldn't stop it, so he could only remind him, but looking at Su Qin Yan was very strange, as if telling Li Zhao, Your Majesty, don't forget, Su Qin and Lin Feng are in a relationship with Weng and son-in-law!

Li Zhao waved his hand and said loudly: "This matter, I have made up my mind, there is no need to say more, Han Qi, you do your own thing, strive to lobby the gate valve to assist Zheng Guo, and call on the heroes of the whole world to help Zheng Guo tide over the difficulties!" ”

"Yes!" Han Qi was helpless!

At this time, Han Xiandang, who had not spoken for a long time, took half a step and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, since you have asked Emperor Yan to send troops, do you need to continue the battle on the front line, do you wait for the arrival of the Yan army, and the two sides will unite and work together to deal with the Song army!" ”

"Chase after victory!" Li Zhao said.

It is rare to achieve a victory in the war against the Song army, and if you wait for the Yan army to temporarily suspend your troops without fighting, it will inevitably affect your morale. What's more, the battle with the Song Dynasty did not affect the invitation of the Yan army in the slightest.

The plan has been decided, just to be implemented quickly, Su Qin and Han Qi have withdrawn from the Jinluan Palace, and only Han Xiandang, who discussed the military situation, was left behind.

Walking out of the main hall, Han Qi and Su Qin walked side by side, glanced at Su Qin, who was walking quickly, and said in a strange manner: "Taiwei Su, the emperor believes in you, you have to go all out, go to Yan Kingdom to represent the interests of Zheng Guo, not meet Weng and son-in-law!" ”

"People are doing it, the sky is watching, Prime Minister Han Cheng, you had better be wholehearted and don't have two hearts, otherwise, even if the emperor needs Han's financial resources and let you go, I will let you die ugly!" Su Qin fought back without showing weakness!

The contradiction between the two has already reached the point of facing Mai Mang, if it weren't for the bad situation in Zheng Guo, at this moment, whether it is Su Qin or Han Qi, it is very likely that there is only one person standing outside the main hall, and the other person would have slept with the loess!

"Su Qin, you, old horseman!" Watching Su Qin walk away, Han Qi trembled with anger, there were some things that he prided himself on doing seamlessly, but unexpectedly, he was still found out by Su Qin.

The stakes are very high, this time Su Qin left Zheng Jinyan, and he must have the other party go and never return, so as not to destroy his own deployment.

In the main hall, after Li Zhao and Han Xiandang discussed the military situation, they signaled all the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace to leave, and when the two ministers were promoted in the palace, Li Zhao whispered to Han Xiandang: "General Han, during the period when Taiwei Su left Zheng Jinyan, he sent troops to secretly surround the Taiwei Mansion, and everyone in the palace must know every move, in addition, during the departure of Taiwei Su, Taiwei's Mansion must not be allowed to leave Luoyi City!" ”

Surprised, curious, Han Xiandang looked at Li Zhao, puzzled in his heart, obviously sent Taiwei Su to Yan State to seek benefits for Zheng Guo, but he wanted to surround the Taiwei Mansion and treat the people in the Taiwei Mansion as prisoners, he thought about it, and couldn't guess the emperor's thoughts.

Unexpectedly, Li Zhao stared at him, his expression was extremely serious, and he pondered for a long time and said: "Ordinary people, there is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need to suspect people, Taiwei Su is indeed loyal to Zheng Guo's saddle before and after, I shouldn't doubt him." However, General Han, you should know that Taiwei Su's daughter is the concubine of Emperor Yan, and she heard that she was favored by Emperor Yan, and she had already given birth to a dragon son, and her position in Yan was very stable.

Moreover, the Yan State has successively annexed the Jin and Zhao Saiwai, occupied the nine counties of the Liang State, and the national strength is thriving, and many people in the vassal states go to the Yan State to seek a future.

Moreover, Zheng Guo's current situation is extremely bad, if Su Qin carries a huge amount of wealth from the treasury and directly switches to Yan Guo, Zheng Guo's situation will become worse and worse, and he has to be unprepared! ”

"Oooh!" Han Xiandang was as stunned as a wooden chicken, and nodded subconsciously.

At this time, even Su Qin, the important minister who presided over Zheng Guo's reform and promoted Zheng Guo's rapid strengthening, was suspected by the emperor, and he didn't dare to imagine whether he was also suspected by the emperor if he had a heavy army.

In the case of rumors, everyone is in danger, and things are very bad!

Sensing the fear in Han Xiandang's expression, Li Zhao realized what the other party was thinking, and said softly: "General Han, you have to worry a lot about training sailors, you are Su Qin, Han Qi, and Xing Yike, they are all old ministers of Zheng Guo, we should work together to tide over the difficulties together!" ”

When Han Xiandang heard this, he responded: "The emperor can rest assured, the last general will live and die with Zheng Guo, and he will never do anything to turn his back on Zheng Guo!" ”

The monarch and the ministers talked for a long time, and when Han Xiandang walked out of the main hall, he was in a cold sweat and hurriedly left the palace.

At this time, Li Zhao walked out, looked at the sun in the sky covered by dark clouds, and said in a low voice: "For Zheng Guo, if anyone loses me, he will be killed!" ”

...........

Yanguo, Yanjing City!

Lin Feng also stood outside the Jinluan Palace, looking at the sky, silent for a long time, Situ, Wen Jishi, Hou Mingfeng, and Liu Xuanyuan around him didn't know what he was thinking about?

After the friendship with the Song State, the series of reactions caused by it, within half a month, fermented in various vassal states one after another, and the letters sent back by spies from all over the country were all presented on the Dragon Case.

Some of the contents of the letter were expected by Lin Feng, and some were unexpected, but he did not expect that the Yan and Song Dynasty would cause an uproar in the north and even the south!

Wu Yue and the two countries that had sent assassins and killers to infiltrate Yanjing City, in order to prevent Yan from retaliating, began to Chen soldiers on the south bank of the Yangtze River to prevent the Yan army from going south!

When he first heard it, Lin Feng scoffed and directly ignored the actions of the two countries, the north was not peaceful, and the Yan army would never leave any hidden dangers to go south!

However, Lin Shuying dared to send Yuan Muchun to lead the elite to be stationed on the border between the two countries to prevent the Yan army from going south, Lin Feng was surprised, but he had some ideas.

It seems that Yan Guo's support for Zheng Guo's approach stimulated Lin Shuying, but it seems that he has not yet hit the other party's vital point, otherwise, Lin Shuying would not dare to send Yuan Muchun to attack and defend the border of Yan and Song.

At present, no matter what attitude Lin Shuying holds, Lin Feng is not afraid of Song Jun.

The border between Yan and Song is long, but only Yuan Muchun is stationed in the Bishan area, Ruolin Shuying thinks that this can block the footsteps of the Yan army to the south, it is simply wishful thinking!

However, Lin Shuying's means to Yan are not only in the military field, early in the morning, the envoy of the Song State arrived in Yanjing City, and presented a letter written by Lin Shuying, in which he listed the list of members of the bloody stab in Kaifeng City, and asked with a slight provocation, or beheaded, or released?

After reading the letter, the envoy presented a second letter, which listed many Yanguo Chamber of Commerce, and asked more and more provocatively, is it expulsion or reservation?

After reading the two letters, after retiring from the dynasty, Lin Feng completely fell into contemplation.

At first, I couldn't guess what Lin Shuying meant, and the intuitive Lin Shuying asked twice, both of which were provoking herself, and at that time, she only felt that the other party's methods were too naΓ―ve.

However, after reading carefully and recalling it repeatedly, Lin Feng gradually understood that Lin Shuying's intentions, no matter whether it was a blood thorn or a member of the Chamber of Commerce, they all fell into the hands of the Song people, if Lin Shuying was less, why should he ask himself?

The other party did not retaliate, but left the decision to himself, which obviously has another meaning!
