"If Your Majesty decides, Weichen will have to reluctantly agree." Zhao Pu saw that he had made up his mind, so he had to say.

The prime minister agreed, and the others saw that the emperor had made up his mind, and they were all smooth people, where would they object.

So Zhao Guangyi announced the holy decree of the imperial conquest in the early dynasty.

This decision naturally caused a lot of discussion, but the courtiers knew that it was a struggle for power and military power.

And the King of Wei did not come out to speak, and it was useless to support the faction of the King of Wei even if they opposed it.

Zhao Ting was naturally anxious after knowing it, and he knew very well why Zhao Guangyi wanted to drive the expedition in person.

The previous Northern Expedition fought with Di Xiechen for more than half a year, and he knew that he used soldiers like a god, even if the Northern Han Dynasty has declined a lot now, it should not be taken lightly.

If he came forward to oppose it, it would be a denial of the royal driver's personal conquest, and it would increase the suspicion in the heart of the imperial brother.

During this time, he tried to get out of the court as much as possible.

Because the faction that has always supported the King of Wei did not give up because the King of Wei did not fight.

The parties have always been the same and different, and the partisan disputes are all for their own interests and future plans, Zhao Ting can plan his own, but these people also have their own plans.

You can't stop others from having desires and ambitions, and you can only let yourself gradually become an unsuitable supporter.

Let his influence and threats slowly dissolve invisibly - this is what he can do in order to stabilize the Great Song Dynasty.

I also knew in my heart that my own voluntary concession could not eliminate the suspicion of an emperor.

Even if there is no threat at all, how can others snore on the side of the couch is a constant truth on the road to imperial power.

I just hope that there will not be a day of rupture with the third brother, just need some time, and when the world is unified and the Great Song Dynasty is stable, he can quietly leave with Yun Moxi.

But he could only say these words to Yun Moxi, and no one could understand and believe it except her.

I can't say it to Zhao Guangyi.

Thinking that there is still a person in this world who knows how to love himself, Zhao Ting's heart is warm, and the worries in his heart have been alleviated a lot.

While deciding to give up the throne, it means giving up a lot of things, there will be a lot of forbearance and helplessness, and even humiliation and danger.

Everything is worth it for Da Song, and even more for her.

Looking up, he saw Yun Moxi coming in with a tray, and a smile bloomed on his face.

"I heard you sigh outside the door, are you worried about Your Majesty's personal conquest?"

He stepped forward and took the tray, and there was a cup of soup in it.

"What is this?" Asked curiously.

"I know you're in a depressed mood, so I specially made lotus seed soup to make you feel good." Yun Moxi said and served a bowl in a small bowl.

"As long as I see you, I won't be bored." He took it with a smile and tasted it, paused and continued to drink it casually.

"How?" Some looked at it with some anticipation and some nervousness.

This is the first time she has made lotus seed soup, and she is really not sure, but looking at Zhao Ting's appearance, it seems that she is okay.

"Delicious!" He smiled and nodded, and drank a bowl in three or two sips.

"It's delicious, and another bowl." Yun Moxi was very happy, and was encouraged to see that he liked to serve another bowl.

Zhao Ting took it and drank it quickly.

Her work turned out to be a success, and she couldn't help it, "I'll try it too!" ”

Scooped up a spoonful and took a sip, and suddenly his face wrinkled, "It's so bitter!" How do you drink it. ”

"As long as you make it, no matter how bitter it is, I feel sweet." Zhao Ting said with a smile, and before he could stop her from drinking, he had to take a piece of candied fruit from the food box on the table and put it in her mouth.

"How can it be bitter? It was too hot just now, I should have tried it before I brought it. "I can't help but be a little discouraged.

hugged her and comforted: "Of course it's bitter to put the lotus heart in together!" But as you said, it's hard but clear, and I think it's good. ”

"It turns out that you don't need to put lotus hearts."

"I'll make it for you next time."

"Alright! You will comfort people. ”

Zhao Ting hugged her and couldn't help but bow his head and kiss her forehead. Seeing her pouting, I didn't feel like it was enjoyable and wanted to kiss it.

Yun Moxi pushed him away with a smile, "This is the study, and people can see jokes in broad daylight." ”

He didn't let go but hugged him tighter, "Whoever dares to laugh will sew his mouth up." Hook her chin and kiss her.

I couldn't move, so I had to wrap my arms around his waist, and he kissed and touched him and laughed.

The two stick together every day, kissing and hugging anytime and anywhere, and people are used to it, at first Yun Moxi would blush, but now he also feels that his skin is getting thicker and thicker.

After making a fuss for a while, he slapped his hand away with a smile, "Don't make trouble, ask you seriously, what are you going to do if Your Majesty wants to take the royal conquest in person?" ”

"I don't know who gave him a bad idea, so even Zhao Pu didn't persuade him. It seems that he is iron-hearted, not to mention that the holy decree has been issued and cannot be changed. Let it be! ”

"Really?"

"Whether this matter is good or not, if you can really destroy the Northern Han in one fell swoop, you can indeed consolidate the throne. In the future, no one will dare to question his authority, and the officers and men in the army will be convinced. ”

"Isn't that good?"

"Not good...... is worried that he is too eager for quick success and too contemptuous of the evil Chen, and most of the generals he appointed this time are inexperienced. I didn't fight in the Northern Han Dynasty, which is what I'm worried about. ”

"And what are you going to do?"

"In the last session, I told him about my experience and strategic deployment, and I will also recommend a few experienced generals to him, depending on whether he adopts them."

Of course, Zhao Ting is better at military affairs, so she had to nod, "It can only be like this." ”

A few days later, Zhao Guangyi received Zhao Ting's recital, although he felt that his deployment was reasonable.

can think that Zhao Ting must be unwilling and want to point fingers, feeling uncomfortable, and he believes that he has led troops for many years, and he ignored his advice.

After a while, the envoys sent to Liao also came back to report that everything went well, and the Empress Dowager Xiao of Liao promised not to send troops.

Zhao Guangyi and the ministers were more confident.

So the court arranged for the king of Wei, Zhao Pu and several ministers to assist the government.

When everything was ready, Zhao Guangyi led the army to set off majestically.

At first, everything went well, and the good news kept coming.

The dynasty was happy, but only Zhao Ting had a faint uneasiness in his heart.

Most of the red kites were sent to the Northern Han Dynasty to investigate the news of various parties.

Although he did not go on the expedition, he set up a huge sand table in the house, and he practiced this battle on the sand table every day according to the return of the red kite.

Yun Moxi accompanies him every day, and he doesn't dare to disturb when he sits aside and reads.

Today, I felt that Zhao Ting was a little abnormal, and he kept staring at the sand table and frowned for a long time.

I didn't want to disturb, but seeing that his face was getting more and more gloomy, I had to put down the book and ask, "What's wrong?" ”

"I'm not sure."

"What do you mean?"

"According to the recent battle situation, it is found that although the Song army has been winning small victories, it is more like luring the enemy deep and trapping it step by step."

"You're saying this is the strategy of the Northern Han Army?"

"Lured the enemy deeper, saw that the imperial brother was eager to win, and deliberately let him win a small victory. A small victory will make him move forward bravely, and now he has reached the city of Jinyang. ”
