And just when the new policy was being promulgated nervously, outside the Great Wall, Murong Gui of Beiyan was gearing up to start another war.

Regarding this matter, Lu Zhaoyi had some thoughts in his heart, and said that he would listen to Xia Pei and ask him for his opinion.

The general meaning is that Murong Zan will continue to be detained first, so as to delay Murong Gui's momentum of continuing the war, but secretly send troops to Yuyang County and Yanmen County, as for Dai County, only 100,000 Qingzhou troops need to be left to garrison.

Once Murong Gui launched a charge, the soldiers and horses of Yuyang and Yanmen rushed out of the pass directly and went straight to Beiyan's lair.

Now that the Central Plains is already stable, if Murong Gui dares to make a mistake easily, Lu Zhaoyi doesn't mind letting him stay here forever.

And her wishes, Xia Pei quickly agreed.

"You can do whatever you want," he looked at Lu Zhaoyi with a hint of pampering in his eyes, "I will help you deal with the aftermath."

Lu Zhaoyi still couldn't help but blurt out, "This time, Your Majesty won't go to the expedition in person. Luo Jing needs you, the emperor, to preside over the overall situation...... So, go for me!"

"You?" Xia Pei was surprised, and reached out to caress her hair, "Fighting is not child's play, can you really?"

Lu Zhaoyi rolled his eyes, "Have you forgotten who the concubine used to be?"

She, Gou Chenzi, an invincible military advisor, was the key person who ended the troubled times three years ago in one fell swoop.

"Oh!" Xia Pei didn't seem to care about this, but instead raised his face slightly, "No matter what, you are my woman, and I don't want you to fall into any danger."

Knowing that he was worried about himself, Lu Zhaoyi pursed his lips and smiled, his eyebrows soft.

She reached out and hugged the man's thin waist, "I'm not afraid, I'm sure I'm safe."

"Okay, then do as you say. But remember, if you encounter danger, retreat immediately, and don't be reckless."

"Hmm." Lu Zhaoyi responded obediently, "Your Majesty, don't worry."

Xia Pei sighed.

Although he agreed to Lu Zhaoyi, he always felt that something was weird, but he couldn't tell where it was.

In the days that followed, Luojing City was preparing to go north again to face the battle, and it was rumored that it was still the emperor's personal expedition, intending to completely solve the hidden danger of Beiyan.

No one knows, but Queen Lu Zhaoyi is already preparing to go north.

Her two newborn children were taken care of by the nurse for the time being, because she would soon be gone.

But before that, she had to see her last public loser.

In the West Pavilion Hall, Lu Zhaoyi sat in front of the desk, writing something with a pen.

In the middle of the night, she put down her pen, took the paper and dried the ink, carefully folding it neatly. The palace people behind him waited carefully, and the master served the grinding ink, serving tea and water.

In front of her, there was an elderly Gong Yitao standing in a Confucian shirt, but there was a trace of fatigue on his face.

Lu Zhaoyi put the pen aside, waved his long sleeves, and raised his eyes to look at him, "Mr. Gongyi, why are you emaciated like this?"

Gong Yitao chuckled, "Minister, it's for the sake of the society, it's hard work. The minister is old, and some things are not so neat. Please forgive me."

She was slightly upright, called out to the palace people around her, gave Gong Yitao a seat, and asked people to pour tea, and then said slowly: "You have worked hard for the community, and you are very pleased to understand."

Speaking of this, he adjusted his sitting posture and cut straight to the point, "Yu wanted to ask you about the Xiling Order, but you said that you would tell Yu at the right time. At this point, are you willing to tell you everything you know?"

Lu Zhaoyi's tone was calm, and he could even be called gentle, however, when he heard it to Gong Yitao, he felt inexplicably depressed.

He hesitated for a moment, bowed his hand, and lowered his head: "I believe that after this year, the queen must have already known in her heart, from Huainan County to Guanzhong, to Wu Chong, Zhuque Hall, and even at this moment, Beiyan's attack. Perhaps, the queen secretly investigated clearly, and asked the ministers what to do?"

"Yes, indeed." Lu Zhaoyi bowed, "But—"

She paused and looked at Gong Yitao, "Check it out, you know this time."

It's one thing to be in love, but it's another thing for Mr. Gong to say it himself, and the two don't conflict, right?"

"Since the queen has guessed it, the minister will no longer hide it." Gong Yitao was sweating profusely, constantly wiping the sweat stains on his forehead with his sleeve.

There was a moment of silence before he spoke slowly.

"In the past six years, the person who has been silently doing things behind his back is the Xianbei people, Murong Ahutuo, and Murong Gui, who now calls himself the King of Northern Yan."

Lu Zhaoyi narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth raised a cold arc. Sure enough, it was him!

"In addition, there are Tuoba Namuya and Yuwen Jinu Khan, and they all have a part in it." Gong Yi Tao added.

She pointed, motioning for him to continue.

"The Xianbei people have coveted the Central Plains for a long time, so they do not hesitate to cultivate cronies rooted in the Central Plains in the troubled times, so that the Xianbei people can go south to occupy the Central Plains and provide a basis for orthodoxy."

"Therefore, Murong Ahutuo changed his original name and respected Confucianism in a different suit, which was also to prepare for going south?" Lu Zhaoyi asked.

"Yes!"

Lu Zhaoyi scoffed, "Such hypocrites are still trying to occupy the world? It's a dream!"

"They're wolf-like! It's just that they're in too much of a hurry!" "In their eyes, the Central Plains is not enough to satisfy their appetites, let alone the Four Kingdoms of the World?"

Lu Zhaoyi frowned, "Then what is their ambition?"

"The world is back to the roots!" Gong Yitao said without hesitation.

Lu Zhaoyi raised his eyebrows, "The world returns to the Yuan? Back then, after all, the Central Plains was divided, and it would be great if it could be reunified. But they didn't expect that the troubled times of the Central Plains would be unified in just three years, completely shattering their plans."

"That's the real reason why they want someone to assassinate me several times, right?"

This is not surprising to her.

At the beginning, on the day before the wedding, she had a vague instinct that someone had designed to assassinate him so many times. It's just that the motives of those people have never been revealed.

"Yes, Queen Shengming." Gong Yi Tao praised, and then his voice changed, "However, they are not reconciled. They still want to enter the Central Plains."

"Is that why you won't cooperate?"

"Yes."

Lu Zhaoyi took a deep breath, "Why can't you tell Yu about the ambitions of these people?"

Gong Yitao shook his head.

"Among them, there is also a plan to hide deeper, they plan to support the Han King, as their puppet to occupy the Central Plains, and then slowly seize it to achieve the goal of entering the Central Plains."

"The Cold King?" Lu Zhaoyi's expression became more and more cold, "This little cleverness, they think it can really work?"

"So, two years ago, King Han was poisoned and controlled. Later, it was not only under the rescue of the imperial physician that he got rid of this step?"

Lu Zhaoyi came to his senses.

She suddenly remembered that he was covered with Gu poison, and he was quite deep in Gu, and he hurt himself like that, and to this day, he still can't let go.

However, all kinds of grievances and entanglements back then, now that I think about it, it is a little sad.

With this in mind, she can gradually let go, King Han and Cui Qinglei are living very steadily in Beijing now, although Cui Qinglei has often entered the palace, but she and Cui Qinglei do not have much intersection, so there is nothing to worry about.

"Queen," seeing that she didn't speak, Gong Yitao spoke again, "You better prepare as soon as possible, so as not to be caught off guard in the future."

Lu Zhaoyi glanced at him lightly.

She snorted softly, "Yu knows all this, since someone wants to play this game with Yu, he will definitely make any preparations, and Mr. Gong Lose doesn't have to bother......

"Yu, I will never allow this group of aliens to invade the Central Plains!"

Gong Yitao was stunned suddenly, as if she didn't expect her determination to be so firm, and the tone in which she said this was so strong and domineering, as if she was taking an oath, and it seemed like stating a fact.

Such a person is just a woman's posture, and it really makes the nearly sixty-year-old Gong Yi Tao sigh

Wear.

"Queen......" he said stunned, as if trying to refute something.

Lu Zhaoyi rushed ahead of him and said coldly, "You just do what you are told, and there is no need to say anything about the rest."

Gong Yitao gritted his teeth, "The queen is wise, and the minister retires."

After he left, from the side door of the side hall, Xia Pei's handsome figure appeared in the West Pavilion Hall, looking into the distance, his brows tightened.

"What is Your Majesty looking at?"

Lu Zhaoyi in the hall noticed that he had come, glanced at him, and smiled at him.

And Xia Pei also responded to her smile, walked towards her step by step, and sat down beside her.

"Fang Cai, I heard what you said to Gong Yitao. What are Yi'er's plans?" Xia Pei asked.

Lu Zhaoyi chuckled, "What can I do?"

Xia Pei furrowed his brows and looked serious, "I know that you are arrogant and don't like to be controlled by others. But if the king of a foreign race has such a plan, he is our enemy."

"yes!" Lu Zhaoyi sighed, "Since they dare to fight the idea of the Central Plains, they naturally won't rely on brute force alone."

Xia Pei pondered for a moment and said, "If they really want to invade, it is not without flaws."

Of course! This is the prosperity that the people of the Central Plains are striving for, and they will not be buried by people of other races no matter what.

Xia Pei held her cold hand.

He knew that these slender and weak hands had commanded the soldiers on the battlefield to fight bloodily on the front line; also knows that these beautiful and elegant eyes are under the staff to guide the world.

However, along the way, she has suffered more than anyone else!

"Yi'er, our two children, I have arranged them, if you really want to prepare to go north to participate in this battle, you must promise me, and you must protect yourself."

Lu Zhaoyi smiled and held his warm palm.

She looked up at Xia Pei, and suddenly smiled like a flower, brilliant and dazzling.

"I'll be safe." As she spoke, she approached Xia Pei, and in his ear, she exhaled like an orchid.

"Ah Pei ......"

Xia Pei's body stiffened, and his cheeks were hot.

"I've taken care of everything in Luojing, even if I'm not in Luojing, I have enough strength to prevent a sudden rebellion from someone in the government and the opposition. I...... General Xia Yuanlong, leave it by His Majesty's side. The idle can hardly get close."

Lu Zhaoyi smiled and said, "So, Your Majesty just needs to wait and see what happens, and wait for the opportunity."

This is said with great confidence.

"Yes, I promise you."

"Ah Pei—"

Lu Zhaoyi tiptoed and hugged his neck.

"Thank you, Your Majesty has always believed in me unconditionally and always given me encouragement." She muttered, "You are so tolerant of me, and let my temperament be, except for the beginning...... You may be a little wary of me, but at the time, I can understand you and forgive you for your initial suspicions."

Xia Pei caressed her back, the corners of her mouth hooked a warm arc, and patted her back.

"You and I are husband and wife, why do you need to be polite?"

"To this day, I am still very guilty of letting you deal with the attack alone at Mengjin Pass, and I can clearly take action." Z.br>

She shook her head violently, telling him that she had stopped caring for a long time.

In the West Pavilion Hall, through the half-open windows, the sunset reflected made them even more reluctant to rely on each other......
