Today, Li Xuexue, who has been in seclusion for eight years, has returned to Jinzhou.

Li Xuexuan was not only Zhao Yichen's enlightenment master, but also the former chief constitution of the Inspectorate, and his status in the DPRK and China was not trivial.

After all, we have to face all this.

The Queen Mother moved Li Xuexue out, just to use Zhao Yichen's remaining goodwill to achieve her own goals.

After the dispersal of the court, the side hall of the Heavenly Temple was bustling with dozens of important officials from the court, many of whom were officials who had worked since the reign of the first emperor, and some were pure ministers gradually cultivated by Zhao Yichen after he ascended the throne.

The two teams consciously divided the queue, except for Xu Xingzhi and Lin Xuqiu.

They are well aware of Zhao Yichen's ambitions, and it is inappropriate to stand on either side, so they can only hide in an invisible corner.

Remembering that his brother died in battle, Zhao Yichen specially allowed Qiu Yutong to enter the Heavenly Temple.

But he was not used to other women standing next to him, so he also called Song Zhi together.

Song Zhi was wearing a golden robe in the color of the leaves today, standing quietly beside Zhao Yichen, not inferior to Qiu Yutong at all, and even had the momentum to compare her.

Except for Xu Xingzhi and Lin Xuqiu, everyone looked at Song Zhi up and down.

This is what the palace has passed on by word of mouth, seducing the lord's red face and troubled water.

However, when they saw the real person, they realized that although her facial features were bright, she was full of indifference with grief and anger, and she didn't look like a prodigal person who would use improper means to get to the top.

Especially the leaf-colored robe, which set off her skin tone excellently.

Speech is cannibalistic, even if everyone saw Song Zhi with their own eyes, but those rumors were preconceived early on, and if they wanted to reverse it, they would have to wait for a long time.

"Scholar Li, please take a seat."

Li Xue walked in from outside the Heavenly Temple trembling on crutches, and the sound of the wooden crutches collided with the stone bricks of the palace street, invisibly plating himself with a layer of irrefutable majesty.

"Your Majesty, the old man has retired for many years, and now he really can't stand it, and he wants to come to see His Majesty after fighting for this old life."

Li Xuexue is full of gray hair, and the years have left a lot of marks on his face, but it still does not hide the heroic righteousness he has left since he was young.

"If a pedant has something to say, he might as well say it directly."

"I happened to read an article, one of which was 'You don't see the flag floating, and no one collects the bones in ancient times.'" It's just that the new ghost is at a loss, and the old ghost is resentful, which makes the old man sad and short-hearted. ”

Zhao Yichen studied under him when he was young, and since he was valued by the first emperor, he had the privilege of being taught by the first emperor himself, which was separated from the pedantry.

He knew exactly what the pedant meant.

Through a poem, it satirizes Zhao Yichen who only cares about the war and does not care about the suffering of the people.

He set fire to the Fengluan Palace, and the Queen Mother took out Li Xue to suppress him.

"Scholar, I don't care about you because you are old, if you leave this heavenly temple and hear this poem in anyone's mouth, I will slap his head."

"Your Majesty, now that the treasury is abundant, it is a great time to serve the country and the people, why use war to destroy the great rivers and mountains that the first emperor has guarded all his life?"

"How do you know that Your Majesty is not doing this for the country and the people!" Song Zhi couldn't stand it anymore, she understood Zhao Yichen's hesitation, and she also knew that the significance of this battle to Jinzhou was extraordinary.

Seeing that Zhao Yichen was sitting in the entire city, only a few people supported his actions, and even misunderstood Zhao Yichen's original intention.

It is difficult for people to understand the truth of everything and at the same time swallow their anger.

"What are you! Dare to talk to the old decay like this. Li Xuexue followed the voice and looked at Song Zhi, thinking that it was a wealthy lady, but at a glance, he found that she was just a little woman who couldn't enter the stage.

"You're just a little woman who can't get on the stage, how can you understand the cruelty of war? Don't you have such a lie that your relatives died in battle in the sand? ”

Li Xuexuan's gaze seemed to be able to eat people, and he could see through the humility of Song Zhi hiding behind him at a glance.

There were dozens of people standing in Her Highness, and every pair of eyes was staring at her at the moment.

It's not that she doesn't know her reputation in the mouths of these people, and since it's no better, she simply makes it a little more stinky.

"I know I'm not worthy, but I always believe that Your Majesty has his own considerations, doesn't this pedant want to believe the students he brought out with his own hands?" Song Zhiqiang held back his trembling hands and tried to keep himself calm.

Li Xuezhi choked on this question.

Zhao Yichen is the best student he has taught in his life, and he is not as thorough as a woman.

Taking advantage of the pedant's wordless rebuttal, Song Zhi immediately pursued.

"Whether it is a pedant or a person who opposes the war now, they only see the slaughter brought about by His Majesty's belligerence, why does no one see that all important nodes are now subsumed into Jinzhou one after another, isn't this a good trend for the future of Jinzhou?"

The more she spoke, the more she walked forward, almost on the verge of being side by side with Zhao Yichen.

An inadvertent smile quietly jumped on Zhao Yichen's cold face, and he chuckled, the woman in front of him who defended himself could not only see through his own thoughts, but also deeply understand his intentions, and even coincide with his thoughts.

Somehow, the sense of humiliation that was discovered and carefully thought about still exists today, but because the person who found it was Song Zhi, Zhao Yichen couldn't get angry at all, and he still had a sense of release in his heart.

There was a sudden retort from the audience.

"What about the soldiers who have already died in battle? They are also living people, do they want to step on their flesh and blood to win the future of Jinzhou? ”

Zhao Yichen lifted his forehead and glanced at the man coldly, and the person was immediately frightened and did not dare to make a sound.

"I am not deliberately warlike, in the face of bloody casualties, I have already buried them, and I have erected a monument for the souls of those who died in battle, and I will not let them die in vain, what objection do you have?"

The pedant met Qiu Yutong's eyes at this time, and he waved his hands again and said, "Your Majesty, no matter how old you are, you still don't fight, if Your Majesty insists on this, then step over the old corpse!" ”

"Don't be too entangled, pedant, you've been retired for many years, do you think I don't know who invited you out of the mountain? Do I have to tear this face in front of everyone? ”

Since Zhao Yichen personally disposed of Helan Kangnian, he was not as indecisive as before.

Some feelings can be kept, but if those feelings get in his way, it is not impossible to abandon them.

The pedant taught such an emperor by himself, he was relieved in his heart, and he also understood Zhao Yichen's ambition, but the unspoken love in his heart was like a weed blown by the spring breeze in the twilight years, growing wildly unscrupulously.
