"The Empress Dowager of Western Xia is also dead!"

The world was in an uproar.

"Empress Dowager Xiaoliang is dead!"

The hundred officials of the Great Song Dynasty couldn't help but be stunned, they couldn't believe the news, the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang was extremely aggressive, and there were repeated wars with the Great Song Dynasty during her reign, and now she died at a young age.

"Get information now!" Zhao Xu ordered.

However, when more details spread, the Song dynasty and the opposition were in an uproar, just because the death of the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang was too shocking.

She did not die in the Liang rebellion, nor did she die in the seizure of power by the little emperor, but was given to death by the Liao State with a cup of poisoned wine.

The envoys of other countries went to a country and directly used poisoned wine to kill the queen mother who listened to the government of another country, which is simply a strange news that has never been seen since ancient times.

"The queen mothers of the two countries died almost at the same time?"

The people of the world couldn't help but compare the Empress Dowager Gao of the Great Song Dynasty and the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang of the Western Xia, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The Empress Dowager Gao of the Great Song Dynasty was still dead after being seized power, and when the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang of the Western Xia was in power, she was poisoned to death by poisonous wine, and she was poisoned to death by the envoy of the Liao State with a glass of poisonous wine.

The seemingly different experiences of the two queen mothers have a common reason behind them, that is, the evil consequences of listening to the government.

"The Liao State can poison the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang by sending an envoy? It's incredible, isn't it? Lu Dafang couldn't believe the news.

"The tree is falling and scattered! The Liang family has been destroyed, not to mention that the Empress Dowager Xiao Liang is difficult to support alone. Zhang Dan shook his head.

Although the death of the Empress Dowager Xiao Liang is incredible, after the Empress Dowager Xiao Liang destroyed the Liang family, she has already bought hidden dangers, and now the Liang family only has the bare tree of the Empress Dowager Xiao Liang, and naturally no one avenges it.

……………………

"Western Xia sues for peace!"

The funeral of the Empress Dowager Gao had just ended, and the body of the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang was not cold, and the Liaoxia envoys came to Kaifeng again to discuss the peace of Song and Xia.

The Western Xia royal family and party nobles immediately supported the little emperor Li Qianshun to govern in person, and the Liao State quickly arranged for Li Qianshun and Yelu Nanxian to marry, and the emperor and queen ruled together.

Although Li Qianshun was young, he was suppressed by the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang for a long time, and developed a precocious character.

However, Li Qianshun understood that if he wanted to revive Western Xia, there was another crucial factor, that is, to restore relations with the Great Song Dynasty as soon as possible.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, Xixia surrendered, this is God bless the Great Song!"

Lu Dafang was overjoyed, he has always been conservative, and he loves to be courteous, and Xixia's pursuit of peace greatly satisfied his vanity.

Fan Zheng frowned and said: "Lord Lu can't help but be happy too early, the Western Xia has married the Liao State, which means that it has completely depended on the Liao State, and it is probably not sincere to negotiate peace with the Great Song Dynasty, you must know that the Song Xia has just experienced three major wars, I am afraid that the Western Xia can be willing to surrender to the Great Song Dynasty." ”

Lu Dafang said proudly: "Fan Taicheng's words are wrong, it is the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang who has been attacking the Great Song Dynasty, and now the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang has passed away, and the opportunity for peace in the Song and Xia has been restored, as Fan Taicheng said, the Western Xia and the Liao State are friendly with the two countries, if the Great Song Dynasty does not release goodwill, I am afraid that it will only completely push the Western Xia to the Liao State." ”

What Lu Dafang has always advocated is the way of balance, this kind of thinking is quite popular in the court, and it is this kind of thinking that makes the Western Xia come to the right and left, so that the Western Xia repeatedly survives the crisis, and after being strong, it will once again attack the Great Song Dynasty.

Zhang Dian frowned and said, "What about pushing it to the Liao State?" Liaoxia was already embarrassed, the last war, the two countries jointly sent troops, if it weren't for the Great Song Dynasty with the earth-shaking thunder and just the return of Tong Guanshui Division, I am afraid that the Great Song Dynasty would be attacked by the enemy. ”

The officials of the New Party echoed one after another, and the last battle was the most dangerous battle in the Great Song Dynasty, but fortunately, the Great Song Dynasty had a thrilling escape, which also greatly increased the confidence of the Great Song Dynasty.

Lu Dafang tried his best to defend: "This time the Western Xia is quite sincere, Li Qianshun not only apologized, but also dismissed the military power of the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang's cronies Wei Ming Ah Wu and Renduo Baozhong, and even executed the two generals who plotted for the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang and disturbed the Song border. ”

Zhang Dian frowned, the little emperor of the Western Xia was so generous that he was indeed quite surprised, and the punishment of the generals who infested the Great Song Dynasty in the Western Xia was enough to show the determination of the Western Xia to make peace.

Fan Zheng sneered: "Do you really think that Li Qianshun punished the Western Xia generals for the sake of the peace of the Great Song Dynasty? It was just to learn the lessons of the dictatorship of the Western Xia relatives, strengthen the imperial power, and eradicate the cronies of the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang. ”

Zhao Xu couldn't help but suddenly feel that he almost fell for Li Qianshun.

Lu Dafang insisted: "No matter what Li Qianshun thinks, as long as he punishes the generals who attack the Song Dynasty, and wants to attack the Song Dynasty in the future, the morale of the army will inevitably be shaken, and the Western Xia will no longer be a threat to the Great Song Dynasty, and Li Qianshun agrees to negotiate peace this time, no need for New Year's coins, just restore the field." ”

The officials of the Manchu Dynasty were suddenly moved, if the threat of Western Xia was eliminated, the benefits to the Great Song Dynasty would be self-evident, so why would they not be wrong.

Even Zhao Xu fell into thinking and thinking about the gains and losses.

Fan Zheng resolutely objected: "The official family must not relax their vigilance against the Western Xia, the Western Xia was split from the Great Song Dynasty, and the emperors of all dynasties have the responsibility to take it back. ”

Lu Dafang angrily reprimanded: "Last time, Liaoxia jointly attacked the Great Song Dynasty, each with a ghost, the Great Song Dynasty only faced the Western Xia, so that the Liao State retreated without a fight, if the Great Song Dynasty no longer won over the Western Xia, the next time it will face the Liaoxia Concerted Forces, how to face the Great Song Dynasty at that time." ”

Fan Zheng said fearlessly: "There is a thunderstorm in the sky, the Great Song Dynasty is not afraid of Liaoxia, and according to the Great Roundabout Strategy, the Great Song Dynasty needs to wait for the opportunity to recover the Western Xia. ”

"Earthquake Thunder!"

Hearing Fan Zheng mention the earth-shaking thunder, the hundred officials of the Manchu Dynasty suddenly became bold, and the appearance of the earth-shaking thunder directly made up for the dilemma of the weakness of the Great Song Dynasty's armed forces, and made the Song army's combat effectiveness increase in a straight line.

Zhao Xu also nodded slightly, and finally tended to continue the cold war against Western Xia.

"Although the country is big, the belligerent will die, and if the war resumes, the Great Song Dynasty will be overwhelmed! Defeat without a fight. Lu Dafang reprimanded angrily.

He found that since Fan Zheng appeared in the court, he always instigated the official war, but the thunder sounded, the gold was ten thousand taels, and the Great Song Dynasty won a great victory, but the Great Song Dynasty was burdened with a large number of national debts, and if it could make peace in Liaoxia, it would also be a rare respite for the Great Song Dynasty.

Fan Zheng retorted when he heard this: "Although the country is big, the belligerent will die, although the world forgets that the war will be dangerous, Lu Xianggong blindly seeks peace, and the Western Xia has not yet attacked, so it will be cowardly before the war, once it encounters a war, I am afraid that the Great Song Dynasty will be really dangerous." ”

Lu Dafang also wanted to scold Fan Zheng, but Fan Zheng continued: "And the little emperor of Western Xia, Li Qianshun, is only twelve years old, and now he is just twelve years old, and he has wantonly purged the cronies of the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang in the Western Xia army, and the country is still unstable, so what courage does he have to go to the Great Song Dynasty, the minister of the state will not even be afraid of the threat of a twelve-year-old little doll!" ”

In the face of Fan Zheng's irony, Lu Dafang suddenly blushed, he also regarded Xixia as the previous Xixia, but forgot that today's Xixia is different from the past, its emperor is only twelve years old, and it is still difficult to sit on the throne, how dare he gather a large army to attack the Great Song Dynasty.

Zhao Xu looked at Lu Dafang and couldn't help showing a trace of disappointment, Lu Dafang was too weak, and he was bent on making peace in the face of Liaoxia every time, which was very inconsistent with his ambition to dominate the world.

Lu Dafang still didn't know: "But Liaoxia came together to envoy, if he rejected Xixia, how to explain to Liao." ”

Fan Zheng said without hesitation: "What's so difficult about this? It is said that according to the covenant between the Great Song Dynasty and the Liao State, the Song and Liao jointly operated the overland Silk Road, and the reopening of the field with the Western Xia violated the Song-Liao Covenant. ”

"Wonderful! In this way, although the Liao State agreed to reconcile with the Western Xia in order to win over the Western Xia, it was not willing to give up the huge interests of the Silk Road, as long as the Great Song Dynasty insisted on the Song-Liao Alliance, not only could it continue the Cold War against the Western Xia, but also could divide the Liaoxia. Su Song's case was amazing.

The overland Silk Road has a million benefits every year, and how can the Liao State be willing to share it with the Western Xia, otherwise it will not be Yelu Nanxian but Yelu Nanyin who will marry the Western Xia.

As long as the Great Song Dynasty insisted on the Song-Liao Alliance, how could the Western Xia not have suspicions about the Liao State.

"Accurate!" Zhao Xu solemnly ordered.

At present, the Great Song Dynasty directly rejected the request of the Western Xia to reopen the field on the grounds of adhering to the Song-Liao Alliance, but in response to the invitation of the Western Xia to negotiate peace, the two sides agreed to temporarily suspend the troops on the basis of the existing occupation limits.

The Liaoxia envoy returned in vain.

…………………………

Fan Zheng was responsible for receiving the Liaoxia envoys, and was also responsible for the Ordnance Supervisor and the Royal Bank, not to mention the important task of reviving the doctor's family, and he went out before dawn every day when he was busy with government affairs.

It's just dawning!

The sound of Fan Zheng getting up woke Li Qingzhao up.

"It's still early, you can sleep a little longer!" Fan Zheng looked at Li Qingzhao, who was sleepy-eyed, and said softly.

"Suddenly, I saw a strange willow color, and the penitent husband was looking for a marquis! Now the concubine finally understands the meaning of this sentence. Li Qingzhao's eyes were hazy, and he hugged Fan Zheng and was unwilling to let go.

Fan Zheng comforted: "After the Liaoxia envoy leaves, the Great Song Dynasty will usher in a long period of peace, and when the time comes, I will accompany you well for my husband." ”

"Hmm!"

Li Qingzhao snorted and nodded imperceptibly.

After Fan Zheng left, Li Qingzhao no longer felt sleepy and began to get up and write operas. With the wide spread of opera, its status as a third-generation literary genre was more and more accepted by the literati of the Great Song Dynasty.

This time, she is going to compile the most classic "Zhao's Orphan" in the history books into a drama, and she believes that Zhao's orphan will definitely become an instant hit as soon as it comes out.

However, she used to write several times, but her thoughts were completely confused, and before she knew it, it was already dawn.

"Miss, why do you get up so early?" Xiaolian yawned, and saw that Li Qingzhao was still lighting the lamp and staying up late to write operas, and couldn't help but worry.

"My husband went to the court, and I couldn't sleep left and right, so I wrote some." Li Qingzhao put down the pen in his hand.

Xiaolian stepped forward to sort out the manuscript and said: "Nowadays, many literati have joined the opera, and there is no shortage of scripts in Liyuan, so Miss doesn't need to work so hard. ”

Xiaolian looked at Li Qingzhao's emaciated body and said worriedly.

"It doesn't matter! It just so happens that today is a good day, you accompany me to the maternity and children's hospital, and I made an appointment with Zhang Youniang to see her body today. Li Qingzhao stood up and said.

"To the maternity and children's hospital?" Xiaolian couldn't help but be stunned.

As Li Qingzhao's personal maid, she naturally knows Li Qingzhao's heart disease, that is, the young lady and her aunt have been married for two years, and they have never been pregnant.

You must know that Li Qingzhao is not an ordinary young woman who marries early, when she married Fan Zheng, she was already eighteen years old, and Fan Zheng is also a young man who is healthy and proficient in medical skills, not to mention that over the years, Fan Zheng and Li Qingzhao have never been separated, and they have never been pregnant.

Although the old man and the old lady did not urge, and Fan Zheng did not have any complaints, even Master Li, who had recently married Yang Jie, was already pregnant, and her stomach had not moved, how could Li Qingzhao not be anxious.

On the same day, Li Qingzhao and Lian'er took a carriage out of Fanfu and came to the Women's and Children's Hospital.

The famous Li Qingzhao came to the Women's and Children's Hospital to see a doctor, and Zhang Youniang naturally didn't dare to slack off, not to mention that Li Qingzhao had another identity, the wife of the evil doctor Fan Zheng.

"I don't know what kind of illness everyone Li wants to see?" Zhang Youniang took Li Qingzhao to the infirmary and asked solemnly.

"Infertility." Li Qingzhao hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said.

"Ahh

Zhang Youniang couldn't help but exclaim, looking at Li Qingzhao in disbelief.

Li Qingzhao sighed faintly: "The concubine and Fan Taicheng have been married for more than two years, but they are not pregnant yet. ”

Zhang Youniang's face suddenly became solemn when she heard this, carefully examined Li Qingzhao, and asked solemnly: "I don't know about the husband and wife of Fan Taicheng and Li everyone?" ”

Li Qingzhao's face turned red and said, "It's okay?" ”

Zhang Youniang nodded and said, "Everyone Li is Fan Taicheng's family, so it must be clear that the best date for a woman to conceive?" ”

Since Fan Zheng used the method of breeding pigs to let Zhao Xu, who was poisoned by cotton poison in his body, get a son and two daughters, the best time to conceive is not a secret in the doctor's family.

"The concubine knows!" Li Qingzhao said in her heart, not only did she know, but she also dedicated to having sex at the best time to conceive every time, but she still didn't get pregnant after two years.

Zhang Youniang couldn't help but sigh: "Everyone Li knows that if a normal fertile couple has not been pregnant for a year, it is infertility, and Li and Fan Taicheng have been two years. ”

Fan Zheng and Li are at the right age to conceive, and they are monogamous, plus they know the best time to conceive, so it is obvious that one of them must have a physical problem.

"But the concubine is infertile?" Li Qingzhao asked eagerly.

Zhang Youniang shook her head and said: "There are many reasons for physical infertility, for example, the husband and wife are too young, both men and women may be infertile, or they do not have sex at the best time to conceive, and there are also infertility for a long time and they can suddenly get pregnant. ”

Li Qingzhao's face changed, although Zhang Youniang did not say it explicitly, it was obvious that she was more likely to be infertile.

Li Qingzhao gritted his teeth and said: "If it is said that the concubine's body is infertile, is there a cure?" ”

Zhang Youniang couldn't help sighing, and in the face of the patient's inquiry, she could only tell the truth: "With the current medical skills, there is no medicine, only the will of God!" ”

Li Qingzhao stumbled suddenly, she and Fan Zhengyou became lovers and finally became married, and they came together after a lot of hardships, but they didn't expect to be jealous again, so that she couldn't have children.

"Thank you, Doctor Zhang!"

Li Qingzhao's face turned pale and he got up to say goodbye.
