After leaving this village, Zhao Changqing has not spoken.

Faced with the inquiries of the soldiers under his command, he just nodded indifferently in response.

Even Daji's various teasing of him could not arouse his interest.

In the next part of the journey, the officers and men of the whole army looked a little lifeless.

In the final analysis, the reason is because they have seen a somewhat taciturn scene in the king.

The army marched to the valley where Li Cunxiao and Xiang Yu worked together to kill Xu Fengyun, Zhao Changqing got off the imperial palace and asked Zhao Yundao: "Is the mountain peak that has been cut in half over there caused by the original war?"

This is the first sentence that Zhao Changqing has said in the past two days.

Zhao Yun was a little stunned at first, and when he really heard that it was the king who was speaking, he said with some joy: "The last general doesn't know, but the last general did hear that the big battle was fought extremely fiercely, known as a landslide and a crack." ”

Zhao Changqing sighed: "Xu Fengyun is also a generation of heroes, but he has to go against me! If he doesn't plan to go against me, in fact, what can I do if I make him a king with a different surname?"

Zhao Yun said: "Maybe people have their own ambitions, people like Xu Fengyun will not be depressed for a long time." ”

Zhao Changqing said with a smile: "In the whole world, you are the only one who dares to say such a sentence to me, do you know what I have been thinking about these days?"

Zhao Yun was puzzled: "The last general has been thinking about this for the past few days, Your Majesty, it seems that he has never been a sentimental person. Zhao Changqing said helplessly: "But this time, it is indeed sentimental." I've been wondering if the people in the world would be better off if I lived in a lonely place. ”

Zhao Yun frowned and said: "This question, didn't Your Majesty already have a decision in your heart before this? The last general once remembered that His Majesty said that the countries in the world are constantly strife, causing the people to live in poverty, and only by stopping the war can the war that has lasted for thousands of years in the world be quelled." ”

Zhao Changqing said: "However, in the past few years, just because of the war that our Wei State took the initiative to provoke, the number of dead and wounded has been millions, and the total number of casualties is estimated to exceed the sum of the wars between countries for a hundred years, or even more." ”

Zhao Yun thought about it carefully, and could only say like this: "Your Majesty, we have no way out, aren't we? Hegemony and stability have always been two extremely contradictory points.

"The state of Qin, the second died. Zhao Changqing's tone was a little heavy.

Zhao Yunzuo said: "The last general firmly believes that my Great Wei will not follow in the footsteps of the Qin State. ”

Zhao Changqing said abruptly: "I also believe that some things must be solved in our generation, and we can't leave the problem in the next generation." Otherwise, who can say for sure what will happen in the future? I thought, even the first emperor of the year never thought that one day, the huge dynasty that he had worked so hard to build would completely collapse. ”

Zhao Yun strongly agreed with this principle, "Your Majesty, do you think that in addition to the Tang Kingdom and the Song Kingdom, what other problems will we encounter?"

Zhao Changqing said: "There are three great problems in front of us, the rivers and lakes, the aliens, and the demon clan, if we don't solve all these three problems, even if we dominate the world, I will not be able to sleep and eat." ”

Northern Liang Frontier.

Zhao Hongji was dressed in heavy armor and followed Chen Qingzhi to patrol the border.

Along the way, take in the scenery outside Beiliangsai.

"Your Highness, I have some news for you, Your Majesty will return to Dabeiliang in a few days. On the way back, Chen Qingzhi said to Zhao Hongji.

Zhao Hongji was slightly stunned, "Father is coming, why is my father coming?"

Chen Qingzhi said with a smile: "No matter what you say, Your Majesty is not worried about your son, so I want to come to Beiliang to see you! This is also a good thing for Beiliang." Recently, the people of Beiliang have been very impetuous, and they have infiltrated a lot of spies from enemy countries, if His Majesty comes here, it should deter some Xiaoxiao. ”

Zhao Hongji said uneasily: "Those so-called secret agents of the Song Kingdom, will they affect the safety of my father and emperor?"

Chen Qingzhi shook his head and said: "This Your Highness doesn't have to worry too much, according to Your Majesty's words, unless it is some old monster who has lived for thousands of years and can kill Your Majesty, no one in the world can be Your Majesty's opponent." ”

"Father, so strong?"

Chen Qingzhi's words once again refreshed Zhao Hongji's cognition.

He understood very little about Zhao Changqing.

I didn't pay much attention to it before, but now, when I listen to people's words, I slightly bring two sentences about my father's bravery, as for how strong it is, he doesn't know.

Chen Qingyi galloped on his horse and said loudly: "I know that even Xu Fengyun, the Emperor of Beiliang, who was known as the enemy of 10,000 people, is not His Majesty's opponent, in fact, over the years, the number of times I have seen His Majesty make a move has become less and less, but every time I make a shot, it can always make people astonished." ”

After returning to the camp, Chen Qingzhi suddenly received a message.

It is said that the Song State suddenly had the idea of increasing troops to the frontier.

Two days later, he received news again.

The Song State prepared to increase the number of troops to the frontier by 300,000.

Chen Qingzhi urgently summoned all the soldiers to discuss the military situation.

In the end, a conclusion was drawn that this action of the Song State was most likely for the emperor's northern tour.

In order to prevent the Song State from making a temporary attack, Chen Qingzhi could only choose not to let the emperor come to northern Xinjiang.

For this matter, Chen Qingzhi deliberately went to Lingzhou City to wait for the emperor to come in person.

When Zhao Hongji saw Chen Qingzhi leaving the camp, he asked for details.

knew that he was for his father's northern tour.

Back in town.

Zhao Hongji said to Zhao Qingwen: "My father has come to Beiliang, and my father-in-law has also come." ”

Zhao Qingwen was a little surprised, "My father is here too?"

Zhao Hongji nodded, "But my father may not come to Northern Xinjiang, if you miss your father-in-law, I will send someone to send you to Lingzhou City." ”

Zhao Qingwen said: "Since you have come to Beiliang, why don't you come to Beijiang to have a look?"

Zhao Hongji explained: "The Song army knew the news that his father was going to tour the north, and sent 300,000 troops to gather on the frontier, in order to avoid war, Uncle Qingzhi has gone to Lingzhou City to wait for his father's arrival, and he doesn't want his father to come here." ”

Zhao Qingwen said: "Your Majesty's safety is more important than Sheji, and Your Majesty should not be allowed to come to Northern Xinjiang to take risks again." ”

Zhao Hongji said abruptly: "That's right, tomorrow I will order someone to send you to Lingzhou City, right? They finally came to Beiliang for a trip, you should indeed meet them." ”

"What about you?" asked Zhao Qingwen.

Zhao Hongji opened his mouth and said: "I plan to stay in the frontier, because of this matter, there may be a lot of abnormalities in the Wei army recently, and it is the time for heroes to come into play, so I must stay in the frontier." ”

Zhao Qingwen was worried about her husband's safety and was reluctant to go to Lingzhou City, so she said: "If you don't leave, I won't leave." ”

Zhao Hongji wanted to speak and stopped: "But you and your father-in-law haven't seen each other for many days."

Zhao Qingwen said: "My father can see me at any time, and I am not in a hurry." ”

Zhao Hongji nodded and said, "Okay, let's stay in the frontier, and when the New Year is closed this year, we will return to the capital and get together with our families." ”
