That day, Zhang Xiaochuan went to visit Liu E, and there, he met Zhao Dechang. "What, you're a little bolder today, dare to come in broad daylight?" Zhao Dechang was originally afraid that Emperor Taizong would know about the secret hiding of Liu E, so he did his best to keep things secret, and then secret. In order to prevent accidents, Zhao Dechang was not careless at all, he never dared to appear here in the daytime easily. Therefore, when he saw it, Zhang Xiaochuan immediately asked him in surprise. Zhao Dechang faced his anger, just smiled slightly, and did not answer.

"You haven't seen the prince soon. At this time, Zhang Xiaochuan was still wondering, and Liu E had already covered her mouth and laughed. She smiled so happily, without any cover-up, this was the first time Zhang Xiaochuan had seen her. "Prince, where is the prince?" How did the prince come here, of course Zhang Xiaochuan didn't know what was going on. I saw Zhao Dechang and Liu E looking at each other, they were laughing all the time, and they looked so happy that they were enviable. Zhang Xiaochuan instantly understood, he patted the back of his head and said. "Is King Xiang made the crown prince?" Zhao Dechang nodded at him with a smile, he looked extremely excited, and he was obviously trying to restrain himself, trying to return himself to a peaceful state.

"Weichen see the prince, see the princess. Zhang Xiaochuan was also sincerely happy for them, and he deliberately teased them while saluting them. "Brother Xiaochuan, we will still be good brothers in the future, let's call each other brothers!" "How can that work? In the future, what if you become the emperor?" "When we become the emperor, we are still brothers!" Of course, Zhao Dechang will also understand Zhang Xiaochuan's worries, after all, he is destined to be the "Ninth Five-Year Honor" in the future. Thinking that he would inevitably share hardships with Zhang Xiaochuan in the future, he immediately began to appease him. "When the time comes, don't forget my good brother, I will be very content. Zhang Xiaochuan was half-joking, and half-made said to Zhao Dechang seriously. Liu E looked at them and laughed, unable to hide too much excitement and joy.

Zhao Dechang ranked third, and according to the tradition of the eldest son inheriting the throne, Zhao Dechang was not qualified. So, why was Zhao Dechang suddenly made the crown prince? It turned out that Zhao Dechang's eldest brother had lost his mind and had not improved for many years. Zhao Dechang's second brother, who had a weak life, fell ill and died soon after he was made the crown prince. Although Zhao Dechang is not the eldest son, in terms of seniority, this time, he is the only one. After being forced to separate from Liu E, Liu E not only practiced qin, chess, calligraphy and painting diligently, but also strongly recommended Zhao Dechang. The most difficult to accept the grace of the beauty, Zhao Dechang loves Liu E deeply, of course, he obeys his words. On the one hand, they miss each other deeply, and on the other hand, they encourage each other to move forward. Zhao Dechang once again proved the greatness of love with practical actions. After a period of hard work, Zhao Dechang's studies have made great progress. Emperor Taizong is looking for the best candidate for the crown prince. In the face of Emperor Taizong's investigation, Zhao Dechang was quick in thinking, able to speak well, and answered fluently. Unexpectedly, after not seeing him for many days, Zhao Dechang would have such an amazing performance. Emperor Taizong was very happy, felt that there was a successor, and was relieved, so he announced the new Zhao Dechang as the crown prince.

Zhao Dechang became the prince, and the happiest one was, of course, Liu E. Zhao Dechang became the crown prince, of course, he will be the emperor in the future, only in this way can he have a bright future. Thinking about this, Liu E always closed her mouth with joy, because she felt that she had more hope.

Zhao Dechang can become the crown prince, and Liu E really contributes a lot. First of all, this is inseparable from her diligent exhortation to Zhao Dechang. Secondly, Liu E is also a virtuous helper, quite able to give advice to Zhao Dechang.

Once, a large number of refugees came to the capital. As a result of natural disasters, these refugees have been displaced, without a place to live, and they are living in extreme hardship due to lack of food and clothing. These refugees flocked to the capital, causing a lot of impact, and to a certain extent, also affecting the social stability of the capital. The alert Liu E was unusually sensitive to the opportunity. So, Liu E did not hesitate to mobilize Zhao Dechang and asked him to appease the refugees immediately. Following Liu E's suggestion, Zhao Dechang built a straw hut for the refugees outside the city, and organized wealthy merchants in the capital to give them food and clothing. With the help of Zhao Dechang and others, the lives of these refugees were soon on the right track. Later, this matter reached the ears of Emperor Taizong. Emperor Taizong praised Zhao Dechang and praised him for doing a good job, and he grew up and knew that he cared about national affairs. Since then, the emperor has already had the idea of making Zhao Dechang the crown prince.

After that, Zhang Xiaochuan also told Zhao Dechang about the Khitan trip. Zhang Xiaochuan also did not forget to remind Zhao Dechang that the Khitan soldiers were strong and ambitious, and they had the heart to annex China for a long time. "Brother Xiaochuan doesn't know, not long ago, the Khitan has changed the name of the country to Da Liao, Yelu Longxu has been proclaimed emperor, their wolf ambitions have been revealed, what you say, I will definitely report to my father. ”

Zhao Dechang met with Emperor Taizong and told him about the Liao State, "The Liao State has always been eyeing our Great Song Dynasty and constantly implementing the policy of strengthening the army, we must prepare as soon as possible! "I've been waiting for the right time, and I'm preparing to fight against Liao. "Fighting against Liao, is it true that my father wants to take the initiative to attack?" "Well, for many years, my Great Song Dynasty has been quite passive. This time, I must strike preemptively, and use a thunderous blow to catch him off guard, so as to avenge the revenge of the year. ”

It turned out that when he was conquering the Northern Han Dynasty, Emperor Taizong personally conquered Taiyuan and went down in a battle. After defeating the Northern Han, he also defeated the reinforcements sent by the Khitan. This incident was very encouraging to Emperor Taizong, which made him have a certain degree of blind confidence in his military strength. After the fall of the Northern Han Dynasty, Emperor Taizong took in a large number of generals, soldiers and property. In this situation, Emperor Taizong wanted to take advantage of the victory of the Northern Expedition to the land of thistle. However, to Emperor Taizong's surprise, in the Battle of the Gaoliang River, the Song army was defeated and lost, and Emperor Taizong was only spared. Emperor Taizong fled to Zhuozhou alone and secretly escaped back in a donkey cart. This matter has always been a dead knot in Emperor Taizong's heart, and he can't forget it or untie it. Emperor Taizong believed that this incident was a great shame for his life, and he made up his mind that he must be ashamed. For many years, Emperor Taizong has been fighting hard. After all these years of preparation, it was just right for the new lord of Liao to be established, and Emperor Taizong felt that the time was ripe, so he was ready to attack Liao on a large scale.
