The Three Kingdoms began with the rescue of Mrs. Mi

In Chinese history, conquering the east and conquering the west was the most important way of expansion during the prosperous period of the Han dynasty.

The fertile black soil outside the customs to the east and the Silk Road to the west are all coveted places. In comparison, going directly to the north is the vast desert, followed by ice fields and snow fields, which are not very attractive to the Han people. The Indochina Peninsula is a barren land where mosquitoes and miasma breed, and it cannot arouse the interest of the Han people.

In Liu Feng's overall vision for the unification of the Han Dynasty, the eastward conquests outside the customs and the westward conquests outside the territory are both important deployments for future territorial expansion. As for who comes first, it depends on future changes in the situation.

For example: Sun He and Lu Dai fled to the peninsula. If they kept their own and did not come to invade the Han border, Liu Feng would not mind keeping them, which would be regarded as giving Sun Shangxiang a face.

But if Sun He's descendants had ambitions, or colluded with the Japanese, posing a threat to the border counties of Han, then Liu Feng would order the army to march eastward and completely subdue the peninsula.

As for the Japanese, they have painful memories for later generations. Liu Feng's idea is one, kill and exterminate the family.

As for what to say about him in the history books, that was out of his consideration.

The same is true of the Western Expedition to the Western Regions.

Liangzhou is the state closest to the west among the nine states in the world.

Its location includes the Hexi Corridor and a part of Longyou. From a broader perspective, the entire Western Region is actually under the jurisdiction of Liangzhou, because the Han Dynasty established the Western Region Protectorate in Guohuang and Loulan, which belonged to the governor of Liangzhou.

After the Xiongnu moved westward, the Western Regions were in a period of melee among various ethnic groups. The Tuyuhun, Gaoche, Bald Xianbei and other tribes ebbed and flowed, forming a situation of mutual separatism. Until the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the rise of Tubo on the plateau, and prosperity Tang formed a situation of two strong against hegemony.

In other words, whoever seizes the opportunity in the Western Regions first will win the initiative in the future battle for hegemony.

After meeting and discussing with the courtiers, Liu Feng comforted Chen Zhi, Huang Chong and others with words. As for the way to persuade Guo Huai, Liu Feng had already found out, that is to win Guo Fu first, and then persuade Guo Huai.

In the Weiyang Palace.

The red candle was burning and rattling, Guo Fu's face was rosy, she was lying on the ground unable to move, the situation just now made her anxious and short of breath, almost out of breath.

"Your Majesty, is the concubine dead?"

Liu Feng glanced at the immobile Guo Fu, smiled and squeezed the thin waist, patted and said: "Madam, get up, I have something important to entrust."

"Immediately write a letter and tell Guo Boji that I will not give up in the Western Regions, and I will definitely command troops to march westward and wipe out the barbarians. However, before that, I hope that Longyou and Liangzhou can settle down first. Only Liangzhou Only when the state is well managed will we have the guarantee to leave the Western Regions."

"The world is vast, and there is a lot to do. The future of the Guo family is not just a border guard." Liu Feng made no secret of his ambition in front of Guo Fu.

Liu Feng knew Guo Fu's desire to conceive a dragon species.

It is also a good thing for Liu Feng to have an extra son guarding the border. The Guo family is of Han origin. Compared with Ma Yunlu's, the blood is much purer, and it is easier to be accepted by the Han people in Liangzhou.

Liu Feng's clear statement to the Guo family made Guo Fu, who was eager to revitalize the Guo family, very happy. After the merger of the Xiping Guo family and the Taiyuan Guo family, the Xiping family gained the upper hand, but this was only due to the fact that Guo Fu was favored by Liu Feng. a relationship.

If she wants to become a direct branch for a long time, Guo Fu understands that she must show greater ability, otherwise, sooner or later she will be overtaken by Guo Huai's branch.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this concubine is writing a letter to my clan brother. The Guo family is willing to guard Xiliang for the great man, open up the Western Regions, and use it as a barrier." Guo Fu happily put on her clothes and got up, wanting to go to the desk to write.

In the past few years by Liu Feng's side, she has also seen clearly that with her status, it is not easy to seek status in the palace. Only by relying on the big tree of the Guo family can the power of the next generation be guaranteed.

Seeing Guo Fu get up in a hurry, Liu Feng didn't even have time to put on the light veil to cover her up, so he also got up, went to the study, and accompanied her to light up the night battle.

While slurping sentences, the two discussed what kind of posture could guarantee the greatest probability of conception. Before they knew it, they had already passed the Ten Thousand Mountains in a light boat.

By the time Guo Fu finished writing the letter, it was already broad daylight.

In order to bring Guo's heart back, Liu Feng also tried his best to sow seeds this time. According to his judgment, Guo Fu is very likely to conceive. Of course, the specific situation will have to wait a month or two before the imperial doctor checks the pulse. Only after that.

Everything in Chang'an was gradually straightened out through the integration and communication between Liu Feng and Guo Fu.

Unknowingly, the first month of Zhenguan's sixth year has arrived, and Mi Zhen was waiting for Liu Feng to go in Luoyang, but she couldn't wait, and she couldn't help feeling anxious.

"Your Majesty, you know the allusion that you only see the newcomers laughing, but not the old ones crying." In Feige's letter to Liu Feng, Mi Zhen rarely used an angry tone to complain about Liu Feng's absurd act of indulging in Guo Fu's beauty.

In her opinion, the state of Jin has not yet been destroyed, but Liu Feng lingers in Chang'an and does not want to return. If she does not persuade, when will the big man be able to unify Kyushu?

When Mi Zhen got angry, Guo Fu fell silent.

She knew very well that if Mi Zhen was in Chang'an, there would be no possibility of her being the only favorite.

When Liu Feng saw Mi Zhen's letter, he couldn't help shaking his head. His main purpose of staying in Chang'an was to appease the officials and generals who stayed in Chang'an, and to share with Guo Fu, the former Queen Mother of Wei, the experience of conceiving a child. , I didn't expect someone to break the news to Mrs. Mi.

"Here we come, let's set off and go back to Luoyang." Madam Mi, the adoptive mother, called. Liu Feng did not dare to neglect. After becoming the emperor, he and Mi Zhen had a closer contact, and he also paid more attention to the relationship between the two of them than before. relation.

Luoyang.

In the palace, after Mi Zhen sent out the flying letter, her mood went up and down. She was looking forward to seeing the letter from Liu Feng, but also thinking that it would be best if Liu Feng didn't see the letter.

The reason for this is because she has been quite unconfident recently.

In terms of age, Mi Zhen is already quite old. In this era, many women who were at the same time as her have also passed away.

But she is still alive and well, the disease seems to have nothing to do with her, even Mi Zhen didn't notice many signs of natural aging in her body.

When the maid was serving, the water rushing through her body made her feel trembling.

what on earth is it?

Mi Zhen didn't quite understand it before, but after Xia Houjuan slipped her mouth once, she suddenly realized that it was Liu Feng who used the method of reconciling yin and yang when he was happy, so that their bodies had different auras .

Longevity, long life.

This was originally a luxury, but now, because of Liu Feng, it has become a reality.

When Mi Zhen thought of this, she missed her even more.
