...

Contrary to what Qin Hui thought, Zhao Mingcheng actually didn't want to bring Li Qingzhao back, and was even very afraid of bringing Li Qingzhao back.

For a long time, Zhao Mingcheng couldn't hold his head up in front of Li Qingzhao, and his husband was seriously depressed.

This also caused great psychological pressure on Zhao Mingcheng.

such as--

Not long after the two got married, Zhao Mingcheng went out and did not return. Li Qingzhao was lonely in the boudoir, and deeply missed her husband who had traveled far away. It was the Double Ninth Festival, and people missed their relatives a lot during the festive season, so he wrote the next song "Drunken Flower Yin" and sent it to Zhao Mingcheng to inform Zhao Mingcheng's own mood at that time.

Zhao Mingcheng was amazed after reading it.

At the same time, Zhao Mingcheng wanted to win again.

Zhao Mingcheng thanked the guests behind closed doors, forgot to sleep and eat for three days, and finally got fifty poems.

Zhao Mingcheng mixed his fifty poems with Li Qingzhao's poems, and took them to his friend Lu Defu for evaluation.

After savoring it, Lu Defu said, "Only three sentences are excellent."

Zhao Mingcheng hurriedly asked which three sentences it was, and Lu Defu replied: "It's impossible not to be ecstatic, the wind blows from the west, and people are thinner than yellow flowers."

After Zhao Mingcheng listened, his expression suddenly went on boasting.

Do you know why?

It turns out that "I can't help but ecstasy, the wind is blowing in the west, and people are thinner than yellow flowers" is exactly what Li Qingzhao wrote.

This incident touched Zhao Mingcheng a lot!

On the one hand, Zhao Mingcheng admired Li Qingzhao even more.

On the other hand, Zhao Mingcheng could no longer hold his head up in front of Li Qingzhao.

Even Zhao Mingcheng felt that the reason why he was infertile was also related to Li Qingzhao - because he couldn't even lift his big head in front of Li Qingzhao, let alone his small head.

Therefore, Zhao Mingcheng began to hide from Li Qingzhao—often going out instead of going home, taking Li Qingzhao to office without Li Qingzhao, going south without Li Qingzhao, etc...

Taking a step back, if this was in the past, it would be fine, the big deal, Zhao Mingcheng still regards Li Qingzhao as a bodhisattva and a Buddha as before.

But not now.

Zhao Mingcheng knew Li Qingzhao too well, and he knew that if Li Qingzhao knew that he had abandoned the city and fled, Li Qingzhao would have to write poems to scold him.

If that's the case, he, Zhao Mingcheng, will be infamous forever.

Moreover, Zhao Mingcheng is quite enjoying the life he is living now. Under the admiring eyes of his concubines, he reads and drinks every day, and is an official, carefree and happy.

Therefore, Zhao Mingcheng didn't want to and didn't dare to bring Li Qingzhao back.

Then again, Zhao Mingcheng was actually annoyed. If he hadn't abandoned the city and fled, he would have been able to continue his happy life before, and the image of a gentleman he had worked so hard to build over the years would not be ruined, and he didn't have to go north to do that now. A thankless negotiation!

The moment he left Jinling, looking back at Jinling, Zhao Mingcheng was full of emotions, and wanted to write a poem to express his annoyance at the moment.

But after searching for a long time, Zhao Mingcheng was unable to utter a single word, so he could only pretend to be heroic and said to the entourage: "Let's go!"

……

Bianliang imperial city, in the harem.

At this moment, Li Yan is taking all his concubines (the ones Li Yan has passed by and the women Li Yan has confirmed to be his concubines) to celebrate with a feast for thousands of people.

Li Yan personally participated in the command and design of this banquet, which has the flavor of an annual event for later generations—please forgive Li Yan, in the last life, the biggest feast that Li Yan participated in was the annual meeting held by the company, so Li Yan also It can only be done to this extent.

However, although compared with some grand ceremonies in later generations, Li Yan's banquet for thousands of people is a bit low, but now, he still bluffs many people.

The never-before-seen experience made almost all the participants feel novel and happy!
As a result, the entire harem is full of joy, whether it is concubines or court ladies, most of them are laughing and laughing.

The reason why Li Yan was so interested in holding a banquet for thousands of people today was because the current situation in Dazhong was so gratifying that Li Yan couldn't help but celebrate.

Just yesterday, Liu Kai and Han Shizhong came back with good news. Under Han'er's support, they finally regained Taiyuan, and took advantage of the trend to go northward, preparing to regain Hedong in one fell swoop, and then enter Yundi.

If this news can't make Li Yan like this, then the good news from Yue Fei will make Li Yan unable to hide his joy no matter what!
At the same time that Liu Qi and Han Shizhong came back with good news, Yue Fei also sent back good news-their right army had successfully recovered Pingzhou.

The Pingzhou mentioned here refers not only to Pingzhou, but to the three states of Pingluanying.

This matter has to start with Wu Jie.

At the beginning, Wu Jie planned to recover Yanyun and Pingzhou by himself.

It's a pity that Wu Jie had a bad start. He met Jin Guo's No.1 general Wanyan Xie, but Wanyan Xie also stopped him, and later was sent back to Liaodong by Wan Yanxie.

However, this does not mean that Wu Jie has made no contributions.

First of all, Wu Jie successfully held back the main force of the Jin army in Yandi and Pingzhou, and also forced Wanyan Xie to dispatch a lot of troops from Yandi and Pingzhou.

Secondly, in addition to leading the army to attack Jinzhou by land, Wu Jie also sent general Li Bao to attack Yingzhou by water.

There is no need to talk about Wu Jie's attack on Jinzhou, because Wanyan Xieye blocked it and failed.

However, Li Bao attacked Yingzhou from the waterway, but achieved unexpected results-because Yingzhou was relatively empty at that time, and Li Bao's attack was relatively sudden. Enter Yingzhou, and then stick to Yingzhou.

Later, Yue Fei led his army to the north, and after regaining Yizhou and Zhuozhou, he opened up the connection with Yingzhou.

After discussing with his generals and staff, Yue Fei decided not to attack Yanjing, but to take Luanzhou and Pingzhou first.

The reason why Yue Fei and the others made this decision was because after the Pingzhou Road was opened up, Liaodong and Yandi could be barely connected together. The key was that they would be able to supply the right army from the waterway at that time, and there would be no need to spend money from there. A large amount of manpower and financial resources were used to supply the right army by land. In this way, the right army can rest assured to recover Yanyun, and the strategic depth of the right army can be greatly expanded.

Based on these, after capturing Yizhou and Zhuozhou, the Right Route Army used Yingzhou as a pedal to attack Pingzhou and Luanzhou with all its strength.

It was also the luck of the right army. At that time, the Jin army's reinforcements had not yet reached Yandi, and Yue Fei sent Wang De and Li Yanxian to attack Pingzhou and Luanzhou respectively. As a result, they were defeated by the right army. Next, captured Pingzhou and Luanzhou.

At the same time, Wang Gui and Wu Ge followed Li Bao to attack Yuguan by water.

In that battle, Wang Gui and Wu Ge fought for three days and three nights and defeated most of the troops before they won the first pass in the world.

After Wu Jie learned of this, he decisively attacked again, personally led the army to penetrate Wan Yanxie and stayed behind to stop their Northeast Army (with the changes in Dazhong's territory, the original Liangshan West Army has become the current one. The Northeast Army of the Middle East) went out of the defense line of Liaodong, and then captured Jinzhou in one fell swoop.

In other words, Li Yan's territory in the north was finally able to barely connect and became a country worthy of the name.

Let me ask, how could Li Yan be unhappy in this situation, how could he not celebrate?
……

……

It's been five years since I got my driver's license, and I haven't touched a car once. Thinking about it, I'm really low and incompetent.

Forget it, let’s not talk about myself, reading is for fun, not for listening to me spreading negative energy.

So what... What I really want to say is that a friend knew that I had a driver's license, but he had no chance to drive. His car was deducted dozens of points, and his driver's license was not enough, so he asked me to deduct eleven points for him. .

This was done all day, and when it was over, he invited me to dinner again.

As a result, I came back too late and failed to write two chapters, only this one.

So, that's all for today.

Please forgive me!
