Chapter 339 Li Qingzhao’s Infertility

"The Queen Mother of Xixia is also dead!"

The world was suddenly in uproar.

"Queen Mother Xiaoliang is dead!"

All the officials in the Song Dynasty were stunned and couldn't believe the news. Empress Dowager Xiaoliang was extremely aggressive. During her reign, she had many wars with the Song Dynasty. Now she died at such a young age.

"Search for information immediately!" Zhao Xu ordered.

However, when more details spread, the Song Dynasty was in an uproar because the death of Empress Dowager Xiaoliang was too shocking.

She did not die because of Liang's rebellion, nor did she die when the little emperor seized power, but was given a glass of poisoned wine by the Liao Kingdom.

An envoy from another country went to a country and directly used poisonous wine to kill the queen mother of another country who was listening behind the curtain. This was a strange thing that had never happened since ancient times.

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

People all over the world couldn't help but compare Empress Dowager Gao of the Song Dynasty and Empress Dowager Xiaoliang of Xixia, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Empress Dowager Gao of the Song Dynasty still died after being deprived of power. However, when Empress Dowager Xiaoliang of Xixia was in power, she was poisoned to death by poisonous wine, and was poisoned to death by a cup of poisonous wine by an envoy from the Liao Kingdom.

The seemingly completely different experiences of the queen mothers of the two countries have a common reason behind them, and that is the negative consequences of listening to politics behind the curtain.

"The Liao Kingdom sent an envoy to poison the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang? This is incredible!" Lu Dafang couldn't believe the news.

"The tree fell and the monkeys dispersed! The Liang family has been destroyed, not to mention that the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang is unable to support herself." Zhang Dun shook his head.

Although the death of the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang was unbelievable, after the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang destroyed the Liang family, she had already bought out the hidden dangers. Now the only thing left in the Liang family is the big bare tree of the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang, so naturally no one will avenge her.

........................

"Xixia seeks peace!"

The funeral of Empress Dowager Gao had just ended and the bones of Empress Dowager Xiaoliang were still cold. The Liao and Xia envoys came to Kaifeng again to discuss the Song-Xia peace.

The Xixia royal family and Dangxiang nobles immediately supported the young emperor Li Qianshun to take charge of the throne. The Liao Kingdom cooperated and quickly arranged for the marriage of Li Qianshun and Yelu Nanxian, and the emperor and empress ruled together.

Although Li Qianshun was young, he was suppressed by the Empress Dowager Xiaoliang for a long time and developed a precocious character. With the help of the power of the Liao Kingdom, he dealt with the royal family and the party nobles and quickly established a firm foothold.

However, Li Qianshun understood that if he wanted to revive Xixia, there was another crucial factor, which was to restore relations with the Song Dynasty as soon as possible. Now he sent envoys to the Song Dynasty again to sue for peace, and asked the Song Dynasty to occupy Baotai Military Division and Jingjing. Serbian Military Department.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, Xixia has surrendered. This is God's blessing for the Song Dynasty!"

Lu Dafang was overjoyed and said that he has always been conservative and loves to be rude, and Xixia's peacemaking greatly satisfied his vanity.

Fan Zheng frowned and said: "Master Lu is too happy too early. Xixia has already married the Liao Kingdom, which shows that it is completely dependent on the Liao Kingdom. I am afraid that its peace talks with the Song Dynasty are not sincere. You must know that the Song Xia Dynasty has just experienced three wars. , I am afraid Xixia will not be willing to surrender to the Song Dynasty."

Lu Dafang said proudly: "Fan Taicheng's words are wrong. It was Empress Dowager Xiaoliang who had been attacking the Song Dynasty. Now that Empress Dowager Xiaoliang has passed away, the opportunity for peace between Song and Xia has been restored. As Fan Taicheng said, Xixia and Liao were reconciled. The two countries have good relations, and if the Song Dynasty does not show goodwill, I am afraid it will only push Xixia into the Liao Kingdom."

What Lu Dafang has always admired is the way of balance. This kind of thinking is quite popular in the court. It is this kind of thinking that allows Xixia to have both sides. It allows Xixia to survive the crisis repeatedly, and after it becomes strong, it will backfire on the Song Dynasty again.

Zhang Dun frowned and said: "So what if we push it to the Liao Kingdom? The Liao and Xia are already collaborating with each other. In the last war, the two countries jointly sent troops. If the Song Dynasty had not had Zhentian Lei and the Tong Guan Navy returned, I am afraid that the Song Dynasty would have We are under attack from both sides."

New Party officials agreed one after another that the last battle was the most dangerous battle in the Song Dynasty. Fortunately, the Song Dynasty survived without any danger, which also greatly increased the confidence of the Song Dynasty.

Lu Dafang tried his best to argue: "This time Xixia was very sincere. Li Qianshun not only apologized, but also deposed the military power of Empress Dowager Xiaoliang's cronies, Weiming Awu and Renduo Baozhong, and even executed him for planning for Empress Dowager Xiaoliang. Wei Baomu and Jie, who were harassing the Song border, met two generals."

Zhang Dun frowned. He was quite surprised by the generosity of the little emperor of Xixia. Xixia punished the generals who invaded the Song Dynasty, which was enough to show Xixia's determination for peace.

Fan Zheng sneered and said: "Do you really think that Li Qianshun punished the Xixia generals for the sake of peace in the Song Dynasty? He just learned the lessons of the Xixia relatives' monopoly, strengthened the imperial power, and eliminated the cronies of Empress Dowager Xiaoliang."

Zhao Xu couldn't help but suddenly realized that he had almost been fooled by Li Qianshun.

Lu Dafang still insisted: "No matter what Li Qianshun wants, 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. Xixia will no longer be a threat to the Song Dynasty, and Li Qianshun agrees to this peace negotiation without any need." For Sui coins, you just need to resume trading."

All the officials in the court were immediately moved. If the threat of Xixia was eliminated, the benefits to the Song Dynasty would be self-evident, so why didn't they just make the mistake?

Even Zhao Xu fell into thinking, considering the gains and losses.

Fan Zheng firmly objected: "The officials must not let down their guard against Xixia. Xixia was originally split from the Song Dynasty, and all the emperors of the past dynasties were responsible for taking it back. Now the Song Dynasty has used the Cold War to weaken Xixia as much as possible. If they continue to fight with each other, Negotiating peace with Xixia will only make all the efforts of the Song Dynasty against Xixia in vain."

Lu Dafang angrily said: "Last time, Liao and Xia jointly attacked the Song Dynasty, each with their own evil intentions. The Song Dynasty only faced Xixia and allowed the Liao Kingdom to retreat without a fight. If the Song Dynasty no longer woos Xixia, what will they face next time?" It will be a coalition of Liao and Xia working together, how will the Song Dynasty face it then?"

Fan Zhengzheng said fearlessly: "With the thunderous thunder, the Song Dynasty is not afraid of the Liao and Xia. Moreover, according to the roundabout strategy, the Song Dynasty needs to wait for the opportunity to regain Xixia. If we resume negotiations with Xixia at this moment, it will only allow Xixia to regain its strength." , Helping the tyrants to do evil."

"Sky Thunder!"

Hearing Fan Zheng mention Zhentian Lei, all the officials in the court suddenly became emboldened. The appearance of Zhentian Lei directly made up for the weakness of the Song Dynasty's military force and greatly improved the Song army's combat effectiveness.

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

"Although the country is large, if it is warlike, it will perish. If war breaks out again, the Song Dynasty will be overwhelmed! It will be defeated without a fight." Lu Dafang angrily rebuked.

He found that since Fan Zheng appeared in the court, he always incited officials to fight. However, with the sound of thunder, thousands of taels of gold were lost in successive battles. Although the Song Dynasty was victorious, the Song Dynasty was burdened with a large amount of national debt. If it could Liao Liao Xia Heping was also a rare respite for the Song Dynasty.

Fan Zheng retorted after hearing this: "Although the country is big, if it likes war, it will be destroyed. Although the world is peaceful and forgets to fight, it will be in danger. Lu Xianggong insists on seeking peace. Xixia has not yet attacked, so he will be timid before fighting. Once there is war, I am afraid that only the Song Dynasty will Really dangerous.”

Lu Dafang still wanted to scold Fan Zheng, but Fan Zheng continued: "Moreover, the little emperor Li Qianshun of Xixia was only 12 years old. Now he is just 12 years old. He is also purging the confidants of Empress Dowager Xiaoliang in the Xixia army. The country is still unstable, and How dare you go to conquer the Song Dynasty? The Prime Minister will not be afraid of the threat of a 12-year-old baby!"

Facing Fan Zheng's sarcasm, Lu Dafang suddenly blushed. He still regarded Xixia as the previous Xixia, but he forgot that Xixia was different from the past. Its emperor was only 12 years old. It was difficult to hold the throne, so what? Dare to gather an army to attack the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Xu looked at Lu Dafang and couldn't help but show a hint of disappointment. Lu Dafang was too weak. He always wanted peace when facing Liao and Xia, which was completely inconsistent with his ambition to unify the world.

Lu Dafang still didn't know: "But Liao and Xia came together as envoys. If they reject Xixia, how will they explain to Liao?"

Fan Zheng said without hesitation: "What's so difficult about this? Let's just say that according to the covenant between the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom, Song and Liao jointly operate the land Silk Road, and reopening the business with Xixia violates the Song-Liao covenant."

"Wonderful! In this way, although the Liao Kingdom agreed to mediate for Xixia in order to win over Xixia, it was not willing to give up the huge interests of the Silk Road. As long as the Song Dynasty insisted on the Song-Liao alliance, it could not only continue the cold war against Xixia, but also To alienate Liao and Xia." Su Song slapped the table and screamed.How could the Liao Kingdom be willing to share the benefits of the Overland Silk Road, which amounted to millions of dollars, to Xixia every year? Otherwise, the person marrying Xixia would not be Yelu Nanxian but Yelu Nanyin.

As long as the Song Dynasty insists on the Song-Liao alliance, how can Xixia not be suspicious of the Liao Kingdom?

"Accurate!" Zhao Xu solemnly ordered.

At present, the Song Dynasty directly rejected Xixia's request to reopen negotiations on the grounds of adhering to the Song-Liao alliance. However, in response to Xixia's invitation to negotiate peace, both parties agreed to temporarily stop fighting within the existing boundaries of occupation.

The Liao and Xia envoys returned without success.

..............................

Fan Zheng was responsible for receiving the envoys from Liao and Xia, and was also responsible for the weapons inspection and the Royal Bank, not to mention the important task of reviving the medical family. He was busy with government affairs every day and went out before dawn.

It's just dawn!
The sound of Fan Zheng getting up woke up Li Qingzhao.

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

"Suddenly I saw the willows on the street, and I regret teaching my husband to look for a title! Now I finally understand the meaning of this sentence." Li Qingzhao's eyes were hazy, and he hugged Fan Zheng and refused to let go.

Fan Zheng comforted him: "After the envoys from Liao and Xia leave, the Song Dynasty will usher in a long period of peace. When the time comes, I will accompany you well."

"Ok!"

Li Qingzhao groaned and nodded imperceptibly.

After Fan Zheng left, Li Qingzhao could no longer sleep and began to write operas.As operas spread widely, their status as a third-generation literary school was increasingly accepted by the literati of the Song Dynasty. As the founder of Li Qu, Li Qingzhao’s status in the literary world was unreachable. His former mental illness had long since disappeared. Healed with medicine.

This time, she plans to compile the most classic "The Orphan of Zhao" into a drama. She believes that "The Orphan of Zhao" will become an instant hit once it is released.

However, when she started writing several times, her thoughts were completely confused, and before she knew it, it was already dawn.

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

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

Xiaolian stepped forward to sort out the manuscripts and said: "Nowadays, many literati have joined operas. There is no shortage of scripts in the opera house. Miss, there is no need to work so hard."

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

"It doesn't matter! It's a nice day today, so you can accompany me to the Maternity and Children's Hospital. I made an appointment with Zhang Youniang for a check-up today." Li Qingzhao stood up and said.

"Go to the Maternity and Children's Hospital?" Xiaolian couldn't help but be stunned.

As Li Qingzhao's personal maid, she naturally knew what Li Qingzhao was worried about, which was that it had been two years since her wedding to her uncle, but she had never been pregnant.

You must know that Li Qingzhao is not an ordinary young woman who gets married at an early age. She was already one year old when she married Fan Zheng, and Fan Zheng was also a healthy young man with proficient medical skills. Not to mention that Fan Zheng and Li Qingzhao have never separated in these years. , but has never been pregnant.

Although the master and the old lady did not urge her, and Fan Zheng did not complain at all, even Master Li, who had just married Yang Jie, was pregnant, but her belly had not moved. How could Li Qingzhao not be worried? .

That day, Li Qingzhao and Lian'er took a carriage from Fan Mansion to the Maternity and Children's Hospital.

The famous Li Qingzhao came to the Women's and Children's Hospital for treatment, so Zhang Youniang naturally did not dare to neglect her, not to mention that Li Qingzhao had another identity, the wife of the evil doctor Fan Zheng.

"I wonder what disease Mr. Li needs to be treated for?" Zhang Youniang took Li Qingzhao to the hospital and asked solemnly.

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

"what!"

Zhang Youniang couldn't help but exclaimed and looked at Li Qingzhao in disbelief.

Li Qingzhao sighed quietly: "I and Fan Taicheng have been married for more than two years, but they are still not pregnant. Zhang Youniang is a gynecologist, and she came here today to ask for medicine."

Zhang Youniang's face turned solemn when she heard this. She examined Li Qingzhao carefully and asked solemnly, "I don't know about Fan Taicheng and the Li family's marital affairs?"

Li Qingzhao's face turned red and he said, "Is it okay?"

Zhang Youniang nodded and said: "The Li family are members of Fan Taicheng's family, so they must know the best date for a woman to conceive?"

Ever since Fan Zheng used pig breeding to give Zhao Xu, who was infected with cotton poisoning, a son and two daughters, the best time to conceive was no secret among doctors.

"I know!" Li Qingzhao said with a sinking heart. Not only did she know it, but she also had sex at the best time for conception every time. However, she still hadn't conceived after two years.

Zhang Youniang couldn't help but sighed: "Li family, do you know that if a normally fertile couple fails to conceive after a year of trying to conceive, they are infertile, and Li family and Fan Taicheng have been infertile for two years."

Fan Zheng and Li were both at the right age to conceive, and they were monogamous. In addition, they knew the best time to conceive, so it was obvious that one of them must have a physical problem.

"But I am infertile?" Li Qingzhao asked eagerly.

Zhang Youniang shook her head and said: "There are many reasons for physical infertility. For example, if the couple is too young, both men and women may be infertile, or they may not have sex at the best time for conception. Infertility may occur suddenly for a long time. Pregnancy, various situations are possible, it would be better for Li and everyone to discuss it with Fan Taicheng, Fan Taicheng is very skilled in medicine and may be able to find a solution."

Li Qingzhao's expression changed. Although Zhang Youniang didn't say it clearly, it was obvious that she was more likely to be infertile.

Li Qingzhao gritted his teeth and said, "If it is my body that is infertile, is there any cure?"

Zhang Youniang couldn't help but sigh. Facing the patient's inquiry, she could only tell the truth: "With the current medical skills, there is no cure, we can only rely on God's will!"

Li Qingzhao suddenly staggered. She and Fan Zheng finally got married. They went through all kinds of hardships to get together, but they never expected that they would be jealous again and make her infertile.

"Thank you so much, Dr. Zhang!"

Li Qingzhao looked pale and stood up to say goodbye.
