Because of Li Qing's death, the Zhengbei Army's preparations for the southern expedition suddenly accelerated. Moreover, because of Yaerdan's huge investment, the Zhengbei Mansion had a lot less scruples in preparing for war. The entire Northland felt the tension in the atmosphere.

, the festive atmosphere of Zhenbei Wang Yunzhao's wedding gradually faded away, and it only became a topic of conversation after dinner in teahouses and restaurants. After all, this wedding opened the eyes of Xingling soldiers and civilians.

The huge amount of money that Yaerdan invested in Zhengbei Mansion has won her widespread praise. The comment of a good wife has been firmly pinned on her head. What's more, she is still so beautiful, like a fairy, which is even more in line with her.

In order to meet the expectations of talented people and beauties, King Zhenbei is a hero, and Yaerdan is a beautiful woman, so they are the perfect match.

If there is anyone who is depressed, it must belong to the red lady Yan Miaomiao. Yaerdan's feats and the grand ceremony of the wedding were more or less spread to her ears from the mouths of the servants and guards, although everyone was included.

The hospital tried their best to avoid this topic. Regarding Yun Zhao’s career,

The help that he could provide him was indeed far inferior to that of Yaldan, and even the appearance that he had always been proud of was inferior to others. Looking at his palms that were a little too big due to long-term martial arts practice and the thickness of his palms,

Thick cocoon, the first time the red lady regretted it...

Fortunately, he has a child. He will be Yun Zhao's first child, which can give the red lady some comfort. No matter how strong Yaerdan is, she will never be able to compete with him in this aspect. Zhang Lihua rushed back from Shangjing

, she came back to celebrate Yun Zhao's wedding on behalf of the entire southern region, and the gift she brought to Yun Zhao was the earth-shattering change in the political situation of the Southern Dynasty.

For the first time, I heard from Zhang Lihua that Qin Rouniang had successfully ascended to power, taking over the affairs of the court in place of Li Xiao, who had suffered a stroke. The red lady's mouth was open enough to stuff an egg in. This was the same woman who had married Yun Zhao in Yunjia Village.

, that shy

Shy, shy village girl? In more than ten years, Yun Zhao has changed so much towards people. Yun Zhao has become the powerful Northern King of Dai Viet, and the weak and timid little girl at that time has actually become Dai Viet.

The world is so crazy.

"The Feng Shui in Yunjia Village must be very good, there must be dragon veins underneath!" Lady Hong murmured, "This is so crazy. Qin Rou Niang actually sat in the position she is in today. It's incredible."

Compared with the shock of the red lady, Zhang Lihua's attitude towards Qin Rouniang is not so good. The red lady and Qin Rouniang have a history, but in Zhang Lihua's image, Qin Rouniang has always been the leader of the trap, a person with careful thoughts and ruthless methods.

woman.

"This woman is too evil-minded. In Shangjing, our office suffered a big loss from her this time. We lost some core members, and she almost wiped out all the peripheral members. All the officials in the imperial court who had finally developed suffered a disaster.

"If we don't get rid of this woman, we will definitely encounter greater trouble during our southern expedition." Zhang Lihua said fiercely.

The red lady no longer has the heart to listen to these words about government affairs. She has calmed down her fighting spirit, and now her whole mind is focused on the child who is about to be born.

"Zhang Lihua, I really regret that I didn't listen to you on Cuiping Mountain. If I had followed what you said, maybe it would be a different situation now." The red lady sighed.

Zhang Lihua looked at the face of the Red Lady. Compared with the decisive female general on Cuiping Mountain, the face of the Red Lady now had a softer look. Perhaps because she was pregnant with Liujia, Zhang Lihua could see the faint luster from the Red Lady's face.

face,

I saw many things that I had never seen before. Compared with other generals of the Northern Expedition Army, Zhang Lihua had the most contact with and understood the Red Lady best. Looking at her helpless, helpless and regretful expression, Zhang Lihua couldn't help but feel pity.

.

In fact, no matter what, when the political situation has developed to this stage, the marriage between Yun Zhao and Yaldan is inevitable. Zhang Lihua, who has been immersed in spy work for a long time, is much more politically acumen than the Red Lady.

But of course she won't say it. Saying it will only make the other party sad, and will also destroy the red lady's feelings for the prince. She can only make the red lady feel sad.

The lady regrets and feels sorry for herself. Perhaps this will be a good thing for the prince's future. Needless to say, Yaerdan is a woman with a great outlook on the overall situation. If the red lady can really change her character, she will be a wise man for the prince.

House-in-law. Sometimes Zhang Lihua thought that with the existence of the Red Lady, there would be no need to put too many police guards in the prince's house in the future.

Zhang Lihua was chatting with the red lady in the backyard, while in the lobby of the palace, Yun Zhao, Yao Changkun, Ma Yigong, Han Zhong, including Jiang Feng and other core personnel of the Northern Expedition were gathering together to discuss the plan for the southern expedition.

The Southern Expedition Plan was originally planned a long time ago, but with the return of Zhang Lihua, the information she brought shocked everyone, and everyone was divided about the Southern Expedition Plan.

One group advocated an immediate attack, led by the Ministry of War Yao Changkun, who believed that this was a God-given opportunity. Li Xiao suffered a stroke and Qin Rouniang came to power. Chaos would inevitably occur in the Southern Dynasty. Qin Rouniang was weak in the army, and many generals might not buy her account.

There are different orders and each will do its own thing. If the war continues, the North will have the upper hand.

However, this statement was opposed by Han Zhong and others.

"Your Majesty, I think there is something fishy in this matter. The information brought back by Zhang Lihua clearly stated that although Li Xiao had a stroke, it was very mild. Although he was unable to walk, his mind was still very clear and he was not

He couldn't give orders and control the government. At this time, he actually asked Qin Rouniang to take charge of the government. This was too strange, even if Li Xiao wanted to meditate and cultivate.

, the person in charge of politics should be the queen, or the chief assistant Cao Yi, Qin Rouniang's turn was not her turn no matter what, and Li Xiao was not a fool. He really saw no problem or thought about Li Qing's death? What's more, Hao Ren was beheading him.

When we killed Li Qing, we also left a tail for Li Xiao. If Li Xiao didn't become suspicious, it's not that he was stupid, but that we were lying to ourselves."

"What do you mean, Mr. Han?"

"What I mean is that a larger-scale internal fight will break out in the Southern Dynasties, and the protagonists of this internal fight will be Qin Rouniang and Li Xiao." Han Zhong said flatly.

"Does Qin Rouniang have the capital to compete with Li Xiao?" Yun Zhao asked doubtfully.

"Your Majesty, please don't forget that Qin Rouniang owns Luowang, a huge spy agency, and has certain strength. After Li Xiao left the south, Qin Rouniang quickly gained control of the south. All this information has been confirmed. As for

Why did Qin Rouniang suddenly get the full support of the southern aristocratic family headed by the Qin family? The Zifang Division had started the investigation a few months ago. This was arranged by the prince yourself. Li Qingyi died

, the southern army was mainly composed of Xiongkuohai, and all fell into the hands of Qin Rouniang. Maybe Qin Rouniang's current strength is still not enough to fight against Li Xiao, but she has the ability to throw the south into chaos, so that the Southern Dynasty will be in trouble again.

After a large-scale internal fight, Li Xiao was faced with collapse. He was a smart man and he would not let this happen. This is why after Li Qing's death, instead of holding Qin Rouniang accountable, Li Xiao pushed her to the top.

"

"You want to catch me?" Yun Zhao touched the beard on his lips, thoughtfully.

"Yes, it's a trick. After all, Qin Rouniang is a woman. Even though she is talented, her view of the overall situation is bound to be limited due to the education she received. Once she takes office, the first thing she thinks of is to consolidate her power.

This way she

Many of Li Xiaoneng's actions made Li Xiaoneng clearly think that if he wanted to destroy him, he must first make him crazy. I guess that Li Xiao was setting up a plan to take down Qin Rouniang in one fell swoop without causing any damage to the south.

Game." Han Zhong said with certainty.

"So we can wait and see? But if Li Xiao succeeds, won't we face a united South?" Yun Zhao asked rhetorically.

"No. I said that Qin Rouniang lacks the overall situation, but looking at the process of this woman's fortune, she is extremely smart. She is not good at strategy, but she is a master at tactics. If Li Xiao takes action, he may suffer.

We don’t have to wait until her powerful counterattack

The dust of their fight has settled, and they can suddenly intervene with force when their fight reaches its peak. At this time, they are unable to stop, and this is our best chance." Han Zhongdao. "So I am opposed to starting the fight now.

Battles in the Southern Dynasties."

Jiang Feng and Ma Yigong agreed with Han Zhong's opinions, while Yao Changkun and other military generals insisted on their own opinions.

"Your Majesty!" Yao Changkun stood up, "What Mr. Han said is indeed one aspect, but we have to consider that the enemy we face, the Xie Clan Shu Army in Jingzhou, is basically equivalent to a dú lì force, and the Southern Dynasties are against them

The influence of the Xie family was extremely small. The Xie family controlled Jingzhou and Yuzhou, and their influence spread to Jiangzhou.

Jingjiang is a prosperous place. If we give him time, he will definitely become a stumbling block for us. Now, it is best to knock him down before he has a stable foothold. Now Xie is still relying on Li to give him blood transfusions. Once they

When trouble breaks out, Xie cannot get effective supplements, and he has not yet formed a self-supply system, so he will do half the work and get twice the result."

After listening to Yao Changkun's words, Han Zhong shook his head repeatedly: "My opinion is to let the Xie family go without fighting. If we insist on starting a war now, I mean to fight the good people, not the Xie family."

"What's the truth?" Yao Changkun said angrily.

"Because Congliang is Li's die-hard confidant, no matter what happens, Congliang will definitely follow Li Xiao to the end, but the Xie family will not. If we fight the Xie family, Congliang will definitely not stand idly by and will definitely contain us and cause us trouble.

, as for fighting Congliang, Xie may not be so enthusiastic, maybe Xie Shilin will think that he can take this opportunity to develop his own strength."

Both factions have their own valid opinions. Yun Zhao was also unsure about paying attention for a moment. He looked at the crowd and said, "Let's think carefully about the advantages and disadvantages involved. But there is one thing that everyone must be clear about. In the battle across the river, we should not think about it."
