When Zhao Ling saw Ye Qing's somewhat confused look, she was also stunned at first, and then she remembered that the reason why Ye Qing called on the Jin, Xia, and Tatars to form an alliance with Song was to fight against the Khwarezmians' advancing eastward. The opinion he just put forward was obviously to lead the Khwarezmians into the territory of China, which was a bit contrary to Ye Qing's initial idea.

So when he looked at the speechless Ye Qing, Zhao Ling laughed for a moment, and then explained: "Ye Qing doesn't have to make things difficult. The reason why I made such a proposal is just one and another. Of course, if the Khwarezmite offends me, China, it should be as you said at the beginning: Even if it is far away, it will be punished. But... I have to remind you that there must be a way out for everything. Since you think the Tatars may become my ultimate opponent in the Song Dynasty, then you should make more preparations."

"I am old and have abdicated. Now no one listens to my words in the court. Just like today, you are the only one who comes to visit me. I have naturally understood the government affairs of the court in the past two years. Therefore, I am old and like to worry about things. There are not many ministers who can make me say a few words in my heart. I have been optimistic about you from the beginning, so don't let me down. I also believe that you can protect the frontiers for the court and ensure the stability of the people." Zhao Sheng sighed and began to show Ye Qing in a way that was as sympathetic as a way to show that no matter what, you should still put the Song court first.

I have given you such power not only to make you please return a beautiful woman, but also to make you able to fulfill your duties as a minister for the extension of the Song Dynasty.

"Yes, what the Supreme Emperor taught is that I must keep your teachings in mind and protect my Song Dynasty's borders, so that others will dare to step beyond the line." Ye Qing said solemnly.

Seeing Guan Li hurriedly bringing a eunuch in. Without waiting for Zhao Sheng to speak, Guan Li began to bend down and wave to the eunuch behind him. After the eunuch took two steps forward and stood parallel to him, he began to report to Zhao Sheng that the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager knew that Ye Qing came to Gushan, because of the rescue of the empress dowager a few days ago, he wanted to summon Ye Qing.

Zhao Xing, who looked energetic and had a red face, had already made him feel a little energy-deficient at this time. Moreover, before Zhao Gou was officially buried, he still only vegetarian food on weekdays, which made him have no extra energy. He continued to discuss the topic of the alliance with Ye Qing.

So after hearing the eunuch's words, he waved at Ye Qing with a smile, indicating that he could leave to meet the Empress Dowager.

Ye Qing was also bowing and preparing to leave, suddenly stopped and turned around and told Zhao Xing about the scenery of the lonely mountain he saw as he walked along the way. He always felt that some places should be repaired.

Ye Qing's words made Zhao Feng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he naturally knew Ye Qing's words, but because he had abdicated, especially his relationship with the current emperor, and his weak and sick body made him not have the energy to think about how to repair the Gushan Garden.

So when Ye Qing could only understand and not speak out, Zhao Ling immediately beat the snake and said with a stick, "Then it's a blessing, Ye Qing, don't worry, go back to Yangzhou. If there is anything, you can come to Gushan to see me."

"Yes, I obey the order." Ye Qing bowed again, and then walked out of the hall.

As Guan Li continued to walk deep into the Gushan Mountain, Guan Li next to him gave Ye Qing a thumbs up and said, "Mr. Ye is so loyal, the Supreme Emperor is very happy."

"I don't spend my own money. Only fools are unwilling to do such things." Ye Qing smiled and then said: "Tomorrow I will tell Li Lifang, the Minister of Works, that this is the meaning of the Supreme Emperor. With Li Lifang's virtue, he will naturally not refuse at this time."

"But..." Guan Li thought of Li Lifang, and his first reaction was Li Fengniang now.

Over the years, Li Fengniang, as the Crown Princess, has been unpopular in front of the current Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager. Li Fengniang is also quite dissatisfied with the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager. Under such circumstances, will Li Lifang be willing to help repair Gushan?

"Don't worry, Li Lifang doesn't have so many charms, let alone Li Dao is still alive. Even if Li Lifang doesn't want it, Li Dao, the old minister under the Supreme Emperor, will not disagree." Ye Qing said confidently: "As for the current queen, she will be unscrupulous before she becomes the queen of the mother, but now she becomes the queen, she will eventually realize that the difference between the queen and the crown princess is not only that the power in her hands is much greater, but also that as the queen, the enemy, which is both open and dark, will also increase a lot. So... she won't take care of these for a while."

After all, she was entangled with Li Fengniang and had been tugging for several years, so Ye Qing naturally had a very thorough understanding of Li Fengniang's temper and personality. She could probably guess that Li Fengniang's current feelings of anxiety caused by her own heart and external environment made her worry about something.

Zhu Yeer gently placed the wine pot on the table, looked at the empty cup in front of Li Fengniang, and finally poured wine again.

Several days have passed since he turned against Ye Qing, but since that day, there has been no real smile on the queen's face. The great joy of becoming the queen who had just become the world's queen was completely dispersed because of his unhappiness with Ye Qing in Yujin Garden, which made Li Fengniang completely seem to have forgotten her noble identity as the queen of the Song Dynasty.

Zuo Yu knocked at the door, and as Zhu Yeer opened the door, he then took Zuo Yu into the outer hall and saluted the queen who was a little wandering in the wine glass in the inner hall. Then Zhu Yeer signaled Zuo Yu to wait for the queen to ask questions here, and she walked to Li Fengniang, the inner hall again.

Zuo Yu stood with his hands respectfully, and he didn't even think about looking up at what Li Fengniang was doing. He just looked quietly at the precious carpet under his feet, waiting for Li Fengniang to ask questions.

"Has he left Lin'an?" After a long time, Li Fengniang's voice rang in Zuo Yu's ears. Naturally, I also knew who he was referring to in the current queen's mouth.

"If you go back to the queen, you haven't left yet." Zuo Yu replied concisely.

Then there was a soft sigh in his ear. Li Fengniang finally raised her eyes from the wine glass and looked at Zuo Yu who was standing in the outer hall. Her white forehead seemed to be hiding a lot of sorrow, and she murmured: "When will you go?"

"The morning after tomorrow, I took a boat from the dock to Yangzhou." Zuo Yu lowered his head and said, "I was ignorant."

He just answered Li Fengniang's question mechanically, just like he was like a wooden man who had no idea about his own thoughts, not distinguishing right from wrong in Li Fengniang and Ye Qing's affairs.

"I want to see him with a word, I want to see him." Li Fengniang played with the wine glass on the table with delicate fingers. After watching the wine in the glass overflow and flowing onto her fingers, she actually raised her fingers and sucked them in her mouth as if she was enjoying it.

"Today... I'm afraid it won't work. An hour ago, I heard that I went to Gushan and said goodbye to the Supreme Emperor." Zuo Yu began to swear and vomit.

As Zuo Yu expected, Li Fengniang, who slowly took her finger out of her mouth, first sneered, and then said coldly: "Say farewell to the Supreme Emperor? Humph, I'm afraid that the drunkard's intention is not in the bar, so it's better to see the vixen once."

"I don't know very well." Zuo Yu felt a little amused at this moment.

"Tell him that the Japanese Palace wants to see him in the garden. If you can't see him, don't think that hiding in Gushan, I will have no choice but to do anything to her!" Li Fengniang said at the end and gritted her teeth.

As Zuo Yu had just walked out of Renming Hall, behind him, the sound of a wine glass being thrown on the thick carpet came. Li Fengniang, who was holding chopsticks in the other hand, had her expression as if she was a resentful woman who was alone in the empty bedroom.

Li Fengniang, who was still the Crown Princess, only saw the various rights of the queen who was in charge of the world, as well as the grand ceremony that made her think about day and night, etc., but when she truly became the queen, she found that she could not be happy, and even became more worried about gains and losses than before.

I thought that Zhao Ruyu and Han Tuozhou, who supported the crown prince, would flatter her like a prince, but it was obviously her that Li Fengniang was self-indulgent.

Since Zhao Dun became the saint of the Song Dynasty and became the queen, Zhao Ruyu and Han Tuzhou did not respect her as Li Fengniang had expected. Instead, they began to get very close to other concubines of the saint. This made her feel a sense of crisis involuntarily, and even began to worry about whether one day her queen would destroy herself because of Zhao Ruyu or Han Tuzhou's slander in front of the saint!

Otherwise, what is the purpose of the two of them getting so close to other concubines? Is it because they are related to them?

In addition to those concubines who could threaten her position as queen at all times, there was naturally pressure from the court. Some ministers had already begun to impeach her for dictatorship without authorization, which also made her feel deeply worried and uneasy.

It was also in this situation that Li Fengniang couldn't help but think about helping her and giving her advice. However, after she ascended the position of queen a few days ago, Ye Qing came, who wanted to get rid of it and then be sad.

So when she knew that Ye Qing had not left Lin'an, her heart immediately became much more at ease. But when she heard what Zuo Yu said, Ye Qing was in Gushan today, her jealousy began to surge up her head in an instant. Without thinking, she knew that Ye Qing, who appeared in Gushan at this time, must not say goodbye to the Supreme Emperor, but to fight with Zhong Qing's fox spirit!

The night in Gushan is filled with a hint of coolness after the beginning of winter, and people's clothes have begun to thicken. Although the lights are still brightly lit and the pleasure boats are floating, because of the winter, standing in the corridor of Gushan still looks a little desolate and deserted when you look at it.

After seeing the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager Ye Qing, he followed Zhong Qing by the Empress Dowager by name and sent him through the corridor pavilion in front of him and slowly headed towards the atrium in Gushan Garden.

After the two of them came out, with Guan Li and Wang Lun's disappearance, only the two of them were left along the way, but neither of them was the first to speak, but just walked out of the Gushan Garden one after another.

Zhong Qing was like a well-behaved and virtuous little wife, following Ye Qing closely. Although the Empress Dowager asked her to send Ye Qing out of the garden, Ye Qing was probably more familiar with the path of the garden than her.
