Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After Liangshan troops captured Qingzhou, Chao Yong urged Zhao Mingcheng to send someone to pick up Li Qingzhao and sent a team of soldiers to escort him along the way.

    Zhao Mingcheng was still unwilling to join Liangshan that day, but after seeing the power of black powder that day, Zhao Mingcheng was determined to help Chao Gai and his son conquer the world.

    News in the countryside was much delayed, and Li Qingzhao came to Qingzhou full of questions.

    After arriving in Qingzhou, I learned that Qingzhou had been occupied by Liangshan soldiers and horses, and the Liangshan soldiers and horses were no longer prepared to grab a handful and leave, but wanted to raise a flag to rebel.  The soldiers who escorted her all the way were the personal soldiers of the young master of Liangshan Village. What made him even more unexpected was that her husband Zhao Mingcheng actually defected to Liangshan.

    So as soon as Li Qingzhao got out of the car, he asked Zhao Mingcheng to take him to the study.

    Li Qingzhao looked at Zhao Mingcheng, who had not seen him for a long time. He did not seem to be thin because he missed him and dealt with official duties. He seemed to have gained some weight.

    Zhao Mingcheng only thought that Li Qingzhao was a nerd again, so he came to the study as soon as he got off the car, and said with a smile: "Madam, this house belongs to an evil gentry in the city. He only knows how to defraud the people on weekdays, and how can he bother to study. This study is a bit small.  , I will ask someone to expand it later.¡±

    Li Qingzhao glanced at Zhao Mingcheng in confusion and said: "My husband is also a man who has read poetry and books, so he should know the principle of loyalty to the emperor and serving the country. How come he has become a gang with the soldiers and horses of Liangshan and does that thing without a king and a father?"

    Zhao Mingcheng shook his head and said: "As the sage said, the people are the most valuable, the country is the second most important, and the king is the least important. Now the emperor of the Song Dynasty is fatuous, and the people of the world are in dire straits. However, King Chao Tian of Liangshan is magnanimous, kind and caring for the people. I am planning for the people of the world, and it is the right time to assist King Chao.  ¡±

    Li Qingzhao frowned and said: "But the imperial court treated the Zhao family well. My father was the prime minister during his lifetime, and you also became the magistrate of the state. Even if the imperial court is unkind to the people, it failed the Zhao family. How can an official betray the imperial court."

    Zhao Mingcheng did not expect that Li Qingzhao called him to question him. He recalled the unpleasantness in the previous correspondence and said impatiently: "What kind of kindness does the emperor of the Song Dynasty have to my Zhao family? My father dedicated his life to the Song Dynasty, but in the end he was ordered by that foolish king."  The gifted official was taken away, and I was demoted to the countryside for more than ten years. How could I, Zhao Mingcheng, forget the people of the world because of my own selfishness, even if I had a little kindness to my Zhao family."

    Li Qingzhao asked curiously: "What kind of virtue does King Chao Tian have? It makes you say that he is the only one who can save the people of the world."

    Zhao Mingcheng smiled and said: "Chao Tianwang hates evil and hates evil. When he was in Liangshan, he acted for heaven and killed corrupt officials to save the people. If he were to rule the world, how would the traitorous ministers like Cai Jing have the opportunity to gain power? Moreover, after King Chao Tian became king, he planned to exempt agricultural taxes.  , it can be seen that he loves the people, and if he can govern the world, wouldn¡¯t it be a blessing for all people?¡±

    "Official."

    While the two were talking, they heard a sweet and waxy voice coming from outside.

    Li Qingzhao suddenly turned cold and looked towards the door unhappily.

    "Squeak"

    Zhao Mingcheng¡¯s newly acquired concubine opened the door and walked in. When she saw Li Qingzhao, she was filled with joy and said, ¡°Zi Yan, meet my sister.¡±

    Although Li Qingzhao was unhappy, he still said: "Since my sister has already entered, we are a family, so there is no need to be polite."

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the blue, and said crisply: "I have asked my sister to clean up the house, sister go and see if she is satisfied with it."

    After finishing speaking, he said to Zhao Mingcheng: "Hou Jian just sent someone to send new official uniforms, and I have put them away for the officials. This Hou Jian is truly a first-hand tailor, and the clothes he makes are really exquisite."

    Li Qingzhao frowned when he saw Zi Yan acting like a hostess.  Zhao Mingcheng had taken in several concubines before, and some people had tried to take away Li Qingzhao's rights. However, Li Qingzhao was devoted to poetry and epigraphy research, and was happy to have someone take care of some chores at home for her, but in the end it was her who gave in.  Being treated as incompetent, those people actually wanted to take advantage of her.

    After more than ten years, Li Qingzhao also knew that if she wanted to find peace, she had to frighten these concubines so as to avoid a lot of trouble.

    Li Qingzhao nodded and said, "Since I'm here, my sister won't have to worry about these things anymore. I still have something to discuss with the officials, so you can go down."

    Zi Yan had already regarded herself as the mistress, and when she heard that Li Qingzhao had seized power as soon as he arrived, and ordered her around like a human being, she couldn't help but run up to Zhao Mingcheng, twisted her body and said, "Officer"

    Zhao Mingcheng looked at the delicate concubine, and then at Li Qingzhao who looked unhappy next to him. He had no choice but to pat Ziyan's hand and said, "You go down first. My wife and I still have something to discuss."

    Zi Yan did not comply: "I want to accompany the official."

    Li Qingzhao frowned and said, "That's too rude. Didn't the officials tell her about family law?"

    The Zhao family is a wealthy family, so naturally there are many rules.

    Zhao Mingcheng, who was nearly forty years old, suddenly suffered fromHow could a young and beautiful woman like a flower have the heart to tell her those family laws? Hearing this, he smiled unnaturally and said: "She is still a child, so there is no need to be too strict."

    Li Qing took care of Zhao Mingcheng and protected this concubine like this. He also knew why he had written letters to Zizhou several times before, but Zhao Mingcheng rejected them.

    Seeing that the atmosphere in the study was getting more and more tense, Zhao Mingcheng also had a headache. One was his beloved concubine, and the other was his wife who had been together for more than ten years.

    "Master, General Chao Yong is here."

    At this time, another voice came from outside the house.

    When Zhao Mingcheng heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said to Li Qingzhao: "The young general must have known that the wife was coming, so he came to pay her respects. But he admired the wife's poems very much, and he had previously sent a team of soldiers to pick up the wife.  Madam, please come with me to see the Major General."

    Before Li Qingzhao could answer, Zi Yan said again: "I want to go too."

    Hearing this, Zhao Mingcheng hurriedly said: "Don't be ridiculous, how can you go to see the Major General."

    Li Qingzhao glanced at Zi Yan and said, "Only the head wife is qualified to receive guests. My sister will wait here."

    Zi Yan was secretly angry when she saw Zhao Mingcheng and Li Qingzhao going out together.

    After Chao Yong heard the soldiers reported that Li Qingzhao was here, he went straight to the mansion that had just been assigned to Zhao Mingcheng. He was also very curious about this most talented woman in history.

    Chao Yong was sitting in the hall and found himself a little nervous. He stared at the door for a while before he saw Zhao Mingcheng and a woman appearing outside the house.

    Li Qingzhao usually only writes and writes, and has no children. He looks like he is only in his thirties.  The life is dignified and beautiful, full of intellectual beauty.

    When Chao Yong saw Li Qingzhao, he unconsciously stood up to greet him, stretched out his hand and said, "I am Chao Yong, and I like your words very much."

    Li Qingzhao looked at Chao Yong's stretched out hand and couldn't help but be stunned.

    "Ahem"

    When Zhao Mingcheng saw Chao Yong reaching out to his wife, he felt embarrassed and hurriedly cleared his throat.

    Chao Yong was stunned, and then realized that he had subconsciously taken out the etiquette of future generations, and quickly stretched out his hand, saying awkwardly: "I heard that when a country overseas sees someone they admire, they will shake hands and salute, which is a bit abrupt, Madam  Don¡¯t be offended.¡±

    Maritime trade was very developed in the Northern Song Dynasty. Zhao Mingcheng and Li Qingzhao also heard about many foreign customs. They heard that some people had to hug and kiss when they met. It was really a barbarian country and they didn't understand etiquette.

    Li Qingzhao smiled and said: "The general is so flattering. There are countless talents in this world who are better than this little girl. The slave family also wants to thank the general for sending troops to escort me."

    Chao Yong said hurriedly: "You're welcome. It's my honor to be able to do something for layman Yi An with just a little effort."

    Li Qingzhao was very surprised to see Chao Yong being so flattering. He smiled and said, "I wonder what words of mine the general likes?"

    Chao Yong thought for a while and said: "The mist is thick and the clouds are sad for the eternal day, and the auspicious brain sells the golden beast. The festival is the Double Ninth Festival, the jade pillow is in the gauze cupboard, and the coolness comes through in the middle of the night. After dusk, there is a dark fragrance filling the sleeves of the wine in the east fence. Don't  The Tao is not perfect, the west wind blows behind the curtain, and people are thinner than yellow flowers."

    Li Qingzhao couldn't help but be stunned after hearing this, and then his face turned red with embarrassment.

    This poem was written to Zhao Mingcheng on the Double Ninth Festival this year. It describes her loneliness and melancholy in her boudoir.  She wanted Zhao Mingcheng to take her to Zizhou and reunite her husband and wife, but somehow Chao Yong found out.

    Li Qingzhao thought that this was all her fault, and now it was as if her clothes had been stripped off and exposed to Chao Yong's eyes.  I couldn't help but blushed with shame.

    Chao Yong looked at Li Qingzhao with Xiafei¡¯s cheeks, and felt that the person in front of him was full of attraction with every smile.

    Zhao Mingcheng was confused and said: "This poem is a new poem written by Madam this year. How does the young general know about this poem?"

    "kindness?"

    Chao Yong only remembered this poem. Hearing Zhao Mingcheng's question, he was stunned. He thought for a while and said, "I usually like layman Yi An's poems, so I took the trouble to collect some of them. However, this poem was recently published."  Zizhou learned about it, so I recited it as soon as Master Yi An said it. "Master Zhao, don't you often ask people to read poems in the state? Maybe my spies got it from them."

    It turns out that Chao Yong knew that Zhao Mingcheng was afraid of death, so he sent people to keep an eye on Zhao Mingcheng early. He also found out some of Zhao Mingcheng's living habits to prevent Zhao Mingcheng from hiding where he could hide when the city was attacked.

    Li Qingzhao became even more angry when he heard that Zhao Mingcheng had randomly read all the poems she had written about her complaints to others. He glared at Zhao Mingcheng and ignored him.

    Zhao Mingcheng was unjustly accused in this matter. Although he was a little fond of the new and disliked the old, he did not want to tell others about their boudoir affairs.

    When he received the poem, he was filled with admiration, but he was unwilling to be outdone, so he thanked the guests behind closed doors and abandoned the poem.Forgetting to eat, for three days and three nights, I wrote fifty words.  This poem by Li Qingzhao is also included in it, and celebrities from Zizhou are invited to comment on which poem is the best.

    Who would have thought that after reading it carefully and repeatedly, those celebrities said: "Only three sentences are excellent."

    Zhao Mingcheng originally thought that the three sentences must be in his own poems, but he never expected that "There is no way to be unfaithful, the west wind blows behind the curtain, and people are thinner than yellow flowers." These are the last three sentences of Li Qingzhao.

    Therefore, Zhao Mingcheng was willing to be inferior to Li Qingzhao's poetry, but in this way, he did not want a wife who was more talented than him to come to his side.

    Chao Yong also saw that Li Qingzhao and Zhao Mingcheng seemed to be at odds, but he had already met Li Qingzhao. Thinking that he really had nothing to say to a great poet, he said: "I still have some military affairs, so I will leave first and wait for him."  I¡¯ll see you two again tomorrow.¡± (To be continued.
