Zhao Yingluo was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Zhao Zhen to come so quickly. She immediately straightened her clothes and said, "Invite him in, and everyone else will leave!"
After Feng Jing opened the door and invited Zhao Zhen in, he closed the door, dismissed all the people guarding the door, and stayed away from the house.
After Zhao Zhen entered the door, he saw the person he wanted to see day and night, with a graceful body and smooth hair hanging down to his slender waist. Although there were not many hairpins on his head, he showed a simple and capable is that legendary woman, Shen Wanshu.
However, before he could speak, she suddenly turned around and showed a sweet smile, "Royal brother! Long time no see!"
Hearing her greeting, Zhao Zhen's heart was suddenly shocked, the emperor's brother?She...she is? Through the sunshine outside the window, Zhao Zhen finally saw her appearance clearly. She... how could it be possible!How could it be her?The legendary story about Shen Wanshu spread throughout the Central Plains, but no one said that Shen Wanshu was his closest imperial sister, Zhao Yingluo.
This... what happened in the meantime? Zhao Yingluo saw where he was, motionless, and her expression changed several times. She couldn't help but asked jokingly, "What? After two years of being a grass bandit, you don't even recognize the imperial sister?"
Zhao Zhen's breathing became heavier, her chest kept rising and falling, and her eyes turned from full of surprise to ecstasy, "Sister Huang! Sister Huang! So... it turns out it's really you! I've met Sister Huang!"
He knelt down on one knee and his eyes began to sparkle with the Jingkang Incident, my father, mother, and all the royal brothers, younger brothers, elder sisters, and younger sisters were all taken captive and headed north.
And he also endured a lot of hardships before he finally settled down in the Wuma Mountain camp. How could he not be excited when he suddenly saw his relatives at this moment.
Zhao Yingluo smiled happily, "Look at you, you are already twenty now, why are you still crying? Sit down quickly." After helping Zhao Zhen up and letting him sit down, she took a careful look at him. After two years of not seeing each other, he has become more and more handsome, but there is still a bit of childishness between his eyebrows.
"Sister Huang has often thought about you in the past two years. Now it seems that you are living a good life outside the palace. Not only have you grown up, but you also have hundreds of thousands of people who are loyal to you."
Zhao Zhen gathered her emotions and looked at her deeply, "Sister Huang, you have changed so much that I dare not recognize you. I never thought that Shen Wanshu is you, Sister Huang! Why did Sister Huang become Lord Lu? Your niece? She became the adopted daughter of the old general Zong? Why didn’t your father recognize you? Why did the emperor make you the princess?..."
Zhao Zhen threw away the doubts in her heart one by one.
Zhao Yingluo chuckled lightly, "A lot of things happened during this period. After I escaped from the Jinren..."
She briefly recounted her efforts in the past two years. Of course, all the things about her true identity and possession of dimensional space that had nothing to do with this era were hidden.
At the end, Zhao Yingluo finally revealed her ultimate purpose, "You must have been vaguely aware of the reason why I want to conceal my identity."
Zhao Zhen said with a serious face, "Sister Huang, do you want to follow the example of the former Empress Wu? Proclaim yourself emperor?"
Zhao Yingluo said sternly, "I actually want to grow crops honestly, but will this current situation allow me to grow crops honestly? The Jin people go south to threaten from time to time, and Xixia also makes trouble from time to time. The entire Song Dynasty is now riddled with holes, not only We have lost a large amount of land and a lot of people's hearts. Trying to rely on the emperor's brother to revive the Song Dynasty and achieve ZTE is nothing more than a daydream."
Zhao Zhen was silent...
He felt the same as the words of the imperial sister Zhao Yingluo. The imperial brother was afraid that the Hebei rebel army would grow stronger, and he was afraid that he would threaten his position, so he did not send troops to rescue emperor tried to compromise and try to please the Jin people. Such an emperor was indeed not the master of the ZTE.
"If my brother can make up his mind to support me and become emperor one day, I guarantee that you will be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people!" Zhao Zhen hesitated. The emperor's brother Zhao Gou was indeed weak, but let him support his sister and become emperor. I don’t really agree with it either.
He freely practiced the teachings of Confucius and Mencius and learned the etiquette of Confucianism. The current emperor is the emperor's brother Zhao Gou. The emperor's sister seeks to be independent, which is rebellion!What's more, is there any reason that a woman can sit on this throne? Even the former Empress Wu, Wu Zetian, eventually returned to power under Li Tang amid widespread opposition from the world! Zhao Yingluo was not in a hurry to let him make a decision at this moment, "Whether I become emperor or not depends on whether the emperor can tolerate you and me, and whether he can stop asking for compromise and negotiate with the Jinren. I can think about it for some time, but I hope that I can Help me conceal my identity for now.”
Zhao Zhen's face softened a little, and she held up her hands and said, "I have taken care of each other since I was a child. Our relationship is unmatched by that of ordinary brothers and sisters. I should conceal my identity for my sister. I wonder if my father knows the true identity of my sister?"
"Except Mr. Lu, my father is the first person to know my identity, and you are the second one! I am tired from the long journey, so I can take a short break and gather the generals after lunch to discuss the war."
Zhao Yingluo then ordered Feng Jing to take Zhao Zhen out, and began to prepare to attack Wanyan Zonghan.
[Afternoon·Camp outside Wei County]
Zhao Yingluo ordered Feng Jing to escort fifty carts of wine and meat to where Zhao Zhen's army was stationed. After giving these rewards to the soldiers, they took Feng Jing and others to Zhao Zhen's Chinese army tent.
Due to the need to conceal the identity of the imperial sister, Zhao Zhen did not go out to welcome her.
After the generals from both sides sat down, Zhao Yingluo immediately asked, "What does His Highness King Xin think of the current situation?"
Zhao Zhen's face straightened, "The Jin people are powerful. Although Chanzhou City is defended by Han Shizhong and General Yue, the city will be forced over time. Now we should take advantage of their unpreparedness and send our troops south to defend the city with General Han. We will encircle Wan Yan Zonghan on the south bank of the Yellow River. At that time, the enemy will either fight or surrender, and we must flexibly deal with it."
"As I thought."
"Early tomorrow morning, the army will immediately set off south. This battle will affect the honor and disgrace of the Song Dynasty. Generals, please do not use your lives during the battle! Do not allow Wanyan Zonghan to escape."
……
After Yue Fei's reinforcements arrived, Wanyan Zonghan tentatively attacked the city, but failed because of that magical technique!But Wanyan Zonghan did not give up.
"General, the people sent to Chanzhou City to find out the news are back!"
"Let him in quickly!" Wanyan Zonghan, who was restless in the military tent, was overjoyed. After a while, a man who looked like a farmer was brought into the camp.
"How's it going? Have you found out?"
"Back to the general, I have found out that the current defenders of Chanzhou City are only [-], and my army's siege for several days has left the opponent with no food and grass. As for that magical technique, it is just a novel weapon! Xiao Someone was lucky enough to steal one back."
After saying this, the spy reached out to untie his straps and opened the package on his back, revealing a firecracker. He then raised his hands above his head and presented it to Wanyan Zonghan.
