Traveling through the divine eagle: the first sword of Quanzhen

Chapter 486 Three Hearts (Dynasty Contest Opens!)

Li Qingwei and Zhao Ke stood at the foot of the city of Xiangyang.

Li Qingwei stared at the towering city wall of Xiangyang.

Li Qingwei said: "It's no wonder that the Mongol army has been unable to attack Xiangyang City for a long time. It really is very easy to defend and difficult to attack."

Zhao Ke said: "It's not all due to our Royal Highness King Wei's good dispatch. If it weren't for those gunboats, I am afraid that Xiangyang will inevitably have a big battle in the near future. By the way, since we are all here, we must Don't you want to go into the city to see your old friend?"

Li Qingwei replied: "No need, right now we have to rush back to Lin'an as soon as possible. You also saw the notice just now, and that notice was at least half a month ago. Now that the emperor is dead, we haven't rushed back yet. It’s already a big crime.”

At this moment, Zhao Ke covered his face with a smile and said, "It was your Highness King Wei who didn't rush back, but it wasn't me, Empress Ziwei. Haven't I been in Lin'an City all this time?"

Li Qingwei said at this time: "I didn't expect this 'substitute' to be so useful, and I will make one later." He looked at Zhao Ke and laughed.

Zhao Ke rode on the horse and lightly "whipped" him with a whip and said, "Hmph~! I hate it!"

Li Qingwei looked at the towering city wall, and then said lightly: "Let's go! Let's go to Hanjin, and then return to Lin'an by boat!"

Now what Li Qingwei is thinking about is not whether the Mongolian army can break through Xiangyang, but what he thinks about is how his own army can take down this great city in the future.

If possible, it is best to fight without bloodshed.

Otherwise, Xiangyang City, Diaoyu City, these places may have to pay a terrible price for their troops.

Compared with the Mongol cities, the Han cities are the most difficult to attack, because his Datang will play the banner of "Heavenly Army" in the future, so naturally rockets can no longer be used to bomb the Han cities.

At that time, the casualties will be too great, and he will only lose the support of the people.

Since ancient times, "the one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world." Conquering the world may depend on whose fists are strong, but ruling the world depends on who wins the hearts of the people.

The world won by hard fists will not last long.

Just like the last years of the Tunguska Emirate, only one city and three towns succeeded in raising righteousness, which caused more than a dozen provinces to quickly break away from it and become independent.

Whether it was the San Francisco Rebellion, or the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, or even the last uprising in the three towns, it was basically someone who raised a flag and the world responded.

It can be seen how much people at that time disliked this kind of deformed high pressure.

Li Qingwei didn't want to follow the old path of the thirteen chiefs.

And he doesn't want to learn from the "Wei Jin" and "Tang Song" and share the world with those "family" insects.

Although the name of the country he wants to establish is still "Tang", it does not mean that he must copy the system of the Tang Dynasty.Moreover, he has also discussed with Zhuge Qingyun, the future "Prime Minister", and he is not in favor of completely copying the "Sui and Tang" system.Innovation and corrections can be carried out within a certain framework.

Although it is impossible for him to reach that ideal world, he still has to do his best.

If he just wanted power and wealth, wouldn't it be good for him to use his status as the eldest son of the emperor to become the emperor of Song Dynasty?Why bother to fight the world by yourself.

To be the emperor of Song Dynasty, as long as he kills his "father" Zhao Yu and "old uncle" Rong Wang, he can immediately ascend the throne as Zhao Pan.

As for Zhao Ke, Li Qingwei could use the "Soul Shifting Dafa" in the Nine Yin Manual to control her and let her be at his mercy.

At that time, he will be able to live Liu Ziye's life as Zhao Pan, and have an affair with his "sister" and "aunt".

Afterwards, power was delegated to the hands of those "insects", learning from "Jiajing" and engaging in "government by doing nothing".

"Insects" get power, they are happy.And he doesn't need to worry about anything, he is also happy to be a "faint king" and enjoy himself in the palace all day long.

But in this way, the people in the world will suffer.

Li Qingwei didn't want to do this, he wanted everyone to live a better and more dignified life as much as possible.

Zhao Ke could see that Li Qingwei was preoccupied, but what was going on in his head, Zhao Ke was still unable to figure it out.

But Zhao Ke didn't care, no matter what he did, she would support him.

Because she believed that what Li Qingwei was going to do would never be wrong.Even if it is "seeking to usurp the throne".

Zhao Ke is a little self-deprecating now, she doesn't know why she has such a strange idea.

Maybe it's because the Song Dynasty is in dire straits now.

My two younger brothers have just learned to crawl. If Li Qingwei can assist his father as Zhao Pan to assist his government, then what if he is named "Regent"?
In terms of dealing with the people of the world, Zhao Ke feels that Li Qingwei is more competent in "managing politics" than her father. Li Qingwei may lack the ability to govern the country, but it doesn't matter, as long as he is close and appoints virtuous officials, it can fully make up for it .

Since ancient times, there have been many talents in Jiangdong, but it is a pity that many children from poor families have been excluded by the powerful and not valued.

But Li Qingwei has "three hearts" that her father does not have.

The first is the "ambition" to compete in the world.Now, including his father, the high-ranking officials of the Song Dynasty are thinking of "a corner of peace" and have no intention of the Northern Expedition to restore the rivers and mountains.

The second is the "confidence" to expel the Tartars.Perhaps only this "His Royal Highness King Wei" among the high-level officials of the Song Dynasty still believes that he can drive away the barbarians and restore the rivers and mountains.

The third is the "determination" to reform.This is simply due to Li Qingwei's intention to use Song Ci to set things right. He even pleaded guilty by "throwing himself into a trap" and helping Song Ci "win the trust".This is all his determination to clarify Yuyu.

Sometimes Zhao Ke was thinking, if he is really her "brother", and he is in charge of the Song Dynasty, maybe he can really turn things around.

A few days later, Zhao Ke and Li Qingwei got off the boat from Jinling City, then traveled by land, changed to a small boat, and first arrived at the Phoenix Village outside the city of Hangzhou to settle down.

This is Li Qingwei's consideration, after all, there can never be two Ziwei Empresses in Lin'an City.

Li Qingwei originally wanted Zhao Ke to sneak into Lin'an in a disguise, but Zhao Ke played up his temper and just didn't hide it.

She also swore that she was Xiaolongnv, Yang Guo's "aunt", not Zhao Ke, and that Li Qingwei had mistaken her.

Li Qingwei felt that Zhao Ke was addicted to being a "little dragon girl".When she arrived in Lin'an City, she still didn't want to change her identity back.

Li Qingwei couldn't resist her, so he could only go to the Phoenix Group to settle down first. He first went to Lin'an City to investigate the situation, and then he directly "stealed" Xiaolongnu out, and Zhao Ke had to go back if he didn't go back.

However, Zhao Ke did not take Li Qingwei to the inn, but came to a small house in Fenghuang market town.

Li Qingwei asked: "Aren't you going to stay in a hotel? What are you doing here?"

Zhao Ke took out a key from her pocket at this time, and she opened the courtyard door.

Zhao Ke said, "Come in!"

Although this small courtyard looks ordinary from the outside, the decoration inside is very elegant. Although it is uninhabited, it is very neat and clean.

Li Qingwei followed behind Zhao Ke, looked around and said, "Is this your outer house?"

Zhao Ke said: "Of course it is! In the past, when I sneaked out from time to time, I would come here to stay for a few days."

Li Qingwei looked at the elegant courtyard and said, "But no one lives here, so it's quite clean."

Zhao Ke said: "This is what I ordered. Every seven days, the nursing mother will send someone to clean it. But it seems that it should have been cleaned a few days ago. Now I can't go back to Lin'an, so I just happen to stay here."

At this time, Zhao Ke winked at Li Qingwei and said, "Do you want the officials to stay overnight at the slave's house tonight? Let the slave's family relieve the tiredness of the busy officials?"

If it were normal, Li Qingwei's evaluation of her would be "boring".

But recently Zhao Ke is really "not very obedient", so he wants to play tricks on her.

Seeing Li Qing approaching step by step, he picked Zhao Ke's chin and said: "Since the little lady's kindness is hard to refuse, then I will reluctantly accept the little lady's kindness."
