Doctor of the Great Song Dynasty: In the beginning, Li Qingzhao and Li Qingzhao made a private decis

"Fan Lang! Let's go our separate ways. I'm afraid we may never see each other again!"

Outside the Great Wall, Yelu Nanyin looked at Fan Zheng with tenderness.

Fan Zheng also said with reluctance: "Going to the Western Regions to establish a country is quite risky, you must be careful!"

If the Liao princess was to go to the Western Regions to establish a kingdom, he would naturally not take it to heart. However, if he wanted his own woman to go to the Western Regions to establish a kingdom, then he was naturally quite worried.

"It doesn't matter. This is not only Nanyin's duty as a princess of the Liao Kingdom, but also the kingdom Nanyin has built for our children!" Yelu Nanyin touched her belly and said tenderly.

After continuous hard work, she recently missed her period. After Fan Zheng personally took her pulse, he confirmed that she was pregnant.

"I was the one who destroyed Western Xia. The defenders there have some friendship with me. If you encounter difficulties that you cannot overcome, you can retreat to the former territory of Western Xia, which will allow you to temporarily overcome the crisis!" Fan Zheng warned.

Yelu Nanyin said confidently: "Don't worry, Mr. Fan. My strength is intact now, and I have brought so much gunpowder. The cities in the Western Regions will not be able to defeat me."

There was no war in the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun at that time. When Yelu Nanyin evacuated Yanyun, he brought with him a complete crew, as well as a large amount of gunpowder, money and food.

In terms of equipment, it is enough to crush the Western Regions countries which are still nomadic tribes. In addition, she has been operating in the Western Regions for many years, so it can be said that there is no obstacle to establishing a country in the Western Regions.

What's more, she was confident that she could establish the Western Liao Dynasty which was no less powerful than the Liao Dynasty.

Yelu Nanyin had the demeanor of an empress. She looked at Fan Zheng deeply, memorized Fan Zheng's appearance in her heart, then mounted her horse and headed west.

After Yelu Nanyin's figure disappeared, Fan Zheng looked at the ruined Great Wall and felt very excited. The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, which had been ceded for a hundred years, had finally returned to the Central Plains.

"General Fan, the twelve golden medals issued by the court have arrived, requiring you to withdraw your troops immediately and return to the court." Song Jiang looked at Fan Zheng with a worried look on his face.

As a person who was recruited by the imperial court, Song Jiang has always been very wary of the imperial court. However, the fact that the imperial court now issues twelve golden medals in one day makes Song Jiang feel uneasy.

Fan Zheng waved his hand and said, "No problem. Pass the order down. All troops should speed up the repair of the Great Wall passes and guard against the enemy in the north."

"Yes!" Lin Chong and other generals immediately accepted the order.

"Then Fan Shuai you......." Song Jiang frowned.

Fan Zheng looked back to the south and said, "The emperor has issued twelve golden orders in one day. As a minister of the Song Dynasty, I must obey them. I will set off to return to Bianjing now!"

"Commander Fan, be careful!" Song Jiang opened his mouth and thousands of words came together into one sentence.

At that moment, Fan Zheng turned his horse and headed towards Bian Jing.

........................

The Liao Kingdom went to the capital!

Yelu Yanxi was living a life of drunkenness and dreams. Ever since the Liao Kingdom suffered a series of defeats and lost its birthplaces such as Tokyo, Yelu Yanxi had been using alcohol to numb himself and hiding like an ostrich.

"Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Princess has surrendered the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and is retreating towards the Western Regions!" Suddenly, Yelu Dashi, a member of the Khitan royal family, came hurriedly to report.

"This is impossible!" Yelu Yanxi was immediately furious. Yelu Nanyin was his biological sister. He entrusted her with an important task and asked her to garrison the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun to defend against the Song Dynasty, but she retreated without a fight.

Yelu Dashi said helplessly: "There are rumors that Princess Nanyin loves the evil doctor Fan Zheng and gave up the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun for love!"

"How dare Nanyin do this? She is the princess of my Great Liao!" Yelu Yanxi gritted his teeth. As Yelu Nanyin's brother, he naturally knew that Yelu Nanyin had not married for many years and her heart was on the evil doctor Fan Zheng.

But he could never accept Yelu Nanyin's betrayal. The Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun were the foundation of the Liao Dynasty's power. Without the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, even if the Liao Dynasty defeated the Jin Dynasty, its strength would be greatly weakened.

"Your Majesty, Princess Nanyin has only retreated a short distance. We should send troops to chase her!" Yelu Dashi suggested.

Yelu Yanxi suddenly fell silent. Although he hated Yelu Nanyin's betrayal, Yelu Nanyin was his biological sister after all, and the two grew up together and had a deep relationship.

In addition, Yelu Nanyin's action of voluntarily giving up the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun was too strange, which made Yelu Yanxi hesitate.

"Your Majesty, Princess Nanyin sent someone to deliver a letter!" Suddenly a Liao official reported.

"Present it!" Yelu Yanxi said gritting his teeth. This time he wanted to see what else Nanyin could explain.

The Liao official said in embarrassment: "The messenger said that Princess Nanyin has an order to personally deliver it to Your Majesty."

Yelu Yanxi waved his hand, and soon the messenger came to Yelu Yanxi. After seeing Yelu Yanxi himself, he presented Yelu Nanyin's letter.

Yelu Yanxi opened the letter angrily, and when he saw the contents of the letter, it was like a bucket of cold water poured on him.

"Retreating to the Western Regions and rebuilding the Liao Kingdom in the Western Regions is simply stupid. How could you believe in Fan Zheng's evil prescription so easily?" Yelu Yanxi roared. He finally understood the reason why Yelu Nanyin behaved so strangely.

"Rebuild the Liao Kingdom in the Western Regions!" When Yelu Dashi heard Yelu Yanxi's words, he was struck by lightning. He felt as if he had lost something.

"The princess voluntarily withdrew from the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun in exchange for the evil prescription of the evil doctor Fan Zheng, and made the Song Dynasty promise not to interfere in the war between Liao and Jin. She wanted to tell Your Majesty that Nanyin did not betray the Liao Dynasty. She wanted to continue the glory of Your Majesty Dao Zong and find a way out for the Liao Dynasty!" The messenger repeated Yelu Nanyin's words one by one.

Yelu Dashi said angrily: "What nonsense! Your Majesty is the emperor of the Liao Dynasty. Yelu Nanyin is just a princess. How can she establish a country in the Western Regions? She was seduced by the evil doctor Fan Zheng! I beg Your Majesty to order Princess Nanyin to return and concentrate our forces to fight against the Jin Dynasty!"

Yelu Yanxi fell into deep thought. At this moment, a piece of information came and broke his peace.

"The Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty issued twelve golden orders a day, ordering the evil doctor Fan Zheng to withdraw his troops and return to the capital!"

Yelu Yanxi breathed a sigh of relief. The 200,000 soldiers and horses of the evil doctor Fan Zheng had put too much pressure on him. Moreover, it was the evil doctor Fan Zheng's record of repeatedly destroying other countries that made the threat to the Song Dynasty greater than that of the Jin Dynasty.

Now, because of the affair between Yelu Nanyin and the evil doctor Fan Zheng, a rift has arisen between the emperor and his ministers of the Song Dynasty, and Yelu Nanyin has played an indispensable role in this.

After a long silence, Yelu Yanxi waved his hand weakly and said, "Nanyin is just a woman. Even if she is recalled, it will be of little use. Since she wants to leave a retreat for the Liao Kingdom in the Western Regions, let her go west!"

"Your Majesty, please think twice!" Yelu Dashi said anxiously.

Yelu Yanxi waved his hand and said, "The biggest enemy of Liao is now Song and Jin. It is really not appropriate to start a civil war again. Moreover, Nanyin has been operating in the Western Regions for many years. It may be a way out!"

If it was just the Jin Kingdom, even if the two had a deep brotherly love, Yelu Yanxi would naturally not let Yelu Nanyin go easily. However, the Song Dynasty in the south was also eyeing the Liao Kingdom. Just as Yelu Nanyin said, even if the Liao Kingdom faced a siege from the Song and Jin Dynasties, it might not have much chance of winning. Letting Yelu Nanyin return to the Western Regions was a precaution and gave the Liao Kingdom a way out!
"Yes!"

Although Yelu Dashi was unwilling, he had no choice but to accept the order.

………………

At the same time, Wanyan Aguda of Liaodong also received the news that the Song Dynasty had recovered the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and there was an uproar.

"The Song Dynasty actually obtained the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun without losing a single soldier!" Wanyan Aguda said in disbelief.

He led his troops to attack Liao, but it took him a lot of effort to conquer the Liaodong region. However, the evil doctor Fan Zheng took action and conquered the same area of ​​territory without any soldiers.

“Brother-in-law is awesome!”

Qin Hui, the Song envoy, raised his arms and shouted, fearing that the Jin people did not know the relationship between him and Fan Zheng.

Wanyan Aguda couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. They had heard that Fan Zheng obtained the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun at the cost of his chastity and seduced the Liao princess Yelu Nanyin. It's too weird that you, her brother-in-law, can still be so excited.

However, no one looked down on Qin Hui. Firstly, Fan Zheng was the military god of the Song Dynasty, who had conquered several countries in a row. Qin Hui's brother-in-law relationship with the evil doctor Fan Zheng gave him a lot of credit. Secondly, Qin Hui was an envoy of the Song Dynasty. Now that the Song Dynasty was in its heyday, Qin Hui's status naturally rose.

Qin Hui said proudly, "Lord Wanyan! According to the Song-Jin alliance, the Song will attack the Liao from the south and capture the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and the Jin will attack the Liao from the east. The two countries will jointly destroy the Liao. Now it is time for the Jin to fulfill the alliance."

Wanyan Aguda couldn't help but look embarrassed. According to the Song-Jin alliance, this was indeed the case. However, the Song Dynasty recovered the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun peacefully. Not only did the Song Dynasty's strength increase greatly, but the Liao Dynasty's strength was also not damaged. Instead, it withdrew a large number of troops from the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and concentrated its efforts on strengthening the protection of the grassland. This might make the Jin Dynasty face even greater resistance.

Wanyan Aguda smiled and said, "Of course, the Jin Kingdom will definitely fulfill the alliance as scheduled! Zongjun, please send the Song envoy away!"

After Qin Hui came to the Jin Dynasty, he had a good relationship with Wanyan Aguda's eldest son and was mostly received by Wanyan Zongjun.

"Thank you, Prince Wanyan!" Qin Hui said respectfully.

Upon hearing what Qin Hui said, Wanyan Wuqimai's face changed. In the customs of the Song Dynasty, the crown prince is the heir to the throne. According to the customs of the Wanyan tribe, the system of brother-to-brother succession is implemented, so Wanyan Wuqimai is the next heir.

However, Wanyan Wuqimai was unable to refute Qin Hui. After all, Wanyan Zongjun was indeed Wanyan Aguda's eldest son. According to the customs of any country, he could also be entitled to the title of crown prince.

After Qin Hui and Wanyan Zongjun left, Wanyan Wuqimai could not wait to say: "Brother, since the Song Dynasty has already conquered the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, why don't you let the Song Dynasty send troops to the grassland to attack the Liao Dynasty together?"

Wanyan Aguda shouted coldly: "Foolish! Recovering the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun is the obsession of the Song people. If the Song people are allowed to send troops to the grassland, then who will own the territory of the Liao Kingdom? By then, it will be easier to invite the gods than to send them away!"

Wanyan Aguda had long regarded the Liao Kingdom as his forbidden territory, so he naturally did not want the Song Dynasty to interfere in the grassland. What's more, he wanted to defeat the Liao Kingdom and continue to make the Song Dynasty submit to him.

If the Song Dynasty sends troops to the grassland and divides the grassland forces, the power of the Song Dynasty will be further strengthened, and the Jin Dynasty will no longer be able to fight against it and can only surrender.

"My royal brother is wise!" Wanyan Wuqimai said admiringly.

Wanyan Aguda waved his hand and said, "Send an order to all the Jurchen tribes to gather heavy troops. This time, the Jin Kingdom must speed up the destruction of the Liao!"

"Yes!" Wanyan Wuqimai bowed.

………………

"What, Prince Wanyan is not the next emperor of the Jin Dynasty!" At the banquet, Qin Hui's face changed.

Wanyan Zongjun explained: "Brother Qin, you don't know that the Jin Kingdom has always followed the rules of the grasslands. The next heir to the Jin Kingdom is my fourth uncle Wuqimai."

Qin Hui was stunned and suddenly burst into tears while staring at Wanyan Zongjun.

"Brother Qin, what's the matter? Are you homesick?" Wanyan Zongjun was stunned and asked in surprise. Qin Hui shook his head and said, "No, the Crown Prince will die soon. Are you sad about losing a close friend?"

"My death is not far away?"

Wanyan Zongjun was shocked when he heard this, staring at Qin Hui and said, "Could it be that Brother Qin has also received the true teachings of the evil doctor Fan Zheng and can see the date of Zongjun's death?"

Qin Hui shook his head and said, "No, I don't have the ability of my brother-in-law. However, Your Highness, do you know that our Taizu also established the system of brother-to-brother succession? Why did it change to the system of father-to-son succession? Now the throne belongs to Taizong's lineage."

Wanyan Zongjun's face suddenly turned embarrassed. It turned out that Wanyan Zongjun was from a small tribe and naturally did not understand these things. However, now he was the crown prince of the Jin Dynasty, so he naturally had to understand the stories of the Song Dynasty. Only then did he know the dirty things of the Song Dynasty royal family.

"Could it be that the candlelight and axe shadow are real?" Wanyan Zongjun said in surprise.

Qin Hui lowered his voice and said, "This is a taboo in the Song Dynasty, and it is an open secret in the Song Dynasty. If Qin and the prince had not hit it off at first sight, he would definitely not have admitted it. Not only Emperor Taizu, but even the prince Zhao Dezhao probably died at the hands of Emperor Taizong. Prince Wanyan should not repeat the same mistake as before."

Wanyan Zongjun was shocked and denied it, "Impossible! It is a tradition of the Jurchens that the younger brother inherits the throne after the elder brother's death. It is impossible for my fourth uncle to harm me."

The Jurchens today are united as one and have not yet become suspicious of one another. Wanyan Zongjun and Wanyan Wuqimai have a very good relationship.

Qin Hui sneered, "Since ancient times, the struggle for the throne has always been bloody and cruel, with brothers and fathers killing each other everywhere. After Emperor Taizong ascended to the throne, he forced the crown prince Zhao Dezhao to death and passed the throne to his own son. Why do you think Wuqimai will definitely pass the throne to you after he ascends to the throne?"

Wanyan Zongjun fell silent for a long time, then wavered and said, "It's impossible. My fourth uncle once swore in public that he would abide by the rule of succession from brother to brother and pass the throne to me."

Qin Hui did not say anything, but threw a Tang History to Wanyan Zongjun and said, "Back then, Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, once asked his son, Li Tai, how he would treat his brothers after he succeeded to the throne. Li Tai said that he would kill his son and pass the throne to his younger brother. Do you think Li Shimin believed it? Do you believe it or not?"

Wanyan Zongjun suddenly fell silent. If it were before, he would naturally trust his fourth uncle Wanyan Wuqimai, but now under Qin Hui's instigation, he couldn't help but waver in his heart.

Although he also doubted Qin Hui's position, he found it difficult to resolve Qin Hui's intentions under the guise of friendship and in the face of the bloody evidence in history books.

Qin Hui said, "Your Highness, look around the world. Xixia and Liao were also nomadic countries. They also practiced the rule of brother-to-brother succession. Why did they change to father-to-son succession? Because for a country, father-to-son succession is the way to long-term stability."

"If Wanyan Wuqimai keeps his promise and passes the throne to the crown prince, will the crown prince continue to follow the rule of brother-to-brother succession after ascending the throne?"

Qin Hui's last words were like a sharp arrow that struck Wanyan Zongjun's heart. He wanted to firmly believe that he would abide by it, but when he thought that the Jin Dynasty was about to inherit the Liao Dynasty, he couldn't help but waver in his heart because of such power.

Even he was shaken and didn't trust his own brother. How could he believe that Wanyan Wuqimai would abide by the rule of brother-to-brother succession?

Wanyan Zongjun was silent for a long time, then suddenly became furious and said, "I knew that you Song people had bad intentions and actually tried to stir up trouble in my Jin's internal affairs. This prince will not fall for it."

"I, Qin Hui, have been open-hearted to the prince. Don't regret it when your head and body are separated in the future!" Qin Hui was heartbroken.

Wanyan Zongjun left angrily at that moment, but Qin Hui, who was scolded, did not get angry. Instead, he showed a strange smile. He knew that he had planted a seed of doubt in Wanyan Zongjun's heart.

Although the conversation between Qin Hui and Wanyan Zongjun was secretive, there is no wall that is impenetrable, and the news soon spread among the upper echelons of the Jin Dynasty. The Jin Dynasty, which had been united, was suddenly divided into two. Some of them insisted on the Jurchen tradition, implemented the system of brother-to-brother succession, and supported Wanyan Wuqimai.

Some also believed that since the Jin Dynasty had already been established, it should have the appearance of a country. Since the system of brother-to-brother succession had been proven to be unworkable in the Song, Liao and Xia dynasties, the Jin Dynasty should also implement the system of father-to-son succession and support the eldest son Wanyan Zongjun.

"The envoy of the Song Dynasty is so insidious that he dares to instigate us uncles and nephews. Your royal brother will go and kill that dog thief Qin Hui right now!" Wanyan Wuqimai stood up angrily and raised his knife to kill Qin Hui.

"stop!"

Wanyan Aguda scolded angrily.

Wanyan Wuqimai was stunned for a moment, and said with a sad face: "Don't you think my brother doesn't believe me? How can my fourth brother live in this world with dignity?"

Wanyan Aguda stopped Wanyan Wuqimai and said, "Fourth brother, what are you talking about? If I don't trust you, how can I pass the throne to you in the future? Although Qin Hui is treacherous, he is an envoy of the Song Dynasty. Now the Song-Jin alliance is still in place. He is also the brother-in-law of the evil doctor Fan Zheng. If he kills the Song envoy without authorization, it will lead to revenge from the Song army and the evil doctor Fan Zheng. I am afraid that the good situation of the Jin Dynasty will be ruined."

Qin Hui alone is naturally insignificant, but the Jin Kingdom, the Song Dynasty behind him, cannot be provoked for now. Now a lot of Jin Kingdom's aid depends on the Song Dynasty. In addition, the evil doctor Fan Zheng's fierce record of destroying countries naturally makes Wanyan Aguda cautious.

“But…” Wanyan Wuqimai frowned.

"No buts. Pass the order. The system of succession from brother to younger brother is the foundation of the Jin Dynasty's strength. No one is allowed to change it!" Wanyan Aguda gave the order in public, strongly supporting Wanyan Wuqimai's position as heir.

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

All the ministers of the Jin Dynasty obeyed the order, and under the strong suppression of Wanyan Aguda, Wanyan Wuqimai's position became more stable than ever before.

Wanyan Aguda was a great ruler, so he was naturally well aware of this phenomenon. However, facing Fan Zheng's evil plan, he was powerless. After all, there was only one person who could hold the throne, and people's hearts were different. Even Wanyan Aguda understood that the system of brother-to-brother succession would come to an end one day, and the throne of the Jin Dynasty would return to the system of father-to-son succession.

If possible, he would naturally want to pass it on to his son, but on the one hand, it has been the Jin Dynasty's way of inheritance for hundreds of years, and on the other hand, the Jin Dynasty is now facing a powerful threat from the Liao Dynasty and must unite. If there is civil strife at this time, all efforts will be in vain.

Therefore, there is only one heir to the Great Jin Dynasty at present, and that is Wanyan Wuqimai.

However, Wanyan Aguda could suppress the ministers of the Jin Dynasty, but he could not suppress his own son. After all, there was the case of the Candlelight and Axe Shadow in the Song Dynasty, not to mention the death of Crown Prince Zhao Dezhao. All of these made Wanyan Aguda's legitimate son worried, so they began to secretly form a group.

The internal division of the Jin Dynasty was inevitable. Wanyan Aguda saw this in his heart and he had only one solution, which was to attack the Liao Dynasty immediately. Only by continuous fighting could the Jin Dynasty continue to be united and the internal conflicts of the Jin Dynasty be diverted.

At that moment, Wanyan Aguda immediately gave the order to conquer the Liao Kingdom. Immediately, the Jin army was dispatched to launch a more fierce attack on the Liao Kingdom.

The two forces of Wanyan Wuqimai and Wanyan Zongjun both wanted to prove themselves, and they attacked fiercely, forcing the Liao Kingdom to retreat step by step.

However, the Song Dynasty adhered to Fan Zheng's orders, only deployed defenses along the Great Wall, and watched the war between Liao and Jin without taking any action.

The head coach Fan Zheng had naturally already obeyed Zhao Xu's twelve golden rules and returned to Bian Jing!

"Evil Doctor Fan Zheng peacefully recovered the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun! He was recalled by the Twelve Golden Medals!"

The people of Kaifeng had complicated expressions on their faces when they saw Fan Zheng's return.

The evil doctor Fan Zheng is invincible and has conquered other countries many times. The government and the public are very confident that Fan Zheng will recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and they all believe that he is the best candidate.

In fact, the evil doctor Fan Zheng did not disappoint the expectations of the court and the public, but no one expected that the evil doctor Fan Zheng would use such an evil method to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.

"I am deeply moved by your sacrifice for the country. I am sorry that Fan Zheng has been wronged this time."

Inside the Chuigong Hall, Zhao Xu said with a strange expression on his face.

He never expected that Fan Zheng would use his sex life to exchange for the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. If he had known it was so simple, he would not have been so entangled.

Fan Zheng's face darkened, and he said coldly, "My Fan family has been deeply blessed by the emperor for generations. We are willing to sacrifice our lives for him. I have not let down the world or your majesty, but I have let down my wife. Please forgive me, I will go back and explain to my wife."

Zhao Xu said with an embarrassed look: "I don't know where Princess Yelu is now. I personally arranged for you to get married. The Li family is very righteous and will definitely understand."

Fan Zheng waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your concern. However, Nanyin has now followed my humble advice and retreated to the Western Regions, preparing to find a way out for the Liao Kingdom."

Zhao Xu couldn't help but look at Fan Zheng with envy. The most talented woman in the world and the most beautiful princess of Liao Kingdom both fell in love with him, and he didn't have to worry about jealousy. Thinking back to how chaotic his harem was back then, it was simply frustrating to compare with others.

"Then my dear Fan, please go back quickly!" Zhao Xu wanted to end this awkward moment and waved his hand to let Fan Zheng go back home.

"I'm leaving!" Fan Zheng turned and left.

When he turned around and looked at the officials who were pretending to be deaf and dumb, he snorted coldly and said, "There are treacherous officials who are ruining the country. If the court loses the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, you will all be the eternal sinners of the Song Dynasty!"

Cai Jing and others lowered their heads even lower, and only raised their flushed faces after Fan Zheng left.

"Your Majesty, Fan Zheng is proud of his achievements and is truly unruly!" Cai Jing couldn't help but slander.

Zhao Xu also stared at Cai Jing and others who had submitted a memorial to impeach Fan Zheng, and said coldly: "If you recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, I will find that you are unruly!"

Cai Jing was suddenly speechless.

........................

In the Fan Mansion, Fan Zheng returned home and the entire Fan Mansion couldn't help but cheer.

Fan Chunli and Ma also showed joy on their faces, but then they thought of something, their faces changed, and they shouted angrily: "Rebellious son!"

Fan Zheng was being scolded by his parents in the front yard, and finally he was able to get away and return to the backyard, only to see Li Qingzhao sitting there with a face full of resentment. When she saw Fan Zheng coming back, she stood up and said, "I respectfully welcome the triumphant return of General Fan!"

Fan Zheng's face froze, and he quickly said, "My lady, you are too polite. I have been away at the battle for many days, but I miss you day and night."

"Why? Sister Nanyin is so beautiful, and she's a princess, with a much higher status than mine. Isn't that enough to satisfy my husband? I wonder where sister Nanyin is, and she has made great contributions to the court in recovering the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun. I am willing to give up my status as the principal wife, which can be regarded as serving the country." Li Qingzhao said sarcastically.

Upon hearing this, Fan Zheng said sternly, "Rumors, these are all rumors! My husband and Princess Yelu are innocent, and all of them are rumors. Recovering the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun is a national event, how can we treat it as a joke."

"really!"

"Of course it's true. The Liao people only agreed to return the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun because they were afraid of the Song Dynasty's military affairs and didn't want to fight on two fronts. How could they return it just because of a love affair? Isn't this a joke?"

Fan Zhengyi said frankly that as a man, he knew very well that he would never admit it if he had not caught them in bed. Besides, he knew that all Li Qingzhao needed was an excuse to comfort herself!

Li Qingzhao burst into tears and cried, "If my husband deceived me, then I will deceive him for the rest of my life."

Fan Zheng hugged Li Qingzhao tightly in his arms and said solemnly: "Don't worry, you and I will be together forever."

Fan Zheng sighed helplessly. He knew that Li Qingzhao did not believe his lies, but chose to hypnotize herself to believe them.

After that, Fan Zheng completely gave up state affairs and devoted himself to accompanying Li Qingzhao in Fan Mansion, no longer paying attention to the sudden changes in the world. (End of this chapter)
