Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Defang came out of the Chongzheng Palace after going down to discuss matters, and Baili took the golden mace, "My lord, I am very happy again today."

"Of course, I haven't seen frequent reports of victory at the border. However, in the past month or so, our army has captured several cities, and the defenders in some places took the initiative to surrender. The battle is really smooth and smooth."

"That's really great! My lord, it won't take long for us to regain Yanyun."

"Yeah, I really hope to see Yanyun's success soon." Defang looked up at the sky, and put her hand in front of the jade buckle of her belt. "When that day comes, my father's wish will come true."

"My lord, I will."

"Baili" Defang said to Baili while walking, "Do you know that just now came another battle report, saying that because the Liao Kingdom was defeated in several battles, the Emperor of Liao sent Yeluxiu to stay in Nanjing to stop General Cao's attack. On the other side, Yelu Sezhen was appointed as the capital to resist the attacks of General Pan and others. Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu also announced his own conquest and was preparing to lead an army stationed at Tuoluokou with Empress Xiao to supervise the battle. All the troops from the north have been mobilized and headed south."

"Brother Yeluxiu? My lord, I heard that this person is very powerful."

"Yes, he is a fierce general of the Liao Kingdom, with few defeats. It seems that there will be tough battles to be fought in the future. I heard that the Liao Emperor appointed Lin Yaqinde to lead the army to garrison the coast of Pingzhou, in case our army attacked from the sea, but... Your Majesty has no plans for a sea attack yet. After all, the infantry army of the Great Song Dynasty is the strongest. The navy army has made great achievements in calming the south of the Yangtze River, such as conquering the Liao Kingdom in the north... Although it can open the sea portal of the Liao Kingdom, it cannot threaten it. What, once the Liao cavalry attack, the water army will be hard to resist."

"My lord, there are also many brave generals in Song Dynasty. General Cao, General Pan, General Li, they are all frontier generals, and they will surely win the victory without the navy."

"Yes, it will." Defang stretched out her arms, "It's been a long time since I heard so many good news about multilateral relations, ha! This meeting is really comfortable!"

"My lord, do you want to sit with your empress at Mingfang Pavilion today?"

"Of course, but instead of going to the pavilion, go to the garden. It's getting warmer today. How nice it is to drink scented tea and enjoy the green leaves in early spring."

"That's right, little one, go back and ask, the spring tea should be delivered in these two days."

"Well, that's great. The tea at this time is full of tender buds and leaves. It's very fragrant. The empress likes it very much."

"My lord, after a while the flowers all over the place will be blooming, but Ke'er can make some flower petal snacks. It's delicious."

Defang reached out to touch Baili's chin, "You bastard, you can't close your mouth when it comes to eating, hehehe" Defang patted Baili, "I'll let you eat when you go back, let's go back home."

"Yes, thank you, my lord"

The Defang sedan chair team returned to the palace. After getting off the sedan chair, Baili said, "My lord, the five selected children have been in the palace for more than a month. I think they are all good. Do you want to see them?"

"That's right, I almost forgot about this matter, let them go to the main hall after dinner today, the king and empress will take Xu'er and the others to have a look, and we will settle this matter today."

"Yes, my lord"

As soon as Defang and Baili Jiajun entered the mansion, the aroma of wine wafted in. Defang sniffed it, "Hmm! It smells so good. It seems that this drunk monkey found some good wine."

Baili pouted, "This stinky monkey just knows how to make wine."

"Huh?" Defang looked at Baili, "Listen to what you say, you will too?"

"Isn't it just putting medicinal materials and fruits in the wine, even the small ones."
