At this moment, Chen Zhengdao couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, his heart pounding like a drum, making a thud.

His opportunity really came, and Mr. Fang was really predictable.

When everyone saw the empress dowager fainted, they all stopped thinking and said, "Imperial Doctor, Imperial Doctor..."

Not long after, the imperial physician came hurriedly, carried the medicine box and carefully examined it, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just anger that strikes the heart, but it needs good care.

However, the empress dowager was worried about the empress dowager and fainted. This made people admire him. The relationships in the palace have never been so harmonious.

But... what is now facing the Lords is a headache.

Yao Wenzhi sighed in the eyes of everyone, "At present... she has to be a silence. His Highness, Prince Beihai, please take the cavalry camp to the ferry south of the Yellow River, control the naval army at the ferry and arrange defenses on the south bank to prevent accidents. In addition, he ordered people to urgently transfer the military horses from Hangu Pass to Mianchi for reinforcements. Although... it was too late, but now... hey..."

He looked around the dukes who looked dead. In fact, everyone understood that military actions were just to make up for the loss, and there was little meaning, but we could not do nothing.

Yao Wenzhi stumbled and continued with difficulty: "The most difficult thing at the moment is, if Liu Bi really held the Empress Dowager hostage, what would the court react? Should we resolutely encircle and rescue the Empress Dowager, or should we be afraid of the enemy and negotiate peace with Liu Bi."

In fact, he didn't need to ask, and he knew the answer, because no one had the courage to order the encirclement and suppression, and even the empress dowager would not dare to issue this order at the risk of great unfilial piety. The state governs the world with filial piety. If the empress dowager has a good or bad reputation because of the suppression, then who can bear this responsibility?

In front of them, there is actually only one way to go, that is... peace talks.

Just a peace talk with a traitor, this is probably another big joke. How can the people here explain to the world in the future?

Yao Wenzhi sighed and instantly felt how many years old he was.

Because he knew very well that the so-called encirclement and suppression and peace negotiations were actually meaningless, because the final result must be that he dare not suppress and did not dare to reconcile, so he could only drag it until Liu Bi had enough time to contact the Hu people or the Beiyan people who had recovered.

...

At this time, in a bedroom in the harem, the Queen Mother had already gone to bed.

Zhang Jing walked in carefully and tucked the empress dowager's bedding. The empress dowager suddenly opened her eyes and shouted softly: "Zhang Jing."

"The slave is here." Zhang Jing seemed worried. Everyone thought the Empress Dowager was worried about the Empress Dowager, but only he knew that the Empress Dowager was worried about someone else.

The Empress Dowager exclaimed and seemed to calm down slowly: "It has come to this point, and you must think of a solution no matter what. You... go to Mianchi to represent Ai's family and find out about Kaizhi's whereabouts. If he dies..."

Speaking of this, Empress Dowager Mu suddenly had murderous intent: "Then no matter who he holds in his hand, the Ai family will order the suppression, and will not let Liu Bi die without a place to bury him."

"But if I am lucky and my son is still alive, you go and contact Liu Bi. In the name of the Ai family, no matter what conditions he proposes, as long as he can save Kaizhi's life, the Ai family will accept everything. The most important thing is that people can come back safely. Do you... understand?"

Zhang Jing hurriedly said, "Empress, I understand. I am afraid that if this is the case, it will inevitably cause people to be suspicious."

"As far as this is concerned, what else can you be suspicious?" Queen Mother Mu shook her head and smiled bitterly, "If Kaizhi has any special features, will everything else have any meaning? Ai family...oh, go, go!"

Zhang Jing did not dare to hesitate anymore and said, "Empress, take care of yourself!"

After saying that, he turned around without hesitation and walked away quickly.

……………………

At dawn in the morning, the fog in Mianchi is very heavy because it is adjacent to the Yellow River. Chen Kaizhi's hearing is excellent, so he can clearly hear the turbulent river sound.

However, he was awakened by the early morning exercise.

The Qiu Ba and the others were fully armed early in the morning. In this cold winter month, they started running in the jar city in the morning fog.

They shouted slogans and ran around the walls of the urn city, each of them full of energy.

More than eight months of training have made this life deeply penetrate their bones. Even if you go down the mountain, the training will proceed as scheduled, but... you cannot practice the firearm now, otherwise the movement will be too loud and you will be afraid of causing unnecessary trouble.

However, Bu Cao usually doesn't fall behind. Even after eating, he will be afraid that he will escort the Empress Dowager to set off.

Chen Kaizhi was infected by the atmosphere and wanted to run away. Unfortunately, after he washed up, an eunuch came and said, "Chen Xiu, the Empress Dowager, please ask Chen Xiu to accompany him for breakfast."

"That's it." This may be an excellent opportunity for others, but Chen Kaizhi felt a little embarrassed. The thing he disliked the most was that others would eat and stay by his side. Even eating became a supporting role. He could not let go of his hands and feet, and he was even likely to be able to watch others eat. Even though this was a huge opportunity to show off, it was still... a difficult thing.

But there was obviously no room for him to choose, so he had to say helplessly: "Please lead the way."

Chen Kaizhi followed the eunuch out of the Wengcheng, and went all the way to the county government office of Mianchi County. Here, he had been surrounded by King Zhao's guards.

Chen Kaizhi and the eunuch entered the hall one by one, and saw that it was decorated. The county magistrate of Mianchi County and several county officials who met yesterday were waiting outside respectfully.

Chen Kaizhi obeyed silently for them, and suddenly the Empress Dowager came. They were afraid that they were even more nervous than themselves. Most of the Empress Dowager would not summon them, but even if they didn't need to summon them, they had to wait outside and have dinner? That's not to think about it. If you can find an opportunity to eat a few dry buns and steamed cakes, it would be a blessing. The biggest possibility is that you will always stand here and serve and be able to curry favor with the Empress Dowager. It is definitely a matter of no idea, but you are afraid of causing trouble.

However, at this time, an eunuch came out from the inside and said to the county magistrate and county magistrate, the chief clerk, "Your Highness Zhao has an order. You are very hard, and you don't have to serve here. It's getting late. You all hurry up and eat something to fill your stomach. When Feng Jia is going to travel later, you will be sent to you."

When the officials of Mianchi County heard this, they immediately received a general amnesty and said, "Thank you for your grace."

His Highness Zhao still remembers the inconspicuous little person like them, which is enough to make them so flattered that they are so grateful.

Chen Kaizhi passed by them and then entered the palace, and saw the Empress Dowager being hugged by the eunuchs and palace maids.

At this time, I saw plates of exquisite pastries and some delicious side dishes on the desk. The Queen Mother was old and could not kneel down, but just stood cross-legged in front of the desk. Chen Zhijing stood by, as if he was talking to the Queen Mother in a low voice.

Chen Kaizhi politely said: "I have met the Empress, Empress Jin An."

The Empress Dowager raised her eyes and looked at Chen Kaiyi: "I slept well last night?"

"I'm sleeping well." Chen Kaizhi answered honestly.

The Empress Dowager said, "But Ai's family was not sleeping well. Before the hour of Mao, he heard a faint sound of exercises in the distance, which was as loud as thunder."

Well……

This is a bit embarrassing.

In fact, Mianchi County is not big. Although it is a little distance from the county, I think that when the night is late, a group of Qiuba shouting horns to practice, and there will be some noise.

Chen Kaizhi said: "The ignorance of the soldiers is the fault of the ministers. I must restrain the discipline."

The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "It's not that you blame you, but that's just treating you honestly. The Ai family is old and surviving. In fact, they can't sleep well. This is good. After hearing this sound, you can avoid sleeping. However, King Zhao praised you just now, saying that you are strict in governing the army, and this warrior camp has a legacy of the Siliu Camp."

Chen Kaizhi looked at Chen Zhijing sideways and nodded to Chen Zhijing.

Although the person of Zhao is very cunning, he is still very good at dealing with smart people. If it were other ordinary people, he would only know how to slander behind his back and would be very annoying. Even if the King of Zhao wanted to mess with you, he would not do such small moves. On the contrary, as long as he could not kill you with one blow, he would always be willing to give you some sweetness, which would not only show his own demeanor, but also numb you and reduce your defense against him.

At this time, a eunuch gave the Empress Dowager a snack. After eating it, the Empress Dowager suddenly said, "Look, this King Zhao is also a person who is interested. I have praised you a lot along the way, but why did the Ai family hear that King Zhao didn't like you before?"

This sudden sentence shocked Chen Kaizhi.

Damn, do you want to do this? Empress Dowager, you look like a torch. You are in the distance, but you can clearly understand the matters in Luoyang City. I, Chen Kaizhi, are very convinced, but do you want to say everything?

Chen Kaizhi was ashamed and hurriedly said, "There is no such thing. Your Highness, King Zhao, is a generous elder, not to mention that he is a noble man of heaven and noble. He is so noble. He is just a editor with a huge difference in status. Your Highness..."

"Yes, Queen Mother..." Chen Zhijing was also shocked by the Queen Mother's words, and seemed a little panicked, so he quickly explained: "My mother, there is absolutely nothing like this."

The Empress Dowager just smiled.
