Zhao Changqing, who had never had nightmares before, actually had nightmares during the critical period of the Four Nations Alliance's expedition. It can be imagined how concerned he was about this matter.

In later generations, people spread this incident widely, saying that the emperor had nightmares because he felt guilty for killing his own brothers.

Of course, there are also quite superstitious people who believe that this is really the relatives of the Human Emperor who came to seek revenge on him.

There are many records of this kind of statement in unofficial history.

However, no matter what conjectures these later people made, they did not conduct comprehensive research on the situation at that time, and did not take into account how much pressure Zhao Changqing was now.

It is normal to have nightmares while sleeping when you are stressed.

In the night, a thin layer of fog arose, like a gauze curtain, covering the bodies of Zhao Changqing and He Ning.

The weather in June is not very cold at night. What's more, they are both land gods. Even if they walk in the night, they will not feel any discomfort due to the darkness of the night.

Zhao Changqing took a deep breath. He likes to go to the Imperial Garden when he has nothing to do, because the air here is very sweet and the aura here is the richest in the entire capital. He said to He Ning: "Zhuge Liang has already

We have been dispatching troops for a long time, but apart from the news of massive defeats and repeated retreats and passive defenses, there is no other news coming from the front line. What do you think Zhuge Liang is doing?"

Although women were not allowed to interfere in family and country affairs, Zhao Changqing wanted to express the doubts he had kept in his heart to see if others had the same doubts.

He Ning heard the worried tone in the emperor's words and comforted him: "Your Majesty, don't worry. I remember that Prime Minister Zhuge seemed to be serving as the military advisor to your Majesty when he was the King of Qi, right? Zhuge at that time

The Prime Minister always made perfect plans, no matter whether he was fighting external battles or fighting domestic enemies, and he even assisted His Majesty in completing the plan of cheating death and causing the Jin army to be defeated. Therefore, I thought, Prime Minister Zhuge should not be like this.

Yes. He must have other ideas, otherwise, he should have asked the imperial court for help."

Hearing what the queen said, Zhao Changqing felt that it made sense. After all, Zhuge Liang was not an ordinary person. Even if the army he commanded was not a match for the enemy, it should not be defeated every time. There must be something fishy in it.

.

Moreover, Zhuge Liang mentioned the phrase "Your Majesty has nothing to worry about" in the military newspaper. What this means is very simple. The fact that he can say this proves that he is confident. In this case, it is better to go all out.

Assist him, give him complete trust, and let him do it boldly. Even if he loses the Jin Kingdom in the end, it doesn't matter. At worst, he has to start all over again, and there is still plenty of time.

Thinking of this, Zhao Changqing joked to He Ning: "Zhuge Liang wants to ask for help from the imperial court, but the imperial court can also provide reinforcements. We, the Wei Dynasty, don't have many troops to assist Jin anymore, and everything has to be seen."

It depends on whether Qi Qi can completely end the war in Chu State in a short period of time. Otherwise, the Wei Dynasty is likely to plummet in this battle."

Even if it is a joke, it is also true.

This is what Zhao Changqing is most worried about.

Unknowingly, he regretted being so eager for quick success. If he adopts a cannibalization plan for Chu State, although there will not be much gain within a few years, it is the safest way.

The two sat in a pavilion and chatted all night.

Early the next morning, Zhao Changqing changed into his dragon robe and attended the court meeting.

Because he has been paying attention to the domestic political situation and foreign wars these days, he holds court meetings more frequently.

During the court meeting, he heard more than once that the war in Jin State had worsened. At present, Jin State had lost a quarter of its territory.

The war had just begun, and the Wei Dynasty had already paid such a price, which made the people in the country not optimistic about this battle.

All civil and military officials also felt that this was a disaster for the Wei State and it would be difficult to survive.

Seeing the negative mood of the ministers, Zhao Changqing was a little depressed. He stood up from the dragon chair and cheered up the officials and said: "I know what you are thinking in your hearts. You will think about what is happening to the Wei State today.

Such a huge disaster should have a great impact on the national strength. But I want to tell you that as long as we can survive this disaster and defeat the coalition forces of the four countries, we, the Wei Dynasty, will become the most powerful country in the world.

, when that time comes, it will be a piece of cake to dominate the world!"

All civil and military officials felt that His Majesty's words were very reasonable.

Because that's the truth.

The four-nation coalition seems to be menacing, but as long as they are defeated, they will definitely be severely weakened. At that time, the whole Wei State, the army and the people are united, and the morale is greatly increased. They will definitely take the opportunity to sink their boats and gradually annex other countries.

However, how to defeat the four-nation coalition has become the top priority now.

After the court meeting was over, Zhao Changqing wanted to catch up on some sleep, but as soon as he fell asleep, he was woken up again. In his dream, he still saw those who died during the Xuanwumen Incident.

Zhao Changqing, who lost his sleepiness, wanted to find something to do, so he actually handled the memorial himself.

When later generations learned about this scene, they all praised Zhao Changqing greatly.

At that time, the four-nation coalition attacked Wei, and Wei also attacked Chu. Under such complicated circumstances, it was not easy for the Wei emperor to be able to personally handle the memorial despite his busy schedule. This was a manifestation of diligence and love for the people.

..

They would never have guessed that Zhao Changqing was really just doing these things out of boredom.

When Zhuge Liang set off for the expedition, Zhao Changqing thought over and over again and decided to let Xiang Yu follow him.

It would be good to let him absorb Zhuge Liang's thoughts of loyalty and patriotism. What's more, Zhuge Liang is so smart and has many means to eliminate Xiang Yu's innate domineering spirit. In this way, this person can use it with confidence.

As for Li Cunxiao and Li Yuanba, Zhao Changqing left them in the capital and appointed them as his personal bodyguard commanders.

In other words, they are now the leaders of the palace guards.

Li Yuanba, as described in the novel, has no brains. He is relatively simple and honest, and is prone to murder.

As for Li Cunxiao, this is a smart move.

After processing the memorial, Zhao Changqing and the Li brothers took a walk.

When Li Yuanba saw Zhao Changqing, he smiled honestly and kept saying the words "Your Majesty, Your Majesty" in his mouth, which made Zhao Changqing look very happy.

Zhao Changqing said to Li Cunxiao: "Do you know why I always like to conquer in person?"

Li Cunxiao also had this doubt. He deliberately learned about His Majesty's history and found that His Majesty the Emperor often went on personal expeditions. It was not necessary for an emperor to go on personal expeditions. He could just let his generals go. Anyway, the merits would be counted in the history books.

A share goes to the emperor's head.

With this doubt in mind, he asked puzzledly: "The general... I don't know."

Zhao Changqing smiled and said: "That's because I don't want to just stay in this palace, it's too boring. So sometimes I just want to find a reason to go out and see the colorful world outside."

Li Cunxiao was surprised and said: "Your Majesty, is this really true?"
