You Miao did not expect that the two of them would quarrel in just a few words. Today, Zhao Chao has been very irritable from the very beginning, and hurriedly said: "I will talk about this later, don't get angry."

"I've done everything you asked me to help." Li Zhifeng said, "When you keep your promise, don't shirk. You are the emperor."

Zhao Chao Senran said: "Because I am the emperor, the courtier has never been qualified to let me fulfill anything."

"But I'm not your subject." Li Zhifeng replied.

Zhao Chao exploded in an instant, staring at Li Zhifeng, unable to say a word for a long time. You Miao wanted to persuade a few words, but suddenly felt that Zhao Chao had nothing to do with Li Zhifeng. So You Miao did not want to persuade him. Suddenly, there is a kind of gloating, wanting to see what Zhao Chao wants to do with Li Zhifeng.

Li Zhifeng always looked at Zhao Chao as if Mount Tai had collapsed to the top without changing its color.

Zhao Chao gasped for a while, calmed down, but nodded and said, "You're right."

"You promised me 50,000 soldiers." Li Zhifeng said, "You can't go back on your word."

Zhao Chao smiled and said, "I really can't help it. You lead your own troops, and you know best in your heart that there are only 60,000 people who can fight. Where do you want me to gather 50,000 people for you?"

Li Zhifeng originally thought that after he recovered the Central Plains, he would borrow troops from Zhao Chao, borrow 50,000 troops and horses, and go north to fight Daleko. But since Daleko participated in the war in the Central Plains, Zhao Chao attributed this matter to the Northern Expedition and had to solve it together. That said, it doesn't make sense. You Miao analyzed this method and felt that doing so would be a good thing.

One is to advance, and the other is to merge into the Northern Expedition, or borrow troops.

You Miao then said, "Let's just say that first." Then he gestured to Li Zhifeng with his eyes. Li Zhifeng didn't say anything and nodded.

Zhao Chao finished the glass of wine and said, "It's over, I'm leaving."

You Miao wanted to stay, but Zhao Chao got up and said, "I have to criticize the book when I go back, and come back another day when I have time."

You Miao had to send Zhao Chao out. Zhao Chao had a dark face since he left, so he didn't say much more.

After sending Zhao Chao away, You Miao felt a headache and explained to Li Zhifeng in the courtyard. Li Zhifeng thought about it for a long time, nodded and said, "In other words, after the Northern Expedition, you can take you away."

"We won the Northern Expedition." You Miao corrected: "We can get out of here."

Li Zhifeng said happily: "Yes, I didn't expect it."

When Qiao Rong saw Zhao Chao left, she entered the courtyard, her face pale. You Miao and Li Zhifeng stopped talking and looked at Qiao Rong.

"What did he say to you?" Qiao Rong asked.

You Miao knew what Qiao Rong wanted to ask about Nie Dan, and replied, "My eldest brother will release it."

Qiao Rong said, "I'm not asking about your eldest brother, nothing else?"

You Miao was startled and asked, "What else?"

Someone outside reported that a palace servant came in.

You Miao was inexplicable, and the palace servant smiled and said, "General Li, Master You. Congratulations."

"Is there an imperial edict?" You Miao asked in surprise.

Didn't Zhao Chao just leave... How come there is another imperial decree.

You Miao said sternly: "You Miao is no longer in the court, and the grass-roots You Miao accepts the decree."

Gong Ren said: "Lord You, please don't be too polite, it's your majesty's order. Your Majesty has been in Moyan Tower for a long time, and he learned that Miss Qiao was never married, so he sent a special child to discuss with Sir You, and wanted to use the empress's gift..."

With a buzzing sound in You Miao's head, the world went round and round, and her eyes went black for a while, and she said in disbelief, "What's going on?!"

"Don't marry." Li Zhifeng rejected the palace servant neatly, and the palace servant's expression changed immediately. You Miao immediately knew that this matter was no trivial matter. How could he say that

Qiao Rong also changed her face, and hurriedly said: "General Li, you can't say that..."

The palace servant was only surprised for a moment, then changed his face and said with a smile: "Master General is joking, Master You, it is a great joy for Your Majesty to see the Qiao family. I have to be called your uncle, and His Majesty is here today, too. I wanted to mention this marriage to you personally, but I couldn't say it for some reason, Lord You, please see when you entered the palace to discuss it, and you can return it if you are young."

You Miao said: "Please report back to Your Majesty, You Miao will definitely enter the palace for an interview on this matter."

The palace servant nodded and left. You Miao was about to be killed by Zhao Chao. He frowned and said to Qiao Rong, "Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Qiao Rong looked sad, sighed, and did not speak.

That night, You Miao and Qiao Rong talked all night.

"Go to sleep." Qiao Rong finally said.

"How could I fall asleep?" You Miao said helplessly.

After the emperor asked for the book, it was not a good choice, but the Qiao family was chosen. The Qiao family had no power, and at best they were a downtrodden gentry in the south of the Yangtze River. If Zhao Chao would marry Qiao Rong, it must have come for him. It's not good to provoke anyone, so why did you provoke Zhao Chao

However, You Miao thought about it, no one could be blamed for this.

After all, Zhao Chao knew what happened in Maocheng. To blame, I can only blame Nie Dan and Qiao Rong for getting too close. So, why did Zhao Chao marry Qiao Rong? Did you even care about Nie Dan's face

"Do you like him?" You Miao finally asked after listening to him all night.

Qiao Rong didn't answer and sighed.

You Miao was slightly surprised: "Do you like him?"

"I can't talk about liking him." Qiao Rong said, "But I don't hate him either. The last time I went to see him, he made it very clear."

"How do you understand the law?" You Miao asked.

Qiao Rong said: "In short, don't worry about it, I will marry. I am willing."

You Miao said: "How can you not care? Yu Si, you are my cousin, and I am your mother's family. Yu Gong, once this marriage is over, our family will be tied to Zhao Chao's boat, and we will never think about it again! "

Qiao Rong said: "The emperor asked me to marry, can I not marry? I don't want to marry, let alone Yangzhou Maocheng, the whole Apocalypse, who would dare to marry me?"

You Miao said, "My eldest brother can marry you."

Qiao Rong said: "Save a little, he won't marry me, you men are all virtuous."

You Miao heard something again, frowned and asked, "What did eldest brother tell you?"

Qiao Rong gasped for breath, and said after a long time, "Miaozi, go to rest first, my sister is tired. Let's talk about it tomorrow."

You Miao knew that Zhao Chao proposed marriage, and he definitely knew it. It was impossible to decide a lifelong event in one or two days. And Qiao Rong knows this matter in her heart, and it is impossible for her to be in a mess until today. Abandoning the emperor to marry Qiao Rong, whether You Miao can agree to this matter is another matter. The key is to ask Zhao Chao why he wants to marry her.

After You Miao returned to Yangzhou, for some reason, the news spread, and many people came to visit in a few days. Whether Nie Dan is released or not depends on Zhao Chao's attitude towards the previous incident and his reconciliation with the ministers.

Now the court is still tense, and the ministers are not only in danger, but also hate Zhao Chao, the emperor, to varying degrees. Sooner or later there must be a solution. The political affairs post was still vacant, and everyone agreed that You Miao would still enter the court. Zhao Chao only has such a close friend left, and it is impossible to let him go home to farm. Besides, Li Zhifeng was still leading the troops, "How is Li Yan doing?" You Miao asked.

"I don't communicate with us anymore." Lin Luoyang said helplessly: "Li Yan has the final say in the Hanlin Academy. He also takes care of the government. If you don't go to the court, I'm afraid it will become the same as in Beijing."

"Impossible." You Miao said.

He naturally knew that Lin Luoyang was trying to provoke him, otherwise, in his capacity, it would be absolutely impossible to say such words, and Zhao Chao must have some scruples about Li Yan. Unlike his father Zhao Hao, Zhao Chao could hide in the harem to cultivate immortals and concoct pills without going to court.

Li Yan was favored, and there must be collusion between the ruler and the minister. Zhao Chao must rely on him.

No one knows about this yet. You Miao stayed in Yangzhou and did not leave. First, in order to turn around the matter of Nie Dan, and secondly, he had to give Zhao Chao an answer.
