In the early morning, Xiao Miaoqing had breakfast with his son Wang Jing.

She doesn't have to enter the palace today, so she has to deal with housework later and accompany her son to have a morning reading.

But her son was very conscious that even if she was not around to supervise, her homework would not be left behind.

The weather outside was good, but Xiao Miaoqing's brows frowned slightly, his eyes were a little dark, and he looked like he hadn't had a good sleep.

She had something tossed and turned at night, and when she closed her eyes, she dreamed.

I dreamed that after entering the palace one day, I was earned to a certain side palace, and then Li Li walked in and closed the door...

Or, after drinking tea, I felt sleepy and fell asleep unknowingly. After waking up, I found that the rice had become a cooker and became Li Li's woman.

I dreamed that I was taken into the palace and became Li Li's woman. I was very favored and soon gave birth to children.

Before she entered the palace, her son Wang Jing was sent to her uncle's house and was sent to her house. He lived with her since then and never met her several times a year.

All kinds of strange dreams made Xiao Miaoqing unable to fall asleep peacefully, thinking about his possible fate, and he was uneasy.

Yesterday, the words of Concubine Xue made her feel confused. She was miserable by the emperor and didn’t know whether to be happy or sad.

She has been the king? She has been mourning for three years, and two more years have passed. If she remarries, it is reasonable and no one can say anything.

Xiao Miaoqing also wants to find a support now. After all, Li Li and his wife’s care for her may not be able to continue.

So I want to remarry and find a partner to complete the rest of my life, because it is really hard to just pull my son by raising me.

After thinking about it for a night, Xiao Miaoqing now figured it out:

Li Li is not that kind of person. If you really want her, you will say it directly, you will not use any tricks or threaten her.

If she refuses, Li Li will not take revenge.

So I decided to let it go: Li Li didn't say it, everything was as usual.

Li Li mentioned it, that...

It is very hard to live alone with her son, and she doesn't know if she can keep being strong.

If Li Li wanted her, she would enter the palace, but the premise was that her son stayed by her side, rather than entrusting her to her uncle.

In this way, you don’t have to bear the burden of life alone, and your son doesn’t have to rely on others. If you often get along with the princes, your future life will at least be smoother.

Or, if she gives birth to children, Wang Jing will have more support in the future if she has the same mother and sister-in-law.

Xiao Miaoqing thought about it and finally calmed down. She felt that next time she would enter the palace as usual to be a female teacher for the princesses. If Li Li showed his attitude, she would admit it.

However, not long after my mind calmed down, I was disturbed:

What if Li Li’s dream talk is just a misunderstanding?

Then take this as nothing.

As the days pass by, there may be matchmakers coming to talk about the matchmaking.

Xiao Miaoqing is not opposed to remarrying now, but she knows that she cannot delay it. Otherwise, if she delays for a few more years, her face will age and others will not look down on her...

However, she was embarrassed to ask someone to speak out for a matchmaker. If she just waited for a matchmaker to come, she didn't know who the matchmaker came to speak out for.

Or, when others see her getting close to the royal family, they won’t have any thoughts. She just pulls her son alone, watching her son grow up and get married.

That means you have to support yourself for more than ten years.

Xiao Miaoqing looked at her young son and felt helpless. At this moment, a maid came in and brought a newspaper and a news.

"Miss Mother, early in the morning, a news spread everywhere in the city, which was very rumored and it was also published in the newspaper."

The maid put the newspaper in a tray and placed it in front of Xiao Miaoqing. Xiao Miaoqing reached out to hold the newspaper and asked, "What news is so circulating?"

The maid replied: "It was said that the court issued a manifesto and scolded Qi... and criticized Qi, saying that the king of Qi was incompetent and unruly, the court wanted to slander the people and punish them, and the emperor wanted to personally lead the army!"

Xiao Miaoqing widened her eyes: "The emperor personally fought for the army? Now? New Year's ago?"

......

The north wind was howling and heavy snow was flying. The northern border of Xuzhou and the Si River were surrounded by a vast army along the road.

On a mound on the side of the road, Li Li was braved by the wind and snow, and observed the surroundings with a thousand-mile mirror.

However, the wind and snow caused the vision to be blocked. He looked left and right, but he couldn't see clearly the situation within a radius of one mile.

Looking at the frozen Sishui River on the river, Li Li sighed: "This kind of ghost weather is in the north, and ordinary people think that the emperor is crazy."

Li Xin, who was with her side, heard her uncle laughing at herself and said, "I have been prepared for five years. Even if I go to the battle in the cold winter, the momentum of the King's army will not be blocked by the weather."

"Even if the Northern Expedition is won in the spring and summer season, everything is easy to say. If the battle is lost, some people will say bad things."

Li Li put away the thousand-mile mirror, looked at the marching team, and then looked at his nephew: "The Yellow River is frozen, and the front army should have crossed the river at this time, reaching the north bank, and approaching Liyang."

"Liyang is only a hundred miles away from Yecheng, and it's so lively now."

"Before our army's northern expedition, the proclamation was issued, so the Qi army was prepared to set up a formation in the Liyang area."

"In your opinion, where will the main force of the enemy be?"

Li Xin replied: "My nephew thought that the main force of the enemy's field battle was not in Liyang, or in other words, the main force of the enemy cavalry would not be foolishly guarding Liyang, but would cross the river, enter the boundary of Henan, and come to surrounded Wei and save Zhao."

Li Li nodded: "It's great, find them and annihilate them."

"Yes, the last general will take the order!"

Li Xin took the order as a soldier, bowed to his uncle, then said goodbye, rode a horse, and left with his entourage.

Li Li used the Thousand Mile Mile Mile again to see Li Xin and his entourage leave the team, meet with some of the cavalry walking on the periphery, and then head northwest.

The war began, and Li Li led the army to fight in person. His nephew Li Xin returned from Jiang Mian to go on a journey. He followed the army to fight. The crown prince Li Fang stayed in Huaiyin Supervisor.

There are only three adult men in the Li family, and now they each bear their own responsibilities.

Li Xin led a cavalry to cruising all over Henan, joining forces with the Henan garrison at any time to intercept the main force of the Qi army who crossed the river through the ice.

Although Li Li was the emperor in person, he did not need to charge forward in person.

He appointed three marching governors, commanded more than a dozen marching governors, and launched a full-scale attack on Qi State with three armies.

The front army (the front army in the middle route) had already set out in advance, crossing the river from the section of the Huatai River, attacking Liyang, the important place on the north bank. Li Li brought his troops as the central army, settled in the middle route, and dispatched the troops.

If the front army was defeated in Liyang, Li Li would personally deal with the counterattacking Qi army.

However, he did not think the other party had such a chance: the only one who was defeated in the decisive battle was the Qi army.

Therefore, Li Li hoped that the Qi army would gather troops, and then he used several large-scale decisive battles to directly annihilate the main force of the Qi army and break the Qi country's waist.

So, before the war, he issued a special manifesto and sent an envoy to Yecheng to declare war on Qi, so that the other party could have time to gather troops.

Moreover, the time he chose to go to the Northern Expedition was extremely special, in the cold winter.

Since the Jin Dynasty, the Southern and Northern Expeditions generally began in spring and summer, because the rain gradually increased at this time, and the water levels of rivers in Huaibei and Henan increased, making it easier for ships to sail.

In this way, the Northern Expedition Army could use ships to carry food, supplies, and soldiers, and carry out the Northern Expedition in a relatively time-saving manner.

But in winter, the water level of the river drops and many rivers cannot be navigated. At this time, the logistics difficulty of the Northern Expedition becomes greater, and more manpower and animal power are required to be invested to carry out land transportation.

At the same time, because the Yellow River freezes and the natural barriers become thoroughfares, Henan and Hebei are connected together.

The Northern Army with many cavalry can calmly cross the river and move south. A large number of troops do not have to stick to crossing the river at a certain ferry, and the marching speed will be increased.

Therefore, in the winter, the Northern Expedition was either a madman or a madman.

Li Li put away his thousand-mile mirror and walked down the mound, rode his horse, and walked forward along the team.

The purpose of choosing to launch an attack in winter is naturally the result of careful consideration.

The purpose is to wait until the surface of the Yellow River freezes, then his army can avoid the constraints of the key points of the Yellow River and cross the river calmly.

Without the constraints of each important matter, the Chu army after crossing the river can fight the enemy on the planned battlefield according to the plan.

The cold wind was blowing, and his face was numb, but Li Li's heart was very hot, because the wheel of history had turned to a critical moment.

After many days and nights, he dreamed of the unification of the world, and the nearly three hundred years of war finally ended.

The people live and work in peace, and the Central Plains are in peace, and there will be no more wars or disputes among the nations.

But to end the troubled times, military means must be used, so in Li Li's dream, there are always dreams of flags waving and spears like a forest.

Just as the poem by the poet Xin Qiji of the Southern Song Dynasty said: Iron Horse and Ice River come into my dreams.

He worked hard for many years and finally waited for the moment of the Northern Expedition, but he was a little nervous.

The college entrance examination candidate who has been studying hard for many years, after entering the examination room, sitting in his seat and watching the test papers in front of him, probably his mood at this moment.

So, what scores can you get this time?
