"You will regret it!" Looking at the other party's firm little face, Li Zhang sighed. No matter how smart the little lady Cao was in front of him, her life experience was still too shallow. She thought that she would take revenge on Li Zhi and those who made fun of her, but she didn't know that in the end it would be her own suffering. Life in the palace was not that easy, especially a woman who was neglected by His Emperor, even if she was the queen.

"I don't know if you will regret it, but at least I don't regret it now." Mrs. Cao spoke indifferently, but finally bowed to Li Zhang and said, "I know that Li Duwei reminded me with kindness, but the little woman has made up her mind and has no nostalgia for the outside world. As for whether she is life or death in the palace, I don't care about it!"

Hearing the other party’s words, Li Zhang sighed inwardly, shook his head helplessly and said, “Forget it, I hope you will take care of yourself in the future!”

After Li Zhang said that, he turned around and was about to leave, but he didn't expect that Xiao Madam Cao suddenly called him and said, "Prince Li stayed!"

"You have something to do?" Li Zhang turned around and looked at her and asked.

I saw that Miss Cao also showed a hesitant expression. After a while, she said, "Emperor Li is the person who is most familiar with Your Majesty. If Your Majesty blames you in the future, please ask Emper Li to take care of you. The little girl thanks you as if she is sincere!"

Li Zhang was stunned when he heard the other party's words, and then frowned, because the young woman he had met for the first time actually asked for her care, and even told her name in the end that this was actually to bring the two closer together. Although this was normal, Li Zhang still felt bad.

Li Zhang frowned and pondered for a moment, and finally suddenly raised his head and stared at the young lady Ruxin and said, "Do you know why I ran all the way to Yongcheng and endured my disgust and dated Li Zhi and others?"

Li Zhang's inquiry also made Ruxin stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Vice Li was naturally ordered by His Majesty, so he came to Yongcheng to investigate these matters."

"Your Majesty's order is actually secondary!" Li Zhang shook his head and continued, "Your Majesty and I are cousins. Before my aunt and Your Majesty recognized each other, I knew this secret. As his cousin, I grew up with him since I was a child, so I have always treated him as a brother!"

Li Zhang took a long breath when he said this, and then said again: "Your Majesty is actually a person with a miserable life. He has been separated from his biological mother since childhood. Empress Dowager Liu is busy with government affairs and has little time to care about him. She finally waited until he grew up and had a deep relationship with Empress Zhang, but unfortunately Empress Zhang died of difficult labor. This made Your Majesty heartbroken. She had no intention of establishing another post. However, her aunt and the ministers in the court kept persuading him. In the end, he could only obey, but he left all the matter to others, which made you take advantage of the loophole."

"What does Li Duwei want to say?" Cao Ruxin frowned when she heard this. She had heard of some of the things Li Zhang said, but she knew about them for the first time, but she didn't know what Li Zhang wanted to express?

Li Zhang's face suddenly became heavy at this time, and he stared at Cao Ruxin with a sharp look and said again: "I just want to tell you that as my brother, I hope Your Majesty can have a happy family, especially the queen is his wife and the mother of a country. If possible, I naturally hope that your relationship will be harmonious, just like Your Majesty did to Queen Zhang before. Can you understand what I said?"

"I understand, thank you, Duwei Li!" Cao Ruxin also understood what Li Zhang meant at this time, and immediately bowed deeply to him.

Li Zhang did not seem to have a clear answer to Cao Ruxin, but in fact he had already pointed out his own thoughts. In order to make Zhao Zhen's family happy, he could help Cao Ruxin in some things, and even persuade Zhao Zhen to develop a relationship with her, but the premise is that Cao Ruxin must treat Zhao Zhen wholeheartedly, otherwise Li Zhang will be the first to deal with her.

Li Zhang nodded with praise when he saw this. He talked to smart people with ease. Cao Ruxin should be the smartest woman he has ever seen. Even Qingzhi and Yan Niang are not as good as her in this regard, but a woman who is sometimes too smart may not be a good thing.

When Li Zhang said goodbye and left, Cao Ruxin actually sent him to the gate of the courtyard. At this time, Cao Yan was also anxiously walking outside the gate of the courtyard. He was worried that Li Zhang would have any conflict with his daughter, and he was even more afraid that Li Zhang would ask something.

However, when Cao Yan saw that Li Zhang was actually sent out by his daughter, and the two of them had a calm expression and seemed to have nothing unpleasant to happen, this made him look confused. However, Li Zhang and Cao Ruxin did not explain. After saying goodbye to each other, Li Zhang also left the Cao family.

The next morning, Li Zhang and his group left the inn. He didn't want to disturb anyone, especially Li Zhi, so he chose to leave early in the morning. However, he didn't expect that just after they left the inn, there was a sudden sound of horse hooves coming from behind. Then Lao Dao's hateful face reached in through the car window and said, "Master, Li Zhi was chasing him from behind in a carriage."

"How could he know we left?" Li Zhang couldn't help but feel a headache when he heard this.

"Maybe he arranged people around the inn. I saw a few sneaky people wandering around the inn these days, but I wasn't sure, so I didn't do it either." Lao Dao smiled again, but looking at his appearance, Li Zhang suspected that this guy did it on purpose.

While talking, Li Zhi behind him was getting closer and closer, which made Li Zhang hurriedly order: "Go faster, I don't want to meet him again!"

With Li Zhang's order, the team immediately accelerated. The entourage brought by Li Zhang this time was riding horses, and his own carriage was also good, and the speed was much faster than ordinary carriages. So when he ran away, he threw Li Zhi's carriage farther and farther away, which made Li Zhang breathe a sigh of relief.

Maybe it was because he had no hope of chasing, or maybe he found that Li Zhang was deliberately avoiding him, and Li Zhi behind him slowly slowed down, which made Li Zhang in front breathe a sigh of relief, but then a melodious sound of Xiao came, as if to see Li Zhang off, and the sound of Xiao was melodious and melodious, like a song or a cry, making people unable to help crying when they heard it.

Unfortunately, Li Zhang couldn't feel the feelings in Xiao Sheng. He just wanted to escape farther away now, and it would be better not to see Li Zhi again. Speaking of which, this was the first time he ran away in such a mess. If people knew that the famous Li Zhang would be so embarrassed, he might laugh out loud, but now Li Zhang didn't care about this much.

Finally, Li Zhang finally escaped from Xiao Sheng's spread range. Xiao Sheng behind him was already inaudible, which made him finally breathe a sigh of relief. Then he wiped a cold sweat from his forehead. Li Zhi was so scary that he secretly swore in his heart that he would never step into Yongcheng in the future.

After leaving Yongcheng, Li Zhang and his group also traveled day and night, mainly because it was already winter now, and the weather became more gloomy the more we went west. It seemed that a heavy snow was about to fall. Li Zhang didn't want to be blocked by heavy snow, so he wanted to return to the capital as soon as possible.

Two days later, the gate of Tokyo was also far away, which made Li Zhang breathe a sigh of relief. However, just as they were about to enter the city, they suddenly found that the gate was blocked, and the old army lined up behind could not get through. In desperation, Li Zhang had to let Lao Dao go and inquire.

"Master, it's really strange. Several envoys from the Western Regions came to pay tribute in front of the city gate. The court sent people to greet them, so the city gate was blocked." After a while, Lao Dao rushed to report.

"Encil of the Western Regions?" Li Zhang also showed a surprised expression when he heard this, but he was not surprised at all. After all, the Song Dynasty had defeated Dangxiang, and most of the territory that originally belonged to Dangxiang fell into the hands of the Song Dynasty, and the passage to the Western Regions was also opened. It is normal for some small Western countries to come to pay tribute. After all, it would be beneficial to them to establish a good relationship with the Song Dynasty.
