"Your Majesty! We already have enough power to help you escape from the prison! You can clear the king's side, and kill the rebels!" Wang Gui said.

"What did you say?" Zhao Chen still asked in disbelief!

He had listened to Wang Gui and Wu Jie just now, and knew that they had some power in their hands! But there is still a big difference between these powers and the power in Zhe Keqiu's hands! Zhe Keqiu originally had an army of 100,000, but Zhe Keqiu has recruited soldiers aggressively in the past six months, and now Zhe Keqiu has nearly 150,000 troops! In terms of overall strength, Wang Gui and Wu Jie couldn't compare with Zhe Keqiu at all!

"Your Majesty, General Wang is right. We do have enough power to help His Majesty! However, this power does not come from the two of us, but from other people!" Wu Jie said.

"Tell me!" Zhao Chen calmed down and said.

After experiencing so many things, Zhao Chen's mind has become extremely tough! In a short while, he calmed down, and all the excitement, excitement, doubts, etc. disappeared from his mind. He forced himself to calm down, forced himself to listen to their words, and then judge seriously!

"Your Majesty, the Jingyuan army has joined us!" Wang Gui said.

"Jingyuan Army? Is it Qu Duan?" Zhao Chen said.

"It's not Qu Duan, it's someone else in Jingyuan's army!" Wang Gui said.

"Who are they all?" Zhao Chen asked.

"Wang Shu, the counselor of Quduan, Zhao Zhe, the deputy envoy of Jingyuan Road Jinglue, and Liu Kai, the envoy of Jingyuan Road Zhizhi! The three of them came to Chencang County together on New Year's Eve to visit Li Gang and Lord Li! They have decided to be loyal to His Majesty, Help Your Majesty clear your side! So, I say we already have enough strength!" Wang Gui said.

"So it's the three of them!" Zhao Chen nodded slightly!

Wang Shu, Zhao Zhe, and Liu Kai, these three are all figures recorded in history books, and the most famous of the three is undoubtedly Liu Kai! Regarding the four ZTE generals in the Southern Song Dynasty, it is generally believed that they were Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Zhang Jun, and Liu Guangshi, but some people replaced Liu Guangshi with Liu Kai! The reason for this is mainly because Liu Kai's combat exploits are far better than Liu Guangshi's! Liu Kai participated in almost all important wars in the early Southern Song Dynasty, and won countless victories, far surpassing Liu Guangshi! It's a pity that Liu Guangshi is a close friend of King Kang. Liu Guangshi was named Jiedu envoy early on, and he was appointed as a junior teacher. In terms of official position and status, Liu Guangshi can almost rank among the top three of all generals in the Northern and Southern Song Dynasty for hundreds of years. In this respect, Liu Guangshi far surpasses Liu Kai!

After Zhao Chen came to Hanzhong, although he pretended to be crazy and foolish every day, hunted and did carpentry every day, he was also concerned about the general trend of the world, and he was also concerned about the important people in the world! These three people are all important figures in the Jingyuan Army, Zhao Chen never dreamed that the three of them would join him! He didn't even know that when he ascended the throne, Wang Shu already had the intention to take refuge in him! It's just that Wang Shu had no chance to get close to Zhao Chen at that time!

"So, Your Majesty, our strength is enough! What we need now is an opportunity! After the two of us arrived in Chencang County, we discussed with Master Li, and now we feel that the opportunity is coming!" Wang Gui said.

"What!" Zhao Chen was shocked again!

Wang Gui and Wu Jie began to speak slowly, while Zhao Chen listened carefully!

Gradually, Zhao Chen became more and more excited!

For the whole night afterwards, Zhao Chen stayed with Wang Gui and Wu Jie! They are all discussing, researching, correcting...

It was not until the next morning that Zhao Chen came out of the room!

*** ***

He didn't sleep all night, but his face didn't look haggard at all!

Seeing Zhao Chen coming out, Lin Bao had already greeted him, and said with a coquettish smile, "Your Majesty, you are awake! I have already ordered someone to prepare breakfast for you!"

Zhao Chen laughed loudly and said, "Then let's eat!"

Lin Bao knew Zhao Chen's habits, and understood that Zhao Chen would eat his own prey after hunting! So, early in the morning, Zhao Chen, Lin Bao, Kang An and a group of guards ate all kinds of prey together!

Zhao Chen has a gentle temperament. It is common for him to dine with Lin Bao, Kang An and others! On the one hand, he has no concept of hierarchy, and on the other hand, he also uses this to buy people's hearts! However, after the information on this matter reached Zhe Keqiu, Zhe Keqiu didn't care about it. Zhe Keqiu thought that Zhao Chen didn't know how to defend himself as a monarch and his ministers, and he was confused in doing things!

After breakfast, Zhao Chen took everyone to bid farewell to Changchun Temple, and galloped outside on horseback!

The scorching sun was rising in the sky, and the white snow on the ground could not be seen at a glance!

Zhao Chen seemed to be in a very good mood today, he couldn't help but roar up to the sky while riding a horse!

I have endured for a long time, I have been humiliated for a long time! Now things are finally changing!

He held the whip tightly, and couldn't help but wave it forward in the air! There was a crisp sound, and the Zhaoyeyu lion horse under his feet strode forward!

"The sky is high for birds to fly, and the sea is wide for fish to leap! I thought it would take a few years, maybe even more than ten years! They have planned so well! It won't take long! If nothing happens, it won't take long Yes! However, I still need to work hard, and I still need to do a lot of things! Relying on them alone, there are too many accidents, and there are still some tricks by my side! Only then can we successfully achieve our goals!" Zhao Chen was so excited!

"Your Majesty is so happy today?" Lin Bao rushed up and said with a charming smile.

"The weather is so nice today! I was suffocated to death a few days ago! Let's not go back to the palace and continue hunting!" Zhao Chen said.

"Okay! Your Majesty wants to hunt, so let's go hunting!" Lin Baomei laughed.

Now Zhao Chen led these people towards the east of Hanzhong. They galloped for tens of miles before stopping!

Zhao Chen spent the whole day hunting outside! At night, Zhao Chen settled down in the surrounding houses!

On the second day, Zhao Chen was still hunting outside, and he was still living in the surrounding houses the next night!

The same was true on the third day... For the next ten days, Zhao Chen actually stayed outside!

He hunted outside for ten days, did not return to the capital for ten days, and did not return to the palace for ten days, which was unique in the entire Song Dynasty! But none of the ministers thought there was anything wrong, and none of the ministers came outside to persuade Zhao Chen! They let Zhao Chen mess around outside!

Ten days later, Zhao Chen seemed to be tired, and finally returned to the palace, and started his life as a "carpenter" again!

With Wang Pu's careful teaching, Zhao Chen's skills are getting better and better!

Several times, Zhao Chen sent the finished works to Zhefu! Zhe Yueru saw Zhao Chen's exquisite workmanship and liked it in her heart, but she still persuaded Zhao Chen not to be obsessed with carpentry, but Zhao Chen didn't listen at all, and Zhe Yueru couldn't help it!

On the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month, Zhao Chen's wedding took another step forward!

This day is the day of the "big march"! The big levy is the levy of ordinary people, that is, the betrothal gift!

The emperor's big wedding, the dowry is naturally extremely expensive!

Censor Zhongcheng Han Ping, Minister of Rites Wei Ming, and Minister of Household Xue Rui came to Qianqing Palace to meet Zhao Chen and tell about it!

"Your Majesty, this is the list of betrothal gifts, would you like to have a look?" Han Ping said.

In the past, these people were respectful when they saw Zhao Chen, but it might be because of the New Year's Eve event. Although the three of them still looked respectful, their eyes were full of mockery and contempt!

"Don't read it! But this is my big wedding, the dowry should not be too light!" Zhao Chen said without raising his head while he was working as a carpenter.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Miss Zhe has a noble status, and she is Lord Zhe's beloved daughter, so the betrothal gift will naturally not be light!" Han Ping didn't bother to look at Zhao Chen, turned his eyes to one side, and said disdainfully.

At this moment, Han Ping only mentioned Zheyueru's noble status, and did not mention Zhao Chen at all!

Zhao Chen didn't seem to understand what Han Ping meant. He focused his eyes on a puppet he was making in his hand, and was engraving it there with a knife, ignoring Han Ping!

"Your Majesty, this is the letter of appointment. Would you like to take a look?" Han Ping said again.

"No need! It's really annoying! You quickly send the letter of appointment and ceremony to Zhefu, and don't bother me anymore!" Zhao Chen said impatiently.

In the Song Dynasty, a letter of engagement and a letter of ceremony were required for the dowry. After the dowry was delivered to the woman's home, the woman had to give a "welcome letter". These are basic etiquettes, even for the emperor's wedding!

Seeing Zhao Chen's impatient expression, Han Ping laughed out loud and strode outside without saying goodbye! Wei Ming and Xue Rui also ignored Zhao Chen, raised their heads and walked outside!

The three of them came to Zhe Keqiu's home with countless betrothal gifts, where they received a grand reception from Zhe Keqiu, and Zhe Keqiu also sent the letter of welcome from Zhe Keqiu's house to Han Ping!

Zhe Yueru hid in her boudoir this day and dared not come out! During this day, her fair face was flushed, and she was extremely shy! The betrothal gift from the palace has already arrived at her home, and now she is waiting for the announcement of the wedding date, and then the real marriage!

"Bodhisattva bless Yueru, let everything go smoothly!" In the middle of the night, she knelt on the bed and prayed again.
