Zhao Tai left Zheng Qingzhi's mansion and walked back with Chenghu.

He walked through the busy streets, surrounded by people and loud voices, but he seemed to be unable to hear or see them. It seemed as if everything around him was speeding up and he was the only one slowing down.

"My lord! My lord!" Chenghu shouted after him.

Zhao Tai finally came back to his senses, "Oh."

"Sir, what should we do now?" Cheng Hu asked.

Zhao Tai let out a heavy breath and followed me to the post house to have a look.

At that moment, Zhao Tai and Cheng Hu headed towards the city where the Mongolian envoys were staying.

The two were walking on the street when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps, and a large number of Song soldiers came running, quickly separating the crowd and clearing the street.

"It's the Mongols!" Cheng Hu pointed into the distance and gritted his teeth.

Zhao Tai looked up and saw a group of Song soldiers escorting several people wearing Mongolian costumes passing through the street.

"They came out of the palace!" Zhao Tai was shocked when he saw the direction they were coming from, "It's over, the emperor and the Meng envoy met, maybe they have reached an agreement!"

Zhao Tai saw Kuo Duan riding on the horse from a distance and felt that he was forced to do nothing. He might want to follow Ban Dingyuan's allusion.

Kuoduan and Shi Miyuan negotiated and reached various agreements in private. As long as they are finalized with the Song emperor at today's court meeting, the alliance to unite with the Song Dynasty to destroy the Jin Dynasty will be concluded.

At that time, Wokuotai sent troops to the south, and the Southern Song Dynasty sent troops to the north. The Jin Kingdom was attacked from two sides, and there was only a dead end.

After Mongolia destroys the Jin Kingdom, they can go south to attack the Song Dynasty, and the prosperous Jiangnan will become the pasture of Mongolia.

But what Ling Kuoduan didn't expect was that there were actually Song ministers in the main hall who came to stop the Mongolian-Song alliance.

This caused a change in the ironclad matter. The Emperor of the Song Dynasty was frightened and could only wait for another day to discuss the matter.

Kuo Duan walked past Zhao Tai with a dark face, not noticing that Zhao Tai was staring at him.

"Why is your face so dark?" Zhao Tai was shocked and saw Kuoduan's dark face without any trace of joy, which made him a little confused.

If Mongolia and Song Dynasty reach an alliance, the Mongolian envoy should be happy, why does it seem like his father is dead?

At this time, Zhao Tai followed the team all the way to the post house and saw more than ten Mongolian soldiers standing guard at the door.

This forced Zhao Tai to give up his plan to become Ban Chao. If he rushed in to kill Meng Envoy, he would definitely be the first to be hacked to death.

Zhao Tai thought of poisoning again, but it would not be easy. The other party would definitely be on guard. When the time comes, he would be fooled by the poison, and he would be tricked into it.

He observed outside the post house for a while and saw that the other party was heavily guarded. After thinking about it, he found that he seemed to have no other choice but to find Zheng Qingzhi.

"Let's go!" Zhao Tai looked at it for a while and said in a deep voice: "Let's go eat first and then think of a way to drag Zheng Qingzhi into the water."

Zhao Tai knew that Zheng Qingzhi did not want to go against Shi Miyuan, but he only had this channel now and had no other choice but to entangle Zheng Qingzhi.

Now in the Song Dynasty, the peace faction is in power, Shi Miyuan controls the court, and the only person who can change Shi Miyuan's decision is Zhao Yun.

And Zhao Yun is within the high walls of the palace. It is almost impossible for Zhao Tai to see Zhao Yun on his own. If he breaks in, he will definitely be hacked to death as an assassin.

Therefore, he had no choice but to approach Zheng Qingzhi. He was involved in political affairs and had participated in supporting Zhao Yun. Only he could bring Zhao Tai into the palace and meet Zhao Yun.

In addition, as deputy prime minister, only when Zheng Qingzhi took a clear-cut stand against the alliance with Mongolia to destroy the Jin Dynasty, could Zhao Yun listen to Zhao Tai's words.

However, Zheng Qingzhi read the letter and had people chase him away, which showed that he did not dare to go against Shi Miyuan, and Zhao Tai had no clue if he wanted to change him.

At this time, at noon, Zhao Tai led Cheng Hu to find a restaurant and sit down.

The waiter asked with a smile: "Guest, what do you want to eat?"

Zhao Tai said: "Two bowls of noodles, two flatbreads, and a plate of fennel beans."

Although Zhao Tai is now rich, he does not spend lavishly and eats relatively simply. With the remaining money, he wants to buy some properties in Lin'an.

In a short time, the waiter brought the food to him. Zhao Tai put the noodle bowl in front of him, picked up the chopsticks and played with it a few times before eating.

At this time, he had not taken two bites, but suddenly he listened to the discussion at the table, "Have you heard? Today, His Majesty summoned the Mongolian envoys to join forces with Mongolia to destroy the Jin Dynasty. Li Yushi refused and died directly in the main hall."

"Who did you listen to?"

"Everyone was brought out! I saw them all!"

"The Jin Kingdom has a feud with us. Wouldn't it be nice to unite with Mongolia to destroy the Jin Dynasty? It's just a way to avenge the shame! Why can't Li Yushi figure this out?"

"You have no brains. Li Yushi is a Jinshi. They are all Wenquxing. They are dragons and phoenixes among people. What you think of can't be imagined by him? I heard that Li Yushi is worried that our Song Dynasty will be deceived by the Mongols and repeat the past.

The mistake of joining forces with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty!"

"You mean Jingkang's shame!"

"No! Back then, the Song Dynasty united with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty. Once the Liao Kingdom was destroyed, the Jin Kingdom turned around and attacked Bianjing! These Mongols are just like the Jin people. They are both foreigners and they certainly have no credibility. If we unite with the Mongols, we will

When the Jin Dynasty is destroyed, they turn around and attack Lin'an. Will we, the people, suffer?"

"Oh! Listening to what you said, Li Yushi died for the Song Dynasty and for our people?"

"No!"

"Alas! Good people don't live long!"

Zhao Tai listened to their conversation and stopped eating noodles. He suddenly stood up, took the noodle bowl and sat down at the table where they were discussing.

"Brothers, you don't mind if I sit here!" Zhao Tai smiled slightly.

The two people who were talking saw Zhao Tai suddenly sitting opposite, and they immediately stopped talking. They were a little uncomfortable and looked wary. However, out of politeness, one of them nodded, "Brother, you can sit down if you want!"

Zhao Tai called the waiter, "Bring me two jars of rice wine, two pounds of pork, and two hard vegetables!"

After Zhao Tai finished his instructions, he looked at the two of them with a smile, "Brothers, you just said that Li Yushi was dead, what's going on? Can you tell me? I'll treat you two to a drink!"

The two looked at each other, and one of them said: "This morning, Your Majesty received the Mongolian envoys and wanted to form an alliance with Mongolia. Li Yushi failed to persuade him and he bumped his head against a pillar and died."

Zhao Tai did not expect that such a thing would happen in the court of the Song Dynasty.

"Li Yushi is really a loyal and righteous person!" Zhao Tai couldn't help but sigh. When the country is in crisis, there are always people like this who stand up. They may seem stupid, but it is precisely with people like this that the country and nation can be prosperous.

Come through the darkness again and again.

At this moment, Zhao Tai thought of Yue Fei, Wen Tianxiang, and the 100,000 soldiers and civilians who jumped into the sea in the battle of Yashan.

The two of them also sighed, "Isn't that right?"

At this time, the waiter brought the food and wine, and Zhao Tai and them ate and drank. After a few glasses of wine, the men became familiar with each other even though they were not familiar with each other.
Chapter completed!
