The Chu Palace after the snow is silent, and the snow covers all possible sounds, and only wants to stay in a quiet scene. Therefore, when everything is silent, the slight creaking sound is particularly abrupt.

Maybe it was just for a while, maybe it was after staying for a long time, just when Ye Qingchuan was already quietly leaning against the dwarf plum tree and seemed to be compatible with the silent snow scene, but the abrupt creaking sound still disturbed Ye Qingchuan who was in a fugue.

Although the "creaking" sound made by stepping on the snow is very light, it is so harsh in this silent environment.

Ye Qingchuan, who was disturbed, couldn't help but look up at the person who came, and when he saw that it was Ye Qinghui, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

He was afraid, he was afraid that he would meet Old Man Du, and he was afraid that he would have nothing to say when he saw Old Man Du again. Fortunately, the person who came was not Old Man Du, but Ye Qinghui.

When I got up, I found that my hands and feet were numb from the cold. Ye Qingchuan didn't know how long he had been sitting here, but judging from his frozen hands and feet, I was afraid it wouldn't be just a short time.

Since I can't get up, I'd better sit. Ye Qingchuan leaned against the high wall very simply and raised his eyes to look at Ye Qinghui.

Since Ye Qinghui came over, Ye Qingchuan's various performances have fallen into his eyes, and he feels sorry for Ye Qingchuan in his heart, but he doesn't know where to start or where to start. Finally, when he saw Ye Qingchuan's red eyes, Ye Qinghui spoke, "Your Majesty, you are crying." ”

Simple comfort, straightforward statement, but really exposed Ye Qingchuan's injury. But Ye Qingchuan didn't agree, but said with a smile: "Frozen." ”

His hands were red from the cold, but the redness of his eyes was not as simple as being frozen. But he didn't want to say it, that is, he didn't want to take out what was on his mind. The simple thing is to bury the bitterness in the bottom of your heart.

Ye Qinghui understands Ye Qingchuan's approach at this time, they are friends, but they are also monarchs and ministers, usually Ye Qingchuan will not and does not want to show the bitterness in his heart in front of him, so it is already the limit to be able to see Ye Qingchuan's red eyes at this time. Since Ye Qingchuan would rather bury his suffering in his heart than mention it, he followed Ye Qingchuan's heart to be a monarch.

"Is there something wrong?"

Since Ye Qingchuan hinted that the relationship between him and Ye Qinghui at this time should be that of a monarch and a minister, he should put on a business-like appearance.

Ye Qinghui nodded, squatted down and was at the level of Ye Qingchuan, who was sitting, before he said: "The spies reported that someone went to Tongguan Town this morning to find Lin Haowen and others. According to the appearance described by the spy, there is no doubt that the person is a Ye madman. ”

"Is there any other news in the future?" Ye Qingchuan couldn't help but cheer up after hearing Ye Qinghui's report.

Ye Qinghui replied: "Not yet. ”

Perhaps due to the heavy snowfall, the news is no longer as timely as before, so the news that Ye Madman has left Tongguan Town has not been known to Ye Qinghui and them for the time being.

"He's going to unite the army. Ye Qingchuan said: "What do you think is the probability of his success?"

Ye Qingchuan casually guessed Ye Maniac's intentions, but he was interested in Ye Qinghui's analysis.

Ye Qinghui frowned and said thoughtfully: "If it was before, I dare to say that the probability of his failure is ninety percent, but this time the move of the army is too ambiguous, so I think failure and success should each account for fifty percent." ”

This is quite a conservative guess, but Ye Qingchuan nodded approvingly, and then corrected: "Actually, you started to say that you were wrong, even before, the probability of his negotiation success or failure is still."

Fifty percent each. Qiguo, ambition is never small. ”

"Keep an eye on Qijun and Ye Maniac, any movement between them must be reported in time. Ye Qingchuan commanded: "Moreover, start preparing to prevent their joint attack." After all, there's a 50% chance of that. ”

Ye Qinghui was ordered to make arrangements, leaving Ye Qingchuan alone to rub his hands and feet. He couldn't save face in the end, and would rather suffer this sin in vain.

In the next few days, Ye Qingchuan had already guessed that Ye Maniac had moved the Qijun when he learned the news that Ye Maniac had left Tongguan Town and returned, but what he didn't expect was that Ye Maniac would also bring the Jing Army and the Dart Sect with him when he returned to Tongguan Town. And this shows that the Qi Army, the Jing Army, and the Dart Sect want to join forces to deal with their Chu State.

In an instant, the embattled object was changed from the Jing army to the Chu army, and Ye Qingchuan was really convinced of Ye Maniac's eloquence in his heart, which was indeed a distressing thing.

Under the eyes of the enemy, perhaps the only thing that made him feel better was Old Man Du's farewell. He didn't know when Old Man Du left, and he didn't know where Old Man Du went back. But judging from the current situation, it is only embarrassing for the two to see each other, but it is better to say goodbye.

In this way, he can also devote himself to dealing with the outside coalition forces.

As far as the alliance of the Jing Army, the Qi Army, and the Dart Sect is concerned, Ye Qingchuan and his keenness have found the key link, the Qi Army.

The rabble of the Dart Sect can hug the thighs of the Thousand Year Ye Mansion, so they are naturally happy to step forward. And the Jing army had already fled before, and now it is naturally happy to be able to oppose the guest. Therefore, the most difficult thing for Ye Maniac to deal with must be Qijun.

The Qi army, which can be attacked or retreated, and is not absolutely restrained by a certain party, must have been negotiated by Ye Maniac at a great price.

Therefore, if there is a breakthrough, the breakthrough must also be in Qijun.

What Ye Qingchuan never expected was that when he secretly sent someone to meet Lin Haowen. Lin Haowen refused very decisively.

The whole thing became intriguing in an instant. recalled that the army entered Chu, but it was not open, but secretly came to the gate of Jing. When he realized that he was discovered, he did not explain, but he resolutely retreated to Tongguan Town. Now that I think about it, I feel that everything in Qijun from beginning to end is obviously utilitarian.

Therefore, the biggest possibility is that Qijun didn't have a good heart at the beginning, but when Ye Madman arrived, he pushed the favor and won the greatest benefits at the same time.

Ye Qingchuan didn't guess what the greatest benefit of Qijun was, because Qijun had the basic conditions to advance and retreat, even if the lion opened his mouth to make greater demands, I believe that Ye Maniac would try his best to meet them.

Unexpectedly, I didn't expect that the former allies have become the biggest enemies today. He never underestimated Yi Feng, but just sighed that he was too good at seizing opportunities.

And when Ye Qingchuan was distressed by the tripartite alliance and racked his brains to find a way, there were problems within the three parties.

Of course, it is not a fight between the forces of all parties, after all, with the talent of Ye Maniac, he can still coordinate the relationship and interests of the three parties well. The real problem appeared between the Qi army and the Ye madman who commanded the commander.

During this time, Lin Haowen tightly asked Ye Maniac how to subdue Ye Qingchuan, but Ye Maniac always ignored Zuo Yan and did not answer positively.

And under Lin Haowen's perseverance and pressure step by step, Ye Maniac finally admitted that a key person in his plan had left Chudu

, and when he returned to the Millennium Ye Mansion, he couldn't come up with a way for a while, so he didn't tell him for a long time. And the person who left was the old man Du.

In fact, Old Man Du was really not sent by the Thousand Year Ye Mansion, and not only was he not sent, but he was lured by someone, to be precise, he was deceived by Ye Maniac.

In fact, at that time, Old Man Li was angry on Ye Qingchuan's side, and when he returned to the Thousand Year Ye Mansion, he would naturally add fuel and vinegar to the fact that Ye Qingchuan wanted to stand on his own. And the Millennium Ye Mansion, which attaches the most importance to face, naturally will not allow Ye Qingchuan to slap the face of the Millennium Ye Mansion like this, so it is already an ironclad matter to send someone to deal with Ye Qingchuan.

And the thousand-year-old Ye Mansion, which cherishes face, will naturally not send the old man to deal with it, so this matter will still fall on the younger generation after all. And coincidentally, this happened to the Ye madman.

And the appointed Ye Maniac had already started planning when he was in the Ye Mansion for a thousand years, and he took the lead in going to Old Man Du and told Ye Qingchuan in detail, during which he naturally inevitably added some fuel and vinegar. Later, Ye Maniac even gave a set of reasonable plans, that is, Old Man Du entered the Chu capital openly, and he united forces outside to put pressure on Ye Qingchuan. At that time, as long as Old Man Du understands it and moves it with affection, it will be possible to persuade Ye Qingchuan to return to the Thousand Year Ye Mansion.

Maybe it's because of the care, the old man Du didn't see the plan of the madman, or maybe the old man Du had already seen through it, but he finally decided to take a risk. But no matter what the case is, in short, the final result is that Old Man Du implemented Ye Madman's plan.

And as expected by Ye Maniac, Ye Qingchuan focused his attention on Old Man Du who swaggered into Chudu, but ignored him who was hiding in the shadows. Taking advantage of this, Ye Maniac began to first gather the Dart Sect that had a good impression of the Millennium Ye Mansion, and then talked about the Jing army who was eager to flee back to Yasukuni, but finally planted a heel on the Qi army hidden in Tongguan Town.

Originally, Ye Maniac deceived Old Man Du as a bait to cover for him, but on the other hand, he wanted to tell Old Man Du's true purpose at a critical moment, which would deal an emotional blow to Ye Qingchuan. I don't want Qijun to have the intention of subduing Ye Qingchuan, but if you accept it, just accept it, as far as Ye Madman is concerned, as long as Ye Qingchuan does not have the possibility of going back to the thousand-year-old Ye Mansion, he is happy to help. Moreover, he knew that if a kingdom subdued Ye Qingchuan, even if Ye Qingchuan wanted to return to the Thousand Year Ye Mansion, he was afraid that he would not have the face to go back.

Therefore, the old man Du who he lured at that time had a third role at this moment, which was to persuade Ye Qingchuan to join Qiguo. As for the conditions for persuasion, he has already thought of them, that is: "If the Millennium Ye Mansion doesn't like you to be the king, then you will be a minister, so that you can not only show your ambitions but also conform to the rules of the Millennium Ye Mansion, which can be described as the best of both worlds." ”

Ye Maniac believes that this set of rhetoric can not only be accepted by Old Man Du, who is bent on Ye Qingchuan's return to the Ye Mansion for a thousand years, but also by Ye Qingchuan, who wants to realize his ambitions, which can be described as the best of both worlds. As for whether Ye Qingchuan really has the face to return to the Millennium Ye Mansion at that time, it is not something he is thinking about now. After all, what if you go back then, assisting a kingdom will only be ridiculed by others in the Thousand Year Ye Mansion.

It's just that Madman Ye never expected that just when he wanted to tell Old Man Du what he thought in his heart, Old Man Du suddenly left Chudu. Old man Du's sudden departure caught Ye Maniac off guard, and he couldn't come up with a good plan to persuade Ye Qingchuan to join Qiguo for a while.

In this way, there was the current delay and delay, until a conflict broke out with Lin Haowen.
