1023 Chance Encounters

Picking up the baby son who had to be hugged by him from Fang Fei's arms, he was just about to go downstairs, Mo Xiaobao pointed to the door of another private room, and after Ye Qing's eyes looked over, Mo Xiaobao said in a low voice: "My lord, Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu are also dining here, and the two of them have just entered not long ago." ”

"So coincidentally?" Ye Qing, who held Zhong Ye in his arms, asked with some surprise.

"I saw it when I paid the silver just now, but I didn't dare to be sure, but then I quietly inquired, it was indeed the two of them." Mo Xiaobao shrugged his shoulders in front of Ye Qing and said innocently: "Although I don't know Xie Shenfu, I only heard Liuzheng call him Xie Da. ”

Ye Qing didn't pay attention to Mo Xiaobao, but instead hugged Zhong Ye and looked at the door of the private room not far away, and then said, "You go down and wait for me, I'll go over and take a look." ”

Refusing Fang Fei's proposal to take over Zhong Ye, Lord Ye held the happy Zhong Ye in his arms, and walked towards the door of the private room, and when he reached the door, the other voices in the noisy Yipin Building obviously completely covered up the sound of conversation inside, and it was impossible for Ye Qing to hear something even if he wanted to.

At this moment, the door suddenly opened, and the guy who came out of it looked at Ye Qing who was standing at the door smiling.

The teacup in his hand trembled inexplicably, looking at Ye Qing's peaceful smile at the door, an inexplicable feeling of suffocation instantly rushed towards him, and his expression couldn't help but stiffen, and then he put down the teacup with trembling hands, and slowly stood up under the huge pressure.

Xie Shenfu on the opposite side didn't see Ye Qing at the door behind him, but just looked at Liuzheng with a somewhat nervous and stiff expression, and his heart was full of doubts and incredulity.

Liuzheng is now the right minister in the Great Song Dynasty, which can be described as a high authority, who sees it is not polite and concedes? After all, in Lin'an, there are not many people who can sit on an equal footing with a high-ranking official like Liuzheng, and there are probably even fewer people who can make Liuzheng suddenly change color as soon as they meet.

Seeing Liuzheng stand up, an ugly smile squeezed out between his stiff expressions, the beard on his chin seemed to be trembling slightly, and he saluted to the door behind him, "Lord Ye......." ”

Almost as soon as the three words of Lord Liuzheng Ye came out, Xie Shenfu's mind exploded, and in an instant, the whole person became a little dazed, and he couldn't hear what Liuzheng said next, so he stood up almost immediately, turned around and looked behind him.

I saw that at the door of the private room, a man with a child about one year old in his arms, with a peaceful smile on his face, was looking at Liuzheng who had just finished saluting, and then his eyes calmly shifted to him.

"You're welcome." Ye Qing slowly walked into the private room with Zhong Ye in his arms, looked at Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu standing side by side and looked at him, then looked at Zhong Ye in his arms, and explained with a smile: "Today, Mrs. went to Gushan, and she has been away from Lin'an for so long, and she also wants to taste the food of Yipinlou." I just heard from my subordinates that I should keep my lord with ....... ”

"The servant of the lower official department and the appeasement of Lin'an, Xie Shenfu has seen Lord Ye." Seeing Ye Qing's peaceful gaze sweeping towards him again, Xie Shenfu hurriedly saluted and reported to his home.

Xie Shenfu, who had regained his calm on the surface mountain, did not know Ye Qing, and although he had seen Ye Qing before, he had only glanced at it in a hurry in the crowd, and he hadn't even seen what Ye Qing looked like.

Today I finally saw the true body of Ye Qing in the north, Xie Shenfu's heart was like turning over the river and the sea, the original cognition of Ye Qing and the speculation of the image came completely from hearsay gossip, what fierce gods, treacherous face, arrogant and domineering, etc., in short, most of the words that can be used to slander people have also been used on Ye Qing's body.

Therefore, in Xie Shenfu's mind, he unconsciously formed an image of the military general "Ye Qing" with a full face, rudeness, and no one in his eyes, plus some storytellers, in order to exaggerate Ye Qing's powerlessness and belittle the image of the golden man, so Ye Qing should be a martial artist with no one in his eyes and arrogant in Xie Shenfu's speculation.

But at this moment, the real Ye Qing gives people a feeling of elegance, kindness and approachability.

Holding a baby in his arms, a peaceful smile has been hanging on his face since he entered the private room, some elegant and upbringing every move, coupled with that angular face, and the dazzling sideburns and white hair, Xie Shenfu actually gave birth to a share: this should be what a high-powered Song Chen should look like.

"Two adults sit." Ye Qing took the lead in sitting down on the top, even if Liuzheng is the right minister now, and Xie Shenfu is the squire and the envoy of appeasement, but after all, in front of Ye Qing, they all give people a feeling of inferiority.

Of course, among the three of them, Ye Qing's title was already higher than the two, so sitting in the top position after entering the private room was not a provocation for Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu.

The little guy in his arms, Zhong Ye, didn't recognize his life, and was silly happy with Xie Shenfu at Liuzheng, who was a little nervous, and then began to babble and point to the food on the table, signaling Ye Qing to clip it over for him.

"I don't know if Lord Ye has just arrived or has already ......." Or maybe it was because of the babbling Zhong Ye in Ye Qing's arms, which relieved the suddenly tense atmosphere in the private room, and after losing the nervousness when he first met, Liuzheng also looked at Zhong Ye in Ye Qing's arms with a kind smile and asked.

"Oh, we have finished eating, and when we were about to go downstairs, we learned that the two adults were here, so Ye came over to say hello. Ye had just returned to Lin'an three days ago, and there were a lot of trivial matters in the house, so he didn't go to the court in the past few days, let alone visit the prime minister, and hoped to stay for forgiveness. Like catching up with an old friend, Ye Qing said calmly.

"Where, where, Lord Ye is serious. Liu Mou also knew that after you returned to Lin'an, you went to the palace as soon as possible, and you didn't even go back to the house to report your safety to your wife. Therefore, it is natural to understand the hardships of adults. Liuzheng said dryly.

After all, it is a tacit person, no matter how much you want to make the atmosphere in the private room harmonious, it is obviously an extremely difficult thing.

What's more, although Ye Qing was holding a babbling baby in his arms, which made the atmosphere in the private room somewhat relaxed, Ye Qing was a tyrant and a overlord after all, and all kinds of deeds in Lin'an, whether it was Liuzheng or Xie Shenfu, could already be memorized.

Therefore, in such a situation, Ye Qing was more and more relaxed in the private room, but Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu were more and more uncomfortable and nervous.

Only the little guy Zhong Ye was heartless in the private room, staring at Liuzheng who was secretly nervous with bright and innocent eyes for a while, and then turning his head to look at Xie Shenfu, who was also nervous, babbling and greeting, and Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu obviously couldn't turn a blind eye to a baby who didn't know the world.

So the little guy Zhong Ye babbled and smirked a few times at the two, and the dignified Song Tingdang left Lord Zhengliu on the right, and Lord Xie Shenfu, who pacified the envoy and the servant of the Ministry of Ministers, also had to respond to the friendliness and kindness of the Ye family.

The situation in the room was somewhat embarrassing in the eyes of Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu, although they knew that the child in Ye Qing's arms was born to Ye Qing by Zhong Qing, the princess of Xin, but at this moment, even if they had a complaint about Ye Qing and Zhong Qing's affairs, they had to do their best to respond when facing an innocent baby.

"Oh, this is Ye's fourth, in Yangzhou is the eldest child, the second child, the third child, the third child is a girl, and this little guy ...... It is with his mother's surname, so his mother named him Zhong Ye, which is the surname of me and his mother, and I also hope that when the little guy grows up, he will be able to spread the branches and leaves for the Zhong family. Ye Qing first moved the empty wine glass that was being pulled down by the little guy as if he was introducing a baby, and then introduced it to Xie Shenfu to Liuzheng.

Even if Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu have 10,000 reluctance in their hearts, they are the so-called people who don't stretch out their hands and don't hit smiling faces, not to mention that the people sitting in front of them are like Ye Qing, the heroes of the Northland.

Therefore, the words of praise such as dragon and phoenix, pink carving, innocence and so on, were also given by Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu one by one to Zhong Ye, the little guy who stared at them with bright and innocent eyes.

After a brief greeting, which can also be called a polite gesture from Ye Qing alone, the peaceful smile on Ye Qing's face was gradually replaced by an invisible majesty.

"Lord Xie has not been sent long after Lin'an's pacification envoy, I'm afraid you still have to be careful in this extraordinary period. What do adults think? Ye Qing hugged and played with today for a long time, and after seeing the living person excited for a while, he was exhausted at the moment, and Zhong Ye, who was dozing off in his arms, said to Xie Shenfu to Liuzheng.

"Lord Ye...... What do you mean by that? Xie Shenfu glanced at his eyes and turned into a solemn look, and then asked Ye Qing.

"Lord Xie is now a servant of the ministry, and he is also sent to pacify the envoy, shouldn't he have a clear understanding of the situation in the court?" Ye Qing asked with a smile, and then without waiting for Xie Shenfu to explain, he said to himself: "Ye Mou is not dissatisfied with the dispatch of Lord Xie as a minister and a pacification envoy to Lin'an. It's just that since I happened to meet Lord Xie today, I don't want to remind Lord Xie that no matter whose expectations Lord Xie bears, but since the court trusts and entrusts you with important responsibilities, Lord Xie must be worthy of the court, instead of betraying this trust in a daze. What do adults think? ”

"Liu didn't quite understand the meaning of Lord Ye's words." Liuzheng shook his head solemnly and said.

Ye Qing smiled casually, stretched out his hand and put it on the wine glass that had just been turned over and over by Zhong Ye for a long time, Xie Shenfu immediately picked up the wine jug and poured Ye Qing full of wine, and then poured a glass for Liuzheng and him.

"Although Ye has not been in Lin'an for a long time, he is not very concerned about the political affairs of the court, but it does not mean that he is not clear about the factions above the court. The festival between Ye and the adults at the beginning has passed in the past, and Ye will not be investigated at the beginning, and he will not be investigated in the future. Whether it is a good official who is loyal to the court or a corrupt official who seeks benefits for himself, Ye has always been able to distinguish ...... clearly. ”

"Lord Ye said this to win over a certain ......."

"Definitely." Ye Qing shook his head with a smile and said, "Ye never wanted to win over the Lord for my use. If you want to win over, the last time Ye was in Lin'an, he could fight for the dispatch of the right minister for others, instead of watching the Lord stay and become my right minister of the Great Song Dynasty. Of course, Ye doesn't have that much ability, and whoever he wants to be sent by the right prime minister will be sent by the right minister. But Ye has been in the court for many years, and has served and sent in front of Emperor Gaozong and Emperor Taishang for many years, and he can still do it, and if he doesn't want anyone to be sent by the right minister, then that person will definitely not be satisfied. Just like Qi Huang's technique, it may be difficult to save someone, but if you want to harm someone, then it is naturally easy, or even effortless. I think both adults should understand this truth, right? ”

"So today, I want to thank Lord Ye for fulfilling ......." Staying in front of Ye Qing is obviously impossible to be as easy as Ye Qing facing him, although he is said to be the right minister, but in the eyes of Ye Qing, a powerful minister, it doesn't matter much whether the right minister is not the right minister at all.

"No, I don't have to. Above the court, you take your sunny road, and I take my single-plank bridge. As long as it is for the sake of the court, for the sake of the Great Song Dynasty, and for the people and the society, Ye will not easily be disadvantageous to the adults. If you want to be unfavorable to the Liuda, Ye can justifiably take revenge on the Liuda for the Guanshan incident back then, so why wait until today? Ye Qing is still calm and relaxed.

And Xie Shenfu next to him, had to re-acquaint himself with Ye Qing, the hero of the Northland, when he first entered the private room, Ye Qing was just a peaceful young man with a baby in his arms, and Ye Qing at this time, after entering the topic, although he still had a peaceful smile, but his whole body seemed to exude an invincible domineering, giving people a sense of oppression with numb scalp.

"In this way, Lord Ye punished Lord Zhao Ruyu Zhao in the first place, not for the public but for the private cause?" Liuzheng asked with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.

"Why is Zhao Ruyu for Song Ting? When he united with Jin and Xia to eradicate me, was it really for the sake of the imperial court? What's more, Ye has recovered most of the lost territory for the imperial court over the years, so where is he sorry for him Zhao Ru's foolishness? Is there just a black and white court above the court? Ye Qing asked rhetorically.

Liuzheng closed his lips tightly, looked at Ye Qing without speaking, Xie Shenfu on the side, obviously there was no room for him to interject at this time, one was the right prime minister, the other was the northern hero, and even the right prime minister had to look at the faces of others, he was a squire and a pacifier, I am afraid that he is not qualified to persuade at this moment.

Liuzheng naturally understood what Ye Qing meant by the so-called court above the court was not black and white, and similarly, he also believed that if Ye Qing wanted to take revenge on him, then when he was not yet the right minister, he had a chance to punish Zhao Ruyu.

So Ye Qing didn't choose to retaliate, and even embarrassing him has always been a doubt in his heart.

After all, when Zhao Ruyu was brought into Dali Temple by Ye Qing, he was already ready to be retaliated against by Ye Qing, and even the future affairs of the family had been arranged, just waiting for Ye Qing to take revenge.

But in the end, Ye Qing not only did not move him, but even in the matter of his promotion to the right minister, it is said that Ye Qing also fought for himself in front of the queen.

Liuzheng didn't believe that Ye Qing would fight for himself in front of the queen and the clan, but looking at Ye Qing today, Liuzheng's heart was faintly shaken by the idea of a firm veto at the beginning.

Zhong Ye, who was sleeping in Ye Qing's arms, unconsciously kicked his legs to make Ye Qing look down with concern, after seeing that the little guy was sleeping very soundly, Ye Qing involuntarily showed a loving smile on his face, and only raised his head after a while, in the somewhat quiet private room, sighed slightly, and said: "Ye just wants to remind the two of you that the right minister and the servant of the ministry, as well as the dispatch of the Lin'an pacification envoy, are not as easy to sit as you imagined." Now that Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan have returned to Lin'an from the north, and I, Ye Qing, have also arrived in Lin'an, and now the sky over Lin'an will be surging again. No matter who you are for, first of all, you must be able to protect yourself from being pulled down from the position of right minister and appeasement, so that you can have a chance to ....... ”

Ye Qing, as well as Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu, listened attentively to the noisy noise outside that was getting more and more noisy outside, getting closer and closer to their private room, and after a pause, they continued to ignore it: "The Ministry of Officials has always been controlled by Shi Miyuan, and since Han Yanxuan was appointed as the Left Minister, it has been controlled by him, and now Shi Miyuan sees that someone from the Ministry of Officials who is not his confidant has been sent in, do you think Shi Miyuan will still sit still?" How could Han Yanxuan easily give up the rights of Lin'an? ”

"These are all subordinate officials' affairs, what does it have to do with the retention of adults?" Xie Shenfu looked outside again, and the noisy sound at this moment was louder than just now, and it was going to be even more imposing.

"How could Shi Miyuan be only willing to be sent by the Ministry of Officials now? The servant of the ministry was intervened by you Xie Shenfu, so Shi Miyuan must have to look up again. Ye Qing's gaze wandered to Liuzheng, and said, "Han Yanxuan's left is different, and Shi Miyuan has no way to replace him for a while. But he wants to move you to stay on the right side, and this is the best opportunity. Because Ye Qing has returned to Lin'an, when the imperial court has put most of its attention on me, he can easily fish in troubled waters, so as to leave you right and pull you off the horse. As the so-called praying mantis catches cicadas, yellow finches are in the back ....... ”

Before Ye Qing finished speaking, the door of the private room was slammed open, and the loud noise startled Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu, and similarly, it also scared the little Zhong Ye who was sleeping in Ye Qing's arms, and cried out in fright.
