As Ye Qing walked out of the teahouse, Xie Daoqing still had a vague and groggy feeling in his mind, and the impression of the court officials discussing things was by no means as simple as today, as if old friends were reminiscing.

But obviously, the two important ministers I saw today, when discussing things, what they said was secretive, and the rest of the feeling to her was not as serious and ceremonial as when her grandfather and father talked about some court affairs at home.

In short, all this experience today completely broke her previous conjectures and views on the important ministers of the court, the Xiaoxiong who is widely circulated in Lin'an is not like a Xiaoxiong, but more like a peaceful and easy to deal with, even with a touch of cuteness, and another powerful minister above the court is also not very much like a powerful minister, but more like a rich businessman.

Looking at Xie Daoqing, who still refused to leave, Ye Qing looked at those big bright eyes again: "Don't leave yet?" ”

"I ...... My dad's business...... What to do? You promise me ....... Only when he mentioned this matter, Xie Daoqing felt that he needed to be more respectful to the uncle in front of him, instead of looking at each other like just now, and just refused to leave.

"Your father won't be in danger for the time being, and I don't know where it is......

"You...... You just promised me ...... at the teahouse. ”

"I didn't promise to save your father in the teahouse, did I?" Ye Qing began to quibble.

"Yes." The little girl stomped her feet with some dissatisfaction: "I said angrily, you said that if I didn't cry, I would promise to save my father's ......." ”

"I mean...... If you don't cry, and help me get out of the trouble of being besieged by those scholars, I can do my best to ensure that your father is not worried about his life for the time being, right? Think about it, recall, did I just say that? Ye Qing looked at the little girl's eyes that had become a little red again, and then stretched out his hand and greeted him a few times, but in the blink of an eye, there were two ordinary-looking men standing behind him.

"Send this little girl back to Xie Mansion ......." Ye Qing said lightly, he was afraid that this little girl would not want to go back alone, and then secretly followed him and did not let go. So I had to recruit two guards of the Imperial City Division who had been secretly escorting the little girl back to Xie Mansion.

"I don't, I don't, if you don't agree today, I'll follow you wherever you go!" Xie Dao stomped his feet again in a puff of anger, and just thought about it carefully, the uncle in front of him didn't seem to have promised to save his father, but only promised to ensure that his father's life was worry-free for the time being, and there were prerequisites.

So at this moment, Xie Daoqing, with slightly red eyes with a hint of stubbornness and anger, stared at Ye Qing tightly, this uncle who seemed to be a good person, turned out to be so cunning that he actually lied to himself!

was sure that Ye Qing would not do anything to her, after all, Xie Daoqing also knew in his heart that Ye Qing would never bully her as a girl. Otherwise, you wouldn't have found yourself stalking, you would stop to talk to yourself with a pleasant face, and you wouldn't have brought yourself to the teahouse. And then, especially, when talking to the chubby Shi Miyuan, because he was unwilling to leave, he finally chose to acquiesce and let himself sit next to him.

Looking at Ye Qing's somewhat helpless eyes, Xie Daoqing defiantly straightened his chest that was not full, and raised his chin with a delicate spirit.

After Qingqiu came out of the teahouse, he saw the scene in front of him, the little girl who looked elegant and pure, and had a delicate appearance, and Ye Qing were like fighting cocks on the street, you looked at me, I stared at you, and no one would give in.

As Qingqiu urged Ye Qing in a low voice, Ye Qing finally chose to compromise and give in when facing the stares of a yellow-haired girl.

Stretched out his finger and flicked it on Xie Daoqing's white forehead, watching the little girl's cheeks instantly become a little blushing, she stretched out her hand to stroke her forehead, but she still glared at herself angrily, and said with a smile: "Even your grandfather doesn't dare to talk to me like this." Go back and tell your grandfather, I promised you, for the time being, that your father will be free of life, and he will understand that he is not as stupid as you yellow-haired girl. ”

"What if you lie to me?" The little girl rubbed her forehead, then looked at her palm, and asked with some uneasy vigilance.

Xie Daoqing was a little unsure of the truth of what Ye Qing said, but deep down he didn't know why, but he was willing to choose to believe what Ye Qing said, just let her tell her grandfather, Xie Daoqing was a little embarrassed in his heart.

After all, she secretly ran out to find Ye Qing today, and no one in the house knew about it, not even her mother. So Xie Daoqing was very worried, if he told his grandfather that he had found an uncle to save his father alone, would he make his grandfather unhappy.

"Why did I lie to you little girl? Send her back to Xie Shenfu's mansion. Ye Qing said to the two behind him again.

Then Xie Daoqing pouted slightly, touched his forehead that had just been flicked by Ye Qing, took a deep look at Ye Qing, and said: Don't deceive people, after a word is decided, he reluctantly walked in the other direction of the street.

and Qingqiu went to the Imperial City Division of Wuyi Lane from the Hongchu Teahouse, and then the two of them took a carriage, and after going around again, they came to the apricot garden when the sun was about to set. Li Fengniang saw Ye Qing for the first time, and smashed the teacup in her hand towards Ye Qing, fortunately, Ye Qing reacted in time, but Qingqiu behind him was not so lucky, he was hit in the knee by the flying teacup, and he didn't even dare to say a word.

As Qingqiu walked out of the room with a slight limp, Ye Qing still had a peaceful smile on his face, poured himself a cup of tea at the table, and then said to Li Fengniang, who was still pale: "Why is the queen so angry, could it be that someone provoked you?" ”

"Since you know that Lin'an City is now in danger for you Ye Qing, why do you want to come back?" Li Fengniang's face was still pale, but she didn't ask Ye Qing and Xie Daoqing about the street.

And Ye Qing took the initiative to say: "I didn't expect to be followed by a little girl today, I'm afraid you won't guess that the little girl who is following me ......." ”

"Don't forget that you're old enough to be a father to others." Li Fengniang slowly walked to Ye Qing and sat down.

Ye Qing rolled his eyes speechlessly, and then continued: "I thought it was a mountain and a river with no way out, but I didn't expect it to be another village. The little girl who followed me today turned out to be Xie Shenfu's granddaughter, and she was begging me to save her father's ....... ”

"Xie Shenfu's granddaughter?" Li Fengniang frowned slightly and said, "So you plan to use this matter to win over Xie Shenfu?" This is impossible, the reason why the Emperor Taishang chose Xie Shenfu is because this person is upright, and he has always been a loner in the court, never forming a party for personal gain, and only knows how to be loyal to the court. Both Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan tried to win them over, but in the end, no one succeeded. And you, a long-time resident in the North, although you have a lot of prestige and influence in Lin'an, but Lin'an is not your sphere of influence after all, how do you win him over? Don't forget, the reason why the Emperor Taishang promoted the Xie family father and son in a short period of time is completely for you Ye Qing! ”

"If ......." Ye Qing looked at Li Fengniang, who was even more anxious than him, and after taking a sip of the teacup, he said lightly: "It's not to woo, but to use this matter and the Xie family and his son?" ”

"What do you want to do?" Li Fengniang looked at Ye Qing's deep and sharp eyes, and involuntarily felt that she was being pinched hard, and she felt a feeling of being out of breath.

"Non-toxic, not husband, small amount is not a gentleman. Han Yanxuan borrowed me to return to the chaos of Lin'an, wanting to win back a game for himself, and once again let the Han family return to the sight of the Emperor, so that the Emperor can see that they are still important ministers that can be relied on. That's why Han Yanxuan took revenge on Xie Shenfu so unscrupulously and immediately, that is, he knew that the Emperor Taishang didn't have the heart to pursue him at the moment, but focused on me. Then just let the Emperor Taishang ...... between Han Yanxuan. Ye Qing said calmly.

"Misfortune leads to the east, you Ye Qing will reap the benefits? watched the Emperor Taishang fight to the death with Han Yanxuan, and then he couldn't scruple about ....... Li Fengniang guessed and said, only after seeing that Ye Qing still shook his head, she stopped talking.

"To do it naturally is to leave no trouble, now is not the same as in the past, how can you practice the kindness of a woman again?" Ye Qing's eyes were full of murderous intent, just like when he was in the teahouse with Shi Miyuan today, and his body was full of fierce and deep killing intent.

Li Fengniang was shocked by Ye Qing's words and gasped, and at the same time, Shi Miyuan's words also made Zheng Qingzhi gasp, a little hard to believe that Shi Miyuan was going to attack Han Yanxuan at this time.

"My lord, under such a chaotic situation in Lin'an, if it is aimed at Han Yanxuan, it is inevitable that Ye Qing will not be allowed to reap the benefits of the fisherman. What's more, the Emperor's attention is on Ye Qing, and this is not a good opportunity ....... Zheng Qingzhi had to remind Shi Miyuan that being embarrassed by Han Yanxuan at this time would inevitably benefit Ye Qing in the end.

"Ye Qingzhi is not in the court, the northland is his hard work and experience, and Ye Qing's purpose is not to let the northland at this time be scattered ......." Shi Miyuan was also not very relieved about Ye Qing, so he didn't agree to Ye Qing at the first time, just hoping to have more time to figure out and speculate on Ye Qing's true intentions.

Zheng Qingzhi listened to Shi Miyuan's analysis, and his heart was more and more frightened, Shi Miyuan's words had completely pointed out that the reason why he suddenly turned to Han Yanxuan, instead of continuing to take advantage of the chaos in secret, was absolutely related to the negotiation with Ye Qing in the Hongchu Teahouse today.

"The Hongchu Teahouse will be closed tomorrow, and this teahouse can also be resold." Shi Miyuan held the teacup, and the teacup looked more like it had been placed on his fat belly.

"Huh? My lord...... This....... Zheng Qingzhi was stunned again, he didn't react at all, just now he was talking about the stakes between Ye Qing and Han Yanxuan, why did the topic suddenly turn to the teahouse.

"Do you really think that Ye Qing's appearance in the teahouse today is an accident or coincidence? The Imperial City Division has been in his hands for many years, even if Ye Qingren is not in the Northland, the Imperial City Division is still tightly grasped by him. In the past two years, under Ye Qing's compromise at the beginning, the queen has placed Qingqiu in the Imperial City Division as the deputy commander, so what? In the end, it wasn't that he couldn't take advantage of that Zhong Qing's hand? Qingqiu was obviously deliberately brought here by Ye Qing today, Ye Qing is warning me that the Hongchu Teahouse is already unstable, this is a big gift, and we can't even refuse. Shi Miyuan said a little angrily. Originally, he also wanted to deal with Ye Qing after Ye Qing returned to Lin'an, but he didn't expect that Ye Qing would return to Lin'an only a few days later, and he would make a first move.

Today, Qingqiu was summoned to the Hongchu Teahouse, and on the surface, it was just a meeting between the commander and deputy commander of the Imperial City Division, but behind Qingqiu was the current queen, who could handle the government affairs of the court.

And the relationship between Ye Qing and the queen, although there are faint rumors of unclear rumors, Shi Miyuan believes that the reason why Ye Qing and the queen Li Fengniang are so close is entirely because Ye Qing took the lead in joining the prince's door.

Although Ye Qing chose to stand on the side of the Emperor Taishang in the matter of the Emperor's throne and the current Holy Emperor's succession, who can be sure that this is not the tacit understanding between Ye Qing and the queen?

What's more, Ye Qing at that time, because the northern land had just been recovered and needed comprehensive stability, he really needed the support of the emperor who ignored the government for more than two years to help him stabilize the hearts of the people in the north and the military hearts of the generals.

"My lord, are you saying that Ye Qing's appearance in the teahouse today is completely to remind us that this place has been exposed?" Zheng Qingzhi asked with some disbelieving.

"Idiot! When did Ye Qing do something purposeless? Today, it is Xie Shenfu's granddaughter who is accompanying him, and Qingqiu is late, isn't it enough to show that Hongchu Teahouse has actually been known by Ye Qing for a long time? If he exposes this matter above the court, and Qingqiu, who is the queen's henchman and deputy commander of the Imperial City Division, testifies, how can we gain a foothold in the court? Even if most of the Imperial Observatory is ours, what is the use? Ye Qing took the initiative, or the fish died and the net was broken, and no one wanted to be alone from the chaos in Lin'an. Either they will join forces with him and sow discord between the Emperor and Han Yanxuan on the matter of Xie Qubo being arrested by Han Yanxuan and put him in prison. Ye Qing forced me from the dark to the bright place, just because he was afraid that I would benefit from the fisherman in the dark. And now we have to do it. Shi Miyuan's fat hand gradually clenched into a fist, and the teacup was really just placed on his big belly and didn't move.

Ye Qing's methods were too despicable and shameless, it turned out to be like a salary from the bottom of the kettle, and he pinched Shi Miyuan's most feared thing, accepting bribes was naturally not a big crime in his eyes, even if it was a matter of forming a party and running a private business above the court, Shi Miyuan was confident, and he could get out of it.

But Ye Qing made it clear that the Hongchu Teahouse, which was known as the Ministry of Small Officials, was like cutting off his Shi Miyuan's wealth and relationship network, which made Shi Miyuan helpless and extremely painful.

It's like a spider web that has just been coiled and broken, which was torn off from the root by Ye Qing, which made Shi Miyuan, the small official department that he had worked hard to build for many years, face a desperate situation of being destroyed.

Shi Miyuan's eyes have always been vicious, thoughtful and long-term, he completely saw the consequences that Zheng Qingzhi couldn't see at all, Hongchu Teahouse, which is like a small official's department, is like a restaurant with an excellent reputation, and it is full of customers and money on weekdays.

And Ye Qing was in the chaos of Lin'an, and suddenly found out all kinds of tricks in the small official department of Hongchu Teahouse, which was like knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, which would inevitably make many officials panic, and they didn't dare to come here easily.

Looking at Zheng Qingzhi, who still didn't quite understand, Shi Miyuan said with a gloomy face: "Once Ye Qing finds out the true purpose of Hongchu Teahouse, plus Han Yanxuan has just taken Chen Fuliang and Xie Qubo to the prison of the Criminal Department. In this case, who would dare to commit a crime against the wind and come here to seek promotion? What's more, these are just some of the things we can see. If Ye Qing is in the name of the commander of the Imperial City Division, coupled with his close relationship with the queen, once he reports this matter to the saint, it is difficult to ensure that those officials who want to ask for promotion will not be endangered by this, who will dare to come here at that time? If you add the matter of the Emperor Taishang dealing with Ye Qing, once the city is full of storms, I am afraid that all the officials of the entire Great Song Dynasty will make the court everywhere, and I am afraid that it will not be a few years before it will be difficult to restore the rainbow teahouse to its original state. ”

The more Shi Miyuan spoke, the more angry he felt, and the more he said, the more he regretted it, why didn't he think of joining the prince's disciple in the first place? On the contrary, he was preempted by Ye Qing, which made him lose the initiative before Ye Qing everywhere now.

"Let's not talk about that, let's talk about your tone in Qingqiu today?" Shi Miyuan put the teacup on his stomach on the table, and the more he talked, the more angry he became, and the teacup on his belly was naturally unstable because of the ups and downs.

"Qingqiu said, the queen means that there is no need to worry, now the crown prince is just eleven years old, a little too early." Zheng Qingzhi came back to his senses from deep thought and hurriedly replied.

"It's not early, if you delay it any longer, it is difficult to guarantee that Ye Qing, who will not taste the sweetness, will be the first. Today, Ye Qing and Xie Shenfu's granddaughter appeared together, which is not a good sign. Once Ye Qing ...... But Xie Shenfu's granddaughter is six years older than the crown prince, even if Ye Qing wants to recommend this daughter as the crown princess, I'm afraid the queen won't agree, right? Shi Miyuan said with some doubts.

At this time, Xie Daoqing, who was guessed by Shi Miyuan as being recommended as the crown princess, had been hesitating and struggling since she came out of her mother's room, how to tell her grandfather about her meeting with Ye Qing today.
