Text Chapter 207 Shi Gongzi's kindness
So the topic of the two was naturally chatting and chatting, and they talked about Luo Shichuan, who stayed in Sizhou forever, and Li Yuan, who was still waiting for his companion in Sizhou.
The two of them both smiled implicitly, and after tacitly glancing at each other, Li Xizhi took out a secret letter from his arms and handed it to Ye Qing.
"I don't know if Lord Ye already knows, but ...... After thinking about it, plus it was entrusted by someone, it was better to transfer it to Lord Ye truthfully. Li Xizhi stretched out his hand and watched as the envelope was taken by Ye Qing suspiciously.
"For me? I don't know who bothered Lord Li to hand it over? Ye Qing smiled, took out the letter inside and began to look.
"Shi Jiashi Gongzi." Li Xizhi said with a smile.
After Li Xizhi finished speaking, he looked at Ye Qing looking at the letter expressionlessly, but as Ye Qing continued to read, Li Xizhi, who was sitting opposite, suddenly felt a panic for no reason, and a faint murderous aura suddenly permeated the small carriage, as if the temperature had dropped a lot all of a sudden, which made him involuntarily have goosebumps.
Ye Qing slowly folded the letter, still with a smile on his face, but that smile was a little more aggressive and murderous than the easy-going just now.
"Thank you Shi Gongzi and Master Li, a little family matter, the two adults are interested." Ye Qing put the letter in his arms, looked at Li Xizhi and said.
"Shi Gongzi also dragged down and brought a few words to Lord Ye, if Lord Ye intends to ......." After Li Xizhi said something halfway, he stopped and looked at Ye Qing.
"Master Li might as well say it directly." Ye Qing said.
"What Shi Gongzi means is that the unhappiness that occurred between him and Lord Ye in the past can be blamed in the past, and he sincerely hopes to cooperate with Lord Ye and conspire with him to do great things. As for Lord Ye's family affairs, Shi Gongzi is also willing to help Lord Ye. Li Xizhi looked at Ye Qing with a smile and said.
Although he didn't know what Ye Qing's relationship was with the Miss Bai in the letter, since Shi Miyuan referred to Ye Qing's family in the letter, he must not be Ye Qing's unmarried wife, I'm afraid it won't be too outrageous, right?
More importantly, this Miss Bai must be a fairy-like beauty, otherwise, how could Tang Hexi, the grandson of Tang Xiang, go to the Ye family one after another to disturb this Miss Bai.
If it weren't for the beauty who looks like a fairy and Lan Xinhui, Tang Hexi would not have taken the son of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry to break into Yefu at night after getting drunk, and finally slapped Miss Bai, so that the trouble broke up.
"What about Shi Gongzi's conditions?" Ye Qing asked bluntly.
He didn't know that Bai Chun was slapped by the drunk Li Lifang, and Zhao Qi'er never mentioned it in his letter.
Every time Zhao Qi'er wrote a letter, he only mentioned that the bird that hatched at the beginning was a crow, and then he would vaguely say that some Bai Chun and You'er, tossing for a long time, and did not toss the soap out of a look, the two of them were hit by their self-confidence, and they were in a daze at the petals in the yard every day.
Now, from the letter sent to him by Shi Miyuan, he knew that Tang Hexi and Li Lifang broke into their house late at night, and even Li Lifang slapped Bai Chun, although the bow and crossbow in Bai Chun's hand also returned an arrow, but Li Lifang was really looking for death!
Do you really think that your sister has become a quasi-princess, and with his father who is still a scholar in the Ministry of Works, she can do whatever she wants in Lin'an City!
"Presumably Lord Ye also knows that the imperial court sent Shaoqing and others from Dali Temple to Yangzhou today, I'm afraid it's not as simple as just inspecting. Although Lord Ye has only been on Huainan East Road for more than ten days, he is tired of the officialdom of Yangzhou and Sizhou, and he must have known something about Lord Ye through the Sizhou Imperial City Division. So today, the imperial court sent Yu Yunwen Shaoqing, who once recaptured most of the Huainan East Road from the hands of the Jin people in one fell swoop, for my Great Song Dynasty, obviously to rectify the officialdom of Huainan East Road, after all, in Huainan East Road, no one is more qualified than him to rectify the rule of officials. Li Xizhi said eloquently.
"But what does that have to do with me? If Shi Gongzi is interested, it should be to find Yu Yunwen Shaoqing, but he is just sent by the Imperial City Division, I'm afraid I can't help Shi Gongzi with anything, right? Ye Qing suppressed the anger in his heart towards Li Lifang and Tang Hexi, and said calmly and easily on the surface.
"Lord Ye is not at all right? This time, it seems that the imperial court only sent Dali Temple here on an errand, but I think that whether it is Zhao Shixiong or Liu, everyone knows that Lord Ye's Imperial City Division will definitely assist from the side. So with the assistance of the Imperial City Division, the Hukou Yamen, and the military judgment has been in Sizhou for nearly half a year, although it cannot be said that he has been completely integrated into the officialdom of Huainan East Road, but the officialdom of Huainan East Road, at least the huge number of taxes in Sizhou's commercial and trade transactions, he also knows the roots, as long as he casually reveals some to Lord Ye, Lord Ye will hand it over to Yu Yunwen Shaoqing. In this way, whoever Lord Ye wants to be unlucky, he will have to be unlucky, and he can't hide from it. Li Xizhi smiled, and in his faint words, he directly named the interests and importance between Ye Qing and Yu Yunwen, as well as the officialdom on Huainan East Road.
"So judging from the experience of Lord Li living in the officialdom of Huainan East Road for a long time, who should be unlucky? Or is it that Lord Li, as the envoy of Huainan East Road and the two important positions of the city department, has not been less in his pocket to make money? Ye Qing asked silently.
Li Xizhi didn't deny or admit Ye Qing's speculation about him, as if he hadn't heard it, and continued: "Judging from the future, I'm afraid that the unlucky one this time will belong to Master Zhao Shixiong, who is also the prefect of Yangzhou and the ambassador of pacification, right?" ”
"Oh? How so? Ye Qing was playing with Li Xizhi in an official tone, and was planning in his heart, after returning to Lin'an, how could he quietly clean up Tang Hexi and Li Lifang!
"The official position of my Great Song Dynasty continued to be the same as that of the previous dynasty, but there were naturally changes. Tang Shi was a minister who inspected the war-torn and disaster-stricken places, and was called a pacifier. Now my Great Song Dynasty continues to appease the name of the envoy and let him be the prefect of military affairs and public security along the way, but throughout the various roads of my Great Song Dynasty, even including Huainan West Road, there has never been a prefect who can hold the important post of pacification envoy. Now that the Song and Jin are peaceful, the people of Huainan East Road live in peace and military affairs are in order, it is obvious that it is inappropriate for the imperial court to send officials like this, and there is an opportunity for officials to become bigger, if they are not corrected in time, I am afraid that my Huainan East Road will become a country within a country, and it will be more difficult for the imperial court to intervene in the important affairs of this place at that time. Li Xizhi was cautious in his words, but even so, he expressed the worries of the imperial court and the purpose of the imperial court to send Yu Yunwen north.
The Huainan East Road has always been the border and battlefield of the Jin and Song dynasties, and if the imperial court is sent according to the appointment and dismissal of other roads, the prefect of the road and the pacification envoy will be separated.
In this way, once the Jin people raised troops to the south, it was very likely to cause the prefect and the pacification envoy to involve and hinder each other, which was likely to give the Jin people a gap to take advantage of, so that the Jin people could drive straight in, pointing directly at Yangzhou and looking at Zhenjiang across the river, endangering the territory south of the Yangtze River in the Great Song Dynasty.
Therefore, since Yu Yunwen recaptured Huainan East Road and other places, in order to protect the territory south of the Yangtze River, the imperial court will not be in danger at the first time when the Jin people go south, and can make the armies on the Huainan East Road become an effective line of defense to resist the southward movement of the Jin people's iron cavalry, so they have always turned a blind eye to the fact that the prefect of Huainan East Road is also a pacification envoy.
But now everyone knows that between Jin and Song, has been a rare peaceful coexistence for more than ten years, since the Jin Emperor Wan Yan Liang crossed the river, and then was killed by his subordinates, Wan Yan Yong took the opportunity to seize the throne of the Jin State, it seems that the Jin people have lost interest in the Southern Song Dynasty.
This made Zhao Gou's father and son pay attention to Huainan East Road again, and wanted to really control Huainan East Road again, especially the huge amount of taxes, instead of letting the officialdom of Huainan East Road have the final say.
At the beginning, in order to raise troops to resist the Jin people, the court was able to endure the huge military salary expenses, but as the peace became longer and longer, a lot of money and taxes were greedy by others.
Zhao Gou naturally couldn't sit firmly on Diaoyutai anymore, and watched those white flowers and silver become the pockets of the courtiers, and only a small part was handed over to the imperial court, and most of them had nothing to do with him at all.
So in this way, the imperial court sent Yu Yunwen, the young secretary of Dali Temple, over, and the new deputy commander of the Imperial City Division was also in Yangzhou, and he Li Xizhi did not receive any news about the impact on his city, not to mention that the city was originally the small treasury of the emperor.
Then the most unlucky person on Huainan East Road naturally came to light, except for Zhao Shixiong, the prefect of Yangzhou and the pacification envoy, there was no one else!
As for the Yangzhou Zhizhou who was speechless, as a transfer envoy, it was obvious that what the imperial court wanted more than Zhao Shixiong was to appease the envoy, the head of military affairs.
Ye Qing smiled and nodded, he also had to admire Li Xizhi's thoughtfulness, and he was able to guess the thoughts of the imperial court and Zhao Gou in a very short period of time.
"Since Master Li already knows, I don't know what Ye can do?" Ye Qing asked pretending not to know.
In his opinion, Li Xizhi said this to himself, not for the sake of Zhao Shixiong's official position, but for the sake of Zhao Shixiong's deposition, the two vacancies of the prefect and the pacification envoy left behind, right?
"So Master Ye thinks that once Zhao Shixiong is deposed by the imperial court, who should fill the two vacancies left behind? Other officials in the officialdom on Huainan East Road, do you think it's possible? Li Xizhi looked at Ye Qing with a smile and said.
"The affairs of the imperial court, how dare you figure it out at will, and even if you send officials from other places here, I am afraid that Lord Li should also find the Ministry of Officials, Lord Li is looking for it, isn't it the wrong temple to worship the wrong Bodhisattva?" Ye Qing said casually, looking like he didn't care about himself.
"But as far as I know, when Lord Ye was in Lin'an, he had a relationship with Yu Yunwen, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and once said in person that he admired Yu Yunwen Shaoqing, including the words of admiring Yu Yunwen Shaoqing if he had the opportunity, and he would fight against Jin with Yu Yunwen Shaoqing, but?"
"Yes, it did happen that day. And it seems that Hong Zun, the squire of the Criminal Department, was also present, he told you? Ye Qing faintly guessed what Li Xizhi's purpose, including Shi Miyuan behind him, and even Shi Hao behind him.
