Chapter 880: Lin'an without Ye Qing
So far, Ye Qing still only dares to tell a few people about his ideals and goals, and for the entire army of the Five Roads in the Northland, Ye Qing's slogan is still to regain the lost territory and be ashamed of the two saints.
Ye Qing also didn't know that one day in the future, once all the lost territory was recovered, would the fighting spirit and morale of the Northland Fifth Route Army still be able to maintain the current level, or would the entire army suddenly lose the direction of pursuit and begin to become comfortable and enjoyable?
Such things have happened too many times in history, and the most unforgettable thing for the Chinese nation is the Wuhu Chaohua, and the reason for the Wuhu Chaohua, in the final analysis, is naturally the focus of the Wudi Sima Yan, who put Nanshan and put the swords and guns into the warehouse after the unification of China.
Of course, the example that can cause Ye Qing to recognize the current situation clearly and think about how to go in the future is still Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, and the sentence Although Chu has three households, Qin will die in Chu.
There is no need to even argue at length, as long as Xiang Yu led the army to destroy Qin, and then took a sharp turn for the worse, and finally killed Wujiang and Liu Bang became kings, you can see that Xiang Yu because of a sentence Although Chu has three households, and Qin must die, it will be Chu, so that the Chu army in the period of destroying Qin, than when fighting for the world with Liu Bang, the combat effectiveness is more than a star and a half.
It is precisely because of the destruction of Qin that whether it is Xiang Yu or Chu Jun, just like the string that is tight in a person's heart, it finally became slack because of the achievement of the goal, coupled with Xiang Yu's narrow and short-sighted vision, he finally lost the good situation.
Therefore, if the husband recovers all the lost territories of the Great Song Dynasty in the future, he should take this as a warning, and he needs to understand and straighten out the army under his command, and how the officials under his rule should go is the most important. The overlord of Chu wanted to go back to the past, establish the country with the princes, and be the son of heaven himself, but obviously, the general trend of the world after the unification of the Qin State was unchangeable, and it was difficult to rebuild and divide the princes to govern the country and the country. Liu Bang, the king of the Han Dynasty, was born as a pavilion chief, and he was on par with Jundutou. However, his heart is ambitious, and he knows that the general trend of the world should conform to the times, rather than revisiting the old system, so that he can defeat the overlord, establish a great Han, and become a prosperous world. Jun now lives in Chang'an, when the city wall should listen to the echo of the prosperous era at that time, the sound of the iron hooves breaking the Huns, and the weather of the Tang Dynasty and all the countries coming to worship ....... ”
Ye Qing held Zhong Qing's letter in his hand and savored it carefully, and next to him sat Bai Chun and Red Mansion, since he revealed his heart to Yan Jing that day, Wan Yan Jing left the mansion without saying a word.
In the past two days, Wan Yanjing will climb the towers of Chang'an City from time to time, or haunt the cities and streets of Chang'an City in civilian clothes.
"Li Fengniang promised Zhong Qing to me." Ye Qing took the letter, looked at Bai Chun and said.
"Did you think of it a long time ago?" Bai Chun asked calmly, the indifferent face that did not eat the fireworks of the world made Ye Qing unable to see a trace of his inner reaction.
"I didn't expect that. I thought she would show favor to Zhao Ruyu, but now it seems that it is not as simple as I thought, behind Zhao Ruyu, there is a master. Ye Qing sighed, since Li Fengniang showed herself with Zhong Qing, is it also implying that behind Zhao Ruyu, there is actually Zhao Yan who has been lazy for many years?
Otherwise, with Li Fengniang's character, how could she tolerate that she couldn't get out for a while?
"Then do you want to take Zhong Qing over, isn't Lin'an dangerous to her now? In the past, someone may have turned a blind eye, just when the matter between Ye Qing and Zhong Qing did not exist, but now that Li Fengniang has made it clear, can she still live in Lin'an? Bai Chun also sighed, the person next to him knew that he was thinking about his own court, and he was so indifferent to the safety of his woman.
"Zhao Ruyu is not dead, she won't leave Lin'an, right?" Ye Qing asked Bai Chun with a sideways look.
At this time, Zhong Qing in Lin'an City had moved from Gushan to the house of Tonghuifang, and now in addition to Tao Qian and Wang Lun, only the two maids who were left in the house were left, and now they are guarding the small house.
After Zhong Qing was ordered to Ye Qing by Li Fengniang, Zhong Qing moved into the house the next day, so the house that originally had only two maids finally felt a trace of popularity and excitement just a few days after the deserted Yuan Day.
The mulberry tree is still bare, but since moving to the house, Zhong Qing will look at the two mulberry trees in the courtyard from time to time, when Bai Chun was still in Lin'an, he told her a lot of things about Ye Qing back then, and Ye Qing's initial appearance, although she had never experienced it, was enough to generate vivid pictures in her mind in Bai Chun's narration.
Ye Qing, who was still the head of the forbidden army, Ye Qing, who was the deputy commander of the Imperial City Division, Ye Qing who was Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and then Ye Qing, who Zhong Qing knew, and Ye Qing, who was now in the distant Jingzhao Mansion.
She didn't know how Ye Qing would feel after seeing the letter she wrote, and she was a little apprehensive at the moment, after all, the letter had been entangled for a long time, and the content of the handwritten letter that she wrote at the end was somewhat rebellious, but for Ye Qing now, Zhong Qing believes that it should be of some use.
On weekdays, Ye Qing likes to discuss with herself on some uncertain court issues, with Bai Chun on the issue of umbrellas, and with Allure on the issue of money, so after she really became Ye Qing's rightful woman, from her Zhong Qing's point of view, she should also do something for her husband.
So after thinking about it and tossing and turning for a few nights, Zhong Qing finally decided to tell her husband what she was thinking and worrying, as well as what she could foresee.
As for what will happen to Ye Qing in the future, whether he is a marquis or a traitor and a thief, Zhong Qing doesn't care anymore, marrying a chicken and a dog, since she is already a woman who is Ye Qing's name, she doesn't think it matters what will happen to her husband in the end, the important thing is that she is willing to go down with him.
The maid's voice pulled Zhong Qing's thoughts back to reality from the top of the mulberry tree, Tao Qian stood not far away with a smile, and said, "There is a man named Liu Keshi outside the door who wants to see you." ”
"Liu Keshi?" Zhong Qing frowned and thought about it, vaguely remembering that she was still in Yangzhou at that time, and she still remembered an incident with Ye Qing on a rainy day, and then within a few days, Ye Qing reprimanded a scholar who took the initiative to resign, and his name was Liu Keshi.
The cautious Liu Keshi took the lead in saluting Zhong Qing, and then handed over Ye Qing's handwritten letter in his arms to Tao Qian and handed it to Zhong Qing.
"Madam, it's not that the lower official deliberately delayed, it's really that the lower official has a humble status, and he has never been to Lin'an, and there are urgent matters explained by Lord Ye at hand, so I delayed coming to see Madame for a few days." Liu Keshi said with a hint of respect.
Zhong Qing smiled knowingly, looked at Ye Qing's handwriting on the letter cover, resisted the urge to open it immediately, and said lightly: "It's okay, Lord Liu is being sent, so naturally the dispatch should be the first priority." But I don't know...... Lord Liu came to Lin'an, and it was ....... ”
"Oh, Xia Guan is an envoy under Lord Ye, and Xia Guan is no longer a civil official, but a military general." From the moment Liu Keshi walked out of Chang'an City, he already knew that his future way out was in the army, but for him, after seeing more of the rough and arrogant northland, he, a native of Jiangnan, still had some expectations that he would be able to have his own place in the army in the future.
"Then Lord Liu, do you know that you came here this time, but you brought a lot of tails here?" Tao asked with a smile on the side.
Liu Keshi was stunned for a moment, but it was not because he was surprised that Tao Qian dared to ask him in front of Zhong Qing, but it was only at this time that he realized that the middle-aged man in front of him with a white face and beard actually ...... It turned out to be a eunuch!
Tao Qian has always had an ideal of being a foreigner, but since he was turned out of Jiankang by Ye Qing, he has become more and more distant from the goal of the outsider, but he is getting closer and closer to the porter and the follower, and he has not changed him until now, he is Zhong Qing's doorman, housekeeper, and follower, but even so, Tao Qian still hasn't changed it, that is, his layman who looks like a dog, so that people who don't know it can hardly believe that he is just a small porter.
"The lower official knows, the lower official knows that there is a tail behind him, and this is also the meaning of the adult, after the lower official completes some dispatches, he can swagger in Lin'an City, and when the time comes, the identity of the lower official will naturally attract the attention of others." Liu Keshi hurriedly explained to the porter.
Zhong Qing showed a knowing smile again, maybe others didn't understand Ye Qing's intentions, but Zhong Qing, who knew Ye Qing's intentions, was extremely sweet in his heart at this time.
The reason why Ye Qing let Liu Keshi suddenly reveal his identity so much, and then came to meet him, was obviously to warn those other forces in Lin'an, Zhong Qing's relationship with him Ye Qing and the importance, of course, it was also for Zhao Ruyu to see that he Ye Qing was not dead, so don't hit my woman's idea.
"Okay, in that case, you might as well take a rest for a while, I'm afraid someone will come here to ask you later." Zhong Qing nodded, and then motioned Tao Qian to accompany Liu Keshi, and after the maid served tea, she took Ye Qing's handwritten letter and walked to the study on the second floor.
Zhong Qing looked at Ye Qing's letters to her over and over again on the second floor, and the maid would knock on the study door from time to time and come in, telling him who was coming downstairs and who was leaving.
In just half a day, the Tonghuifang Ye Mansion, which had been deserted for more than a year or two years, was because of a visitor who was extremely faceless and dusty in the neighborhood, and then the carriage at the door of the Ye Mansion took turns to sing and stop me on the stage.
Liuzheng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Meng Heng of Dali Temple, Li Bi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Zheng Qingzhi, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, and even Qian Xiangzu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, also ran to the Ye Mansion of Tonghuifang in person in this half a day.
Zhong Qing sat on the chair that Ye Qing had been sitting on, with a sweet smile on the corner of his mouth, it was Zhao Ruyu's person, but he didn't expect it to be the first one to come, Dali Temple is Ye Qing's person, so take this opportunity, if he doesn't appear, it may make others suspicious, Li Bi is the person of Han Cheng, the left minister, obviously he is here to talk about it, perhaps, it has something to do with the queen.
As for Zheng Qingzhi of the household department, he was naturally supported by Shi Miyuan at the beginning, and he was also a disciple of Zhu Xi, and Qian Xiangzu was obviously sent by the queen Li Fengniang, but I don't know, will the queen come?
said that Cao Cao Cao was coming, just when Zhong Qing put down the letter and looked at the sunlight outside the window, the maid ran over again in a hurry, some of her couldn't stand the excitement in the house today, her little face flushed, and even said with a hint of pride: "Madam, the queen has entered Tonghuifang, and she will probably arrive at the gate of the mansion soon." ”
It's been a long time since I came to Ye Mansion, and I have never seen this pure Ye Mansion, which will become as lively as it is today.
Especially as a person came in, the porter who always had a majestic smile on his face that he was trying to pretend to be, would whisper to her: "This is Zheng Qingzhi, the head of the household, who seems to be high, but in fact he is very greedy." This is Qian Xiangzu, the secretary of the Criminal Department, the Qian family always knows, right? That's right, it's the Qian family who has been close to our Great Song royal family for hundreds of years. And this is amazing, Dali Temple Qing Meng Heng, the tiger father has no dogs, his father was a fierce general back then, but unfortunately when he came here, he became a civil official, but there are many civil officials, and his status is higher than that of military generals, and he can be regarded as earning ....... ”
Every time Tao Qian introduces one, the maid wants to say that it is Tao Qian's bragging, and a dignified book will come to this small Tonghui Fang?
But when she served tea and poured water, listened to the visitor Liu Keshi, talked to every so-called Shangshu, and quietly slipped to the door, looking at the gorgeous carriages and guards, the maid finally believed that these people were all big officials.
But even so, she never thought that one day she would be able to see the queen of the Great Song Dynasty in the mansion!
But just now, there was a eunuch standing at the door, shouting at the door in a voice similar to that of the porter who was sometimes anxious: Prepare to take over, the queen will be there soon, and when Mrs. Ye was asked to go out to greet her, the maid felt like she was dreaming, of course, even if she was dreaming, she had never dreamed that the queen would come to this deserted mansion for more than a year, but only recently there were some popular mansions.
"The last general of the Beidi Five Roads Jiedu envoy Ye Qingye under the command of Liu Keshi has seen the queen." After Bai Chun and the others saluted the graceful and elegant queen, Liu Keshi said with one last salute.
"You're from Jingzhaofu Road?" Li Fengniang went straight to the point, then stretched out her finger slightly, and motioned for Zhong Qing to sit on the chair next to her and ask Liu Keshi together.
"Back to the queen, the lower official is returning to Lin'an on the order of Lord Ye." Liu Keshi replied respectfully.
"Why didn't he come back on his own?" Li Fengniang's tone was aggressive, which was completely inconsistent with her image of a noble and generous queen in the past.
"Back to the queen, Lord Ye Guan Shan was seriously injured in the first battle, and now he is still recuperating in Chang'an City, Jingzhao Mansion, and he really can't travel a long distance, so he sent his subordinates to return to Lin'an first." Liu Keshi opened his eyes and said nonsense, of course, this can't be considered nonsense, after all, half of it is true.
Hearing that Ye Qing in Liu Keshi's mouth was seriously injured, Li Fengniang didn't know why, but her heart was relaxed, and she couldn't help but look at Zhong Qing next to her, and finally gritted her teeth and told herself to ask Zhong Qing next to her: "How is he injured?" Can I worry about my life? ”
"Back to the queen, when Xia Guan set off from Chang'an City, he just had no worries about his life, but he still couldn't get out of bed, and the doctor in Chang'an City predicted that he would not be able to act in three or five months, so he could only rest in bed." Liu Keshi's answer was extremely crisp, without any words, how to sound like the truth.
After Li Fengniang glanced at Zhong Qing again, this time it was Zhong Qing who opened her mouth and asked, "What is Lord Ye's mission to let you return to Lin'an?" ”
"Mrs. Hui, the queen, the lower official is on the order of Lord Ye, and he came back to ask to see Lord Shi Miyuanshi, the secretary of the ministry, and Lord Zheng Qingzhi, the secretary of the household department, who was fortunate enough to meet once just now. Although Lord Ye was seriously injured in the battle of Guanshan, even so, Lord Ye was still concerned about the victims of the four roads in the north, so the lower officials were ordered by Lord Ye to ask the court to renew the lives of the victims of the four roads in the north, which was equivalent to extending the lives and healing of Lord Ye, who was anxious, seriously injured, and concerned about the people. ”
"What if the court has no food?" Li Fengniang began to grit her teeth, how could she not hear Ye Qing's naked threat here?
If you don't give Lao Tzu food, Lao Tzu can't get better, and Lao Tzu won't let you feel better, when I get out of my hands and heal my injuries, see how I settle accounts with you when I return to Lin'an! If you are in a hurry, Lao Tzu will really rebel! Gold Investor! Wave the division to the south, don't be so good!
Li Fengniang gritted her teeth, and at the same time, she involuntarily appeared in her mind that the last time she had an affair with Ye Qing, Ye Qing was naked, and she Li Fengniang had a mess!
"This minister ......." Li Fengniang involuntarily scolded in a low voice.
Zhong Qingquan didn't hear it, but Liu Keshi didn't understand it at all, so he said: "Back to the queen, Lord Ye said that last year's Suhu grain harvest was ....... ”
"The affairs of the imperial court, I don't need you to remind the palace!" Li Fengniang's knife-like tone was sharp, and she said with some impatience.
"Yes, the lower official is guilty." Liu Keshi lowered his head and hurriedly replied.
Li Fengniang calmed down the anger that could be easily stirred up by the words of the minister even if she couldn't see the minister, and asked after being silent for a while, "Does Lord Ye have anything else to say?" ”
"Back to the queen, now Guanshan has been recaptured by Lord Ye, and it has become the choke point that chokes the Xia people in and out of my Great Song Dynasty. But because before the first day of the Jin and Xia countries did not abide by the covenant and treacherously, Chen soldiers secretly surrounded and suppressed Lord Ye in Guanshan, Lord Ye and his army planted flowers and fought hard with the thieves, and the army of the flower family under his command was almost wiped out, and the battle of Guanshan was also destroyed in this battle. Lord Ye has always been worried about this matter, so when the lower officials returned to Lin'an this time, they also obeyed Lord Ye's order, and begged the imperial court to allocate the silver two to repair and strengthen the Guanshan ....... What Liu Keshi said was righteous and impassioned, but in exchange for a sneer from Li Fengniang.
Li Fengniang sneered and snorted, and then the corners of her mouth still showed a trace of disdain: "Is that the palace can think so, is the Jingzhao Mansion already poor now, and even the silver for Lord Ye's medical treatment can't afford it?" ”
Liu Keshi was taken aback, and hurriedly hit the snake and said with the stick: "The queen is wise, that's exactly the case, and now Lord Ye's diagnosis is ......." ”
"Nonsense, nonsense!" Li Fengniang's willow eyebrows rose upside down and scolded angrily.
She never expected that a small envoy under Ye Qing's command would dare to talk nonsense and nonsense in front of her, without blinking her eyes, just like the virtue of that minister, what kind of general brings out what kind of soldier!
