Wanyan Yongji obviously didn't expect that Ye Qing would make such a request, and even named this Yelu Chucai to stay in Jinan, so as to consolidate the alliance between the two countries.

However, because of Ye Qing's assassination, he didn't tell about it, Wanyan Yongji still thought about it a little, and then agreed to Ye Qing's request, and even repeatedly assured Ye Qing that he would not engage in these small actions behind his back in the future.

Ye Qing didn't believe in such words, and he came to ask for the crime today completely because of Yelu Chucai, if he didn't want to leave Yelu Chucai in Jinan, Ye Qing didn't bother to investigate Wanyan Yongji for not reminding him of anything.

What's more, in judging that the Mongols would cause trouble, Ye Qing had judged the wrong direction, and it had nothing to do with anyone, and the reason why he was so angry with Wanyan Yongji was naturally because of Yelu Chucai, and now Song Qiangjin was weak, so that he had enough confidence and strength to attribute all the faults to Wanyan Yongji.

When leaving the Jinren Post House, Ye Qing was still a little uneasy, and told Jia She, who would stay at the Jinren Post House until dawn, to watch Yelu Chucai and not let him take the opportunity to escape.

Jia Shi only nodded firmly, although Jia Shi didn't understand why Ye Qing wanted to keep Yelu Chucai, he believed that Ye Qing must have his own reasons, otherwise he would never do so.

When he returned to the mansion, maybe because he was frightened at this moment tonight, he had been waiting for Ye Qing's return.

The entire Ye Mansion was still heavily guarded, and Mo Xiaobao personally led people to guard the attic around it in case the Mongols attacked again.

Xin Qiji was still busy outside the city, and Zhong Silkworm did not find any suspicious Mongolians at the post house where King Qing and Chongguo Gong were located, but even so, Ye Qing still did not dare to be careless, and still let Zhong Silkworm continue to stay at the post house until the Mongols left tomorrow.

Seeing the still worried and nervous eyes of the two women, Ye Qing walked up to the two of them, one left and one right, and slowly hugged the two, and said softly: "It's okay, I was careless tonight, but now the matter has been resolved." ”

"Is it really a Mongol?" Zhong Qing sat down next to Ye Qing on the other side, still a little frightened and asked.

Everything tonight came unexpectedly, making people unprepared, completely beyond the imagination of Zhong Qing and Fang Fei, in Lin'an, although there are undercurrents surging everywhere, but after all, I don't want to be like this in Jinan, everything happens so fast, so unprepared.

Especially when the two of them, according to Mo Xiaobao's request, just after blowing out the candles, there was a sound of collision in the hall on the first floor, which made the two women raise their nervous hearts to their throats.

In the dark attic, they couldn't warn Mo Xiaobao, for fear of revealing their location, and whether an assassin really came in, or where the assassin was at that time, for the two women, this uncertain danger increased the tension and fear in their hearts.

Fear often comes from the unknown, and fear sometimes comes from the illusion of fear in the heart, so that the fear is infinitely magnified in the heart, and the more cranky it is, the more powerful and evil the fear is like a demon in the heart.

In October of the first year of Qingyuan, at the end of the autumn harvest, the Mongols left Jinan Mansion, King Qing took a team of people to Kaifeng Mansion, Wanyan Yongji left Yelu Chucai, and then returned to Yanjing of Jin with the letter of alliance with satisfaction.

Three days later, in Lin'an City, almost all the officials above the court learned the news that Ye Qing was almost assassinated in Jinan Mansion for the first time, and all the officials were a little incredulous about Ye Qing and the Mongols suddenly turning against each other.

Ye Qing has a good relationship with the Mongols, this is a fact that almost everyone agrees, whether it is the earliest time when they went west to Khwarazm together, or in the matter of destroying Xia, both of them showed an excellent tacit understanding, so it stands to reason that Ye Qing at this time should ally with the Mongols, but in the end, Ye Qing chose to ally with the Jinren.

Although Ye Qing's intention to choose to join the Jin people had been clearly known to the imperial court before, no one believed that Ye Qing would choose to ally with the Jin people to fight against the Mongols.

Therefore, the news that Ye Qing was almost assassinated by the Mongols in Jinan was like a boulder in the Lin'an court, which caused huge waves in the court, causing everyone to talk about it for a while.

Naturally, among the voices of many officials, most of the officials, especially those led by Shi Miyuan, thought that this was a sign that Ye Qing wanted to seek self-reliance in the north, so he would ally with the Jin people and stay away from the Mongols.

Such voices naturally occupy the majority above the court, and Liuzheng and Xie Shenfu and others, although they do not believe that Ye Qing will stand on their own, but now the alliance with the Jin people has become a fact, which also makes them unable to defend Ye Qing above the court for a while, of course, they have no intention of defending Ye Qing at all.

The only one who wanted to defend Ye Qing was Li Lifang, but Li Lifang's voice alone was obviously too small, like a small wave, and it was instantly submerged in the huge wave of others.

Bi Zaiyu and Qian Xiangzu are like nothing to do, no matter how Li Lifang wants to shout,

or anxiously scratching his ears and cheeks, Bi Zaiyu and Qian Xiangzu have always been indifferent and have nothing to do with themselves.

Li Lifang, who was in the back of the court, ignored the strange eyes of other officials, as if he wished that everyone else knew that he was now on the same position as Ye Qing, and stopped Bi Zaiyu and Qian Xiangzu and began to question.

Bi Zaiyu and Qian Xiangzu looked at Li Lifang's anxious appearance, and said with a smile: "Doesn't Lord Li know that there is a big reason for this, is it all the rumors deliberately released by Lord Ye?" ”

Li Lifang was obviously stunned for a moment, and said a little confused: "This kind of thing...... How could anyone be willing to pour dirty water on himself for this kind of thing, didn't he know the holy ....... ”

After speaking, Li Lifang deliberately lowered his voice: "Has he forgotten the letter I gave him a few days ago?" The Holy One was already suspicious of him, how could he dare to disobey the Holy One at such a time? Are you really impatient? ”

Bi Zaiyu and Qian Xiangzu glanced at each other, and then Bi Zaiyu whispered to Li Lifang: "If Lord Ye is not like this, how can you make the saint believe that Lord Li did not report to him?" Lord Li, to put it bluntly, Lord Ye doesn't want to drag you down. Of course, when it comes to the alliance with the Jin people, although the two of us don't know much about Lord Ye's purpose, I guess that Lord Ye must have a reason for forming an alliance with the Jin people with the Far Mongols. ”

Just when Li Lifang was seeking answers with Bi Zaiyu and Qian Xiangzu, Zhao Kuo, who was still innocent and a little dazed, and his still slightly immature face became gloomy, so that not only Wei Jing next to him, but even the eunuchs in front and back could feel that the saint was in a very bad mood at this time.

Ye Qing's purpose in doing this also made Zhao Kuo a little unguessable, even when Ye Qing was still in Lin'an, it was already clear that Ye Qing would form an alliance with the Jin people to fight against the Mongols, but when all this really happened, the reaction of all the officials in the court was still beyond expectations, and even Zhao Kuo faintly felt a trace of unease.

Li Lifang's voice of defending Ye Qing in the court today, Zhao Kuo naturally heard it clearly, but it was precisely because Li Lifang loudly defended Ye Qing that Zhao Kuo began to be a little uncertain in the court, did Li Lifang inform Ye Qing of the conversation with him in the Qinzheng Hall that day, as he expected?

If Ye Qing was informed, and Ye Qing still ignored himself and insisted on forming an alliance with the Jin people, then does it mean ...... Does Ye Qing really have an objection?

And if Li Lifang hadn't informed Ye Qing of the conversation he had with him in the Qinzheng Palace that day, wouldn't that be tantamount to saying that the strategy he thought was clever had been stillborn without implementing it at all?

No matter which result it is, it will be a big blow to Zhao Kuo's young heart, Ye Qing knows that he is dissatisfied with him, and he still forms an alliance with the Jin people, which makes him feel uneasy, Ye Qing does not know that he is dissatisfied with him, and chooses to form an alliance with the Jin people, which makes him feel a little frustrated.

When he was about to arrive at the Qinzheng Hall from the Vertical Arch Palace, Zhao Kuo, who had hesitated and struggled all the way, finally stopped, frowned and thought for a while, and said, "Go to the Queen Mother." ”

Li Fengniang was listening to Zhu Ye'er report about Ye Qing's assassination in Jinan, and couldn't help but feel a sudden tension in her heart, and then when Zhu Ye'er said that Ye Qing was fine, she could obviously feel that Li Fengniang's tense expression immediately eased.

"The scourge is a thousand years old, and this palace knows that the minister is not so calculating, if he is so calculating, Ye Qing doesn't know how many times he has to die over the years." Li Fengniang had a relaxed smile on the corner of her mouth, now as long as Ye Qing is alive and as long as she guards the northern land, then the two of them have nothing to worry about in Lin'an, no matter how the courtiers will fight each other, but as long as there is no external trouble of Jinren, she can rest assured and boldly let Zhao Kuo try the affairs of the court.

Of course, letting Zhao Kuo try it like this, naturally hopes that Zhao Kuo can grow faster, and be able to take charge of the court alone and deter the ministers as soon as possible, so that the officials above the court do not all look at the eyes of Shi Miyuan, Liuzheng and others, but respect the will of the saint.

"Yes, Lord Ye will definitely be blessed with a great life, and he will never be succeeded by the Mongols. But then again, this Mongolian is too bold, and he dares to make a move against Lord Ye in Jinan, whether they have something to rely on or really don't want to die. Zhu Ye'er whispered on the side.

"And what is the end result? With the character of that minister, who must be retribution, wouldn't he want to kill all the Mongols who came to Jinan? In this case, it seems that Mongolia, which has just been founded, will soon be destroyed, and then it will be cheap again. Li Fengniang said with some emotion.

Zhu Ye'er chuckled lightly beside her and said, "Queen, you guessed wrong this time, Lord Ye didn't embarrass the Mongols ....... ”

"Really?" Li Fengniang frowned slightly, and her heart couldn't help but be shocked: "Could it be that Ye Qing still has any scruples?" ”

"The slave maid doesn't know, but the news from Jinan is that Lord Ye magnanimously released the Mongols, and even personally sent the Mongols out of the city early the next morning." Zhu Ye'er was also a little unclear, what was Ye Qing's purpose in doing this, was it really as the Queen Mother said, Ye Qing's fear of the Mongols was even greater than that of the right

What is the value of the gold people?

"How about King Qing and Chongguo Gong, were you injured that night?" Li Fengniang inexplicably remembered the two clans and asked.

"No, the Mongols only launched an assassination against Lord Ye alone, whether it was the Jin people's Weishao King Wanyan Yongji or King Qing and others, they were not affected that night. From this point of view, the goal of the Mongols is Lord Ye alone, and they are completely aimed at Lord Ye. Zhu Ye'er continued to explain to Li Fengniang.

"What about Zhong Qing? Didn't you die by the sword of the Mongols? Also, if Zhong Qing died, Ye Qing was afraid that he would not be so magnanimous. Li Fengniang was full of unhappiness when she thought of Zhong Qing, and now she even gave birth to a male heir for Ye Qing, which makes Ye Qing value Zhong Qing even more, and even don't forget to take it with her when she goes to Jinan.

With the palace maid's report, when Zhao Kuo had arrived outside the Cining Palace, the corners of Li Fengniang's mouth once again had a smile: "It seems that Ye Qing's alliance with the Jin people makes Kuo'er feel inappropriate." ”

"Today, in the court, because Lord Ye and the Jin people have formed an alliance, and almost everyone thinks that Lord Ye's move is to prepare for self-reliance in the north in the future, so they will give up the alliance with the Mongols to fight Jin, and choose to form an alliance with the Jin people to fight against Jin." Zhu Ye'er reminded Li Fengniang of what happened in the court today.

Li Fengniang took a long breath, and then said lightly: "It seems that Kuo'er is here for this matter, but ...... Why did Ye Qing do this? Didn't he know that this would arouse Kuo'er's suspicion? Let him in. ”

Li Fengniang finally said to the palace maid, and then when she saw Zhao Kuo with a happy smile on her face, she still didn't figure out what Ye Qing's purpose was when she was frowning slightly, and even ...... She also vaguely felt that there seemed to be something she didn't know about, and it seemed that there was a hint of conspiracy everywhere in some places.

As Zhao Kuo saluted Li Fengniang, the other palace maids and eunuchs, except for Zhu Ye'er, all withdrew from the palace of Cining Palace.

"What's going on with Kuo'er today, so happy? But the queen mother heard that in the court today, it seems that the ministers are arguing in the court because of the alliance between Ye Qing and the Jin people. Li Fengniang smiled and motioned for Zhao Kuo to sit down and speak.

"Kuo'er was happy to see her mother. As for the matter of the court, it was the matter of Kuo'er who came to ask her mother for advice. Today, my uncle tried his best to defend Ye Qing above the court, so Erchen couldn't judge it, what was Ye Qing's alliance with the Jin people in the north now? Therefore, she hopes that the queen mother can help her son solve his doubts. Zhao Kuo was in front of Li Fengniang, and he did not hide the doubts in his heart at all.

Of course, except for what Li Lifang said in the Dianjiangtai and the Qinzheng Palace.

"What do you think?" Li Fengniang asked without answering.

Although Kuo'er wanted to believe her uncle's words to defend Ye Qing, she ...... I really couldn't convince my sons. And what other officials above the court said was more reasonable than what his uncle said, so ...... At this time, Kuo'er still believed more in what the ministers said, Ye Qing was suspected of wanting to stand on his own feet in the north. His alliance with the Jin people must have been the first step towards self-reliance in the future, and he hoped that when he became self-reliant in the future, he would be able to get the recognition and support of the Jin people. Zhao Kuo did not hide his inner thoughts at all and said.

"In this way, it seems that the matter of opening the seal as a stay is already imminent." Li Fengniang sighed slightly, Ye Qing's thoughts she couldn't guess either, after all, this man has always been like this, for so many years, almost everything has been done against the imperial court.

When the imperial court wanted to form an alliance with the Jin people, he chose to resist the Jin, and when the imperial court wanted to resist the Jin, he chose to attack the Xia, or form an alliance with the Jin people in the form of a national letter.

Erchen also thought that the matter of staying in the capital was imminent, no matter what the result was, Erchen thought that it was a good constraint for Ye Qing. It's just that...... Erchen was afraid that such a decision to make Kaifeng the capital would make Ye Qing unhappy, thus accelerating his self-reliance in the North. The real concern in Zhao Kuo's heart is precisely because of this.

King Qing was not embarrassed by Ye Qing in Jinan Mansion, which made Zhao Kuo's perfect plan suddenly useless, and he couldn't judge whether Ye Qing was disdainful or had a trace of concern for him, the young emperor, through the reaction of Ye Qing he wanted.

Now that King Qing has gone to Kaifeng, and Ye Qing also needs to choose to form an alliance with the Jin people, not only will he not be able to detect anything through Ye Qing's reaction, but he will be passive everywhere, no matter what he does, I am afraid that he will fall into Ye Qing's eyes and be analyzed, as if he is subject to others everywhere, or he will always be one step behind others, no matter how Zhao Kuo plans, I am afraid it will be in Ye Qing's expectations.

"He won't be upset, even...... Nor will he stand on his own feet in the Northland. If Kuo'er has figured it out, he might as well make an order to set Kaifeng Mansion as the capital of stay. As for Ye Qing's alliance with the Jin people, although the queen mother has not figured it out yet, the queen mother guessed that Ye Qing did not choose to form an alliance with the Jin people in order to stand on his own feet in the north in the future. Li Fengniang looked at Zhao Kuo seriously and said.

Zhao Kuo wanted to ask Li Fengniang why he was so sure, but looking at the familiar expression on Li Fengniang's face, with his experience since he was sensible, he also knew that he was afraid that the queen mother would not tell him the answer after asking.
