"I want to lead my troops." Zhao Kuo, who had been entangled in his heart for a long time, finally looked at Ye Qing and said nervously.

"Why?" Ye Qing was a little surprised, but Zhao Kuo's eyes that looked at him at this time were full of longing and heat.

"Because you asked me when you were in the palace...... There is no ambition comparable to the Han and Tang Dynasties. Zhao Kuo seemed a little weak-hearted, but at this time, under Ye Qing's gaze, he said stubbornly: "I don't know if I have the ability to do it, but ...... But I really want to try, at least to feel the cruelty of the war for myself, instead of staying in this flowery city of Lin'an all the time. ”

"You are driving the expedition, what should you do with the court?" Ye Qing took a deep breath, trying to figure out that Zhao Kuo's suggestion was not impulsive, but that he was really ambitious.

"I believe in you, King Yan, just as the queen mother trusts you." Zhao Kuo looked at Ye Qing, his eyes were full of sincerity and said: "I am only responsible for leading the troops, as for marching and fighting, I also hope that King Yan can help me choose some generals who can fight well." I don't expect me to be able to be like you on the battlefield, but ...... I thought that maybe I could only be a good king if I realized the cruelty and hardship of war, so I felt that I might need such an opportunity. ”

Ye Qing looked at Zhao Kuo's sincerity, but he silently lowered his head, because Ziqi and Luodian were suppressed by Han Yanxuan, so even if Zhao Kuo personally led the troops to go, there would be no big mess, naturally, there was no need to worry about Zhao Kuo's safety.

But Zhao Kuo wants to drive the personal expedition, obviously it is not something that can be calculated by saying it himself, this must pass Li Fengniang's level, and with his understanding of Li Fengniang, Zhao Kuo wants to personally conquer the matter, I am afraid that nine times out of ten there will be a difficult birth in Li Fengniang.

"Your queen mother ......." Ye Qing raised his head and said.

"I'll persuade you from the Queen Mother, you just have to give me the best general in war. I promise that I will never interfere with their leading troops, I just want to...... I was able to really see what war was like and how different it was from life in Lin'an. Zhao Kuo's tone was very sincere, and even Ye Qing was a little moved.

Looking at Ye Qing, who was a little moved, but still a little hesitant, Zhao Kuo obviously knew that King Yan was afraid that he was more worried about his mother's feelings, so after thinking for a while, he continued: "Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, it has emphasized literature and light martial arts, and this is what you have always been unwilling to see. So if it is an emperor, an ambitious emperor, if he can't change all this, what can he talk about changing the day of the Great Song Dynasty? Rather, it is like a new bottle of old wine, without any new ideas. Since I want to surpass others to compare with the Han and Tang Dynasties, if I don't know what the battlefield of war is, then how can I establish the majesty of a king among the civil and military generals above the court? ”

"You can choose all the generals in the Northland, but ...... I don't know about it yet, and you haven't mentioned it to me, and I won't know what you've just said until your mother agrees. Ye Qing took the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, and then looked at Zhao Kuo and bargained.

Zhao Kuo looked at Ye Qing's serious expression, but he couldn't help but want to laugh in his heart, he never thought that King Yan, who was able to call the wind and rain in the northern land and even in the entire Great Song Dynasty now, would be so afraid of his mother.

It was precisely because of Ye Qing's jealousy of Li Fengniang in front of Zhao Kuo that Zhao Kuo was suddenly very curious, when did the queen mother Li Fengniang and Yanwang Ye Qing meet? Are they childhood sweethearts since childhood, and then they have to be broken up? Or did he say that when Ye Qing was in a high position, he ...... with his mother.

When Ye Qing and Zhao Kuo entered a short silence again in the Fengbo Pavilion in Dali Temple, in the Cining Hall of the palace, the current Empress Yan was crying in front of Li Fengniang at this time, talking about the fact that her father Yan Keji's shops were sealed by Yan King Ye Qing.

And although Li Fengniang did not summon Zhao Kuo to the Cining Palace in the past few days, it does not mean that Li Fengniang has been indifferent to Zhao Kuo's every move after becoming confident in the palace.

Therefore, it is precisely because Li Fengniang has put almost all her thoughts on Zhao Kuo's reaction in the past few days, so that she has not paid attention to Ye Qing's every move in Lin'an City at all in the past few days.

Listening to the Yan family's crying and grievances in front of her, Li Fengniang's heart instantly rose with anger, and this anger was obviously not aimed at the Yan family in front of her, but at Ye Qing.

Ye Qing knew that Yan Keji was the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, and he was unwilling to turn a blind eye to this matter, but why did he have to take the initiative to provoke Yan Keji? Does he still think that the relationship between him and Zhao Kuo is not bad enough?

"You get up first." Li Fengniang endured the dissatisfaction with Ye Qing in her heart, and said lightly to the Yan clan who was kneeling in front of her.

"Have you ever mentioned this to the Holy Lord?" After Li Fengniang saw Yan sit down, she opened her mouth again.

Yan Shi nodded silently at first, and then Pear Blossom said with rain: "The concubine body has mentioned it to the saint, but the meaning of the saint is ....... After Yan glanced at Li Fengniang with some uncertainty, he continued to say cautiously: "The saint means that King Yan did this, presumably because of his considerations, so that the concubine does not have to worry about this matter." The concubine does not care about those shops for her father, but because her father's health has always been not very good, and the concubine is afraid of her father's ....... ”

"You mean...... Kuo'er thinks that this matter should be listened to by King Yan? Li Fengniang asked with some surprise.

Yan nodded silently and continued: "I'm afraid it's because King Yan saved the Holy Lord in King Xin's Mansion a few days ago, so the Holy Lord handed over Shi Miyuan's case to King Yan to deal with, perhaps...... It is precisely because of this that the Holy One is reluctant to ask about this. But...... 's father thinks that King Yan has only blocked the shops of the Yan family and other officials in Lin'an in the past few days, but he is indifferent to Xie Shenfu's shops in Lin'an, thinking that King Yan is suspected of fake public welfare and suppressing dissidents, and wants to ...... in the court. ”

"You mean, the reason why King Yan suppressed your father was for the rights of the court? And also open up to Xie Shenfu? Li Fengniang's tone was questioning.

Yan's gaze hurriedly avoided Li Fengniang's majestic phoenix eyes, lowered his head and continued: "The concubine is in the harem, and she doesn't know about the affairs of the court, these ...... These are all things that the concubine heard her father say, and maybe ....... ”

"You go back first, since you have informed this palace, this palace will give you and your father justice. But...... If the truth is not what your father said, then don't blame this palace for not helping your Yan family. Li Fengniang's eyes flashed a trace of disgust for the Yan family, and then she motioned for Qingqiu to send the Yan family out.

After watching Yan's back disappear from sight, Li Fengniang sighed a little helplessly, after all, she still didn't expect that Zhao Kuo's acceptance of Ye Qing's matter was faster than she imagined.

I thought that Zhao Kuo would never accept this matter so easily, but if what Yan said was true, then it was enough to show that Zhao Kuo at this time obviously had no knots and dissatisfaction with the matter between her and Ye Qing.

"Then Ye Qing is really doing nonsense in Lin'an City these days?" Li Fengniang picked up the teacup, then sighed and put it down, a little uncertain: "You just said that Kuo'er left the palace, so where did he go?" Also, did Ye Qing really shield Xie Shenfu in Shi Miyuan's matter because of Xie Shenfu's granddaughter? Let Qingqiu check on this matter later. I always feel that Yan's words are a little difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, and I am afraid that things are not as simple as she said. ”

Zhu Ye'er glanced at the worried Li Fengniang on the side, and after thinking about it, she still said: "Don't talk about Xie Shenfu for the time being, but Yan Keji's matter, I'm afraid there are a lot of strange things." ”

"How?" Li Fengniang asked a little puzzled.

"It is a well-known fact that Yan Keji, a scholar, is close to Shi Miyuan. And the seventeen shops that the queen said just now that were blocked by King Yan should actually have something to do with Shi Miyuan, not by Yan Keji's hard work, presumably King Yan's sealing of these shops is also related to Shi Miyuan....... Zhu Ye'er said with a wink of her eyes.

Li Fengniang glanced at Zhu Ye'er with some dissatisfaction, and then said: "There are some things, you don't need to cover up and make up for him, haven't you seen it yet?" The Yan clan also said just now that Kuo'er had already acquiesced to what Ye Qing did in Lin'an, which was enough to explain the problem. Originally, I thought he wanted to test Kuo'er's attitude towards him through Yan Keji, but now it seems that ...... Ye Qing is afraid that he has other plans, which makes Bengong can't help but be a little worried...... ”

"Are you worried that the Holy Lord will be led in another direction by King Yan?" Zhu Ye'er didn't say anything for fear of being taken away, and she seemed a little euphemistic.

"yes, just look at that." Li Fengniang handed a letter to Zhu Ye'er Dao.

Zhu Ye'er looked at the unsigned letter, and when she was puzzled, she heard Li Fengniang explain: "This is a letter from the wife of Zhao Shichun, the king of Wu, who replied to me. In order to appease Ye Qing, didn't he hope to marry the two daughters of Zhao Shichun of the clan to Ye Qing's eldest son and second son? At the beginning of Yangzhou, Ye Mansion and Zhao Mansion were neighbors, and in this letter, some things were said about Ye Qing's two sons when they were in Yangzhou. ”

Li Fengniang said, Zhu Ye'er stood aside and read the letter, and then couldn't help laughing from time to time, and even when she saw the ridiculous place, she had to cover her mouth with her hand under Li Fengniang's white eyes, for fear that she would lose her etiquette by laughing in front of Li Fengniang.

"The two sons of the Ye family can be said to have grown up in Yangzhou, so before leaving Yangzhou for Yanjing, almost everyone in Yangzhou knew about it, and in their Ye family's academy, they regarded the two daughters of Zhao Shichun of the clan as their little daughters-in-law." Li Fengniang had a headache and said: "Look at what was said later, just because the children of other families looked at Zhao Ling'er more, they were beaten by the two brothers of the Ye family in front of Mr. and their noses were swollen, and the two brothers were only six years old at that time." ”

"If you don't look at the rules of the palace, it's quite interesting. In this way, the four of them can be said to be really childhood sweethearts...... "Zhu Ye'er loves the house and Wu, but she thinks that the two sons of the Ye family are so domineering and cute when they are young.

Li Fengniang snorted dissatisfiedly, and continued: "You love the house and Wu, but this is enough to show that he Ye Qing is superior to others whether he leads the army to fight or the court fight, but in terms of nurturing children, he is obviously not so proud." The two sons were educated like two little overlords, if Kuo'er had been in contact with Ye Qing for too long, maybe one day, he would run to the Cining Palace and tell me that he was going to lead the troops to fight in person....... ”

"You are too worried, the Holy One succeeded to the throne at a young age, and in the past few years, you can also see the efforts and growth of the Holy One, right? Especially...... After passing through the matter of the Xinwang Mansion, don't you feel that the Holy Lord is actually more stable than before? Therefore, according to the slave maid, the saint will never become ...... because he has been with King Yan for a long time. Zhu Ye'er said to Li Fengniang with relief.

"I hope it's like you say, but it's still ......." Li Fengniang said halfway, and then saw Qingqiu walking in from the outside with a relaxed step, with an excited smile on his face, he saluted and said to Li Fengniang: "Queen Mother, the Holy Lord is now at the Cining Palace, I just met the queen at the gate of the palace, I'm afraid this is coming." ”
