Chapter 846: Poor popularity
The weather in September ushered in a small snowflake in the Great Liao Wangcheng, which made the Great Liao Wangcheng so quiet and peaceful, with white tents, white grasslands, white mountains, and clear rivers, which made people feel as if they were in a dream.
In Lin'an City in the south, the weather is still a little hot at this time, especially the humid and hot climate, which often makes people sweat unconsciously in their sleep.
Li Fengniang woke up from the dream again, the pajamas on her body had been soaked with sweat again, her eyes were full of sadness and happiness, there were still a little crystal tears in the corners of her eyes, her face was a little pale, and her chest rose and fell violently with the sound of rapid panting.
She dreamed of Ye Qing again, dreamed that Ye Qing was besieged by the army of Xia people and Jin people, on the tragic battlefield, the sound of fighting shook the sky, the sound of war horses roared, the soldiers next to Ye Qing fell one by one, Xia people and Jin people still rushed towards the mountain where Ye Qing was like a tide, until there was no Song people around Ye Qing, and then Ye Qing's head was cut off with a cruel smile.
Zhu Ye'er was already standing in front of the bed, looking down and not daring to look at the queen with great contrasts in emotions these days, serving cautiously beside her, for fear that if she made a mistake, she would attract the queen's reprimand, after all, there were already two palace maids this month, and for some reason, they were kicked out of the palace by the queen.
"What's the matter?" Li Fengniang, who was in shock, wiped the sweat on her forehead and asked a little panting.
"Zhong Qing is asking to see the queen outside the palace?" Zhu Ye'er said respectfully.
"No, no, tell her that this palace is uncomfortable these days, and I won't see her." Li Fengniang looked stunned, her pupils contracted involuntarily, and she hurriedly waved her hand and said.
Signaling the other palace maids to Li Fengniang to hand over a wet handkerchief to wipe her face, Zhu Ye'er answered and turned around and walked out, she was used to the queen's refusal to see love, and this answer was also expected, these days, I don't know how many times I refused.
Looking at Bai Chun and Zhong Qing outside the Ciyuan Palace, Zhu Ye'er sighed silently in her heart: "The two ladies, the queen phoenix is sick, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the two ladies today, the two ladies should go back." ”
Although Zhu Ye'er didn't know what had happened during this time, from Zhong Qing and Bai Chun's lonely expressions, she could still feel that something big had happened, otherwise, it would be impossible for these two beautiful ladies to be so haggard during this time.
After Zhong Qing thanked Zhu Ye'er, the two girls reluctantly glanced at the hall behind Zhu Ye'er, and the miracle they were looking forward to in their hearts did not happen, so they could only turn around and walk towards the outside of the palace.
"I want to go to Jingzhaofu Road." After walking out of He Ning's door, Bai Chun stopped and said suddenly.
Zhong Qing stopped and said in silence: "What about home?" What about the child? ”
Bai Chun looked at Zhong Qing's also haggard face, and sighed helplessly: "You continue to stay in Gushan, Allure continues to stay in Yangzhou, and I will go alone." ”
"If you leave us with him, will we be fine, this family...... It's no longer home. Zhong Qing smiled sadly.
"If he is...... If he had a case, I wouldn't want to live. Bai Chun's tears flowed involuntarily.
Even when her father was deposed, she didn't have the feeling of helplessness now, but today she not only deeply felt the feeling of helplessness, but also the entire Lin'an City became more and more strange and impersonal in her eyes.
These days, there is always a sense of helplessness that the sky should not be used and the earth is not working, and after running into walls everywhere, she no longer knows how to help Ye Qing resolve the current crisis.
"People often say that good people don't live long, and disasters will last for thousands of years, don't worry, he won't live so short." At this time, Zhong Qing was much stronger than Bai Chun, but in the end, she still showed the weak side of women: "If it is...... If that time comes, I'll be with you. ”
Although Zhong Qing is strong, she has nothing to fear of losing now, her parents died because of Zhao Ruyu's revenge, and she is still alive now, and it is completely because of her relationship with Ye Qing, so once Ye Qing has an accident, Zhong Qing herself doesn't know what she can live for.
And Bai Chun has been immersed in reminiscing about her and Ye Qing for most of the time, and for the current crisis, after finding many people in Lin'an, but there is still no way, she has become more and more desperate.
Especially as Liu Lan'er guessed that Jin and Xia might have secretly colluded with Zhao Ruyu to ambush Ye Qing on Ye Qing's return trip, Bai Chun felt that the end of the world had come to his head.
Liang Xing's carriage carried two women like walking corpses, slowly from He Ningmen to Yujie, the two women in the carriage were silent, making the atmosphere more silent and dignified, as the lively voices outside the carriage became more and more noisy, Bai Chun suddenly raised his head and said: "I want to kill Zhao Ruyu, and then set off for Jingzhaofu Road." ”
Zhong Qing opened her mouth, she wanted to stop Bai Chun from acting so impulsively, but for some reason, she nodded heavily and agreed: "Well, I'll go with you to ...... then." ”
Before he could finish speaking, the carriage stopped first, and then he could feel that there was another person on the empty wheel.
"Old Liu?" Liang Xing, who was outside the car, looked at the dusty old Liu Tou with a strange expression and said in surprise.
"Be quiet, can you be in the car?" Old Liu Tou said as he glanced at the carriage behind him.
After Liang Xing nodded, Bai Chun's somewhat anxious voice came from behind him: "Uncle Liu, is there any news of Ye Qing?" ”
"That's right, this kid should have just left to rush back from Daliao, this is the letter, you take it." As soon as Lao Liu Tou finished speaking, a hand was immediately stretched out at the window of the carriage.
After handing the letter to Bai Chun, he continued: "Don't worry, that kid is as cunning as a fox, and nothing will happen." ”
Liang Xing couldn't help but glance at Lao Liu Tou, and continued to drive the carriage forward, of course he knew what the two women in the carriage were worried about these days, in fact, he was also full of worries in his heart, and tried to convene Lao Liu Tou, Zhao Qi'er, Po Li San and others to discuss countermeasures, but for most of the month, he really couldn't contact these people.
Now that the old Liu Tou came out of the dust, Liang Xing was shocked, glanced at the smiling old Liu Tou, lowered his voice and asked, "Is there any news?" ”
"The navy army changed its steps and rode secretly north, and met Ye Qing in Jingzhao Mansion." Lao Liu leaned over and whispered in Liang Xing's ear: "Don't let them know, today's situation is a little difficult, they know so as not to worry blindly, if they act rashly, they may also startle the snake, so that the family is more prepared." ”
Liang Xing nodded clearly, no matter what the situation is, but at least there is movement, I am afraid that there is no movement, and it is completely hopeless to sit back and wait.
The faces of the two women in the carriage looked slightly better, and they were no longer as depressed and depressed as they had been at the beginning, and they read the letter carefully at the same time, fearing that they would miss a word and mistake the meaning of every sentence.
It is roughly the same as what Lao Liu Tou said to Liang Xing, but there are more fleshy love words between husband and wife, and it does not reveal too much about the current situation that is unfavorable to him, but tells the two daughters that the relationship with Zhao Ruyu has been stiff, but don't continue to deteriorate.
In short, Ye Qing's letter was to stabilize Bai Chun, Zhong Qing, and Yan Qingcheng, and then as for whether he could return to the Song court from the Xia Kingdom, he could only do his best to obey the fate of heaven, if it was really heaven that would kill him...... He didn't do it either.
"It's just that I'm reluctant to leave this world of flowers, and I'm reluctant to be separated from Bai Chun and their yin and yang." Ye Qing on horseback, Mo Xiaobao on one side, Zhong Silkworm on the other, the current situation, not only the three of them are clear, but the entire flower planting army, all know that they are about to face a battle of life and death.
Separated from Yeluyue ten days ago, and all the wealth that came over was also left in the Great Liao Wangcheng, on the one hand, his future was uncertain, and bringing those with him was probably only cheaper Xia people, and the other reason was that Ye Qing hoped that if he died, one day when Temujin attacked Liao, he would be able to look at the friendship of those who plundered the wealth at the beginning, and give Yeluyue a way out.
As for Yan Qingcheng, Bai Chun and Zhong Qing who are far away in Yangzhou, as well as his two sons and a daughter who have not yet met, Ye Qing is reluctant, but he will not be as worried as Ye Luyue, after all, when the Tatar iron cavalry began to invade the Great Song Dynasty in the south, and completely captured the Great Song Dynasty, I am afraid that only his son and daughter will still be alive, and Bai Chun and they will probably die of old age.
"Don't worry, my lord, even if I die, I will find me ten backs, and I can't do one less." Mo Xiaobao gritted his teeth and said.
Different from Ye Qing's relaxed and freehand expression along the way, whether it was Mo Xiaobao or Zhong Silkworm, since they set off, they all looked like they were facing a great enemy, and as they got closer and closer to Kedun City, Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm also began to shuttle through the army more frequently, always reminding the army to prepare for battle.
"Do you want to rest in the city of Kodun?" Zhong Silkworm asked with some concern, he wanted to rest on the spot, and then wait a few hours before passing through the border area of Xia and Liao in the night.
"Of course, we have to go into the city to rest and recuperate, and tell the army, don't be so nervous, and make it look like a great enemy, so don't you tell the Xia people that we have taken precautions? Let's relax, if what I expect is good, we can all have a smooth journey, and we can even rest for a few days in Xingqing City, the capital of the Xia people. But if you all act so nervous, you won't be able to keep it. Ye Qing looked at the city of Kedun in the afterglow of the sunset, and it was still the Liao general who welcomed them into the city, still with a lukewarm expression.
"Can we get to Xingqing Mansion without any problems?" Zhong Silkworm felt that Ye Qing seemed to be joking, and he could do it along the way
I noticed that I hadn't seen a few business trips related to the Song people at all, and what I could see was none other than the business trips of Xia and Liao, which was completely different from the scene they saw along the way when they went from Xingqing Mansion to Da Liao Wangcheng.
And it is precisely because of this that Zhong Silkworm and Mo Xiaobao have to make the army vigilant at all times, that is, even the scouts along the way are full of front and back, and they are afraid that the enemy will fall from the sky when they occasionally relax.
"If you were to kill someone you knew, would you reveal your purpose before you did it, so that he would find out? Apparently not. Hot Gongji is an absolute old fox, so he won't fight uncertain battles, and he will definitely wait until I'm most relaxed to do it. There are 5,000 of us, and of course he wants to get it at the lowest cost, so before we arrive at Xingqing Mansion, we are all safe, but once we set off from Xingqing Mansion, Hot Gongji will turn into biting dogs in front of and behind us, left and right, and give us a fatal blow. Ye Qing sighed, he had thought a lot along the way, and it also made him understand that his current situation, in addition to Zhao Ruyu's reasons, also had a great relationship with himself.
In order to unite them to resist Liao, he was too dazzling in Lin'an City at that time, and Ye Qing, who was shown in the eyes of the envoys of Jin and Xia, was completely an omnipotent Ye Qing in the Song Dynasty.
Now it seems that the Xia people and the Jin people agreed to their coalition requirements at the beginning, which was more of an expedient measure, obviously they didn't think that the Song court would agree to this crazy idea, but under the circumstances at that time, they just sold themselves, an important minister of the Song court, a face.
And when Song Ting agreed, they obviously couldn't break the contract anymore, so they could only stubbornly abide by the agreement at that time, but this kind of agreement was tacit to each other, and the Xia people withdrew early from the fight against the Khorezmians, which was enough to show that they had no intention of sincerely uniting with him Ye Qing.
And the reason why the Jin people keep the contract, although Ye Qing can't guess the true or all of Yan Jing's purpose, but one thing is certain, that is, it is definitely related to the begging stone lie gods and slaves, or Wan Yan Jing hopes that the begging stone lie gods and slaves can have the opportunity to get rid of themselves, the biggest threat to the Jin country, when fighting against the Khorezmian people, of course, it is also possible that he hopes that through the battle against the Khorezmian people, the begging stone lie gods and slaves can understand him Ye Qing better, and prepare for the future battle of Jin and Song.
And even Temujin, also in this coalition army, has his ulterior secrets, his ambition has been perfected day by day, as the tribes on the steppe are gradually unified by him, Temujin needs to find himself an opponent, find a territory he will conquer to display his talent, so he will never let go of this opportunity to enter the Great Liao smoothly and examine everything in the Great Liao.
Of course, this time the coalition army, he Ye Qing also has a lot of purposes, the so-called Chinese righteousness is just a slogan, but the future is uncertain, it will also become a slogan for Temujin to unify various territories.
But in any case, Ye Qing has always ignored the power he showed when he was in Lin'an, and he has begun to make Jin and Xia feel deeply jealous, especially after the Beidi Fifth Road was recovered by him, the eyes of Jingzhao Mansion did not leave the third road of the river for a moment, and the Xia people were also fighting the idea of this territory, and the Jin people hoped to keep this territory for a long time, so at this time, they joined forces to get rid of their own threat, which seemed so justifiable.
As for Zhao Ruyu, I am afraid that he played more of a role in fueling the troubles, so that Jin and Xia had no worries to ambush themselves, and strive to make themselves never return to the Song court.
At the beginning, he didn't think deeply about this problem, but out of habitual vigilance, he asked Wu Lian to help him find a safe and secure way back to the Song Dynasty after he left Xingqing Mansion.
The rest in Kedun City finally made Ye Qing clear about the motives of Jin and Xia, as well as the attitude of Song Ting at this time, I have to say that if he were to change himself, he would also choose to join forces with the other two countries to get rid of himself at this time.
After all, each side has a good reason to want to get rid of itself: the Jin people don't need to say much, if they are alive, the Jin people can't go south again, and for them, they naturally have to get rid of them quickly. Similarly, if the Xia people are alive, it will be difficult for them to steal the Hetao Third Road under the jurisdiction of the Jin people under the nose of Jingzhaofu Road, so once they die, Jingzhaofu Road will inevitably be unable to take into account the coveting of the Hetao Third Road due to the internal disputes and turmoil in the Song Dynasty.
And the "own person" Song Ting, in addition to Li Fengniang who has always wanted to let himself die, naturally there are Zhao Ruyu, Han Cheng, and even including the Holy Emperor and the current Emperor Taishang...... I'm afraid I'd be happy to see a peaceful world, not a court that has been at war with Jin.
So Ye Qing finally smiled bitterly and summed up to himself: After so many years, the popularity is so bad, all parties want their own lives, and they are worse than Yue Fei!
