With the collapse of Tang Sihui, Shi Miyuan and the Shi family became the biggest lords and factions above the court, or the backbone of the lords and factions.

And Han Yanxuan watched Ye Qing after returning from the envoys Jin and Xia, and began to methodically seek a way out for himself above the court, and began to divide the line with himself and Shi Miyuan in order to be able to live, which made Han Yanxuan have to worry about whether in the process of resisting the Northern Expedition against Jin, the Great Song Dynasty would have one less person to resist Jin.

Compared with Ye Qing's reluctance to stand in line with the Han family, Han Yanxuan showed an absolute strategic height, he was more worried, or afraid that Ye Qing would change his own ideals after he went to the Jin Kingdom, and he would change from an aspirant who hated the Jin people to a "small wealth is peace" lord and faction.

That's why he directly pointed out his worries in the conditions given to Ye Qing, that is, he was worried that Ye Qing would be like Shi Miyuan, for his own selfishness and selfish desires, and forget that he was a Song person and the integrity of the Chinese nation.

Of course, this is all based on taking a step back.

If he could win Ye Qing, it would be great, but now that he can't win it, Han Yanxuan doesn't want Ye Qing to become a stumbling block on his Northern Expedition when he becomes a fierce rival above his court.

Xin Qiji, who is a reformed person, in exchange for an anti-gold person whom he admires very much, and can completely prevent Ye Qing and Shi Miyuan from joining forces, no matter how Han Yanxuan calculates, he doesn't feel that he has suffered a loss in this transaction.

As Han Yanxuan set off to return to Lin'an on the second day, Ye Qing also began to leave Jiankang and return to Lin'an after staying for an extra hour.

Jiankang City once again resumed its usual bustle and hustle, and the conflict of that night did not leave many traces in the hearts of the people of Jiankang, or rather, after experiencing the golden soldiers and iron cavalry to the south, the people became much more tenacious in willpower than the people in other places.

But even so, in Jiankang City these days, there are still rumors about the Zhong family, and the people who don't know the truth are very willing to expand their rich imagination, standing as if they have seen it with their own eyes, painting and telling the story of the fall of the Zhong family in teahouses, wine shops, casinos, and even Qinglou.

As another day passed, the Zhong Mansion, which was lively and festive two days ago, is now full of vegetarian eyes, up and down, all revealing a down-and-out atmosphere.

A carriage slowly drove to the door of the Zhong Mansion, and there were an old man and a young man sitting on the left and right sides of the carriage, and after the carriage slowly stopped, he first looked at the plaque of the word Zhong Fu on the lintel, and then picked up the stirrups placed behind the carriage under the gaze of the rest of the Zhong family: "Miss, the Zhong Mansion has arrived." ”

With the brothers Zhong Kang and Zhong Lin killing each other that night, the current Zhong Mansion, which can call the shots, naturally falls on the head of the third child of the Zhong family.

Seeing that the old man and the young man faced the owner of the carriage who had not yet appeared, and his attitude was extremely respectful, the third child of the Zhong family was a little at a loss, and under the leadership of his subordinates, he ran out of the mourning hall quickly.

"Excuse me......." Zhong Ning, the third elder of the Zhong family, who was dressed in a vegetarian body, looked at the old man and the young man waiting for the master to get off the car and asked.

"Dare to ask, but Mr. Zhong Ning? Is this Mr. Zhong Kang's mansion? Tao Qian had never been serious, with a sad face, as if his family had died, and asked with red eyes.

"Exactly. I don't know ...... sir? Zhong Ning really can't figure out the identity of the middle-aged Confucian in front of him, it seems that he is either rich or expensive, but he is just a coachman, can he be a high-ranking guest in the car?

"Please also ask Mr. Zhong to mourn. My husband and Mr. Zhong Kang had a relationship many years ago, just arrived in Jiankang two days ago, I wanted to visit, who knows...... Mr. Zhong Kang actually ...... So the gentleman endured his grief and wanted to come over to offer his condolences. But Mr. has always been used to being alone, and he doesn't like to get along with people, so I hope that we can let our husband mourn Mr. Zhong Kang alone, how about it? Tao Qian told a lie, and in the eyes of the broad bean next to him, it was just like the real thing, and even he almost believed the nonsense that this guy made up improvised.

Looking at Tao Qian's sincere, sad and sad face, Zhong Ning was a little dazed for a while, the person in front of him looked like an elegant and elegant gentleman, but he could only be a coachman for others, could it be a ...... in this carriage Which gentleman will be famous all over the world?

But no matter what, even if Zhong Ning wanted to refuse at this time, there was no way to refuse, not to mention that people were not here to make trouble, but just to condole, and they were still risking the responsibility of being held accountable by the court to condole, if they were not allowed to enter the mansion, it was obviously unreasonable.

Today's Zhong family is not as good as it was at the beginning, it is full of friends at any time, and now the relatives who are a little farther away are afraid to avoid it, that is, even the condolences come in a hurry, and they leave in a hurry, for fear that they will be thought by the people of the government later, and they have a close relationship with the eldest and second children.

Wearing a thick black shallow dew, the whole person is wrapped from head to shoulder, and it is completely impossible to see who is coming.

He was dressed in a black fur coat that was obviously much wider than his figure, and the figure of the visitor was completely wrapped in it, so that outsiders could not tell whether this gentleman who came to the Zhongfu to mourn was a man or a woman.

And what is even more amazing next is that this gentleman, who is dressed in a black fur coat and a black light dew, wraps himself tightly, is very familiar with the Zhong Mansion.

Even if you don't need someone to lead the way, you know where to go and where to turn, especially when you enter the mourning hall, this gentleman who is wrapped tightly all over his body is the next person who leads the way first, and he actually runs directly in.

Without waiting for Zhong Ning to walk in with his subordinates, the two coachmen who followed closely followed step by step stood at the door of the mourning hall and suddenly turned around, and said to Zhong Ning, who looked puzzled: "My husband wants to mourn alone, so ...... Please wait here with Mr. Zhong. ”

After finishing speaking, regardless of whether Zhong Ning agreed or not, Broad Bean immediately took a look at the mourning hall and saw that there was no one else in the mourning hall, and then gently closed the door of the mourning hall.

And at the moment when the door closed, Zhong Ning still sneaked through Tao's side, and through the crack in the door that was about to close, he saw that the gentleman had taken off the shallow exposure, and then his hair like a waterfall was instantly scattered behind him.

"Okay, since that's ...... Since your husband wants to mourn my eldest brother and second brother alone, this is naturally my eldest brother and second brother's best friends during their lifetimes. Zhong Ning's mind has always been the appearance of the hair falling apart, and then looking at the young man who closed the door, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, the handle of the knife on his waist was exposed without a trace, and he hurriedly said.

"Thank you very much." Tao Qian saluted Zhong Ning, and then made it easy for Broad Beans to bring a chair and sit at the door of the mourning hall.

From morning to evening, Zhong Ning came over several times, but the door of the mourning hall was still tightly closed, and the two people sitting at the door even ate and drank at the door of the mourning hall.

It can be said that in addition to going to the latrine, these two people were nailed to the door of the mourning hall like stone lions at the door.

When Ye Qing and the others returned to Lin'an, there were only three days left before the Yuan Ri, so whether it was Ye Qing, Han Yanxuan, or Shi Miyuan, they all couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

In this period, the court is often when people's hearts are disheartened, even the courtiers who go to the court on time, all of them are focused on other aspects, either thinking about how to live the Yuan Day, or thinking about whether to go out to Lin'an after the next court, or about three or five confidants to drink and chat.

In short, at this time, whether it is in the court or in the palace, even the thoughts of the palace maids and eunuchs are placed in the festive and peaceful coming of the Yuan Day.

So the three people who returned to Lin'an naturally breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and secretly rejoiced, I am afraid that the current Emperor and the Holy One have no leisure to take care of themselves and others, right?

Obviously, the wish is beautiful, but the reality is cruel, whether it is Ye Qing, Shi Miyuan, or Han Yanxuan, they have completely forgotten that Zhao Gou is not only a emperor, but also a person who holds great grudges.

So the three of them who returned to their own homes had not had time to change their dusty clothes, and some eunuchs were already standing in the center of the courtyard, shouting in a sharp voice: "The emperor is invited." ”

Ye Qing, who sighed, kissed Bai Chun's red lips eagerly, until Bai Chun struggled desperately, beating Ye Qing's chest, and then Ye Daguan reluctantly walked out of the room and followed the eunuch who passed the message to the palace.

Heningmen, even if they haven't been here for many days, but some time ago, for Ye Qing and Shi Miyuan, it was completely a place where a nightmare began, and now when they saw the magnificent and majestic vermilion and Ningmen again, their ears seemed to sound again The voice of their eardrums that Zhao Gou reprimanded a few days ago hurts.

As Han Yanxuan also stepped out of the carriage, he looked at the two unlucky people standing under the root of the wall, and then consciously did not wait for his eunuch to speak, so he consciously stood next to the root of the wall and stood next to Ye Qing.

"Go ahead." Ye Qing glanced at Han Yanxuan who was a little behind.

Han Yanxuan rolled his eyelids, ignored Ye Qing's words, and said with a smile at Shi Miyuan: "Master Shi won the first place, congratulations." ”

"Do you want to change?" Shi Miyuan said coldly, his tone full of dissatisfaction and unwillingness.

He and Ye Qing had been fighting here for a long time just now, and in the end he stood in the first position, which meant that once the Emperor Taishang felt that he had had enough of the three of them under the wall, then he would have to be the first to go in and be scolded.

But Zhao Gou is an old man after all, even if he has anger and anger, after scolding the first one, and then entering the second place, the anger will not be so great, and he will be able to suffer a little less spit.

It is precisely because of the experience that he was scolded a few days ago that no one wants to stand in the first place and be the first to go in and provoke Zhao Gou.

And just when there was a sneer on the corner of Ye Qing's mouth, Shi Miyuan's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and Han Yanxuan's face was relaxed, a eunuch came out of the Ning Gate again, and said with a cold face: "The Emperor summoned ...... Han Shilang of the military department. ”

"What...... Is it? Han Yanxuan's eyes widened, and he asked unconvinced with his neck.

Ye Qing and Shi Miyuan next to them couldn't help laughing, and after looking at the cold-faced eunuch after speaking, they walked towards the Hening Gate without looking back, and then the two of them looked at Han Yanxuan's back, and gloated loudly and loudly.
