Separated from Lin Guangchao, he continued to walk along the bank of the Qinhuai River in the direction of Jiankang Academy, and saw an umbrella shop next to him, Ye Qing stood at the door and was stunned for a while, then turned around and walked in.

"Make a new umbrella, 10% new umbrella, do it now, I'll wait here." Ye Qing fumbled in his sleeve pocket for a long time, and finally took out a piece of fine silver, threw it to the guy and said.

The guy looked at the young man who was not angry in front of him, but vaguely, the young man with a sense of not anger and self-authority was hesitating to tell the guest about the time to make a new umbrella, when he saw the shopkeeper quickly come over.

After sending the guys away, the shopkeeper invited Ye Qing to sit down on a chair beside him.

There are not many people in the umbrella shop who buy umbrellas, and even if there are customers, most of them are women, and the purpose of buying umbrellas is not to shelter from the wind and rain, but mainly to hold an umbrella and walk on the banks of the Qinhuai River.

Ye Qing didn't know the shopkeeper in front of him, and Mo Xiaobao didn't follow, but this doesn't mean that no one knows the broken silver and the bullet he is playing with in his hand now.

The shopkeeper looked at Ye Qing, his eyes became respectful in an instant, and he was just about to get up when Ye Qing stopped him in a low voice, and then said: "Prepare pen and ink, and then send it to Lin'an for eight hundred miles urgently, and after receiving the reply, rush back overnight." ”

"Yes." The shopkeeper hurriedly got up, motioned to the man to continue greeting the guests, and then led Ye Qing to the back.

In just a quarter of an hour, Ye Qing walked out of the umbrella shop with a new umbrella, and after a while, the shopkeeper of the umbrella shop also walked out of the umbrella shop and walked in another direction.

As Ye Qing swayed to Tao Qian's mansion in Wuyi Lane alone, the porter looked at the guests who had come once, and was a little stunned for a while, not knowing whether to welcome him in or refuse politely.

Before he could speak, the guest had already dodged into the house, and motioned for him to close the door and make himself tea, as if he were in the host's house.

And just when Ye Qing entered Tao Qian's mansion in Wuyi Lane, in Jiankang's Beicheng Rouge Lane, Han Yanxuan slowly stepped out of the carriage and entered a mansion with a grand scale.

At the beginning, this area used to be the back garden of the emperor of the Southern Dynasty, with the rolling of the wheel of history, although there are no longer so many carved buildings here, but on the flat terrain with Jilong Mountain as the background, there is still no shortage of deep mansions built here since the establishment of the Great Song Dynasty, with Suzhou garden as the style.

Rouge Lane is named after the Rouge Well where the emperor of the Southern Dynasty escaped from the rebels, and now the Rouge Well no longer exists, just like the disappeared Xuanwu Lake, which has become a part of the long river of history.

The disappearance of Xuanwu Lake surprised Ye Qing, he felt like this porter was lying to him, how could Xuanwu Lake not exist?

During the reign of Shenzong, Wang Anshi served as the prefect of Jiangning, and at that time, as soon as Wang Anshi arrived, he put forward the idea of returning the lake to the field, and did not hesitate to fill the entire Xuanwu Lake for his own political achievements, so that the nightmare of Jiankang City was plagued by rain for two hundred years, until the Tatars ruled the whole of China, the Xuanwu Lake was dug out again, so that it was slightly improved.

The arrival of Han Yanxuan was like injecting a heavy haze into the sky above the entire Jiankang City officialdom, making the air in Jiankang City seem to have begun to become solemn.

With the arrival of Han Yanxuan, when the night had just shrouded the mountains and rivers and buildings of the entire Jiankang City, Zhao Ruyu also sat in an ordinary carriage that could no longer be ordinary, and slowly drove into the Rouge Alley to join Han Yanxuan.

Almost at the same time, the carriage of Zhao Xuan, the king of letters, also slowly entered the royal garden villa in Jiankang East City, which was located not far from Qingxi Bridge.

And the only remaining Jiankang West City, Shi Miyuan's carriage was an hour late, and it stopped in front of a compound in Ximingli, Jiankang West City, and with the people brought to enter the mansion first, Shi Miyuan, who was frowning, walked into the mansion together accompanied by Li Zhixiao, one of the three murderers.

King Xin lives in the east, Ye Qing enters the south, Shi Mi is far away from the west, Han Yanxuan occupies the north, there seems to be a providence in the dark, and the people who occupy the four directions can't help but look at the palace of the Six Dynasties in the dead of night: the palace of the Six Dynasties in the past, and the direction of the Jiankang School today.

"Ye Qing must be in Jiankang City." Han Yanxuan frowned, looked at the direction of Jiankang Academy, and said firmly.

Zhao Ruyu on the side looked in the same direction, glanced at Wang Gongwu, the commander of the Nankang Army next to him, and then thought: "Jiankang City is too big, it is too difficult to find someone, not to mention that this person is still the commander of the Imperial City Division, and he is a person who has always been good at concealment." ”

"It's nothing more than occupying the area of Nancheng, but trying to find him is indeed like looking for a needle in a haystack. Since Ye Qing avoided it after entering Jiankang, he must not use the eyeliner of the Imperial City Division, and he would also guess that I had arrived in Jiankang. But....... Han Yanxuan sighed, and after glancing at Wang Gongwu on the side, he lowered his head and said, "Ye Qing is not easy to deal with, if he is an enemy, he will not be able to sleep well every night." ”

"Will he stop us? In this case, his Ye Qing's hand would inevitably be stretched too long, right? Don't forget, we also received him in the Xia Kingdom at the beginning, could he really be ungrateful to ....... Zhao Ruyu always didn't want to believe that the person who talked and laughed in front of him, was quite funny, and could even be said to be familiar at first sight, would not be happy with them at this time.

Moreover, in the Yongjin Building that day, Zhao Shicheng and Zhao Kai, the king of Wei, all appeared, even if he alone could not deter Ye Qing, could it be that the king of Wei and Zhao Shicheng did not have much weight in Ye Qing's heart, and they couldn't make him hesitate and think about it?

"How can there be faith in the court? Besides, how could Ye Qing be the master? What I'm afraid of is the ...... behind him. Han Yanxuan looked at Zhao Ruyu quietly, thought for a while and continued: "In the royal battle, the Imperial City Division may not blatantly intervene, but it does not mean that the Imperial City Division will stand by and watch, if this is the case, why should the Emperor let Ye Qing come in person?" The meaning of this needs to be carefully thought out. But if you can see Ye Qing, it will naturally be better. ”

"Then do you know that a few days before coming to Jiankang, Ye Qing and Shi Miyuan also drank once in Yongjin Tower, and then the two of them fought for nearly two months before they removed the guards guarding their respective mansions, could this be a sign that they want to join forces?" Zhao Ruyu has been thinking about this matter in his heart, from Lin'an all the way to Jiankang, this matter has always been in his heart, pressing him like a mountain, and he can't wave it.

"Not only that, but even Li Mengjian, the confidant of King Xin, went to see Ye Qing immediately after the Imperial City Division arrived at the post house, but Ye Qing avoided it. Therefore, Ye Qing and Shi Miyuan went to the Golden Building, in my opinion, I am afraid that it is because of the Po Li incident, as for the rest, hehe, Ye Qing will not. Han Yanxuan said with a smile, and his eyes moved to the distant Jiankang School in the night again.

On that day, Ye Qing and Shi Miyuan came out of Yongjin Building, and the Han family also sent a carriage, but the Prince's Mansion also sent a carriage, and Ye Qing also got into the carriage of the Prince's Mansion without hesitation, although it seemed to be related to Na Po Li on the surface, but .......

"Could it be the crown prince?" Han Yanxuan suddenly turned around, his eyes were like knives, and he looked at Zhao Ruyu and said urgently.

"Huh? What would be the crown prince? Zhao Ruyu was still pondering why Ye Qing was reluctant to show up in Jiankang, and at this moment, he looked at Han Yanxuan's fierce gaze that seemed to be able to kill, and asked after a pause.

"Could it be that the prince is in charge of the Jiankang Mansion School?" Han Yanxuan repeated.

“…… This...... It's unlikely, right? Zhao Ruyu's chubby face was full of incredulity.

"What's impossible? Since you invited Zhao Shicheng and King Wei in Yongjin Tower that day, if Ye Qing was really forced by us to stand in line, would he choose another way? Even if you don't stand on you and me, or on Shi Miyuan, naturally you won't stand on the king, so only the prince can be the big tree behind him, right? Han Yanxuan's eyes were still sharp, and he said in a quick tone.

Zhao Ruyu smiled, looked at Han Yanxuan, who had a serious expression, and laughed heartily: "Haha, does the prince have a foundation?" Today's crown prince, even the prefects of various places don't take it very seriously, is Ye Qing stupid? Will he look at the prince? And how could the prince take a fancy to him? Does Ye Qing have a foundation, background, and family background? The prince doesn't have his own connections now, so what did he do with Ye Qing? Ye Qing is just a sharp blade of the royal family, which is used to eliminate dissidents, and the prince doesn't even have the least connections, what do you want Ye Qing to do with this sharp blade? Scare? Win hearts and minds? It's better to obey him with virtue, maybe he can recruit some talented courtiers under his command, at least he can leave a reputation as a corporal of courtesy, right? ”

The prince is like a sapling that is just about to grow, and Ye Qing is a rootless tree that has no roots and will dry up and die at any time.

Obviously, no one can give each other what they want, and no one can get more things from each other to achieve their own goals, so Zhao Ruyu is not optimistic about the crown prince at this time, and he can win over powerful courtiers.

Naturally, he is even less optimistic, Ye Qing will stupidly rely on a prince who has no power and no influence above the court to be the big tree behind him.

Therefore, what Ye Qing can choose, just like Long Dayuan, the commander of the Imperial City Division back then, is either to throw himself at Tang Siwei or to Wang Huai.

But now, no one can see that the left and right phases are already weak, and the position of Wei Qi's right phase is just a transitional period, and sooner or later this position will be Han Cheng's.

As for Wang Huai, the left minister, although the imperial court is not very likely to move him now, if the possibility of a war with the Jin State is smaller, and the relationship between the two countries is closer, then Wang Huai's position will be replaced by someone else sooner or later.
