Chapter 214 Invitation

"Allure has seen Sister Bai." Yan Chengcheng finally took the lead in saluting Bai Chun.

After walking from the middle courtyard to the back garden of the main courtyard and sitting down, a maid immediately placed all kinds of fruits, snacks, tea and other things on the table.

Looking at Yan Qingcheng's gaze, he had been looking at his cheeks intentionally or unintentionally, Bai Chun shook his head with a smile and said comfortingly: "It's been out of the way for a long time, how many days have passed." ”

Yan Tingcheng nodded silently, and after taking the initiative to pour Bai Chun a cup of tea, he sighed and said, "I just came back yesterday, and I only heard my father talk about it today, so I asked me to come over early in the morning to see Sister Bai." But Sister Bai doesn't have to worry, although this matter has spread to the palace, it ...... It is said that the queen didn't like the prospective princess very much, so she suppressed the matter. ”

"What am I afraid of now? I'm just worried about causing trouble to Ye Qing, if I hurt him because of me, my sins will be a little worse. Bai Chun looked at Yan Qingcheng and said with a smile.

Yan Tingcheng was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to comfort Bai Chun, as early as when he was in Sizhou, when he was angry, he heard Ye Qing say that between Bai Chun and his brother Ye Hong, it was only because of Tang Hexi that he had to use Ye Hong's brother to prevaricate the Tang family.

After Ye Hong died in the battle of Jiankang, Bai Chun always thought that it was her marriage with Ye Hong that caused Ye Hong to die in battle.

Now, if Ye Qing is also implicated because of Bai Chun again, presumably Bai Chun's heart will naturally be even more bitter.

"By the way, why don't I tell you about going north?" Yan Qingcheng's eyes lit up, and he couldn't find suitable words to comfort Bai Chun for a while, so he had to divert Bai Chun's attention and say.

Bai Chun raised his head rarely, a glimmer of brilliance flashed in his eyes, and then nodded silently, looking at Yan Qingcheng's back, a fledgling little black bird, flapping its wings and flying up twice for a while, and walking quickly on the ground for a while.

"...... this?"

Yan Tingcheng looked behind him along Bai Chun's line of sight, and saw a cute little black bird, not afraid of her feet, fluttering his wings to fly on the table, so he looked up at Bai Chun, who showed a trace of tenderness in his eyes, and asked.

"Before he moved here, he picked up a bird's egg in the old house, and he and Jin Se were busy building a nest, not wanting to be just when he was about to go north, he really hatched this little guy." Bai Chun said, leaning down and stretching out her fingers, and the little bird grabbed her fingers tightly and was placed on the table by her.

Yan Tingcheng's eyes lit up, looking at the little bird with black feathers, which was put on the table by Bai Chun, and went straight to the grape, and said in surprise: "This little guy wants to eat grapes, does it have a name?" ”

"It's ......." Bai Chun's face froze, and he was a little unnaturally unsure of how to answer.

At the beginning, Ye Qing and Jin Se muttered a few sentences, and they didn't ask their own opinions at all, so they took it upon themselves to name this little guy Ye Xiaobai, using the surnames of Ye Qing and himself.

Now that he saw Yan Tingcheng asking, Bai Chun didn't know how to tell Yan Tingcheng this somewhat ambiguous name for a while.

Looking at Bai Chun's embarrassed and speechless appearance, Yan Qingcheng, who is also ice and snow smart, has roughly guessed that the name of this cute little bird may not be able to get rid of the two of them, right?

After recording this account to someone who was still far away in Yangzhou, she began to tease the crow who was not afraid of people, and at the same time told Bai Chun about the few things she knew about Ye Qing when she went north.

Naturally, in order to retaliate against Bai Chun, she didn't tell her the name of the little bird, and Miss Yan Qingcheng would also tell Bai Chun some of the ambiguous things with Ye Qing at that time, lightly, naturally, and inadvertently.

When Yangzhou City disappeared from everyone's sight for almost ten days, Ye Qing finally showed up again, but this time it was not that he deliberately wanted to show up, but he had to accompany Yu Yunwen to the mansion of Zhao Shichun, the son of King Xin, Chongguo.

After being pulled into the carriage by Yu Yunwen, Yu Yunwen also handed his cushion to Ye Qing, so that Ye Qing could rely on it more comfortably: "Put it on, the two cushions are together, and they are softer, how is it on your back now?" ”

"Occasionally, I can sleep on my side, but if I sleep on my back, it still hurts a little." Ye Qing was not polite, leaned forward, asked Yu Yunwen to cushion the cushion behind him, leaned back comfortably and asked, "This Chongguo Gong Zhao Shichun won't have anything to do with Zhao Shixiong, right?" ”

"It doesn't matter, it's just that his surname is Zhao, and there is a teacher in his name, when he was appointed as the prefect and pacification envoy of Huainan East Road, another meaning of the imperial court is to treat him as a royal clansman, understand?" Yu Yunwen smiled and said against the hard carriage board.

"Royal grace, the imperial court means that your name Zhao Shixiong is close to the royal family, so if you go to Yangzhou to govern the office, you will be treated as your own person?" Ye Qing looked at the tall and elegant Yu Yunwen and asked.

"Yes, that's what it means, so later, as if to make the fake come true, Chongguo Gong, the eldest son of King Xin, was appointed as the defense envoy of Yangzhou, with no real power in name, and still took Zhao Shixiong as the pacification envoy and prefect of Huainan East Road." Yu Yunwen continued.

In this way, it is equivalent to making Zhao Shixiong a royal relative, although the court and the royal family will not recognize and will not deny, but with the arrival of Chongguo Duke Zhao Shichun in Yangzhou, this is also a kind of royal recognition of his glory for Zhao Shixiong. So what's going on today? Why do you want us to go to Chongguo Mansion together? ”

"That's why I pulled you to go with me, just because I can't figure out what Chongguo Gong means, please take the pulse. By the way, Chongguo Gong is not unwilling to set up a banquet as soon as you and I enter Yangzhou, but the law of the imperial court is located, and the royal family is not allowed to make friends with courtiers at will and privately. Yu Yunwen finally added.

"In this way, then this Chongguo Gong can't be in Yangzhou all the year round?" Ye Qing always felt that something was wrong, why didn't he choose it early or late At this time, he had just quietly transferred the military judgment to Yangzhou, why did this Chongguo Gong set up a banquet?

"Of course, it is impossible to live in Yangzhou all the year round, my Great Song Dynasty royal family has withered after the southern crossing, basically living in Lin'an, this appointment and dismissal is just a title, how can it be taken seriously?" Yu Yunwen said with a relaxed smile.

Ye Qing looked at the relaxed Yu Yunwen, suddenly reached out and knocked on the door of the carriage, looked at the Splash Li San on the wheel, and when he opened the curtain on the door and looked inside, Ye Qing said in a solemn voice: "Gather all the people of the Imperial City Division, lurk near the Chongguo Mansion, and listen to orders." Tell the military judge to go to the outside of the city immediately to Yinshan, no matter what, to prevent the Five Rivers Army from entering the city, if necessary, you can kill it first, and I will bear all the consequences. ”

"Yes, Dutou, let's do it, be careful yourself." Po Li nodded three times and said.

"What do you mean by that?" Yu Yunwen frowned, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart.

"I'm afraid of Zhao Shixiong, if Zhao Shichun's banquet today is a Hongmen banquet, or if he has some secret decree on his body, we can't do it if we don't prepare, my injuries are almost healed, Zhao Shixiong's son and daughter's injuries are lighter than mine, and they are obviously almost better."

"Are you worried that they will make trouble in the Guogong Mansion today?" Yu Yunwen was startled and almost sat up.

"What do you think would happen if I told you that last night, Yangzhou City secretly packed two thousand people from the Five Rivers Army?" The smile on the corner of Ye Qing's mouth gradually turned cold, and then continued: "I have been a shrinking turtle these days, just to create a false impression that I am afraid of being assassinated, so that the hidden things of the Imperial City Division can be carried out smoothly, and it will not be discovered by Zhao Shixiong that the Imperial City Division has nearly a thousand people lurking in Yangzhou." ”

"Now I have met with Li Xizhi, Liuwuyan and others, and they have temporarily let go of their vigilance with each other, and for the three vacancies of the pacification envoy, the prefect, and the governor, I will not compete for the time being, and have reached an agreement to let Zhao Shixiong be removed and then discussed, so that Zhao Shixiong has always known what I am doing every day and who I have met with?" Yu Yunwen combed his line and said.

Then he suddenly looked up at Ye Qing, and said in an unkind tone: "Since you kid was stabbed that night, you have completely hidden yourself in the dark, and then let me attract Zhao Shixiong's attention ...... on the surface." ”

"Nonsense, I'm injured and have difficulty moving, does Zhao Shixiong still doubt that I can still be alive and flaunting everywhere? Naturally, they will focus on you...... ”

"In this way, you will have the opportunity to secretly do the things of your Imperial City Division, and then refine those evidences and hand them over to me again, Li Xizhi, who originally intended to appease the envoy, also had to put aside his prejudices and cooperate with me for the time being, thinking about bringing down Zhao Shixiong first?" Yu Yunwen felt that he was being used by Ye Qing, and said with an extremely ugly face.

"But what I'm afraid of is that if we meet Zhao Shixiong's sword soldiers today, Li Xizhi will not have a yellow finch behind, so Li Xizhi still has to be guarded, otherwise, you may not be able to sit in the position of the pacification envoy at that time, although you are only the best candidate for transitional pacification." Ye Qing knocked on the window with one hand, and the intricate network of relationships was difficult to sort out for a while.

But he believes that Li Xizhi will never stop there, when he just arrived in Sizhou, Li Xizhi was in Sizhou, and as soon as he left Sizhou on the front foot, Li Xizhi also followed him to Yangzhou.

And what's even more strange is that Luo Shichuan was permanently left in Sizhou by himself, and it stands to reason that Li Yuan, who came with Luo Shichuan, should report to the official when he can't find Luo Shichuan, but above the Sizhou officialdom, there is no document for Li Yuan to report to the official.

Moreover, Li Yuan, Li Xizhi, and Li Ji, a Xia man, in the opinion of the military judge, there is definitely a close connection between them, combined with the analysis of the documents retrieved from under the pillow like a cornucopia of pottery knives, Li Xizhi is a person from the Pu family and the Shi family, but secretly carries them behind their backs, and he makes money by himself.

And his method of making money is to enter from Li Ji, a Xia man, and then go out through Li Yuan's hands, one in and one out, which is equivalent to money laundering, and a part of the profits that were originally going to be handed over to the Shi family or the Pu family of the city boss were washed into his own pocket.
