1199 The rain stopped
Because of the disadvantage in numbers, the soldiers of the flower planter army at the back gate of the Xinwang Mansion were already difficult to resist, and the rebel offensive under Shi Miyuan's heavy reward, and just when they began to have to retreat to the depths of the Xinwang Mansion, Zhong Silkworm finally led the troops to rush over and helped others block the rebel offensive in time.
In the heavy rain, he had been staring closely at the offensive more and more dominant, and when he was about to break through Ye Qing's defense line and enter the Xinwang Mansion, all of a sudden, as if he had encountered some unstoppable external force, he was forced back dozens of steps by the army of the Flower Planter in an instant, Shi Miyuan's heart began to sink continuously, and the bad premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Shi Miyuan, who had already faintly sensed the appearance of the defeated army from the retreating soldiers, was unwilling to look up at the sky, but the rain hitting his face could not remove the increasingly heavy frustration in his heart.
And when the army of black pressure also began to appear on both sides of the streets and alleys of the back door, Shi Miyuan sighed silently, and the words "the general trend has gone" unconsciously flashed in his mind.
Almost just when Shi Miyuan felt hopeless and powerless, a soldier quickly ran over, looked at Shi Miyuan with a gloomy expression, and said hurriedly: "Report to Prime Minister Zuo, the Queen Mother is now in the Xinwang Mansion ......." ”
Shi Miyuan was shocked in an instant, his eyes suddenly became a little confused and incredulous, and he looked at the soldier who was a little hairy in his heart: "How is Xia Zhen?" How is Zhao Shikui? ”
"General Xia is now ...... I don't know whether he is alive or dead, and Zhao Shikui is said to have been personally executed by the saint ....... The soldier closest to Shi Miyuan could clearly feel that when he finished his report, the originally fat and burly Shi Miyuan was like a leather ball, as if he had shrunk a lot at once.
Although Shi Miyuan's whole person was standing in front of him at this time, he didn't know why, just to give him a kind of Shi Miyuan at this time, as if he had shrunk a lot from Wei'an in an instant, even if the person in front of him had not changed in any way, but this feeling was real.
"The tide is over...... Surrender. Shi Miyuan frowned and looked at the soldiers who were still resisting in the rain, his heart was as heavy as a thousand catties of boulders pressing on his body, making his already fat body even more clumsy and incompetent at this time.
It's just that it was obviously a little late for Shi Miyuan to surrender, and the flower planting army under the leadership of Zhong Silkworm was still in the heavy rain, completely suppressing Shi Miyuan's rebels at an extremely sharp speed.
In the heavy rain, Shi Miyuan's expression was calm, looking at the messy scene in front of him and the screaming and moaning soldiers lying in the rain, at this moment Shi Miyuan's heart was surprisingly calm, he had always hated war, and even looked down on him to solve any problem by force, and for the first time felt that killing was not as cruel and ruthless as he imagined.
"The last general, Zhong Silkworm, has seen Master Shi." A sturdy body in black armor walked up to Shi Miyuan, reported to his home and saluted: "King Yan is already waiting for Lord Shi in King Xin's Mansion, Lord Shi please." ”
"Are you Zhong Silkworm? A capable general under the command of King Yan. Shi Miyuan looked at Zhong Silkworm, who was holding a Yanling knife and several soldiers standing behind him, paused and said, "Lead the way." ”
Zhong Silkworm nodded at the calm Shi Miyuan, then looked at Shi Miyuan, who was about to move forward, smiled and pointed to the carriage behind Shi Miyuan, and said, "Doesn't Lord Shi plan to invite King Shu's father and son in the carriage to see King Yan together?" ”
"King Shu's father and son?" Shi Miyuan's heart was shocked, and his originally calm expression instantly became a little frightened, and he looked at Zhong Silkworm with a smile under the helmet in disbelief, and said puzzledly: "King Shu shouldn't be ......in Shaoxing Mansion at this time. ”
And when Shi Miyuan questioned Zhong Silkworm in disbelief, in the attic of King Xin's mansion, Jia Shi was clumsily helping Ye Qing to bandage his wounds, and Zhu Ye'er was beating on the side, Xu Han, who ran in, glanced at the Queen Mother next to him and Zhao Kuo, who looked a little tired, and saluted respectfully before saying to Ye Qing: "The letter sent urgently by the prince and his wife of Xin'an County must be handed over to you immediately." ”
After being touched by Jia She's wound, Ye Qing, who gasped in pain, asked with some bared teeth, "What did you say?" ”
"Yesterday, King Shu's father and son suddenly arrived in Lin'an secretly, and they ...... early this morning. Zuo Xiang Shi Miyuan...... Lord Shi went to the Xin'an County Palace, and soon after left the Xin'an County Palace with King Shu's father and son, and now he should be with the Zuo Prime Minister Shi Miyuan Shi. The prince and his wife guessed that this matter was probably very important to you, so they have been looking for you everywhere in Lin'an City to tell you the news. Xu Han looked at Ye Qing's gasp in pain, and couldn't help but squeeze together with his facial features, as if he could feel it firsthand.
"King Shu's father and son? Shouldn't King Shu be in Shaoxing Mansion at this time? Li Fengniang frowned slightly, and looked at Ye Qing who was grinning with a hint of worry between her eyebrows and asked.
"Tap!" Ye Qing patted the armrest of the chair and said to the clumsy Jia Shi with some dissatisfaction.
Li Fengniang looked at the naked upper body, several red wounds, and finally frowned slightly, took a deep breath and said, "You guys go down first, and hand it over to the palace to help him bandage his wounds." ”
Jia Shi and Xu Han glanced at Ye Qing unconsciously, and then with an intriguing taste, they glanced at Zhao Kuo, who was sitting on the side without saying a word, and then handed over the knife creation medicine in his hand to Zhu Ye'er, and withdrew from the hall in the attic with Xu Han again.
Under Zhao Kuo's gaze, Li Fengniang walked up to Ye Qing with an extremely natural demeanor, and after taking the knife medicine from Zhu Ye'er's hand, she began to concentrate on helping Ye Qing bandage her wounds.
Even when cleaning the wound, even Zhao Kuo could feel that Li Fengniang, as the queen mother, cared very much about Ye Qing's feelings, as long as Ye Qing frowned slightly, or even took a slight breath, Li Fengniang would immediately stop the movements in her hand, looked at Ye Qing with concern and said, "It hurts you again?" ”
Facing Zhao Kuo's cannibalistic gaze at this time, Ye Qing turned his head to look at Li Fengniang, who was immersed in treating his wounds, and then said slowly: "If what I expected is good, Shi Miyuan intends to deliberately support Zhao Guicheng, the son of Zhao Shiyi, the king of Shu, as the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty after him." Although King Shu is not as good as King Qing Zhao Kai in terms of prestige over the years, he still has some prestige in the Jiangnan area. Let alone...... Since King Qing began to go north many years ago, King Shu's reputation has surpassed that of King Qing at that time in all roads south of the Yangtze River. Moreover, King Qing and I are very close, and with the relationship between King Wu and Zhao Shichun, Shi Miyuan will never secretly win them over and promise them anything. And King Shu is different, he is one of the few royal clans, he has been low-key over the years, and he obviously has no ambition for the court, so he is naturally more in line with Shi Miyuan's conditions, so if he confesses to this letter in the palace today...... Yes....... ”
When he said the last, Ye Qing could obviously feel that Li Fengniang's hands behind him unconsciously increased his strength, and said coldly: "In front of the Great Song Emperor, doesn't King Yan know what the way of a monarch and a minister is!" Such a curse on the king, but the courtiers did it? ”
Zhao Kuo watched his queen mother hurt Ye Qing, and he felt a burst of pleasure in his heart for no reason, and secretly sneered and deserved it.
"You should ask him, when you cut me with this knife, did you ever think that I was his courtier, such a despicable method, but Ming Jun did it?" Ye Qing subconsciously contracted her shoulders to avoid the heavier and heavier force in Li Fengniang's hands, but there was a bamboo leaf next to her, and after seeing Li Fengniang look at her at this time, she immediately put down the tray in her hand and straightened Ye Qing's shoulders tightly, so as to facilitate the queen mother to "bandage" her wounds.
Zhao Kuo, who originally watched his mother "avenge" herself, was still happy in her heart, but at this time, she watched Li Fengniang and Zhu Ye'er bandaging Ye Qing's wounds privately, and for some reason, he suddenly felt that there was a very harmonious relationship between his mother and King Yan, and this so-called harmony had never been seen in his mother and his father.
At this time, Li Fengniang was very glad that when she rushed to the attic by herself, there was no result that would collapse her whole world.
But when she saw Ye Qing slap Zhao Kuo down, it was like Ye Qing slapping her body, which made her feel distressed.
At this time, when looking at the long scar on Ye Qing's back that was injured by Zhao Kuo, Li Fengniang also felt as if it had been cut on her heart.
Even if she deliberately increased the strength in her hand now, when Ye Qing gasped in pain, Li Fengniang's heart was still trembling in distress.
"But is there a way to mitigate? Since there is nothing to do, you might as well let this festival pass, how about it? Li Fengniang bowed her head slightly, and carefully helped Ye Qing blow the wound on her back and said.
In Li Fengniang's opinion at this time, since it has not yet developed into an irreparable situation, she believes that there is probably no one in this world who is more qualified than herself to help resolve the discord between Ye Qing and Zhao Kuo.
And this is why she had to rush to the Xinwang Mansion today, even at the expense of her own safety, she had to force her way into the Xinwang Mansion, and she also wanted to prevent the two of them from killing each other.
Whether Zhao Kuo was injured or Ye Qing was injured, it was an unacceptable result for Li Fengniang, so she had to do her best to stop all this.
Zhao Kuo looked at the queen mother who helped Ye Qing bandage her wounds, at this time she was completely a good wife and mother, and a trace of confusion gradually rose in his heart, and even he began to be a little unclear, the queen mother rushed over today, whether it was to save himself or Ye Qing!
And Ye Qing, why is it so important to the queen mother? Why is Ye Qing in front of the queen mother, he also completely restrained his own unique domineering, just like the queen mother, in front of Ye Qing, there is no noble and dignified queen mother at all, just like a wife.
After Li Fengniang asked Ye Qing in a consultative tone, Ye Qing's gaze looked at Zhao Kuo again, and he sighed slightly and said, "Then it depends on ...... Is the Holy One willing to believe the truth? ”
Li Fengniang's hand on Ye Qing's back trembled slightly, and Ye Qing's answer was obviously a pun and something in the words: What is the truth? Which truth is it?
"What do you want?" Li Fengniang asked quietly, and then began to continue to help Ye Qing bandage the wound on her shoulder.
"If Shi Miyuan ...... Really won over King Shu's father and son, what would you do? As always, I believe in Shi Miyuan, not a minister? Ye Qing's eyes looked at Zhao Kuo and asked calmly.
Zhao Kuo, whose cheeks were red and swollen, would feel a pain in his mouth when he spoke, and when his mouth hurt, he would think of the picture of a tooth just slapped out by Ye Qing.
"If you want me to believe it, then you have to come up with real evidence." The loss of a tooth and the redness and swelling of his cheeks made Zhao Kuo speak at this time, with less anger and more inarticulate humor.
"As long as you can come up with real evidence to prove that Shi Miyuan really intends to support Zhao Guicheng, another ...... The truth is to be solved by Hongu himself. Li Fengniang lowered her head and said, halfway through speaking, she didn't forget to glance at Zhao Kuo opposite.
I didn't feel a trace of relief in my heart, things have developed to this situation, obviously some things can no longer be hidden, and even now, it has become the only way to resolve the discord between their monarchs and ministers.
So even if Li Fengniang is unwilling, it is obvious that she definitely does not want to experience the discord of monarchs and ministers like today.
Zhao Kuo was a little confused about the meaning of Li Fengniang's words, and unconsciously moved his somewhat confused gaze to Zhu Ye'er, and when Zhu Ye'er felt Zhao Kuo's gaze, he just looked back at Zhao Kuo and shook his head with a smile.
The rain outside still has no intention of abating, and there are screams from time to time in the roaring rain, but now, it is obvious that the battle of Xinwangfu is nearing the end, and the winner of Xinwangfu is obviously not Zhao Shikui, the prince of Rongguo, who has been dragged out after Zhao Kuo's execution.
Li Fengniang carefully helped Ye Qing bandage her wounds, and even helped Ye Qing tidy up her clothes in front of Zhao Kuo, and then watched Ye Qing and Zhu Ye'er walk out of the attic.
Seeing the backs of Ye Qing and Zhu Ye'er disappear at the door, and the door slowly closed again, Li Fengniang sighed silently, and then turned to look at Lao Gao, who had half of his face swollen, but his expression was Zhao Kuo, who had a lot of questions.
"Does it still hurt?" Li Fengniang sat down next to Zhao Kuo, looked at Zhao Kuo with concern and asked.
Zhao Kuo shook his head silently in the face of Li Fengniang's concern, at this moment he couldn't tell right from wrong, and he didn't even know what he wanted and what he got in today's accident.
Especially when he witnessed the seemingly ordinary interaction between the queen mother and Ye Qing, but in fact revealed a lot of news about the harmonious relationship, Zhao Kuo's heart became more and more confused and disorganized.
In his mind, when his mother Li Fengniang had just bandaged Ye Qing's wounds, her expression was gentle and her demeanor was cautious, coupled with Li Fengniang's serious expression and gaze at this moment, Zhao Kuo had an inexplicable feeling that something big was going to happen to him.
Looking at Zhao Kuo, who shook his head silently, Li Fengniang's expression was a little entangled, at this time she needed to organize her words, and most importantly, when she said it, she could make Zhao Kuo accept this fact, and she would not treat herself as a bad woman.
"Mother...... Does the queen mother have anything to tell her sons? Zhao Kuo's mind at this time was all attracted by Li Fengniang's solemnity, but as for the situation outside, he felt a little insignificant.
"You also heard it just now, Shi Miyuan has been captured, and on Shi Miyuan's carriage, he also found King Shu's father and son, so you still don't plan to trust Ye Qing?" Li Fengniang's heart was a little entangled, and she didn't know how to open that topic for a while.
Zhao Kuo frowned slightly after listening to Li Fengniang's words, and then sighed and said, "Actually...... In fact, Erchen didn't believe Ye Qing, just because he ...... Because Erchen is the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty after all, how can the so-called side of the couch allow others to snore, Ye Qing has a strong power and prestige in the north, and he has a good personal relationship with Jin and Mongolia, and even used the matter of Jin to force Erchen to give him the title of King Yan, what he has done and what he is using now makes Erchen really uncomfortable. ”
Zhao Kuo frowned, at this time, after he suffered the frustration of killing Ye Qing, he naturally wanted to find someone to confide in the bitterness in his heart, especially when this person was his mother, Zhao Kuo already felt that there was no need to hide Li Fengniang at this moment.
"The reason why Erchen did this is for the sake of my Great Song Dynasty. Although the retainer is not taboo about high merit, Ye Qing's words and deeds and behavior in the north have completely exceeded the duty of a courtier. The officials of the Northland, the ministers still need to look at his Ye Qing's face from time to time, even now, Ye Qing is willing to return the officials of the Northland to the imperial court, but these ...... The queen mother, Ye Qing is just a courtier of my Great Song Dynasty, and now it is a courtier who returns the officials from all walks of life to the court, doesn't the queen mother feel that this is ...... Isn't that reasonable? ”
"And even so, but in the north now, the sons have also tried it in private, whether it is the will of the sons or the will of the various departments of the court, even if they are in the north now, they still can't escape Ye Qing's moderation, as long as Ye Qing doesn't nod, even if the officials in the north have already received the will of the sons, they will still look at Ye Qing's face and act. If Ye Qing is happy, those officials in the north will let go of the will of the sons, and if Ye Qing is not happy, the will of the sons and sons, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, will be like a piece of waste paper in the north! The queen mother, the son is the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, how can the son of the minister tolerate others above the imperial power? ”
Zhao Kuo obviously has a lot of dissatisfaction with Ye Qing in his heart, as well as the grievances that he never told Li Fengniang, at this moment, Zhao Kuo naturally chose to confide everything in his heart to Li Fengniang, and unreservedly succeeded him, and secretly tried and confessed to the north in the past few years.
"Erchen knows that the queen mother trusts Ye Qing, no matter when, as long as the son talks about his worries about Ye Qing in front of the queen mother, the queen mother will always firmly tell Erchen: Everyone in this world can rebel, but he Ye Qing will definitely not. But every time the queen mother told her sons, she never told her sons the reasons and reasons, even if her sons wanted to trust him as the minister of the Great Song Dynasty, they couldn't have a reason to convince her sons. ”
"Since Ye Qing seized the sixteen states of Yanyun, although he has released a lot of goodwill to the imperial court, and even took the initiative to improve the unharmonious relationship with his sons, but the sons are the emperors of the Great Song Dynasty after all, and people with a discerning eye can also see that the reason why Ye Qing gave up the rule of officials in the north is that although he only controls a few important prefectures such as Taiyuan and Chang'an, who doesn't know, he Ye Qing has already regarded the sixteen states of Yanyun and other places as the territory of his surname Ye, has he ever thought that after the sixteen states of Yanyun are seized, they should also be the territory of Zhao and Song!"
Looking at Zhao Kuo, who was full of complaints and grievances, Li Fengniang sighed silently, and then asked with a pleasant face: "Kuo'er...... The queen mother asked you, Ye Qing insisted on the sixteen states of Yanyun, and even regarded this place as his rear, do you know his true intentions? ”
Zhao Kuo shook his head and smiled helplessly, looked at Li Fengniang and said sincerely: "Queen Mother, Erchen doesn't think Ye Qing's words are credible. The relationship between the Jin Kingdom and Ye Qing is very good, and the relationship between the Mongols and Ye Qing is also good, does the queen mother really believe that Ye Qing said that the Great Song Dynasty guards the frontier from foreign invasions? According to Erchen, this is just his Ye Qing's side of the story, which is not tenable at all and cannot be convincing at all. Wan Yan Jing was his student, and Temujin was his brother, but then he Ye Qing said that the town guard Yanjing would never leave, so that the Great Song Dynasty would not be disturbed by foreign races, didn't the queen mother think that Ye Qing's reason was very clumsy? ”
"Expand your ......." Li Fengniang looked at Zhao Kuo, who looked resentful, and still smiled and said: "Kuo'er, the queen mother believes that Ye Qing really wants to guard the frontier for the Great Song Dynasty...... ”
"The queen mother ......." Zhao Kuo looked at it with some helplessness, and Li Fengniang, who still believed in Ye Qing, felt powerless again.
Although the current situation in the Xinwang Mansion is extremely unfavorable for them, Ye Qing has become the biggest winner, and even ...... Now it is easy to replace the Song family, but Ye Qing not only did not plan to replace the Song family, but just saved Zhao Kuo's life regardless of his previous suspicions.
But for Zhao Kuo now, these are obviously not enough to make him believe that the reason why Ye Qing saved his life regardless of his previous suspicions is because he is loyal to the Song family and abides by his duty as a courtier.
"If he wants to replace the Song family, then is there a better chance than today? As the saying goes, Rongguo Gong Zhao Shikui, Zuo Xiang Shi Miyuan, and Shu Wang's father and son can all be used today, but has he done so? Kill you, and then blame Zhao Shikui and Shi Miyuan, just like ...... back then. Li Fengniang's phoenix eyes continued to say lightly with a hint of memory: "Just like the night of the palace change back then, the queen mother and you were ...... that year His father went to Gushan, but Emperor Xiaozong, who had lived in Gushan for a long time, returned to Lin'an Palace. ”
"Yes, the reason why Emperor Xiaozong, who has lived in Gushan for many years, left Gushan and returned to Lin'an is to kill Ye Qing, who is becoming more and more powerful in the north, for the Song family, and he is afraid that after Ye Qing is full-fledged in the north, he will pose a greater threat to the Song family, and even replace the Song family one day." Li Fengniang glanced at Zhao Kuo, who was a little surprised, and then continued: "At that time, the queen mother was also entangled, whether to watch Emperor Xiaozong get rid of Ye Qing, and the queen mother did nothing in Gushan. But the queen mother was shaken at the last moment, and finally let your Aunt Zhu Ye'er quietly return to the Lin'an Palace that night to help Ye Qing. ”
"So...... Isn't it the night of the palace change that year, Ye Qing is actually the real traitor, not Han Yanxuan who was killed by Ye Qing? What Zhao Shikui said is true? Zhao Kuo stood up unconsciously, and looked at Li Fengniang, who had a calm face and even a smile on the corner of his mouth, with some incredulity.
"When Ye Qing was ambushed in Guanshan, the Xia people and the Jin people joined forces to get rid of Ye Qing under the acquiescence of Emperor Xiaozong to the plan of Zhao Ruyu of the clan. But in the end, Ye Qing only relied on the five thousand kinds of flower family army in his hands, and he still escaped from the death situation set up by Jin and Xia together. Subsequently, not only did he lose the Xia Kingdom, but also ...... You have also seen that the Jin Kingdom has been driven out of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun by Ye Qing, but what about the real mastermind Song Ting? is still intact, even on the night of the palace change, Ye Qing already had the opportunity to replace the Song family, but Ye Qing did not do so, do you know why? Whenever she talks about or thinks about how Ye Qing has come to where she is today step by step over the years, Li Fengniang will have a strong sense of melancholy in her heart.
"I ......." Zhao Kuo was a little dazed in his heart, he didn't know why the queen mother would talk about this, and looking at the queen mother's appearance, there was clearly a sense of honor.
Although the Song family is unkind, Ye Qing is loyal. I know that there are many rumors about Ye Qing in Lin'an City, but ...... Kuo'er, the fact is that if Ye Qing really died in Guanshan or on the night of the palace change, would the Song Dynasty still have the powerful scene of today's prosperity? Can the Jin people turn around and bow down to the Song court? The Xia people, the Jin people, and even the Mongols, aren't they still the bitter masters of the Song court? Ye Qing is dead, who will fight against Jin? Ye Qing is dead, who will stop Xia? If Ye Qing is dead, who will guard the frontier for you? Li Fengniang's eyes were a little sparkling at this time, and the whole person even looked a little sad.
Ignoring Zhao Kuo, who was a little dazed next to him, as if he was caught in a memory, he continued to say lightly: "Actually, the queen mother also wants to know what Ye Qing is doing this for!" Is it really just for the righteousness of his Chinese nation, or is it ....... Li Fengniang turned her head to look at the dazed Zhao Kuo with some sadness: "It's still for our mother and son!" ”
"The queen mother ......." Zhao Kuo's heart was shocked, and Li Fengniang's last sentence was like a sudden thunder in the sky outside, making it difficult for Zhao Kuo to accept all the meanings behind this sentence for a while!
"The Heavenly ...... of the Song Dynasty Maybe it's time for a change, a change. Li Fengniang also subconsciously looked out the window, and at some point, the rolling thunder rumbled in the sky outside.
The rain outside became heavier and louder with the rumbling thunder, and the hall in the attic continued to be depressed by the thick dark clouds outside, which made the light become darker and darker, and a lightning bolt pierced the dark night sky at this time, causing the dim hall to suddenly brighten, and then fall into darkness again.
"The reason why Ye Qing has lived in the north for a long time all the year round and rarely returns to Lin'an has made the entire court full of distrust and strong hostility towards Ye Qing. Expand the ....... Li Fengniang looked at Zhao Kuo, who looked a little sluggish, and continued to say slowly: "These are not deliberate by Ye Qing, but...... But the queen mother did not allow him to live in Lin'an for a long time! ”
"Huh?" Zhao Kuo exclaimed, but the increasingly dense lightning and thunder outside the attic completely covered up Zhao Kuo's voice: "Why is this?" ”
"Because...... Because Kuo'er has grown up, and she is getting more and more ...... with Ye Qing. Li Fengniang's voice was not loud, but now with the sound of lightning and thunder outside, even if Zhao Kuo pricked up his ears and listened carefully, there was no way to listen to all Li Fengniang's words into his ears.
"Queen Mother, what did you just say?" Zhao Kuo asked Li Fengniang with a slight probe.
Li Fengniang looked at the darker and darker sky outside with some distraction, and from time to time she could see a bright lightning streak across the dim night, and then illuminate everything outside for a short time, including the storm.
And when Li Fengniang and Zhao Kuo were talking about those unknown old things in the attic, on the other side at this time, Shi Miyuan, Shu Wang Zhao Shiyi, Zhao Guicheng and his son, and Ye Qing were sitting in the hall separated by a wall from the attic in a harmonious atmosphere.
"Shi Xiang can be said to have exhausted the organs, King Shu, you and I have never met, and when I see it today, it is really extraordinary." After finishing speaking, Ye Qing motioned to Zhong Silkworm to bring in Xia Zhen after he had woken up.
Shi Miyuan's expression at this time was quite calm, while King Shu's father and son were restless at this time, as long as the sound of lightning and thunder was thought of outside, King Shu's father and son would immediately exclaim nervously, and then looked at Ye Qing who was talking and laughing in the hall with a nervous expression, as if they were waiting for the verdict to be announced.
"King Yan is a good means." Shi Miyuan calmly put down the teacup, and then sighed slightly and said, "The prince who is a prince is the loser." But if King Yan wanted to slander Shi, Shi would never be arrested. ”
"Oh? I don't know what the slander means? Why does this king slander you? Ye Qing asked with a smile while holding the teacup.
Shi Miyuan will not be arrested, this is something he has long expected, not to mention that Shi Miyuan is from Wenchen, and he has been working in the court for so many years, it is impossible not to leave a back hand in today's affairs, and even if he has no back hand, he must definitely have a plan to protect himself, and this is why Ye Qing had to let Qingwang Zhao Kai go north immediately a few days ago.
Since he has grasped Shi Miyuan's handle, it is natural to firmly put Shi Miyuan to death and never give him any chance to turn over.
Shi Miyuan's chubby face looked at Ye Qing and smiled slightly, and then glanced at the nervous King Shu father and son next to him, and said slowly: "Shi Mou came here today because he received news that Zhao Shikui, the Duke of Rongguo, wanted to rebel against the palace, so he led his troops to come here to rescue him." As for what King Yan said, Shi Mou brought King Shu here today to rebel and make trouble after Rongguo Gong Zhao Shikui, which ...... Naturally, it is slander. ”
"Zhao Shikui was personally executed by the Holy Lord, so what does Zuo Xiang say now, Zhao Shikui has no way to come back to life again, saying that you Shi Miyuan is talking nonsense?" Ye Qing also said calmly.
"Shi Mou has always known that King Yan has all the means and is good at fabricating crimes, and maybe there is really a way to bring Zhao Shikui back to life? But even if Zhao Shikui survives, what can it mean? If you want to add to the crime, how can Shi believe it, could this be that King Yan and Rong Guogong teamed up to slander me? Shi Miyuan said with a smile.
Since the loss of the back door of the Xinwang Mansion, Shi Miyuan has indeed fallen into a huge sense of frustration in an instant. But when he personally confirmed that Zhao Shikui, the Duke of Rongguo, was dead, Shi Miyuan had already thought of the strategy of how to transfer all this to Zhao Shikui.
After all, no matter what, what he said now that Zhao Shikui would not refute, and Ye Qing wanted to rely on himself to lead his troops to appear at the back door of King Xin's Mansion to confirm his crime of rebellion and rebellion, which was obviously empty joy.
Moreover, Shi Miyuan believed that as long as he saw the Holy Lord Zhao Kuo for a while, and once again explained the reason why he appeared in front of Zhao Kuo, he believed that judging from the unharmonious relationship between Ye Qing and Zhao Kuo, the possibility of Zhao Kuo believing him was definitely greater than the possibility of believing in Ye Qing!
Therefore, although the current situation is very unfavorable to him Shi Miyuan, it does not mean that he Shi Miyuan will be defeated after Zhao Shikui's death.
Of course, in Shi Miyuan's view, the biggest crisis in front of him may not be in Ye Qing's correction of him, but in the body of King Shu's father and son.
After all, although he didn't say everything explicitly, his meaning was already clear and clear in the eyes of King Shu's father and son, that is, he would support Zhao Guicheng as the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.
And when Xia Zhen was pushed into the hall by Zhong Silkworm and the others with a panicked expression, Shi Miyuan's expression was no longer as relaxed as just now, and after frowning slightly, he looked at Ye Qing quietly and said, "What does King Yan mean by this?" ”
"Does the left minister know this person?" Ye Qing asked with a teacup to his lips.
"What about knowing, and what about not knowing?" Shi Miyuan's gaze turned to Xia Zhen, who was tied up by five flowers and looked embarrassed, and replied lightly.
"Actually, ......." Ye Qing slowly put down the teacup, and then said with a smile: "Actually, it doesn't matter if Zuo Xiang knows him or not, with the temper of this king, anyone who dares to hurt this king, this king will never be polite, and he will definitely cut off his head immediately." But...... This king just counted, this king fought today, and there were seven or eight scars on his body, which made this king very angry...... ”
"Since King Yan is very angry, he should immediately pull it out and cut it." Shi Miyuan interrupted Ye Qing's words, looked back at Ye Qing with a sneer, and said, "But now that King Yan has brought this person here, is it possible that there are other intentions?" ”
"It's worthy of the left minister, the little little thought that this king wants to take revenge can't hide from the left minister." Ye Qing smiled, then slowly got up and walked to Xia Zhen, pinched Xia Zhen's chin with one hand to make him look up and look at him, and patted Xia Zhen's cheek with the other hand, and said lightly: "Ye Mou has always been a retribution, for so many years, whether it is above the court or a person of a different race, but anyone who hurts me will end up miserable!" Xia Guo once ambushed me in Guanshan, but unfortunately it was unsuccessful in the end, so this king simply destroyed Xia Guo in retaliation. Jin Guo also participated in the ambush of me back then, so he ...... This king seized all the lost territories of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and my Great Song Dynasty, and by the way, drove the Jin people out of the pass, far away from the Central Plains. Zhao Ruyu of the clan was the mastermind behind the ambush of the king by the Jin State and the Xia State back then, and Ye Mou also did not let him go, but in the end, for the sake of his face as a clan, he was open to his wife and children. Whereas...... Xia Zhen, do you have anything that can make this king jealous? ”
Ye Qing walked back to his seat and sat down slowly, looked at Xia Zhen with a cloudy expression, and continued: "If there is nothing, then Ye has no way to open up to your wife and children at home. If I remember correctly, General Xia's youngest son seems to be only three years old this year, and the rest of the wives and concubines are as many as seven people, and the good land is ....... ”
"Ye Qing, don't you think that with your status as the King of Yan, threatening a nobody like this will seem to be a loss of identity?" Shi Miyuan stroked his fat belly with one hand, glanced at Xia Zhen, who was a little panicked at the beginning, with a slightly gloomy expression, and then said as if he was angry with Ye Qing: "If you are the King of Yan, you are so threatening to blackmail a nobody, then you will have to challenge the prestige of King Yan with your own strength." This general can rest assured, as long as I am far away, I will ensure the safety and security of your family, and even the glory and wealth in the future! ”
"So, Shi Xiang is planning to shield him?" Ye Qing asked with a smile.
Although Shi did not know the ins and outs of what happened today, and he did not know what crime the general in front of him had committed, whether it was a rebel who was co-opted by the traitorous party Zhao Shikui, but ...... Even if he is guilty, King Yan can dispose of him alone, so why should he implicate his family? The reason why Shi spoke up and helped was just ...... I can't get used to seeing King Yan acting so domineering and ruthless. Shi Miyuan's words were extraordinary, obviously not missing any opportunity to pass on information to Xia Zhen.
And Xia Zhen faced Shi Miyuan's conclusive words, and the panicked expression when he was threatened by Ye Qing just now gradually regained his calm.
Shi Miyuan had a hint of provocation at the corner of his mouth, and glanced at the outside where the lightning and thunder had ceased to roar for some time, although the storm had gradually stopped at this time, the drizzle was still crackling.
At this moment, the door of the hall was suddenly slowly pushed open, and Zhu Ye'er stood quietly at the door of the hall, and after her eyes swept over Ye Qing and the others, she said lightly: "There is a decree in the saint...... Please King Shu immediately enter the palace ....... ”
"It's ......." King Shu's father and son stood up in an instant, looking at Shi Miyuan a little helplessly, obviously hoping that at this time, Shi Miyuan could help him get an idea.
And when Shi Miyuan heard Zhu Ye'er talk about the holy decree, the hand holding the armrest of the chair couldn't help but tighten, and then after hearing the invitation to King Shu to enter the palace immediately, Shi Miyuan instantly felt panicked, and almost got up at the same time as King Shu's father and son.
However, compared to King Shu's father and son looking at him for help, Shi Miyuan looked at Zhu Ye'er in disbelief and asked, "Dare to ask where the saint is now, please ...... if you have something important." ”
"The Holy Lord has already accompanied the Queen Mother back to the palace......." Zhu Ye'er glanced at Ye Qing, who was sitting on the chair, and replied after a pause.
However, this time he still hadn't finished speaking, but he was eagerly interrupted by Shi Miyuan and asked again: "Can ...... The Holy One has a will, but what should be done about today's affairs? And who will deal with it? ”
"Shi Xiang doesn't have to worry about it, the Holy Lord has ordered King Yan to take full control of everything that happened in King Xin's Mansion today, including the rebels here and everyone's ......." Zhu Ye'er took a deep breath and said.
Shi Miyuan looked at Ye Qing next to him in disbelief, and after Ye Qing heard Zhu Ye'er's words, the smile on his face instantly became brighter and brighter.
"Today, King Shu's father and son were invited by Shi to come to the rescue, so you might as well be accompanied by Shi to escort King Shu's father and son into the palace ......." Shi Miyuan's thoughts were racing, while speculating about why Zhao Kuo would return to the palace without a sound and leave the matter here to Ye Qing to deal with, on the other hand, he hoped to be able to see Zhao Kuo before Ye Qing, so as not to let Ye Qing take the lead and deduct all the charges on his head.
Of course, Shi Miyuan wants to accompany King Shu and his son into the palace, and he is naturally very curious, Zhao Kuo summoned King Shu and his son into the palace at this time, what is his purpose, and now at this critical moment, he naturally does not worry about letting King Shu and his son enter the palace alone, after all, once he leaks his mouth in front of Zhao Kuo, or is noticed by Zhao Kuo, then he Shi Miyuan is really going to be irreversible.
It's just that before he finished speaking, he was lightly interrupted by Zhu Ye'er, and his tone even said with a hint of harshness: "Shi Xiang still thinks about how to explain all this that happened today to the Holy Lord." ”
"What does Miss Ye'er mean by this?" Shi Miyuan looked at the unconcealed disdain at the corner of Zhu Ye'er's mouth, and a sense of uneasiness for no reason became stronger and stronger at this time.
And Zhu Ye'er didn't pay attention to Shi Miyuan at all, but turned his head to look at Ye Qing and said: "The Holy Lord ordered you to temporarily put Shi Miyuan in the prison of Dali Temple to be strictly guarded, but you must not hurt his life, and the Holy Lord will personally interrogate Shi Miyuan in the future." ”
"Commandment." Ye Qing hurriedly got up and said.
Shi Miyuan sat back on the chair, and subconsciously opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only watch Zhu Ye'er turn around and leave the hall door without hesitation after finishing speaking.
At this time, almost everyone noticed that the original scene of heavy rain, lightning and thunder behind Zhu Ye'er had disappeared unconsciously.
Instead, the whole sky gradually brightened, and even, faintly, it was possible to see a ray of golden sunlight slanting into the hall after the fresh rain.
