The three of them are all testing each other's bottom line, and similarly, they are also testing how many things they can meddle in in the Northland now.

Ye Qing's impermeability and fierce counterattack made Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan very clear that it was probably much more difficult than imagined to meddle in the affairs of the Northland, even if they had already made the worst plan before they came, but at this moment, sitting with Ye Qing in the confrontation of words and swords, they could still feel Ye Qing's aggressiveness and confidence in the Northland.

The two of them could have returned to Lin'an from Lanzhou Mansion and Jinan Mansion to spend the Yuan Day, and then went north to Jingzhao Mansion on the other day, but apparently with the peace talks between Ye Qing and the Jin people, they had no extra time to live a peaceful Yuan Day at home.

Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan both knew in their hearts that now was a critical moment, and if Ye Qing was given a certain amount of time to adjust, I was afraid that after they finished spending the Yuan Yuan in Lin'an, no matter what they did, it might be in vain.

Therefore, I had to skip the upcoming Yuan Ri and come to Jingzhao Mansion, just to be able to rush to Ye Qing who returned to Jingzhao Mansion after talking with Jin He, and taking advantage of the next series of appeasement actions after Xia Guo was invaded by the Northland to find an opportunity to meddle in the power of the Northland.

After staying in the officialdom for a long time, it is naturally more clear that although the three periods before, during, and after the war are the most important in wartime, they also play a pivotal role in both before and after the war.

If all kinds of materials before the war cannot be completed according to the established plan, it will naturally delay the war, and will make the war fall into a stalemate, or even be at a disadvantage, or even go to defeat.

The post-war period is also extremely important, and the results of victory must be sorted out and straightened out in the first time, so that it can be regarded as a fruitful result and the greatest victory.

The situation before, during, and after the war is also extremely complicated, and all kinds of preparations before the war require a meticulous general to plan the overall situation, and the battlefield during the war requires soldiers who have experienced a hundred battles and are brave and good at fighting to fight bloodily, and the pacification after the war is like soft power, and it is the key to testing the strength of a regime and a group.

Therefore, for Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan, before the complicated and lengthy post-war pacification began, they arrived first, believing that they would definitely be able to find a great opportunity to meddle in the affairs of the Northland in a chaotic and complicated situation.

The officials in the north are sent, appointed and dismissed, whether it is Shi Miyuan or Han Yanxuan, they all know it, over the years, Ye Qing has relied on the characteristics of a minister, doing whatever he wants in the north, and placing his henchmen everywhere, but no matter how it is placed, with the expansion of the territory and power of the north, the reserve number of officials, after the lack of the stable output of the imperial court, can not be self-sufficient in any case.

In this way, as long as the post-war pacification dispatch began to operate, then the problem of insufficient officials would also manifest itself with the deepening of the pacification dispatch, and at that time, the official secretary Shi Miyuan and the left minister Han Yanxuan would have the opportunity and excuse to meddle in the officialdom dispatch and appointment and dismissal of the northern land.

On the way back to Liu Keshi's house, Ye Qing didn't care whether Liu Keshi drank too much or not, in short, along the way, he had been analyzing with Liu Keshi, Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan came to the north, just like a weasel to give a chicken a New Year's greeting.

"Lord Ye, what Liu Minxing said is indeed a good way, but it ......." Liu Keshi looked at Ye Qing, who was looking around at the streets of Chang'an, and said with some anxiety on the side: "But in this way, the pressure on you will only get bigger and bigger, my lord." And now Han Yanxuan and Shi Miyuan are in Chang'an, this law

If you want to implement it immediately after the first day, it is obviously difficult to bypass the two of them. Of course, there is also an advantage, it is precisely because the two of them are in Chang'an, as long as you carry this matter and do not let go, then the two of them have no way to take you for a while, and they can only watch you implement the imperial examination in the north. Can...... Enke's level, I'm afraid that if adults want to pass smoothly, Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan will definitely obstruct it in every way, and they will never let you get your way easily. ”

"Yes, there are pros and cons, pros and cons, pros and cons. It is precisely because Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan are now in the Northland that the imperial examination is easy to open, but at the level of Enke, Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan will naturally not easily let go of the opportunity to obstruct. Especially when they are in the Northland, they can only watch me open the imperial examination in the Northland, but they can't openly oppose it now because of the forces in the Northland, and even if they oppose it, they know that I, Ye Qing, will not listen, so they are bound to settle accounts with me on the matter of Enke. Ye Qing looked at the brightly lit place at the door in front of him, and from time to time he could see a guard passing by in front of the door, and a white and pure delicate face instantly appeared in his mind, and then instantly changed to Ye Luyue's somewhat desolate face.

"But this method can indeed solve the urgent needs of the north in the shortest possible time. Most of the officials in the state capitals were not locals, and it was difficult for them to pacify and submit to the influential local nobles because of local customs and other rules...... Well, in fact, Xia Guan has a lot of experience in post-war pacification over the years, but ...... You also know that Xiaguan's reputation abroad is not very good now, it is because from the beginning of Shandong Road to the present, Xiaguan's methods are too tough, which has led to the fact that there are many more people who hate me Liu Keshi than those who praise me Liu Keshi. Liu Keshi said in the end, obviously he also had the intention of exculpating him in front of Ye Qing.

Of course, Liu Keshi also knows that over the years, the reason why he has been able to trust and reuse Ye Qing is precisely because he has always adhered to the four words of repetition in troubled times in the matter of pacification after the war.

So this also makes his Liu Keshi's image in front of Ye Qing completely different from his image outside.

In front of Ye Qing, he is a trusted, shrewd and capable henchman, while on the outside, he is a sinister, ruthless, and decisive cool official-like existence.

Resolute, insidious and ruthless methods, in fact, if you really want to investigate it, Liu Keshi is still influenced by Ye Qing, only focusing on the result and not paying attention to the process.

Even in Liu Keshi's opinion, in addition to giving Ye Qing a difference of 108,000 miles in leading troops to fight, he is almost in the same vein in handling local government affairs and other matters, and his style of acting is completely influenced by Ye Qing, so his reputation outside has become quite notorious.

"There has always been a ...... that it has been said that you, Liu Keshi, are Ye Qing's second person." Ye Qing walked to the front and back of his house, looked at the bright lantern, turned his head and said to Liu Keshi.

"The lower official doesn't dare, the lower official just wants to do his best to ......."

"What do you think? I don't mean anything else. On the contrary, I appreciate your decisiveness in handling government affairs, but ...... Now in the matter of pacification in the Xia realm, you can't just use tough oppressive methods like other roads in the Northland, otherwise, it will only make the minds of the people in the Xia realm become biased towards the Mongols, so you Liu Keshi have to think more about the soft strategy. There is not much time left for you, since Liu Minxing proposed the opening of the imperial examination, let him take up this assignment, as for you...... Summerland

I'll leave it to you. Ye Qing looked at the door of his house, his hands clenched back and forth nervously in his sleeves.

"By the way, in the matter of appeasing Xia Jing, you can make more use of Li An'an, the Marquis of Xia Xingqing, and under the combination of grace and power, you are a good person, and the wicked will let Li An'an be the one, so that the hearts of the people in Xia Jing can be biased towards us. As for the specific method, you think for yourself, after the first day, I will send you and the Marquis of Xingqing back to the Xia Realm to pacify and send you. Ye Qing smiled and nodded at the ecstatic Red Mansion at the door, and the Red Mansion, who was about to pounce, was slightly stunned with a fair face after seeing clearly that there were subordinates next to Ye Qing, and then turned around and ran towards the house.

"Your Excellency...... Do you also plan to send Xingqing Hou back to the summer realm? Don't let him stay in Chang'an all the time? Liu Keshi asked with some surprise.

He originally thought that now that most of the territory of the Xia Realm fell into the Northland, after the Marquis of Xingqing came to Chang'an, he would not be sent back to the Xia Realm by Ye Qing again, after all, after all, he was the emperor of the Xia Kingdom for a few days, and if he was placed in the Xia Realm, it would be more or less an unstable factor, who knows if he would not be unaware of it, and it would make a big mess after this guy took advantage of the loophole.

"He took Su Dao this time and came to Lin'an before the first day, but he just worshiped the mountain, and now his life and death are in my hands, and whether he lives or dies naturally depends on my face. So at this time when the Yuan Day is approaching, even if he has a hundred people in his heart who are unwilling to come to Chang'an, he has to come to Chang'an to visit me, otherwise he will be too long. In this way, no matter what, I can't keep him under house arrest in Chang'an, not to mention that Shi Miyuan and Han Yanxuan are also in Chang'an, and I can rest assured that I will hand him over to you to return to the summer realm together. Ye Qing said easily, but Liu Keshi's brows became more and more solemn with his words, and one shoulder seemed to have begun to tilt downward because of the invisible huge pressure.

"Your Excellency......." Liu Keshi swallowed his saliva, the matter of appeasing the dispatch was an incomparably complicated dispatch, and now if he wants to look at Li An'an, he is really afraid that he doesn't have so much energy, not to mention that Li An'an, he saw it once in Chang'an City last year, not only the people are insidious and cunning, but the city government and scheming are even more insidious, if there is such a person around him, Liu Keshi even feels that after the Yuan Ri, he will reach the summer realm, I am afraid that he will not be able to do anything, only time to watch Li An'an not come out of the moth.

"Don't worry, I won't embarrass you." Ye Qing smiled, and then patted Liu Keshi's slanted shoulder.

"My lord, Li An'an is a ...... in the city." Looking at Ye Qing, who was about to step on the steps to enter the mansion, Liu Keshi still pleaded.

Ye Qing turned his head, looked at Liu Keshi, smiled and said: "After the Yuan Day, the Xia Realm will reset the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and King Qing Yao will lead the capital to protect this mission, and you and Li Heng will serve as the deputy protector, and one army and one government will not interfere with each other." Therefore, Li An'an is sent by you, and you can give him a real errand and let him follow you to run an errand for you. ”

With Ye Qing's words, Liu Keshi's cheeks were like nightshades that began to bloom in the night, and the smile gradually bloomed on his face, and finally when the flowers were in full bloom, looking at Ye Qing who was standing with a smile on the steps, Liu Keshi hurriedly saluted: "Xiaguan Xie Lord cultivates!" The lower officials are willing to smear the liver and brain of adults ....... ”

"Okay, go back quickly, organize your thoughts these days, and give me a document to discuss first." Ye Qing turned his head and began to walk towards the mansion, while Liu Keshi behind him saluted again, and then the whole person was like a bee butterfly bathed in the spring breeze, eager to dance immediately to express the joy and excitement in his heart.
