In the last few days, they met frequently, trying their best to bargain within the scope of the big framework, hoping to maximize their interests as much as possible at the last moment after reaching the covenant, so that their temporary losses could be reduced.

Ye Qing's firm stance and greed were unexpected, whether it was Hot Gongji or Li An'an, they all knew that it was completely impossible to get out of Chang'an this time, and they were ready to be slaughtered from the beginning, but they didn't expect that Ye Qing would be so ruthless!

However, in any case, the two parties are already the best allies that each other can choose, and in the case that all the details have been fully implemented, and they are almost signed and sealed, these bargains can often only represent the unwillingness of the party whose interests are damaged.

As Ye Qing expected, Xia Guo will definitely not give himself so much silver, and he must use a part of the goods to offset the capital, Ye Qing is not surprised, and the hot Gongji is also honest, the two parties hit it off, and the value of the goods naturally rises, although it can't all be decided by Ye Qing, but it is pressed down to a two-to-three percent, and Ye Qing is still extremely tough.

Personally sent hot Gongji, Li An'an and other Xia envoys to the gate of Chang'an City, looking at the team of Xia envoys slowly leaving against the rising sun, but it gave people a feeling of twilight, completely unable to integrate with the vigorous rising sun, more like a defeated remnant of the sunset.

The departure of the envoys of the Xia State made Ye Qing breathe a sigh of relief, and asked Bai Chun to send a letter to Liu Lan'er, and then sent an attendant to Li Heng to also order that he could start to repair the six passes of Guanshan in a generous and powerful manner.

So when Hot Gongji and Li An'an came, there was no big movement in Guanlongdao, and when they passed on their return journey, the six passes showed them a thriving and hot side.

Along the way, almost all of them were Song craftsmen, "walking" side by side with them, and these craftsmen were either carrying stones on their backs and marching towards the passes, or some craftsmen who were slightly better "equipped" and could earn more wages, driving thin donkey carts, pulling a cart of stones and other things to repair the passes, and moving towards each pass.

With the temporary end of farming, there were originally only sparse donkey carts in the scenery of Guanshan, and there began to be more ox carts pulling stones, appearing in it, and even a merchant who can now go to Xia to trade normally, after entering Guanlong Road from Longcheng, will also be forced by the six passes to carry some "private goods" to transport stones and other things to the Song army to repair the pass.

The reconstruction of Chang'an City has not moved, at least when the hot Gongji is still in Chang'an, Chang'an City is still as "lifeless" as ever, so looking at the hot Gongji and Li An'an who are in full swing at the moment and vigorously repairing the scene of Guanlong Road Pass, there is no doubt that Ye Qing today has the strength and capital to build an impregnable pass.

The complex and melancholy emotions in his heart were intertwined, and the hot Gongji looked at the scenes in front of him, and began to shake Ye Qing's guess of whether he was short of money.

Li An'an believes that Ye Qing is not short of money at all, he should be short of materials.

Hot Gongji turned his head, Li An'an didn't wait for him to ask, and took the initiative to explain, whether it was Jin or Xia, if he wanted to compare with Song in terms of wealth, it would be completely self-inflicted, and Ye Qing had been an official in the Song Court for many years, and he was able to jump to his current status in a short period of time, I am afraid that his pocket would have been full of gold and silver.

And he also has a businessman's father-in-law who can be among the best in the Song Kingdom, so it is absolutely impossible for Ye Qing to be the master who is short of money.

The most important thing is that the official has done Ye Qing's part, does he still care about money? For him, money is now just one of the chips in his hand when he fights openly and secretly with others, so he doesn't care about money when he has money, what he wants is power, and the prestige that the Northland can bring him.

Hot and spicy Gongji originally

Still hesitating, combined with Li An'an's words, and then thinking about his current situation, isn't the hard work just for power and prestige?

Money? He really didn't care, but now in his position, he obviously cares more about the power in his hands, as well as the ideals and ambitions in his heart, and he also loves the pleasure of killing and winning and the sense of achievement of being admired by the world and leaving a name in history.

Although money is a good thing, it is far from being satisfying to be able to turn your hands into clouds and rain and control the people's livelihood in the world.

Therefore, power can bring the pinnacle of money, but the pinnacle of money cannot be exchanged for the life and death of power.

With Liu Keshi's return to Chang'an, the first batch of grain and grass promised by the Song court also slowly arrived in Chang'an, and these symbols mean that Ye Qing is still a minister of the Great Song Dynasty, as well as a letter of documents and wills from the ministry, the left minister, and the saint.

The ministry is naturally from the hand of Shi Miyuan, and the left minister is naturally from the hand of Han Cheng, the will of the saint, Ye Qing looked at it over and over, no matter how she looked, it was the shadow of Li Fengniang's charming style, just like Li Fengniang's delicate body with white flowers, lying naked in front of her.

The two documents are a holy decree, and there is no word of sending, but on the whole, there is a faint word of dispatch in it.

It's like it was drafted by the same person, the beginning is to congratulate Ye Qing for recovering the lost territory of the three roads for the imperial court, which is really gratifying, and the middle is naturally a praise for Ye Qing, what Ye Qing is worthy of being the pillar of the imperial court, the pillar of the frontier, etc., and at the end, it is between the lines of three words, full of inquiries about the prefects of Xiqin, Qingyuan, and Fengxiang.

No one wants to stupidly throw their henchmen to the third road of the Hetao, they also know that even if Ye Qing agrees, the dispatch of the officials of the third road of the Hetao can leave a vacancy for their own people, but they don't dare to do so, who knows that once they enter the real Ye Qing's territory, will they just arrive today, and then they will be ill the next day, and then die of an unknown serious illness?

Ye Qing never used a knife to kill people, although he carried a knife and entered the official career for Zhao Gou's murder to relieve his worries, but over the years, how many people really let Ye Qing do it himself? In other words, who else is qualified to be worthy of Ye Qing to hold the knife himself?

And those who were worthy of Ye Qing to take the knife in person back then were either Jin Ren, or powerful ministers like Tang Siwei who covered the sky with one hand, or the royal clan, King Ruxin, or even more powerful, it was Emperor Gaozong Zhao Gou.

Now that he has scanned the entire court, what can make Ye Qing personally carry the knife again, and what can be worthy of Ye Qing's doing, is that Han Cheng himself, he does not have that arrogance, thinking that he can be worthy of Ye Qing personally lifting the knife, after all, now, Ye Qing has enough qualifications to be on an equal footing with him, and there is no need to personally use the knife against himself, and his disciples and grandchildren can help Ye Qing with understanding and remove all potential threats in the north one by one.

Therefore, whether it is Shi Miyuan of the Ministry of Officials, or Han Cheng of the Left Minister, or the holy decree mixed with Li Fengniang's enchanting shadow, they all invariably discussed with Ye Qing in a literal meaning: Now that the three roads of Hetao have been recovered, presumably Lord Ye's subordinates also need a few "capable ministers to govern the world" to help him pacify and govern the people and officialdom who have returned to the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, right? So the three of them unanimously recommended Xiao Zhen, who has actually appeased Huainan East Road.

As for who will replace Xiao Zhen in charge of the overall situation of Huainan East Road after Xiao Zhen leaves Huainan East Road, the three of them have a tacit understanding and do not mention a word, after all, nominally, Ye Qing is still the pacification envoy of Huainan East Road, and Xiao Zhen is just acting as a pacification envoy in the name of deputy pacification envoy with Ye Qing's approval.

"If Xiao Zhen can come, he can really help his husband solve his worries, and his husband doesn't have to worry every day, he will bow down in person, but he can also take this opportunity to take a good rest." Red Mansion said with his chin on his chin in agreement.

Bai Chun was silent, and the three documents went back and forth I don't know how many times I read it, she

Although she couldn't guess the mystery, she knew that none of the above three people were the kind of people who sent charcoal in the snow.

"What do you think?" Bai Chun looked at Ye Qing, who was leisurely drinking tea, and asked more and more distressed in his heart.

Since Bai Chun and the Red Mansion came to Chang'an, although Ye Qing has always been calm and calm in front of them, or in front of others, even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his color remained unchanged, only she knew that the pressure on Ye Qing's shoulders at this time was heavy that even she couldn't imagine.

When he first came to Chang'an, Ye Qing's white hair was still very small, and Bai Chun could even understand it, after all, he had just passed the battle of Guanshan, so it was normal to have white hair.

But these days, although every night, she will carefully stare at the gray hair on Ye Qing's head after Ye Qing is asleep, but no matter what, sometimes some things are always so unprepared.

Especially this morning, when she helped Ye Qing wash her hair again, looking at the more and more gray hair, her whole heart was pinched fiercely in an instant, and the instant distress made her weak and her hands trembled, and she couldn't wait to hold Ye Qing in her arms and cry.

"Hard can't be changed to soft." Ye Qing smiled and sighed with a smile, as if he didn't see the distress in Bai Chun's eyes, but he grabbed Bai Chun's somewhat cold little hand, sighed and said, "Pay attention to it in the past two days, I estimate that Xiao Zhen should also write a letter." Since the court, the ministry, the left minister, and the saint all have this meaning, I believe that Xiao Zhen cannot still be kept in the dark ...... now. ”

"I wonder what you think? What are you going to do? No matter what you do, I will stand firmly by your side and accompany you forever, but ...... But I don't want to watch you suffer like this again, do you know how distressing your gray hair is? Bai Chun grabbed Ye Qing's hand and asked.

In my heart, I hated Li Fengniang more and more, when Ye Qinggang had an accident, this ruthless woman had been hiding from herself and Zhong Qing, and now seeing that her husband finally escaped, she was not honest, and she actually started to be a demon again! It simply made her unbearable, and she couldn't wait to return to Lin'an immediately and break into the palace to confront Li Fengniang.

"Do you remember the letter Zhong Qing gave you at the beginning? Yes, I also have this intention, but I don't want you to be too stressed, so I didn't say it, but now I want to say, no matter what you Ye Qing does, I Bai Chun know that everything you do is above board and upright, and even if you support King Qing, I, Bai Chun, am willing to accompany you to face the next sword and sword! Bai Chun's face, which does not eat the fireworks of the world, looks extremely serious and moving at this moment.

The Red Mansion next to him was a little dumbfounded, and he didn't react all the time, why was he okay just now, and he said it so ...... all of a sudden So...... The big rebellion?

"When Mo Xiaobao comes back, we will return to Lin'an together." Ye Qing looked at Bai Chun, who looked extremely serious, and then looked at it again, and was frightened by Bai Chun's words.

"I can't go back with you, just go back to Lin'an by yourself." Bai Chun looked at Ye Qing and was finally willing to face all the people who had been hurting people with hidden arrows behind his back, shook his head and said with a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry, Jingzhaofu Road and Hetao Road will not be ...... because of Uncle Bai and Uncle Ye." Ye Qing felt Bai Chun's hand, and gradually became a little warmer.

But Bai Chun still shook his head firmly and said: "Just in case, not to mention that King Qing is still in Jingzhao Mansion, I am a woman from a Taoist family, although I can't show my head too much in front of the public, but as long as I am here, my father and Uncle Ye may have fewer incidents." ”

"Take Jin Se over, Mo Xiaobao will stay in Chang'an, and I will take Jia Shi and the flower planting army back to Lin'an." Ye Qing's tone was undoubted this time, Bai Chun nodded meekly, and the little bird was as well-behaved as a person, judging from the fierce momentum just now.
