1217 Convention

Zhao Kuo and Ye Qing left Cining Hall together, and Li Fengniang behind him looked at the backs of the two people, and was both happy and slightly jealous in her heart for a while.

Ye Qing's personality charm and the prestige he has accumulated in the Northland over the years are extremely attractive and tempting to Zhao Kuo. What's more, over the years, because she Li Fengniang has deliberately alienated the so-called father-son relationship between Zhao Kuo and the Emperor Zhao Dan, the relationship between Zhao Kuo and Zhao Dian has not been so cordial since childhood.

After being confident in the matter of the palace, although some things have not yet been revealed to the world, Zhao Kuo has obviously clearly known the matter between Ye Qing and Li Fengniang back then, coupled with the lack of close interaction with the Emperor Taishang since childhood, and Ye Qing's immortal achievements for the imperial court over the years are enough to make Zhao Kuo yearn for it, and now the relationship between Zhao Kuo and Ye Qing, Zhao Kuo, who has lacked fatherly love since he was a child, seems to be so natural for Ye Qing's changes.

Li Fengniang was very happy to see Ye Qing and Zhao Kuo living in harmony, but Zhao Kuo's respect and trust in Ye Qing made Li Fengniang, as the queen mother, still feel relieved at this time, and at the same time, there was a feeling that her son was about to be abducted.

Walking out of the Cining Palace, the two walked on the quiet path of the palace, and unconsciously, the two of them actually walked in the direction of Dianjiangtai.

Along the way, it was basically Ye Qing who said and Zhao Kuo listened, and what he said was nothing more than some things that should be paid attention to when going south to conquer Ziqi and Luodian, Mo Xiaobao, Zhong Silkworm, including Yu Yunwen, are all experienced in a hundred battles, brave and strategic, plus the army led by Li Yu and Cao Beihai, the two commanders who have already been secretly sent by Ye Qing to Guangnan West Road, for Zhao Kuo, there is no reason to lose the war when he goes south.

And the biggest instability is naturally whether Zhao Kuo can calm down, whether he will always be able to let Mo Xiaobao and a few people personally lead the army to fight in the process of the next southern expedition, and whether he, as a king, can do it...... For Mo Xiaobao and the others, they have complete trust.

Maybe when Li Fengniang told Zhao Kuo, Zhao Kuo might have already become impatient, but because Ye Qing was warning him about some precautions, coupled with Ye Qing's prestige in the southern and northern wars over the years, Zhao Kuo listened very seriously at the moment, and even nodded again and again, reassuring Ye Qing that he would lead his troops south this time, and would never interfere in Mo Xiaobao's march and battle, everything was based on their proposals, and it was enough for him to be the last person to give orders.

"But if King Yan keeps them all by my side, you ...... if you go north." Zhao Kuang said worriedly for Ye Qing.

"Shen Qi, the Guards Division, is the commander of the Guards Division that you personally selected, so now that Jia She's staying in the palace, it is redundant. Jia She, I will take it north, and the rest of the flower planting army will follow you south. Ye Qing named and wanted to take Jia She, but Zhao Kuo had no objection.

It's just that he didn't know that Ye Qing took away Jia Shi not because he needed Jia She, but because Jia Shi had already had a son born and named him Jia Yidao.

Therefore, no matter whether the wheel of history will return to its original trajectory, or whether everything will already follow the road of the Qiang Song Dynasty, Ye Qing will not let Jia Shi get too close to the royal family, so as not to let Jia Yidao, who was just born, have a predetermined historical destiny.

The three words of scarlet Dianjiangtai are no different from when Ye Qing first met, but now that he looks at these three words, everything has changed drastically.

Ye Qing stroked the three big characters of Dianjiangtai with some emotion, thinking that back then, it was here that he officially met Zhao Gou for the first time, and then he began to entangle with the royal family from then on.

"Lin'an is here after all, can Jiankang and Kaifeng be reset to Kyoto after my southern expedition?" Zhao Kuo looked at Ye Qing, who was a little melancholy with a look on his face, and asked, at this time, he trusted and relied on Ye Qing unconditionally, after all, since he was a child, he had never respected a person so much, except for Li Fengniang, no one was as concerned about him as Ye Qing.

Especially the scene of Ye Qing rushing to the attic alone when he believed in the Wang's Mansion, it still appears in Zhao Kuo's mind from time to time, making him think of it every time

, for no reason, I can feel a sense of peace of mind.

And since he decided to go south in person, Ye Qing's support for him can be said to have moved Zhao Kuo even more, what the Flower Planting Army meant to Ye Qing, maybe he didn't know it before, but when he learned from Jia She, the important role of the Flower Planting Army for Ye Qing's Northern Expedition, and when Li Fengniang told him how the Flower Planting Army had followed Ye Qing through one difficulty after another over the years, Zhao Kuo was deeply moved by Ye Qing's generous transfer of the Flower Planting Army to him.

So now, Zhao Kuo's trust and dependence on Ye Qing has even surpassed his dependence on Li Fengniang in a short period of time, and Lin'an, as the Great Song Dynasty, is not an orthodox capital.

Kaifeng was once suggested by Ye Qing to be reset to stay in the capital, and Lin'an was still regarded as Chengdu City, but that time was obviously Ye Qing's ulterior motives, and the reason why he suggested resetting Kaifeng was entirely to embezzle the silver taels allocated by the imperial court, not to keep the capital for the imperial court.

"Don't you really think about Yanjing?" Ye Qing continued to stroke the three words of Dianjiangtai with one hand, looked back at Zhao Kuo and asked with a smile.

Zhao Kuo frowned slightly, somewhat reluctant in his heart, after all, Yanjing was not only a reason for his long distance, but also because of the unfamiliarity with the entire northern land, so Zhao Kuo was not very willing to move the capital of the Great Song Dynasty from the prosperous and wealthy Lin'an to Yanjing.

Even in Zhao Kuo's imagination, Kaifeng was reluctant to be the capital, after all, compared to Jiankang, in addition to being close to Lin'an, Jiankang had never been lost by the imperial court, and because of the close distance between it and Lin'an, both the imperial court and Zhao Kuo were more familiar.

Although Kaifeng was the capital in the past, it is now said to have fallen into decay, without the outline and appearance of a capital city, and it cannot be compared with the prosperous and wealthy Lin'an, as for the more distant Yanjing, Zhao Kuo does not feel that there is a reason to move the capital.

But now Zhao Kuo also knows that since Ye Qing captured Yanjing last year, he is not only digging a canal connecting Yanjing and Yangzhou and other places, but also Yanjing, the capital city under the rule of the Jin State, is also being rebuilt by Ye Qing, it is said that Ye Qing's goal is to build a very magnificent city.

In Ye Qing's opinion, it is imperative for Yanjing to be the capital during this period, of course, although it is not very urgent, but at least it should be put on the agenda to prepare for the future.

The fall of the Jin Kingdom was inevitable, so that the only external threat was Temujin's Great Mongolia, and Yanjing was still an important gateway to the enemy, and an important pass that could control most of the Jin Kingdom's territory and deter Goryeo.

Wan Yan Jing's death is nothing more than two possibilities, Wan Yan Xun, the king of Jin Xing, colluded with the Liao people of the previous Jin State, or colluded with the Goryeo people, so that Wan Yan Xun was able to usurp the throne successfully.

If it only relied on the forces that Wan Yan Xun secretly colluded with in the Jin Kingdom, even if there was a possibility of succeeding in usurping the throne, it would never let Wan Yan Jing die so embarrassed, and he almost couldn't even save his wife and children.

And now Wan Yanjing's death not only gave Ye Qing a great opportunity to die, but also gave Ye Qing a chance to go to Goryeo to plunder wealth, and never thought of including Goryeo in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, but if he could take this opportunity to make Goryeo more barren due to the war, then why not?

Zhao Kuo looked at Ye Qing with some dumbfounded, he couldn't imagine that Ye Qing was still in Lin'an now, and he had begun to not only plan how to attack gold, but even went to the so-called Goryeo to plunder.

At the moment, he couldn't help but be a little daze: "Since that's the case, doesn't that mean...... I can also take the opportunity to plunder in the country of Da Viet? ”

"Judging the situation, if the time permits, why can't you be a robber?" Ye Qing smiled, from the first time Zhao Kuo proposed it, he didn't completely oppose it, but because he was worried that Zhao Kuo, a war fledgling, would become fluttery after a few victories.

Zhao Kuo's

His expression was instantly happy, and he didn't realize that the reason why Ye Qing was like this was to cultivate his toughness through war, so that Zhao Kuo would not be full of subconscious fear of Yanjing and other places like other Song people or the imperial court.

From the moment Zhao Kuo heard Ye Qing's proposal to make Yanjing the capital, Ye Qing found that a look of fear unconsciously flashed on Zhao Kuo's face, and just like when he talked to Li Fengniang about this idea, Li Fengniang's eyes also flashed a trace of fear.

This fear is obviously not the shadow left by the Jin people, it obviously comes from the shame of Jingkang back then, so that the Great Song royal family, even if it has made the Jin State pay tribute to the Song Dynasty, but the psychological shadow that has been oppressed for many years is like an infectious disease that can be contagious, and it has been inherited from generation to generation.

Zhao Kuo is young now, in Ye Qing's eyes, there is obviously a chance to completely reverse this situation in him, especially now when the Jin Kingdom is in decline and the Great Song Dynasty is revived, if he can start from Zhao Kuo and inject a strong gene into the Great Song Dynasty from top to bottom, it may make the entire Great Song Dynasty completely different from the previous weakness of the Great Song Dynasty since Zhao Kuo started.

Naturally, since this is the case, the Song Court is still not the Song Court, so maybe it will only be left to future generations to comment, but no matter what, since it has come to this point, Ye Qing obviously does not plan to turn back.

Although the establishment of the Great Yuan Dynasty by the Mongols was short, it was in these short decades that the whole world was able to talk about it, and Ye Qing had no reason not to take advantage of this opportunity to let the whole world also see a different Great Song Dynasty from the past.

"And when are you going north?" Sitting on the steps, Zhao Kuo's heart was slightly reluctant, at this time, he still felt that Ye Qing still had a lot of things he needed to learn, and similarly, Ye Qing should also have a lot of things to teach him.

"It's just these days." Ye Qing looked at the northern sky and sighed slightly, and said: "The northern land is already extremely cold, and the reason why Wan Yan Xun chose this time to mutiny and usurp the throne is obviously because he thinks that it is difficult for me to immediately send troops to avenge Wan Yan Jing at this time, thus leaving them plenty of time to prepare, including after finishing Yan Jing, they have time to straighten out the court of the Jin Kingdom." Of course, we also need to worry about whether they will take the initiative to attack us because of this, so ...... Going north to return to Yanjing can not be delayed any longer. ”

After listening to Ye Qing's words, Zhao Kuo turned his head to look at Zhang Dehui behind him, Zhang Dehui, who had just disappeared, was carrying a gun on his back at this time, and handed it to Zhao Kuo respectfully.

Zhao Kuo looked at the rifle in his hand, and the leaf word on the butt was clearly visible: "Since King Yan has decided, then I ...... You should take this gun with you for self-defense, including the other dozen or so ....... ”

Zhao Kuo said as he handed the rifle in his hand to Ye Qing, Ye Qing glanced down, then slowly pushed it back to Zhao Kuo, and said with a somewhat relieved smile: "Don't worry, Yanjing is much stronger than you think, not to mention ...... You must already know the origin of this gun, and it will be given to you completely from this day onwards. ”

"But the Northland ......." Zhao Kuo was also a little moved in his heart.

"There is no need to be like this, mother-in-law, although the 3000 battalion is now in Yanjing and cannot create a gun as accurate as this one, there is no problem with a slightly worse accuracy." Ye Qing took a deep breath, then took the gun from Zhao Kuo's hand, skillfully pulled the bolt, and began to explain the various parts to Zhao Kuo.

The two of them sat down at the steps, one said seriously, the other listened attentively, and it wasn't until Zhao Kuo was able to skillfully disassemble that Ye Qing stood up and walked outside the palace under the cover of night.

"Don't worry, King Yan, I won't lose to you." Zhao Kuo looked at the back of Ye Qing, who was gradually about to melt into the night, and said loudly.

"Okay, then you and I will compare and see if you are the first to eat Ziqi and Luodian, or I will take the Jin Kingdom first!" Ye Qing turned his head and looked at Zhao Kuo, who waved goodbye to him, and said loudly.

"Good! Deal! Zhao Kuo's heart was full of pride and ambition, and he said loudly and firmly.
