Zhao Bingwen, the governor of Haizhou on Shandong East Road, was walking to the mansion with Hao Jinqing, the commander of Pengcheng County, under his jurisdiction, and behind the two of them, he was followed by several subordinates, and from time to time he would look back, obviously afraid that someone would follow them all the way.

After entering the mansion with Hao Jinqing, a subordinate behind him motioned for others to wait at the door, and then hurriedly walked in with Zhao Bingwen and Hao Jinqing.

In the study, Zhao Bingwen looked at Hao Jinqing for a while, and then at the subordinate, hesitating and tangled in his heart, not knowing how to choose next.

"Your Excellency......." Hao Jinqing wanted to get up from the chair, but was stopped by Zhao Bingwen reaching out and signaling.

"Dare to ask Mr. Gao's name?" Zhao Bingwen saluted to the man dressed as a man, and asked in a solemn tone.

"Lord Zhao is polite, in Xia Dong Chao." Dong Chao had been standing beside Hao Jinqing, looking at Zhao Bingwen staring at him at the moment, and calmly replied.

According to this official...... As far as the old man knew, the Song Dynasty had no intention of going on another northern expedition at this time, let alone ...... Now the old man has been an official in Dajin for many years ....... Zhao Bingwen didn't know how to refuse for a while.

Hao Jinqing and Yuan Haowen are both his students, and this person was introduced by Hao Jinqing, and after some verbal temptation, his purpose surfaced, that is, he wanted to win himself over to the Song Dynasty, or rather, ...... I hope that one day in the future, I will be able to fight back.

Seeing Hao Jinqing's somewhat nervous appearance, Zhao Bingwen sighed again, looked at Dong Chao and thought for a while: "Can you allow the old man to think about it?" For a while, the old man is afraid that he will not be able to answer you. ”

Today's Dong Chao is no longer the Dong Chao when he fell into the grass, and his ability to be obedient and listen to the sound has also been practiced a lot in recent years.

Looking at Zhao Bingwen, who looked cautious, Dong Chao smiled, and said in a sincere tone: "That's natural, Lord Zhao doesn't have to agree so quickly, after all, the adult has been an official in Dajin for many years, and the family business is now here, and there are many entanglements, Dong understands the worries of adults." ”

"Then thank you Lord Dong for your understanding. But...... I don't know that Lord Dong is now the ...... in the Song Court. Zhao Bingwen continued to ask tentatively.

"Lord Zhao, Dong is just a pawn of the imperial court, and now he is in the Imperial City Division, otherwise, how can he appear in Haizhou." Dong Chao replied with a smile.

When Zhao Bingwen heard the three words of the Imperial City Division, he was slightly shocked in his heart, and blurted out to ask: "The Imperial City Division that Lord Dong said, its commander is Ye Qing, the teacher of my Great Golden Emperor's grandson Wan Yan Jing?" ”

"Exactly. However, now Commander Ye is no longer the commander of the Imperial City Division, but Li Heng is the ...... of the Imperial City Division. Dong Chao explained to Zhao Bingwen.

"What about Ye Qing? Where will he be sent? Don't....... Zhao Bingwen's first reaction was whether Ye Qing would invest in gold.

After all, in the past few years, I have also heard about some things in the court, and the master-apprentice between the imperial grandson Wanyan Jing and Ye Qing, the imperial city of the Song Dynasty, is even more widely spread in the Jin Kingdom.

And it is said that since Ye Qing sent an envoy to the Jin Kingdom once, whether it was the saint Wan Yan Yong, or Wan Yan Jing, who was promoted from the king of Jinyuan County to the emperor's grandson, he has never given up on wooing Ye Qing over the years, which can be described as full of sincerity.

But Ye Qing was loyal to the Song court, and over the years, he was still indifferent in the face of the great efforts of the saint and the imperial grandson.

"There may be opportunities for Lord Zhao to ask Lord Ye for advice in person, because ......." Dong Chao looked at Zhao Bingwen, who looked moved, smiled and continued: "Because in a short time, Lord Ye will go to Huainan East Road to be a dispatcher, and then Lord Zhao and Lord Ye can be regarded as neighbors across the river, wouldn't it be convenient?" ”

"What? Ye Qing ....... Zhao Bingwen was taken aback and asked in disbelief.

It is impossible for Song Ting not to know that Ye Qing has been being wooed by Dajin, not to mention that three years ago, when the imperial grandson sent the Song court to Lin'an, he had blatantly wooed Ye Qing, and it is said that the two had talked and laughed on Lin'an Royal Street, and even drank wine together in a tavern for a long time.

Zhao Bingwen was also very curious, what kind of talent was this Ye Qing, who could make the saint and the imperial grandson value him so much, and even treat him as the ether master.

For three years, the king of Jinyuan County has become the grandson of the emperor, but the position of the prince is still vacant, and even Liu Zhongzhi, who is favored by the saint, can only be relegated to the position of the crown prince Zhan Shi.

And for Ye Qing, three years is enough for him to do a lot of things, and the intelligence network of the Imperial City Division has now been built by him, which can be called perfect in this era.

Similarly, today's Imperial City Division is still so strong on the surface, even after Li Heng took over, the Imperial City Division is still the feared Imperial City Division.

Such a huge intelligence network naturally needs a lot of money to support, and just relying on the little money from the imperial court is obviously not enough for Ye Qing to secretly do so many things in the past three years.

But fortunately, he now has a wife who can make money, and the gouache made by Yan Chengcheng has been popular in almost the entire Southern Song Dynasty in the past three years, which allows him to let go of his hands and feet and not have to think about financial resources.

Ye Qing, who finally really began to enter and leave the court, walked out of the palace with Wang Huai, and the dispatch documents of the Ministry of Officials are now in hand, as for when he will go to office, it depends on when he will leave.

"The old man Xin Qiji has won it for you, and he will be the envoy of Yangzhou, as for the candidate for the governor of Yangzhou, it is not for the old man to intervene. But according to the rules of the court, I'm afraid that most of them are people who don't agree with you. Wang Huai handed over Xin Qiji's paperwork to Ye Qing, and finally said with a sigh of relief behind his hands.

"Thank you to the king, and the lower officials also gave up the ...... for Xin." Ye Qing smiled and saluted Wang Huai.

"Don't thank me. The court is the court of your young people sooner or later, the old man has been in office for so many years, and he has always been determined to go further in the court, so that his ambition for so many years can only be stored in his chest. Although Xin Qiji was a reformer, the court also knew that he was loyal, but after all, it was his identity and temperament that made him ostracized by his colleagues above the court. And you, Ye Qing, have been supporting you behind your back all these years, so you can be so like a fish in water, but once you arrive at the place to be sent, it will be better than being an official in Lin'an. You also participated in the Jiankang incident back then, and you must have some understanding of the local officialdom, but the old man still has to tell you that what you saw in Jiankang back then was just the tip of the iceberg, and the local officials were far from being as simple as you thought, Yangzhou...... After all, it was raised by the stepmother, and the court's mind has never been here, so when the time comes, I am afraid it will be even more difficult for you. Wang Huai said slowly as he paced.

"Thank you Prime Minister Wang for reminding me, the lower officials will definitely act carefully." Ye Qing thanked sincerely.

"Yang Jian has been in Yangzhou for nearly four years, and the imperial court has focused the Northern Expedition on Lizhou Road and other roads, so it's ......." Wang Huai turned his head to look at Ye Qing, patted Ye Qing's shoulder a little indescribably, and said: "It's good to do it yourself, above the Lin'an court, the old man can take care of it, and the old man will help you without you opening your mouth, but in the end, it depends on whether you can withstand the difficulties of the officials below in Yangzhou." ”

Watching Wang Huai get into the carriage and leave, the back was a little unrewarded in Ye Qing's opinion.

He was determined to go on the Northern Expedition all his life, but in the end he fell into the party struggle above the court, and spent years between deceit, even if he still maintained the will to resist the Northern Expedition in his heart, but after all, he was consumed by time and became an old fox above the court.

Shi Miyuan finally got the position he wanted most, that is, the position of the head of the household, and Han Yanxuan also got everything he wanted, and was sent to Jingnan South Road as a pacification envoy and prefect, and the Huainan East Road, where Ye Qing was going to, was only separated by a Huainan West Road.

Seeing Han Yanxuan slowly getting off the carriage and standing aside waiting for him, Ye Qing stepped forward with a smile: "Lord Han should be happy to be promoted to Jingnan Road, but for some reason he has a sad face?" ”

"Isn't Lord Ye also preoccupied?" Han Yanxuan said unceremoniously.

In the past three years, the three of them have competed for each other in the court, and the matter of Poli has made the three of them have to cooperate because of their interests, but above the court, they still have to attack each other from time to time because of their interests.

But even so, in the end, no one could help anyone, and they still watched each other get everything they wanted.

Of course, Shi Miyuanzhi was not in the Northern Expedition, nor was he in the army, so the promotion to the head of the household department made Han Yanxuan look down on him even more, and at the same time, his heart was also full of resentment against the imperial court.

The imperial court appointed him as the head of the household, obviously to give Shi Miyuan a greater opportunity to make money, which naturally made Han Yanxuan indignant, but because of the emperor's intentions, what he Han Yanxuan could do was only to turn pale, as if he had lost the battle.

"Having a drink together, it can be regarded as Han Mou's practice for Lord Ye." Han Yanxuan asked with a sigh.

"I'm not free, the prince summoned me, Ye doesn't dare to refuse." Ye Qing deliberately said with a hint of ostentatiousness in his expression.

In the past three years, because of the Po Li incident, the relationship between him and the prince is well known, and it is precisely because of his close relationship with the prince that the rumors and rumors of Tongjin and Jinjin have not been able to set off a big storm.

Looking at Ye Qing's smug appearance, Han Yan couldn't help but snort, and still unconsciously blocked Ye Qing: "Then even if Han Mou has a lot of mouths, but ...... Han wanted to remind Lord Ye that Huainan East Road is adjacent to the Jin people, and Lord Ye has been eyebrow-to-eye with the Jin people all these years, but don't get carried away after leaving Lin'an, and be caught by others by the pigtails. ”

"Lord Lao Han is bothered, by the way, speaking of this, Ye still wants to ask more, Lord Han, Jingnan South Road borders Huainan West Road in the east and Lizhou Road in the west, Lord Han is sent to Jingnan South Road this time, won't he take a fancy to Yu Yunwen's credit on Lizhou Road again? If Lord Han has always liked to rob others of their credit, he will go wherever he has merit, and I don't know where Lord Han plans to go next? ”

Ye Qing also blocked Han Yanxuan, who likes to snatch the credit of others, of course, it also reminded him that eating goodbye is too ugly, otherwise above the court, Shi Miyuan will not let him go easily, and the impeachment of his music will never be less of his own.

"Lord Ye, is this jealousy?" Han Yan snorted, didn't bother to pay attention to Ye Qing anymore, turned around and got into the carriage again.
