The news of Ye Qing's victory in the Northern Expedition was far faster than that of other northern things that came to Lin'an, and the people in Lin'an City were discussing and arguing fiercely, since it could be launched among the court officials in a very short period of time, then Li Fengniang in the prince's mansion was also suspicious.

Although Li Fengniang has never thought that the queen's throne is so close to her as she is now, it is precisely because the queen's throne is getting closer and closer to her that it also makes her feel more serious about gains and losses.

Han Cheng and Zhao Ruyu's support now, including Ye Qing's plan in Jinan Mansion now, has made Li Fengniang just a stone's throw away from the queen's throne, but now the gossip about Ye Qing in Lin'an City also made her a little worried, and she was afraid that the minister would turn against herself at this critical moment, because of her relationship with Han Cheng and Zhao Ruyu, so that her dream of being the queen would become a mirror after all.

As in previous years, last year's Yuan Ri, the entire royal family never went to the Lonely Mountain Garden, but this year's Yuan Day, the royal family still went to the Lonely Mountain Garden to come to the Yuan Day to enjoy with the people.

At the rockery pavilion, the cool breeze blows, a strand of naughty hair flutters happily in front of Zhong Qing's forehead, Li Fengniang sits quietly in the pavilion, watching Zhong Qing walk in slowly, standing next to it and looking at the West Lake full of tourists in the distance.

"Why didn't Ye Qing finish catching Yan Jing? Such a good opportunity, if he can seize Yan Jing's immortal achievements, who in the court would dare to criticize him Ye Qing? Li Fengniang asked bluntly.

Zhong Qing did not answer Li Fengniang's words immediately, but turned her head and looked at Li Fengniang quietly, her gentle eyes were like autumn water, gentle and sharp, and only after a while did she speak: "If Ye Qing catches Yan Jing, who will be the most beneficial?" What's more, after arresting Yan Jing, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Ye Qing to run back to Lin'an, even if he runs back to Lin'an, then it will lead the anger of the Jin people to Lin'an City. At that time, would people still think that catching Yan Jing was a great achievement? ”

"But...... But now we are victorious, and the Jin people are defeated. Li Fengniang was puzzled.

"It's just a victory, the golden people are like tigers and wolves, and my Da Song has a deep understanding of this. Once Yan Jing is arrested, it will inevitably cause the Jin people to retaliate frantically, with the turmoil above the court now, how can they afford it? When the time comes, the court will not say that Ye Qing is a hero, but a sinner who introduced jackals, tigers and leopards into Lin'an and my Great Song Dynasty. Zhong Qing explained to Li Fengniang.

She didn't tell this Li Fengniang, who was full of the queen's throne, that if Yan Jing was arrested, once the Jin people lost their backbone and fell into the predicament of infighting, the first one to get the greatest benefit would not be the Song Ting, but the Tatars who were far away from the Song people, and even for the Song Court, it would definitely be a thing that would do more harm than good after catching Yan Jing.

Although I don't know what Ye Qing plans in his heart now, for Zhong Qing, who has always had a unique view of the trend of the court and can see the situation clearly in the general trend of the world, Ye Qing should have never regarded Jin Ren as a real opponent from beginning to end, and his real opponent should be ...... The Tatars that no one can afford to look up to.

"When will Ye Qing come back?" Li Fengniang asked again.

In front of Bai Chun, Li Fengniang was still a little weak and polite, but in front of Zhong Qing, Li Fengniang completely became her usual aggressive appearance, and similarly, in front of Bai Chun, she would cover up her and Ye Qing's affairs a little, in front of Zhong Qing, Li Fengniang had no intention of hiding it at all.

Although she didn't say it explicitly, she now knows what is going on between her Li Fengniang and Ye Qing.

"I don't know." Zhong Qing's eyes were a little confused, she missed Ye Qing very much, but she didn't want to see Ye Qing return to Lin'an when the situation on Shandong Road was unstable and Nanjing Road was full of unknowns.

Nanjing Road does not return to the Song Dynasty for a day, which means that if Ye Qing leaves Shandong Road, then everything will be useless, and it also leaves an extremely easy opportunity for the Jin people to fight back.

This is obviously something that no one wants to see, and no one wants to, after so many dead and wounded, the territory that has just been acquired has changed hands in a short period of time.

Wei Shaowang Wanyan Yongji was calm, relaxed and leisurely, with that cynical smile on the corner of his mouth, holding a sunspot in his hand, looking at Ye Qing, who was holding a box of white seeds, but didn't know how to leave the child.

Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm were one left and one right, originally sitting next to them and watching, but as the battle situation became more and more unfavorable to Ye Qing, the two had to snort coldly, and after glaring at Yan Yongji, they all stood up and began to give Ye Qing a move.

"Settle down here, this is where he can be stopped and eat the part we just occupied." Zhong Silkworm pointed to the black and white pieces on the chessboard and said.

"No, he should take care of this place first, he must be the next step is to settle down here." Mo Xiaobao opposed Zhong Silkworm's support and expressed his opinions.

"If you fall there, as long as people go here, here, and here, and here, the adults will die." Zhong Silkworm groaned and rubbed the door of her head that was flicked by Ye Qing.

Mo Xiaobao gloated twice: "What's the matter, it should still fall here, in this way, adults are just missing an arm, at least there are people who deal with others...... Ouch....... ”

Before Mo Xiaobao finished speaking, Lord Ye, who was about to lose an arm, immediately reached out and flicked it Mo Xiaobao's forehead, proving that he was not missing an arm or leg.

"Admit defeat, Lord Ye." Wanyan Yongji threw the sunspot back into the chess box.

"No, no, no, you wait a while, I'll think about it." Someone held the chess box and stared intently at the chessboard, as if no matter where he landed, he was a dead end.

"It's just a battle of trapped beasts." Wanyan Yongji said lazily.

Then, Wanyan Yongji, who had been with a cynical smile on his face, saw that the chess box in Ye Qing's hand suddenly loosened, and with a bang, all the white pieces in the chess box were scattered on the chessboard: "Mo Xiaobao...... Why are you pushing me? Look, the good situation has been disrupted by you again, otherwise I would have just put it in that ...... You can turn defeat into victory. ”

"My lord, I didn't touch you." Mo Xiaobao was confused, this was the third time he had been misunderstood today.

"That's it, I can see it, if you hadn't happened to touch the adult's arm, causing the adult to not hold the chess box steady, the adult would have killed all of them in this game." Zhong Silkworm was on the side and said confidently.

Although in the last game, Lord Ye complained that he touched his arm, but Lord Ye, who had already touched his arm no less than seven or eight times and scattered chess pieces seven or eight times, why couldn't he put the chess box in the corner to play chess like Wanyan Yongji!

Wanyan Yongji's expression was calm, with a faint smile, and without saying a word, he looked at the three people in front of him accusing each other, and he was already used to it, every time at a critical moment, Ye Qing's chess box happened to be touched by the two unlucky eggs behind him, and it was spilled to the ground, making the chess game unable to continue.

"Go, go, pour tea, it's a waste of my mind." Someone picked up the empty teacup in frustration, and then slammed it on the table, still full of regret, as if he could have won if it hadn't been for the spilled chess pieces.

"Do it all over again?" Ye Qing looked at the leisurely Wanyan Yongji and said.

"Okay." Wanyan Yongji is not annoyed, anyway, he has time now.

"I won't let you this time." Someone swore by it.

"Just let the horses come." Wanyan Yongji responded: "But can Lord Ye really be so leisurely now?" ”

The departure of Wanyan Shoudao and others made Wanyan Yongji guess Ye Qing's intentions at once, but as the so-called victor prince and loser Kou, he has now been placed under house arrest by Ye Qing in the mansion, so he continues to live in the Jinan Mansion of the Song people with a normal heart and peace of mind.

"Don't worry, I'm very leisurely now, I came here recently, in addition to learning chess skills with you, I just want to invite you to watch the fireworks of today's Shangyuan Festival, and help the slightly lifeless Jinan Mansion." Ye Qing, like in the previous games, was a sharp attack on Yan Yongji at the beginning.

Wanyan Yongji is still unhurried, no matter how murderous you fall, he still follows his own way, calmly encircling and defending Ye Qing's fierce attack.

"This won't be my last...... Shangyuan Festival, right? Wanyan Yongji paused, and asked with a smile on his face.

"No, it won't." After two sentences, looking at the chessboard again, someone seems to be in a dilemma again.

After glancing at Yan Yongji with some dissatisfaction, how could this thing's chess skills be so good, he slowly said: "After Yan Jing stabilizes the court, I will let you go back." ”

"You will also open the net on Nanjing Road?" Wanyan Yongji was still cynical, but in his tone, he was somewhat surprised: "Now the morale of your army is flourishing, and I also know that the army under the command of Lord Ye, in just a few days, has now recovered its peak strength of strong soldiers and horses, if you have the heart to take Nanjing Road, it shouldn't be difficult, right?" ”

"It's really not difficult, the army of Lizhou Road in the west, I can also dispatch troops like an arm, this army of Shandong and two roads, King Wei Shao also knows in his heart what is going on now. But...... After all, after a game with Yan Jing's master and apprentice, things still can't be done too much. Ye Qing continued to fall, and then finished Yan Yongji falling and eating, Ye Qing looked at it dumbfounded.

"You mean, you want my Dajin Emperor to take the initiative to withdraw the army on Nanjing Road?" Wanyan Yongji's heart was shocked, and he was even more confused about the relationship between Ye Qing and Wanyan Jing, what kind of master-apprentice relationship it was.

"Then you give me back the son who ate me just now." Ye Qing looked at Bai Zi, who was put into the chess box by Wanyan Yongji, and convulsed.

Wanyan Yongji was stunned for a moment, smiled bitterly and put all the seeds he had just eaten back to their original positions: "Lord Ye's chess style is bright and fair, and I admire it." ”

"Where, where." Someone was not ashamed but proud: "Wan Yan Jing he needs the army of Nanjing Road, I can put it back without hesitation to help him, and I will care about the seventy or eighty thousand army on Nanjing Road?" ”

"I really don't want the throne after Yan Yongji." Wanyan Yongji quietly looked at Ye Qing, who was bored and relieved, and said with a long sigh.

"The heart is separated from the belly, not to mention ...... You don't mean to fight for the throne, it doesn't mean that your subordinates and wings don't want you to become the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, do they? If you become the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, they will naturally follow and ascend, and they will also obtain greater benefits, so it is not impossible for you to be involuntary at that time. After all, how many things in this world can be completely decided by yourself? Ye Qing took a sip of the teacup.

Wanyan Yongji nodded in agreement, Ye Qing said well, he didn't mean it, it didn't mean that his subordinates didn't mean it either, if he was pushed by the current situation and had to fight for the throne, he Wanyan Yongji would probably follow in the footsteps of his uncle and nephew fighting for the emperor at that time.

Of course, he also thought about how Ye Qing would deal with himself if he left him in Jinan Mansion, in addition to helping Yan Jing? To kill or not to kill?

And even if Ye Qing didn't want to kill himself, what about Jing'er? Will Ye Qing borrow a knife to kill someone, and borrow Jing'er's hand to kill himself?

"In this way, I want to thank you Ye Qing for your grace of not killing?" Wanyan Yongji's steady hand continued to fall.

"If you are alive, it will be good for me, and if you die, it will be bad for Dajin and my Da Song." Ye Qing said with a smile, he lost again, he won't stop, go back and study hard with Bai Da Meiren and then find Yan Yongji to take revenge.

"Lord Ye is not determined to be in my Dajin?" Wan Yan Yongji asked in surprise.

Ye Qing didn't answer yet, and after bringing the tea, Zhong Silkworm and Mo Xiaobao, who ran out in a hurry, ran back in a hurry at this time.

"Your Excellency......." Mo Xiaobao shouted hurriedly.

"Let's say, King Wei Shao is not an outsider." Ye Qing said generously.

Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm looked at each other, what does it mean that Wei Shao Wang Wanyan Yongji is not an outsider, in this matter, even Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm are enough to be outsiders.

After hesitating, Mo Xiaobao still walked behind Ye Qing, whispered a few times in Ye Qing's ear with one hand, and then Yan Yongji saw Ye Qing, and after the word "swoon" came out of his mouth, he stood up and ran out.

"Let's talk again when we have time, and we have something urgent to deal with." Before Ye Qing's words fell, the person had already run out.

Leaving Wanyan Yongji alone to sit in the empty room, suddenly a sadness came to his heart: such a frizzy boss actually defeated Dajin's iron cavalry, captured Wanyan Shoudao alive, and captured the Jinan Mansion he was guarding!

Outside the Weishao Palace, Ye Qing jumped on the back of the horse and asked, "When did she come here, why didn't she know beforehand?" Su Xin, why don't you report this kind of thing? ”

"My lord, this ...... We don't know. Zhong Silkworm looked at Ye Qing, who was surprised and delighted, and said.

"Where are the people now?" Ye Qing sat on the back of the horse, only to realize that he didn't know which direction to go.

"I'm almost out of the city, and I was discovered by the scouts, so I hurried back to report it." Mo Xiaobao pointed ahead and said.

The three of them rode quickly on the streets of Jinan Mansion, and now Jinan Mansion, which has gradually returned to normal order, instantly became a chicken flying dog jumping and panicking, so that some people on the street ran to their homes with their heads bored, thinking that they were going to fight again.

The scouts who reported at the door, after watching Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Silkworm come over with Ye Qing, also hurriedly flew on their horses, and then led the three of them to gallop towards the official road outside the city.
