After the matter was explained, Liu Changfeng and blacksmith Sun supported Feng Rubing and retreated into the secret passage again. Ye Leyi waved away Saren and looked at Qin Luo with a smile, "Qin Luo, you owe me a big favor. ”

Although this is the reward for winning the horse race, Ye Leyi obviously had a small fight with Qin Luo in that horse race, and he didn't take it seriously. Ye Leyi can now disregard her own safety and help with all her might, Qin Luo is naturally very grateful to her. He arched his hand and said: "Second Miss is very kind today, Qin is unforgettable." He will set a straw ring on the day to repay the lady's kindness. ”

"I don't expect you to tie the grass ring, I only hope that in the future, when Chishui and Qingyun are enemies, you can show mercy to your subordinates, and don't forget the friendship between you and my alliance today." Ye Leyi said slowly, "I also promise you that if Chishui takes power one day, he is willing to coexist peacefully with Nanchu and will not provoke a war between the two countries for no reason." ”

"I hope so." Qin Luo saw that Ye Leyi suddenly said this inexplicably, it seems that at the latest, when the spring flowers are blooming, the Chishui Ministry will have a big action.

"Qin Luo, tomorrow, I will go to Shishan to find you and continue to study." Ye Leyi smiled slightly, "It's late at night, you go quickly, don't make them wait for a long time." ”

"Second Miss, let's rest early." Qin Luo walked to the weapon rack, touched the mechanism, and the door slowly opened again.

By the time Qin Luo came down, Liu Changfeng and blacksmith Sun had already settled Feng Rubing, and they were in the open space where they had descended the steps. Feng Rubing wrapped himself in the quilt and fell asleep first.

Liu Changfeng was not very relieved, and said to the blacksmith Sun and Qin Luo: "I see that General Feng is a little weak, I will accompany him here for a night tonight, you can go back first." ”

"Then I'll accompany General Feng tomorrow night." Blacksmith Sun said, "Qin Luo, you are a literati, so you don't have to come down to visit often. ”

Qin Luo also knew that he would not be able to work lightly, and in Danyang City, he stared at him a lot. So he nodded and said, "Okay, then General Feng, I will entrust it to the two." ”

Blacksmith Sun flew out of the secret passage with Qin Luo and returned to the abandoned pasture. At this time, the three horses were still resting on the grass not far away, and Qin Luo said, "I'll go back by myself." ”

Blacksmith Sun flatly refused: "No, Liu Changfeng easily took you out because he fascinated the soldiers outside your tent." I've got to send you back, and I can't let them know that you've been out. ”

"How did we get in quietly?" Qin Luo asked.

Blacksmith Sun patted his chest and said confidently: "Don't worry, my light skills are no worse than Liu Changfeng." ”

The next day, Ye Leyi went to Shishan early and waited for Qin Luo. As soon as the two of them met, Ye Leyi couldn't wait to ask: "Wuping Pass has been breached, what are you going to do next?" ”

"The court intends to negotiate peace." Qin Luo said coldly.

"Peace?" Ye Leyi looked at Qin Luo in surprise, "Your emperor is really cowardly, now negotiate peace?" He was counting on it, would Tuoba Yan be able to spit out the fat that he had eaten in his mouth? ”

"Don't say that. In fact, the emperor can't say anything in the court. These must have been set by Mrs. Xu's group of ministers. Qin Luo thought of Zhao Ruize who was far away in Pingcheng, although he was now the emperor, but in Qin Luo's impression, he was still the little child who was in the enemy camp and didn't cry or make trouble.

In fact, after so many years, Zhao Ruize has already grown up and grown into a gentle and elegant young man. But the changes of the year made his temperament change greatly, he relied too much on Mrs. Xu, and entrusted the government to him, and he had no opinions.

Such a monarch may be able to be a conservative monarch when ruling the world, but in troubled times, he cannot lead the people to tide over difficulties. The building will fall, and it will be difficult to support it alone. The more he got to this time, the more Qin Luo hated that his strength was too small, and he couldn't do many things.

For example, peace. The court decided to make peace, and there was nothing they could do to stop them, who were in a foreign land.

Ye Leyi doesn't understand so many twists and turns in the Central Plains, and their Xiangqiang people have always liked to go straight. Ye Leyi frowned and said, "Can't your emperor even be the lord who disagrees and does not negotiate peace?" In this case, it is better to abdicate and make way for Xian. ”

"It's not that he doesn't want to be in charge, it's just that he's under 20 years old and hasn't been in power yet." Qin Luo explained.

"Look at Tuoba Yan, aren't you not even twenty years old?" Yeleyi pursed his lips, "Look at him, he didn't directly kill his mother and destroy the Black Rock Division. Calling for wind and rain on the grassland, so majestic. ”

Qin Luo shook his head, "The Central Plains pays attention to etiquette. Killing one's father and mother, it is impossible for it to happen in Nanchu. Even the emperor can't do whatever he wants. The ministers below will supervise the imperial power, and the prime minister and the imperial power will also check each other. Hey, these are very complicated, and I can't explain them for a while. ”

Ye Leyi was also in the clouds when she heard it, she shook her head and said: "You Nanchu are really troublesome, this has advantages and disadvantages." Xiang Qiang is different, although he fights and kills all year round, he is all open-minded. The strong are kings, and no one will say anything. ”

"It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be solved by force." Qin Luo said, "The people of the Central Plains have a saying that it is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to defend the country. The general immediately won the world, and the civil servants dismounted to rule the world. And Xiang Qiang has always been a man with few ministers and many generals. ”

"I know that you Nanchu use literature to suppress martial arts. But don't you think that it is precisely because of this that Nanchu is not as good as the next generation, and in the end, Xiang Qiang attacked your old capital. Yereyi asked rhetorically.

Qin Luo was asked all of a sudden, he looked at Ye Leyi approvingly, and said in his heart that this woman was really unusual, and he saw the most fundamental problem in Nan Chu at a glance.

It is precisely because of the suppression of military generals by civil ministers that even if the military generals have military power in their hands, they are targeted by the emperor and civil officials. Don't think about rebellion or anything, even if you don't rebel, you may end up with a lot of beheading. Therefore, many people in Nanchu said that they would rather farm than be a soldier. And those generals are also trembling, walking on thin ice. Do not seek merit, but seek no fault.

How can such a country have a strong army and a brave general? How can such a country hold its territory?

"Emperor Taizu of this dynasty was born as a military general and seized the rivers and mountains of the previous dynasty." Qin Luo slowly explained, "In order to prevent someone from following his example and usurping power and seizing the throne in the future, Taizu suppressed the military generals to become a tradition of this dynasty. ”

"Didn't the ancestors of the Qingyun Department also seize the power of the Jinyang Department by force? But you see, does the Qingyun Ministry suppress the generals? Ye Leyi sneered, "It's your Emperor Taizu who is too conservative and worries about the sky, which has led to today's disaster." ”

"You're right and you're not right." Qin Luo said, "Xiang Qiang is not much better than Nan Chu, it's just that you haven't seen Xiang Qiang's hidden calamity yet." ”

"Woe, what woe?" Yereyi asked.

Qin Luo didn't answer, but asked, "Why do the tribes on the grassland like to fight?" ”

Yeleyi thought for a moment and summed it up sharply: "For the land and the cattle and sheep." ”

Qin Luo's dumb riddle, Ye Leyi guessed all night, but he didn't guess it. The next day, she met Qin Luo casually, and did not ask for the answer to the riddle.

"General Feng is doing well in the secret road, and for his wrist and ankle injuries, I also asked Saren to give him medicine." Ye Le reported Feng Rubing's situation according to the old, "In the past few days, the soldiers have turned over Danyang City, but they haven't found it. This hiding place you think of is really amazing. ”

After Feng Rubing was rescued by them, the guard woke up to find that the prisoner had escaped. He immediately told the soldiers who were escorting, and the soldiers also reported to Qin Luo. Qin Luo just asked them to search the whole city with an expressionless face, and if they couldn't find it, they would come and see them. It's a pity that those soldiers don't know that the person in front of them is the real culprit.

"I can find this good place to hide, thanks to the second miss." Qin Luo smiled, "Without you, I didn't know that there would be a secret passage under the Golden Palace." ”

Ye Leyi sighed with emotion: "This secret passage is left by the ancestors of the Tuoba clan for the escape of their descendants. But he never expected that a hundred years later, this secret passage would harm the Tuoba clan. ”

"In the future, you're not going to do this secret passage, are you?" Qin Luo always felt that there was a faint bad feeling in his heart. This secret passage has indeed become a hidden danger, and there are too many people who know about it.

"No, it won't." Ye Leyi said disdainfully, "My Chishui Department fought against Qingyun, of course, I defeated him in a dignified manner. ”

"That'll be fine." Qin Luo said.

"By the way, how are you going to send Feng Rubing back to Nanchu?" Yereyi asked. She has always been curious about what Qin Luo has the ability to send a wanted Chu person back safely.

"I don't believe it yet, the time is not right. It is estimated that the second lady will have to trouble for a while. Qin Luo said, "When the search is not strict, we can send him back." ”

"You say, when the second prince heard that Feng Rubing was lost, would he suspect you?" Yereyi asked again.

Qin Luo smiled bitterly, "Of course it will." ”

"Then you still save Feng Rubing?"

Qin Luo shook his head, "You are wrong, now whether I do it or not, he will doubt me." So, it doesn't matter if you do it or don't do it. ”

"With Tuoba Ling here, you will have a hard time in the future." Ye Le leaned on Qin Luo and asked quietly, "Have you ever thought about solving this trouble forever?" ”

"What?"

Ye Leyi slashed his neck with his left hand, and the expression, the movement, was already obvious.

Qin Luo secretly sighed that Ye Leyi was unscrupulous, he shook his head and said: "I don't have that ability, is it possible, you can help me solve it?" ”

"You're thinking too much." Yeleyi snorted coldly, "I'm too lazy to meddle with your business." ”

"The second prince is also a hero." Qin Luo said with a slightly pitiful expression, "If I don't make enemies of him, perhaps, we can become friends." ”

"When you meet an opponent in chess, you will meet a good talent, which is also a great joy in life." Yereyi said.

Qin Luo looked at Ye Leyi, in fact, compared to the second prince, Ye Leyi was a more terrible enemy. She has the means, the vision, and the courage. Although she is a woman, she is better than many men.

"Second Miss, I'm glad that I don't have to be your enemy for the time being." Qin Luo smiled, "I'm afraid, I'm not your opponent." ”

Ye Leyi smiled and said without modesty: "It's good that you know, so ah, never be an enemy of our Chishui." ”

"I hope so." Qin Luo said, "We, the Chu State, have always disliked wars. However, if someone invades us, the state of Chu will definitely fight back. ”

Counterattack? Ye Leyi held back a smile, just like the Chu State, do you still want to fight back?

Of course, in front of Qin Luo, Ye Leyi did not mock. She nodded and said, "My Chishui Department is not very ambitious, and it would be good to be able to dominate the grassland." We will never touch the Central Plains! ”
