Chapter Ninety-Three: Summer Wind and Dust (Part II)
The servant served a cup of tea, Ye Yingwu looked at the tea leaves floating on the light blue tea, in fact, if he really let him choose, even if there is no sour plum soup, it would be thankful if there was a jar of herbal tea, but with cheap dads and other literati, even in the summer, he could only drink this hot tea.
However, Wang Yao and the others, who were already familiar with these, did not notice the slightly frowning brows of Ye Yingwu and Jiang Hao, who had come all the way to the dust, but Guo Huai, who had always liked to figure out his intentions, noticed it, but he also knew his identity as playing soy sauce here, and it was already very good to be able to sit here, where did he dare to say anything, and even he wanted to plug his ears.
"Zhang Dutong has written a letter to report the matter in Huangzhou, and the old man has also discussed it." Wang Yao opened his mouth to break the silence, holding the arm of the chair with one hand and holding the white beard with the other, "Although this matter is indeed Yuanlie's own opinion, but after all, it is a good deed, and the least people who know it are the best, so I will reveal it, but Yuanlie came to Longxing Mansion this time, and he didn't think it was just to go home." ”
Before Wang Yao's words fell, all eyes had already focused on Ye Yingwu, and Ye Mengding also coughed lightly in cooperation, signaling that Ye Yingwu should answer truthfully, and there was no need to go home to visit relatives as a shield.
Ye Yingwu knew that these old foxes must have noticed something or seen some clues, so he didn't plan to hide it from them, and even this high-sounding home visit was to report his somewhat risky plan after all, lest these old foxes really think that they were the kind of bold and hopeless people.
Seeing that it was the right thing, Jiang Hao looked at Ye Yingwu, Ye Yingwu bowed his head slightly, and then Jiang Hao stood up and closed the door of the council hall. When the last rays of sunlight dissipated from the crack in the door, Ye Yingwu took a light breath, and then explained his plan to lead the Hundred Battles to drive Luzhou for a long time.
Listening to Ye Yingwu's eloquent words, Wang Yao, Zhang Jian, Ye Mengding and others, who were already old foxes in the officialdom, couldn't help but change their faces slightly, after all, this is a matter that affects the whole body, if it succeeds, it will be that the Song army will have no pressure on the east and west flanks of Xiangyang, and it can even form a counter-encirclement posture against Ashu's army, so that Ashu does not dare to act rashly. And if it fails, it will attract Liu Quan's crazy counterattack, and even Luzhou Shenjian City may fall into the hands of the enemy, and the entire Song army's defense line will be cut off.
By the time Ye Yingwu finished speaking, the entire hall had fallen into silence. Wang Yao and the others glanced at each other, and they all saw the horror in each other's eyes. In fact, fundamentally speaking, the idea of guarding this half of the rivers and mountains has been ingrained in the minds of the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty, so Ye Yingwu is already an offensive behavior of Chiguoguo, and in the eyes of Wang Yao and others, the possibility of success is too little, but if it succeeds, the results are indeed very attractive.
Stretched out his hand and gently tapped the armrest of the chair, Ye Mengding felt that it was a little difficult for him to speak, but after all, this was his own son, and it was really inconvenient for him to stand up and evaluate one or two, not to mention that among these people, I have to say that Ye Mengding's thinking was already the most unconservative, so in Ye Mengding's opinion, this is feasible.
"Don't jump to conclusions at this time." Wang Yao frowned and said, "It's best to send a letter to the Nankang Army to inquire, after all, it is a matter of life and death for the entire Xiangfan front, even if it is not reported to the imperial court, it should be prepared in Jiang Xianggong's heart." ”
Zhang Jian nodded cautiously, in fact, Wang Jian said this sentence is not as simple as it seems, it is more to remind a few people present that no matter whether they succeed or not, they must leave a way out first, otherwise it is very likely that Jia Yidao will be caught by some handle at that time. And as an indispensable part of this group, the Duchang Jiang clan should be notified first.
"That's fine, Yuanlie, you stay in Longxing Mansion for two days first, and the details of this matter will be finalized." Ye Mengding spoke slowly, but his sharp gaze did not look at Ye Yingwu, but at Guo Huai, who was a little shrunken opposite him, but after all, he couldn't help but say nothing.
"The lower officials obey the order." Ye Yingwu stood up meticulously and said, but through the corner of his eye, Ye Yingwu still found that Ye Mengding was actually not looking at him, but had been staring at Guo Huai, who was sitting there like a pin.
This Guo Huai is really a grass on the wall, his son has already followed the Tianwu Army with all his heart, and he is still so hesitant, no wonder Ye Mengding and the others left him here, thinking of the purpose of forcing him onto the ship. According to the news from the six doors, this Guo Huai seems to be still trying to contact Jia Yidao, but the family members he sent out either fled with jewels, or were intercepted by the six doors and Jinyi guards on the road.
Inside and outside Guo Huai's mansion, even Ye Yingwu didn't know how many open and dark piles had been laid in the six doors, plus there was Guo Chang, who at least verbally wanted to kill his relatives in righteousness, this Guo Huai didn't seem to have the slightest vigilance, so the six doors made Guo's mansion clear.
"That's fine, since Yuanlie is coming back to visit relatives this time, we old guys can't detain people here, Zhenzhi, let's lead you home with the baby Yanei." Feeling that the atmosphere was a little stiff, Wang Yao hurriedly stood up and said, after all, he was actually respected in the audience, and he opened his mouth that others had to weigh even if they wanted to refute.
————————————————————————————
The moon is in the sky, and the lights are brilliant.
Although Longxing Mansion is not a metropolis like Lin'an, it is also the main traffic point for business travelers after all, and it is the core of the entire Jiangnan West Road, so at night, the flower street of Longxing Mansion also begins to be as lively as usual. What's more, this is a long summer night, with clear wine, hot singing and dancing, wine flags fluttering in the wind and rows of Qinglou Chu Pavilions, so that everyone who passes by here can't help but stop.
If you want to talk about the flower street of Longxing Mansion, you have to mention the drunken spring breeze. Although this drunken spring breeze has only been opened for a few months, the top red aunt in it is a real good product, and many of them are jasper lotus flowers bred in the Jiangnan water town of Lin'an. It is said that this drunken spring breeze was originally a famous green building in Lin'an, but because of the famous Ye Yingwu Ye Yuanjun and Xiangfan Lu's family on Jiangnan West Road, they actually burned the magnificent buildings to scorched earth, and the drunken spring breeze had to come to the bank of this Ganshui.
Hearing this, those who sighed at the rapid rise of the drunken spring breeze said with a smile while bowing their heads: "No wonder, no wonder, behind this drunken spring breeze is Ye Yuanjun, if you can't dominate this flower street, you can't say it!" ”
And Ye Yingwu went home to visit his relatives with such fanfare, as the commander of the four compartments of the Tianwu Army, and the Xing** Zhijun, it is naturally indispensable to entertain guests from all over the world, although these guests are not small, although these guests do not know Ye Yingwu to be honest, and Ye Yingwu does not know them. If you want to entertain guests, you naturally have to get drunk in the spring breeze.
As soon as night fell, the carriage was already parked outside the drunken spring breeze, and the richly decorated carriage was full of the names of these people who also had a place in Longxing Mansion, and some people would find that there were not only literati and scholars, bureaucrats and capable officials, but even many famous businessmen in Longxing Mansion, and even the carriage of Shen Fei of Pingshui Building, known as the "first restaurant on Jiangnan West Road".
Looking at these endless carriages, Chunfang, who stood at the door of the drunken spring breeze and greeted her with a group of daughters, naturally smiled from ear to ear, although this Longxing Mansion is not as prosperous as Lin'an, but after all, it is also the capital of one party, and there is the secret support of the government behind coming here, so the development of the drunken spring breeze is far more prosperous than that of Lin'an, you must know that in Lin'an, the entire drunken spring breeze is actually supported by the reputation of Qiqin, and it cannot be regarded as the number one Qinglou. And when you come to this Longxing Mansion, it is inevitable, and even in the surrounding Fuzhou and other places, Chunfang has already planned to build another branch building.
Looking at Shen Fei, who even had a slight look on his face, Chunfang was even more like a cloud, and even glanced at the two Tianwu Army soldiers standing straight outside the drunken spring breeze gate intentionally or unintentionally, Qiqin was taken away by Ye Mengding, an old fox who helped Ye Yingwu half rob and half sell, and he regretted it, but now he finally knows how generous the reward is.
"Xing ** Zhijun, the four compartments of the Tianwu Army are all commanded to make Ye Zhijun arrive!" A shout came from afar, and the originally noisy drunken spring breeze door suddenly fell silent, and the businessmen and officials who were still greeting just now subconsciously cast their eyes into the distance through the layers of crowds.
A young general in light armor strode out of the drunken spring breeze with two Tianwu soldiers, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and his eyes were only looking straight ahead, and he didn't seem to take these officials and businessmen around him to heart, and the two soldiers behind him were also just as majestic, and even exuded this cold murderous aura all over his body.
A carriage not richly decorated galloped out of the darkness, the sound of horses' hooves shattering. More than a dozen cavalrymen were guarding the carriage in the Hundred Battles, each holding the reins in one hand and pressing the knife in the other, as if anyone who approached the carriage would be slashed by these cavalrymen without hesitation.
The big banner with the word "leaf" was tightly held in Jiang Tie's hand, and the flag was waved in the wind.
The carriage stopped in front of the drunken spring breeze gate, everyone subconsciously held their breath, most people had not seen this young envoy who was as tall as a legend, so there was a little curiosity in awe, and those merchants who were invited to come and even a little flattered were even more with strong expectations.
The cavalry of the hundred battles dismounted at the same time and quickly escorted the carriage. Jiang Tie held the flag in his hand, like a door god standing on the side of the carriage.
The curtain opened, but it wasn't just one person who came out.
The person who got out of the car first was dressed in black, clean and neat, only the jade crown on his head and the jade hanging from his waist showed that this Xuan Ang man not only had a transcendent temperament, but also had an extraordinary status. It's just that the young man in black didn't rush to leave, but raised his arms slightly, but the young man in white who got out of the carriage had a completely different temperament from the young man in black.
"Shhh People who don't know the inside story can't help but take a breath lightly, this young man in black and white is definitely not just a simple companion relationship, although there are not no prostitutes in this era, but such a blatant outcome, this Ye Envoy is absolutely unprecedented. There were even a few old scholars who were not used to seeing so many businessmen who exuded the smell of copper here, and they were ready to step forward to teach Ye Mengding a good lesson, and then left with their sleeves up.
The young man in black did not shy away from holding the hand of the young man in white at all, and at the moment when the two looked at each other, the young man in black also rolled his eyes, and the young man in white was red in anger, if it wasn't for the lights, it was estimated that everyone around him could see it.
Thinking of the cheap old lady who has always been kind, she lost her temper with Qiqin because the Ye family was stunned that no one had a successor, Ye Yingwu was like a heartless smile, fortunately, it is not a man's fault that he can't have children in this era, otherwise he is estimated to be as sad and miserable as Qiqin.
The two of them walked straight up the steps as if no one was around, Ye Yingwu didn't seem to pay attention to the strange eyes cast around him, and Qiqin had been in a state of confusion and hadn't come out of the shadow of Chen's rage.
Chunfang had already seen who the handsome white-clothed young man beside Ye Yingwu was, and secretly shouted in her heart, "Little Ancestor can really mess around", so she could only meet it hard. However, Jiang Hao, who came here first, had already taken the lead and caught up with Chunfang.
The young general stopped in front of the black-clothed young man, clasped his hands into fists and said loudly: "The front compartment of the Tianwu Army is commanding Jiang Hao, see the envoy!" ”
Looking at Jiang Hao, who was slightly bent over, said meticulously, but with a crooked expression on his face, Ye Yingwu couldn't help but complain that he was careless in making friends and not strict with his subordinates, and resisted the urge to kick this guy down, and snorted slightly: "Well, lead the way." ”
The faint fragrance came with the familiar smell of fat powder, Ye Yingwu subconsciously shook his nose, the drunken spring breeze in Longxing Mansion is similar to the drunken spring breeze in Lin'an City that was destroyed in the fire, but in Lin'an, it may only be one of the more prominent among the countless Qinglou Chu Pavilions, and in this Longxing Mansion it is already a phoenix standing proudly on the branches, so that the small pavilions around it are like stars and dare not compete with Haoyue.
As if thinking of something, Ye Yingwu immediately stopped, tilted his head slightly and smiled at the officials and businessmen: "You are waiting here, and it is better to enter this drunken spring breeze with Yuanlie, I don't know what you think?" ”
Seeing the bright smile on the face of this legendary Ye Envoy Jun, the hearts of the merchants and officials who were originally a little apprehensive and even bored finally calmed down a little, no matter what kind of habits this Ye Envoy had or what kind of prestige he had outside, at least in their eyes, this was not a difficult person to get along with.
As for whether it is a smiling tiger or not, it is unknown.
The young man in white pursed his lips and smiled, and with a wave of his hand, the white paper fan had been unfolded in the wind, the white fan was dotted with powerful black branches and pink peach blossoms, and countless eyes were focused on Ye Yingwu, and taking advantage of this gap, the young man in white walked forward leisurely, stayed on the side of Jiang Hao, who was looking ahead, for a moment, and laughed softly:
"Yes."
The corners of Jiang Hao's eyes couldn't help twitching, he knew that he wouldn't have squeezed his eyebrows at Ye Yingwu just now, making Ye Yingwu embarrassed that his sister-in-law didn't know how to retaliate. With a wry smile at the moment, Jiang Hao's figure standing in the wind trembled subconsciously.
No matter how much the officials and businessmen were used to each other before, at least at this time, they all greeted each other with smiles on their faces, and accompanied the black-clothed young man to stride into the drunken spring breeze. And **Chunfang is even more smiling, every person who comes in means that there is a lot of silver in the pocket today. Don't look at this Ye Envoy Jun's strength, but he has always given silver when he enters this drunken spring breeze, and there are a lot of them.
When the young man in white walked up the steps, his eyes wandered, sweeping through the interior of the carved beams and paintings in the drunken spring breeze, and he let out a sigh that was almost inaudible to others. Unexpectedly, a few months later, he once again walked into the Qinglou with the name of "Drunken Spring Breeze", but it was not human, most of the original sisters were already in Lin'an Congliang, and those who followed Chunfang to this Longxing Mansion have become the top matchmakers, and it is naturally impossible to stand in front of this door to welcome guests.
Looking around, no one knows each other, in fact, let alone them, even themselves, aren't they different? Creation makes people, I don't know if it's lucky or sad.
Behind him, there was the conversation and laughter of Ye Yingwu and the officials and businessmen, and the hearty laughter was like an endless wave, drowning everyone. The young man in white couldn't help but smile and walked forward leisurely, not knowing what his origin was, but it didn't prevent the young ladies who were drunk from the spring breeze from admiring this handsome and dashing young man in white.
Qiqin didn't say anything, Chunfang had already squeezed over with a lot of eyes, leaning on Qiqin's side, her eyebrows were full of affection, seeing her own ** rare spring heart, the other ladies didn't dare to come forward to scramble, and instead shifted the target to Ye Yingwu and others who came one after another. Compared with the suave and suave of the young man in white, the masculine aura exuded by the young man in black is equally attractive.
The music is endless, the compliments are endless, and the air around me has the smell of fat powder. Ye Yingwu exhaled lightly and narrowed his eyes.
