Xie Yaoguang, who had sent people to Dingwang's Mansion several times, had never seen Dingwang, and Xie Yaoguang, who decided to go to Dingwang's Mansion in person today, happened to meet Ye Linchen who had returned from going out, and it was a coincidence that Xia Fu, the newly appointed household secretary for a year, was also there.

Xie Yaoguang, who never thought that Xia Fu would also come together, was stunned. It was only a moment of effort, and she changed into a smiling appearance.

"Miss Xie, I haven't seen you for a long time, but my complexion is getting better and better." Sweeping up and down, Xie Yaoguang glanced at him, and Xia Fuyu was impatient.

Hearing this, Xie Yaoguang curled his lips lightly and ignored him, but instead looked at Ye Linchen and said, "Your Highness, Yaoguang has been waiting for you for several days. Why don't you invite me in and have a cup of tea to moisten my throat?"

"That's how it should be." Ye Linchen, who flew down from the horse, walked quickly to Xie Yaoguang's side and was about to hold Xie Yaoguang's hand, when he suddenly remembered that Xia Fu was still retracting his hand on the side, and said in a solemn voice: "Miss Xie, come with this king." ”

Xia Fu on the side looked at the two people who walked into the mansion side by side in a daze, and then looked at the guards in the mansion with expressionless faces, and then gathered his doubts and walked into the Dingwang Mansion with his head held high.

Compared with Xia Fu, who often came to the mansion, Xie Yaoguang followed Ye Linchen more familiarly. When she walked to the main hall of the mansion, Xie Yaoguang was originally sitting opposite Ye Linchen according to her previous habits, but this would take into account Xia Fu's presence, so she could only sit on Ye Linchen's left hand.

After the young general served the tea, he withdrew. Only the three of them were left in the main hall, drinking tea each.

Xie Yaoguang, who was holding the tea, opened his lips and blew away the rising white mist after taking a sip, he couldn't help frowning and putting the tea down.

Seeing her like this, Ye Linchen picked up the teacup she had just used, took a sip and teased, "How long have you not drunk tea?" is so anxious, and only you can drink such hot tea. ”

“…… Who let His Highness come down so late? The words fell to his ears, Xie Yaoguang swept Ye Linchen's eyes, hooked his lips, and chuckled, "I've waited so long." Now you can't even let me drink a sip of tea! ”

Xia Fu, who was already stunned, was even more speechless in surprise when he saw such a scene in front of him, and his eyes stared directly at the cup in front of Ye Linchen that should have belonged to Xie Yaoguang. How could he not know that His Royal Highness King Dingwang was so close to this Xie Yaoguang, and he had actually reached the point of sharing a cup? And looking at Xie Yaoguang's attitude, it seems that he has become accustomed to this matter......

"It's mine, no, don't be annoyed." Hearing this, Ye Linchen smiled at her, and his tone was very soft.

After being stunned, Xia Fu coughed lightly a few times, and the two of them realized that Xia Fu was still here. Xie Yaoguang immediately looked away, taking the opportunity to hide the unnaturalness on his face. As for Ye Linchen holding the tea, it was still the cup that Xie Yaoguang had just used. Originally, Xia Fu wanted to remind him, but after careful consideration for a while, he still dispelled this idea.

The conversation gets back to business.

Seeing Xia Fu take out a stack of letterheads from his sleeve, he handed them all to Ye Linchen and motioned for him to open them and take a look. Looking at Xia Fu's movements, Xie Yaoguang narrowed her eyes and thought about it, if she guessed correctly, it should be all about Chang's liquidation.

"Your Highness, it is now the people of the Xue family who are presiding over the supervision of Chang's liquidation. The minister has nowhere to intervene, so I have to get these few pieces of information in the hope that it can be helpful to you. Xia Fu blamed himself in his tone.

"This king originally thought that his father would not agree to the establishment of Chang Ping, but he didn't expect them to succeed. What is the good thing about this Chang liquidation? Ye Linchen, who remembered the previous scene in the court, showed annoyance, slapped the table case angrily, and said in a deep voice: "At that time, this king should fight with King Shou on the basis of reason, and try his best to delay this matter." ”

Hearing this, Xie Yaoguang lowered his eyes to hide the emotions in his eyes. Sure enough, as she imagined, Emperor Li still decided to set up a Chang Ping, but this Chang Ping may not be called Chang Ping, it should be called Xue Jiacang. Thinking of this, Xie Yaoguang laughed, "Your Highness, at that time, Your Majesty's mind has been decided. If you argue with him, I'm afraid you won't get any good results. Taking a step back, even if Your Highness succeeds in preventing Your Majesty from setting up a Chang Ping position, what about the future? Shou Wang Shi's plan is not good, and there will be other names to replace Chang in the future. ”

"Miss Xie means that she doesn't care about it! Do you let the Xue family do anything wrong in this matter?" Hearing her say this, Xia Fu really couldn't stand it and wanted to argue with her.

"Of course not, does Your Highness have a map to lend me?"

Seeing this, Ye Linchen nodded, and immediately ordered someone to take the map and bring a pen and paper along the way. After getting the map, Xie Yaoguang took the pen and drew a sketch of the Yellow River Basin on the paper, and carefully annotated them one by one with a red pen.

Looking at the Yellow River flow map formed with Xie Yaoguang's movements, Xia Fu couldn't help but admire her.

After the painting was completed, Xie Yaoguang put down his pen and looked at Ye Linchen and said, "Your Highness, please see the comparison between my picture and the map." The Changping positions set up by the Xue family were all near the Yellow River Valley, and each of them could be connected together and finally form a line that went straight to the Xue family's hometown. At least on the surface, it seems that Chang Ping was set up to prevent floods and famine caused by the yellow flood, but inside it was a small treasury of the Xue family. As long as the flooding of the Yellow River is not eliminated for one day, there will be endless troubles in the future. ”

Xia Fu, who is the head of the household department, naturally knows that what Xie Yaoguang said is not the truth. Despite this, he still couldn't help but refute, "But the water of the Yellow River floods every year and changes course every year. These are not the only places that have been afflicted. But the Xue family can reap a lot of benefits from here, and it is the people of the Yellow River who are suffering after all. ”

"Where have there been no rats in all dynasties, can you kill a rat, can you kill all the rats in the world? If you want to strangle the Xue family, you can only avoid the suffering of the people by cutting off their way. Ye Linchen, who was listening on the side, couldn't help but reply.

When the words fell, Xie Yaoguang looked at Ye Linchen with approval, and the smile in his eyes could not be hidden. Her Linchen brother finally became what she expected, or maybe he should have been such a person, he was just a pearl in the dust.

There are so many rats in the world, even if you kill one, there are still countless rats hiding under the dark tide. If you want to get rid of them all, you will inevitably break your bones. Even if it is a river of blood, it may not be able to achieve what he wants, so if he wants to do practical things, he must give up his reputation and feed the people as a rat like Lu Huan. If you don't want to do this, then the other way is to cut it off at the source, so that there is no one left in the nest, and there is no other way.

It's just that there are very few people who are willing to give up their innocent reputation and are willing to win for the country throughout the ages.
