In history, Ningzong Zhao Kuo was not very good at political affairs in the court, and it was not an exaggeration to describe it as mediocre.

But even such a person is still a very studious and principled person. Although he is good at obeying the opinions of other ministers, he has no opinion on the affairs of the court most of the time.

Although Zhao Kuo from Yujin Garden is only twelve years old and cannot see his keenness and interest in court affairs for the time being, no matter what, at least his every move is now, such as the Emperor of Heaven and Emperor would have to be stronger back then.

However, when Ye Qing talked to Zhao Kuo, he would also think from time to time why the Supreme Emperor Zhao Sheng intended to make King Qing's son the crown prince.

In general, in the casual conversation in Yujin Garden, Ye Qing could still feel that Zhao Kuo would always reveal his rigid and stubborn side, which should be due to Li Fengniang's teachings, thus appearing on his body.

Ye Qing also understood why at this time, Zhao Kuo suddenly asked Zhu Xi and others to accompany him to study. Obviously, all the knowledge Li Fengniang taught him now was at least not enough at this time, which forced him to ask for advice on books or these gentlemen whom he respected quite.

"Is war cruel?" Zhao Kuo sat down in the corridor pavilion, and then signaled Ye Qing to sit down. Compared to the stranger who had just relaxed together, Zhao Kuo, who gradually became familiar with him, his expression at this moment had a slightly more agility and immature appearance that a young man should have, instead of being an old-fashioned person.

"War is naturally cruel, because it will really kill people." Ye Qing smiled and continued, "But if I ask me to say that I think the court is more cruel, even more cruel than the battlefield."

"Why?" Zhao Kuo widened his eyes and asked in disbelief.

After a short contact, he found that Ye Qing in front of him was not as bad as the ministers said in the past few days, but not as good as his mother said. But no matter what, Zhao Kuo still felt that although this person was easy-going to him, he would occasionally reveal the kind of demeanor that made him feel uneasy. Whenever such thoughts arose, some impeachment words from ministers to him, Ye Qing would always appear in his mind.

In Zhao Kuo's mind, heroes, slander ministers, etc., the impression of Zhao Kuo is probably that Ye Qing's image, and every move will give people an inexplicable power.

"Because the swords and guns on the battlefield can be seen, and the swords and guns on the court are invisible. A word, an action, or even an idea can kill people. There are many interests in the court. When submitting the memorial, no one knows whether his words and lines are loyal, in addition to loyalty, and all this requires the prince to judge alone, and it is not just to read the memorial." Ye Qing was not polite. After all, Zhao Kuo is different from outsiders. No matter whether there is or not, he feels necessary at this moment. When Li Fengniang is impatient to push him to the forefront, he will give the future king in front of him some good words he thinks.

But Ye Qing didn't know whether the prince would listen or whether he could listen. Besides, that was not something he could control. But since there was this opportunity in front of him, he naturally didn't want to give up.

"Mr. Ye's words are me... I will remember them." Zhao Kuo replied very appropriately.

, but no one knows if he really made it in.

However, since entering Yujin Garden, Zhao Kuo did not ask Ye Qing why he did not submit a memorial to persuade the emperor to abdicate.

As Wei Jing and others came not far from the two, some court officials were already waiting in Yanhe Hall to meet the prince, Zhao Kuo stood up and saluted Ye Qing and left.

Seeing the young man slowly leaving surrounded by everyone, the smile on Ye Qing's mouth gradually disappeared, and a hint of worry slowly came to his heart.

Zhao Kuo is obviously still an ignorant boy. It’s just a short contact. Ye Qing can still feel that the four words "inexperienced in the world" are too obvious in him, just like they are engraved on his forehead, which can make anyone see clearly.

Ye Qing didn't know whether Zhao Kuoyu's court was good or bad, and he was even a little confused. Li Fengniang's method of pulling out the seedlings and helping the growth would ruin Zhao Kuo's life.

Ye Qing, who walked out of Yujin Garden, did not go to see Li Fengniang, and Li Fengniang did not send anyone to summon him to meet him, but Zhu Ye'er was waiting for Ye Qing at He Ning's gate.

Looking at the pretty Zhu Yeer wearing palace outfit and standing gracefully not far from He Ning Gate, Ye Qing slowly walked over.

"Mr. Ye, the queen asked me to ask you, want to know what you think of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Zhu Yeer in the palace was much more confident and calmer than Zhu Yeer in the Ye Mansion. Although he was a little embarrassed when facing Ye Qing's easy-going smile, he was already very relaxed and relaxed compared to his appearance in the Ye Mansion.

"Is my opinion important to the queen now? Now it's an arrow on the string and there is no way out. Tell the queen that you should give His Highness some freedom and relaxation on weekdays, or this can make her a satisfactory prince and a qualified king to the Song court." Ye Qing said with some emotion in his heart.

"I will definitely convey the words of Lord Ye. By the way, Lord Ye, the queen asks me to tell you that you will be ready for the north in a few days. In a few days, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager will return to the palace. So Lord Ye..." Zhu Ye'er naturally knew what the queen's words mean, but for some reason she was unable to say it.

Ye Qing smiled indifferently, looked back at the palace behind him, and said, "Tell the queen, I already understand what she means. After I go back today, I will always be ready to go north and go to the court. Since I promised that she would not interfere, I would not break my promise."

"Master Ye..." Zhu Ye'er looked at Ye Qing who was about to leave, looked at Ye Qing hesitantly and swearing and said, "Master Ye, you... are you... really not worried about Your Highness the Crown Prince? Or are you really not worried about Your Highness the Crown Prince holding a grudge against you? Maybe... maybe Ye'er can help you so that Your Highness the Crown Prince won't hold a grudge against you."

Looking at Zhu Ye'er who was a little nervous, Ye Qing couldn't help but feel moved. Compared to Li Fengniang, she cared more about her own power. Zhu Ye'er in front of her now seemed to be thinking more about him.

"The last time you forged an imperial edict, the queen should have known it, but because it was related to the Supreme Emperor, the queen did not pursue it. And in Xingyuan, the queen created opportunities for you and me..." Ye Qing looked at Zhu Ye'er's cheeks that had become pale in an instant, held Zhu Ye'er's shoulders with both hands, and said sincerely: "I know what I know,

You are not allowed to take action without authorization. Otherwise, the consequences... Do you know the queen's character more than me?"

"Ye'er...Ye'er just wants to help Lord Ye, and doesn't want to see the prince resentment of Lord Ye in his heart..." Zhu Ye'er lowered her head and said with a little daring to look at Ye Qing's eyes.

Ye Qing could have imagined that since Zhu Ye'er forged the imperial edict that night, this method that has not been discovered by anyone will naturally become Zhu Ye'er's only choice.

Although Ye Qing didn't know how Zhu Yeer would help him, Ye Qing knew that once Zhu Yeer helped him was discovered by Li Fengniang, it would not be difficult to use Li Fengniang's methods and current power to make Zhu Yeer silently disappear from the palace.

What's more, now, with her relationship with Zhu Yeer, as long as she can stay with Li Fengniang, it will be a matter of more benefits than disadvantages for herself. If Zhu Yeer takes risks again, Ye Qing is afraid that it will harm Zhu Yeer. This will obviously have greater disadvantages for him who is about to go to the north.

Listening to Ye Qing's explanation, Zhu Ye'er nodded silently. Although she felt a little worried, her originally frowning brows slightly relieved.

"Ye'er listens to your instructions, sir." Zhu Ye'er said obediently, and her heart was also moved by Ye Qing's concern for her own safety.

"As long as you have nothing to do in the palace, everything still has variables. The prince is only twelve years old now, so some things should not be realized now. And as time goes by, when the prince gets older, he will probably understand some things today." Ye Qing still has great confidence in the prince. After all, the prince is still too young now, and even if he tells him some things, he may not be able to understand them at this age.

Every age group should have what each age group should do. Zhao Kuo should have grown up carefreely, but now that young and mature style has been set by Li Fengniang. So when Ye Qing saw Zhao Kuo, the two of his own in Yangzhou would appear in his mind. They were still heartless and only became angry every day.

So for Ye Qing, he believed that he would have the opportunity to contact the prince in the future. Once the north is truly stable and everything can be clamored for the direction he expected, then everything will still have a chance to correct it.

What's more, if we could convince the court to move the capital at that time, everything would be under his control of Ye Qing.

Of course, this process will be very difficult next, and it may even be impossible for him to do it at all, but to this point he has to continue to follow this road.

After returning to the mansion, Zhong Qing came to the front immediately, and Ye Qing obviously had no intention of hiding it. He told Zhong Qing one by one about Li Fengniang's agreement that he could go north soon.

Zhong Qing, who had become a little lost in an instant, began to feel reluctance to Lin'an.
