Chapter five hundred and twelve talk about wine
Lu Zujian actually looked down on Zhang Dadao, Liu Guangyi and the other two, especially Liu Guangyi's disciple Weng Baoguang, and Lu Zujian even felt a little gloating in his heart.
But even though so many years have passed, Zhang Dadao and Liu Guangyi are still deeply trusted by King Xin. Moreover, when Zhang Dadao returned to the mountain a few days ago, King Xin also wrote a song "Sending Zhang Dadao back to the mountain" for him:
I am free to spend the rest of the world for a day, and I have to make a fuss and say so much to the secluded gate. But I know that it is as hidden as the southern capital, and I am ashamed to move my writing to the northern mountain. I am willing to pity my breeze, and I am unintentionally, the moon will accompany you. If I ask about the news of the Three Mao, I will repay the freedom of heaven and earth.
So no matter how dissatisfied he is in his heart, he will not show it.
Of course, if he could have the opportunity to get rid of these two people without realizing it and make himself the first confidant of King Xin, Lu Zujian would never let such an opportunity be missed in front of him.
In his heart, King Xin should have put the court and the country first. Although he was not appointed by the Supreme Emperor to inherit the throne, he is still deeply appreciated by the emperor. If King Xin still practices both Taoism and Dharma, he may lose the patience of the emperor, and even affects his career and others.
The night gradually enveloped the entire Lin'an City, but even so, for the people of Lin'an, the night was not the end of the day for them, but more like the real beginning of a colorful day.
The lights are on, the wine shops are noisy, the brothels are windy, flowers, snow and moon, and the tile houses are sad and singing, which makes the entire Lin'an City, under the night, have another layer of luxury and romance.
The Crown Princess Li Fengniang personally lit up the candlelight in the room. She looked at the pale man in front of her with beautiful eyes, and said with a light tone with a slight laziness: "How is it? Is it uncomfortable to be betrayed?"
Ye Qing was too lazy to talk to her, so he touched her chest that was slightly painful and said, "The Crown Princess knows a lot, and she can even get news about the court affairs as soon as possible."
"That's because the Japanese palace has entered the palace. Otherwise, I wouldn't know that the person you call a brother is now in the position of deputy commander." Li Fengniang's expression narrowed, but then she returned to her lazy appearance just now. Looking at a hand subconsciously stroking Ye Qing on the injured chest, she continued: "Now it's making me embarrassed. Do you think I can trust you in the future? Or to put it bluntly, do you think you are of use in my eyes? Anyone with discerning eyes can see that after Li Heng was promoted to deputy commander of the Imperial City Department, the next step is to wait for your commander to have an accident and then replace him. So... do you think I should give up and cooperate with Li Heng instead?"
"Since you know that Li Heng was promoted to deputy commander, you must have some understanding of the affairs of the court. The reason why I have not sent it to you in the past two months is because Han Tuozhou, the Minister of War, led his troops to guard Dasan Pass. In the past two years, I am not around, you have made no progress at all. Could it be that I will blame me for all these?" Ye Qing put down his hand that touched his chest, picked up the teacup and said.
"Why might you drink a little?" Li Fengniang looked at the thick night outside the window and suddenly said with interest.
"It's up to you. But you stopped me today, just to drink and drink tea, right? What's the matter?" Ye Qing didn't care whether to drink or drink tea.
"If I hadn't learned that Li Heng was promoted to deputy commander today, would you think I would be willing to stop you here? My kindness is really something you think of as a donkey's liver and lungs? I am worried about you. Can you still control the Imperial City Department in the future? Originally, Xia and Jin have made such great contributions, because Fan Niande's incident fell from others, and I thought I could see your decisive and fierce counterattack. Who would have expected that you were so cowardly, without even a word of refutation, and just let someone hold the shit on your head? This is not the commander of the Imperial City Department I know. It's simply... Humph, let's not talk about it." Li Fengniang scolded him a little angry.
When he came out of the palace today, after learning that Li Heng was promoted to deputy commander, Li Fengniang's first reaction was whether Ye Qing could still control the Imperial City Department, the agreement between him and him, etc., and whether he would be implicated.
"If I tell you, I killed Fan Niande, and Wang Xin and others did not wrong me?" Ye Qing looked at Li Fengniang, who was preparing the palace maids for the wine and food.
"You...you said...you won't...this is true?" Li Fengniang, who sent the palace maid away, turned around and looked at Ye Qing with a calm face, and stuttered: "Is the Imperial City Department really... lawless in your hands?"
Seeing Li Fengniang turning around, shock and a hint of undetectable joy in her eyes, Ye Qing smiled and said, "Isn't it the one who killed someone for you? Isn't the guards in your prince's mansion all the ones from the imperial city? Isn't the transaction between you and me the imperial city? If Li Heng was promoted to deputy commander, I will become a decoration, which only means that you are the princess..."
"What's this palace? Do you want to tell me?" Li Fengniang asked knowingly.
Of course, she could also predict that Ye Qing would definitely say the four words "woman's opinion" without leaving any face to her.
Sure enough, after hearing Ye Qing slowly spit out the four words of a woman's opinion, Li Fengniang just snorted symbolically and protested, and then said as if nothing had happened: "If it was not related to yourself, it would be in chaos. I am afraid that you would implicate me after losing power. By the way, why do you have to kill Fan Niande?"
"Because he is rich." Ye Qing obviously didn't want to bother with this issue. After all, this matter also involves Bai Chun and others. What he said is probably only arousing Li Fengniang's questioning.
Looking at Ye Qing who was unwilling to be entangled on this issue, Li Fengniang curled her lips disdainfully. In Ye Qing's eyes, it looked like Ye Lu Yue's actions were like Ye Lu Yue's sneering, with a hint of naughty and provocation, and more of a desire to conquer and longing for Yelu Yue, far away in the Great Liao Dynasty.
Without noticed that Ye Qing's eyes were full of beastly appearance just now, Li Fengniang signaled the palace maid to put out several exquisite side dishes, then put chopsticks for Ye Qing, poured wine, then looked at Ye Qing and said, "Please, can you be injured in your chest? Can you still let me help you over in person?"
"I can't afford to work hard. I feel like the Hongmen Banquet. Can you tell me something in advance? Otherwise, I won't be able to drink this wine." Ye Qing got up from the chair, walked to Li Fengniang, looked down at the exquisite side dishes on the table, and asked relaxedly.
Before Ye Qing sat down, Li Fengniang sat down opposite him, picked up the wine glass in front of Ye Qing and slapped it at Ye Qing, and then drank it boldly, then said: "Put your carefulness. I want to poison you, so I won't be so blatant. I want to walk out of this mansion alive."
"It's good to know." Ye Qing laughed, watching Li Fengniang fill the glass that she had just drank, and then push it to Ye Qing.
"You just used this wine glass, I used the one you haven't touched..."
"Are you wrong?" Li Fengniang said dissatisfied with her eyes. At this time, she began to pretend to be pure with herself. When she deliberately printed her lips on the teacup and looked at her body, why didn't she see him as gentlemanly?
Ye Qing smiled, and had to pick up the wine glass that Li Fengniang had just drunk and then the two of them drank it all in one go.
"Now everyone knows that the two of you who are making things difficult for you are Uncle Xin Wang and Lu Zujian, the minister of Dali Temple. There are other officials behind it. Although it is not fearful, it is said that the Shijia is also involved. Now that you are back in Lin'an, what you are greeting is not the tsunami of the people of Genshan Gate, nor is it the scene of the emperor personally greeting at the gate of the palace. Instead, they return to the city alone and are almost framed and murder. This has also encouraged some people to stand behind King Xin and Lu Zujian. I want to know, how do you plan to deal with it?" Li Fengniang asked in a serious tone while pouring wine for Ye Qing.
Ye Qing put down the chopsticks in his hand, looked at Li Fengniang who had been sitting down after drinking, and smiled indifferently: "Regularly speaking, you should beat me, the dog that fell into the water at this time. King Xin, Lu Zujian, and Shijia jointly designed to frame me and frame me. Li Heng has been promoted to deputy commander and is always ready to replace me as the commander in the Imperial City Department. I, Ye Qing, is now in danger. The Crown Princess should not have taken the opportunity to take revenge at this time, so why should he help me? This is unreasonable?"
Li Fengniang was not angry, and the chopsticks in her hand were still at her mouth. She looked at Ye Qing quietly and said, "I said that your life belongs to me, Li Fengniang. If you Ye Qing wants your life, you must ask me, Li Fengniang or not. Besides, how could I let you die so easily? If I torture you to death, how can I be worthy of your humiliation to me!"
Ye Qing looked at Li Fengniang with serious expressions and smiled casually. He picked up the wine glass and drank it all. Before he could put the empty wine glass down, Li Fengniang had already stood up and poured wine for him.
"So, you are quite confident in me. Don't believe that I will lose my life under their joint suppression?" Ye Qing asked.
"Although I, Li Fengniang, is a woman, I am not as short-sighted as them! You, Ye Qing, went to the Jin Kingdom to envoy the Jin Kingdom, and even the right prime minister Wei Qi dared not speak in front of the Jin people about the exemption of annual monies. You easily did it. Qi Shi Lie Zhining and you had a grudge against you on the Imperial Street of Lin'an because of your trust in the princess. Many people in the court thought that you were on the Jin Kingdom to have no life and went to the Hall of Yama, but what in the end? The Jin Kingdom exempted me from the annual monies of the Song Dynasty. Qi Shi Lie Zhining died in Wuzhou inexplicably, and could not even find out the cause of death. You could still escape from the Jin Kingdom and even had time to send a mission to the Xia Kingdom for the court halfway. Isn't such a bastard just right? "Li Fengniang said with disdain on the corner of her mouth.
"But I am a minister of the Song Dynasty after all. As the saying goes, "The king asked the minister to die, but the minister had to die." Ye Qing said calmly.
"But the Lord admires you very much. So just relying on King Xin, Lu Zujian wants to fight you. I, Li Fengniang, never believe that they can be better than the Jin people, so I still bet on you."
