After Ye Qing left, Zhao Xing, who returned to the main hall, summoned Han Cheng and Zhao Ruyu, but did not summon Wang Huai. Such a move appeared on Zhao Xing, who had not been concerned about the government for two years, but seemed a bit unusual.

Naturally, such actions made the many officials who welcomed Ye Qing today start to smell a slight slight uneasy.

Whether Ye Qing was in Lin'an or in Yangzhou before, although his official position and influence had not reached the level of importance, over the years, officials in the court have summarized some rules about Ye Qing's broom star, that is, as long as Ye Qing suddenly returns to Lin'an from other places, something big will inevitably happen in Lin'an.

Especially when I returned to Lin'an and what happened in Lin'an after the recent trip, it still remembers it fresh in many officials, and it even has a little secret.

The death of the Supreme Emperor, the death of King Xin, and Shi Hao's loss of power were all related to Ye Qing's hurry back to Lin'an. This time, Ye Qing recovered the northern land and led 5,000 elite cavalry back to Lin'an, which forced others to guess what earth-shaking things would happen in Lin'an this time.

Ye Qing, who came out of the palace, led two hundred personal troops, as well as Mo Xiaobao and Zhong Can, and walked towards the direction of the prince's mansion with great fanfare. Obviously, he intended to let more people know how close the relationship between Ye Qing and the prince was.

As for the Hua family army, they did not follow Ye Qing and others into the city. Instead, after reaching the shore, they immediately went to the barracks of the Imperial City Division, which had been abandoned by Wang Huai.

It was still far from the Prince's Mansion, but Zuo Yu and Zuo Jiao couldn't wait to take Ye Qing to the palace. After just removing their armor, they went straight to the Prince's Mansion and told the Prince and Princess.

Whether it was the crown prince or the crown princess, when listening to Zuo Yu's report, they also saw inexplicable surprises and excitement in each other's eyes.

Zhao Ruyu had said before that when Ye Qing returned to Lin'an, he would never come to the Prince's Mansion to visit immediately. He even said that Ye Qing is no longer the same as before, and the Prince's Mansion may no longer be taken seriously by Ye Qing, who can be granted the title of Duke.

But obviously, Zhao Ruyu underestimated Ye Qing's "gratitude". Of course, Zhao Ruyu's words meant to provoke the relationship between the prince's mansion and Ye Qing.

As soon as he jumped off the horse's back, he saw the prince and princess who were waiting at the door of the mansion.

After a warm greeting, Ye Qing's gaze was on Li Fengniang, and she stayed for longer than she stayed on the prince.

Li Fengniang is the same. While sneaking at Ye Qing from time to time, her eyes always have tender and affectionate emotions.

Wang Huai wanted to summon Ye Qing back to Lin'an, and even did not hesitate to use the throne of the emperor to abdicate and convince the prince's mansion to come forward and issue an edict to recall Ye Qing at the same time.

But the performance of the Prince's Mansion was completely beyond Wang Huai's expectations. He never gave Ye Qing a single word of decree in the name of the Prince's Mansion, which prevented Wang Huai's plan from being ruined in advance.

"The general returns after his victory, I am going to congratulate you." The main door, which is basically never opened in the main hall, was also opened because of Ye Qing's visit.

"Thank you, Princess, Princess." Ye Qing saluted again, and then sat down under the crown prince.

After some inquiries about the North, Ye Qing always answered questions and answers.

I don’t know whether it was Li Fengniang’s instructor or because Ye Qing, who has returned from victory, has become more and more arrogant, which has made the prince forget the fact that Ye Qing’s resistance to the order is disrespectful. In short, during the long talk, both the prince and Li Fengniang did not mention Ye Qing’s resistance to the order.

Even when the prince was at the dinner prepared for him, even if Zhao Ruyu was invited by the prince, Ye Qing's thoughts were all placed on the British Duke Zhao Kuo who had never been on the road, and Princess Wen'an, the eldest daughter of the prince.

While Qian Xiangzu and Zhao Ruyu were toasting the prince, Li Fengniang turned sideways to Ye Qing: "Look at your eyes again, be careful that I will dig it down for you!"

"If you don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door, how do you know what I'm looking for?" Ye Qing held the wine glass and pretended to drink alone.

"You... are shameless!" Li Fengniang was so choked by Ye Qing's words that she didn't know how to answer for a moment. Then she thought for a while and said hurriedly: "If you want to know the truth, even if you are curious in your heart, you should know the priorities of the matter."

"I'm talking about it?" Ye Qing put down his wine glass, looked straight ahead and whispered: "Today, the emperor summoned me alone, but I still want to thank you for not issuing an order to summon me back to Lin'an. As for what you are thinking about... If you want to know the progress, just look at Wang Huai. As long as Wang Huaiyue loses power, it means you are closer to your goal."

After hearing Ye Qing's words, it was like taking a reassurance. Li Fengniang was finally able to put her heart in her stomach that she had been holding for the past six months.

Compared with two years ago, Li Fengniang has not even changed at all, and is still so charming. Of course, perhaps because of being a mother, Li Fengniang's hostility seemed much weaker at this time, but the charm of a mature woman was even more prosperous in the past.

In Li Fengniang's eyes, Ye Qing had undergone earth-shaking changes. Although his appearance was still the same person back then and had not changed much, the somewhat sinister temperament that he had originally developed in the Imperial City Department seemed to have completely disappeared at this moment.

In her eyes, Ye Qing is still tall, with clear edges and unruly edges. Even the easy-going smile at the corner of her mouth seems to have never changed. But even so, Li Fengniang can still feel it clearly and clearly that Ye Qing has a more general style, calm and wise attitude, which makes her feel that this slander is becoming more and more like a hero.

Whether it was intentional or unintentional, Zhao Ruyu drank two glasses with Ye Qing in disagreement, he brought the topic to the court's subsequent issue of Ye Qing's conferment.

Even the crown prince and Li Fengniang knew that the promotion of Ye Qing's title was much more difficult than the promotion of other people's titles, so from beginning to end, Li Fengniang and the crown prince never mentioned this matter before Ye Qing.

But when Zhao Ruyu mentioned it, his ears were very soft and his unintentional prince instantly turned his eyes to Li Fengniang with help.

Li Fengniang shook her head slightly at the prince and smiled, indicating that he didn't have to speak, just watch quietly.

"Oh, I wonder what Duke Yi taught me?" Ye Qing asked, specifically named Zhao Ruyu's title.

"How dare?" Zhao Ruyu sneered. His prejudices towards Ye Qing were no less than Shi Miyuan. If Ye Qing had not intervened in saving Princess Xin in the case of Jiankang, Zhao Ruyu would have been able to perfectly take revenge on Princess Xin.

But it was precisely because of Ye Qing's intervention that Zhao Ruyu has always believed that until now, the grudge between him and King Xin was only half resolved.

Although he knew very well that with the death of King Xin Zhao Yu, it would be impossible for him to still want to cleanse the insults that King Xin had given him back then, but it was precisely because of this, especially when Zhong Qing suddenly appeared in front of him, Zhao Ruyu a few days ago, that made Zhao Ruyu involuntarily remember the remaining grievances on Ye Qing.

"I just think that it should be natural for the court to promote you to Duke of the State with Lord Ye, with your current military achievements, and..." Zhao Ruyu looked at Ye Qing and sneered again and said, "After the Lord summoned you today, he also summoned me."

"So what?" Ye Qing changed the wine at hand to tea, took a sip and asked with a calm smile.

Zhao Ruyu was shocked by his unmarked expression and no sign of nervousness or imperativeness.

I thought that I had also been summoned by the Lord of the Lord today, and just mentioned the matter of Duke, which was enough for Ye Qing to realize that the Lord of the Lord summoned him to discuss his promotion to Ye Qing.

But seeing that Ye Qing's matter was not about him and without any excitement or impatience, Zhao Ruyu even doubted that what the emperor told him today had never asked Ye Qing what kind of title was false or lied to him!

"You don't want to know how the emperor promoted you? What title will he give you?" Zhao Ruyu simply pointed it out and said.

"Whether it is a duke or a county duke, for me, Ye Qing, it is all the emperor's favor and the emperor's favor. No matter which one, I, Ye Qing, feel ashamed of me... I wish I could drive the Jin people out of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun and then be favored by the emperor." Ye Qing said nonsense with a loyal face.

Li Fengniang looked at Ye Qing's face and felt goosebumps all over her body. How disgusting it would be? How could he say so righteously if such shamelessly!

"Mr. Ye is worthy of being noble and noble, but today I am lucky enough to celebrate Lord Ye's triumphant return in the residence of His Royal Highness. Zhao can reveal a hint of whisper to Lord Ye..." Zhao Ruyu slowly picked up the wine glass and pointed at Ye Qing.

Before he could finish his words, the prince who seemed to be fascinated by the story asked anxiously: "Duke Yi, tell me, what is the title of Ye Qing when his father was promoted to Ye Qing? If this matter has been decided, wouldn't it be a two-day happiness today? Ye Qing must drink a few more drinks today."

Ye Qing, who was originally holding tea, had to helplessly pick up the wine glass again as the prince said, shook the void with Zhao Ruyu, and then drank it all in one go.

"If nothing unexpected happens, Lord Ye may have been promoted to Duke of Lu in the near future!" Zhao Ruyu said with a gloating smile.

"Duke of Lu?" The prince was startled and looked at Li Fengniang with a conditioned reflex, and then looked at Qian Xiangzu.

Li Fengniang couldn't help but frowned slightly when she heard Zhao Ruyu's words. At the same time, she also saw that when Zhao Ruyu said the three words "Duke of Lu", Ye Qing's brows also frowned tightly.

Seeing Ye Qing finally frowning, no longer as calm as he had just shown, and as calm as he was, Zhao Ruyu felt happy.

Duke of Lu, what does this mean for Ye Qing? It means that the scholar of a scholar led by Zhu Xi in the world will never let him go, and will never want to see such a sage title given to Ye Qing, who entered the official career from the Imperial City Office.
