Chapter 736 Dali Temple

Although Lu Zujian has been injured in the Xinwang Mansion more than two years ago, although he still holds the position of Minister of Dali Temple, he has never been to Dali Temple for 365 days a year and 360 days.

With the departure of Ye Qing, Hong Zun and others, the left and right Shaoqing also became Meng Zongzheng and Hu Zaixing at that time.

Just like Ye Qing's current personal general Jia She, Meng Zongzheng, is also a typical representative of a father who relies on his son.

There may not be many people who know about Meng Zongzheng, but only know that his father was also a general under Yue Fei back then, but when it comes to his son Meng Gong, everyone knows it.

Dali Temple is like a platform for military transfer to civil servants specially set up for famous generals. From Yu Yunwen to Ye Qing, to Meng Zongzheng and Hu Zaixing, without exception, these people are all military generals, but they have all been deprived of military power and then transferred to civil servants of Dali Temple.

Meng Zongzheng and Hu Zaixing are now the two of them who are sent to Dali Temple. During the days when Lu Zujian was away, they have always been in charge of all the affairs of Dali Temple.

Moreover, the two may be because they were both military generals and had only half a year apart to arrive at Dali Temple, which made them quite close, and their relationship became extremely good in the past two years.

When Liang Xing brought these two people to the Imperial City Department, Ye Qing had just read all the information about them, as well as the letters from the head of Li San and Lao Liu to him.

The content is very simple. There is no doubt that at this moment when the court is about to change its appearance, Lu Zujian obviously cannot continue to serve as the minister of Dali Temple. The one who recommended Ye Qing or issued a death order was to let Ye Qingbao, one of the two men, serve as the minister of Dali Temple.

Compared to Ye Qing's "superficial" approach to the monarch and ministers, the military generals led by Yue Fei, including Meng Zongzheng, who is now sitting in front of Ye Qing's eyes, Hu Zaixing, both have deep understanding and compliance with the monarch and ministers' ways, so this also shackles them. Even if they are dissatisfied with the court, deep in their hearts, they are still loyal to the imperial power.

The struggle between colleagues in the court was obviously incomparable with rebellion and rebellion. Therefore, in their opinion, Ye Qing's disrespect for the order was more of a tribute to Yue Fei. The facts also proved that the effect of disrespect for the order was obvious. The recovery of the four routes of the North also gave Ye Qing a greater influence among the generals who were not very proud of the career.

Even compared to the Han family, which can be called a general now, Ye Qing's influence alone has gradually become no less.

So as Shi Miyuan said yesterday, there was a disagreement about the four routes in the court, Meng Zongzheng and Hu Zaixing, even if they did not ask Ye Qing for help, they would speak for Ye Qing from the standpoint of military generals in the court.

However, Ye Qing was not very interested in knowing about these things. For him, the process was always boring. What he valued more was what kind of results would be achieved in the court because of Wang Huai's remarks in the future.

Although Han Cheng did not make any statement on this incident, in the eyes of Meng Zongzheng and others, Han Cheng's attitude was obviously more inclined to Ye Qing's contribution rather than to erase it all. He did not think that regaining the Four Norths was a disadvantage or not to the court.

"Han Cheng is a military general after all. Even now, he still has to consider the issue from the standpoint of the military general. No matter what, Han Cheng knows that if he wants to stand in the court and become the left prime minister, what he can rely on now is us military generals. Although his voice is not as loud as that of the civil officials, and his influence is not as important as that of the civil officials, Wang Huai has not left much room for Han Cheng to win over others in the past few years. Everything..." Ye Qing smiled, and then sighed: "When Han Cheng truly takes the position of the left prime minister, perhaps the military general will not be in his eyes, and will be so valued as it is now."

Meng Zongzheng and Hu Zaixing nodded in agreement. Li Bao and Liu Fu were their father's best friends. They worked together under Marshal Yue back then, so for Meng Zongzheng and Hu Zaixing, they regarded Ye Qing as Yue Fei's remains.

"I heard from my father that Li Bao and Liu Fu have always been under Lord Ye, but since we arrived in Lin'an, we have never had the opportunity to visit us. At that time, I thought, I was probably following you to fight in the north. I remember that I really hoped to follow Lord Ye, and then I could fight on the battlefield with you. Compared to dealing with civil servants every day in Lin'an, the quarrel in the court would be much more enjoyable." Hu Zaixing said with a hint of restraint.

"If you want to see them, it is very convenient. I will let Lao Liang take you there later. You will also make a decision with them. As for Lin'an... Ye Qing's gentle words were light. Although he had been sent to Dali Temple, the time was short and he had basically never been a bad person. But..." Ye Qing's eyes were circling on Meng Zongzheng and Hu Zaixing. After thinking about it, he said: "Both are famous generals who can fight on the battlefield, and I believe they also know the army..."

"Mr. Ye understands what we mean. After we have discussed this matter, we will not refuse each other again. If possible, I hope that Master Ye can help Meng Zongzheng Shaoqing. As for the officials, Dali Temple can continue to assist Brother Meng. If there is a shortage in the Huainan army, it would be even better." Hu Zaixing was more straightforward than Meng Zongzheng, and he was more like a military member.

"Okay, as you said, Ye Qing should do his best." Ye Qing said solemnly.

No matter what purpose it was, he had the need to start building his own party forces in the court, and could not watch Shi Miyuan and Han Tuozhou become stronger and bigger.

Therefore, he was quite optimistic about Meng Zongzheng, who was taciturn and calm in character, served as the Minister of Dali Temple. However, as for whether he could succeed, in addition to himself, he might really need Shi Miyuan's help, or Li Fengniang needed to blow the wind beside the prince's ear.

But...Is Li Fengniang still breeze on the prince now? Will it blow all over her?

Ye Qing was still discussing matters with Meng Zongzheng and Hu Zaixing, while Zhao Kai, the King of Qing, had already prepared for most of the day because of the banquet at Zhao Shicheng's mansion, the Prince of Xin'an.

For almost a whole day, Zhao Kai's attention was spent on the banquet with Ye Qing at the Prince's Mansion in the evening. In his heart, there was nothing now, and it was more important than explaining his original intention to Ye Qing.

Moreover, he has been analyzing in the past few days whether Ye Qing's current weak power in the court and his influence on Huainan East Road is worthy of his actions that seem to be a bit of a big deal.

But in the past few days, no matter how he analyzed it, he felt that whether it was Shi Miyuan or Han Tuozhou, one day, the forces in the court would be suppressed by Ye Qing.

His analysis did not have much reason, but for some reason, he always felt in his heart that if the four routes of the North were no longer captured by the Jin people, then Ye Qing would have a chance to have his own huge power in the court. Even if he was not sent to the court, he would probably not lose his influence in the court at that time.

He has some mentality of leaning on a big tree to enjoy the shade, but this does not prevent King Qing from deeming Ye Qing as his backer who does not attract the prince's suspicion.

I came to Xin'an County Prince's Mansion early. Although there was no obvious change in the mansion, under the light, it can still be seen that in order to invite Ye Qing today, the entire County Prince's Mansion has done a lot of effort to show his grandeur to Ye Qing.

The newly cleaned courtyard, the steps washed with water, the clean and bright doors, and the newly renovated gardens, especially the rooms used as banquets tonight, were not only clean windows, but also the drinking utensils on the table, which were easily taken out by the Prince of Xin'an to entertain guests. It was extremely precious Poli wine utensils in the Song Dynasty.

Looking at the scenes in front of him, King Qing saluted to Zhao Shicheng, the prince of Xin'an, and said sincerely: "Thank you for your hard work for Kai today. If you have the chance in the future, Kai will definitely be..."

"What's the matter? Since Ye Qing agreed, then whether it's because of your affairs or the two of us thank Ye Qing, these are all the right things today, so there is no need to take them to heart." Zhao Shicheng was extremely satisfied with Zhao Kai's gratitude to him and took Zhao Kai into the hall.

From time to time, you can see the maids and the servants running back and forth in a hurry. Even Tang Wan's figure is in a hurry every time she appears.

However, before Zhao Kai could sit in the hall, Tang Wan, who was carefully dressed up, appeared in their sight.

Tang Wan is very beautiful, and this has always been the most proud thing about Zhao Shicheng. Even though he is almost middle-aged now, in Zhao Shicheng's eyes, Tang Wan is still as beautiful as a fairy walking out of the painting when she was traveling in the garden.

Zhao Kai was also stunned for a moment when he looked at Tang Wan in exquisite dress, and then came to his senses and hurriedly picked up the teacup to hide his misconduct just now.

The servant at the door hurriedly ran over to report that after the carriage of Ye's mansion was about to reach the door of the mansion, Zhao Shicheng immediately stood up and walked towards the door with Tang Wan. Zhao Kai also rubbed his hands nervously. When he was about to follow him to welcome him, Tang Wan politely refused and signaled him to wait here.

King Qing, who remembered his identity, smiled and nodded in an instant, and then watched Zhao Shicheng and Tang Wan leave with their servants.

Ye Qing had never been here before, and even Mo Xiaobao, who was driving, came here for the first time, so the two of them took a lot of detours before finally finding the right door.

Before they got off the bus, they saw Zhao Shicheng and his wife standing outside the mansion with a smile, and the servants behind them were standing beside them, waiting for his arrival.

(ps: I must have a cold and feel drowsy.)
