On the night of September 14, the second year of Shaoxi, Lin'an was destined to be a night without peace. Even the people of Lin'an City could have faintly felt that something big would happen in Lin'an these days.

Since Ye Qing left Lin'an for the first time, or even a little longer, it can be traced back to the conflict on the rainy night of Dawazi that year. The slightly large-scale conflict that has occurred in Lin'an City over the years has nothing to do with Ye Qing's escape.

Whether it was the rainy night of the big tile, the Dali Temple change that Emperor Gaozong experienced, or the major incident of confrontation between two armies at Donghua Gate, they all had a very close relationship with Ye Qing, and most of them happened in the first few days when Ye Qing returned to Lin'an from another place.

It was like finding the rule, so this time Ye Qing returned to Lin'an, whether it was the officials in the court, the people, the literati, etc., almost all of them were speculating on what day the conflict would occur again in Lin'an?

Any event has traces to follow when it comes, but it is a conclusion that can only be drawn after the incident occurs and after the hindsight analysis of the bricks's family.

Then there was a voice of emotion. If someone had done whatever he had done back then, such a thing would not have happened. Such a thing could have been completely avoided. Moreover, judging from the events that happened at that time, as long as someone had a little brain, they could basically completely resolve the matter, and would not have made this matter a turning point in a certain major event later, etc.

In short, the mouth of the bricks can be flexible enough to spread out all the major events that have occurred in history and crush them to tell you very well. The round ones can be said to be square, and the square ones can be oval. In short, the mouth of the bricks is the ancestor of keyboard warriors.

But the fact is that as the authorities, whether it is the people, officials, royal families or relatives, not many of them can keenly detect the extremely obvious signs in the eyes of experts before the incident.

The authorities are confused, the bystanders are clear, and the direction of history has always been like this. The ins and outs of events can be analyzed later, but when the incident is in the process of the incident, no one can guarantee that everything is under its own control and expectations.

After all, if this were the case, there would not be so many people and things in history that make people feel moved, and there would not be so many bricks who read history books and shed tears and worry about the ancients.

Zuo Yu appeared in Ciyuan Hall again, his expression seemed a little nervous and confused.

Li Fengniang's eyes were like a knife and she said coldly: "What's the matter?"

"The Jiahui Sect showed up with unknown soldiers equal to the soldiers led by General Han Tuozhou. General Han shouted at Jiahui Sect for most of the day, but there was no reaction there." Zuo Yu reported truthfully.

Li Fengniang's expression was much more relaxed than before. She nodded silently, and then said lightly: "Go down, protect the palace, and you don't have to ask about anything outside."

As Zuo Yu left, a knowing smile appeared on the corner of Li Fengniang's mouth. It seemed that when the slander went to Gushan today, he did not take his words as a warning. He thought that the slander had been blinded by lust after falling from him. Now it seems that this slanderer has not disappointed me again.

Li Fengniang was sure that there must be silent soldiers at Donghua Gate, confronting the people led by Han Cheng. Whether it is the Jiahui Gate in front or the Donghua Gate in back, these people must be Ye Qing's flower-planting army.

"The person who tied the bell must be untied, so don't worry." In Shi's mansion, Shi Miyuan was not worried about the solemn and tense atmosphere outside. At this moment, he was admiring the words he had just written in the candlelight, and his expression was quite satisfied.

"Sir, haven't you seen anything from it?" Zheng Qingzhi, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, intentionally or unintentionally reminded Shi Miyuan.

Shi Miyuan is extremely cunning and has always been sleek and worldly. Whether in terms of vision or thoughtful thinking, he is much better than Zheng Qingzhi.

But what Zheng Qingzhi didn't understand was why, so far, Shi Miyuan had never extended his power to all armies like Ye Qing and Han Tuozhou. Now in Lin'an City, anyone with a discerning eye could see at a glance that Ye Qing and Han Tuozhou, who held their own military strength, were the real powerful ministers in the court. No matter what kind of battles, they could gain the upper hand and take the initiative with their military power.

But Shi Miyuan has always ignored this powerful weapon of fighting in the court.

Two years ago, Yangzhou Chamber of Commerce was established on the Yangzhou Prefecture of Huainan East Road. In a very short time, Shi Miyuan realized the various huge benefits that the Chamber of Commerce could bring, and then in a very short time, he decisively established the Fujian Chamber of Commerce in Fujian.

From this incident, we can see that Shi Miyuan is definitely not a pedantic person, but a smart person who knows how to adapt and can imitate other people's advantages in a short period of time and then transforms them into his own advantages.

But for some reason, Shi Miyuan has always ignored the military power. Even now, his two potential rivals in the court are important officials and powerful ministers with military power, but Shi Miyuan has never wanted to win over any army to compete with Ye Qing and Han Tuozhou.

Shi Miyuan raised his head, smiled and looked at Zheng Qingzhi who was worried about him, put down the brush in his hand, smiled calmly, and said, "I know what you mean, I am jealous of Ye Qing and Han Tuozhou now have military power, right?"

"Your thoughts are never hidden from you, sir." Zheng Qingzhi said calmly.

"Do you know that since the founding of the Song Dynasty, military generals have never had a good ending? On the contrary, Qin Hui was very guilty at that time? But who would have a better ending than Yue Feilai who was angry and angry, and who would have a worse ending?" Shi Miyuan picked up the teacup and smelled the faint fragrance, and then said: "In the future, Qin Hui will definitely gain a bad reputation for being a thousand years. Yue Fei will definitely enjoy the reputation of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, but... what is the use of these for me now? Throughout the dynasties, we have always liked to write history for the previous dynasty. The founding kings of the previous dynasty have always enjoyed the reputation of being a wise monarch and wise minister, and the wise and wise martial arts, and then died.

The king has always been criticized for being useless, and is a foolish monarch and a mediocre ruler. The reason is nothing more than to tell the people of the world that the previous dynasty was good at first, but later it was bad. The contemporary rulers had to change the world for the sake of the people of the world and the orthodox Chinese, aiming to calm the people and the world, so that the people of the world could not have the idea of ​​reviving the previous dynasty."

Looking at Zheng Qingzhi who didn't quite understand, Shi Miyuan sat down on the chair next to him, holding a teacup and continued, "Seeking through the various historical records before the Western Han Dynasty, you will not find records of Qin Yingzheng burning books and burying scholars, but if you look through the historical records of the Eastern Han Dynasty, you can see more records of Qin Yingzheng's tyranny. So what is true and what is false? Is Qin Yingzheng wise and powerful? And what is the following literati, when he mentions Qin Yingzheng, the word tyranny immediately appears in his mind, but is the truth the same as the records in this historical record? Who is more cruel than the Jin people today? What we have seen and experienced, in the mouths of later generations, may not be the truth they want. The truth is often...the truth is only for the benefit of the rulers."

"This is also learned from Ye Qing. Ye Qing has long known his past affairs and must be notorious, but did he care? He doesn't care, because Yue Fei is an example, so Ye Qing gave up his consideration of his reputation. He cared more about his vital interests when he was alive. As for after death, it's just a piece of loess. What's the point of praise for us?" Shi Miyuan drank tea leisurely, without feeling that his words did not actually help Zheng Qingzhi solve his doubts.

Shi Miyuan naturally had his plans, and his vision was not just in the present. From the fact that he secretly started to arrange the future crown princess himself, it is enough to see that Shi Miyuan has extremely long-term ambitions and plans.

As for why he did not seek military power, he just stood aside and watched Ye Qing, Han Tuozhou and others danced with swords and guns. That was because he had long seen that the Song Dynasty would never allow the two of them to enjoy such great military power at the same time. The reason why they are now in such a situation is just a temporary move by the court.

If he was joining in, Shi Miyuan would guarantee that no one of them would end up well by then. Zhao Ruyu, who had just died in Dali Temple, probably wouldn't die. Now he should lead his troops to capture Ye Qing, Han Tuozhou and himself to sue him.

The Song Dynasty has always emphasized literature and suppressed martial arts. The royal family decided not to forget this instruction that was like the ancestral teachings. The civil officials in the court would not give up this immense power. It was only during this period that the sudden rise of Ye Qing and Han Tuozhou made it seem like a general in the court now appear to rise.

But in fact, if it were included in the entire history of the Song Dynasty, Ye Qing and Han Tuozhou's current power would be at most a small wave that the Song Dynasty accidentally rose up, and there would be a risk of being swallowed by larger waves at any time.

After tonight, one of Ye Qing and Han Tuozhou must have given up his military power because of his interests.

In Shi Miyuan's view, Ye Qing must be the one who has a greater chance of winning tonight. After all, Ye Qing guards the entire northern region. Compared with Han Tuozhou's influence in Ziqi and Luodian, what the court attaches more importance to is the re-invasion of the Jin people in the northern region.

"If I expected, after tonight, Han Tuozhou will become the left prime minister of my Song Dynasty. As for Ye Qing... Humph, I am afraid that he will be driven out of Lin'an. A general like him will never be allowed to stay in the court. So Ye Qing can only continue to take care of my Song Dynasty. And if he is defeated by the Jin people once, Ye Qing will be in a state of doom again. Military power is a double-edged sword, and hurting others and himself. The court should restore the short-term rules of military generals in power, and civil officials will take charge of the court." Shi Miyuan's eyes seemed empty, but he was full of sinister words.

"My lord means... sitting in the mountains and watching the tiger fight, as long as they fight more fiercely... As long as the master keeps controlling the Ministry of Personnel, he will eventually be in the court..." Zheng Qingzhi instantly understood Shi Miyuan's plan, but before he could finish speaking, Shi Miyuan's somewhat unhappy gaze immediately made him swallow the remaining words back into his stomach, and he did not dare to express a word.

However, as Zheng Qingzhi thought about it, he became more and more aware of why Shi Miyuan neither competed nor robbed, and even showed weakness to Han Cheng and his son in the past two years.

It turned out that he had long-term plans and had seen through it. All this today was just a temporary mistake. If you want to gain greater power and be worthy of your ambition, you still need to lay a solid foundation. With such a foundation, there is obviously no place that is more suitable for cultivating party forces than the Ministry of Personnel.

"No matter how good the military power is, we still have to govern civil officials. No one dares to forget the ancestral teachings of our Song Dynasty. Naturally, civil officials in the court will not give up their advantage of stabilizing the military generals. So, let Ye Qing jump around for a while. In the court, the left and right ministers will sooner or later reorganize their rights. Now let them continue to make trouble. The Privy Council will eventually return the power to the Ministry of War. Ye Qing, with the order of a Privy Council, has no great value now. After the Northern Territory was initially regained the four places, the Privy Council was useless. I think Ye Qing had already realized that

This is the question. But now that he wants to continue to seize military power, he must give up his influence on the court. In this way, in a few years, as long as the Privy Council is completely useless, after the Ministry of War won the army of the Song Dynasty, Ye Qing will become a rootless tree again, and his actions in the north will become more and more unjust. At that time, as long as the officials in the court unite to impeach and attack him, let me ask, even if he has a million troops, what is it? Does he really dare to rebel?" Shi Miyuan followed his thoughts and seemed to have some unsatisfactory questions to Zheng Qingzhi.

"If all the northern regions are under Ye Qing's control, and the various local officials are completely controlled by Ye Qing, and the Ministry of Personnel cannot send any official to him, would Ye Qing still be like a vassal king in the northern regions, and no one can stop him?" Zheng Qingzhi asked with the flow.

Shi Miyuan smiled confidently as if he was waiting for this question, and then said with a hint of mystery: "Yan Road! Once the words are connected, does Ye Qing really dare to be right to the people of the world? Under the attacks of the censors, literati, and court officials, is he still able to completely control the North? Do you risk the big trouble in the world? Everything is done by man, the military power belongs to the Ministry of War, the Privy Council is false, and the Privy Council has no right to send a mission, and the court can completely slow down the North.

Ye Qing... Even if he wanted to rebel, now that the Song Dynasty, after the Jin people were not affected by the external troubles of the Jin people, the world would be peaceful and prosperous again. How could the people follow him to rebel? How could the soldiers under his command rebel together with him? In this case, what would be the difference between Ye Qing and the brutal Jin people? Therefore, if Ye Qing wants to live, his only way out is to keep guarding the border for the Song Dynasty and lead troops to fight against the Jin people, so that he can save his life."

"The premise is... Han Tuozhou must give up military power for the position of left prime minister tonight? In this way, you don't need to take action. As the left prime minister, Han Tuozhou will definitely target Ye Qing, who holds military power everywhere, and you can continue to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight, so that the fisherman can benefit?" Zheng Qingzhi's eyes lit up.

"Not bad! Han Tuozhou is too fond of power and greedy for merit. He will never be at peace in the court. He will watch Ye Qing make money alone in the north, because he will be afraid. As Ye Qing's achievements in the north become greater, the more he will be replaced. Therefore, the battle between Han Tuozhou and Ye Qing has just begun tonight!" Shi Miyuan looked at Zheng Qingzhi with some praise as if he had seen the victory in the future.

"When at that time, as long as you put a little force in the court and understand Han Tuozhou once or twice, Ye Qing from the north will inevitably be unable to withstand the pressure of officials from the court. The people of the world regard him as a vassal king. The pressure of heroes will inevitably slowly relax their control over the north. Adults can sit firmly in the Ministry of Personnel and do something and not do something!" When he said excitedly, Zheng Qingzhi even wanted to drink two glasses immediately to celebrate, and he had to admit that Shi Miyuan was the real mantis stalking cicadas. The oriole was behind, and he completely planned Ye Qing and Han Tuozhou.

The maid pushed the door open at the right time and delivered exquisite wine and food. Shi Miyuan pointed to the chair opposite. Zheng Qingzhi was no longer polite. He first poured a glass of Shi Miyuan, and then poured it on himself: "I wish you a lord..."

"You know what I know about tonight, don't let the third person know, do you understand?" Shi Miyuan held the wine glass and said calmly again.

Zheng Qingzhi was shocked and thought that he was too careless just now, and he just wanted to express his loyalty to Shi Miyuan and make gains and losses, but he forgot that after hearing so much, it would arouse Shi Miyuan's suspicion of himself, and...

Zheng Qingzhi was a little afraid to think about it. He couldn't imagine that if Shi Miyuan did not meet his expectations, he would take his anger on him, or if one of Ye Qing and Han Tuozhou, if he had a glimpse of Shi Miyuan's plan, then he... would have become a victim of the three of them openly and secretly fighting, and a scapegoat!

"Don't worry, even if the official dies, he will never dare to reveal a word to anyone tonight's words." Layers of cold sweat appeared on Zheng Qingzhi's forehead, and the thin clothes on his back were completely soaked in cold sweat. After drinking a glass of wine, Zheng Qingzhi felt like he had just turned around in the underworld.

"Ye Qing is definitely not a mediocre person. He is able to climb from a small imperial guard to the high position today, which is his unique uniqueness. Fortunately, after tonight, everything will become clear, and the enemy and me will be clearly divided. No one can easily take advantage of anyone. Tomorrow night, a banquet will be held in Yongjin Tower. It seems that I need to take the initiative to invite him Ye Qing." Shi Miyuan, who was holding the dishes, kept froze in the air, said to Zheng Qingzhi, who was sitting upright on the opposite side.

"It's an adult, I'll do it later. By the way, sir, should I take all the entire Yongjin Tower tomorrow night for you and Ye Qing to reminisce about the past without any disturbance?" Zheng Qingzhi was the Minister of Revenue. When it comes to spending money, he paid attention to the show. I'm afraid that the entire Song Dynasty, except for the royal family, could not be comparable to him.

"Are you looking for death when you play the scene with Ye Qing?" Shi Miyuan said coldly.

The chopsticks in Zheng Qingzhi's hand were scolded by Shi Miyuan, so scared that they couldn't hold them firmly. They fell to the ground with a clatter, saying yes in a submissive way.
Chapter completed!
