Chapter 926 Missing a chapter name
Bypassing the screen wall at the door, a faint smell of blood suddenly floated over. Before Ye Qing could frown and ask, Tao Qian walked over with a lantern.
The moon-white outerwear was stained with a lot of blood. The two maids following Tao Qian were pale, and there was a hint of nervousness and panic between their expressions.
"I haven't even let it go here?" Ye Qing asked with a frown.
"There are 27 people in total. Fortunately, the Imperial City Department has cleaned up the body just now." Tao Qian lowered his head and followed Ye Qing's gaze, looked at the blood on his body and the sleeves on his arms that had a lot of blood donation. He smiled and said, "Some minor injuries, maybe it's okay."
"Band it a little bit, so as not to get disabled." Ye Qing's tone was still calm, and Zhong Can, who sent Ye Qing back, walked out without saying a word.
Ye Qing looked back and did not stop Zhong Can. Accompanied by two maids, Tao Qian appeared in front of Ye Qing again.
"Is there anything else?" Ye Qing asked with a slightly tired look on his face.
Tao Qian naturally knew that Ye Qing was busy enough today. He first went to Gushan and then in the Yan family courtyard. He must have suffered more assassins than the mansion to assassinate him, so he didn't talk much nonsense and said directly: "In this alley, at least it can be determined that there are three families related to this group of assassins, so I want to ask, do I want to visit our neighbors tomorrow morning?"
"You are just going to make your own decision, but don't make things too big. It's better to be more peaceful after tonight. Keep your troops in a stable manner and see who will jump out before the dynasty meeting." Ye Qing casually flipped through the tabletop, and there was no new letters about Beidi, etc., so he put down his heart and brewed a pot of tea himself, and talked to Tao Qian in the study while drinking tea.
When it was dawn, Tao Qian stretched his waist. Before he could stand up, he heard something coming from outside, so he casually said to Ye Qing: "You go to rest, I'll go see what's going on."
Ye Qing nodded while yawning. As soon as he walked out of the study and was about to go upstairs, he saw Zhong Jian covered in blood and Zhong Qing, who looked worried and concerned, walking in.
"You...why are you back?" Ye Qing didn't expect Zhong Qing to appear at this time. Logically speaking, she shouldn't be in Gushan, right?
Without waiting for Zhong Qing, who looked at him with concern, he looked up and down and walked up to him. Ye Qing looked at Zhong Can in front of him, and then said, "You are not injured. If you are not injured, go down and have a good sleep. Then in the afternoon, you will go to the Imperial City Commander's Imperial Soldier Camp outside the city. From today on, no one will be allowed to leave the Imperial Soldier Camp without my order."
"But... sir, the mansion..." Zhong Can asked nervously.
"Tonight we will move to the house in Zhonghe Lane. After all, it is closer to the palace. Tao Qian will send someone to clean up the house in a while. You and Jia She will live there too." Ye Qing said.
When Zhong Can heard that he wanted to change the house, he immediately felt relieved. The prince of Tonghuifang's house, except Ye Qing and Zhong Qing, had only a limited number of people to live in, so it was difficult to fully protect the guards. However, if he moved to the big house in Zhonghe Lane, then Zhong Can, Jia She, and even the two hundred personal soldiers, even if they all lived in it, the house would never appear crowded.
When Zhong Qing heard that Ye Qing was about to move to Zhonghe Lane, she volunteered to clean up herself. Ye Qing did not refuse, so she asked Zhong Can to arrange for someone to follow Zhong Qing and Fangfei to go with him. He was like a manager who turned around and fell asleep when he returned to the second floor.
At this time, Zhao Dun, the current emperor who was busy all night and had not waited for Concubine Huang to return to Concubine Huang at this time, saw Li Fengniang coming to Funing Hall again when it was dawn. However, strangely, Concubine Huang, who had left with Li Fengniang last night, lost her trace.
"Where is Concubine Huang?" A bad premonition faintly arose in Zhao Dun's heart.
"Is the emperor thinking about Concubine Huang so much? Isn't he afraid of neglecting other Concubines and Concubine Jie so much?" Li Fengniang smiled sweetly, then signaled to the eunuch next to him, put a wooden box on Zhao Dun, and said lightly: "I think that the emperor shouldn't be so generous to anyone, so I have asked Concubine Dong to come and accompany you to recuperate in Funing Hall."
After saying that, Zhao Dun ignored Zhao, who was confused, bowed slightly after the eunuch put down the wooden box, and left Funing Hall. When she stepped out of Funing Hall, there were crackling sounds and fearful sounds from behind her, as well as the frightened voice of the Supreme Master Zhao Dun.
"Concubine Huang... Queen, you..." Zhao Dun looked at the bloodless head in the wooden box, both familiar and unfamiliar, his face turned pale, and cold sweat instantly covered his forehead. He could not imagine how Concubine Huang... became like this overnight.
A shrill shout sounded from Funing Hall again, and Concubine Dong, who had already walked to the entrance of Funing Hall, suddenly tightened her whole body, and her eyes couldn't help but look at Li Fengniang with a smile in awe.
"Go in and comfort the emperor. The imperial physician will come here in a while. During these days, when Concubine Huang is not here, you can move to the Funing Palace to accompany the emperor. Don't worry and disappoint me." Li Fengniang looked into the distance in the morning and said lightly.
"I will follow the order." Concubine Dong said with a trembling tone.
Li Fengniang glanced at Concubine Dong indifferently, ignoring the sad crying sounds from the current emperor Zhao Dun in Funing Hall behind her, and walked towards her Ciyuan Hall.
Overnight, Li Fengniang finally had no competitors in the palace, and even a person she disliked no longer existed. Now, in her heart, she finally ascended the position of the real queen, and no one dared to disobey her will.
In Tonghuifang, Ye Qing slept until noon. Under the service of the maid, he hurriedly washed up and received an invitation from Shi Miyuan.
In the small courtyard, with Zhong Qing, Fangfei and Tao Qian, he went to Zhonghe Lane, and Zhong Can went to the ban camp outside the city, leaving only Ye Qing and two maids at home.
Sitting under the mulberry tree, looking at the invitation in hand, and standing respectfully in front of him, Ye Qing narrowed his eyes and knocked it for a long time before reaching out to take the invitation and asked, "Has your lord ever asked you to bring something?"
"Reply to Lord Ye, no, the master just told the young man to hand the invitation to the master himself." The servant of the Shi Mansion said respectfully, but he felt a little contempt in his heart.
Originally, he thought that Ye Qing, who could be on par with his family in the court, should have a large mansion, but when he came here today, he found that the gardens of Shi Mansion were not as big as those of Shi Mansion, and even the front yard of Shi Mansion was much larger than here.
Ye Qing nodded and signaled the maid to send the servants of Shi's mansion to leave. Then he sat under the mulberry tree and opened the invitation leisurely. The three words "Yongjin Tower" floated into his eyes immediately, with a smile on the corner of his mouth. He thought about the purpose of Shi Miyuan's banquet tonight, and then walked alone towards the San Aunt's Tavern.
The streets and alleys of Tonghuifang are still as quiet as ever, especially since Ye Qing returned to Lin'an, this street, which should have been bustling, has become what it is now. Every family has a close door and no longer welcomes and sends them like before.
Even though these people don’t know what happened last night, they can probably guess that it must be related to Ye Qing, who had just returned to Lin'an.
Sitting in the secluded corner of Aunt San’s Tavern, drinking by himself. After a while, Meng Gong and Bi Zai met in a hurry. After seeing Ye Qing in the corner, they immediately walked over and sat down opposite him.
"Sir..." Meng Gong and Bi Zaihui looked a little tired. It seemed that last night was also a difficult night for them.
"Is Zhao Ruyu's body still in Dali Temple?" Ye Qing asked while pouring wine for the two of them.
"At this morning, the people from the Ministry of Justice came here early this morning, and the officials personally handed the memorial to the court, but at this time, neither the court nor the palace had any letters yet." Meng Gong said first.
"Don't be anxious, just wait patiently." Ye Qing nodded, then looked at Bi Zaiyu and said, "Are you interested in being the dispatch of the Huainan Road Pacifier?"
Whether it is Bi Zaiyu or Meng Gong, he can be regarded as a descendant of the general. Bi Zaiyu is also burly and is said to have a good martial arts skills, but he has never given up until now.
"Huainan Road?" Meng Gong and Bi Zaiyun asked in unison.
"Yes, in a while, the court should discuss this matter, just a matter of time." Ye Qing picked up the wine glass and signaled to the two of them.
"Xiaguan..." Bi Zaiyu was a little hesitant, looking at Ye Qing who was smiling but silent, and thought for a while and said, "Xiaguan is afraid that he can't take on this important task... If it is Huainan East Road, Xiaguan will naturally be full of confidence, but if it is Huainan Road, lord, you don't have to tell the Xiaguan to understand the subtleties of this, so Xiaguan is still quite worried, afraid that he will let down the expectations of the adults."
Bi Zaiyu is telling the truth. If there is only one Huainan East Road, even though he will face pressure from the court, the pressure is much smaller than that of Huainan East Road, which is combined into one.
Once Huainan East Road is combined into one, the pressure is by no means a simple problem of one plus one equal to two. He is naturally very clear about the dispatch duties of the comforting envoy, and the subtle situation of Huainan Road has become more self-evident to Ye Qing, so if something goes wrong, it will never be a trivial matter.
Ye Qing nodded in agreement and then said, "Now after thinking about it, you are the only ones who can entrust the important tasks. As the minister of Dali Temple, Meng Gong must not take any action at this time. There is also someone in the court to escort Huainan Road. So, this burden... can only be shared by you, Bi Zaiyu and Xiao Zhen."
Bi Zaiyu looked at Meng Gong who agreed and nodded, and then held the wine glass and pondered. Ye Qing and Meng Gong did not interrupt his contemplation, and silently held the wine glass and slowly drank it.
"Sir, please forgive me for taking the liberty, please... Can you tell me what you plan next?" Bi Zaiyu asked after hesitation.
"The most important thing is to safeguard the people in the north, cross the Yellow River, recover the lost land, and avenge the shame of our Song Dynasty." Ye Qing said briefly.
"So the importance of Huainan Road to adults is becoming more and more important. Adults are really relieved to hand over Huainan Road to Xiaguan... Xiaguan... Xiaguan is afraid that he will not be able to answer the adults for a while, so he needs to consider it carefully..." Bi Zaiyu's meticulous thoughts were completely inconsistent with his appearance.
Meng Gong held the wine glass and actually looked at Bi Zaiyu with a serious expression and smiled: "Master Bi is worried about following Lord Ye..."
"It's definitely not like this, it's definitely not like this." Before Meng Gong finished speaking, Bi Zaiyu quickly waved his hand and said, "The lower official has no intention. The lower official wants to think carefully. If the lower official agrees to the lord, whether he can live up to his trust, it's definitely not because he is afraid of offending the other people in the court because of this."
