"Mother?" After Ye Zhao left, Liu Bian was about to leave, but he saw Empress He appearing outside the hall with a gloomy expression.

A group of craftsmen quickly bowed their heads and said, "Why is the queen here?"

"What did Wang'er say to Ye Hou before?" He Hou looked at Liu Bian expressionlessly. In Liu Bian's impression, this was the first time that He Hou showed such a demeanor.

"Why did the mother ask this question?" Liu Bian looked at Empress He in confusion.

"Justice Ye did not leave directly just now, but took Ren Hongchang away!" Queen He looked at Liu Bian and said in a deep voice.

"So what? Ren Hongchang didn't know about the matter of the child." Liu Bian looked at He Hou with some confusion.

Queen He closed her eyes in pain and shook her head: "Does my son know that some things do not require evidence. I know that my son is provoked by Zhang Song and others and has the intention to take over power."

"I am the prince of the Han Dynasty. Even if I am no longer the emperor, I am also the king. Why do I only know that there is Ye Zhao in Shu but not the orphan?" Liu Bian looked at Queen He unwillingly and said, "Mother, didn't you say that you also wanted to seize power by yourself?"

"Well Ye Zhao taught me to determine cases and investigate things, but he did not teach me power and tricks. His unofficial heart is so clear. Can't he plan alone?"

"Why don't you even know why he called Ren Hongchang away? How to fight against him?" He Hou shook his head. If Liu Bian had this idea when Ye Zhao first entered Sichuan, she would definitely support it, but now that time has changed, Liu Bian can't see clearly in the situation, but He Hou still has some vision.

Who are Qin Mi, Zhang Song, and Ren An? They are all scholars in Shu. Do they really want to help Liu Bian? These people just want to regain the status of scholars in Shu through Liu Bian. In other words, they have no ability to fight with Ye Zhao at all, and have to join Liu Bian's command, hoping to move to Ye Zhao through Liu Bian.

But three people with no soldiers or power in their hands, and Liu Bian can do it? Maybe some plans are made, but now the general trend in Shu is on Ye Zhao's side. As Liu Bian said, Shu people only know that there is Ye Zhao, but not King Hongnong. It is not enough to hold up the banner of righteousness. At least in Shu, no one will listen to him.

"It's not wrong for my son to have this intention, but my son shouldn't have been exposed so early, so that Ye Hou was guarded!" Queen He looked at Liu Bian and was a little angry at her. It's not that she didn't want to regain power, but that Liu Bian was exposed too early!

"This..." Liu Bian frowned slightly when he heard this. He didn't think so much before, but just wanted Ye Zhao to see his skills: "Mother, what should I do?"

"Severe off your relationship with Zhang Song, Qin Mi, and Ren An. These three people are going to be in trouble!" He Hou sighed.

"But..." Liu Bian felt a little reluctant. This was his only power now.

"Can't you save me?" Liu Bian looked at He Hou and said, "Ye Zhao governed Sichuan with law, and he would not openly break the law!"

"He will have a hundred ways to find the evidence of these three people!" He Hou shook his head: "What my son has to do now is to clear some relationships and confuse Ye Hou's sight."

"How to clear it?" Liu Bian said with his head up.

"My son proposes marriage to the Marquis Ye and marry Ren Hongchang!" Queen He said in a deep voice: "In this way, it can be considered to have an additional relationship with Marquis Ye. This Ren Hongchang is an important step for Ye Zhao to win over the power, and Ye Zhao also attaches great importance to Ren Hongchang."

"Can you change this...can you change it?" Liu Bian was a little worried and reluctant.

Ren Hongchang is the commander of the Nefan Camp. How strong are those women? If one is unhappy and just knead him, Liu Bian feels that his body may be broken. And that woman is almost thirty years old, is a real old woman marrying her?

"Then it's Ma Nanxiang!" He Hou glared.

When Liu Bian heard this, his face turned green and he shook his head quickly. Ren Hongchang was worried that he could not control it, but at least he was a beauty. If it were Ma Nanxiang's words... Liu Bian thought of some scenes and suddenly felt like vomiting.

Queen He frowned and said, "My son should care about how to protect himself now! I will make the decision on this matter and personally serve as a matchmaker for Ren Hongchang. Remember, don't plead for the three of you there!"

Liu Bian was unwilling to accept it, but at this time, Queen He was rarely serious and instinctively afraid, so he could only bow and say, "Leave the Queen of Mother to make the decision."

"You, if you had discussed these things with me earlier, how could this happen today?" He Hou said a little angry. He really didn't know what Zhang Song and those others were saying to Liu Bian, making Liu Bian so eager for quick success.

After saying that, he ignored Liu Bian and left directly. It took three days before he asked someone to go and invite Ye Zhao to come to his house to discuss.

...

"The Empress Dowager summoned the Wei minister, I don't know what important matter?" Ye Zhao looked at Ren Hongchang who was standing beside him with some confusion, and said to Queen He.

"Can Hongchang take off his mask?" Queen He looked at Ren Hongchang and smiled.

Ren Hongchang did not answer, but looked at Ye Zhao.

"Since it is the order of the Empress Dowager, I will do it as I wish." Ye Zhao nodded and said.

"Here!" Ren Hongchang bowed and took off the mask on his face.

Ye Zhao also looked back and said that he hadn't seen Ren Hongchang's true face in more than three years.

It is still as amazing as before. Time seems to have a unique preference for her. The passage of time has not reduced her beauty by half, and it is even more amazing than that of the past. It lacks the youthfulness and innocence of the past, but it has a bit of strength and maturity. It is cold and capable, making people unable to help but feel the desire to conquer.

"I never thought that there was such a peerless beauty around Bian'er!" Even though he was a woman, Empress He couldn't help but be amazed at Ren Hongchang's beauty: "It would be a pity that such a beauty has been imprisoned in the army for ten years."

Ye Zhao looked at Empress He: "The Empress Dowager has something to say, so why not speak out."

Queen He nodded and looked at Ren Hongchang with a smile and said, "I invite the Grand Marshal to come today, and I want to protect a mediator for Hongchang."

"Hongchang?" Ye Zhao raised his eyebrows and looked at Queen He and said, "How could the Empress Dowager have such a good mood?"

"To be honest, I am defending my son's marriage." Hu He smiled and said, "My son has never seen Hongchang's true face, which is shocking. He begged several times, hoping to get the Hongchang girl. Moreover, Hongchang has been following the Taiwei for ten years. He was a stunning beauty, but he fought on the battlefield several times. It's a pity. Moreover, Hongchang is now twenty-seven. Should the Taiwei make Hongchang such a beautiful woman die alone?"

Ye Zhao narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Ren Hongchang and said, "What do you say to Hongchang?"

Ren Hongchang's expression became a little ugly when He Hou said Liu Bian just now. Ye Zhao's words made a trace of despair flash in Ren Hongchang's eyes, and he looked at Ye Zhao deeply and said, "Leave the lord's orders."

Queen He looked at Ye Zhao and smiled and said, "Since Miss Ren doesn't object, I don't know..."

"No." Ye Zhao stood up and helped Ren Hongchang up: "It's really not to be hiding. Hongchang had a promise of old age three years ago. His Highness favored him, which was Hongchang's blessing, but I wanted me to give up my beloved woman. Seeing my lover marrying someone else's wife, I forgive me for being unable to obey my orders."

Ye Zhao turned his head to look at Ren Hongchang and smiled and said, "Three years ago, I asked you if you are willing to marry into the Ye family. You said you need to consider it. I will give you three years. Hongchang, you can almost figure out these three years. Now that the Queen Mother is here, how about you give me an answer?"

Tears slipped from their eyes without competing. Ye Zhao was irreplaceable for the girls in Nefan Camp, and it was also the reason why many girls remained in Nefan Camp and were reluctant to get married. Ye Zhao had a face that conformed to the aesthetics of most women, and had talents and abilities that most men did not have. Most importantly, Ye Zhao had become a spiritual pillar of female soldiers since the battle in the West Garden that year.

For the girls in Nefan Camp, Ye Zhao was a dream that was out of reach but close to him, including Ren Hongchang, Li Shuxiang, Ma Nanxiang and most of the soldiers of Nefan Camp.

But some people can recognize the reality. For example, after Cui'e married Huang Quan, Li Shuxiang also found a family that was willing to accept her. Ji Ling, a general under Ye Zhao, is still in the Nefan Camp, but she is already in a semi-retired state.

But there are also some people who have not given up the slim hope, such as Ren Hongchang, who has been staying in this Nirvana Camp for ten years, just to be closer to Ye Zhao.

Just now, when Ye Zhao asked her, she felt a little desperate. He thought Ye Zhao would give her to Liu Bian. The man who was nearly ten years younger than him and gradually became gloomy from an innocent boy, his heart that was about to die was brought from hell to heaven by Ye Zhao's words.

Even though the will has been as hard as iron after years of hardship, she could not stop the tears in her eyes at this moment. Even if it was just Ye Zhao's words of ruling, it was enough to touch her.

"Will or don't want to? Marrying this marquis really makes Hongchang so painful?" Ye Zhao looked at Ren Hongchang, and suddenly felt a little pity in his heart, and said with a little teasing.

"Hongchang is willing." Ren Hongchang choked and squeezed out this sentence from his throat.

"The Empress Dowager also saw it, and she said she was willing." Ye Zhao looked at Queen He and smiled.

Queen He's chest fluctuated violently several times before she kept the smile on her face from becoming ferocious. Her face was so unscrupulous that she was hit so loudly, but she couldn't have an attack, so she could only grit her teeth and said, "It's because I'm abrupt. I don't know that the Taiwei and Miss Ren still have such a thing...the past."

Reason was on the verge of collapse and his wording became stagnant. She really wanted to curse her, but she really didn't dare to speak up, and she had to greet her with a smile: "Since that's the case, why not come to serve as a matchmaker for Ye Hou and just treat it as Miss Ren's family?"

"The Queen Mother is willing, so I will be blessed. Hongchang, why don't you thank the Queen Mother?" Ye Zhao smiled at Ren Hongchang.

"Hongchang, thank you Empress Dowager!" Ren Hongchang bowed and bowed.
