It is impossible to tell the old lady about the imminent drastic changes in the capital, after all, Li Xin can't tell her directly, your son may die soon.

Therefore, Li Xin briefly comforted the Queen Mother in Kunde Palace, and made up a reasonable lie to round this matter.

After spending most of the time in Kunde Palace, Li Xin finally left, and when he left, he also took away a lot of snacks in the palace that the old lady had given him.

In this way, Li Xin smoothly left the imperial city and returned to the Jing'an Hou Mansion in Yongle Fang.

Today's Jing'an Hou Mansion is a lot deserted, not only Li Xin's family is not very small, but even Chen Sixteen's wife and children are not in the capital, and there are only about 100 people left, who are responsible for daily sprinkling and cleaning.

After returning to the Hou Mansion, Li Xin wrote a letter in the study and handed it to Chen Sixteen, asking him to find a way to send it out.

However, at this time, most of the actions of the Marquis of Jing'an Mansion will be watched by the imperial court, so you should also pay great attention to sending letters at this time, because it is likely that if you are not careful, you will chase the people of the imperial court to the place where the eldest princess and others are, and they will be captured.

However, Chen Sixteen has always been a steady person, when he followed Li Xin, he was still a sixteen-year-old young man, and now more than ten years have passed, he has also stood up in recent years, and even became the most stable person by Li Xin's side.

As long as it is the matter entrusted to him by Li Xin, he can basically handle it well.

With only one arm left, he helped Li Xin no less than Shen Gang, who was busy in the dark.

Because he hadn't had much rest for many days, after writing the letter, Li Xin went back to his room and slept well.

When he woke up, it was already the next morning, he finished standing in the courtyard as usual, then changed into civilian clothes, did not ride a horse or a car, and left the Jing'an Hou Mansion on foot.

Although he was being watched secretly at this time, his freedom of movement was not restricted, so theoretically, he could go wherever he wanted.

However, people who are too sensitive still can't be seen, such as Hou Jingde, who is now in charge of the forbidden army.

Li Xin had no intention of meeting him.

He walked away from Yongle Fang and arrived at Willow Square near Yongle Fang.

Although Liushufang is not as expensive as Yongle Fang, and the land price is slightly inferior to Yonglefang, the liveliness of Liushufang and Mingde Fang is definitely the most fireworks place in the capital.

Li Xinlai came to Liushufang because the fourth master of the Ye family, the Ningling Marquis Mansion of Ningling Marquis Ye Luan, is in Liushufang.

Now Ye Lan is probably separated from the Ye family, after all, he also has a marquis to pass on, it is impossible to live in Chen Guogong's mansion for the rest of his life, the old man's meaning before his death is also to let him move out as soon as possible, after the old man left, he moved to the Ningling Marquis Mansion in Liushufang, and now he has a position as a military squire in Beijing, but he doesn't take care of things.

This Ningling Marquis Mansion, Li Xin still came, he had a good memory, he found the Hou Mansion very smoothly, and after letting the doorman report, he waited quietly at the door.

Soon, the door of the Ningling Marquis Mansion opened, and Ye Luan, who was dressed in cyan civilian clothes, looked at Li Xin in front of him with wide eyes, surprised and delighted.

"Chang'an, why are you back?"

Li Xin returned to Beijing yesterday, and the itinerary along the way was kept secret, except for the palace, now few people in the capital know the news of Li Xin's return to Beijing, even the Ye family does not know.

Now, Ye Ming, the head of the Ye family, is still in his hometown in Ningling, keeping filial piety to the old man Ye, and Ye Mao, the eldest son of the Ye family, temporarily leads the Zhenbei Army in Northern Xinjiang and confronts the Yuwen tribes.

Today's Ye Lan is no longer the general of Yulin Zhonglang who has just passed the year of establishment more than ten years ago, but the squire of the military department who is not confused, with two long beards, and the whole person looks much calmer.

Old man Ye's four sons, because the second and third old men died in battle, Li Xin only saw two, among which the eldest Ye Ming has a calm and introverted personality, which is very different from Old Man Ye.

On the contrary, this fourth child of the Ye family, whether it is his personality or appearance, is six or seven points similar to Ye Sheng.

Li Xin arched his hand to Ye Lan and said in a deep voice: "I came back yesterday, and after resting for the night, I came over to talk to Senior Brother Ye." ”

Ye Xuan turned sideways to get out of the way, and the two brothers walked into the Ningling Marquis Mansion side by side.

When this Hou Mansion was opened, Li Xin had also been present to celebrate, so it was quite familiar, and the two of them walked all the way to the backyard and sat down in a tea room.

This is not the time to eat, after Ye Lan poured a cup of tea for Li Xin, he sat down opposite Li Xin, he stroked the beard on his chin with one hand, and after drinking a cup of tea with the other hand, he looked up at Li Xin and sighed.

"Last month, I also corresponded with my eldest brother, talking about Chang'an, and my eldest brother said that Chang'an, you may have to stay in the southwest and not return to the capital."

Li Xin also put down the teacup and said with a wry smile: "Don't hide it from Senior Brother, I didn't plan to come back, but I received a private message from the Son of Heaven...... I went back to Beijing to have a look. ”

As he spoke, he looked up at Ye Luan.

"Senior brother, Your Majesty's body...... DID YOU KNOW? ”

He only said half of it, and didn't go on.

"Yes."

Ye Lan nodded and said: "Your Majesty has not been to the court for several months, and according to legend, the dragon is not safe and has contracted a disease. ”

Speaking of this, Ye Lan frowned and said, "But what kind of disease can make Chang'an ...... you Also back from the Southwest? ”

Li Xin didn't continue to talk about this topic, but asked: "As soon as I went to the southwest for a few months, I didn't know any news from the north, how did Ye Mao fight in Jimenguan?" ”

The tactics of the Zhenbei Army against the Yuwen Tribes were personally set by Li Xin when he was in Jizhou City, but later because of the affairs of Hanzhou City, he was not able to implement it in Jimen Pass in person, but Ye Mao took over and did it according to his plan.

Now, more than half a year has passed, and Li Xin is also very concerned about things in the north.

"Ye Mao played quite well."

Ye Xuan opened his mouth and said: "After the destruction of the Yuwen Futu Department, the Zhenbei Army and the Yuwen Zhao Department each occupied half of the territory of the Futu Department, and after that, as Chang'an expected, Yuwen Zhao really repented and did not admit it, and clashed with the Zhenbei Army many times, wanting to take away all the spheres of influence of the Futu Department. ”

"The two sides have fought a few battles, and they have won and lost each other, because the Zhenbei Army lacks cavalry, and it is not good to fight with Yuwen Zhao in the grassland, so Ye Mao has already led people back to Jimen Pass."

Speaking of this, Ye Xuan paused.

"However, Yuwen Zhaobu also paid the price."

Li Xin pondered for a while, and then continued to ask, "Is there any movement over there in Yunzhou City?" ”

"Yes."

After Ye Lan took a sip of tea, he said in a deep voice: "The Seed Family fought with the Begging Department again, and many people died in the Seed Family, but the Begging Department was almost crippled, and the Yuwen Fourth Department can be said to be only two left." ”

Marquis Jing'an nodded.

"Sure enough, it is impossible for a breeder who has not had military exploits for decades to give up this opportunity."

The reason why the Seed Family and the Qigui Department fought so fiercely was largely because the actions of the Zhenbei Army made them see the opportunity, and the Seed Family, which had not been in the limelight for decades, needed such a big victory to save their status as the first general of the Great Jin.

The two brothers chatted for a while about the situation in the north, and after Ye Lu poured Li Xin a cup of tea, he suddenly glanced at Li Xin and asked.

"Chang'an, you suddenly returned to Beijing......"

"In the capital, is something going to happen?"
