If Yan Qingcheng and Liu Qingyan are women who can stand behind Ye Qing and provide Ye Qing with money, materials, etc., then Zhong Qing, who is standing in front of Bai Chun's eyes at this moment, still quietly looking at the moonlight lake, is the woman who can analyze the situation in the court and give advice to Ye Qing.

As for her Bai Chun, since she got closer and closer to Liu Lan'er, she seemed to have found a way to stand behind Ye Qing and provide some help to her husband.

The two women looked at each other and smiled, and then they all looked at the slightly cold moonlight on the lake: "He should be in Lin'an." Zhong Qing turned around, smiled and said.

Bai Chun nodded silently and continued to look at the cold moon on the lake: "Can he be safe?" ”

Zhong Qing was silent, she also knew in her heart that behind Ye Qing, she was not the only woman she cared about, but for some reason, she really liked it, at least she didn't hate the way she got along with Bai Chun and the others now.

"I don't know, but ...... Presumably he can deal with the deceit above the court, he is not a pedantic person, and knows what loyalty and treachery are better than others. Zhong Qing spoke again.

Just like Bai Chun was full of worries, Zhong Qing was also preoccupied, but Bai Chun had been thinking about what had gone wrong with the umbrella, while Zhong Qing had been trying to understand the loyalty in Ye Qing's heart from Ye Qing's point of view.

"Loyal, treacherous?" Bai Chun was stunned for a moment, and was slightly shocked in his heart, now in Ye Qing's situation, where is there still half a loyal minister?

Compared with his father's loyalty to the imperial court, Ye Qing's behavior over the years has been enough to be deposed and exiled to Lingnan more than 100 times by the imperial court.

So she was surprised that Zhong Qing still thought that Ye Qing was a person who was extremely loyal to the Great Song Dynasty.

Although she has already boarded Ye Qing's "thief ship", the word loyalty and treachery have been left behind by her, but now when she hears the words loyalty and treachery, she still feels a little embarrassed in her heart, this world is really a creation and trickery.

Contrary to Bai Chun's expectations, Zhong Qing looked back at her, nodded very seriously, took a deep breath, and then said slowly: "I used to think that he was a traitor and thief who was bought by the Jin people, but in Yangzhou in the past year, what Ye Qing has done can be half a sign of a traitor and a thief?" No, not at all. He has been secretly preparing for the Northern Expedition, even if the imperial court is forcing him to invest in gold and want to make him infamous for treason, but he has always resisted the pressure, trying to survive and prove his loyalty between the attraction of the Jin people and the persecution of the imperial court. ”

Bai Chun also sighed silently, at this time, what she wanted most was to go back to the beginning, when she had just picked up Jinse from Fan Niande's mansion, Ye Qing was just a small capital, although she was not as prominent as she is now, but the two of them didn't have to worry about it, let alone worry about the deceit and secret fighting above the court.

But all this can't go back, again, all because the Emperor Taishang promoted Ye Qing to be the deputy commander of the Imperial City Division, everything began to change, and it became out of anyone's control.

"Loyalty or treachery, as long as this time it can be safe. I don't know what the man is doing now. Bai Chun said melancholy, her mind was still a mess at this time, and the woman's sensitive intuition made her feel that there was always something wrong, but she couldn't figure it out for a while, and she couldn't figure it out what was wrong.

Zhong Qing was surprisingly opposed to Bai Chun's indifference to loyalty and treachery, and said with a smile: "No, Ye Qing is a loyal minister, it's just ...... His loyalty is to his family and country, not to the king. ”

"Family, country, people?" Most of Bai Chun's mind was not on Zhong Qing's words, but when he heard such words, he couldn't help but ask.

Zhong Qing nodded firmly again and said, "Ye Qing once told me that you said that his situation is becoming more and more like Qin Hui, but in my opinion, his situation seems to be as close to Jin as Qin Hui on the surface, but in essence, it is the same as Yue Pengju. Merely...... His strength lies in the fact that he is loyal to his family and country rather than the monarch, and the twelve gold medals can recall Yue Fei, but if this happens to Ye Qing, it will definitely not happen. ”

Zhong Qing slowly sat down in the small corridor pavilion, and after Bai Chun behind him followed up and sat down, he thought about it: "Thinking about it, Ye Qing should have learned the lesson of Yue Fei, and he chose one of the two of being loyal to the monarch and the country, obviously Ye Qing chose the family and the country instead of the minister." Since Yue Fei died in prison on trumped-up charges, won't other generals of the Great Song Dynasty reflect on it? Obviously not, some people will reflect, but more often they are shackled by the way of monarchs and ministers, and they are afraid of being infamous as traitors and thieves. But there are always those who will be loyal to the country rather than the king, as ...... Song Qian, who escorted you to Yangzhou with Allure, the military judge of Sizhou, and even Xin Qiji, who is now in Yangzhou, and Yu Yunwen who is on Lizhou Road, although they are not as thorough as Ye Qing now, I believe that sooner or later, they will become the same loyal family and country as Ye Qing and not the great Song courtiers of the people. ”

"Song Qian?" Bai Chun frowned again, and said in shock: "You know him? ”

Zhong Qing nodded: "The last time I went to the temple outside the city to pray for peace, Song Qian recognized Fang Fei, although I was wearing a light dew, I think he should have guessed my identity...... ”

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Bai Chun suddenly grabbed Zhong Qing's hand and asked nervously and shockedly.

When Song Qian's name came out of Zhong Qing's mouth, at that moment, Bai Chun's mind seemed to suddenly open up, and he figured out the ins and outs of everything at once.

Song Qian...... He...... Is there a problem? Zhong Qing looked at Bai Chun's nervous appearance, and suddenly became nervous.

Bai Chun stood up in a daze, his hand left the back of Zhong Qing's hand, shook his head a little sluggishly, and muttered, "I don't know...... But...... There must be a problem, Song Qian, I ignored him, could it be Li Heng? No, nothing can go wrong with Lan'er...... I'm going to Lin'an. ”

Bai Chun suddenly turned his head, his eyes swept over the calm cold moon reflected on the lake, and said to Zhong Qing, who was also looking at him nervously: "Ignore Song Qian, although I don't know why this is the case, but Song Qian definitely has a problem, these days...... Bai Chun bit his lip with some self-reproach, turned around and ran towards Ye Yuan. ”

Since she and Yan Chengcheng were allowed to go to Yangzhou by the imperial court, and Song Qian escorted the two of them all the way, Bai Chun let the umbrella pay more attention to Ye Qing's body and the Lin'an court.

In her opinion, when Ye Qingyuan returned to Lin'an in the future, the situation he faced was bound to be very dangerous, so for the safety of his husband, Bai Chun had to shift his focus to the palace and Zhao Gou, so he ignored the things in front of him.

It's dark under the light, just like black under the light, not to mention that Song Qian has been following Li Heng, and since Ye Qing left, he was put under his nose in the name of surveillance, but it was precisely because of this that Bai Chun ignored the things that were close at hand!

And just when Bai Chun began to suspect Song Qian, and then wanted to rush back to Lin'an overnight, a carriage carried Song Qian quickly to the mansion of Wei Guogong.

Shi Miyuan walked into the hall impatiently, looked at Song Qian, who was anxiously waiting for him, and asked with a calm face: "Why are you in such a hurry, you can't wait until after tomorrow's court meeting?" ”

Song Qian was stunned for a moment, and then approached Shi Miyuan, looked at the people in the hall, and waited until Shi Miyuan impatiently waved the people away, and after sitting down on the chair, Song Qian said in a solemn voice: "My lord, I believe that Princess Zhong Qing is not dead, and the person is ...... Yangzhou." ”

"What?" Shi Miyuan, who had just sat firmly on the chair, stood up suddenly, and asked in shock, "You said Zhong Qing is not dead?" Still alive, people are in Yangzhou? ”

"Yes, the person is in Yangzhou, and he lives in Ye Qing's mansion, so the relationship with Ye Qing should be very close." Song Qian said solemnly.

After arriving in Yangzhou, he didn't have many opportunities to enter and leave Ye Qing's mansion, and even if he entered Ye Qing's mansion, it was only in the front yard, and no one in the backyard could enter and leave casually except for a few people in the gatehouse.

It was reasonable to maintain a certain strictness in the backyard of the women's activities, but when they went to the temple outside Yangzhou City to pray for Ye Qing's return to Lin'an, and had to bring Song Qian, Song Qian actually saw the smiling bright and picturesque Fang Fei the moment he stepped into the temple.

And that Fang Fei was next to a woman who wore a shallow head, obviously unwilling to let people know her face and identity.

At first, although Song Qian was not sure that the woman wearing a shallow head was Zhong Qing, when he secretly stared at the back and looked more and more like, especially a hurried glance, when he saw the shallow face, Song Qian even suspected that his eyes were spent!

"Are you really sure, that's Zhong Qing?" Shi Miyuan confirmed in surprise.

"The lower official is willing to guarantee the head of the item, which is definitely the letter to the princess Zhong Qing." Song Qian replied firmly.

Then looking at Shi Miyuan, who was a little stunned, Song Qian thought for a while before saying: "My lord, the reason why Xia Guan came to disturb you so late is that he wants to tell you the news as soon as possible. ”

"You mean, let me catch Ye Qing off guard at the court meeting tomorrow? As long as this matter is poked out above the court, or is it told to King Xin, who will return to Lin'an, in order to borrow their hands to take revenge on Ye Qing? Shi Miyuan's eyes flashed with cunning, looked at Song Qian, who nodded, and smiled, and then said coldly: "If that's the case, I dare to guarantee that Ye Qing will hide Zhong Qing as soon as possible, and we won't be able to catch his true handle at all." What's more, some people in the Imperial City Division are still in Ye Qing's hands, and even used by that Bai Chun, but you still told me about this. So, I'm afraid that tomorrow I will just finish talking in the court, and Zhong Qing will disappear without a trace in Yangzhou the day after tomorrow. It's not in our interest. ”

At the end, there was a hint of pity in Shi Miyuan's tone, so that Song Qian on the side didn't know who Shi Miyuan was sorry for for a while.

"Bai Chun has the people of the Imperial City Division in his hands, but judging from the following officials, they should all be composed of the remnants of the back army, and they are ...... Xia Guan has ....... Song Qian stretched out his hand and made a killing gesture at his neck.

"In this way, I really have to hurry up, otherwise, once Ye Qing discovers it, this handle will immediately come to naught. You know this, but remember not to reveal it to anyone, not even the king. Shi Miyuan said with a smile gradually appearing on his face.

"I mean ......." Song Qian asked a little confused.

"Shi Ze and Zhao Shu can't die in vain, even if they die on the belly of the woman in Lin'an Qinglou, but I can only count this account on his head Ye Qing. I used Po Li to lose the wealth of Huainan East Road, so I had to talk to him about Po Li and the secret recipe of gouache and soap in his wife's hand. If you can get these secret recipes, it's not too late to tell King Shin when the time comes, right? The sinister smile on Shi Miyuan's greedy face became more and more intense, making Song Qian on the side shudder involuntarily.
