Thanks to Yi'an Biwu for your reward and monthly pass!
In a flash, several months passed.
It's a cool autumn day.
In the past few months, interesting news has come one after another.
He Zhang, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Rites, committed treason and was executed for having an affair with Xiaowan and Pishan.
This was within Yan Qi's expectation.
The crime of treason is extremely serious. This kind of traitor violates the general principles and everyone can punish him.
Another person, Yan Qi's 'old friend', Xie Sanjia, his news is somewhat strange.
Xie Sanjia was kicked as an eunuch by Yan Qi and imprisoned.
The Xie family spent a lot of money to bail Xie Sanjia out of prison. Although he was guilty, he could serve his sentence at home.
The strange thing is that more than ten days ago, all the Jie family members disappeared.
No matter where you are, you can't find anyone who knows how to solve the problem.
What a strange case.
Yan Qi is also very strange.
However, for him, Jie Sanjia was no match at all, and he didn't bother to pay attention to his whereabouts.
And during this period of time, the one who was most proud of himself was Zhao Qing.
As the Minister of Rites of Dahua, Zhao Qing came to Xiye Kingdom and showed Dahua's majesty and interests with every gesture.
Moreover, when he returned to Dahua, he brought back 1,500 war horses.
This time, the government and the public were shocked.
You know, the Western Regions were once a vassal state of Dahua, but that was during the era of Prime Minister Cao, and it was old news more than ten years ago.
Over the years, Prime Minister Cao passed away and Dahua's power declined. Prime Minister Yang was in charge, yearning for "peace" and always providing benefits to the countries in the Western Regions. How could he get any benefits from the countries in the Western Regions?
Moreover, the Western Region no longer respects Dahua and does not allow Dahua to be its suzerain state.
This time, Zhao Qing went to the Western Regions as an envoy and achieved remarkable results.
Not only did it confirm that the Western Regions and Dahua were vassal and suzerain states, they also brought back 1,500 war horses from the Western Regions.
Zhao Qing and his party in the Western Regions can be said to be making a lot of money.
All the ministers were envious of him.
From then on, Zhao Qing worked steadily in his position as Minister of Rites.
Among those old ministers of the Ministry of Rites, who dares to say no?
Even the powerful Prime Minister Yang hated Zhao Qing secretly. With a smile on his face, he did not hesitate to praise Zhao Qing: "Zhao Qing is really a capable official in the country, with a bright future and a bright future."
Zhao Qing's glory is within Yan Qi's calculation.
Zhao Qing visited Xiye Kingdom and temporarily saved the precarious Xiye Kingdom.
The countries in the Western Regions originally planned to attack the Xiye Kingdom and carve up the Xiye Kingdom in one go.
However, Zhao Qing came to Xiye to support Xiye, but he hit all the countries in the Western Regions in the face and deceived them.
"What the hell is going on?"
"Why does Dahua support Xiye?"
"If we attack Xiye Kingdom, will we offend Dahua?"
…
Some countries in the Western Region were overthinking and timid, and did not dare to take action against the Western Night Kingdom until they understood the situation.
However, secretly, it is gathering strength.
How can I swallow this bad breath?
…
Yan Qi's life was a bit boring.
He has been waiting for the results of Erxue Hongruke, but they have not been released for a long time.
But that’s fine.
Once you go to the capital, intrigues are inevitable
How tiring.
It would be better to stay in Jinling.
Every day, it’s just eating, drinking and having fun.
What a great little life!
Autumn has passed, and it is cold winter.
This year's winter has been extremely cold, with temperatures much lower than in the past.
In places like Jinling where spring blossoms and flowers bloom, it also begins to snow.
There was actually a thin layer of ice on the lotus pond.
Yan Qi's body was full of zhenqi, so he wasn't afraid of the cold.
Others were wearing thick robes, but he was wearing a single suit.
At this moment, he was drinking tea at Leng Youxue's home.
Leng Youxue is dressed in white velvet clothes, a large cloak, a high hairdo, phoenix eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and a free and easy temperament. She is practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard.
The rabbit rises and the falcon falls, walking slightly on the waves, with a dashing and heroic posture, very much like a heroine.
The falling snowflakes danced and flew under her sword energy, but did not even fall to the ground.
"Good swordsmanship."
Yan Qi applauded: "You asked me here just to watch you act mean?"
"You're the one who's being mean."
Leng Youxue snorted and stabbed Yan Qi with her sword.
Yan Qiyi twisted his waist and stretched out his arms: "Grab the milk dragon's hand."
"Um!"
How could Leng Youxue avoid Yan Qixie's dragon's grasp?
Suddenly struck in the chest.
Leng Youxue let out an arrogant snort, and fell limply into Yan Qi's arms.
Yan Qi's big hands touched Leng Youxue's body: "Rather than watching you play with the sword, it would be better to watch you play mean."
"Sex embryo, don't touch it!"
Leng Youxue was touched randomly by Yan Qi. Her body was hot and numb, and she felt indescribably comfortable and comfortable.
Yan Qi couldn't get enough of it, so she even reached into her clothes to touch it: "What are you afraid of if you touch it? It won't hurt if you touch it."
"What should I do if it gets damaged?"
"I'll fix it for you!"
"Get lost."
Leng Youxue took Yan Qi's big hand out of her chest, pushed him away, and said coquettishly: "What were you thinking about just now? You looked worried about the country and the people."
Yan Qidao: "Can't I worry about the country and the people?"
Leng Youxue said: "You act like a ruffian, it's strange that you know how to worry about the country and the people. Besides, you are a good person, how can you worry about the people."
Yan Qi caught the snowflakes and watched them slowly melting in her hands: "Looking at a falling leaf, you know it's autumn; looking at the falling snow, you know it's cold outside the Great Wall. Think about it, even in the warm places of Jinling, it will snow, so what will happen outside the Great Wall?" How cold is it?"
Leng Youxue stuck out her tongue and said: "I heard that this winter is extremely cold. It's the first time in more than 20 years. Moreover, there is a joke."
Yan Qidao: "What joke?"
Leng Youxue's face turned red: "It's not a good joke."
Yan Qidao: "I love listening to dirty jokes the most."
Leng Youxue said: "It's cold outside the Great Wall. I don't dare to go to the toilet. Halfway through urination, my urine will freeze into icicles and I won't be able to pee."
Yan Qi experienced the coldness of Saibei and nodded: "This is not a dirty joke, but a fact."
Leng Youxue blinked her beautiful eyes: "However, the people in Saibei are used to the cold winter, so they must be prepared and will not suffer from the cold."
Yan Qidao: "What I'm worried about is not that the people in Saibei can't withstand the severe cold."
"Then what are you worried about?"
"What I'm worried about is that the Turkic army will madly plunder the border areas of Dahua."
Leng Youxue frowned: "What do you mean by this? Turks and Dahua just signed an armistice agreement. I came to you this time to tell you the good news."
"An armistice? That's useless."
Yan Qi shook his head: "The Turks are in a bitter cold land, with heavy snow all over the sky and no fodder. Especially this year, it is a freezing year that has not been seen in decades. The life of the Turks Royal Court is even more difficult."
"Without fodder and food, what will they do? They will only intensify their efforts and rob the people in the north of the Great Wall. And this is what I am most worried about."
Leng Youxue was unconvinced: "Are you overthinking it? Tujue and Dahua have just signed an agreement, how can you tear it up casually..."
Yan Qi was too lazy to refute: "In a month, you will believe what I say."
