After Li Yan heard the butler's talk about Cai Jing's arrest, he sat there in silence for a long time.
"Cai Jing is finished, what about me?"
Li Yan thought to himself.
"Judging from yesterday's conversation, His Majesty must know his relationship with Cai Jing, and he must also know that he is secretly connected with Liangshan, but why did he touch Cai Jing but not himself?"
Li Yan really couldn't guess.
"Well, the emperor's heart is indeed not something that we ministers can figure out."
Li Yan sighed.
At the same time, a man dressed as a restaurant waiter quietly left Bianliang.
Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
Lin Chong stood on a hillside not far from Daming Mansion, standing with his hands behind his hands and looking at Daming Mansion.
Beside Lin Chong, Shi Wengong, Wu Yanguang, and Wu Yong stood equally casually.
"It's so fast.
It's March again.
At this time last year, we were already out hunting for gold," Lin Chong said with emotion to the three of them.
"Yes, time flies so fast.
Now the north is developing well.
Brother Huyan is directing the construction of the city in Huining Mansion and training soldiers at the same time.
He will wait for two months for the earth to warm up before starting farming.
It can be said that things are booming.
The old general's immigration in Yanjing is also going very smoothly.
Now that the immigrants around Yanjing have been completed, the old general is starting to immigrate to the north of Yanjing.
As for the people from the Central Plains immigrating to the north, it has also been very smooth.
In the past six months, about 200,000 people have taken the initiative to live around Yanjing, making the city of Yanjing gradually revitalized.
The royal palace and altar in Daming Mansion have been completed, and the founding ceremony of the country can only be held when the auspicious time is chosen.
Looking back on the past year, too many changes have taken place and too many things have been done," Wu Yong said with emotion, following Lin Chong's words.
Wu Yong was originally just a teacher in Yuncheng, but now he has become a military advisor in Liangshan, and will also become a founding hero in the near future.
This is something Wu Yong never dared to think about before he met Lin Chong.
"Actually, the biggest change was in the imperial court.
Emperor Huizong didn't know if it was due to Liangshan's influence.
He changed his mind and not only became diligent, but also vigorously rectified the imperial court.
The most surprising thing was that he ransacked Cai Jing's house and wiped out his family with a thunderous force.
It really exceeded everyone's expectations and made all the officials in the court frightened.
The atmosphere in the court also improved for a time.
It's a pity that he realized it too late.
It can be said that the imperial court was already seriously ill, and it could not be reversed by killing two ministers and being more diligent on the part of the emperor.
Huizong's actions in the past six months seem to have revitalized the imperial court, but it can only be a flash in the pan and will not last long," Lin Chong said with a smile.
"Brother, the imperial court has been in frequent contact with Xixia recently, and there have been frequent troop mobilizations in places bordering us.
We have to guard against this matter," Wu Yanguang said to Lin Chong.
It has been almost two years since Wu Yanguang returned to Liangshan.
Lin Chong was very wary of Wu Yanguang at first.
Later, through several trials and Wu Yanguang's attitude towards the immigration of Liao Kingdom, Lin Chong gradually began to trust him. , and now she is not on guard against him in anything.
Wu Yanguang has also been cautious in his words and deeds at the beginning, and now he has completely returned to his heart.
He can express his own opinions from time to time when the brothers talk about things, and he always has unique insights.
Even the always conceited Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng praised Wu Yanguang.
Lin Chong smiled, "Judging from Song Huizong's various performances in the past six months, he is determined to go to war with us.

If nothing goes wrong, the imperial court must have reached an agreement with Xixia, and they should join forces to fight us.
Humph, but Song Huizong and Li Qianshun underestimated me, Liangshan, and thought they could compete with us if they united.
They were really too naive.
Now after more than half a year of rest and recuperation in Liangshan, our soldiers are united and their morale is high.
How can we compete with two countries that are in decay and sunset?"
In the past half year or so, Liangshan has completely digested the fruits of victory in the previous battles, and all the surrendered Tian Hu and Liao soldiers have returned home.
Liangshan's overall strength has reached a terrifying height.
There are strong soldiers inside, no worries about the rear, well-equipped soldiers, and all the generals are focused.
Lin Chong really can't think of a reason for his failure.
After listening to Lin Chong's words, several people all had happy smiles on their faces.
Lin Chong is right.
With Liangshan's current strength, let alone the imperial court and Xixia joining forces, they are not afraid even if one more person joins forces.
"Brother, if the imperial court really joins forces with Xixia, it will probably take action in places like Wei Sheng and Gaizhou.
After all, they are close to Xixia and the Western Army is also there.
It is also possible that the Western Army restrained Brother Lu Junyi and the others, and then Xixia sent troops to sneak attack the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun.
As for Bianliang, it is possible to separate some soldiers to set up a defense line between Jeju and Bianliang, and then send a large army to attack Damingfu.
Apart from the above, I can't think of any other places where the imperial court would attack," Wu Yong analyzed Lin Chong.
Lin Chong moved his arms and said casually, "This is why I asked Guan Sheng and Sun An to stay.
We have hundreds of thousands of troops in Weisheng, Gaizhou, and Jinning.
We have many soldiers and plenty of food and grass.
We are not afraid whether the Western Army and Xixia attack at the same time or separately.
If we attack together, that's fine.
If Xixia divides its troops to sneak attack on the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun as the scholar said, huh, do they really think we can't capture Xingqing Mansion?"
After Lin Chong finished speaking, he exuded a domineering aura from the inside out, as if an emperor was lording over the world.
Xixia has few soldiers.
If they leave their nest without permission and with the skills of Guan Sheng and Sun An, they can lead a large army to Xingqing Mansion, the capital of Xixia.
Xiazhou, which blocked the Song Dynasty's attack, was burned to ashes by Guan Sheng and his two men.
This removed the barrier in front of Xingqing Mansion, and the Liangshan army could now march straight in to attack Xingqing Mansion.
With the capital city under siege, it was impossible for the Xixia army to sneak attack Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures.
"Haha, I said that brothers Guan Sheng and Sun An requested to come back.
Brother, you have always disagreed.
It turns out that you have been on guard against collusion between Xixia and the imperial court.
It's awesome, it's really awesome."
Shi Wengong laughed and said to Lin Chong .
Hearing Shi Wengong's words, several other brothers also laughed.
Indeed, when everyone just thought that Xixia might unite with the imperial court, Lin Chong had already arranged countermeasures.
This is the gap.
Tokyo, Imperial Study Room.
"Your Majesty, Xixia and Wang Qing have already contacted each other, and their respective armies are ready.
They will attack Liangshan as soon as the agreed date arrives."
Li Yan said excitedly as he stood in front of Huizong.
After Cai Jing was executed, Li Yan spent a few days in fear.
Later, he felt that Huizong had no intention of pursuing him, and then he slowly felt relieved.
In the court, he showed his full strength and devoted himself to making suggestions for Huizong.
Huizong also appreciated him more and more.

This made Li Yan more likely to replace Cai Jing's previous position in the court and become the most powerful official:
