The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 1318 Humanity
After Ye Liuyun rescued Ye Ling'er and took away the eldest princess of Northern Qi, he did not rush back to Nanqing. Instead, he took the two girls on a journey of sightseeing, with the main purpose of making it a relaxing trip.

The Princess of Northern Qi had never thought of escaping. After witnessing the power of the Grand Master with her own eyes, she also realized that with her limited skills, she would not be able to escape.

Ye Liuyun did not treat the eldest princess too harshly. Instead, he treated her with courtesy along the way, and served her with good food and drink, which actually made her fatter.

Ye Ling'er, on the other hand, had some complaints about Ye Liuyun, mainly because he refused to take Lin Wan'er away.

On this day, the three of them came to the border between Northern Qi and Southern Qing. They would be able to return to Southern Qing in half a day. Ye Liuyun suddenly decided not to leave, but found an inn to rest temporarily. While eating, Ye Ling'er even had a sour face.

“Niece, even if Lin Wan’er returns to Qing, she will be sent to Yuan Meng to marry by the Qing Emperor. This is her fate. Even if I am a grandmaster, I can’t help her.” Ye Liuyun said with a wry smile.

"Uncle, you are a great master. If you really want to save someone, Your Majesty should give you some face!" Ye Ling'er said dissatisfiedly: "You just refuse to save Wan'er."

Ye Liuyun said: "You think too highly of me, a great master. If I really had that much face, I wouldn't have gone to Northern Qi with all the trouble to destroy the marriage between the two countries."

The Princess of Northern Qi said with a straight face: "Grandmaster Ye, you kidnapped me and didn't hide your identity. Aren't you afraid of angering Northern Qi and Yuan Meng? Although Southern Qing is strong, if the two countries send troops to attack Qing at the same time, even if you have two grandmasters in Southern Qing, you won't be able to stop them!"

Ye Liuyun pushed the plate of meat in front of the Princess of Northern Qi and said, "Don't be afraid. If the sky falls, there are tall people to support it."

The eldest princess said angrily: "You Nanqing are too arrogant! Do you really think that the coalition forces of our two countries are made of paper?"

Ye Liuyun smiled and said: "Of course it's not made of paper, but it's not that easy for the two countries to form an alliance, so I'll help push it forward."

The Princess of Northern Qi was surprised and asked, "Grandmaster Ye wants to deliberately provoke a war among the Three Kingdoms? Why!"

Ye Ling'er also looked at Ye Liuyun in confusion. Her political acumen was not as good as that of the Princess of Northern Qi. Only now did she realize that Ye Liuyun's kidnapping of the Princess would not destroy the alliance between the two countries, but would instead promote their common hatred of the enemy.

"Uncle, why do you do this?" Ye Ling'er asked puzzled.

Ye Liuyun smiled without saying anything and just ate his meal slowly.

"Because he wants to continue the power of the Ye family, he must fight." Wang Gang's voice came from behind Ye Ling'er.

Ye Ling'er and the eldest princess turned around and saw Wang Gang walking towards them, looking exhausted.

"You came pretty quickly." Ye Liuyun seemed to have known that Wang Gang would come, and said: "Have you eaten? Do you want to sit down and eat with us?"

Wang Gang sat down next to the eldest princess with a majestic figure.

"Wang Gang, how did you find us?" Ye Ling'er was a little scared when she saw Wang Gang.

When the Princess of Northern Qi heard Ye Ling'er's words, she looked at Wang Gang in shock. On the way, Ye Ling'er told the Princess that the Canglang Khan was named Wang Gang.

Meeting her future husband in such an occasion, the eldest princess didn't know whether to be happy or worried.

"My wife has been kidnapped, can't you hurry over here?" Wang Gang looked at Ye Liuyun with a gloomy expression and said:
"Give me back my wife."

Ye Liuyun pointed at the eldest princess and said, "Princess, you can take her away, but Ling'er must return to Nanqing. I will never allow her to become a political sacrifice."

Wang Gang said coldly: "If you start a war among the three kingdoms, all the people will suffer. Aren't you afraid that the Ye family will also suffer?"

Ye Liuyun sighed, "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it's only a matter of time before Nanqing is destroyed. You, Ku He, Si Gu Jian, and Emperor Qing have too deep a grudge against each other. There will always be a war between the two sides. I also have to consider the Ye family and myself."

Wang Gang suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. You want to replicate the old Northern Wei Dynasty and let the Ye family replace the Li royal family." Back then, the Wei Dynasty suppressed other countries, which was very similar to the current Southern Qing Dynasty. However, it also fell apart due to external enemies and internal troubles. The Northern Wei Dynasty fell, giving rise to Southern Qing Dynasty and Northern Qi Dynasty.

Ye Liuyun wanted the old things to repeat themselves, paving the way for the Ye family to replace the Nanqing royal family and establish a new dynasty.

"Uncle, do you want to betray His Majesty?" Ye Ling'er said with a dry mouth.

Ye Liuyun snorted coldly: "Emperor Qing treats my Ye family like cattle and horses. I am a great master. I have worked hard for him all these years, but what have I got in return?"

Wang Gang turned to Ye Ling'er and explained, "Half a year ago, your father returned from the war and was stripped of his title and official position. He is now idle at home. The Ye family's position in the army has gradually been replaced by the Liu family. Emperor Qing is obviously paving the way for the third prince Li Chengping."

Ye Ling'er opened her mouth in surprise, feeling that her brain was not enough.

Ye Liuyun sighed and said, "For the sake of the Ye family and the Qing Kingdom, I have had to compromise and work hard for Emperor Qing over the years, but in the end, all I got in return was suspicion. Among the several grandmasters, I am the one who lives the most aggrieved life!"

Ye Ling'er was silent. In fact, she also knew the pain in Ye Liuyun's heart.

There are five great masters in the world today, among whom Si Gu Jian is a god-like figure in Dongyi City, and his status is irreplaceable.

Ku He was the imperial teacher of Northern Qi and held a high position. He could even ignore the face of the emperor and the empress dowager.

Emperor Qing and Wang Gang are both rulers of a country. Only Ye Liuyun, although a grandmaster, is restricted by his family and has to obey Emperor Qing.

After all, it was the Ye family that dragged Ye Liuyun down, and it was also because Ye Liuyun was a rare "human" among the grand masters who still retained human touch.

Wang Gang asked Ye Liuyun: "In your eyes, is your family more important than the millions of Liming people?"

Ye Liuyun said coldly: "The world will eventually unite after being divided for a long time. It is impossible to achieve peaceful reunification. It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one."

Wang Gang frowned, and again he was a little confused about Ye Liuyun.

"I can help you kill Emperor Qing, and even help you unify the world, all I ask for is eternal prosperity for the Ye family." Ye Liuyun looked at Wang Gang with burning eyes.

"You beat up my people, and you still want to cooperate with me." Wang Gang smiled instead of getting angry.

Ye Liuyun said calmly: "I just want to tell you that it is useless to train more masters above the ninth rank. In the eyes of the Grand Master, everyone below the Grand Master is an ant.

So what if you led the Thirteen Wings to cause trouble in Kyoto? You still returned empty-handed. Emperor Qing's injury has long been healed. A Grandmaster cannot be judged by ordinary people."

Wang Gang said coldly: "The Thirteen Wings are not ants. They are all my brothers who have shared my life. From the moment you injured Feng Ying and Akainu, we will fight to the death."

Ye Ling'er and the eldest princess shuddered all over, feeling the biting chill from Wang Gang.

Ye Liuyun's smile slowly faded. He didn't expect that Wang Gang, after breaking through to the Grandmaster level, would still treat him as a human being and the Thirteen Wings as a brother.

"You are a rare grandmaster who retains some human touch, but not many." Wang Gang stood up and said coldly: "Do you want to fight here or go outside."

Ye Liuyun frowned and said: "You should know that our strength is only comparable. Even if you can win, you will have to pay a huge price, and you will never be able to kill Emperor Qing again."

"So what? If you hurt my brother, you will have to pay the price." Wang Gang said in a firm voice.

Ye Ling'er looked like she was meeting Wang Gang for the first time, her expression was very complicated.
