Chapter 76: Ascending to the Heights, the Past Is Slim (4)

Qing Ling was silent for a while, and asked: "Xiao Qi, look at this Donglu rivers and mountains, stretching for thousands of miles, standing here, imagining the stories that our ancestors had on this continent, will you feel that you are small and insignificant?" ”

How great would it be if she could have the ability to open the world, hold the Qingyun Divine Sword in her hand, resist the wind, be free, and not be controlled by anyone or anything......

Luo Yao seemed to smile, "Senior Sister's ancestors are gods who are admired for all eternity, which naturally makes you feel pressured. My ancestors were traders on one side and wolf demons on the other, and I think I'm pretty good in comparison. ”

Qing Ling was very angry and glanced at Luo Yao indisputably, "You person, why have you never had great ambitions?" It's still the prince of Daze and the prince of Jiuqiu, and I haven't seen you make any achievements. ”

Luo Yao is very sincere, "I originally wanted to do something career, but unfortunately after all, when I reached the age of falling in love, I inevitably only wanted to live with the person I liked, wandering the world, and the great cause of my family and country could only be temporarily left behind." ”

Qing Ling choked. Thinking of the many crazy things he had done because of his love, he couldn't help but feel a little touched, and after a while, he said slowly: "But in addition to the love between men and women in the world, there should be many other things, which are equally important, right?" For example, an ambition that you want to achieve. ”

"Oh. What are my sister's ambitions? ”

Qing Ling thought about it and said honestly: "I want to make myself strong. I used to think that as long as I became the emperor of Chaoyan, I would be very powerful. But in reality, not too many people really take me seriously. The guards can betray me when they turn around, and your majesty will whip me in public if he wants to. On the surface, it seems that there is a lot of money, but in fact, you can spend it as much as you want, and there is no one at all! If I try to win over a courtier, the only bargaining chips I can get hold of seem to be two: either marry him himself, or marry his son. ”

Luo Yao kept looking at Qing Ling, his gaze was a little incomprehensibly complicated, and the mountain wind held up a strand of long hair scattered on his forehead, skimming the corners of his lips with a bitter smile.

"When I was in Chongwu before, I didn't see that my senior sister was so eager for power."

Qing Ling half-lowered his eyes, his gaze fell on the white mist outside the bar, and his face was confused for a moment.

If you have to get to the bottom of it, your desire for power is nothing more than wanting to help that person. can dig out such a truth, which only makes her more miserable and miserable......

She raised her head, smiled, and said to Luo Yao: "I've always been such a person, but I didn't have the opportunity before. Now that I finally got a father who is an emperor, I naturally have to seize the opportunity and make a lot of money! ”

Luo Yao looked away, with some ridicule in his tone, "If Senior Sister is short of money, I can lend you some." Thirty years is limited, five cents of profit, how? ”

Qing Ling knew that Luo Yao was joking, but he still pondered it in his heart very seriously.

Barry's is indeed rich. Sitting on Daze, he controlled the only way for trade between the Eastern Continent and the Western Continent, and the annual commercial tax paid to Chaoyan alone was tens of millions. Although Xiao Qi is only a young master, it is not difficult to use his hands and feet in the accounts and transfer a considerable amount of private money to lend.

But if you come forward to borrow money, borrowing less, it is not interesting, borrowing too much, it is difficult to ensure that it does not arouse suspicion. After all, it is one thing to fight for power, and it is another thing to raise a private army. Back then, his father was able to kill Mu Chen because of a letter about transferring troops to Beijing, and if the news of the private placement of the army leaked out, I am afraid it would not be as simple as a capital crime......

Qing Ling shook his head, "Forget it, your interest is too high, I'm afraid I can't afford to pay it back." If you really want to help me, you might as well teach me a few tricks of your Baili's way to make a fortune! ”

Luo Yao raised his eyebrows, "Senior sister also wants to learn to do business?" ”

Qingling said: "It doesn't have to be a profitable business, but it can also earn a position of power." ”

She stretched out her finger and pointed at Luo Yao, "Don't pretend to me that you don't understand anything!" Although your sister has been taking care of the affairs of Barry's all these years, you have not been idle. Xian Xian told me that her business and house in Wutong Town are your private property. ”

Luo Yao was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Senior Sister Gui was the emperor, and she would be interested in the business of Wutong Town. ”

He glanced at Qing Ling, who began to show a fierce light, and couldn't help but smile deeper, and then said solemnly: "The business in Wutong Town is not a profitable business. ”

"What's that business?"

"Between Chaoyan, Daze and Jiuqiu, there has actually been business and trade in private. On the bright side, the merchants of Chaoyan and Daze are not allowed to have dealings with Jiuqiu. But businessmen are profit-heavy and will always come up with various ways to achieve their goals. What Xian Xian is operating in his hands is ostensibly a Fengyue business, but in fact it is a place where the three businessmen secretly meet and communicate with each other. And in this, Xian Xian connects and controls the relationship between all parties, and is the biggest beneficiary. The information in her hands sometimes costs more than a thousand dollars. ”

Qing Ling pondered Luo Yao's words, "Then am I ...... Should there be a place like this in Soaring City? ”

In other words, if she heard someone teach her the way of business with the history of the brothel proprietress, she would have been slapped a few times. But Qingling has always been very weak about the status of the noble and low, and he got along very well with Xian Xian before, so he didn't think there was anything wrong, but he was worried that he had no experience in this kind of business, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get any results......

Luo Yao said: "Lingxiao City already has the Red Moon Fang, and the senior sister wants to compete with the owners there, but I am afraid that she will lose very badly. ”

Qing Ling had heard from Chun Yuyan that Red Moon Fang was a famous place in Lingxiao City, and those who could enter it were either rich or expensive. There are the most expensive and beautiful dancing girls in the Eastern Continent, and the wine and food are all the best in the world. Being able to go to Hongyuefang to see it is not only a sign of wealth, but also a sign of being part of the inner circle of the children of the capital family.

Inner circle?

Qing Ling's brain turned, and he suddenly had an idea, "Ha, there is!" The people who come and go in the Red Moon Fang are all the children of the families in the capital. Then I'll make a circle of family daughters! ”

If it is so difficult to win over courtiers, why not start with their daughters? The courtiers were afraid of the attitude of Emperor Hao and the Fang Shan clan, and when Mu Chen was weak, it was impossible for them to easily change their camp and stand on the side that supported him. And he didn't get particularly close to any prince on the surface, and his position seemed to be neutral, and he gathered a group of noblewomen in the Yinque Palace under the pretext of playing in the boudoir, even if he couldn't persuade the courtiers to change his course through them, he could at least take the opportunity to dig up some useful information.

As for what Xiao Qi said just now, "controlling the relationship between all parties", Qing Ling frowned and thought, how to do it?

Luo Yao had been paying attention to Qing Ling's expression, and at this moment, seeing her meditating on the way of power and strategy, and no longer having half of the previous lazy and slippery appearance in Chongwu, the strangeness of the moment actually made him feel a little sad.

He clenched his fingers on the railing tightly, and then raised his head to look at the sky again, "It's not too early, please call out the mount and rush back to the palace as soon as possible." ”

Qing Ling was thinking about the construction of the inner circle of female dependents, and did not notice the change in Luo Yao's tone. After the two of them sat on the unicorn and rose into the air, she restrained her mind a little, hesitated for a moment, and humbly asked: "Xiao Qi, you say...... What can be done to control the relationship between them? ”

After a while, Luo Yao's voice came from the wind, and there was a little coldness in the lowness, "I've said enough." If you keep talking, I'm afraid you'll regret it. ”

Qing Ling was stunned, and he didn't understand the meaning of Luo Yao's words for a long time.

After careful analysis, could he ...... Is regret inspiring yourself? Regretting inadvertently leaking important secrets?

Qing Ling couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Since the farewell of Jiuqiu and the reunion of Lingxiao City, this kid has always been angry with himself, sometimes cold and sometimes hot, it is simply inexplicable! Yesterday, she got along well, and she was also quite grateful to him for his understanding and companionship, and even secretly made a decision in her heart, even if she had to stand on the opposite side in the future, as long as he didn't hurt herself, she would always love him as a junior brother.

But now, people have regretted it one after another......

So she sneered: "Since you are afraid that I will gain power and threaten Mu Han, why do you want to pretend to come to show favor to me?" ”

Luo Yao was silent.

Qing Ling also held his breath and stopped talking to him.

flew out a long distance, and the Zhangguo Mountain behind him also disappeared. Luo Yao suddenly opened his mouth, "I'm sorry." ”

He sighed softly and muttered to himself, "I'm jealous." ”

Qing Ling was confused, only when Luo Yao was demonic and insane, he made up his mind not to pay attention to him anymore, snorted coldly, and accelerated his speed and flew towards Lingxiao City.

Before entering the city, she re-twisted the trick and changed into the appearance of Baili Ningyan, and followed Luo Yao to Baili's mansion to change cars and cars.

Luo Yao sent Qing Ling to the side of the car and stretched out his hand to help her get into the car, but Qing Ling avoided her sideways.

Luo Yao lowered his eyes and said softly: "I won't go to visit Emperor Ji today." You tell the emperor and ask her to take care. ”

He said a few words to the servant who was driving, stepped aside, and watched silently as the car took off.

Qing Ling had been stubbornly not looking at Luo Yao, and when the car rose into the air, he leaned over through the window lattice, looking at the gradually shrinking figures and mansions on the ground, and his heart was a little difficult to distinguish.
