Xiao Yezi smiled and kowtowed again: "Since the helper understands Ren Tianwang like this, then Xiao Yezi, the assassin, is really determined." It's okay, Xiao Yezi also got the bishop's teaching before he died, and he died unjustly. It's not the first time that the gang leader has punished Xiao Yezi, and this second sanction should be more familiar. She lowered her head and smiled, "Please ask the helper to summon someone to summon the sword-wielding messenger to enforce the gang rules, or you can ask someone to send me to the sword-wielding palace." Xiao Yezi knelt up straight, looked at Yunxi with a smile on his face, "As long as there are others around you besides Ling Xuan." ”

Yunxi's face suddenly turned cold, the purple robe flicked, one turned around, and returned to sit on the couch, a pair of indifferent eyes looked down at Xiao Yezi, and said in a deep voice: "You girl is too disobedient." If it weren't for the fact that you had already been poisoned by the Fengrui Battalion, I would have fulfilled you by killing you at this moment. ”

"The helper is discerning." Xiao Yezi kowtowed deeply, "Although I don't know how the helper found out that I was poisoned, it is enough to see that the helper is still clear-minded and can distinguish between right and wrong." Even if Xiao Yezi dies immediately, there is nothing to worry about. ”

“…… How do I find out? Yunxi's face froze, and suddenly turned to Xiao Suo, "Heh, it's all old and old." ”

He paused and called, "Ling Xuan, come in." ”

Ling Xuan entered as she said and bowed.

Yun Xi asked: "Have all the people who went to Lingyan been dismissed by King Ren Tian?" ”

Ling Xuan knelt down and responded: "Yes, the gang leader was in retreat to recuperate earlier, and Ling Sui didn't dare to tell the gang leader. Please help the Lord to condemn the sin. ”

Yunxi shook his hand and said, "You are also out of thoughtful consideration, I don't blame you." Now that I've decided to get out of the country, you don't have to do it. What's important in the near future? ”

Ling Xuan said: "In the past, the four heavenly kings in the gang were still able to fight against each other, but now they are no longer balanced. The Liren Pavilion has been declining day by day, a few days ago I heard that Yang Tianwang was poisoned for some reason, but Ling Xuan had already sent the medicine over, and now Yang Tianwang is just in the Liren Pavilion to regulate his body, and there is no movement. ”

Xiao Yezi heard that Yang Yizhao had gotten rid of the predicament, and suddenly relaxed, his legs were weak, and he almost leaned back. Yunxi glanced at her lightly, but it was not obvious.

I only heard Ling Xuan continue: "As for Cloud City, it is alone, and it doesn't care about help, and only assists the border defense to fight against the Yanjin Empire. The Fengrui camp is divided into two factions, the faction of the high hall master, and the faction of Li Li Chengche who comes to the night of the gods. In order to consolidate his power, the high hall master has begun to deliberately get close to the creation building, but he still has reservations and is also developing his own power. And because of the proper management of Ren Tianwang for many years, coupled with the blessing of the name of the helper's wife as the representative of the helper, it has formed a trend of dominance. In addition, I just received two letters today, one from the Lingyue Dynasty and the other from Cloud City. Please help the Lord to take a look. After speaking, he took out two letter boxes from his bosom and presented them to Yunxi.

Xiao Yezi looked at Ling Xuan with admiration, she only felt that Ling Xuan was methodical before, but now after listening to her brief comment, she controls the situation properly, and she is concise and to the point, she is indeed a talent. No wonder Yunxi has always been more important than her, doing things by Yunxi's side at a young age is really her superiority.

Yunxi opened the letter tube and looked at it, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

He glanced up at Xiao Yezi, didn't speak, and only handed the letter to Ling Xuan.

Ling Xuan also read it quickly, and also glanced at the little leaves present with the same eyes, and then said solemnly: "The food on the front line of Cloud City is insufficient, but Ren Tianwang uses natural disasters and man-made disasters to lose the harvest, and he insists on not distributing food. At this juncture, the Lingyue Dynasty's Divine Retreat Sect Master died, and the new Sect Leader Shen Zhaoxi had already allied with the Yanjin Empire. In this way, my Heavenly King will help the enemy on his back. But the urgent need is to solve the problem of food and wages in Cloudsdale. As long as the front-line crisis is resolved, the Genesis Building will naturally not dare to act rashly. As long as the Heavenly King Gang does not fight among themselves, everything can be controlled again. ”

Yun Xi sighed: "Food...... Salary ...... Quickly send a letter to the imperial court, asking the imperial court to urgently send more grain and grass to Yunzhong City. How much storage is there in the official treasury of Shangling Yan? Only one-tenth of it was kept for his own use, and the rest of his life was escorted to Cloud City. ”

Ling Xuan responded: "Even if the two Cheng Hall Masters deliver it in time, it can only last for ten days." After that, if King Ren still refuses to cooperate, he is afraid that Cloud City will fall from the sky. ”

Yunxi pondered for a moment and said: "I still have a lot of calligraphy and paintings given by celebrities on hand, you ask Chai Song Tang Ying to sell them, or find court officials or private rich people as collateral, in short, raise funds as soon as possible, buy grain and grass within ten days, and escort them to Cheng Che." ”

Ling Xuan answered, turned around and was about to handle it. Xiao Yezi listened to it for a long time, and understood what they were talking about, seeing that Yunxi and Ling Xuan were discussing important matters in the gang, they didn't have to avoid suspicion, and suddenly their hearts moved, why not find a way to seize the opportunity, break the current balance, and ask for a freedom for Yang Yizhao?

She will come back to Lingyan again, it is providence. Only by grasping the will of heaven can we change the will of heaven into the will of the people.

Now that Yunxi is short of money, and calligraphy and painting can be exchanged for money - she immediately remembered that if it is said that there are elegant things such as ancient books of calligraphy and painting, who in the world can compare to the collection of Yang Yizhao's mansion? Although this house and its belongings have long been returned to Yunhuan, sooner or later it will just be a military expense for their expansion. However, their Tuotar tribe has been conquering and looting for many years, and they have gained a lot, and they are no longer in the depressed state of the past, so Yun Huan does not take this money to heart on weekdays. Yun Huan has always wanted Yang Yizhao to participate in the power game of the Tianwang Gang, but if he is a foreigner, if he does not have a strong way, he will definitely not be as good as Yang Yizhao and other Zhaoyin people.

If there is a chance to arch Yun Huan in front of Yunxi's eyes and be appreciated and reused by Yunxi, wouldn't his function be better than a hundred Yang Yizhao? If Yun Huan can succeed in taking the position, Yun Xi can also get a helping hand. Thinking about the relationship between Yunhuan and Yang Yizhao, Yunxi may be able to let Yang Yizhao go. Yun Huan gained momentum, and he could also become Yang Yizhao's barrier. As long as Yang Yizhao no longer shows his head in front of Yunxi, I believe that Yunxi will no longer be too embarrassed by Ren Qingmei. In this way, even if she dies at this moment, at least she can keep Yang Yizhao safe.

Thinking of this, seeing that Ling Xuan was leaving, the conversation was about to end, and the opportunity would not come again.

Xiao Yezi immediately made a decision, immediately kowtowed, and said loudly: "Xiao Yezi is willing to recommend someone to solve this urgent need for the helper." ”

Yunxi was stunned for a moment, and said lightly: "Little girl, I haven't forgiven your sins yet." ”

"Because of this, Xiao Yezi asked for help, so that Xiao Yezi had the opportunity to solve your problems and make atonement for your crimes." Xiao Ye lay on the ground and said loudly.

Ling Xuan saw that Yun Xi had a different look on her face, and saw Xiao Yezi kowtowing again and again, knowing that Yun Xi had the intention to let her go, but she didn't go down the steps, and immediately smiled: "Helper, you once joked about Ling Xuan, saying that although Sister Xiao Yezi has not seen much of the world, she is better than being quick-witted, and she doesn't dare to speak easily in front of people. Now that she is quite anxious, she must have some ideas, you might as well listen to it. If that's right, you've got a good idea. If it's not good, you should listen to a joke and be relieved. ”

Yun Xi said lightly: "Since that's the case, you can say it." ”

Xiao Yezi kowtowed and said: "Xiao Yezi was wandering outside, and he was recommended to know a Tuotar named Yun Huan. This man was the leader of the Tutatar nomadic tribe and had a lot of money. If the Gang Leader is willing to accept him to fund this military salary, it may greatly reduce the burden on Cloudsdale, and it can also leave enough time for the Gang Leader to prepare for the later matters. ”

"Do you want people to give you money based on your words?" Yun Xi shook his head, "Child's words." ”

Xiao Yezi kowtowed again: "Since Xiao Yezi wants to atone his merits, he naturally dares to make an order only if he says it." As long as Yun Huan is given a pivotal position, Xiao Yezi guarantees that this person will definitely help. ”

"Status?" Yun Xi groaned.

"Yes. Although the Tianwang Gang is now infighting, it is still Zhaoyin's No. 1 anti-Yan organ. Even if some disloyal people try to seize power, they all want to be helpers, not to divide them. But the ancients said that if the name is not right, the word is not good. Although the gang leader has been in retreat for a long time, the gang leader is still the gang leader, and he is the first person in charge of the Tianwang Gang. As long as the gang leader is willing to ascend to the heights, whether it is the court or the people, you must first recognize Xiao Yunxi Xiao as the honor of the Tianwang Gang. In that case, why didn't the helper take this opportunity to reshuffle some of the rudders? In this way, it can deter unnecessary dissidents, alleviate the difficulty of military salaries, and third, re-absorb capable people and establish their own cronies. ”

Xiao Yezi's barrage of speeches really made Yunxi hear. Ling Xuan also muttered: "Although this move is dangerous, it is not completely impossible to break the dilemma. ”

"Wouldn't it be my sin if I forcibly used my power to cause the Heavenly King's Gang to fall into internal strife prematurely?" Yunxi snorted.

Xiao Yezi kowtowed: "As long as you do it rightly, no one will dare to make irresponsible remarks on the bright side." And......" she took a breath, "some people shouldn't have been in certain positions for too long. ”

"Who do you mean?" Yun Xi said lightly.

"If you can ......," she calmed down before continuing, "If you can make Yang Tianwang abdicate and make way for Xian, it may not be the best of both worlds for the helper." ”

"Yang Yizhao?" Yun Xi was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned cold, "Do you think that the leader of this gang will privately slander the loyal people of this gang because of some nonsense?" ”

Xiao Yezi kowtowed and said, "As the helper just said, the rumors about Yang Tianwang and someone over the years may be nonsense caused by small talk, or maybe it is a poisonous plan by someone with a heart. How many years the helper has worked hard against this thunder is equivalent to how many years the helper has secretly supported Yang Tianwang. Otherwise, people's words are terrifying, how can Yang Tianwang alone be able to defeat the mouth of the stake? It's not all because the helper is doing his best to protect the talents. But since Yang Yizhao left the Pavilion, he did not have any great achievements in the Pavilion, and he couldn't share his worries for the helper. As long as Yang Yizhao is willing to give in to the virtuous, the helper can naturally give this vacancy to Yun Huan in the name of merit. Yun Huan loves power and fame and fortune, and leaving the position of the master of the pavilion will definitely impress Yun Huan, in exchange, this military salary will naturally be captured. At the moment of crisis, for the sake of the safety of Cloudsdale City, in order to raise food and grass, he did not hesitate to break the rules and turn the tide, so it was not a favor to Cloudsdale? In this way, there is room for negotiation with Cloudsdale. After receiving this favor, Xue Tianwang must know how to reciprocate. What's more, what the helper did was beneficial to Zhaoyin and Cloud City, and it did not violate morality, Xue Tianwang was a loyal and righteous person, and he would definitely be able to support him. ”

"If it's just for military salaries, it's a lot of money. And it has become a habit to leave the Pavilion to serve Yang Yizhao as the main one, and hard changes will inevitably cause disharmony. "Yunxi is not.

"Solving military financing is only the first step. Shicai Xiaoyezi has already said that this Yun Huan is one of the leaders of the Tutatar tribe. If you can reach an alliance with the Tuotar tribe through the line of Yunhuan, it will be a long-term solution. Now that the main battle of the imperial court and the two factions are contending, and the Yanjin Empire is eyeing and harassing from time to time, it is really an internal and external trouble. All the bloody people of Zhaoyin do not want to wave their troops north to regain the lost land, isn't this also the reason why the Heavenly King Gang created the faction? With the meager strength of the Heavenly King Gang and the people of the rivers and lakes, it is extremely difficult to recover the lost territory. However, if you can draw the line for the imperial court and unite the strength of the various tribes of Tutatar, you can form a situation of taking care of each other and jointly encircle and suppress Yanjin. Only when the war is won can the Tianwang Gang truly raise their eyebrows and become the first in the world. And the helper can also fulfill the long-cherished wish of his ancestors and become a national hero. ”

When Yunxi heard this, there seemed to be a smile on the corner of his mouth, but his tone was still indifferent: "You haven't said how to solve the matter of leaving the pavilion." ”

Xiao Yezi saw that Yun Xi's face was a little loose, held his breath, and said in a low voice: "Helper, you don't know, this Yun Huan and Yang Yizhao are friends. Xiao Yezi said that someone recommended Yun Huan - this person is Yang Yizhao. As long as Yun Huan ascends the throne, Yang Yizhao will be willing to abdicate and make way for Xian. ”

Hearing this, Yun Xi's face suddenly changed: "It turned out to be a change of soup but not a change of medicine." ”

Xiao Yezi kowtowed deeply and said, "If there is no Yang Yizhao, how can Xiao Yezi get acquainted with Yun Huan?" Please help the master to read on the fate of Yang Yizhao's introduction, and also give Yang Yizhao a credit. As long as Yang Yizhao is given a place to stay away from Shanglingyan and Liren Pavilion at that time, he himself will not be a force worth considering. ”

Yun Xi turned his back and thought about it for a long time, and suddenly said faintly: "You are pleading for Yang Yizhao so much, do you also have any selfish intentions?" ”

Xiao Yezi kowtowed and said: "The helper forgot, Xiao Yezi has been poisoned into his lungs, and he will probably live for a long time, where is there any selfishness?" It's just a matter of giving you a piece of advice before you die, and doing something good for your former friend. Otherwise, when Xiao Yezi dies, I won't have a friend to burn paper for me, wouldn't it be very pitiful? ”

Yunxi was silent, only silently with his back to Xiao Yezi, as if he was thinking and worrying. After a while, Yun Xi turned around: "You're different." He withdrew his hand, turned his back to Xiao Yezi, and said, "Although you are talking wildly, it seems that you are planning for me everywhere, but who you want to defend, I can't hear it." ”

Xiao Yezi bit her lip, lowered her head, and was silent.

"You know that some people have some things that are taboo for me, but you still have to come to fight hard, but you just want to take a salary from the bottom of the kettle and save his life in exchange for me." Yunxi leaned down, looked into her eyes, and sighed for a while.

Xiao Yezi raised his head and looked into his eyes, and for the first time noticed a trace of premature aging in his eyes, and even the sideburns unconsciously grew a few strands of gray hair.

"You're always so smart that you can't hide anything." Xiao Yezi felt sad and couldn't bear to look at him again. He reached out and grabbed her jaw, causing her to look at him again. His eyes were as gentle as their first acquaintance, so gentle, so gentle that she was still fascinated by them. But she already has Yang Yizhao, so she can't be tempted anymore.

Yunxi looked at her with a wave of eyes, as smart as him, and had experienced youth like him, how could she not know that she already belonged to her? He saw that her cheeks still had traces of the sleeves of his robe, but her eyebrows were the same as before.

From the very beginning when he saw her, he was amazed at how there could be such a girl, who had both the cunning and intelligence of Qingmei and the innocence and kindness of Jing Ying. He has lost two lovers, and for some reason, he let her shadow drill into his heart.

Seeing her gives you a compensatory comfort. It's just that he was too extreme at that time to cultivate the feeling he wanted, thinking that she was just a child and would always be guided by himself to grow up. But I don't know that children also have hearts and their own ideas. Before she could understand her heart, something went wrong with his body. He couldn't control himself and did many things that he didn't want to do, but he couldn't do it back.

His body was getting worse day by day, and after retreating and adjusting this number of times, his strength and state slowly recovered.

thought that strength could overcome the emptiness in his heart, but looking into her eyes at the moment, he was suddenly scared - afraid that one day, he would grow old alone and leave alone. Perhaps in principle, he should let go and give up people and feelings that do not belong to him. But he is really reluctant to give up on himself, and he is unwilling to devote himself to the world of one person like this.

He still wanted her, wanted to be with her. He unconsciously reached over to touch her hair, but halfway through, he stopped again and sighed silently.

She already has her heart, so why should I force it?

Xiao Yezi raised his eyes, only to find that his hand stopped in mid-air. He was stunned, a little embarrassed, and his hand went down to her pulse.

As soon as he got on it, he noticed that something was wrong.

- Why, there are no signs of poisoning?

He dragged her to the table in disbelief and took her pulse seriously. After confirming it several times, he was convinced that she was fine.

It's really strange, she obviously exudes the smell of Ren Qingmei's poison on her body, and her poisoned appearance is clearly revealed, but there is no change in her body?

He took a silver needle and ordered her to stick out her tongue. He took a needle and picked at the tip of her tongue, but the blood that came out was normal.

She really wasn't poisoned.

For a moment, he didn't know whether to let go of his heart or mention his heart, his thoughts fluctuated, and he turned his back and thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of the reason. He turned his head and looked at her misty appearance, and his heart softened.

"Don't go, stay with me."

"I've only been around for a few days anyway. If you want me to accompany you, I'll just accompany you. Xiao Yezi rubbed the wound and smiled lightly, "As long as it's not too demanding, such as marrying you or something, you can do whatever you want." ”

Looking at her calm smile, he could easily detect the change in her mentality, and he secretly smiled helplessly.

"Don't worry, you won't die for a while, and I'm not that boring." He turned and walked out of the cave and drifted away. Xiao Yezi watched his back disappear behind the corner, and his heart was full of thoughts.
