The two talked and laughed like this, and went back to Liao Changkong's palace all the way.

"Lord Qi, the prince invites you to go to the study to discuss important matters."

It's just that as soon as the front foot stepped into the mansion, the little guy came over to invite Qi Xiaoxian, it seems that Liao Changkong has sent someone to guard them for a long time, just waiting for them to come back.

Ruan Di looked at Qi Xiaoxian with some uneasiness, it was difficult for Qi Xiaoxian to call Qi Xiaoxian so late that something had happened in the past, she is now used to this kind of peaceful life, and in her heart she doesn't want Qi Xiaoxian to participate in the partisan struggle anymore.

"Well, you go back to the house and wait for me first."

Qi Xiaoxian seemed to have seen the concerns in Ruan Di's heart, and didn't say much, comforting Ruan Di a few words.

They are now in the palace, and people have to bow their heads under the eaves, so it is impossible for them to stay out of Liao Changkong's affairs.

"Lord, why did you call me over today?"

In the study, Liao Changkong's brows were furrowed, as if he was troubled by a tricky matter, and his brows were slightly relieved when he saw Qi Xiaoxian coming.

"Brother Qi, there seems to be some unrest in the palace recently, not only have none of the spies sent by this king come back, but the king's mother also said that the emperor seems to have made the emperor's brother the crown prince."

It was not easy for him to pull Liao Shuitian down from that position, how could he watch him sit on that throne again.

Qi Xiaoxian knew that the emperor must have alienated Liao Changkong because of Bai Xue's matter, and he could be regarded as shooting himself in the foot this time. But come to think of it, he definitely can't say it so bluntly.

"Lord Wang, you better take back the spies in the palace."

Qi Xiaoxian pondered for a moment and slowly spoke, Liao Changkong is an arrogant lord, and naturally he can't lose face at this time.

"The emperor is now in the prime of life, so naturally he doesn't want to see someone coveting his position, not to mention that the current saint is also left by the previous competition, it is impossible to have no means, so those spies of yours should not be able to hide from him."

Qi Xiaoxian's words made Liao Changkong fall into deep thought, he thought that he was smart enough to arrange spies in the palace, but he didn't expect that the emperor was also prepared, it seems that this estrangement is not without reason.

The old emperor Xu had already sensed his intentions, but he didn't believe that Liao Shuitian hadn't sent any spies in.

Could it be that Liao Shuitian has been missing for so many years, and there are still some hidden forces in the palace, it seems that he underestimated Liao Shuitian.

"Brother Qi, what you said is very right, it is this king who has ignored these problems, if it weren't for you in this king today, I'm afraid there would be big trouble."

Liao Changkong's words were sincere, although Qi Xiaoxian didn't care about things many times, he saw things quite thoroughly, which is why he valued him so much.

Even if they don't plan to get involved in the dispute now, they can be of use in the future, not to mention that they are still living in the palace.

Some things are forced to do this, and Qi Xiaoxian has no choice, just like he knows that Ruan Di does not want to participate in the party competition, he still comes to Liao Changkong's study now.

"The prince is a person who is favored by God, but I didn't think of this at this moment, I believe that even if Qi doesn't talk about this matter today, the prince will figure it out."

Liao Changkong laughed, he was very useful for Qi Xiaoxian's sycophant, but he didn't expect this elm-like Qi Xiaoxian to have a day of slapping people's sycophants, and the surprises he brought him were simply too many.

"If the prince has nothing else to do, Qi will retire first."

Qi Xiaoxian smiled helplessly, this sycophant was not something he had to learn, but Liao Changkong's character made him have to say something nice.

He had long seen that Liao Changkong's character would never be the emperor of the Fenghuan Dynasty, how could such an unstable character be compared with Liao Shuitian, and now he finally knew why the old emperor had established Liao Shuitian as the crown prince before, and it was not all the queen's problem.

Qi Xiaoxian returned to his courtyard, to say that Liao Changkong tried his best to win him over, and he also set up a courtyard for him in the palace.

It's just that his plan may have failed, neither he nor Ruan Di are greedy for fame and fortune, and this courtyard is just a temporary place to settle now.

"Husband, you're back, what did the prince say to you? I'm afraid it's those court things again. ”

Ruan Di leaned back on the bed, and there was a trace of sorrow between her eyebrows.

As far as she is concerned, she naturally doesn't want to join in this endless dispute, but she knows Qi Xiaoxian's distress, Qi Yun's husband is the second prince of the dynasty, so it makes sense that Qi Xiaoxian should help more.

"Madam, I know what you are thinking, but this court matter does not mean that I can retreat and retreat, please understand."

Qi Xiaoxian grabbed Ruan Di's waist and sighed in his heart, after all, he didn't have enough power, otherwise how could he be limited by others.

"It's okay, I understand your suffering, it's just that Liao Changkong is too insidious and cunning, he can take advantage of people like Bai Xue, not to mention you, I'm just worried that we are in the company of wolves."

Ruan Di frowned, her worries were not unreasonable, Bai Xue was already Liao Changkong's person, and he was very affectionate to him, he could be sent by him to the emperor's side to please the emperor, and what else could Liao Changkong not do.

"I understand, madam, you don't have to worry about this, I will arrange everything, I also know that this Qi Xiaoxian is not a loyal person, you can rest assured that I have my own methods."

Even in Liao Changkong's palace, they could speak freely, Ruan Di and he had already replaced the guards guarding the door with their own people, so it was absolutely impossible for the conversation between them to leak out.

Their son-in-law is the head of the Four Dragons, and the Four Dragons Sect has more outstanding martial arts talents, and Long Yi has arranged manpower for them early on.

Ruan Di and Qi Xiaoxian were lying on the bed together, but they were thinking about different things, and she also saw the profits of cosmetics during the day, as long as she found a shop that could be rented, then she naturally had a reason to break away from Liao Changkong.

As long as she has her own shop in Fenghuan City, it is equivalent to having a foothold, and one thing that is very different from other dynasties in the Phoenix Dynasty is that they respect businessmen, and those who do business are quite respected in Fenghuan.

Of course, this does not include small merchants and hawkers, it is those businessmen who are already famous, and she Ruan Di wants to be such a person, with the appreciation of the old emperor, Liao Changkong does not dare to do anything to her.
