Chapter 178: Easier said than done

Yang Xi 'rubbed' and 'rubbed' the faintly painful temples, sighed in a low voice and said, "Take Qing Xuan over at night......

"Your Majesty doesn't go to Concubine Niangniang's side?" Zhang Derong asked with some surprise, in the past, His Majesty wanted to pamper Concubine Shuniang, but he went directly to the Qinghe Palace, "Is it in the 'Spring' Hua Palace?" He felt that he had better ask clearly, lest he would make a mistake and not know what was going on when he turned his head down.

"Jingyang Palace," Yang Xi said bluntly.

"Oh......" The doubts in Zhang Derong's heart were even worse, but he didn't dare to ask anything, so he could only laugh and say, "Dinner has been prepared, Your Majesty can use some?" ”

"I'm not very hungry, I don't want to eat, I ordered to go down, just prepare some snacks and tea in the evening, if there are any fresh fruits, just prepare a few" Yang Xi shook his head, he had no appetite at all.

Although he also wanted to go to the Qinghe Palace, but the Qinghe Palace had Lu Yuan and that Ye Wu there, he was full of discomfort, these two people, now they are nominally dragon guards, but they are not the ones who protect his palace, but the ones who protect the Qinghe Palace.

Yang Xi didn't really understand why Chen Qingxuan dared to enter the palace under his name? Later, when he came out of the Qingmei Garden, he understood that even if there was really something, Lu Yuan and Ye Wu would protect her out of the capital, and Zhuzi Yao was obviously hers, even if it wasn't, Jiangnan's errand also made him fall to Chen Qingxuan's side.

Destroying the four families in Jiangnan, after all, he nodded his head, and he also had many benefits afterwards, at least, there was no shortage of silver for the time being, but Jiangnan taxes, the problem also existed.

Yang Xi knew that if he wanted these officials not to be greedy, he couldn't do it at all - sometimes, even corrupt officials were much easier to call than those honest officials.

For example, Lu Zhan was not greedy, but Lu Zhan had the 'spending' fee provided by the Xuanji Mansion at that time, and the construction of the Lu Mansion was not much different from that of the Imperial Palace.

is not a greedy official, and he still has money, so it is no wonder that the first emperor had all kinds of opinions about him, and finally he was ruthless and had to kill him.

If such a person does not kill him, even if he does not rebel, no one will be able to protect his descendants in the future, will the heirs rebel? Lu Zhan has money, but where does his money come from, and it is not the worship of the common people of the Great Zhou Kingdom? However, he only cleverly used some means to turn some illegal money into legitimate income.

Thinking of this, Yang Xi sighed again, Lu Zhan is definitely a genius, and the things he 'made' out, I am afraid that even if the Great Zhou Kingdom changes his surname and the mountains and rivers change hands, it will not affect his overall situation.

This is why Chen Qingxuan was able to escape the capital of life under his fierce pursuit at that time. He has built a huge network of relationships, established a perfect business model, and added the care of the former queen...... Ay......

The first emperor was in too much of a hurry

They don't understand this strange situation at all, and for such a person, they can't treat it with common sense, so what if they try their best to kill Lu Zhan? Didn't you put the entire Great Zhou Kingdom in danger?

Everything now, looking at the surface of the calm 'waves', but what will happen in the end, Yang Xi knows in his heart that if the current Great Zhou Kingdom cannot be controlled, then the current Southern Xia Kingdom is his last portrayal.

Yang Xu led an army of 300,000 to invade the Southern Xia Kingdom, burning, killing and looting along the way, and corpses were all over the field - he was taking revenge, taking revenge for the land war that the Southern Xia Kingdom borrowed troops to besiege and kill back then.

After all, one day, he will come back again, and at that time, the territory of the Great Zhou Kingdom will also be ruined. Even, Yang Xi had vaguely guessed Chen Qingxuan's overall plan. Let Yang Xu lead the 300,000 troops of the Great Zhou State to attack the city and plunder the land, but the general Ruan faced the army of the Great Zhou State in Qingzhou, under the pretext that the Great Zhou State was fetted, and there was no way to return to the court.

Waiting for Yang Xu to kill all over again, when the time comes, that General Ruan is killing back and going back, saving Yin Pu, the monarch of the Southern Xia Kingdom, and coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, or to kill Yin Pu and change the dynasty, it is not a big problem.

The fortunes of the Southern Xia Kingdom have been lost, and everything is a matter of course. Or, what kind of holy 'woman' can 'get' a child, and when the time comes, support that child as the king, the nominal general Ruan, but in fact Lu Ruan, the adopted son of Lu Zhan, can also command the world.

Yang Xu is the concubine of the former emperor, borrowing the power of the Southern Xia Kingdom, plus Chen Qingxuan's support, it seems that it will not be difficult to do anything when the time comes.

And if you want to keep this throne of yours, how easy is it to say?

Unless, that impostor Chen Qingxuan, the actual Lu Phoenix, can stand on his side - revealing her identity in Qingmei Garden, if she doesn't use the dragon guard, Yang Xi has already calculated, as long as she is put under house arrest at that time, he will be able to win.

However, even he didn't expect that she would dare to call the dragon guards in the palace, in fact, it was a demonstration to him, if he dared to move, she would not wait for Yang Xu to come back, and now she would take the dragon guards and go out first.

He really has no malicious intentions, he just doesn't want to sit still but obviously, Qing Xuan misunderstood, after the Qingmeiyuan incident, the relationship between her and him deteriorated directly, and after two days, he went to Qinghe Hall to reconcile, but the result was a closed door.

When she called the dragon guard, he was very angry, but when she thought about it, if she didn't do this, wouldn't she be able to learn from the queen to kill herself?

"Your Majesty, what if the lady refuses to come?" Zhang Derong thought about it for a long time, and still said the scruples in his heart, this is a lady concubine, no better than other concubines, hearing His Majesty's grace, he will be happy to heaven, and he will dress up beautifully, and he will come over immediately.

Most likely, she went directly to invite someone, but she didn't want to come at all.

Therefore, Zhang Derong thought about it for a long time, but he was still bold and asked directly, so as not to invite no one when he got it, His Majesty was angry and took himself out of anger.

"You go to my study and take my short sword, she will come over soon" Yang Xi suddenly laughed, feeling that he knew her better.

"Huh?" Zhang Derong nodded and hurriedly agreed.

It was night, a blue 'colored' soft sedan chair carried Chen Qingxuan to Jingyang Palace - as Yang Xi expected, Zhang Derong carried the sedan chair to pick up people, which was the concubine Niangniang said directly, not going

There was no reason to look for one, but when Zhang Derong took out the short sword, Chen Qingxuan didn't say anything, went in to change clothes, made a small sedan chair, and followed them to Jingyang Palace.

"Niangniang go in, I'll wait outside" The small sedan chair got off the sedan chair in front of Jingyang Palace, Zhang Derong personally reached out to help Chen Qingxuan down, and said with a low smile, "Your Majesty has ordered, just invite Niangniang to go in"

"Okay" Chen Qingxuan nodded, in fact, she also wanted to know, what Yang Xi was going to do? He wants to reconcile with her, she knows, but he played with himself in the Qingmei Garden, and now he says that he wants to reconcile, how easy is it to say?

If in Qingmei Garden, she didn't inform Ye Wu in advance to prepare, then now, I am afraid that she has become a prisoner, even now, she does not want to leave the palace, and she does not want to leave the capital of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Perhaps, she is his last bit of bargaining chip, if Yang Xu rebels, the first person Emperor Yinxi wants to kill is her

In Jingyang Palace, the lights are bright, but just like last time, there is no Xiao Lux on duty inside, everyone is waiting outside, when Chen Qingxuan turns a screen, inside, under the crystal bead curtain, a young man in white, with his back to her, his hair is as green as ink, just tied with an ordinary silk ribbon, scattered behind his head.

Hearing the slight sound of footsteps, Yang Xi turned around and saw that Chen Qingxuan was still wearing a silver-white 'colored' long skirt and an ordinary beard, standing outside the crystal curtain, just looking at him.

Immediately do it yourself, open the curtain, and smile: "Please come in"

Chen Qingxuan walked in, this should be Yang Xi's usual place to sleep, a carved 'flower' big 'bed', inlaid with beads, 'jade' and other jewels, hung with ink painting of white silk mosquito net, on the other side of the window put a low couch, the incense burner on the table, burning fine sandalwood, the fragrance is curling.

On the ground, there is a piano table, and a guqin is placed on it.

Chen Qingxuan has been to Jingyang Palace several times, but it is usually the outer hall, and this is the first time to enter his bedroom - I heard that Emperor Yinxi has never summoned that concubine to spend the night in Jingyang Palace.

"Your Majesty, it's good here," Chen Qingxuan said.

"If you like it, please take a seat" Yang Xi smiled and motioned for her to sit down.

"Your Majesty summons, I don't know what to order?" Chen Qingxuan didn't plan to sit down, and asked directly, "Your Majesty should say it first, so as not to let me guess."

"Recently, the fresh tunes composed by the musicians in the palace are not bad, and I specially invite Qing to come over and appreciate them" Yang Xi smiled and pointed to the guqin on the piano table.

"Your Majesty wants to play the harp?" Chen Qingxuan was a little surprised, last time she said that his piano skills were not 'fine' enough, could it be that he has grown up recently, and he still asks her to listen to the piano?

"Of course," Yang Xi nodded and smiled.

"Oh, okay then" Chen Qingxuan sat down comfortably on the low couch near the window, but found that there was a small table in front of the low couch, on which there was a lotus-leaf jade fruit bowl, which contained various 'color' fresh fruits, and a cup of tea, "Even if Your Majesty's piano skills are 'fine', I don't have to reward you."

Yang Xi had already sat down cross-legged in front of the piano table, stretched out his hand to tune the strings, and was stunned when he heard the words, and smiled bitterly for a while.

"Laughing at what?" Chen Qingxuan rolled her eyes and said dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom, if you have reached this point, I am only afraid of ...... It's unprecedented," Yang Xi smiled.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to perfunctory me" Chen Qingxuan shook his head and said, "I didn't ask Your Majesty to stroke the piano for me, don't say how aggrieved you look, like this - since Your Majesty is reluctant, forget it, I will go back." With that, she got up and left.

"Qing Xuan-" Yang Xi hurriedly got up and grabbed her, "That's not what I meant, don't get me wrong"

"What do you call me?" Chen Qingxuan was stunned and asked with a frown.
