Step by step, she cut off his wings and imprisoned him in the Fu King's Mansion, completely isolating him as her caged bird.

But did she imprison him because she wanted to keep him?

No, she just wanted to eradicate him silently.

In fact, when Xi Hongrui asked Yu Luyan to live separately from him, he was vaguely aware of this intention.

When Raid Hongrui cut off contact with him, it meant that she already had the intention of destroying him.

But at that time, there was nothing he could do, if he moved, he would anger the attack on Hongrui faster, and he was still betting on the lowest possible union.

Now he knew that there had never been that option, and in that case, what else did he have to worry about?

Ning Lan and Bai Guogong were probably somewhat related, but Ning Lan didn't really plan to unite with him.

This old fox, who has been mixed up for so many years, will not easily put himself in a dangerous situation.

All he needs is an attitude, an attitude that he does not approve of or oppose, and with this attitude, he can send a signal to everyone.

Another new outlet was born.

The struggle for power, in the final analysis, is the struggle for imperial power, and as the co-holder of the crown prince, he is the most competitive one among the current royal families.

In the past, the power of the royal family was weak, but now it is different, and Emperor Chongwen, the great Buddha, switched camps and joined them.

He may not really help them, but he will help whoever is weak.

Ning Lan stroked his legs, at least in the eyes of most people, he was still weak.

Therefore, before the death of Emperor Chongwen, he had always been able to get the support of the old emperor and reproduce the path of attacking Hongrui.

As long as the old emperor lasts a few more years......

……

However, he did not expect that as soon as he thought so, he heard the news that the old emperor was "dying."

After Emperor Chongwen is now disabled, of course, he hopes that there will be some panacea to restore him with one click rather than hard workout.

Hearing that the immortal masters had refined the elixir, he was immediately full of joy and hurriedly asked people to offer it.

However, Emperor Chongwen was not a fool, he would eat whatever others gave him, so naturally he had to let people try it first.

After taking the elixir, the drug tester suddenly felt like drinking fine wine, listening to the sound of immortals, fluttering like immortals, and his spirit was uplifted, and he just wanted to dance and sing.

Even after the effect of the medicine passed, he never forgot the taste of ecstasy, and said that after taking the medicine, he really saw the gods!

Emperor Chongwen was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly asked people to bring the pill and take a pill.

After taking the medicine, I was as excited as a drug tester, and all the pain was gone, and I laughed every time.

After the effect of the medicine, he only felt that he had fallen back from the immortal body back to the mortal body, and he was uncomfortable, so he immediately rewarded the Taoist Academy, allowing the immortal elders to refine more elixirs.

At first, Naruhito was very happy about this, and even he was moved, so is the elixir really so miraculous?

Only Lin Juan was extremely anxious, and he didn't even care about Ning Lan's order to tell her not to act rashly, but also to see him-

The pill is poisonous!

Now that Naruhito and Ning Lan have become allies, there is no need to hide it from him, and Naruhito immediately said: "But the effect of the medicine is what I have seen with my own eyes, it is indeed effective, and there is no problem. ”

Lin Juan hurriedly said: "That's not because it's effective, it's because it's mentally paralyzed, just like Wushisan, with a strong hallucinogenic effect. ”

"When I take it, I do feel relaxed and comfortable, but erysipelas will enter the body casually, accumulate more and more, and I don't know when it will break out."

"And this drug, once taken, will inevitably become addictive, and after forming dependence, you can't quit even if you want to."

"Those who are strong and strong will also be hollowed out of their bodies if they take it for a long time, not to mention the old emperor, who will die violently one day."

Naruhito: ......

"I don't know these things, how did Miss Lin know?"

Lin Juan: ......

Through this kind of thing, she will mention to Ning Lan, Naruhito is naturally impossible.

So she just looked at Ning Lan: "I don't only know about this matter, but Princess Fu also knows about it." ”

"Pills are poisonous, and it is a kind of common sense that is more popular than eyelids, and anyone who has had the same experience as me knows it."

"So, Yu Hongrui must know it."

Ning Lan: ......

In the matter of "changing the tanuki for the prince," Ning Lan had already seen the madness of attacking Hongrui, and in the matter of "poisoning," he had refreshed his understanding.

All kinds of people living in this land have a trace of awe for the emperor from the bottom of their hearts, but Xi Hongrui has no at all.

This may not be surprising, after Lin Juan revealed the information about his own time-travel, Ning Lan took out more and more future knowledge from her mouth, including-

In the future, there will be no emperor.

Everyone is equal, a great and romantic idea, so it has nurtured such a compassionate and compassionate green smoke, and it has also nurtured such a ruthless red stamen.

He now finally knows why the two sisters can be so innocent and cruel as a two-in-one.

Because there is never a contradiction, from the beginning to the end, their ideological stance is unified, and they see a group as friends and run for them.

They invariably regard another group as an enemy, and do everything they can to fight against a common enemy.

So Green Smoke can be so seamlessly disguised in front of him, because she doesn't pretend, and when she is on the same path, she can indeed be full of "kindness" to him as she appears.

But that kind of kindness is not the kind of kindness that sweeps the floor and fears the lives of ants, but a kind of supreme posture of Shunchang and rebellion, and once her "great cause" is blocked, then she can instantly become as cruel as attacking Hongrui.

She is both an "ancient" and a "future person", and she has both the "good" and the "evil" of both people.

So while they were still planning to use the old emperor to gain power for a short time, she had already decided to take a salary from the bottom of the kettle and kill the old emperor together......

Chapter 137: Don't think about it

Emperor Chongwen has been obsessed with that feeling since he got the elixir, and he has to eat one every day, which is a hundred times more energetic.

Naruhito looked at it and stepped forward with a smile: "Your Majesty, this elixir really looks effective, and the queen mother really has a heart." ”

Emperor Chongwen was originally very happy, and when he heard Naruhito's words, he made a move.

Although Xi Hongrui happily agreed to his request to replace Yan Xiaofei and didn't say much, it was always a little embarrassing to meet again.

Emperor Chongwen decided to ease relations with Xi Hongrui, so he ordered Naruto to send something to condolence.

It's not important if it's something or not, it's important that it's soft.

When Naruhito heard this, he immediately smiled and took the order and went to Fengyi Palace.

Now that Naruhito has regained power, when he comes to Fengyi Palace again, the people of Fengyi Palace finally no longer regard him as nothing.

It was only under the surface of the smile that Naruhito was keenly aware of some hidden things.

Xi Hongrui looked at him, his face was a little angry, and a little relieved, and finally looked up at Naruhito: "Thank you, Your Majesty, when you are busy with the end of the year, I will go to see him, by the way, Your Majesty's health is okay?" ”

Naruhito looked at the impeccable face of the red rui, and if he didn't know the secret of the Dao elixir, he would probably only regard it as an ordinary inquiry.

He bowed down and said with a smile on his face: "Thanks to Niangniang's blessing, the elixir offered by several immortal elders is very effective, and Your Majesty's spirit has been much better recently." ”

Xi Hongrui suddenly showed surprise on her face: "So the concubine is relieved!" ”

But then he said: "Recently, the official business has been really busy, and the palace really can't spare time, so I ask my father-in-law to take more care of His Majesty's body." ”

"The Taoist Academy has a lot of stakes on it, and it needs a competent person to look at it, so I don't feel at ease when it is handed over to others, so I ask Father-in-law Naruhito to pay more attention."

Naruhito looked up at the face of Shi Hongrui, who was wrapped in delicate makeup and couldn't see anything, smiled slightly, and bowed down: "Yes." ”

After a few words of greeting, Xi Hongrui ordered someone to send off the guests, and this time it was Ruyi and Yanyu who came to send them.

These two men were probably his closest people, but now looking at him, his expression is full of an unclear meaning.

Yan Yu diligently helped him down the steps, as if he was still the little eunuch who followed him to beg for a living, and Ruyi's expression was faint, and he couldn't see any expression.

The two of them sent him to the corridor together, Yan Yu's handsome face was like a flower, and he said softly: "Godfather, be careful." ”

Naruhito's face remained unchanged, and he smiled impeccably and waved his hands in return.

When I walked out of Fengyi Palace and looked back at this faint palace at night, my heavy eyelids cracked a slit.

Time has changed, and dodder seeds can also devour people.

……

It was Naruhito who advocated letting Yu Hongrui enter the palace and ruined Ning Lan's plan.

And now, Naruhito has thrown an olive branch to him again.

As long as one head is raised, more and more people will gather, and with the acquiescence of the old emperor, the old party will naturally converge towards Ninglan, and Naruhito is the heaviest one, but not the only one.

But it's useless, because this year's financial report is out again, and it's another profitable year.

After making profits every year, everyone has clearly realized that if they want to affect the political performance of Xi Hongrui, they rely on small probability events, and it is impossible with high probability.

She put this plate, starting from the bottom, layer by layer.

In order to sell well to the people in recent years, Xi Hongrui has been reducing taxes and taxes, taxation is the foundation of a country, and taxes are originally a matter of moving the country, but Xi Hongrui has not overturned.

Because her main idea has always been not to set up projects to collect taxes, but to expand the tax base, the tax base that has been gray piece by piece, because she has re-lit it.

Needless to say, there is such a thing as abolishing dedication and collecting fields, and along with it, there are also people who cannot be ignored and the number of people is increasing year by year.

This kind of sudden increase is not a sudden increase in the number of births, but a sudden increase in the normal labor force, that is, the legendary "black households."

Daqi's control of household registration is actually very strict, and without household registration, you can't do anything you want, but even so, there are countless black households hidden.

Having a household registration means that you have to pay taxes, and if the court has no money, it will find all kinds of clever names from the people under the bottom, and levy additional taxes, so that you can still live if you become a black household, and you can only die if you become a taxpayer.

However, if you become a black household, you cannot be considered an ordinary person, and it is even more difficult to survive, so you can only advance in two directions.

One is to become the private slave of a large local family, and the other is to fall into the grass.

Now the abolition of contribution, the abolition of private slaves, the provisions of the official decree, black and white, the relationship between the landlord and the gentry and the hired laborers, forcibly limited to the employment relationship.

No matter how they are actually enforced, with the rules and regulations in place, violating them is breaking the law, and violating the law requires them to bear the risk of violating the law.

After the appearance of a clear law, he began to fight for execution, which was the most difficult thing, and Xi Hongrui ingeniously used the people to hedge against the middle and upper classes.
