Upon hearing these three names, the casual expression on Yue Piaoling's face also subsided.
Because these three people traveled together with the eldest princess, it also meant that a signal had been released.
First of all, there was the Xichang Changgong, Yu Kuixie. He followed the eldest princess south, which was not beyond Yue Piaoling's expectations.
After all, resetting the West Factory was originally a political transaction between Huhuang's lineage and Emperor Xuan.
In the past, the imperial power had declined, and the power of the prime minister had become more of a decoration. The court, controlled by the theories of various schools of thought, had almost completely eclipsed the Daxuan royal family.
If there hadn't been a King Wuwei with military power in the north, Emperor Xuan might not have been able to survive the moment when Yu Cangmiao's He Zong Lian Heng continued to weaken the power of each school.
But relying on Yu Cangmiao alone was not enough, so Emperor Xuan approached the eldest princess who had begun to take charge of the Huanghuang lineage, her biological sister.
However, everyone knows that the royal family has no family ties. If he wants to get some help, Emperor Xuan must make some compromises and concessions, one of which is to reset the West Factory.
Later, it was also because of the intervention of the Huanghuang lineage that it became easier for Yu Cangmiao to take advantage of the struggles of the various university clans to consume each other.
However, as the imperial power re-established its prestige and Prime Minister Quan was able to confront the ministers head-on, Emperor Xuan began to backlog the living space of the West Factory with the functions in charge of the East Factory.
This has also led to the fact that although Xichang still has a certain amount of power today, it is unable to create even the slightest turmoil in the Xuanhuang Domain, the center of the Great Xuan.
The next most important figure is Luoyunhou Li Shizhou. His father has a considerable degree of prestige among the princes, but he died in an assassination due to an accident more than ten years ago.
His death is still a mystery until now when Emperor Xuan came to the throne. In order to win over all the princes, Li Shizhou, who was still a child at the time, was granted the title of Marquis of Luo Yun.
Because Li Shizhou often looked childish, cute, and innocent, Emperor Xuan also showed his love for Li Shizhou, which could even be said to be partial.
Even as an adult, he would occasionally behave childishly, and even because of his excessive playful behavior, he was even called the First Harm of the Imperial City in the Xuanhuang Domain, the center of Daxuan.
However, when facing those ministers, he showed a meek and courteous look, which made some people secretly despise him for bullying the weak and shying away from the strong.
But with Li Shizhou's status, even in this central place where power gathers, few people can really stand up to him.
Emperor Xuan's preference is one, his father's legacy is the second, the identity of the princes is the third, and the fourth is his mother, the daughter of the contemporary head of the Tianjian Sect, Huanhua Luojian, Bi Ruanzhu.
Therefore, the appearance of Qi Cangqing, the second elder of Tianjian Sect, is most likely because he wants to protect Li Shizhou.
Especially since I recently heard that Tianjian Sect intends to use Li Shizhou's identity as Luo Yunhou to conduct certain transactions with the imperial court, Li Shizhou's safety is naturally the top priority.
"Things are a little troublesome." Yue Piaoling frowned slightly. He didn't know why Qin Fan wanted them to pass through the secret of Linxue Nuanxiang Pavilion. He wanted to pay more attention to the whereabouts of the eldest princess, but now there were two more people who shouldn't have appeared. .
Especially at this critical moment, a slight mistake may ignite a fire that will burn down the entire Xuanyang Territory.
Coupled with the fact that the young Marquis has the second generation of power and the second generation of martial arts, it is no exaggeration to say that he is an arrogant and domineering young master.
"It will take about one to two days for the news to reach Xuanyang Territory. We can ensure that the Emperor is informed before the eldest princess and the others arrive at Xuanyang Territory."
After the Blood Widow thought for a moment, her expression gradually calmed down.
Seeing Yue Piao Ling, he breathed a sigh of relief. Now that they were in the Xuanhuang Realm, it was useless to worry. Besides, Qin Fan's lineup was now very luxurious, if they really got going.
The eldest princess, Yu Kuixie, and the second elder will all blow their brains out for you, but after that, you will be in big trouble.
"Actually, I don't quite understand why the Emperor is so wary of the eldest princess?" The Blood Widow frowned slightly, because she had heard from Qin Fan that the Phoenix Protector lineage was an ally with him.
Could it be that just because the real boss of the Huanghuang lineage, the Queen Mother, took the initiative to hide behind the scenes and let the eldest princess step up and take the helm, would this relationship break down?
Yue Piaoling was silent for a moment and said:
"You haven't seen her. If you have seen her, you should know what kind of woman she is. In other words, she doesn't even look like a person."
"ah?"
"The Lord said of her, she is made of ten things."
"Which ten types?"
"The liquid of poisonous snakes, the charm of foxes, the ice and snow in the North Sea, the rocks on the Tianshan Mountains, the bravery of lions, the cruelty of jackals, the patience of camels, the wisdom of people, a ghost from the eighteenth level of hell, plus... It is as vast as the sky and has endless ambitions.
She shouldn't be a woman, otherwise the position of Emperor Xuan must belong to her, but it is precisely because she is a woman that she is given the opportunity to achieve great things that others cannot.
This is her misfortune and her luck. "
"so......"
"Such a person will have no allies. Did you know there is a spider called a black widow?"
The Blood Widow was silent. She licked her lips subconsciously. The charm she had shown due to laziness in the past disappeared. She stared at Yue Piaoling closely, her gaze seemed to look through him and towards the woman.
Just like a poisonous spider about to prey on its prey, a black widow has already eaten a male spider!
"If it were a few decades ago, you wouldn't necessarily be worse than her. It's just that time will change a lot of things and erase a lot of enthusiasm."
Yue Piaoling shuddered subconsciously, but her evaluation did not change.
Then he secretly clenched his palm, fearing that the Blood Widow would go crazy and suddenly fuck him.
But the Blood Widow took a deep breath, smiled calmly and said: "You are right, I am different now from before, but..."
She didn't say anything else, but Yue Piaoling could clearly see the fighting spirit in her eyes, as well as a hint of unknown joy and excitement.
Enthusiasm will indeed be wiped out over time, but it will often be triggered by a small flame and ignite a blazing flame that burns the sky.
Besides, one poisonous spider like the black widow is enough.
...
The same is the Xuanhuang Domain.
A magnificent mansion stands not far from the palace. The plaque above the door used to have the three characters "Prime Minister's Palace" written on it, but now it reads "Yu Palace".
And in the center of the vast backyard, there is a sparkling green lake. In the center of the lake is a small boat, and from a distance, an elegant man in Chinese clothes is quietly fishing.
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Li is here to visit." Bai Feisheng, dressed in white, stood by the lake like a sculpture. However, when he noticed a visitor outside the door, he immediately informed Yu Cangmiao who was fishing in the center of the lake.
"Invite him in." He replied calmly, as if there was no change in tone due to the identity of the visitor.
Yu Cangmiao's eyes were always looking intently at the direction where the fishing line was hanging.
Until Li Taike, led by Bai Feisheng, had reached the lakeside. After a slight sigh, he silently put away the fishing rod. As his left hand reached into the lake and flicked it gently, the boat began to sail towards the shore at an extremely fast speed.
Today's Li Taike has changed a lot from when they met before. There is always a hint of sadness hidden in his eyebrows, and his white hair, which was originally very clean and tidy, is also a little messy.
He doesn't want to become the prime minister, but in the current environment, he is the most suitable to be the prime minister.
The ministers did not want a powerful prime minister to ascend to the throne, and Emperor Xuan did not want the prime minister's power to decline. They also wanted a suitable candidate to act as a lubricant between the two parties.
After all, today's world is becoming more and more chaotic, and the major universities in the center of the court also believe that internal strife should not continue.
Especially Yu Cangmiao's last actions before resigning have obviously pushed King Wuwei to a critical point. No one knows when he will break out, but there will definitely be a day when he breaks out.
Therefore, in the end, Li Taike, who had been the master of the Wensheng Temple for many years, could only step forward and act as a messenger for friendly exchanges between the monarch and his ministers.
"You should be able to wait for a cup of tea." Seeing Li Taike about to speak, Yu Cangmiao pointed to a small pavilion not far away and said.
Li Taike sighed and nodded, and then the two of them walked to the small pavilion. Watching Yu Cangmiao brewing tea in a leisurely manner, Li Taike's originally anxious heart calmed down a lot.
Just because the other party's movements are really pleasing to the eye, and there is a sense of elegance and beauty in every gesture.
"The first cup of tea tastes too strong, please wait." Li Taike was about to lift the tea cup but Yu Cangmiao stopped him directly.
After he put down the teacup, smelling the aroma of tea, he felt truly calm.
"Very annoying, very busy, very messy, can't figure it out, can't figure it out, can't figure it out, right?" Li Taike, who raised his teacup for the second time, put down his teacup again because of Yu Cangmiao's words.
"That's right! I shouldn't be this prime minister!"
"But apart from you, there is no one else more suitable. You have enough prestige, and all the university leaders will give you some respect. With your age and status, His Majesty cannot push you too much.
You can not only ensure that the prime minister does not become a blind yes-man, but also play a role in easing the relationship between the two parties.
After all, I have done too much in some things before, and they have lost too much trust in His Majesty, so now it is up to you to re-establish a monarch-minister relationship that is suitable for the current court.
This is also one of the prime minister's responsibilities. "
Yu Cangmiao picked up the tea cup and took a sip. The faint fragrance of tea spread throughout the small pavilion as he spoke softly.
Li Taike's eyes were a little complicated. The young man in front of him clearly saw everything clearly. He also believed that the other party was absolutely capable of handling this matter.
But he chose a decision that he couldn't understand at all.
"Let's get down to business. Apart from those nagging and complaining, I am not a suitable person to talk to. If you must say something, be careful that I will spread your words throughout the entire imperial city."
Li Taike took a deep breath, and his snow-white beard trembled three times. He didn't think the other party was joking, because he didn't think it was strange what Yu Cangmiao did now.
Because before he stepped into this Yu Mansion, he saw dozens of corpses piled up outside, and there was a sign next to them for them to claim, otherwise they would come to the door in person three days later.
Li Taike knew that some ministers couldn't wait any longer. They were too afraid of Yu Cangmiao. When their fear of a person reached a certain limit, they would have murderous intentions.
As for the result, those corpses were good proof, and no one thought Yu Cangmiao's warning was a bluff.
As the first generation of powerful prime minister in the past century, he must have many people's little secrets in his hands, so whether private or public, he has a hundred ways to play tricks on any minister in the court.
What's more, according to Li Taike's knowledge, some ministers also reached a limit of fear and chose to secretly express their intention to surrender to Yu Cangmiao.
This will not change whether Yu Cangmiao is the prime minister or not, because people like Yu Cangmiao no longer rely on a position to achieve themselves.
"The first thing is that those who deserve to be killed must be killed. I believe Your Majesty will agree with it. Besides, this is one of the reasons why I still stay in the Imperial City."
Once again, before Li Taike spoke, Yu Cangmiao blocked what he was about to say.
With a big gasp, Li Taike's beard curled up again, then he picked up the tea cup and drank it in one gulp, and said angrily:
"Then there's no need for me to talk about the second thing, right?"
"About Xuanyang Domain, about Wuyou Village Master Qin Fan, and about Yankuang Mountain, right?" Yu Cangmiao glanced at Li Taike indifferently.
Li Taike's beard no longer curled up at this time. He spread his hands helplessly and sighed:
"Settling the beast tide is a good thing, especially eradicating a million ferocious beasts in one fell swoop is a rare victory, but..."
“But there are two points that have caused some people’s greed and uneasiness. One is the huge interests represented by the corpses of the giant ape king and millions of ferocious beasts, and the other is the strength shown by Qin Fan.
There is no official information coming back yet, but spies from various agencies should have investigated everything clearly.
Especially the forces behind the scenes who secretly control one of the four, six gangs, nine gates, and thirteen villages. When they know that their money tree is about to be completely chopped off, they will definitely start to warm up in the court anxiously.
Just wait for the official news to come out and detonate it together, right? "
"Forehead......"
"But His Majesty's attitude is not like this. He should be prepared to suppress this matter forcefully, neither commending nor punishing, as if nothing happened."
"Forehead......"
"You don't understand his thoughts, and neither do I, but now Daxuan doesn't need to make the first move, at least on the surface, it's completely unnecessary, so is there any problem?"
Li Taike was stunned. He seriously doubted that any minister had reported the news to Yu Cangmiao before he came, but he came over as soon as he came to court.
He even used the teleportation method driven by Wen Qi, whoosh whoosh whoosh. At this small speed, he couldn't believe that anyone was faster than him. Even the pigeons and eagles were definitely slower than him!
"Go back. You still have things to do. The north is much more important than the south. Besides, there has been some movement in the east recently."
"Eastern side? What's wrong with Dao Domain?"
Yu Cangmiao didn't say anything more, but just made a farewell gesture to Li Taike.
But after Li Taike took the first step, he suddenly turned around and said:
"There's something wrong with your reaction. You wouldn't show off your intelligence like this in the past. This shows that you are actually very interested in this incident in the south.
Yan Kuangshan is just a small person. Apart from your initial guess, you didn't even mention it later. As for that little benefit, it doesn't deserve such attention to you.
So it's Qin Fan, right? "
Yu Cangmiao smiled: "So what do you think my relationship is with him? Friends? Relatives? Enemies? Even lovers?"
Li Taike was silent. According to his information, there was no possibility of contact between the two. The only thing they had in common was that they were young enough.
"Actually, I'm not familiar with him at all, I've never even met him." Yu Cangmiao looked at Li Taike seriously.
Li Taike frowned slightly. He felt that what the other party said was true, but...
"In three days, a lot of people will die, and that's what you should care about."
There was a hint of impatience in Yu Cangmiao's tone, and she waved her hand to ask Bai Feisheng to carry Li Taike out directly.
Li Taike's beard stood up angrily again. He was a dignified prime minister, so in order to save his face, he consciously withdrew.
At the same time, he also put aside the speculation about Yu Cangmiao and Qin Fan. Compared with this matter, he was more concerned about which unsighted officials would be imprisoned three days later because of some black information suddenly exposed. His family was confiscated and his family was exterminated.
After Li Taike left, Yu Cangmiao continued to calmly return to the lake to fish. His heart was as calm and calm as the entire lake.
