Royal study room.

"I have met Your Majesty." Yang Ruoqing bowed and saluted.

"No gift."

Qi Xingyun put down the memorial in his hand, stretched out his hand and rubbed the center of his brow.

"Your Majesty, please take care of your dragon body." Yang Ruoqing said with a slight smile.

"Qing'er, you are joking. I am also helpless. Look at the world in chaos. Things are everywhere, pointing at me. I can't stop for a moment."

Qi Xingyun sighed. He was now the emperor, but he no longer had freedom. He was like a bird in a cage, being controlled by the world at all times.

"However, fortunately you have helped me stabilize this decline, otherwise I would really be the king of subjugation."

These words came from Qi Xingyun's heart. Ever since the late emperor designed several princes to compete for the throne, the world has been in danger. Otherwise, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang's military power would have collapsed long ago.

No matter how diligent he is, no matter how clever he is, it will be useless.

"This Tianxi Festival is not only His Majesty's world, the world is also the world of everyone in the world."

"I have long understood the truth that no eggs are left intact when a nest is overturned." Yang Ruoqing said sternly.

"Yes, Qing'er, please sit down and talk. There is no need to have any differences between us..."

Qi Xingyun took a sip of water and asked with interest: "I heard that Duke Xin Guo fainted outside because Qing'er was so angry?"

"That old guy scolds people first, will I spoil him? He thinks he is very powerful because he is Duke Xin, and I haven't even accused his son of evil intentions." Yang Ruoqing curled her lips.

"If his son doesn't die, I will also punish him." Qi Xingyun said seriously.

After receiving the relevant investigation memorial, Qi Xingyun was extremely dissatisfied with Ning Yi, the legitimate son of Duke Xin. He fell in love with Yang Ruoqing's beauty on the lucky boat and wanted to take her home by force?

If Yang Ruoqing's martial arts skills were not as extraordinary, the consequences would be disastrous. This kind of playboy who bullies men and dominates women deserves to die.

Qi Xingyun would have wanted to completely wipe out Xin Guogong's lineage if he hadn't been concerned that generations of Xin Guogong were entangled and difficult to deal with.

"Most of the nobles and nobles of the Duke of Xin have confided a large amount of land outside, causing many people to go bankrupt and become domestic slaves. The rich are in the middle of nowhere, and the poor have no place to stand. If you don't care about them, the Great Qi treasury will not be able to do well."

Yang Ruoqing said.

"It's not easy to control. As an emperor, I can't do whatever I want. A single move can affect my whole body." Qi Xingyun frowned.

"I have a way, but I need your authorization." Yang Ruoqing said with a smile.

When meeting Qi Xingyun at this time, the most important thing is to take the opportunity to seek benefits from Qi Xingyun.

"What method?" Qi Xingyun was refreshed.

"The Imperial Merchants were established and one faction fought against another. Now countries like Yajili and other countries in the West are rising. Their ships can sail across the ocean and reach the borders of Daqi thousands of miles away. But our Daqi is not only torn apart, but also unable to build anything at all.

Big ship, it won't take long, at most twenty years, Yajili and other countries will knock on the door of Daqi. By then, Daqi will no longer be able to control it."

Yang Ruoqing continued: "I'm not being alarmist. You have never seen Yajili's battleships and cannons. Chen'er has."

"I knew you would just turn a corner and fight for Chen'er."

Qi Xingyun smiled slightly: "This has posed a big problem for me. It turns out that Luo Fengtang is also a descendant of the royal family."

Yang Ruoqing said: "Don't worry, Tang Yazi doesn't care about the throne. The past is in the past..."

"Of course, I can trust you."

Qi Xingyun muttered: "The money in the treasury has been empty for a long time. You have to write down your plan in detail, so I agreed. In addition, I also gave Chen'er the corresponding rights to establish a naval army. He has already brought the imperial edict with him."

Take the first step."

"Although Chen'er is young, he has superior intelligence. I support his ideas."

Yang Ruoqing said: "But you didn't give me much money."

"There is really nothing we can do about this. There is no money in the national treasury." Qi Xingyun spread his hands.

"I'll come up with a solution. This matter is settled. My secret guards will do some investigation. The imperial secret guards should not interfere." Yang Ruoqing thought for a moment and said.

It is difficult to hide the establishment of the secret guard from Qi Xingyun, not to mention there is no need to hide it.

It is better to be honest with each other, otherwise the king and his ministers will become suspicious of each other sooner or later, and trouble will result.

"Okay, the court will not interfere, but I want first-hand information."

Yang Ruoqing continued to discuss with Qi Xingyun for a while, and then left the palace. Wan Qingchun was still waiting outside.

"Xiao Wan, there is an opportunity to make a fortune in front of you, do you want to participate?" Yang Ruoqing said.

"I will do whatever the eldest sister tells me to do, and I will follow her to the death." Wan Qingchun patted his chest impassionedly.

"I know you are loyal and I won't treat you badly. You have to do your part in this matter and attract more of your dear friends."

"Brother, I'll go back and find someone right now," Wan Qingchun said.

Returning to Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion, Yang Ruoqing met Xing Yun, the leader of the capital's secret guards, in the wing room.

Xingyun is a very ordinary-looking man, and no one will notice his existence if he is thrown into the crowd, but such a person is the best candidate to be an agent.

After being personally trained by Yang Ruoqing, he grew up rapidly and recently became the new leader of the secret guards, while the previous leader left with Luo Xingchen.

"Carefully investigate Yuan Qianshan, the Minister of Civil Affairs, and see if there is anything wrong with him." Yang Ruoqing ordered.

Now that Liu Xueyun has been promised to help him solve the Yuan family's affairs, investigating Yuan Qianshan is the first step.

"Yes, my subordinate will do it immediately."

Xingyun put down a thick pile of information, saluted and turned to leave.

…

"Invited by Tianxia Pavilion to attend the meeting?" Ning Yuan, the Duke of Xinguo, was lying on the armchair, while his two beautiful concubines were beating their legs gently.

In his hand, he was holding a big red invitation with three gilt characters "Tianxia Pavilion" written on it.

"Hmph, you have such a big tone. You actually dare to call me Tianxia Pavilion and invite me to come to your house. Which businessman has such courage?"

Ning Yuan, Duke of Xinguo, opened the invitation and his eyes immediately widened when he saw the person holding the invitation.

"Mrs. Zhongyong Bo, Yang Ruoqing, do you still dare to send an invitation? I'm going to tear you alive." Ning Yuan, the Duke of Xinguo, was furious and suddenly became a little unhappy.

The two beautiful concubines were so frightened that they immediately came up to help the master.

After all, Lao Ning is already over sixty years old, so he is really not young.

It took a long time for Ning Yuan to regain his breath.

"This temptress is simply crazy for wanting to open the Tianxia Pavilion and get the Duke to do business. I will never let her do it."

Thinking of this, Ning Yuan felt alive again.

After so many years of hard work, it's a pity that I only gave birth to one son. Now that I'm old and can't be busy anymore, my daughter's dukedom of Xinguo will probably be given to the Ning family at a cheaper price. This has a sworn hatred with Yang Ruoqing.

Anyway, Ning Yuan believed that Ning Yi's death was related to Yang Ruoqing, and he accepted his death.
