The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 576: The icing on the cake is not as good as giving charcoal in the snow

After the joyful one-day tour of Jingyuan, Xiao Rui returned to the palace with his concubines and children.

A day has passed, and the system is still loading, and the arrival has not been completed. Could it be that a big move is brewing?

It's a pity that Xiao Rui asked the system, and the system's silence is golden.

Back in the East Palace, Xiao Rui had just had a cup of tea when the maid came to report that the lady official had arrived.

Xiao Rui immediately asked her to come in.

After a while, a female officer with a beautiful appearance and outstanding temperament walked in.

It was Yan Xiaoxiao who came.

Xiaoxiao has been in the palace for five years, and now she is in her early twenties. She is at the most beautiful age of a woman's life. She has faded from immature and mature, and her gestures are full of charm.

When Xiao Rui first saw Yan Xiao when he was young, he deduced that she must be a beauty when she grows up, but now it is confirmed that Xiao Rui's vision is correct.

In fact, Yan Xiaoxiao's appearance is the most outstanding among the women Xiao Rui has ever seen, even better than Yan Linglong, and already belongs to the level of alluring country and city.

Her fair skin has no blemishes, her facial features are exquisite and perfect, her nine-headed body is the biggest highlight, her originally flat body has grown into mountains, and her future children will not be short of milk.

in addition.

Yan Xiaoxiao is not a vase.

Life in the palace taught her many things, such as indifference, cruelty, heartlessness, and pretense. She learned to coerce and lure her, and learned to pretend. Don't underestimate her as a female official in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, her status is humble, but her means should not be underestimated.

If it hadn't been for the last time Duke Jing and the Empress rebelled, Xiao Rui wouldn't have known that Yan Xiaoxiao was so capable, and the female officials in every bedroom would listen to her.

Of course, she is also proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even has a lot of experience in handling political affairs.

This time Yan Xiaoxiao came, could there be something wrong with the matter that made her pay attention?

"Slave servant pays homage to Your Highness!"

Yan Xiaoxiao stopped three steps away from Xiao Rui, then bowed and saluted, and raised her head to worship with a smile.

Between her frowns and smiles, Xiao Rui couldn't help but think of a sentence:

"Smiles of spring peaches, cloud piles of emerald buns. Cherry blossoms on lips, fragrance of pomegranate teeth."

In front of outsiders, she is indifferent and upright. Whenever she sees Xiao Rui alone, she will show her beauty with all her strength. This girl has already learned to use the charm skill.

"Sit down." Xiao Rui pretended to be calm and said, pointing to the round stool opposite.

Who knows that Yan Xiaoxiao didn't sit opposite, but pulled a round stool and sat next to Xiao Rui, and said: "Your servant wants to report confidential matters, be careful that the wall has ears!"

Xiao Rui was immediately happy, this girl really grew up.

In the past, she would only hide her thoughts in her heart, even if she was wronged, she would only hide in the library and cry secretly, but now she has become bolder, often "molesting" or even "tempting" Xiao Rui, dare to show her inner feelings, let Xiao Rui saw it.

This was a pain for Xiao Rui, he had planned to ask Yan Xiaoxiao to come from the Hall of Mental Cultivation before, but unfortunately he never found a suitable opportunity, this could be regarded as Yan Xiaoxiao's torture to him.

After the two sat close to each other, Yan Xiaoxiao stretched out his jade hand to tap on Xiao Rui's leg. He was proficient with his hands, and the tapping was very comfortable.

"Is there any result to the matter that attracted your attention?" Xiao Rui asked.

Yan Xiaoxiao nodded, and said: "A female official secretly begged to see Concubine Lan behind the back of other people in Jingxiang Palace. The two chatted in the room for a long time before they came out."

"What is the origin of this female officer?" Xiao Rui asked.

Yan Xiaoxiao said: "I sent someone to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to check. He used to be a female official in Concubine Mu's palace. Later, Concubine Mu was thrown into the cold palace, so she asked her relationship to transfer to other places. The Jingxiang Palace that only entered a year ago , it seems that she was also instructed to enter Shizuka Palace."

Xiao Rui laughed immediately: "It seems that Huang Qilin is going to make a move!"

Huang Qilin thinks that he is clever in his means, letting Ashikaga Yumi enter the palace is just his random arrangement back then, and he will never reveal his secrets, but he didn't expect that Guo Jia was so smart that he noticed the problem, and even went to the country of Wa without hesitation.

What Huang Qilin will do now is in Xiao Rui's control.

"Your Highness, do you need your servants to interrogate this female official?" Yan Xiaoxiao asked.

Xiao Rui shook his head and said: "It's not necessary, she's just a messenger, and she can't ask anything. As for what Huang Qilin will write, it's nothing more than that Nobita Ashikaga is in his hands, and then he says she is a substitute, let her From love to hate."

"Will she harm His Majesty?" Yan Xiaoxiao asked.

Xiao Rui asked back: "What if it was you?"

Yan Xiaoxiao was stunned, shook her head and said, "I don't know how I will face it, maybe the authorities are confused by the onlookers. But Concubine Lan has a cheerful and kind heart, and it can be seen that she really loves His Majesty. So the servant thinks She will not harm His Majesty. Women know women!"

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "That's right! I guess Huang Qilin is not sure that Concubine Lan will hurt His Majesty, so his target has to be changed. Huang Qilin made a deal with Concubine Lan, and the person he wants to kill is not His Majesty. It's me!"

"What? How dare she!" Yan Xiaoxiaoxiu frowned, and immediately scolded her, and her subordinates doubled their strength.

Feeling the pain of being knocked on his leg, Xiao Rui couldn't laugh or cry: "Xiao Xiao, you can't talk nonsense about this. If someone else hears it, this is the crime you will commit next."

Yan Xiaoxiao said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, of course I know, I will keep in mind what other people say, and attack secretly."

Hearing this posture, Xiao Rui quickly persuaded: "Don't mess around, I know that the ladies and maids of Jingxiang Palace belong to you, don't worry, since I know the intentions of Concubine Lan and Huang Qilin, I won't let them Success. In addition, I also want to see what Ashikaga Yumi will do, and hope she will not do anything wrong."

Yan Xiaoxiao immediately smiled like a flower, and said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, this servant will not act rashly. Did you beat His Highness just now? This servant will give you a good rub."

"Well, not bad..." Xiao Rui enjoyed it.

...

Li Yuanfang is now responsible for Xiao Rui's safety.

Dian Wei, Wu Zhanfa, and Wei Guang followed Zhang Liang and Xiao He to Anxi Province, Li Cunxiao and Yang Youji went to fight in Qi State, and Li Kui followed Jia Xu all the year round. Li Yuanfang also understands the importance of the task, basically all year round.

But Xiao Rui is not a mean boss, how can he manipulate his subordinates like this, and Li Yuanfang is married and his wife is pregnant. So when Xiao Rui stayed in the palace, he let Li Yuanfang arrange his own time.

There are the prince's personal guards and imperial guards in the palace, so he doesn't have to worry about assassins coming in during the day, so he can go home during the day.

Although Li Yuanfang got married and established a business, he still lived in the former Xianwang Mansion, mainly because he was afraid that bad people would control his family and threaten him. The Prince Xian's Mansion was once the prince's mansion, and it has been preserved since the branch's inner court secretary. The mansion is protected by iron dragon knights, and the reliable servants and maidservants of the former mansion have stayed.

As soon as Li Yuanfang entered the palace, Gao Quan, the steward, greeted him, and said with a smile: "General Li, someone wants to see you today, and knowing that you are not at the palace, he left a greeting card."

"Oh, is that so?" Li Yuanfang frowned. He was rescued from the death row by His Royal Highness, and was pretended to be killed by a dead body found by the prefect of Yangzhou Prefecture. "Li Yuanfang" was already dead, so he had no friends.

Li Yuanfang raised his brows after receiving the greeting card, then got up and left the palace.

According to the address of the greeting post, Li Yuanfang came to a teahouse, asked the store owner, and was taken to the backyard. As soon as he entered, he saw a young man coming out to welcome him.

"Brother Yuanfang!" the boy called out.

Li Yuanfang smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for more than two years, and I've grown so tall."

After finishing speaking, Li Yuanfang cupped his fists and greeted the man behind the boy, "Brother Mo!"

Mo Liangchen replied with a smile, "Brother Li!"

These two people are none other than the Mo family in the Mo organization, Mo Zhan and Mo Liangchen.

The three entered the room and sat down to chat.

"The two of you have come here thousands of miles from the Qin Kingdom, and it seems that you have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders." Li Yuanfang asked straight to the point.

Mo Liangchen replied: "To be honest, I will be ordered by Emperor Qin to come to the capital of Xia Kingdom to assassinate His Highness Xiao Rui!"

Li Yuanfang nodded and said with a smile: "I have already guessed it, but I don't quite understand. Since it is an assassination, why did you take the initiative to come to see me? Wouldn't it be self-inflicted? Is it possible that you want to win me over? Or plan to trap and kill me?" ?”

"Brother Yuan Fang came here alone, showing his trust. How can I trap and kill you? I, Mo Liangchen, speak morally and will never do anything that disgraces my character." Mo Liangchen explained.

Mo Zhan saw that his uncle was always missing the point, so he said, "Brother Yuanfang, although I was ordered by the Emperor Qin to assassinate His Highness Xiao Rui this time, after serious consideration, my Mo family is unwilling to do so." And I still want to cooperate, and I want to ask Brother Yuanfang to pass it on."

"cooperate?"

Li Yuanfang was immediately happy.

"In Zhao State two years ago, His Highness personally invited the Mo organization to change its course, but you refused, why are you willing to cooperate now?" Li Yuanfang asked.

Mo Zhan said: "Brother Yuanfang should know that the Mo organization is composed of two parts, the Mo family and the Bai family. At that time, the Mo family and the Bai family were inseparable from each other, so they could not separate from Qin. In the past two years, the Mo family and the Bai family have sorted out their relationship. , has become distinct. Although it is still an ink organization, it is already two parts."

Li Yuanfang smiled and said: "Qin is strong, why choose Daxia? Compared with today, not only the time has changed two years ago, but everything has changed. Do you two think that Your Highness still needs the support of the Mo family?" ?”

Mo Zhan and Mo Liangchen immediately fell silent.

This is like that sentence: icing on the cake is not as good as giving charcoal in the snow.

When Xiao Rui was able to use the Mo family, if they were willing to join him, they would definitely become an important part of Xiao Rui's side today.

But now?

After the Xia organization and the Yang organization merged into one, Jing Feng and Qin Ming took people to the Qin State to deploy. Even if Xiao Rui did not have the Juzi order in his hands, they were willing to work hard for Xiao Rui, because they saw that who would be the one in this world in the future? Lord ups and downs.

Mo Liangchen sighed, and said, "Even if it's not too late to add flowers to the cake, I'd like to ask brother Yuanfang for help."

Li Yuanfang asked curiously, "May I know why?"

After Mo Liangchen and Mo Zhan looked at each other, Mo Zhan explained: "Brother Li should know that the reason why our Mo organization helps Qin is to think that after Qin unifies China, our Mohism will spread and flourish throughout the world. But from today's perspective, Qin has no such strength, because Great Xia is getting stronger and stronger."

"Secondly, the Xia organization and the Yang organization merged into Mozhe. We have already met them in Qin. We don't care about their behavior, because the Mohist organization was not the core of the Mozhe organization and the Yang organization. So we look down on them arrogantly. But the frightening thing is that His Royal Highness Xiao Rui established a college, and the knowledge he imparts includes the knowledge obtained from the treasure house of Mozang. Although it claims to cultivate junior college students, for us, It is to cultivate Mohists. As the core inheritance of Mohism, our Mohist organization has struggled for hundreds of years to do something that we have not thought of. Started to build branch schools in various places, and more and more students are studying. Maybe after a few generations, Xia organization and Yang organization will completely replace us and become real Mohists, and our group will be completely reduced to assassins and betrayed The glory and mission of the ancestors..."

After saying these words, Mo Zhan and Mo Liangchen sighed.

Li Yuanfang could understand their difficulties, so she said, "I need to report this matter to Your Highness. Also, since you have chosen to seek refuge, are you prepared to be sincere?"

Mo Liangchen took out a list from his bosom, and said: "This is the staff of the Mo organization who came to the capital this time. They have recorded their identities and hiding places in detail, which can be regarded as the sincerity of meeting His Highness."

"Okay!" Li Yuanfang returned to the East Palace immediately after receiving the list.
