After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 1496: Once in Years

You Rongzhi said quickly: "Even if he has great means, he still needs to rely on you, the towering tree, otherwise he will be nothing."

This was not entirely flattery. He Xiao was a foreign businessman who had no power or money in Yao Country. How could he amass a huge fortune in just one month? Wasn't it because of the power of King Yao?

King Yao hummed and murmured, "Nothing."

The old palace servant Qiu Long stood behind him and knew that the king was feeling unhappy.

He Xiao really relied on the Lord, otherwise he would have been killed by Qingyang with just one finger.

The officials paid money in order to show their loyalty to the king, and the king had to repay them appropriately in return, but He Xiao would take 40% of each penny!
Forty percent!
The king didn't care about him making a little money, but 40% of the 3 billion yuan was still a staggering number.

The construction of palaces in the past two years did not cost so much money.

Qiu Long whispered, "He Xiao is a smart man. Perhaps he will come to you to report tomorrow."

If He Xiao doesn't understand the joy of sharing, then he is actually not smart enough.

Perhaps the Lord is right, this boy is too greedy.

"You Rongzhi, among the one million taels he earned, there is your money." Yao Wang said to You Rongzhi, "You have to supervise him to build Youhu Villa obediently, and don't let him use tricks to escape."

"Yes." You Rongzhi also knew that this matter was of great importance, so he accepted the task.

After he left, King Yao stood up and walked around a few times, then subconsciously looked in the direction of Yuquan Palace.

This was a habit he had developed over many years. When he turned around, he remembered that the old pear tree was gone.

Damn it!
"Why hasn't Qingyang Regent made any moves in the past few days?"

The old palace servant said carefully, "Indeed, not really. The Regent has been staying at Youhu Cottage recently. But her men have been active in Tianshui City."

"Who did you contact?"

"Some went to the homes of princes and ministers, some frequented temples, and some went in and out of the market to buy food and supplies."

King Yao rubbed his temples. The subtext was that no useful information was obtained. After all, it was impossible for Regent Qingyang to really cultivate his mind and character in the Youhu cottage from now on.

She must be planning something secretly.

"Speaking of which, He Xiao's actions in Tianshui City exceeded my original plan." King Yao summoned He Xiao to Yao Kingdom mainly for Qingyang.

Of course, he didn't think that He Xiao could do anything to Qingyang. However, the idea of ​​Youhu Villa forced the officials to take sides, which immediately suppressed Qingyang's previously accumulated arrogance.

The pressure that the "Regent" brought to the entire Yaowang Court dropped significantly within a few days.

Tianshui City is known for being home to many talented people, but why haven't his capable men and ministers come up with such an idea over the past year?

Qiu Long bowed and said, "It's all because your Majesty has used the right people."

Why does a monarch need to do everything himself? The greatest ability of a ruler is to know how to use people.

King Yao smiled and said, "He Xiao's actions cannot go beyond the plan."

As a chess piece, He Xiao is excellent... too excellent.

If a chess piece could suddenly make decisions and move on its own, then what would be the need for a chess player?

The situation was beyond his control, and King Yao didn't like this feeling.

……

A small cottage by the lake.

"Palace Master."

There was a gentle call from outside the door, and the lights in the Warm Heart Pavilion came on.

The red door opened by itself, and Qingyang's voice came out, very calmly:

"come in."

Yuan Xuan walked into the Nuanxin Pavilion and saw Qingyang curled up on the couch, his chin propped up, looking up at the bright moon outside the window.

On the small table, there was a pink teacup.

After He Yang's death, Yuan Xuan was promoted and took over the important task of the Left General of Qingwei.

Qingyang didn't even turn his head: "Have you finished filming Chibao?"

"The auction is over. The house that Mr. He brought out tonight was sold out in a flash." Yuan Xuan didn't dare to keep it a secret. "The last house was auctioned for 120,000 taels."

"He's really amazing. He sold a piece of muddy land for millions of taels of silver. I underestimated him before." Qingyang smiled faintly, "But if he is really smart, he should know that these millions of taels of silver are earned in vain and cannot be taken away."

Yuan Xuan responded: "Yes."

Qingyang glanced at him. If He Yang was still here, he wouldn't hide it and would ask why right away.

She has been scheming against others all her life, so she doesn't want the people around her to be scheming and have their own agenda.

Alas, what a pity.

"Why do you think so?"

Yuan Xuan thought for a moment: "Money can move people's hearts?"

"He played those moves beautifully before, but if he really knows how to read people's hearts, he should first understand what kind of temperament King Yao has." Qingyang said leisurely, "Working for someone like King Yao, huh, be careful that the bow will be put away after the bird is killed."

After fighting for almost a year, she knew the character of King Yao too well. If He Xiao only made a few hundred thousand taels, King Yao could have closed his eyes and pretended not to know; but He Xiao was too ruthless in amassing wealth, and he made millions in a short time.

King Yao himself had no way to take out the money from corrupt officials, but the man named He did it easily.

"Yes!" So the Palace Master hasn't taken any action recently, just waiting for the natural rift between King Yao and He Xiao?
But then again, the surveillance on Youhu Cottage and the Palace Master's subordinates remains as strict as before.

Qingyang asked him, "Anything else?"

"News from Honglu." Yuan Xuan reported, "They are planning to come to Tianshui City."

What a waste of time! Qingyang frowned: "The birthday celebration of King Yao is over, and Tianshui City is no longer under martial law. This is a good opportunity for them."

"Yes."

At this moment, the golden bell on Qingyang's wrist suddenly moved, rang without wind.

Her expression changed and she ordered Yuan Xuan to leave.

Afterwards, she closed the doors and windows with her own hands, placed the statue on the long table against the wall, and lit a few incense sticks.

The smoke floating in the air stopped quietly, forming a blurry face.

"Master Tong Ming."

"More than three months later, the Emperor's fluid will be in full bloom!" Master Tong Ming did not bother to be polite with her.

"I just heard about it, too." Qingyang stood with his hands behind his back. "In the conflict in the divine world, one righteous god died, nine subordinate gods died, and forty-seven subordinate gods died. More than eight hundred gods and people without godhood died."

There are only thirty-six righteous gods in total, and the death of one is a major event that shakes the world of gods.

"This is the most serious conflict in the past 150 years, all for a few Dragon Punishment Pillars!" There are only 3,600 subordinate gods in the God Realm, and even fewer, only 128 subordinate gods. Seven percent of them died in this one blow. "No matter which forces perished, it is a loss that the God Realm cannot afford!"

Qingyang had no expression on his face.

This means that the Emperor Liujiang that will descend upon the world in more than three months will be the most abundant in the past one hundred and fifty years!
It is such a blessing in this world.

"so what?"

"Saint Lingxu was furious and demanded that the spiritual energy of the two worlds be restored to balance." True Lord Tongming said, "But in the past year and a half, there has been too little nightmare energy in the Shining Gold Plain. Several main gods believe that you have made little contribution to the Yao Kingdom."
