Chapter 74 The Storm 2
She didn't understand why he said this, and what he meant, she didn't understand very well either.

He embraced her, kissed her lips lightly, and closed his eyes quietly.

"I haven't asked you to go to Prince Yi's mansion, how?" He asked suddenly.

Don't say this, she laughed as soon as she said it.

"Fun?" he asked, startled by her smile.

She let go of his arm, sat up, and learned how Wang Yi acted. He smiled and shook his head.

Walking under the crabapple tree, he plucked one and put it on her head, smiling slightly, she lowered her head and followed behind him.

That night, he didn't go back to Qianqing Palace, but stayed in Yuge.

The Jade Pavilion is also a building facing the north and the south. The east and west sides are extended verandahs, and a pavilion is placed at the corner of the veranda for people to rest.

Tonight, the moonlight is like water, so Ming Xuanyu sits and drinks in a pavilion, and outside the pavilion are clusters of flowers.

"Can you play the piano?" He asked Xinyi who was standing by.

She nodded and said, "Only some simple tunes!"

"Go and get that piano!" He said to Zhang De, Zhang De looked distressed and glanced at Xinyi.

"Just take it and it's done. Things are for people to use. What's the point of keeping them if you don't use them?" He said, and Zhang De hurriedly took people there.

Xinyi didn't understand what was going on, she just stood quietly behind him and waited.

After a while, the palace people came carrying the qin, and when the qin was placed in front of Xinyi, she understood Zhang De's hesitation just now.

"Your majesty, servant girl, servant girl is not good at learning. I really dare not touch such a precious thing!" She bowed and pushed back.

Ming Xuanyu raised his eyes to look at her, smiled and said: "It seems that you really know the goods! Since you know this piano, you must be good at playing the piano!" He poured himself wine and asked, "Is this a good thing?" What is it? Tell me about it!"

"The name of this Qin is Jiaoweiqin, which was made by Cai Yong in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Green Qi is equally famous! It is the best piano in the world!" Xinyi replied with a bow.

Zhang De looked surprised and looked at Xinyi.

Ming Xuanyu smiled and said: "Since you know so clearly, then play a song!"

Xinyi had no choice but to sit in front of the piano, raise her hand and play lightly.

As soon as she pressed her fingers on the strings and picked two notes, she sighed in her heart: It really is a peerless piano. With such a tone, how can other pianos compare?

A little nervous and a little excited, she still tried to calm her mood and began to devote herself to the performance.

Just from the first two or three notes, he could tell that she was playing the song "High Mountain and Flowing Water".

The moonlight is hazy, the warm wind blows lightly, and the flowers are full of fragrance.

Life is alive, fortune and misfortune are unpredictable, how many people can meet and know each other like Ziqi Boya?If you are lucky enough to meet a bosom friend, if you don't have the chance to meet each other, wouldn't it be a good thing?If you don't get it, you won't taste the pain and sadness of loss!
Listening to the melodious sound of the piano, he fell into deep thought.

If you don't love anyone, you won't have expectations, and you won't get hurt!But, can he really be so ruthless?

I understand that Xuan Yu is this fate, how long will I have to last before I can speak my true heart?It is said that the Son of Heaven is a lonely family, no one understands and no one can confide in him. He thought that only emperors like Qin Huang and Han Wu were so lonely, but I didn't expect that the precarious person like me is the same!It's ridiculous!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sighed with a wry smile.

On the one hand, there is a high-ranking prime minister, and on the other hand, there is a vassal king with a heavy army in his hands. Neither of these two sides is under my control.The prime minister is bringing up this topic now, not only to test the feudal lord, but also to test my attitude.That being the case, why am I not supporting this matter?If he wants to cut down the vassal, let him do it, and find a way to make them fight, and then I will clean up the mess!Once I start cutting down the vassal, I will definitely have no peace. If I come to make trouble with me again, I will push everything to Yang Dezhang. Anyway, they all know that I am just a puppet!Since I am a puppet, I will be a puppet!Wait for your time!

Will they reach a compromise, though?Will there be an alliance?

No matter what the outcome is, it is possible, but first of all, let Yang Dezhang handle the matter of reducing the vassal. Once the vassal kings change, I will see you again!It's best to use Yang Dezhang's hand to cut down the domain and withdraw the domain. After Yang Dezhang is dealt with in the future, I will have fewer powerful enemies!
Well, it's decided!
There was a deep smile on the corner of his mouth, Xinyi looked up at him, that smile made her feel shuddering, she quickly lowered her head and continued playing, but he didn't notice her reaction.

"You play well!" After the song ended, she got up to salute, and he praised.

"The song you played in Xiyuan that day really caught my attention. I never thought your piano skills would be so high!"

The evening wind blew, and he was a little drunk. He got up and walked to her side, and asked, "What else are you hiding from me?" His slender fingers lifted her chin, his eyes were misty.

"Your majesty, you're drunk!" She didn't answer, and quickly supported him.

Hearing what she said, he smiled slightly, and replied: "Drunk, drunk!" Then he put his arm on her thin shoulders, teased her with the strength of alcohol, and said: "Then you will serve me back Rest! Let's go!"

She was very angry, but there was nothing she could do, she didn't know whether he was really drunk or fake drunk, looked at Zhang De, but Zhang De led her to the main hall of Yu Pavilion.

He lay quietly on the bed and fell asleep, his face was reddish, but he was a little sweaty, and Xinyi carefully wiped his sweat with a towel.He kicked the quilt away, and she put it on again, for fear that he would catch a cold.

The night was waning, and the evening wind brought in the endless fragrance of crabapple flowers.

Xinyi sat by the bed, looking at his sleeping face.

The evening wind blew up the curtains in the house, like water waves, she quickly got up and closed the windows, leaving only two, so that the wind would not blow to him.

He was still so quiet, and she sat beside him, unable to take her eyes off him.

"sorry Sorry!"

"I should have told you all about it long ago, but I don't know what to say, I don't know who they are."

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid that after I tell you all that, I'll never see you again!"

"I know that I have done a lot of wrong things. After telling them about your situation, I don't know what they will do, but I have no choice. My only relative is in their hands. I have no choice but to obey their words!"

"I dare not expect to get your understanding!"

She put her hand carefully on his cheek, showing a happy smile.

"Wait until the day you succeed, if I can live to that day, I will leave!"

"Brother, I will find a way to rescue him myself! At that time, I can leave with peace of mind!"

"So, please take care of yourself and persevere!"

"As long as I see my younger brother, I won't do anything for them anymore, and I won't do anything to betray you!"

"Don't worry, I have a way to deal with them!"

She tried her best to maintain her smile, but the guilt and humiliation in her heart had already completely crushed her, and tears poured out helplessly.She hurriedly wiped away her tears, but they couldn't stop, she turned her back and tried to wipe them away.

He opened his eyes, looked at her back in the candlelight, moved his hand slightly, and wanted to reach out to her, but he held back, turned his face away, and closed his eyes.

The night is always so quiet, it seems to swallow up all the secrets, forever.

In the early morning of the next day, Ming Xuanyu woke up from a dream. Zhang De thought that the emperor drank too much last night, so he didn't call him to get up early. Didn't get much sleep at all.

Xinyi sat by the bed, leaning against the bedpost all night.

I don't know how many times he wanted to get up and call her to lie down with him, but he didn't do that.

Although he had long suspected that she had come here by order, it was still hard for him to accept it when he heard it with his own ears.

Can't forgive her, or sympathize with her?He can't tell himself!
Xinyi woke up at the same time as usual, but she found that his brocade robe was covering her body, and he had disappeared.

The morning sun shone in, and a tear dripped from the corner of her eye.

On the thirteenth, Ming Xuanyu decreed that the matter of cutting down feudal clans should be handled by the Prime Minister with full authority!
This decree was undoubtedly a blockbuster, which made the entire court dumbfounded.

The prime minister did not expect the emperor to make such a decision. He himself wanted to use this matter to scare the emperor and the vassal king, because he expected that the emperor would not agree. Push him to the forefront!If he doesn't cut down the feudal clan, he is obviously disrespecting the imperial edict, and the emperor will seize this point to punish him; however, if he starts to cut down the feudal clan, he will become the enemy of the feudal kings.

To be honest, since Yang Dezhang came to power in the late emperor period, the vassal kings basically kept friendly with him, and the two sides did not interfere with each other.This was even more so during the Xuanyu period of the Ming Dynasty. The vassal kings knew that the emperor had no power, but they simply ignored it.Because their rights have not been damaged at all, they don't need to offend the high-ranking prime minister for a powerless emperor, so they have been on the sidelines.However, as Yang Dezhang's power became stronger, the central court obviously could no longer satisfy his appetite.But he didn't want to be directly an enemy of the vassal kings, and asked them to stand on the side of the emperor.Playing the old card of cutting feudal clans is nothing more than to scare, but who knows that the emperor actually agreed!Could it be that Ming Xuanyu is not afraid of rebellion by the vassal kings?
Yang Dezhang encountered a problem and was trapped by his own trap.

On the other hand, the vassal kings headed by Yu Wang also encountered the biggest trouble!

Could it be that the emperor is really a fool?He can't tell the difference between inside and outside?Anyway, Yang Dezhang is an outsider, and the princes are all from the Ming family!
King Yu was so angry that he could not go to court, and sent someone to send a letter to another vassal king, King Ning, to discuss how to deal with this matter.At this moment, he will not fight alone!
King Ning Ming Jiayi is the most powerful vassal king besides King Yu. He is the nephew of King Yu in terms of seniority. He is only about [-] years old. He is stationed at the border between Ming State and Anguo, which is the west gate of Ming State.King Yu knew very well that King Ning was an extremely cunning person, but no matter how cunning he was, in the current situation, he would not push back any more!

Yu Wang sent his cronies to Ning Wang's mansion to deliver a letter. He had some confidence in Ning Wang, but he didn't expect the emperor to decree to cut down the vassal.He ran to the palace to question, but Ming Xuanyu said, "Uncle, why don't you know, which of the major events in the court over the years has been decided by me? You don't know how the emperor does it." Is it?" What he said was the truth, and King Yu couldn't refute it, so he had to leave disappointed!

Seeing King Yu leaving bitterly, Xinyi asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the prince is so angry, are you okay?" Why did Ming Xuanyu agree to cut the feudal clan? What will Fan bring to King Yu? If King Yu is so angry, he will definitely do something!

Ming Xuanyu was feeding the fish. Hearing her question, he only said, "In such clear water, you can see how many fish there are." Then, he grabbed a large handful of fish food and sprinkled it in. The surface of the water immediately became cloudy, "Now, you don't know how many there are. If you want to see clearly, you have to wait until they have finished grabbing the food!"

He clapped his hands, looked at the fish fighting for food in the water, and showed a faint smile.

Xinyi understood now, but said worriedly: "What if Yuer doesn't fight? What if Yuer becomes friends?"

Zhang De and Fang Xin looked at each other after hearing what she said, and couldn't help sighing.

"Then throw another handful of food in!" Ming Xuanyu said.
