Xiancheng, Shu Royal Palace.

The Chief Jian had a cold face. After listening to the report of his eunuchs about his recent daily life in Xiagong Nie, his face was filled with sorrow.

"Did you mean that the king destroyed the erotic pictures stuffed under the pillow?"

The little eunuch shook his head like a wave drum. He was the close servant beside Xia Gong Nie and also the eyeliner of Jian Changshi.

Basically, Xia Gong Nie's every move was made public. The people around her were basically not Yang Xian's people, or Jian Changshi's people. The power between the Xia family and the Prime Minister's Mansion had a delicate balance, and the one related to this was the Zhong Changshi Huang Hao.

Huang Hao is the Zhongchang Suit and Xia Gongni's playmate since childhood. His identity determines that he will never betray Xia Gongni. At the same time, Huang Hao's betrayal caused Huang Feng to die in the Shu Palace, and the Huang clan also declined. Although Huang Hao has gathered some of the illegitimate Huang clan's children, the current power of these people is not very large.

Huang Hao has had a good balance between the Xia family and the Prime Minister's Mansion over the years. With such a person beside Xia Gong Nie, both Xia family and Yang Xian can rest assured.

"The king did not destroy the erotic pictures, but pulled out all the golden silks from the picture books, and then handed over the rest to us. The king also told us that the Prime Minister said that the material resources were difficult and that the items could not be damaged easily."

Jian Changshi's face was covered in black lines, and he couldn't help but sigh. Has the stinginess and greed for money passed down from the ancestral lineage of Emperor Yuan of Xia finally passed on to Xia Gong Nie?

But what can I do? Although this erotic palace picture is an obscene and private thing, it is carefully created by a master. After all, it is something for the royal family, and the value of the embroidered statues is much more valuable than the materials themselves.

Xiagong Nirvana is simply a bad thing!

After destroying some items, Jian Changshi didn't feel sorry for him. What really made Jian Changshi worried was the state of Xia Gong Nie at this time.

Although it is normal for an ordinary ten-year-old girl to be carefree, Xia Gong Ni is the king. Yang Xian is in charge of the major affairs of Shu. In the eyes of the princes everywhere, Xia Gong Ni is now just a puppet in Yang Xian's hands.

In fact, this is indeed the case. But this state cannot continue. The reason why Xia family can tolerate it is because Xia Gongni has not grown up yet and needs Yang Xian’s protection.

But there will always be one day when Xia Gong Nie grows up, and the contest between prime minister and monarch will sooner or later become fierce. In the eyes of the world, Yang Xian is a virtuous minister who protects the young master, while Xia Gong Nie is a virtuous king with a reputation.

Yang Xian did a good job. He left everyone with nothing to say, even if he was doing the same thing as Huan Wu, even better than that.

But everyone in the world can be content with this state, even if Jian Changshi herself can, but Xia Gong Nirvana cannot. What she needs is to be alert, stay alert to Yang Xian, and begin to build a force that is loyal to herself.

For the moment that will come sooner or later!

But Xia Gongni's increasingly intimate state with Yang Xian at this time is no longer something that can be described as obedient.

"Yang Zhong back then, Yang Xian today. Alas!"

In the end, Shi Changshi Jian could only sigh, but he was helpless.

Prime Minister's Mansion.

Xia Gongni was sitting in Yang Xian's seat, and the table was filled with a pot of fragrant scallion and pig's trotter soup. Xia Gongni was feasting, but Yang Xian flirted with the books in his hand, sat on the Grand Master's chair next to him, leisurely enjoying the afternoon.

"Prime Minister Wu and Chu have agreed to send troops one after another. However, Cai Tong's appetite is too big. Would it be too risky to hand over Pingling to him?"

Yan Yi stood beside the chair of the Grand Master. He received a letter from his younger brother and learned the news. Although Yan Yi and Yan Le were brothers, one had a gray beard and the other had a black hair and a straight green hair, and they didn't look like people from the same era.

Yan Yi betrayed the other three major families in Shuzhou, thus gaining the opportunity for family continuation and development. However, this opportunity was very fragile. Once the Liang army entered Shu, everything Yan Yi had now would no longer exist.

"How could he work hard if Cai Tong doesn't give him any sweetness? What really surprised me was that Master Wu Hou Shen. His courage is really extraordinary!"

As the head of a country, Hou Shen agreed to send troops to help with just one marriage. Compared to Cai Tong's greed, his courage is really beyond the reach of people.

"Prime Minister, Cai Tong is greedy for real profit. Although his appetite is big, his bad habits lie in the Ming Dynasty. Hou Shen is a bit unfathomable. He doesn't want wealth and does not seek the city, so he may have made a lot of plans."

Yan Yi looked alert on his face. When he said this, he looked at Xia Gongnie on the side.

Xia Gongni bit the pork trotter, noticed the inexplicable gaze, and blinked.

"The Prime Minister and Hou Shen's children are all like a dragon and a phoenix, especially the fourth son Hou Quan, who is young and intelligent, handsome and extraordinary. Isn't it too risky to call him the king's husband?"

Yan Yi was very worried that with the state of Nirvana in the Xia Palace, he might be deceived by Hou Quan. At that time, Shu Kingdom would be in danger of destruction.

Xia Gongni's ears suddenly erected. He heard that his first Wang Fu was amazingly beautiful, and his face was flashing with a little excitement.

"Really? Then when will he come! My Ah Hua can't wait!"

"Ahua?"

Yan Yi was stunned, a little confused about what Ahua was in Xia Gong Nie's mouth. Yan Yi turned his gaze to Yang Xian, trying to get an answer from him, but Yang Xian smiled.

"Hou Shen swallowed the old master's foundation to establish the Wu Kingdom. He has been dormant in Wu for more than ten years, but it is difficult to further. He ignored the opposition of his ministers and joined forces with Cai Tong. He has advanced and retreated from the same place. Wu and Chu are like one, but after all, they are two families. The borders of both sides have not even been stationed in 10,000 troops. It seems that it is because Wu and Chu are dead. Hou Shen is only in his forty years this year, and in his prime, how can he be willing to live in a corner?"

"What the Prime Minister means is that Hou Shen wants to swallow Chu?"

Yan Yi's expression was not much surprise. In Yizhou, there was also a voice within Yizhou that he had gone east to the river, swallowed up Jingyang, and divided the world. However, in the end, because of Xia Yunhua's relationship, these plans were left unresolved. Finally, seeing that the world was returned to Liang, the aristocratic families in Shu were all focused on being the ministers of the new dynasty.

"I'm afraid it's not just Chu, but Shu is also within Hou Shen's plan. Otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to let the most outstanding four sons Hou Quan marry into his marriage. Huan Wu is not able to compete with them, so they put their minds here. The same is true for Cai Tong, but because the border pressure is too great, Jingzhou is located in the center of the Three Kingdoms. If Cai Tong reveals his ambitions, he will only fall into the Jedi and be attacked from both sides."

"Then why did the Prime Minister still recruit Hou Quan to enter Shu?"

"Because what I want is the world, not half of the rivers and mountains."

Yang Xian smiled, and Yan Yi couldn't help but get goosebumps.

"Xiangfu said it well." Xia Gongni responded with half of the pig's trotter, "If you want to eat, eat one, what's the best thing about half of it."
