All my subjects want to usurp the throne

Chapter 122 You're just a plaything!
"Talked with me a lot, aren't you afraid? Your uncle was once an enemy!"

Reminded by the old monster, Ling Xiao pulled out a stiff smile.

"If you wanted to harm me, you would have already done it. Besides, it was done by my uncle. It has nothing to do with me. I believe that General Yuan, who was once famous for a while, will be able to tell the difference between good and bad!"

Let's make the old guy happy first, why should I bear the sins committed by the late emperor on my shoulders?
Yuan Yang laughed loudly. This young emperor was interesting, but he didn't intend to care about it.

The little emperor was appointed to this position when he was in danger, and he was separated from the former emperor by hundreds of thousands of miles.

It is said that the little emperor is licentious, immoral and extremely violent, but since the little emperor came to power, no one has ever entered this cold palace.

When the late emperor was around, the Lenggong was simply a hell on earth. The late emperor was praised, but how many shameful things did he do?

"You are much stronger than that uncle of yours, but it's a pity that your uncle was too restrictive to the courtiers under his opponents. When you came to power, many courtiers at the beginning were afraid that you would become like the first emperor, so in order to protect themselves , strengthen the strength!"

"But slowly, their ambitions have grown. No, you can't control it anymore."

Yuan Yang hit the nail on the head and pointed out the crux of the problem. Ling Xiao smiled. He was different from the first emperor. This was the first time someone mentioned it to him. Originally, when others mentioned the first emperor, it was all because of his great achievements.

The useless little emperor himself has long been scolded by the censors everywhere, even to the frontier.

"Thank you, General Yuan, for the compliment!"

"Although I like to stay in the cold palace, I know what is going on outside."

"Forget it, why are you telling me this? It's a long way off. What's the point of coming to the Leng Palace? How did you hear about me?"

The other party's eyes were bright, and he seemed to think that Ling Xiao must have a purpose, and wanted to invite him out of the mountain.

But Yuan Yang had already given up on politics when his beloved died.

The old guy stayed in the cold palace and refused to leave all the time. If Ling Xiao insisted on looking for something, he would definitely not be able to avoid him.

It's better to explain why you came here. The old guy doesn't belong to any party, but he can be trusted.

"I met a few good young people outside the palace, but all forces are watching. It is too difficult to get out of the palace, so I want to dig a tunnel and dig into this cold palace."

Yuan Yang just took a sip of water and sprayed it all out.

Looking at Ling Xiao in disbelief, is this something that a generation of kings can say?

"You have to understand that what you are digging is your own house. The enemy has not yet thought of digging into the palace, but you have started to deal with it yourself."

"I think outsiders are biased in their evaluation of you."

"You are not licentious, you are simply playful!"

After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and said that although he didn't care about the government, he also had a share of the credit for the stability of the Qi Dynasty.

The little emperor doesn't care, if he keeps playing like this, won't the whole country be destroyed in his hands?
"Senior misunderstood, I want to rectify in the palace, I am afraid that those soldiers will not surrender to me, how can these old fritters give up the strength they have accumulated for so many years?"

"I can only choose from among the young people. The reason why I go out is also for the sake of my country in the Great Qi Dynasty."

It seems that the old man doesn't care about Da Qi Chao, but he must have something in his heart, otherwise, the reaction would not be so big.

Yuan Yang touched the gourd on his waist, but there was no wine in it, so he sighed.

"This tunnel, the old man knows it, and it does lead to the outside of the palace, not to mention the tunnels in the cold palace, even every tunnel in the palace, the old man can feel it clearly."

"It's just that the old man hasn't had a drink for many days, and it's really itchy. If you can satisfy the old man, maybe it's possible to tell you when you're drunk."

Yuan Yang said so, he was a generation of heroes when he was young, how could he be deceived by him, Ling Xiao readily agreed.

"Don't worry, isn't it just wine? When tomorrow comes, not only will there be wine, but I will give you two good ones, so that you can eat to your heart's content!"

"Senior, do you need anything else?"

Since he came to power, the Leng Palace has been abandoned. All the eunuchs and maids in the Leng Palace have been withdrawn. There must be many difficulties in life.

"You really know what to do, kid. Now that you've opened your mouth, I'm not going to be polite. Give me some money, a set of clothes, and I can go out and wander around along the tunnel!"

It's just testing Ling Xiao's bottom line. This young emperor seems to be easy to get along with, but if he keeps hitting him with royal secrets, will he be angry?
The hiding place here has already been discovered, if the little emperor can get along, he is not in a hurry to hide.

"A word is settled!"

It doesn't take much effort to get it. As for food and money, Ling Xiao is the most indispensable.

Yuan Yang looked at the sky, he hadn't gone out for ten years, he didn't know what it was like outside?
Sure enough, this kid really brought a lot of things, but in order to avoid people's eyes and ears, he dragged a sack, which looked extremely funny.

"Old senior, come and help me!"

Li Dequan is also true, asking him to pretend to be so sincere, there are at least a dozen dishes, and he can't be brought along. The journey along the way really exhausted him.

Yuan Yang took the sack, picked it up easily, and looked at it seemingly unintentionally, "Your body is not good enough, you're just walking like this, and you're out of breath!"

I was too lazy to argue with the old guy, so I walked to the side. Yesterday, this side was full of weeds, and there was no place to sit, but today a table was brought out.

This cold palace doesn't even have any decent furniture, but this table is made of high-quality pear blossom wood.

"Don't look at it, I stole it from a nearby palace. It's served with delicious food and wine, so you have to sit down and drink it no matter what!"

He took the initiative to put the food on the table, smelled the wine, and salivated.

"You really brought good wine, isn't it a tribute from the southern envoys?"

When the first emperor was around, this kind of wine could not be drunk casually, but Ling Xiao brought a jug over.

"Isn't it just a drink? I don't have any friends outside the palace. When I meet you, an old man, I just happen to have a drink with you."

Although there is a huge age difference between the two, Yuan Yang has to say that he admires the kid in front of him very much.

After drinking for three rounds, Yuan Yang's face was full of red. He had never seen such an interesting young man, and he was able to treat him with courtesy even though he knew he was an enemy.

"Let's go, go to the tunnel!"

Seeing the old man walking, he seems a little wobbly, can he still find the entrance of the cave?

"Hurry up, don't look at my old man who drinks a little too much, but his brain is fine."

She curled her lips in disdain, really underestimating him.
