The full harem escape game

Chapter 398 The First Emperor and the Little Fox
At this time, the Xia family was sitting in the main hall.

Xia Jingzhi and He Shi happily listened to Xia Jing's vivid description of the process of being promoted to the hall.Xia Qingyang's elder brother and sister-in-law also watched with a smile, occasionally adding a few words.

Xia Qingyang looked at Ren Yi, and finally thought.

After talking to Xia Jingzhi and his wife, she and Ren Yi went to the unoccupied wing a little further away.

"This place is secluded, I have ordered my subordinates to guard it secretly, no one else will pass by." Once entering the room, Ren Yi turned around and said.

Xia Qingyang probably guessed that Ren Yi had already figured out the Xia family from the inside out.

She said yes.

"You should know what I want to ask you about." Ren Yi glanced at Xia Qingyang, "I have asked my men to interrogate, not only the people who were brought to testify... Well, the prodigal son has turned back, and the others have been left behind. Those in the medical hall also speak the same words, and they don’t seem to be coerced. What’s going on here.”

The eldest princess is really careful and smart.Moreover, he may have already been staring at himself.

Xia Qingyang smiled and remained silent.

"It really is you." Ren Yi took a deep look at her, then pulled away the chair by the table and sat down, "You can sit too."

"Thank you, Princess Chang." Xia Qingyang was as good as he was.

She knew that Ren Yi was full of doubts now, but this story still had to be made up slowly... no, it was told slowly.

Previously in the Yujun Pavilion, she had made up a story about a worldly expert entering the palace to teach Concubine An the martial arts.

Now she has enriched this setting and told Ren Yi that in fact, the expert also taught herself and Empress Yin the method.

"...Before he left, Master asserted that there would be a catastrophe that would harm the country and the people in the future. The reason why he taught the three of us skills was to help the country survive the catastrophe. "Xia Qingyang said solemnly, "Now that I have figured out that the doom is approaching, I made an agreement with my two sisters that no matter what, I will fulfill the mission left by Master and help the Dachun Kingdom survive this crisis."

Xia Qingyang knew that Ren Yi would not believe her if she only talked about herself.So she moved Concubine An and Empress Yin out to lower Ren Yi's guard.

Ren Yi was silent for a while, apparently not fully believing what Xia Qingyang said: "You mean, Yixuan's medical skills were learned from this 'expert'. You threatened them, but you temporarily controlled them with Famen?"

"Exactly."

Ren Yi frowned slightly: "Since the expert has such extraordinary abilities, he should be very famous. Why have I never heard of it?"

Xia Qingyang paused slightly, as if there was something unspeakable.After a brief hesitation, she sighed softly:

"Back then, His Majesty was deceived by the rumors of his staff, so the Empress Dowager ordered that all witchcraft and divination techniques be banned. Since then, no one in Dachun has dared to claim to have this ability. Now, if it were not for the real national crisis, I would never dare speak these out."

"..."

What Xia Qingyang said was reasonable.

Just as Ren Yi was about to ask something further, Xia Qingyang said again: "There is one more thing, Master originally forbade me to say it. But I think that maybe by talking about it, His Highness's confusion can be solved a little bit."

"speak."

"When the late emperor was young, he once rescued a seriously injured fox in the palace, bandaged it, and raised it for three days, right?"

"……how do you know?"

Ren Yi raised her eyes abruptly.

Xia Qingyang smiled.

She didn't answer Ren Yi directly, but said to herself: "That fox has actually been practicing for many years. If it wasn't for the kindness of the first emperor, it might not survive the day."

Xia Qingyang told Ren Yi that after the fox transformed successfully, he wanted to repay his kindness to the late emperor.Before it thought of leaving the customs, the late emperor had passed away for many years, so it planned to help his descendants, at least to preserve the late emperor's foundation.

Anyway, it was implying Ren Yi inside and outside the words that the "Master" in his mouth was this fox that repayed the favor.

Needless to say, this trick really worked, Ren Yi was very shocked at this time.

"...When I was young, I saw that fox once in the palace. When I mentioned it to my father, my father told me that he once rescued a fox and wanted to keep it secretly, but the fox ran away by itself. "

Goosebumps crawled up Ren Yi's arms.

The most important thing is that the late Emperor only told Ren Yi about this matter, not even the Queen Mother!

Daojun sighed in Xia Qingyang's ear: "You can really fool me. Isn't this the gossip you heard from the big banyan tree in the palace?"

"Mr. Dao, the truth must be mixed with falsehood, so that others will believe it."

"Hmph, it's a mystery."

"Please praise me for being cunning."

"I don't understand. If you want to be the strategist for this eldest princess, just say so. Why do you have to go to so much trouble?"

It was hinting and probing, and Daojun felt tired watching from the sidelines.

"Humans are very rebellious animals. If the boss rushes to the door, the other party may not accept it."

Xia Qingyang gave Daojun a vivid example, "It's as if Gu Sinan told you directly that he is a good person and can help you fight against the rules of the game—"

"Then I will definitely feel that he has a conspiracy." Daojun did not hesitate.

"Right. But what would you think if he had already broken with the rules of the game, was seriously injured, signed a life-threatening bet with you, and then won by a narrow margin? You would think that he was just lucky, and there was nothing wrong with him for the time being Threats can be exploited."

"..."

hiss.

Daojun always felt that Xia Qingyang was secretly calling him stupid.

Xia Qingyang pursed his lips slightly, putting away his thoughts of molesting Daojun.

In fact, there is another very important reason.That's what she wanted, not just to be Ren Yi's military advisor.

In order for Ren Yi to fully trust her decision in the future, from the very beginning, she has to grasp the scale and elevate her status.

Xia Qingyang sat leisurely, as if waiting for Ren Yi to digest all this.

This calm posture made the mysterious things she said more convincing.

After all, Ren Yi is no longer a coaxable little girl.

After a brief shock, she quickly calmed down and looked at Xia Qingyang with a hint of complexity and awe:

"Even if what you said is true, why did you tell me?"

"It is difficult to change the status quo with our power alone."

Ren Yi stared at Xia Qingyang closely, not letting go of any look on her face: "What do you mean?"

"Your Highness, do you want me to speak clearly?"

Ever since he revealed his identity as a "master" disciple, Xia Qingyang automatically assumed the perspective of being unpredictable and contemptuous of ordinary people, and his tone of voice gradually became stronger.

This can be regarded as a small skill when communicating with people-taking advantage of the other party's hesitation and weakening momentum, taking the right to speak and occupying a strong position will be more conducive to the subsequent fists.

Just like that, before entering the door, Ren Yi, who was still holding the airs of the eldest princess, was already hesitated by Xia Qingyang's counter-question.
