The way of entering the palace was not as fanciful as imagined, but rather low-key. It can only be said that the penetration of the hidden guards into the Eastern Palace was too deep.

At each link, someone gave Chen Xiyi the green light all the way, and finally got into the carriage from the back door and headed towards the palace.

Although this was concealed and low-key, it couldn't be hidden from those who cared. Most of the forces stopped paying attention soon after they learned that Chen Xiyi was in the carriage to the palace.

Because in their eyes, this matter is considered to be dust. The Empress has taken away the most valuable retainers in the East Palace. The rest of the retainers are almost divided up by the princes, and there is no room for other forces. meddle.

In the Great Seal Dynasty, the royal family was the biggest force, not some aristocratic families or officials.

Chen Xiyi's entry into the palace went very smoothly, there was no assassination, and no one jumped out to make trouble. The journey was very peaceful, and in the end he was taken directly to Shangyang Palace, which is the sleeping palace of the Queen of Heaven.

To be honest, Chen Xiyi really didn't understand that the queen's bedroom was called Shangyang Palace. After all, this thing was more like a Taoist palace, but Chen Xiyi also understood that this was the queen's stubbornness. Although she was a daughter, But not weaker than others, regardless of gender.

After entering the Shangyang Palace, the inside is filled with the scent of burning sandalwood, which is said to be able to refresh the mind and uplift the spirit.

Through the bead curtain, one could see Tianhou crouching over her desk reviewing memorials at this time, which was considered one of her daily tasks. As for Emperor Xi, she was also reviewing memorials, but the difference was that Emperor Xi was in the imperial study.

"Mr. Chen is here, please sit down first, I still have some government affairs." Tianhou didn't look up, but said something to herself, and then continued to frowned.

Chen Xiyi looked around, an eunuch moved a chair for Chen Xiyi to sit down, and served tea and snacks.

"The second sage is coming." Chen Xiyi said in a low voice.

The sound was not loud, but it could be heard like a needle falling in the relatively quiet Shangyang Palace.

Even Tian Hou, who was reviewing the memorial, couldn't help being dazed for a moment, and the movement of her hands froze, causing a large ink stain to fall on the memorial.

The expressions of these eunuchs also changed, and they immediately moved away from Chen Xiyi in horror. No one thought that Chen Xiyi would be so bold and dare to say such words.

Although this Empress Dowager is the only empress who has not been criticized by the officials for interfering in the government since this dynasty, and therefore she was crowned Empress Dowager because of this, Emperor Xi is generally called a saint. A little overjoyed.

But this does not mean that Tianhou will be able to stand in the same position as Emperor Xi.

Soon, the sound of Tianhou reviewing the memorial reappeared, it seemed as if she hadn't heard what Chen Xiyi said, and the atmosphere in the entire Shangyang Palace became more and more strange. The eunuchs and maids waiting in the palace were full of atmosphere No one dared to breathe, and no one dared to leave the Shangyang Palace.

Chen Xiyi didn't care about this at all. He knew that these four words caused a huge wave in Tianhou's heart, and he was just pretending to be calm at this moment.

Both the breathing and the heart rate are already a little rapid at this time, but the other party is well controlled, and most people can't detect it.

Time passed by every minute and every second, Tianhou quickly finished reviewing today's government affairs, and then recruited a confidant to send these memorials away.

Then he looked at Chen Xiyi: "As expected of a talented man who is famous in the imperial capital, he really has a good appearance."

Chen Xiyi was shocked by these words. Doesn't your heart hurt when you speak so out of conscience?

Call him dignified?

Chen Xiyi knew that if he didn't equip Qingxu's fashion, he would basically have an ordinary face, how could he have a dignified appearance.

"The Empress has won the prize, her appearance is just passing by." Chen Xiyi said quite calmly, with a hint of disdain in her tone.

This made Tianhou feel certain, she knew that Chen Xiyi seemed to be disdainful of judging others by their appearance, intentionally or not.

"Mr. Chen's words are very true. It's my fault." Tianhou knew that soliciting must be done with sincerity, not superiority, so it's not called solicitation, but a threat.

She is not the emperor, so it is not a big problem to admit a mistake. The queen can be wrong, but the emperor cannot be wrong.

Chen Xiyi didn't continue to put on airs, but asked, "I think the Queen of Heaven invited me here, there must be something that needs my help."

In this regard, he resolutely did not mention the matter of the two saints coming to court just now.

These words made the Queen of Heaven stunned for a moment, just to serve? Then why did you say such exciting words just now?

"I see that Mr. has no fame, and I can't bear to live on the street this time, so how about recruiting Mr. into the palace, as a scholar of the Imperial Academy?" This means Chi Guoguo's solicitation.

It probably means that I will give you a false job, work on my side, and arrange benefits and benefits for you, so that you will not be wronged.

It is also possible to transfer Tianhou to a real position through the Ministry of Officials, but the problem is that it is not necessary. Chen Xiyi has no fame, and if he really wants to enter the court as an official, it is different from sending someone to Emperor Xi, so naturally If you can't let go, you have to stay by your side to advise yourself.

Chen Xiyi glanced at these eunuchs and maids, and then shook his head: "Thank you for the kindness of Tianhou, but Tianhou is not good enough, I am afraid that it is not enough for me to accept the position of Tianhou as Qingxiu in the Imperial Academy."

As soon as these words came out, the eunuchs and maids around couldn't help trembling. This is like Chi Guoguo scolding the Queen of Heaven that you are not qualified to recruit me.

Hearing this, the Queen of Heaven was also furious. She is not qualified?

It just calmed down quickly. After all, as a qualified politician, it is very important to control one's emotions.

"It seems that Mr. Chen has big ambitions, but how big is this ambition?" Tianhou seemed to understand what the other party wanted to say?

Chen Xiyi didn't speak, but drank tea on his own, showing no respect at all.

Not only did this not make the Queen feel upset, but she said: "Everyone, step down, and I will discuss it with Mr. Chen in detail."

The eunuchs and maids hesitated a bit. It is not a good thing for a lonely man and a widow to live in the same room. If it gets out, something may happen.

Finally, after looking at each other one by one, they didn't say anything, and retreated on their own. This queen is not the queens in the past, but the one with real power in her hands. With Chen Xiyi's sentence before, the two saints are coming to court, things are really going to explode.

After the people had left, Chen Xiyi said slowly, "I just want to make a name for myself by being a dragon. It doesn't matter who is the dragon. The main thing is to have this skill. I don't know if Tianhou has the courage to reach the Ninth Five-Year Plan?"

These words were quite straightforward, and the Queen of Heaven couldn't help but her heart skipped a beat when she said them. She also never thought that Chen Xiyi would say such outrageous words.

Chen Xiyi didn't think about supporting a female emperor to come out. His idea was very simple, that after killing Emperor Xi, he would just let the Queen of Heaven take the blame. Naturally, he cut off the luck of Emperor Hu Xi.

If Emperor Xi had recruited him back then, he would have killed the Empress and let Emperor Xi take the blame. Anyway, this is the reason, whoever finds Chen Xiyi late will be the first to be unlucky.

As for why he took the blame, of course it was because Chen Xiyi wanted to cut off his luck.

The expression of luck includes a kind of reputation, so Chen Xiyi can't get attached to these things. If he really gets attached, he has to change his vest, which is so troublesome.

Then there is power, which is naturally one of the manifestations of luck, not to mention gold luck, which is particularly cautious in this respect.

At that time, he will use this to cover the sky with one hand. Isn't this the best carrier, and then there will be no need to worry about Daxi's national luck at all, and Chen Xiyi can continue to dawdle.

If you really want to do it, Chen Xiyi can do it in an instant, but what about after it's done?

He lacks intermediate process data. Although it is unlikely that he will go astray, it will take time to re-study. It is better to take it slowly at the beginning. Besides, he is not in a hurry. The reincarnation function has not been cooled down. The merits and food have not yet been digested, and it is more interesting to be a fun person and harm the world than to stay in the basement.

Otherwise, I would be really upset. It would be fine to show my real body and destroy the world, but what's the point of that? Wouldn't it be a fool to vent simply for the sake of venting.

The world is so big, there are many resources, and the benefits are even richer. If you don't think about how to maximize yourself, but think about killing and killing, you will get nothing.

Chen Xiyi has never taken an unusual path, otherwise, his own strength would not have grown so fast.

"It seems that Tianhou doesn't have the courage anymore." Chen Xiyi's tone was filled with disappointment.

"I have the courage, but I don't know if Mr. Chen has the ability!" The Empress was tempted. As a politician, she is still very eager for power. Can she not be tempted?

When I thought that if I ascended to the Ninth Five-Year Supreme position as a woman, it would be unprecedented. How many people in the history books can do it?

"I have as much ability as the Empress Dowager." Chen Xiyi restrained the calmness on his face, and said quite seriously instead.

He can read and change scripts, but is he capable enough? If he was really not good before, but now he is fine, just to test how far he can grasp and deduce the future.

"Officials, households, rituals, soldiers, criminals, and workers, which department is Mr. Chen optimistic about?" Tianhou asked immediately.

Chen Xiyi said casually: "It depends on which department the Empress wants."

"How about the official department?" Tianhou said with piercing eyes. If she has mastered the official department, then she has mastered the promotion channels for officials.

"The Empress Dowager's courage is still not enough. Children only make choices, and adults want everything."

"Within three days, if I can't help Tianhou take control of the bureaucracy, I will resign myself."

For Chen Xiyi, the Queen of Heaven was hooked.

The Empress Dowager was also surprised by Chen Xiyi's tone of voice. It was no longer impossible for her to control the bureaucracy for three days, it was quite absurd.

This is one of the six departments of the imperial court. The department in charge of the promotion of officials is not a cat or a dog. Even Emperor Xi may not be able to fully grasp it. Where does Chen Xiyi have the confidence to solve it within three days.

"Okay, I'll trust you just once, and the secret guard is up to you. I hope Mr. Chen can give me a surprise within three days." Tian Hou narrowed her eyes and directly delegated power.

She knew that it was unlikely that Chen Xiyi would ever turn to Emperor Xi again, and just relying on the words "Second Saint Linchao" would cut off the way of Emperor Xi.

Among the eunuchs and maids just now, there must be Emperor Xi's eyeliner.

So in this regard, she was very relieved, and handing over the hidden guards to Chen Xiyi was not only about delegating power, but also monitoring.

She was not afraid of Chen Xiyi's blackmail at all, and even if she was, with her ability, she could completely turn the danger into a bargain, but Chen Xiyi, who offended her, had to be careful.

"It seems that Tianhou has great confidence in me. I have even transferred the hidden guards. After that day, my surprise will be waiting for you." Chen Xiyi said so, but he was not surprised at all. After all, he had to do things by himself , I can't just give nothing.

The emperor did not send out hungry soldiers, if Chen Xiyi was really not given anything to do this, it would not be doing work, but making things difficult.
