"What other problems does Your Majesty have?"

In front of Xiaoli and Ai Tosaka, Gao De has always maintained an absolutely loyal and selfless personality, and he can't reveal his heart, so he has to go along with the words.

"What other problems can there be?" remembering the faces of those courtiers in the court, Tosaka Ai had the urge to pour, but the words changed when they came to his mouth: "If the emperor has any problems, the empress will have any problems." ”

Seeing Gao De frowning and starting to ponder again, Ai Tosaka hurriedly pulled away from his thoughts. "Not all demon forces are willing to submit to the imperial court and have a tacit understanding with the imperial court. Compared with the Blood Tower Society and the Sea Tower Society, there are still some forces that are the henchmen of the Ming Dynasty, such as the forces organized with the four major Kou as the core. ”

Vampires, black-skinned bean sprouts, rat people, orcs, judging from Gao De's current vision, the four major Kou races largely coincide with the demon forces. Vampires and nezumi have disappeared for years, orcs have only sporadic activity, and black-skinned bean sprouts are barely threatening in the million-dollar mountains of the west. Of course, it is not ruled out that these races may merge with other demon forces, such as the cadres of the Dark Hand Blood Tower, Old Man He, Wang Zihe, and Shen Ze, whose physical recovery ability is incredibly strong. He was able to put the blood demon on his upper body and had been transformed, but he was still far inferior to them. Gauder suspects that there is something wrong with their race, perhaps the most resilient vampire in legend.

"It's possible," Gao De expressed his doubts, but Ai Tosaka shook his head, "but it is rumored that vampires are a race created by blood demons, and if the recovery ability is strengthened through the power of blood demons, then there is no trace from the body to the soul." ”

"You're thinking too far," Ai Tosaka finally picked up the rhythm, "The Four Great Kou are just potential threats, and there are more real threats, such as the Taiyi Sect. ”

This Gao De knew that the Aurora people originally had a "way of nature" similar to Taoism, but they were deprived of the right to speak by a group of Taoist priests who engaged in the "way of goodness" very early. Now the Taoist priests in Daming are either rural gods or Taiyi evil ways, but I didn't expect these people to be demons.

Gao De shook his head secretly, he should have thought that this kind of sect was the best at disguising the root of the demon power, and it was much more rigorous and powerful than the Bazaar-like organization of the Secret Hand Blood Tower.

"It's not to summon demons, or to summon demons and evil gods who have changed their faces," said Ai Tosaka, "or they want to subvert the Ming Dynasty and replace it themselves." These demon forces are okay to say, they can't enter the gray realm to clear them, and they can also solve them in this world. There are also forces that have a headache, and after the empress and I learned about their existence, we both felt that they were the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty. ”

Gao De's attention was immediately attracted, there are even more terrible enemies?

"Since the Jingling Rebellion, a force has appeared in the Gray Realm. They organized each magic tower and each tower together, contacted and exchanged information, and even mediated disputes and negotiated interests. Until now, it has become a huge organization similar to the Magic Tower Alliance, although it is still very loose, once it is entangled, the consequences are unimaginable. ”

Ai Tosaka frowned: "We only know the name of this organization is ...... Tallinn, any details are not yet known, only the people in the tower of the magic tower can access it. ”

Gao De was also faintly shocked, if Ai Tosaka didn't lie to him, the demon forces were closely attached to the Ming Dynasty, and they were part of the Ming Dynasty, then this Tallinn would be an underground government. Even if it is just a martial arts alliance leader similar to martial arts, it is an existence that the imperial court will never tolerate.

"Does the Holy Mountain care?" he only felt that something was wrong, "Okay, the people of the Holy Mountain can't enter the Gray Realm, so it makes sense to care, but the imperial court doesn't care? ”

"Don't you think about it," Ai Tosaka's tone was serious, "It's going to end badly, as for the reason......"

She turned her eyes away and said perfunctorily: "This is the tacit agreement established by the Holy Mountain, and the imperial court will not interfere with the gray realm." ”

Gao De also asked, but Ai Tosaka was impatient, "Okay, that's all I can tell you." In short, even if the series of cases of the old prince and the sisterhood is over, you should also recuperate. ”

"I know you're not reconciled," it was her turn to circle around Gode with her hands behind her back, "but I warn you not to rush forward in your self-righteousness." You've gone too far before, and if you go deep into the level of the Gray Realm and the Magic Tower, and cause any trouble, then no one can save you, not Xiaoli. ”

"I see your loyalty to Daming and the empress, and the empress also approves of it. When the empress is busy for a while, maybe she will summon you to reward you in person. You should focus on what you believe you are, which is to be supportive and supportive. Since you are talented in this regard, you should play well, and doing a good job is enough to make Daming a lot more stable. ”

She stood on tiptoe and patted Gao De's shoulder: "That's it, aren't you still injured?" Go back to recuperate, Xiaoli will come back at any time, and I have to blame me again when I see that you are still tossing." ”

Seeing her posture, Gao De knew that he couldn't say anything more today. Okay, wait until you see Xiaoli, and then work Xiaoli.

As for the end......

Gao De secretly sneered, if he didn't crush Shen Ze's bones and scatter ashes, and his soul was pinched into a figure, how could it be over?

He definitely didn't want to be sacrificed as a dessert to the devil's mouth, shot in the head with a sniper rifle, and kidnapped his sister.

"I feel that he is still a little unwilling," back to the Qianming Palace, Tosaka Ai reported to the empress, "I told him a lot of inside information, let him see a deeper and more dangerous world, that is not what he has the ability to intervene, I believe he can settle down." ”

Ai Tosaka still has doubts about herself, "But ...... I don't know him as well as you, Your Majesty, and if he uses the scales of chaos to enter the gray realm to toss, it will be troublesome. ”

"Impossible," the empress waved her hand and said firmly, "Although he is not as good as Xingtian, he has pure mortal strength, and he can't enter the gray realm." ”

Ai Tosaka nodded, and when she saw the empress writing some numbers on the white paper, she asked curiously, "What is this?"

"The diffusion mold machine is to shake the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, and if you make concessions in the inner library, there is no place to make concessions. ”

The empress sighed: "I don't choose either, there is only one way left to raise taxes to the state and county, and I am calculating how much I can get." ”

"Tax increase?" Tosaka Ai blinked and reminded the empress: "When we traveled around the world, the most common grievance we heard was the imperial court's ten thousand taxes, and now Your Majesty still wants to increase it?"

"Of course, it is not for the common people," said the empress, "it is to go to the mines scattered in the prefectures and counties to collect taxes, which are nominally the imperial court, but the household departments do not collect any taxes, and they are all subcontracted by the prefectures and counties to the gentry, and it is justified to take some oil from them." ”

Shangguan Qing added later, "As long as you send competent people to do it, supplemented by honest and honest people to inspect, plus Your Majesty Tianwei, there should be no problems, and it is estimated that more than 20 billion will be collected." ”

"That's great," Ai Tosaka breathed a sigh of relief, not afraid of problems, afraid of not trying to figure out a way.

"Three hundred billion can be counted on," the empress gathered the numbers and nodded in satisfaction.

"This money is specially prepared for the Songzhou Rebellion," she wrote down two words, "it's called ...... Loose pay. ”

After finishing this stall, she spat out and shouted: "Xiao Ai, drive for me, I want to go out of the palace in micro-service!"

Ai Tosaka was stunned, "You're going to see him?

"Of course not," the empress raised her willow eyebrows, "I'm going to vent my evil spirit!"

At noon, the square of Xicheng Wanwufang has been blocked. I don't know if it's because the government and the media are in place, or if the business is bigger than life, the shops around the square are still open. A group of people poured into Deli Jewelry, surrounding a counter somewhere. The nobles of Chukyo often do this kind of thing, and it is not surprising that the tooth girls and tourists in the neighborhood are used to seeing it.

"This, this ......"

The beautiful girl in a big red robe and a phoenix-winged crown pointed to the chest pendant and bracelet on the counter, "Wrap it up!"

The tooth girl opened the counter tremblingly, and her heart was like thunder and lightning.

How can this girl wear a dragon and phoenix robe that only an empress can wear?

The women of the jewelry shop are highly trained, and it is essential for them to distinguish between the rules of clothing.

Just as her hand was about to touch the jewel, the girl snorted: "That's my jewel! How dare you touch it with your dirty hands!"

I!?

The tooth girl was so shocked that her liver and gallbladder were cracked, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand, but the other hand pressed down the cabinet door at the same time. Suddenly pressed on her hand and the pain caused her body to curl up, and then her head hit the glass again, so that her hand suffered again.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty forgive your sins!"

She pulled out her hand and covered her head, holding back the pain and tears to find the flannel. The girl hooked her hand, and the jewel flew up by itself, and the wave broke through the glass and fell into her hand.

"Cheesy stuff, indeed, I'm not wrong. ”

The girl played with the bracelet and the pendant, and sighed, "But who let us look at it?" ”

Nodding again, the girl smiled at the tooth girl, "Don't you recognize me?" ”

The tooth girl finally remembered the events of last night, and the pair of "dog men and women" left too deep an impression on her.

She shuddered for a moment, trying to say something like an excuse, but only a gurgling sound came from her throat. She squatted stiffly and tried to kneel, and her body shook and rolled her eyes and fainted on her back.

"Hey ......"

The empress was still unsatisfied: "It's just the beginning, and the lines I thought of haven't finished yet." ”

Ai Tosaka next to her shook her head at the empress helplessly and funny, and the empress shrugged her shoulders and turned to leave.

Tosaka Ai caught up with the empress and whispered, "It's really tasteless." ”

"If you don't have a product, you don't have a product," the empress snorted, "I just don't want to be angry with this!"

Ai Tosaka instructed his subordinates, "Deal with that tooth girl and let her forget what happened just now." ”

The empress stopped and took out a stack of golden dragon tickets, "Give this to her." ”

"The people below paid the price," Tosaka joked, "Are you compensating again?"

"No," the Empress smiled playfully, "it's a reward." ”
