After Sun Xiang finished praising himself, His Majesty the Emperor smiled, pointed at Sun Xiang and said; "You're the first nobleman I've ever met to praise yourself nakedly, do you know what it means to be subtle?"

Sun Xiang also smiled and asked His Majesty the Emperor gently: "Dear uncle, your words are contrary to your ears." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info If you feel that my words are harsh, it means that I am a great loyal servant. Absolute loyalist. ”

His Majesty the Emperor was: "Just now you were secretly changing concepts, and now you are still secretly changing concepts." The reason why your words are harsh is because you don't give credit to you implicitly, but are too direct. ”

"Didn't I go to the academy, it's also called uneducated. When I go to the Demon Martial Arts Academy, I must learn what it means to be subtle. "Sun Xiang is going to play the scoundrel to the end.

His Majesty the Emperor is out of options, and if he continues to talk about it, he will probably have to be a teacher to teach him cultural lessons first. "Well, merit will be rewarded, this is the policy of the Empire, and I will crown you as a viscount. But before I do that, I have something to ask you. ”

Sun Xiang interrupted His Majesty the Emperor's words in time and shook his head: "Your Majesty, I don't want a viscount." ”

"Oh?" The emperor was stunned for a moment, then stared at Sun Xiang and asked; "And what do you want?"

Sun Xiang said firmly: "I want to exempt Astor City from taxes for ten years as a reward." ”

"Huh?" The emperor was stunned again and asked solemnly, "Was it your old man's idea?" ”

"No, it's my idea, and the old man is angry." Sun Xiang replied easily.

"What about your old man's opinion?"

"I was talking to him about five years, and he thought it should be."

"Then why do you say ten years?"

"Doesn't this see that your old man is happy today, so I said it for five more years."

"Haha" His Majesty the Emperor laughed out loud at Sun Xiang's scoundrel. He smiled and asked, "Then what if I'm not happy today?" ”

"Then I'll say five years, and if you're unhappy, you have to be reasonable."

"Well, I'm not happy now." His Majesty the Emperor said half-jokingly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. On behalf of the people of Astor City, I would like to thank Your Majesty for your wisdom! Sun Xiang immediately got up, saluted respectfully to His Majesty the Emperor, and said loudly.

"Uh, this..."The emperor only knew that he had fallen for it, how could this be regarded as a promise?! Looks like I haven't said it yet.

He pointed at Sun Xiang, and it took him a long time to speak: "You kid, those little guys are not wronged at all when they lose to you!" It's a blessing that you didn't play them to death. ”

His Majesty the Emperor is one of the many people who knows the inside story.

Sun Xiang began to cry: "Your Majesty, in fact, I am thinking about you." You have taken a big advantage, and I am the one who suffers. ”

The emperor was interested, and he wanted to see what other crooked reasoning this kid had: "How do you say this?" ”

"You count, the viscount is a lifelong title, and you have to give me a fortune every year. If I live to be a few hundred years old, how much will the empire have to pay me? And the taxes of Astor City have only been exempted for five years, and compared with my Viscount Yulu, your old man is making a lot of money. ”

This time the emperor was really angry, how could he settle accounts like this? So he said, "Okay, in the future, your title will always be a baron, and you will never be sealed again." ”

Sun Xiang was very happy, and immediately replied: "Yes, in the future, if I make a meritorious contribution, I will give me other rewards, don't give me a seal." ”

The emperor came back to his senses and looked at Sun Xiang meaningfully: "You kid, you are so calculating." ”

"What's the matter, I'm helping Your Majesty calculate, I'm a loyal minister."

The corners of the emperor's mouth finally began to twitch, not infected by the old man, but by Sun Xiangqi.

Sun Xiang stood up again, bowed, and said, "Thank you again, Your Majesty, I won't leave tonight, I can get the edict tomorrow, right?" ”

Grandpa had already told him that he could go to the arraignment tomorrow, so he had to live here. This was also approved by the emperor. The emperor also wanted to talk more about this kid, and wanted to know more about this prodigal son.

The emperor was completely defeated by Sun Xiang's scoundrels, and said angrily; "Yes, I'll give it to you tomorrow."

He had already thought about it, and he would find Old Man Sun in a while, and he wanted to settle accounts with that old slippery head.

"Thank you, now your majesty can ask if you have anything." Sun Xiang immediately changed the subject.

Sure enough, the distracted emperor was diverted, looked at Sun Xiang solemnly and asked, "This time, you have to answer my question honestly." ”

Sun Xiang also nodded seriously.

Seeing Sun Xiang's serious appearance, the emperor was satisfied. He asked, "The garrison of Astor City will have a formation, which you taught them?" ”

"It's not one, it's three." Sun Xiang corrected.

The emperor was satisfied, and he made a trick in his words, which was to test Sun Xiang's loyalty, because he had long known that there were three kinds. But Sun Xiang's following words made him half angry. "I can give it to you right away, just change it for a year's taxes."

The emperor didn't want to talk nonsense with Sun Xiang anymore, so he asked: "They also have a reward elixir, called the Cleansing Pill, which can effectively change the physical fitness. You also refined it? ”

"It's not." Sun Xiang shook his head without hesitation, and then said: "It was given to me by my teacher, and he sent people to send these pills from time to time, sometimes more and sometimes less, so we can only accumulate them as a reward." ”

This is a good caliber that is unified with the old man. He didn't want to be the Empire's pharmacy director, not even the chief pharmacist.

The emperor had long known from the old man's speculation that there might be someone behind Sun Xiang, so he didn't care when he heard Sun Xiang mention the teacher.

The emperor ran out of ideas, and asked tentatively, "Can you give me a few grains a month?" ”

It seems that this thing is not needed by the imperial army, but the members of the royal family can use it, so he had to put down his body and ask Sun Xiang for it.

"Three grains, no more. If my teacher loses the supply, it will have to be cut off. Sun Xiang replied very simply.

"No, it's the same as the Sun family."

"Okay, one more year of tax exemption will make the deal."

The emperor now has the idea of arresting Sun Xiang and beating him violently. This little rabbit cub actually bargained with himself, don't you know the relationship between the four major families and the royal family?! In the face of Sun Xiang's scoundrels, the emperor simply selectively remembered Sun Xiang's words, and pretended not to hear the others.

Sun Xiang doesn't care, a transaction is a transaction, and he has a way to control the transaction.

So both began to choose what was beneficial to them to negotiate. Sometimes it's not equal at all, but no one can find out. You say yours, I answer mine.

Finally, the emperor is going to talk about marriage. Just like the situation when talking to the old man of the Sun family, as soon as Emperor Deke mentioned this topic, he was immediately turned to another road by Sun Xiang.

His Majesty the Emperor was completely shocked by Sun Xiang's ruling ideas!

Emperor Deke has always wanted to be an enlightened emperor since he came to power, but he can't find a breakthrough, and now Sun Xiang's idea has finally opened his mind. At this time, he had long forgotten about the seven princesses and eight princesses, and seriously discussed the issue of political system with Sun Xiang.

His Majesty the Emperor is the clearer the debate, the clearer his thoughts, and the more excited he is in his spirit. Sun Xiang, on the other hand, was already sleepy to death, because he hadn't rested much during the seven days he had been in the Library Pavilion.

In fact, the emperor was asking about the whole process, and Sun Xiang didn't use his mind at all, he just took out some ready-made experience in the Shenzhou Continent and threw it to the emperor at will, but the emperor was very excited. In the end, he saw that Sun Xiang was too sleepy, so he let Sun Xiang go and ran to the imperial study in a hurry. At this time, he didn't even remember that the matter of the seventh princess had not yet been decided.

When he arrived at the imperial study, the emperor urgently recruited the old man of the Sun family into the palace and came to the imperial study to discuss matters. The old man of the Sun family seemed to know that this would be the case, and immediately rushed to the imperial study, so the two of them began to discuss nervously until very late.

At this time, Sun Xiang had already fallen asleep, and even drooled.

The next day, Sun Xiang left Xiaoling in his aunt's palace, and then left with the officials sent by the emperor, and did not return alone until the afternoon. After seeing the two captured "messengers" and the great swordsman, Sun Xiang immediately knew that he had run in vain. Seeing the expressions and demeanors of these people, Sun Xiang knew that they had been completely brainwashed, and it was even more difficult to learn more information from their mouths than to ascend to the sky. So, he taught the Imperial Intelligence Department some of the interrogation methods commonly used in Shenzhou and left. He missed Shenzhou's immortal cultivation methods very much, at that time he had a soul searching spell, and it was too easy to know what to do.

At this time, he was holding the edict of His Majesty the Emperor in his hand, the main content of which was to exempt the city of Astor from paying taxes for seven years.

The emperor doesn't want to be exempt from so much, five years is already his limit. However, the old man of the Sun family said a word, which made the emperor grit his teeth and sign this edict.

The old man of the Sun family said to His Majesty the Emperor: "That kid was short of money back then, and he dared to rob the city lord of Baleno City. When the emperor heard this, he immediately changed his mind. I had to comfort myself that where rabbits don't, there aren't many taxes, so it's free. As a result, when the tax revenue of Astor City was reported in the eighth year, the emperor realized that he had been fooled, and that it was a barren place, and there was a mountain of gold spewing gold. Of course, that's an afterthought.
