Shani asks the maid to bring her queen dress and help her put it on. This dress has a rather complex structure, although it can set off the figure and highlight the temperament, but a person can't put all the accessories such as corsets and skirt racks.

"Madame, you are so beautiful in this dress! I wonder which tailor made it for you?"

"Myself. Shani asked the servants to bring the mirror, looked at the reflection inside, then nodded, and asked the servants to take off the clothes. "Put it in the fire and burn it, and then bring the clothes from the deepest part of the closet on my left. ”

The servant was a little frightened, and did not know why Her Majesty the Queen had burned this beautiful dress, which was obviously flawless, perhaps because Her Majesty was in a bad mood? At this time, no one dared to touch her moldy head, and did not dare to ask a word, so he should quickly throw it into the fire, and go to the one who took the clothes. The wardrobe on the left is full of regular clothes, and Xia Ni will design and make them by herself when she has nothing to do, most of them are for Feiqi, and a small part is for herself.

The deepest part of the cabinet was a combat suit halfway between leather armor and clothing, with a pale blue hue throughout, including a short-sleeved blouse with a short skirt, gloves, trousers, and boots. Xia Ni had never worn this outfit before, and it looked much more generous than her figure, a little fat, and there were no special accessories, so she wore it alone. At this time, the shape of the dress suddenly changed, and she shrank inward, just to fit her figure, and then relaxed a little and became very fitting.

"This is a dragon skin, which His Majesty the Emperor took from the back of the blue dragon's neck. Dragons often scratch and bite at the back of each other's necks when fighting each other, where the skin is generally stronger than elsewhere. Xia Ni looked at herself in the mirror and finally smiled with satisfaction. "Or is this outfit more suitable for today's scene. ”

"Is it an important day?" asked the maid as she put on her necklace for Shanny.

"It's nothing, the ministers are here today, so it's relatively important. ”

The servants looked at each other, and they all felt that Her Majesty was strange today, and her mood was constantly fluctuating, which was very different from usual. They wondered if the two Majens had quarreled yesterday, or at least they were in a mood?

At the other end of the palace, His Majesty the Emperor on the Iron Throne was not in a good mood either. He put his fingers on his cheeks, his eyes fixed on the minister who was reporting the situation below, but his mind didn't seem to be there. Every now and then, his eyes would twitch as he glanced in the direction of the entrance to the throne room. It's just that the Iron Throne is still some distance away from its subjects, and the people below can't see it.

Chancellor of the Exchequer Goode stood in the audience and spoke as loudly as he could, which he thought would make Feige hear more clearly. "Your Majesty, the large amount of gold brought back from the Second World has entered the market, and the price of gold has begun to fall, and some people have begun to take advantage of the changes in the price difference between gold and silver to make a profit in it. ”

"I think it's going to happen sooner or later. People are always greedy, and even though the Truth Thunder Goddess Church has spent hundreds or thousands of years educating people, it still hasn't changed much. Do you think this will change much in my hands?"

Goode shook his head, sighed, and then said: "Your Majesty, although it has been stipulated in advance that precious metals such as gold and silver cannot be brought back to the Yongli Continent without permission, and can only be handed over to the expeditionary army corps and the working group dispatched by the treasury, many people still secretly violate the rules. The development of magic has made space bags no longer rare, and it has also increased the difficulty of investigation and punishment. ”

"It's not magic, it's the human heart. I recently looked at some historical accounts and found a simple pattern. When the law is strict, the desire to sin can be curbed, but the desire of the aristocracy to use their privileges for profit rises, which leads to failure. Now there is no noblemanship, and my only privilege is left. I don't have any particular desire for anything other than magic, so I think it's time to be strict with the law. ”

Goode thought for a moment, and nodded slowly and hesitantly: "Your Majesty, your Code of Law is a very comprehensive and detailed tome, and it has a good effect on all aspects of the empire. The problem now is that the position of the legal director has been vacant, which has led to a slight reduction in execution. I suggest, is it not ......"

Feige lifted his hand and glanced at the door. Through the phantom snake Koktar, who was wandering in the palace, he already knew that Xia Ni had changed her clothes, and she also carried a scimitar on her waist, carrying a leather bag of various battle potions and alchemy items, and walked towards the throne hall with a determined attitude. He estimated the time it would take for Shani to walk, and then sped up his performance.

"Since Count Matt, there has been no Minister of Law in the new Empire, not that I will always occupy this position, but that there has not yet been anyone who can master the Code. Well, when someone arrived, I would have wanted to hand over this responsibility a long time ago, and it could be regarded as a supervision of me. Of course, now is not the time to discuss personnel, but punishment. I ordered the construction of a red lotus room in Tawu Harbor City to be used for burning at the stake. Burning at the stake is aimed at those who have committed the most serious crimes, the traitors...... These people who clearly violated the military order can also be placed in the red lotus room. Trying to deal with some of them early should have a good deterrent effect. ”

"Your Majesty, please think again. The Red Lotus Room is very terrifying, and it does not play a role in deterring and transforming the captives there in the second world, but has produced many terrible legends. Goode stiffened his head and said, "I remember you once said that the Red Lotus Burning Stake was for the Second World, not for the Magic Empire's own people. ”

"Then set it up against those who have violated military orders. The location of those people's disobedience is in the Second World......" Feige shook his head and said, "Do as I command, not question here." You have to pay attention to your own thoughts, you can't think that if it doesn't play a deterrent role in the second world, it shouldn't exist in the Yongli Continent. Don't forget the pastors of the Goddess of Truth and Thunder Church, they didn't play a role either, are they going to ban the church?"

"Of course it shouldn't!" Goode felt a slight sweat on his forehead. He lowered his head and looked behind him to the left and right, hoping to find an ally. Feeling his gaze, Eddie took two steps forward, but she couldn't get out of the third step.

"Go back, I know what you think. Feige waved his finger, and with a fluctuation of mana, Eddie returned to his place in a stiff position. "I believe that strict laws are fundamental to the integrity and strength of the empire, but it is more important to have a strong vehicle to enforce the law. In the Empire, this carrier is the Emperor! ”

All the ministers turned their heads and saw Xia Ni, dressed in military uniform, walking quickly into the conference hall. She smiled, nodded her head to greet the ministers, and then pressed the scimitar at her waist and walked towards the queen's place. She had a nice, soft, comfortable high-backed armchair next to the Iron Throne that allowed her to listen to the meeting. She managed in that position when Fitch was in a "meditation retreat." However, when Feige sat on the Iron Throne, Xia Ni had never been to the throne room for the first time.

"I heard outside that the Red Lotus is going to be burned at the stake in Yongli Continent, is this true?"

Feiqi nodded: "Exactly. Now that even the military order can't control those guys, and they have to use some strong enough deterrent methods, and the Red Lotus burning at the stake is just right. ”

"I think so, too. ...... the right people with the right means" Shani came to the Iron Throne and looked up at Feiqi. "You have a foresight and have prepared a sophisticated plan for the world to accomplish your ulterior purpose. Don't you think about the cost and the consequences? Don't you think it's very inhumane to pay that price? Where is your compassion? Have you ever thought about others?"

"What are you talking about?" Feige gripped the blade of the Iron Throne with both hands, struggling to prop himself up. A drop of blood dripped from the severed palm and silently landed on the twisted pedestal of the throne. "Are you questioning me, questioning your Imperial Majesty?"

"Ah, Your Majesty, you are hiding too deeply. "Shani stepped onto the stairs of the Iron Throne. Suddenly, two four-meter-tall iron golems appeared out of thin air next to the throne, like two giants, one left and one right, raised their fists, and made a gesture to fight. The ministers were in an uproar, they never knew that there were invisible golem guards here, and their target was actually the queen. Fortunately, as soon as Feiqi raised his hand, the two golems received the order, and their movements immediately stopped, and their fists were frozen in the air.

"Your position is over there. Don't set foot on my Iron Throne. Feige said coldly.

"Yes, your place, my place, everything has to be done in order. Fortunately, you are on top of all pride and self-confidence, and believe that order is a higher ruling power. You still keep your promises, that's my only hope. Shani jerked out her scimitar, the blade glowing coldly. "Feige, I want you to fulfill your promise, and I ask you to stop ......"

"No, you can't!" Fitch flicked his wrist and the Elder Wand was in his hand. "Entropy Extinguishing Strike!"

A black, white, and gray spiral of light instantly struck Shani, pushing her backwards two meters in her position to the clearing in front of the Iron Throne. A steady stream of light shot out of the Elder Wand, then engulfed Shani, igniting her swiftly. The terrible heat stung the skin of the ministers around them, and the silk cloth on someone's body lit flames, and the hair oil of someone rose black smoke. The air throughout the throne distorted and haze, and everyone was exclaiming. Their eyes were focused on Her Majesty, and seeing her as if she had fallen into the magma and was melted, was the most terrible blow to everyone. Eddie fainted trembling directly, and Goode didn't take a breath, and threw himself into the arms of Maxers, who quickly pinched his man.

The throne room was in chaos, so no one could see Feige's tears. There was only one tear, and it was evaporated by the high temperature as soon as it flowed out, and there was no trace at all.

The only one who reacted was Thunder White. She opened her magic matrix, and hundreds of runes flew out at the same time, swooping down on the black, white, and gray beams of entropy annihilation. Fei Qi snorted coldly, not changing at all, watching as the runes were disintegrated, burned, and annihilated at a distance of a meter from the beam. He withdrew his Elder Wand, and at this moment a half-meter-deep magma pit appeared on the ground of the throne hall, and Xia Ni was nowhere to be seen, and there was nothing left.

"No one can question and disobey my orders. Feige's voice was deafening, and all the crying in the throne room was stopped at once. It's not that everyone is frightened, it's that they find themselves unable to make the gesture of crying. Everyone found themselves unable to move, and one by one fell into a stiff state similar to that of a helpless critter being targeted by a fierce beast. Their minds are racing fast, as if the images of their lives are flashing in their brains, but their bodies seem to be sealed in wax.

"How can you kill her!" Thunder White flipped his hands, and two bolts of lightning shot towards Feige. With a wave of his hand, Feige slashed his Elder Wand in an eerie path through the air, and the two bolts of lightning parted left and right, falling into the Iron Throne, and then radiating in all directions along the floor of the throne hall. The ministers fell to the ground one by one and convulsed, and some were directly blown up, and the scene was chaotic for a while. Thunder White hurriedly withdrew.

Seizing the moment, Feige reached forward with his left hand. He was obviously standing on the Iron Throne, but his left hand traveled through the space and appeared directly in front of Thunder Bai, and then tapped it on her forehead. "Calm down, I'm punishing those who betray the Empire. ”

"I don't believe it!" Thunder White found herself frozen, but she was a fragment of the goddess, and although she couldn't move, she could still mobilize the mana of her whole body to prevent Feiqi's spells from entering and affecting her mind.

"You can read the truth and recognize lies. Fei Qi looked at Thunder Bai, and also said to all the ministers: "What Xia Ni wants to do is not good for the entire empire, and it is not good for the Yongli Continent, this is the reason why I want to stop her." I didn't have too much, no less, and I gave her everything she deserved!Thunder White!Tell them if it's real or fake?!"

Thunder White gritted his teeth and stubbornly didn't say anything, and Feige asked her again. She suddenly closed her eyes, gave three vigorous "ahs", and then like a deflated ball. "Yes, what you say is true. You're not lying. ”

"Tell everyone who you are!" said Feiqi, "You attack me, and now you will punish you! You know what my magic can do, or you say, or I use magic to solve this, and my rule will continue to be secure!"

"I ...... I'm ......" Thunder White glared at Feige. At this time, the stubborn character of the Goddess of Truth Thunder burst out in her heart. "What you said is true, then you are also a murderer! Don't try to punish me for this reason, I don't admit it! What if your magic is stronger? Can it change justice and truth? I don't accept it!"

"Hahaha, okay!" Feiqi withdrew his left hand from anger, and at this time everyone found that they could move again, but no one dared to move. Feige gently patted the palm of his right hand with his left hand, causing the Elder Wand held in his right hand to shake slightly in the air. "This is the character that a magician should have! I let you manage the Magic Research Society, and it's true! Thunder Bai, since you are not convinced, then I will let you be responsible for investigating this matter and finding out what mistakes Xia Ni made!"

Fitch then sat back on his throne with a smile on his face—a smile that became a terror in everyone's hearts. "Empires, born from my hands, are also seated under me. I am the Empire! I will carry it out, by law, by custom, by magic, and the end result will be the same!"

"Think about what you should do here!" Fei Qi ordered all the ministers, but said to Thunder Bai: "It's been a long time since anyone has attacked me with magic, but unfortunately there are no waves, it's really boring." Thunder White, Xia Ni also has a sister Beni, I handed her over to you. Find out what they're plotting and who else is an accomplice! Traitors should be burned at the stake, it's never been true! What are you still doing here, will you pay if she runs away?"

Thunder White clenched his fists. She had a feeling that something was wrong before, but now she was overwhelmed by anger and humiliation. Seeing that a minister knelt down to Feige and swore allegiance again, she was so angry that she stomped on the ground and went out.

Feige only raised his hand at this time, rubbing the tears from before him as if he were squeezing his eyes.

He still got to this point and had to be alone for a long time.
