"Long time no see, stableman.

… Haven't you changed much over the years..."

Erlie, leaning on the gap, looked at the two of them, more than ten years had passed, but these two people did not seem to have been eroded by time, and they were still the same as when Ellie left.

Then, naturally, it is the cultivation method they have explored, at least the maintenance of the face is good.

“… So are you, Sister Ellie.

It's been more than ten years, how much do you know about what you have seen and heard in the West? ”

"Not much, these things can be talked about later, as for the things and some things over there, I will also tell you some.

But how are you exploring? ”

The gap widened, and she fell to the ground, now wearing the modern suit she had always wore.

However, the stableman was not interested in this, but let out a long sigh and said slowly to the sentence that Elle had asked earlier.

"There's not much progress, except for looks.

Buduji and I have decided to send an envoy to the Sui State to find the books and materials of the Sui State under the cover of innovation. ”

"Really...

…… You can come in, huh. ”

The latter sentence was in Persian, and the stables and the knife had been stunned since ancient times, and they had never heard Ellie speak a similar language.

But what surprised them even more was that the wall beside them cracked deeply, without any warning or sound.

Inside, a woman with a wicked smile appeared, holding a chisel with the tip of which was facing the wall, and it seemed that she had only lightly touched the wall, and the wall cracked like a piece of soft tofu.

Huo Qing'e first walked in lightly and steadily, then bowed slightly, and with that smile that hid a lot of things, she said to the stunned Dao Zigu and the stable who had calmed down.

"Prince, Queen, is that just the two of you?"

The language is not very standard, but it is enough for them to understand, and the stable household carefully looked at Qing'e, and most of them had a score in their hearts.

"Sister Aili, is this the person you brought back from the Sui Kingdom?"

"Sort of... She's very interested in spreading Taoism, and you just need someone like that.

She should have some answer to your question, no matter how bad it is, that's the way. ”

Ellie tilted her head, letting her slightly studded hair run smoothly down her body.

“… I've thought about this over the years, but it's the last option.

So, let's talk briefly about the situation at the imperial court, stables. I've been away for a long time, and your life isn't very safe. ”

When the stable heard this, he also smiled, then got up and walked around to the side of the knife. The latter knew very well what the prince was going to do, so he quickly got up and moved some distance to the side so that the stableman could sit behind the table.

"Naturally, Sister Ellie.

It is not easy to seize power from the hands of those families, and it is not easy to enforce the crown and the constitution. The people I installed in the imperial court were almost completely suppressed by them, but thanks to the cooperation of the Su family, I was able to support it.

It's just that we haven't agreed on the views of the Sui envoys, and what we see from the court now is not optimistic.

Buduhee, that's right, she's still alive now, but her body can't last long, and her physical condition is not optimistic.

Recently, Buduhee's spirit and look have not been very good, and now she relies on heavy makeup to hide her appearance. ”

"We'll settle these things later, what do you say?"

"Naturally, there's plenty of time for that."

The stable man followed Erlie's meaning, and then stated the situation for more than ten years. Erli sat on the ground casually, and Huo Qing'e sat on the opposite side of the stable, smiling at each other.

"To make a long story short, I have wrested some power from the court controlled by everyone, but they are not happy about it, and sending Sui envoys is just an excuse.

However, they are only whining, and there is nothing else to pay attention to.

…… Oh, yes, Sister Ellie. ”

The stableman, who was just about to end the conversation, suddenly added another sentence, causing Ellie to turn her attention from Qing'e to hers again.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that the other party was a little hesitant, she asked suspiciously.

"You've probably heard of the name of the half-demon, right?"

Hearing this, Ellie's face sank.

How could you not know that even if you killed yourself once, you almost killed Zi, if you can't remember it, you will become like this in vain.

"That exorcist, I don't know what's going on lately, has been on a rampage against youkai, which is nothing in itself, but he's rallying Buddhists to join him in the crusade.

This is not very friendly to the power in my hands, especially when Buddhists infiltrate the state power, and I don't want the whole country to be bound by Buddhism.

If you meet them in the future, don't keep your hands.

Even if, in the future, you will see the descendants of the prince of the stables inside. ”

"You don't want to put your heirs in it, do you?"

Ellie, who frowned slightly, looked at the stable. It is said that it is a woman, and the sword has not happened since ancient times, but as the heir of the king, he must have an heir.

Over the years, she has passed on a lot of children, two boys and two girls, and claims to be the descendants of the royal family born from ancient times, and her status as the heir to the throne has been established.

"It's in name, but it might make you feel less hands-free."

"That's not the ...... If I did, I would have left as many corpses as I could, though I doubt your descendants would make it to that point. ”

The stable did not answer, and then turned to Huo Qing'e, who had been silent all along, and asked the other party in the language he had learned from Buduji.

"I don't know, what do you think about the country that will belong to me in the future?"

Qing'e shook her head and said slowly.

"It's a litmus test, it just needs someone to guide it."

"How?"

"See what the prince thinks."

As soon as these words came out, a slight light flashed in the eyes of the stableman, and he looked at each other playfully.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Does the prince want the country to be your exclusive good, or does he want the country to be everyone's exclusive good?"

"As a high-ranking person, what do you think?"

"People in high positions naturally have their own ways to rule the people.

The cultivation has arrived, even if the eight thousand immortals are ruled, they will not dare to act arbitrarily.

But if you can't cultivate, you only need to rule over all the people. ”

The most serious thing in this is not the stable, nor Qing'e, nor the knife since ancient times, but Erli.

Is this Huo Qing'e too idealistic, how to make people who don't have much culture and technical level become immortals? The cultivation of immortals in the whole country is not only exhausting the national strength, but also squeezing out the country's finances.

Unlike Buddhism, people who practice Taoism really don't know what they will do. If one is not properly manipulated, the court will probably be cleaner than the granary where rats don't come, and there will be many more scholars and chic gentlemen in those mountains, grasses and forests.

Therefore, in fact, the answer is obvious, relying on the power of Taoism, or the power of Huo Qing'e, to help the stable households achieve immortality.
