"Su Yuan. ”

A tactful and crisp voice woke up Su Yuan, Su Yuan turned his head to look at Liufeng Yueling, only to see that her eyes were charming and charming, her face was ruddy like a budding flower, and she said softly: "Am I good-looking?"

"Ahh......h ”

The girl seemed to be pleased with this answer, and smiled happily, her eyes full of sunset and stars.

The little tail finally came out of the girl's arms, coming and going, baring his teeth at Su Yuan, laughing at his sinus state at this time.

Suddenly, a crisp crashing sound came, and Su Yuan saw a pair of small bells falling from Liufeng Yueling's waist, and fell off the cliff with a flick on the edge of the cliff.

Liufeng Yueling snorted softly, it was too late to reach out and grab it, the bells had disappeared into the sea of clouds, she looked anxious, and she could see that she cared about the pair of bells.

"Is that important to the bell?" asked Su Yuan cautiously.

Liufeng Yueling didn't speak, but her expression looked a little lost.

The bell was not a valuable item, and her mother hung it on her body before Liu Feng Yueling's memory, and she had always been used to wearing it, and then she slowly had feelings. The ordinary thing was suddenly lost, and the girl found that she was very reluctant.

Little Tail bowed her head and whimpered, blaming herself for accidentally stepping on the girl's bell.

"I'll go find it back. Su Yuan said with a smile.

"But the mountain is so high, I don't know where it falls. ”

"You'll find out from here. ”

Su Yuan jumped down in the direction where the bell fell.

Liufeng Yueling stood in place, she didn't expect Su Yuan to jump down so resolutely, so that she didn't have time to stop it, she just watched Su Yuan open her arms, as if she opened a pair of huge wings and swooped into the sea of clouds.

She smiled like a blooming flower.

The moment Su Yuan fell into the sea of clouds, he turned his head and saw the charming smiling face on the edge of the cliff, an indescribable throbbing rippled in his heart, and since then, that smiling face has been haunting his heart and can no longer be erased.

In the years of Su Yuan's lonely wandering, whenever he thinks of that charming and smiling face, he will always be heartbroken.

Late at night, in the Changming Hall of the Starry Sky Hall of the Imperial Capital, the lights are bright at the moment, and only a few guards can be seen in the palace of Nuoda, but no one will doubt the garrison strength here, because this is the palace where the Dragon Emperor approves the chapters, as the emperor of a country, I don't know how many dead soldiers and guards are hiding in the dark, and the Dragon Emperor himself is the most powerful person.

In the Changming Palace, the Dragon Emperor in a golden robe was quietly watching the last recital, he looked very carefully, as if he was afraid of missing a word, only to see that it was written: The alien army is raiding, the border guards are in a hurry, and they are asking for reinforcements.

After a long time, he opened the eyes of the golden dragon clan's iconic dark red pupils, his voice was deep and deep, and he asked Liufengdu who was standing aside: "Wu'er, do you know why the empire has been established for more than 7,000 years, and why the adjacent areas of the empire's territory have never been included in the territory, is it because the empire's national strength is not strong enough, or the empire's warriors are not brave enough?"

Liu Fengdu pondered for a moment, "The surrounding area of the empire has been entrenched by various different races for many years, and the large and small forces are mixed, and the leaders of some of them even have the strength of the Holy Realm, and they have even crowned themselves with various pseudo-king titles. In the past, the empire occasionally went on expeditions, and the alien races that were originally scattered would resist together, so the empire also returned many times in vain. But this is not because the Imperial army is not strong enough, but because the Empire often goes deep alone and is outnumbered, which leads to the fall short. However, as long as the empire can send several legions to attack at the same time, once the alien race has no numerical advantage, it will be easy to conquer and incorporate the frontier region into the empire's territory in one fell swoop. However, most of those areas are barren land, and the materials are scarce, which is really chicken ribs, and it is useless to take them, and if they lose the imperial army and national strength, it will inevitably outweigh the losses. ”

"You're only partially right, wouldn't it be a joke if my great country was helpless against the rabble, and any emperor would feel that his land was too much, even if it was a desolate and barren land, and human desires were endless. Emperor Li folded, "It's not difficult to defeat the border aliens, and the emperors of the past generations of emperors have known the reasons you analyzed, but why they have maintained this state until now, the fundamental reason is that the empire can't take it." ”

"Can't take it?"

Liu Fengdu was puzzled by Emperor Li's words, "If you can take it, why don't you take it?"

Emperor Li stood up from the wide pure gold chair, his figure was majestic and tall, his long hair was thrown away at will, and the short beard under his chin set off the majestic momentum, he slowly walked outside the main hall, looking at the boundless night sky with a gloomy expression, and said to Liu Fengdu, who was also following him: "When a beast is hungry, it has only one thought, that is, to catch prey to fill its stomach, otherwise it will die. And when it's full, there are countless thoughts, or desires. ”

Liu Fengdu pondered Emperor Li's words before and after, and slowly seemed to understand something.

"When the empire was first founded, only the white ape, the blue scorpion, the blue wolf, and the phoenix were meritorious because they followed the first emperor to open the country, and the four clans also divided the territory to govern one side of the border, and the patriarch was crowned as the king, which can be passed on forever. But the empire now has seven hereditary kings, that is, the Netherworld, the Shura Palace, and the Shadow Palace, the three rising forces, these three forces are just in the process of the successive crown princes to support the victor and be crowned kings, and what is even more incredible is that they also enjoy the glory of ruling a state and the title of the king can be inherited. Although I do not intend to offend the previous emperors, I have always believed that this kind of glorious sealing is indeed unfair. ”

"So soon after you succeeded to the throne, you changed the legal code against public opinion and abolished this form of kingship?"

"That's right, for thousands of years, they have justifiably cultivated a powerful direct legion with the title of king, and this is only a power on the surface, and even I don't fully understand how much power is hidden in the secret. However, the hereditary title and power that have been divided cannot be revoked at will, just like a piece of meat thrown to a wild beast, how can it be easily spit out. A cold light flashed in Emperor Li's eyes, "Moreover, these seven hereditary kings, whether they are directly subordinate to the army or their personal strength, are the top in the empire, and among the twenty-three states in the empire, they actually have no dominance over the seven states under their jurisdiction." ”

"Not to mention the legions of the four clans that have lasted for seven thousand years, together with the ghost face army of the Shura King of the Shura Palace, the Netherworld Black Armor Army of the Netherworld King, and the Tooth Killer of the Cold Moon King of the Shadow Palace, the strength of these seven forces can be said to be comparable to the most elite legions of the empire, so they are like beasts that have been fed, once they are strong, they will have more desires. Liu Fengdu cautiously expressed his opinion.

"Our people are still the strongest of the beasts. But as soon as one day we show signs of fatigue, or when they get stronger, they inevitably have other thoughts. Therefore, what we have to do is to keep ourselves strong at all times, which requires us to constantly self-spur, although the process will be cruel and hard, but it is also the most effective method, fortunately, the bloodline talent of our Golden Dragon Clan is the most powerful existence among the many bloodlines in the entire continent, which can be regarded as making up for the disadvantage of the scarcity of our bloodline. ”

Liu Fengdu stood silently aside, he grew up in the royal family, and naturally had a deep understanding of the cruelty, but after talking with Emperor Li, he deeply understood the helplessness revealed in this cruelty. Although the Imperial Clan is the supreme ruler of the Youyun Empire, it is actually a mutually restrained relationship with other forces, once the balance of this relationship is broken, there may be unpredictable consequences, although the white ape, blue wolf, blue scorpion and phoenix made an oath to defend the empire forever at the beginning of the founding of the country, but more than 7,000 years have passed, no one knows if they still remember the oath they made on the Heaven Sacrifice Tower.

"In addition to making ourselves strong, we also have to take another way, which is not to let the other beasts eat too much, and the border aliens can play this role. ”

Liu Fengdu suddenly realized, "It is to let them continue to consume with other races in order to weaken their strength, so this is the reason why they can't take the border land." ”

"Well, then you know what to do. ”

"The reply to the fold will be changed now. Liu Fengdu knew that Emperor Li was referring to the surprise attack of the alien race in the northeast.

"The Phoenix clan in Chuzhou has been recuperating for nearly fifty years, and it's been a long time. Emperor Li said expressionlessly when he turned around.

Liu Fengdu was slightly stunned when he heard this, his mother, now after the empire, is the daughter of the patriarch of the Phoenix clan. However, Liu Fengdu did not hesitate, he had gradually understood that as an emperor, he could not help himself, and he could not be bound by emotions, he returned to the Changming Palace, opened the fold, and the original reply on it was: The White Ape Clan of Selangor Prefecture led the army to fight on the same day.

In the end, he changed the twist to the main battle led by the Phoenix clan in Chuzhou, and he must drive the alien race thousands of miles away from the border.

Before leaving the Changming Palace, Emperor Li said to him: "Next month is the star orbit sun, and then you will also go with me to the Sacrificial Heaven Tower." ”

Liu Fengdu came out of the Changming Palace, his mood at the moment was like the dark corridor in front of him, and suddenly he thought, why did the alien race suddenly invade the border guards on a large scale for no reason, and whether there were imperial hands and feet in this, he finally sighed and didn't think about it further.

He walked to the end of the corridor and stopped at a corner, where a figure slowly emerged from the darkness.

Xu Lai stood aside, "Your Highness, Lao Yu and You Xu interrogated the two Supervisors in the dungeon, and they only said that the deputy martial artist Liu Fengce did not mention the others. ”

"Is it reliable?"

Xu Lai was silent for a long time, as if recalling the scene at that time, "The old man didn't see anything wrong. ”

"In that case, then so be it, Liu Fengce, you take my hand to control him first, and I will have a good conversation with him. Liu Fengdu continued to walk forward, and said slowly as he walked: "This matter cannot be known to others, and the glory of the empire should not be tarnished by these people. ”
