"I'm not you, do you think I'll do whatever they tell me for the sake of a 'virtuous' name, to appease and win over people's hearts, and to increase the loyalty of the people below me? I don't need others to tell me what to do, I have always ordered others to carry it out, and if I can't do it, I will either resign or die. ”

Shen Run was dumbfounded.

He had indeed forgotten that her methods of governance were different from his. Long Xiguo ruled the world with loyalty and filial piety, and the word "loyalty and filial piety" has been emphasized for a hundred years. If the king is not diligent in his administration, does not listen to the virtuous, and does not accept advice, he will be regarded as disloyal to the country, and if he does not spread out and prolong his children, he will be regarded as unfilial piety.

Loyalty and filial piety regulate many things that make the country stable, but at the same time they also bind a lot.

Now, this is no longer the Longxi Kingdom, this is the Phoenix Underworld Country, the Phoenix Lord of the Phoenix Underworld Country is governed by a bloodbath that is terrifying, a barbaric way of governance, the disadvantage is that the country will become barbaric with the ruler, and the benefits, that is the benefit to the ruler, the ruler does not have to be restricted by anyone.

He knew that she would not be held hostage by the courtiers who had been admonished, but he still wanted to ask:

"Even if they can't force you, what about you, what do you think?"

"Even if you ask me, I can't answer, I haven't thought about it."

Si Chen is very straightforward, so her bluntness is often more hurtful than lies.

She didn't think that this was a more powerless answer than she said, "I don't want to get married" or "I really want to find a man from Fengying to guarantee pure blood". Sometimes Shen Run wondered why she couldn't just say it ruthlessly, just tear the two of them apart. But when he thought so, she began to hang him with fruitless tenderness again. He's the one who doesn't know what to do next.

Shen Run suddenly wanted to say that he and her had come to this day, and it was indeed his big problem, but she didn't want to take it out. Now the two of them, he lost to her and became her subordinate, but since she wanted to keep him, was it occasionally, but only occasionally, she could worry a little about his mood.

But he didn't say it, and after he said it, she would definitely ask her a straight question, "Why should I worry about your feelings?"

He still had to stop beating himself up.

Fireworks are still being fired.

Shen Run and Si Chen stood side by side, not saying a word.

Finally, the eunuchs finished the prepared fireworks, and there were still many firecrackers left in the courtyard that were necessary for the New Year, and Cheng An, the chief eunuch of the Shen Run Jiade Palace, noticed that the atmosphere between his master and His Royal Highness the Feng Lord was a little delicate, thought for a moment, cautiously came over, and asked with a smile if the firecrackers were still released.

Shen Run was no longer very interested, he just wanted to say it, but he heard Si Chen speak first, and said lightly:

"Since it's all ready, let's put it away."

Cheng An happily responded, turned around and ordered the little eunuch to take down all the firecrackers and prepare to set them off.

The eunuchs below are not very old, and when they love to play, they heard that they can set off firecrackers, so they happily unfold the firecrackers and hang them, and take the firewood to light the fuse.

Shen Run glanced at Si Chen, she looked at the eunuchs hanging up the firecrackers with a cold attitude.

The firecrackers were lit and began to crackle, and the New Year was to pay attention to a fiery and festive celebration, and many firecrackers were lit together, and the sound was deafening, and a large amount of smoke was filled.

Si Chen didn't expect that the firecrackers would produce so much smoke, and she couldn't help but inhale the raging gray smoke, choking her and coughing.

Shen Run glanced at her.

She had turned and retreated under the porch.

Shen Run followed silently, she was really choked, coughing so badly that tears overflowed. He took out a neatly stacked handkerchief and handed it to her in silence.

Si Chen glanced at the handkerchief handed to her, but she didn't answer it, she took out a black silk handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped the corners of her eyes.

Shen Run's hand froze in mid-air, and he looked up at the sky.

Damn cleanliness!

From this point of view, when she played husband and wife with him before, it was really difficult for her to let her breathe the air under the same sky with him, Shen Run thought through gritted back molars.

Si Chen suddenly sat down on the steps in front of the palace.

Shen Run was slightly stunned and glanced at her, this time he didn't sit down with her, and he wouldn't always be cheap.

Si Chen sat on the steps, watching coldly as the eunuchs set off firecrackers.

Halfway through, Shen Run suddenly frowned, and he glanced back at Si Chen.

After all the firecrackers were set off, the smell of sulfur in front of the palace was difficult to dissipate for a long time, and the palace people and the eunuchs who set off the firecrackers were still happy on their faces, and they were a little unfinished.

Si Chen was still sitting on the ground covered with a long blanket.

Cheng An came over and reported that the firecrackers he took out had been set off, and the implication was that there were still in the warehouse.

Shen Run stood beside Si Chen, listened to Cheng An's words, glanced at Si Chen, and asked:

"Do you want to put it back?"

"Anything else?" Si Chen didn't look at Shen Run, and asked Cheng An in a cold voice.

Cheng An smiled and said, "Back to Your Highness, there are still many in the Curry, all of which are left over from previous years." ”

Si Chen nodded.

She didn't speak and just nodded, and Cheng An didn't know what she meant, so she looked at Shen Run with inquiring eyes.

"Go and take it all." Shen Run commanded.

Cheng An got the order and ordered someone to go to the warehouse to get the remaining firecrackers.

Shen Run glanced at Si Chen, who was sitting straight on the steps with a cold face, beckoned a palace maid to come, and whispered to her:

"Go and warm a bowl of milk for Your Highness."

After a pause, he added: "Take some more cakes that His Highness likes to eat." ”

The palace maid received the order and hurriedly went down to prepare.

Si Chen was slightly stunned, and looked up at Shen Run, she didn't like to drink milk and wouldn't eat sweet and greasy cakes.

Shen Run stood, bowed his head, and looked straight at her.

Si Chen sat on the steps and looked at him.

The two looked at each other in silence for a while, and she was the first to lose, she hung her head, let out a long sigh, and said in a depressed tone:

"Found out so quickly!"

When she raised her head and looked at him again, those originally cold and piercing eyes began to warm up, gentle as water and as bright as stars. She looked at him and smiled, revealing two rows of white teeth, which became soft and waxy.

Shen Run looked at her.

He just wanted to let out a long sigh, he was about to be tortured by her and went crazy, maybe she was normal, but he was going crazy.

Contrary to Si Chen, Chenguang likes to drink warm milk with sweet cakes, which will make her happy for most of the day.

She returned to her usual sitting position, no longer straight, but folded her hands on her knees, limply curled into a ball, wrapping her fox fur tighter, and she looked at him with a grin.

The eunuchs, who had been ordered to take out all the firecrackers from the storehouse, came back, set them up on the shelves again, hung them with bamboo poles, and came to ask if they could light them.

"Order!" Chenguang said briskly, startling Cheng An, thinking to himself why His Royal Highness the Phoenix Lord was suddenly so interested, could it be that his interest was finally aroused?
