It is definitely impossible for Changkong to introduce Baili Red Candle to see Ma Feifei, after all, the relationship between the two is husband and wife, and he has to avoid suspicion, otherwise he will not let Zhang Yunji talk to Ma Feifei about this matter before.

"Madam, aren't you making things difficult for your husband!" Changkong said with a bitter face, he was a lot older, how could he be embarrassed to go to Ma Feifei and go through the back door?

Baili Red Candle didn't answer, and glanced at his daughter Baili Chuxue, now Baili Chuxue is already pregnant with Liujia, the belly scale is formed, and it won't be long before she gives birth.

"Good daughter, look at your father, a negative man, who ruthlessly abandoned our mother and let us depend on each other for our lives, and then I had to say that he didn't know, and promised to take care of us for a lifetime, and responded to all requests, and now my mother just asked him to go to the owner of the magical bookstore and say a few words, so he excused himself in every possible way, and refused in every way, in this case, why did he promise to break the promise in the first place!"

Baili Red Candle's eyes turned red as he spoke, which made Zhang Yunji and Changkong on the side cry and laugh, Zhang Yunji was okay, after all, he was just a son-in-law, but Changkong couldn't do it, these words poked him in the heart and slapped him in the face, even if he was thick-skinned, he couldn't resist it.

"Madam, we have to be reasonable, you are taking it out of context!" Changkong walked behind the Baili red candle and prepared to pinch her shoulder to show flattery.

Baili Hongzhu's eyes widened, and Changkong's hand immediately stopped in mid-air, and finally withdrew tremblingly.

"Do you think I want to do this? Now that the female has been on the throne for less than half a year, she has summoned the 'Twelve Kings Meeting' three times in a row, and the meaning of the words is to take back the twelve 'Spirit Crystal Vein Mines' that were assigned to us by the Chu Overlord back then, and to stifle the development of our 'Twelve Kings', and seeing that the current attitude of the Empress is iron-hearted, these twelve Spirit Crystal Vein Mines will be returned to the country sooner or later, and at that time, it will inevitably have a great impact on our Twelve Kings family. ”

"This is not just a matter of a spirit crystal vein mine, but also a signal from the empress to us, if we don't want to resist, the next step will be the empress's ruin. Speaking of this, Baili Red Candle sighed lightly, and his eyes were full of unwillingness.

Several people around were silent when they heard this, this matter had already spread in the upper echelons of the entire Chu State, and they naturally knew it clearly with their identity.

In fact, not only the twelve kings of Great Chu, but also many families and kings who were rewarded with the Spirit Crystal Vein Mine by the Overlord of Chu were all summoned by the empress, and it is said that this incident caused a lot of shock in the imperial capital, but the empress has gradually controlled the entire Chu State since she ascended the throne for half a year, so that even if everyone has an idea in their hearts, they dare not directly compete with the empress.

Since they don't dare, then the outcome of this matter is basically decided, just wait for the empress to give an order and send someone to take over the spirit crystal vein mine that they have been digging for thousands of years.

Of course, although the Spirit Crystal Vein Mine is a fixed asset, it may not have a particularly big impact on these people, each family has been in business for thousands of years, and has already had a source of income for their own family, and even many families are not just a Spirit Crystal Vein Mine, losing one is nothing at all.

The empress also grasped this point, and used her power and coercion to finally complete this recovery, and although these families were uncomfortable one by one, fortunately, they were all within the scope of bearing, so in the end, it could go so smoothly.

But is the empress just going to collect a few spirit crystal vein mines with such a big move? Obviously not, many people understand that the empress is going to start attacking these 'feudal kings' and 'vassal kings'.

In fact, this is the trend of the times, so why should you be obsessed. Changkong sat down suddenly, Zhang Yunji hurriedly stepped forward and poured a cup of tea for him, Changkong drank it all in one gulp, and persuaded him.

"What is the general trend? The state of Chu has been established for more than 5,000 years, and the 'twelve kings' have stood on this continent since the overlord of Chu, and they have endured for 5,000 years, this is the general trend!" Baili Red Candle said sharply, obviously she was not convinced by what Changkong said.

Changkong shook his head, glanced at the sky, snowflakes were flying, the world was white, and he let out a long sigh and said: "It's not five thousand years ago, this piece of heaven is going to change after all." ”

"Does my father mean that the continent will eventually be unified?"

Baili Red Candle also frowned and stared at Changkong, with a puzzled expression, only Zhang Yunji seemed to understand something, standing next to him and not speaking.

Hearing this, Changkong raised his head slightly, and said with emotion: "Yes, in recent years, the Canglong Continent has been surging, Qin Shi Huang's ambition to dominate the world is well known, King Qi Wen is gentle, King Zhao Kang is working hard, secretly developing, and it is also the meaning of competing with Qin Shi Huang, although Yan is cowardly, but his younger brother Yan Xun is also a city in his heart, and he is not willing to lag behind, it can be said that the kings of Qin, Zhao and Yan are quite ambitious, and it just so happens that they collide in an era, so that the situation of the five kingdoms will definitely be broken." ”

"Not to mention ......" Speaking of this, Changkong turned his head and glanced in the direction of the imperial capital, and said meaningfully: "Our new emperor is also a strange woman, and her ambition may not be smaller than that of Qin Shi Huang. ”

"Have you ever heard of a phrase called 'Honoring the King'?" Suddenly, Changkong asked them.

Baili Chuxue and Zhang Yunji were at a loss, not knowing the meaning of Changkong's words.

"I know that it is from the "Spring and Autumn Ram Biography" in the Four Books and Five Classics, which is a sentence said by Guan Zhong in the Spring and Autumn Period. Liuying, who was standing on the side, replied.

Hearing this, Changkong glanced at Liuying appreciatively, and said, "Yes! It seems that there is no shortage of books." ”

"Hee-hee~~!" Liuying was praised by the master, looking very happy, and her smiling eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

"What does this mean?" Baili Red Candle looked confused, she also thought she was well-read, but she had never heard of this sentence.

Changkong did not directly answer the sentence of Baili Red Candle, but said to himself: "This "Spring and Autumn" is one of the old man's favorite books to read when he has nothing to do, and he was quite puzzled by this sentence when he first visited "Spring and Autumn", so he also deliberately asked the shopkeeper and his old man to discuss, and finally benefited a lot from the old man of the shopkeeper, and also because of a deeper understanding of this sentence. ”

"Smack~!"

Baili Red Candle slapped the table, the tea almost splashed out, Liu Ye's eyebrows were raised, he stared at the sky, and said in a deep voice: "Talking about people." ”

"The new emperor is preparing to stabilize the interior of Chu and prepare for her to conquer the world!"
