[200] Epilogue
As soon as the words fell, Ying Ying's heart chuckled, and her cheeks suddenly flushed; she didn't know what was wrong with her? When she spat out the words "You have to live," she obviously felt that she was worried about Xiao Shizhu's safety, so her tone was full of concern.
Perhaps it was because of Xiao Shizhu's bearing and open-mindedness, as well as his policy of not disturbing the people and not killing innocents indiscriminately, that Ying Ying had a good impression of him over time, or that the other party was the prophesied son of God, who gave her a glimmer of light and hope for a long time under the shadow of the reign of terror of Emperor Xudu.
But for some reason, the more Ying Ying thought about it, the more confused she became, and she became a little nervous.
The two ghosts have their own agendas.
"I thought how powerful Xuanli was to give me the aura of the protagonist?" and Xiao Shizhu, who was also silent, couldn't help but complain in his heart: "Now it seems that except for being able to fight a little, everything else is useless, and not only that, I don't know when, it will be possible to be eaten by it, what a cheat." There is also the title of the son of the god, in this underworld full of the minions of the Emperor Xudu, this title is simply invisible! Fortunately, I had the foresight to pour this trick on Mo Zhai's head in advance, otherwise it would have been a house leak that would have rained overnight. ”。
Absent-mindedly, he naturally didn't notice the changes in Yingying's expression and mood.
He looked up at the ceiling above his head, and looked at the lifelike flying sky, music, spirit grass and fairy flowers on the ceiling in a daze, and then slowly lowered his head.
When his eyes fell on the sculpture on the stone platform in the room, he didn't look away, and continued to complain secretly in his heart: "Father, mother, what did you think at the beginning? What is not easy to implant, I insist on implanting such a dangerous thing into my body." Are you the fairy version of the Daddy and Kiss series?".
After a while, Xiao Shizhu couldn't help but sigh softly.
But when I think about it, my parents are also for his good. On the other hand, his parents gave him Xuanli to prevent him from being assassinated by Emperor Xudu, and the double-edged sword of Xuanli would backfire him, but it was also his lifeline.
Thinking about this, Xiao Shizhu's kind smile of his parents appeared in his mind again, and his heart was overflowing with happiness, which suddenly diluted the previous complaints and incomprehension.
"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided. Xiao Shizhu thought about this, and a warm smile appeared on his face again, like the sun after the clouds and fog dispersed, warming people's hearts.
"What are you in a daze?" After he settled down, he found that Ying Ying was still with her head down and didn't know what she was thinking; driven by curiosity, Xiao Shizhu simply lowered her head, looked at the other party's slightly hanging head, and saw that his cheeks were crimson, and while the other party had not come back to his senses, he seemed to be smiling, and asked loudly and bluntly: "What are you blushing for?"
"Huh?" Ying Ying exclaimed in surprise and came to her senses, but when she looked up, she noticed that Xiao Shizhu's face was close at hand, and after the other party's breath came to her face, she was so frightened that she hurriedly waved her hand, and at the same time took a few steps back, and only stopped after retreating to the case, and said in a panic: "No, no, really not." I'm just thinking about how I have to think about restoring the five counties if I want to promise the national teacher. That's called an incoherent speech.
Xiao Shizhu pondered for a long time, and then asked thoughtfully: "Do you want to say that you don't like me, but you just want to promise me that if you are the national teacher of the Nine Shadows Country, you should help me, help the people of the Nine Shadows Country, and think about how to restore order and stability in the five counties, right?"
"Hmm. Ying Ying nodded again and again, like a chicken pecking rice. At the same time, as if relieved, he took a long breath. But the tension on his face still increased.
All this naturally did not escape the eyes of Xiao Shizhu, who was blind.
"Why?" Xiao Shizhu had the intention of relieving her nervousness, so he deliberately screamed, and then pretended to be slightly angry, and asked reluctantly: "Is it that I am not the type you like?" or do I have a poor and ugly straight man with cancer and a dick silk face?".
After a pause, he squeezed his eyebrows, and asked again and again with great interest: "Or are you, like Xiao Si, think that I am a murderous executioner?"
"No, no, no. Ying Ying, who was very flustered, waved her hand again and again, believing Xiao Shizhu's jokes to be true, her face was even more red, her face was even more panicked, her heart was beating like a drum, and she hurriedly explained: "We don't understand yet, and we don't have an emotional foundation, and it's the relationship between the monarch and the minister, so we can't talk about whether we like it or not." ”。
blurted out a blunt sentence, but inadvertently revealed her most innocent and pure side in front of Xiao Shizhu, exposing it all.
"Okay, look at that scares you. I'm kidding you. Xiao Shizhu looked at her and raised her head slightly, her slowly growing mouth was closed when she saw it, and the corners of her mouth were raised to reveal a shallow smile: "My human soul is like this, I like to joke with friends, and slowly you will get used to it." Let's get down to business and tell you what good governance strategies you just came up with. What I need most now is advice on this. ”。
"Well, okay. Ying Ying hurriedly avoided Xiao Shizhu, adjusted her breathing to calm her mood, and walked quickly to the bookshelf to rummage for a while, but she couldn't help but think in her heart: "Friends, aren't we a monarch and a minister?"
After a while, she took out a recital book from many books and handed it to Xiao Shizhu: "You take a look at this first." ”。
"Hmm. Xiao Shizhu put away his cynical laughter, slowly unfolded the playbook in his hand, looked at it carefully, frowned and said suspiciously: "This is the playbook given by Julong to Gonggong, a suggestion on vigorously developing water conservancy and hoarding more food in case of trouble." Judging by the date, it seems to be 50 years ago. ”。
"Yes, but maybe he'd rather spend a lot of money on building warships. Ying Ying bowed her head slightly, and said slowly: "The development of military science and technology is important, and you have also seen that this has led to the fact that in the two counties of Chutian and Fengdui, there are most uncultivated lands, especially in the mountains. The same is true for the other three counties. ”。
"Hmm. Xiao Shizhu also nodded and said, "You continue." ”。
"Now that the underworld is in turmoil, rebellions are everywhere, and the Nine Shadows Kingdom has to rise secretly if it wants to be strong. What is the attitude of Emperor Xudu, we are also the attitude, and now that he is sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, then we must do the same. After thinking for a while, Ying Ying said seriously: "Then the first task is to reserve grain." ”。
