Jielan walked to the right side of the main hall, pulled Ning Lu to her side, and then turned to look at Qing Zhan. Qing Zhan didn't speak from beginning to end, because today was the time for Jielan to show her talents to the ministers, and it was the time for her to control the entire government and make the ministers convince her, at this time, he just wanted to listen to a bystander, and he didn't want to show the limelight, he just wanted Jielan to be accepted by these ministers earlier, so that there would be hope for the Blood Ying Kingdom.

Qing Zhan smiled at Jielan, he nodded, and motioned for Jielan to say whatever she wanted. With the support and encouragement of Qing Zhan, Jielan's somewhat nervous and timid heart was also a lot calmer, and she also smiled back with trust, then turned back to face the ministers, and said: "Although Heimu County has not officially launched a rebellion now, but after experiencing the incident of King Beron, presumably Heimu County will definitely take action, if he really wants to rebel, then the first thing he will attack is the adjacent Chiyan City, the reason why this palace thinks so is because Kong Jing, who was once a rebel general of Chiyan Kingdom, has taken refuge in Heimu County, And what Kong Jing wants to do most in this life is to return to Chiyan City, so he will definitely take soldiers and skeleton demons to attack Chiyan City, if Chiyan City is lost, it will be Qing Zhou City, Lanqi County, and finally it will be infected step by step, so it is the most important thing to defend Chiyan City, but Chiyan City has just gone through civil strife, and it may be difficult for the city to compete with Heimu County in terms of military strength and financial resources, not to mention that Heimu County uses evil magic, this skeleton demon palace and Shaojun have personally fought each other, Even the strength of the main palace and the young monarch is still difficult to deal with these demons, let alone the soldiers of Heimu County, so Chiyan City can be said to be in danger, and the ministers have any good advice for the current urgency? ”

When the ministers heard Jielan's words, they all hesitated and panicked, they didn't know what the situation of Heimu County was, and they hadn't personally experienced the danger of Heimu County, so they naturally didn't know much about what Jielan said, but General Qiu Zhen stood up and said: "Back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, although the last general has not personally comprehended the matter of summoning the skeleton demon in Heimu County, but he also knows a lot about it, this evil demon is forged on the skeleton by a summoner who knows how to use the soul of the dead, and then watered it with the blood of the living. Resurrect the white bone skeleton, because the dead souls used are all souls with a strong resentment, and the blood of the living also carries the resentment of human beings on the verge of death, so the skeleton demon is evil, and the demon power cannot be underestimated, the last general has been investigating the matter of the skeleton demon, and also wanted to play this matter to the royal city, but because he knew very little, he did not expect that the princess was so familiar with the matter of the skeleton demon, and the last general was willing to lead the troops to Chiyan City to help the Chiyan city lord fight against the evil demons. ”

Jielan was surprised, the matter of the skeleton demon, even Shaojun Qingzhan only learned about the existence of this demon because he met the skeleton demon in Chiyan City, and General Qiu Zhen has always been just a small leader, how did he know about the existence of the demon, Jielan couldn't help asking: "How did General Qiu Zhen know about the skeleton demon?" ”

Qiu Zhen saw the princess asking, but he was a little hesitant, as if he didn't want to tell the truth, he thought for a while, and only said: "This matter is the last general sent someone to inquire, so he will know something, but the last general is incompetent, but he can't eradicate the evil demons." ”

Jielan shook her head and said: "General Qiu has the heart to eliminate the evil demons, but he is also loyal, but General Qiu must stay in the royal city, if you leave, I am afraid that no one will care about the safety of the royal city, not to mention that the evil demon is a demon road, and although General Qiu can spell spiritual power, but to deal with these evil demons can not rely on flesh and blood soldiers, can only send people with strong spiritual power to help Chiyan City." ”

As soon as the ministers heard Jielan's words, they all whispered to each other, and then Lord Zaifu asked, "I wonder if Her Royal Highness the Princess has already been selected?" ”

Jielan saw that Lord Zaifu asked the point, which was exactly what she wanted, what she wanted was the ministers' questions, she pulled Ning Lu over, and said: "This time to calm the civil strife, in addition to the great help of the city lord of Jin Zhao City, there is also Ning Lu as the holy daughter of the Shenlu clan, if she didn't bring the people of the Shenlu clan to help, this palace and Shaojun are probably already in different places, so this palace plans to send Ning Lu to Chiyan City, first, Ning Lu is very familiar with Chiyan City, and second, she is the purest race in this world, as long as they are willing to help Chiyan City, Presumably, even if the demons attacked, they would not let Chiyan City suffer too much loss. ”

After hearing this, all the ministers had a sad face, as if they did not agree with Jielan's proposal, and Lord Zaifu also felt that this matter was quite inappropriate, so he hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Please think twice, Your Royal Highness the Princess, the Holy Maiden of Ninglu has indeed contributed to the civil strife in the royal city, and the ministers are also very grateful, but the Holy Maiden of Ninglu is the fiancée of Shaojun according to the law, and she is not allowed to leave Lingxiao Mountain until she marries Shaojun, not to mention going to Chiyan City, and the Holy Maiden of Ninglu should have been punished by law for the crime of running away, However, because Shaojun mentioned that he had meritorious service during the civil strife in Chiyan City, he did not investigate his guilt with his merits, but he could not let her return to Chiyan City. ”

In fact, Jielan knew what these ministers were worried about, presumably the love between Ning Lu and Xuan Ming had been known by these ministers, and these ministers naturally did not want Ning Lu to return here, so they spoke out against it, but since Jielan had already made this plan, she had no intention of giving in to the courtiers, she only said: "Lord Zaifu is reasonable, but you only took into account the young monarch, but did not take into account the overall situation of the world, now is not the time to consider someone's marriage, but to think carefully about the stability of the world, I believe that Shaojun will not mind letting the Holy Maiden of Ninglu go to Chiyan City, not to mention, if Lord Zaifu repeatedly acts in accordance with the law, it will only put the royal city in danger in the end, if one day the royal city falls, this palace wants to ask Lord Zaifu, can the decree save the royal city, and can it pacify Heimu County? ”

was asked by Princess Jielan like this, but Lord Zaifu couldn't speak, "This... This... The decree says so, and it must not be violated, Your Highness. ”

Jielan smiled indifferently, but said lightly: "Lord Zaifu, do you know why the decree is solved? ”

Zaifu was puzzled, and he didn't know why the princess asked like this, so he only said: "It is a move to restrain the behavior of people in the world, and to carry out the laws of the civilized capital, this order is to improve the system of the country, control people's desires, cut off people's evil thoughts, and act with admonitions, and make a covenant, so that the country can be orderly and peaceful." ”

Jielan smiled indifferently again and asked, "Then according to Lord Zaifu, is it orderly and too peaceful?" ”

When Lord Zaisuke heard Jielan refute like this, he couldn't answer. Jielan saw that he couldn't answer, so she said to herself: "The moon rises in the middle of the world, spring goes to autumn, and there are all changes, because only in this way can yin and yang be reconciled, nature will be orderly, and the law is still changing, and it will be adjusted according to the feelings of the country. But you don't dare to put forward it, as a counselor, you have the right to put forward your own opinions, and why hide the most genuine desires in your hearts, O ministers, in fact, the desire in your heart is what you really think, and if the law stifles your desire, it means that there is something wrong with the law, why don't you dare to question the law, we are alive, but the law is dead, why should we be controlled by dead things, controlled by some unreasonable things, The Blood Ying Country that this palace wants to see is not such a country, but I want to see your true heart, so that it is the progress of a country, isn't it? ”

From ancient times to the present, no princess or king has ever dared to question the law, and no one has spoken to the courtiers like this, and these courtiers do not know whether to admire the beautiful and brave princess in front of them, or to denounce her for her disrespect to the law.

Lord Hongden and Lord Bai Bing didn't expect that the princess would say such a thing, and Bai Shangshu, who was the person in charge of the decree, was undoubtedly a reprimand for him, he stood up and said in a deep voice: "Back to Her Royal Highness the princess, the decree was made during the period of the ancestors who founded the Blood Ying Kingdom, and the ancestors gathered the wisdom of their lives to formulate laws for our descendants to abide by, how dare we deny the views of the ancestors, not to mention that these decrees were formulated by the ancestors after careful consideration, how can there be mistakes, Her Royal Highness the Princess said that I want to hear the desires of our hearts, but the desire of everyone's heart is not a kind of greed, as soon as people have greed, they will have evil loves, and the decrees of the ancestors are to curb these evil loves, if the laws and regulations are to satisfy the desires of everyone's hearts, then how can there be order in this world. ”

was fiercely refuted by Bai Shangshu, Jielan's face suddenly sank, and she was a little angry at Bai Shangshu's stubbornness, but she also understood that wanting to change the decree was a long-term thing, not something that could make these ministers nod and agree overnight, but she had to do it to let Ning Lu go to Chiyan City. However, Ning Lu finally understood why Jielan said that she would definitely fulfill her wish, it turned out that she wanted to send herself to Chiyan City, so that she and Xuan Ming could reunite, but in this way, she would definitely oppose the ministers, Ning Lu didn't want Jielan to let her be distrusted by the ministers for her meager wishes, so she pulled her shirt and said softly: "The princess doesn't have to worry about me, don't mention this matter again." ”

Jielan heard Ning Lu's request, looked back at her with her head down, and saw that her face was shrouded in sadness, obviously expecting but feeling helpless and disappointed, but the reason why Jielan made this decision was not to unilaterally want Ning Lu and Xuan Ming to reunite, she really felt that Ning Lu going to Chiyan City would be a good way to deal with Heimu County, and it was also to test the minister's opinion on the law.
