The night was deep, and the huge Jade Que Palace was immersed in the tranquility of the night. The palace attic under the reflection of the palace lights is even more dazzling and radiant at night.

In the Fragrance Garden, fireflies lit up from behind the dense grass and danced in the air with the night breeze.

The colorful light emitted from the main building is reflected on the grass and trees rockery in the garden, and falls on the spring water that slowly falls from the rockery, with a soft but not dazzling glow.

Xiao Shizhu in the main building was still frowning, and a blank look appeared in his eyes again, lingering in his eyes for a long time.

The night breeze outside the building blew the colored trees planted around the main building with a texture like Ayako, casting a chaotic shadow on the carved doors and windows of the main building.

Xiao Shizhu's heart is also so chaotic.

"It's not that I'm afraid. Xiao Shizhu, who was long in his body, raised his eyes to look at the beams above his head that rose straight up from the roof, stared at the exquisite patterns carved on the beams, and said thoughtfully: "It's just that I don't know how to get along with such a female ghost who has no emotional foundation in the future." Fox Ji and I both know that this marriage is just for the benefit of each other, but I am afraid that if we look up and see each other in the future, it will always be embarrassing. ”。

"I don't know what advice to give you on this matter. The ghost mother straightened up, sat on Xiao Shizhu's lap, stared at the blankness on her husband's face and the tightly knit brow, and groaned.

After a little silence, the ghost mother said lightly: "But you can also let go of these prejudices and get along with her, maybe you won't be so confused slowly." ”。

The ghost mother is not stingy, and she is not ambiguous in terms of right and wrong. She knew very well that although this marriage was driven by interests, she would not be stingy enough to try her best to hinder Xiao Shizhu and Fox Ji Tu Yaoqing from promoting their relationship.

If she did this, so that her husband would not be so embarrassed, she was willing.

What's more, her husband is not an ordinary human soul, but the Nine Shadows King of the Ten Continents and Six Seas of the Mighty Yin Cao Underworld, and there are naturally three concubines and six concubines around him, which is a fact that cannot be changed. With its blind stinginess, it puts an end to a fox Ji, and there will be Ma Ji Yang Ji or Pig and Dog Ji in the future;

Xiao Shizhu's tightly knit brows still did not open, and after another long sigh, he said slowly with some concern: "I'm still worried about it, if she has my heir in the future and fights with us Poria Cocos, it will be even more troublesome." ”。

"You don't have to worry about this, not to mention that you are born with mysterious power, and your soul lives with heaven and earth, so you don't need to think about the prince too early. Let's just say that your heir to the throne must be inhabited by capable people, and my family's Poria cocos is not mediocre. What if she can have an heir in the future? Saying this, the ghost mother's face was full of confidence, and her eyes flashed with pride and pride.

Before the ghost mother mentioned this, Xiao Shizhu's eyes suddenly lit up, and the blankness on his face disappeared instantly. Immediately sat up with his waist straight, his eyes flashed with pride and pride, and he excitedly shouted to the ghost mother: "That's, my Poria is very good." Yesterday, when I was in the city of twilight, I deliberately suddenly tested her knowledge of civil and martial arts, and Poria was all refined, and I was very surprised and relieved to make great progress. ”。

After that, the pride and pride in Xiao Shizhu's eyes did not decrease but increased. After his eyes also rolled, he spoke again, and then shouted with great interest: "I can break the routine in the underworld that has always been male and female inferior, and let the female ghosts take the entrance examination and study to become officials and ghosts, then I can make Poria Cocos my legal heir, and I will establish Poria Cocos as my Hades Prince!"

As soon as these words came out, the ghost mother's eyes widened in shock, stared at her husband in a daze, and blurted out an exclamation.

The strange birds on the surrounding bird's nest woke up one after another, opened their eyes and looked at them curiously.

"I will give the order now, and I will announce this matter in front of the civil and military officials tomorrow. After Xiao Shizhu helped the ghost mother to get up from his lap, he also got up from the recliner, didn't bother to put on his shoes, just stepped barefoot on the cold jade floor tiles, and strode straight towards the middle of the building.

This matter cannot be delayed any longer, it must be completed as soon as possible, although Xiao Fuling is still young, she is already qualified to be his Hades Prince. And Xiao Shizhu knew that Qingqiu Kingdom's ultimate intention to sacrifice Tu Qiongyao was nothing more than to use the ghost belly of this female ghost to give him Xiao Shizhu several ghost fetuses, and after giving birth to a boy and half a girl, he asked Xiao Shizhu to make him and Tu Qiongyao's child the legal heir of the Nine Shadows Kingdom.

Before he married Fox Ji, he took advantage of the fact that the power of Qingqiu Country had not yet been able to take root in the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and handed over the crown prince position to Poria Cocos, which put an end to the whimsical daydreams of Qingqiu Kingdom.

Before the ghost mother could react from her shock, Xiao Shizhu, who had already stood behind the case, picked up the pen, unfolded a silk scroll, and wrote the three big characters "Lichu Order" on it.

He just wants to set this precedent, he has realized the world without slaves in the underworld, and he has changed the fact that the underworld does not give female ghosts to study, and now he wants to set up a female prince and create the first precedent in the underworld.

The ghost mother, who had already come to her senses, hurried over, and grabbed Xiao Shizhu's wrist, so that Xiao Shizhu could no longer put pen to paper, and slowly shook her head and gently persuaded her husband: "This matter can't be rushed, you calm down." ”。

Xiao Shizhu was stunned suddenly, and looked at his wife with incredible eyes, a little puzzled for a while, I don't know why the ghost mother wanted to stop him?

"The inferiority of men and women is deeply ingrained in the minds of most ghosts in the underworld, and the fact that female ghosts can study is a benefit to the public, and their old ghosts who think old do not dare to offend the anger of the public, and they can't oppose it. But if you want Poria to inherit your mantle, it's different, this is related to the foundation of the Nine Shadows Country, and only Poria Cocos benefits a ghost, many old guys will not agree; The ghost mother looked at Xiao Shizhu, and her eyes were facing each other and she hurriedly admonished.

Xiao Shizhu's eyes narrowed slightly, and the incredible color that had appeared before gradually faded, and he slowly calmed down.

If you think about it carefully, what the ghost mother said is not unreasonable. Whether he wants to set up an heir or a daughter, it will make some of his pedantic ghost officials immediately blow up, and once Xiao Poria becomes his legitimate heir to Xiao Shizhu, it will declare the complete end of the concept of thousands of men and women in the underworld. This is about to attract the anger of a large number of male ghosts, and it is not necessary that they will even immediately rebel under the banner of stereotype.

The Nine Shadows Kingdom is expanding its territory, and it is a critical juncture to open the border and set up counties, and the country is in urgent need of stability. You can't make a fuss about it at this juncture.

But Xiao Shizhu was unwilling, and for a while impatience appeared between the facial features on his face, and the brush in his hand was held tightly, and he did not let go.

A drop of ink gathered on the tip of the pen paused on the tip of the pen and then fell, dripping on the scroll and slowly fainting.

"You might as well do this, let your daughter participate in the court meeting with us first, listen and watch more, and at the same time show her ability to the ministers. The ghost mother paused when she said this, let go of her husband's wrist: "This thing really can't be rushed, don't be childish." ”。

Xiao Shizhu impulsively faded away, and after thinking seriously for a while, he also felt that what the ghost mother said would come again, so he had to reluctantly put down the brush in his hand.

"Listen to you. Xiao Shizhu no longer insisted, and whispered to the ghost mother......

To the north of Aoki County, Ryukoma Pass, immersed in the moonlight, is quiet. The winter moon stood on the top of the mountain in the face of the whistling mountain wind, and looked around with the light of the blue moon, except for the mess, only to see a large area of ruins.

The ruins and rubble of the rubble lay in the moonlight, revealing sadness.

During the day, Dongyue had already made a circle in Guanzhong. Most of the fortifications that were so dilapidated that they were not formed were concentrated in the east and south, with the most serious in the east, and almost all the fortifications below the mountainside were in ruins and had to be rebuilt.

And half of the defenders of the pass have been killed, which is also a considerable loss. The top priority at the moment is to rebuild the fortifications here as soon as possible, and then recruit troops nearby, and then fill the holes in the attrition of the battle.

But then again, before she came here, Dongyue never expected that there would be such a big damage here.

Looking at the devastation in front of her, she frowned tightly and didn't open it again, and she somewhat understood why Du Ula was red-eyed that day, regardless of Xiao Shizhu's strict order to cross the border to kill and plunder.

The losses here were too great, almost as long as the losses on Shuoyue Island when the Xudu army attacked Shuoyue Island for the first time, and the reason for this was the sudden attack of the Lei Ze Kingdom. The second is the Lei Qilin cavalry mount of the Lei Ze Kingdom, which can spit out lightning and thunder like sharp arrows, which is as fierce as artillery, and the range is not bad.

Their existence makes the ghost soldiers of Lei Ze Country invincible even if they don't have guns in their hands.

It is a blessing in misfortune that the Nine Shadows Army stationed here can successfully repel the invading enemy army, and it also proves the strength of Du Ulla.

"Lady Fuyutsuki. Duula, who was ashamed, came over and stood beside her. When Dongyue heard this, her brows that had been locked for a moment were already unfolded.

Duula does not regret that she once disobeyed military orders, and she is willing to pay for it. She just couldn't let go of those soldiers who died in battle for a long time, thinking of their tragic situation before death, Du Ulla would blame herself, and a burst of worry followed.

"Duula, you've done a good job. Dongyue turned around, stretched out her hand and patted the female ghost on the other side, who was much younger than her, and couldn't help but admire: "You have minimized the loss and grabbed a lot of supplies." ”。

As soon as these words came out, the look of self-blame and guilt on Du Ulla's face faded a little, and the burden in his heart also weakened a little.

"I'll help Lady Fuyutsuki rebuild this place. After a moment of silence, Duula whispered.

Under the moonlight, the mountain wind was as fierce as a knife, blowing the hunting sound of the winter moon's robe, and she smiled faintly: "I have received it, but the lord has an order, and I am responsible for the reconstruction project here, and you rush back to Yuque City immediately, and the lord wants to see you." ”。

Du Ulla's heart couldn't help but chuckle, from what she heard, she was afraid that she would go back to confess, but Du Ulla still did not regret disobeying the military order.

"Stand down. Seeing that she was speechless for a while, with a slightly complicated expression on her face, Dongyue waved her hand, signaled her entourage to retreat, and took Du Ulla to a secluded corner.

Duula didn't know why, but he followed.

"You are indeed a capable young general, and it is a last resort to fight across the border against orders, so you don't have to worry too much about the crime. When Du Ulla followed, Dongyue lowered her voice and whispered to her, "I will play the lord immediately for what I see and hear here." The lord is not an unreasonable human soul, so you can return to the capital with peace of mind. ”。
