After finishing speaking, the King of Equality slowly retreated five or six steps backwards before he stood still, but he kept his hands and bowed his head, not daring to look directly at the Emperor Xudu.
After the Emperor Xudu swept the contents of the note, he laughed without thinking.
He felt that the content of this note was simply nonsense. He took the initiative to surrender to him back then, and has been loyal for thousands of years. Emperor Xudu now doesn't believe that Bei Shui will do such a thing that will damage the Northern Yin Dynasty.
"Nonsense. Emperor Xudu flicked his sleeves, and when he lifted the red pen, the note had turned into powder.
"Haven't you had any information from other regions lately?" After a pause, Emperor Xudu asked as he picked up his pen.
King Equality, who shook his head slowly, said, "No." After that, he stopped talking.
"Well, in the future, if there is any information outside the Nine Shadows Kingdom, you can just look at it yourself. With this, Emperor Xudu's right hand waved in the direction of the gate, signaling that the King of Equality could retreat.
"No. The King of Equality answered and withdrew.
He just went out of the main hall, and the Emperor Xudu stopped writing again. He looked at the small pile of powder on the table, which was about to be blown away by the wind blowing from outside the open door, and pondered in deep thought.
Although he never doubted the loyalty of the harvest. However, in recent years, Xiao Shizhu's power has become bigger and bigger, and he has fought with the Northern Yin Dynasty regime in Xudu several times, and has made the Xudu army suffer losses many times, so that the loyalty of all the ghosts in the underworld has been shaken to some extent.
What's more, not only the human soul will change, but even the demon soul will be the same, how can there be an eternal minister, there is no eternal anti-thief, only the same interests;
Moreover, although the Emperor Xudu nests on Luo Yu Mountain every day, like a big girl to be married, and does not go out of the door, he also knows that in the underworld today, most of the human souls and a few demon souls feel that it is profitable to follow the Nine Shadows Kingdom.
First of all, it's not just the Nine Shadows Army that can fight, but how to exchange fire with the Xudu Army. It's even more because Xiao Shizhu has set up a system that bans the trading market of people, ghosts, ghosts, and slaves, and distributes them to the ghost people according to their work, and gets more for more work, and less for less work. Vigorously develop industry and commerce, agriculture, and also in Xuanyanzhou and Yunmengzhou, build official roads and spiritual canals together with various cities in various places.
At the same time as the water conservancy was built, the ghost people were encouraged to reclaim the wasteland, and the garrison also carried out reclamation. It also provided many facilities for commercial and industrial development, while reducing taxes.
According to the taxes of the Northern Yin Dynasty and other ghost kingdoms, those are all three to four percent. But in the Nine Secluded Country, you can not pay taxes when you are not green, and you can only pay taxes when you have a good harvest. At this moment, a lot of ghost people's hearts were pulled over.
In addition, the ghosts and people of the Nine Shadows Country are equal, whether it is a spirit, a demon soul or a human soul, the land is equal.
In this way, the Northern Yin Dynasty became less and less popular, and the Emperor Xudu became less and less popular. But even if Emperor Xudu knew that his governance methods were unpopular with the people, and Xiao Shizhu did a good job, but Emperor Xudu's stubbornness still made him disdain Xiao Shizhu's methods, and felt that it was naΓ―ve, that there was no deterrent thing, and there was nothing to learn.
However, he also had to admit that in such a situation, perhaps the ghost people and ghost officials under his rule, and even the ghost generals would have double-mindedness, and there was no shortage of ghosts who wanted to betray him and his Northern Yin Dynasty. Perhaps, the harvest has changed its mind.
"Tuber. Thinking of this, a trace of coolness suddenly flashed in the heart of Emperor Xudu, and he hurriedly called out the door. Then Tubo took a step towards the main hall, and walked to the middle of the main hall in three or five steps to stand still.
"The secret edict has investigated the head of the division (the department that has secretly visited the ghost officials in the Yin Cao Difu), and sent a team of ghost officials who have investigated the division and immediately rushed to Dongyizhou to investigate the harvest. Emperor Xudu paused, and then advised: "Don't spread this matter, just let it be known only to you and me, the head of the investigation department, and the investigating ghost officials." βγ
Tubo was suspicious for a while, not knowing what the Emperor Xudu was crazy again, but then he nodded and went out to summon him.
After the Emperor Xudu saw Tubo leave, he took up the pen and approved the manuscripts submitted from all over the country. But before he could write a few words, Emperor Xudu suddenly stopped writing, and a sharp cold light appeared in his narrowed eyes.
The battle reports in Dongyizhou are all good to chase. Either the siege of Manjiang City was completed, or the blockade of the west coast of Dongyizhou was completed.
Emperor Xudu always felt that this matter was a little strange; the combat effectiveness of the Nine Shadows Army could not be so weak, even if Emperor Xudu made a big move this time, Xiao Shizhu was still in Dongyizhou.
This hateful villain soul is worth a million male masters, and the Emperor Xudu has to admit this even if he doesn't admit it.
After putting down the red pen made of the tip of the pen made from the fetal hair of the human soul ghost, the Emperor Xudu raised his hand and patted it. Crisp applause rang out and echoed across the hall. Immediately afterwards, a ghost slave wearing a hood and a robe walked quickly into the main hall and stood opposite the Emperor Xudu, bowing his head and hanging his hands.
"Quickly descend the mountain, and summon the Wheel King into the palace. Emperor Xudu said quickly.
The palace slave replied, "No." Then he turned away.
Emperor Xudu waited for a long time before the figure of the Wheel King appeared outside the gate of the main hall. He had just stepped over the high gold-lacquered threshold and hurried forward, when the open palace door was pulled shut by the palace slaves.
A large area of darkness instantly rose in the main hall, and the dull footsteps on the feet of the Wheel King echoed in the main hall.
He strode three or five times and came to the bookcase of the Emperor Xudu, knelt down with a wat after a full robe, and gave a salute to the Emperor Xudu.
"The other spy who asked you to rebuild, how is the training at this time?" Emperor Xudu lowered his voice a little and asked bluntly.
After thinking for a while, the Wheel King, who was kneeling on the ground, returned: "The final training subjects, reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, tracking and anti-tracking training have been completed, and you can immediately devote yourself to Xuanyan Continent or Yunmeng Continent. βγ
"No, go to Dongyizhou. When Emperor Xudu heard this, he was a little satisfied with the reality, and at the same time, he bowed his head slightly. Then he squinted his eyes, shook his head slowly, and said thoughtfully: "Do a good job of the hidden mission." βγ
"Dongyizhou?" The Wheel King, who was slightly stunned, finally straightened his waist after a moment's pause, and raised his eyes to look at the Emperor Xudu, his eyes full of suspicion: "Isn't the imperial court's Eastern Expeditionary Army in Dongyizhou like a bamboo?" Xiao Shizhu obviously can't gain a firm foothold in it, why do you ...... all the spies."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was glared at by the angry eyes of Emperor Xudu, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly shut up.
"If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, this is called taking precautions. After instantly putting away his anger, Emperor Xudu sighed lightly, and said leisurely: "Once our army is defeated in Dongyizhou and the imperial court loses control of Dongyizhou, the spies who have lurked in advance can play a great role. β......
A dark cloud covered the sky over the dragon horse pass, and the strong wind swept through the sky and the earth and drizzled, causing it to flutter left and right. On the other side of the pass, in the Longshu Lake, the white mist formed by the yin qi rose and slowly spread out on the surface of the lake, blurring the surface of the lake that was constantly rippled by raindrops.
The dragon grass that grows on the shore of the lake, and the slender stems that stretch horizontally under the wind and rain, grow bright green oval and short-pointed grass leaves.
In the Longju Pass, the soldiers of the Nine Shadows Army guarding the pass were more vigilant in the wind and rain. Every sentry standing guard, and the guards on patrol, cheered up and did their duty in the fog that blurred their vision and vision.
On the edge of the school field on the top of the mountain, on the tall point general platform, after Zhu Hai and Ji Yan were transferred, Du Wula, the ghost general of the Nine Shadows Kingdom who took over this place, was sitting behind the handsome case, looking around with a light smile at the few spirits sitting left and right in front of him.
These spirits resemble fungus people, and although they have human shapes, their hair and beard are made up of turquoise plant aerial roots, which are intertwined on the top of their heads and under their jaws.
And the skin on their bodies is also the same as that of the fungus people, composed of layers of turquoise or withered yellow bark. They are the tree spirits of the underworld, who are inferior to the human souls who have been oppressed and treated unfairly.
Long before the Nine Shadows Kingdom set foot in Dongyi Continent, the Emperor Xudu only allowed them to operate here. But the human souls and demon souls in Dongyi Continent are not very friendly to them.
There is often no shortage of firewood at home, and they also have to go to the mountains to find tree spirits and cut them. It seems that the strange screams of the dryads when they are cut down by knives and axes can make them excited and happy.
Therefore, the dryads are not living as well as the souls of those who are bought and sold in the ghost slave market. Those souls will not eat badly and their lives will not be in danger in order to buy the price, at least until they are sold.
However, the dryads live in fear every day.
It wasn't until the arrival of the Nine Shadows Kingdom that they saw a glimmer of hope. They had already heard that the Nine Shadows Country paid attention to the equality of all ghosts, and finally had the courage to find the Nine Shadows Army.
Their representatives came to the Dragon Horse Pass, and it was the ghost general Ula who received them. After a few days, they did see the sincerity of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and the fact that all ghosts were indeed equal.
In the defenders of the pass, they saw that there were demon souls and human souls in the Nine Ghost Army, and there were some spirits among them. But human souls will not bully demon souls, demon souls will not suppress human souls, and they will not eat those spirits and fungus people. Instead of prejudice and hatred, everyone is united.
So, the representatives of the dryads began to negotiate with Ulla. Of course, Ula can call the shots, and it is also approved and agreed by Xiao Shizhu.
That's where today's meeting came about.
"General Ula, we Dryads will join the Nine Shadows Kingdom and fight for the Nine Shadows King and the ghosts in the country. After being silent for a long time, the older tree spirit at the head stroked the long beard composed of air roots under his chin, looked at Ula behind the handsome case above, and said unhurriedly: "Thirty thousand young and middle-aged tree spirits, accept the incorporation of the Nine Shadows National Army, and obey your command. The rest of the old, young, women and children became the citizens of the Nine Shadows Kingdom. We will never turn our backs on the Nine Shadows, but we hope that the Nine Shadows will give us fair and just treatment, and at the same time, we also hope that we will have a national policy of equality between you ghosts. Our people can no longer hide in the deep mountains and old forests, nor do they have to live the days of being cut down by other ghosts at any time. βγ
The night wind blows violently, pouring into the point of the general stage.
Hearing this, Ula only thought for a while, the smile on his face did not decrease or increase, and he bowed slightly, then looked around at the few tree spirits in front of him, and said slowly: "This is also the promise given to you by the Lord Guild; βγ
When she said this, the tree spirits were even more relieved, and a little smile bloomed on their faces.
"But you have to join our country, my lord means, although you are welcome, you have to show first. After a pause, Ulla waved her hand and motioned for her guards to come down.
After a few moments, she and the few tree spirits who were left on the stage were staring at her.
