I saw that the multi-eyed monster straightened up slightly, leaned back on the back of the chair, looked down at Ao Tingxin, stretched out his hand and said, "Flat." ”

In just two words, the voice was hoarse, but full of power.

"Thank you Duomu Prime Minister!" Ao Tingxin slowly raised his head, got up, raised his head slightly and faced Duomu Monster with a smile.

At this moment, all the monsters are quietly looking at this woman.

Lifting the hem of her skirt, Nuan Nuan also got up and asked in a low voice, "The six demon kings are not all there?"

Ao Tingxin maintained a faint smile, and intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Qing Yu who was standing quietly on the other side. Seeing that Qing Yu's face was indifferent, he replied in a low voice. "The macaque king and the tamarin king are here. ”

"Why don't you come out?"

"Don't ask. Ao Tingxin replied with a smile.

......

At this moment, a hundred miles away from the demon capital, in a bamboo forest, in the courtyard guarded by a large number of demon soldiers, a man dressed in white, with long hair and a shawl, and a handsome face, was struggling to wield.

The long hair is flying, the heroic spirit that can't be hidden in the eyebrows, the dark red eyes, and the spiritual charm grows wherever the gaze passes.

Between a horizontal, a hook, a retraction and a release, the ink flows on the white paper as if it had come to life under his pen.

Between waves, the long sleeves stretch enchantingly in the wind.

......

"The things that the Dragon Palace trades with my demon country have large and small quantities and high and low prices, and those who are registered are seven hundred and sixty-three categories, and they are divided into nineteen thousand six hundred and fourteen kinds. There are thousands of things involved, which can be said to affect the whole body. ”

"Communicating with each other is a matter of mutual benefit and mutual benefit. And ......"

When he heard the word "ran", Ao Tingxin, who had been lowering his gaze from beginning to end, raised his eyes slightly and looked at the high-eyed monster.

After a slight pause, the grasshopper scribe standing beside the multi-eyed monster held the silk cloth in his hand, and then shouted loudly: "The cost of the moon crystal ore produced by my demon country alone is twelve silver claws, but the moon crystal ore sold by the Dragon Palace only needs nine silver claws. The price is so low that many mines in the south of our clan cannot make ends meet, and it is impossible to sustain. For the well-being of the people of our demon country, the current prime minister has many eyes, and on the order of the demon emperor, the tax of the original two silver claws has been increased to eleven silver claws. At the same time, the Dragon Palace was ordered to increase the price of the Moon Crystal Ore to 18 Silver Claws from now on. ”

As soon as these words came out, Ao Tingxin's face was indifferent, but many of the demon clan elders present were not calm.

......

The pen finally paused.

What was left on the scroll was the back of a woman.

Lifting the pen, the man in the bamboo forest raised his head slightly, staring at the other painting in front of him, thoughtful.

These two paintings are exactly the same.

"The fourth princess of the dragon is here. A gruff voice came from behind him.

As if he had been suddenly pulled out of his strength, the sharpness in his eyebrows slowly disappeared, and he was replaced by a trace of gentleness.

Taking a deep breath, the man replied softly, "Here, so what?"

I have to say, this is a good voice. The voice sounds magnetic, but there is a feeling of singing, word by word, all words are round, calm and measured.

"I think the old monster will take the opportunity to stumble us. I thought I'd go today to see how he was going to sing this scene, but it turned out that you were good, let me not go. ”

"Make a stumbling block, that's to be expected. Squinting slightly, he gently placed the pen on the pen mountain with his hand holding the orchid finger, slowly turned around, looked at the burly general standing behind him with a smile, and said softly: "However, even if he wants to make a stumbling block, I am afraid that he will have to pass the level of the elders of various clans first." ”

This is the macaque king, one of the six demon kings of the demon clan, and the yellow-haired general standing behind him is another demon king who was absent from the court meeting today - Yu Tamarin King.

......

"Your Majesty, if this matter is decided, it will be a great good thing for thousands of demons!"

"In this way, it can not only protect the livelihood of miners, but also increase fiscal revenue. It is indeed beneficial to the country and the people!"

Between this singing and harmony, many elders echoed it.

Ao Tingxin just listened quietly and didn't say a word.

The other elders had green faces.

"Raised to eighteen silver claws, then we have twelve silver claws to buy our own moon crystal ore?"

"Twelve silver claws? You think beautifully! The Dragon Palace sells eighteen, and I'm afraid that if it is self-produced, it will cost at least seventeen. ”

"How much self-produced moon crystal ore is, is it enough to consume the amount? Moon crystal ore is not the kind of mineral that we are rich in in the first place! Raise it to eighteen silver claws, that is, you really want to buy eighteen silver claws!"

"And what does that mean?"

Soon, some of the elders began to heckle.

"What are you kidding?

"I'm against it! This kind of resolution can't be passed!"

"Against!"

"I'm against it too!"

Elder Scorpion interjected and said, "Isn't it good to raise the price? Besides, if it rises, it's not for others, it's all in the tax." At the end of the day, it's still your own. ”

"Open your eyes and tell nonsense!" Elder Xiong stood up and scolded angrily: "The miners have to live, so we don't have to make weapons?"

Ao Tingxin glanced at the noisy elders on the table with his peripheral vision, intentionally or unintentionally.

"What's wrong with them?" asked Nuan Nuan in a whisper.

Ao Tingxin replied in a low voice: "Weapons are one of the most important outputs of the Demon Kingdom, and moon crystal ore is an important auxiliary material for making weapons. Once the price of Moon Crystal Ore rises, it means that the cost of all weapons produced will increase. There are many races and demon kingdoms that make a living by making weapons and armor. The price of the moon crystal mine is going to rise, and naturally many people are not happy. ”

"Important materials, shouldn't the price be lowered? How can anyone force others to sell things to themselves at a higher price?"

Ao Tingxin didn't answer, just stood quietly, listening, and the elders argued.

The multi-eyed monster gently stroked his long beard, and did not stop it, not saying a word.

"Silence! Silence——!" The grasshopper scribe was a little insufficient, and shouted loudly: "This is Your Majesty's order, not to ask whether you agree or not!"

"Your Majesty's order, God knows if it's Your Majesty's order or your Strange Order!" Elder Black Bear slammed the charcoal pen he was holding in his hand, turned his head and left.

Seeing this, several elders sitting beside him also stood up one by one. There were those who threw pens, and those who threw bamboo slips, and they all left the table and walked out of the Ten Thousand Demon Palace.

After a while, more than twenty demon clan elders had already left the table. There were more than 380 elders present.

However, not leaving the table does not mean that you have accepted the order.

Ao Tingxin lowered his eyes slightly, and did not say a word, as if the matter he was arguing about had nothing to do with him.

Elder Lu stood up and arched his hand: "Prime Minister Duomu, this matter is very high, since it is Your Majesty's intention, then the old man implores to meet Your Majesty and show his affection in person." If Your Majesty insists, then we will certainly follow Your Majesty's will. ”

As soon as these words came out, the entire hall suddenly fell silent, and after a while, the opposition elders who reacted echoed one after another.

"Yes, please allow me to meet Your Majesty in person. If Your Majesty insists, we will have nothing to say. ”

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

Elder Dragonfly, who was only two inches tall, fluttered his wings and flew up, shouting in a sharp voice, "Your Majesty is in retreat, and it is inconvenient to meet guests!"

"Inconvenient to see guests?" Hearing this, Elder Lu's face turned cold, and he said, "Since it is inconvenient for Your Majesty to see guests, how did the multi-eyed prime minister get His Majesty's will? Or is it that Your Majesty can only see the multi-eyed prime minister?"

"That's not right. Elder Eagle stood up and said with a smile: "What does Elder Yilu mean, is it that the multi-eyed prime minister is falsely transmitting the holy decree?"

As soon as these words came out, all the demons present were in an uproar.

The next moment, I saw that the Eagle Elder turned around and arched his hand at the multi-eyed monster and said, "In order to prevent this matter from spreading out and tarnishing the Prime Minister's name, I beg the Prime Minister to allow me to meet Your Majesty in person!"

With that, the eagle eyes full of killing aura looked towards the multi-eyed monster.

This is...... Singing double reeds.

In an instant, even the corners of the eyes of the multi-eyed monster twitched slightly.

Does this mean that he does not agree with these elders to meet the Demon Emperor Jun, that is, he has been convicted of falsely transmitting the holy decree?

At this moment, the atmosphere in the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons has become extremely strange, and even the first-time visiting Princess Nuan Nuan has seen the clues.

There are six tribes of demons, divided into beasts, feathers, insects, scales, wood, and spirits.

The so-called beast clan, to put it bluntly, is the monster transformed by the beast, bears, deer, tigers, cows, and sheep are among them;

The feather clan refers to the birds, and all those covered with feathers are in this category;

Zerg, as the name suggests, refers to insects. The big prime minister, the centipede, is one of them;

The scale people are covered with scales, snakes and lizards, all of which are among them;

The wood family refers to the transformation of plants and trees;

As for the last spirits, they are made of inanimate objects, such as stones, fire, water, and even bones.

Except for the two clans of wood spirits, which have a very small number, the demon clan is actually the four clans of beasts, feathers, insects, and scales.

All those who support the multi-eyed monsters are the two clans of worm scales, and all those who oppose them are the two clans of beast feathers.

This is the infighting of the demon kingdom head-on, and you really don't treat the Dragon Palace as an outsider......

......

"Moon Crystal Mine?" the Tamarin King waved his hand, a look of anger on his face.

The demon soldier who came to deliver the message obediently withdrew from the door.

"Has the price of Moon Crystal Ore risen?" asked the Macaque King, who was sitting upright and crossed his hands on his knees, asked softly.

"I want to go up, and it's double in one go. The price is raised through taxation, and in the end, it all falls into his pocket. Your Majesty doesn't care about anything, isn't the treasury just his strange private treasury? The price of weapons has risen, and this hand is obviously to weaken us and want to strangle us!" As he spoke, King Yu casually threw the bamboo slip on the table in front of the macaque king.

After a slight sigh of relief, King Yu continued to say, "Fortunately, the elders are not stupid. Such a big thing is not something that can be perfunctory with the phrase 'it is His Majesty's will'. ”

"But I can't help him. Picking up the teacup, the macaque king blew lightly and said, "The elders have no military power, and the noise in the court is not just a matter of a holy decree in the end?

"Do you dare to force that multi-eyed monster?"

"Do you think he wouldn't dare?" The Macaque King glanced at the Tamarin King with the corner of his eye, took a sip of tea, and said, "In this world, I'm afraid there is nothing he dares not do." However, even if we all go, can we still resist the decree in person? ”

After a moment's hesitation, King Yu asked in a low voice, "Emperor Jun, are you really not in the palace?"

The Macaque King smiled and raised his eyes, "No." ”

"Are you sure?"

......

There was a loud "bang", and the multi-eyed monster slapped his palm on the table.

Suddenly, the entire hall fell silent.

The round eyes slowly swept from the seat, and the multi-eyed monster gritted his teeth and said in a hoarse voice: "The old man serves His Majesty with a loyalty, loyalty to His Majesty, loyalty to the demon clan. There is no need for any clearing. His Majesty is in retreat, and it is inconvenient to disturb him. If anyone dares to question the matter of the Moon Crystal Mine, it is disobeying the Holy Decree, and it deserves the punishment of ten thousand ants devouring the heart!"

The voice slowly echoed in the Ten Thousand Demon Palace, and every word, the multi-eyed monster gritted its teeth and said it.

The elders of the beast and feather clans present immediately gasped. Gritted his teeth and glared at the multi-eyed monster, but he didn't dare to make more movements.

Obviously, they underestimated the will of the head of the civil ministers, the great prime minister of the demon clan. It's been 10,000 years, and no one has ever been able to stop him from doing anything, including Dijun.

The entire hall was silent.

After a long time, an orc elder left the table. Immediately after the second, the third, and the fourth, it finally evolved into a large number of departures, and even the Yu clan joined in.

The multi-eyed monster turned its face slightly away from them, as if nothing had happened.

Soon, only half of the demon clan elders were left in the main hall.

All of them were silent, as dead as silence.

Bowing slightly, Ao Tingxin said loudly: "Multi-eyed Prime Minister, the matter is big, Tingxin can't be the master alone, you need to return to the Dragon Palace to report to your father, and then reply." ”

The words fell, and the entire hall returned to its previous deathly silence.

After a long time, the multi-eyed monster said softly: "If you want to report to your father, just send someone to go." You can stay in the demon capital for a while. ”

......

"Sure. ”

"How sure are you?"

"Pretty sure. ”

King Yu snorted coldly and said with a smile: "Just because you say 'very sure', do you want me to lead troops into the palace?"

Saying this, the Macaque King immediately frowned, looked at the Tamarin King and smiled slowly: "Come and see, what is the difference between these two paintings." ”

"Painting?" The Tamarin King took two steps forward in confusion, glanced at the painting twice, and said, "It's exactly the same." ”

"Are you sure?"

"Forehead ......" was asked like this, and King Yu was obviously a little confused, looked at it twice, and said, "It seems to be ...... There's a little difference. ”

"What's the difference?" asked the Macaque King again.

King Yu was a little annoyed, shook his hand and said: "I'm talking to you about Emperor Jun, what are you telling me about paintings?

Before the words fell, I only heard the macaque king say lightly: "This one was painted by Di Jun himself." ”

"Huh?"

"Painting is like a person. I have been painting for hundreds of years. In order to know what Di Jun is thinking. Now, this one is not so good. However, you're right, breaking into the palace is not something that can be done with the words 'very sure' alone. If Emperor Jun is not in the palace, you can certainly cure Duomu for the crime of falsely transmitting the holy decree and execute him on the spot. But if Emperor Jun is in the palace, then you are a rebellion, a capital crime. ”

As he spoke, the macaque king got up, walked to the window step by step, and slammed it open.

In an instant, the breeze flew into the room with bamboo leaves, like an instant influx of spring in the garden.

Among the falling leaves, the macaque king said leisurely: "In a few days, I will invite someone for you and let him try it for you." ”

Hearing this, King Yu's eyes slowly narrowed into a slit, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"

......

When Ao Tingxin left the Ten Thousand Demon Palace, it was already dusk.

However, such a time division method does not make much sense in the demon capital, especially in the underground part of the demon capital.

Following the instructions of the multi-eyed monster, Qing Yu quickly arranged a separate residence for Ao Tingxin in the dungeon of the demon capital.

It is said to be a residence, but it is not a house, but a mansion that is half-embedded in the underground space of the demon capital and has only one side opening.

More than a dozen rooms, a small courtyard, a unique decoration of the demon country, and ...... I can't tell if it's a guard or a demon soldier who cares about it.

Looking at the demon soldiers who glanced at the demon soldiers who came from time to time outside, Nuan Nuan couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.

"Don't worry, sister. Qing Yu softly reassured: "The prime minister just doesn't want you to go back and forth." After all, when the result is obtained, you still need to go to the temple and submit the documents. It's also your first time in the demon capital, so it's good to take advantage of the past few days to walk around?"

That being said, Nuan Nuan couldn't laugh at all.

Looking back, Ao Tingxin looked calm, only sitting on a stone chair in the courtyard and sipping tea, completely breeze.

After Qing Yu left, Nuan Nuan asked in a low voice, "Sister Tingxin, what happened, were we taken hostage?"

Ao Tingxin sighed lightly and said, "Yes...... Or not. ”

"Is it the hell, those ...... out there? Obviously came to stare at us. ”

Bowing his head and taking a sip of tea, Ao Tingxin said softly: "A month ago, there were rumors in the Three Realms that the Demon Emperor Junshou Yuan was about to die, and he was no longer in the Moyu Imperial City. The so-called holy decree is a multi-eyed and strange pretentiousness of the prime minister. When I saw it today, the demon king was absent, and the elders of the demon clan made a mistake, I am afraid that they all believed it. In the demon capital, it has become a tense situation. The multi-eyed prime minister wants to borrow the hand of my dragon clan to weaken the military strength of the demon kings. ”

"Above the court today, the elders of the beast and feather clans are the main forces opposing the prime minister. If we follow, we will offend half of the demon kingdom and the six demon kings. Business can't be done, if you don't get it right, my dragon clan will have to have a bloody disaster. But have you noticed, the insects and scales are both in favor of the multi-eyed prime minister. If we don't comply, we will offend the other half of the demon kingdom and the entire civil service system of the demon kingdom. Unless the Demon King can bring down the Numerous, otherwise, business will not be able to do either. ”

"So what should we do, we're still locked up here?"

"Broker and find a way to buy time. Soon, there will be a big storm in the demon capital, and before the situation is clear and the dust settles, all of us will have to hold it first. Taking a deep breath, Ao Tingxin smiled faintly, and then said, "The multi-eyed prime minister probably knows that we have this." He wants to use us to force the dragon to submit as soon as possible, after all, he doesn't have much time. But...... It's okay, fortunately, it's the two of us, not my father. ”

As he spoke, Ao Tingxin turned his face sideways to look at Nuan Nuan, and said softly: "As the princess of the Dragon Clan, we must not change the color of Mount Tai in front of us, so that no one can see our flaws." When necessary, for the sake of the whole race, there must also be the consciousness of sacrificing oneself. ”

put down these words, and Nuan Nuan didn't come to his senses for a long time. Looking at Ao Tingxin's unwavering gaze, he replied in a low voice after a while: "Nuan Nuan, I understand." ”
