Chapter 230: There is something in the words

"You're right. can be unknown to you, but is so good to you, will definitely not be a bad person. But ......"

White Frost pursed his lips and wanted to say, "But I don't see him being so good to others, could there be any other reason?" But when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.

On the other side, Chang Xi was still immersed in the pride of his father, and said proudly: "In short, my father is the best person in the world." ”

......

In the side hall, Di Jun sighed softly as if recounting an old story: "Power and duty are always accompanied by each other, and once the balance is lost, there is a danger of collapse." In this world, there is no one who can only enjoy it, but not bear it. So it is with me, and so it is with you. ”

"The wealth of the dragon clan and the obligations they have undertaken have long been mismatched. ”

"But. Ao Tingxin knelt on his knees, leaned over and kowtowed: "Those riches are all the hard work of our dragon clan...... cumulative. ”

"Really?" Di Jun smiled faintly and said, "Who in this world is not hard? What if I also allow other forces to do business in the Demon Country?

"This ......"

"The Bull Demon King covets the wealth of the Dragon Clan, I know that. It's not just him, those who covet the wealth of the dragon clan are as far as I know, and I can't count them with one hand. Either one, it can make the dragon clan like a great enemy. It's just that the Bull Demon King can't bear it. At this point, Di Jun sighed lightly, and then said: "The matter between the Bull Demon King and your dragon clan, I am very clear. Not only that, but I also know what kind of role the Bull Demon King played in the rebellion of the demon capital. But, I'm not going to do anything to him, at least not yet. ”

"Such a big country, tens of millions of subjects, I can't cage it in my hands. I also need the major demon kings to command the troops to fight against the heavenly court and block the expansion of the heavenly army. As Fang Caizhen said, every one should have his obligations, which is the meaning of his existence. On the issue of resisting the Heavenly Army, Withered Leaf Ze has fulfilled his duty, so there are a thousand reasons, and I am just knocking and beating to maintain the balance. Demon kings and civil officials, I will not let anyone have the absolute upper hand, because they can all fulfill their obligations and have the meaning of existence. ”

"As for the dragons, can you find a new position and take on more responsibilities so that I feel that your existence is necessary and commensurate with what you have gained?"

Sitting on the main seat and looking down at Ao Tingxin, Di Jun smiled.

Ao Tingxin couldn't help but be stunned.

......

Before coming, Ao Tingxin had imagined countless ways.

She thought that Di Jun would turn her away directly, and she thought that Di Jun would offer a high price as a reward for completely removing obstacles to the dragon clan's trade in the demon country. He even thought that Di Jun would directly deprive the dragon clan of their right to trade in the demon kingdom. However, she had never thought of this way......

Di Jun was like an old man, sitting on the throne and talking with her, with a serious and good talk. At the end of the day, nothing was decided, everything was just the point.

Probably no one would have thought of this. Whether in the heavenly court or in the history books of the demon capital, they are all vigorous and resolute, and the iron-fisted emperor Jun ......

When he walked out of the side hall, Ao Tingxin felt that his whole mind was in a mess.

"Sister Tingxin, did your father help you solve the problem?" Chang Xi took Bai Shuang's hand and walked over quickly.

Is it solved?

This question, for a while, Ao Tingxin couldn't answer it.

said that it was not solved, and Di Jun had clearly given the answer. His attitude has been completely laid out, what he accepts and what he does not accept, in his words, he has already made it all clear. Faintly, Ao Tingxin felt that Di Jun had hinted at his own solution.

But when it came to solving the problem, Di Jun didn't have a clear promise to tell the dragon clan what to do so that they could gain the support of the Demon Emperor. Even vaguely told Ao Tingxin that although this matter of the Bull Demon King was a little morally unreasonable, but the withered leaves were far more important to the Demon Emperor than the Dragon Clan, so he would not stop it.

"What's wrong?" Chang Xi asked, tilting his head.

The white frost on the side also kept staring at Ao Tingxin.

Helpless, Ao Tingxin had to reply euphemistically: "Your Majesty the Demon Emperor...... I mentioned a lot of people. ”

"Can that be solved?"

"It should be able to ...... bar. ”

Ao Tingxin replied with a little embarrassment.

......

On the way back, Ao Tingxin sat in the carriage, frowning slightly. Dijun's words kept repeating in his mind.

"To put it simply, if we dragons want to get out of the current predicament, the most fundamental way is to make ourselves important?"

"As long as it becomes important, the Demon Emperor will be willing to support us. But how do we make ourselves ...... Let the Demon Emperor think we are important?"

It's a tough question.

Compared with the dragon clan, the demon capital is a behemoth. Aside from trade, it seems that no matter what the dragons do, they won't attract anyone's attention.

Now, it seems that Teejun feels that trade is irrelevant. On the contrary, it is the wealth held by the dragon clan that has become the object of coveting by all parties.

Thinking about it, Ao Tingxin smiled helplessly.

Also, even if the trade of the dragon clan is completely cut off, aren't there still merchants of the demon clan in the demon kingdom? Their problem is that they can't get the products of the heavenly court. As long as the trade is completely cut off, there will naturally be someone in the Heavenly Court to take the place of the dragon clan, and the two sides will only need to run in a little at that time......

The advantage of choosing the dragon clan as the medium of trade between the two sides is nothing more than the convenience of control. Just like all along, the dragon clan did not dare to go against Emperor Jun's will, even in private.

The wheel bones spun around and went out of the Moyu Imperial City, all the way along the narrow passage, up to the dungeon. Leaving the heavily guarded palace ban, there seemed to be more pedestrians around.

"If we can't make the Demon Emperor feel important, then let others think we are important?" Ao Tingxin seemed to think of something.

The biggest problem with the dragon clan's predicament is that the demon kingdom, they have no real friends, no allies, and no one is completely on the same side as them.

......

In the Dragon Clan's mansion, in the small room, Ao Tingxin knelt as usual.

"Demon Emperor...... Don't you want to make a move?"

Ao Tingxin shook his head and said, "His Majesty the Demon Emperor means that if we want him to make a move, then we must make him feel that we are more important to him than the withered leaves. ”

"How is this possible......? Not to mention how much strength we have, the dragon clan itself does not belong to the demon clan, and it is not a courtier under his command, how can we be more important than the withered leaves?"

Ao Tingxin took a deep breath and said, "So, what His Majesty the Demon Emperor means is that he won't help us." Our affairs should be solved by ourselves. ”

"That'...... How did you solve it?"

"Yes, there has to be a way first, right? Could it be that the Demon Emperor wants to watch the trade that has been unimpeded for thousands of years stop?"

"Since the Demon Emperor is willing to see you, it shouldn't be enough to say nothing......, right? Implication or something, right?"

The four dragon kings looked at each other, and they all scratched their scalps.

Ao Tingxin hesitated and said, "Your Majesty the Demon Emperor, I said something. ”

"What did you say?" Hearing this, the four dragon kings immediately cheered up and stretched out their ears.

After a moment of silence, Ao Tingxin continued: "During the conversation, His Majesty the Demon Emperor mentioned the opinion of the withered leaves, and even said that the role of the withered leaves in the rebellion of the demon capital has long been clear. ”

This is heavyweight news, and the four dragon kings can't help but be stunned for a moment.

But what does this have to do with you?

Seeing that his words had hooked the four dragon kings, Ao Tingxin continued: "But His Majesty the Demon Emperor also said that the current demon country still needs Withered Yeze, so he won't make a move on Withered Yeze." ”

The Dragon King of the East China Sea frowned and asked, "His Majesty the Demon Emperor really said that?"

"It's true. Ao Tingxin said loudly: "His Majesty the Demon Emperor has said a few things, first, the wealth of our dragon clan is coveted, which is normal. In these three realms, the obligations we bear and the rights we enjoy are not equal. Two, he won't make a move, because we don't have as much of a dead leaf as important to him. Third, although the Bull Demon King is important, it is only because there is no one to replace him for the time being, and he still needs Withered Leaf Ze to fight against the Heavenly Army. In his words, he bluntly questioned the Bull Demon King. Four ......"

"What is four?" the South Sea Dragon King's eyes widened.

"Four ......" Ao Tingxin said cautiously, "His Majesty the Demon Emperor has mentioned the new army. It is said that the new army is responsible for the rebalancing of the demon country, and for this reason, the multi-eyed prime minister attaches so much importance to it. It's just that within the demon country, all kinds of relationships are complicated, and although His Majesty the Demon Emperor intends to promote it, he must also take into account the reactions of all parties. ”

This last one was made up by Ao Tingxin. However, several dragon kings obviously believed it.

"The new army?" is the army of the stone monkeys?"

"If that's what you want to say...... Then, as the rumors say, the stone monkey will become the seventh demon king of the demon kingdom......"

"Do you think that what the Demon Emperor said to Tingxin has something to do with the matter we asked him to help?"

"It's not going to accuse us of breaking the contract, is it?"

With this, the faces of the four dragon kings immediately changed.

Seeing this, Ao Tingxin continued: "Tingxin thinks that the Demon Emperor doesn't want to accuse us of breaking the contract. ”

"What does that mean?" asked the Dragon King of the Western Sea.

Ao Tingxin was silent, his eyes looking straight ahead.

After a while, the Dragon King of the East China Sea spoke: "The Demon Emperor must have something to say, but we have to understand it ourselves." Since Tingxin is talking directly to the Demon Emperor, he should understand it most clearly. Listen to the heart, what do you think, talk about it. ”

"Let's talk about it. Several of the other dragon kings chimed in.

Pursing his lips, Ao Tingxin said softly: "Father, three uncles, I think that His Majesty the Demon Emperor means that he hopes that we will support the new army. ”

"Support the Forces nouvelles?"

"Yes. Ao Tingxin raised his head and said, "His Majesty the Demon Emperor has been revolving around the word 'important' from beginning to end. The implication is that if we are important enough, then he will help without us saying it. If we don't matter, then even if we say it, it's useless. ”

"To get out of the current situation, we can only make ourselves more 'important'. Only if His Majesty the Demon Emperor, the Prime Minister of Many, and even the entire demon feel that we are important to them, will they help us. And we will only matter if we are completely on their side. The so-called 'important' should be relative. ”

"Now His Majesty the Demon Emperor is supporting the new army, and the multi-eyed prime minister also regards the new army as the top priority, as for the Bull Demon King, for the multi-eyed prime minister, it is actually a thorn in the side. The dispute between the Wenchen and the demon king of the demon country has long existed. Although the Demon Emperor still thinks that the Bull Demon King can help, he has already ...... The attempt to replace it with a new army is a case in point. Therefore, I feel that His Majesty the Demon Emperor means that he hopes that we will support the new army. ”

At the end of the words, Ao Tingxin deliberately accentuated his tone and looked at the four dragon kings with wide eyes.

The four dragon kings were all stunned.

"This ...... We've just broken the contract, won't it ......?"

"Listen to the heart and be sure that a new agreement will be concluded. Ao Tingxin said loudly: "It's just that this agreement may be more harsh than the previous one." I also ask for my father's understanding and my three uncles. ”

The whole room was silent.

After a while, the Dragon King of the North Sea resignedly said, "Do you want to be more harsh......?" It's not cheap anymore. The intention of the Demon Emperor, do you understand it wrong?"

"If the fourth uncle wants to say this, then he can only ask the fourth uncle to ask the demon emperor himself. ”

As soon as these words came out, the Dragon King of the North Sea had to quickly shake his head and wave his hand: "Don't don't, don't, I'll just ask, just ask." Just ask. ”

"Or, my father and the three uncles, is there something else better?"

There is no doubt that this knife will definitely not be light. But when it comes to the Demon Emperor, who dares to take this responsibility?

With a bitter face, the four dragon kings could only grit their teeth and nod their heads one by one.

"In that case...... Then listen to you. The Dragon King of the East China Sea sighed lightly.
