The first volume of [The Prosperous Demon Clan's Wind is Ruthless] Chapter 43 The road of the Young Emperor is full of dangers
Shui Duyan looked at the drawings of the four parts of the world, and her expression was not good, and she couldn't see where to go.
In the east, Xuanyuan of the Bingling Kingdom is called the Nine Heavens Ice Emperor, which is under the jurisdiction of Bailan and has three-quarters of the complete territory. The remaining quarter belongs to the Donglin Demon King Ling Dongxiao, but this is a rebellious master, his heart is higher than the sky, he wants to annex the entire Bingling Country, and he can send troops to harass him from time to time.
The west is not optimistic, the four fallen gods occupy a quarter of the land, the demon king of the Western Regions Luo Shen Emperor also occupies a quarter of the land, but the Emperor Gongye Haining of the Wind City only has half of the land left.
The situation in the south is the worst, Nancheng Emperor Nangong Juntian only has a quarter of the territory, Qianqiu Valley occupies half of the land, Nanchi Demon King Luo Canggui also has a quarter of the land, and Qianqiu Valley and Nanchi Demon King are not fuel-efficient lamps, in recent years, the two are even more rampant, but Nancheng Huang is powerless to return to the sky.
The north side is considered stable, and the Emperor Liang of Snow City occupies three-quarters of the land, and the Northern Demon King Fan Chengju only has a quarter of the land, but he has never rebelled.
Shui Duyan said softly, "In my opinion, it is best to centralize power first, then exterminate the traitors, and finally fight against the God Realm. ”
"Is there a detailed plan?"
Shui Duyan hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know how many people you can trust, if there are many people, then you can replace them in the corresponding position, divide power and rule, and directly under your jurisdiction." If there are few people, one person will use more, this method is the most streamlined, but it is also a risky move. ”
"What is multi-purpose for one person? "Brandy.
Shui Duyan spread out a piece of paper, picked up the pen and said as he draw: "If there are few people, it is not enough to distribute to all important places, but a person can appear in multiple places with different identities to achieve the purpose of centralizing power by one person, and these people are all your cronies, which also achieves the purpose of centralizing power." For example, this north is a military stronghold, and the Emperor of Syracuse has been training day and night in recent years, and although he is a loyal minister now, he doesn't know what will happen in the future. Thousand Winds likes to fight the most, wouldn't it be best if he was sent there, and if he wanted to control the entire Syracuse City, or even play a monitoring role, he could only appear as the Emperor of Syracuse. If he is the prince, it is the most convenient, he can do everything himself, and he is also justified. The Quartet of the Demon World only knows that there are five demon generals under the Demon Emperor Bai Lan but they don't know their names, let alone see them, and the five demon generals have never appeared, everyone must think that the five demon generals are stationed next to the Demon Emperor, who admits that they have already entered various places. In this way, one person can control multiple powers, and it is easy for you to control the news if you know who they are. The enemy is dark and I am clear, I know myself and the enemy, and I will not be defeated in a hundred battles. ”
Bai Lan looked at the diagram on the paper, his eyebrows were deep, he knew that this was indeed a risky move.
Bai Lan asked again, "Do you know the difficulties and dangers behind this?"
Shui Duyan looked at Bai Lan's deep face, took a deep breath and said, "If Qianfeng is the prince of Syracuse, many movements are restricted, and his identity is mainly transformed into the prince of Syracuse, and his every move will be concerned by the eight directions of the demon world. If Qianfeng dies one day and his rights are lost, the connections and others he has accumulated over the years will dissipate with him. If it is inherited by a loyal minister, it is fine, but if it is a traitor, it is like a tiger with wings. And it is also difficult to send Qianfeng into Syracuse quietly and justifiably, and it is also difficult for Qianfeng to withstand so much in his own ability. ”
"You know very well, it seems that you thought it through before you said that. Bai Lan waved her hand and burned the drawing clean, glanced at Shui Duyan, and said with a smile: "Yan'er, your idea is really a dangerous move, if you are the Demon Emperor, how will you choose?"
Shui Duyan chuckled in her heart, Bai Lan's question really stumped her. She was just hypothetical, and she couldn't think of a better way, and now that Bai Lan asked her so, how should she answer? If the trial plan fails, it will increase the difficulty for Bai Lan to dominate the world, and at worst, it will lead to the collapse of the Demon Realm system, and even if it is used for another 300,000 years, it may not be able to repair it. If the rest of the Five Realms take advantage of the void at this time, the luck of the Demon Realm will come to an end, and she will be a sinner through the ages, and Bai Lan will be spurned by the beings of the Demon Realm like her.
Bai Lan looked at Shui Duyan's embarrassed face, so she comforted: "But it doesn't hurt to say, this decision was made by me after all, I just want to hear your opinion." ”
Shui Duyan hesitated for a moment and said, "If it were you, according to your temperament, you would definitely choose the safest way." I'm too aggressive, but I'm not a Demon Emperor, otherwise, you should know what a terrible decision I'd make. Not to mention this difficulty factor, if I were the Demon Emperor, I would not only have to install my cronies everywhere, but I would also kill all the forces that did not surrender in the fastest way. Although the war between gods and demons is imminent, if these people are traitors, it will not be a bigger trouble if they turn back when the time comes, it is better to deal with it now to prevent future troubles. ”
"Go on. ”
Shui Duyan suddenly knelt on one knee, and arched his hand with a serious face: "Demon Emperor, are you willing to listen to the minister?"
Bai Lan looked at Shui Duyan with a serious face, but she couldn't guess what Shui Duyan was going to say.
"You say. ”
"The war between gods and demons is nothing but the right to rule the two worlds, as a monarch, the duty is to seek the well-being of the people, if as a monarch has to conquer the world, will not the people's livelihood be miserable? Such a monarch will be betrayed, the people only want a happy and happy life, and those who like to play with power only want to be famous all over the world, and the world is powerful, without any regard for the suffering of the people. If the demon realm dominates the world after 50,000 years, it may not be a good thing if the war between gods and demons wins. If you dominate the world but are unable to fight, it is better to submit a letter of surrender to ensure the peace of the world and avoid the misery of life. ”
"Surrender?"
Seeing Bai Lan's expression change suddenly, Shui Duyan did not panic, and continued: "Submitting the surrender letter is indeed detrimental to the authority of the Son of Heaven, but I think that since the Demon Emperor is the lord of the Demon Realm, he can bear the support of all living beings and should be able to bear the humiliation and pain. If all the qi of the demon realm is exhausted in the battle, how can we talk about fighting again? If we endure for a while, there will definitely be a day when we will make a comeback, and although the time is far away, there will be such a day after all. It's better than the destruction of the creatures of the Demon Realm, and you have to be attacked and ridiculed by the Five Realms, and there will be no day to turn over. ”
Bai Lan smiled, got up and said, "According to your words, one person can use more than one person." ”
Shui Duyan didn't answer, she knew very well that Bai Lan, as a demon emperor, was so important in majesty, but as an emperor, she surrendered, and the entire demon world was disgraced.
In this world, is peace or face important? Different people have different ideas.
Even if peace is exchanged, such a peace will inevitably be humiliated, and life is worse than death. So, if the battle fails, it seems that it will also be humiliating, but it is better than surrendering, but how many people will die in that way?
Therefore, whoever is the emperor has the final say, this world, the weak and the strong, has never changed, and it cannot change.
She wasn't called Xuanyuan Lonely, she was called Shui Duiyan, but apart from Bai Lan and the other four demon generals, who knew who she was? After 10,000 years of separation, as a killer, she had Bai Lan's dream and gritted her teeth to spend countless long nights. And what she yearns for is just to find a person who will live forever.
Through the moonlight like water, Shui Duyan sneered and drank glass after glass of spirits.
Shui Duyan drank cup after cup, silent, and after a while, she choked on her throat because she drank too quickly.
The night is not young.
Shui Duyan stood alone outside the door of the Sorrow Palace, looking at the huge Sorrow Hall behind him with a wry smile.
Bai Lan still has to live here for thousands of years, and he thought that Shui Duyan could also be with him, but now, it seems that Shui Duyan should not be the only one who is by his side.
But now, how can Shui Duyan be willing to leave? How torture is this escape for Shui Duyan? But what can you do if you don't leave? Seeing others being gentle as water to Bai Lan, while Shui Duyan can only clumsily shout and kill?
The moment Shui Duyan turned her back, tears slipped down, silently, quietly silent, just like Shui Duyan's departure.
"Bailan, I'll go first, if there is a return date, I only hope that we can still be the same, if there is no return date, may you be in peace. After Shui Duyan finished speaking, he turned around, and with a wave of his red sleeves, he turned into red light and disappeared into the Hall of Sorrow.
Following.
"Still can't find any trace of Princess Lonely Face?" Qi Yuwei frowned, looking worried, and at the same time looked at Bai Lan, who was silent.
"That's it, Yan Er probably dislikes this palace is too boring, just go out for a walk, it's okay, I'll come back when I'm tired of playing." When she said this, Bai Lan's eyes were full of sadness, as if to say that a person who would not come back was still there.
"His Royal Highness the Prince......" Qi Yuwei still wanted to say something, but Bai Lan whispered: "Let's go down, I want to be quiet." I was sent away, so I had to leave reluctantly. All the palace ladies also left the Hall of Sorrow.
Bai Lan looked at the Sorrow Hall and muttered, "Worry Palace...... Why can't you alone soothe your sorrow?"
When everyone dispersed, only Bai Lan was left, guarding this empty and cold palace, he was used to being cold, but now he is not used to it. I always feel empty in my heart, is it because there will always be someone who follows him and never abandons. Now this man does not say goodbye, and even does not know when he will return.
Night falls.
Bai Lan waited alone for a long time, and never saw Shui Duyan return, so she knew that Shui Duyan had left. So I had to enter the main hall in frustration, and when I glanced down, I saw that there was a snack box next to the pillow where Shui Duyan was sleeping. He opened it and saw that a good box of mung bean cakes slept quietly in the box, not noisy or noisy.
Bai Lan gently picked up a piece and bit it gently, smiling slightly, but her eyes were moist.
Outside the Worry Palace, Qi Yuwei was still standing stupidly.
Qi Yuwei looked at the starry sky, her eyes were also filled with countless tears, she carefully bit her delicate lip, and said to herself: "In terms of appearance and talent, she is far inferior to me." But why do you think so highly of her? I have followed you for two thousand years, but you have never taken me to heart, even if it is just a corner. She can call you Nangong at will, but I can only call you His Royal Highness the Prince; you call her Yan'er in private, but you only call me Yuwei in private; you will call her silent face in public, but you will only call me Prime Minister Qi. Nangong ...... Are you too biased?"
As she spoke, tears fell from Qi Yuwei's eyes, falling like broken threads.
"Prime Minister right, it's late at night, let's go back. The maid reminded her gently, but the words were like a sharp knife cutting her throat, making Qi Yuwei choked and speechless.
She has been guarding outside the Comfort Palace, boiled the lotus seed soup, and waited for Bai Lan to taste it when she came out, but Bai Lan never came out again. The lotus seed soup was cold, and Qi Yuwei's heart was also cold.
A month later.
Nancheng Emperor Nangong Juntian announced his abdication, and the crown prince Nangong Ao succeeded to the throne, and on the same day, he married Bai Lan and Qi Yuwei.
The wedding card was sent to the Imperial Palace of Bingling Kingdom, and the Nine Heavens Ice Emperor Xuanyuan Zhao sent someone to send Mu Jiufeng to Shui Duyan.
When she heard the news that Bai Lan was married and inherited the throne, and that Qi Yuwei would be crowned three days later, Shui Duyan just took the prayer post, smiled, and didn't speak.
The Southern Palace.
The southern city is full of lights, which is really a celebration for the whole world, and all the people are happy.
Shui Duyan rode a white horse, dressed in red, scattered three thousand green silks on the red clothes, no sorrow or joy. Walk through the streets of Nancheng and go straight to the Taiji Hall of the Nancheng Imperial Palace.
