Chapter 575: The lion opens its mouth and tries to rip off the emperor!
"Uncle Xi, long time no see."
Yao Yun's eyesight was very good, and he saw someone stepping on a blue bird from a distance, coming through the fog. Seeing an old acquaintance, Yao Yun was wondering what the emperor's intention was, and he actually asked a dignified minister of the Celestial Dynasty to travel thousands of miles to come to Xiguo to pass the news.
purpose.
"I have met the Marquis of Xixing."
When the visitor came down, Yao Yun stepped forward to greet him, and at the same time nodded to the Blue Bird Messenger.
Seeing this, the Blue Bird Messenger quickly bowed and returned the gift in a decent manner, feeling very flattered.
This is the advantage of being strong. When Yao Yun first took charge of the Xi Kingdom, the Blue Bird Envoy came to the Xi Kingdom for the first time to convey the decree. He was so arrogant that he wished he could raise his head to the sky.
Yao Yun did not pay too much attention to the attitude of the Blue Bird Envoy, but turned his eyes and fell on Xixing Hou:
"I don't know why Marquis Xixing came all the way to do this, but what are the emperor's orders?"
Marquis Xixing smiled: "Yes, I do have something important to ask you. I went to the capital just now. Elder Wu Tong said you were at Tianwen College, so he came here quickly."
Yao Yun was stunned when he heard this, smiled thoughtfully, stretched out his hand to invite him, and led him into the main room to sit down.
After some polite exchanges, the Marquis of Xixing told the whole story.
"That's it. When it comes to controlling insects, the countries in the Southern Wilderness are the best, and the Xi Kingdom is the best among the countries in the Southern Wilderness. Therefore, the emperor sent me to ask you for advice on how to eliminate them."
Yao Yun sneered: "Since the emperor and the ministers of the court have recognized Xiguo's ability to exterminate and control pests, why not let Gu take charge of the overall situation of pest control? Is he afraid that his ministers' high achievements will shock the emperor and threaten his throne?"
"Hey, be careful what you say, be careful what you say." The Marquis of Xixing was so frightened that he almost broke out in sweat: "Uncle Xi, don't talk nonsense, you..."
"I understand, I'm just feeling emotional."
Yao Yun felt like a mirror in his heart. Everyone else could preside over the overall situation of exterminating pests, but he, Yao Yun, couldn't do it. If nothing else, it was because he was the son of Yao Xuan, and at the same time he had rejected the goodwill of the Emperor Di Mu. All these things
Such benefits cannot fall into his hands.
This is one of the unspoken rules of the Celestial Dynasty. As a direct descendant of the previous generation of emperors, his growth path is more bumpy than ordinary people. The higher he reaches, the more he needs to learn to survive in the cracks and seize every opportunity for growth.
The Marquis of Xixing shook his head, took a sip of tea, and said: "It's good that Uncle Xi understands. In fact, I don't agree with you taking charge of the overall situation. There are many countries in China and the situation is complicated. You do have talents, but many of them rely on your talents and talents.
It can be settled. Prejudice is a big mountain. Some people always think that the older you are, the more capable you are."
In fact, Yao Yun has also recently been drafting an insect extermination strategy, which he is preparing to present to Imperial City Master Yun. Firstly, it is to save the people of Middle-earth who are deeply affected by the insect infestation. Secondly, the practice of [Ten Thousand Soldiers Returning to the Clan] requires a lot of spiritual power and energy.
Luck beads.
Yao Yun has no hope of being able to preside over the overall situation of pest control.
Even if he doesn't give up hope, Yao Yun will not put his hot face on someone's cold butt. He deeply sympathizes with the people who are affected by the disaster and is willing to do his best to save the innocent people who are suffering. However, this does not mean that he is selfless.
Dedication, handing over the wealth belonging to the Xi Kingdom to others.
Can’t take all the credit, Yao Yun
Yao Yun smiled noncommittally, turned around and said: "To put it bluntly, the emperor is not prepared to let Gu get this credit, but also wants Gu to give away the witchcraft formula and rune secrets? Is this the reason?"
"This..." Marquis Xixing was at a loss for words and was speechless. If she thought about it carefully, it was really like this, which made her blush and find it difficult to speak.
The reason why he took up this job before was because he was deeply impressed by Xi Boyi and Bo Yuntian's heart for the world. Yao Yun was willing to dedicate his iron-making skills last time, and he thinks he will be the same this time.
Unfortunately, the situation does not seem to be what he expected.
"Uncle Xi, you have changed. You were not so fussy about things back then. This is a major event that concerns countless people in Middle-earth..."
"Gu has never changed from beginning to end. No one wants to see thousands of people in dire straits, but no one wants to be a fool. Marquis of Xixing, what kind of person do you think Gu is?"
The Marquis of Xixing was immediately stunned and realized something.
At the beginning, Yao Yun was willing to dedicate his iron-making skills. On the one hand, it was to benefit all people, but also because the iron-making skills were of great importance, so he sacrificed himself to protect himself.
Xibo Yao Yun had the heart to save the common people in the world, but he was unwilling to be taken advantage of.
To put it bluntly, don’t do anything that is unprofitable!
The Marquis of Xixing nodded: "I understand. Whatever requests Xi Bo may have, just ask him. As long as he can save the people of China, everything can be easily discussed."
"Lord Si Tu, what you want to ask for is too vulgar. You only want to serve the people and only ask for someone to preside over pest control..."
"Ahem~ Uncle Xi, when it comes to business, don't tease me."
Yao Yun looked at the coughing Marquis of Xixing with a playful look on his face, and felt extremely emotional in his heart. The emperor was really afraid of him, for fear that he would serve in the country, and the Chinese and Turkish countries would make great contributions, win the hearts of the people, and shake his foundation.
"Forget it, Marquis of Xixing, Gu is not a worldly person. His father taught Gu to love the people like a son since he was a child. The people of the heaven are not only the people of the emperor, but also the people of the princes in the world. As a prince, Gu is supposed to solve the problems of all people.
It’s a matter of duty.”
This insect-killing witchcraft and rune secrets are indeed in Gu's hands, but they are state-owned and national laws, and families have family rules. These witchcraft and secrets are not only Gu's secret treasures, but also the wealth of the people of Xi Kingdom. Gu is not good at making decisions.
, give it away.
"If you want the people of the Xi Kingdom to donate their treasures, the emperor and the kings of all the countries in the Middle Kingdom must show some expression. The people of the Middle Kingdom are the emperor's people."
"Could it be that the people of our country, Xi, are not the people of the emperor, but are the children of the stepmother?"
Yao Yun talks eloquently.
At first, the Marquis of Xixing didn't take it seriously, but after listening to it, he also felt that it made sense. Xiguo's pest control policy was valuable knowledge learned by the people of Xiguo through long-term work. It was really inappropriate to take it away for no reason.
"What...what does Uncle Xi want? No, what kind of compensation do the people of Xi Kingdom need?" Marquis Xixing regretted taking up this job.
Yao Yun smiled slightly: "There are three compensations:
First, when exterminating pests, no matter who is in charge of the overall situation of pest control, they need to vigorously promote that the method of exterminating pests comes from the Xi Kingdom, not some guy boasting in the Golden Palace;
Secondly, the Kingdom of Xi is located in a remote southern wasteland, serving as the southern gate for all the Xia. However, there is a shortage of ritual utensils to control the country, and there are few master Qi practitioners in the country. We hope that the emperor will be considerate and grant two or three ritual utensils to suppress the country;
Thirdly, Xiguo is a small country guarding the southern gate of the Celestial Dynasty. It is full of dangers. The people in the country are worried every day and live in dire straits. They are in desperate need of a ghost-level warrior to take charge. It just so happens that Xiguo has a dormant dragon horn.
Shenlong, who has condensed his soul in the late fifth stage, has a piece of He Bo Ling in his hand, and hopes that the emperor will become a beautiful person, so that the people of Xi Kingdom can be protected and have a peaceful sleep..."
