Chapter 1544: Ci is not in power
“Since you want to keep your empress in this time, and you have even made up your mind to do it at all costs, why do you have to think and worry too much? Source blood is still taken by force, It won't hurt your life, why should you think of understanding?
It is not a fault for the weak to protect themselves in the face of disaster, and it is not a fault for those in power to use any means to achieve their goals, as your Excellency just said. Sentence, all things are like this, return to their roots, Everyone performs their duties and does their own thing.
Things in this world are not simply black and white. Adults only need to know what they want and what they want to do and then achieve their goals.
You don’t. As a saint like the empress, you don’t have to do everything in accordance with common sense. If you are confused, you can weigh whether the empress is more important or the wishes of these naughty children, and the answer you want will naturally be clear at a glance. "
"Sometimes, if you throw away all worries and be simple and rough, it will be easier to achieve your goals easily."
Qingxuan stared blankly at the serious person in front of him who was instilling crooked truths that made him feel relaxed and happy.
Even though it was unreasonable, it was extremely reasonable. In her intoxication, she suddenly became enlightened, as if the haze of years of internal consumption in her heart was gone.
Qingxuan couldn't help but laugh softly. His smile was as bright as the stars and the moon in the sky: "I have restrained myself, returned to etiquette, and strictly abided by the rules for so many years, but this is the first time I have heard such unreasonable nonsense from you. .
But it’s strange... I don’t know why, but the things I have been caring about in my heart for so many years seem to have become less important under your absurd reasoning.”
The empress never sticks to anything, and she doesn't care whether her followers are pious or not, and she has no disappointment. She does things without asking for anything in return, and she doesn't care about anyone's opinions.
Nectar rains in time, nothing is private.
So the empress is a saint and she is a mortal.
So she should do what a mortal should do based on her selfish desires, and blindly forcing herself to be like the empress would only be self-defeating.
Bailian smiled slightly and said: "If you pay attention to these things, they are naturally very important. If you don't pay attention to them, they are actually meaningless and as light as dust."
Qingxuan looked at Bai Lian and smiled, with a small dimple between his lips and cheeks.
Somehow, I couldn't help but stretched out a finger and poked it gently. A slight smile appeared on the corner of my lips and whispered: "The pear vortex is not the pear vortex, it is the flower blooming on the young man's face. .”
Bailian was distracted for a moment.
He was... being teased by this lady official who had always hated him through drunkenness?
Perhaps amused by Bai Lian's stunned reaction, Qingxuan chuckled again, "How can I be my queen's servant if I am so shy and can't let go of my figure?"
Bai Lian narrowed his eyes, he was very familiar with this tone. He already had experience in dealing with Ning Feiyan.
So he retreated instead of advancing. He smiled sweetly and came a little closer. He leaned over and said softly: "I am not talented, and I still have three points of experience in my appearance. But I am serving the king for the first time in my life." , I am afraid that I will not serve you well, and I will lose my sense of proportion.
How about taking this opportunity today and asking Lord Qingxuan to practice with me. , just in line with the truth of the rumors. In the future, it will be really a big sin to prevent the queen from having fun because she can't let go of her figure."
As expected, when Bai Lian said this, Qingxuan has always been cold and cold. Her face turned red, and she looked a bit spoiled. Without saying a word or saying a word, she slowly pulled the quilt over and hid her cheeks under the brocade quilt little by little.
……
...
After a night of wind and snow, a slight chill in the morning, and the damp and slightly drunken smell of alcohol at night had dried up, Qingxuan opened the palace door and was about to leave the Wangchen Palace when something suddenly happened behind him. A soft voice sounded like flowing water from a pure spring.
“Last night, I said I was going to look for the case files on refining the purity of the source blood. I thought Lord Qingxuan, who was very resolute and capable, actually stayed like that all night. What was he doing?”< br>
Qing Shui leaned against the wall with her arms folded, originally just joking.
Unexpectedly, when she saw that Qingxuan, the female official, seemed to be frightened, her shoulders shook violently in shock. She felt guilty as a thief, and almost hit her head against the newly closed palace door. She covered her beating heart. , slowly turned around and glanced at her faintly.
"Why don't you make any noise when you walk?"
Qing Shui looked at her strangely and said, "I have been walking like this all day long. It's not that you don't know, but you... What's wrong today? 1 I was so shocked, where did my usual composure go? I didn’t calm down. Didn’t you notice at all that there was someone standing behind me?”
Why do you feel so guilty about doing something bad? What does it look like?
Qing Shui glanced calmly at the inner hall room through the crack in the door, but saw that the candle lamp was not extinguished. Apparently, the corpse demon boy who often came here to read at night was also here last night.
It’s really strange.
Qingxuan usually hates the corpse demon proton the most. He came to pick up the case book last night and didn't come back all night. It seemed that he slept in the Wangchen Palace of the Empress.
So he...spent the night here with that kid?
After thinking about this, the eyes of the female officer Qingshui suddenly became subtle and meaningful.
Under the gaze of Qingshui, the female officer who narrowed her eyes and looked a bit mean, Qingxuan's heart skipped a beat and he said in a panic: "I didn't do anything last night!"
Qingshui The female officer burst out laughing and said, "I haven't asked anything yet."
She stepped forward lightly, leaned her head over, sniffed lightly, and said with a smile: "Hey? Mr. Qingxuan, who has always been self-disciplined, actually drank wine? It's rare."
Qingxuan dodged her and came closer to sniff. He pressed his back tightly against the door frame. He lowered his head and smelled the smell on his body. Although the clothes soaked by the wine last night had dried, the strong smell of alcohol still lingered on his body.
He really looked like he just woke up from a hangover.
She coughed lightly, and before Qing Shui could continue to press her, she spoke first: "It's nothing. I came here last night to look for the source of the blood records. I was in a complicated mood at the moment, so I took the boy to drink a few drinks. . ”
The suspicion on Qing Shui’s face did not diminish: “Is this really it?”
"It's just that." Qingxuan felt a headache and pinched the center of his eyebrows. She was no better than the empress. In fact, she had some alcoholic beverages and capacity. She rarely got drunk on weekdays. Even if she was drunk and her thoughts were in a trance, she was always in a daze. He has strict self-discipline, and he is not like Balian who goes crazy and screams for his mother when he gets drunk.
Even when she was drunk and confused, most of her memories were not lost due to drunkenness.
Overall, she didn’t do anything rude or inappropriate last night.
As for the "drunk sex" and other romantic stories that Qing Shui looked forward to in her eyes, it was even more impossible for her to happen.
But no matter how Qingxuan tried to convince herself, she knew in her heart that she was distracted for at least a moment last night, and her eyes on that boy were anything but innocent.
And what’s even more embarrassing is that it seems that the boy... saw it.
"Okay." Qing Shui lowered his eyes and smiled, took two steps back from Qing Xuan's body, stretched out his hand to carefully straighten the collar of her clothes that were a little messy and loose from sleeping, and said with a soft look: "I know that things have not been going well in recent days, and the collection of source blood has not been satisfactory. Seeing that the empress's calamity is approaching, there is still no way out.
When you feel heavy and upset, you always think about He took the responsibility alone and rarely showed it to others. He tolerated it and digested the pain in his heart secretly. Over time, he became the cold and cold person he is now.
Now he knows how to vent his frustration through wine. It’s also a good thing. As for the blood matter, you don’t have to be disappointed. We always have a way to help the empress..."
In response to Qing Shui's endless concern, Qing Xuan chuckled, interrupted her and said, "You also think this is a good thing?"
Qing Shui looked confused and hesitated. Said: "What...what?"
Qingxuan said calmly: "The inability to open the gate to the Holy Realm really makes me feel a lot of pressure. People with high positions are always unavoidable from this kind of pressure, but at the same time, we also have special rights. It’s better to be clear about self-confusion Use the power in your hands to distribute this pressure."
Qing Shui's eyes opened slightly, looking very surprised: "You mean..."
Qing Xuan's face. He regained his cold expression: "As a Kunlunzi, The people, of course, have been blessed by the Empress for many years, living in a place outside the sky, enjoying extremely pure spiritual power and fertile resources, but no one is born to enjoy all this without thinking of rewards. After all, there is a difference between the people and the moths. < br>
Qing Shui, pass on the order. All adult demons and fairies in the mountain must go to the blood pool to offer sacrifices to three lamps of blood. If anyone fails to comply, their qualifications to receive training materials for three years will be reduced. In this world, no matter where they are, But there is no reason to be freeloaders. "
The Kunlun Mountains are rich in resources. For an adult Kunlun demon immortal cultivator, three years of material quota is enough to equal the resources accumulated by the world's first-class cultivation immortal sect for a full hundred years.
< br>Compared to those three sources of blood, The value is high but not low.
Qing Shui's pupils widened in surprise, as if he was shocked and confused as to why Qingxuan's mood changed so drastically overnight.
"You... It was just a night of drinking, why did the idea become so radical? Is it likely that issuing such an order will cause dissatisfaction among many people?
Not to mention that the one who issued this order is not the empress. When the empress agreed to use Hanyu Pond as a bargaining chip to lose to the demon world, it already caused a lot of turmoil in the mountain. Now that the empress is in danger, you and I still..."
Green Xuan turned his gaze over, his eyes so bright that he said calmly: "There are thousands of people in the clan, but even the empress can't satisfy everyone. If you and I alone want to achieve our goals, if we are still tolerant, we will only develop these People are becoming more and more arrogant and ignorant of good and evil.
Hanyu Pond is the spiritual vein of heaven and earth. Not to mention that the empress is the Lord of Kunlun, every plant and tree in this mountain belongs to the empress. Even if the empress loses the Hanyu Pond, she has nothing to do with anyone else. No, it's ridiculous that they secretly feel dissatisfied Ultimately, all the resources for cultivation in the mountain come from gifts from the Empress. Just because everything we have received from the Empress for so many years has been taken for granted, how come it has become their property to receive supplies from the Empress every year? A necessity.
The people of Kunlun, who have never set foot in the mortal world, are worse than three-year-old children in the world. Those children who are not yet literate at least know that if they want a candy, they need to spend their own money to buy it. "
Qingxuan's eyes slanted coldly, and the smile on his lips was a little contemptuous: "They don't even understand such a simple truth. They should be the ones who should be ashamed of this, not us. Frustrated and disappointed, I don’t know why. Since ancient times, Ci has not been in power. Since she is a female official in Kunlun, the superior person in charge of power only needs to issue orders accurately. ”
Qing Shui was stunned for a long time before she realized that Qing Xuan was not a joke. She looked at Qing Xuan in amazement and couldn't help but sigh: "I really don't know what happened to you, Qing Xuan, but overnight, I felt... You really don't care about anything, your heart is as indestructible as a stone."
No one knows better than her why Qingxuan has been disappointed, struggling and suffering these days.
She didn’t know how to persuade her, but she finally persuaded herself?
However, seeing her look like this now, Qing Shui felt completely relieved.
Qingxuan shook his head: "Some things, once you decide to do it, you must follow it to the end. Looking forward and backward will only hinder the empress."
Qing Shui's eyes were complicated: "This matter is not easy to handle."
Qingxuan smiled: "Since you want to force the empress to stay in the world, it is tantamount to fighting against the law of heaven, which means that we resist Every step and everything we do is not easy to handle. , so awakened, I have already been prepared.”
…
…
After hearing the new summons issued by the female official Si Xi in Wangchen Hall. At that time, Master Qing Ao destroyed a whole cauldron of elixirs.
With an indifferent expression, he lifted the top of the furnace with a whisk, lifted up the sleeves of his Taoist robe with an expressionless expression, and personally collected the charred black residue from the furnace bit by bit.
He listened to the new news brought by the close disciples of the believers. He was silent for a long time, and suddenly chuckled: "I didn't expect that just two women would have such courage."
That famous heart The disciples also laughed and said: "Master, this is good news for us. On weekdays, our opening of the altar to teach Taoism has been quite effective. Half of the incense in the Kunlun Mountains has been distributed by our True Immortal Cult. Taken away, the people of the mountains Many people have already felt dissatisfied and wavered.
Now that the female officer Qingxuan is so ignorant and issues such unhuman orders, I am afraid that it will arouse resentment and resistance from many people. ."
Qing Master Ao slowly turned around and looked at the disciples who were kneeling on the ground with uncontrollable joy in their eyes. There was a trace of cold sarcasm in his eyes and he said indifferently: "Ignorance of propriety? That's all you've seen. ”
He rubbed his fingers, slowly rubbing away the remaining burnt marks on his fingertips, and sneered indifferently: "When it comes to self-interest, it will naturally arouse the resentment of many people, but resistance is not necessarily possible, as long as Cangnan Yi Once she took charge of the power of Kunlun, the fairies in the Kunlun Mountains did not dare to rebel. They were dissatisfied, but they had to admit that she made this move very quickly. As a gift Only kindness and empathy between the giver and the recipient is a bad move."
"What I missed is that these two female officials were able to see the situation clearly, analyze the pros and cons, and dare to break and stand. . ”
With such power, and at the same time luring them with benefits and suppressing them with power, these people of Kunlun, who had been ignorant and comfortable for many years, suddenly saw their situation and situation clearly.
