674. Chapter 674 Northwest Situation (1/2)
Jia Ma Empire, Jia Ma Royal Family.
Haibodong, who had been staying in the Black Corner Domain for a long time and had not returned for a long time, was lying unceremoniously on his side on Jia Xingtian's sofa. He supported his cute little face with one hand and gnawed on an apple happily.
Jia Xingtian and Yaoyue were sitting on the sofa opposite, reading Yao Ye's letters that Hai Bodong had brought back to them.
Every once in a while, Haibodong would come back with Miter's caravan for a few days, and it would be a convenient thing to help Yaoye bring back the letters.
"Really. This girl, after staying there for several years, really doesn't plan to come back? Fortunately, Xiao Ling has been helping me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to do this anymore."
Jia Xingtian looked at the contents of the letter in his hand. Although he was complaining, his eyes were clearly filled with relief.
To be honest, after breaking through Douzun and extending his lifespan, although Jiaxingtian has been muttering about wanting to retire, in fact, he is no longer so urgent about abdicating the throne. Now, although Yao Ye has been staying in the Black Corner Territory and will not come back, He did not dawdle around, but practiced and cultivated his leadership ability all the time.
Judging from the letters and the current situation in the Black Corner Territory, Yao Ye's ability to govern is much stronger than before. This kind of practical ability cannot be learned by listening to Xiao Ling's teachings every day.
Moreover, in the past few years, with the cooperation of Yaoye, Yafei and Yuan Yi, the Black Corner Region has become a well-known central commercial area in the northwest continent.
Since the Izumo Empire, Luoyan Empire and Mulan Empire were destroyed for unknown reasons, various small countries in the northwest continent have also taken this opportunity to develop as much as possible, and the Black Corner Region as a neutral zone has undoubtedly become their recognized trading circle. The development is very prosperous.
As for the rise of those small countries, Jiaxingtian had been worried before, and even had the idea of sending troops to kill them, but he was dissuaded by Xiao Yu's advice, and the reason for the dissuasion made Jiaxingtian unable to refute.
The current Jiama Empire is too powerful in the northwest continent.
Previously, there were still three empires, Izumo, Luoyan and Mulan, that could compete. However, since these three empires disappeared overnight, the entire northwest continent was dominated by the Gama Empire.
It is no exaggeration to say that with the current military strength of the Gama Empire, it would be no problem to directly send troops to wipe out all the small surrounding countries.
But if you really do that, that is the most dangerous thing.
According to Xiao Ling's words, prosperity must inevitably lead to decline, and excess strength often leads to self-destruction.
For the current Jia Ma Empire, no matter how small the surrounding countries are, they are still outsiders. It is precisely because they are outsiders that the punishment genius will have the idea of raising an army.
But what has to be admitted is that their existence has invisibly reduced a lot of internal troubles in the now prosperous Jia Ma Empire.
If the Jia Ma Empire really becomes the only country in the northwest, the final result will definitely be civil strife. The only difference is when it will happen.
Suppression by force can be suppressed for a while, but it is absolutely impossible to suppress it for a while. Even high-pressure ruling methods will make the empire collapse more quickly. Once some people in a strong empire have the problem of "they can do a better job in leading the country" Thoughts, it will be over sooner or later.
But it will be different if there are still foreign enemies. As long as foreign enemies still exist, people with different intentions will consider this aspect, because you have to face not only internal enemies, but also external enemies that can come at any time.
In this way, not all dissent can be suppressed, but at least the vast majority can be suppressed.
What's more, with the current situation of the Jiama Empire, there is no need to compete with those small countries for resources. It is better to attack with a tolerant policy and establish the Jiama Empire as the middleman of many empires in the northwest. Through peaceful dialogue, all disputes must be resolved by Jiama first. The Mar Empire came to coordinate.
Doing so will undoubtedly put the entire northwest city's voice in the hands of the Jiama Empire. As for the price paid, it is just some insignificant resources that need to be paid for Huairou.
Tough strength without a soft attitude will sooner or later be overthrown.
A soft attitude without strong strength will be devoured sooner or later.
Only by possessing both a gentle attitude and strong strength can the Gama Empire survive in the long term.
Now, the strong power of the Jiama Empire is already available. As for showing a soft attitude to other small countries in the northwest, it is also the current national policy set by Jiaxingtian with the help of Xiao Ling. Yaoyue has also been watching from the side. Assistance, progress is going very smoothly so far.
"It's true. That girl Xiao Ling, the longer she is exposed to her, the more terrifying she becomes."
Jia Xingtian put down the letter in his hand and sighed with emotion. He really felt that it was a huge pity that Xiao Ling was not born in the emperor's family.
"That's right. I feel that the teacher was born for politics. I have studied with the teacher for several years, but I still feel that I am still far behind."
Yaoyue also nodded in agreement. As the second princess of the royal family, Yaoyue had seen a lot of politicians since she was a child, but she was still frightened by Xiao Ling's methods.
The really scary thing about Xiao Ling's methods is that you know her intentions, but you can't find any reason to refuse.
Except when necessary, Xiao Ling has always openly played tricks with you, forcing you to accept it after weighing the pros and cons. The end result is that you can only watch yourself fall into her plan step by step, without even thinking about it. There is no thought of resistance.
Jia Xingtian could only sigh about this. Fortunately, Xiao Ling's hometown was in the Jia Ma Empire.
"Grandpa, I'm going back to my room."
Yaoyue said this, Jia Xingtian waved his hand lightly, then Yaoyue gathered the letters on the table and stood up to walk out. As soon as she opened the door, she suddenly saw a figure standing outside the door, and her eyes were a little surprised.
"Senior Yunshan, why are you here?"
"Huh?"
Jia Xingtian turned his head, and Hai Bodong also glanced away slightly, and saw Yunshan standing at the door, which made Jia Xingtian's expression slightly puzzled.
"This is really strange, why did you come down?"
In the past, I always went up to find Yunshan. When did I see Yunshan come down to find me?
"Nothing, Xiao Yan brought someone back, I was not comfortable staying upstairs, so I came down to sit for a while." Yunshan said softly, and sat down next to Jia Xingtian, looking at Hai Bodong lying on the sofa in front of him, "You are back too."
"Yeah, I just came back today."
Hai Bodong responded by taking a bite of an apple, and Yaoyue's eyes lit up when she heard from Yunshan that Xiao Yan was back, but she didn't say anything, turned around and put the letter on the desk, and quickly brewed a cup of tea and handed it to Yunshan.
"Senior Yunshan, please."
"Ah, thank you."
Yunshan reached out to take it and took a sip, and Yaoyue, who was standing beside him, turned around and left the room after handing over the tea, gently closing the door.
After the door was closed, Hai Bodong frowned and looked at Yunshan.
"You just said Xiao Yan is back?"
"Ah, now he is a five-star Dou Zun."
"This kid is still as evil as ever."
Hai Bodong twitched his lips, but he had long been prepared for Xiao Yan's extraordinary ability, so he was not speechless, but he still curled his lips in dissatisfaction.
I just reached the two-star Dou Zun with the help of the elixirs from the Black Horn Domain and the new skills, but this kid's level jumped faster than mine. When I was a Dou Huang, Xiao Yan was just a little Dou Shi, and it has been less than ten years and he has surpassed me.
Genius, really have to be admired.
At this time, Yunshan took a sip of tea and glanced at Jia Xingtian.
"Do you still remember Feng Qing'er who came back with Medusa last time?" "Of course, the eldest lady of the Tian Yao Huang clan."
Jia Xingtian nodded lightly. Hai Bodong was stunned when he heard the four words Tian Yao Huang clan, and sat up and asked.
"Which Tian Yao Huang tribe?"
"It was the little girl from the Tian Yao Huang tribe that we met when Xiao Yan encountered trouble in the Black Horn Region and we went to help."
Yunshan helped Hai Bodong recall, and Hai Bodong's eyes suddenly became clear. Then he took out an apple and asked while chewing it.
"That girl, remember, what happened?"
"She and Xiao Yan are married, and they have a child."
Poof! ! !
Hai Bodong couldn't help but spit out the apple he had just bitten. Fortunately, Yunshan, who was opposite him, reacted quickly and dodged it by turning sideways. Then Hai Bodong roared.
"What the hell did you just say? That kid kidnapped the eldest lady of the Tian Yao Huang tribe?!"
Hai Bodong wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of disbelief, while Jia Xingtian glanced at him with some ridicule.
"Hai Bodong, your reaction is too big, isn't it? Isn't it just the eldest lady of the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan?" Jia Xingtian leaned on the sofa and waved his hand calmly, "Xiao Yan is so young and has reached the strength of a five-star Dou Zun. How can he be more than enough to match the eldest lady of the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan?"
"."
Hai Bodong's eyes trembled wildly, looking at Jia Xingtian in disbelief and contempt, but he did not refute, while Jia Xingtian picked up the teacup and looked at Yunshan and asked.
"So, who did you just say came to make you so uncomfortable?"
"It's Feng Qing'er's aunt."
Yunshan's indifferent answer made Jia Xingtian laugh.
"Ha~ Yunshan, how come you are the same as Haibodong? Have you been living in comfort for too long? You still feel uncomfortable when outsiders come to your home ground. How can you justify this?"
Jia Xingtian patted Yunshan's shoulder mockingly, but Yunshan did not respond. Haibodong glanced at Jia Xingtian, who was mocking him, and asked Yunshan with a serious look.
"So, what is the strength of her aunt? Although I have a rough idea in my mind."
If it were before, Haibodong, who lived in the northwest continent, might have the same reaction as Jia Xingtian. The Tian Yao Huang clan was very famous, but in their cognition, the peak of Dou Zun was the best.
However, Haibodong had been in the Black Horn Region for so many years, and after being in contact with various intelligence networks, he had a deep understanding of the power of the Tian Yao Huang clan in Zhongzhou. Only then did he realize how ignorant he was before.
Since Feng Qing'er is the eldest daughter of the Tian Yao Huang clan, then as her aunt, her identity must be even more terrifying.
Hearing Hai Bodong's question, Yunshan glanced at Jia Xingtian who had just taken a sip of tea, and then raised his hand to turn his face outside in Jia Xingtian's puzzled eyes, and then slowly answered Hai Bodong's question.
"According to Xiao Yan himself, it is the late stage of two-star Dou Sheng."
Poof! ! ! ! !
The tea that Jia Xingtian had not swallowed in his mouth suddenly sprayed out. He finally understood why Yunshan turned his face away.
Immediately, Jia Xingtian turned his head back and looked at Yunshan in horror.
"What the hell did you just say? Late stage of two-star Dou Sheng? Are you kidding me?!"
Dou Sheng, the powerful man who only exists in legends here, is now in Yunlan Sect?
When Hai Bodong saw Jia Xingtian's horrified expression, he felt very comfortable in his heart, and immediately returned the ridicule he had just made to himself.
"Ha~ weren't you very relaxed and content just now? Why are you so frightened now?" Hai Bodong then sat on the sofa with his short legs crossed and said with a serious face: "I used to be the same as you, I thought that the heavenly demon The Phoenix Clan is just a well-known Warcraft family. However, after I stayed in the Black Horn Territory for a few years, I learned that the Celestial Demon Phoenix Clan is one of the three major Warcraft families in Zhongzhou, and one of the very few ethnic groups at the top of this continent. "
"To put it bluntly, the Jia Ma Empire that you are so proud of running for so many years is probably no different from a grain of sand in the eyes of others."
Haibodong made such a cruel and realistic statement, which made Jia Xingtian fall into deep silence.
After a long time, he seemed to come to his senses and looked at Yunshan in shock.
"Wait a minute. So Xiao Yan abducted the eldest lady of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan here?"
"exactly."
Yunshan responded calmly while holding the teacup, causing Jia Xingtian to slap his forehead suddenly.
This kid, from the time he first met him, has been refreshing his outlook on life.
"What about Feng Qing'er's aunt's question about Xiao Yan?" She was halfway through asking, when Jia Xingtian thought of the answer himself and waved his hand, "Just pretend I didn't ask. If it's not resolved properly, you won't be able to get off."
Although this incident was indeed shocking, fortunately, being the leader of the country for so many years was not in vain, and Jia Xingtian soon adjusted his mentality.
However, before they could stabilize, Yunshan said something that almost broke the hearts of Jia Xingtian and Hai Bodong.
"By the way, Medusa's daughter was also born, with Douzong-level strength."
puff! ! ! ! !
Once again, Jia Xingtian and Hai Bodong spat out the tea and apples from their mouths respectively, their eyebrows trembling wildly, and their hearts almost unbearable.
What the hell, we worked so hard before to break through to Douzong, but the daughter of Medusa and Xiao Yan reached this level right after she was born? What a bullshit!
This world is unfair, but it can’t be unfair to this extent, right? !
"Ahhh! I won't listen anymore! If you continue to listen to me, you will die! I'm going back to Miter Auction House!"
Haibodong was so angry that he threw the unfinished apple in his hand to the ground, got off the sofa and walked out the door angrily, when Yunshan suddenly spoke and stopped him.
"etc."
"What for? Is there anything else exciting?"
Haibodong turned to glare at Yunshan in displeasure, and Yunshan answered softly while holding tea.
"Xiao Yan just asked me where you have been recently. He seems to hope that you can go to Zhongzhou with him."
"Huh? Want me to go to Zhongzhou with him? Why should I go?"
Yunshan shrugged lightly and said.
"It seems that I want you to become a teacher?"
After Yun Shan finished speaking, it was a long time before Hai Bodong opened his mouth with a questioning look on his face.
".Huh?" (End of chapter)
