After leaving Qi Fuzhou for a while, She Chu returned to Fusang Palace with a heavy heart.
Wu Lingxing had been waiting patiently all afternoon. When he saw She Chu coming from a distance, a pair of cold stars suddenly lit up. When She Chu came closer, he saw her listless look, and he couldn't help but frown, and said angrily: "The Presbytery is giving you trouble again?"
"As long as you don't cause me any trouble, I won't have any trouble."
She Chu sighed and looked up at Wu Lingxing. It was also near night, and Wu Lingxing was shrouded in half-dark light, and wore heavy and complicated attire. The shadows stretched long between them, giving She Chu the illusion that they were far away.
The distance between them is indeed very far.
Master and slave, just one word separated the whole Fusang Golden Palace, and they changed from relatives to master and servant.
However, She Chu also understood that the change in status between them and the distance created by the rules were not Wu Lingxing's original intention.
Unlike Qi Fuzhou, who naturally looks down on everyone and can't hide his smile, Wu Ling is more like a kindling that is forced into a wooden box. From the outside, he sits in a high position, rejects everyone, and is harder to approach than Qi Fuzhou - but you know that there is fire in the wooden box, and you also understand that the fire will not be able to contain him one day. The reason why he is still willing to stay alone in it is because she is inlaid on the outside of the box and the lock is Yu Jing, and he is reluctant to hurt them.
The reason why he kept that little distance was also for them.
Although She Chu was not a good person, he did not mistake his good intentions for bad intentions.
Wu Lingxing followed Yu Jing's wish and became the Demon Lord, so she worked for Wu Lingxing for three hundred years. After careful calculation, she didn't owe Wu Lingxing anything.
So she took a step forward, crushed the shadow blocking the two of them, and made a test sentence first: "Azhou is here, and he has brought a lot of novelties. It seems that he is living well in the fairyland."
Wulingxing didn't have as many things to do as She Chu, so he was well aware of Qi Fenzhou's visit today. There was no emotion on his face, he just raised his eyelids and said: "Of course he is doing well. Didn't the latest news record about the heaven you handed me mention that the little prince of the sky admires him very much and wants to be him? Brother? With the sky supporting him, you no longer have to worry about him being embarrassed by the heaven because of his experience growing up in the earth."
She Chu was first surprised that Wu Lingxing would also read the memorial she handed over. After a moment, she realized that the important point now was not whether he read political affairs, but Yan Qing's affairs.
Seeing that Wu Lingxing's attitude towards Qi Fuzhou had not changed, she continued to test: "Yes, A Zhou is now the real master of Danxiao Palace. You also know that because of the barrier between the two worlds, the news that can be sent back is carefully crafted. It’s limited, and we know very little about the heavenly realm. When A Zhou comes, I naturally want to talk more with him.”
Wu Lingxing nodded obligingly, listening absentmindedly.
Seeing this, She Chu went a step further: "What a coincidence, A Zhou told me that their Danxiao Palace has recently recruited a group of female nuns, many of whom are beauties. He even assured me that some of them can even Comparable to Yan Qing!"
She Chu kept staring at Wu Lingxing and found that after hearing this sentence, his expression became alert, knowing that he was unlikely to succeed if he continued to speak. However, having said it this far, it would be a pity to give up at this point. So she still expressed her ultimate goal with the last glimmer of hope.
"Look," She Chu said earnestly, "If you like people like the God Clan, will the one in Danxiao Palace work?"
"Azhou said he wouldn't stop it."
For some reason, as soon as she said these words, She Chu felt that the sky had turned dark instantly and the wind in Fusang Palace became colder.
She Chu rubbed his arms and then went to see Wu Lingxing's reaction.
Wu Lingxing's face was dim in the corridor. It took a long time before she heard him gritting his teeth and saying, "Do you think I am you? Chestnut cake and almond cake are fine without it."
She Chu: "..." This was a bit rude.
Considering Wu Lingxing's temperament, she patiently continued to talk to him: "I'm not asking you to eat almond cake. What I mean is that Yan Qing is not worthy of you."
Wu Lingxing looked at her with dark eyes, half-smiling for a long time, and said in a strange tone: "Oh, if Yan Qing is not worthy of me, then who do you think is?"
She Chu: "..." You don't think I am saying that you are not worthy of Yan Qing.
She couldn't say this to his face. She Chu knew very well that Wu Lingxing was crazy and unreasonable. She silently recited "He is the demon lord and cannot take action" several times before she could bear it and slowly gave Wu Lingxing a name.
"Wang Jiyan." She Chu said frankly, "Yu Jing has discussed with the Council of Elders before. They want to marry the emperor of the human race for you and win over the human world. After all, her great-grandmother is Qi Fuzhou's cousin. My cousin Sister, she is also close to us."
Seeing Wu Lingxing's face getting more and more ugly, She Chu had to shut up.
Wu Lingxing's fists clenched loudly, and She Chu even wondered if he would demolish Fusang Palace if he wasn't the one standing in front of him at this moment.
He said with a cold face: "She Chu, I'm not joking about this. You'd better stop joking with me."
Fortunately, he still cared about She Chu's identity and didn't say anything unpleasant.
Realizing that Wu Lingxing was resolute, She Chu no longer asked for trouble.
She brushed off the previous topic and said to Wu Lingxing: "Azhou is waiting for us to have dinner together. We will mention this later. Go to the Golden Wind Palace first and don't keep him waiting."
In the Jinfeng Palace, all the maids retreated. The three people at the table each had their own thoughts, and none of them tasted the meal.
The first person to put down his chopsticks was Qi Fuzhou. He took the handkerchief and wiped the corners of his empty mouth, glanced at the wandering Wu Lingxing and the taciturn She Chu, chuckled, and said slowly: "What's going on today? Neither of them welcome me." Are you a guest? Fortunately, I brought you a gift."
Wu Lingxing's attitude towards Yan Qing was too firm, and She Chu really had no intention of eating. Qi Fuzhou broke the silence, seemingly trying to save the situation, but in fact he was making fun of She Chu's dilemma. And the trick he gave She Chuzhi before - it wasn't called a trick at all.
She Chu glanced at Qi Fuzhou and thought to himself: To make Yan Qing like Wu Lingxing, this method needs to be kept secret. As one of the people who knew her best in the world, Qi Fuzhou knew very well that under the control of the Elders' House, she simply did not have the right manpower.
The more leisurely Qi Fuzhou smiled now, the more she felt that he was watching the fun.
After her father passed away, apart from Yu Jing, she only had two relatives and friends in the world, Qi Fanzhou and Wu Lingxing. It's better now. One of these two people is causing trouble for her, and the other is standing on the shore watching jokes, but neither of them has grown into a good person.
She Chu also had a temper. When her temper came to a head, she immediately put down her chopsticks and replied to Qi Fuzhou: "Don't pretend to be a fool. You clearly know that I have no appetite for food."
Qi Fuzhou was not angry at She Chu's attitude at all. He even nodded in approval, and then asked Wu Lingxing: "Demon Lord, your Seven Killers are in such a bad mood, do you have a solution?"
If it were normal for him to have a conflict with She Chu and Qi Fuzhou come to stop him, Wu Lingxing would take the steps and get off in a polite manner.
Although he likes to get into trouble, he has always had a good attitude towards admitting his mistakes.
But this time, he finally made up his mind after eating the weight. Even after Qi Fuzhou handed over his words, he just stiffened his neck and said: "I told her to leave this matter alone. Just let me and the gang Let’s talk about it directly! Even if our talks fall apart, it won’t affect her position.”
She Chu got angry when she heard this, not to mention this was the second time she heard Wu Lingxing say such bastard words today.
Qi Fuzhou was not an outsider, so she didn't have to worry about it. She choked out on the spot: "How many years have you been the Demon Lord? It's almost three hundred years. Three hundred years, you can read one of the memorials I handed you even a day. You should also know that the earth cannot lose another demon lord! The collapse of you and the Council of Elders will only make the heaven applaud. Have you ever thought about the future of Siyou? Have you ever thought about the demon country and the ghost clan that will be affected by this matter? Have you changed your attitude towards Siyou?"
Wu Lingxing was speechless by her.
He didn't like political affairs, so just to help him take care of them, Yu Jing overcame all difficulties and let She Chu sit in the position of Qishaozun, so that he could be qualified to serve as regent for him. Otherwise, with the 30,000 brave men of the Rakshasa clan, how could they not choose a more suitable and more convincing Seven Killers?
He knew that She Chu had been helping him share responsibilities all these years, so he never dared to refute when she scolded him for being lazy.
But today, after all, Qi Fuzhou was here. He needed to save some face and at least pretend to be majestic.
So he said: "Without the Presbytery, there would be no collapse."
She Chu was stunned.
This is the second time today that Wu Lingxing has revealed his murderous intention towards the Elders' House.
To be honest, She Chu also hates these old immortals. But Siyou's Elder's House is the "divided world" of the four clans that Siyou's founding master should assist him in establishing the country. Siyou Kingdom is mainly composed of She Chu's mother clan Rakshasa, Yaksha who was born from Yu Jing, Shura who has a close relationship with Yaksha, and later became the mother clan of successive demon lords. Since the seventh generation demon lord also served as the clan leader, he became the representative of Wu. The Mahou clan of the clan is composed of these four clans.
The forces of the four tribes are intertwined and restrain each other. The establishment of the Council of Elders was indeed very effective in restricting the absolute rights of the Demon Lord in the early stage, and contributed to Siyou's prosperity. But as time passed and Siyou sat on the throne of the earth for a long time, the original mutual restraint structure began to decay.
From the tragedy of the previous demon lord and Princess Lianyan, to the constant constraints she felt from the Elder's House after She Chu became regent - in her heart, she actually wanted the Elder's House to disappear in Siyou more than Wu Lingxing. .
But it's not the time yet.
Both she and Wu Lingxing are too weak. Excluding the Elder House at this time, they alone cannot stabilize the Siyou clan. Not to mention anything else, but her mother clan, Rakshasa, has always been very critical of Wu Lingxing's long-term reluctance to get married and have children, and they have even insinuated her many times, asking her to think of something.
What can you think of?
When Wu Lingxing was trapped in Fusang Palace and went crazy, She Chu was scheming in Jinfeng Palace and the Elder's House. After three hundred years, a fool can become more thoughtful.
Unlike other people in the world, the four nobles who share the world with the Demon Lord respect the Wushi bloodline, but they may not respect the Demon Lord himself.
They didn't like Wu Lingxing. The way they looked at him always reminded She Chu of the way a soldier looked at his sharpest sword. Even if the sword is too sharp and they show nothing but awe and fear towards the sword - then they are just looking at a sword, not a living person, let alone its owner.
However, Wulinxing is the last member of the Wushi bloodline, and the ancient covenant restricts them from obeying this master whom they despise. Therefore, these talents always want Wu Lingxing to get married and have children as soon as possible. Only when a new Wushi bloodline is born can they hope to choose the master they want again.
She Chu is only half Rakshasa, and her father is from the human race. Therefore, she does not have such a strong desire to admire Wushi. Between Wushi and Wulingxing, she cares more about Wulinxing.
It is precisely because of this that over the years, as long as Wu Lingxing expresses his unwillingness, no matter how difficult it is, she will turn down the marriage contract intended by the Elders for him. It can be said that if he hadn't fallen in love with Yan Qing this time, She Chu would not even mention Wang Jiyan again.
However, compared with the seriousness of the matter of snatching the bride, She Chu felt that it would be better to help the elders marry Wang Jiyan on Wu Lingxing's head!
At least if he gives birth to an heir, he may be murdered, but he is not certain to die. But if he really commits the crime of kidnapping a bride or fighting with the Presbyterian Council over it - starting a war, whether it is a foreign war or a civil war, is a visible future!
She Chu stared at Wu Lingxing in silence, expressing regret for his soft-heartedness at that time.
If she had been cruel, the children in Wulingxing might have called her aunt!
No - is it still too late for her to force Wu Lingxing to marry Wang Jiyan?
She Chu's sudden silence obviously made Wu Lingxing a little uneasy. Wu Lingxing looked at Qi Fuzhou, his eyes clearly asking for help.
Qi Fuzhou glanced at She Chu, whose eyes were wide open, as if he knew that She Chu was thinking about something unreliable, and sighed:
"Fortunately, the marriage with the human race has not been decided. This matter is just a small matter between the two races. If the marriage with the human race is arranged, the old story of Princess Lianyan will really happen again."
Qi Fuzhou's long words made She Chu calm down quickly.
Yes, if he was engaged to a human race, Wu Lingxing's current state showed that he would regret the engagement. At that time, it will no longer be a problem between the heaven and the earth. It will have to be a joint effort between the heaven and the human world to clarify the issue.
Seeing that She Chu had calmed down, Qi Fuzhou said to Wu Lingxing again: "I brought a sword for you. It was made by a famous swordsmith in the sky and imitated the Juntian sword. Although it is not as good as the original sword, it still has three points of charm. .Won’t you go and have a look?”
Wu Ling is a martial artist, and he likes magical weapons the most. As soon as he heard that Qi Fuzhou brought him an imitation of the Juntian Sword, he immediately wanted to leave the table and take a look.
Before leaving the table, he glanced at She Chu.
She Chu felt tired, so he simply waved his hand and said, "You go ahead, A Zhou and I will have a chat again."
Wu Lingxing warned: "After we finish talking, go to Fusang Palace and I will try the sword for you."
She Chu: "..."
She Chu looked at his heartless look and nodded helplessly.
Wu Lingxing left in high spirits. Qi Fuzhou confirmed that he had left, and then turned around and said to She Chu: "I advised you when I left the Demon Realm back then. Wuling Xingzhi is no longer in Siyou, so why don't you become the Demon Lord and he become the Seven Killers. Your mother also has Ushi blood, doesn’t she?”
