Everything requires trade-offs. Give up playing and gain knowledge, give up comfort and gain ability...
You can be born with nothing, but you can always find a place for yourself by making choices.
Of course, different lives have different fortunes, and the things that need to be chosen are also different.
Zhang Yan doesn't need to make a choice on the scale of spiritual veins, he just needs to choose. Even on the road to spiritual practice, he was making choices without really making any trade-offs. This was because his background and luck were enough to support him to "want them all."
But Emperor Yang Sheng's position and the problems he encountered were not so simple. Yang Sheng had to constantly hesitate between choices.
Two days have passed since the face-to-face negotiation between the Haoyue Demon Kingdom and Yang Sheng. Yang Sheng still hadn't made a decision in his mind.
In fact, the request given by the Haoyue Demon Kingdom this time did not touch the bottom line of the human nation like the previous one. It was not in the category of "must not agree".
But despite the changes, there are still extremely high risks for Nanyuan Kingdom. It comes from the inability to trust the demon clan, and also comes from his own reputation in the human kingdom.
According to the proposal of the Haoyue Demon Kingdom, they can regularly enter the Xiyuan County of the Nanyuan Kingdom from the dark, and accept the accompanying soldiers of the Nanyuan Kingdom. The quantity can also be limited, and the period is five years.
Even the strength of the demon soldiers who enter the territory of Nanyuan Kingdom can be restricted, and these demon clans can agree. And in contrast, the Monster Clan promises that in the past five years, the Monster Clan will never make any form of attack on any border of Nanyuan Kingdom. In addition, it can also provide Nanyuan Kingdom with a certain amount of medicinal materials and other materials that are unique to the demon clan.
Even the "vision" and "catastrophe" mentioned by the monster tribe also bluntly stated that they would do their best to help Nanyuan Kingdom resist it. When asked how to share the time if there are treasures or harvests, the demon clan's statement is even more direct: "Everyone who sees it will have a share. Whatever you can get based on your ability is as little as possible. The demon clan all agrees."
This strategy hit Yang Sheng's head heavily.
There are both good and bad, and they are distinct.
If nothing else is said in five years, Nanyuan Kingdom can get at least five years of opportunity to recuperate and recuperate, which is almost good news that has never happened since the founding of the country. In the past, 90% of Nanyuan Kingdom's border troubles were consumed by the Haoyue Demon Kingdom. Countless financial, material and human resources have been wasted. Once he can cultivate himself, Yang Sheng believes that Nanyuan Kingdom's national power will skyrocket rapidly. Not to mention that there is still a large amount of monster clan-specific resources that can be traded every year.
The price paid is almost non-substantial, and more on the level of Nanyuan Kingdom's "reputation". As well as the possibility that the demon clan that needs to be wary of suddenly goes back on its promise and resorts to evil tricks.
If your reputation is bad, other human nations will stop playing with you. How can you develop if you are left alone for a long time? It is also very likely to become the target of a group attack.
Not only was Yang Sheng in a dilemma, all the senior officials in Nanyuan Kingdom were facing the same dilemma.
However, Yang Sheng inadvertently found a solution to this entanglement: his thirteenth son Yang Rui.
To be precise, it should be Zhang Yan who was standing behind Yang Rui. Yang Sheng suddenly thought of a solution to the current dilemma of Nanyuan Kingdom.
Yang Rui has also been very anxious recently. It has been more than three months since he came to Yuanding Imperial City, and it has already exceeded the three months he expected to make a round trip. Even if he sets off to return to Langyuan now, it will take more than a month longer than he expected. . And now it looks like he won't be able to leave just yet.
Missing the cultivation atmosphere of Langyuan City is one thing, but being anxious to go back and see the level of construction of the mountain gate is another. In addition, Yang Rui's life in the palace was not pleasant at all. It's even uncomfortable to say.
What makes Yang Rui uncomfortable in the palace are the royal brothers. Almost every day, one or several royal brothers come to see him for various reasons. All the tugging and tugging has the same meaning: I am very good to you, I am your brother, will you stand by my side in the future?
Compared with Concubine Mingying who was very happy and happy about her son being favored by the princes, Yang Rui himself became more and more disgusted with this kind of thing.
They obviously don't like me and have never been nice to me, but now they want me to help them calm down the situation. These royal brothers are really too thick-skinned! Yang Rui thought.
Regarding the word thick-skinned, Yang Rui used to think that it only applied to Brother Shitou. Now it seems that compared to Brother Shitou, his royal brothers are obviously much thicker-skinned.
"I want to return to Corridor Yuancheng." Yang Rui passed this sentence to his father. Then Yang Sheng, who was still anxious about the demon clan, suddenly turned his attention to Yang Rui and discovered a possibility that could solve the current trouble.
Still in the small garden behind Qinzheng Hall. Yang Sheng saw his thirteenth son with a smile.
"My son has met my father!" Yang Rui stood up after paying homage.
"I heard that you have been very unhappy in the palace recently?"
"...Erchen is just a little worried that he will miss the practice content after being away from the teacher for too long, so he is a little anxious." Yang Rui did not admit it.
But what kind of emperor would Yang Sheng be if he couldn't even control the situation in the palace? But there are some things that he acquiesces to. So he smiled and said: "It's normal that you are unhappy in the palace. Originally, the palace was not a place for living. This is the key to running the country. There are too many less soft things. Naturally, it cannot be compared. So free and comfortable in Langyuan City.

If you think about it, you have been away from Mr. Zhang for a long time. It has been almost half a year since you came and went. Time flies by really fast. When you came back, my birthday had not yet arrived, and the envoys from the demon country had not yet entered the country. Nowadays, there are so many disturbances but the changes are so overwhelming!
well......"
With a sigh, even the young Yang Rui could feel an extremely tired feeling inside.
How did the little boy know that his father would play tricks in front of him? Even if you understand it, how can you compare to a figure like Yang Sheng who is the leader of a country?
So Yang Rui asked worriedly: "Father, is the demon clan going to cause trouble again? It's really hateful! This time the child will go back to help his father and ask the teacher. If so, if possible, the teacher will give him a gift." The means are used by Nanyuan Kingdom!"
It was only then that Yang Rui finally made up his mind. He still couldn't watch his father look sad all day long, nor could he watch the monsters wreaking havoc. He finally tilted his mind towards the royal family.
However, Yang Sheng's main purpose at this time was not to seek the law, he had other ideas.
"Hahaha, my son is indeed worried about the people of the world and cannot see them suffering innocently! Don't worry, my son! If Mr. Zhang is willing to give some advice, Nanyuan Kingdom will definitely not be stingy!
In addition, the bone-strengthening pill I heard you mention is specially refined for warriors, so you cultivators won’t be able to use it, right? "
