In this way, Temujin and Elsis started a weekly relationship, and they agreed to meet every seven days. The person who needs to run errands, of course, is Temujin. With his cultivation base, he can move thousands of miles away by moving with breath to lock the position of Elsis, and then cast a magic similar to shrinking the ground, and rush to the meeting.
When we met, there was nothing else to do, just play. Elsis always had a way to find out some weird games, fairy tales, and pestered Temujin to play, or tell stories, or Putting paper kites, throwing tops, skipping grids, and drawing to live a life of jokes and laughter.
Each time the two people meet, Elsis will tell a story and give him a flower at the same time. This is a courtesy in the Principality of Paroch, sending flowers to pray for luck.
Elsis is a girl with a girl’s character, she is fun, but she is in the palace during her life, this is not good, that is not good, it is rare to catch a playmate, of course, we must have fun and enjoyment, as for her wish to learn martial arts well. , Has long been thrown out of the sky under Elsis's theory of leisure and entertainment.
Temujin was also content with this kind of exchange. In this kind of exchange, he found a lot of things that he was about to lose. He cherished the warmth he felt so far, so he didn't want to change it.
In order to avoid unnecessary disputes, the two had an agreement. When playing, they did not mention national affairs or inter-ethnic hatred. They were just a pair of fun friends.
However, although Elsis intervened unintentionally, it also affected some of Temujin's actions intentionally or unintentionally, allowing many human beings to escape a catastrophe and save their lives in the scourge of war. If intentionally, if unintentionally, Temujin deliberately restricted the demons, not to approach Parochi Principality, others do not know, the glory of the three sages added to this.
It’s just that when we get along happily, there are still unpleasant times. Whenever the demons have a moderate-scale war, or Temujin’s personal conquest, which destroys a certain city, Elsis does not say anything, but always He would be unhappy all day, and even angered Temujin. For this reason, Temujin was always cautious and did not dare to talk about related topics in front of Elsis.
"Hahaha, it's up to you again." Temu was really upset to see Elsisi overjoyed. Today, Elsie Ribbon came with a set of combined wooden towers, which can be slowly dismantled, but if one of them is dismantled with a little more manpower, the entire wooden tower will collapse, and it will be considered a loss. This is a test of control. , A game of balance.
After playing for a long time, Temu was really absent-minded. He has lost a few games in a row. There is no reason for him, but he will set out tomorrow to crusade a small country that had rebelled the day before. Although this is just a small effort, if Elsis learns, she must have a temper with her boss again.
I was annoyed. I didn't feel too much force under my hand, and the whole wooden tower was scattered into pieces.
"Ahaha, Xiaotie lost again." Elsis clapped her hands and laughed.
Tie Muzhen was already in a bad mood, and gave her another smile, anger started from his heart, and he slapped the building blocks to dust with a palm of his hand, even "touching" the boss's pit on the ground.
"Oh! Excuse me..." Amazed by his failure, Temujin just wanted to apologize and said "pop".
"Hey!" It was Elsis who called the pain. She gave Temujin a slap, but the whole right hand shook the Celestial Mojin with pain.
"Man, if you have anything, you should work hard to solve it, instead of throwing your anger on these dead things." Elsis shook her hand and sternly said: "If you do it again, no matter how good we are , I will hit you like this."
"Elsisi" Temujin stroked his face, speechless, hitting him after he was born, and after he was successful in cultivating the devil power, no one dared to be disrespectful, let alone slap his mouth, this sudden slap in the face , Why not teach him to be dumbfounded.
Elsis stood up, bowed her head and paced for a long while, and sighed quietly: "Why do people always fight and kill and can't live together?"
Temujin was surprised at first, and then it became clear that he frowned all night. Although he didn't say anything, Elsis wasn't a stupid person, how could he not know.
"I don't want to be like this either! If you are willing to surrender, then nothing will happen? I don't have to fight all day long." Temujin said.
"What nonsense, you are the one who launched the aggression, what reason do you have for us to surrender?" Elsis retorted immediately.
"However, our strength is relatively strong. The land of the human world should be ours!" Temujin said solemnly.
This is the ideological difference between the two races. To humans, the demons are undoubtedly evil invaders, but from the perspective of the demons, they just retrieve their own things.
The natural environment of the Demon World is extremely harsh. Tens of millions of years of hardship and survival have cultivated absolute superiority and inferiority, and the law of natural selection. The devil's attention to its own strength far exceeds everything; They respect the strong and despise the weak. Those who do not have the strength to survive should be eliminated to avoid dragging down the entire ethnic group.
In their view, a human being such a low-level race is not qualified to own such a warm and comfortable land. Therefore, the territory of the human world should belong to the demons, and they have the right to rule here. right.
Of course, the ruled party doesn’t think so. The two sides have started a five-hundred-year-long war. No, not only five hundred years, since the beginning of the mythical era, the two sides have been fighting over this. Now, the coming of the Battle of Kyushu has only surfaced this issue.
Elsis was speechless about this. She was not speechless. In fact, what she wanted to say was as high as a mountain; however, Temuzhen’s statement represented thousands of demons. The Tiemu laid down by Wannian, if you want to refute Temujin, you must be able to break this ecological law. She couldn't find any more favorable terms to refute this social elimination theory.
Suddenly, Elsis's eyes lit up, and what someone had said suddenly passed through her heart. Since it can't be refuted, it's better to do the opposite.
"Hey! Are you really stronger?" Elsis chuckled lightly, "It's true, why can't it take the whole world?"
"Well," Temujin tried to think about it, but couldn't find a good answer. There are some strong people in the human world. Their cultivation is extremely difficult to see from the demon world, but that is only For a few, in terms of overall military strength, the demons have the absolute upper hand.
The facts are also true. In the action of attacking occupied territories, the demons will win almost every battle, but often the army leaves the territory. Even if there are rebellions, the demon king’s army will run around and gallop in the flames all day long. For this reason, the hardline military faction of the demons even proposed to slaughter all other races and build an ideal country with only demons.
Of course, Temujin was not crazy to this level. It’s just that it’s not a way to fight and kill all day long. It not only wastes resources, but also makes many political constructions impossible to implement. This is very troublesome, and the demons want. It is not a broken world.
"Hey! Are you interested, I can tell you a way for the demons to successfully occupy the world, for generations to come." A sly brilliance appeared on the face of Ai Xisi, and she smiled and said: "How about it? Listen and see."
Temujin didn’t dare to answer. After many days of getting along, he knew too much about this woman’s personality. Although Elsis was smart, the ideas she put forward were often only three-pointed serious and seven-pointed nonsense. The ruling power of the demons was handed over to her to ensure that the demons would lose out and the rebels would come to the Heavenly Demon Fort.
"Why, I'm talking, do you dare not listen? Xiao Tie, you don't save face!" Ai Xisi stuck her waist, threatening fiercely, Temujin had no choice but to nod and listen, every time It's all like this. As long as the eldest loses her temper, he can only surrender.
Oh! Really shameless, he is a magnificent Great Demon King! How come...
"Very simple two words, Huairou."
"Huairou!" Temujin was taken aback for a moment, a little bit understanding.
"Yes, it's the policy of gentleness." Elsis smiled triumphantly, and said loudly: "Human beings can't be cheap. No matter how you beat or kick, they will pretend to save face. It looks great and holy, but ah! As long as you give a little sweetness, they will obediently give in."
"Don't talk nonsense, is this really the case?"
"Don't look disbelief, do you want to hurt the fragile heart of the girl?" Seeing Temujin's suspicious look, Elsis increased her expression, straightened her face, and began to quote scriptures from the age of myth. The arrangement of the stars, to the theory of space expansion, the sky is full of flowers, making the poor Great Demon King feel dizzy and can only nod his head.
"In short, that's it. The stronger the north wind blows, the tighter people pull their clothes, but the sun only needs a warm glow." Elsis shook her head and said proudly: "According to this law, we It can be known that, instead of being open and upright, it is better to secretly put a cold arrow behind your back. There is a way that a small drug can make a family and a business, and a big drug can rule the world."
"Elsis!"
"Do you have any advice?"
"You can't see your usual dull look, but you are so vicious behind you." Temujin exclaimed infinitely: "You are really the demons among the demons!"
"Oh ha ha ha, did you finally find out that this lady is smart? Hey, it doesn't seem to be right." Some do not understand whether "the demon among the demon clan" is praise or derogation, Elsis said angrily : "Stop talking nonsense, I have talked so much, do you understand or not?"
"Probably understand 30-40%"
"Do you understand?"
"Understood! I understand."
"Ah! I must be the most useless Great Demon King. How come I get to this point?" Temujin is a little sad about his situation. If others see it, he will definitely find it ridiculous. Right!
However, what Elsis said also had some truth. The tough methods have also lasted for five hundred years, and they have not yielded much results. Perhaps, as she said, the way to win the world is not the way to secure the world.
Just give it a try! First select a small group of people, and then find one or two small areas to try a soft rule. Maybe it can have unexpected results. Even if it fails, it will only be a few more rebellions. To be wiped out is nothing more than a simple effort. There is nothing to worry about, is it?
In this way, Temujin began to carry out a reform plan in doubt; it was only the result that he did not expect, even the original proposal of Elsis was unexpected.
After returning to the palace, Temujin consulted his brother, and after obtaining consent, he secretly summoned a group of ministers.
In the demons, there are fierce hardliners, and of course there are moderate conservatives. The conservatives oppose ambivalent wars and advocate peaceful methods to achieve the political ideals of racial co-prosperity and peaceful living and work. Under the power of the Mozu thinking, their propositions received little response.
Temujin asked them a lot of opinions, and after a lot of deliberation, he chose a few territories and tried to rule the people in the territories in a gentle way.
The new terms are very simple. For human beings who are willing to swear allegiance to the demons, citizenship is granted to ensure their safety; plundering is prohibited, and taxes are collected at regular intervals; unless there are special actions, humans shall not be killed arbitrarily. This is a very simple matter, or even a minimum requirement. However, in the past few hundred years, the demons have always regarded humans as low-level peoples, and they will kill at will. The Temujin law has dealt with the humans in the reserve. In other words, it is a great gospel.
In fact, after five hundred years of war, many places have also accepted the rule of the demons for hundreds of years. Rebellion is only a last resort, in order to obtain a minimum of survival. Many human beings have long given up on the extravagant hope of "returning the demons back to the demon world", and only hope that they can coexist with the ruling class and live in peace. As long as the ruling party does not need to demand too much, give them the right to survive, and maintain a basic law, they are willing to accept the rule of the demons, and Temujin's reform has just given them what they need.
As a result, within three months, the experiment obtained satisfactory results. There were obvious improvements in several places regardless of taxation or public security. People clean up their dilapidated homes and prepare to start a new life full of vigor.
This result made Temujin quite pleased, and the moderates were even more ecstatic. Subsequently, Temujin appointed a few moderate aristocrats to become cabinet members, and after several deliberations, he introduced humans who were willing to surrender into the ruling class. The scope of the protected area has expanded, more co-prosperity clauses have been promulgated, and Tiemu has truly formulated laws and carried out reforms.
Many demons are actually tired of endless fighting. After all, not so many people have self-confidence. They can become the winners of "natural selection". It is a sad thing to live in the mood of being eliminated at any time all year round. Comparing hearts to hearts, human beings who are in a disadvantaged place must also do so. Think about it!
In the lower class of demons, there are more and more "people" who silently responded to Temujin's policy, coexisting with humans in a kind manner, and gradually dissolving barriers by communicating with each other. The blood feud caused by the scourge of war cannot be forgotten, but it can be gradually forgiven in mutual exchanges. With this kind of exchange, the lower classes of the two ethnic groups have established a mode of getting along with each other that is worth looking forward to.
This result gave Temujin a lot of confidence. At the beginning of the implementation of the policy, he did not expect to have such an effect, but in this view, if such a benign development can be achieved, perhaps a way out for the common survival of the demons and mankind can be found.
Accumulated enough staff and obtained Yinzhen’s approval, Temujin greatly promoted the reform policy. However, in the process of reform, inevitable obstacles appeared. The high class of the demons were mostly hardliners. Temujin's reforms caused them to feel a sense of crisis over the loss of their power, and then rejected the new law. As a result, Tianma Castle was once again caught in the vortex of power struggle, and Temujin had to pay attention to the secret arrow behind him at the same time when facing the human resistance.
The trouble is more than that. Because Temujin reformed, many humans gave up resistance and worked hard to build a new country. This caused panic to the backbone of the original resistance. Without thinking, they unilaterally believed that Tie Mu Zhen's method is not sincere, but deceives mankind under the slogan of "peaceful coexistence" in order to disintegrate the resistance forces.
In order to "arouse the humans who are intoxicated by beautiful lies", they launched a large number of attacks to force the demons to show their cruel true colors. As a result, a lot of casualties have been increased. The reformed demons have suffered. The harm was that human beings who were willing to work for Temujin's reforms were also sentenced to be assassinated in the name of spies and mercilessly assassinated.
Such incidents provide excellent excuses for the hardliners of the demons. They strongly advocate hunting down and punishing the murderers. They believe that humans and demons cannot coexist peacefully. Human beings are just simple slaves. This low-level race can only Being enslaved should not have a further status.
The hard-line demons have a strong hand. They must not be underestimated. If this is not really necessary, they must not be shameful with them. For this reason, Temujin can't stand it and travels between the two factions all day long. At the same time, he worked hard to strengthen his strength and recruit his own team. He himself knew that the reason why he was able to sit still today was that others respected his martial arts. Therefore, no matter how busy the political affairs are, the devil's hard work, Never stopped.
Tianmo Gong is originally an emperor's martial arts, if you can supplement the practice with the emperor dragon phase, the effect will be doubled. Among the staff of Temuzhen, there are many masters of magic skills, so after everyone's discussion, they finally succeeded in strengthening the emperor's dragon qi with the hearts of the people, so that Tiemuzhen's demon skills can go a long way and make further progress.
Elsis was surprised at this change from ear to ear. She originally only hoped that between humans and demons could reduce the disaster of war and live in peace, but she also knew that this sounded too much like a myth, so Even if I said it, I didn't expect that Temu really acted for the truth, causing these changes, which was really unexpected.
Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, the two have known each other for two and three months.
At this moment, the "Sikulis Incident" that shook the mainland broke out. The cause of the incident was that there was a famine in the Principality of Syculis in the West. Temujin sent a relief envoy to this, but he did not expect that the relief envoy was attacked by mobs upon arrival, and the whole team was exhausted.
This incident has moved the entire demons. The hard-liners who have been suppressed for a long time took advantage of the situation and advocated bloodbathing the domain and avenging the dead demons. And this got Yinzhen's acquiescence.
The moderates who have achieved a considerable ruling position, although they feel hurt, but they also believe it absolutely. Many of the members of the envoy are the backbone of the moderates, as well as many high-level demons. They are all temporary choices when it comes to martial arts. Even if they encounter an army raid, they must be able to fight for it. How can they be a mere mob? Can hurt.
Furthermore, the spread of the entire incident is so fast that there are obvious traces of intelligence operations. Although there is no definite evidence, it is sufficient to prove that this matter is by no means simple. According to the underground intelligence network, the raid on the envoys, It is a resistance army headed by the three sages.
However, Temujin, as the king, was furious about the matter, contrary to his usual tolerance. As some of the dead envoys were royals and were good brothers who had a strong relationship with him, the blood feud, sorrow, resentment, and self-reproach of his relatives lost his calm judgment and could not see the whole situation. .
The characteristics of Heavenly Demon Art have the signs of being cruel and easy to kill. People who learn to have magic skills charge on the battlefield, often killing intently, unable to control themselves, and become mad at the time, and Temujin is also like this at this time. .
Efforts to reform, dedication and dedication, were actually the result of this. Thinking of the faces of his deceased relatives, Temujin was heartbroken. Since others regard his concession as cowardice, the only thing that can correct this fact Yes, only the lesson of blood.
Elsis, the ministers of the reformists, are very worried about this. If Temujin takes **** revenge, the foundation laid by the reforms over the past two years and the hearts of the people will be destroyed. The impact is too great.
For this, they tried their best to discourage, but Temujin, who was already dizzy, closed the door of self-blame, ignored the persuasion of everyone, and ordered "the one who dares to admonish to die", determined to rely on Yinzhen. 'S suggestion to wash the domain with strength to prevent such things from happening again.
