Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

She picked up the pen again and wrote beautiful handwriting on the official documents. While doing official business, she whispered:

"As for why you want to help Lu Chen like this... If anyone wants to know, just tell him that this is just my whim and has no other intentions. If the family is unwilling to help, I will not have the slightest resentment and let them Just don’t worry.”

The moment he finished speaking, big beads of sweat suddenly appeared on Li Da's face.

Although Xiao Yun's voice was as gentle as ever, he didn't feel like a spring breeze. Instead, he felt like he had fallen into an ice cave, terrifyingly cold.

"Miss, this..."

"Go back."

Xiao Yun said softly: "I still have some official business to deal with, so I won't keep you here."

Hearing this, Li Da opened his mouth subconsciously, but still did not dare to say anything, so he had no choice but to say "yes", then turned and left the tent.

After Li Da left, Xiao Yun seemed unaware and concentrated on dealing with flood control matters.

It wasn't until the afternoon that she slowly put down her pen.

"Uh... um..."

She stretched hard, then stood up, walked slowly to the tent exit, then raised her head and looked at the dark clouds gathering again in the sky, with an inexplicable look of depth on her face.

Near the dam not far away, some Yuzhou guards and Suizhou guards were still working hard, but behind them, hundreds of them had been repatriated before, but they suddenly left and returned in the past few days, and they were still there. The people brought some whole grains, fruits and vegetables, as well as fresh water rice porridge and other foods.

When the soldiers who were working took a break, they stepped forward and handed the soldiers something that they were reluctant to eat on weekdays.

What a beautiful scene where the military and civilians are in harmony with each other.

Looking at this rare scene in Daxia's thousand-year history, Xiao Yun's eyes gradually became blurred as she thought of something.

At this time, a gust of wind blew by, causing her wide official robe to stick tightly to Miaoman's body.

The people were caught off guard and were almost knocked down by the strong wind.

The soldiers from the two guards rushed to help him.

While Xiao Yun felt the strong wind that could almost knock people down, she quietly watched the scene not far away, opening and closing her red lips, murmuring words that only she could hear.

"I hope this small amount of power can bring you some help, so that this wind of benevolence and righteousness can blow farther and wider..."

Chapter 108

After the death of King Yu, the entire Yuzhou seemed to have completely calmed down.

Of course, this is only the surface.

No one knows how many undercurrents are surging crazily in the dark.

But one thing is certain, that is, after Lu Chen killed King Yu and before the empress’ decree came down, holding the sword of Ji Dao, he had already established his own power in the land of Yuzhou and Suizhou. Supreme authority.

No matter the magistrates Zhao Ping and Cui Gu, or the magistrates, county magistrates, or officials, all the local officials did not dare to discount his decrees, for fear that Lu Chen, a lunatic, would just draw his sword and kill them all. Cut off.

He dared to kill even King Yu, a first-class prince. Is there anyone in Yuzhou who he didn't dare to kill?

Not only the officialdom, but also the local aristocratic families and wealthy gentry have kept a low profile. Not to mention bullying the people, they have not even dared to go out recently. At the same time, they have ordered all the shopkeepers of their properties not to embarrass the people, so as not to embarrass the people. bring trouble to them.

Anyway, Lu Chen committed such a heinous crime and was almost certain to die, so there was no need to conflict with a dying person.

Otherwise, the other party will go crazy before dying, draw out the sword of the extreme sword and slash at it, and they will be fucked.

No one can afford to offend this kind of person now, so naturally he hides whenever he can.

For a time, both states showed a strange and peaceful look. Even the Buddhist king who was granted the title of Suizhou stayed behind closed doors, as if he did not dare to touch the evil star Lu Chen.

In this regard, Lu Chen himself was still doing what he had to do.

Anyway, no matter what the final result was, whether he was deposed by the empress, killed, or even escaped unscathed, which was basically impossible, it didn't matter to him, so naturally he didn't care.

What he did before killing King Yu is what he would do now.

Every day, I either bury my head in documents or files, or go to various places to observe the people's sentiments, make decisions to build or repair some projects that are beneficial to the people, or think hard about strategies to benefit the people. I get up earlier than a chicken and go to bed later than a dog every day, maintaining a healthy life. Overloaded work status.

But no matter how much he overspent his energy, he still looked energetic when he woke up the next day, and his exhausted energy was restored to its original state in just an hour.

The same is true today.

After Lu Chen got up, he looked at himself in the mirror, looking full and not showing signs of sluggishness at all. He couldn't help but wonder:

"Could this be a special ability that comes with time travel, right? Why does Mao's energy recover so quickly..."

Yes, another road to becoming an immortal has been cut off.

But when he realized this, he just felt depressed for a moment and didn't think about it any more.

After washing up a little, he put on his official uniform and prepared to leave the bedroom and go to Yuzhou Yamen to start his day's work.

"Good day, Governor Lu."

The moment he walked out of the room, Fu Huan's familiar voice sounded beside him.

Lu Chen nodded and said hello to her.

Every morning Fu Hua would wait outside the door and then escort him to the Yamen for work. She didn't know what she was guarding against in this huge city of Yuzhou.

He was also used to Fu Hua's presence.

At this time, looking at Fu Hua's pretty little face, Lu Chen suddenly became suspicious, and then asked casually.

"Huh? Commander Fu, are you wearing makeup?"

But they saw that Fu Hua's little face, which was usually bare-faced but far more beautiful than most other ladies, was actually covered with a layer of light makeup, especially around her eyes, as if she was covering something up.

"Ah."

Fu Hua raised her hand and gently fiddled with the bangs on her forehead in an unnatural movement.

"Does it look weird?"

"That's not true. Commander Fu is naturally beautiful. A little dressing up will certainly make her look even more elegant."

Lu Chen yawned and said casually: "It's just that in my impression, Commander Fu, you have never liked red clothes and military uniforms, and you don't bother to dress yourself up. Today, you suddenly put on makeup, so I'm a little confused."

Hearing this, Fu Huan glanced at Lu Chen in surprise for some unknown reason, but she didn't ask anything and just shook her head.

"It's just a whim, Governor Lu doesn't need to worry about it."

"Ah."

Lu Chen didn't gossip much, so he certainly didn't want to get to the bottom of things.

That's the end of this topic.

The two of them came to Yuzhou Yamen together as usual.

Then, just sit there for a whole day.

As night fell and the lanterns first came on, Fu Hua took the vegetable box containing food from a Xuanji guard and came to Lu Chen. While placing the delicious food on the table, she whispered:

"Governor Lu, let's eat something first."

Lu Chen nodded, then put down the official document, then stretched hard, then got up and walked towards the dining table.

After sitting down, seeing Lu Chen looking exhausted again, Fu Hua raised her hand inexplicably and rubbed her temples, feeling a little headache.

"what happened?"

Lu Chen glanced at her and asked calmly: "Commander Fu, are you feeling unwell today?"

Fu Hua shook her head: "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about something."

"Oh."

Lu Chen didn't ask again.

Fu Huan was the commander of the Xuanji Guards, and in Lu Chen's understanding, the Xuanji Guards were roughly the same as the Jinyi Guards, so in his eyes, Fu Hua was basically the same as the commander of the Jinyi Guards, who was the chief spy in ancient times.

As a foreign minister, there was no need for him to ask more questions about the things that a spy chief wanted.

While eating, Fu Hua took a few bites and didn't move her chopsticks again.

When her cultivation reaches her level, she has already been able to completely live without food. She can rely on the ubiquitous spiritual energy in the world to replenish her own energy without eating. Eating is completely unnecessary.

It's just that when Lu Chen was eating, she wanted to take a few bites with him for some reason.

"Say it."

After putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Fu Hua suddenly spoke: "As the saying goes, high position means power. If you want to benefit the world, power is indispensable. Governor Lu, although you care about the common people and have won the trust of His Majesty, you are still ranked among the seventh rank. At the end of the day, it is not enough to influence the government, so why don't you first seek a high position, rule the world, and then govern the world, but are you so anxious for the moment?"

"Those with great ambitions should not be obsessed with the present, but should seek for the future. Trying to be quick for a while will only lead to greater disasters, which is not conducive to the future and is not conducive to the ambitions in your heart. Such a simple truth, with your talent and learning, Governor Lu , shouldn’t be confused.”

Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but raise his eyes.

Damn...this woman doesn't think I'm a little abnormal, right?

Gan!This system settlement cycle is coming soon. If the system determines that the behavior is abnormal, it will affect the final reward...

Thinking of this, his mind couldn't help but change rapidly.

After a while, he slowly put down the bowl and chopsticks.

"Xiaoguan does understand this truth, and he understands it more deeply than anyone else."

The actor-level acting skills were once again on display. At this time, he was like a drama spirit possessed, and his tone was quite serious: "But even so, if I have to choose again, I will still seek justice for the people who died. ."

Fu Hua asked subconsciously: "Why?"

"Human behavior patterns are inertial."

Lu Chen sighed deeply.

"As long as you compromise yourself once, there will be a next time, and the next time, and then...the original intention will gradually disappear in the compromises again and again, and you may never even find it again."

Hearing this, Fu Huan was stunned.

In his mind, he inexplicably recalled the scene before and after he activated the rare Nine Heavens Spiritual Root and was accepted as a closed disciple by his master.

Inexplicably, the Dao crystal in his soul, which had been frequently stirred recently, began to tremble violently.

"As the saying goes, flowers will bloom again and people will never be young again."

Lu Chen's deep voice slowly sounded in his ears.

"So what if I get a high position through constant compromise? By then, will the officer who has forgotten his original intention still be the officer he is now?"

boom!
