"The rabbits in Halwen's house are not delicious, they are far worse than what you cook. I don't know what spices he put in it. I'm still feeling uncomfortable." Feiqi rubbed his stomach and frowned and complained to Shani.
"It's worth it for a stomachache!" Shani said angrily: "I woke up in the morning, read Mathers's secret report, and teleported it away without saying a word, which scared me. Not only that, you are still eating outside. How did you know that the food was not poisoned?"
"Am I poisoned? Well... I feel a bit like poisoning when you say that." Feiqi rubbed his stomach, then took out the holy emblem of Goddess of Truth from his pocket, and used the magic rune to perform poison removal spells. Since he inserted the pit sword into the Iron Throne, he has carried this golden holy emblem with him, replacing the one on the hilt of the sword when performing the priest's magic technique.
"Hey! It's really poisoned! I'm going to use the human body. At this time, I'm probably dead and hard!" Feiqi used several spells and paid a mouthful of blood before vomiting out a ball of green and yellow things. His abdominal pain was relieved immediately and disappeared completely in a minute. "Who used what method to poison this? Damn it, how did you hide it from me?"
"If you talk about magic, I think no one can hide it from your eyes. But you are not a poisonous assassin. If you don't know, you will naturally be unable to be prepared." Shani called the guards and summoned the doctors of the palace to deal with the filth in the house. "You are fine when you go out in the morning, but you start to feel uncomfortable as soon as you come back at noon. Since you have no wounds on your body, then think about what you ate in the morning?"
"The biscuits in Halwin's room, a glass of their estate's specialty red wine, and a roasted rabbit. It should be a rabbit!"
"Is it because I was quickly poisoned by someone when I walked towards the rabbit?" Feiqi recalled for a moment, but still couldn't believe it.
"In the future, you still have to bring your guards and doctors when you go out, and follow the rules of the palace. Although those rules are a little more complicated, they are summarized after many rulers and their families have been killed or injured, and there is wisdom in it. Besides, those troubles mostly fall on your guards, and you just need to bring them with you."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Feiqi nodded, picked up the cup and drank the water. The cool water slid down his throat, feeling much better than before.
Shani sighed. If it were Feiqi in the past, if he agreed to something, Shani would be completely relieved. But now, as Feiqi devoted more and more effort to unify the entire Yongli continent, he became less and less obedient. That is, the day before yesterday, the inner court had just held a meeting and evaluated and summarized the management pressure of various working groups after the beginning of spring, believing that the pace of the empire's expansion must be temporarily stopped, and at least it was impossible to add new territory before autumn. Feiqi agreed at the meeting, but two days later, a big city was taken into his pocket.
Fortunately, this time it was incorporated through negotiations, and there was no war and the impact was not bad, so Shani did not criticize him. It is estimated that Feiqi didn't want Shani to criticize him, so she consciously showed her the Halwin family's conditional surrender letter, and pointed out the article "The Magic Empire completed its acceptance after autumn" to defend herself that she did not violate the promises at the inner court meeting. But Shani knew very well that once she started looking for reasons and loopholes, she would be ready to speak. With Feiqi's intelligence, if he wanted to play word games, he could find the back door as much as he could.
"I'm poisoned this time. Do you want to tell the Halwin family?" Feiqi rinsed his mouth with water and said.
Is it to make the Halwin family pay the price? Shani thought for a moment and felt that this was not very consistent with Feiqi's style. "What are you worried about?"
"Halwin is a good example. I am worried that he will be used by those who oppose me to sacrifice the flag. He will definitely become the target of public criticism after he announced his surrender. I have also reminded him, but this poisoned guy is uneasy. What if I send a messenger to make him be careful? Or maybe I don't just say it?"
Shani shook her head: "Let's not talk about it. On the one hand, she is not sure who is the one who poisoned it, and the Halwin family has not escaped suspicion. On the other hand, if you admit that you are poisoned, it will affect your powerful and invincible image. The flaw you finally exposed will attract a large number of assassins. On the contrary, if you don't have anything, it will be better from a safety perspective."
"Well, I'll listen to you. But I'd better write a letter to Halwin to let him pay attention to the possible accidents that may occur during the handover stage. By the way, urging him to send his three sons to Tawugang City as soon as possible, so that he can still catch up with the expansion training of the Hell Knights."
"The Knights of Hell are going to expand? I remember you weren't going to let them fight in the Second World?"
Fitch nodded and explained to Shani: "The Knights of Hell are used to maintain the stability of the empire. With the help of the teleportation array, you can hit any place at any time and deal with various rebellions, so you must be less and more skilled. The battles in the Second World require ordinary warriors, even cannon fodder, but these warriors can also receive training from the Knights of Hells. If you perform well, stay and continue training to complete the entire Hells' course. Those ordinary ones teach them how to understand the commands and cooperate with each other, and use some magic guns that have been replaced, it is enough to deal with the battles in the Second World."
"Feich, your arrangement is hard for me to understand. I always feel that you have other arrangements and plans, and I don't even want to tell you." Shani narrowed her eyes and stared at Fei with her snake-like eyes: "You don't want to tell me, do you want me to guess?"
Feiqi waved his hand and said nothing. He didn't want to deceive Shani, so he could only build a high wall with silence, or quickly transfer the topic to other aspects. However, there is indeed a problem with this method that can only be done in practice. How can a person as sensitive as Shani cannot find it? Even if he covers his ears and steals the bell, he has to steal it when he needs to. As long as you don't make a sound, what's the matter if you block your ears?
Of course this is just a quibble, but it is Feiqi's only way at present. He hid his real plan, and on the surface he was a strong man who wanted to unify the world every day, handled external affairs in an aggressive manner, and then constantly urged to strengthen domestic construction. The profit from the toy wand and the income from the Hell Magic Puncture Cannon were constantly transferred to the mortal world. The Revi Magic Empire was like a stimulant, and with Feiqi's continuous whipping, the production machines except farming began to operate at high speed.
The way the working group went directly to the countryside allowed Feichi's power to reach the grassroots level, and the teleportation array ensured that the support of various materials and manpower could be quickly achieved, which allowed the empire to obtain unprecedented political governance efficiency. This basically unlayered approach is as good as all other governance methods, such as many trivial matters that cannot be solved at the working group level, and will come to the center of the empire, which will involve a lot of energy. But at the national level, it is not to see whether it can be done the best, but a "better" is very enough.
In the process of transitioning from farming to magical industry, a large number of daily affairs are still in the countryside, right in front of the working group. These things often have a characteristic: they occur with the agricultural production cycle, and the impact is also the long cycle based on quarters and years, so it is not that urgent. Don’t think that the lords, nobles and knights in the past understood agricultural production very well. Their annual obligations were concentrated on wars, and the matters in the fields were almost solved by the farmers at the village level. The working group should make good comfort, coordinate and seek help in time when cracking down on bandits and robbers, and there is nothing big left.
The magic industry is where novel troubles continue to arise, but fortunately, this part is very concentrated. The industrial park adjacent to Tawugang City concentrates all workshops related to magic production, and Fitch and Neijing can directly manage it. Because the scale is not large enough, Fitch's experience - including knowledge from the devil - has helped a lot.
With this confidence, Feiqi issued the "Recruitment Order on Blood Meteors" to achieve greater effect - although there are still few responders, all kinds of rebukes are piled up in the house. As long as Feiqi expected, he wanted everyone to think that his biggest hobby was to conquer the world and let everyone take his combat power and dare not be the first to be the first to build the ten magic towers along the Sunset Mountains as soon as possible. Now he really wants to attack those territories, and there is no problem in fighting, but he really does not have rich management capabilities.
Cultivating management talents is like cultivating any talent, it takes time, energy, population and a lot of expenses. The empire's treasury has been operating overload, and human resources have also reached its limit. The former can still be supported by the devil's looting, but the latter...
The same was true for the former Principality, which was fought for years, so the current Revey Magic Empire is far inferior to those places where large-scale and long-term battles have not occurred. Feiqi is also jealous of those populations, but the more he is jealous of the people, the more he is, the less impulsive he is. Although he can control the losses on the battlefield and win with his strong combat power, if he cannot keep up with his sufficient management ability, chaos will still die.
Speaking of people, there was one thing that made Feiqi so angry that she was half-extinguished. Halwin promised to send her three sons to Feiqi to participate in the training of the Knights of Hells, but only one of the biggest ones came. The other two were coaxed and pulled to the Holy Tribe Castle by others halfway through the journey. Feiqi could see that the eldest son who came here actually wanted to go to the Holy Tribe Castle in his heart. The "Sacred Hunter" there was also recruiting new people, who could not learn skills and learn divine arts at the same time, and there were corresponding levels in the church. However, if all three people wanted to go to the Holy Tribe Castle, then Shita Town would definitely be flattened by Feiqi, so the older eldest son decided to come over. He failed to bring his two younger brothers out in the context of the words of the Holy Word Patriarch and the Paladin. He thought that he could come alone could be considered an explanation.
He certainly couldn't tell Feiqi that he hadn't persuaded him to do this. He only said that he was drunk, and then the three of them separated, and he barely escaped. This was not the first person to try to lie in front of Feiqi, but he was indeed the first person to dress in a well-dressed, rosy complexion, and majestic manner. He also said that he had "struggled, struggled, and finally" escaped.
"Write a letter to the Archbishop, saying that he is affecting the agreement between me and Count Halwin, and ask him to send the two young men who were drunk and taken away. Tell him clearly that the agreement will affect the fate of the Halwin family, and let him take back the stretched hand for the sake of human life. A copy of this letter will also be sent to Count Halwin." Feiqi looked at the young man standing in front of him. The man was only a limited age than himself, and had already changed to his own words and actions. "You, write them down and write them down, remember how much they write, and sign the name and attach it to the letter."
Sam said yes, and asked, "Your Majesty, what should I do if the church says there are no these two people?"
"I believe in the church. If they say there is no, it may not be." Feiqi turned his mind and said, "It is very likely that someone pretended to be a church and committed abduction in the territory along the way. It doesn't matter if there are these two people, so that they can hand them over for the sake of Count Halwin's eagerness to love his son, so as not to affect the relationship between the empire and Halwin. Halwin's hundreds or even thousands of lives are not a joke."
The most anxious thing now is Halwin, but he is not innocent. Who told him not to control his son? If you enjoy the benefits, you have to take responsibility. You can run away with the church people and leave an empire and his family next to it. It is impossible for you to have no cause and effect. Feiqi doubted whether the "lobbyists" of the church used some magical means, otherwise it would not be so easy.
Or, Halwin had known these things for a long time, and even arranged everything, including poisoning. Although this idea was not confirmed, it still took root in Feiqi's heart, and she burst into tears from time to time.
Fortunately, Feiqi's rationality was not lost. He knew that these methods that could not be put on the table will be released now, and they will continue to jump out in the future, even more and more frequently. The fundamental reason is that they no longer have the means to put on the table. In the event that they cannot defeat and dare not fight to the death, they will block the economy and cause some political troubles, destroy the image of the empire with rumors and rude words, and use Feiqi's name to intimidate their people and allies in order to collect more money... besides these, do they have any other skills?
As long as they join forces and drag the priests of the church, they choose to die slowly - another possibility is rapid death. After swaying at the limit, the situation in the empire is now stable and improving, so Fitch will focus more on the magic tower and the devil fortress in the second world. Yaka is already arranging an attack on a fortress of divine crystal. She has already feinted several other fortresses to cover up her direct pursuit of divine crystal. She has secretly gathered a large number of troops, and infiltration and reconnaissance are underway, just waiting for the best opportunity.
The devil's plan is unfolding smoothly, and this is the best time for the "good guys" to come and make trouble. When Feich focused his eyes and energy on the Empire and the Second World, a three-man team sneaked into hell and gradually approached his territory. They were composed of kind and powerful mages, powerful and powerful warlocks, and powerful and kind rangers.
