Fellow Daoist, your script is really good.

With his one-year term completed, Shiraba Ye was promoted.

Originally, Bai Yeye thought that with this promotion, he would be transferred to a larger city as the city lord, or at most enter a functional position in the prefecture.

But this time, the transfer...

Bai Yeye rose to prominence in one fell swoop, directly entering the imperial court.

Chapter 674 Not only did they kill people, but they also destroyed their spirits!

In the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, the promotion and demotion of officials is not much different from that of human dynasties.

Both the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons and the Kingdom of Humans have systems of imperial examinations and military examinations.

However, in some human kingdoms, civil service examinations were valued more than military examinations, and military examinations were not as important as civil service examinations.

However, in the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons, the imperial examinations and the military examinations are equally important.

This is the land of the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom, which believes in governing the country through both civil and military means.

Normally, when officials of the Wan Yao Kingdom first enter officialdom, they will go to some towns to gain experience.

The timeframe is uncertain, but it generally takes three to five years.

After your term ends, your next position will be determined based on your performance.

Generally, those who perform exceptionally well will be appointed to positions in the prefectural government to assist the prefect in managing the prefecture.

Then you can gradually get promoted.

After becoming a prefect, the next step is to govern a province.

The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons also follows a state and prefecture system, consisting of ten major states.

Of course, if one performs exceptionally well, one can directly enter the Demon Capital, participate in the imperial court, and enter the central government.

However, the latter is rare.

In short, it would take a normal hundred years for an official of the Wan Yao Kingdom to enter the imperial court.

but......

Shiraba Ye only took one year!

"Lord Bai Yeye of Crocodile City has achieved outstanding results in his first year in office, and the people are living in harmony. He shall return to the Demon Capital immediately and serve as an Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Personnel."

As Bai Yeye listened to the sterile demon clan member in the palace reading the brief contents of the imperial edict, he fell into deep thought.

The Ministry of Personnel was the most powerful department among the Three Departments and Six Ministries.

The Minister of Personnel was even referred to as the "Heavenly Official".

However, the position of a minor official was quite awkward.

The position of Yuanwailang was actually a sinecure, but it was placed in a powerful department like the Ministry of Personnel, so it seemed to be in a somewhat awkward position.

Bai Yeye didn't know whether this was her uncle's and father's intention, or whether someone in the court was secretly targeting her.

Even though it was just a minor official position, he entered the imperial court in just one year.

This was unacceptable to the officials of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom.

Even if she were the princess of the Demon Kingdom, she would still be the subject of gossip.

Moreover, after that, one's actions will be further amplified.

Many people will be watching your every move.

Therefore, this promotion may not necessarily be a good thing.

But Shiraha Ye knew that she couldn't refuse.

Now that the imperial decree has been issued, if I refuse, it would be considered disobeying the decree.

This is an extremely serious matter.

"Your subject receives the decree!"

Ultimately, Shiraba Ye chose to accept it.

When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it. Only when you actually step into the imperial court will you know the real reasons behind it.

"Your Highness, there is no need to worry."

A neutered male dog stepped forward and smiled as he placed the imperial edict into Bai Yeye's hand.

"This appointment may indeed not be what people want."

But no matter what, Her Highness the Princess has always been His Majesty's darling, not to mention the presence of the King of the Southern Wilderness.

Therefore, Your Highness can rest assured to take up your post.

Some people may dislike Her Highness and may try to scheme against her, but in any case, Her Highness is perfectly safe.

"Thank you, Grandpa Ha."

Bai Yeye nodded, then gestured to Xiaohua beside her. Xiaohua understood and took out a storage bag.

"Eunuch Ha, here are some high-grade spirit stones that I collected from the Thunder Bear Clan and the Centaur Kingdom. Please don't think it's too little."

Grandpa Ha was stunned for a moment when he saw the storage bag containing spirit stones that Bai Yeye had personally handed over.

Eunuch Ha was one of the three chief eunuchs serving the Demon Emperor, and was an extremely trusted figure.

Grandpa Ha watched Bai Yeye grow up from a young age.

Bai Yeye's innocent, carefree, and kind nature undoubtedly made her beloved by all the eunuchs and palace maids in the harem.

When he learned that Princess had taken up her post in Crocodile City, Eunuch Ha was very worried.

After all, Crocodile City was a desolate and unruly place, and its people were wild and difficult to manage.

What if Your Highness, being of noble birth, can't adapt?

How could Her Highness endure so much hardship...?

But now, Grandpa Ha feels he might be wrong.

The princess has now not only handled everything in Crocodile City well, but has also completely taken control of the city.

Even now, the storage bag containing the spirit stones indicates that Her Highness has begun to understand some of the social etiquette and manners of the court.

This is a kind of growth for Her Highness.

However, this kind of growth left Grandpa Ha with mixed feelings, unsure whether it was good or bad.

Everyone wants the princess to just be the princess.

As long as Her Highness doesn't act recklessly, no matter how willful she is, and no matter how the King of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom changes, Her Highness's position will remain unshakable.

But in the end, Her Highness did not want to be just "Her Highness".

Without realizing it, Eunuch Ha thought of that peerless beauty in the harem, that forbidden woman whom everyone respectfully addressed as "Your Majesty."

"Your Highness, this old servant cannot accept this."

Grandpa Ha smiled, shook his head, and took a step back.

“If it were an ordinary person, this old servant would accept it, but Your Highness is Your Highness.”

"Grandpa Ha..." Bai Yeye understood what the other party meant.

"I still remember when Her Highness called me 'Grandpa Ha,' I was so scared I almost lost my soul."

Although Your Highness spoke without thinking, this old servant still received a hundred lashes.

However, I will remember for the rest of my life how adorable the princess was when she secretly brought me medicine.

Now, if Her Highness the Princess can call this old servant "Grandpa" like she did when I was a child, this old servant would die content.

Grandpa Ha bowed deeply.

"Your Highness, now that you have entered the imperial court, the court is not as simple as governing Crocodile City."

Crocodile City allows people to kill with their bare hands.

But the imperial court cannot.

Killing someone in the imperial court requires careful consideration.

Those seasoned veterans not only kill people, but they also destroy their spirits!

Your Highness is still young and inexperienced. Please be extremely careful!

By the way, His Majesty said that Princess can choose her own successor for Crocodile City, even if that person is a commoner.

I have given all that His Majesty asked of me.

The old servant has returned to report.

Your Highness, please take good care of yourself.

"Take care, Grandpa Ha."

Wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Grandpa Ha turned around, transformed into a husky, and sprinted away into the distance.

After Grandpa Ha left, Bai Yeye took a deep breath.

She knew the road ahead would be difficult, but her eyes grew increasingly resolute.

......

......

I have diarrhea again, it's really tough, my stomach is rumbling.

Chapter 675 Su Feng's Identity

On the day that Grandpa Ha left, Bai Ye summoned all three remaining clans of Crocodile City to his presence.

Bai Yeye informed them of his impending departure and appointed Bai Jingkong as the next city lord of Crocodile City.

In fact, by having Bai Yeye appoint Crocodile City as its lord, the Demon Emperor was essentially making Crocodile City Bai Yeye's fiefdom.

She already had a plan in mind to let Bai Yeye use Crocodile City to cultivate her own power.

Bai Jingkong knew this, and the other two clan leaders naturally knew it as well.

Anyone who isn't an idiot knows that.

So even after Bai Yeye left, they didn't dare to relax and didn't dare to do anything reckless.

On the contrary, they will need to cooperate more with Bai Jingkong in the future to help manage Crocodile City.

This place is essentially Shiraba Ye's fiefdom.

The reason why no official document was issued was because the fiefdom was too small and too remote. As the only fiefdom of the Wan Yao Kingdom, it was simply too beneath its dignity.

Moreover, once a fiefdom is granted, princes and nobles must go there and are not allowed to enter the court, which would limit Baiye's future development.

It can be said that the Demon Emperor was meticulously planning for the sake of his daughter.

Could it be...?

Everyone had a bold idea in their minds.

Could it be that the Demon Emperor really intends to involve his daughter in the struggle for the throne?

The other two clans were immediately excited when they thought about this.

Who wants to spend their whole life in such a dilapidated border town?

Who doesn't want to achieve great things and leave their name in history?!

If that's really the case, then I'm actually one of the first forces and subordinates that Princess Princess recruited!

I was one of the princess's original founding members!

Although the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons has never had a female emperor in its history, so what?

With the support of the Southern Wilderness King, Bai Yeye's disadvantage as a woman can be completely compensated!

"That's roughly it. Bai Jingkong will be the next city lord of Crocodile City. Please give him your assistance, two clan leaders."

I will never forget all the contributions you have made.
