The villain queen's close minister

It doesn't matter if it's balanced or not.

Su An had a hunch that the time to attack the Emperor Ye clan would not be too far away.

Therefore, even if it is just to strengthen Sister Ruoxi's strength, the origin world must be unified.

"Oh, then we, the demon clan, are just ants under the general trend."

Di Qingxian laughed rather self-deprecatingly.

She is not someone who can't figure things out, and knows that without Su An, they wouldn't even have a chance to talk.

Who makes the demon clan too weak to resist the great merchants?

However, it is a little hard to accept the thought that the glory of our ancestors will be cut off in our own generation.

If she didn't have deep feelings for the Monster Clan and the Golden Crow Clan in her heart, she would not have resolutely devoured her fiancé Zhang Junxuan's Origin Certificate when the Monster Clan was in turmoil, stabilized the Golden Crow Clan's imperial position, and quelled the Demon Clan's rebellion.

But Su An is not Zhang Junxuan, and she is not the Emperor Qingxian at that time.

Looking at Su An holding her daughter, her expression gradually softened, and finally she sighed softly and accepted the fact of surrender.

"What are the conditions? Let us, like the Dragon Clan, surrender and become the people of the great merchants?"

Su An held Di Qingxian's waist, and his gentle voice was enough to soothe his soul.

"Remove the title of Demon Emperor, change the Southern Barbarians to the four states of Nan, Demon, Gold, and Red. Keep your title of Qing Emperor and the Lord of the Demon Clan, and confer the title of Holy Demon King. You will actually seal the land of the four Southern Barbarian states and rule the demons. In addition, we will open up trade between the demon clan and great merchants, promote exchanges between humans and demons, and combat the wild demons who practice cannibalism and the evil cultivators who kill the people of the Demon Court to refine elixirs..."

One by one, this is not a one-sided oppression.

Compared to the Dragon Clan and Sea Clan, this condition is undoubtedly much better, fully retaining the independence of the Monster Clan and the power of Emperor Qingxian.

In addition to Su An's reason, it also takes into account the differences between the human and demon races.

After all, the Monster Clan is not like the Dragon Clan and the Sea Clan. There are dense forests in the southern barbarian land and there are many ancient trees and spirit beasts. The Monster Clan is rooted in all spirits. As long as spiritual intelligence is born, it can be called a monster.

It can be said that the concept of demon is extremely broad and cannot be exterminated.

It is more cost-effective to leave them to the demon clan to deal with them than to send people and efforts to the big merchants.

"After Tian is destroyed in the future, if you want to leave Great Shang, I can open up a world for you for the demon clan to live in. This is my personal promise."

Looking at the face that should have been cold and noble, but instead looked like a girl, Su An added another sentence.

"……Thanks."

Di Qingxian was silent for a moment, then suddenly showed a very bright smile.

No longer resisting, he leaned against Su An's shoulder, feeling empty but also feeling at ease in his heart.

She knew that this was the man's promise to her.

Chapter 382: Seeing the Buddha Girl Again

……

The next day, Emperor Qingxian summoned all ministers to discuss, or inform.

Surprisingly, almost no demons objected.

The story of the Dragon Clan and the Sea Clan has spread to the Monster Clan. I heard that the die-hards from the two tribes were captured and taken back to Dashang and made into dishes or toys. They didn't want to be those die-hards.

It would be fine if he just died, but if he became someone else's plaything, then life would be worse than death.

In this weird state of mind, the surrender of the demon clan went very smoothly.

And under the witness of a group of demons, Emperor Qingxian took off the imperial crown, received a personal letter from the empress of Dashang, and received the imperial edict to be canonized as the Holy Demon King, declaring that the Demon Court was completely merged into Dashang.

Things will be more troublesome after that. After being divided into four states, many positions need to be readjusted. Business between humans and demons is not a matter of a few words. In addition, some internal problems of the demon clan make it difficult for Emperor Qingxian, who still retains the title of Qing Emperor, to Everyone got busy.

After seeing that the situation was generally stable and there was nothing unusual, Su An stayed with her mother and daughter for a few more days before leaving.

"In the end, only the Western Desert is left."

Negotiations with West Desert continue.

It's not that Xi Mo is ignorant and wants to go against the big merchants. In fact, the Buddhists in the West Desert say that there is no problem in surrendering. Even local officials, big and small, can be appointed and removed at the discretion of the big merchants. This was the signal from the Buddhist girl.

But the negotiations on faith took place many times.

They hope to allow Buddhist monks to preach in China.

In fact, although Dashang did not explicitly express its position on preaching before, it still suppressed it implicitly. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Dashang to have no Buddhist and Taoist sects now.

The only activity is that every 20 years, Buddhist women come to the imperial capital to give lectures.

But Buddhism still had little success in Dashang.

On the one hand, the form of Buddhism is completely different from that of Dashang, which is centered on beliefs and ideas.

On the other hand, Buddhism’s concept of cutting off worldly connections and the emptiness of dependent origins was not highly regarded by the kings of the Great Shang dynasties.

The nature of dependent origination is empty, and the cause and effect is the gear that tightly controls the ups and downs of the past and present lives of all things.

But few practitioners, especially powerful practitioners, believe in fate.

The strong will only hold their destiny firmly in their own hands.

However, Su An was very curious about the Buddha girl and decided to go and have a look.

As soon as you enter the Western Desert, you can feel the strong atmosphere of faith.

There are many temples here and there, and the sound of chanting can be heard, bringing a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere.

Most pedestrians have smiles on their faces, and the concentration of negative emotions in the environment is extremely low.

Passing through several temples, the monks prayed to the Buddha and did good deeds. I didn't see anything dirty.

This is different from what Su An thought.

"Being born in such an environment, although it is difficult to produce truly outstanding people, the people are happy and live a long life. Although it is supreme truth, everyone has a long life."

"Is it because of the Buddha girl?"

His eyes moved slightly, it was not far from the Landa Temple where the Buddha girl was.

That Buddha girl has always been very mysterious, and even Venerable Lei Yin, the abbot of Landa Temple, respects her very much.

There is also the Mani Pearl, which is not something that ordinary monks can get.

The corners of Su An's lips curled up slightly as she thought of the mani beads that she had watered for a long time to assist in the practice of Yin Yang Avenue and absorbed enough jade liquid.

"Go meet her."

He will not think that those who practice Buddhism are all good people just because he has seen a few temples.

Otherwise, where did the Dingguang Evil Buddha come from?

Maybe the atmosphere in the Western Desert is good now, but after entering China, who knows if there will be people wearing cassocks, practicing the devil's way in the name of monks.

The person in charge who came to West Desert for discussion was Su An's acquaintance, aunt Su Xuan.

This aloof ancestor was in the guest room of Landa Temple receiving distinguished guests, but he seemed to have a headache at the moment.

"aunt."

Su An called out, and Su Xuan realized that there was an extra person in the room.

"Xiao An!" She said with joy on her face, "Why are you here?"

"Didn't I dream that my aunt was worried, and I wanted to take care of my aunt's worries, so I came all the way." Su An stood behind Su Xuan very comfortably, put his fingers on her head and started to rub it gently.

It was obviously a lie, but Su Xuan felt quite comfortable listening to it.

Ten fingers rubbed her head, which relieved her slightly tired mind.

"Are those monks too arrogant and unreasonable to worry my aunt?" Su An took the opportunity to ask.

"Not really. They, including the Buddha girl, are actually quite reasonable."

There was a trace of tiredness in Su Xuan's smile, and fatigue was inadvertently revealed between her brows.

If only he were as arrogant as the demon cultivator, he could just lift his sword and wipe them out.

It happened that Buddhism treated the envoys from big merchants like them very kindly, reasonable and cooperative, but they were too good at reasoning and couldn't defeat them at all.

Although there are many eloquent officials in the Dashang Mission, many things still require her to be the person in charge, and others are not enough.

It is absolutely impossible to allow Buddhism to enter Dachang and preach at will, and there must be restrictions.

As for how big the restriction is and what aspects it lies in, the knowledge involved is huge.

Therefore, after several discussions, no result was reached.

Su Xuan now really regrets taking over Ximo.

She's really not good at dealing with this kind of thing.

"Let me tell them, aunt, have a good rest." Seeing Su Xuan's mood, Su An accepted the job with a chuckle.

"Really?" Su Xuan was obviously moved.

She turned her head and saw Su An's expression didn't seem to be fake, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then it's up to you, Xiao An."

The aunt and nephew exchanged pleasantries, and the relationship became a little closer.

……

"The fifth is to observe all colors green. The sixth is to observe all colors yellow. The seventh is to observe all colors red..."

In the independent monk's dormitory, the voice of the Buddhist girl who was chanting sutras was paused.

Snap!

The beads in her hand were scattered on the ground again, and her heart was confused again.

Opening her eyes, she looked at the void in front of her, her eyes that were supposed to be pure and wise became more emotional.

"Almsgiver Su, come out, don't make fun of this poor monk."

No one answered.

She stared like this for half a quarter of an hour before Su An calmly took the Mani Pearl he was playing with into his arms and emerged from the void.

"Haha, what a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet a Buddha girl here."

The solemn treasure of the Buddha girl also showed a hint of helplessness, confirming again that it was a wrong choice to hand over her Mani Bead to this donor Su.

Not to mention educating Su An with Buddhist principles, she herself was influenced by Su An.

Thinking about it, she opened her mouth slightly and said, "Almsgiver Su, the poor monk's mani beads..."

Before the Buddhist girl could ask for the Mani Pearl, Su An asked first: "What Mani Pearl? Did your pearl fall off? I will help you find it."

This look of pretending to be stupid and stunned made the Buddha girl choke again.

"Donor Su, it's the bead in your arms."

She quickly recovered from Su An's shamelessness and spoke bluntly with a finger.

Originally, she was gradually recovering her past life memories and should have become more and more calm when facing Su An. However, she did not know what embarrassing things Su An did to her Mani Pearl, which made her have a Buddha's heart every time she faced Su An. It kept trembling.

"Oh, you're talking about this!"

Su An showed a stunned expression, took out a pearl emitting Buddha light from her arms, shook her head and denied:

"Buddha girl, you must have seen it wrong. These are obviously my balls."

Chapter 383: Enter Meditation Later

What egg beads, of course, are egg beads that can beat.

"Donor Su is joking, this pearl is the Mani Pearl of the poor monk."

The Buddha girl forced herself to calm down, and her cheeks, which were as white as ivory and shone with the Buddha's light, had a slightly invisible blush.

With Bodhi wisdom in her heart and understanding of all things, she understood Su An's meaning by just glancing at the mani bead.

So much so that the scene he had observed through the Mani Pearl emerged.
