Fairy, please let me explain

Chapter 717 The Foundation of Absolute Power

The deep and rough sound from outside penetrated into the house through the formation, instantly making the antique bronze ornaments on the incense burner in the corner buzz.

A moment of silence,

Before Xu Yuan could reply, a female voice was heard in the quiet room.

"It seems like no one has taught this old man a lesson for a long time."

The space of Jiulongxuan Room is not very large, it is simple and profound, except for the piles of files on the desk.

Lou Ji was wearing a slim-fitting purple cheongsam that outlined her soft and slender curves, and a white velvet waistcoat on the outside. She was leaning on the armrest of the main seat, with one hand on Xu Yuan's shoulder and the other hand gently stroking his hair.

After hearing the voice coming from outside the door, Lou Ji stopped moving immediately, and her gorgeous purple eyes immediately looked outside the door. Her charming and gentle voice was filled with a chilling coldness:
"He dares to break any rules and scold anyone. Does he really think that this Mo Yin Pavilion is the military headquarters of his Black Scale Army?"

As she spoke, Lou Ji stood up from the armrest of Xu Yuan's chair and walked towards the door.

Both in public and in private, she must make that old man outside remember the hierarchy between the ruler and his subjects.

After she had only taken a few steps, Xu Yuan's slightly tired voice called her:
"sister!"

Lou Ji frowned slightly, looked back and said softly:

"Changtian, Zong Qingsheng broke the rules and needs to be punished. If this goes on, who will respect you as the prince of the Xiangfu?"

Xu Yinhe had already announced his identity as the legitimate successor to Changtian at the Privy Council. Apart from himself, no one in the Prime Minister's Mansion was qualified to scold Xu Yuan, and no one was qualified to show off their seniority in front of him.

At the center of power, there is no age or seniority, and all personal relationships come after those between the monarch and his subjects.

Changtian is now an extension of the Prime Minister's will.

If you are angry, keep it to yourself. If you are irritated, take it home to vent it.

What is your identity, Zong Qingsheng, and what is your status, Changtian, that you are shouting at people by name at the door of Jiulongxuan?

Xu Yuan leaned back slightly, leaning on the main seat behind the desk, stroking the hair of the prince of the Xiangfu that was messed up by this old sister, and said with some amusement:
"No, weren't you the one who broke the rules first?"

"."

Lou Ji was startled, and looked back, her beautiful blue eyes gradually showed a hint of grievance, a little bit of disbelief:

"Changtian, are you blaming your sister?"

"."

Xu Yuan rolled his eyes and said unhappily:

"Zong Qingsheng waited for Hua Hong for three days, and you just barged in. It would be strange if he didn't get angry."

Lou Ji stared at Xu Yuan for a few breaths, pursed her lips, and disappeared in an instant. When she reappeared, she was already in front of Xu Yuan. She stretched out her hand towards him as fast as lightning, but before she could reach him,
"Snapped."

Xu Yuan casually grabbed the old lady's wrist as she tried to wrap her arms around his neck, and said helplessly:

"Zong Qingsheng just yelled at me, and you attacked me directly?"

As he spoke, Xu Yuan slowly stood up from the main seat and glanced at Lou Ji, only to see that the old lady was staring at her wrist that was grabbed and ignored his teasing.

Seemingly surprised,

Seemingly puzzled.

It only took her a cup of tea to enter the Jiulong Pavilion. No one would use their soul to lock someone up at will, even the closest person.

Xu Yuan released Lou Jihao's wrist and said with a smile:

"Three days ago, I beat Xu Changge up myself, didn't you know?"

".What?"

Lou Ji’s beautiful eyes widened slightly.

The soft voice echoed in the room.

She knew the eldest son's strength best. He was a man with Yuanchu's cultivation level who dared to fight against her, a half-saint, and Changtian actually defeated him?

"It seems that the Qi in the Sword Pavilion was blocked by my father that day."

At this point, Xu Yuan chuckled, reached out and patted the old sister's boneless shoulders, turned around, and said casually:
"Oh, by the way, Xu Changge has already achieved the Transcendental Realm."

"Sister knows about this!"

The Great Succubus' voice became somewhat excited.

The moment he finished speaking, Xu Yuan felt something coming towards him from behind. He subconsciously turned around and saw two soft masses getting bigger in his sight. He subconsciously wanted to use Step on the Void Slash to dodge, but eventually gave up the idea.

If I hide, this sister will be sad.

So I decided not to hide anymore.
The face feels soft when touched and the scent of the poisonous rose is sniffed.

then,

Rubbing the dog's head angrily.

This familiar sense of security~
For a long time,

With soft face and loose long hair, Xu Yuan's narrow eyes were filled with tenderness.

Lou Ji held Xu Yuan's cheeks with both hands, her beautiful eyes flickering as if she was looking at a beloved treasure.

They looked at each other for a few breaths, and then her red lips slightly opened.

"Long sky."

"how?"

"Can you give your sister some pocket money?"

"Snapped!"

Xu Yuan opened Lou Ji's hand.

The purpose of doing this is to beg for alms from him, right?
After glaring at Lou Ji unhappily, Xu Yuan turned around and walked towards the door:

"We'll talk about this later. Let me settle the people outside the door first."

Lou Ji snorted softly, stood behind with her hands around her chest, and said resentfully:

"My cultivation has improved, my wings have become stronger, and Changtian is really busy now."

Xu Yuan was silent for a while, and replied tiredly:

"Sister, I have too much to do."

While still in the Prime Minister's Palace, he had already arranged everything for his return to Beijing.

The curtain is about to be raised, and sitting in this position, he needs to become as strong as possible, but no one is born with knowledge.

Even with the experience in the Charm God's illusion, it still takes time to adapt to and master the various techniques of the Blood Essence Heart Meteorite Art, not to mention that he also needs to perfect the Black Death Talisman and develop his own life and death Taoism.

But the plan was shattered again before it even started.

too busy.

If 007 in the previous life was a kind of ironic ridicule, then in this life it is a working model that can really be materialized.

After returning to the capital, Xu Yuan was fortunate enough to experience such happiness for the first time in his life.

After defeating Xu Changge, Xu Yuan did not return to the inner courtyard immediately, but came to Mo Yin Pavilion.

He had originally planned to simply look through a few files here, receive some guidance on the work and then go back to the yard to rest. After all, the battle with Xu Changge had exhausted all his energy. But just as he entered the house and sat down, old man Hua Hong came in without a word.

then,

During these three days of study, Xu Yuan realized why the old man had such absolute and centralized authority.

Also realize that

That seat is not suitable for human sitting.

Governing a large country is like cooking a small fish and this does not apply to the system of the prime minister's office.

Absolute dictatorial power represents absolutely concentrated responsibility and work.

You have to take stock of everything.

This administrative model would never work in previous lives.

Because human power is limited, it is impossible for one person to have an overview of everything in a country, and it is even more impossible for one person to be proficient in all the ways of the world, but the system of the Prime Minister's Office just needs such a leader.

You need to know how to make elixirs to avoid the large-scale corruption and embezzlement of alchemists.

You need to understand formations and construction to assess the costs and benefits of a large project.

You also need to be familiar with military training, education and brainwashing, material exchanges, and even the modes of commanding large-scale troops.

These things make people's scalp tingle just by talking about them,
In Hua Hong's words,

But it is only the tip of the iceberg that the prime minister of the time has to bear.
