Feng Qingyao refused, and Chen An just stared at Feng Qingyao, feeling that something was wrong with this woman.
Feng Qingyao seemed a little embarrassed when Chen An stared at her. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Chen An.
Chen An suddenly said, "You don't want to be a king, but a demon princess? This name sounds like a dancer!"
"Also, I heard that in the Heavenly Demon Palace, besides me, only the Demon King and the Protector Demon Lord have real power. Especially the Demon King, he can freely select and form his own team of demon generals and can dispose of his subordinates at will. The Demon Princess should be similar to some empty positions in the imperial dynasty, flashy but without substance!"
Feng Qingyao blushed slightly, but said very seriously: "The Demon Lord is the backer of the Demon Princess and represents the Demon Lord's will. As long as the Demon Lord is here, the Demon King cannot go against my will."
Chen An frowned. This woman was so stupid. What she said was so clear because she hoped Feng Qingyao could manage her own strength in the Heavenly Demon Palace.
In this way, if he went to the Four Pole Road, if she was one of the four great demon kings and had her own powerful forces, and with his orders as the demon lord, she would be able to take charge of the Heavenly Demon Palace.
But this woman actually competed with the empty title of Demon Princess.
After thinking for a while, Chen An shook his head: "Alright then, Demon King and the Guardian Demon Lord will be sealed at once. Also, you need to find a place to rebuild the Heavenly Demon Palace!"
"Yes, Demon Lord!" Feng Qingyao was very happy, even dancing with joy: "Thank you, Demon Lord, for your trust!"
"List!"
“Write it right away!”
Soon, Feng Qingyao decided on the candidates for the four great demon kings and the twelve guardian demon lords.
Chen An had never seen the other four demon kings except the old demon he had just planted, but he trusted Feng Qingyao.
As for the positions of the twelve guardian demon lords, Chen An gave one position each to Xiaoqi and his brother Chonglin, and the others were left to the candidates listed by Feng Qingyao.
From then on, the Demon Palace seemed to have a foundation for reconstruction.
Chen An wrote down the Demon Lord's will in his own handwriting. However, Chen An couldn't help but ask, "Feng Qingyao, do you really not want to be the Demon Lord?"
Feng Qingyao shook her head like a rattle. Chen An asked in confusion, "Is Mo Ji really the second-in-command of the Heavenly Demon Palace?"
"yes!"
"What position does that correspond to in my Tianyue Dynasty?"
Mo Ji thought for a moment, glanced at Chen An, and then spoke: "It's equivalent to the chief steward of internal affairs, uh, the favorite of the emperor. As long as the Demon Lord is here, I am one level higher than the official!"
"I see. However, I feel that it still lacks the authority and power of a Demon King. I can manage a team that is loyal to me and firmly follows my orders. Why don't you take on the role of Demon King as well?"
Chen An looked at Feng Qingyao.
But Feng Qingyao's pretty face was full of determination: "No, no, no, I'll just sit in Moji's position!"
Chen An stared at Feng Qingyao with sharp eyes, feeling more and more that something was not right.
"Feng Qingyao, are you hiding something from me?"
"Bang!"
Feng Qingyao knelt on the ground instantly, then raised her pitiful and aggrieved face.
"If the Demon Lord doesn't trust his subordinates, he can sentence them to death!"
Chen An couldn't help rolling his eyes. It wasn't that he didn't trust this woman, but it was strange that this woman would give up the powerful position of Demon King and not take up the concurrent position.
Then, Feng Qingyao said pitifully: "There is a reason why I don't want to be a demon king!"
Chen An's eyes flashed: "Speak!"
"After the Heavenly Demon Palace was established and the four great demon kings were enfeoffed, the demon kings were not allowed to reside in the Heavenly Demon Palace. This was because there had been a demon king rebellion in the past. Therefore, the four great demon kings could not enter the Heavenly Demon Palace unless summoned by the Demon Lord. If a subordinate was enfeoffed as a demon king, according to the rules, he naturally could not reside in the Heavenly Demon Palace either. It would be difficult for him to help the Demon Lord to rule the Heavenly Demon Palace, nor could he serve the Demon Lord!"
Chen An suddenly realized: "So this is the reason. Okay, when I'm not here, you will be in charge of the Heavenly Demon Palace. The Heavenly Demon Order allows you to continue to be in charge!"
"Yes, Demon Lord!" Feng Qingyao clasped her fists, then asked doubtfully, "Where is the Demon Lord going?"
"I want to enter the Four Pole Road!"
"Then Demon Lord, please take me with you!" Feng Qingyao suddenly became anxious.
Chen An's face turned serious. "If you and I both go, who will be in charge of the Heavenly Demon Palace? You are one of us. I feel at ease with you around. Remember, we cannot let the people from the Heavenly Demon Palace kill innocent people. Watch them carefully!"
Feng Qingyao suddenly felt uncomfortable: "But..."
"No buts, you are the only candidate, and I only trust you in the Demon Palace now."
"When will the Demon Lord come back?" Feng Qingyao asked helplessly.
"I don't know yet, but I will definitely come back!"
Chen An looked at the sky outside. Although it was far away...even if he died, he would still return!
After Chen An left, Feng Qingyao's heart began to pound and her breathing became rapid.
I couldn't help but pat my chest with my hands and looked into the distance with some fear.
"I was so scared!"
But after a moment, Feng Qingyao's face showed worry: "The Four Pole Road is so dangerous, the Demon Lord... must come back, otherwise, after a long time, I, the Demon Princess, will be useless!"
…
After leaving Central China, Chen An returned to Tiandu City.
As for Zhang You, Chen An has always felt that this old man, a powerful official, is very wild in his ways, but Chen An is not afraid of not being able to control him.
He was afraid that after he left, this old guy would disrupt the government of the Tianyue Dynasty and leave him with a mess.
However, after Chen An asked Liu Tong, he found out that someone had reminded Zhang You. This old guy is now very well-behaved and no longer competes for the position of Prime Minister. It is also said that he no longer recruits disciples.
However, he devoted all his efforts to military and national affairs.
Liu Tong sneaked back, and Chen An simply let Liu Tong continue to serve as the head of the Mingjing Division, so he was generally aware of the news of the court.
However, when Chen An met Han Zhang, Zhang You, and Li Feng.
Only then did Chen An understand why this old guy had changed his personality.
Damn it!
It’s not that Zhang You doesn’t want to be a powerful official and doesn’t work hard to form a party, but because this old guy doesn’t have the time to deal with those bullshit things.
Now, Zhang You is trying his best to promote the great cause of unifying the five parts of China by the Tianyue Dynasty!
As soon as Zhang You arrived, he enthusiastically told the story of his plan to unify the country.
The general meaning is that if you can gain a firm foothold in the central part of China, you can then look down on the northern, southern and western parts of China.
After completely controlling the Central Shenzhou, they would first attack the Western Shenzhou, because the Demon Sect in the Western Shenzhou was actually the emperor's men.
The news that Chen An is a Buddhist envoy now seems to be known everywhere. The two most powerful sects in Western Shenzhou have become Chen An's helpers, making it the easiest to take over Western Shenzhou!
Once you control the Western Shenzhou, you can attack the Southern and Northern Shenzhou from three directions: the Eastern, Central, and Western Shenzhou!
At this moment, Han Zhang and Li Feng also strongly supported Zhang You's plan. Obviously, the two ministers had reached a strategic unity and had started planning long ago.
After listening to this, Chen An glanced at the three of them and asked slowly, "Your plan is great, but did you overlook something?"
