    Chapter 449: Meeting Houtu

    So in the past few years, Queen Houtu has been observing and observing the changes in the mainland.

    Therefore, she is not that concerned about the progress of the six Towers of Babel.

    By this year, it was obvious that Lei Xiang's various policies had achieved great results. Empress Houtu couldn't sit still. She believed that the time had come. She already fully understood the talents that Lei Xiang could display. Even if  Killing Lei Xiang at this time, with the help of Noah, his plan can still be carried out!

    However, Ouyang Hui and Lei Xiao repeatedly tried to persuade them, saying that the time had not come yet. After all, Lei Xiang's plan had just been implemented. Although it had achieved significant results, the drawbacks were still uncertain. If they killed him, what would happen next?  If something goes wrong, wouldn't it be trouble?

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    This time she proposed a plan to kill Lei Xiang again, but Ouyang Hui and Lei Xiao still opposed it, so Queen Houtu became furious.

    But at this moment, a sudden tremor in the soul struck everyone, including Queen Houtu. Everyone felt the stars under their feet tremble, but when they reacted immediately, it seemed that nothing had happened?  !

    Empress Houtu was shocked, and a strong uneasiness suddenly arose in her heart!

    And at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the sky above the base. Although the voice was not loud, it penetrated hundreds of feet into the ground and everyone could hear it clearly.

    Hearing this voice, Ouyang Hui and Lei Xiao could not suppress expressions of ecstasy on their faces.

    The voice said that the current Star Emperor Lei Xiang has come to pay a special visit to the Empress Dowager, please show up to see her!  "

    Hearing this voice, Queen Houtu¡¯s expression changed drastically. She suddenly stared at Ouyang Hui and Lei Xiao below. Seeing their expressions, she instantly understood and shouted loudly!  Ouyang Hui, how dare you betray me?  !  "

    Ouyang Hui and Lei Xiao could no longer hide the matter, and quickly retreated, using their star power to assume a defensive posture.

    Empress Houtu sneered. With your two star-level powers, how dare you go against me?  Since you betrayed me, go to hell!  "

    Before he finished speaking, two khaki rays of light swung towards Ouyang Hui and Ouyang Hui like lightning!

    These two rays of light are actually two beads, carrying overwhelming pressure. Even if Ouyang Hui and the two have star-level strength, if they come into contact, they will probably break their muscles and bones, or even die!

    But just as the two yellow lights were about to hit the two of them, suddenly the space in front of the two people folded instantly. The two yellow lights shot into the folded space, and actually folded directly and shot towards the bead curtain!

    Empress Houtu snorted coldly, and there was no sound after the two yellow lights shot into the bead curtain. She could only hear her loud voice: fold the space, change the route, use the other's way, and return it to the other, so that she can perform a superb move of star movement!  As expected of His Majesty Lei Xiangxing Emperor, since His Majesty is here, you might as well show up to see him!  "

    They saw the space in front of Ouyang Hui twisting, and a figure stepped out from the crack in the space. He was wearing an ordinary cloth, but the clothes were full of dust, his hair was messy, and he had an unkempt beard. He hadn't been there for a long time.  He was washing up, but his eyes were extremely bright, making people ignore the sloppiness on his body.

    Seeing this person, Lei Xiao was pleasantly surprised by Brother Dao!  you made it?  !  "

    Lei Xiang turned around and smiled at them, then turned his head and looked at the bead curtain, cupping his hands with the younger generation Lei Xiang, who had met his senior Houtu Empress.  The younger generation came anxiously and looked disheveled, asking the empress to atone for her sins.  "

    The crisp laughter coming from behind the bead curtain is worthy of being the successor of King Wu Mu, the disciple of Zi Wei, and the designated successor of Ri Yao. His Majesty Lei Xiang, you really shocked me!  "

    Lei Xiang smiled apologetically. Lei Mou had just realized something, which caused a strange phenomenon in the world. I think the empress must have felt it.  Originally, Lei was supposed to take a shower, change clothes, tidy up, and then come to see the empress. But he was worried about my younger brother and sister, so he rushed from the northwest in a hurry.  It's my fault that I'm not well-groomed, but I hope your empress will understand me and lick the calf next time.  "

    Ouyang Hui and Lei Xiao looked at Lei Xiang's back in surprise. They had not seen Lei Xiang for three years since Lei Xiang retreated from the northwest three years ago, but now Lei Xiang gave them a very different feeling.  The change, the gentleness of the words and the calmness of the clouds, gave people a feeling of spring breeze, but it was a little less angry, a little more mature, and calm like a superior.

    "Moreover, the tremor just now was just a moment. Lei Xiang actually came directly from the northwest country to Yicheng in the southwest. During this period, it was more than thousands of miles away, but he was there in an instant??, not to mention the speed, this strength alone is far better than the Sun Yao Star Emperor back then!

    Empress Houtu giggled. Since Your Majesty thinks about the deep brotherhood, will I blame you?  Come here, why don't you bring some water to help His Majesty Lei Xiang tidy up?  "

    Lei Xiang smiled and clasped his fists to thank the queen for her consideration.  "

    As he said that, Lei Xiang actually sat down on the side. Ouyang Hui and Lei Xiao were stunned and stood behind Lei Xiang.

    Soon, maids came in with basins and new clothes, and even more beautiful maids came forward with white towels to wash Lei Xiang's face.

    Lei Xiang chuckled and said, "I don't dare bother you, I'll just do it."  "

    As he spoke, he snapped his fingers, and saw that the basin of clear water instantly turned into mist, covering Lei Xiang. After a while, the mist disappeared, and Lei Xiang's whole body seemed to have taken a bath, and his hair was black and shiny.  , the body and the dirty and muddy clothes became spotless.

    Ouyang Hui and Lei Xiao looked at each other in surprise. Such a method was unheard of. It was obvious that Lei Xiang had surpassed the boundaries of the Star Saint level, and his control over elemental power had reached a level they could not imagine!

    Behind the bead curtain, Empress Houtu¡¯s voice also became a little serious. She is worthy of His Majesty Lei Xiang. It seems that His Majesty has understood the realm of heaven and man.  "

    Lei Xiang laughed because he had some insights, otherwise he would not have dared to meet the empress.  "

    Empress Houtu snorted coldly. It seems that Your Majesty is well prepared!  "

    "Don't dare!" Lei Xiang Baoquan said that the empress has been famous for a long time. Even if the master and the late Emperor Riyao were still alive, they would still call her "senior" when they saw her.  As a junior, I naturally don¡¯t dare to be rude to the empress.  The next time I come here, I just want to have a serious talk with my queen, hoping that she will stop here and give up some unnecessary ideas.  If the empress is willing, I would like to tell the world and give up the throne to the empress.  Five hundred years later, how about recruiting another talented person to take over the position of Star Emperor?  "

    Empress Houtu sneered, Your Majesty Lei Xiang is so generous!  The position of Star Emperor was actually given up at the drop of a hat?  "

    Lei Xiang laughed. To be honest, this seat is not easy to sit in.  If it hadn't been for the promotion of Emperor Riyao and the order of Master Ziwei, I wouldn't have dared to occupy this position.  It should be noted that with great ability comes great responsibility.  The empress is the oldest senior in the entire continent today. In terms of strength, no one can surpass the empress. If the empress is willing to contribute to the mainland with her own cultivation, protect the peace of the continent, improve the lives of the people, and repair the continent's  Living environment, then in Lei's position, he can really retreat at any time.  "

    Empress Houtu laughed three times. What do you mean?  Is this position of Star Emperor serving those ordinary people?  "

    Lei Xiang smiled and said, "The Queen has learned from the mistakes!"  exactly!  As the Star Emperor recommended by the mainland, if he cannot benefit the people, then there is no point in the people recommending this Star Emperor.  When the empress competed with Star Emperor Yu Lian for the position of Star Emperor, wasn't her intention to benefit the mainland?  "The Internet does not jump."

    "Hmph! Lei Xiang, you don't need to put gold on my face! I competed for the position of Star Emperor back then just because you guys were too proud. When I competed for that position, I didn't think about benefiting the mainland. I just  In order to prove that I am much better than you men and common people! Why can¡¯t I be a Star Emperor? At that time, the Wu family was the first emperor among women. During her reign, the country and the people were peaceful, the weather was smooth, and she even benefited her descendants. It¡¯s just a ridiculous man¡¯s  In the compiled history books, there is no mention of Wu's contribution at all, and it is said that it was Si Chen, isn't it a big mistake?"

    Lei Xiang is not angry, but what the Taoist Empress said is true. What Wu did during his reign in the past is definitely a wise king.  Her level of enlightenment is no less than that of the saint kings in history. Among the more than twenty star emperors in the Changsheng Dynasty, there are only three or five people who can compare with her, including the founding ancestor Zu Jian.  But the reason why Empress Wu created a prosperous age is because she valued people's livelihood over the strong, was open-minded and people-oriented.  If the empress wants to be comparable to the Wu family, or even surpass the Wu family to become the true emperor among women, now is an opportunity, but it depends on you, the empress, whether you can do it or not.  "

    There was a moment of silence behind the bead curtain, and Lei Xiang went on to say that if the empress could be like the Wu family in the past, she would govern with an open mind, put the people first, and pay attention to people's livelihood.  The world was at peace, the people were prosperous, and the horses were released to Nanshan, and there were no more weapons. Even though some of the vulgar things about men in the mouth of empresses were difficult to understand, word of mouth was better than the historical writing.  The empress is naturally comparable to or even surpasses the Wu family. Even though the Wu family has merit, she also has great faults.  It was precisely because of the Wu family's usurpation of power that the Antarctic Immortal Star lost its inheritance and the core's power foundation was severed. As a result, the country had no wise king. Later, when the previous generation Sirius invaded, the Central Plains was left without a leader.  "

    "Now, the grasslands no longer have soldiers to fight, and the Central Plains no longer suffers from ringworm. As long as the empress is willing, we can open the northern border and encourage people to move to the grasslands, and then use the now mature method of turning sand into soil, along the way.  Build a new city toward the grassland?Encourage people to migrate with the temptation of land. In this way, a hundred years from now, there will no longer be a grassland or a central plain in the world!  The entire grassland, which is as vast as the Central Plains, will become fertile soil and a paradise for the people of the Central Plains.  Such a monumental achievement is almost comparable to the achievements of Emperor Zujian in founding the country in the past.  The empress¡¯s good name will be passed down to future generations. We should express our gratitude to the empress for her great kindness!  "

    These words not only shocked the lady behind the bead curtain, but also Ouyang Hui and Lei Xiao!

    ¡°As Lei Xiang said, if it is possible to turn tens of thousands of miles of grassland into fertile soil, relocate people, develop agriculture, and build new cities, there will no longer be a Central Plains grassland in the world.  Such a great achievement is indeed comparable to the founding of the Antarctic Immortal Dynasty thousands of years ago!

    What shocked them was that Lei Xiang actually gave up such a tremendous achievement to the empress in front of him!

    ¡°Don¡¯t he think this is a great opportunity to go down in history?  !

    There was a silence behind the bead curtain. After a long while, the empress's voice came out: "Your Majesty Lei Xiang, I would like to ask, how can we move the people away from the northern grassland where it is always bitterly cold?"  If they were forced to relocate, I'm afraid there would be huge complaints.  "

    Lei Xiang smiled and said that this matter is extremely simple and naturally requires the people's willingness.  In fact, the world is bustling with people, and what they are looking for is nothing more than a word of profit.  Many people practice hard, and it is precisely because of them that the higher their strength, the higher their status, the more respected they are, and the more wealth they can have.  And many people are just useless people without the ability to practice, and all they want is to make a little money to support their families.  Those who are not ambitious just want to keep their children warm, while those who are ambitious just want to make more money, eat well, and wear gold and silver.  These can all be classified as benefits. As long as there are enough benefits, what is the difficulty in developing the north?  "

    "Appreciate further details."

    "The method is very simple. Just tell the people that the right to use the land they develop belongs to them completely, and tax will be exempted for a few years, and then the tax will be discounted for a few more years, until ten or twenty years, or even dozens of years later.  , and then tax according to normal conditions. Land is the foundation of the people and the wealth of the people. As a result, many people will rush to the north to plant trees and cultivate land. "

    "But this is only useful to ordinary people. People with some wealth may not take it seriously."

    Lei Xiang chuckled. Are there more ordinary people or wealthy people in this world?  What's more, some wealthy people will want to earn more wealth.  As long as we open up land exchange and allow people to sell the land they have cultivated, more people will flow into the north.  But now that there are no more soldiers on the grassland, this is a perfect opportunity!  "

    After a pause, Lei Xiang continued, even though there are many ferocious star beasts on the northern grasslands, if the people go there more and make more money, they can naturally pay to hire strong men to help them kill the star beasts.  Even though the strength of some star beasts is beyond the capabilities of ordinary adventurers, if a bounty is placed, there will always be stronger people to deal with it.  It really doesn't work, haha, Lei Mou's cultivation is not just for fun. When Lei Mou needs to be used, it is naturally his duty to use it.  "

    There was silence for a long time behind the bead curtain, and then the voice of Empress Houtu came out. Your Majesty really thinks so. In this way, within a hundred years, there will indeed be no distinction between the Central Plains grasslands.  Looking at the entire continent, there are Chinese atomic citizens everywhere. Those who can implement this policy should go down in history and be remembered by all generations!  However, Your Majesty Lei Xiang, this plan came from you, why should you let me do it?  "

    Lei Xiang laughed. He had a good plan and it was easy to boast, but if he really had to take action, it would not be an ordinary pain.  Lei Mou has always been lazy, but now that Sirius is dead and the situation of our star is slowly improving, Lei Mou has no ambition and feels that it is time to retire after success.  I just want to hold my beautiful wife and concubine at home and live a life of desolation.  But as a Star Emperor, it may be difficult for him to have such a day, so the empress must not thank Lei Mou, but you, Lei Mou is giving up his choice!  If your Majesty agrees, I'm afraid there will be no peace in the future, and countless trivial matters will be enough to annoy you to death!  "

    After saying that, Lei Xiang burst into laughter, and laughter also came from behind the bead curtain. Your Majesty is really a strange person. Countless people have had their heads crossed and dreamed of the position of Star Emperor. You actually regard it as a burden?  If these words get out, I'm afraid it will hurt a lot of people's hearts.  "

    After a pause, Empress Houtu continued, but if I ascend the throne, I am afraid that all the men in the world will speak nonsense. I can't stand that anger, and I will kill you if I can't say it.  Does Your Majesty have any objections to this?  "

    Lei Xiang laughed and said, "Why do you need to be on the same level as those people?"  To be honest, I have never felt that men must be superior.  I think my wife should too, my mistress is not a good-tempered one, and to be honest, my eldest daughter's temper is not that good either.  So the empress could have solved the matter by other means, why did she have to use a knife or a gun?  As the saying goes, if you compare goods, you have to throw them away, mother.We can open the door wide and open education to both men and women.  We can also open up official careers and allow women to participate in politics. Haha, I think if others don't tell me, my wife will be very interested.  If anyone is dissatisfied, the two sides can compare.  "

    Speaking of this, Lei Xiang looked back at Ouyang Hui and said with a smile, "Don't tell others, just say that I, my brother and sister, in terms of official positions in the Changsheng Dynasty, are definitely prime ministers. Do you think that's okay?"  "

    Empress Houtu laughed loudly and said: Your Majesty is really different from ordinary people. With such knowledge, even if I live for more than a thousand years, it will be difficult to compare!  "

    Lei Xiang smiled lightly and said that the empress was being modest. In fact, there were many records of these in the civilization of the previous generation, but the empress may have been too focused on other aspects and ignored them.  In fact, although the civilization of the previous generation caused serious damage to the star beneath our feet, there was also a lot of wisdom that was very advisable.  Now that the empress has obtained Noah, she must learn from each other's strengths and choose some rules and regulations suitable for the current Star Glory Continent, which will be a blessing to the continent.  "

    Empress Houtu was silent for a moment and said, "It seems that your Majesty, you really want to give up your throne?"  "

    If Lei Xiang¡¯s laughter was not sincere, why would he waste so much time talking?  Aren't you afraid of wasting your saliva?  "The Internet does not jump."

    "Then" Empress Houtu's voice fell silent. Your Majesty knows that when I do things, I not only look at the results, but also the rewards.  Your Majesty is so noble and honorable, and I am convinced of it. However, I think I cannot be like Your Majesty. What will happen if I am greedy for power?  "

    Lei Xiang¡¯s smile gradually cooled down, and he sighed, Dao Empress knows that worrying about power is actually a very tiring thing.  And there are too many delays.  If nothing else, just look at the kings and grandsons of these twenty-seven vassal kingdoms. Except for Tang Dahai from Dali Kingdom, how many of them can reach the Star Lord level?  They can't even reach the Star Master level. Is it because they are not qualified?  Don't forget, when King Wu Mu granted the title of prince to all the countries, these twenty-seven kings were all outstanding heroes in the past. Which one is lower than the Xing Zong level?  But look at their descendants, why are they so unworthy?  "

    Empress Houtu did not answer, Lei Xiang sighed and said that power is the easiest way to corrupt and degenerate people. If you are obsessed with power all day long, how can you have the time to practice?  And cultivation is just like sailing against the current, not advancing but retreating.  Although the empress has semi-god-level strength now, I bet that if the empress ascends the throne, her strength will fall below that of the Nine Star Saints in a hundred years!  In the past, all the Star Emperors were amazingly talented people, but why couldn't even a being like my teacher fail to break through to the demigod level?  Just because I worry too much, it is a great blessing to be able to maintain my strength without losing strength, let alone go one step further.  "

    "Furthermore, when one stands high, one often regards all living beings as ants. If there are no restrictions, and if an emperor really can live forever, then later on, the mind will naturally change, and the wise emperor will gradually turn into a tyrant. How many emperors have been in ancient times?  Who wants to live forever, but who can live forever in the end? And once he becomes a tyrant, even if I don't take action, there will naturally be righteous men with long swords who will take off the tyrant's head. Not only will his reputation in the previous life not be repaid, but his body will disappear.  , the family is completely destroyed, why is this why?"

    There was silence for a while behind the bead curtain, and Ouyang Hui and Lei Xiao even raised their hearts in their throats.

    Because what Lei Xiang said was so rude!  It will be impossible to endure Tu Niang Niang¡¯s temper from now on!

    Sure enough, after a while, Empress Houtu¡¯s voice sounded from behind the bead curtain. ¡°Your Majesty, are you threatening me with these words?¡±  "
