Chapter 581: Can the Cunning Rabbit with Three Burrows Defeat My Scorched Earth Strategy?

In short, because of that humiliating defeat, Fengye's situation has not been satisfactory recently.

The master behind him is scolding him for not living up to his expectations, and his colleagues around him are mocking him for wanting to stand out. Looking around, he is really about to become a lonely minister.

He has been recuperating at home for several days. In addition to his wife and children, only the Marquis' father-in-law sent a letter home, and it was sent secretly.

[You, alas...]

Then, since you can be filial to Duke Li Guang who is thousands of miles away, why can't you be filial to Her Majesty the Queen?

So after Ji Ming took the initiative to go to treat him, the desperate Earl of Maple Leaf changed his face and became a supporter of the Queen on the spot.

And as the Queen's presence and power gradually increased, the quality of talents who showed goodwill to her and wanted to rely on this big tree also increased a lot.

At least she will no longer feel like she is the head of a circus, and those who come to apply for the job are either clowns or beasts, as before.

Feiya selected some of these people, and with Earl Maple Leaf as the leader, she formed a new faction with its own unique elements.

Although it is still affiliated with the King's Capital Faction, because the backer behind them is Her Majesty the Queen, it is considered the "Queen's Faction".

However, because this name is too specific, it is easy to cause other factions to target and hate, affecting their relationship between the government and the opposition.

Considering that most of them are young people who have just entered the circle and are eager to make achievements, their official name is the Young Faction.

So the question is, since it is the Young Faction, does this Young Faction also include...

Ji Ming: "???"

"Uh, don't point the spotlight at me! I am not from any faction, I am from the Apple Faction!"

It's a pity that the identity was given by himself, but whether he believes it or not is chosen by others.

So even if he doesn't want to jump into this pool of water, after the rumor that "the queen is cruel and ruthless, forcing the God's Chosen to submit obediently" spreads.

As the heat machine of the capital, Ji Ming, who was already surrounded by all kinds of gossip, objectively voluntarily joined the young faction.

Then the funny thing happened. Almost at the same time, a large group of young nobles, both men and women, also formed their own secret society.

That's right, they are determined to become flower protectors, defeat the evil Queen Fia, and rescue the innocent God's Chosen who were repeatedly oppressed by her!

So this is...

Flower Protector?

Qixia City gradually restored its tranquility in a stable and improving trend. Although the pain brought by the catastrophe is difficult to calm down, at least everyone's eyes have been put back on the front.

In the blink of an eye, June ended, and the huge capital welcomed the hottest July of the year, which was also the day when most farmlands across the country had a bumper harvest.

In order to further enhance her presence as a king, at Ji Ming's suggestion, Fia decided to officially designate the first Sunday of July every year as the Glorious Harvest Festival.

On the day of the first Harvest Festival, she also helped to hold a grand harvest celebration in the central square of Qixia City, attended in person, and delivered a harvest congratulatory speech.

For the nobles, they just thought that the little queen was playful. As long as she didn't continue to make trouble on the mountain, she would be lively. It would only cost a little money, which was better than continuing to make the old man angry.

For the common people... Wuhu, I thought we paid taxes just to let the masters eat, drink and gamble, but it turns out that we can get money back!

In fact, the Harvest Festival is a traditional festival of the people in various places, but some places celebrate it, some places don't, and the day is not certain.

On the day of the celebration, people from all over the country naturally flocked to the capital and began to ruthlessly take advantage of it, and by the way, see what the new king looks like.

As a result, when I stood below and looked up, oh, there are no six eyes or eight arms, this little girl looks pretty beautiful.

After asking someone, I found out that her ancestral land was attacked and she was the only one who survived. That was quite pitiful, as she became an orphan at such a young age.

After further questioning, I found out that she also swore to mourn for her father and brother, not marry, and be a vegetarian for three years. She was so filial, and she was really different from other masters.

In addition, this celebration was initiated by others. Whether it was the night fireworks, the parade of floats, or the outdoor drama performances, they were all free to watch!

Unconsciously, Feiya's personal IP was at least promoted a lot in the hearts of the people, and it was a little taller.

Especially in the last paragraph of the congratulatory message, she announced that she would rest with the people, and unless there were special circumstances, the agricultural tax this year would be reduced by 30%.

This was the truth that Feiya herself realized from Ji Ming's paper-since the small favor has not been spread, the people will not follow it, then this king will spread it once!

Just because of the presence of pioneers this year, the commercial tax has skyrocketed a lot, so she simply proposed to benefit the people and reduce agricultural taxes.

This is also the reason why she went to the Holy Mountain four times in just 30 days last month. It is really difficult to get money from the nobles without some explosive news.

Fortunately, with the joint efforts of her and the young and strong faction, Feiya finally succeeded and successfully launched the first true king order after ascending the throne.

——Benefit the people, rest with the people, and reduce taxes!

Huiguang is an agricultural country with many plains. The 30% reduction in agricultural taxes must be closely related to the civilians in the audience.

At first, they couldn't even believe their ears, and they woke up from their dreams after seeing the guard knights start posting new regulations everywhere.

There are peddlers who come to the city to do business and plan to make a small fortune during the celebration.

"I didn't quite understand what your Majesty said before, but I understand this sentence!"

There are old farmers who took the opportunity of the celebration to enter the capital and wanted to take their family to see the world.

"Brother, what does it mean... What! Can I pay 30% less grain this year?"

There are also ignorant teenagers who came from a poor family and entered the Royal Capital Academy with their talent and hard work.

"Your Majesty is virtuous, and it is a blessing for the people and the glory!"

Looking at the sea of ​​joy under the stage, Feiya's heart was not touched emotionally.

She just sighed slightly in her heart. After playing this card, she couldn't continue to go to the Holy Mountain to command the princes for at least three months.

And the news of reducing agricultural taxes spread rapidly to the four fields of the kingdom as the pegasus streaked across the sky.

When the nobles who suffered losses pulled awkward smiles and accepted the praises of themselves and Her Majesty the Queen from the poor people under their rule,

In the north of Yangyue Star, in the long-silent Deep Forest Kingdom, new changes occurred.

At first, no one cared about this disaster.

It was just a weed, a big tree, a wildly growing vine, and an expanding forest.

Until this disaster was closely related to everyone, until the third prince woke up and found that morning glory had grown on his bedside.

"???"

He was completely awakened by this blue-purple color in a daze. He stretched out his hand and hesitated, but finally did not rashly try to touch it.

Because following a small cold breeze, he suddenly found that these flowers had broken through the glass of his bedroom and drilled in.

Is this normal?

The third prince trembled in his heart, wrapped the quilt tightly and shouted loudly.

"Come on, come on!"

If it were normal, when His Royal Highness suddenly shouted, three or two beautiful young maids would immediately run in in panic, considering how they should put out the fire for their master.

But today, there was nothing, and nothing at all. Except for the whistling sound caused by the cold wind blowing through the glass gap, the third prince could not hear any response.

It was as if this was just a demo of a 3D sandbox game, and the world outside the door had not yet been made and did not exist at all.

Something was wrong!

Ten points, even nine points, were wrong!

The suspicious third prince immediately turned over and got out of bed. Before he landed, he had already dressed neatly with the help of the storage bracelet on his wrist that he never left.

He did not walk towards the door, nor did he break the glass. Instead, he sent magic to a specific place on the wall and opened a secret door hidden behind the bookshelf.

A cunning rabbit has three burrows, and so does the prince.

A correct version can be found in 16-9-1-book-1-bar!

As one of the crown princes, as long as he spends the night, whether it is by water or underground, he must have a secret passage to escape.

This is to avoid waking up and falling into the tiger's mouth, stabbing the king and killing the driver, and losing everything!

So although his shouting did startle the enemy, strange knocks and stiff shouts soon came from the bedroom.

But before the knocks turned into collisions, the shouts turned into roars, and the existence outside the door used brute force to tear down the door.

The machine was running, the secret door returned to its place, and the third prince had disappeared without a trace in his room.

"Damn it!"

Cursing secretly, the third prince did not dwell on which one of his side, or which ones, was the inner ghost.

Instead, after entering the secret passage, he drank all kinds of acceleration potions stored in the cabinet at hand one by one, and pulled up the BUFF.

Then he ran forward like lightning, following his own escape plan, and did not hesitate to meet up with his guns.

His haste was not exaggerated at all, because reality is not a detective novel, and many things actually do not require reasoning and searching.

Less than three minutes later, a huge roar and heavy and dense footsteps came from behind him.

Obviously, the group of traitors had already forcibly demolished the entrance to the secret passage through extremely brutal and indiscriminate attacks!

But it was precisely because of his decisiveness and ruthlessness that the third prince had already reached the end of the secret passage.

He only needed to make one last turn to escape!

Ha, victory is always reserved for those who are prepared, and disaster is always one step slower than me, win!

However, just as he showed a smug smile on his face, he accidentally discovered something in the corner of his eyes.

A closer look revealed that it was actually a small section of plant roots that had penetrated the stone ceiling and was exposed to the air.

"This..."

The third prince felt a chill rising from his back for no reason, as cold as the wind that blew in from the crack in the bedroom window before!

But the existence on the other side of the passage seemed to have started running wildly, and his pitiful first-mover advantage was being quickly equalized.

So he did not dare to hesitate or pause, and threw everything behind his mind, crossed this last bit of distance, and pushed open the iron door at the end of the road!

Although everyone knows that the three crown princes will definitely decide who is superior in the end, or even fight to the death, but rules are rules.

According to the order left by the ancestors, the crown prince's army and flags are not allowed to enter the capital at any time, and can only be stationed in their respective fiefdoms.

Therefore, this secret passage does not lead to his personal guard station, but to the military camp of the troops of the Duke of Chongshan in his faction.

It was also an old rule passed down for many years. As a vassal of the Lionheart King, he was on duty to guard the northern gate of the capital, and there must be no mistakes.

Since this is a military stronghold, there should be a tense and extremely strict scene outside the iron gate.

Therefore, the third prince was even prepared to be attacked by panicked guards after leaving the door, and he opened the shield in advance.

However, when he pushed open the iron gate, he was surprised to find that there was not a military camp outside the door, but...

Another thick and deep darkness?

"..."

After just one second of thinking, the third prince gritted his teeth and blasted a high-level earth-shaking spell at the ceiling.

This is a magic that imitates the principle of earthquakes and can make the earth crack and let the opponent fall.

After using it on the sky instead of the ground, the effect was not discounted, and a crack was successfully torn above his head.

Fortunately, there was no darkness outside the crack, but a bright light that allowed him to fly straight out and escape from the underground.

But when he flew to the middle of the air, he found that sometimes it might be good to hide underground, at least he didn't have to accept this terrible reality.

Because the Duke's army, which he had just inspected a few days ago, had disappeared along with their garrisons!

Instead, there was a vast forest that was dazzlingly green, frighteningly green, and full of vitality, but it always felt dead and made him uncomfortable.

If it was just this, it would naturally not scare the knowledgeable Third Prince, but what if he found the missing soldiers after a closer look?

The high-level detection technique was enough to penetrate the tree cover, so he saw with his own eyes that a soldier with his eyes closed was rolled up by vines and stuffed into the crack of a big tree like a meat roll.

Then the trunk of the tree began to "wriggle" slowly like plasticine, gradually changing from a round and straight trunk to a tree man whose appearance was a little abstract, but the lines could definitely be seen.

The most important thing is that the level, fluctuation, and even the skills scanned by this tree are exactly the same as that soldier!

So...

So!

The third prince was shocked and scanned the entire forest with his eyes fixed. He found that this was not a forest at all. It was clearly tens of thousands of silent tree people!

And it was actually dynamic, because there were still unconscious soldiers who were constantly transformed by the newly grown trees, giving birth to more tree people!
