Chapter 178 Chapter 170

"I'm old and I can't take care of young people's affairs." Xiao Lie said calmly while leaning on the back of the chair.

"So, you want to trade the lives of a city's people in exchange for your son's growth?" Su He frowned.

Really confused.

If Xiao Lie told lies again, with his skills, she still didn't feel that he would lose any power after abdicating, otherwise his son would be in a hurry.Su He really didn't expect to let the lives of the people go regardless of this.

When Xiao Lie heard this, his brows were sullen: "Su He, you have been a breeze for 20 years, and I am just a person who has played tricks for 20 years. What are the people of a city? They have died in my hands all these years in order to stabilize the country. If there are not ten thousand people, there are one thousand, cough, cough..."

Xiao Lie coughed for a while, then said with a sigh of relief: "When you left suddenly, do you know what kind of life I lived afterwards?"

Su He didn't understand: "When I left, I assisted you in arranging Xiao's internal affairs well, and the rest can be handled with your ability without much effort. Could it be that I missed something?"

Seeing the other party like this, Xiao Lie knew that he was playing the piano to Niu. The other party didn't understand what it was like when he left suddenly, and he went crazy looking for someone: "Forget it. You don't understand."

Su He: ...

Forget it, he doesn’t understand if he doesn’t understand.

Su He re-examined what he was most concerned about: "I can deal with your physical problems. Get well quickly, take care of your son, and don't think about anything. For the food problem of the Xiao Kingdom, first buy it from the Chu Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom. For a few years, search up and down for edible crops with high drought tolerance and high yield, and find professional people to try to breed drought-tolerant varieties. Now that the national treasury is empty, a war will hurt a country."

Wen Rentang was still the emperor of Chu State after all, with a much deeper mind and resourcefulness. Compared with this brain, Xiao Yu's impulsive appearance was just a gift.

Xiao Lie looked at Su He: "So, you are a disciple of the Upper Realm sect. By this time, can't you tell me your specific identity?"

Su He glanced sideways, pondered for a while and said, "Jiqingzong Jianfeng is the first."

Xiao Lie leaned on the table and suddenly smiled: "No wonder."

The royal family in the mortal world still knows a little about the upper realm. Xiao Lie, the Jiqing sect, knows the number one sect in the upper realm, and Yifeng's position as the number one sect is so detached.

Xiao Lie has lived for so many years, his illness has made him have a stronger desire for life and health, now that Su He said that he can help him recover, he has nothing to disagree with.

His son, who is eager to seize power, still has time to practice.

"Okay. I understand. I will do as you say." Xiao Lie smiled.

After the negotiation was settled, Su He checked the other party's pulse, and after finding out that the problem was not serious, he took out a elixir, the best elixir in the cultivation world can grow muscles and bones.

Ordinary people use it to strengthen their bodies and eliminate diseases and misfortunes.

Xiao Lie didn't doubt the elixir that Su He handed over at all. Su He had no reason to harm him. After taking it with water, he felt a warm current spreading to his limbs, and his weak limbs immediately began to fill with pain. Strength, Xiao Lie felt that he was like an old body rejuvenated with vitality, some white hairs also turned black, and he didn't have the feeling of wanting to cough from time to time in his throat, and his whole body suddenly recovered.

"This is the panacea?" Xiao Lie was a little bit moved by its effect.

"I really don't know what the upper world looks like, it's amazing."

"It's similar to the human world, divided into different clans, sects, each with its own scheming, but now it has begun to stabilize." Su He Qianqian said.

"When you're healthy, let's quickly deal with the affairs of Lin'an City. I still have things to do, so I won't stay in the palace any longer."

Xiao Lie got up immediately: "How long have you been here? Stay here for a few days. You and I catch up on the old days. We haven't seen each other for many years. You don't want to know about my experiences in these years?"

Zhou Xuanming came back early with his cloak, threw it aside, and sat on his seat to observe Xiao Lie.

If you don't understand what you said before and after, let's reminisce about the old days.

Zhou Xuanming got up slowly, with a hint of sharpness and deepness all over his body, and he was not inferior to Xiao Lie, who had been the emperor for many years.

"What my master said is that the master still has important matters, so it is inconvenient to stay in the palace."

Xiao Lie had long noticed this handsome young man. Ever since he saw the two of them, the young man's gaze had been following Su He, sizing him up from time to time, judging his threat like a rival in love.

"This is your apprentice? I didn't expect you to accept all of your apprentices. You are an extraordinary apprentice." Xiao Lie said with a smile that had no clear meaning in his words.

Su He didn't understand what Xiao Lie meant, and simply felt that the other party was praising him.

Her apprentice's ability, appearance and temperament, everyone had to say something unusual when he stood outside. In front of his old friend, Su He didn't have the modesty to pretend, smiled and nodded slightly, and said solemnly: "Of course, my apprentice."

After saying this, Xiao Lie was annoyed, and Zhou Xuanming felt relieved.

Master said "my apprentice", as if Master acknowledged that he is her property, and Master is also his property.

In the end, under Xiao Lie's persuasion, Su and the others stayed in the palace for a few days.

In the past few days, as the news spread in the palace that the Supreme Emperor's health had improved, the situation in Xiao Guo's court changed instantly.

Originally, although Xiao Lie had abdicated, he had not completely stayed away from the center of power for many years, and firmly controlled some government affairs. Before he was seriously ill, Xiao Yu took some power from Xiao Lie and expanded it rapidly. Many ministers in the court have long been dissatisfied.Now that Xiao Lie is in good health, he has accumulated power for many years and quickly regained part of his power.

The emperor handles government affairs every day, and Xiao Lie has to look over important government affairs, and the final decision must be made by Xiao Lie who thinks there is no problem.

About the siege of Lin'an City and the war with Chu State, originally Xiao Lie was dispensable, but when that person said it, he refuted it.

Not long after, Su He received a message from Du Hu, saying that Lin'an City had withdrawn its troops, and the imperial court began to open warehouses to release grain.

Stayed for a few days.Su He left the Xiao Kingdom's palace, and Xiao Lie also saw each other far away.

Zhou Xuanming followed Su He, and said slowly, "Master, does the emperor of Xiao Kingdom know your daughter's identity?"

Su He didn't know why the second apprentice suddenly asked this question, and looked sideways: "I don't know."

"Xiao Lie likes you, do you know that?"

Su He was a little surprised when he heard the words, and then he laughed: "How is it possible. Xiao Lie's temperament is born to be an emperor, and his interests have always been the most important. Besides, the image of his teacher has always been a man, how is that possible."

At this moment, Zhou Xuanming somewhat understood Xiao Lie's complaints to his master, but the master did not fluctuate, the other party's mood.

"Understood, Master." Zhou Xuanming smiled and grabbed Su He's sleeve, and followed Su He out.
