"It's not easy. You finally changed the color of the pet, it's no longer dark." With a smile and taking relaxed steps, Shani came in from the entrance of the garden. "What kind of creature is this? If it's a dragon, your head is too big, right?"

"This is not a pet, but a child. Xiao Jin, whose full name is Jin Marigos. It has the characteristics of you and me in his body, and I used magic to awaken his dragon energy. According to the habits of the dragon race, since his first energy spit and the last energy stimulation came from me, he is my child, our child." Feiqi grabbed the dragon's wings with one hand again, lifted him up "facelessly" and carried him to Shani. "At present, he just has a name, and his surname does not have it. When you decide your mother's surname, just continue that surname to him."

"Our child? This is great! But why continue my last name instead of your name Hall? It's not that I don't want to, but I feel a little strange." Shani was both surprised and surprised. She gently hugged the little dragon over and hugged him in her arms like a conditioned reflex. The little golden dragon sniffed it, probably because she smelled the smell of the dragon clan's bloodline, so she curled up and closed her eyes comfortably.

"The palace is very noisy. They are discussing the heirs of the empire. It is a waste of time to discuss this at this time. If this dragon uses Hall's surname, they will think I want to use this dragon as the heir. Considering the infinite lifespan of the dragon, those people must go crazy and will involve part of my energy. They are just blind and refuse to accept the fact that I have an infinite lifespan."

"Your dragon form was very majestic just now! If you saw it, you would probably give up, right?"

"It's not a good thing for me to give up." Feiqi glanced at Xiao Jin, and then told Xia Ni to take care of her, especially to let Xiaolong understand how to control his power and not accidentally demolish the castle. The little dragon was pretending to hear it, turned over and yawned very undespicable, and kept pretending to be asleep with his eyes closed until the servant brought the food over.

"First of all, we need to teach him to read and control his own strength, and then learn magic runes." Feiqi touched the scales of the dragon. On the other side, Shani was tearing the pieces of meat and feeding the dragon piece by piece. "Shani, learning magic is the only way for him to grow up. Don't relax, don't be fooled by his cute and sloppy behavior."

"Gee, he's licking my fingers, itchy!" Shani was having fun, so she didn't take it too seriously. The dragon clan's life is extremely long, and unless it encounters dry elements - or take Xiao Jin's special situation as an example: magic is exhausted - it will not die naturally. Although a newborn dragon can speak, it is a child who is completely a child, and should focus on playing first. This is what Shani longed for when she spent her childhood on Elf Island.

Feiqi saw this scene and how could he not understand. He could force Shani to agree, but there was no need to be so nervous. The golden dragon egg is just a adjustment to Feiqi's life, not the core, and it is also not a key step in the plan to save Yongli Continent. Shani can handle it no matter how she is willing, at most she feels a little regretful for the little Jinlong. After all, once she develops a playful personality, it will be too difficult to change it back.

"There is another note: before Xiao Jin's body is 20 meters long, don't take him to find Alissa. She has the ability to turn Xiao Jin back to an ordinary golden dragon and remove the bloody closeness between us and Xiao Jin."

"Will she do that?" Shani immediately became alert when she heard the news.

Feiqi nodded: "It's possible. On the one hand, you can't underestimate the Dragon Clan's pursuit of the purity of its bloodline, and on the other hand, you have to consider her experience. After being used by mutation for so many experiments, Alisa is likely to pursue the ultimate in this regard, so she has some compulsive actions."

"Wait, what about the dragon eggs she and Andrew gave birth to? Is there a pure dragon inside?"

"Yes, it's true that there are three dragons, but they will regard Andrew as their father after they are born. What are Alisa doing lately, do you know?"

"The letter says that she is busy hatching eggs and rarely shows up every day, and basically Andrew goes to see her."

"That's good. As long as she wants to hatch the dragon eggs as soon as possible, she really likes Andrew." Feiqi nodded and stopped talking about the topic. Xiao Jin, who was standing beside him, held a large piece of meat chop in his mouth, turned his head slightly and secretly observed their expressions, like a child full of ghost ideas.

"You little dragon, don't just think about eating and playing," Feiqi stretched out his hand and placed it behind the little dragon's ear. Touching the scales and muscles would make the dragon very comfortable. "You have to learn and protect your mother. If she can't fly, you can take her flying; if someone comes to hurt her, you can hurt that bad guy. You can go to my study to check out those books about magic and runes. If you don't understand, you can also ask the black cat. Have you seen it? It's hidden under the flowers there."

Feiqi asked his black cat demon pet to protect Shani at all times. He always habitually hid in shadows or places with shades, waiting for Shani to call. Whenever someone felt that she was hostile to Shani, the black cat would appear, and Shani would pick it up, which happened from time to time when Shani met some guests. Everyone thought it was His Majesty's cat, but they didn't know that the cat could summon Feiqi and could also use Feiqi's magic power to cast spells.

The black cat's hidden ability is useless to a dragon. Xiao Jin can feel the slightest vibration and can "hear" the sound of energy fluctuations, so whether it is tangible or invisible, it is impossible to deceive the dragon's senses. He stared at the cat and the cat stared at him, and the two creatures quickly divided the relationship between superiors and subordinates. Xiao Jin found that he had been demoted again, so he tried to bite two bites on the meat chop to vent some depressed little emotions.

"Feich, is it because I'm overthinking or do you really have this meaning: Do you want to be away from Xiao Jin and me for a while?"

"Yes, I'm ready to take action in the Second World, a decisive battle that can determine the direction of the situation. If this decisive battle is won, there will be no battle of the same scale and danger in the future, and the hope of saving the Yongli Continent can also increase by 50%. "Feich knew that Shani would be very worried, so he took the initiative to reach out and hold her. "I need to focus entirely on the preparations for this battle. The most important thing on the Yongli Continent is you, and I can only let go for the time being. You are very important in my heart. As long as you want, you can change my thoughts and my focus."

"How sure are you to win this decisive battle?"

"The odds are all fake and can be manipulated by humans. I can't tell you the chance now, because this behavior can change the chance and affect the direction of the situation." Feiqi licked his lips and gently held Shani's hand. "There is no chance, I will win."

Shani took a deep breath, sank to the bottom of her lungs, and then slowly vomited out. "Okay, I believe you will win, and I will pray to the Goddess of Truth, to win for you. Well... If you have to devote yourself to the decisive battle, do you have to deal with the emperor's work so that you don't have to worry about it."

"Yes, I have three days to deal with the backlog of work, and after that, I'll leave it all to you." Feiqi blinked, looking like he was thinking, but in fact he just said what he had prepared. "I informed all the ministers today and deal with the serious prisoners of this year while having a meeting tomorrow. Asking for the killing and pardon are the king's power."

Shani nodded: "It's true. It would be not good if the prisoners were delayed until next year."

The four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter are cycled. The stern winter is the last season suitable for execution before the arrival of the hopeful spring. On this day when everyone is not willing to go out, Feiqi raised the work group and the death row prisoners reviewed by the inner court, let them eat, and then wait in the cold wind. He must first complete the exchange with important officials, determine the main work next year, at least the focus of the work in spring and summer, and then deal with the prisoners.

"The ten magic towers were completed early, saving a lot of money for the national treasury." The finance director Good looked much older. He needed to hunch his back when he spoke, and his breath was not very good. "Your Majesty, if this money is used for spring plowing, then..."

"No, the investment in spring plowing has been enough. I saw that the investment in seeds, farm tools and oxen has doubled. Although it is OK to continue to invest additionally, the results will not be so good." Feiqi walked down from the towering iron throne, came to Goode, and reached out to put his hand on his back. "This is the important thing now."

Mana flowed out of his palm and entered Goode's body through his skin. The transformed spells allowed the old man to temporarily gain the recovery ability of a troll. His aging bones and organs full of dark injuries were quickly recovered. In just a while, Goode slowly stood up straight, his chest thrust, and he became more confident in speaking. He held Feich's hand with both hands, kissed and expressed his gratitude.

"No need to do this, I just make you healthier, but I can't extend your life. Magic can extend your life, but this kind of magic can only work with your body by being emitted by your own soul. It is useless to rely on others to perform it." Feiqi gently patted Good, signaled him to sit down, and said, "So, the most important thing in the empire is magic. Once there is a balance, half will be given to the magic school and the other half will be invested in my magic tower. In this example next year, all of them will be invested in the magic tower and build it as soon as possible."

Goode had to nod. Originally, the emperor "saves" the money, so the emperor has the final say on how to use it.

"Your Majesty, I have another solution to increase investment in farmland." Lei Tingbai unexpectedly raised his hand and said with a proud smile: "Your Majesty, the Magic Research Association has completed the construction of the Type 7 Agricultural War Golem. It has completely met the design expectations, and the cost is very low, it is..."

"Wait for a moment, is the golem you mentioned the kind of potato golem that I once showed me?"

"Yes, the potato golem is type 1. We continued to improve it later. Now it is type 7, which is very useful."

I have to say that Feiqi wants to applaud Thunder Bai's unremitting spirit. The earth golem that can grow potatoes on his body has a weird idea and is very difficult to implement. Feiqi would rather design something like a magic tractor than spend time on the golem. "How much does a golem cost? How many cows are there in terms of work ability?"

"A four thousand gold coins are much better than a cow. Well, their work nature is different, and it is not very good to compare."

"The demon with four thousand gold coins... can it still be called a golem? It's completely a toy. You won't really make a toy, right?" Feiqi's mouth curled up slightly, and everyone knew that it was a smile.

"Of course not, the Type 7 Agricultural Warrior Golem is very good..."

"It doesn't matter." Feiqi waved his hand. "Forty-hundred thousand gold coins, as a special investment, whether you make or continue to research, the golem project only has so much funding. You must find ways to get profits and support this project. Balance between income and expenditure is the minimum requirement. Moreover, the most important work of the Magic Workshop and the Magic Research Society is still my magic tower."

"Although I still feel that it's a little bit small, it's enough to be open. I believe that as long as you achieve results, Your Majesty will continue to invest more." Lei Tingbai was obviously very happy, and showed more than eight teeth when he smiled. "Your Majesty, since you pay, do you want to name the golem?"

"The Potato Golem is pretty good. The name of your Agriculture War Golem is really awkward, giving people the feeling of an agricultural and military golem. I don't really think about the strength of your golem. After all, it's only cost 4,000, so it's better to call it the Potato Golem."

"Then it's the Potato Golem!" Lei Tingbai didn't care about the name, she only cared about whether she could complete the project.

There are many trivial matters in the empire, but the overall economy and society of the empire are still not developed enough and have not accumulated enough to the point of change. Therefore, "following the old system/tradition/habits" can solve most of the problems. What Feiqi needs to do is to invest the empire's resources in promising magical undertakings, rather than staying in inefficient feudal agriculture and castle construction that has lost its historical status.

In the past, whether it was a king or aristocrat, they could only search for farmers who were not well-off, which made it difficult to develop basic agriculture. In addition, they threw most of their money into castles, armor weapons, horses and knights, so the entire society was in an inefficient cycle. After Feich appeared, castles, armor weapons, horses and knights were eliminated, and he was willing to spend money to improve basic production. Therefore, the overall efficiency is constantly improving, and it can support Thunder White's newly created golem manufacturing industry.

This is an improvement that makes Feichi happy, so even if the Thunderbolt may be a toy, Feichi will support it. At the same time, in addition to the progress, there will always be people standing still, and some will even regress, which also need to be dealt with. Those prisoners who stand outside and wait for the ending are.

After the inner court meeting, Feiqi took everyone to see the prisoners. As in previous years, he personally asked each prisoner if he really committed a crime, if he regretted it, and then observed the fluctuations of their souls. Although this is still a very subjective way of judgment, in the imperial system, the emperor is the highest justice.

Three people were pardoned, two of them were sent back for retrial, and the other was not killed until death, and instead detained and worked to atone for sins. The remaining twelve people were not sent to the guillotine, and Feichi stopped the guards' actions. When those who thought they were spared from death, Feichi said with a cold voice with a smile.
