The treasure thieves of Teyvat rob Shenhe

Lin Ye slapped Lilupal on the head and sighed inwardly.

Lilupal is a pitiful person after all. She cannot control her desires. Is love between men and women the only thing she sees?

Friendship is not love?

Walnut is so angry that he is shivering!

Lin Ye didn't know about Lilupar's past. The sandstorms of the desert and the years of history had concealed her bloody and cruel past.

During the five years of getting along, Lin Ye has developed a very good impression of Lilupal. After all, when you are in an environment full of intrigue, there is only one person with whom you can confide and talk about the "outside world", so it is inevitable that you will get closer to him.

Lilupal looked at Lin Ye's departing back and gave him a cold smile.

She had had enough and her patience with Lin Ye was exhausted. From now on, she was determined to take revenge.

The name of this revenge is prison.

Hate comes from love, hate comes from not getting what one wants. Lilupal came up with a punishment that was completely different from Olmaz's. It was not a three-generation excommunication, but a trial that destroyed the forest in the form of a three-generation excommunication...

It didn’t matter if she couldn’t be redeemed, as long as Lin Ye failed and was trapped here forever like her.

In the palace gradually enveloped by darkness, the dancer's wine-red eyes flashed with madness.

……

After a long and complicated founding ceremony, Lin Ye officially ascended the throne and became the king. He moved the capital and established the city of Gur. Later generations used the Gur calendar to record the major events that took place in that year.

It took Lin Ye two years to defeat the Tisna tribe, eliminate domestic rebellion and consolidate his rule. At the same time, he contacted the town spirits of the Eternal Oasis and made friends and allies with foreign forces such as the Sapphire City Tuledulla and the Warrior City Saleh.

The fight for the throne came to a temporary halt, and Lin Ye worked hard to govern the country and implement reforms.

Chapter 618 Happy to be a father

Mada Mountain is located in the northern center of the desert. Lin Ye once looked in that direction while searching for the former site of the Gur City Temple in the desert.

Rather than calling it a mountain, it is more like a natural disaster area. A violent storm rises up into the sky like a towering pillar, piercing through the clouds, with no one knowing where its end will be. Sand and rocks are flying nearby, the sky is dark, and people cannot get close. It is a wonder of the sea of sand, along with the magnificent scene above the Red King's Mausoleum.

But this is the eternal oasis, the cemetery of the goddess of flowers.

The city of Gul was built around the Eternal Oasis. Thanks to the relationship with Lilupar, the residents of the city can use the Eternal Oasis's networked pipe water supply system. The greenery and water that mortals longed for in the past can now be easily obtained.

Lin Ye met Lilupal's sister, Feligis, who was also a great town spirit. She was appointed by the Red King as the governor of the Eternal Oasis. Feligis was not interested in the mortal king, but the Eternal Oasis wanted to accept the city of Gul, so she met him because of Lilupal.

At this time, Feligis had not yet confined her body in the machine, which was the structure encountered when going to the Eternal Oasis in the plot of the Flower Spirit Book.

Perhaps because Lilupal was not there, Lin Ye and Feligis' conversation was not long. They briefly exchanged opinions and confirmed their cooperative relationship.

In this regard, mortals have a great advantage. Mortals need oases, but town spirits do not need humans.

Everything depends on the oracle of the retired King of Red Sand.

Lin Ye's impression of Feligis is that she is a rational, cold, and taciturn blonde lady.

I don’t understand how a sharp-tongued, yandere, neurotic Lilupal could become friends with her... Maybe Lilupal wasn’t like this before.

Feligis's impression of Lin Ye was that he was polite, humble and wise. Lilupal always had a good vision.

After the overthrow of the tyrant Huvastra, there was a lot of work to be done and it was undoubtedly not suitable to start another dispute. Lin Ye did not follow the example of giving up military power over a glass of wine and letting Ma Nanshan go.

In the desert civilization, there are still kings like Huvastra who covet the new regime and are resentful that Ormaz's opportunity can be connected with the Eternal Oasis.

The war came to a temporary end. As for governing the country, Lin Ye recruited another team. He had intended to train civil servants when the general situation was already decided.

At the central level, due to the country's national conditions, the idea of directly copying the system of three provinces and six ministries was abandoned. Instead, Lin Ye drew on the systems of other desert kingdoms and combined the valuable experience accumulated by countless pioneers in practical reforms in previous lives, and came up with the evil monarchy.

The Huvathra Dynasty, or perhaps all desert civilizations, were slave states. Due to weak productivity, every civilian was allowed to sell and trade slaves, and many people became wealthy businessmen by relying on this business.

The children of slaves are slaves, the children of commoners are commoners, and the children of nobles are naturally nobles.

During the war, Lin Ye implemented the military merit system, relying on his own reputation and means to suppress disobedient nobles, so he did not have to suffer the same fate as Shang Yang, who was torn into pieces by five horses.

The military merit system to a certain extent broke the aristocracy's monopoly on high-level positions. Slaves could kill enemies in exchange for their freedom. This system greatly enhanced the army's combat effectiveness, and every battle was like a wolf pouncing on its prey.

Just like how the Huang Chao Uprising almost wiped out the aristocratic families, in peacetime, ordinary people have no way to rise. Everything is determined by birth, but everyone has a life, and the knife inserted into the body does not care about your identity; those who deserve to die will still die.

The appearance of Lin Ye caused a group of nobles to fall, and a group of commoners and even slaves became the new nobles. Even if there were people who hated them, they were a minority. Overall, the benefits outweighed the disadvantages, ensuring that Lin Ye's generation's prestige would remain at its peak, after all, he was the founding monarch.

At the local level, Lin Ye weighed the pros and cons and only enfeoffed three princes and demarcated their territories. The rest of the areas were strictly controlled. The appointment of local officials was decided by the central government, as well as a series of powers such as taxation. In a word, it was centralization.

You can't get fat in one breath. It was not easy for Lin Ye to make the city of Gul enter the feudal society. As for capitalism and socialism, they were too far away and there were no conditions for them.

Putting down the butcher knife does not mean that Lin Ye has become soft and gullible. During his one year in Jule City, Lin Ye has killed many people, including many heroes.

Some people take advantage of their hard work even though they have no merits and become easily arrogant. Even if Lin Ye warns them again and again, he cannot control their hearts.

So Lin Ye used one purge after another to tell his ministers to behave themselves.

This was Lin Ye's first time as a leader, so there were definitely some oversights in governance. People praised him for always being right, but in fact Lin Ye knew that he had made mistakes. The most important thing was to admit one's mistakes and correct them without losing face.

For the ministers, the forest on the throne is even more unfamiliar. Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger, and they have to guess the emperor's intentions all the time.

But to ordinary people, Lin Ye was obviously a wise king. He promulgated various policies that benefited the people and prevented perfunctory responses. He enforced them very strictly. Once an official was reported and verified, his fate would be miserable.

The ministers were afraid of Lin Ye, but the people loved him very much.

And so, another five years passed.

The city of Gur (referring to the Ormaz Dynasty) has escaped the shadow of war, and the people of the sand here generally live better than those in other kingdoms.

Lin Ye attached great importance to education. Official academies were established locally, and admission was free to encourage reading. The state would provide subsidies.

This policy can be maintained partly by relying on the supply from the Eternal Oasis, otherwise the financial resources of an average kingdom would not be able to sustain it.

Feligis still imprisoned herself and dedicated her power to maintaining the Eternal Oasis. This was not for the People of the Sand, but for the "sleeping" God of Flowers.

One day, Lin Ye, who had transformed himself into the King of Scrolls and was busy from early morning to late at night every day, was reviewing memorials. In the past, the people of the Sand were accustomed to recording on stone slabs, and those who were more luxurious used wool. Lin Ye set up a special institution to be responsible for research, and later invented paper to replace the old method.

This memorial was submitted by a minister who was a devout believer in the Red King, requesting Lin Ye to build a temple.

The identity of the Red King is very useful, but disadvantages also emerged after the founding of the country. If you respect the Red King as the supreme leader, you must build some temples to show your piety, right?

Lin Ye felt that the temple was useless. Apart from wasting the people's money, it also served to support a group of believers who did not engage in production.

He learned from Feligis that the Red King had been in the maze for a long time and had not come out, and He was unable to reward His believers with miracles.

Besides, he was the one who conquered this country, and it had some relationship with King Chi, but not much.

Lin Ye pondered for a moment, then wrote four large characters in a flamboyant style on the memorial: Definitely next time!

Of course, it was expressed in a calm and elegant way.

next.

Lin Ye was about to open another memorial when he felt something in his heart. He looked up and saw Lilupal holding the hand of a delicate little girl.

"This is?"

"My daughter, I named her Shireen." Lilupal smiled.

Lin Ye was stunned when he heard this.

Over the years, Lilupal seemed to have become a different person. She no longer pestered him and behaved like a queen, ruling the country.

In order to stop some people from talking, Lin Ye pretended to marry Lilupal as his queen. Otherwise, in the desert where the average age of marriage is 14, is it appropriate for Lin Ye to be a king and still be a bachelor?

Why choose Lilupal?

On the one hand, Lin Ye was afraid that choosing another girl would be dangerous. On the other hand, Lilupal seemed to have figured it out and knew that pure love was invincible. She gave up and Lin Ye was relieved...

"Who is her father?" Lin Ye wondered.

He was not angry about being cuckolded. He did not love Lilupal and nothing of the kind had ever happened.

However, just like when a former fangirl suddenly fell in love with someone else, I still feel a little melancholy inside.

Lilupal stared straight at Lin Ye.

"Ok?"

Heaven and earth can bear witness that I have never betrayed Ahe!

The reason why the emperor is so sought after is that this position is unique and supreme. Even Lin Ye has to admit that the temptation of royal power is too great.

The ancient emperor, apart from being a puppet, can be said to be the center of the country. The state apparatus is an extension of your hands and feet, and the entire country will serve you with all its strength.

A single thought can decide the life and death of millions of people. No one dares to go against your will. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are all top-notch experiences. All the beauties in the country are your potential wives. Isn’t that cool?

Most loyal emperors also had concubines, but Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty only married one wife in his life and made her the empress.

A model of a pure love god of war and a role model for Lin Ye to learn from.

Love cannot be without physical desire, but this alone is just a sex partner.

Lilupal is such a beauty, how could Lin Ye’s body resist playing some games with her, but this would be unfair to Shen He.

When Lin Ye thought about what Shen He would think after knowing this, he became extremely panicked. What if Shen He hated him and left?

Lin Ye wants to spend his whole life with Shen He.

Ten thousand Lilupals are no match for one Shenhe.

It may be fun to have a harem, but a loyal man must be very handsome.

So, Lin Ye felt it was absurd when he saw that Lilupal was hinting at something.

"I am the queen, and my daughter is a princess, so she is naturally your daughter, and her biological father. We were not born from our mother's belly either. Don't judge the spirit with mortal concepts." Lilupal said.

"So that's how it is." Lin Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Ye looked at the little girl named Xilin. She had white hair and purple eyes, was petite and cute, and wore a moon-white dress. She looked like an elf. She hid behind Lilupal and looked at him timidly.

"How old is she?"

"Five years old."

"Why didn't you bring her here earlier? Where did she live before?" Lin Ye asked puzzled.

"I don't want to distract you." Lilupal said softly, "Shirin lives over at the Eternal Oasis."

It's a bit like a remarried wife bringing a little burden with her, haha.

“…Okay. Tell everyone that Xilin was weak and had been kept in the deep palace. Now she has recovered and can come out.” Lin Ye said.

This is just the right time to block those ministers who are asking Lin Ye to have more children.

Being a king is not actually that free. There are some things that a bunch of people keep asking you about, and they worry about your children more than your parents do.

"Shilin, call me father." Lilupal turned and said to Shilin.

Shireen seemed to be in a daze, ignoring Lilupal's instructions and not speaking.

Lilupal's face turned cold, and he was about to blame her, but Lin Ye said quickly, "It's normal for her to feel uneasy and nervous when she suddenly has a father she has never met. If you blame her for this, she will hate me instead."

Xilin came to her senses and realized that her mother was angry. Her face turned pale with fright. After hearing Lin Ye's words of rescue, her mother blamed her unexpectedly. At this moment, Lin Ye's image in Xilin's heart was particularly tall.

She subconsciously looked at her nominal father.

Lin Ye is no longer young. After ten years of experience, he has grown a beard, has deep eyes and a mature temperament. At the age of twenty-seven, he is already halfway into the realm of an uncle.

It was about the same age as Shireen’s father.

Lin Ye noticed Xilin's gaze and gave her a kind smile.

If the ministers witnessed this scene, they would probably be moved to tears.

Lin Ye did not resist the appearance of a daughter out of nowhere. Instead, he was quite happy. After all, she was so cute, which aroused his hidden daughter-obsession.

Xilin's silver hair reminded Lin Ye of the child he and Shen He had. Would he also have silver hair?

Shen He's white hair is not congenital, which means it is most likely not inherited genetically.

When he was in Inazuma, Hayashino almost witnessed Chiyo and Reizenbo's children growing up. Although he held Doki and Mitsuyo in his arms many times when they were young, they were not his own children after all, so he felt a little regretful.

Lin Ye stood up, walked to Lilupal, squatted down, and extended his broad palm to Shilin.

Shireen glanced at her father's hand, then looked up and timidly observed Lilupal's expression.

Lilupal nodded.

Xilin stretched out her fair little hand and placed it in Linye's palm.

Lin Ye held it gently and spoke softly.

"I will be your father from now on. When there are outsiders around, please call me father, little Xilin. You can feel free to do so in private."

"Good~"
