But of course, Di Xin wouldn't listen to him. He turned to Bi Gan.
Bi Gan, as an inferior minister, was not so determined. He only lowered his head and said,"I hope Your Majesty will be careful with this matter."
Du Yuanxi didn't object to it, because he was in charge of the Water Resources Department recently and often greeted the Dragon Clan.
Ao Jia, the Crown Prince of Eastern Sea, was the Dragon Tribe's Water Conservancy Chief.
Although Ao Jia was a kind person and did things according to the rules.
Du Yuanxi and he also hit it off at first sight and would drink and chat from time to time.
Therefore, the demons didn't have much feelings for the alien races.
After all, if one were to investigate carefully, the dragon race was also a demon beast.
Di Xin listened carefully to the objections of the ministers. They all said that the nine-tailed fox was a demon beast and could not be married.
The second reason was that they were afraid that the people would betray Great Shang because of marrying Nine-tails.
After all the ministers had expressed their objections, Di Xin said,""First, the nine-tailed fox is not a demonic beast, but an auspicious sign. In the era of Emperor Yu, he had a nine-tailed fox of the Tushan Family as his wife.”
"Secondly, the public will be disgusted. Naturally, the publicity is not good enough. "Therefore, when I marry the nine-tailed fox, I will be exempted from taxes for three years and announce to the world that I have obtained auspicious signs. Great Shang is the orthodox human race.”
Di Xin had long been prepared. He had been planning to marry the nine-tailed fox not long after he transmigrated.
The reason to convince the ministers had already been considered countless times.
He had originally planned to shift the blame to Nüwa.
Because Goddess Nvywa didn't care about them, she wouldn't jump out and say that she didn't send the three demons to Di Xin's side.
Because she was a saint. A saint could scheme and be silent, but she would not lie.
After thinking about it, he decided not to provoke her too much to prevent her from exploding.
After all, he was a Saint. He could not afford to offend him.
Di Xin's words made the ministers quiet down. After listening carefully to what Di Xin said, it seemed to make some sense!
Seeing that the ministers were speechless, Di Xin continued,"Although the nine-tailed fox is a demonic beast, it's fine as long as she doesn't harm people. In the future, as Great Shang developed, they would definitely come into contact with demons. Evil demons had to be killed, but demons that had never done evil naturally could not kill the innocent. Just like the human race and the dragon race, couldn't the human race and the fox race coexist peacefully?”
Shang Rong wanted to say something but was pulled back by a few ministers.
Since the king had already said this, he definitely wouldn't change it.
Moreover, there were also benefits to the king taking in a concubine. In the future, he would not have to go to court every day.
These days, he had been attending court every day.
He couldn't stand it!
The ministers were convinced by Di Xin, but Bigan walked out and said,"The matter of marrying Empress Nine-tail is considered settled. However, this tax exemption was a heavy burden on the national treasury, and it could not even support it.”
"I've thought about it long ago. The sales of paper are stable at the moment, and the income is quite high. Furthermore, I have prepared a few ways to fill the national treasury.”
If it wasn't for the fact that it would be too shocking, Di Xin would have wanted to be tax-free for ten years.
How could he support his ambition by fighting for the harvest from the fields with those bitter people?
Money would definitely come from industrialisation and commerce.
These were the ways to earn money.
Now, the most important thing for the people of Great Shang was to have children.
However, to have a child, one had to be able to afford it.
Emperor Xin took the opportunity to marry the nine-tailed fox. It was an auspicious thing from the heavens. He exempted them from taxes and allowed them to leave behind surplus food. That way, they could have children.
This was simply killing two birds with one stone.
Bi Gan and the others didn't know what Di Xin was thinking. Otherwise, they would have been so shocked that their eyes couldn't move.
Unexpectedly, the king's seemingly simple decision had been carefully considered by him. He had even considered the consequences many times before making the best choice.
Di Xin had taken everything into consideration, and the officials could not say anything against it.
The matter of marrying the nine-tailed fox was confirmed just like that.
He would officially enter the palace on an auspicious day.
Now that he calculated the time, it should be time for Phoenix Cry on Mount Qi.
He also needed His Majesty to seize the fishing ship highland first.
The identity of Nine-Tailed Fox was worth a good operation.
The first step of taking a concubine was naturally to send someone to deliver the betrothal gifts and convey the imperial edict.
Di Xin thought for a while and finally let Bi Gan and Wen Zhong go together to show their respect.
After all, he had to put on an act when he said it was auspicious. Otherwise, it would be terrible if others did not believe him.
Xuanyuan Tomb was located eighty miles outside Zhaoge City.
Wen Zhong and Bi Gan brought their servants and betrothal gifts. The team was very large and it took them more than an hour to reach the Xuanyuan Tomb.
Wen Zhong was a third-generation disciple of Jie School. Although he had never cultivated immortality, he was also proficient in spells.
As soon as he arrived, he smelled a faint demonic aura. However, Emperor Xin's instructions before he left made him suppress the thought of eliminating the demon in his heart.
Instead, he took out Di Xin's imperial edict and read it.
"The Human Emperor issued an edict saying that I heard that Empress Nine-Tailed is virtuous, gentle, and pure. She is an auspicious sign and is specially ordered to enter the palace to serve her.”
As the imperial edict was read out, rays of golden light appeared, and the power of human dao appeared.
"My daughter accepts the decree."
A stunning woman slowly walked over. Her waist was so slender that one could hold it. Her skin was as beautiful as white jade, and her eyes were as bright as autumn water. Even if she did not do anything, men would fall into her eyes.
Every step she took was graceful and charming.
In the group, apart from Bi Gan, who had the Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart, and Wen Zhong, the third-generation disciple of Jie School, everyone else was immersed in the beauty of the nine-tailed fox.
She only needed to curl her finger and he would die for her.
"Bold demon fox, put away your yao arts and quickly receive the decree.”The Heavenly Eye on Wen Zhong's forehead opened, breaking the charm of the nine-tailed fox and waking everyone up.
"My daughter accepts the decree."
Seeing that her spell had been broken, Nine-Tailed Fox only smiled. She stretched out her hand and the imperial edict flew into her hand.
At this moment, the power of human path surged. The imperial edict shot out tens of thousands of golden lights and landed on the nine-tailed fox.
For a moment, her entire body was glowing. When the light faded, the demonic aura on her body also disappeared without a trace.
This was the power of humanity that had helped her cleanse her demonic aura, allowing her to not be afraid of any magic tool that could restrain demons.
