Prince Qing nodded, letting out a barely audible sigh, but quickly spoke:
"Actually, I was always a little worried about the rebels' sudden landing in Nangang."
"Now that most of the territory is in the hands of the traitor, he would not fight a battle he is not sure of winning, so he must have come prepared this time."
"It seems we won't be able to defeat them as easily as we anticipated..."
Upon hearing this, Jin Fengluan's face immediately fell.
"How can you say such a thing?"
"Why do you always boost the morale of others and diminish our own? Do you really think our army is easily defeated and has no fighting power at all?"
Seeing that Jin Fengluan looked unwell, Prince Qing shook his head and said, "It's not that bad."
"Sending Kim Jeong-hee to lead the troops is a wise move. It's good to test the rebels' fighting strength first so we can make further plans instead of putting all our eggs in one basket."
"However, I think that in order to increase our chances of winning, we should try to win over all available combat forces."
"The southern barbarian lands are not too far from here. Perhaps we can send someone there to show our stance and get them to stand on our side to suppress the rebels together."
Upon hearing this, Jin Fengluan stroked her chin and said, "Oh? But the large army they sent earlier has been completely wiped out by the traitors. Can they still send troops?"
Prince Qing said expressionlessly:
"As long as people don't all die, there will be soldiers."
"We can lure them with great rewards. Besides, Qin Ze has already killed so many people. I think they must want revenge."
Jin Fengluan pursed her lips and chuckled, "Alright, then go and do it right away. You go and make the arrangements."
Prince Qing shook his head, rubbing his eyelids, and said, "Let Pingwu handle it."
“Since returning from Nangang, I haven’t been back to the mansion. With Jianzhong dead, I only have Jiande left. He is a sentimental person, and he is depressed because of this beast. I can’t watch him sink into despair.”
"I need to have a good talk with him, give him some advice, and help him adjust as soon as possible."
"Sigh, I think it's time to get him married soon and have him have an heir as soon as possible."
Jin Fengluan nodded slightly: "That's right, that's the only way."
"Then you should go back first."
"I need to go to the Imperial Advisor. Tonight, I saw that the Purple Star is exceptionally bright, which must mean something good is about to happen. I should ask him to do a divination."
