Chapter 277 Sword Pointing to the World



"After we finish planting the fruit trees, we'll take Dad to the newly built nursing home in Bincheng for a physical examination.

It was my father who suggested this hospital to Your Highness.

Now that it’s built, it’s natural to let my father give it a try.”

Cui Min and Cui Xuan beside him chatted while working.

Cui Xuan nodded: "The nursing home can provide every citizen with a free physical examination.

His Highness has also waived all medical expenses for the people in the sanatorium. From now on, if the people have any headaches or fevers, they can go directly to the sanatorium.

It’s really convenient.”

Cui Min sighed: "Yes, Your Highness has really invested a lot this time.

The people were also happy.

Mr. Yan is the only one who suffers. His lips are almost blistered from all the work. He has to recruit people from time to time to sell seafood to Ningxi Country."

Cui Xuan was silent. He knew this Mr. Yan.

He is the one in charge of the financial power under His Highness. He likes to calculate left and right with an abacus on weekdays. After he finishes calculating, he always can't help but look at His Highness with resentment.

As a result, every time before His Highness came to the Government Affairs Office, he would secretly check his watch to see if Mr. Yan was there.

His Highness will only appear in the Government Affairs Hall when the person is gone.

Then Mr. Yan would come to the Government Affairs Office with an angry face, look at His Highness's frightened expression, and then grab His Highness to report on the business with Ningxi Kingdom.

Either the person was caught in the Zhenbei Palace or in the orchard.

The other side.

Ji Wan was observing the map of Donglin Kingdom.

"On the line, I feel that my speed is too slow.

There are a total of sixteen states in the entire Donglin Kingdom, and I only have four states and counties under my command now.

If I continue at this slow pace, there is no way I can ascend the throne of Donglin Kingdom within ten years."

Cao Ke didn't understand whether his prince was showing off or was really feeling sorry.

However, he still earnestly advised: "Your Highness, don't worry, as long as you fight your way into the capital and kill Ji Qin, you can become king.

And at your current speed, no one in the world can match you.

Whether it's the Ji Ze family, the Ji Yuan Tang family, or the Xie family, none of them can possess as many prefectures and counties and as many subjects as Your Highness does."

Ji Wan shrugged, thinking that Cao Ke was right. After all, the system said that as long as she became the queen, it would be fine.

He didn't ask what level or strength the queen was anyway...

"Beep, host, please don't play word games. This system is only designed to train you to become the Empress.

But we also don't want you to rush for quick success and do something that's detrimental to your foundation, causing years of hard work to crumble in an instant."

The system's voice was elusive and still cold.

Ji Wan sighed, and had already thought of a way to deal with it in his mind.

What the system said made sense. If she ignored the encirclement from the surrounding states and counties and fought her way into the royal capital, she would be truly alone there.

Always ready to donate your head to the enemy.

That would be too stupid.

But… "We still need to speed up. Within five years, I want to see ten states and counties become my jurisdiction!"

Now three years have passed and she only has seven years left!

"Ten states and counties within five years?!" Zhai Ning screamed, looking at the several generals around him in disbelief.

Mei Niang looked calm as she estimated in her mind the ten states and counties that His Highness had mentioned within five years.

It feels... not too difficult.

After all, Your Highness has so many soldiers under his command, especially after Your Highness conquered the Chishima Province.

The sea salt that was developed caused the price of salt to drop to a level that ordinary people could afford.

The sales of salt skyrocketed.

I think the number of troops is endless. If we recruit soldiers now, one person's spit can drown an entire state or county.

Tong Xin looked excited. This was another chance for her to make military achievements!

Ding Wu was also thinking that although His Highness's request was outrageous, it was not difficult to achieve.

With the combat effectiveness of their soldiers, they only need to guard against the immortal cultivators.

Fortunately, the gentlemen around His Highness are also outstanding among the cultivators.

So, it shouldn't be difficult.

What's more, there are two gentlemen who are constantly doing business in the royal capital.

So that His Highness can afford to support his own soldiers.

Liang Yan stopped sipping his tea and wondered whether Ji Wan's eagerness to attack Donglin Kingdom was aimed directly at Ningxi Kingdom.

Do you intend to confront Ning Xiguo?

"I think there is no problem with your highness's suggestion." Pan Zhuo calculated in his mind, if he followed the speed that your highness said.

It would be impossible for the soldiers to invade Donglin from only one side, so they would have to split into two groups.

If the troops attack in two directions, your Highness's soldiers can maximize the advantages of numbers and the teleportation array for transporting food and supplies.

So it shouldn't be difficult.

Ji Wan clapped his hands: "In that case, I will call Rucheng back now, tell him my intention, and have him prepare the army immediately!"

Zhai Ning was stunned... So fast?

Just by saying a word, he has already jumped to preparing the army?

Yan Peinan comforted her with a dark face: "Don't worry, Ruobing.

Your Highness has had this idea for a long time, and now he is simply informing us."

Zhai Ning looked at Yan Peinan in amazement, "Mr. Yan, why don't you talk about... the money?"

Yan Peinan was puzzled: "Why are you talking about silver and money?

The money for the war within ten years has already been set aside.

The silver I calculated before was after deducting the silver used for war!

Our Highness has achieved what he has today by fighting wars, so we must set aside enough money for the war.

If we don't save some, what if we are short of money during the war and can't fight? How can we make further progress?
