Xiao Zhixing returned to Beizhou under the daylight, calculating his gains over the past few days.
It is gratifying that most of the subsystems of the Emperor System have been brought under his control.
We can only search for Mount Tai slowly, but we'll find it sooner or later.
Looking at the situation now, the four-nation alliance's offensive will inevitably slow down, giving Da Sheng and her two to three years to catch their breath and develop.
As long as our side is strong, she will be able to face any enemy without fear when they join forces again.
Xiao Zhixing stood up, looked up at the few sparse stars overhead from under the eaves, and smiled.
She is confident that she can quickly turn the tide on both offense and defense.
From now on, all of you in the Qian Yuan Continent, listen to my voice!
Shengjing, the Imperial Palace, Xianyin Tower.
Zhao Yunqi was also gazing at the morning star.
Luo Mangong stood quietly behind him.
"Lord Man, between you and Lovi, who is stronger?"
Luo Mangong bowed slightly, "This old servant is unaware; it should be a fifty-fifty split."
Zhao Yunqi smiled, "A draw? That's great."
After a long silence between master and servant, Zhao Yunqi turned and went downstairs, saying, "To attend court."
Luo Mangong flicked his whisk and followed, announcing, "Your Majesty, court is about to begin—"
The rising sun bathed every corner of the Qian Yuan Continent, from south to north, all living beings basking in the same light.
Xiao Zhixing still handled his business while watching the live stream, which at least helped him relieve some boredom.
Xiao Yuanshan stayed in that mountain village, bought a house there, and acted as if he wanted to live there permanently. He became a fisherman again, often chatting with several white-haired old men in the village to pass the time.
They look so relaxed.
Li Jun's situation was also interesting. When the news from Shengjing reached him, his expression was complicated.
[Yellow comment: Wait, what's with that expression? Relief? Angry? Confused?]
[Red comment: Does he think Li Ningxiu is not good enough for him?]
[Yellow comment: Although I like him, his behavior disappointed me. Li Ningxiu is his fiancée, and she's seriously ill. He doesn't seem worried about her at all. It's so unacceptable.]
[Green comment: He's ruthless, why would he worry about a woman he has no feelings for?]
[Yellow comment: I'll just say something, uh, please don't hit me, does Li Jun have someone she likes?] Quite a few people posted this.
The live stream chat was instantly filled with question marks.
[Red comment: Where did you get the idea that he has someone he likes? A man like that can fall in love? Don't be ridiculous!]
[Yellow comment: I think Ji Bai is the one with a crush, and so is Nian Chenghan, hehe, I'm a prince shipper, I think they all like the prince!]
[Green comment: You guys don't doubt that Li Jun also likes the prince, do you? ? ? ]
Everyone was stunned into silence. No, where did this incredible association come from?
[Yellow comments: Hey, don't confuse historical fact with TV dramas! They're rivals! Rivals!! Our Prince is the only one who matters!]
The barrage of comments immediately went off-topic.
Xiao Zhixing sighed, decisively exited, and went to watch Lin Rushu's live stream.
She had cleaned up half of Mengzhou, and with the cooperation of the Asayi father and son, Lin Rushu's land reclamation project progressed smoothly.
Atano, on the other hand, seemed to have a different view of Lin Rushu.
Look, the two of them went out on an inspection together. Lin Rushu was focused on his work, but the tips of his ears turned red from time to time.
The viewers in the live stream had sharp eyes and were all making a fuss, speculating whether he had a crush on Lin Rushu.
Xiao Zhixing chuckled helplessly; these relationships between men and women were indeed the most intriguing.
She quickly received a reply from Feng Zhen'er: The entire Dongzhou is warmly welcoming Your Highness's arrival!
After arriving in Dongzhou, Feng Zhen'er took a different approach, developing marine products and managing near-shore shipping. I heard that she even had a confrontation with a group of river bandits recently.
Yes, they are Shi Erbao's men.
Feng Zhen'er was bold enough to meet Shi Erbao alone on horseback. She reasoned with him, presented the facts, and fooled Shi Erbao until he was completely bewildered.
In the end, he agreed to join the maritime administration without much thought, and obediently became a law-abiding citizen.
Xiao Zhixing replied to Feng Zhen'er: I will definitely come in a month.
Once the martial arts tournament and negotiations with the Northern Barbarians are over, she must personally make a trip to Dongzhou.
The debate with Feng Yong will be exciting enough, and her trip to Dongzhou will be very interesting.
Speaking of Feng Yong, she didn't reply immediately this time. People from Shengjing sent her a message saying that the old man was furious and planned to lead his men to attack Beizhou.
Xiao Zhixing smiled broadly and said, "You've come at the right time."
At this moment, she noticed Zhao Yunqi's live stream, where they were discussing her request to take charge of negotiations with the Northern Barbarians.
Huo Jindao asked, "Did Prince Yuansheng discover something when he suddenly sent a letter?"
Zhao Yunqi nodded. "Yesterday, An Wuxi received a message from the Northern Barbarians, and this morning the Court of Colonial Affairs summoned the imperial physician."
He was clearly so angry that he fell ill.
He added, "Yuan Sheng has given instructions that she intends to reclaim Guixiong Pass."
There were no fools present; they immediately understood the gist of it.
Bai Fengmei said, "In that case, I think Your Highness's suggestion is quite appropriate."
Zhang Rengui said, "Negotiations between the two countries are not a trivial matter, and it is not feasible for her to be in charge alone!"
Bai Fengmei countered, "Does Lord Zhang intend to personally make a trip to Guixiong Pass?"
Zhang Rengui sneered, "An Wuxi is in Shengjing. We can negotiate in Shengjing."
"The situation on the front lines is constantly changing. If the long distance and delayed communication affect the important matters at Guixiong Pass and cause us to lose the initiative, can Lord Zhang bear the responsibility?"
Not to mention the prince's anger; if he ruins her plans, Zhang Rengui won't have an easy time.
The other ministers looked at each other.
Li Xiao stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I think Prince Yuansheng's suggestion is indeed feasible. As the commander of Guixiong Pass, she knows the Northern Barbarians very well, so it is most appropriate for her to take charge of the negotiations from nearby."
Zhao Yunqi asked Feng Liyan, "What do you think, Feng Qing?"
Feng Liyan said, "Your Majesty's permission is granted."
Everyone turned to look at Feng Liyan, wondering why he wasn't acting more assertively. Wasn't he always contradicting Xiao Zhixing?
Feng Liyan appeared calm, but only he knew how bitter his mouth was.
My second brother wrote that Luo Wei's forces in Da Sheng had been completely wiped out, and even the Snow Sand Valley in the Northern Frontier had been swept away. Mo'er returned empty-handed and was almost discovered by her people.
She also has two peak level three Heavenly Realm experts under her command, and countless Heavenly Realm experts.
They abandoned their original plan to deal with the Xiong family brat and dared not provoke her again for a while.
He glanced at Zhang Rengui briefly.
Well, there's also an ignorant and fearless individual here. With him raising the banner of opposition, I can temporarily hide myself.
Zhao Yunqi's expression remained neither angry nor pleased as he nodded and said, "In that case, I will grant Yuan Sheng's request to take full control of the negotiations with the Northern Barbarians at Guixiong Pass!"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Xiao Zhixing stopped watching and began to ponder the matter carefully.
The next day, an imperial edict arrived from Shengjing, and Xiao Zhixing led his men to Guixiong Pass.
Now that a direct road has been built and the army is traveling at high speed, she arrived in the new city in three and a half days.
All the generals came to pay their respects.
Xiao Zhixing ultimately kept Su Zhen and Xiao Dong.
"In this negotiation, Guixiong Pass can be reclaimed without bloodshed."
She casually traced a circle with her finger outside Guixiong Pass. "These are the key places, understand?"
