Grassland, Golden City.
Since the opening of trade, the Barbarian Kingdom has become relatively stable, and their development from the original source has also been quite fast, but there is a big restriction on the grassland.
That is, they can only survive as tribes, and cannot survive as city officials!
The few cities that are unique to the grassland still occupy very advantageous positions.
Only with the tribute from various tribes could it survive.
There is no way around it, the grasslands are too restricted and can only be managed in a harsh way, because they have to constantly migrate and move around in various territories.
This means that if the queen really wants to send officials down, she may not be able to take care of these people.
Sun City, Queen's Palace.
Since becoming queen, Bai Xiaoxiao has been busy every day and has always been concerned about many things on the grassland.
But now it's much better. The grassland has been developing steadily, and there are no wars on the border.
Recently, her queen has been paying close attention to the Three Kingdoms Hunting in their Great Zhou.
Afraid that something might go wrong.
Especially when they learned that the Shu Kingdom, an ally of the Great Zhou, had betrayed them, they were extremely anxious and wanted to send troops to support them directly. Fortunately, the news finally came back that nothing had happened.
"Your Majesty, there is news."
"Eunuch Lu is truly formidable. Facing a massive army, he directly broke through the Miao Kingdom's defenses and drove them back to their homeland. He also compensated them with a considerable amount of goods and cities."
"If you ask me, this Eunuch Lu is definitely a genius when it comes to commanding battles. He seems to have rarely lost a battle, and he's truly capable of winning battles from thousands of miles away, masterminding his strategies."
Bai Xiaoxiao finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and thought to herself, this is the man I like, how could he be bad?
Gently stroking her slightly bulging belly, Bai Xiaoxiao thought to herself that she was pregnant now, and the child also had her own flesh and blood, but the child's biological father had always lived in that identity.
She was really worried that when her child grew up, he would ask her where his father had gone and she would not be able to answer.
"How about this, I'll write a letter, and you rush and have someone pass it to Lu Yun."
"Yes, Queen."
…
After receiving compensation from the Miao Kingdom, their army naturally returned to the capital. This time, the border had changed to the border with the Shu Kingdom and directly became Fengcheng.
These newly accepted cities naturally need to be well managed, which is also a big challenge for the Zhou court.
The capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
After the news of victory on the front line came, the people were naturally very happy, but what made them even happier was that the Miao State directly chose to cede the city to them.
This immediately ignited the sense of pride in the hearts of the people. For the people of the Great Zhou, the more powerful their soldiers were, the happier they were and the safer they were.
Imperial Palace.
Ye Jiajia naturally also received this news. She breathed a sigh of relief and thought to herself that this was great. They won the battle, which meant they would be back soon. When they came back, she would be able to get rid of this identity.
Staying in this room all day and unable to go anywhere really made him feel depressed, and he also understood how difficult it was for Liang Jing.
She has been practicing during this period and her strength has now recovered.
"His Majesty……"
Prime Minister Wang An rushed in and said quickly, "Your Majesty, we have won a victory at the border and have returned to the capital.
Your Majesty, shouldn't you come out and preside over the government affairs? Have a good meeting with these ministers and discuss how to manage these newly acquired cities."
"Your Majesty, you can't stay in this palace all your life without going out. It's not right for you to just stay in this hall."
Ye Jiajia was so angry with Wang An that she gritted her teeth and kept asking her to go to the court to discuss this matter with the ministers. How could she, a martial artist, understand all this?
I just keep annoying myself every day. What if this is exposed?
"Prime Minister, why are you so anxious? I will discuss this matter with Eunuch Lu after he returns. Didn't I tell you that I will come out when I want to? Prime Minister Wang, there is no need to be so anxious and come here every day to talk about it."
Wang An sighed and explained helplessly, "It's really because His Majesty hasn't been to court for a long time, which has a great impact on the officials in the court."
"Besides, Your Majesty has never been like this before."
Ye Jiajia said angrily, "I have always been diligent and caring for the people. Can't I just take a good rest? Do I have to take care of so many trivial matters every day?"
"With you ministers sharing my worries, I am already satisfied. Don't worry."
Wang An hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty, I am truly doing this for your own good. If Your Majesty does not attend court for a long time and does not preside over state affairs, I am afraid that the ministers in the court will be allowed to increase their power."
"Your Majesty, if you continue like this, I'm afraid that the taxes will be over-taxed, and the power of those ministers will be infinitely magnified, which will also be a threat to Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty can consider this carefully."
"Although Your Majesty now has the Western Factory as his eyes, there are still some things that cannot be prevented."
"I hope Your Majesty can give this matter some careful consideration."
After hearing this, Ye Jiajia finally realized why this old man Wang always asked her to go to bed. It turned out that he was worried that something like this would happen. However, she really couldn't do anything about it because her ability was limited.
"Okay, Prime Minister Wang is concerned about the country and the people. I am really happy about this matter. I will naturally keep it in mind. Don't worry, I will definitely live up to Prime Minister Wang's trust and will come out to preside over the government as soon as possible."
Wang An shook his head helplessly. He really couldn't understand why His Majesty had to stay here and not ask anything.
Even though the Miao State ceded their city and they won the battle, Your Majesty didn't seem to care much and looked very indifferent. It was too strange. This kind of thing had never happened to Your Majesty before!
Just like that, after five days, the army still hadn't returned. They were still walking on the road. However, Lu Yun and Liang Jing had already set off in advance, and they were very fast, riding fast horses.
There was no other way. Liang Jing was afraid that if he didn't go back, the court would really explode. He had better go back as soon as possible to take charge of the situation and replace Ye Jiajia. Miss Ye had indeed worked hard.
"Your Majesty, I think you should be more careful."
"I'm a very dangerous person. Many of them want to kill me. Now that I'm leaving, I'm afraid many people know about it."
"Maybe they'll stop me halfway."
Liang Jing shook his head and said, "Don't worry, you won't be that unlucky in my Great Zhou."
