The ruler of the Flowing Sand Kingdom said, "Xin Xin is right. Ah Hai, write a letter to your sister, preferably one that confirms it's you. Also, tell him to keep an eye on Peng Mu. My elder sister told me that when Xin Xin got into trouble, the Peng family's cousin was just following orders. Of course, she also had malicious intentions, but the one who orchestrated everything behind the scenes is Peng Mu. Since Peng Mu likes your sister, he might go looking for her."
Gu Xin nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, the secret passage in the cave that took me away has disappeared. If Peng Liulang wants to go to Langge Kingdom, he will definitely take the waterway. Xiaoyu is married in Fuzhou, which is by the sea. Peng Liulang might really go to see her. Tell her not to pay attention to Peng Liulang. What if Peng Liulang goes crazy and takes her away too!"
Cheng Huaijin nodded: "I understand. However, I still hope that Peng Liulang didn't go to her."
The ruler of the Flowing Sand Kingdom knew his adopted son well. Since the conversation had already reached this point, he changed the subject: "You've captured the Sand Bandits, but what do you intend to do with them?"
Gu Xin took another bite of lamb chop, wiped her mouth, and said, "Uncle, I want to make the Sand Bandits work for me. I have a plan here, although I don't know if it will work, I still want to try it. If it succeeds, not only can it break the alliance between Langge Kingdom and Yunhai Tribe, but I can also go back myself."
The ruler of the Flowing Sand Kingdom became interested: "Oh? Tell me about it."
Gu Xin began to speak, and the King of Liusha listened with nods, occasionally adding a few words to refine Gu Xin's plan.
After Gu Xin finished speaking, she herself felt that the plan was perfect: "Uncle, you are so amazing, why didn't you expand the Flowing Sand Kingdom back then!"
The ruler of the Flowing Sand Kingdom sighed, "I'm old, I can't fight anymore."
Gu Xin frowned, pursed her lips, and said, "Uncle, this won't do! I've studied medicine for several years. I'll take your pulse and get some medicine to help you recover. Although some of the medicinal herbs sold in Liusha Kingdom are different from those in Da Zhou, Brother Xiao Jin took me out for a trip a couple of days ago, so we should be able to find some substitutes. Uncle, you can take good care of yourself and lead Brother Xiao Jin to fight our way back. Then, Aunt Yan will be in Shennv Kingdom, you will dominate the west, and my Emperor Uncle will be in Da Zhou. I can then roam freely across this entire land!"
"Hahahaha..." The King of Liusha was amused by Gu Xin's smug little look and laughed, "Alright! Then I will work hard to make Xin Xin walk sideways."
He was just saying it; he knew his own body well, so he didn't take it seriously.
Although he is in poor health, if he can still make contact with the Goddess Kingdom and the Great Zhou Dynasty, he can hold out until the three powers are in a state of balance of power.
...
The next day, the King of Liusha issued an edict recognizing Gu Xin as his goddaughter and bestowing upon her the title of Princess Xin Xin, granting her the same treatment as Prince Ahai.
When Gu Xin appeared dressed in women's clothing from the Liusha Kingdom, the few ministers of the Liusha Kingdom were captivated by her beauty. Little did they know that in the near future, Gu Xin would not only conquer them with her looks, but also with her medical skills and martial arts.
And so, Gu Xin settled down in the Flowing Sand Kingdom, began her plan, and incidentally helped the Flowing Sand Kingdom's ruler recuperate.
She also instructed Cheng Huaijin to gather all the soldiers of the Flowing Sand Kingdom and begin training them using a very comprehensive training method.
Similarly, she also found many ingredients that originally existed in the Quicksand Kingdom but had been abandoned by the people, and she led the people to plant them.
