Gu Nian then looked at Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian and said, "Father, Mother, since Kuncheng doesn't need those things now, why not give half a box to Xinxin? Judging from what my brother-in-law described, Liusha Kingdom is currently far inferior to Yunhai Tribe."
The Yunhai Tribe had a plan to unify the west, and since the Liusha Kingdom was located in an area without any powerful nations, the Yunhai Tribe put them last. However, no matter how hard Xinxin and her group tried, they couldn't build a force stronger than the Yunhai Tribe in a short time.
Lu Zheng and Bai Er went to the Yunhai tribe as inside agents and cannot influence their decisions. In my opinion, Xin Xin's demand for large quantities of medicinal herbs from the Southern Frontier is simply a ploy to use poison. Based on what my brother-in-law said, the medicinal herbs Xin Xin possesses can only withstand the Yunhai tribe once.
If the Cloud Sea Tribe were to attack again, we'd need something to deter them. This half-box of supplies is enough to give the Flowing Sand Kingdom six months to catch its breath. By then, Lu Zheng and his men will be able to infiltrate the territory, and with more manpower on our side, we can increase our numbers as well.
"As long as Xin Xin and the others stay put, we, the Great Zhou, can completely handle Lange Kingdom and the west."
Gu Shouxin nodded: "Yes, I thought of that problem just now too. Let's do it that way."
Cai Xiaolian breathed a sigh of relief: "With this, Xin Xin and the others will have more time to train. The tribes around Liusha Kingdom might also form an alliance with Liusha Kingdom when they hear the news. After all, the entire western region isn't entirely under the control of the Yunhai Tribe."
The three time travelers, along with Gu Ren, talked for a while before going to sleep.
...
On the Peng family's main side, in Pengze's courtyard, the newlywed couple, separated from their spouses, showed their longing for each other through their actions.
After a thoroughly enjoyable time, the young couple were still wide awake.
Peng Ze held Gu Hui's hand: "Huihui, aren't you worried about the baby in your belly? Do you really want to go to the Flowing Sand Kingdom together?"
Gu Hui patted him on the shoulder: "There won't be any children for now. I've calculated the time. My period just ended the day before yesterday, so it's perfectly safe these next few days."
Peng Ze: "...So you mean, we absolutely have to go?"
Gu Hui said firmly, "I absolutely have to go! I watched Xin Xin grow up, and she suffered a lot. If I had a child, I would definitely be very irritable. Besides, my little brother is not even a year old yet, so I can wait a couple more years."
Peng Ze: ...Okay, if my father-in-law and mother-in-law are so amazing, I'm sure he and Huihui can be just as amazing.
Actually, Peng Ze wasn't that eager for a child. The Great Zhou was unstable, especially the Peng family. He didn't know if there were any hidden spies. To be honest, he was worried about Huihui being pregnant while he was away from home.
Madam Peng Si had been in charge of all the household affairs, but now she was clearly no longer trustworthy. With the old man taking over the reins, it would probably be a while before things settled down.
Let it be a few years!
Gu Hui turned to look at Peng Ze and asked, "Has Xin Xin grown taller?"
Peng Ze gestured: "She can now stand up to A Yuan, she's grown taller than last year. However, in the generally tall West, she's still quite petite."
Gu Hui asked again, "Has she lost weight?"
Peng Ze thought for a moment: "I can't tell that. But she seems to be eating more than before. She can hold up a whole leg of lamb and gnaw on it like a grown man."
Gu Hui couldn't help but laugh.
Over the past few years, Xin Xin has grown into a beautiful young woman. She couldn't imagine that this pretty little sister would lift up a whole leg of lamb and gnaw on it like a grown man.
Seeing Gu Hui smile, Peng Ze also smiled.
