Chapter 58 Strategic Adjustment
Qin Wang Zhao Defang's decision made Sima Qingyun excited and tears welled up in his eyes!
The prince only wanted to avenge Taizu. Even if he couldn't escape unscathed, he was unwilling to seize the throne, so as not to cause internal chaos and foreign invasion, and the lives of the people in the world would be ruined.
He tried to persuade the prince for two or three years, but he never shook the prince's will. I don't know why the prince suddenly changed his mind?
Since the strategic goals have been adjusted, the tactics must also be replanned.
After the three of them discussed in the study for an hour, Qin Wang Zhao Defang, who was always decisive and resolute, glanced at the two of them with lightning eyes!
: "Qingyun! This king will give you another three million taels of silver, you quickly return to Western Shu to make new arrangements!
In Shu, you must build an invincible army for this king!
In half a year at most, this king will not only take Shu into his pocket, but also have enough ability to resist the heavy armored cavalry of the Dangxiang people and the Khitan people!"
Sima Qingyun stood up and received the order with excitement!
: "I will definitely live up to your command!"
The King of Qin's firm eyes flashed with light!
: "Let Yun Yi assign you six shadow guards to protect your safety, and bring three hundred Moyun cavalry as sparring partners, and be responsible for training the recruited athletes!"
Sima Qingyun and Yun Yi received the order in unison!
Qin Wang Zhao Defang stood in front of the window, gazing at the tall and straight bamboo in the courtyard, and a soft warmth slowly emerged on his resolute and courageous face...
He originally just wanted to confirm that Zhao Guangyi was the murderer of his father, and then kill him to avenge his father!
The candidate for the throne in his mind was the eldest prince Zhao Yuanzuo, who was smart, kind-hearted, and loyal.
In order to prevent the emperor from suddenly dying, several princes would kill each other for the throne, and the country's decline would lead to foreign invasions, so he planned and looked for opportunities to take action again.
In the years of fighting with the Dang Xiang people and the Khitans, he deeply realized the huge threat of the enemy's heavily armored cavalry.
In order for the Song Dynasty to be invincible in the future war, he risked being charged with treason and secretly organized a heavy armored cavalry that could defeat the enemy and a base for developing weapons in Shu.
Now, for Li'er, he has changed his mind!
He wants to fight for the supreme power to protect his beloved. Even if it means turmoil in the court and bloodshed in the world!
He wants to re-plan everything, and he has to cherish his life. He wants to plan carefully and have a sure win, and for his Li'er, he will stir up the world and fight hard! ……

Luo Li originally wanted to go to the manor in the west of the city today, but because of the dismantling of a large bed made of thousands of workers and the installation of another large mahogany carved bed, she was delayed for half a day, so she had to go tomorrow.
There was nothing to do for half a day, so Luo Li took a nap and went to the backyard for a walk.
Yingchun was rubbing her hands all the way, and Banxia was sharpening her knife in her heart! Wanqiu and Yingxue were excited to try their hands.
The princess wanted to take them to find a few fat sheep to practice, and then she would slaughter them and make some pocket money for them! …
The four cute little beauties locked in the deep courtyard have finally found fun these days.
The mahjong tiles given by the princess were so interesting and fun that they became obsessed with them after learning.
The four beauties had a lot of money. In addition to the 120 taels of silver issued by the Prince Qin's Mansion every month, each of them received a large sum of money in banknotes when they accepted a mission.
Although they could not find out the secrets of the front yard in the palace, the maids could also hear some news when they walked around the palace. Every time the intelligence was sent to the palace, there would be a cash reward.
Therefore, the four beauties were not short of money. They only lacked a man, His Royal Highness the Prince Qin. But since His Royal Highness the Prince Qin could not be seen, they had to find some games to kill time.
These days, Concubine Wang had a very good luck and won more than a thousand taels of silver. After taking a nap, she found the three sisters Liu, Wu, and Zheng to join the card game.
When the maid announced that the princess had arrived, the four beauties quickly lifted their buttocks and went out to greet her.
Luo Li and the four maids admired the scenery in the backyard while waiting for the four charming little fat sheep to greet them.
The four beauties bowed together!
"Your servant greets the princess!"
The plump, round-faced and big-eyed Lady Wang asked with a charming smile, "Why did the princess have time to come to the backyard today? The four of us sisters have been looking forward to hearing from the princess!"
Luo Li looked at the four lambs waiting to be slaughtered with a smile on her face, and said amiably, "This princess has already talked to the prince, and the prince said that he would take time to visit you in a few days.
Today I am free, and I have sent a few bars of soap and toothpaste, just in case you are short of them."
The four of them thanked her repeatedly with endless gratitude. For a while, the chirping of birds made the quiet courtyard lively and noisy.
Luo Li was welcomed into the house. After sitting down, she asked Yingchun to open the small wooden box she brought. She also gave each of the four beauties two bars of soap and two small calfskin bags of toothpaste.
The four beauties took them with joy and thanked them with a smile.
Luo Li glanced at the mahjong tiles on the table in the main hall and asked with concern, "Four beauties, is this mahjong tile that the princess gave you interesting and fun?"
"It's fun! Princess, these days, we sisters have relied on this set of mahjong tiles to find some fun." The slim and exquisite, oval-faced beauty Zheng said eagerly.
"It's good to be interesting! I'm afraid that one deck is not enough for you, so I sent you another deck. I'm free today, so I'll play a few rounds with you. Let's set up another table and play two games."
Seeing that the silly princess was so interested, the four beauties all agreed with joy. After the table
was set up, Luo Li asked Yingchun and Wanqiu to play one round with the two beauties, Wang and Zheng, and she played another round with Yingxue and Liu and Wu.
They agreed to a bet of three taels of silver and started playing with great interest.
After playing half a round, Luo Li, who won two games in a row, threw down the cards in her hand with boredom.
She said to Banxia who was standing behind her, "The chips are too small. It's boring for me to play. You can do it for me! I'll go have some tea and some snacks." Banxia,
who had been itching for a long time, quickly smiled and agreed, then sat down and took out the "sword" she had practiced for a few days.
The maids in the backyard served the princess food and drink, and the four maids in Ning Xinyuan played happily with the beauties.
Later, Luo Li even leaned on the imperial concubine couch and dozed for a while.
Only to hear the charming Concubine Zheng yelled in annoyance!
"My luck is really bad today. I lost more than 800 taels of silver in four rounds of cards! I don't want to play anymore!"
In another card game, the elegant Concubine Wang also sighed!
"My luck is also very bad today. I lost all the 1,000 taels of silver I won in the past few days. Forget it! Let's end today's game!"
The other two beauties also complained about their bad luck, and ended the game and met again another day.
Luo Li opened her sleepy eyes and stretched her waist.
: "You guys need to practice your card skills more! These four maids in the palace are new learners, and their card skills are better than yours."
The four beauties lost a lot of money and were in a low mood. They just kept saying that they would polish their card skills.
Luo Li got up and walked out, "Yingchun Banxia, Wanqiu Yingxue, your princess is hungry and is going back!"
The four maids smiled and responded, and followed the princess out. The four beauties bowed and sent them off.
After entering Ning Xinyuan, the four maids couldn't help laughing anymore, and they were shaking with laughter and couldn't straighten their backs!
: "I'm laughing to death! These little fat sheep that the princess found for us are so easy to slaughter!" Banxia laughed so hard that she covered her stomach and tears came out.
Wanqiu and Yingxue also laughed so hard that they hugged each other, losing their image.
Yingchun, who had seen the world with the princess, just said with a smile, "Don't just laugh, hurry up and go into the house to divide the money!"
After entering the house, the four maids took out the silver and banknotes in their pockets and placed them on the table.
First, they divided the 400 taels of capital they brought with them, and counted them. There were 3,060 taels left. Each person got 810 taels.
The four maids screamed with joy!
Yingchun's eyes were full of excitement, "Princess! If you can find a few more fat sheep for us, I will have enough money to buy a two-story courtyard for my parents!"
Luo Li squinted her eyes and enjoyed Ruhua's massage comfortably. Hearing this, she scolded him with a bit of regret!
"Look at you, you are so useless! The people who follow me must buy a house with at least three stories for their families!"
The princess' words made the four maids excited for a long time.
Hearing the rumbling thunder outside, Luo Li felt a little anxious!
"Ruhua, I couldn't go to the farm in the west of the city today. It won't rain heavily today, will it?"
Ruhua massaged the lady's shoulders and comforted her, "Don't worry, Miss. It hasn't rained heavily in the capital for half a month. Even if it rains tonight, you can still go out tomorrow. It won't delay anything."
The King of Qin went to the Moyun Cavalry Camp outside the city and didn't come back. Luo Li had a quiet dinner today.
After a long time of thunder, the heavy rain that had been brewing for a long time finally poured down from the sky!
Amid the thunder and lightning, the rain poured down like a bucket, hitting the eaves and roofs with a popping sound like frying beans, and the stuffiness in the house dissipated instantly!
Luo Li walked to the window, looked at the raindrops reflected by lightning in the dark night sky outside the closed window, and sighed!
"Ruhua, if this heavy rain continues for two or three days, we can't go to the farm outside the city. When "An Xiang Ji Ren" opens, there will be no shampoo and soap to sell!"
Ruhua was also worried! Such heavy rain is rare, and I don't know if it will be sunny tomorrow.
"Miss, there are still four or five days before the opening! This heavy rain will not last forever, and it should not delay your plan to open the business and become a hit!"
Luo Li was also worried that the water of the Yellow River was just ten miles north of Bianjing City, and a flood disaster would occur every few years. Don't let my opening be affected by it!
