Huangfu Chuxiong wanted to personally lead the expedition, but was stopped by the Imperial Advisor.
The prophecy foretells that the Great Yue Kingdom will soon be submerged by the sea. The Great Yue Kingdom's scheme to seize the throne of the Southern Chen Kingdom through intrigue and trickery has failed, and they are no match for the enemy.
What should we do?
For hundreds of years, the Huangfu family, the royal family of the Great Yue Kingdom, has controlled the people of the Great Yue Kingdom through special means, and this is now gradually being exposed.
The resentment of the people in the Great Yue Kingdom is accumulating, and when it reaches a certain point, the Huangfu family may be wiped out.
Although the Huangfu family possesses witchcraft, it seems that the Southern Chen Kingdom has more sophisticated magic.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been invincible and captured the key town of Yadan with minimal effort.
They were unstoppable and were about to reach the capital of the Great Yue Kingdom.
For hundreds of years, the Huangfu family has been immersed in the study of witchcraft.
In terms of national economy and people's livelihood, the Huangfu family also used control methods to make the people work hard in farming and making a living.
They lack their own thoughts.
Although it can ensure the normal operation of the country, it can never catch up with the Southern Chen Kingdom and the Great Liang Kingdom.
In addition, the Great Yue Kingdom was located in a poor geographical location, with low-lying terrain, bordering the sea and backed by mountains.
As Li Ting approached the capital of the Great Yue Kingdom, Lu Zhengyang, the commander of the Jiangnan Navy, also led his navy to Xiadan Port, the largest port in the Great Yue Kingdom.
Although the Great Yue Kingdom is located by the sea, the Huangfu family has not known how to utilize the sea's resources for hundreds of years.
A navy was never established.
Therefore, when Lu Zhengyang's 200,000-strong navy arrived at Xiadan Port, the people of Dayue Kingdom even came out in groups to watch the spectacle.
They had never seen such a luxurious ship before, nor had they ever seen a navy.
When the captain of Xiadan Port arrived at the port, Lu Zhengyang had already been invited off the ship by the people of Dayue Kingdom and was strolling around Xiadan City.
When Lu Zhengyang arrived at Xiadan Port, he was surprised to see such a scene.
There's absolutely no need to attack Xia Dan Port.
You can get it right away.
He brought 200,000 naval troops with him, which was quite a grand gesture.
If I had known that the Great Yue Kingdom was in this state, I should have attacked long ago.
The waters around Xiadan Port have good water quality and are rich in fish and shrimp.
The people of Dayue Kingdom were already aware that Nanchen Kingdom was about to attack the capital of Dayue Kingdom.
But they weren't afraid at all.
Lu Zhengyang wondered if this was a trap.
He wasn't afraid of traps; General Li had said he would come to his rescue.
Lu Zhengyang ordered his 200,000-strong navy to anchor at Xiadan Port, but they were not allowed to disembark and move around freely.
Let him go to the mainland and take a look before making a decision.
As Li Ting's army approached the capital, the Huangfu family lost its composure.
There are simply not enough people available to control the people now.
Therefore, at this moment, the people of Xiadan Port did not harbor any inexplicable hatred towards the Nanchen Kingdom.
On the contrary, they knew that the current national strength of Nanchen Kingdom was far greater than theirs.
The people live in peace and contentment, enjoying a prosperous life.
It's the life they've always dreamed of.
Although the port of Hadan is rich in marine resources, Hadan fishermen do not have large boats and cannot access more of these resources.
They couldn't make use of their unique advantages, and the people's lives were miserable.
Upon hearing that the Southern Chen Kingdom could build its own ocean-going ships, the fishermen of Xia Dan were filled with envy.
If they had such large ships, would they still have trouble making a living?
Therefore, they genuinely invited Lu Zhengyang to disembark and tour the scenery of Xiadan Port, hoping that the navy of Nanchen Kingdom would not engage in large-scale warfare at Xiadan Port.
Lu Zhengyang also stated the purpose of his trip: to make the Huangfu family pay the price they deserved.
Li Ting led his army to approach Zhu Dan City, the capital of the Great Yue Kingdom.
Huangfu Chuxiong is still making a last-ditch effort.
The city gates were not opened, but the people standing in rows on the city walls were the citizens of the Great Yue Kingdom.
A leader on the city wall shouted that if Li Ting took another step forward, he would kill this group of civilians.
Some soldiers from the Great Yue Kingdom in Li Ting's army, seeing this scene, were glad that they had already surrendered.
Zakmu was even more shocked to discover that the emperor he had served for so many years was so cruel.
Li Ting set up camp outside Zhu Dan City.
After setting up camp, they discussed with Fan Zuan how to break through the city gate.
It's actually quite simple, but Li Ting felt that they couldn't act yet because the people were in their hands.
Saving lives is a huge undertaking.
We need to capture Huangfu Chuxiong to cut off the threat at its source, and then deal with his lackeys.
Li Xingran returned to the capital of Nanchen Kingdom on her own, while Xu Ningyou stayed behind as her deputy general.
After returning to the capital, Li Xingran thought about creating a celestial network so she could contact Li Ting and the others directly.
Since Li Ting had gone to war, Xiao Sheng would come to the Li family every few days, ostensibly to take care of Li Xingran.
A boy who is a little over twelve years old and a girl who is almost six years old spend their days either cultivating immortality or bickering.
However, in most cases, Li Xingran doesn't pay much attention to Xiao Sheng and focuses on cultivating immortality.
Li Ruizhang and Zhang Qingshu were deeply in love, their relationship as harmonious as honey and in perfect harmony.
Xiao Sheng made an exception and allowed Zhang Qingshu to enter the Ministry of Works as Li Ruizhang's deputy.
This made Zhang Qingshu extremely happy.
She had always hoped to use her talents like a man.
Instead of being a devoted wife and mother, growing old and dying in the backyard.
Xiao Sheng even issued an imperial edict appointing Zhang Qingshu, which was known throughout the land.
Thanks to Xiao Sheng's enlightened policies over the past three years, it has become commonplace in Nan Chen Kingdom for women to work outside the home.
Furthermore, during his time at the Ministry of Works, many young trainees held Zhang Qingshu in high esteem.
After all, under Li Ruizhang's guidance, Zhang Qingshu's handicraft skills had almost caught up with Li Ruizhang's.
