By the standards of "Dream Treasure", neither "Graceful Treasure" nor "Ruo Treasure" can be considered a true "treasure" level female lead.
Of all the female leads, Jiang Wuyou is closest to earning her title "Youbao," just one step away.
However, "Youbao" doesn't sound very good; "Niangzi" sounds better.
Seeing that Ziruo's wife was studying military strategy, He Yunxiao immediately said, "Madam, I have a question to ask you."
Fan Ziruo, her pretty face slightly flushed, asked, "What's wrong?"
He Yunxiao immediately told Fan Ziruo about his shameless plan to "besiege Wei to rescue Zhao" and launch a surprise attack on the capital of Yan.
Fan Ziruo listened in silence.
"Husband, have you thought it through?"
He Yunxiao nodded. "Every man has a responsibility for the rise and fall of the nation, and I am the son of Marquis Wuqing. How can I stand aside when the two countries are at war?"
Fan Ziruo looked at her lover with tender affection and said, "If my husband really intends to go to the battlefield, he must come to Ziruo's place before he leaves."
He Yunxiao immediately agreed to such a small matter, saying, "Okay."
"You promise."
He Yunxiao hugged his wife Ziruo, feeling both amused and exasperated. Seeing her serious expression, he put away his playful smile and said earnestly, "Before I leave, I will definitely come to the Fan residence to say goodbye to Madam."
Fan Ziruo nodded and then said, "Husband, the matter you just asked me is truly beyond my ability to answer, and I cannot answer it."
He Yunxiao comforted her, saying, "It's alright. Everyone has their strengths. It's perfectly normal for Ruobao not to know military strategy."
Fan Ziruo said with dissatisfaction, "It's not that I don't know how at all, it's just that I'm not proficient yet."
He Yunxiao was slightly surprised, "You can?"
Fan Ziru raised the military treatise in his hand, "I only know half of it so far."
Seeing the half-read military treatise in Zi Ruo's wife's hand, He Yunxiao's lips twitched and he said, "You didn't only read half of it, did you?"
"Um."
"When can you answer my question?"
“My husband, please wait for me for an hour. Once I have read it, I will be able to answer.”
He Yunxiao's lips twitched violently. "Madam, this art of war cannot be followed blindly or dogmatically. When you read this book, you still need to learn by analogy and apply it flexibly."
Fan Ziruo said earnestly, "Of course." Then she added, "Husband, Ziruo is going to read now."
He Yunxiao usually dared to joke around with his wife, but when she was studying, he dared not interfere with her studies.
He quickly lifted Ziruo's wife from his lap to a chair, fanning her and making tea, hoping she would quickly learn something.
Fan Ziruo was exceptionally focused when studying, immersing herself completely in her books, like a jade sculpture, seemingly isolated from the world.
His wife was reading a book, and He Yunxiao was waiting beside her.
With nothing else to do, he lay on the table and stared at Fan Ziruo.
Look at her long eyelashes, her eyes that sparkle like stars, her narrow and high nose, and the delicate, petal-like cupid's bow set in her lips...
Ziruo's wife's attire has always leaned towards elegance. It's mostly white with some refined light colors, such as cyan, blue, indigo, green... She never wears bright red, delicate pink, or luxurious purple.
He Yunxiao suddenly had an idea: what would happen if Ziruo wore a black lace-trimmed bodice under this elegant outer garment?
To be honest, Ziruo's wife's figure is already hard to resist, so if you add anything else, she simply can't keep up.
If she really dressed like that, she'd probably end up like Mengbao, unable to get out of bed for most of the day.
He Yunxiao found it amusing whenever he thought of Mengbao's resentful gaze. Even someone as strong as Mengbao only dared to be stubborn at the beginning; later, as dawn approached, Mengbao became exhausted and drowsy, and then she became incredibly obedient.
An hour later, Fan Ziruo turned to the last page of the military treatise. She took a deep breath of fresh air and exhaled a breath of stale air. The book was now hers.
"Has Madam finished reading?" He Yunxiao asked softly.
"Um."
"How about it?"
Fan Ziru frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "Your plan is feasible."
"Really?" He Yunxiao was pleasantly surprised.
"Hmm. But we need to be careful. Can your sneak attack really threaten Jingtian City?"
He Yunxiao was taken aback.
Holy crap! Ziruo's wife is right! A man like the Yan Emperor is unlikely to order the Yan army to retreat just because my troops are at the city gates. If I can't threaten Jingtian City with the troops at Jubei Pass, I won't be able to achieve the "besieging Wei to rescue Zhao" effect at all. Instead, Jubei Pass will be left vulnerable and become an easy place for the Yan army to break through.
"Given Qi Yan's current situation, what do you think we should do, Madam?"
He Yunxiao simply gave up thinking and lay down, waiting for his wife Ziruo to figure out the plan thoroughly, chew it up, and feed it directly to him.
Fan Ziruo frowned and said, "I know nothing about the Qi army's supplies, morale, or the people's morale, and I know even less about the Yan state. With such a lack of intelligence, I really cannot offer any advice on my own. However, if there is a way to find out the remaining military strength in the Yan state, then the method of the Northern Army marching north to pacify the heavens is indeed worth a try."
He Yunxiao nodded.
Finding out the remaining military strength of the Yan state would be extremely difficult for others, but it was very easy for him.
He had a system-given item called "Yan State Border Defense Map". Once he obtained this item, he could see the complete troop deployment within Yan State. The only pity was that this item was in Yan, not Qi, and the system only gave a general location. He Yunxiao had no way of describing where this item was hidden.
He Yunxiao pondered inwardly, "Could it be that only if I personally go to the Yan Kingdom can this be done?"
...
The following day, the news of Prime Minister Han's death shocked Yin Jing. The "wise men" all knew Qi was doomed, and taking advantage of the fact that the Yan army hadn't fully arrived, they fled with their families. Before Yin Jing could fully descend into panic, news of the Princess's "resurrection" spread in an even more explosive manner. The morale of the army and the people, which had just wavered, was thus further solidified.
