But at this time, it would not be that useful to intercept and kill the team of doctors from the Yun Kingdom!

Feng Chu obviously also figured out the key, his face became extremely ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"No, we absolutely cannot obtain supplies from the Yun Kingdom!"

When King Qi heard this, he looked at Feng Chu and shook his head, saying:

"Although the price of materials sold by Yun State is 50% higher, compared with the imperial court raising materials and sending them to the southwest, there is less loss and delay along the way, so it is not a loss!"

"Your Highness, the price given by Emperor Yun was obviously calculated by someone who wanted to make His Highness think this way and then step into his plan. As a result, the people in the southwest do not know the truth, and I am afraid that..." Feng

He said anxiously.

But before he could finish speaking, King Qi sighed and interrupted:

"This is a conspiracy, there's no way around it!"

King Qi paused and then said:

"The reason why the DPRK and the Central Government are so slow to raise supplies now is not only because there are people holding back, but also because of the emptiness in the imperial treasury. Because of the peace talks indemnity delivered to the Yun State before, the balance in the imperial treasury has been emptied.

Now the imperial court has searched it all over, but I’m afraid it can’t even compare to one-tenth of the gold and silver in Jiangyang County’s treasury.”

"Now that the situation in the southwest is in chaos, there is obviously no need to think about sending the gold and silver back to Jinling City! Instead of doing this, it is better to send it directly to Yun State for purchase."

Feng Chu frowned, but still insisted:

"Your Highness, even if this is the case, you must not do it. This is giving the six southwest counties to the Yun Kingdom! I have said before that there is no right or wrong between countries. What's more, I, Daxia, and Yun Kingdom have

The country has taken over the grudge, and although a peace treaty has been made, sooner or later there will be war again. When the time comes, the Yun Kingdom will have more strength, but Daxia will have less chance of winning. A life-and-death situation cannot be tolerated like this!"

Although Feng Chu's words were a bit harsh, they were obviously extremely correct.

Once the war breaks out again, the six counties in the southwest will inevitably change hands. By then, the national power of the Yun Kingdom will double, and the Xia Kingdom will weaken by one-fifth. The general trend of the world, and the contrast between the strengths and weaknesses of the two countries, will become overturned.

When King Qi heard this, he closed his eyes and leaned back slightly.

What was ringing in his ears at this time was the sound of people wailing and crying that had been heard from time to time in his dreams during this period.

The disease was prevalent, and every family was suffering from death, and every room was crying and crying. Some people died with their doors closed, or their families were wiped out and mourned. The tragic scene of the plague suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

The next moment, King Qi suddenly opened his eyes, his previous hesitation was gone, his face was firm, and he said in a deep voice:

"Even so, it is better than dragging tens of millions of people from these six counties to die together!"

The reason why we agreed to attack the team of doctors from the Yun Kingdom was because these doctors were short of supplies and could not save many people except helping Xiao Cheng to win over the people.

But now that the Yun State has agreed to sell supplies, the situation is completely different. With the supplies from the Yun State, the people in the southwest are really saved!

Even if, for Xia Guo, it is drinking poison to quench thirst...

Feng Chu was born as an embroiderer. What despicable and cruel methods have he not used? In his opinion, there is always only whether to do it, not whether it should be done.

He should have scorned King Qi's words.

But at this time, seeing King Qi speaking loudly, looking solemn, and majestic, Feng Chu couldn't even say anything to persuade him.

Feng Chu was silent for a moment, then finally leaned over and bowed, thinking complicatedly in his heart:

Sure enough, everything before was all an illusion, and he was still a fool!

At this time, just outside the Jiangyang County camp, several people wearing moon-white Taoist robes, who looked like Taoists at first glance, were watching the commander from a distance.

The leader had a cold aura around him, and between his brows, a white light shone brightly. The white light swept across, giving people the illusion that his whole body was seen through.

The Taoist spiritual power of observing qi is called the Tianmu, or the Heavenly Eye. It is not very different from the Taoist successors in the Jixia Academy of Yun State, who use their Taoist minds to perceive the world, but they are also Taoists who can see through people's destiny.

Secret technique.

At this time, in the sight of the Taoist leader, above the military camp filled with bloody murderous aura, a dragon's phantom had a ferocious head and horns, and four claws had gradually grown out of its belly.

As King Qi's thoughts in the commander's tent became more and more determined, when the dragon vision circled and soared, the majestic kingly aura suddenly appeared on the bloody dragon that was originally full of murderous aura. Golden light then appeared, and

The body of the strange dragon is set off in a dazzling red gold color. At a glance, it becomes more and more like a real dragon.

The white light between the eyebrows of the leading Taoist gradually dissipated and he said loudly:

"Sure enough, there is a real dragon statue!"

The Taoists on the side heard this and couldn't help but echoed:

"It seems that the statement circulating in Jinling City that Emperor Xia prefers King Yiqi to inherit the throne is not groundless!"

"I didn't expect that the position that all the princes were vying for would finally fall to His Highness Prince Qi!"

The leading Taoist stroked his sleeves and said in a deep voice:

"Let's go. The inheritance of my Taoism in Xia Kingdom will be bet on King Qi from now on!"

"yes!"

All the Taoists set off together and walked towards the military camp.

But before they reached the gate of the military camp, they immediately ran into a group of scholars wearing Confucian robes.

The two groups of people looked at each other, their eyes condensed, and they walked toward the military camp together in silence...

Yun State, Zhongqing City.

Liu Bowen looked at the majestic and prosperous capital of Yun Kingdom in front of him, curled his lips and said:

"Dayun!"

Standing next to Liu Bowen was Zhang Yue, a member of the Zongheng family.

Zhang Yue looked at Zhongqing City with a serious face and narrowed his eyes.

Is this choice really right?

Liu Bowen turned to look at Zhang Yue and said with a smile:

"Now that we're here, don't act like this. If you still have any hesitation, go to Jixia Academy and wait and see."

Hearing this, Zhang Yue laughed, nodded and said:

"That's the truth! It's just that I have a place to go. What about you? How can you enter the court and become an official with no connections? Or do you want to wait a few more months to take the imperial examination? If that doesn't work, I can take you to Jixia

Academy! If you have no name or status, you might as well join me..."

Liu Bowen did not wait for him to finish, waved his hand casually, and interrupted:

"If this is the case, how can I show my ability?"

Seeing this, Zhang Yue couldn't help but shake his head and said:

"You want to pretend to be a ghost again in order to gain fame and attract attention?"

"It's so ugly to pretend to be gods and ghosts! I, Liu Ji, have reviewed what hundreds of schools of thought have learned. I just want to show off what I have learned so that my reputation can be spread to His Majesty's ears. How can I say that I am pretending to be gods and ghosts... Even if I use some means, it's still me.

What a talent!" Liu Bowen said with some dissatisfaction.

Hearing this, Zhang Yue couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

At this moment, in front of the city gate, a man suddenly rushed up and shouted:

"Liu Ji? You are Liu Ji, Liu Bowen!"

The person who came was thin and his face was covered with dust, as if he had just returned from a long journey. But at this time, there was an unusually excited look on his face.

Zhang Yue frowned and subconsciously moved forward to stop this person.

Seeing that he was stopped, the man paused and asked again:

"Are you Liu Ji Liu Bowen?"

Liu Bowen was also a little confused. Looking at the person coming, he nodded subconsciously and said:

"yes……"

When the man heard this, he was so excited that his eyes turned red, and he couldn't help but said:

"Finally, finally found it..."

Halfway through the sentence, the man suddenly remembered something, then took out the token from his arms, stuffed it into Liu Bowen's hand, and said excitedly:

"I leave this to you. Go to Dongchang and recommend you to become an official in the court!"

Liu Bowen looked at the token that was stuffed into his hand and blinked slightly.

Before he could react, Zhang Yue's eyes widened with shock and admiration on his face, and he said loudly:

"Is this also what you expected?"

Feeling the admiration in Zhang Yue's eyes, Liu Bowen hesitated for a moment, and finally his face became hot. He coughed lightly to cover up the confusion on his face, and pretended to be calm and said:

"Yes, yes... right."

－－－－－－Digression－－－－－

The extra thousand words will make up for it.

I still have this sincerity, don’t blame me...
