After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

The palace of the deserted country,

The royal study room without a roof.

The pot of strong tea was already weak, and the charcoal fires in the four braziers in the imperial study room had also been extinguished.

It's daybreak.

The morning sun shines from the roof.

The lamp is out because the oil has burned to ashes.

Uncle Zhong looked at the silent Yu Wenfeng and drank the last sip of tea in the cup.

"It's delaying the emperor's rest."

"This man talks a lot as he gets older. In fact... all he talks about over and over again are the old things."

"The emperor can still listen patiently to the old minister. The old minister is very touched."

"But the veteran is really going to retire. It's not that he wants to avoid disaster, it's just that he is a little unable to do what he wants."

"I have told the emperor everything I know about the situation in the world."

"Wu Guo... Let's see if Wu Hui can deal with those vassal kings without bloodshed in the past two years."

"If it can, Wu will usher in a new era."

"If not, Wu will surely follow in the footsteps of Yue."

"The Yue Kingdom...the veteran still advises the emperor to raise troops to attack Yue,"

Yu Wenji on the side couldn't help but interjected, but his tone of voice had softened a lot: "Xiang Zhong, since the Loulan people are about to come, if we in the desert country continue to attack Yue at this time..."

"There is a Shence Army in the Yue Kingdom. Therefore, the battle against the Yue Kingdom was originally planned to be carried out in three steps."

"The first step is for 20,000 cavalry to go down the Lijiang River and land at Jiangmen, the first city on the Lijiang River in the Yue Kingdom."

"After taking Jiangmen, we will use Jiangmen City as the foundation to gradually advance forward. In the future, we will need to send hundreds of thousands of troops to the Yue Kingdom!"

"Once the battle against Vietnam is carried out, it will be difficult to turn back!"

"If Loulan's army comes at this time... Even if the Huang Kingdom starts recruiting troops from now on, how can these recruits stop Loulan's army's offensive?"

Yu Wenfeng also looked at Uncle Zhong.

His mood was a little complicated.

On the one hand, he didn't want Zhongbo to stay in the court.

He has grown into the emperor of the deserted country.

Like the eagle on the grassland, he has enough strength to spread his wings and soar.

But on the other hand... after listening to Uncle Zhong's words all night, he realized that he still knew too little about the world.

Because I have never lived in those countries in the Central Plains, although I am studying the culture of the Central Plains, I cannot accurately analyze and judge the situation of the Central Plains countries.

Now he is in a dilemma -

On the one hand, is it going to be war or surrender to the Loulan Kingdom that is coming soon?
On the one hand, is the alliance still fighting against Ningguo?
Zhong Bo did not give any suggestions, but at this moment he still advocated declaring war on Yue. Yu Wenfeng was also curious about the profound meaning of Zhong Bo's proposal.

Uncle Zhong smiled slightly, "Since the Loulan Kingdom has been established for hundreds of years, if it is really powerful, it doesn't have to gamble with Li Chenan!"

Yu Wenfeng was startled and asked: "So...then Loulan Kingdom is just a bluff?"

"I don't know the details, so I want to go and see for myself."

"But...if Wang Zhengjinzhong returns to Ningguo and tells Li Chenan about this, I estimate that Li Chenan will choose Shushan to decide the country by sword in two years' time."

"...Why?"

"Because Li Chenan doesn't know the details of Loulan Kingdom, and what he needs most is time."

"But what if we lose?"

Uncle Zhong stood up with his hands on his knees, "Perhaps in two years' time, winning or losing in the Shushan sword debate will no longer matter."

"What does Father Zhong mean...?"

"Although I don't know what Loulan Kingdom's intentions are, I believe that in the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are worth mentioning!"

"How strong will Ningxia be in two years?"

"The emperor doesn't know, and neither do the veterans, but Li Chenan himself will know."

Yu Wenfeng pondered for three breaths and said:
"Even if Ning Guo is really strong in two years, if we lose the sword debate in Shushan, we will lose!"

"He will give everything in Ningguo to Loulan with both hands. This will only make Loulanguo stronger!"

Uncle Zhong stroked his long beard and said with a smile:

"So what if we lose?"

"Li Chenan, when has he ever suffered a loss?"

"Actually... before I leave, I want to say something heartfelt to the Emperor."

"Li Chenan's face is probably thicker than the city wall!" "If Shushan loses in the sword debate, he will never hand over the country of Ningguo!"

"Ning Country has developed in two years. Even if Loulan Kingdom comes with an army... I don't think Loulan Kingdom will get much benefit."

"The Loulan Kingdom has a very powerful hidden door, and there are masters who are unmatched in the world. Such masters are indeed very useful on the battlefield, but the Loulan Kingdom does not have fireworks, nor does it have those sharp knives and extremely strong defenses. Armor!"

"I still do not advocate that the emperor negotiate peace with Loulan State and become a pawn in his expedition to the Central Plains."

"The old minister suggested that the emperor still take over the Yue Kingdom, so that the Huang Kingdom will have a retreat in the war two years later."

"After all, I have stayed here for many years, and I am very nostalgic for the people and the city here."

"But the strategy for taking the Yue Kingdom cannot be carried out in three steps as King Rui just said..."

"By the time you finish these three steps, the day lilies will be cold!"

"To defeat Yue, we must fight quickly!"

"Use the largest and most powerful soldiers to conquer Yue within a year, otherwise..."

"My last reminder to the emperor is that if the war in Yue falls into a stalemate and there is no hope of conquering Yue within a year, then withdraw your troops."

"The emperor still has one year to seek an alliance with Ning Guo."

Yuwenfeng and Prince Rui Yuwenji also stood up.

Uncle Zhong bowed to Yu Wenfeng and said, "This is what I have said. Your Majesty... take care of yourself!"

Yu Wenfeng also bowed and said, "Father Zhong...can you stay here?"

"Originally, I wanted to die in a desolate country, but I didn't expect that the current situation has changed dramatically."

"Your Majesty, please don't feel decadent just because Li Chenan is here."

"The emperor should work hard to govern."

"Next... the situation is changing, and it is still unknown who will dominate the vast Central Plains."

"This will be an extremely cruel era of survival of the fittest, but it will also be a magnificent era."

"Your Majesty, prepare the paper and sharpen the ink to write this new chapter!"

"Old minister... take leave!"

"Your Majesty...take care!"

Zhongbo turned and left.

Walked into the morning light.

His originally stooped back gradually straightened up under Yu Wenfeng's gaze.

……

……

In the small pavilion next to the hot spring in the hot spring villa.

The mist of ice and fire seemed to turn into water.

Qin'er also seemed to turn into water.

Her crimson face was filled with happiness as she looked at the man sitting cross-legged.

That's her man.

The main courtyard of the hot spring villa.

Xiao Baozi, who had just gotten up, came to the corridor and stretched his body, but suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of the hot spring pool.

There,

There is a tornado-like fog rising into the sky!

There were faint flashes of lightning and thunder in the fog.

She was suddenly startled and took one step away.

She landed in front of Xiaoxuan's door and opened it...

A Jianbu grabbed a blanket, rolled up the obsessed Wu Qin, hugged him, and flew out.

Just when she landed on the rooftop opposite,
"boom……!"

A loud noise.

A dazzling light burst out from the top of the small xuan and shot straight into the sky!

Wu Qin's eyes widened and he looked blankly, "What...what happened?"

Xiao Baozi pinched Wu Qin's pink face and said, "Moisturize it!"

"Your husband-in-law...he's in trouble again!" (End of Chapter)
