Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 344 Magical Technique
In front of the soul, Kou Wanwan knelt for a long time.

After the paper money in the brazier burned out, she slowly stood up.

After getting up, he stood on the same spot again, staring at the three spiritual cards with his two peach blossom and almond eyes, in a daze.

After a while, Kou Wanwan moved.

Walking towards the desk, he reached out and picked up the first spiritual tablet. His slender jade-like fingertips slid and touched the writing on the tablet.

Then he took out a handkerchief as white as snow from his sleeve and gently wiped the spiritual tablet.

"Father..."

Crystal hot tears fell from the corners of his eyes and flowed along his cheeks.

After a long time, Kou Wanwan put the spirit tablet back and straightened it.

Then he picked up another piece.

When she saw the writing on the spirit tablet, Kou Wanwan burst into tears again.

"Mother..."

By the time she picked up the third spiritual tablet, Kou Wanwan's mood had improved a lot.

"Brother Emperor, your long-standing wish is to govern the country with benevolence. Make the people of the world prosperous and healthy, so that foreign enemies dare not invade...Brother Emperor, don't worry, your wish will be fulfilled for you!"

After wiping the three spirit tablets, Kou Wanwan put one of them back in place, took a step back, and refilled three sticks of incense for each of the three incense burners.

"Father, queen, and brother. The king of Shaozhou has rebelled and has been defeated like a mountain. This is a great opportunity to avenge you!"

"Father, mother, queen, and brother, don't worry, my daughter will definitely take off the traitor's head to comfort the spirits of the father, mother, and brother in heaven!"

"When my daughter kills the traitor with her own hands, take his head and place it in front of his soul for sacrifice. At that time, father, mother, and brother, you can rest in peace under the Nine Springs!"

With that said, Kou Wanwan squatted down and added paper money to the brazier.

The firelight of the paper money reflected on her thrilling face, flickering on and off, as if it were plated with gold.

"Young Palace Master, the carriage, horses, etc. have been prepared, and everything has been arranged. You are ready to go at any time." A person came out from behind the heavy curtains, dressed as a maid, and her voice was very low.

"I know." Kou Wanwan melted all the paper money into the brazier, stood up slowly, looked at the three spiritual tablets attentively, and her tone was suddenly cold and chilling: "Change clothes!"

……

……

Jiangzhou.

The front hall of Dong Mansion.

The issue of "the king of Shaozhou came with more than [-] remaining soldiers to kill" is still under discussion.

After a while of silence.

Zhu Xiuyuan glanced around, slowly stood up, and walked to the middle of the front hall.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, Father-in-law, all gentlemen." Zhu Xiuyuan held his hands together and said, "To confront the King of Shaozhou and the more than [-] remaining soldiers he brought with him, I have thought of a way."

Dong Cheng said happily: "What can I do about a good son-in-law?"

Liu Wencai: "Brother Zhu's method must be a wonderful one!"

Li Linzhou also intervened: "Master Sima, we are all at a loss. Since Master Sima has a wonderful method, we might as well say it directly."

The Crown Prince, sitting high up, saw Dong Cheng and the others speaking one after another, and felt in his heart that he should also speak.So the prince straightened his sitting posture, took out the etiquette form that he had studied and practiced diligently in the past, and said with a smile: "Oh, since Lord Sima has a wonderful method, why not tell it so that I and everyone can feel at ease."

Yan Dashan, the two elders Liu and Guan, and the other yamen officials kept silent and only looked at Zhu Xiuyuan with their eyes.

All they could think of was to "hold the city and wait for King Shaozhou to attack".

Therefore, they were extremely curious about Zhu Xiuyuan's method.

This is the reality. Is there a better way?
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, your father-in-law, and all of you. There is no wonderful way to talk about..." Zhu Xiuyuan was modest.

"In a nutshell, this method is 'gather and annihilate'!" Zhu Xiuyuan didn't talk too much and simply pointed out the essence of this method.

"If we rely on Jiangzhou City to hold on and wait for King Shaozhou to attack, we will be slightly passive, and our manpower and material resources will not be able to be consumed."

"So, we can change it and turn passivity into initiative!" Zhu Xiuyuan continued.

"Xian son-in-law, I can guess some of your methods, but... how to turn passivity into initiative?" Dong Cheng frowned and fell into deep thought.

"My benefactor, could it be that he used that fierce fire oil to gather Shaozhou King and his ten thousand remaining soldiers in one place and annihilate them in one fell swoop?" Yan Dashan guessed, glaring.

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded approvingly and said with a smile: "Da Shan is right, but not entirely right!"

"There is also divine thunder!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Liu Wencai added together. After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Divine Thunder is black gunpowder. The name Divine Thunder was specially chosen by Zhu Xiuyuan.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Brother Liu are right. Fierce Fire Oil alone is not enough. Divine Thunder is also needed. With Fierce Fire Oil and Divine Thunder, the King of Shaozhou and his tens of thousands of remnants will not be able to escape!"

"But... Lord Sima, how can we gather the King of Shaozhou and his tens of thousands of remaining soldiers together? How can we annihilate them in one fell swoop?" Li Linzhou pointed out the two most critical questions.

"Yes, virtuous son-in-law..." Dong Cheng frowned even more tightly. Although he had been an official for many years, he couldn't think of a way at this time.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Liu Wencai, Yan Dashan and the others also frowned in thought.

The method of gathering together and annihilating them is good, but how to implement it?
Everyone thought about it for a long time, but they couldn't think of a good solution for the time being.

"My virtuous son-in-law, since you have proposed a way to gather them together and annihilate them, my virtuous son-in-law must have carefully planned out the specific details, right?"

Dong Cheng suddenly saw that Zhu Xiuyuan's face was calm, without any trace of frowning and contemplation, and he suddenly understood. They were frowning and thinking hard, and it seemed that they were looking for trouble.

"What my father-in-law said is right. There is indeed a specific implementation method here in Xiaguan..."

Zhu Xiuyuan immediately explained the method.

After hearing this, everyone clapped their hands and applauded.

Wonderful, it is indeed a wonderful method!

Because the King of Shaozhou will arrive tomorrow morning at the latest, time is tight. Now that we have a wonderful method, we should prepare immediately.

Dong Cheng bowed his head slightly and meditated for a while, and within a few breaths, he had sorted out the sequence of the entire magic method.

Then allocate manpower, assign tasks, and arrange various tasks in an orderly manner.

While busy, it was getting dark and lights began to be turned on in the city.

As we continued to be busy, most of the night passed.

It wasn't until the first quarter of Yinshi, that is, around three o'clock in the morning, that the entire preparation work was completed.
