The whole family is obsessed with love? The princess woke them up one after another.

Princess Wu sneered inwardly.

Did you hit Qi Zhiyu's hidden sore spot?

What? She won a city?

If it weren't for Prince Xin's help at the border, could Qi Zhiyu have taken over a city in Qi Kingdom on her own?

Prince Xin was Prince Rui's little follower since childhood, shamelessly trying to please Prince Rui and obeying his every command.

Now that Prince Rui has started vying for the position of crown prince again, how could Prince Xin not put in his best effort?

This must be because Prince Xin attributed all the credit to Qi Zhiyu.

Your Majesty is really something. Knowing the truth of the matter, you still put on this show to support Prince Rui's family!

His Majesty's heart is truly biased to an extreme degree.

Qi Zhiyu turned to Emperor Kangwu: "Grandfather, you heard that."

"The Queen of Wu thinks I should go and expand the territory."

Emperor Kangwu looked at her helplessly: "Chen'an, you are a young lady, don't always be fighting and killing."

"Look at you, so delicate and frail. What will your grandfather do if you really get hurt?"

"Grandfather, the King of Wu and the others all think I should do my part for the Great Rui!" Qi Zhiyu said righteously.

"How could I back down!"

Emperor Kangwu looked at Qi Zhiyu's sparkling, excited eyes and felt like cursing.

Don't think he can't see it; Chen An is already impatient.

If he even nodded, she would immediately rush out and rip the head off the country's monarch.

"Your Majesty!" Emperor Kangwu advised, "Princess Wu was just saying it casually, don't take it seriously."

"How can you listen to what a clueless housewife says?"

Emperor Kangwu's words caused Princess Wu's expression to change drastically.

What does Your Majesty mean by this?

Is she a clueless housewife who knows nothing?

This is an insult to her, making her feel utterly worthless.

Is she really that unacceptable?

"Grandfather, you're mistaken," Qi Zhiyu insisted. "I think the Princess Consort of Wu dared to say that because it was the Prince of Wu's intention!"

"Otherwise, can't the King of Wu even control his own queen?"

"Then he's such a failure!"

The King of Wu, whose name was called, was taken aback. Then, he felt Emperor Kangwu's displeased gaze fall on his face.

The King of Wu felt a chill in his heart. Qi Zhiyu had humiliated him so much, yet his father not only did not blame Qi Zhiyu, but was also dissatisfied with him.

Father's favoritism is outrageous!

"Father, I believe that since Chen'an has such abilities, they should not be wasted," said the Prince of Wu, bowing with his hands clasped.

Emperor Kangwu felt a sudden darkness before his eyes.

It's not terrible for someone to be stupid; what's terrible is being stupid without realizing it.

He was doing everything he could to protect Lao Si, but Lao Si still rushed off to his death.

He doesn't care anymore!

Emperor Kangwu withdrew his gaze and asked Qi Zhiyu, "Chen'an, what do you intend to do?"

"Let's kill all the members of the Northern Yunnan royal family first!" Qi Zhiyu exclaimed excitedly.

"Then, our troops will go and occupy northern Yunnan!"

"One month... no, three months, shouldn't that be enough time to control the entire northern Yunnan region?"

"After that, we'll go to the next country."

Qi Zhiyu became more and more excited as she spoke, and her blood began to boil.

She knows this stuff very well!

"Three months for each country, but if you can stabilize the situation, it doesn't actually need to be three months. You can compress the timeframe to whatever length you need," Qi Zhiyu said, her enthusiasm growing as she spoke.

"Actually, I think the best way is to wipe out the royal families of those countries."

"At that time, the entire world will belong to our Great Rui!"

The people inside the hall: "..."

What did they hear?

To wipe out the royal families of all countries?

And what about Da Rui?

To be attacked and condemned by all the countries?

Can Da Rui withstand it?

At this moment, whether they were neutral, followed Prince Rui, or belonged to Prince Wu's faction, they all had only one thought—Princess, shut up!

Stop talking!

If they continued talking, they feared that before other countries were even destroyed, the Great Rui would be finished!

The Great Rui Kingdom doesn't have enough troops to contend with all the other nations.

"Princess," Grand Secretary Zhang said dryly, "our Great Rui... lacks sufficient troops."

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhiyu showed no sign of discouragement; instead, she happily replied, "It's alright, I have a way."

"If they come to attack Da Rui, I guarantee they won't return!"

"Princess..." Grand Secretary Zhang said sadly, "The killings must not be too severe."

"If that happens, Da Rui will bear eternal infamy!"

"Who would dare write this in the history books? Just kill them, wouldn't that solve the problem?" Qi Zhiyu waved her hand dismissively.

Grand Secretary Zhang turned to look at Emperor Kangwu.

Your Majesty, please advise your granddaughter!

Emperor Kangwu silently turned his head and looked away.

Grand Secretary Zhang felt a sharp pain in his chest from anger. What an irresponsible emperor!

Does Your Majesty also want to do that?

Expanding territories and unifying the world was something every emperor wanted to do.

But we can't actually let the princess do that!

Grand Secretary Zhang took a deep breath and forced a smile: "Princess, back then there were people who didn't know how to write it down, but they would dictate it to their descendants."

"In the future, future generations will eventually find out."

Reputation!

They, Da Rui, also care about their reputation!

They cannot bear the stigma of being cruel and heartless!

"So what if you know?" Qi Zhiyu said, puzzled. "Grand Secretary Zhang, we were all dead back then, why do you still care about these things?"

Even if they cursed you at your grave, did you think you could hear them?

Grand Secretary Zhang choked on his words, unable to win the argument!

He looked at His Majesty... Never mind, His Majesty is useless.

Grand Secretary Zhang turned to look at Prince Rui, only to see a smile on Prince Rui's lips, a smile full of admiration and doting.

Grand Secretary Zhang felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and he knew it!

Why would he have any hope for that treacherous Prince Rui?

"Princess, Da Rui still needs to maintain her reputation." Grand Secretary Zhang's voice trembled.

Qi Zhiyu pouted and said, "Alright then."

"Tell them that it was the King of Wu who suggested doing this, and I was just carrying it out."

King of Wu: "?"

Everyone: "..."

The King of Wu was furious: "Chen'an, how dare you pin such a bad reputation on me?"

"Didn't you suggest that I go and expand the territory?" Qi Zhiyu asked in confusion. "You just finished speaking, and everyone was listening."

"Now you're denying it?"

"You guys are so shameless!"

"I just think you have the ability," the King of Wu defended himself.

"Yes, I have the ability. I can do it right now." Qi Zhiyu nodded affirmatively. "Then, you can admit that it was your suggestion."

"Absurd!" The King of Wu would never accept this.

"You went to someone else's palace and killed their king for no reason, and now you want me to take the blame?"

"Chen An, you've gone too far!"

"Then why did you send me to take cities from other countries for no reason? Isn't that going too far?" Qi Zhiyu asked, puzzled.

"Anyway, you've ignited my fighting spirit. You need to give me a convincing reason not to take action, otherwise… King Wu, your suggestion will be the reason I reap the lives of other nations' royal families!"
