"Give the order that from now on, each meal should consist of one hundred dishes. Save money wherever possible."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"The Empress Dowager's concern for the people is truly a blessing for our Great Qing Dynasty and for the people!"
"..."
Amidst a chorus of praise.
An unpleasant voice broke in: "Governor-General Zeng of Zhili requests an audience!"
The Empress Dowager nodded.
Only then did Governor Zeng enter.
"Your Majesty! The latest intelligence on the Crown Prince of Beiliang came this morning outside Beiliang City..."
Governor Zeng hadn't even finished speaking.
Empress Dowager Cixi frowned and waved her hand to interrupt: "These are trivial matters, nothing to worry about. There's no need to report them all the time!"
"Your Majesty, Liyang is a neighboring country of our Great Qing! The closest one! Over 300,000 Northern Liang cavalry are eyeing us covetously. Preparation is key to success, lack of preparation leads to failure. We..."
"enough!"
Empress Dowager Cixi grew impatient: "Our Great Qing has a vast territory. What about neighboring countries? If war breaks out one day, we'll fight if we can win, and if we can't, we'll just cede a piece of land to them!"
"Minister Zeng, don't forget, our Great Qing Dynasty has a vast territory and is a superior nation; we must have a broad mind and magnanimity..."
Governor Zeng: ? ? ?
Cut again?
For decades.
They've already ceded away nearly a million square kilometers of land!
Empress Dowager Cixi thus received the 'glorious' Dharma name of "Master Who Cuts Off Land"!
They...they still show no remorse?
He returned home dejectedly.
Governor Zeng stamped his feet and beat his chest in frustration!
"The Qing Dynasty is doomed!" I sighed silently in my heart, feeling helpless and powerless to reverse the decline.

The martial world and the imperial court, the imperial court and the martial world.
For people in the underworld.
Xu Fengnian's actions are at most just topics of conversation for casual conversation.
Those who truly care about him.
They are the major powers.
To be precise, it refers to the major powers.
Some concluded that Xu Fengnian was a useless person and not worth worrying about, while others believed that he was hiding his true strength and needed to be monitored.
For example, Qin Shi Huang was known for his principle of "better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free."
Like Empress Dowager Cixi, she was already thinking about ceding territory before anything even happened... Well, she's one of a kind among scorpion fathers...
In short.
A single piece of information has entered the world, once again stirring up a storm!
Meanwhile, the much-anticipated Crown Prince of Northern Liang was drinking with Jian Jiuhuang and Li Chungang.
The three drank together until late at night before finally stopping.
"We drank too late. Is Yu Yan already asleep?" Xu Fengnian's body swayed slightly.
He walked unsteadily toward Wang Yuyan's room.
I only remembered it halfway there.
"Since midnight has passed, this is considered the second day..."
"Wudang Mountain, I hope you won't let me down."
There are many routes to Beijing.
The reason for choosing to stay temporarily in Wudang Mountain.
The goal is to leverage local luck to sign in and obtain top-tier rewards.
"Sign in!"
[Ding, sign in successfully! 】
[Check-in Location: Wudang Mountain]
[Reward: Heavenly Fragrance Bean x]
Ah?
Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom?
Xu Fengnian was overjoyed.
This precious item has the miraculous power to bring the dead back to life and preserve youth forever!
and......
"A single one of these could probably be traded for a copy of the Absorption Technique with Zhu Tiedan!"
"After all, Old Zhu was the kind of guy who loved women more than power."
"However... the cultivation technique isn't very interesting. You get it but still have to practice it, which is quite tiring... Sigh, I'll think about it later!"
Keep the four cardamom seeds safe.
Xu Fengnian pushed open Wang Yuyan's door.
Chapter 1: The Moon Invites You Late at Night (Seeking Flowers)
squeak-
The moment the door is opened.
There, three women, Qingniao, Hongshu, and Jiangni, were gathered around Wang Yuyan's bedside.
The girls were talking amongst themselves, though it was unclear what they were saying.
Upon seeing Xu Fengnian arrive, he quickly stood up: "Young Master."
"Hmm, what are you talking about? You seem to be having a lot of fun." Xu Fengnian smiled slightly.
But on the bed,
Wang Yuyan covered her head with the small blanket.
"It's nothing, just some private conversations between young ladies. Now that Your Highness has arrived, we'll take our leave. Please get some rest, Your Highness," Qingniao said with a sweet smile, her manner incredibly obedient.
Then he pulled the sweet potato out of the room.
Jiang Ni passed by.
She then gently pinched Xu Fengnian's waist: "You bad guy, are you going to bully someone again? Be nice to Sister Wang, she... she has a hard life too."
"I know, you clever little girl." Xu Fengnian smiled and pinched Jiang Ni's delicate nose.
Jiang Ni struggled for a moment, expressing her strong protest and dissatisfaction, before leaving the house.
Xu Fengnian understood.
The three women fell here to do ideological work on Wang Yuyan.
And, matters such as how to serve the Crown Prince.
After all, they are more experienced.
I sat down on the edge of the bed.
Xu Fengnian said calmly, "Murong Fu has already been killed by me. I, the young master, will naturally not allow someone who has caused you pain to live any longer."
As early as the afternoon.
Xu Fengnian then secretly ordered the Phantom Squad to take Murong Fu's life.
Hear the words.
The beautiful woman in the quilt trembled involuntarily.
Murong Fu... is dead...
Kill for me?
What an overbearing prince! They had no prior grudges against each other, yet he managed to kill Nan Murong for the sake of a woman!
For a while.
