Traveling through troubled times: Princess disguises herself as a man and becomes a soldier to earn

The Valley Master waved his hand and touched his chest: "Don't talk for now. I'm old and haven't been out for a long time. I didn't expect that the outside world has changed so much. I need to slow down a bit."

Mo Yuan nodded, stood up and led his men out. When they arrived at the swamp, he looked at the endless green and his expression relaxed a lot.

"Master, what is that plan? It was written by the princess. Didn't she get hit on the head and become illiterate? How could she write something so meticulous?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Leng Feng hit him on the head with his sword sheath, and he cried out, "Leng Feng, what are you doing? It hurts so much."

Leng Feng glared at him: "Shut up, noisy"

Mo Yuan looked at the swamp with a calm expression: "My wife came up with the plan. I supplemented it with my brother. It is a ten-year plan. Even if war breaks out, it will be no problem to maintain food and grass for ten years."

"If we don't extort money from the people, there won't be unrest in Qi. If there is no internal unrest, we will have the energy to fight externally. War is a war of attrition, which requires constant spending of money, food, and people."

"We did bring back a lot of food during our previous trip to Yu Country. We have been preparing food and fodder along the way, trying not to consume the people of Qi Country. Only with the plan can the Valley Master believe that we are not just empty talk."

"Otherwise, just a few casual words of benevolence and morality will require others to risk the destruction of their entire clan. After all, the weight of this life-saving grace is still not enough. We also need to give them confidence that we can win."

Zhuiyun suddenly realized something, and a look of enlightenment appeared on her face: "As expected of a princess, she is so powerful. If the princess becomes the emperor of Qi Kingdom, I guarantee that everything will be fine. But if she becomes the emperor, then the harem..."

Mo Yuan narrowed his eyes, his eyes became dangerous: "Why, you want Madam to be the emperor, and then have a harem, right? Shut up, or be poisoned and silenced, make your choice."

"Yes, I was the one who spoke too much."

secret room

The long table was full of people. The Valley Master sat in the main seat with a solemn look on his face. The booklet in his hand, which was also the plan, was almost torn to pieces by him. It had to be said that he was shaken. Qi State might not be as weak as he thought.

"My fellow elders, we have called you here to discuss important matters. Please read this battle plan first. After you have read it, we can discuss other matters. This will help everyone have a clear idea."

He knew that if he said anything rashly, the elders would definitely oppose it. Instead of trying to persuade them, it would be better to let them see for themselves how much preparation Qiguo had made.

He has considered so much for the people. Such benevolence and righteousness is rare.

The elders looked at each other, took the booklet and started reading it, exclaiming from time to time: "No, how is this possible? Qi Country is so powerful, it's unbelievable."

“…Let me see it!”

"Let me take a look first, stop talking nonsense."

The Valley Master reached out his hand and took the book back, then stood up and said, "How about this, I will read it to you once, so that you can all know it, and you don't have to waste time reading it one by one. General Mo doesn't have that much time to wait."

After a stick of incense had passed, the secret room was dead silent and no one spoke a word.

Seeing their shocked faces, the Valley Master sat down and leaned back in his chair without saying much. He told them to wait for them to react before he could talk slowly. He himself hadn't recovered from the shock of the incident.

The Divine Doctor Valley moved around a lot and finally settled down in Qi State. To be honest, they didn't want to move anymore. The consequence of continuing to remain neutral was that once Qi State won, they would not have the face to stay.

If they were defeated, to be honest, going to other countries would not be as good as Qi Country. Usually, no one harasses them. If they were other countries, they would have been controlled and used for their own purposes, using despicable means.

a moment later

The elders all looked over and asked in unison, "What does the Valley Master mean?"

The Valley Master exhaled, his eyes full of determination: "War is inevitable. What we can do is to choose a shelter for the Divine Doctor Valley. Compared with the attitudes of other countries towards the Divine Doctor Valley, I am more willing to bet on Qi Country."

"I would rather believe in a benevolent and righteous country that considers the people in all preparations before the war and never thinks of plundering the people."

"Well, the Valley Master means that we should surrender to the Qi Kingdom."

"That's what I mean. It's settled. From now on, our ancestors will live in Qi Country forever. We don't have to hide from place to place. They will treat us with courtesy and will not imprison us."

The elders looked at each other in bewilderment. To be honest, they did not believe in Emperor Ming. He was a madman who wanted to live forever.

"But Emperor Ming..."

The Valley Master raised his lips slightly and took out a letter and handed it over: "This is the situation in the capital. As long as the princess is alive, Emperor Ming will not do anything. No matter how incompetent he is, he is no match for the princess."

"Besides, with his physique, can he still live for three years? Once he dies, there will be new hope for the crown prince to ascend the throne."

"Yes, if the Valley Master says so, we agree to surrender, but not to Emperor Ming, but to the princess. If there are conditions in the future, we will raise them directly with her."

Others echoed, "Yes, His Majesty has a higher status. Besides, compared to Emperor Ming, we are more willing to trust the princess. She wrote the plan and proposed the retirement plan. The most important thing is that Emperor Ming agreed."

"It can be seen that the princess is the one who is in charge. So why should we go to such lengths? It would be better to just turn to the princess. Even if the princess doesn't take care of things in the future, we still have the Mohist School."

The Valley Master nodded repeatedly and agreed, "Yes, that's what I mean. Gender is not important. What's important is that we can live a stable life without wandering around."

The elders had tears in their eyes. They had suffered so much. Because of their good medical skills, people would fight over them. They had to use threats and inducements, and they had to keep running away. They were really too tired.

Wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, she said, "Well, what we want has always been very simple, to walk out with dignity and not be assassinated by others. Perhaps this wish can only be realized in Qi Country."

"An innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure. This is a problem in other countries. The people in power are incompetent and do not treat the people as human beings, nor do they treat us as human beings."

The Valley Master was also very sad when he heard this.

"Okay, since you have no objection, I will tell General Mo earlier that even if we want to go, we can't lose this valley. Let them send people to guard it, and we will go with half of them."

"Yes, this way the valley will be taken care of, there will be no war for the time being, and not too many doctors will be needed. It's killing two birds with one stone. General Mo should have no objection."

Everyone came out of the secret room and went back to their respective places.

The Valley Master straightened his back and walked towards the swamp. Seeing them from afar, he called out, "General Mo, it's getting late. Let's go have dinner first. We can talk while we eat."

"it is good"

The two men sat down, and the Valley Master smiled and cautiously tested: "General Mo, this is the case. I have discussed with the elders of the clan, and the Divine Doctor Valley is willing to go to the battlefield and help the soldiers."
