Traveling through the millennium: creating a prosperous dynasty with you

Those who harbored ill intentions would surely be on pins and needles and feel uneasy upon hearing the news of the emperor's grandson's return. Perhaps they would be impatient to take action, which would just give Long Yi a golden opportunity to gradually purge the treacherous villains in the court...

The next morning, just as the sky was turning pale, An Chen and Xu Zhen said goodbye to the sect leader and quietly set off on their journey. They drove a helicopter and sped westward, deep into the border of Western Shu.

After arriving at a remote place, they chose to land and then cleverly disguised themselves as local people of Western Shu.

The two of them explored various information along the way, and spared no effort to collect intelligence about the dispute between the King of Western Shu and the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince held some military power, while the King tried to weaken the Crown Prince's power.

An Chen said: "The crown prince is cruel and inhumane, and has no moral bottom line; the king is also not a good person. Neither of them is a good person. We must either take over Western Shu or find a new master who will obey our orders."

Xu Zhen: "Since we are here, why bother? There are many herbs in Western Shu, so it is better to keep them with us."

An Chen: "Okay, I'll listen to my dear wife."

Xu Zhen said solemnly, "Back then, when the Nanzhao royal family was caught in civil strife, the people of Xishu played a role in fueling the flames. It can be said that they were the catalyst for that chaos. I didn't expect that today, they would be so bold and reckless and openly send troops. You know, after three years of the epidemic, the food supply of various countries is very tight. Xishu itself does not produce a lot of food, and their country should be in chaos at this moment."

An Chen echoed, "Yes! We have been struggling to find a suitable excuse to send troops to attack Xishu, and we are anxious about this! Now, the royal family of Nanzhao has taken the initiative to ask An Guo for asylum. This is a great opportunity! As long as the news spreads, we can take advantage of the opportunity to capture Xishu in one fell swoop and turn it into our medicine garden."

Xu Zhen raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile: "Haha, great! In this case, we can't just sit there, we have to find some fun and stir up this puddle of water to make it even more turbid."

However, after hearing the news that Nanzhao was going to Anguo for help, the people of Western Shu did not really realize how serious the current situation was.

They thought that the "seeds" they had planted carefully after years of lurking in other countries had taken deep roots and were about to be harvested.

These "seeds" may be secret agents, spies, or other forms of infiltration, but the people of Western Shu firmly believe that they are enough to make themselves invincible in this turmoil.

Unexpectedly, their seeds still did things step by step. After several months of reform, they were completely left behind and incompatible with the real Anguo people.

After several purges by Guishamen, the imperial court and others, most of the seeds they had planted had been removed.

Unfortunately, at that time, Western Shu was busy with internal struggles and had no time to care about the crisis hidden behind this matter, let alone realize why it had not received any feedback information.

An Chen and Xu Zhen decided to take advantage of the conflicts within Xishu and stir up internal strife. They secretly contacted ministers who were dissatisfied with the monarch or the crown prince and incited them to launch a coup.

At the same time, they spread rumors that An Guo was about to send troops to attack Western Shu, causing panic among the people.

A small village on the border between Xishu and Anguo

"Erniu, where are you going with your family?"

"Aunt, I heard that Anguo's army is about to attack us. They are protected by the goddess. How can ordinary people like us defeat them?"

"That's right. Right now, the prince and the king are at loggerheads. How can they care about ordinary people like us?"

"So, you guys are leaving too?"

"Hey! Who would be willing to leave their homeland and flee? If I don't leave, I might lose my life. Erniu, wait a minute, I'll pack my things right away, and we'll go together, so we can have someone to accompany us on the road."

"Zhu Zi, did you hear something? Do you really want to leave?"

"Uncle Wang, my brother is in the military camp. He sent a message saying that the grandson of the emperor of Nanzhao has returned to the country."

"Just come back. What foundation can a person who has been wandering outside for 10 or 20 years have? He thinks he can compete with our Western Shu army. Isn't he overestimating his own abilities?"

"He alone is indeed not worth mentioning, but do you know? He is a subordinate of the goddess. I heard that the goddess went back to Nanzhao with him!"

"Is the news true?"

"I heard about it, too. My father-in-law works in the palace. He accidentally heard that people from Nanzhao had gone to Anguo for help. Everyone knows that the goddess and King Chen are husband and wife. If the two of them join forces, our Western Shu will be in danger!"

"I have heard of Prince Chen. He is brave and good at fighting and is the war god of Anguo. But is the princess really that godly?"

"Some time ago, I followed the boss to deliver medicinal materials to the Dongfu City team in Anguo, and I heard a lot about the goddess. She is not only powerful, but also has extraordinary abilities. I heard that their fine seeds and food all appeared with a wave of the goddess' hand. Not only that, the goddess always rides a magical instrument when she goes out, which can fly in the sky and disappear in the blink of an eye. She also has a two-wheeled vehicle that can run on the ground at an extremely fast speed."

"Yes, I heard that the goddess can create millions of soldiers with a wave of her hand. We only have so many people, fighting with her is just courting death."

"What else is there to say? Hurry up and pack your things, and let's go together."

"But Erniu, where are we going?"

"I heard that Anguo is looking for people to open up wasteland everywhere. As long as you settle down there, you can get good farmland and a house. I have worked as a clerk in Dongfu City for several years. I want to ask my boss to be a witness for me. I want to settle down in a certain place."

"Erniu, we are from the same village. We have been together for so many years. You can't just sit there and do nothing about your fellow villagers."

"Anyone who wants to go can come together, but let me be frank. If something unexpected happens there, it's your own choice. You can't put the blame on me."

"Erniu, rest assured. You are our benefactor. How can we repay kindness with hatred?"

"That's right, we are all volunteers. Let's talk first. I'll go back and pack my things."

Upon hearing this, everyone dispersed and rushed home to pack their luggage.

The older people in the village are reluctant to leave, and in many families the children are persuading their parents to leave together.

An Chen and Xu Zhen passed by here and heard a very fierce quarrel in a house.

"Son, don't believe everything you hear. Our prince is so powerful, how could he allow the Anguo army to attack us?"

"The prince? Dad, he and the king are fighting to the death, how can he care about our lives?"

"No matter how much they fight, it's just our own country's business. If it's really an invasion from outside, I believe they won't ignore it."

"Dad, how many years have you served the prince? Now, you are seriously injured because you blocked a sword for him. He just asked the imperial physician to treat your injuries, and seeing that you were no longer useful, he sent you back directly. He didn't even pay for your medical treatment. We have already spent all our family savings on your treatment. Now that it has come to this, you are still speaking for the prince."

"You are not allowed to speak of the prince like that. He is also doing this for us, Xishu."

"He just wants power. If it's for the good of the people, he wouldn't have started a rebellion. No matter who we fight against, we are the common people who will suffer. We have nothing to eat or drink. What has he done for us? How much of the relief food given to us by the king has reached us? Didn't it all go into the prince's palace?"

"Shut up, the prince must have his reasons."

"Dad, you have changed. You only have the prince in your heart. Have you ever thought about your children and your family?"

"I-ah... my head hurts!"

"Dad, what's wrong with you?"

"Headache, headache, medicine, please give me medicine, please give me medicine, I will not betray the prince, give me medicine..."

"Father, father..."

An Chen: "I didn't expect the soldiers of the Prince of Western Shu to protect him so much."

Xu Zhen: "It's not normal at first glance. I just scanned it and the old man was poisoned. No wonder none of his soldiers retreated even though they were seriously injured."

An Chen: "This is simply insane. Is there any way to cure this poison?"

Xu Zhen: "Yes, it's similar to a hallucinogenic poison. The pharmacists in Xishu are really amazing. They can make such a powerful drug. With a little improvement, it can be made into an anesthetic."

An Chen: "I heard that the prince has hundreds of pharmacists. It would be a good thing if I could use all of them."

Xu Zhen: "The people have begun to riot. Let's go to the capital and add fuel to the fire for the prince and his men."

An Chen: "Okay."

Xu Zhen: "Should we save this old man?"

An Chen: "His son is a sensible man. If it's not too much trouble, save his life. Maybe you can also add fuel to the rumors."

Xu Zhen asked An Chen to wait outside. She flew the aircraft over his house, and the father and son were frightened and panicked.

Xu Zhen: "Xishu poisoned the people of other countries, and even spared its own soldiers. God is merciful, and I am here to save you."

"You, you are the goddess?"

"That's right. Now all countries are trying to find ways to settle their people, but Xishu has been stirring up wars and fighting other countries. I passed by your house and saw that the poison in your father's body has controlled his mind. You are a filial son, so I came to ask if I can help your father detoxify?"

"You are truly a goddess! Please have mercy on me and save my father. Now, the prince has gone mad. I am willing to worship the goddess as my new master. Please have mercy on us and point out a way for us to survive!"

Xu Zhen calmly used the toxin dialysis machine to remove the toxins from the old man, and then said calmly: "Get up, he is fine now."

The old man was filled with gratitude and kowtowed repeatedly, saying, "Thank you, Goddess, for your kindness! I have followed the prince for more than ten years. I have risked my life for him countless times, but I never expected that he would treat me like this. Today, thanks to the goddess's rescue, I was able to save my life. Now that I am in good health, I am willing to do my best to serve the goddess!"

"Your family has finally reunited, but the situation in West Shu is turbulent right now, so you should find a safe place to hide as soon as possible."

"Goddess, you don't know that although I returned home seriously injured this time, the prince did not dismiss me from my post. At present, I still have the power to dispatch troops and horses."

"Oh? You hold military power?"

"That's right. Goddess, if you hadn't saved my life, I would never have understood until my death how the prince could be so cruel and heartless to those of us who swore to follow him till death! Since he was so unkind and unjust to us first, don't blame me for turning against him in the future!"

"Now, I'm sure you've heard about the situation in Xishu. How many innocent people have suffered in this fight for the throne! What's even more abominable is that they dared to send troops to attack Nanzhao. This is simply an unforgivable crime!"

"Goddess, I am willing to return to the army and serve as your internal support."

"Great! You just need to put what I give you on him."

Xu Zhen took out a small and exquisite locator and explained to the old man in detail how to use it. Then he turned and left, and rushed towards the capital of Xishu with An Chen.

At this moment, the situation in Western Shu was becoming increasingly chaotic. The king and the crown prince were so busy dealing with each other's suppression that they could not calm down and think about the problems.

All of this was carefully planned by An Chen and Xu Zhen. As time went on, the civil strife in Western Shu became more and more serious.

At the same time, An Chen and Xu Zhen were secretly collecting rare herbs from Western Shu and transporting them to An Guo.

Anguo, the emperor stood on the city wall, overlooking the precious medicinal materials that were continuously transported back, and his heart was filled with joy. These rare herbs not only represent the prosperity of Anguo, but also a symbol of national strength, providing protection for the lives of the people of Anguo.

At the same time, in the distant West Shu, An Chen and Xu Zhen were closely following the situation there. They found that the civil unrest in West Shu was spreading like wildfire, quickly spreading to every corner, and the whole society was in chaos. However, this was exactly the result they expected.

An Chen and Xu Zhen cleverly took advantage of the civil strife and secretly fanned the flames. In the name of the goddess, they rescued the injured people everywhere, winning people's admiration and gratitude. For a time, the people of West Shu worshipped the goddess to a fanatical degree. Many people even began to flee to Anguo, including both ordinary people and many wealthy merchants.

"It seems that our plan has been a great success so far!" An Chen said to Xu Zhen with a smile and satisfaction.

"Yes, but we still can't let our guard down." Xu Zhen reminded with a cautious attitude, "After all, Xishu has deployed many spies in other countries. They will never surrender easily."

As the two were talking, a mysterious letter was delivered to An Chen. He unfolded the letter and read the words on it, frowning, "Looking at this situation, it seems that someone doesn't want us to live a smooth life..."
