The empress called her sister, and the goddess was willing to enter the mortal world
Chapter 76 The Empress's Strategy
It was still dark, but Nan Wanxing's eyes were already open. She looked at the cat lantern in her arms. She had been holding it while sleeping these days, but it didn't do any good. But she didn't throw it away.
She habitually tapped the cat lantern's nose and got up from the bed.
While Ziyou is away, she wants to do her job well.
In the imperial study, Nan Wanxing secretly summoned three ministers, their faces full of seriousness and tension.
"Your Majesty, once the Emperor of Beijing allocates funds, their finances will definitely be in trouble. It will take several years to recover. During this period, if we send more people to integrate them, then we can control Beijing with the help of both inside and outside forces." The Prime Minister analyzed seriously, "They think they have bought peace with gold and silver, so they will definitely let down their guard."
"I second the motion." Another minister stepped forward and said, "Although we already have people in Beijing, it is far from enough. In addition to officials, we also need to infiltrate merchants and civilians."
Nan Wanxing looked at the minister who stood up and was deeply impressed.
He was the Lord Sun whom she had sent to be in charge of the Beijing spies. He held a high position and was loyal to Nanyue, not her, but she needed someone like him.
Nan Wanxing raised the corners of his mouth, with a slightly cold arc on his lips, "What do you think, Lord Sun?"
"I think that with such an opportunity, we should not adopt the conservative approach we had before. In addition to intelligence, our people can create chaos within Beijing at the appropriate time, and even incite some officials and generals to rebel."
He would never have taken such a risk in the past. Once discovered, the two countries would have gone to war. But now that Your Majesty has provided them with such favorable conditions, what's wrong with taking a radical risk?
"I think what Elder Sun said makes sense. After this, they have no strength to fight again. Before they can take over Beijing with fewer casualties, I think they can still plunder Beijing's money. Not the national treasury, but the money of the dignitaries."
This person was not a confidant, but she had specifically called him here.
Lord Li was an expert at amassing wealth. She was waiting for him to say this, "Lord Li, do you have a foolproof plan?"
"Your Majesty, I need to go to Beijing to understand the truth before I can make a better plan."
Before Nan Wanxing expressed his opinion, Lord Sun stood up to object, "Your Majesty, the less people know about this secret, the less danger there is. This matter has always been my responsibility, and I don't think I need help from others."
"Does Lord Sun mean that one person can make the decision alone?" Nan Wanxing's eyes narrowed, and a cold murderous aura suddenly spread out.
Sensing the empress's murderous intention, he still insisted, "It's not that I am the only one who makes the decision, but Lord Li is indeed not suitable for this matter."
"Whether it is suitable or not is up to me to decide. Isn't it too arbitrary to directly deny some things without trying them?" Nan Wanxing looked at Lord Li, "You should go back and pack your things now, and leave with Lord Sun later." At the end, he added, "Cooperate with Lord Sun."
He thought there was no hope, but he didn't expect the empress to support him. He hurriedly thanked her: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will cooperate with Lord Sun to take down Beijing as soon as possible."
He walked out with a smile in his eyes.
Elder Sun's face turned red with anger, "Your Majesty..."
Nan Wanxing interrupted him, "I know that he is a person who is greedy for money and can be easily bribed."
This was beyond the expectations of Lord Sun. "Then why did Your Majesty arrange for him to come in?"
Nan Wanxing raised her lips, "This man has a strong ability to amass wealth. Even if he is bribed, he will give up some of the gold and silver he has pocketed." She exuded the indifference and ruthlessness of a king. "If he is bribed, then the truth of the information he knows depends on Elder Sun, doesn't it?"
Her eyes were filled with indifference. "This man must be well taken care of. I want him to provide you with funds while also being a good double agent."
She glanced at Elder Sun and said, "This matter is too dangerous. Elder Sun's life will inevitably be threatened at any time over there. If necessary, this person should be sacrificed."
Elder Sun suddenly realized that His Majesty was arranging a way out for him and finding a scapegoat. "Your Majesty, rest assured. I will make full use of his value."
"Unless death is inevitable, this person must be kept safe by me."
"I understand."
A person who is good at making money with a good economic mind, even if he is not loyal to the court, can bring great surprises as long as he uses it properly.
The two people came out of the imperial study in a very happy mood, as the unification of the world was a foregone conclusion.
The Prime Minister said to Lord Sun with concern, "You must take good care of yourself and don't lose your life on the eve of victory."
"Prime Minister, rest assured, I will definitely witness this historic moment with my own eyes."
Nan Wanxing in the imperial study was not as happy as she had imagined. "Eunuch Wang, do you think I am cruel and ruthless?"
From the perspective of the Emperor of Nanyue, how can everything Your Majesty has done be denied?
"Your Majesty, I don't feel that way. I just feel a little distressed."
Nan Wanxing shifted his gaze to Eunuch Wang.
Facing the gaze of His Majesty, Eunuch Wang gritted his teeth and decided to speak out his presumptuous words, "As a king, you must keep your word and set an example for the world. If you break your promise openly in the future, how can you still be trusted?"
"The method was invented by humans. Who said I broke my promise? It was Emperor Bei Jing who first sent troops to attack Nanyue. I was just defending myself." Her eyes were cold and her voice was oppressive. "Whatever the winner writes is the truth."
Eunuch Wang asked worriedly, "What about the goddess? If Your Majesty does this, won't the goddess stop him?"
He had watched her grow up before his eyes, and he didn't want anything to happen to His Majesty.
"Ziyou."
It would be great if she could sleep until everything is settled.
She really didn't want to plot against her.
"I will find a chance to talk to Ziyou."
His Majesty's low voice made Eunuch Wang very sad. He could see that His Majesty had complicated feelings for the goddess. He hoped that everything would be as His Majesty wished.
"Has Emperor Bei Jing left?"
"Not yet. He has been enjoying the flowers and drinking tea these days. He is having a very happy time."
Sensing His Majesty's intention, Eunuch Wang said, "He doesn't seem to have any intention of returning in the near future. Should we send someone to remind him?"
"Can other people's advice work? He's not afraid of anyone."
Eunuch Wang smiled and said, "Your Majesty is right. You have to take charge of such an important task yourself." He raised his eyes and glanced at Nan Wanxing. "If your Majesty doesn't urge him, he will definitely wait until the goddess comes out before leaving."
It’s wishful thinking to want to see Ziyou.
She refused to let him see her.
"Let's go to Qiuhong Palace."
"Yes."
Eunuch Wang smiled very dotingly.
