Prime Minister Liu threw the letter on the table, his chest heaving violently.

If it wasn't far from Dajing, he would definitely rush there with the imperial doctors, spread rumors first and then say that they were doctors specially sent by Emperor Bei Xiao, let the people be grateful first and then naturally lead the troops to station in Dajing and directly take down the imperial city!

He asked the butler to send the secret guard away safely, and then hurried to do what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had ordered.

No matter what happens in other countries, as long as the people of Beixiao have enough food and clothing and are in good health, that's enough.

When the imperial doctors of the Imperial Medical Bureau learned about Dajing's situation, they began to cook pots of medicine to prevent the plague on the streets.

Not only can the people of Beixiao drink it for free, but even merchants from other countries can have a free bowl.

Faced with the envious eyes of merchants from other countries, the people of Beixiao felt extremely proud.

The people of Beixiao straightened their backs and spontaneously helped the doctors of the Imperial Medical Bureau to make soup and add firewood.

Some people even pushed away the imperial physician who was serving the soup to prevent him from doing it.

For a moment, the scene was extremely harmonious.

Seeing this scene, many merchants really wanted to settle down in Beixiao.

Looking around, Beixiao cares about its people more than any other country.

I heard from the people in the capital that even the small businesses they run.

They were all taught by the imperial court, and they just paid taxes and rent to the court every month.

But even so, they saved a lot of money.

I heard that at the beginning, the people could not afford the rent and taxes, and the court even exempted them from paying silver for one month!

Oh God, why don’t they let such a great thing happen?

I wonder if Bei Xiao is still teaching them how to do small business?

If this continues, Beixiao's national strength will certainly not be inferior to Dongcui.

Beijing Suburbs Black Wind Village

Wang Suihuan was looking at the new room with joy on his face.

Widow Zhao had never seen such a beautifully decorated room.

Especially the large carved bed and the various jewelry and hairpins on the dressing table.

Widow Zhao turned to look at Wang Suihuan who was smiling beside her.

God must have felt that Sui Sui had a hard life before, so he found her a good father like Brother Wang.

Even though Brother Wang is not in Beixiao right now, this room must have been prepared in advance.

It is winter now, but the house is warm and cozy, which shows that Brother Wang is not only attentive but also considerate.

Even Dahuang lived in a luxurious doghouse in the yard.

Wang Suihuan happily turned around in the room before running over and nestling in Widow Zhao's arms.

"Aunt Zhao, when do you think Daddy will be back?"

At this moment, Wang Suihuan wished he could see his father immediately.

Widow Zhao rubbed Wang Suihuan's head and said softly, "Your father will be back on New Year's Eve! We will be good and obedient every year!"

Wang Suihuan nodded sensibly: "Don't worry, Aunt Zhao, Suisui will wait for Daddy to come back. I have even prepared New Year gifts for Aunt and Daddy!"

When Widow Zhao heard this, a hint of kindness flashed in her eyes.

She feels that Sui Sui is her lucky star.

Ever since the head of the family passed away, the villagers not only looked down on her but also secretly said that she was unlucky in marriage.

When the men in the village saw that her man was gone, they tried every way to take advantage of her.

She approached the village chief several times, but not only did he not help her, he also imitated the men in the village and asked her to become his mistress!

If it wasn’t for that night when I ran into Sui Sui running away.

Otherwise, you wouldn't have such a good fate to come to the capital to enjoy life.

Widow Zhao couldn't help but sniff, feeling that this life was worth it.

"Sui Sui in our family is the most sensible one, so Auntie is waiting for our Sui Sui's New Year gift!"

The other people in Heifeng Manor were also surprised to see this magnificent manor.

Some aunts even walk with their feet turned on.

When they were forced to become bandits, they never imagined that they would live in such a nice house.

Now, not only do they have a place to live, but each family also has dozens of acres of land.

It’s not far from this farm, and they will be able to be self-sufficient in the future.

Moreover, Wang Baben gave them some silver every month for food, clothing and daily expenses.

Everyone felt very content.

Xiqi Palace Gate

King Xiqi was sitting on his horse, wearing armor and with a stern face.

Today is the day when he will lead the army in person. With an army of 100,000, he will surely be able to capture Tianyang.

I have to say, he is really too arrogant.

With the command of marching, the team slowly moved.

King Xiqi walked in the front, followed by his majestic deputy general and cavalry.

After a half-month long journey, the army finally arrived at Yunyin Pass on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month.

King Xiqi distributed the battle plan without even having time to rest.

After discussing all night, everyone decided to attack Tianyang on New Year's Eve.

A sneer appeared on King Xiqi's lips. This time he would definitely destroy the thing that could blow people up with his own hands!

Humph! That unlucky thing caused him to lose many generals.

Therefore, only by destroying it can one slightly relieve the anger in one's heart that has nowhere to vent.

After a night of rest, the Xiqi army launched an attack on Tianyang on New Year's Eve.

Ning Ye, Cang Yan and others had already discovered the situation and made full preparations.

The dark city walls were filled with Tianyang soldiers.

Qi Sha and his men had already set up traps and ambushed on both sides of the road on the route that the Xiqi army had to take.

King Xiqi was not walking at the front of the army at this time, but was walking in the center of the army, protected by dozens of secret guards with high martial arts skills.

He had already changed his armor into the armor worn by the deputy general, so that he would be able to avoid the attack of the mysterious weapon.

Qi Sha and others hid in the dark and used night vision binoculars to find out that the Xiqi army was almost at the trap.

As the Xiqi army got closer and closer to the trap, Qi Sha and others clenched their bows and arrows and were ready to take action at any time.

A loud bang caused the Xiqi army to panic in an instant.

The heart of King Xiqi rose to his throat. Was this loud noise comparable to thunder made by that mysterious weapon?

The loud noise continued, and the generals in the front quickly made countermeasures.

The solution is to stop the army here and send hundreds of soldiers to test the trap with their lives.

The selected Xiqi soldiers felt that this was an infinite honor, and they rode their horses towards the trap without hesitation.

These hundreds of Xiqi cavalrymen soon lost their lives.

The general sent another group of people to explore the way ahead.

Qi Sha and the others took advantage of their pause and growled, "Shoot!"

When the soldiers heard the order, they shot arrows in their hands at the Xiqi soldiers at a rapid speed.

"No! There's an ambush!"

The Xiqi general drew his sword and fought desperately, trying to see clearly where the arrow came from.

But it was dark, and arrows were flying from all directions, so he had no way to hide.

He was soon hit by an arrow and fell off his horse.

The King of Xiqi, who was hiding in the center of the army, had a gloomy face and was trying his best to wave away the arrows.

Qi Sha and his men soon used up all the arrows they brought with them. He gave the order without hesitation: "Retreat!"

Their goal was to first kill a group of Xiqi's troops and at the same time undermine their morale.

King Xiqi keenly noticed that the number of arrows was decreasing. After thinking for a moment, he realized that these people must have used up all their arrows.

He roared, "They've run out of arrows, chase them!"
