Why mess with her? Even the emperor has to pamper her.

Yun Chuwei turned around and walked towards the map and sand table.

She took a small flag and planted it outside the southeast of Jizhou.

Li Ping and Zhang Gong's expressions changed slightly.

Zhang Gong asked in confusion: "What do you mean, fellow Taoist?"

Yun Chuwei turned his head to look at the two of them and said, "Southeast of Jizhou is Goryeo. General, why don't you and your fellow Taoists go and conquer Goryeo? Once you conquer Goryeo, expand the territory, and then submit a petition to His Majesty, then you don't have to worry about the position of governor not being yours, General?"

Li Ping: …

Zhang Gong: ...

They wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to occupy some of Da Chu's land, but they didn't want to expand Da Chu's territory.

However, what Yun Chuwei said was indeed correct. As long as they could conquer Goryeo, their current predicament would be easily solved.

Li Ping said: "Although Goryeo is a small country, it cannot be destroyed so easily!"

Yun Chu smiled slightly and said, "Compared to the imperial court and the various armies that will attack you in the future?"

Li Ping remained silent.

If we compare them this way, the expedition to Goryeo is definitely simpler.

"But, isn't it too risky to do this?" Li Ping said.

Once they left Jizhou City, there was no turning back.

If you fail, there will be no recovery.

Yun Chuwei nodded slightly: "It is indeed an adventure. General, you can also choose to wait for death here!"

Li Ping: …

Of course he knew that staying here would be just waiting for death, otherwise he would not have asked Yun Chuwei for help.

But she didn't have to say it so bluntly, did she?

He was a little annoyed, and said in a huff, "If I succeed, I will also be the ruler of a small country. Why do I still need to submit a memorial to His Majesty?"

Yun Chuwei's expression was calm: "It depends on what you want. Do you want to recuperate and wait for the right time to conquer the world? Or do you want to recuperate and pay tribute to the Central Plains?"

Li Ping remained silent.

He understood what Yun Chuwei meant.

If the Great Chu collapses, only the forces within the Great Chu will have a chance to fight for the world.

If he is not considered a subject of the Great Chu, he will lose the qualification to fight for the world.

This runs counter to his ideal of conquering the world.

"I have another question." Li Ping looked at Yun Chuwei and asked, "We are a country of etiquette. There should be a reason for us to send troops to a small country, right?"

Yun Chuwei listened, lowered his head, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, handed it to Li Ping, and said: "In recent years, various problems have occurred frequently in Da Chu, and internal conflicts are severe. Your Majesty can hardly take care of the small countries around, so Goryeo has not paid tribute for two years!"

Li Ping took the paper Yun Chuwei gave him and saw that it clearly stated the amount of tribute Goryeo should pay, as well as the years when it had not paid tribute.

Li Ping and Zhang Gong looked at each other, their faces looking very interesting.

They thought they had tried their best to find Yun Chuwei and find a solution.

But after this piece of paper came out, they had a feeling that their actions had always been in Yun Chuwei's plan.

It was as if Yun Chuwei had already known that they would ask her this question.

Yun Chuwei saw the strange looks in their eyes and said with a smile: "Don't think too much, I'm just used to making all kinds of preparations. It's not that I know your thoughts and actions in advance, I'm not that powerful!"

After hearing this, Li Ping breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Gong then asked, "If we decide to go to Korea, will you lend us a helping hand?"

Yun Chu nodded slightly: "Okay!"

Zhang Gong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In that case, fellow Taoist, please stay in the general's mansion first. We still need to discuss this matter carefully!"

Yun Chuwei expressed her understanding.

Leaving your homeland to fight against Goryeo is not an easy thing to do, and it is understandable that it is difficult to make a decision in a short period of time.

-

Yun Chuwei was arranged to live in the backyard of the general's mansion.

Yan Wei naturally followed Yun Chuwei.

After entering the yard, Yan Wei asked Yun Chuwei in confusion: "Miss, what do you want to do?"

He had a feeling that the eldest lady deliberately led Li Ping and others to attack Goryeo.

But he didn't quite understand why the eldest lady did what she did.

The eldest lady clearly wanted to prolong the life of the Great Chu and prevent chaos from breaking out in the world, so why would she teach people to raise troops and exercise self-reliance?

Yun Chu pursed his lips slightly and said slowly: "Since the conflict already exists, it cannot be avoided, but it can be diverted first. There is only so much food in Da Chu. If everyone is eyeing those few resources, fighting will be inevitable sooner or later. If everyone temporarily shifts their attention to the outside, it will be an opportunity."

An opportunity to resolve internal conflicts without bloodshed.

In her previous life, she chose to obey Emperor Tianqi and cooperate with him in suppressing the uprising in Jizhou by force.

Although the result was good, other forces that were ready to make a move did not dare to take any further action.

But both the imperial army and the people of Jizhou paid a heavy price.

In several subsequent rebellions, both sides suffered heavy losses and the people were even more miserable.

Overall, it's very difficult.

In this life, she wants to choose a path that she has never taken in her previous life.

She didn't know if it would work.

She hoped so.

-

Yun Chuwei lives in the main house in the courtyard.

Yan Wei lives in the side room.

Yun Chuwei didn't expect that when she was about to lie down at night, she would feel a dangerous aura.

She put on her clothes and was about to leave, but saw someone entering her room.

That one was a man with a familiar figure.

He entered her room wearing a Yama mask and immediately closed the door.

He obviously didn't expect that Yun Chuwei was staring at him without blinking.

He seemed to want to say something, but didn't say it directly.

He walked in front of Yun Chuwei and said in a hoarse voice: "Follow me!"

After saying that, he reached out, grabbed Yun Chuwei's wrist, and dragged her out.

Yun Chuwei looked at the familiar figure, did not resist, and followed him out.

The man in the Yama mask obviously wanted to take her away.

He pulled her along, avoiding the sentries along the way, intending to escape from the general's mansion.

However, just as they were about to climb over the wall and leave, Li Ping arrived with his men.

After surrounding the man, Li Ping looked at the Yama mask and the man and said, "Who are you? Release Miss Yun immediately!"

The man wearing the Yama mask tightened his hands.

He pulled Yun Chuwei behind him and protected her tightly.

He whispered, "When the fighting starts, you can take the opportunity to leave. My people are waiting outside, and they will take you away safely."

Yun Chuwei stood behind him, feeling the familiar scent lingering at the tip of her nose.

She thought about it, and suddenly made a move, striking the man in front of her on the neck with her knife.

The man was caught off guard, his eyes went dark, and he fell to the ground.

Yun Chuwei subconsciously reached out to catch him.

When I met his eyes, it was no surprise that I saw shock, despair and resentment in his eyes.
