Wandering the Heavens

"Gao Zhan." Xiao Xuan called out in a hoarse voice as he looked at the sunlight shining through the window panes into the hall.

"Your Majesty, I'm here." Gao Zhan was a little sleepy after staying up all night with Xiao Xuan.

"Go and tell those ministers that I am not feeling well and today's morning court will be cancelled." Xiao Xuan thought for a moment and gave the order.

It's quite shameless to say that we can skip the morning court when the sun is already so high.

Gao Zhan turned around and was about to leave but was stopped again.

"Ask Xia Chun and Xia Dong to come. Also, ask Xie Yu to wait outside the palace."

"Slave, let's do it now."

As soon as Xia Chun entered the hall, she was scolded by Xiao Xuan. As for Xia Dong, Xiao Xuan took a memorial from the table and asked the eunuch to pass it to her to go to Binzhou for verification.

Xia Dong left after receiving the imperial edict and passed by Xie Yu, who was also the imperial edict bearer, outside the hall.

In the afternoon, the news of Ningguo Hou Xie Yu's promotion spread throughout Jinling. In addition to the original patrol camp, he also took over the responsibility of Jinling City Defense and concurrently managed the Xuanjing Division. After Xia Jiang's death, the Xuanjing Division had been unattended. Xia Chun was not up to the task, and there was actually another candidate, but Xiao Xuan was not happy.

Xie Yu had made great contributions in getting rid of Lin Xie, and in the current political situation, all the ministers either defected to the crown prince or followed Prince Yu. Only Xie Yu remained loyal to him impartially. With no one else available, Xiao Xuan temporarily handed over the Xuan Jing Division to Xie Yu.

Under such circumstances, Mei Changsu must move out of Ningguo Marquis Mansion, otherwise with the power that Xie Yu currently controls, it will be very inconvenient for him to implement his plan.

Unlike Mei Changsu, Xie Yu was now in the Xuanjing Division, reviewing the files on Xia Jiang's death. He was in a bad mood. He and Xia Jiang were in the same boat, and Xia Jiang died so tragically. With the image of the Red Flame Army beside him, his own fate would probably not be much better...

"Thank you, Lord Marquis. Have you figured out what it is?" Xia Chun saw him reading it over and over again.

"Well, are you alone? Isn't Xia Dong also in Jinling?" Xie Yu felt that this place was a little eerie because there were fewer people.

"My Lord, Xia Dong received an assignment and went to Binzhou," Xia Chun explained.

"Binzhou?" Xie Yu looked outside with an unnatural look.

"Yes, it's a task that His Majesty personally assigned to me, but I don't know what it is specifically." Xia Chun knew that Xie Yu still had questions.

"Since it is a task assigned by His Majesty himself, I will not ask any more questions. Go and get Sima Lei's file." Xie Yu calmly sent Xia Chun away and continued to look through the files.

When Xie Yu was sorting out the files of the Xuan Jing Si, Yu Xian wanted to slap himself twice.

The booklet on the 100,000 cavalrymen was not that good looking. As soon as he entered Mu Nihuang's room, he saw a mountain of books.

"Sir, these are all the records of Prince Mu's Mansion in Jinling." Mu Nihuang was very tired after sorting out the information of Prince Mu's Mansion in one day. Especially since this was Jinling, a lot of information was not as complete as that in the southern border.

"Get to work!" Yu Xian accepted his fate.

Thinking back, the last time I stayed up so late was because I was training Zhu Yuanzhang's Shen Jiying, and this time...

Yu Xian asked Mu Nihuang to call Mu Qing as well. Since he was going to be the emperor, how could he not study?

In one day and one night, Mu Nihuang and Mu Qing witnessed for the first time the horror of the man in front of them. He sorted out such complicated information in just one day, and in between he also tested the siblings.

Then he compiled a strategy based on the conditions in the southern border. Mu Nihuang initially thought it was a method of training troops, but who knew it was actually a complete military and political strategy. Based on the current military strength, the Mu Palace needed to expand the army to 300,000, including 100,000 infantry and 100,000 naval forces.

Gradually infiltrate and control the southern border politically to ensure that when Nanjing gets out of control, you can smoothly take over the southern border and send troops to the north.

As for the money needed to develop the army, it was obtained by picking out the old and weak who were unable to fight in the army. With the help of the army, they used the special products of the southern border to trade for food and various supplies.

In the end, the future of Prince Mu's Palace was written down word by word by Yu Xian, and eventually formed six thick books.

"These six books are about the strategies of training troops, pacifying the people, doing business, fortifications, talents, and the general situation. Before Xiao Xuan lets the young prince return to the southern border, if there are any questions you don't understand, please write them down. I will come to check and answer your questions regularly." Yu Xian finally finished writing the entire rebellion plan.

Next time when I receive a task, ask No. 9527 if he can bring a notebook and a printer. I almost ruined my hands by writing a strategy of tens of thousands of words with a brush.

"Sir, I rely on my sister to fight in the war. You said Anmin's business has a lot of people behind it...sister..." Mu Qing's face almost turned bitter.

"If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. You don't have to be proficient in these, but you must understand them. Prince Mu's mansion not only has generals, but also a powerful staff. Just select loyal and capable people and let them do the job. As the lord, all you have to do is put them in the right positions, and they will do the rest for you." It was rare for Yu Xian to speak like this in front of the siblings.

"The rest of Prince Mu's staff is fine, except that they don't have the talent to spy on the world's news." Mu Nihuang knew the financial situation of Prince Mu's palace very well.

"So how did your Prince Mu's Palace fight wars all these years?" Yu Xian didn't expect that they didn't even have an intelligence agency.

"The fighting on this battlefield..." Mu Nihuang frowned.

“The so-called planning in the tent can lead to victory thousands of miles away. The premise of planning in the tent is not how well-read a person is, but depends on how much information he has about his opponent! The cavalry of Prince Mu's Palace was born for attack, but from the day you were born, you have used it for defense, allowing the State of Chu to attack the State of Liang to the north again and again. If I were the emperor of Liang, I would have uprooted Prince Mu's Palace on the charge of poor performance in battle.” Yu Xian stabbed the two siblings again.

"If you can go to the southern border in person to preside over important events, everything will go smoothly for Prince Mu's Mansion." Mu Nihuang has become immune to Yu Xian's attacks in the past two days.

"It's too tiring. Just treat me as someone who only has a mouth but no hands." Yu Xian started to act like a rogue.

"But Mu Qing is only eighteen years old and is alone, so it is inevitable that there will be omissions." Mu Nihuang knew that her brother was still too young to shoulder such a heavy responsibility.

When Mu Qing heard her sister say this, she nodded her head so much that her shadow appeared, and she didn't know if she was dizzy or not.

"When the young eagle grows up, it has to learn to fly on its own."

The brother and sister saw a flash before their eyes and Yu Xian had disappeared.

"Okay, go and have a rest for a day, and then study the strategy carefully tomorrow. As for the candidate to assist you, you will find that person," Mu Nihuang comforted.

Mu Qing's face became even more bitter.

"If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight!" Mu Nihuang repeated Yu Xian's words.

"it is good……"

Seeing Mu Qingsheng leave the room in despair, Mu Nihuang put away the seriousness on her face and began to clean up the table. She put the six books close to her body, found a basket to collect the discarded manuscripts and brought them to the yard, and asked her personal soldiers to bring torches to light them until all the papers were burned to ashes. She swept them into the pond to stir them up before leaving to wash and prepare for rest.

It seems that we really need someone to be responsible for gathering information! Mu Nihuang fell asleep while lying on the couch thinking about it.

Yu Xian had no intention of resting. He found a carriage and headed for the royal hunting ground. Nie Feng had been active there since he escaped. Yu Xian wanted to catch him and see what the so-called fire and cold poison was. It would be even better if he could save him and use him for his own benefit.

As the deputy commander of the Red Flame Army and a senior general, Nie Feng has no problem assisting Mu Qing. As long as Nie Feng is controlled, Xia Dong will naturally come over.
