The East Palace, the residence of the pure heart.

Two-year-old Wu Xiuning was riding a wooden horse in the yard, muttering loudly words like "charge" and "kill the enemy".

Chu Ning heard her voice as soon as he approached.

He was slightly stunned, and with a look of doubt, he quickly walked into the yard.

Wu Xiuning was seen holding a wooden sword, riding a wooden horse, and wearing a big red cloak. He looked very heroic.

Although she is so young, she has a heroic look in her eyes.

Chu Ning held his forehead.

He likes to wield swords and guns at such a young age. I'm afraid he will be as stubborn as the empress when he grows up. His temper and personality are probably similar to Feng Mulan's. He will start fighting if he disagrees with something.

If it was anyone else it would be fine, but this was his daughter.

Chu Ning spun around, rushed over, and hugged Wu Xiuning in his arms.

But Wu Xiuning was not angry at all. Instead, she smiled and said, "The Crown Prince is here. Come and play the war game with me."

The little hand pointed: "Look, I have killed them all."

Chu Ning's mouth twitched, and he glanced at the messy scarecrow on the ground, and couldn't help asking: "Were you also so brave in the Great Zhou Palace?"

"Brave? That's a good word. I like it!"

Wu Xiuning said in a baby voice: "When I grow up, I want to make great achievements on the battlefield. I want to be a female general!"

Chu Ning had a headache.

As a girl, there are so many things she likes, but she just likes to charge into battle.

It seems that if he has the chance, he will unify the world, make it a war-free world, and prevent Wu Xiuning from going to the battlefield.

He put Wu Xiuning on the ground, stretched out his hand to pinch her smooth cheek, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you have no chance to go to the battlefield."

After saying that, without waiting for Wu Xiuning to speak, he turned around and went into the palace, leaving Wu Xiuning behind with a confused look on her face.

Inside the palace.

The empress, dressed in a red robe, sat upright in her seat, holding a memorial in her hand.

Seeing this, the maid bowed and left.

Wu Zhao didn't even turn her head. She looked at the memorial in her hand and said with a smile, "It's rare to see you come here on your own initiative. Did you come to a conclusion on that matter?"

Chu Ning narrowed his eyes, and a hint of coldness flashed across his face: "A war with the Great Qin is inevitable. My Liangzhou cavalry needs to borrow the road from your Great Zhou!"

Wu Zhao paused for a moment, put down the memorial in her hand, and showed a solemn expression on her face: "Are you sure you want to fight? Are you sure?"

It takes courage to go to war with the Qin Dynasty. At least she doesn't dare to go to war with the Qin Dynasty.

Although Chu had annexed Zhao and Yan in the past two years, Yan had just been pacified and the Chu army also needed to rest. Going to war with Qin at this time would undoubtedly be disadvantageous to Chu.

But Chu Ning said with a serious expression: "This battle is 30-70!"

"30-70?"

Wu Zhao looked a little unhappy: "With such a low chance of winning, you actually dare to go to war with Qin, don't you know..."

"I am King Qi, and Ying Zhengsan!" Chu Ning interrupted Wu Zhao calmly.

When Wu Zhao heard for the first time that Qin had such a low winning rate, she was stunned.

The Qin Dynasty was the most powerful country in the world, but it only had a 30% chance of winning against Chu Ning?

"Did I hear wrongly, or did you say wrong?"

Wu Zhao's face was full of disbelief: "Why is Qin's chance of winning so low? And I received news that the leader of this army is Bai Qi!"

"This man is known as the God of War of Qin. He is invincible in every battle. Moreover, he and you have a grudge for killing your son. He will definitely not let go of the opportunity to invade Yan easily."

Bai Qi is not an ordinary person. Once he takes action, Chu’s chances of winning will be too slim.

As for Chu Ning's 70% chance of winning, she just thought that Chu Ning was trying to give courage to the State of Chu.

But Chu Ning still looked calm: "If this battle was led by someone else, perhaps Qin could have increased its chances of winning by two levels."

"But in this battle, Bai Qi is the general, so we can use him to destroy part of the Qin army."

He then briefly outlined his battle plan.

The more Wu Zhao listened, the more frightened she became, and the more she felt that Chu had a better chance of winning than Qin.

After Chu Ning finished speaking, Wu Zhao fell silent.

If Chu Ning's plan was carried out, the Qin State might really suffer a crushing defeat in this battle.

Thinking of this, Wu Zhao narrowed her eyes and a look of determination flashed across her face: "Since you are sure, I will risk my life to help you!"

"If this battle can destroy part of the Qin army and weaken the power of the Qin Empire, it will be beneficial to both you and me in the future!"

Chu Ning was somewhat moved. He took two steps forward, took Wu Zhao's hand, and said in a deep voice:

"Although I know you will agree, I still want to say thank you."

"Come on this!"

Wu Zhao rolled her eyes and said, "You are getting married soon, so you should save this for your wedding night to tell Princess Changping."

This is jealousy.

Chu Ning shook his head helplessly: "Speaking of Princess Changping, this king is a little confused. Why is she unwilling to meet with me, or even unwilling to send someone to contact me?"

Even if there is a rule that unmarried women cannot meet the groom, it should be okay to send someone to contact him, right?

After all, both of them are responsible for the current state of relations between the two countries.

However, after Princess Changping moved into the posthouse, she did not send anyone to contact him. Even when he wrote a letter and sent someone to deliver it, the other party never replied.

Wu Zhao shook her head and chuckled when she heard this: "You think too much. Although Princess Changping is like a man, she is still a woman in the final analysis."

"Any woman would be shy about getting married, and she really can't meet you at this moment."

"Besides, she is in a very awkward position between her father and her future husband. If she shows up, it might make things worse."

"You should be thankful that she has feelings for you, otherwise if she started making a scene, Kyoto City would probably be in a state of chaos."

The matter of the Crown Princess had always been something that Ying Zheng had requested, and Princess Changping had never mentioned a word about it.

If Princess Changping came to Kyoto and announced that she wanted to become the Crown Princess, she would definitely force him into a desperate situation.

Now that Princess Changping remained silent, it gave him room to display his abilities.

"That does make some sense. I hope I am just overthinking it."

Chu Ning showed a trace of worry in his eyes: "I don't know why, but my eyelids have been twitching these past few days, as if something big is about to happen."

"event?"

Wu Zhao chuckled and said, "The day after tomorrow is your enthronement ceremony and wedding day. Isn't this a big deal?"

Chu Ning knew that she was trying to comfort him, so he just chuckled and pretended to be relaxed: "That's right, the wedding is the day after tomorrow, and it's been calm these few days, so nothing big should happen."

"By the way, why does Xiuning always like to fight and kill?"

After his own problems were resolved, he began to care about Wu Xiuning's situation.

Wu Zhao glared at him fiercely when she heard this: "How dare you bring this up? Don't you see whose child she is? She likes fighting and killing. Isn't that what she learned from you?"

Chu Ning was stunned for a moment, then he realized that he had destroyed two countries in three years, so he should be the one who liked fighting and killing.

"Forget it, I will let Zhao Yu teach her well later."

Since Wu Xiuning is like this, why not teach her a lesson more severely?

Next, we just have to wait for the enthronement ceremony and wedding the day after tomorrow!
