What to do if you have too many golden fingers? Walk sideways!

Northern Yan Kingdom.

After receiving the reply from the Saint Maiden of Southern Xinjiang, the Emperor of Northern Yan immediately summoned civil and military officials to the palace to discuss the matter.

"My dear ministers, the Saint of Southern Border has agreed to join forces with Northern Yan to attack the Central Plains on the first day of next month! After conquering Fengyi Kingdom, both the territory and property and slaves will be divided equally between the two countries."

As soon as the Northern Yan Emperor finished speaking, all the civil and military officials revealed greedy eyes.

They, Bei Yan, have been staying in this bitterly cold land for hundreds of years, and now it's only October and it's already snowing.

This winter will definitely be a cold one. I don’t know how many cattle and sheep will freeze to death and how many people will starve to death.

According to the practice in previous years, people would start to go south to collect money at this time.

However, instead of collecting taxes from the people every year and causing people to starve to death every year, it would be better to directly take over the rich land of the Central Plains.

"Your Majesty is wise! The Central Plains has just experienced a change of dynasty, and their new emperor is actually a woman. Now is the best time to attack!" Minister A stepped forward and flattered him lightly.

Minister B also stepped forward happily and said:

"Your Majesty is wise. According to the information I have gathered, this year, the twelve states in the southern part of Fengyi Country have planted a kind of food called hybrid rice. The harvest has just been completed and the yield is amazing, several times that of previous years. If we can get this batch of food, we can ensure that no one in Beiyan will starve to death within three years!"

Minister C also stepped out and said:

"That woman from Fengyi Kingdom wanted to rent our land in Beiyan to grow crops. Fortunately, Your Majesty is wise and saw through her tricks. She was the one who coveted our Beiyan Kingdom first. Now, everyone in Beiyan knows that the Queen of Fengyi Kingdom wants to invade Beiyan. They are all filled with righteous indignation and wish they could mount their horses and kill the enemy immediately. This time, we will surely succeed in our southward march!"

The Emperor of Northern Yan laughed and said:

"Exactly. Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? How can you grow food in such a bitter and cold place?"

The eldest prince walked out of the queue, looking worried and said:

"Your Majesty, our Princess Ji Rong of Beiyan is still in Fengyi Country. Isn't she their hostage?"

When Princess Ji Rong was mentioned, the expressions of the civil and military officials in the court became subtle.

Everyone who had an affair with her looked regretful.

There were also some upright ministers who looked disdainful.

Especially the Queen's family, they wish Ji Rong would die in Fengyi Country, which would give them more reasons to attack Fengyi Country.

The Emperor of Northern Yan coughed lightly, trying his best to maintain his dignity, and said:

"I have my own arrangements for this!"

A few days ago, he sent a team of secret guards to sneak into Fengyi Kingdom to rescue Princess Ji Rong.

At that time, they would announce that the Queen Mother of Northern Yan was ill and ask Princess Ji Rong to return to Northern Yan as soon as possible.

As long as Princess Ji Rong can leave Fengyi Kingdom before the first day of next month, she will be safe.

He hadn't slept enough with such a stunning beauty. If the Queen hadn't made a big fuss, he would have been reluctant to let her marry.

Now, she is in my hands again.

Next, Northern Yan began to deploy troops and prepare supplies for the southern expedition.

Southern Xinjiang, Holy Maiden Temple.

A woman wearing a dark red Miao skirt and a silver hat sat at the head and said to the four old men sitting on the left and right sides below:

"Elders, there is no need to say more. This time, this Saint Girl must lead the expedition in person!"

The great elder said:

"The Han people are cunning and well-armed. Although the Saint has mastered the art of witchcraft, if the other side sends out tens of thousands of troops, the Saint will probably have difficulty dealing with it."

There is no emperor in Southern Xinjiang, only the Holy Maiden Palace, and the Holy Maidens of all generations are their supreme leaders.

Today's Saint Nan Keling is extremely talented. At only twenty years old, she has already mastered the golden silkworm Gu, the king of Gu insects.

But in an instant, dozens of lives were taken.

It can also remotely control the mind of the poisoned person.

However, the Central Plains army was large in number, and even if the Golden Silkworm Gu died of exhaustion, it could not kill tens of thousands of people.

Nan Keling said firmly:

"Only if I personally go out can we win this battle! Great Elder, after I leave, the Saint Maiden Hall will be temporarily handed over to you and the Third Elder to manage. The Second and Fourth Elders will accompany me to the battle."

"Don't worry, I won't fight them head-on. Even if I can't take over the Central Plains, I have the ability to protect myself!"

The four elders could only obey orders.

Southern Xinjiang was originally located deep in the mountains and lived in peace with the world.

Unfortunately, this year there were major disasters, first an earthquake and then a mudslide, causing countless deaths and injuries.

And now, many people have been infected with the plague for no reason.

The mountains where their ancestors have lived for thousands of years are now devastated and no longer suitable for human survival.

So after receiving news from the Emperor of Northern Yan, they decided to leave the mountains and live in the Central Plains.

But in history, any woman from southern Xinjiang who entered the Central Plains did not have a good ending.

It is a great honor for them to refine poisonous insects in southern Xinjiang, but in the Central Plains, they will be burned to death as aliens.

Therefore, only by conquering the Central Plains and becoming the rulers there can the Miao people survive.

Chaoxi Palace.

Pan Rongrong walked quickly into Gu Xi's office.

He picked up a bottle of mineral water on the coffee table and gulped down a few gulps, then patted his chest and said,

"Your Majesty, this is bad! I'm afraid Northern Yan is about to send troops!"

Gu Xi raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?"

Pan Rongrong said:

"I sneaked out of the posthouse quietly. There are four secret guards from Beiyan there now. They said they wanted to take me back to the court. They claimed that the Queen Mother of Beiyan was seriously ill and wanted to see me. But I have never even met the Queen Mother of Beiyan. How could she want to see me?"

"The secret guard also said that he would take me away on a fast horse and make sure we get to the north and the border of Northern Yan before the first day of next month."

"My guess is that they will send out their troops on the first day of next month. It's less than a week away!"

Gu Xi: “Oh.”

Pan Rongrong said anxiously:

"You only have one? Oh, I'm so anxious. There's less than a week left. Why don't you hurry up and deploy? Even if we rush to the north now, it will still take a week!"

Gu Xi hehe:

"It takes a week to ride a horse, but what if I go there by plane?"

Pan Rongrong's eyes lit up and she slapped her thigh.

"Oh, your majesty actually has a magical device like an airplane. It seems that I was worrying too much! What a pity."

"What do you regret?"

"It's a pity you're not a little brother, otherwise I would have to climb into your bed!"

Gu Xi was speechless.

Pan Rongrong continued:

"I don't dare go back to the inn now, for fear that they will take me away by force. Your Majesty, how about you temporarily let me live in the palace?"

"You wish!" Chu Zhao pushed the door open from outside.

As soon as he came back, he heard that this nasty woman was trying to seduce his A Xi. He couldn't help but listen to a few words at the door. This woman was so excessive that she wanted to live in the palace.

Pan Rongrong curled her lips.

"Your Majesty, do you run a vinegar factory? I am a woman. If I hide in the palace for a few days, what can I do to Your Majesty?"

Chu Zhao said with a dark face:

"Don't worry, I'll take care of those secret guards for you. Just stay in your inn with peace of mind!"
