After being demoted, my 300,000-strong army trampled the imperial city!

Looking at Liu Longyue's drunken eyes, Chen Futu couldn't help but feel annoyed.

If a woman asks a man if she will be forgiven if she lies to him in the future, there is a very high probability that she will lie to him in the future, or that she has already done something wrong and is asking in advance to give the man a heads-up.

Thinking of this, Chen Futu said with a forced smile, "My beloved concubine, you once attacked me in the capital, but I know that you did it for the sake of Beiwu. So in the future, as long as you have your own reasons, even if you deceive me, I will not blame you."

"really?"

Liu Longyue tilted her head.

Even though she was drunk, she felt that Chen Futu didn't mean what he said.

Chen Futu said in a serious tone, "We've known each other for quite some time now, so why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, you can tell me what you did and see if I get angry with you."

Their eyes met, and Liu Longyue's eyes softened even more, but unfortunately, her favorability rating still hadn't turned white.

Chen Futu thought to himself, "It really takes some effort to fool her."

So he patiently stayed with her, whispering sweet nothings to her, and even recited a couple of sentimental poems.

He didn't leave all night, giving Liu Longyue hangover soup and coaxing her to rest.

The next morning, Chen Futu groggily opened his eyes and found that he had fallen asleep in bed sometime during the night.

Although Liu Longyue was not by her side, her favorability rating had changed from red, which was very easy to drop, to white.

"What happened? Why was the mission completed so quickly?"

Chen Futu scratched his head, looking completely bewildered. His clothes hadn't been moved.

"Your Majesty, are you awake?"

Suddenly Zhang Liang called out from outside the door. Chen Futu quickly washed up and went out to see the Northern Wu army in the city setting off.

"Old Zhang, what's the plan? They're setting off already?"

Zhang Liang said, "Beiwu wants to move south and seize land as soon as possible. The princess said that you worked too hard last night, so she will not disturb you."

"Ah this..."

Chen Futu felt a little guilty. Could it be that he had really done something? No way, he didn't feel anything at all. Wouldn't that be a huge loss?

"Hey, are you awake?"

Qingyi also came over, her smile slightly playful.

Chen Futu said sullenly, "I only talked to her for a while last night, but I didn't do anything."

"Hehe, it's no use telling me that."

"Where are Zhensu and Jingsi?" Chen Futu looked around but didn't see anyone. Qingyi raised an eyebrow and said, "Zhensu has returned to camp, and An Jingsi has also led the Jingyue Army on patrol."

"I hope Zhensu isn't angry."

Chen Futu was still feeling guilty; he had slept very soundly last night and remembered nothing.

Half an hour later, the group left the city and saw Qin Liangyu leading the White Spear Soldiers and joining forces with An Jingsi.

There was nothing wrong with her expression, but she seemed slightly distant. She said, "Your Majesty, I have sent someone to the royal court to inform Lord Yu to take over the city."

Chen Futu looked at her suspiciously, secretly asking the system, "What's wrong with Zhensu? Is she jealous?"

[Because she personally witnessed the host spending the night alone in a room with Liu Longyue.]

"That's it?"

Although the territorial divisions of this world differ from the host's original world, the geographical location of Beiwu is strikingly similar to the place where the Jianzhou Jurchens once rose to power.

"No wonder."

Looking closely at the map, the location of Beiwu does indeed resemble that of the Ming Dynasty in the original world. It can be said that the territory of Daqian is almost equal to that of the Ming Dynasty in the original world. She has placed Beiwu in the territory of the Jurchen Tartars.

She had fought in hundreds of battles, both large and small, against rebel armies and Qing troops.

The current situation in the Great Qian Dynasty is basically the same as that of the Ming Dynasty, with internal strife, uprisings everywhere, and barbarians from beyond the Great Wall entering the Central Plains. No wonder she wasn't necessarily happy to take the prefectural city.

"Ahem, let's stay here for a few days and wait for the supplies to arrive."

Chen Futu avoided Qin Liangyu's gaze and did not intend to join up with the main force of the royal court. With Qin Liangyu and An Jingsi's two teams, they could advance straight to the Dongchuan Plain.

Dongchuan and Guanzhong are the granaries of Daqian. It is said that the Daqian Dragon Cavalry are currently guarding Dongchuan. They are a truly elite force. There are only a few months left before the summer harvest. If we can seize the grain before them, the remaining Daqian frontline troops in the north will collapse without a fight.

"Your Majesty, all the officials in the city have gathered and are awaiting your summons."

A soldier rushed in to report that the Northern Wu army was marching south. Although they did not harm the people in any way, the people were terrified. After all, those who were not of our race were bound to have different intentions. The royal decree must be issued as soon as possible to appease the people.

Chen Futu hesitated for a moment, then arranged for Qin Liangyu to lead troops to inspect the local area and monitor the security of the prefectural city, so as not to cause turmoil due to the war.

Qin Liangyu accepted the order and left.

On the way back to the prefectural city, Qingyi muttered to herself, "Your eldest son's family is angry, can't you tell?"

"I can tell she doesn't like Liu Longyue. I'm just curious how Liu Longyue managed to convince her to become a hostage and call me here?" Chen Futu asked curiously.

The woman in green replied sarcastically, "I don't know the details either, but Liu Longyue called Zhensu aside and said something, and Zhensu agreed. Perhaps Zhensu knows Liu Longyue's secret. You can find an opportunity to ask her."

"talk later."

Chen Futu was completely confused, mainly because Liu Longyue's favorability rating had risen too strangely. What exactly did she do last night? Why did she leave in such a hurry without even saying goodbye?

When the group arrived at the prefectural government office, they saw officials kneeling on the ground, shouting "Long live the King!" and many common people kneeling in the surrounding area.

Chen Futu asked the leading official, "Is there any grain left in the manor?"

"Your Majesty, the Northern Wu army has taken away all the money and grain from the treasury and the major clans, and there is really no grain left in the city."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the Northern Wu army came to our door demanding grain, and they even brandished their swords. We dared not refuse them."

The officials were talking all at once.

Zhang Liang sneered, "You've gotten off easy. We don't even need to check the accounts."

"Strategist, how could we dare to embezzle? We beg you to investigate thoroughly!"

They knelt on the ground, trembling.

The Northern Frontier King was so powerful that he was also known as a tyrant; their legs trembled as they spoke.

"Alright, get up, everyone. Immediately post notices to appease the people. Now that the prefecture is under the jurisdiction of the Northern Frontier, you should do your best to maintain order in the city."

"I will take your orders."

The officials stood up one by one, their faces pale, barely daring to breathe.

Next, Zhang Liang personally went to the government office. With him in charge, the city was able to stabilize within a few days.

As for Liu Longyue, let's let it go for now that that little vixen has robbed the city's grain without a word. But if she really follows the old path of those barbarians and goes into the Central Plains to massacre cities and exterminate tribes, or imitates the Western Regions Allied Army in abducting women for pleasure, Chen Futu will send a large army to crush her 100,000 iron cavalry and keep her in the Central Plains forever!
