When Lu Jinyi heard this, he could understand and said: "Well, I understand this, for example, this time, even if Chu State, Jin State and our Yu State are all subject countries of the Shangqing faction, but the Shangqing faction ordered the Chu State and the Jin State to submit to our Yu State, and they still disagreed." If it were me, I would be like this. Who is willing to give up the ancestral foundation for nothing, and the country and the society will give it away because of a word? ”

Unconsciously, Lu Jin already had a respectful attitude towards his sister, and no longer claimed to be me, but used the word "me".

Lu Yao nodded and said, "Yes." Now it's time for us to do it. Ling Yun and I are married. Ling Yun had just made a great contribution to the sect before, and the sect rewarded him with a piece of territory in the cultivation realm, although it was not very large, but it was enough to establish a small family. Moreover, the family is also close to some territory that can be expanded. When we were married, Ling Yun gave me this fief as a dowry. I used this fief as the fief of our Yu family. Currently, I am the patriarch. Xiao Yuan and Ling Yun, including your elder brother, your uncle Mei Chaofan, are all elders. I asked the master to come forward to help me negotiate with the sect. ”

"We can build that territory, well, the territory called Baiyu Lake into our own Xiuzhen clan land, and we can expand to the surrounding areas in the future. In the future, maybe it will become a cultivation family that has stood in the cultivation realm for thousands of years. So, we have to build our lands. ”

"Brother, let me tell you, in the past three years, not only has my cultivation improved. I also gained a foothold in the cultivation realm and made a lot of money. Started a lot of my own business. It's enough to feed a small family, and it's enough for us to expand our territory outward. ”

"But to expand outward, you can't just rely on money. The establishment of a Xiuzhen family mainly depends on the cultivation of one's own monks, the number of disciples, and the cultivation are all things that determine the strength of this Xiuzhen family. ”

"So, we really need our own children. In the last year, we sent the children of the Shangqing faction from the Yu Kingdom, and I have already recruited all of them as the children of our Yu State family. However, even this was only a dozen monks. In addition, some of the elders with foreign surnames I recruited are just a dozen more monks, how can such a small number of people be? ”

"Therefore, we urgently need to expand in the mortal world and defeat the surrounding countries, and then, we will also send monks to investigate everywhere and find those mortals who have spiritual root qualifications and send them to our White Fish Lake Clan Land to cultivate and cultivate. In this way, our family can be established. In this way, Yu Guo can be regarded as having a real backer in the cultivation realm. ”

"As long as the Yu Kingdom family in the cultivation realm is established, as long as the Yu country family is getting stronger and stronger, the Yu Kingdom in the mortal world is not well managed, and it is not afraid."

"So, the first thing we want to think about now is expansion. As for governance, it should also be considered, but it cannot be intensively cultivated, and it should be expanded first, and then intensively cultivated. ”

Lu Jin understood this truth, he nodded and said: "This is exactly the dream of our ancestors, I didn't expect that this dream will be fulfilled in the hands of our brothers and sisters."

Seeing his brother Lu Jin's such an ambitious appearance, Lu Yao was very satisfied. She asked: "In the past few years, I have seen that my brother has governed Yu Guo very well. You see that the crops on the roadside are growing very well, and the farmers who work in the fields, although they are also wearing patched clothes, are clean and clean, and there is no hunger on their faces, and although there are still many thatched houses in the villages passing by, there are many brick houses. It can be seen that the people's lives are much better. ”

Lu Jin was very happy when he mentioned this and said: "Yes, not only the lives of the farmers have improved a lot in recent years, but also the lives of the people in the capital have also improved a lot. Although I value agriculture, I also encourage business, so business in the capital is very prosperous. In addition, I am very strict with the management of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, although there is still corruption, but it is much better than before, without these moths, the people's lives are better. Naturally, the market has also prospered a lot. ”

Lu Yao nodded: "Brother, you have really worked hard in the past few years. ”

Lu Jin said with a smile: "My younger brothers and sisters have started from scratch in the Shangqing Sect, and they have all done a foundation. I'm still an older brother, how can I fall behind too much? ”

Lu Yao asked, "How is the situation in the imperial court now?" ”

Lu Jin said: "When you left, you instructed me not only to do a good job in the economy and enrich the national treasury, but also to do a good job in the army to prepare for foreign wars. Therefore, in the imperial court, I focus on cultivating generals. Fortunately, in the past few years, although we have not had major wars, we have had constant friction with Shuiyin, Chu, and Jin, and there are often battles on the border, which can be regarded as sharpening the army and generals. Some of the generals who were suppressed by the Ling family before came out one by one because of the fall of the Ling family, and I picked them up. Hmph, that's a good thing. ”

"As for the management of civil officials, this is also a blessing for the Ling family. Because didn't the fall of the Ling family free up a large area of space back then? I have used all my manpower, and I have also taken the opportunity to inspect some talents, invited them to come to the imperial court, and served in various positions, and I have become more and more familiar with them in recent years. Therefore, we in Yu can be so clear. ”

Lu Yao smiled and said, "It is estimated that the military expenses in the past few years have been paid with part of the liquidation of the Ling family's downfall, right?" It can be seen that the fall of the Ling family has really contributed to our Yu country. ”

Lu Jin laughed and said, "My sister is smart." Back then, some of the things liquidated by the Ling family were given to charity, but most of them were still kept, so I used them for military expenses. It's a good army. There is still no problem in fighting a war. However, if it were to be a big battle, it would be a bit unsatisfactory. ”

Lu Yao said: "There is no problem with this. As long as there is an ordinary army, we monks will do some assistance, and it is not possible to attack the big countries, but there is no problem with the surrounding small countries. ”

"By the way, didn't my brother say that he has been in friction with Chu and Jin in the past few years? These two countries were not our allies before? They are all from the Shangqing faction, and they have been friends for generations? ”

As soon as Lu Jin heard this, his face sank and he said, "Our three countries have been friends for generations. Our grandmother and great-grandmother were married to princesses from these two countries. My father also married both of our sisters to these two countries. Today, the queen of Chu is the eldest princess Lu Jia, and the son she gave birth to is already the crown prince of Chu. She has been married to Chu for many years, and the emperor of Chu is not in good health, and she has been controlling the government for the past few years, and correcting the changes for the emperor of Chu. ”

"It's in power. There is news that the emperor of Chu will not last for two years, if the emperor of Chu dies, I am afraid that her son will succeed to the throne and become the new emperor of Chu, she is the queen mother of Chu, and her power is even greater. She heard that her mother had died in the palace, and afterwards, we destroyed her foreign family, the Ling family. She hates us to death. ”

She didn't want to think about it, if it weren't for her mother, our mothers and concubines, would our father and emperor be able to die? She blindly complained about us, and even sent an envoy from the Chu State to redeem the descendants of the Ling family. I refused. Since then, she has been against our Yu State everywhere, and even often let the Chu State invade the borders of our Yu State. ”

Lu Yao smiled coldly. This big sister didn't bully her less in the palace back then. Although at that time, it was the third princess herself, but after she crossed over, the mother concubine Shunfei, as well as the nurses, maids, palace maids and the like around her, did not tell her less, the eldest princess, the second princess used to bully her. Her deity has always been a cowardly character, and it has something to do with being bullied by her sister.

Lu Jin continued: "There is also the second princess Lu Ying, when she married to the Jin Kingdom, the Jin Kingdom already had a queen, and because she was the princess of the Yu Kingdom, she had a noble status, so the Jin Kingdom still gave her a concubine to do." She also gave birth to a son, the third prince of the Jin Kingdom. She has been suppressed by the Empress of Jin Guo for many years, and she has never come out. However, later, because Lu Jia was in power in the Chu State, she co-opted her sister in the Jin State and sent people to Lu Ying, and Lu Ying had the opportunity to frame the Empress of the Jin State by means of guò several times. ”

"Empress Jin was finally defeated by Lu Ying and deposed by Emperor Jin. was going to help Lu Ying to be the queen, but he was boycotted by some ministers of the Jin State. to continue to be a concubine. However, this is a concubine without a queen, and she is naturally the highest status in the harem. The power in her hands has swelled a lot in recent years. She should also be a matter of the Ling family, and she should not deal with our Yu country. He often instigated the Emperor of Jin to send troops to harass our Yu State. ”

Lu Yao laughed angrily: "This is really a palace bloody drama." Lu Jia and Lu Ying are really good daughters born to Queen Ling, and their temperament is the same as that of Queen Ling. It's a shame that my father still loved them so much before. not only gave them a lot of dowries when they got married, but also supported them all the time. Now, with the support of Yu Guo for many years, they have gained a firm foothold in their husband's family, and they are really conscientious enough to turn back and deal with their mother's family. ”

Lu Jin obviously complained to the two sisters and said: "Their two sisters are unjust, and we are not kind. We're just going to take them first. In my opinion, we should attack Jin first. The country of gold is very close to us. Not to mention, Lu Ying's position in the Jin Kingdom is not as stable as Lu Jia. As soon as we attack them, Jin Guo will inevitably accuse Lu Ying, hmph, at that time, Lu Ying's life will not be easy. She is not a fuel-efficient lamp, she will definitely fight back, in this way, Jin Guo will definitely fall into infighting, and we can deal with Jin Guo more easily while Jin's internal turmoil is in turmoil. ”

Lu Yao admires his brother Lu Jin, who has great talent. Obviously, she is not good at strategy for such a siege of cities. Just leave it to the professionals, and the emperor's brother will do it well. (To be continued.) )
