Qi is suffering from external and internal troubles, and it has been tortured with thousands of holes, and it is difficult for Emperor Qi, who has average ability, to support the building to collapse.

Taking advantage of the fact that the scorching heat has receded and the cold winter has not yet arrived, such a good weather quickly wiped out the Qi country.

Emperor Xia hesitated for a moment, and said: "If we destroy the Qi State, we will directly face the Yuan Kingdom, and now that natural disasters are frequent, the Yuan Kingdom will go south to loot at any cost in order to survive." At that time, if the Qin army invades again, Great Xia will have to face the Qi army and the Yuan army, and these two armies are not comparable to the Zhao army and the Qi army. As soon as people get old, they want to walk steadily, but in the past few years, I would not have such cautious thoughts! ”

He is about to be obedient to the year, and his enthusiasm has slowly fallen silent, and he pursues stability in his work.

Xiao Rui understood His Majesty's concerns, but still suggested: "Father, the sons are not worried about facing the Yuan Kingdom at all!" Unlike the other five kingdoms, the Yuan State was a tribal system and was a state made up of countless tribes, with the Khan holding the largest tribe. They live by grazing on the grasslands, and they have no fixed residence, which is completely different from our living habits and thoughts. If the country and the people are safe and the rain is smooth, the tribes of the Yuan Kingdom will still respect the Khan, but now the situation in the Yuan Kingdom is not optimistic, and the Khan, as the leader, cannot effectively solve the disasters of the tribes, which is why the Yuan army continues to loot the Qi State! Therefore, after we destroy the Qi State, although we will face the Yuan State directly, as long as we pull the defensive line and find a way to restrain the cavalry of the Yuan State, we will not be afraid of him plundering, and it will be convenient to carry out our plan. Erchen is ready to vigorously fund the steppe tribes to help them rise, once other tribes can challenge the authority of the khan, then the Yuan kingdom will fall into a situation of struggle for power! Besides, even if we don't have a plan, will our Great Xia be afraid of the Yuan army? Even if you face both the Qin army and the Yuan army, Great Xia will be victorious! ”

Emperor Xia smiled, nodded and said, "I am really old, and the emperor is so ambitious, I am very pleased." The military marquis of Great Xia are also old, but there are new generals who are rising, Han Xin, Chen Qingzhi, Li Cunxiao, Yang Youji, and Guo Ziyi, all of whom are masters of leading troops to fight. In that case, then do as you wish, and finalize the matter tomorrow morning! ”

"Yes, Father!" Xiao Rui replied.

Today's Xiao Rui is indeed not afraid of the Qin State or the Yuan State, not because he is arrogant, but because he has strength.

Zhang Liang and Xiao He in the fourteen states of Anxi not only promoted the development of new crops, but also cultivated a strong army for Great Xia, nominally Chang Shenghou had 700,000 soldiers stationed in the fourteen states of Anxi, but once conscripted, the number of troops could reach more than one million. With Han Xin and Chen Qingzhi, plus Chang Shenghou, Zhenyuan Hou and others, if the Qin State dares to attack, then it will be better than the other!

In the Qi Kingdom, there is no need to say much about the strength of the champion Hou, and later Xiao Rui sent Li Cunxiao and Yang Youji over, which was even more powerful. Especially Li Cunxiao, there is the courage of ten thousand people, the champion Hou has tried with Li Cunxiao, and in the end the champion Hou was defeated, and this competition instantly pushed Li Cunxiao's ferocity to the extreme.

Champion Hou also intends to cultivate Li Cunxiao and Yang Youji, let them lead the troops to kill the traitors of Qi State, or have nothing to do to kill Qi State, in a year and a half, Li Cunxiao and Yang Youji won a hundred battles, and entered the territory of Qi State as if no one was in the land, Qi Jun heard that it was Li Cunxiao, and was scared to panic.

So with such a fierce general, will Xiao Rui be afraid of the Yuan army?

Of course, there was another important reason for Xiao Rui to make up his mind to destroy the Qi State, that is, Xiao Rui didn't want to wait! He wants to end this chaos as soon as possible, unify Shenzhou, and reshuffle the cards!

Leaving the Heart Cultivation Hall and returning to the East Palace, the two sleeping little ones had already woken up, babbling and screaming, and stretched out their hands for Xiao Rui to hug. Xiao Rui hugged one in one hand, and let the two little guys pat his cheeks, feeling very comfortable.

After entering the house, Zhuge Liuying and Li Ruoxue took the child and said with a smile: "Your Highness, you can't spoil them too much, otherwise you will be lawless." ”

Today's two daughters are not only young and beautiful, but also have some maturity between Gu Pan, which is the charm of having children.

Xiao Rui smiled: "I'm not spoiled, my father is spoiled!" Who dares to say that he, so these two little guys are destined to be demons. By the way, what about Ruoxi? ”

"Sister Ruoxi is resting in the room, she doesn't dare to move even if she is pregnant." Li Ruoxue said.

Xiao Rui smiled: "I'll go and take a look." ”

When I came to Zhang Ruoxi's room, I saw that Lu Pheasant, Lu Su and Ah Zhu were all there.

Zhang Ruoxi has been pregnant for three months, because it is the early stage of pregnancy, she must pay attention to her body, so she chooses bed rest. The three daughters of Lu Pheasant were discussing what clothes the baby wore when they were born, and when they saw Xiao Rui coming in, the girls stopped what they were doing.

Xiao Rui accompanied them to say this and chatted for a while before leaving.

Back in the study, Xiao Rui rubbed his eyebrows and asked Li Yuanfang beside him, "When will Fengxiao come back?" ”

Li Yuanfang said: "There are still more than ten days to go, and the affairs of the Wa Kingdom have been almost dealt with. ”

A year and a half ago, Xiao Rui sent all the people around him, leaving only Li Yuanfang and Jia Xu by his side, while Guo Jia went to the Wa Kingdom.

Speaking of the reason for going to Wakoku, it has something to do with Ashikaga Yumi!

Now Concubine Lan's Ashikaga Yumi has become Concubine Lan, His Majesty's favor for her has not changed at all, this woman is still the same as when she just entered the palace, although she has been shaded by the imperial concubine Lin Yuer a few times, but she has been noticed by a small eyeliner, so she was resolved by Xiao Rui in advance.

At the beginning, after Ashikaga Yumi entered the palace, Saburo Koizumi, the chief envoy of the Japanese Mission, was about to return to the Japanese Kingdom, and it happened that on the eve of leaving, they went to a famous restaurant in Kyoto to drink and met Guo Jia.

Guo Jia went up on a whim to toast a glass of wine, and showed that he was the Shao Zhan of the Zhan Mansion, so he drank with the three Japanese envoys. When the three Japanese envoys were drunk, Saburo Koizumi reminded Guo Jia with an unintentional sentence.

Koizumi Saburo said: "The Ashikaga general said that His Majesty the Emperor of Daxia will fall in love after seeing Miss Ashikaga, and the general is really like a god!" ”

It was this sentence that made Guo Jia realize that Ashikaga Yumi came to summer and was not as simple as the previous investigation.

So after he told Xiao Rui, after Xiao Rui summed it up, he asked Guo Jia to work hard and go to the Japanese country. Who would have thought that this would be a year and a half. Reading nests

"It's really hard work to be filial piety this time, but fortunately, I went and found unexpected results." Xiao Rui squinted his eyes, he never imagined that Huang Qilin had so many friends, a confidant in the sea, and even Ashikaga Nobita knew him!

Now that Xiao Rui knows the secret, he can carry out his plan, and he is ready to pull Huang Qilin out and completely eliminate this hidden danger.

Speaking of Huang Qilin, it is natural to talk about Duanwang Xiao Feng.

In the past year and a half, Xiao Feng has planned many times, trying to transfer troops abroad, but he was stopped by Xiao Rui, and now with Xiao Rui's power getting bigger and bigger, it is equivalent to supervising the country, and he will not let Xiao Feng leave Kyoto.

Let's stay in Kyoto honestly.

Today's Xiao Rui no longer takes Xiao Feng and Huang Qilin in his eyes. Throughout the years, conspiracy and conspiracy have not impacted Xiao Rui's position as the crown prince, and they have even become more and more stable. Now there is almost no suitable reason for His Majesty to depose him as crown prince.

But it is always uncomfortable to keep a thorn by his side, so this time Xiao Rui has to completely remove the hidden dangers around him.

After letting Li Yuanfang step back, Xiao Rui turned on the system.

"There are currently three Advent Chances, do you want to open the Arrival?"

"The current Advent value is 50100, and the Wish value is 23."

Two of the three advents were rewarded for the birth of sons and daughters, and the remaining one was recently accumulated.

In the past year and a half, Xiao Rui has carried out a total of three advents, the number of times is very small, and the system's help to Xiao Rui is getting smaller and smaller, it seems that Xiao Rui has stood at a certain height, and there are too few places to help.

What's even more a pity is that the first three arrivals were all item arrivals, and they were very chicken. did not bring hope to Xiao Rui to the Wenchen and fierce generals.

Yes, now Xiao Rui no longer needs a strategist, but a Wenchen! Good ministers like Xiao He, Song Ci, and Song Yingxing can help Xiao Rui deal with government affairs and take charge of it alone.

Emperor Xia's delegation of power to Xiao Rui is not only in handling government affairs, but also directly responsible for the selection or appointment of officials, Xiao Rui will not take this opportunity to install his own henchmen, his purpose is very fair, select officials who are capable, have faith, and are willing to fight for Great Xia.

The cabinet has already shuffled the cards, so naturally there is no need to move, among the six departments, the cabinet university Shilu expedition is also in charge of the Ministry of Rites, but the specific people who do things are the left and right waiters, and the left waiter is Cui Changwen, who is the person Xiao Rui won over in the early days, he is smart and has a view of the overall situation, and he is a high-minded person, and he will not be in the same stream as corrupt officials, so he doesn't have to worry about the Ministry of Rites.

The Ministry of Engineering is a university scholar Song Yingxing, and in the past two years, Song Yingxing's ability has also been proven, so naturally there is no need to worry.

The secretary of the Criminal Department is a scholar today, and Song Ci, the left waiter, is promoted, so there is no need to worry about the Criminal Department.

The secretary is a university scholar Meng Tianhai, this person is upright, the assessment and promotion of officials are very strict, and he is ruthless, and the original official has long been replaced.

In addition to the above four, only the household department and the military department are left.

The household department has a great responsibility to manage the world's money and grain. Yang Feiyuan has the ability, but the background of the big clan also limits his talents, he thinks too much, has too many concerns, and being demoted from the cabinet has hit him hard, he has been haggard a lot in the past two years, and his health is not as good as before.

Therefore, Xiao Rui hopes to descend to a Wenchen who can be in charge of the household department.

As for the military department...

I have to say that Huo Xingye, the secretary of the Ministry of War, has the ability and means, if he is not Xiao Feng's uncle, Xiao Rui is really willing to reuse him.

If he can serve the public wholeheartedly, Xiao Rui can also do it without avoiding revenge, but can he do it? Fortunately, Guo Ziyi served as the left attendant of the military department, although he had to listen to Huo Xingye's orders, Huo Xingye knew what Guo Ziyi's identity was, so it was a deterrent to him, so he didn't dare to mess around.

As for other ministries, they are basically in control.

"Start an Advent!" Xiao Rui has accumulated three opportunities, hoping that this time his wish will come true.

"The system is coming, please wait..."

"The system is coming, please wait..."

…

The familiar prompt sound sounded in Xiao Rui's mind, Xiao Rui turned off the system, and quietly waited for the arrival to be completed.
