The charming legitimate daughter is reborn, addicted to the abstinent prince's pampering

"Your Majesty is the king of a country, and it is your main responsibility to care about national affairs. The disputes in the harem and the love between your children should not be too involved in your majesty's mind. If because of me, there is a rift between your majesty and the concubines in the harem, That is my sin."

"If..." Yun Musheng wanted to continue to say something, but he forced himself to swallow the next words.

"What if it is?" Nalan Yin asked unwillingly.

He understood what Yun Musheng meant. She expected him to be not only a wise king, but also a benevolent king who could be considerate of the people's sentiments and care about the country and the people.

He knew what he should do as the king of a country, but the woman in front of him was different in his mind.

She is like a star in the sky, her radiance is impossible to ignore.

Yun Musheng sighed, his long breath filling the air.

She raised her clear eyes, looked directly at Nalan Yin, and said in a sincere tone:

"If Your Majesty over-indulges in the love between his children, it will undoubtedly be unforeseeable for the country's steady development. The late emperor of the Helian Kingdom caused the country to gradually decline because of his excessive love for Concubine Wen. Your Majesty, do you think so?"

Her voice was filled with helplessness and self-blame, but also with determination and hope.

"I don't want to be someone who brings trouble to your Majesty's mind and brings trouble to the country. I know in my heart that Your Majesty treats me well, but I have nothing but this face."

Nalan Yin listened quietly, and instead of feeling annoyed, he cast approving glances at her overall concept.

She is indeed Lin Aiqing's sister. Although she is not as smart as Lin Aiqing, she is still a woman who understands the general situation and understands the world.

Nalan Kingdom needs people with such unique vision and far-reaching thoughts.

The court needs loyal ministers like Lin Munan who can solve his problems.

In the backyard of the palace, a woman with a broad mind like Lin Suisui is even more needed to stabilize people's hearts.

She has a long-term vision and insight, and is destined not to disregard the development of the country for personal gain like the queen and concubines.

But precisely because she was different, she would not do anything to attract his attention like other women.

This made him have a different feeling for her among the many women.

The reason why he was attracted to her was all inadvertently.

Their meeting was a coincidence, and their relationship was his initiative.

He wants to get close to her, hoping that she can trust him wholeheartedly. It seems that it is still a very long process.

Full of hesitation and reluctance, Nalan Yin gently lowered the bed curtain and whispered:

"Suisui, I have already seen your body. Although I didn't mean to do it, I still want to be responsible for you to the end. Don't worry, by the time you enter the palace, things like yesterday will never happen again in the harem."

Yun Musheng frowned slightly, with obvious pleading and helplessness in his voice.

"Your Majesty, you really don't need to be responsible for me. I have never thought about getting married in my life."

Hearing these words, Nalan Yin couldn't help but feel a twitch in her heart.

Now she was like a frightened little wild cat, with all her hair standing on end, and she was on guard against everyone. She didn't dare to trust anyone except her brother.

He knew not to act too hastily, so he just smiled and said nothing more, fearing that any mistake in his words would frighten her even more.

"You have a good rest. I will come see you tomorrow." He chose to leave quietly, leaving her alone in the dormitory.

Yun Musheng was lying on the bed, listening intently to Qingdai's voice as she respectfully sent Nalan Yin off. A moment later, Qingdai's footsteps slowly approached.

"Miss, he's gone." Qingdai reported softly.

Yun Musheng slowly sat up, put on his middle coat, and leaned against the bed.

Her face was slightly pale, perhaps because of her illness, or perhaps because of the shame and anger of being peeked at by Nalan Yin just now.

"You go and do your business first and leave me alone."

Qingdai exited the dormitory in response, and the door closed gently, leaving Yun Musheng to meditate alone.

Her mind was in a mess, and her eyes were looking at one place in a daze.

The dormitory was so silent that the only sounds he could hear were his own heartbeat and breathing, as if the passage of time had stopped.

When the door was pushed open, the sound echoed throughout the room, seeming to vibrate the air.

Yun Musheng still sat stiffly without moving at all.

She thought it was Qingdai who came in, but when the tall figure stood beside the bed, she knew it was not Qingdai, but Chen Zui.

His appearance was like a cold wind blowing through the room, and the grievances in Yun Musheng's heart were like lit fireworks, burning instantly.

But this time, she felt not only aggrieved, but also filled with unspeakable resentment.

She sat there, not wanting to pay attention to him.

Chen Zui's hand gently lifted, and the bed curtains swung open like ripples. He stood in front of her, his eyes as deep as the sea.

Yun Mu Sheng looked pitiful, sitting alone on the bed wearing a white middle coat.

His eyes slowly swept over her body, and he said in a deep voice: "Just now..."

"According to your request, I am naked. Are you satisfied this time?" Yun Musheng's voice was obviously full of dissatisfaction and resentment.

She clutched the quilt tightly with her hands, like a shield to protect herself from the outside world. She looked at Chen Zui as if she wanted to see through his heart, trying to find traces of his care for her on his face.

"Chen Zui, do we have to be so unscrupulous in order to achieve our goals?"

This is the first time Yun Musheng has questioned Chen Zui.

In fact, she clearly knows that it is inevitable to use any means to achieve the goal.

What they want to do is a major event that benefits the country and the people for the Helian Kingdom, and the implementation of military tactics and strategies is very necessary.

However, this time she used her body to seduce Nalan Yin, but it was like a huge wave that crossed the last line of defense in her heart, completely swallowing up her self-esteem and self-feeling.

She felt that she had been defiled, and that deep sense of filth left her with nowhere to escape.

She is dirty and no longer matches Chen Zuoshui.

She felt as if she had fallen into a mire and could never be washed away.

She looked at him sadly, deep pain flashing in her eyes.

Chen Zui raised his hand, wanting to touch her head to express comfort, but Yun Musheng dodged him.

"Don't touch me." She turned away, her voice full of sadness.

Chen Zui's hand paused in mid-air awkwardly.

"You blame me?"

Yun Musheng pursed her lips, her heart pounding: "I have no right to blame you. I know what you are doing."

Chen Zui was silent for a moment, and finally had no choice but to retract his hand, with a look that was a little unbearable.

The two of them faced each other in silence, and the room fell into an awkward silence.

The solid silence was like a heavy stone tablet, pressing between the two of them, making the surrounding air extremely depressing.

Finally, Chen was the first to break the silence.

He smiled at Yun Musheng and said, "Have a good rest. I'll see you again in the evening."

With that said, he stood up from the bed reluctantly, but did not leave immediately, but looked at Yun Musheng steadily.

Yun Musheng was a little uneasy by his gaze.

Her cheeks were slightly flushed, showing shyness, nervousness, and feeling overwhelmed by his deep affection.

Her weak and tired body trembled slightly, and a thin layer of sweat slipped from her forehead. The traces of sweat beads glistened under the light.

Yun Musheng could barely suppress the emotions surging in her heart. She wanted to speak out to break the sudden tense atmosphere, but the words rolled in her throat and she couldn't find a suitable word.

She lowered her eyes, and Chen Zui's appearance was lightly obscured by her hair, but this did not stop her from sensing his presence.

Her sense of smell seemed to have become sharper, and the unique tea fragrance on Chen Zui was like the breeze blowing through the fresh green tea fields, fresh and peaceful.

The tea fragrance melted into his skin, penetrated into his clothes, and even seemed to blend with his own breath.

Her heartbeat echoed in the quiet space, like temple bells, thump, thump, rhythmic and powerful.

She could hear it clearly, and every heartbeat carried her expectation, expecting Chen to say something that would make her blush and make her heart beat, making her unable to help herself.

The flow of time seems to have slowed down, and every minute and every second is infinitely magnifying.

Perhaps her appearance was too alluring, or perhaps her desire for a response was too obvious.

She seemed to hear Chen Zui say to her: "Yun Musheng, do you like me?"

Yun Musheng thought she was hallucinating. Her eyes widened in disbelief, and her body became stiffer, not even daring to move.

The next moment, she felt the bed board move. Chen Zui sat down again, clasped the back of her head with one hand, pressed down, and pressed her head on his shoulder.

His lips were lightly pressed against her ear, and the heat spread like strands on her neck and ears. The tickling feeling made her shrink back.

The aroma of tea became stronger and stronger, wrapping her whole body in it, sweet and intoxicating.

"Yun Musheng."

He called her name softly, like the sound of a piano in ancient music, ethereal and intoxicating.

There was endless emotion hidden in that voice, which melted into her heart like honey, making her irresistible.

Chen Zui, intoxicated!

He was like a fragrant strong drink, which she was willing to indulge in, unable to extricate herself.

Her head was gently held by him, and her waist was held tightly by him, the two of them pressed together tightly.

He just called her name and didn't say anything else, but it made her feel an impulsive love that made her want to devour her.

The person she loved so much suddenly hugged her tightly, and her throbbing heart could no longer be suppressed.

Her hands trembled on Chen Zui's back, and when her heart felt his slender but powerful waist, her love seemed to be extremely satisfied.

This is an indescribable happiness, a long-awaited dream that has finally become a reality at this moment.

Chen Zui, I suddenly don’t want to enter the palace.

I don’t want Cheng Huan to be on Nalan Yin’s bed, I just want to be with you.

This is the cry deep in her heart.

She didn't dare to say such words because the invisible mountain of the country was weighing on her heart.

On one side is the personal relationship between children and on the other side is the national justice.

She could only give up her feelings to achieve the prosperity of Helian Kingdom.

She was trapped in pain, like a boat teetering in a storm. Her endless depression and bitterness could not find an outlet to vent.

Tears, like broken pearls, fell silently, moistening Chen Zui's clothes.

The hot temperature made Chen Zui feel soft for a moment, but it was only for a moment.

He knows his principles and purpose.

In order to achieve his goal, he is willing to do whatever it takes, even abandoning his own dignity and moral bottom line.

You can be dishonest, you can be mean, you can even be shameless.

Use everything you can, not only for Yun Musheng, but also for himself.

He clearly knew that Yun Musheng admired her, but he just took advantage of her feelings. Just a small hug made her uneasy.

He understood that this was her weakness and his weapon.

Why is it so simple? It's so simple that he can't bear it.

Chen Zui cursed himself in his heart for being despicable.

But he did not stop the movements of his hands, and put his body weight on Yun Musheng, pressing her slender body on the bed.

Yun Musheng's face turned red, and his voice almost turned into a puddle of water.

"Chen Zui..."

Chen Zui was supported above her head, his eyes locked with hers for a moment, those seductive fox eyes that could suck people in.

Yun Musheng bravely raised her hand to trace his features.

"Why are you so beautiful?"

This face is like the bright moon in the sky, so cold and out of reach, but now it is under her hands, it feels smooth to the touch, and she can't put it down.

A sly smile appeared on Chen Zui's lips: "No matter how good-looking she is, she is still not as good as you."

After finishing his words, he leaned down and kissed Yun Musheng's lips gently in her surprised eyes.

The soft, warm touch is like the first snowflake touched, and like the first blooming petals, it is intoxicating.

, the two people exchanged each other's breath, this strange feeling made people unable to help but sink in.

Under Chen Zui's initiative, Yun Musheng retreated steadily and fell completely into this tenderness.

His kiss only touched the surface and did not explore deeply.

He then stood up and apologized softly:

"Sorry, I couldn't control it for a moment. Did it scare you?"

Yun Musheng stayed there, speechless for a long time.

The touch on the lips, the warm breath, and the sudden surprise and surprise made her unable to organize her thoughts for a moment.

She was not frightened. Even at that moment, she hoped that Chen Zui could do more to her, but he was too gentlemanly and just kissed her and nothing else.

Yun Musheng's heart seemed to be eroded by the cold wind, leaving a void that could not be filled.

When Chen Zui was about to leave, she suddenly interrupted: "Why don't you go with the flow and let me enter the palace? Nalan Yin has been sincerely interested in me, and just now he said he would be responsible for me."

Chen Zui turned around and looked at her. His eyes were as dark as the night and he couldn't see the bottom. His fingers fell on her face, scrubbing her face.

"Suddenly I feel reluctant to leave you." His voice was low, hoarse, and bewitching.

"Can you stay with me longer?"

His words succeeded in making Yun Musheng's heart sink deeper and deeper. At this moment, she was even willing to die for Chen Zui.

It turned out that she was not the only one who suffered. Chen Zui suffered far more than she did.

Yun Musheng suddenly felt that she was too ignorant, and secretly swore that no matter what decision Chen finally made, she would cooperate unconditionally, and he would not harm her.

Chen Zui pinched Yun Musheng's face and reluctantly let go.

"You are still sick, so take a good rest first, otherwise I will worry."

"Ah."

Yun Musheng watched Chen Zui leave before closing his eyes.

Chen Zui walked out of Yun Musheng's yard, stood in the cold wind, and smiled to himself.

It would be false to say that what he just said was not sincere, but his sincerity only carries one point of weight.

His main purpose was not simply to keep Yun Musheng, but to let Nalan Yin experience the pain that he never wanted.

The easier it is to get, the less it will be cherished.

Nalan Yin needs him. As long as he is Nalan Kingdom's adviser, Nalan Yin will respect his opinions and will never force Yun Musheng into the palace.

Nalan Yin will use his sincerity to influence their brothers and sisters.

This will inevitably distract him. He cannot focus entirely on important court affairs, and mistakes will occur. In this way, it will be much easier for him to succeed in what he wants to do.

More importantly, in order to allow the people he likes to set foot in the harem, Nalan Yin will definitely sort out the harem and eliminate those who stand in the way.

However, the concubines in this harem all have intricate power networks behind them.

Therefore, Nalan Yin's move will inevitably touch these forces and cause a lot of dissatisfaction among the ministers in the DPRK and China.

He knew all about the situation and was ready to witness it all.

The above are the deep-seated motives for his beauty trick on Yun Musheng.

Although he felt sorry for Yun Musheng, he felt sorry for the country behind him - Helian Kingdom.

As Chen most carefully planned, Nalan Yin valued and respected his opinion.

He approached Chen Zui more than once, hoping to marry Yun Musheng.

The reasons for rejection given by Chen Zui are:

"Your Majesty, I can see that you have feelings for your sister-in-law, but it is precisely because of this that I cannot allow my sister to enter the palace."

Nalan Yin was puzzled: "Why?"

Chen Zui explained: "Food and clothing leads to lust, while hunger and cold arouse the desire to steal. Today, the Nalan Kingdom is prospering under your Majesty's governance. It is the time to go uphill. Your Majesty should focus all his energy on governing the country, not on the love between his children." Sir, if my sister enters the palace, it will definitely take away some of His Majesty’s energy, which is not a good sign for Nalan.”

"Furthermore, the countries around Nalan are not in peace. They are always ready to make trouble, especially Mobei. Every winter due to lack of food, grass and winter clothes, they invade the Helian Kingdom. Last year, they were defeated by Helian. This year, they are likely to change their strategy and invade our Nalan Kingdom. Lan, we have to guard against it."

"There is also the small country of Lingjiang, which must be guarded against. Lingjiang has established diplomatic relations with Helian Kingdom and Xuanyuan Kingdom. It seems that it has also established diplomatic relations with Nalan, but after all, it has been disliked in the past and cannot be completely trusted."

"In such a situation where we are surrounded by enemies, how can I, as a counselor, allow my sister to enter the palace?"

Nalan Yin knew that everything he said was reasonable and was all for the future of Nalan Country, so he couldn't continue to force it.

The important ministers in the court learned about Chen's far-sighted strategic vision and admired him even more. As a result, no one said that Yun Musheng was a troublemaker to the emperor.

Nalan Yin still occasionally goes to Lin Mansion to visit Yun Musheng.

Yun Musheng's every smile and every frown were like drizzle and breeze, stirring up waves in his heart and firmly grasping Nalan Yin's heart.

Nalan Yin secretly vowed to make some achievements, and while strengthening the Nalan Kingdom, he also wanted to get Yun Musheng.

In the next two years, Nalan Yin devoted himself wholeheartedly to state affairs.

He never touched the concubines in the harem again. The more noisy those women were, the more disgusted he became. Even the courtiers who always coveted his sexual intercourse were left aside.

The only person Nalan Yin trusted the most was Chen Zui. Chen Zui also tried to persuade him, but not only did it not have any effect, on the contrary, he would get angry.

"Lin Aiqing, if you ask me to favor other women, don't you think about your own sister?"

"I can feel that Suisui is affectionate for me. If I really favor other women, Suisui will definitely feel that my promise to her is just empty words."

"Your Majesty, why are you bothering? There are thousands of women in the world, and my sister is just the most ordinary one."

"In your eyes, she is ordinary, but in my eyes, she is extremely precious and unique."

No matter how Chen Zui tried to persuade him, nothing made sense, so Chen Zui sighed.

"If your Majesty really wants to enter the palace, I will not stop you, but your Majesty must agree to one condition."

Seeing Chen Zui's attitude softening, Nalan Yin's face immediately burst into joy, and he hurriedly asked:

"What conditions? For Suisui, no matter what the request is, I will agree to it."

Chen Zi smiled and said: "Isn't your Majesty afraid that I will make excessive demands?"

Nalan Yin was very confident and said to me: "Anyone will take the opportunity to make excessive demands, but I believe that you, who are dedicated to serving the country, will not."

Chen Zui smiled secretly in his heart. Since you are so confident in your words, he will feel relieved.

"If Your Majesty wants to get Suisui, he must take back Mobei as a betrothal gift. With the current strength of the Nalan Kingdom, it will take about two years to regain Mobei. The day you regain Mobei, your Majesty will include Suisui into the harem. At that time, what do you think, Your Majesty?"

After hearing this, Nalan Yin couldn't help but feel angry and funny.

"It seems that I underestimate you. This condition really makes me love and hate you at the same time. Okay, I agree to your request. Suisui is worth waiting for me for two years."

Chen Zui's plan went one step further smoothly.

The battle between Nalan Kingdom and Mobei lasted for two years. Regardless of whether the final victory will come to Nalan Kingdom, this long war has greatly reduced the national strength of Nalan Kingdom.

Sun Tzu wrote in "The Art of War": Soldiers are a major event for the country, the place of life and death, and the path to survival. They must be observed.

This is a profound interpretation of military operations. It tells us that military affairs are a major national event and are related to the life and death of the people. Decisions cannot be made easily and must be carefully considered.

If a country continues to fight for years, no matter how powerful it is, its national power will be exhausted one day.

Just like a towering tree, although it is tough and indestructible, if you keep cutting it down, it will eventually fall down one day.

The reason why Nalan Yin was eager to annex Mobei was precisely because of Chen Zui's speech at the Prime Minister's Mansion.

With exquisite words, he analyzed the surrounding countries incisively and vividly, breaking them apart and smashing them into pieces. He clearly described to Nalanyin the benefits of annexing Mobei and the infeasibility of fighting against other countries.

This is equivalent to giving Nalan Yin a hint that only by annexing Mobei can Nalan Kingdom be able to compete with other countries and realize its ambition to unify the world.

All of Chen Zui's analysis and strategies are based on the powerful Nalan Kingdom. It is difficult for anyone to discover his ulterior motives unless there is someone smarter than Chen Zui in the court. Unfortunately, there is no such person in Nalan Kingdom. Destined to fall into Chen Zui's trap.

"The Art of War" pursues a profound state of "no war", rather than blindly advocating the main battle.

If we can fully practice Sun Tzu's teachings, we can achieve the supreme state of "subduing the enemy without fighting".

Chen Zui has been trying his best to instigate the confrontation between Nalan Kingdom and Mobei, in order to buy Helian Kingdom valuable time to grow stronger.

Once Helian Kingdom accumulates enough advantages, he can easily bring Mobei under his command, and Nalan Kingdom will lose everything.

With the powerful team in Mobei, the Helian Kingdom can take down the Nalan Kingdom in one fell swoop.

These hidden motives are still unknown, even to the courtiers of the Helian Kingdom.

This is to win without bloodshed, to win without fighting, to win without fighting.

Soldiers who, deception also.

Sun Tzu talks about twelve tricks in this chapter. The starting point of most tricks is to cause the other party to make wrong judgments and induce the other party to make mistakes.

Chen most wanted to overthrow the Nalan Kingdom. First, he had to gain Nalan Yin's trust. Second, he had to use his eloquent eloquence to make Nalan Yin misjudge the situation in neighboring countries.

Chen Zui's strategy can be regarded as a conspiracy within a conspiracy.

His conspiracy was not secretive, but was made public in an impeccable way.

Not only did he want Nalan Yin to be trapped in it, but he also had to lead all the courtiers of Nalan Kingdom into a confusing situation that they could not see clearly.

As you can imagine, this task was very difficult, but he used his amazing intelligence and strategy to achieve his goal perfectly.

He cleverly took advantage of Nalan Yin's ambition and desire, and successfully made him fall into a trap in a seemingly direct but imperceptible way.

Just like a painter splashing ink on the canvas, Chen Zui's strategy is given vivid colors by his brushstrokes and becomes lifelike.

He successfully persuaded Nalan Yin to attack Mobei. None of the courtiers objected, but all raised their hands in approval. This shows that Chen Zui's strategy is impeccable and no one can find fault with it.

And the beauty trap he used was even more exquisite.

Don't force the beauty to be in front of Nalan Yin, stimulate Nalan Yin's emotions with the senses of being far away and then close.

Nalan Yin fell into a beauty trap, but she didn't realize it. No one in the court jumped out to criticize Chen Zui and Yun Musheng. The reason was that Chen Zui had been urging Nalan Yin for the sustainable development of Nalan country. Lan Yin governed the country, brought peace to the family, and brought peace to the world, instead of indulging in love affairs between men and women.

His methods are so clever that people who have been tricked still applaud him.

Fighting is like playing chess. If you make one wrong move, you will lose the whole game.

The Nalan Kingdom decided to send troops to Mobei. This move was undoubtedly a serious strategic mistake.

If Chen Zui's conspiracy is not discovered in time, the outcome of Nalan Kingdom will be a foregone conclusion.

In the next two years or so, Chen Zuo will be busy every day.

In the eyes of others, he was busy assisting the king.

Busy reforming the system to promote agricultural development.

Busy planning for the bright future of Nalan Kingdom.

Busy calculating the surrounding countries.

He was busy establishing friendly diplomatic relations with Xuanyuan State by making distant and close attacks.

However, the busyness he showed was just to let Nalan Yin and the officials see that he was dedicated to his duties and diligent in state affairs. It was just what he wanted Nalan Yin and the officials to see.

On the surface, the results are very good, but in fact, these measures are just scratching the surface, have little effect, and play a negligible role.

He was able to carry out his plan without any worries, thanks to his trust in He Lianhuan and Gu Wangshu.

He believed that as long as the two of them heard about Nalan Kingdom's series of actions, they would be able to guess that he had successfully penetrated into Nalan Kingdom.

Chen Zui's guess was correct. Ever since Nalan Kingdom attacked Mobei, He Lianhuan and Gu Wangshu realized that Chen Zui had been put into great use by Nalan Yin.

Because Chen Zui once said that he would take advantage of the lack of advisers like Shen Shiyan in Nalan to go to Nalan as an adviser, and he did it.

The two of them were not idle in Helian Kingdom.

Because they knew that the battle between Nalan and Mobei would not be easy.

In order to relax Nalan Yin's vigilance, they must cleverly conceal the true war situation between the two countries.

There is a saying that reports good news but not bad news. Only by making Nalan Yin mistakenly believe that the war situation is great will he not prematurely withdraw his troops and fall into the illusion that Nalan Kingdom easily captured Mobei.

The person leading the troops this time was Fu Xingguo.

It is absolutely impossible for Fu Xingguo to conceal military information, and if he finds that Mobei is more difficult to deal with than Helianguo, he will definitely ask Nalan Yin to issue an order to withdraw his troops.

Therefore, only by intercepting the message Fu Xingguo sent to Nalan Kingdom can Nalan Yin be kept in the dark.

He Lianhuan and Gu Wangshu are also quite impressive.

After the two discussed it, they immediately sent out a team of black-clad secret guards to lurk at the border between Nalan Kingdom and Mobei. As long as they found any correspondence, they would intercept it without anyone noticing.

As expected, the letter clearly explained the difficulty of Fu Xingguo leading an army of [-] to pursue the Mobei Iron Cavalry on the Mobei Grassland.

Nalan's army is not as strong as the Mobei people, and Nalan's horses cannot run faster than Mobei's horses. They are not as good as others in everything, how can they win?

Before both sides could prepare their troops, the Mobei Iron Cavalry had already galloped away like the wind and disappeared over the vast land, leaving only a piece of dust unsettled.

When the tired divisions of the Nalan Army stopped to rest, set up camp, and prepare to take a short rest, the Mobei Iron Cavalry suddenly appeared in front of them like a ghost, catching them off guard.

And when the Nalan army fired back, the Mobei people swept across the wilderness like a gust of wind, galloping on horseback, and disappeared in the vast wilderness in an instant.

This battle with the Mobei people made Fu Xingguo feel more difficult than ever. It was the most difficult battle in decades.

He wrote a letter and truthfully reported the battle situation to Nalan Yin, hoping to recall Nalan Yin's army for good strategies.

Unexpectedly, his letter was like a stone dropped into the deep sea, without arousing any response.

Without the emperor's order, he could not withdraw his troops without authorization and could only continue to struggle with Mobei involuntarily.

This entanglement lasted two endless years.

The [-] soldiers of the Nalan Army gradually withered away in the battle, almost reaching the edge of total annihilation.

Fu Xingguo suddenly looked ten years older, and his whole body collapsed in constant fear.

Of course, Mobei's losses were also huge.

The endless wars in the past two years have continuously reduced the scope of activities of the Mobei nomads.

The people of Mobei rely on grasslands for their livelihood, and the reduction of their activity range means that people's lives have been affected on a large scale.

The country of Daliang, which borders Mobei in the east, has been carved up by Helian, Dongling, Zhao and Dashuo. The country of Daliang no longer exists.

King Mobei also began to panic.

He knew that after the fall of Daliang, the next target of Helian, Dongling, Zhao and Dashuo was likely to be Mobei, and Mobei was being attacked by the Nalan Kingdom, so how could the other four countries sit still.

He thought about it and thought of Zhao Bingcheng, the envoy who came to negotiate peace with Mobei that year.

This man is very business-savvy. In the past two years, he has led a group of businessmen to do business on the border between Helian and Mobei, which can be regarded as providing the basic needs of the people of Mobei who are not wealthy.

He might as well relax economic exchanges between the two countries, so that the people of Mobei who were invaded by the Nalan Army can also improve their lives through the economy.

He quickly put this decision into practice.

All this was as expected by Zhao Bingcheng.

He was waiting for this moment to come. This was exactly what he had planned for a long time.

When he left Yong'an, the capital of the Helian Kingdom, the eldest daughter of General Gu secretly slipped him a note, which meant that he hoped that he could use the economy to contain Mobei until Mobei was completely dependent on the financial assistance of the Helian Kingdom. , it was time to close the net and capture Mobei in one fell swoop.

The border between Helian and Mobei was bustling with activity, and a noisy and prosperous scene came into view.

It's like a lively market, full of vivid colors and unique atmosphere.

This is not only a distribution center for materials that Mobei people rely on for survival, but also a prosperous commercial hub that provides almost all the necessities for Mobei people's lives.

In this lively border, you can see all kinds of goods being traded, and the variety is dazzling.

The Mobei people who were cornered by the Nalan Army gradually gathered here and settled down.

Want to taste delicious rice, noodles, grains and oils?All you need to do is purchase it from Helian Country.

Want to wear gorgeous silk and satin?You just need to find a cloth merchant who can meet your needs.

In this prosperous border, Mobei people are no longer troubled by poverty and deprivation.

They exchanged their cattle, horses, sheep and other livestock for various daily necessities and precious materials.

This barter method of trading allowed them to live a better life.

In just two years, the people of Mobei have adapted to such a stable life.

Let me ask, if you can enjoy the peace and quiet of the years, who would be willing to run around for life and appreciate the ups and downs of life?

Social progress is actually driven to a large extent by people's inertia.

Just like people don't want to wash clothes by hand, so washing machines came into being; they don't want to bother with cooking, so takeout has become a must-have choice for modern people; they don't even want to sweep the floor, so sweeping robots were born.

People in Mobei are also human beings. They insist on finding suffering for themselves when they are full. After all, the people who are proud of suffering are only a minority. The vast majority of people can lie down without sitting, and can sit without standing.

With his outstanding talents and resources, Zhao Chengcheng created a comfortable and comfortable material life for them, allowing them to enjoy a stable life.

On this day, Zhao Chengcheng took Li Ye and Zifeng for a walk in the bustling market.

All the stall owners here are familiar with the three of them, and even the people who come to the market from all over Mobei are also quite familiar with these three people.

When he saw Zhao Chengcheng, he would greet him cheerfully.

Zhao Bingcheng would nod in response. His elegant temperament remained the same, like a well-educated teacher.

In this rough frontier land, his elegant demeanor is particularly unique.

The eyes of young girls and daughters-in-law would light up when they saw him. The folk customs in Mobei were fierce, and some bold women would actively block Zhao Bingcheng's path to express their love for him.

The first time he encountered this situation, Zhao Bingcheng was quite embarrassed, but as it happened more times later, he was able to deal with it calmly.

Today, as expected, another tall and long-legged Mobei girl blocked the way for the three of them.

Zhao Bingcheng had a smile on his face and had already thought about how to reject the other party.

But the girl said to Li Ye next to Zhao Bingcheng:

"Master Li Ye, my name is Zhuoma, and I have fallen in love with you. If you marry me, I can bring you a thousand cows, ten thousand sheep, and a horse as a dowry."

Such a straightforward way of confessing made Li Ye's eyelids twitch.

The girl standing in front of him had a slightly tanned skin due to exposure to wind and sun all year round, and the plateau red on her cheeks added a bit of unpolished wildness.It is far from the gentle and reserved beauty of the women from Helian Kingdom.

He was about to politely refuse, but he heard Dolma say in a firm tone:

"As long as I am the eldest wife, I don't mind if you have three wives and four concubines. I am very sincere. Do you agree?"

Her confident demeanor didn't look like she was speaking casually, but rather as if she was prepared.

Li Ye saw that she was determined to win, and she didn't look like someone who wanted to make a fortune.

Looking at Zhao Bingcheng next to him, he pursed his lips and smiled softly.

And Zifeng, the guy, was enjoying the show very much.

No one is helping him and still laughing at him?

In the past two years of getting along day and night, he had finally figured out the natures of Zhao Bingcheng and Zifeng.

Don't they just care about things that have nothing to do with themselves?Then he would drag them in.

An unspeakable complex emotion flashed across Li Ye's face. He took a deep breath and looked at Zhuoma firmly.

"Miss Zhuoma, I will not marry you."

"Why? Did I bring not enough dowry? Or do you dislike our Mobei girl?"

"neither."

"Why is that? If you don't tell me why, I won't let it go."

The people around them, whether they were traders doing business or people coming to the market, were all attracted by their conversation. They stopped what they were doing and looked at them one after another.

Some even booed.

"Dolma is famously capable in our tribe. Young man, you won't suffer at all by marrying her."

"Isn't that right? Dolma is the most beautiful girl in our tribe."

"Hurry up and promise her, hurry up and promise her."

Li Ye sighed: "It's not that I don't want to promise her, it's that I can't promise her. Miss Zhuoma is very good, but are you sure you can integrate into my family?"

As he said that, he held Zhao Bingcheng with one hand and Zifeng with the other.

"Our family of three is living a very good life and is very happy. If Miss Zhuoma joins us, it seems inappropriate for you as a woman."

In one sentence, everyone present was stunned.
