Tuoba Yan smiled embarrassedly, "There is little land and many people over there, and most of them are still uncivilized, so it won't be difficult to fight them."

"What brings you back to see me this time?"

Tuoba Yan scratched his head and said, "I don't know what's on the other side of the sea, so I don't want to continue fighting and want to rest and recuperate.

But, I have been busy fighting wars for so many years and I don’t know how to develop... "

Shen Lishu understood, "So, you want me to help you?"

Tuoba Yan took two steps forward, "Mom, I am your godson, you must help me."

"Come on, when did I admit it?"

Shen Lishu was shocked by his shamelessness. He was just like that, as he said, "strike the snake while it is still under attack."

This guy is very smart.

Tuoba Yan chuckled, "I've been calling you mom for so long, I thought you'd already agreed."

How could a person who could be resurrected after being dead not hold his thighs tightly?

Tuoba Yan regretted it so much, blaming himself for speaking too loudly and not holding on to her thighs earlier.

He is just an ordinary person, and when he encounters something extraordinary, he can only give in.

Shen Lishu waved his hand, "I can help you, but brothers should be clear about accounts. What benefits do you plan to give me?"

"That's easy! Tuoba Yan had already prepared, "I will not come to see mother empty-handed this time. The gift for you is outside. I will ask someone to bring it in."

After a while, several guards came in carrying a dozen boxes.

Tuoba Yan opened them one by one, and the whole hall suddenly sparkled.

Gold, and all kinds of gems that have never been seen before.

Tuoba Yan pointed to one of the boxes and said, "This is ivory. It was confiscated from one of the tribes. They raise elephants there and love all kinds of ivory products."

Shen Lishu looked over and saw that the entire box was filled with ivory, about ten pieces in total. Each one was of top quality, more than one meter long, and as white as jade.

The box next to it is filled with ivory products, ranging from small ivory combs to various large and exquisite ornaments.

In addition, there are three boxes of gold and five boxes of various agates, gemstones, and jade.

It is no exaggeration to say that these things are priceless.

"Are these for me or Qingli?"

Tuoba Yan immediately bowed and smiled, "Of course it's to honor my mother. If you ask Qing Li for help, I will naturally give you something in exchange."

Shen Lishu nodded secretly. This guy was quite cunning. If he didn't ask, there would probably be no other batch of things.

"I will keep your matter in mind. I need to discuss this matter with the court officials. You might as well stay in the palace and rest for the time being."

"I can't ask for it."

Tuoba Yan also understood that this matter was not that simple, so he followed the palace servants and went downstairs to rest.

Shen Lishu looked at her from behind and sighed, "War is really a way to make money."

The desire to raid the bandit's den was eager.

It's a pity that she is now the Queen of Qingli who appears in the public eye, and she cannot do such a cheap thing.

In fact, earlier, Shen Xingshu had spread the news that the Qingli King's biggest hobby was to take a few people to fight bandits all over the mountains and engage in the practice of robbing bandits of their own foes.

In addition, Qingli has strict public security and the people are relatively wealthy, so there are really few bandit dens in Qingli.

Have someone carry the box down.

Shen Lishu immediately convened a meeting of ministers headed by Shen Xingshu to discuss how to help the Turks.

We must help, but how to help and how much to help are all matters of knowledge.

Everything needs to be discussed.

Many hands make light work. Shen Lishu is unmatched in the country in terms of martial arts, but he is not very good at political tactics. He has learned a lot in the past few months.

But Shen Xingshu is different from those ministers. He has been taught since childhood and has received the best resources to develop his own faction. He is really a master in politics.

Qingli has Shen Xingshu, which is really hot!

The discussion lasted until the evening, and only half of it was agreed upon. The other half needed to be investigated on the spot and then arranged according to the actual situation.

The next morning, Tuoba Yan was called to discuss the matter again.

Three days later, the expedition team was ready to set off, led by Shen Feng, who brought three thousand guards and more than one hundred talents from various fields onto a warship.

He is also someone who can drive a battleship.

In fact, Shen Lishu really wanted to go and see in person the place that had intrigued her for so long, but she was helpless as she was now in a high position with heavy responsibilities, and she couldn't get away for too long.

What's more, with so many people leaving the court at once, the affairs of various departments and places suddenly became busy and tense.

The already busy staff are now stretched to their limits and overwhelmed.

Faced with such a situation, Shen Lishu knew that he had to stay and stick to his post to handle the official duties that had suddenly increased due to the lack of staff.

Each of these mountains of work is related to the stability and development of the country and does not allow for any negligence or slackness.

So despite having a strong yearning in his heart, Shen Lishu could only bury this impulse deep in his heart for the time being and devote himself wholeheartedly to the heavy official duties at hand.

Shen Lishu is busy with government affairs every day and also has to keep an eye on training, so the days pass quickly.

Half a month later, she received news from the inspection team.

It turns out that although the Turkic land is vast and sparsely populated, it has rich mineral resources that have not yet been developed, as well as various beautiful gems and jade mines.

There are also precious lands suitable for human habitation. Shen Feng knows exactly what kind of soil is suitable for growing what.

The list was quickly made.

Shen Lishu sent another message.

What she values ​​most is the seaside, the undeveloped ocean has extremely rich marine resources.

She knew very well that there must be humans on the other side of the sea, but she didn't know what the specific situation was, so she needed to prepare early.

Shipbuilding and training the navy are Tuoba Yan’s next top priorities.

Tuoba Yan was very happy when he heard the news. He knew that as long as Shen Lishu took action, the Turks would be able to change their appearance.

Maybe... I can take a spaceship to the other side of the sea to take a look?

Shen Lishu temporarily suppressed this idea and decided to get rid of Chen Xin first and then talk about other things after achieving great unification.

Ever since that tragic scam, Chen Xin has fallen into a state of extreme confusion and chaos.

The once unwavering faith in Taoism has now become shaky and vulnerable. She feels as if she has lost her direction and motivation to move forward, and the faith and determination accumulated through her hard practice in the past have collapsed in an instant.

Therefore, Chen Xin made a surprising decision - to give up cultivation! This decision shocked everyone, but at this time she could no longer care about so much.

Her heart was filled with anger and hatred, and she wanted to release this anger completely.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Xin assembled his huge army without hesitation and issued an order for a full-scale attack on Qingli.

And this army is not composed of ordinary soldiers. Most of them are powerful puppets that she has secretly trained with many years of hard work.

These puppets have their own characteristics. Some are extremely powerful and can easily destroy city walls; some are agile and can move between battlefields like ghosts; others are good at spell attacks and can inflict fatal blows on enemies from a long distance.

Following Chen Xin's order, these puppets that had been suppressed for a long time rushed towards Qing Li like a surging tide.

With the anger and unwillingness of the dust heart, they launched a fierce attack on the opponent with overwhelming force...

That’s right, she already knew who possessed the authority of Heaven.

All the elite troops headed northwards, heading straight for Qingli territory, and the Xiao family army that stood in the way was defeated.

It was only when Xiao Mu took charge personally that he was able to stop their progress and gave Shen Lishu some time to react.

Chen Xin led the team personally and they were unstoppable all the way.

Shen Lishu was so busy that he was running around. Several other forces offered their help, but their support was too slow. Chen Xin captured five cities in one night. This speed was frightening.

Shen Lishu rushed to Yucheng to make arrangements. She hadn't slept all night. She rubbed her sore head and asked, "Where is Chen Xin?"

"We were stopped outside the Stone City by the Xiao family army and General Zhou." Taohua also became a little nervous. Even the master was so nervous, it was obvious that Chen Xin was not someone to be trifled with.

Shen Lishu waved his hand and said, "You go down first and evacuate the people in Shicheng as soon as possible."

"Yes"

Taohua went out, Shen Lishu stood up, looked at the scene of heavy snow outside, and gazed towards the direction of Shicheng across thousands of mountains and rivers.

Shen Lishu didn't expect that the day of the decisive battle would come so soon. Her cultivation was far inferior to Chen Xin's, and the domestic elites had not yet been trained. Everything happened unexpectedly.

“If I had known…” She didn’t say the rest of the words wrongly. How could she have known so much earlier…
