Farming Space: The Lucky and Lovely Lady Come to Farm - Chapter 985: Running-in Period

Xiao Yu thought for a moment and realized that all the southwest had been captured, leaving only the two northeastern counties. “Where else?”

Gu Fei whispered: “West.”

“The west must be held in our hands. The Yunjiang River and the Jinhe River run through the entire country, and the sources of these two rivers are in the west. The water sources must be controlled in our own hands. Moreover, there are continuous mountains in the west as natural dangers, and the climate is harsh. It is the natural barrier of the Central Plains. If it is integrated into the country, it will be much easier to defend than it is now. “

Xiao Yu thought about it carefully and nodded, “You are right. In the past few years, we will store food and grass first, and then take it back when the time is right.”

He was very surprised, “How did you think of this?”

Gu Fei pursed her lips. Naturally, she had not expected it. However, in her previous life, she had seen someone analyze the strategic significance of the west to the entire Central Plains.

She naturally remembered it after seeing it.

The couple talked about something else. Xiao Yu quickly became distracted while holding Gu Fei. While raising and lowering his hands, he whispered in her ear: “I haven’t practiced dual cultivation for a long time.”

Gu Fei felt distressed that he was going out to fight again, so she half-heartedly agreed to him.

Two days later, during the morning court meeting, Xiao Yu announced the decision of the imperial commander to personally conquer the country and the queen to supervise the country.

Grand Master Su and Duke Qin both fell silent.

The courtiers were in a heated mood, and each of them raised their eyebrows and put forward countless opinions that the emperor was not suitable for the imperial conquest. Xiao Yu, above, watched them calmly.

When the officials were getting into trouble, Xiao Yu motioned to the eunuch next to him.

The eunuch whipped his whip violently, and the people in the court suddenly calmed down.

Xiao Yu said slowly: “I have made up my mind. The Ministry of Household Affairs will immediately raise food and grass, the Ministry of War will arrange the weapons, and I will personally lead the expedition in ten days.”

All the ministers suddenly lost their voices.

They looked at the young emperor above and suddenly understood the fact that the current emperor was neither as incompetent as the previous emperor nor as mediocre as the previous emperor. Most of the country was conquered by this young emperor.

Although the emperor is young, they cannot control him.

You must know that throughout the dynasties, emperors are different from each other.

If the master is weak, the ministers will be strong; if the master is strong, the ministers will be weak.

The incompetent emperor may be ostracized or even controlled by his courtiers.

The powerful emperor can control his ministers in applause, so that there is only one voice in the court.

Of course, neither of these is a good thing.

However, Xiao Yu has just succeeded to the throne, and the emperor and his ministers are still in the running-in period.

Which one is strong and which one is weak is hard to say.

Xiao Yu directly stated his decision, and the court became quiet. Xiao Yu stood up with satisfaction. The eunuch flicked his whip and shouted, “Retreat from the court.”

When Xiao Yu left the Qinzheng Hall, Grand Master Su was quickly surrounded by the courtiers. They all asked anxiously: “Why didn’t Grand Master stop the emperor’s personal expedition?”

“Also, the queen is a female, what qualifications does she have to supervise the country?”

Grand Master Su smiled enigmatically, “Why do you want to stop them? I know the Emperor and Queen better than you.”

“When the emperor goes here, he will definitely capture the two northeastern counties and return in triumph.”

“As for the queen——”

“If you just think of the queen as a female, then you will suffer a loss.”

The ministers looked at each other.

They never expected that Taishi Su would actually support the emperor’s personal expedition.

And he said something like this.

Grand Master Su is now the Dinghai Shenzhen of Daqi. Since he said this, no matter how objections the ministers had, they just kept silent.

One by one, they walked out depressed.
