C23 The Halberd of Jiang Expanded the Land and Opened up the Border

You-jie, it was supposed to be quiet and lonely... The Great Master had named the building to warn his children and grandchildren, not to mix with corrupt officials and corrupt officials. He was willing to clean himself up and be a lone official. Most of the scholars in Shuxiang faction were good at this, and it was also to honor the family's strict and upright conduct. There was nothing wrong with that.

However, Fu Si's child was different from others. He was born with a rough life. In the future, in order to conceal his daughter's identity, he had to avoid the world. This loneliness was not something that could be explained by a single person.

After all, it was the flesh in his heart. Fu Shen really did not want his daughter to spend her entire life on the word 'Jie'. (Jie: Alone)

Now, the old lady had arranged for Fu Si to live in the Solitary Pavilion. As her son, he had yet to fulfill his filial piety. Her father had just passed away, so she could not go against her father's wishes at this moment. Thinking about how Fu Si would become a new year in the future, it would not be appropriate for her to stay in the old Grand Preceptor's courtyard. He had to live in a different courtyard, so he had no choice but to do so for the time being. He could only comply with his mother's loving heart.

Who could have predicted that after the old woman passed away, she would close her eyes and leave behind her last words. She would let Fu Si live in the courtyard. He would leave all the private antiques of the family to Fu Si. No one else was allowed to touch them. It seemed that this matter was not a big deal. In fact, there was a lot of knowledge involved.

The old lady lived in the main courtyard. She had lived in it for a few generations. Everything in the house was the best. The old lady was still living in the old lady of nature, while Fu Shen was still living in the side courtyard where he was getting married. If the old lady went, it should be Fu Shen and his wife who would inherit it. After that, she would pass it on to Fu Si, but now, she let Fu Si stay first. A son of the family lived in a side courtyard of the house, and for some unknown reason, he was still an unfilial son. It could be seen how much the old lady doted on him.

However, this was just gossip. Fu Tine entered the Lone Silence Pavilion and did not move out even after the Great Zhou moved out. She had truly enjoyed the nobility of several lifetimes.

The words were divided into two parts and each part was expressed.

In these few years, Ji Jiang had not been idle at all in the north-western grasslands. According to Qii Liufeng's plan, he would first suppress the weak tribes, and the powerful tribes would send their daughters to form an alliance with their own families. When he became stronger, he would then plan for them one by one. In any case, Ji Jiang had countless women with his hands, and countless daughters with his hands. There were even some who did not even remember their appearances and did not feel sad or sad when they married.

After a few seasons of winter and summer, the ambitious Ji Jiang was no longer the little king of the grassland. He unified the entire north-western grassland and conquered a few small foreign countries that clung to Great Zhou. He expanded his power by countless times and extended his territory to the East Russia in the future.

In the spring of the 17th year of Emperor Wen's reign, Ji Jiang had sacrificed the God of Snow Mountain and called himself the "King of Justice." Shinian Fusi was twelve years old and Ji Cheng was sixteen. He had tied up his hair.

Ever since Ji Jiang claimed to be the king, the north-western grasslands of various tribes were as numerous as cow hair. There had been a tremendous change. First of all, the state of Zheng had a complete system of governance, and Ji Jiang had taken up the positions of civil and military officials. They were different from the generals in the past, who were in charge of everything. Secondly, the imperial harem was properly settled, and the queen's concubines and concubines were given titles. Finally, the group of children conferred the title of prince and princess, and they had their own military fiefdom.

At this moment, the grassland, no, it should be said that it was no longer the barbaric and homeless tribe of the past. It was just like a proper kingdom, standing tall on the grassland in the northwest of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It was like a sleeping beast had finally awakened, grinding its bloodthirsty fangs. The tiger looked at the prosperous land of Great Zhou.

This year, Ji Jiang took in Qii Liufeng's words and refused to pay tribute to Emperor Zhou Wen. The gold and silver grain he saved was used to recover the lives of the rich and powerful soldiers of the country, in order to conquer the south in the future.

When the news spread to the Great Zhou Dynasty, Emperor Wen, who was lazy, sensed the worry in the northwest and hurriedly called for a group of important officials to discuss it. However, there was no Fu Shen among the important officials. Emperor Zhou allowed Ding Yang to carry the coffin back to the river, and it had been more than half a month since he left.

Before the Great Zhou Imperial Court could come to a conclusion, there was an urgent report from the other side: the Great Zhou Imperial Court's messenger has come to Zhang Province.

Zhang Province was adjacent to the capital, guarding and assisting, but it was actually the final barrier of the capital.

The sudden arrival of the Imperial Court's messenger startled Emperor Zhou Wen and all the officials. After hearing that there was only the Imperial Advisor, Qii Liufeng, the Twelve Princes, Ji Cheng and a dozen guards in the diplomatic mission, and that there was no carriage or horse accompanying them, he heaved a sigh of relief.

The reason why the diplomatic mission had come so suddenly was all because of the investigation of the military situation. Qii Liufeng and his disciple had snuck into Great Zhou and disguised themselves as civilians to hide their tracks. Along the way, they investigated the defenses of the pass, who the generals were, and how the military strength was. It was only when they entered Zhang Province that they revealed their identities.

When the dynasty's tribute had yet to reach and Great Zhou was still suspicious, Qii Liufeng had personally taken the risk as an envoy. Of course, Ji Jiang would not allow that to happen.

Qii Liufeng said, "This diplomatic mission must be carried out. I must buy a year's time for the king. After this year, yes." Ignoring Ji Jiang's worries, he insisted on ordering the Twelve Princes, Ji Cheng, who was at the end of the line in terms of martial arts and archery, to go with him. Before he left, he even arrogantly said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will be back soon. I understand that Emperor Wen's son won't be able to touch me at all."

Although his words were spoken so easily, Qii Liufeng was clearly aware in his heart. He had to personally see Great Zhou put up defenses, or else he would not be able to guarantee an absolute victory. After a few years of conquering the east and west, Great Zheng had to recuperate and amass military strength. If not, they would not be able to shake the Great Zhou Dynasty. In order to leave behind a large amount of gold and grain, the army would not be restricted by grain when attacking the Helan Pass in the future. If it were anyone else, they would not be at ease.
