Liu Mingzhi stopped in front of the window and waited until the first ray of light appeared on the eastern sky before leaving the study and going to Qi Ya's boudoir.
Qi Ya sat in front of the dressing table and lightly brushed her eyebrows to do her makeup, while Liu Mingzhi leaned over in front of the washstand and picked up cold water and applied it to his face.
Applying the cold well water to his face immediately washed away a lot of Liu Mingzhi's tiredness from a sleepless night.
Qi Ya inserted a simple wooden hairpin into her bun, stood up, walked to the closet, rummaged for a while, and then took out the sky blue Confucian robe.
"Husband, you've been up all night dealing with official duties. Do you really want to rest here all morning? If you feel that your body can't bear it, don't hold on!"
Liu Mingzhi picked up the water glass and gargled the green salt in his mouth, then picked up a towel and wiped the water stains on his cheeks.
"Sister Ya, my husband really doesn't need to rest. Although he didn't sleep all night last night, my husband is surprisingly energetic now. He feels more energetic than after a good night's sleep."
Qi Ya rolled her eyes delicately, picked up the sky blue Confucian robe and walked to Liu Mingzhi to undress and change his clothes.
"You, you, you know nonsense. I am already in my thirties, but I have never heard that people who have not slept all night are more energetic than those who have slept all night.
I can also see that you are indeed in good spirits now, but I understand in my heart that your good spirits have absolutely nothing to do with your sleepless night.
What really makes you energetic is the contents of the book brought back by the general of the two armies of the Western Expedition.
It seems that the content reported by the two marshals in the book makes you very excited!"
Liu Mingzhi laughed, held Qi Ya's jade cheeks with both hands and kissed the beauty's lips heavily.
After a long time, Liu Mingzhi savored the faint fragrance between his lips and teeth, took off his belt and handed it to Qi Ya, whose face was slightly red.
“My parents are the ones who gave birth to me, and it’s Sister Ya who knows me!”
Qi Ya gave Young Master Liu a tender look and stuffed the Confucian robe into Young Master Liu's hands.
"We are an old married couple, and we don't know any shame."
Liu Mingzhi put on his own clothes with a faint smile: "It is natural for a husband to kiss his wife, what is there to be ashamed of?"
"Shameless, full of nonsense.
Since you are in such good spirits, can you tell me what is written in the book?
I am very curious. The Western Expeditionary Army is currently in Dashi. What is the situation in the two countries of Tianzhu? It makes you so excited that it is difficult to sleep.
Although I don’t know the specific content, I guess it should be extremely uplifting.”
Taking the belt from Qi Ya's hand and tying it around his waist, Liu Mingzhi walked to the table, poured a cup of herbal tea and drank it.
"It is indeed quite encouraging. More than a year has passed by in a hurry. Now the two armies of the Western Expedition have not only established a foothold in Dashi and Tianzhu, but the left army commanded by my uncle Zhang Kuang has also expanded.
Ambition for the land west of the Great Food Country.
Moreover, when they were capturing the great food king Mohammed Mader, his uncle and the others even encountered Sail Jianghe and the others in the territory of Yemen.
Even my husband never thought of this situation.
Now that they are in Dashi and Tianzhu, the two countries have launched actions to appease the people's livelihood. Maybe it won't be long before I, Dalong, will add two more protective palaces.
However, the Protectorate's Mansion is the second best. The old man Wanyan Chizha's vision is as vicious as ever!
He had already guessed what his husband was thinking. During the Western Expedition, he, Uncle Zhang Kuang, Uncle Nangong Ye, and Uncle... After several discussions, they worked out a set of good strategies for managing the food and the people's livelihood in Tianzhu.
The farsightedness even amazed my husband.
Moreover, the troops on the left now have to take action against Rome, Great Food in White Clothes, Egypt, the Sun Never Sets and other countries to the west of the Great Food Kingdom.
This shows that Uncle Zhang Kuang has understood his husband's thoughts.
Now that I know that the current situation of the Western Expeditionary Army is very good, my husband can finally let go of his worries.
Although it can't be said to be completely worry-free, it is almost the same.
Now that it is confirmed that the situation of the Western Expedition Army in the two countries is good, my husband can safely send a letter to his two uncles to transfer the soldiers and horses of the Anxi Protectorate and the soldiers and horses of the allied forces of the Western Regions back to our country.
Dragon Land is here.
As long as hundreds of thousands of their elite soldiers and horses who have experienced hundreds of battles are mobilized, my husband can put his mind to his heart that the imperial court may go to war with Tsarist Russia.
With these 400,000 elite men at hand, we can feel comfortable and fearless whether we are attacking or defending.
Now that the imperial court has been recuperating for more than a year, although the national treasury is not as full as usual, it is not afraid of a second expedition.
As long as Her Majesty, the little empress of Tsarist Russia, dares to be violent, my husband will definitely let her remember her for a long time.
The fact that our country had many wars with Tsarist Russia has always been a pain in my throat, but now I am finally relieved."
Qi Ya nodded understandingly and looked at Liu Mingzhi with a faint smile: "I see, no wonder husband you are still full of energy after a sleepless night. What the two uncles reported is really exciting.
And now I finally understand the meaning of what they said when I was chatting with Sister Wanyan and Sister Junyao at home."
Liu Mingzhi was stunned when he was drinking tea, and looked at Qi Ya who looked like she suddenly realized something with curiosity: "Huh? What topic were you talking about at the beginning?"
"Sister Wenyan, Sister Junyao, they have discussed more than once why you, my husband, are going to conquer Dashi and Tianzhu, two small barbarian countries in a foreign land.
There are 400,000 elite soldiers and horses stationed in the north. The longest-serving soldiers have been fighting in the north and south, east and west for decades, and the shortest ones have only been in the army for three or four years. And because of the unification of the world, in these three years
In four years, he fought on the battlefield many times.
The soldiers and horses who can survive the war to dominate the world are all elite soldiers who have fought in hundreds of battles, and all of them are the elite among the elite.
The soldiers and horses of the Anxi Protectorate and the soldiers and horses of the coalition forces of the countries in the Western Regions are also elite veterans who have participated in many battles to unify the world.
Judging from the imperial court's records of Dashi and Tianzhu on the map at that time, although the two countries had vast territories, they were sparsely populated and had weak men.
The kings of the two countries seem to have vast territories of hundreds of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, but in fact they are powerful on the outside and weak on the inside.
Why does your husband need to mobilize millions of elite troops to conquer such two small barbarian countries?
At that time, the two of them discussed it several times, but in the end they could not come up with a solution.
Sister Wanyan and Sister Junyao, one of them is a former emperor of the Jin Kingdom, and the other is the Great Khan of Taichang of the former Turkic Royal Court.
Neither of them can guess what your husband is thinking and what his purpose is, and I, a female prostitute who only knows how to care for her husband and raise her children, can't even guess what you are thinking.
But they guessed that the reason why your husband dispatched so many elite soldiers and horses at once was definitely not just to conquer the two countries of Tianzhu, but he must have other motives.
As for what the plan is, my sisters really can't guess.
But what my husband just said made me suddenly enlightened and enlightened.
It turns out that my husband really had other motives for mobilizing millions of troops and going on a long-distance expedition.
As for Dashi and Tianzhu, the two small barbarian countries are nothing more than keys to unlock the door in your eyes.
The fundamental purpose of the husband is actually in all the countries in the far west.
I wonder if what I said is correct?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Qi Ya's beautiful crescent-shaped eyes, happily put down the tea cup and reached out to pinch Qi Ya's nose a few times.
