After leaving the Qianzhu Hall in the Lizard City, Chen Xing immediately rushed to the "Winter Wheat City" occupied by Lacey and Ye Yang Bailiu.
Dongmai City is the territory of Xiaoyue Principality, known as Xiaodongting. It is the second largest grain base in the eastern plains and is named after its abundant winter wheat.
The land area under the jurisdiction of Dongmai City is equivalent to that of Black Spear and the Principality of Nice, and the land is flatter and more fertile.
Occupying Dongmai City is equivalent to occupying a small principality.
Chen Xing took an aerostat to get there. It took him two days and one night. The aerostat was too slow and there were no flights, so he could only fly over slowly.
The second floor of the Dongmai City City Hall was transformed into a temporary residence. Servants and Dongmai City government officials were under the same roof, coming and going, each busy with their own business.
Chen Xing went straight to the entrance of the second floor. The person responsible for guarding the door was an officer of the Second Army. When he saw Chen Xing, he immediately got out of the way.
"Welcome to you, Prime Minister!"
Chen Xing nodded and walked into the hall.
As soon as I entered, I saw Lacey and Ye Yang Bailiu. The two of them were discussing something around the holographic map.
Seeing Chen Xing, both women seemed very enthusiastic.
"What kind of wind brings our Prime Minister here? Welcome!"
"A sea king crab from Hot Sand Island just arrived this morning, so we can try it together."
Two women came up to him, one holding his arm and the other pouring him wine.
"Is the Prime Minister here to guide us in fighting today?"
"If you want to defeat Bai Ye Fenghua, you really need the wisdom of the Prime Minister~"
Facing the warm reception of the two women, Chen Xing felt his head hurt.
"I'm here today because I have something to discuss with you."
Chen Xing didn't beat around the bush and directly pulled the two women to sit down on the sofa in the reception area.
He took a sip of red wine, moistened his throat, and then said straight to the point, "You have already occupied Winter Wheat City, you should be satisfied."
Hearing his words, Ye Yang Bailiu felt better, but Lacey's face suddenly dropped on the spot, with a bad tone, "Chen Erliu, this is different from what you promised!"
"Yes!" Chen Xing nodded, "I promised to give you the Dadongting, but..."
"As the saying goes, plans can't change as quickly as they change." Chen Xing said forcefully. He had already made up his mind to go back on his word. Lacey is not the Blood Queen Demon Princess, he has nothing to worry about.
"You, you!" Lacey was shaking with anger. I've probably seen shameless people before, but I've never seen anyone so shameless.
"Your Highness the Princess, calm down." Ye Yang Bailiu Cong
Beside reminded. Today's Chen Xing is no longer the little mercenary who was manipulated by others yesterday, but a two-faced god with power over the world.
If you have a head-on conflict with the other party, you will only suffer the consequences.
"Now that the north and the south have completed their reunification, the war can come to an end."
"The people need to recuperate, the economy needs to be rebuilt and restored, the soldiers who died in the war should be buried and honored, and their families should also be compensated."
Chen Xing's eyes were pure and his words were righteous, "The two queens have promised me to put aside their disputes and coexist peacefully."
"From now on, the north and south will be governed across the river, and a new chapter of the era will begin!" Chen Xing said with clenched fists, his tone was impassioned, and he had the style of a national scholar with a big heart for the world.
His political level has risen sharply recently, and he has become accustomed to using "righteousness" to package himself. In fact, deep down in his heart, he doesn't care whether the people are living well or not. All he cares about is the disaster in his own backyard.
The two women present, one from a royal family and the other from a noble family, how could they not understand Chen Xing's operation.
It's just that they see through it but don't speak out. After all, this kind of "political correctness" is the usual packaging and rhetoric of all ruling classes. Even if it were them, they would openly express their love for the world on their faces.
As for what you think in your heart and what you do in private, it all depends on your interests.
"Even if you don't care about me, you still care about the child..." Lacey softened her tone and started to play the emotional card.
"The territory you occupy now is one-third of Xiaoyue's." Chen Xing interrupted and said, "If people's hearts are not enough, you should be satisfied!"
"You are partial!" Lacey gritted her teeth and said, "Why can that little bitch Bai Yefenghua occupy the Grand East Courtyard? Is she prettier than us or does she pay more than we do?"
"Are you right, Great Priest?" Lacey glanced at Ye Yang Bailiu, seeking support from him.
"Classmate Chen, you are indeed a bit biased in doing this." Ye Yang Bailiu said with a very pertinent attitude.
Seeing the two women forming a united front, Chen Xing felt his scalp tingle.
"Oh..." he said with a grimace, "After all, Dadongting was captured by others..."
"I can beat you even if you ask me to!" Lacey interrupted Chen Xing angrily.
"I know..." Chen Xing nodded and said seriously, "With your strength, you can defeat several Great Eastern Courts without any problem."
"But you also know that the Great East Courtyard is south of Longhe and is Cuilisi's territory. I can't give it to you, a northerner, right?"
"Besides, even if I really give it to you, would you dare to come over?" Chen Xing said. His tone was sincere, and even though he seemed to be evading, he could still be considered to be expressing his sincerity.
It makes sense, and according to his memories from his previous life, the final pattern is to divide the north and the south with the Longhe moat as the boundary.
Lacey and Ye Yang Bailiu looked at each other and fell into silence.
Chen Xing felt that the two women had been persuaded, so he added more force, "Since the death of Malan 22nd, Ambergris River has been in turmoil."
"One billion people are in panic and find it difficult to live and work in peace and contentment, and the economy has also suffered a huge setback."
"To be honest, I am not a benevolent person with lofty ideals for the world, and I have never put people's livelihood in a high position."
"But I know that we are the actual controllers of this land now, and every decision we make will affect our interests."
"So I hope that you can coexist peacefully and restore the economy and production of Ambergris River as soon as possible."
"Do you think I want the Grand East Courtyard for myself?" Lacey suddenly said.
Chen Xing was stunned for a moment, thinking, if it's not for yourself, who is it for? But he didn't point it out that women always have to save some face.
"You want to say, for our children?" In order to ease the atmosphere, Chen Xing picked up the wine glass and asked with a smile while drinking.
Lacey shook her head, "You have more than one child."
"Ahem..." Chen Xing almost choked on the red wine.
"I am doing it for our northern princess." Lacey said seriously.
Chen Xing couldn't help but frowned, but when he looked at the other party, his face was calm, and it didn't look like he was lying.
"You said it was for Aaliyah?" Chen Xing spread his hands, "This is hard for me to understand."
Lacey shook her head and sighed, "It seems you are really a slow guy."
"I would like to hear the details." Chen Xing made an invitation gesture.
"Let me ask you a question, if Ice Blue City belongs to Trilis, then..." Lacey paused, "Whose belongs to Monitor Lizard City?"
"Monster City is..."
Halfway through Chen Xing's words, he felt like he was enlightened and understood instantly.
The Lizard City belongs to the Maris family, which means that Aaliyah does not have her own territory. It could even be said that she was living under someone else's roof in the Lizard City.
As a monarch, she can't compete with her ministers for territory, right?
But the current situation is okay for a short time, but problems will definitely arise over time.
"If you want peace, you must let Baiye Fenghua hand over the Great East Courtyard and give our northern princess a place to stay," Lacey said.
"Otherwise, the peace you want will only be wishful thinking!"
