The question of the frontier cannot be answered in Fengchun.
In this month, all her energy and time were put on Renhe Palace and Wen Jin.
How could she have the energy to pay attention to that?
After Wen Jin finished washing and changing clothes, he met the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother.
She immediately went with Yu'er to the hall where the foreign ministers were summoned.
The moment Han Xian and Zhou Lingfeng saw her, their eyes turned red.
Wen Jin was also startled. Zhou Lingfeng's eyebrows and beard were already gray, but now he had some wrinkles and a sense of vicissitudes of life, which made him more suitable.
Why does Han Xian even look so much older?
"In the month when the Queen Mother did not wake up, the Grand Tutor and the Imperial Master not only worked very hard to assist their sons and ministers, but also used Taoist talisman formations day and night to protect the Queen Mother's soul."
Yu'er said with a thick nasal voice.
Wen Jin couldn't help but be moved... Han Xian, whom she once suspected was a liar, and Zhou Lingfeng, who once tried to murder her life.
Now, in order to protect the ray of her soul, she put herself in such a mess.
"Thank you both, I can wake up today thanks to your protection day and night."
Wen Jin nodded to them.
Her soul and body have not yet adjusted well, and her movements are a little stiff and slow.
Fengchun and Yu'er supported her and sat down in the upper seat.
Although Han Xian and Zhou Lingfeng looked embarrassed, they looked very excited.
"How do you feel about your recovery?" Han Xian asked.
Wen Jin smiled slightly and said, "Lying for too long, my body feels like it is rusty, but my consciousness has improved.
"I will give you two new pills later. You can help me take a look."
The two looked at each other in surprise, even disbelief.
After lying down for a month, he still raised his mental power to a higher level?
I bet she wasn't in a coma, but was in "inedia retreat"?
"How is the situation with the Emperor's personal expedition?" Wen Jin asked.
There was silence in the hall for a moment.
Yu'er's little brows knitted together.
Wen Jin raised his eyebrows, "What? Haven't we always received good news before?"
Did something bad happen to her while she was sleeping for a month?
“Small-scale victories continued, but Qi’s resistance was also very stubborn.
"Furthermore, Qi State has a majority of Taoist priests and sorcerers. Although their abilities have not yet reached the level of 'spreading beans and forming an army'.
"But we still have a huge advantage against our army..." Han Xian explained in a low voice.
Yu'er's voice became more active and energetic, and louder, "Don't worry, mother, my father has been winning the battle, but the progress is slow.
“Originally, my father’s intention was not to engage in a war of attrition, but to end the battle as quickly as possible.
“But now judging from Qi’s attitude towards fighting... this battle will not be over for a while.
"The envoys we sent for peace talks were... killed by them. The DPRK estimates that it will take two or three years to completely end the fighting...
"But it doesn't matter, we will definitely win!"
There is a long-established rule, "When two armies are fighting, the envoy will not be killed."
Qi State actually beheaded the envoys sent by Liang State? !
Such a provocative and war-provoking attitude... really has no intention of negotiating peace?
Didn't it mean that their nobles wanted to negotiate a peace after the nobles' children were attacked last time?
Is there any turmoil happening within Qi State?
They have no way of knowing the inside story of Qi State now, but Wen Jin thought of the famous saying through the ages, "The prosperity of the people is bitter, and the destruction of the people is bitter."
If the war drags on for two or three years, how many soldiers will die? How much military supplies will be spent?
Human war is the most energy-consuming thing on earth.
It is completely contrary to her goal of developing the Liang Kingdom, improving the status of women, and improving the living standards of the people.
"What if we can get Chen and Song to send troops to support us?"
Wen Jin said, "Even if they don't really participate in the battle, as long as they send troops, they can put pressure on Qi, right?"
Yu'er and Zhou Lingfeng both nodded.
Han Xian touched his chin and said, "This is natural, but those two countries were also attracted by Qi before.
"But they have been waiting quietly, probably thinking that they would reap the benefits while Liang and Qi both suffer losses.
"So, it may be difficult to convince them to attack together."
Wen Jin nodded and said, "It's just difficult, but it's not completely hopeless. As long as there is hope to avoid a war of attrition that drags on for several years, no matter how difficult it is, we should give it a try."
This time, all three of them nodded.
Yu'er stood up and said, "I will discuss with Mr. Qi and Prime Minister Cai, and draft a letter from the cabinet to be sent to Chen and Song."
Wen Jin nodded.
After Yu'er got up and left.
Wen Jin stared at Han Xian with a smile on his lips.
Han Xian trembled, "Junior sister... Queen, Han's current energy may not allow him to use large-scale Taoist techniques."
Wen Jin raised his eyebrows and said, "Shrink to the ground, can't you use it anymore?"
Han Xian showed an expression of "Sure enough," and shook his head repeatedly, "It's no use, no use..."
Wen Jin took out a small porcelain bottle and threw it to him.
"Look, what's the quality of the pills now?"
This is the elixir that Wen Jin made by controlling the medicinal materials, lotus flowers, and spiritual mist in the space when he was trapped in a space and had nothing to do.
As for the grade of the elixir, she is not a Taoist and she doesn't understand.
Han Xian uncorked the vial.
Zhou Lingfeng immediately came forward.
"Oh...this breath is different!" Zhou Lingfeng's eyes widened.
Han Xian was also a little frightened, "Could it be that... the ones from before weren't considered the best?"
The white, smooth and moist pills Wen Jin gave him before were already the best of the best.
Medicines are three-part poisons, and this is especially true for refined elixirs, because elixirs contain many metal substances and the toxicity of the medicines that have not been completely processed.
Although it is helpful for spiritual practice, it will also damage the physical body.
Therefore, Taoist priests need to practice fasting from time to time in order to eliminate toxins from the body.
But the white elixir that Wen Jin gave before had no such worries at all.
He had personally experienced that kind of elixir, and one elixir was worth his decades or even twenty years of practice.
"This elixir..."
Han Xian poured the elixir into his hand. The elixir was the size of a peanut, round and shiny, with faint pink and purple lines on it.
Looking closely, the lines are gone, it seems to be just gloss.
"Amazing! Can there be such a pill in the world?" Zhou Lingfeng sighed with his eyes widened.
"It's hard to say what the grade is, because I've never seen it before. I can only give it a try." Han Xian touched his chin and said with a bit of cunning.
This grade is definitely good. Even if you have never seen it, it is easy to tell whether it is a good thing or not.
"There are two in total, you two can try it out." Wen Jin did not notice Han Xian's "little cleverness".
When she was bored, she made a lot of things and stored them in the space.
At that time, she was trapped in space and had nothing else to do. Moreover, she found that the more things required precise control, the more she could exercise her mental and willpower.
For example, refining alchemy can exercise her control over her thoughts better than plowing the ground to grow vegetables.
Zhou Lingfeng and Han Xian looked at each other.
He snatched a radiant pill from Han Xian's hand, swallowed it immediately, and sat cross-legged.
He was in the temple, sitting on the ground meditating.
