Wen Jin smiled and said, "Why I appear here is not important. Why I am here is important."
Chen Ba nodded after hearing this...
Having said that, he was still curious, how did she get here?
Did her personal guards stay outside the capital?
According to the tip, it seemed that she had not appeared behind the bead curtain at the court meeting for more than a month?
It was always the young prince who was in charge of the country.
Could it be that she has been on her way to Chen Country for more than a month?
Chen Ba was thinking wildly.
Wen Jin took out the sandalwood box, opened it, and pushed it forward.
On the brocade cloth in the box, a beautiful ruby bracelet lay quietly.
Chen Ba glanced into the box and said, "Hey..."
He gasped.
"This...isn't this the original one?"
They look similar, but very different!
The original bracelet was also this big and was placed in this sandalwood box.
It's almost the same color.
But the water head, transparency, gloss... they are not the same at all!
If you had such a beautiful bracelet like this, how dare you give it away privately? It must be dedicated to the emperor and regarded as a national treasure!
This ruby is so pure and so beautiful!
"As the saying goes, everyone cares for jade. Jade has spirituality. It will change after wearing it for a long time, but this is indeed the original one." Wen Jin said.
Chen Ba looked at her for a long time and nodded with deep understanding.
Others wearing this bracelet cannot achieve this effect.
But if she wears it, it’s not surprising.
"This is a gift from me to express my feelings when you saved my mother. Moreover, when I gave this gift to you, it was far less beautiful than it is today.
"It shows that this gift is destined to you, you are still wearing it."
Chen Ba pushed the sandalwood box back.
He didn't notice it when he didn't move the box. When he touched it, he noticed that even the sandalwood box was more moist than before.
The grain of sandalwood is beautiful and the wood is firm.
But now, the texture of this wood is like gold and jade, and its luster is shining.
He didn't show it on his face, but he was secretly amazed in his heart... No wonder Queen Daliang's reputation has spread throughout Tianlong Continent in just a few years!
There is indeed something extraordinary about her!
Her ability is probably more mysterious than he knows.
"I still remember that when Da Sima gave me this bracelet, he said that whenever I need help in the future, you will never refuse." Wen Jin said with a smile.
Chen Ba immediately stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Yes, it was Chen Ba's personal promise."
Before Wen Jin could speak again, he added.
"But sending troops to conquer Qi... is not something Chen Ba can control. My emperor..."
Chen Ba lowered his head in embarrassment.
Wen Jin smiled and nodded, "Da Sima has indeed guessed my intention.
"Of course, you are telling the truth. If His Majesty Chen Guo does not agree with this matter, you will not be able to help me no matter how much you want to."
Chen Ba breathed a sigh of relief and nodded repeatedly, "Thank you, Queen, for your consideration."
Wen Jin said, "I thought of this and came to you, which shows that you can help me."
Chen Ba looked at her puzzled.
Wen Jin said, "I'll analyze it with you. Do you think I'm right? Qi provoked Daliang, and Daliang responded. It had nothing to do with Chen.
"I heard that the State of Qi was raising troops, and I also invited the State of Chen to send troops together. Seeing that the beams are plump, let's share the pie together.
"But Chen Guo did not agree to Qi Guo's invitation..."
Chen Ba nodded repeatedly, "Exactly! Chen Guo will never send troops to help Qi attack Liang. When I was still in Liang Guo, I told my empress about Qi Guo's ambitions."
Wen Jin said, "Yes, so I am the first to see Da Sima now.
"If we don't talk about our old friends, let's look at it from a neutral standpoint. Some people may think that it is more in Chen Guo's interest to reap the benefits after both countries have suffered losses.
"But let me give Da Sima a guarantee. Liang will not be dragged down by this war.
"Whether this battle takes two years, three years, or five years, Liang Guo has the strength to withstand it.
"Our big ship is about to come back. They have already sent the message. This sea trade has yielded a lot of harvest. Pearls, gems, gold, cedar wood, etc. are all filled with the big ship.
"In terms of sea trade, Liang State is already far ahead of other countries in Tianlong Continent. If Liang State is allowed to annex Qi State by itself, we will not be able to annex it.
"And Liang Guo's casualty rate on the battlefield, have you heard? It is far lower than the normal casualty ratio in wars between countries!
“Why did Liang’s soldiers become more brave the more they fought, and the more they fought, the less afraid of life and death they became?
"Because they know that Liang Guo has a strong medical team that is desperately protecting their lives."
Chen Ba nodded deeply, "I know about this, and there is also a stir in our Chen army."
As the Grand Sima, he is naturally very concerned about military matters.
After hearing about Liang Guo's extremely low battle fatality rate, many generals came to him for advice. Why could Liang Guo do it?
Some generals who had a good relationship with him knew that he was on a mission to Liang State, and even asked him to seek advice from Liang State.
No, the opportunity to learn from the experience is already in front of us...
"I have my own selfish motives for coming today. Thinking of our past friendship, I am not afraid to speak frankly to Da Sima."
Wen Jin said with a smile, "First of all, Liang Guo's military medical team was cultivated by my cousin and I with hard work.
"I don't want them to focus all their energy on the battlefield."
Wen Jin paused and continued.
"Moreover, I am a doctor, and I heal the heart of parents. After I have children myself, I can better understand the feelings of being a parent.
"Who among the soldiers on the battlefield is not the child of their parents? Some of them are already fathers.
"I am heartbroken to see so many great lives lost in the war. I hope the war can stop as soon as possible and the people's lives can return to peace as soon as possible."
Chen Ba looked at her deeply and nodded slowly.
Wen Jin's sincerity moved him.
He is also a father, and he is fully aware of the cruelty of the battlefield.
In the past, when he had no children, he was also passionate.
After becoming a father, when he saw children, his blood became more tender.
"Moreover, how can there be an end to human desires? My emperor will go on a personal expedition to conquer the State of Qi... In the future, the State of Qi will have been completely swallowed up by me, Daliang..."
Wen Jin smiled and said, "Could my emperor's eyes be on the entire Tianlong Continent?"
Chen Ba was shocked when he heard this and looked at Wen Jin in astonishment.
Wen Jin lowered his eyes, "I am just a woman, and I also have the kindness of a woman. Unifying the Tianlong Continent will naturally have the benefits of unification. But 'the prosperity of the people is painful, and the destruction of the people is painful'."
"If we use force to unify, how much blood and lives will be paid for the unification?"
Chen Ba took a deep breath and nodded slowly.
"What the empress said...is true!
"This is not a woman's kindness, but a great love!"
Wen Jin said, "So, I would also like to ask the Grand Sima to give more advice in front of His Majesty Chen Guo, from the perspective of Chen Guo.
"You send troops now to support Liang Guo, and pay a very small price to share the soup together... It is much more cost-effective than not even having broth in the future."
Chen Ba looked at Wen Jin with surprise.
After not seeing each other for a few years, she is no longer the gentle and elegant Princess Hui she once was.
Although she spoke with a smile, she also showed her sharp edge. Behind her gentleness is her firm and powerful aura.
No wonder Emperor Liang dared to leave the government behind and go to war in person.
