After being reborn, she became the richest man without being a queen

Chapter 157 Credit
The development of things far exceeded Shen Qingling's expectation.

She originally thought that the Khitan's huge army was secretly sent in from the border by the Beiliang Palace, but she heard an unbelievable news from Qi Xiu.

"There has never been infiltration, because the soldiers are inside the pass." Qi Xiu said.

The Northern Liang Palace has been planning how to embrace the glory of the Hefu a few years ago. The Tianri Sect is a pawn, as are the pirates on the east sea.

In other words, the vast majority of the soldiers who are fighting against Qiubo outside the city at this moment are members of the Tianri Sect, and only a small number of them are soldiers who have been mixed into the Li Dynasty from Khitan one after another over the years.

"Which two tribes are outside? Which leader is leading the army? How many people are there?" Shen Qingling continued to ask.

Qi Xiu swallowed his blood, smiled, and said, "Which tribe is important? The leader is General Changsheng under the eldest prince, and the assistant is General Yifu under the third prince. If it weren't for the two of them Even if ten of them go out of Yongguan, they will not be able to survive for two months."

"Just say whatever you want, don't add your own ideas." Shen Qingling shook the bell, and asked expressionlessly: "How many people are there? Besides your food line, do they have any other food? Supply line?"

"3 people." Qi Xiu took a deep breath and replied with lingering fear.

An army of 3 people will certainly not have only Qi Xiu's supply of food and grass. However, Yang Tu led people to investigate the periphery many times, but he was unable to find any traces related to the escort of food and grass.

It is also possible that the Khitan people learned their lesson and acted more covertly.

"There are six food and grass lines in total, three of which are inside the pass and three are outside the pass." Qi Xiu said confidently: "As for the other five specific information, I don't know. These things are handled by the Khitan themselves. If you want to inquire, there is only one dead end."

It is precisely because he is not so important in the whole battle situation that Qi Xiu has two minds, but in the end, it is still nothing to fetch water from the bamboo basket, and he has reached the current situation.

"What else do you know?" Shen Qingling asked.

Qi Xiu raised his eyes to look at her, and asked back: "Little lady came here, shouldn't she already know a lot of things? The emperor just wants to give up leaving Yongguan and take back Yanyun sixteen states first! If this is not the case, how can the prince Possibly plan this?"

One city is exchanged for Yanyun's fertile land.

Looks like a good deal.

"Do you know why the emperor wants to mobilize the whole country's troops to take down the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun?" Shen Qingling suddenly stood up straight, with a cold face, "You don't know, you will never know, or in other words, you don't care if you know .”

Qi Xiu, who was dazed by the question, raised his head and opened his mouth, with a dazed expression.

And Shen Qingling continued: "The Yanyun area is my Li Dynasty's armor, a heart guard to protect the capital, and a natural barrier! Only when Yanyun is taken back, Li Chao's back will be afraid of foreign invaders. People don’t always worry about being displaced.”

This is something most people know.

"But is that all?"

Shen Qingling looked at Qi Xiu, and said word by word: "Yanyun sixteen prefectures are rich in good horses, and the water and grass are fertile, if it stays in the hands of the Khitan people for one more day, my Li Dynasty will be in danger of overthrowing the country for one more day! You guys It is a very good idea, as long as the wolves are lured into the house, the status of Beiliang Palace will be irreplaceable, and even the emperor will rely on you more than before."

Sentence after sentence, Qi Xiu's face was completely devoid of blood.

"However, you have overlooked one thing. How can it be beneficial to seek skin from a tiger? You think that the emperor can only rely on you if foreign invaders are attracted, but have you ever thought about Khitan becoming big? Have you ever thought about the Li Dynasty destroying the country? No! Oh no, maybe there is, as far as you are concerned, there is no difference in thinking whether it is the Li Dynasty or other royal families who ruled the Central Plains. After all, your family's prince and ancestor are also slaves with three surnames."

Qi Xiu's face turned pale immediately, and he drooped his head and stopped talking.

"Let's go, let him live, and let him see with his own eyes how the Beiliang Palace collapsed." Shen Qingling took the veil from Xue Yu's hands to cleanse her hands, and said, "A good planner seeks power, and a bad planner seeks power." Son, the King of Beiliang and Li Youyu have exhausted their tricks, so they probably didn't expect to kill me halfway."

Without Shen Qingling, Xue Yu would not have come out of Yongguan, and Shan Qun would not have died.

At that time, the emperor could really only pin his hopes on Li Youyu and the King of Beiliang, maybe Li Yu would not be able to continue supporting himself in the northern border.

A losing game.

"Fortunately, I have you." Xue Yu took Shen Qingling's hand, and carefully wiped the blood under her nails, "Qingling, I thank you on behalf of the common people. When I return to Beijing this time, I will show up Your Majesty, let you get the honor you deserve."

Shen Qingling withdrew her hand and said indifferently: "No need. Ayu, this is the city you defended with your life. Even without me, you have started to escort the people out of the city now, don't you? I don't need anything Credit, those are things outside of me.”

She is lying.

But there was only purity and clarity in her eyes.

If you ask Shen Qingling what she needs most, then what she needs most is power, the power that can directly overthrow Shen Zeng, and the power that can protect the one she loves.

When she was just reborn, Shen Qingling just wanted to hide away and be her own rich man.But the dangers told her again and again that she couldn't escape, and she couldn't avoid it.

"You came here for me." Xue Yu looked at Shen Qingling for a moment, "Let me just imagine, Qingling, if you said that you don't want credit or honor, then I can think that you did it for Am I coming?"

"Yes." Shen Qingling nodded without hesitation.

How difficult it is for a woman to be an official, Shen Qingling, who has experienced it all her life, knows best.So she wants to use the emotion in her heart to seek, she wants to send Xue Yu on a completely different path from her previous life, she wants Xue Yu to give power to the government.

But is it just Xue Yu?

No.

If it's just Xue Yuquan who is in power, Shen Qingling has to take the risk that he will become the second Li Yu.

In other words, this time, Shen Qingling wanted to use the power of a man to plan for herself a great achievement that even the emperor would not be able to do easily.

Because it is a woman.

Because she is just a woman with great achievements, the emperor doesn't need to worry about her disobedience.What would have been a troubled womanhood now becomes a talisman.

Shen Qingling smiled slightly, leaned over to hug Xue Yu, patted him on the back with one hand, and said: "Ayu, I like you, I'm here for you."

Where Shen Qingling couldn't see, two lines of clear tears flowed from the corners of Xue Yu's eyes.

Zhang Su, who was waiting outside, raised her hand to wipe her face, and sighed in her heart: "It turns out that the second lady can't stop the lord, not the lord can't stop the second lady."
