Chapter 499

In the past year, although Empress Wei and the Qin family had given her good nourishment, the task of recuperating her body was not something that could be done overnight. She needs to slowly recover for two to three years...

Gu Zezhi's eyes flashed slightly as he added, "We're going to the Western Border this time for Wang Yu."

Qin Jiu, whose eyes were originally half-closed and half-squinted while on his lap, opened wide of a sudden.

Gu Zezhi continued, "After the year, there will be a battle between the court and Wang Yu."

Qin Jiu's sleepiness completely disappeared, her almond-shaped eyes looking clear as she looked at him with all seriousness.

From this perspective, her eyes were even larger, and her eyelashes were so thick that they looked like little fans.

Gu Zezhi continued calmly, "The court will have a war against Wang Yu, and Yuzhou cannot continue to dominate."

"A few years ago, due to the bandits from Northern Yan, Western Xinjiang, Minzhou, and Jinzhou, the court had no spare power to move, but different could be said now..."

They only require some additional strength.

Although a lot of money was taken from pirates in Minzhou in the first half of the year, and a sum was also obtained from Beiyan, he and the emperor knew that relying on this silver to maintain the war against Wang was far from enough.

However, this kind of opportunity does not come again, so it should not be overlooked. Now was the best time; they could no longer wait. If they missed this opportunity, they would have to make an even greater effort to clean up Yuzhou the next time.

"If the court wants to take Yuzhou, it must use a strategy."

Taking down Yuzhou at a minimum cost, whether Imperial Consort Fang or Gu Xi, was a setup for this inevitable battle.

Gu Zezhi was still smiling, but his eyes became sharp.

Qin Jiu casually picked up, "So, we're going to make a trip to the Western Frontier?"

Qin Jiu's sentence was completely following Gu Zezhi's previous words, but in fact, she did not understand at all. What was the connection between taking Yuzhou and going to the Western Frontier?

Gu Zezhi blinked at her and said, "As a son, it's only natural for you to take your new wife back to pay respects to your father, wangye."

Qin Jiu: "...."

What she could be certain of was that the golden thigh had conspiracy brewing; there must be!

One fact after another proves that people who were targeted by the gGolden thigh often had no good ending. Qin Jiu silently broke into a cold sweat for the person he was targeting.

Gu Zezhi bent his head and kissed the corner of her lips, warmly soothing, "Don't worry." He would not let her get caught in a trap; it was this long journey that he was afraid of tiring her.

His gentle voice exuded a slightly hoarse charm into a small carriage.

Qin Jiu let out a "hmm" and casually played with the sheepskin jade pendant he had tied around his waist, without any worries.

With Gu Zezhi around, what did she have to worry about!

Anyway, he must have thought of everything that she could not.
