Chapter 300 Departure
A group of people followed Gu Can to the backyard and saw the smooth cement floor. Duke Mu personally used the knife to test it.
"It's really hard. It's truly a divine object."
"This plant is called a potato. It can be used as a vegetable or a staple food. It's very filling, prefers cool, dry climates, is highly adaptable, and can even be grown in sandy soil. It has a short growth cycle and a very high yield."
"This is a sweet potato, just like a potato, and both the stem and the leaves are edible."
"This is cotton. It's not edible, but it's a sacred object for warmth. It can be grown in deserts. This is a cotton coat. You can try it." As soon as Gu Can finished speaking, someone handed him a cotton coat. It was summer and it was already hot. After putting on the cotton coat, he soon began to sweat.
"There are many things like this that benefit the country and the people, and there are also many methods such as kangs. Yue Ling does not like killing, I just want to ask you to help me make Yue Ling flowers bloom all over the continent." Gu Can bowed to several people with full sincerity.
"How do you want us to help you?" asked Duke Mu.
"You will know it at a glance." Gu Can gave everyone a detailed plan.
"Can I go to the battlefield too?" Xiao Mengxi asked.
"Of course. Princess Yunhe, sixteen years old. Her mother is the eldest daughter of the Minister of Rites. She is well-read and renowned for her talent. Princess Xianyang, the daughter of a general who defends the country, saw her father and brother die on the battlefield. She is well-versed in military tactics and martial arts, and she has been accompanying her father and brother on the battlefield since she was young. These two women, one literary and one martial, are as capable as any man, and Yueling is eager to recruit them."
"Are you at ease letting us take charge of the military power?" Xiao Yuanjing was puzzled.
"The military power of Dong'a is still in the hands of the War King."
"You have also taken Dong'e?"
"I've said before, what I want is not power, but to make the Moon Spirit Flower bloom all over the continent. You are all talented and virtuous people with the world at heart, so Yue Ling will naturally be relieved."
"I'll take over the affairs of this academy." After reading the plan, Master Yue was already very excited and full of energy. This was the world of great harmony in his mind!
He could bear the infamy, but if his books could spread throughout the world, everyone would be able to read and become wise, able to distinguish right from wrong. He wanted to witness such a prosperous era with his own eyes.
"Yueling thanks you on behalf of the people of the world."
"The princess has a heart full of love, and I am ashamed to be inferior to her. In such a prosperous era, I am lucky to be able to do my best to help." Taifu Yue helped Gu Can up.
"Xian Yang, no, Li Hongyu, I am willing to follow the princess and conquer the four corners of the world, so that the Moon Spirit flowers will bloom all over the continent."
"In three days, I will set off for Fengyu Pass, so please ask Hongyu to come with me."
"it is good."
"Yuewu sent General Li back to his residence to rest."
"I know you have doubts in your hearts. If you disagree, Yue Ling will not force you. But please stay in the princess's mansion for the time being. When Yue Ling's wish is fulfilled, I will set you free."
"Mr. Yue, please."
"Huaixu, you don't have to follow your father. Make the decision you think is right."
"Yes, father, Huaixu will think twice before acting."
Gu Can personally sent Master Yue back to his mansion.
"Didn't you say you were confident? How come you only managed to move two people?" Gu Liang had a rare opportunity to tease Gu Can.
"They will come. I will set off for Fengyu Pass in three days. I think I will wait for them to come and see me off." Gu Can said.
"Okay, okay, we, Cancan, have planned everything perfectly. We're going to Fengyu Pass and we don't know when we'll return. We can't use extraordinary means, so take care of yourself."
"I know, don't worry. You said I was very well-prepared. Even without using magic, my kung fu can still protect me. As for you, with the three kingdoms united, there are constant frictions and ulterior motives. Don't be bald. The Queen Mother is obsessed with looks."
"How is that possible? In your mother's eyes, I am the most handsome man in the world!" Gu Liang felt that it was not impossible to let her suffer a little.
"Hahaha, good, good, father is the most handsome man in the world."
Three days later, it was the day when Gu Can set out for the battle.
Gu Liang brought civil and military officials to see him off.
"Father, I await your triumphant return."
"I will definitely fulfill your mission and guard the borders, the people and Anqing." After saying this, Gu Can drank and mounted his horse.
"Dong, dong, dong." Gu Liang personally beat the war drums on the city wall to see her off. Gu Can, dressed in a white robe and silver armor, rode majestically on a maroon warhorse.
He turned around and looked at Gu Liang on the city wall and smiled slightly.
"Let's go. Go!"
"She is still so determined." As expected, Xiao Yuanjing and others appeared on the city wall.
"Are you really willing to let my fourth brother lead the troops?" Xiao Mengxi looked at Gu Liang and asked.
"Cancan's vision is not bad. This world has never belonged to one person or one family. It belongs to millions of people. We just happen to have the ability to take on more responsibilities. If you want to fight, I don't need you, so I won't fight? Who doesn't have a Deadpool subordinate in the royal family?"
"We don't want to cause more bloodshed and suffering. Given Duke Mu's reputation in the army, detaining you would only backfire. Except for those members of the Xiao family who are lawless and disregard human life, Cancan has assigned them new identities and tasks. You are all well-read, capable of both civil and military affairs. Don't waste your prime years."
"Did you let Yue Ling marry for this day?" Xiao Mengxi's last question.
"Cancan never jokes about sincerity, nor does she disdain to use sincerity as a bargaining chip. It is precisely because of the marriage that we understand that tolerance cannot be exchanged for peace. The Moon Spirit Flower is a flower of good fortune and longevity. Whether Miss Xiao believes it or not, Cancan sincerely hopes that the Moon Goddess can protect you."
"I just hope that women all over the world can have more choices in life," said Xiao Mengxi, who was in charge of supervising the women's college.
"Miss Xiao has a kind heart. Cancan has left twenty Moon Guards for you. Supervising the Women's College will surely be difficult. This token is for you. If you encounter any obstacles, you can act accordingly."
"You are really at ease." Xiao Mengxi looked at the sign that said "I am here in person", and he really didn't look like an emperor at all.
"No matter how much I say, it's better to leave it to time to verify. You will know the truth in the future."
After bidding farewell at the city gate, Gu Can and Li Hongyu rushed to Fengyu Pass at full speed.
After arriving at Fengyu Pass, the small kingdoms of the Western Regions frequently harassed them. Gu Can, despite his victories, never pursued the enemy. Instead, he assigned his soldiers to cultivate the land, bringing order and prosperity to the border town.
A caravan was formed to travel between various countries in the Western Regions.
After three years, the army was strong and powerful. When a small country came to harass him again, Gu Can decisively led his troops to fight. This time, Gu Can did not call off the troops. Instead, he swept across the countries and took the entire Western Region into his pocket.
Meanwhile, after the unification of the Three Kingdoms, Anqing, under Gu Liang's rule, grew increasingly powerful. He administered clean government, encouraged agriculture and sericulture, and flourished commerce. He built bridges and roads, and controlled flooding. During these three years, the weather was favorable, and the people naturally knew what good times were like.
Everyone says that Gu Liang is the true dragon emperor and a wise monarch.
After Gu Liang sorted out everything, Ji Xiaoju also took the field and conquered Nanli in three years. Now Gu Can and Ji Xiaoju are waiting for Gu Liang to send someone to take over the conquered territory.
Xiao Yuanjing led his troops to guard the southern region, Shangguan Jinrui guarded the northern border, and Yue Siyuan and Yue Taifu Xiao Mengxi jointly supervised the affairs of the academy. After three years of busy work, they no longer speculated about Gu Can's true feelings.
Nothing can prove right and wrong better than the smiles on people's faces.
As expected, time will tell. They will know whether what Gu Can said is true or false.
"Princess, we are finally going home." Li Hongyu rode a horse side by side with Gu Can.
"Yes, I miss my father and mother so much. I don't know if my father has become bald from all the hard work he has put in these years. My mother will be unhappy if she sees him." Gu Can smiled.
"The Emperor and the Empress are deeply in love, so naturally they won't be unhappy about this," said Li Hongyu.
"Of course."
"Many ministers wanted to marry their daughters into the palace, but the emperor disagreed and even punished them. The emperor is truly affectionate."
"What's wrong, Hongyu, have you fallen in love with someone else? It's that boy. I'm asking my father to grant you a marriage." Gu Can said with a smile.
"Hongyu has seen the vast world, how can she be willing to be confined to the backyard." Li Hongyu shook her head.
"Then find someone who can look at the vast world with you." Gu Can said.
"How many men are as magnanimous as the Emperor? All men in the world are unfaithful. My father loved my mother so deeply, yet he still took two concubines. My mother never said anything, but she cried every night until dawn."
