As the summer comes, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, but the war on the Hebei front is getting smoother and smoother. Every day, messengers with red flags on their backs flew into Yanjing, bringing one good news after another. Li Jing received these news every day in the Forbidden City and was in a good mood. Later, he simply sent an order and moved to Mount Wutai, Daizhou, Shanxi Province. It was called summer escape, but most of the officials of the entire military department and the cabinet of the three provinces followed, leaving only a few troops to stay, and even a 50,000 guard troops were arranged.

After dinner that day, Li Jing came to Wan'er's residence. Wan'er's eldest son Dexiang was ten years old. According to the rules, he is now training in the Spartan training camp. His second son Derui is also seven years old and has just entered the camp. After the two sons who entered the camp, Wan'er also gave birth to two daughters and one son. The three children are not yet seven years old. Now they are studying in the Yuqing Palace Kindergarten in the palace. According to the rules, children over three years old and under seven years old are not allowed to go to kindergartens. If they do not meet the first and fifteenth day of the New Year, they are not allowed to meet their mothers.

This time, Li Jing was happy and sent a special order to let the old princess in the palace and all the concubines go with them, and even the children in the kindergarten go with them. Although they have to study at Mount Wutai, they can reunite with their mothers along the way. This is the first time in the Forbidden City in this way, they are truly a mighty king. Wan'er was also very happy. She gave birth to five children for Li Jing, and the older two went to the harsh training camp. The remaining three also entered the kindergarten in the palace. They were not allowed to meet each other. She accompanied the old princess and the Great Qin Concubine all day long, and sometimes she felt deserted.

At this moment, when he heard the female official coming in and reported that the King of Qin had arrived, he hurriedly brought Defu, Thirty-nine Niang and Fifty-one Niang who had just been taken home to welcome him out of the hall and bowed his head to pick him up.

Li Jing stepped forward and pulled up his five-year-old son Li Defu, touching his short hair that had not been left on his head. He patted his two little daughters' hands one by one, and said to Wan'er: "Get up, I'm too busy for a while and I haven't turned over your sign. But I'm really thinking about you in my heart. I still have many things to discuss with the Provincial Pavilion tonight. I'll take a break and see your mothers. I'll go to Mount Wutai the morning after tomorrow."

Wan'er quickly bowed and replied, "The king is busy with everything he can still think about me. I am grateful. How dare I have extravagant hopes? I just hope that the king will not work too hard. Keeping my health first, I will be very happy with my dedication." Wan'er's words were very appropriate. Even if Li Jing hasn't come to her for a long time, she did not reveal any of them. Li Jing was very satisfied with Wan'er's general sense of sensibility, so she pulled Wan'er to sit beside her. "It's really difficult to start a business. I don't dare to relax. I know you, I am understanding, gentle and considerate, and I take care of my mother and adults on weekdays. I educate my children, but never interferes in asking about his affairs. It's precious. I can see it in my heart. Today I will tell you a good news. This time I go to Mount Wutai, called summer vacation, and it is actually a big change in the situation in Hebei."

Wan'er asked with some concern: "A big change? Did something happen?"

"Well, it's really a bit unexpected." Li Jing laughed and put Wan'er's pair of jade-like palms in his palms, gently stroking them. "It was just an unexpected surprise. The original estimate made by the Political Affairs Hall that the Battle of Hebei will be at least the end of the year, and it may even be possible to completely pacify the two feudals until next year. But now, the situation is gratifying. The war has just started, and the effect is much better than the prediction. According to the current situation, the previous plan has been too conservative. After re-researching by the Provincial Pavilion and the Courtyard, they all agreed that the external situation is now very good.

It is very beneficial to us. The two towns in Hebei are completely isolated and they have no reinforcements. Therefore, we should take this opportunity to launch the real offensive originally scheduled for autumn and pacify the two towns in this summer. This time, we went to Wutai alone to suppress the Hedong area and prevent Hedong and Hezhong from intervening in Hebei at this time. There are 50,000 elite troops in Daizhou. Once Hedong dares to move, we will immediately rush our troops south and attack Hedong directly. If the war in Hebei goes well and can capture the entire Hebei and pacify the two feudals in the summer, then Hedong will be our next goal."

"Ah, is that true? The two Hebei feudals will be pacified soon?"

Li Jing Duanxiang smiled slightly with Wan'er's surprised and pleasant and gentle face, "What, can Gu still deceive you? Five years ago, Gu was preparing to pacify Hebei. But at that time, although he controlled Lu Long and Cangjing, there were Li Keyong in the west, and Khitan and Xi in the north. The backyard was unstable. How to clear the vestibule? This time finally ripe. After several years of unity, we conquered the north outside the pass, occupied Daibei and Yiwu, and the troops were more refined, and the grain and grass warehouses were surplus again. Especially the second towns in Hebei were completely isolated by us. Now the Central Plains began to fight again and were unable to take care of themselves. It was a good time for us to collect Hebei. Three months, the second towns in Hebei will be completely pacified. Once Hebei is flat, the next one will be Hedong, and then head south to the Central Plains and march west to Guanzhong. The world can be settled."

The Central Plains of Zhulu is actually like rolling a snowball. At the beginning, it was the most difficult time. First, you had to pinch the loose snow into a tight ball and then roll the snow. At the beginning, the snowball was still loose. If it hits a stone stump or something, it would dissipate. Be careful. But if the snowball rolls up, it will be formed and difficult to destroy. The snow on the ground will only be stuck by the snowball and become part of the increasingly larger snowball.

Wan'er was also excited when she heard this. Although she was in the deep palace and never interfered with things outside the palace, she was still very clear about the situation outside. She knew that with the current strength of Qin's vassal, after conquering the second towns in Hebei, the entire east of the Tang Dynasty would be completely the Qin's vassal. From then on, within the pass, Hebei, Shandong, Jianghuai was connected into a line, starting from Hetao in the northwest, to Yanliugouzhu Mountain, Wutai Mountain to Wei.

The Taihang Mountains, then the canals in Henan, then cross the Huaihe River, connect to the Dabie Mountains, and the vast sea to the east. This huge area has been the territory of the Qin Kingdom since then. It can be said that the strategic situation of the Qin vassal state is in a good situation of resting on its own. Controlling Hebei, sleeping on Shandong, connecting to Hedong, and relying on the outside of the pass, the foundation of the Qin vassal state has been established. She is proud of her husband from the bottom of her heart, and this man will become the king of the king and the pride of heaven.

"From now on, no one can stop Gu's pace of seizing the world. Wan'er, you gave birth to three or two daughters for Gu. They will become kings and princesses of the new empire in the future. You have suffered a lot with me before, so you can enjoy happiness in the future."

Wan'er was a little shocked when she listened to Li Jing's words that their children would become kings and princesses of the new empire in the future. If the husband becomes the emperor, her daughter will naturally be the princess, but can her son become the king? However, she suppressed the excitement in her heart and did not ask Li Jing.

Li Jing chatted with Wan'er for a while, and had some food with Wan'er's mother. Before leaving, he asked Wan'er to take care of his mother Han. Originally, Li Jing did not intend to let Han go, but Mount Wutai was known as the four major Buddhist holy places in Middle-earth. There was even a saying of "Jin Wutai, Silver Emei, Tong Putuo, and Iron Jiuhua". Han, who had always admired Buddhism, insisted on going to Mount Wutai to burn incense and worship Buddha. Li Jing thought about it and said that this time he went to Mount Wutai was not a marching and war, so he agreed.

After talking for a while, and after praising Wan'er, Li Jing left.

The imperial meeting in the evening was the last meeting before going to Mount Wutai. Although some ministers advised Li Jing to be in a 100-year-old mountain, he should not go to Mount Wutai, which is close to Taiyuan, Hedong. He suffered the pain of being so stubborn that he could not sit in the hall. Some people also said that the most important thing at the moment is to pacify the second towns of Hebei. To restrain Hedong, you only need to send a general to Yanmen. The Qin King personally led a large army to go to the Chang'an court. If he didn't do it well, it would be a problem if he reacted too much. However, Li Jing had already decided in his heart that he would not worship Buddha or escape from the summer heat. However, Hebei is about to be pacified.

It was still in chaos. Hedong Town is now without a leader, and most of the elite troops are still far away in Henan. At this time, it was the time when Hedong was empty. Li Jing did not attack Hedong before, because Hebei was not pacified. Now that Hebei is about to settle down, Li Jing naturally turned his attention to Hedong Town and moved to Mount Wutai north of Taiyuan. He wanted to establish a front-line command here to deal with the changes in the situation on the front line in the fastest time and make the latest decisions. The 50,000 Guards are an assault force. Once the time is ripe, Li Jing can use this force with the steward as an assault cluster at any time and directly attack Taiyuan.

As for the issue of grain supply, after pacifying Daibei, Li Jing no longer transported grain from Shanxi. Instead, he secretly transported grain to Shanxi provinces every year. At the frontiers of Yanmen Pass in Daizhou, Chitang Pass, Shiling Pass in Xinzhou, etc., four million stones of military ration had already been stored. In addition, there were still 10 million stones of grain in Yizhou, Hebei, and the three passes of Mozhou, Yingzhou, and Hejian, which was separated by a mountain, there was still 10 million stones of grain in Hebei, which was enough.

Whether it is the external surrounding situation or Qin Fan’s own preparations, everything is ready. The opportunity must not be missed, and the time will never come again. Li Jing will not miss it if he sees the opportunity.

During the regular discussion, a loud report came from outside, the guards in front of the hall reported, and the urgent report from Hebei.

Li Jing took the urgent report submitted and opened it and read it quickly.

A moment later, Li Jing read a book and put the letter on the desk. The civil and military officials in the hall looked at Li Jing, but there was no clue on his face. He didn't know whether the urgent report he had just delivered was good or bad.

While guessing, Li Jing, who was in the head, suddenly burst into laughter, "Everyone, the good news I just received, Weibo Town has been pacified!"
