Chapter 269 Moon Goddess: Can’t let her continue…

Unparalleled city.

The sun is shining brightly, and the atmosphere is magnificent.

With Tianxuan's victory over the 200,000-strong Xiongnu army, this city, built on the Hexi Corridor and controlling the traffic between the Central Plains and the Western Regions, not only consolidated its foundation and frightened the surrounding tigers, leopards, jackals and wolves, but also successfully established its reputation. As soon as the smoke of war dissipated, the city returned to its former prosperity.

No, it should be a higher level of prosperity!
Caravans were constantly passing through the city gates; the crops outside the city were lush and green; the soldiers guarding the city had many different looks from those in the Central Plains. Wushuang City seemed to have been reborn from the ashes, full of endless vitality.

"Today alone, Wushuang City's revenue is at least five thousand taels of silver."

On the city gate tower, a man with a handsome appearance like Bai Feng and Zhang Liang, who would make people doubt his gender, leaned on the battlements of the city gate with both hands and spoke in a tone not without pride.

"Exactly."

As soon as the handsome man finished speaking, he heard words of approval from behind him.

Xiao He, a popular figure beside Wushuang Jun Tianxuanzi, was wearing a black official robe that represented his status as a county magistrate. He walked out from behind the handsome man in white and admired the spectacular scenery below with him.

"Brother Chen Ping, this is a blank world, waiting for people of insight like you and me to display our abilities!"

As a farmer's disciple taken from the Zhu family by Tianxuan, Xiao He initially worked for Tianxuan, simply fulfilling his mission. However, as time went by, he witnessed the establishment and rise of Wushuang City, which extended its tentacles to the vast Western Regions. Xiao He, and even his friends: Liu Ji, Cao Shen, Zhou Bo, Fan Kuai and others, have completely surrendered to Tianxuan, and want to show their talents under Tianxuan and make a name in history!
As for Chen Ping, he had just joined Tianxuan not long ago.

"A blank world is good," Chen Ping was moved at first, then smiled bitterly, "but whether it can belong to us forever is hard to say!"

"This is not what you and I should care about." Xiao He said lightly, "All you and I can do is to do our best in this blank world. As for whether it can be preserved, it depends on you!" At the end, Xiao He suddenly turned his head, and his warm and wise eyes shot directly at Tianxuan Temple.

"Yes, whether it can be saved depends on your Majesty." Chen Ping smiled freely.

"By the way, Brother Xiao He," after a moment of silence, Chen Ping looked at Xiao He, "Did you come to me just to talk about this?"

"Of course not." Xiao He shook his head. "Brother Chen Ping, the Lord asked me to tell you that he intends to send Li Shang to lead 3,000 soldiers to conquer the small country of Gumo in the Western Regions. He is in need of a military advisor!"

"Okay!" Chen Ping's eyes lit up and he agreed immediately.

At dusk, Li Shang and Chen Ping led 3,000 soldiers and three sand boats, and left Wushuang City in a mighty manner, heading towards conquering the small country in the Western Regions - Gumo, marking the first step for Tianxuan to dominate the Western Regions.

…………

Tianxuan Temple.

"Your Majesty, there are currently 21,200 soldiers in Wushuang City; 300,000 taels of gold, 1,000,000 taels of silver; 200,000 dan of various grains, 30,000 dan of meat; 30,000 war horses, 8,000 cattle, 2,000 donkeys, and 50,000 pigs;..."

Xiao He stood beside Tianxuan, his plain face full of confidence from the bottom of his heart, reporting the situation of Wushuang City to Tianxuan.

"very good!"

When Tianxuan came from Guanzhong, he had only 10,000 soldiers, 30,000 taels of gold, and 10,000 shi of grain. After more than two years of hard work, he has such a huge fortune. After Xiao He finished his report, Tianxuan's handsome face was full of pride, and he praised. "Once Chen Ping and Li Shang conquer Gumo, it will only take three to five years to control the Western Regions. By then, we can return to Xianyang and become important officials of your majesty, or we can dominate the Western Regions and leave a century of wealth for our descendants!"

"Your Majesty is right."

Xiao He was reminded of the past by Tianxuan's words. He recalled that three years ago, he was just an unknown disciple of a farmer's family. Now, he has become a big man who can decide the fate of countless people. He nodded in agreement, and looked at Tianxuan, the mentor who promoted him, with a look of gratitude from the bottom of his heart.

"Go down!"

Tianxuan waved his hand, indicating that Xiao He could leave.

"I'll take my leave." Xiao He accepted the order and left the Xuanyuan Hall respectfully.

"Ink Crow!"

Tian Xuan watched Xiao He leave his sight, with a warm expression on his handsome face. When Xiao He left, the warm expression on his face disappeared, replaced by a solemn expression. With a clear shout, he summoned the number one master of Night Owl.

"grown ups."

Following Tianxuan's call, Mo Ya, dressed in black brocade clothes, with a handsome face and a hint of evil, appeared beside him like a ghost.

"Has Liu Ji secretly tried to win over Xiao He and others these days?" Tian Xuan glanced at Mo Ya and asked calmly.

"Sir, no. General Liu Ji knows when to advance and when to retreat. Every day he either drinks and gambles with his soldiers, or does what he is supposed to do. He always maintains a good relationship with Fan Kuai, Zhou Bo, Xiao He, Cao Shen and others!" Mo Ya reported everything.

"Very good!" After receiving Mo Ya's detailed report, Tian Xuan's expression eased a little.

"My dear husband, you seem to be very afraid of Liu Ji?" Suddenly, a cold and beautiful voice sounded outside the hall. As soon as the voice sounded, the black crow disappeared into the darkness again. The Moon Goddess of Yin-Yang Family stepped briskly into the Xuanyuan Hall. Seeing that there was no one else in the hall, the Moon Goddess took off the purely decorative eyeshadow and did not mind exposing her beautiful eyes with cold moonlight in front of Tianxuan.

Bang!
As she spoke, the Moon Goddess had already come to Tianxuan's side. She twisted her willow waist and sat in Tianxuan's arms. She stretched out a pair of white jade arms and wrapped them around Tianxuan's neck. Her beautiful eyes, no longer covered by eye shadow, stared at Tianxuan, with endless emotions churning in them.

"Indeed." Tian Xuan did not deny this. "Liu Ji is a man of character. If Xiao He, Cao Shen, Zhou Bo and others are only assistants, then Liu Ji has the talent of a monarch. Of course, I have to be on guard against him."

"I see."

Tianxuan was very possessive and did not allow Yanfei, Yueshen, Zinu, and Shao Siming to have too much contact with his subordinates. Therefore, Yueshen had only met Liu Ji a few times, and only after hearing Tianxuan's evaluation of Liu Ji did Yueshen understand.

"By the way, aren't you going to do something?" After resolving the doubts in her heart, the Moon Goddess looked at Tianxuan with her beautiful eyes, her breath as sweet as orchid.

"Here?" There are statues of Taoist Hongjun and the Three Pure Ones enshrined in the Xuanyuan Hall. Tianxuan was really shocked when he heard what Yueshen said.

"Is it not possible?" Yueshen sat up straight in Tianxuan's arms, her head only a few inches away from Tianxuan, "Don't you think it's exciting here?" As she spoke, Yueshen's face was full of resentment, "During this period, my sister has been guarding against me and not giving me the opportunity to cheat. Today, she has her period, and I can't let her continue to occupy you!"
