At the critical moment, these people would become the key to his victory.

He did not expect that his previous trip to the capital would be so rewarding.

The Imperial Advisor, who had always been mysterious and indifferent to court affairs, actually came to him.

As expected, Li Xiao could help him seize the world!

“Yes.” Li Xiao replied.

“Master has already sent me a message regarding this matter.”

“The war will start after winter. It shouldn’t be too late to prepare now.

However, before the Nangong Army retreated, their weapons and armors were all thrown away. “These things…” Li Xiao said with a difficult expression. He bowed and cupped his hands at the Prince Anyang.

It was already October. After the last batch of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and peppers were harvested, there was nothing much to do.

The previous arrangement was to let the Nangong Army process these crops in the workshop during the winter.

But now that the plan had changed, it was possible to store all the items without processing them.

Especially potatoes and sweet potatoes.

After the imperial court requisitioned food and compensated them with a large amount of food, these things could be used as staple food for storage.

Prince Anyang understood.

“This is easy. I can give priority to the Nangong Army’s armaments.”

“How about this?” Prince Anyang thought for a moment and said, “I’ll arrange for 6,000 sets of weapons and armor today and send them to the various manors within five days.”

No matter which path they took to enter the capital, the Nangong Army was the key to his victory.

At this time, even if he did not have enough military equipment, he had to prioritize the supply of the Nangong Army.

Prince Anyang had already thought it through. These six thousand sets of armaments would first be transferred from his troops.

After that, he would think of a way to help the other soldiers make up for it.

“Thank you, Your Highness!” Li Xiao hurriedly thanked him.

Prince Anyang smiled. “There’s no need to be so polite.”

” Right, Consort Shu…” Prince Anyang suddenly asked Li Xiao.

“Oh, thank you for your concern, Your Highness. My sister is doing very well now.”

Prince Anyang smiled. “That’s good. My mother misses Consort Shu very much. She said that once she left, she had fewer people to talk to in the palace and her days are boring.”

A rare smile appeared on Li Xiao’s face.

“My sister also mentioned the Imperial Consort before.”

“In the future, when Your Highness enters the capital, the Imperial Consort will not feel bored.” Li Xiao said again.

Prince Anyang smiled again.

“That might not be the case. When my mother heard about Consort Shu, she was very envious. She even mentioned it to me, saying that she also wants to leave the palace in the future and live in Daishi Village.”

Li Xiao was stunned.

“If the Imperial Consort doesn’t mind, we welcome Her Highness.” He smiled and agreed.

Although they did not know if Prince Anyang was telling the truth, it was a great gift for their family to host the Imperial Consort.

With her around, it was also a layer of protection for the Liu family.

Prince Anyang’s words were most likely to calm him down.

“Hahahaha…” Prince Anyang laughed heartily.

He stepped forward and patted Li Xiao’s shoulder.

“Let’s go, accompany me to the military camp.”

He was going to take a look at the situation after he came to Anyang County.

“Yes, Your Highness!” Li Xiao cupped his fists and replied.

Then, he brought Xiao Yang and Prince Anyang out of the door.

After leaving the Imperial Residence, Prince Anyang and Li Xiao rode in the same carriage.

Seeing that Li Xiao did not speak, Prince Anyang suddenly looked at Li Xiao.

He noticed that the scar on his face had been covered up. Unless he looked closely, he could not see the mark at all. He was a little surprised.

“Did Ms. Lin say when they would return to Qingshi Town?” asked Li Xiao.

Thinking of Lin Xiaoyue, Prince Anyang was amazed.

That woman was truly extraordinary.

Before this, he thought that she was already powerful because she could do business and had the talent to govern the world.

After that, she single-handedly defeated Xu Yan and helped the Great Yan reduce the conditions of the peace negotiations by thirty percent.

Now, she was in charge of compiling the Arithmetic Book.

And…she was actually the granddaughter of the Imperial Advisor.

Yes, when he received the letter from the Imperial Advisor and learned of this news, he was shocked.

But soon after, he figured it all out.

No wonder Ms. Lin had such talent. Since she was the granddaughter of the Imperial Advisor, everything made sense.

Also, he really had to thank the couple.

Without them, the Imperial Advisor would not have approached him.

“Not yet.” Li Xiao replied. At the same time, he frowned.

He and his wife wrote to each other every day, but the two places were far away, so there was a delay in the letters.

The letter he received now said that she was still busy compiling the Arithmetic Book.

The progress had started to slow down. The one-month deadline that they had originally agreed on might have to be postponed.

Naturally, he did not agree. He had already replied to the letter, saying that he would go to the capital to pick her up in advance.

At that time, even if it was delayed for a while, he would stay there to accompany her..
