Qian Jiyun looked at him with a smile and reminded him.
"King De..."
Boss Yan has something to say about his mother, and he doesn't know whether he should scold her or not.
King De has some power, but so what? Can King De be able to defend the southern border with thousands of troops and horses?
That is the southern border, and there is the strongest enemy outside the border.
"Do you really think King De is reliable?" he asked.
"King De is unreliable. There are still eighteen villages on the border. There is no problem in guarding the southern border." Qian Jiyun said.
"Eighteen villages on the border?"
Boss Yan couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Doesn't this mean that King De will conquer the eighteen villages on the border? Then it would be better to let King De guard the southern border by himself.
No one in the eighteen villages on the border would submit to the royal family. Otherwise, after so many years, the people in the village should have been conquered long ago, right?
"Do you want to rely on King De to conquer the eighteen villages on the border, or do you want to send someone to do it secretly?"
He doesn't think King De has this ability. As for Qian Jiyun, if he really wants to go... Well, that's probably not possible, right?
"Do you have that confidence?"
"I……"
"It's easy to deal with other armies, but it's really difficult to handle the Eighteen Villages on the border. Jiyun, you... or you should think of other ways."
Before Qian Jiyun could speak, Boss Yan interrupted him again.
"The Northern Sichuan Army is in my hands. Now the southern border is still in your hands. Half of Kyoto's troops are in your and my hands. We can still give it a try. We don't have to control the eastern border."
"Ah."
Qian Jiyun raised his hand, touched his forehead, and chuckled.
"Brother, I may not have told you that King Anyang is Jiu Yue's adoptive father."
"ah?"
Boss Yan was stunned.
He had heard that King Anyang Antu had no children, so he always thought that no one would dare to pretend to be a descendant of King Anyang and take over the eighteen villages on the border.
Because everyone who wants to go is afraid that they will never come back.
"You just said that my sister-in-law is... who belongs to King Anyang?"
Did he hear it wrong? Or did Qian Jiyun say it wrong? Is An Jiuyue actually Antu's adopted daughter?
"I once heard my father say that there is a blank imperial edict in the hands of King Anyang. He can let King Anyang choose the person he trusts as his heir. That imperial edict will not be in the hands of his sister-in-law, right?"
"Um."
Qian Jiyun nodded towards him.
"Jiuyue is the new King Anyang. I have read the imperial decree. Now, can we discuss the next plan?"
"Then what are you waiting for? Come, let's discuss it quickly."
Boss Yan clasped his hands together, rubbed his palms vigorously, and sat next to Qian Jiyun.
"I can't wait for a long time. You don't know that what happened recently has made my head two big."
He can wait, but can the people affected by the disaster afford to wait? The key is that there are many places in the country where disasters occur, not just on the eastern border.
As an emperor, what could he do? If the person in power hadn't been his father, he would have really wanted to...
Forget it, it's useless to think about anything now, let's settle the matter at hand first.
"Let me tell you, I sent people to the eastern border, but it's really too chaotic there. I'm afraid that foreign aggression will start soon. If possible, Zhan Yun's army will have to withdraw from the southern border as soon as possible."
