The next day, the scorching sun hung high in the sky. The scorching sunlight made the ground slightly yellow, and the space seemed to be distorted by the steam.
Zhu Moxie and his group rode their horses through the mountain path of the canyon at a speed as fast as lightning.
Shang Ming, Dragon One, and the others were all covered in sweat. It was rare to see such scorching sunlight in Hebei.
Even internal experts like them couldn't release their internal strength to resist the heat all the time.
Shang Ming wiped the sweat off his forehead and turned to look at Zhu Moxie beside him, asking,""Young Master, do you really want to help the Hosokawa family take over Japan?”
One had to know that the Japanese were known for their craftiness. Even if he really helped them pacify the Yamana clan, he probably wouldn't be able to get the remaining 30 million taels.
It was impossible for Great Ming to fall out with the coastal countries for a mere thirty million taels of silver. That was obviously not worth it.
Shang Ming didn't believe that the Crown Prince hadn't thought of this, so he was curious as to why he had agreed to the Japanese.
Hearing this, Zhu Moxie gave a strange smile, and his eyes flashed with a trace of light.""Of course we'll take down the Japanese, but…"
At this point, Zhu Moxie deliberately dragged out the last syllable to keep Shang Ming in suspense.
Then, he said confidently,""When Great Ming sends out his troops, it will be the time when the East Ocean Nation becomes the East Ocean Prefecture!”
Shang Ming's body trembled when he heard that, and he almost fell off his horse.
His words would not stop until they shocked people to death. He did not expect the Crown Prince's thoughts to be so earth-shattering.
He actually wanted to be the first emperor to expand his territory!
In the thousands of years of Huaxia, only a few emperors had been able to do this.
Each of them had established a great cause that would never be lifted up, leaving their names in history and leaving their names in the annals of time.
However, this goal could not be achieved just because he wanted to.
During the period of the Tang Empire, Heavenly Khan Li Shimin had gone on multiple expeditions to small kingdoms like Goguryeo, but all of them ended in failure due to various reasons.
It was easy to punish a small country, but it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens to attack the next country.
An expedition was a long and arduous journey of killing. The soldiers were all physically and mentally exhausted. Moreover, it was common for them to not adapt to the environment in other people's territory.
Moreover, the local natives could use their familiarity with the geography to gain a huge advantage. They could often trap an army of ten thousand with just a few hundred people.
" This…Your Highness the Crown Prince…Aren't you lacking in consideration…"
Shang Ming put away the shock in his heart and didn't expose Zhu Moxie's whimsical thoughts. He only reminded him a little.
After all, no matter how monstrous this Crown Prince was, he was only good at dealing with human nature and politics. He had an understanding of things like treatment.
He had watched him grow up and naturally knew that he had never seen the battlefield before. He had never even read the military books.
Riding the battlefield was not on the same level as confronting the court.
Zhu Moxie knew very well what Shang Ming was thinking. Other than the little fairy Tian Yi in his mind, anyone else would think that he was crazy.
At that moment, he was too lazy to explain anything. He only said indifferently,"You've followed me for ten years, so you should know very well that I never fight a battle that I don't have a chance of winning.”
Shang Ming was slightly shocked, but he immediately turned back to his calm and pretentious old man.
Indeed, he had followed Zhu Moxie for ten years and worked for him. Every time, it was the Crown Prince who had planned everything flawlessly. There had never been a single mistake.
Although the Crown Prince stood proudly in the clouds, he was not an arrogant person. He must have his own plans for making such a decision.
As a eunuch slave, he only needed to obediently do things for his master.
Just as the atmosphere was getting cold and cheerless, a long-lost voice rang out in Zhu Moxie's mind.
"Ding…congratulations on completing the achievement 'Wealth in the Waist'. The reward is 10000 points and the reward is the investigative skill. You can see through all illusions and know yourself and your enemy. Please work hard and complete more achievements!”
Zhu Moxie's pupils contracted slightly. The plane store that had not responded for nearly ten years actually gave out a notification this time.
What made Zhu Moxie not know whether to laugh or cry was that he had clearly not done anything. He had only extorted 20 million taels of silver, yet he had completed some unwarranted achievement and obtained a full 10,000 points.
Back then, for the first phase of the side mission, he had killed Wang Zhi, the accomplice of Imperial Concubine Wan, and obtained 1,000 points. He had been terrified and calculated for a long time before he could do it.
He didn't expect that because of his anger, he would beat up the Japanese. Not only did he get ten million dollars and become a real tycoon, but he also got 10,000 points for nothing. It was a double blessing.
"Sure enough…good people get good rewards…"
The corner of Zhu Moxie's mouth curled up slightly as he muttered in a voice as thin as a mosquito's thread.
In fact, he was not a good person who would sacrifice himself for others. He was at most a normal person with ordinary emotions.
At most, he could only be considered an evil person. He did things according to his preferences, regardless of how others viewed him.
However, he had done a good deed unintentionally this time and even obtained 10,000 points. Zhu Moxie secretly decided that he would learn from Lei Feng in the future and improve every day.
" Oh…I'm so sleepy…I didn't sleep enough. I'll look for you later…"
Hearing Tianyi's long-lost soft and cute loli voice, Zhu Moxie also felt a little cordial. This little girl was his only confidant in this big Ming.
Hearing her sleepy voice, he smiled helplessly. This girl had slept for ten years and still hadn't slept enough.
As expected, immortals and mortals had different views on time.
Zhu Moxie smiled and shook his head. He didn't enter the space of consciousness to look for her.
"Young Master! Be careful!"
"Hiss…"
Shang Ming's exclamation and the horse's roar immediately brought Zhu Moxie back to his senses.
He opened his eyes and saw that less than a meter away, a young girl in yellow was staring at the galloping horse with her eyes wide open. She was scared silly.
"F * ck, stop!"
Zhu Moxie cursed and hurriedly pulled the reins. However, he was already very close to the girl and could not stop at all.
