The Great Dao Golden List, Me! The Supreme Martial God Exposed – Chapter 63

Chapter 63: 500,000 Strong Army, Queen of Bai Yue

The next day.

Zhangtai Palace.

As the grand court session ended, an astonishing piece of news spread rapidly.

Ying Zheng dispatched General Tu Sui, leading an army of 500,000, to conquer Bai Yue in five divisions. One division would attack Dong’ou and Minyue, two divisions would attack Nanyue, and the remaining two divisions would attack Xiou.

As the saying goes, before the army moves, provisions must come first.

With the implementation of the plan to conquer Bai Yue, the entire imperial machine began to operate, revealing its formidable power.

◈◈◈

Martial King’s Residence.

The sun was high in the sky.

Zhao Wu woke up naturally, leisurely stretching, and with Yan Fei’s help, he changed his clothes, washed up, and got out of bed.

Yan Fei, Yan Lingji, Mingzhu, and others had returned to the Martial King’s Residence after eliminating the Wolf Clan.

They had been working hard outside, so upon returning to the Martial King’s Residence, Zhao Wu rewarded them handsomely.

“Your Highness.”

At this moment, Mingzhu, carrying a cup of lotus seed soup, approached with a fragrant breeze, her steps graceful.

She sat beside Zhao Wu, picked up a spoon, gently blew on it, and then fed it to Zhao Wu’s mouth, while reporting:

“Your Highness, during the morning court today, His Majesty decided to appoint Tu Sui as general and send 500,000 troops to attack Bai Yue.”

“Bai Yue is full of mountains and forests, with miasma everywhere. Tu Sui’s army will have a hard time adapting and is bound to be defeated.”

Zhao Wu couldn’t help but think of Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s three campaigns against Bai Yue in his past life.

Although he eventually succeeded in conquering Bai Yue, the initial battles were exceptionally brutal, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers lost, and even Tu Sui was killed in action.

“Let Qing’er and Mei’er lead Bai Yue to surrender, and at the same time, have a marriage alliance with this king. That way, they can come over legitimately.”

Zhao Wu thought for a moment and instructed.

Qing’er and Mei’er’s full names were Hu Qing’er（Madam Hu） and Hu Mei’er（Consort Hu）.

They were once the daughters of the Fire Rain Manor in Bai Yue.

Because Liu Yi, the Left Censor of Han, coveted the treasures of the Fire Rain Manor, he colluded with the Three Wolves of Duanfa and destroyed the Fire Rain Manor.

The two of them were rescued by people sent by Zhao Wu.

Not only them, but also Nong Yu, who was still in swaddling clothes at the time.

Unlike the original story, Nong Yu was not the daughter of Hu Qing’er and Left Censor Li Kai, but rather their younger sister.

After they were rescued, they followed Zhao Wu, taking care of him while also receiving his guidance and practicing martial arts.

Five years ago, Zhao Wu had them return to Bai Yue and helped them take control of Bai Yue, making them the queens of Bai Yue.

“The two younger sisters, Qing’er and Mei’er, will surely be very happy to hear this.”

Mingzhu smiled faintly, with envy in her eyes.

If Hu Qing’er and Hu Mei’er married Zhao Wu as the Queen and Holy Maiden of Bai Yue, they would become Zhao Wu’s consorts.

It was truly a meteoric rise.

“It has been a while since I last saw them.”

Zhao Wu’s mind conjured up images of the two of them, and he suddenly missed their presence.

Mingzhu waved her hand, and a mechanical bird, enhanced by the Rat Talisman, flew over.

She wrote Zhao Wu’s instructions on a piece of paper and then sent the mechanical bird to Bai Yue.

◈◈◈

Bai Yue Royal Palace.

In the magnificent palace hall, two exquisitely beautiful figures stood calmly, one on the left and one on the right, their gazes deep as they looked towards the north.

The woman on the left wore a long, pinkish-white dress, and through the sheer fabric, one could vaguely see the clothes underneath. Her bewitching eyes were soft and alluring.

Her eyebrows revealed a sense of charm, her figure was graceful, and her skin was as white as jade, with a pinkish-white glow.

She looked at the woman on the right with her gentle and watery eyes, blinking slightly, exuding charm, and her voice was sweet and pleasant:

“Sister, what do you think the young master is doing now?”

“Sister Lingji, Sister Mingzhu…”

Hu Qing’er’s voice was soft, her temperament gentle and quiet. She wore a crown and royal robes, exuding nobility amidst her tranquility.

Her skin was fair and delicate, and although she wore dignified attire, it could not hide her alluring figure and her astonishing curves.

She and her younger sister, Hu Mei’er, stood together like twin lotus flowers, breathtakingly beautiful.

Hu Mei’er was slightly stunned by her sister Hu Qing’er’s words, not expecting her usually dignified and gentle sister to make such a joke.

“Do you think the young master misses us?”

Hu Mei’er continued to ask, her eyes captivating and her figure proud. Although she was the younger sister, she was not at all inferior to her sister, and her figure was even more voluptuous.

“The young master is busy with countless affairs, how could he have time to miss us…”

Hu Qing’er’s beautiful eyes were filled with resentment, but before she could finish her sentence, a mechanical bird flew down from the sky, landing directly in front of the two of them.

“It’s a messenger mechanical bird, the young master must miss us!”

Hu Mei’er’s captivating eyes were full of joy, and she quickly picked up the mechanical bird and took out the message inside.

“Did the young master send a message?”

◈◈◈

The resentment in Hu Qing’er’s eyes had long since vanished, replaced by anticipation and nervousness, as she asked somewhat anxiously.

“His Majesty the First Emperor is sending troops to attack Bai Yue, and the young master wants us to surrender.”

Hu Mei’er suppressed the excitement and joy in her heart and said to her sister Hu Qing’er.

There was only one queen of Bai Yue, and that was her sister, Hu Qing’er.

And she was the Holy Maiden of Bai Yue.

“Oh!”

Hu Qing’er nodded slightly, the anticipation in her heart immediately turning into deep disappointment. It turned out they were being asked to surrender.

They were, after all, brought to power by Zhao Wu.

They had no objections to whatever Zhao Wu wanted them to do.

What disappointed her was that Zhao Wu didn’t miss them.

“Hehe, the young master is not just asking us to surrender.”

Seeing her sister’s disappointed expression, Hu Mei’er smiled mischievously, like a little fox, and said: “The young master wants us to marry him as the Queen and Holy Maiden of Bai Yue!”

“What? A marriage alliance?”

Hu Qing’er’s eyes widened, stunned by the enormous surprise.

She had never thought that she could become Zhao Wu’s consort.

As long as she could stay by Zhao Wu’s side, even as a bed warmer, she would be content.

“You’re not joking, are you?”

Hu Qing’er stared intently at Hu Mei’er, somewhat nervous, afraid that Hu Mei’er would tell her that everything was just a joke.

“I’m not joking, it’s absolutely true. The young master really wants to marry us!”

Hu Mei’er handed the message to Hu Qing’er, smiling brightly.

“Really, the young master is so good to us.”

Hu Qing’er was filled with excitement, and she quickly said: “Let’s pack up quickly. We’ll set off immediately to Xianyang to meet His Majesty the First Emperor and express our intention to surrender and form a marriage alliance.”

“I think my sister is just eager to see the young master.”

Hu Mei’er launched a surprise attack, grabbing Hu Qing’er’s vital spot and laughing wickedly.

“Ah!”

Hu Qing’er exclaimed, scolding: “You hussy, don’t you miss the young master?”

Hu Qing’er pounced on Hu Mei’er.

After the two of them played around for a while, they summoned the civil and military officials of Bai Yue and told them about their plan to surrender to Great Qin and form a marriage alliance with the Martial King.

Because of Zhao Wu’s secret help, Bai Yue had long become their sole domain, and no one dared to object.

After giving their instructions, Hu Qing’er and Hu Mei’er led their subordinates and rushed to Xianyang.

◈◈◈

Two days later.

Xianyang.

Zhangtai Palace.

Ying Zheng sat on the dragon throne, wearing a black dragon robe and a twelve-tassel crown, an intangible majesty enveloping the entire hall.

Right Chancellor Feng Quji reported: “Your Majesty, the provisions for the southern campaign against Bai Yue are ready, and General Tu’s army is preparing to depart…”

The provisions and logistics for an army of 500,000 were astronomical, involving all aspects.

War was not just a contest of combat power but more of a contest of logistics and national strength.

“Report.”

Just then, a eunuch’s voice came from outside.

“Your Majesty, General Zhang Han requests an audience for an urgent matter.”

“Summon him.”

Ying Zheng said.

Clatter, clatter.

Zhang Han, wearing armor, walked into the hall with steady steps and bowed to Ying Zheng: “This general pays his respects to Your Majesty.”

“What is it?”

Ying Zheng spoke calmly, his voice tranquil, yet like a towering mountain, his intangible majesty suffocating.

Zhang Han did not dare to delay and quickly reported:

“Your Majesty, this humble subject has discovered that the Queen of Bai Yue and the Holy Maiden of Bai Yue have arrived in Xianyang. After inquiring, I found out that they wish to meet Your Majesty to express their submission.”
