Chapter Thirty-seven 

Tuoba Xin, Ying Shimin and Ying Yong went to their separate rooms for rest. Ying Yong while in her room finally decide on a plan of tempting the rabbit to come into her trap. From the overall evidence that Ying Yong has on hand, she knew that she could not touch the third princess in any way. So, the only way to bring Ying Luo down is to tempt her into launching a coup.

After all, if Qing started to use poison in their river, Ying Yong knew that Ying Luo is awfully close to the start of launching her coup. Ying Yong issue orders for Moon to go back to XuanYang in the fastest way possible. Within one month, Ying Yong will attack the ancestor place of the current Qing royal family. Ying Yong estimates the timing of everything will fit perfectly into her plan.

Ying Yong plan was for moon to inform Ying Xiong to "died" suddenly. And Ying Zhen in his grief for his brother falls sick seriously and will sent out an edict for the crown prince to go back to XuanYang to ascend to the throne. Ying Yong knew fully well on how greedy humans could get up to. Especially Ying Yong also knew Ying Luo well on the information that she has on her. It was well known in XuanYang that Ying Luo is of the mentality that females are could be emperors as long as they are capable.

Thus, Ying Yong knew that if Ying Zhen is seriously sick. XuanYang is without the crown prince and the god of battle that is her father. Ying Luo will definitely launch an attempt at a coup. Although without the god of battle that is her father, other countries may be tempted to attack Qin. But Ying Yong knew that she has no choice if she wanted to at one go to pull the serious bad roots out of the Qin empire. Including the fact that Ying Yong knew that Ying Xiong have placed capable assistant generals at the north, south, east entrance of Qin. Ying Yong has sufficient confidence that these assistant generals will be able to stand up to the pressure of keeping their borders secure. But even are these borders fall, it is still a long way to affect XuanYang as there were plenty of cities in between to block.

Ying Yong knew from her spies in Yanbei is that there is a convenient wall through a range of mountains that will lessen the time needed for the Qing to get to Shangan. And Shangan is too important to lose as there is Xian Xi after that and if two states are lost, it will mean a direct access to XuanYang. Ying Yong knew fully well that this world is too big for her spies to be everywhere. So, in preparation for the eventuality that the Qing armies is near Shangan. That is why Ying Yong know she need to attack the Qing royal family ancestor place.

Ying Yong had issued orders for additional troops from Xian Xi to come and replace the troops that she will use for her expedition. After all Xian Xi is also another state that is under Ying Yong's control. Ying Yong will force Ying Shimin to oversee the potential battle of Shangan. Ying Yong estimates one month to be the perfect time for launching her expedition as one month will be more than enough for things in XuanYang to happen. Since the Xiongnu will not attack and even if the Qing launched a ten thousand army, once the news of their ancestor place was attack, they will definitely pulled back from Shangan. After all, ever since Ying Yong knew of the path through the range of mountains Taishan, that Qing could use to attack Qin. Ying Yong had already issue orders for her people to create her own path through Taishan that they could use to attack Qing ancestor place. Along with creating the path through Taishan, Ying Yong had given orders for a fleet of three thousand troops of elite light soilders to be trained. Ying Yong also have created secret paths from her city master residence and the army base to the start of the secret path. Ying Yong also created a horse farm for breeding horses for army uses at the start of the secret path. Ying Yong have done all of this in hopes of secretly sending all the elite troops out of Shangan without any spies in the city detecting.

Ying Yong falls asleep after rethinking over all details of her plans and found there should not be any loopholes. The only thing left is for Ying Yong to inform Ying Shimin to reinvent himself into another identify if he still wants to stay in Shangan. In fifteen days, another "Ying Shimin" need to take his own sweet time to proceed to Xuanyang.

Ying Yong rarely comes to the states that is under her control. So, all of the city master residences in all of her states were built using the technology of this world. it was only the general residence in XuanYang that Ying Yong had refurbish it with all the modern technology she could think up of in this world.

Ying Yong is really sleepy as she still has not recover from using transport to come from XuanYang to Shangan even after eating her medicine. As for Ying Yong's tiger, she was also subject to the same exhaustion. So that is why both owner and tiger did not notice the fact that someone had creep up to their room. A pill was thrown into the room from a hole in the window. A smoke billow out from the dissolved pill and push Ying Yong and her tiger into deeper sleep. After the person outside is certain that Ying Yong and the tiger should be deep in sleep, he came creeping in.
