"Oh?"
Zhao Huai's thoughts wandered, and he momentarily lost focus. Hearing Yin Nanyu's answer, he couldn't help but feel surprised.
He wondered why she had such confidence.
When Yin Nanyu's cold gaze fell on Zhao Huai, it wasn't as severe as before, and became somewhat gentler. She explained:
"There are three reasons. First, the Emperor of Xia appointed officials from humble families, starting a wave of civil reform, which successfully angered many aristocratic families."
"Second, because of the famine in the south, the Imperial Court drastically reduced the number of border troops, using the surplus supplies to help the starving people. If the Northern Alien Races learn of this, they will certainly not let this opportunity slip away and will advance towards the southern border again. This would be a great advantage for both the Northern Alien Races and Yan Country."
