Princess Ziyues current mood is truly indescribable!

Mixed feelings abound!

Originally, she came with sincerity, wanting to enlist Lin Beifans help and advice.

Now that he has agreed, why doesnt she feel any joy?

She cant help but feel that he is shameless and unreliable!

Should I trust someone who can be bought for a million?

Should I give him an important role?

Princess Ziyue is uncertain.

Well, lets take it step by step!

At this moment, Lin Beifan held a white feather fan in his hand and gently fanned the air, exuding an air of military advisor like Zhuge Liang.

Princess, speak up. This military advisor is all ears! he said.

Princess Ziyue put aside her jumbled thoughts and said, Now, we have decided to shift our focus to the western region of Wu, preparing to develop quietly there and wait for the right opportunity! But we are at a loss on how to proceed. Please advise me, military advisor!

Lin Beifan smiled and said, You can continue spreading your teachings as before, using your methods of trickery to deceive the people. I guarantee youll quickly develop a group of followers!

That was what I initially considered! However, such a group is too unstable and could collapse at any time! Princess Ziyue sighed. Military advisor, we want a strong and loyal army with firm beliefs that can win battles!

It seems you have remembered what I said earlier. It will be easier from here on!

First, lets address the issue of belief!

Lin Beifan cleared his throat. Belief, in essence, is about making them understand who they are fighting for and why they are fighting. They need to know what they can gain from their efforts. Once this issue is resolved, their belief will be firm. Even in the face of future challenges, their faith and spirit will remain unshaken!

Please teach me, Military Advisor! Princess Ziyue humbly asked.

Lets first clarify the first question: Who should they fight for?

They should fight for our Slanted Moon Dynasty Princess Ziyue replied weakly.

Wrong! Why should they? Lin Beifans voice thundered.

People are inherently selfish. Why should they fight for your Slanted Moon Dynasty? What does it have to do with them?

Remember, you aim to attract the people within the Great Wu Territory and develop armed forces there! These people are the inhabitants of Great Wu. Why should they abandon their own lives and follow you to risk their lives?

If it were you, would you foolishly join in?

Of course not! Princess Ziyue vigorously shook her head.

Therefore, Ill tell you that they will only fight for themselves. Only when they clearly understand that the rewards they will gain from their efforts far surpass what they had before, will they join your cause!

Princess Ziyue nodded thoughtfully. Youre right!

Now, onto the second question: Why should they fight?

Why should they fight? Princess Ziyue pondered and replied,

To have enough food, to have money to spend, to live a good life. These should be the reasons!

So, what is the foundation for all of this? Lin Beifan asked.

What could it be Princess Ziyue puzzledly asked.

Stupid! You cant understand such a simple truth. Of course, its the land!

Lin Beifan impatiently said, For farmers, or for any ordinary people, the most important thing is undoubtedly land! With land, they can cultivate crops and have food to eat! With land, they can sell their harvest and earn money to spend! With land, they can seek a wife and live a comfortable life with a family!

The foundation of all this is, of course, the land! With land, they can survive! With land, their lives have direction! With land, they will risk their lives to follow you! Am I right?

Yes, yes, absolutely right! Princess Ziyue nodded repeatedly.

Once this problem is solved, the third question becomes much simpler! Let me ask you, if they follow you and put in efforts, what should be their greatest reward?

Land! Princess Ziyue answered without hesitation.

Thats right, its land!

Lin Beifan clapped his hands and laughed. So, as long as you promise that by following you, they will receive land as a reward! The greater their contributions, the more land they will receive! They will certainly be willing to risk their lives for you! Because they have nothing left, why not take a chance? Who knows, they might achieve a better future? This is their belief!

Princess Ziyue was extremely excited. The Military Advisors words are absolutely right!

But then she frowned and said with concern, But we dont have any land!

Stupid, cant we take it by force? Lin Beifan snapped impatiently. The entire western region of Wu is such a large area, are you afraid there is no land? The entire Dayue Dynasty has so much land, isnt it enough to distribute? You just need to conquer it, and then youll have land. Isnt that the goal youve always had?

Yes! Princess Ziyue became excited once again.

Lin Beifan smiled confidently. For the sake of land, they will unleash an unprecedented fighting force! Because they know that winning means gaining land, and losing means having nothing! Any force that opposes them is essentially depriving them of their land and taking away all their hopes. Do you think they will fight to the death?

Absolutely! Princess Ziyue grew even more excited.

This is their belief, a true and unshakable belief!

Yes, yes! Princess Ziyue nodded fervently.

In addition, there is another tremendous benefit!

Lin Beifan chuckled, If you make a name for yourselves, many farmers will surely come seeking land! As a result, your forces will grow larger and stronger until

Lin Beifan spread his arms and exclaimed excitedly, A spark ignites a prairie fire, unstoppable!

Mmm! Princess Ziyue, already excited, closed her eyes.

She was already envisioning this scene!

For the first time, she felt that her hope for revenge and restoration of the country was so close!

She realized that all of this was brought by the man before her!

Princess Ziyue stood up and gave a slight bow. Thank you so much for teaching me, Military Advisor!

Lin Beifan humbly smiled and said, Princess, we are all on the same side, no need for such formalities!

As she looked at Lin Beifans gentle and confident smiling face, Princess Ziyue was momentarily lost in thought.

She thought about how over these years, she had shouldered a heavy burden and labored tirelessly for the cause of revenge and restoration. However, her abilities were limited, often feeling mentally and physically exhausted, and the rewards were meager.

She felt weary and lost.

It was only after encountering this man that she found new hope.

Suddenly, a sense of security rose in her heart.

I still have to thank you! Princess Ziyue expressed her gratitude once again.

If it werent for your guidance, Advisor, we might have taken many detours and who knows when we would have succeeded? Your great kindness and teachings are unforgettable!

If you insist on thanking me, then give me a little bit of money. I truly wont mind! Lin Beifan winked.

The corner of Princess Ziyues mouth twitched. Advisor, lets continue with our previous topic!

Alright, lets continue! Lin Beifan cleared his throat and continued, Thats why I suggest you choose the land of Wuxi!

Although the land in Wuxi is vast, it is poor and resources are scarce, resulting in a difficult life for the common people! This is the time to implement benevolent governance and provide the people with a way out. However, the Duke of Wuxi, driven by his own ambitions, has disregarded everything and mobilized millions of troops! The people have suffered under the rule of the King of Wuxi for too long!

Therefore, when you go there to develop, incentivize the common people with land, and you will undoubtedly receive a tremendous response! Coupled with food and monetary rewards, you can quickly build up a formidable force!

Furthermore, you can also employ the persuasive methods you used before! By manipulating the belief in the divine will, promising the distribution of land after the success of the cause, you will surely attract countless followers

Half an hour quickly passed.

Lin Beifan spoke tirelessly, while Princess Ziyue listened attentively, captivated by his words and gaining profound insights.

Every word spoken by Lin Beifan was reasonable and thought-provoking!

It thoroughly cleansed her mind and thoughts!

It also filled her with confidence!

It felt as if as long as she followed Lin Beifans words, success was not just a possibility but a certainty!

If it didnt succeed, it wouldnt be due to the ineffectiveness of the method, but rather her own shortcomings!

Alright, lets stop here for today! Lin Beifan took a sip of his now cold tea.

So soon its over? Military Advisor, can we talk a bit more?

Princess Ziyue expressed some dissatisfaction.

Lin Beifans face turned serious. Princess, you must understand that greed leads to nothing but indigestion! I have imparted a lot of knowledge today, and you need to absorb it well in order to apply it effectively. Otherwise, it will be like swallowing dates without chewing, knowing the result but not the reason behind it, which will greatly diminish the effect. Once you have absorbed this knowledge, I will discuss new content with you!

Military Advisor speaks the truth. Ziyue has learned a lot!

Princess Ziyue stood up, slightly bowed, and smiled. Its getting late today, I will seek advice from the Military Advisor another day.

Princess, farewell. I wont accompany you! Lin Beifan smiled.

Princess Ziyue nodded with a smile. Military Advisor, we are on the same side, no need for such formalities!

After saying that, she put on a purple veil, turned her head, and left.

Wait, Princess! Lin Beifan called out.

Military Advisor, do you have any further instructions?

Princess Ziyue turned her head, smiling.

Princess, remember to bring more money next time! Lin Beifan said reluctantly.

Princess Ziyue:

Princess Ziyue didnt respond and silently left with her maid.

Feeling hopeful about her grand cause, her mood was exceptionally good, and as she passed by pedestrians, they nodded and paid their respects.

This led to some misunderstandings.

Miss Ziyue looks so happy!

Of course, she just met her beloved. How can she not be happy?

You mean the top scholar, Lin Beifan?

Exactly! I saw Miss Ziyue visiting the Lin Mansion just now. Its obvious that she met the top scholar! Its been almost an hour, and she left happily!

Oh no! Miss Ziyue has truly been taken by the top scholar. I have no chance anymore!

You never had a chance in the first place. Go dream your dreams!
