Just as Li Chengtian was immersed in his dreams for the future, he suddenly found himself no longer in the center of the lake, but beside the Imperial Study.

It turned out that he had been so focused on his thoughts that he had unknowingly teleported here.

Looking at the familiar scene before him, Li Chengtian smiled slightly.

Mingyue Xin looked at Li Chengtian with a worried expression and asked anxiously:

"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Her voice was full of concern and worry.

Li Chengtian looked at Mingyue Xin, smiled, shook his head, and said gently:

"I'm fine, don't worry. I just made a breakthrough, which is why I made some noise."

However, when Li Chengtian saw the bloodstains on Mingyue Xin's lips, he immediately understood what had happened.

He guessed that Mingyue Xin must have heard the commotion of his breakthrough and was worried about his safety, which is why she was injured by his shockwave.

Thinking of this, a warm feeling welled up in Li Chengtian's heart.

He quickly walked up to Mingyue Xin, reached out his hand, and injected demonic energy into her body to help heal her injuries.

After a while, Li Chengtian withdrew his hand and whispered to Mingyue:

"It's all better now. Don't be so impulsive next time. No one in this world can hurt me."

Mingyue Xin listened to Li Chengtian's instructions and nodded obediently, replying, "Your Majesty, I understand." Her eyes revealed a hint of happiness and contentment.

Li Chengtian gazed at Mingyue Xin's captivating figure and exquisite face, and his heart stirred.

Without hesitation, he walked to Mingyuexin's side, gently picked her up, and whispered:

"We still have some time, let's go and take a break."

Mingyue Xin blushed slightly as she leaned against Li Chengtian's chest, feeling his warm embrace, her heart filled with sweetness.

They entered the palace together and enjoyed a peaceful time together.

Upon hearing Li Chengtian's words, Mingyue Xin blushed, nodded gently, and hummed in agreement.

Then Li Chengtian, carrying Mingyue Xin, disappeared from the Imperial Study.

Chapter 65 Li Qian, Li Kun, and the Massacre of Shangshan Hu of Northern Qi

The next day, as dawn broke, Li Chengtian had just stepped out of his palace.

Upon seeing Han Diaosi, he immediately gave the following instructions:

"Go and summon Minister Lin and Minister Fan to the Imperial Study to see me."

Just after Li Chengtian finished speaking, his aura suddenly erupted, spreading outwards like a raging storm.

Han Diaosi immediately felt an extremely powerful pressure coming towards him, and he took five steps back before slowly stopping.

Han Diaosi looked at Li Chengtian with a look of horror, as if he had seen a ghost.

He wondered to himself, just how much strength his master was hiding?

How could it suddenly become so powerful?

Li Chengtian also noticed the abnormality. He realized that he had not been able to control his aura while speaking, causing some of his power to be accidentally revealed, which forced the unsuspecting Han Diaosi to retreat.

He waved his hand somewhat awkwardly and said:

"Go down!"

When Han Diaosi heard Li Chengtian say this, although he was puzzled, he did not dare to ask any more questions.

He nodded respectfully, then turned and left to carry out the orders.

After Han Diaosi left, Li Chengtian stood there, quietly looking at the palace, his eyes revealing a trace of worry and contemplation.

After a while, he took a deep breath and then slowly walked towards the Imperial Study.

Not long after Li Chengtian arrived at the Imperial Study, Han Diaosi brought Lin Xiang and Fan Jian there.

Upon entering the imperial study and seeing Li Chengtian, the three immediately knelt and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

Li Chengtian waved his hand and said, "Get up!"

The three of them slowly stood up. The moment Lin Xiang and Fan Jian raised their heads to look at Li Chengtian, they immediately sensed that Li Chengtian was different, but they couldn't quite put their finger on what the difference was.

Li Chengtian noticed the unusual behavior between the two and had some guesses in his mind. After all, when he fought Mingyue Xin last night, Mingyue Xin said she felt he had changed.

But Li Chengtian didn't intend to pay attention to it. He stood up and walked towards the lake.

When Lin Xiang and Fan Jian saw Li Chengtian, who remained silent, they exchanged a glance and did not ask him what business he had with them. They simply followed Li Chengtian silently to the lakeside.

After reaching the lakeside, Li Chengtian stopped and looked at the lake, seemingly deep in thought.

Lin Xiang and Fan Jianze stood respectfully to the side, waiting for Li Chengtian to speak.

After a while, Li Chengtian finally spoke, "I summoned you here because I want to discuss something with you."

Upon hearing Li Chengtian's words, both Lin Xiang and Fan Jian showed expressions of attentive listening.

Li Chengtian continued, "I have decided to implement reforms to strengthen the nation and improve people's livelihoods."

Lin Xiang and Fan Jian exchanged a glance, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.

They knew that reform meant breaking the existing power structure and would inevitably provoke opposition from some people.

However, they also understand that only through reform can the country achieve prosperity and strength.

Lin Xiang was the first to express his opinion: "Your Majesty is wise, and we are willing to fully support Your Majesty's reform plan."

Fan Jian echoed, "Your Majesty, rest assured, as long as it benefits the country's development, we are willing to serve you with utmost loyalty."

Li Chengtian nodded, looking at the two with satisfaction.

He then elaborated on his reform plan, covering various aspects including agriculture, commerce, and education.

Lin Xiang and Fan Jian listened attentively and offered suggestions from time to time.

Finally, Li Chengtian concluded:

"This reform is related to the future of the country and requires our joint efforts. We hope you can actively cooperate to promote the smooth implementation of the reform."

Lin Xiang and Fan Jianli immediately expressed their determination to do their utmost.

Thus, a far-reaching reform was launched.

After another dozen or so breaths, Li Chengtian spoke again:

"Lord Fan, if I want to start a national war, how quickly can your Ministry of Revenue prepare the necessary grain and fodder?"

After listening to Li Chengtian's words, Fan Jian thought for a moment and then said:

"Your Majesty, if it were a national war, our Ministry of Revenue would need at least half a month to prepare the provisions."

Upon hearing this, a resolute glint flashed in Li Chengtian's eyes. After a moment of contemplation, he said with a solemn expression:

"Alright, half a month is enough time. Go and prepare provisions immediately. I will personally lead the expedition to destroy Northern Qi in half a month."

When Lin Xiang heard that Li Chengtian was going to personally lead the expedition, he was shocked and quickly stepped forward. Just as he was about to speak to persuade him, Li Chengtian waved his hand to interrupt him.

"Prime Minister Lin, you don't need to persuade me. My mind is made up."

"On this expedition, I will personally lead the army to wipe out Northern Qi!"

Li Chengtian's voice was firm and powerful, revealing an unwavering determination.

Lin Xiang knew the Emperor's temperament well and knew he couldn't change his decision, but he still couldn't help feeling a little worried.

He hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help saying: Seven

"Your Majesty, your health is of utmost importance; it is not appropriate for you to personally go to the battlefield..."

However, Li Chengtian interrupted him again: Two

"Prime Minister Lin, my mind is made up, there is no need for further words."

When I personally lead the expedition, all affairs of the court, large and small, will be handled by you.

Although Lin Xiang remained worried after hearing Li Chengtian's words, he understood that the Emperor's mind was made up, so he respectfully replied: Six

"The minister obeys the order."

Seeing Lin Xiang's attitude, Li Chengtian nodded in satisfaction, a hint of confidence and authority flashing in his eyes.

He continued: Eight

"Prime Minister Lin need not worry. With my strength, no one in this world can harm me."

Lin Xiang and Fan Jian exchanged a glance, and both saw worry in each other's eyes.

They knew the emperor was highly skilled in martial arts, but war is full of variables, and anything could happen.

However, faced with the emperor's resolute attitude, they could only silently pray that everything would go smoothly.

Afterwards, Prime Minister Lin and Fan Jian slowly walked out of the Imperial Study. Their steps were heavy and slow, as if they were carrying a heavy burden.

Three days later, at the border between Nanqing and Beiqi.

Fan Xian led the Nanqing delegation to this place.
