"Speak."

What Li Chen needs now is the advice of a seasoned veteran like Su Zhen Ting, someone with rich experience and an extremely long-term strategic vision.

Hearing that Su ZhenTing had an idea, she immediately urged him to share it without hesitation.

Su Zhen'ting pondered for a moment before saying, "Your Highness, we can abandon the Dongshan Prefecture. As Your Highness said, it is Zhao Xuanji's stronghold. He made his fortune there and it's also his ancestral home. Not to mention that even now, the chief administrator of Dongshan Prefecture was personally cultivated by Zhao Xuanji himself. This place cannot be moved, and if we were to attempt it, it would already be too late."

"Therefore, in my humble opinion, it is the South River."

Pointing at the map of Nánhé, Su Zhèntíng said: "If we could make Nánhé neutral, it would at least prevent Zhao Xuánjī from getting any practical help. Then we would only need to deal with his arrangements in the Jīngjī region and Dōngshān Xíng province. This pressure would be greatly reduced, and who will ultimately win, remains to be seen."

This principle isn't complicated; it makes sense if you think about it for a moment.

But the real challenge lies in how to make Nanhe impartial.

Before Li Chen could ask, Su Zhen Ting went straight to the point: “Among ourselves, we can send someone to airdrop to Nanhe's Chief Secretary and grant them the authority to oversee both military and civil affairs. During this critical period, they can act outside of normal procedures. This person must be highly capable and loyal to Your Highness. As long as we give our full support, even if we cannot fully control Nanhe in a short time, at least we can ensure that Nanhe does not completely fall to Zhao Xuanji.”

Li Chen directly asked the key question: "General, do you have any candidates"

Su Zhenting bowed and said, "Minister of Punishment, Zhou Ping'an."

At the mention of this name, Su Pingbei's face was filled with astonishment.

Within the Donggong Group, there are actually factions.

Of course, on our side, it's an independent line.

Xu Changqing and Guan Zhiwei can be considered to be part of the literary officials faction within the Eastern Palace.

Xu Changqing and his side, although there wasn't much conflict between them and this side, their interactions were indeed not frequent. After all, everyone was in a sensitive position, and maintaining distance was only natural.

If all of them huddle together like that, the Crown Prince will be worried sick.

But within the two branches of literature and martial arts, there existed a unique entity.

That is Zhou Ping'an, currently the highest-ranking official in Donggong Group, and the one with the most mysterious background.

This person was not close to the Su family, nor did they have any dealings with Xu Changqing and his associates. They kept to themselves, like a lone traveler.

Supingbei had also heard of him. He knew that the other person didn't talk much, but every word he said could hit the nail on the head. He was extremely capable and deeply scheming.

He couldn't figure out why his father would recommend such a person.

When this name reached Li Chen's ears, he was also a little surprised.

But soon, Li Chen was at peace.

"Very well, this palace understands."

Li Chen did not give Su Zheting a definite answer and said, "This palace will consider it carefully."

Su Zhen Ting nodded and said no more.

He finished making his suggestions, and how to make the decision was Li Chen's business, he wouldn't say more.

Next, Li Chen spent another half hour talking in his study before finally getting up to leave.

After Li Chen left, Su Pingbei could no longer hold back and asked his father, who was bowing his head to drink tea, “Father, why did you suggest Zhou Ping'an I heard that person is not someone who knows how to repay kindness.”

Su Zhen'ting gave a look that said, "I expected you to ask." He replied calmly, "Do I need him to remember my kindness If he remembers, it will be the grace of your Lordship he remembers."

"In this crucial time, we need everyone to contribute their utmost. Considering the current situation, he is the most suitable candidate from the East Palace."y say it out loud would be considered rude.As Li Chen was about to ride his horse and wield his sword, ready to strike the black bear down, he heard cheers from the direction of the roar."Gone!"Li Che...
