The Chu Royal Palace.
“Dad, how many warriors do we currently have?” queen Li Wei asked her father, General Li.
“Currently we have two hundred thousand soldiers belonging to the elite forces, and more than four hundred thousand soldiers of the Royal army,” replied General Li.
“Our strength is still too weak when compared to the might of the Qing Empire which has over a million warriors. Father, as soon as we have to increase our strength,” said Queen Li Wei.
“My daughter, why do you look so rushed to increase the power we have? Do you want to expand the territory to another Kingdom territory?” general Li asked looking at the face of Queen Li Wei.
“Not like that. I just want the whole Kingdom and the Empire to know that we are not weak. To show that we are not weak, we need to increase the power of this Kingdom as soon as possible,” replied Queen Li Wei.
After the departure of the third Prince and the dissolution of the Black Dragon army, many Kingdoms underestimated the power of the Chu Kingdom.
For the sake of silencing their petty suppositions, Queen Li Wei planned to align the power of the Chu Kingdom on par with the power of the Qing Empire. Hence, he desperately needed a large number of warriors.
“If that's your goal, I'll gladly help you gather more warriors,” General Li said in support of what Queen Li Wei is aiming for.
General Li Wei himself was furious and angry when many Kingdoms underestimated the Chu Kingdom, which was currently led by his daughter. However, the current strength of the Chu Kingdom was indeed not enough to silence their mouths, which still underestimated the power of the Chu Kingdom.
General Li Wei left his daughter's study, having finished discussing some things that he indeed needed to discuss with the leader of the Chu Kingdom.
“I will show her, if I can become a stronger woman than Princess Liu Yao. Just wait, when the time comes, I alone will kill that woman, and back you will fall into my arms!” queen Li Wei muttered as General Li came out died in her study.
The main purpose of Queen Li Wei to gather strength was to prove that she was better than Princess Liu Yao.

The Shu Royal Palace.
“Currently the power of the Shu Kingdom consists of only one hundred thousand Royal soldiers, seventy-five thousand Silver Lotus soldiers, ninety thousand Golden Lotus soldiers, and ten thousand soldiers of the Black Turtle army. The power that the Shu Kingdom has is far from the ideal strength of a Kingdom,” Princess Liu Yao told Qin Chen.
“Not there are still warriors on guard in every city? Why are there only a hundred thousand Kingdom soldiers you count?” qin Chen asked.
“The soldiers in the city are the soldiers who protect the city, while the Royal soldiers are the soldiers who protect the entire territory of the Kingdom. Previously Royal warriors numbered more than four hundred thousand soldiers, but now less than half of them were left,” Princess Liu Yao replied.
“Then, just enter the Black Dragon army to become a member of the Kingdom warriors,” Qin Chen said suddenly.
“They do not deserve to be soldiers of the Kingdom.”.
“Why don't they deserve to be soldiers of Shu Kingdom? Is it because their encounters are too few, or because their strength is weaker than the current Kingdom warriors?” qin Chen asked.
“They are not at all weak, and fifty thousand people is not a small amount. However, rather than making them soldiers of the Kingdom, they were more deserving of the special forces division. Perhaps, we can form the Black Dragon Cavalry whose members consist of the Black Dragon army and the Black Turtle army.”.
Qin Chen was happy to hear Princess Liu Yao's thoughts on the formation of the Black Dragon Cavalry. However their numbers were still too small to form a large force of combat cavalry. At the very least, a combat Cavalry should have at least a hundred thousand members. For now, even in joining, the number of Black Dragon troops and the number of Black Turtle troops had not been able to touch the number of one hundred thousand.
If you want to complete their numbers, forced Qin Chen to do the selection, and return to do special training for those who passed the selection.
“If you really want to form a strong combat cavalry, we must re-select and conduct special training on those who successfully pass the selection, we must return to the selection,” Qin Chen said as he looked at Princess Liu Yao's face that was not covered in a veil because they were currently only alone.
“I will make an announcement in the Capital about the selection of the formation of special forces,” said Princess Liu Yao knew what she should do.
Qin Chen nodded his head in agreement. “Before the Black Dragon Cavalry is truly formed, I hope that the formation information of the Black Dragon Cavalry is not spread to the Other Kingdoms, or even spread all the way to the Imperial side.”.
“If it is spread before it is actually formed. I'm afraid they will try to thwart the formation of the Black Dragon Cavalry,” Qin Chen said seriously.
As the two were seriously talking about the formation of the Black Dragon Cavalry, the two heard the sound of footsteps approaching to their place.
A soldier asked for permission to enter Princess Liu Yao's study in the Shu Kingdom's palace because there was something she wanted to convey to the Princess.
“Come in,” Princess Liu Yao said as soon as she finished wearing the veil covering part of her face.
“What do you want to tell me?” princess Liu Yao asked the soldier kneeling not far from her.
“Your Highness, there are the higher-ups of the Ming Kingdom who would like to meet with His Majesty.”.
“Have them wait in the Royal hall because I have to prepare first before meeting them!” princess Liu Yao said.
“Good Your Majesty..” The soldier immediately got up and left Princess Liu Yao's study.
“What do you need to prepare? Not that you already know what their purpose is to come to this palace?” qin Chen looked at Princess Liu Yao.
“At least I want to change clothes that do not indicate that there has just been a naughty man who touched my body.” Princess Liu Yao looked at Qin Chen flirtatiously.
Going to the room next to her study, Princess Liu Yao quickly changed her clothes.
It was not until ten minutes that he had returned to the study room where Qin Chen was waiting for his arrival.
“It is better that we meet them soon,” Princess Liu Yao said as she hugged Qin Chen's arm.
Walking in tandem and the reluctant Princess Liu Yao took off her embrace on Qin Chen's arm, the two made their way towards the Royal hall, where the Ming Kingdom's higher-ups were waiting for their presence.
The door guard soldiers instantly announced the arrival of Princess Liu Yao and Qin Chen, as the two wanted to enter the Royal hall.
“What a woman who is so graceful and beautiful.” first impression of three high-ranking members of the Ming Kingdom when seeing the face of Princess Liu Yao even though part of her face is covered with a veil.
“Our respect to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess,” said the three as soon as Princess Liu Yao sat on the throne of the Crown Princess, which was exactly to the left of the King's throne.
Princess Liu Yao was indeed deliberately not sitting on the King's throne because she had indeed not been officially inaugurated as the supreme leader of the Shu Kingdom. Currently she was still a Crown Princess of Shu Kingdom.
Princess Liu Yao received their respects, and had the three of them sit back after having stood up to welcome her arrival. As soon as they sat down, Princess Liu Yao simply asked what their purpose was in coming to see her.
The Ming Kingdom Defense Minister stood up, then he answered Princess Liu Yao's question, “Your Majesty, our arrival intent is to discuss the surrender of the entire Ming Kingdom territory to the hands of the Shu Kingdom.”.
“Why do you want to hand over the entire Ming Kingdom territory to Shu Kingdom?” ask Princess Liu Yao.
“Your Majesty, there is no longer a figure that can be expected to lead the Ming Kingdom, therefore we decided to give up the entire territory of the Ming Kingdom to the Kingdom of Shu.”.
“Do you know that the Kingdom of Shu is currently experiencing a decline in strength after the recent wars and rebellions? And again, the Shu Kingdom is also in a bad situation with the Empire?.”
“With the many problems we are facing, are you sure you still want to leave everything to us?” ask Princess Liu Yao.
The Ming Kingdom's Defense Minister turned his head back, looking towards his two comrades. Seeing the two nodding their heads, he just immediately answered Princess Liu Yao's question. “We are very confident of giving everything to Your Majesty, and we are ready to exert all our strength to help Your Majesty if indeed Your Majesty needs our strength.”.
“If you have decided, with open arms I accept you to be part of the Kingdom of Shu, but do not ever obstruct when I do the cleaning in your territory!” princess Liu Yao.
They knew what Princess Liu Yao meant by cleansing, and they had absolutely no intention of hindering her.
“Your Majesty has the right to do anything in our region.”.
