Rise to God with Life Skill Professions

The crowd’s gaze fell on him, each with a different expression.

Some showed a trace of eagerness, while others were calm as water.

When Qin An entered, he did not hesitate and immediately cupped his fist, saying, "Qin An greets Your Majesty. The border affairs have been settled. I heard Your Majesty wants to see me. I wonder what urgent matter it might be?"

He had actually guessed what it was about, surely related to the Forbidden Area, especially with the indecisive Defenders.

But Qin An still needed to ask, just in case he was wrong, so he could understand what was really happening.

Emperor Xuanwu nodded slightly and then explained the situation about the Forbidden Area.

Once he had finished speaking, he added,

"You know the specifics, and I want to know if you have a solution."

With these words, the high-ranking officials of the Daqian Kingdom all turned their eyes to Qin An, seemingly waiting for his response.

Qin An pondered for a moment and then looked up, saying, "Your Majesty, what I actually want to know is, what is your stance?"

Emperor Xuanwu frowned slightly and said, "You want my stance? What do you mean?"

He didn’t receive a direct answer; instead, he got a question, which made him feel that there was more to it.

Qin An looked up, "This is the key. To resolve this chaos, it cannot be separated from Daqian’s support."

"After all, it’s impossible for anyone to individually go to the Forbidden Area and resolve its mess."

"I can’t do it, neither can the officials present, not even Your Majesty alone."

He spoke straightforwardly, but his words were the truth.

The Forbidden Areas are too many and vast; a person’s strength, no matter how great, can only reach its pinnacle.

But even at their peak, there’s only one person.

When you can’t be in two places at once, it’s impossible to pacify the chaos of the Forbidden Areas.

And now, what is needed is to rely on Daqian’s strength, united as one, to have the chance to completely eliminate this chaos.

Emperor Xuanwu thought for a moment, gently stroking his chin, and then slowly said, "My stance is clear and tough. I have spent so much effort to clear so many obstacles, yet they have taught me a lesson."

"If I continue to speak kindly to them, won’t they just take advantage?"

This statement was met with slight nods from those present, clearly agreeing with Emperor Xuanwu’s opinion.

Everyone here has been battle-hardened, having faced various life-and-death trials, and everyone has a temper.

Yet, for the sake of Daqian’s development, everyone suppresses their personality deeply, striving to make Daqian better.

But now, these Forbidden Area folks suddenly stir up trouble again.

Anyone would find it unacceptable.

Emotions held to the extreme can erupt instantly.

Qin An thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "Since Your Majesty holds such intent, then it’s straightforward. Mobilize troops to the Forbidden Areas, suppress those wavering Defenders, and forcefully make them comply with Daqian’s terms."

These words brought about a heavy expression among those present.

Although Qin An’s method seemed very reliable, even effective, its implementation is incredibly difficult.

Not to mention, the Defenders of Forbidden Areas are not simple characters.

The fact that Daqian has dedicated a Forbidden Land Envoy’s position shows their remarkable strength, making suppression difficult.

"Continue; I am listening," Emperor Xuanwu slightly raised his hand, indicating for Qin An to proceed.

He patiently listened.

Qin An thought for a while before speaking, "The Defenders subdued last time are still aligned with us."

"Perhaps Daqian alone tackling the indecisive ones would be tough, but if we add those Defenders, the difficulty greatly lessens."

These words brought about realization among those present, finally understanding Qin An’s idea.

Partnering with Defenders who support them might truly work.

This approach may present variables, but short-term pain is better than prolonged agony.

The General looked at Emperor Xuanwu and, cupping his fist, said, "Your Majesty, the Evil Extermination Bureau is responsible for this matter; handing it over to them is ideal."

Neither the Prime Minister nor the academy’s head rebuffed these words upon hearing them, as the General spoke with reason.

Emperor Xuanwu thought briefly and nodded, "Alright, I will entrust this matter to you."

"You will have half a month to prepare, and whether prepared or not, you must initiate the attack before the deadline I set."

The General promptly agreed, taking on the task.

Qin An looked around and suddenly realized someone was missing, asking, "The Prince seems absent."

Though Prince Zhenyuan had long left Xuanjing City, now Xuanjing had important affairs. Apart from Marshal Liu, far away, the Prince should have been summoned.

Yet, there’s no sign of Prince Zhenyuan; why?

The Prime Minister casually replied, "Since the Forbidden Area’s turmoil emerged, Your Majesty sent the Prince to investigate among the Defenders; he hasn’t returned."

"But the Prince continues to send information, allowing us to understand the Forbidden Areas thoroughly."

Qin An showed a look of realization.

Lately, Daqian’s top officials have all been busy with endless tasks.

The Prince is the only one slightly at ease.

And since Qin An was at the border, Emperor Xuanwu sending the Prince to the Forbidden Area was sensible.

"Enough, don’t say any more." Emperor Xuanwu waved his hand, continuing, "That’s it for now; this mess must be settled once and for all."

"Remember, the time I’m giving you is limited. Of course, I won’t let you complete the task alone; you can mobilize my army at any time, including martial world forces."

It’s clear to anyone that relying solely on their own people is insufficient.

With Emperor Xuanwu’s support, Qin An felt the task much easier.

The conversation concluded, and those discussing rose and left the hall.

Qin An didn’t leave, for as he looked towards Emperor Xuanwu, he noticed the emperor signaling him to stay.

Qin An didn’t know the reason, but it didn’t hinder him from waiting patiently.

Emperor Xuanwu then paused slightly, saying, "Here’s the deal; I have a unique task. Others either have duties or do not reassure me, but honestly, you are the only one I trust."

Qin An gently shook his head and said, "Please, Your Majesty, be clear. If there’s anything I can do, I won’t falter in the slightest."

The conversation ended here; everything that needed saying has been said.

Yet Qin An was curious about the task Emperor Xuanwu mentioned.

Like he said, it’s tough to overthrow an entire situation alone. To overturn the situation, how difficult it is.

But now, Emperor Xuanwu only asked him alone to carry out a mission, proving it might not be simple.

Emperor Xuanwu nodded slightly, then took out a folded letter from a nearby drawer and slid it over to Qin An.

Qin An, showing a wary look, picked up the letter with Emperor Xuanwu’s indication.

After opening it, it was filled with vigorous script.

Each character exuded a sense of dominance.

But once Qin An finished reading its contents, his eyes showed a look of gravity.

"Your Majesty, this task truly isn’t something a mere person can accomplish."
