Li Yuanying controlled the Imperial City Division, which was the secret service force of Nanliang. This force was very strong, so Li Yuanying's status in Nanliang was second only to that of Prince Li Chengtong.
Just now Li Chengdao said that he would be credited with a great merit, and Li Yuanying was thinking about whether he could seize the crown prince's position.
Li Yuanying hurried back to his hometown to mobilize the elite of the Imperial City Division to Qianjiang County.
After Li Yuanying left, Yu Fuguo whispered: "Your Majesty, I heard that Long Chengen and Jingtian were fighting fiercely, and he also left the capital and went to Jade Buddha Pass."
"I wonder if I could send someone to contact Jing Tianlie."
Li Chengdao looked at Yu Fuguo and smiled slightly: "You have become smarter and smarter. I will reward you with a hundred taels of silver."
Yu Fuguo was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Chengdao happily got up and went to Concubine Wei Hui's room.
He had already sent someone to contact Jing Tianlie, and there was no need to wait for Yu Fuguo to remind him.
Prince's Mansion.
A eunuch hurried into Li Chengtong's room and closed the door.
"Your Highness, we have just received news that the Third Prince is sending people from the Imperial City Division to Qianjiang County to assassinate Long Chengen. The superior promised that if this happens, it will be a great achievement."
Li Chengtong looked solemn. Although he was the prince, the third prince Li Yuanying had been competing with him, so he had a sense of crisis.
Princes in history often became NPCs and had experience gained by other princes. Li Chengtong was worried that the same would happen to him.
"If the third prince really kills Long Chengen, I am afraid it will be detrimental to His Royal Highness."
The eunuch said softly.
Li Chengtong leaned on his chair and looked at the map on the table in worry.
Li Chengdao ordered him to train troops and horses to prepare to recapture Caishi City, but Caishi City's defense was already very solid, and with Linjiang City as backup, it would be too difficult to recapture it.
"If third brother succeeds, it will be a great achievement."
Li Chengtong murmured to himself.
"What if it doesn't work..."
Li Chengtong raised his head and glanced at the eunuch. The eunuch understood and immediately left the room.
....
Long Chen and Zhang Qian dressed up as a hunting couple, riding on horses with knives hanging on their waists, bows and arrows hanging on their horses, and some animal skins and mountain products on their backs.
"You look like a hunter."
Long Chen looked at Zhang Qian and smiled.
Zhang Qian looked at her outfit and said, "It's okay."
Long Chen smiled and said: "Eating meat is nutritious and helps you grow bigger."
Only then did Zhang Qian realize that Long Chen said she had big breasts.
"I've already wrapped my chest. No matter how big it gets, there's nothing I can do about it."
Zhang Qian did not wear a breastplate, but used a method of wrapping her breasts to make herself look as small as possible, but she was still very big.
"Ahead is Shangjiang County. After passing Shangjiang County, we will reach Qianjiang County. Let's rest in the city for a night first."
I definitely won't be able to make it today, so I'll stay in the city for one night before it gets dark.
"good."
The two people dismounted and arrived at the city gate. Seeing that the two men were riding good horses, the soldiers guarding the city stretched out their hands and said, "What are you doing?"
Long Chen took out ten pieces of money from his sleeve, stuffed it into the soldier's hand, and said with a smile: "Sir, it's a convenience for us hunters in the mountains."
The soldiers thought there were too few, so they stepped forward to flip the furs and asked, "Aren't you pirates?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "They are from the sea, and we are from the mountains, no, no."
As he said this, he took out some broken silver and put it into the soldier's hand.
The soldier then happily let him go and said, "I think so. How could the people in the mountains be pirates? Let's go."
After entering the city, Zhang Qian cursed in a low voice: "Why do you need money to enter the city?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "You have followed the princess and got used to being aloof. The people below are like this. Just get used to it."
"Find an inn to stay, it's getting late."
The best inn in the city is next to the county government office and is called Fuyuan Inn.
In ancient times, the center of a city was the government office.
After entering the inn, Zhang Qian said: "Waiter, stay at the hotel."
When the waiter saw Long Chen and the other two dressed as hunters, he looked down on them and said, "Sir, ours is a good store, but it's expensive. You can go to the one next door."
Zhang Qian threw out a piece of silver and said, "If you want to go to the house, take off my furs. I want fine materials."
The waiter was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this Orion to be so generous.
"No problem, we will have an upper room and your horse will be well fed."
The waiter quickly arranged the room, took down the furs and put them on the table, and then led the horse to the backyard stable to feed beans.
Long Chen and the two sat down, and the waiter asked what to eat. Long Chen ordered noodles and mutton.
After a while, noodles and meat were served.
"It's good to have money."
Long Chen shook his head and smiled.
What people care about in this world is money and power. If you have money and power, others will respect you. If you don't have money and power, anyone can step on you.
"Ms. sir, I'm afraid the table next to you may cause trouble."
Zhang Qian was eating noodles and looking at the table next to her from the corner of her eye.
There sat an embroidered man, who looked pretty good, but had a sinister look on his face, and looked Zhang Qian up and down with his eyes.
The five helpers next to him were from poor households. They were dressed in civilian clothes and had scars on their faces. They were definitely not kind people.
"Ignore them, go up and rest after eating."
Long Chen didn't want to cause trouble.
Zhang Qian lowered her head to eat noodles and ignored the people next to her.
After almost eating, Long Chen planned to get up and go back to his room to rest, but the five shabby households next to him surrounded him and blocked the way.
The embroidered man came over with a lewd smile on his face and put one hand on the fur and the other on Zhang Qian's shoulder.
"Young lady is so pretty, how can you sell your furs?"
Long Chen's expression changed slightly, he wanted to kill him with one knife, but he was afraid of causing trouble.
Seeing the change in Long Chen's expression, several broken-down households immediately blocked Long Chen, and they held Long Chen's shoulders to prevent him from getting up.
Long Chen's cultivation level is at the peak of a king, and he can kill these people instantly as long as he takes action.
Zhang Qian was furious. She had never been humiliated like this, so she would draw a sword and kill someone.
Outside the door, a handsome man walked in, wearing white clothes and a black cloak, a large exquisite silk hat, a short sword at his waist, and leather boots on his feet.
The man walked in and sneered: "You dare to molest a decent woman in broad daylight, how brave you are!"
Long Chen looked at the man in white and admired in his heart: He looks good!
When Zhang Qian turned around to look, she immediately saw that the man was Bai Tingting, who was disguised as a man.
Zhang Qian was surprised, why did Bai Tingting appear here? She came to take revenge on Long Chen? That's not right...
Young Master Xiuyi turned around and saw Bai Tingting, he immediately retracted his hand, his eyes gleamed, and said with a lewd smile: "Hey, where does this guy come from? He's not a local, right? This is the first time I've seen such a handsome brother."
"Please have a seat, please have a seat!"
Obviously, this embroiderer prefers Bai Tingting in men's clothing.
Long Chen complained in his heart: It turns out he is a man for both men and women.
Mr. Xiuyi's attention was diverted, and several shabby people immediately followed him and surrounded Bai Tingting.
Long Chen didn't recognize Bai Tingting, so he went upstairs after picking up the furs. Zhang Qian couldn't tell the difference between friend and foe, so she didn't care about this and followed her upstairs.
Arriving in the guest room, Zhang Qian whispered: "Sir, that person is Bai Tingting."
Long Chen didn't know her, but he knew Bai Tingting's name.
"Bai Tingting? Bai Qiulian's daughter? Come to me for revenge?"
Zhang Qian shook her head and said: "I don't know, but I heard that Bai Tingting and Bai Qiulian have a bad relationship. This woman likes to dress up as a man and become a ranger."
Long Chen sat down and thought: "Our whereabouts have been exposed. Bai Tingting would not have arrived here by such a coincidence."
