Jing Tianlie will definitely not come back, and sending an order for him to return to Beijing is just a means to calm the public.
The empress thought for a while, nodded slightly and said: "That makes sense. Immediately send an order to Jade Buddha Pass and order General Jing Tianlie to return to the court as soon as possible!"
Wang Wei, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, immediately sent people to Jade Buddha Pass to announce that Jing Tianlie had returned to the court.
The empress asked: "Is there anything else?"
No one in the court answered, so the empress said calmly: "Retreat from the court!"
The ministers left the court, and Wang Wei walked at the front. The other ministers stopped saying hello to him.
He was the first to jump out and ask for Jing Tianlie to be dealt with. If things went well, he would be the most loyal minister; if things went wrong, he would be the instigator.
When the situation was unclear, no one dared to go with Wang Wei.
Long Chen looked at Wang Wei's back, smiled slightly, turned around and returned to the West Palace with Di Luoxi.
Entering the room, Di Luoxi asked: "You know clearly that Jing Tianlie won't come back, why do you bother?"
Long Chen said: "I know, and the Holy One also knows, this is to stop everyone's mouths."
"Jingtian Lie is arrogant, domineering and lawless, but with the accumulation of several generations of the Jing family and supporters in both the government and the public, a direct crusade may cause criticism."
"Now we declare that he will return to the DPRK. If he does not come back or even raises troops to rebel, then we will start a public opinion war."
Di Luoxi asked: "What is a public opinion war?"
Long Chen said: "The purpose of the public opinion war is to occupy the moral high ground and make everyone stand on our side to deal with Jing Tianlie together."
Di Luoxi thought about it and felt that it made sense.
The ancestors of the Jing family fought for the Great Zhou Dynasty. If she had not come here, some people might say that the empress was unjust.
"Are we going to continue preparing for war?"
Xuan Yi came over and asked.
They heard about the court meeting.
Long Chen said: "Of course, Jing Tianlie will definitely not come back. When he refuses, we will send troops."
Di Luoxi said to Xuan Yi: "Go and prepare. The soldiers and horses of South Camp are preparing to leave, and we are also preparing to go to Linjiang City."
When the war breaks out at Jade Buddha Pass, Linjiang City will not be at peace. Di Luoxi will definitely guard Linjiang City at that time.
Xuan Yi asked: "Don't we go to Jade Buddha Pass with Xiao Longlong? How can he deal with Jing Tianlie alone?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "You have so little confidence in me? He is the Martial Emperor, and I am also the Martial Emperor. I am not as good as him?"
Xuan Yi shook his head and said: "No, Jing Tianlie is dozens of years old, you have just made a breakthrough, and..."
Moreover, Long Chen relied on Yang Jing Stone to break through, so Xuan Yi felt that Long Chen was not strong enough.
Long Chen smiled and said: "Don't worry, be careful when you arrive in Linjiang City. Li Chengdao will probably lead the expedition himself this time."
"But don't worry, as long as I succeed at Jade Buddha Pass, Li Chengdao will not dare to act rashly."
The key this time is Long Chen. If he wins, the national power of the Great Zhou Dynasty will increase again.
If he loses, Jingtianlie will definitely attack Naughty City. When the time comes, Nanliang will definitely attack, Xixia may also attack, and the northern barbarians will also attack.
Jing Tianlie's son Jing Feng is commanding the troops at Yanmen Pass, so he will definitely provide support.
By then, there will be strong enemies on three sides, and the situation in Dazhou will be extremely dangerous.
Therefore, in this battle, Long Chen must fight quickly and fight beautifully, so that the three parties can clearly see that Long Chen is stronger than Jingtian, and Dazhou has a new pillar.
Di Luoxi said: "You have to be careful, the Jade Buddha Pass is close to Xixia, I'm afraid they will take action."
Long Chen comforted him: "Don't worry, Xixia will never take action."
Di Luoxi frowned and asked, "Are you so sure? Are you hiding something from me?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "Anyway, don't worry, I will win this battle!"
Di Luoxi said no more and ordered Su Yourong to pack her things as soon as possible, and Xuan Yi went to South Camp to deliver the order.
Returning to Qiuxing Hall, there is a letter on the table in the room with a symbol on it, which was sent by Feng He.
Opening the letter, inside was the latest news from Feng He.
"You really think highly of me. You actually sent three strong men in the Martial Emperor realm and even sent the prince out."
"With such a hard dish, I wouldn't be willing to eat a few pieces of meat..."
Li Chengdao's reaction was beyond Long Chen's expectation. It was not surprising that the three sons of the Murong family were seeking revenge. What was strange was that Li Chengdao actually sent the crown prince and the third prince.
Two biological sons, Li Chengtong is still the crown prince.
This time I must tear off a few bites of flesh from them.
How about asking the Empress to take action and kill Prince Li Chengtong?
Long Chen immediately rejected this idea. The empress had to go to Linjiang Town to defend the city, and it was impossible to support Jade Buddha Pass.
Li Chengtong, Li Yuanying, Murong Lin, plus Jing Tianlie, four strong men in the Martial Emperor realm, Long Chen is the only one.
Four against one, except for Murong Lin, who is a youngster, the other three are all veterans, how to fight...
Long Chen walked around the room holding the secret message, trying to find a way to deal with it.
I keep thinking of Xiang Ning coming in with rice at the beginning of the lanterns.
"Sir, please eat. You haven't eaten all day."
Xiang Ning arranged the dishes and chopsticks and asked Long Chen to sit down.
Long Chen sat down, picked up his chopsticks and picked up vegetables to eat casually.
After eating a whole bowl, Long Chen put down his chopsticks, shook his head and sighed: "Damn it, another dead game!"
No matter how he calculated it, Long Chen had no chance of winning against the four Martial Emperors facing him.
Zhang Qian and Dugu Jiali could only hold back Murong Tai and Murong Sheng, and they had to face the four Martial Emperors alone. This was a fatal situation.
In the face of absolute strength, no tricks will work!
Bai Tingting walked in from outside, put her long sword on the table, sat across from her in a carefree manner, picked up Long Chen's bowl and chopsticks and started eating.
"Master Bai, let me make a new one for you. This is the leftovers from your meal."
Bai Tingting shook her head and said, "No, I don't dislike him. It's delicious."
Long Chen asked: "I haven't seen anyone for a day, where have you been?"
Bai Tingting put down her chopsticks, her mouth bulging, picked up the long sword, pulled out the blade, and said, "Let's carve characters."
Only then did Long Chen realize that there were two more words on the long sword: Chasing Shadows!
"This sword will be called Shadow Chaser Sword from now on."
Bai Tingting continued to devour the food and quickly finished all the food.
"Xiang Ning's cooking skills have improved again."
Bai Tingting drank a bowl of tea and patted her belly with satisfaction.
Xiang Ning smiled and said, "You are hungry."
After clearing away the dishes, Xiang Ning left the room.
Seeing Long Chen's frown, Bai Tingting asked, "Why are you unhappy? Because the Holy One didn't agree to send troops immediately?"
She heard the discussion outside.
Long Chen shook his head and said: "The problem with the Great Zhou Dynasty is that there are too few generals. The only masters at the Martial Emperor level are the Emperor Sheng, the two princesses, Jing Tianlie, Jing Feng, and now I am stretched too thin."
Yingfeng was in the Martial Emperor realm, but she was barely able to do so. When she broke through to the Martial Emperor realm, she used medicine to reach a level above the peak of a king and below the early stage of a Martial Emperor.
Bai Tingting asked: "What happened? Why did you say that suddenly?"
Long Chen shook his head slightly and said: "No matter what, the soldiers will come to cover up the water and the soil. I'm afraid of nothing. I have never lost!"
"Let's go and wash the fragrance with me!"
Long Chen smiled and picked up Bai Tingting and walked to the bathroom.
