Nancheng Temple is built at the deepest part of Nancheng Street, and the entire street is named after Nancheng Temple.
In the hundreds of years since the founding of Zhongzhou, Youzhou has become more and more prosperous. Today, Nancheng Temple has become one of the few former dynasty buildings in Youzhou City.
Nancheng Street is narrow and deep. There are two rows of straight and thick poplar trees planted on both sides of the street. The dense tree crowns almost cover the sky. Standing in the middle of the street and looking up at the sky, there is only a thin line in the sky.
This is known as one of the quietest streets in Youzhou.
There are no huge residential areas or dense small shops on both sides of the street, only two neat rows of small dark blue buildings.
The poplar tree is straight.
The building is neat.
Like an army.
The wind started blowing in Youzhou at dusk.
There was no dusk on the horizon, and the whole sky was gloomy.
The wind before the rain poured into Nancheng Street, rows of poplar trees rustled, and it seemed that the only sound left in the world was the wind.
Nancheng Temple sits quietly at the end of the street, looking quiet and solemn in the wind.
Nancheng Temple is not a temple. The star flag of Zhongzhou is flying in front of the door. The national emblem of Zhongzhou with shining stars is hung at the door of the temple, which looks extremely majestic.
This is the office location of the Second Department of the General Staff Department.
The Second Department is the most mysterious and free department of the General Staff. It has a complex staff. There are even countless times more personnel outside the establishment than within the establishment. The main job of the Second Department is to set up an intelligence network, collect intelligence, and be responsible for sorting and analyzing it.
When necessary, take necessary actions based on national interests.
Therefore, the Second Department of the General Staff Department has a name that everyone can recognize externally.
Central Continent Military Intelligence Department.
The gloomy sky turned into dark night in the wind.
In the beautiful Nancheng Temple, a young woman with short hair opened the door of a side hall, turned off the lights inside, and walked directly to the entrance of Nancheng Temple.
The woman's figure is tall and slender, and she is indescribably graceful. She is dressed very simply, ordinary canvas shoes, a pair of light blue jeans covering her slender legs and round buttocks, and she wears an ordinary white short-sleeved shirt on her upper body.
, plain face, simple and natural.
The enchantment she once had seemed to be gradually fading away from her.
Purity settles into maturity.
Smooth long hair turned into sleek short hair.
Stability replaced liveliness.
Her figure is lonely, even a little weak, but with an indescribable stubbornness.
This is an indescribable beauty.
Nancheng Temple is quiet and gloomy at night.
The woman was carrying a simple handbag and walked quietly in Nancheng Temple, which was full of flowers and plants. For a moment, it seemed to light up the entire night sky.
It has been more than a year since I came to Youzhou.
No matter day or night, she will always be the most beautiful scenery in Nancheng Temple and the most beautiful color on Nancheng Street.
"Yuetong, are you working overtime again?"
A gentle voice sounded.
There was a faint light on Nancheng Temple at night, and a figure whose face looked a little blurry under the light was standing there.
Wang Yuetong could not clearly see his appearance, but he could clearly identify the other party's identity from the military uniform, especially the marshal's epaulettes.
"Ye Shuai."
Wang Yuetong stood at attention and saluted, and said in a calm tone: "Why are you here?"
Standing in front of her was the Central Continent Military God Ye Dongsheng.
Ye Dongsheng's personal force is not extremely powerful, and he is only able to use it in the Thunder Realm. He is known as the Military God of Zhongzhou. What he is most proud of is his mind. Zhongzhou has been involved in several hidden foreign disputes and countless large-scale military affairs over the years.
During the exercises, Ye Dongsheng was always the best candidate to be the commander, and the wars he commanded were almost never defeated.
Although the decisive battle in Tiandu caused heavy losses to Zhongzhou, it was not Ye Dongsheng's fault. Zhongzhou was too focused on the cooperation with the Palace of Reincarnation. As a result, when there was a change in the Palace of Reincarnation, all of Ye Dongsheng's plans suddenly lost their effect.
And this incident has more or less affected his promotion. If not for this, when Qi Beicang, the executive director of the Central Continent Military Department, retired two years ago, Ye Dongsheng would have become Dongcheng Invincible's strongest opponent.
If Ye Dongsheng wins, the overall power of the Beihai Wang family and the Southeast faction will expand rapidly, and some increasingly obvious hidden dangers will be suppressed by Wang Tianzong.
To take a step back, even if Ye Dongsheng fails in the end, the Beihai Wang family can get more bargaining chips, and they will be more calm when trading the border army with the Dongcheng family.
Unfortunately, all this came to naught due to the betrayal of the Reincarnation Palace during the decisive battle in Tiandu, which directly led to Ye Dongsheng’s serious lack of competitiveness when competing with Dongcheng Wudi.
To put it into perspective, the Beihai Wang family and the Southeast Group have really experienced some bad times in recent years.
The hidden dangers within the Beihai Wang Family are becoming more and more serious. The internal conflicts have been escalating in the past two years, and now they have reached the point where everyone with a discerning eye can detect them. In the past three years, the Beihai Wang Family has at least two opportunities to eliminate this hidden danger.
.
The first is that Ye Dongsheng becomes the new giant of the empire. If he defeats Dongcheng Wudi and takes over, all hidden dangers will be suppressed.
Unfortunately, the one who came up in the end was Dongcheng Wudi, the commander of the Frontier Corps.
Ye Dongsheng is still firmly suppressed in the position of Deputy Minister of the Military Department and Minister of the General Staff.
The second chance is for Wang Shengxiao to inherit the dragon vein.
If Wang Shengxiao breaks through to the peak of the Thunder Realm and merges with the Dragon Vein, adding huge luck, and using the immortality potion, he can directly enter the invincible realm in just one or two years.
This can also eliminate hidden dangers within the Wang family in Beihai.
But while the Beihai Wang family was still preparing these, Li Tianlan had already perfected his martial arts with the help of dragon veins.
Therefore, the hidden dangers of the Wang family in Beihai still exist.
The nerves of every big boss in the Southeast Group are getting tighter and tighter.
In the subtle light, Wang Yuetong took two steps forward.
She could clearly see the solemn look in Ye Dongsheng's eyes.
Wang Yuetong hesitated slightly, but in the end she didn't ask anything.
Ye Dongsheng sighed tiredly, looked at Wang Yuetong, and chuckled: "I'm here to have a meeting, and I want to see you by the way, Yuetong, you haven't called me Uncle Ye for a long time."
"I work in the General Staff and now I am a soldier under you. It is not appropriate to call me Uncle Ye."
Wang Yuetong said calmly.
Ye Dongsheng looked at Wang Yuetong as if he were looking at a angry child.
He knew that Wang Yuetong had resentment towards him.
It was Wang Tianzong's arrangement that she came to work at the General Staff. The General Staff has always been the traditional sphere of influence of the Southeast Group. Ye Dongsheng took charge of the General Staff as the deputy minister of the military, and even made it impossible to run the business here. Wang Yuetong was at the General Staff,
It's like being under his nose all the time. This is not surveillance, but Ye Dongsheng does pay a lot of attention to Wang Yuetong's activities on weekdays. Wang Yuetong naturally doesn't like this feeling.
"What's inappropriate?"
Ye Dongsheng sighed: "I worked as your grandfather's secretary for nearly ten years. For a few years, your father put you in our home for foster care. I watched you grow up."
Wang Yuetong looked calm and silent.
Like a withered flower that is stubborn and refuses to wither.
"Yuetong, your father and I are under a lot of pressure right now. At this time, you can't be willful."
Ye Dongsheng said helplessly.
"I'm not willful, but I don't think me marrying someone like Jiang Shangyu will be of any help to you either."
Wang Yuetong said calmly.
Ye Dongsheng took a deep breath: "You don't have to marry Jiang Shangyu. Your father didn't give Jiang Shan a clear answer on this matter. He just hopes that you will come to Youzhou to have more contact with other young people. If you don't like Jiang Shangyu, others
What about people? Over the past year or so, there have been more than two figures pursuing you, and many of them have family backgrounds and good character. Can you not like any of them? "
"I don't like it."
Wang Yuetong said without hesitation: "I already have someone I like, how can I like someone else?"
"You are angry!"
Ye Dongsheng snorted coldly. He and Wang Tianzong were very good friends, so he treated Wang Yuetong like his own children: "Think about it carefully, do you really like Li Tianlan? How long have you been in contact with him? I admit it.
, he is very outstanding, and he may indeed impress you, but that is not everything! You and he may have admired each other, and you thought it was love, but in fact it was not at all."
"This is just you being angry. If your father hadn't brought you back from Li Tianlan back then, and you hadn't contacted each other for three years, maybe your relationship would have faded long ago. He did a stupid thing, just because he took you away from Li Tianlan.
You will feel unwilling to take it back to Beihai. Li Tianlan, who was originally not very important, has become very important. You girl, isn't this being willful?"
"no."
Wang Yuetong's voice was still light, without any ups and downs, and without the youthful vigor that belonged to young people.
"Uncle Ye, you don't understand."
She said softly: "I can confirm my feelings, but I don't want to explain anymore. We really don't have much time together, but staying with him makes me feel at ease and calm. Relationships are not meant to be used for a long time.
To measure.”
Ye Dongsheng remained speechless.
After a long time, he took a deep breath and said with a wry smile: "Okay, even if you confirm your feelings, can you confirm Li Tianlan's feelings? Do you like him, does he like you?"
"Qin Weibai is her woman, and Dongcheng Ru is her fiancée. Frankly speaking, Dongcheng Ru is no worse than you, Qin Weibai is even more... ahem... girl, have you ever thought about this? Even if you are here
What place can there be beside him?"
Wang Yuetong was stunned on the spot.
The wind in the night sky gradually dissipated.
The clouds are pressing down.
It started to rain in Youzhou, bit by bit.
Wang Yuetong stood quietly in the rain, her eyes as blank as the rain falling at night.
"I have no idea."
She whispered, her voice simple and confused.
She really doesn't know.
In the past three years, she had never thought about this problem. She just persisted instinctively and did not want to give up.
Ye Dongsheng looked at Wang Yuetong with complicated eyes and said softly: "Since you don't know, then why are you insisting?"
"me..."
Wang Yuetong suddenly laughed. This seemed to be the first time she had smiled in a long time. In a daze, she seemed to have returned to her previous state, pure, lively, yet enchanting.
She straightened the short hair on her forehead and said softly: "I just want my father to admit that all these years, only my persistence is the right thing. The man I like is the most correct."
She looked at Ye Dongsheng and continued: "Uncle Ye, do you deny that if the conflicts and hidden dangers of the Wang family in Beihai really break out... When his father and brother cannot suppress them, only he has the ability to solve them?
Everything, as long as he can grow up."
"He does have the ability."
Ye Dongsheng's voice was cold and straightforward: "But does he have a position?"
"I am where he stands."
Wang Yuetong said calmly: "My man, whether he is a hero or a darling, will have friendship from now on. I believe this."
Without friendship, how can one become a genius?
Wang Tianzong himself didn't seem to notice this.
But Wang Yuetong always believed.
She believes she is right.
"I want to take leave."
Wang Yuetong looked at Ye Dongsheng and said softly.
This is not the first time she has asked for leave. Since the first day Li Tianlan returned to Huating, she has written a leave report to her boss.
It's just that her report was conveyed upwards layer by layer, and finally reached Ye Dongsheng's desk.
Ye Dongsheng did not approve.
Wang Yuetong did not move.
Because she knew very well that if the holiday was not approved, she would not be able to leave Youzhou.
Ye Dongsheng was silent for a long time.
Just when Wang Yuetong's heart became cold again, he finally nodded.
"Can."
Ye Dongsheng said.
Wang Yuetong froze on the spot for a moment, looking at Ye Dongsheng blankly without saying anything.
"You can go to Huating and see Li Tianlan."
Ye Dongsheng lowered his eyelids, hiding all his eyes.
"I..."
Wang Yuetong suddenly panicked.
three years.
So much struggle, so much missing, so much suffering...
Wang Yuetong has never doubted her feelings, nor has she escaped from her lovesickness.
Now Li Tianlan is in Huating.
I am in Youzhou.
I have a vacation, and as long as I am willing, I can see the man I long for in a few hours.
But at this moment, Wang Yuetong suddenly panicked inside.
The positions of the Beihai Wang family and Li family suddenly became extremely sharp and clear.
The scenes when the two parted began to reappear in her mind.
Wang Yuetong was a little scared. She didn't dare to meet Li Tianlan. She wanted to go to Huating, but she needed a reason.
Ye Dongsheng took out an invitation and handed it to Wang Yuetong.
"This is an invitation sent to you, an invitation from Jiang Shangyu. He will hold a banquet on the Huangpu River tomorrow night. It is the pinnacle appointment of the younger generation. Li Tianlan will go."
Wang Yuetong's breathing suddenly became rapid.
She suddenly felt very grateful to Jiang Shangyu.
Because this invitation is the reason she needs most.
She took the invitation tremblingly, suddenly bowed deeply to Ye Dongsheng, and ran directly to the door.
Her figure staggered, not wanting to wait any longer.
"Your father asked me to tell you something."
Ye Dongsheng's voice sounded behind her, clear and steady.
"Don't think of yourself too cheaply. At least in his heart, you are nobler than anyone else."
Wang Yuetong's figure was slightly stiff.
She thought of the father-daughter relationship that had become increasingly worse with her father in recent years.
Wang Yuetong felt sour in her heart and rushed out of Nancheng Temple.
...
Li Tianlan stayed in Sky Academy for nearly a week.
He waited until the injuries of Li Baitian, Xu Chu and Ning Qiancheng were stabilized before he answered the call to the director compound of Wudong New District again.
Dongcheng Ru has always lived here.
Zou Yuanshan has already returned to the Central Plains.
Dongcheng Qiuchi is still working and has not gotten off work.
So when Li Tianlan came back, only Dongcheng Rusuo and Jin Mao were sitting in the living room.
Dongcheng is reading a book.
The golden retriever lay quietly at her feet, staring at the animation on TV, not knowing what it was observing.
Seeing Li Tianlan coming back, Golden Retriever rushed over and hung on Li Tianlan. Dongcheng seemed a little happy: "You're back."
Li Tianlan nodded, casually touched the golden retriever's head, put it on the ground, and said, "The first batch of elites from Deep Sea Academy are already in Sky Academy."
"I heard about it."
Dongcheng poured a glass of water for Li Tianlan, her eyelashes blinked slightly, her bright eyes shone brightly, with a slight smile, a little shy, a little proud, clear and soft.
"You severely injured Gu Yunxia and defeated Song Ci. You are very powerful."
Dongcheng Ru's voice was crisp and clear, and he said honestly: "I can't beat Song Ci."
"Song poetry is indeed very strong."
Li Tianlan nodded. Under normal conditions, Song Ci was actually not difficult, but once she was an elite member of the Wang family's martial arts in Beihai, once she went all out, her fighting power that exploded in an instant was almost unmatched in the Thunder Realm. Although Li Tianlan won
I won't belittle her, but I won't belittle her.
Dongcheng sat next to Li Tianlan and naturally grabbed one of his hands and put it on his leg.
Dongcheng Ruru changed into a tight-fitting white jumpsuit today, and Li Tianlan's palms could clearly feel the warmth and elasticity of the other person's thighs through a thin layer of fabric.
He made an uncontrollable choice in his heart, and then said nonchalantly: "When are you going to meet them?"
"Just leave the exercise one day in advance. I'll be with you."
Dongcheng said honestly.
Li Tianlan thought for a while: "Then let's go to the Donghuang Palace?"
Dongcheng's eyes lit up, and before he could speak, the phone suddenly rang.
Dongcheng picked up the phone, looked at it, and said softly: "It's father. Do you answer?"
"Take it."
Li Tianlan shook his head. The enthusiastic Dongcheng family always felt like he couldn't bear it, but after that night, Li Tianlan felt that his room for dodge was getting smaller and smaller.
He subconsciously looked at Dongcheng's small mouth.
Ruddy, plump, gentle...
A little jerky, but very flexible.
Li Tianlan's body felt hot and he picked up the water glass in front of him and took a sip.
Dongcheng felt Li Tianlan's gaze, his face turned red, he answered the phone and called dad.
"If so, are you and Tianlan together?"
Dongcheng Wudi’s voice was very soft.
Dongcheng hummed obediently and said, "He is watching anime next to me."
Li Tianlan looked at the two funny bears on TV with a look of helplessness on his face.
Dongcheng Wudi smiled with some relief: "Well, it's good to be together. You two should have more contact."
Dongcheng said, "Dad, what happened?"
Dongcheng Wudi was silent for a while, and then said slowly: "Nothing, but for the final exercise in a month, you should join the Donghuang Palace. Tianlan has a little few helpers now."
"good."
Dongcheng nodded without hesitation: "I'll discuss it with him."
Dongcheng Wudi smiled and hung up the phone.
"What's wrong?"
Li Tianlan asked subconsciously, but when he turned his head, his eyes fell on Dongcheng Rusu's small mouth completely instinctively.
Dongcheng couldn't bear it anymore. When she thought about what happened that night, she suddenly became a little embarrassed and angry: "What are you looking at?"
Li Tianlan also felt that he was very insignificant, and he coughed awkwardly and said: "It's nothing. What did the commander say?"
Dongcheng hesitated for a moment, then finally shook his head: "No, just chatting."
She finally decided to take matters into her own hands.
Li Tianlan felt embarrassed and didn't ask any more questions.
Dongcheng Ru suddenly leaned over, kissed him on the face, and sat next to him.
Li Tianlan's body trembled and he glanced at him subconsciously.
"Your heartbeat is very fast, and your eyes are strange."
Dongcheng bit his lip and said, "It's day time... night time..."
Li Tianlan's mind went blank, and the heat all over his body almost made him lose his mind. He gasped a few times, suddenly stretched out his hand, lifted Dong Cheng's chin, and looked at her small mouth to kiss her.
A burst of cold murderous intent instantly erupted from Dongcheng Rushi's body.
Li Tianlan was stunned for a moment and subconsciously let go of his palm.
The clarity in Dong Cheng's eyes gradually disappeared and he became confused, but the murderous intention became stronger and stronger.
Thought flashed in her eyes.
Li Tianlan's expression changed and he narrowed his eyes.
The person awakening in Dongcheng Rusu's body now is undoubtedly Dongcheng Moon God.
Dongcheng Yueshen's expression suddenly changed with a confused look in his eyes, and his beautiful face suddenly turned red.
She seemed to have remembered something, and her eyes suddenly became cold.
That night that made Dong Cheng extremely humiliated and angry was completely unbearable humiliation for her.
What was especially unbearable to her was the ending of that night.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Li Tianlan actually got it on her face.
Dongcheng Luna's eyes suddenly became extremely cold.
She stared at Li Tianlan, her delicate body trembling non-stop.
"You...how dare you blaspheme me?!"
She looked at Li Tianlan with a look of disbelief.
Blasphemy.
Just one word is enough to show how arrogant Dongcheng Moon God is.
"I'm just doting on my fiancée."
Li Tianlan looked at Dongcheng Moon God with calm eyes and said calmly: "Does it have anything to do with you?"
