Watching Yan Xifeng leave, Yuyao closed the side door and returned to the dormitory.
The queen was sitting on the couch, and Yuyao said, "Your Majesty, please rest early. It's time for Yin."
The queen has just been in good health, so staying up late at this time is harmful to her health.
The queen got up and walked to the dressing table, and Yuyao began to remove her makeup.
"Liu Feng's massage is really unique. After every massage, I feel much better."
The queen was recalling the massage just now. Long Chen's technique was really good.
Yuyao didn't know what to say. She was also a woman and knew where the queen liked to push the most.
After removing her makeup, Yuyao helped the queen to sleep.
Long Chen came out of the dormitory and returned to Liu Mansion alone.
It was already late at night, the door was closed, but the lights inside were still on.
After knocking on the door, Shuiyun immediately opened the door and pulled Long Chen into the yard.
After closing the door, Shuiyun asked worriedly: "Did the palace maid complain? Did the empress blame me?"
Long Chen hugged Shui Yun and smiled: "Complain? Does she dare? I am now the queen's right-hand man, how can you blame me for a cheap maid?"
Shuiyun was relieved and said: "Don't do this next time. If you encounter someone who likes to complain, your Majesty will keep it in mind even if you don't punish him in person."
"If you are favored now, I will not blame you. If you fall out of favor one day, you will be settled later."
Things in the palace are like this. When you are favored, everything is easy to talk about. When you fall out of favor, everything is settled.
Just like Mi Zixia and Wei Linggong, when they are good friends, everything is fine, but when they fall out, everything is a sin.
Long Chen smiled and said: "Okay, I understand, it's so late, go to sleep."
Long Chen hugged Shui Yun and walked towards the bedroom, but Shui Yun said: "There is another one in the backyard waiting for you to sleep."
Of course I mean fragrant.
Long Chen smiled and said: "Ignore her. I'm too lazy to deal with her tonight. I'll sleep with you."
Shui Yun smiled sweetly and entered the bedroom with Long Chen.
.
Guancheng.
Shi Le rode a horse, followed by With Xiao Liang and Li Chenglie behind them, Lu Qichang was also behind them.
Several people were patrolling the camps outside the city to watch the training of new recruits in each battalion.
During this period, Shi Le recruited many new soldiers and was intensifying their training.
"On the battlefield, only the brave will survive, and the timid will die the fastest."
"So, when the war drums sound, just rush forward."
A school captain yelled at the new recruits, and the soldiers below shouted "kill".
Shi Le frowned when he heard this and said, "Why are you so weak?"
Privy Councilor Lu Qichang stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, our army rations are insufficient and the soldiers cannot eat enough."
Shi Le looked unhappy. He knew that food and grass were in short supply, but he didn't expect that it would affect the training of the soldiers.
The soldiers don't have enough to eat and have no strength to fight. They will definitely be defeated when they encounter Long Chen.
"Collect some more grain and bring it over. The autumn harvest will begin soon."
Long Chen rested in Yangcheng, which gave Shi Le a chance to breathe.
After the autumn harvest, we can collect grain and grass again, and there will be no problem in fighting another battle.
Lu Qichang looked troubled and stopped talking.
Li Chenglie, the commander-in-chief of the army, also did not speak.
Seeing the strange expressions on the two people's faces, Shi Le asked, "Is there any problem?"
Lu Qichang glanced at Li Chenglie, but Li Chenglie still didn't speak. Lu Qichang had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "The wheat fields behind us have been swept by the rebels and rebels. I'm afraid we won't be able to harvest much food."
"In addition, we have mobilized several times, and the people are waiting for the autumn harvest to survive."
Shi Le was very unhappy when he heard this and said angrily: "These rebels are causing trouble in the rear. Isn't there nothing you can do?"
The three of them were silent.
Shi Le thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Liang!"
Xiao Liang took a step forward and bowed: "The general will be here at the end."
Shi Le ordered: "Take ten thousand iron kites and wipe out the rebels in the rear. You must receive food for the autumn harvest!"
Xiao Liang was a little worried and said, "What if Long Chengen makes a sneak attack?"
Shi Le said unhappily: "I am here. If Long Chengen dares to attack, I will destroy him!"
Xiao Liang immediately bowed and said: "The last general has given orders!"
Xiao Liang immediately lit ten thousand iron kites and left Guancheng to go to the rear of Daxia.
Returning to the general's mansion, Shi Le was upset.
"What's going on with Puxuan? Is there any news from Honglu Temple?"
Kong Ji disappeared, Shi Lequan assumed that Kong Ji had been killed and no longer expected Kong Ji.
The only one we can count on is Pu Xuan.
Pu Xuan and Tang Guolong, the Minister of Honglu Temple, went to Wusi for some time, but there was no reply.
Lu Qichang said: "The country of Us is a long way away and we have to cross the desert. We are counting the time. I'm afraid we haven't reached the country of Us yet."
Shi Le sighed slightly: "It seems that everything is hopeless."
Lu Qichang and Li Chenglie fell into silence. Shi Le was scolding them, saying that they couldn't count on them either.
"Is everything okay over there in the royal city?"
Shi Le has always been worried about something happening in Xingqing City. This is a vague feeling that something is wrong.
Li Chenglie replied: "No problem. Yesterday, a grain transport team from Wangcheng arrived at Guancheng. I specifically asked if everything was okay."
Shi Le nodded and said, "Tell Yuncheng to be more careful. Long Cheng'en is a thief who always comes and goes, so don't be careless."
"Is there anything going on over there in Witch City?"
Li Chenglie said again: "It's okay. His Royal Highness commanded a hundred thousand troops to guard it. Even if Long Chengen had wings on his back, he wouldn't be able to fly over."
Shi Le nodded slightly and said, "Step back."
The two men exited the general.
When he got outside, Li Chenglie sighed slightly: "Privy Councilor, what do you think?"
Lu Qichang smiled bitterly and said: "The Commander-in-Chief is very resourceful, what do you think?"
Li Chenglie looked up at the sky, and the white clouds in the sky were gradually getting higher.
"A storm is coming, but I can't do anything about it."
Li Chenglie felt a deep sense of powerlessness. He could feel that the building was about to collapse, but there was nothing he could do.
Lu Qichang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's all the same."
Li Chenglie said: "Tell me, when did I start Daxia?"
He wanted to say, when did Daxia begin to decline and step by step get to where it is now?
Lu Qichang thought seriously for a moment and said: "It starts with Long Chengen's elimination of Jingtian Lie and the Long Family Army guarding Jade Buddha Pass."
From that time on, the Long family army has been threatening Xixia.
After Long Chen destroyed Jing Tianlie, he sent troops to the grassland to destroy Yeluhong, and the situation completely reversed.
Li Chenglie shook his head and said, "I think it started when Long Chengen eliminated Yeluhong."
"If Yeluhong was still there and hundreds of thousands of cavalry from the north threatened the northern border of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Long Chengen would be unable to attack our country, Daxia."
"It's ridiculous that our country didn't send troops to assist Yeluhong at that time, and the world condoned Long Chengen."
Lu Qichang sighed: "Yes, if we had sent troops at that time to defeat or even kill Long Chengen on the grassland, how would we be in today's situation?"
The two of them sighed, regretting that they should not have killed Long Chen earlier.
"If the trickle is not blocked, it will become a river; if the fire is not saved, it will be like a scorching fire; if the two leaves are not removed, it will be cut off with an axe."
"It's too late to regret, it's too late to regret."
Lu Qichang looked up to the sky and sighed, while Li Chenglie shook his head and sighed.
.
Xingqing City, Liu Mansion.
Hanxiang picked up an exquisite jade ball, bit it in her mouth, and pressed her back against the cross stake.
Long Chen picked up the iron chain, tied Hanxiang's wrists to the buckles, and locked his ankles with shackles.
"Master Wife, is it okay?"
Long Chen admired Hanxiang, and he played well every time.
