Lu Ji returned to True Fire City and reported the matter to Yufu State.
After receiving the news, Yu Fuguo found Huairen's soldier and asked him to report the news.
Yu Fuguo walked to Li Zhaoliang's Chinese army tent by himself.
Entering the big tent, Li Zhaoliang was discussing matters with Huairen.
"Mr. Fish, you are back, you have worked hard."
Li Zhaoliang was very excited to see Yu Fuguo. He couldn't sleep or eat well these days, for fear of breaking up with Long Chen.
"Old slave pays homage to the Emperor."
Yu Fuguo pretended to be tired, and Huairen immediately poured tea. Yu Fuguo took a sip and said, "Thank you for your great blessing, Your Majesty. Fortunately, I have lived up to my command."
Li Zhaoliang was overjoyed when he heard that the matter was settled.
Huairen suspected that Yu Fuguo was committing fraud, so he immediately said: "Your Majesty, I will leave first."
Yu Fuguo immediately said: "We are all our own people, why are you avoiding Mr. Huai?"
Li Zhaoliang immediately explained: "Huai Aiqing has other matters, let him go."
Huairen immediately left the tent.
Li Zhaoliang pulled Yu Fuguo to sit down and said, "Long Chen didn't make any other requests?"
Yu Fuguo wiped his face and said: "Long Chen didn't say any additional conditions. When the empress heard that she was going to withdraw her troops, Feng Yan was furious. Fortunately, Long Chen was there to dissuade her."
Li Zhaoliang sighed: "Long Chen is from Daliang after all, and he is willing to speak for Daliang."
The Yufu Kingdom knew that Li Zhaoliang had been publicly and secretly demoted, and that Long Chen was already the King of Wu of the Zhou Dynasty, and had a blood feud with Li Chengdao, so why did he always speak up for Liang? This was abnormal.
Yu Fuguo said: "The late emperor has passed away, and the hatred has been cleared. Long Chen's ancestral tombs are all in Jinling, and he does not want to be occupied by the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."
Speaking of which, Li Zhaoliang forgot to ask where Li Chengdao went last time.
Because Li Zhaoliang actually didn't care about Li Chengdao's life and death. It would be better if Li Chengdao died, otherwise he would be embarrassed as the emperor.
When Yu Fuguo said that Li Chengdao had passed away, Li Zhaoliang looked surprised and asked, "Yes."
Yu Fuguo nodded slightly and said: "He was killed by Long Chen and the Empress together, and the ghost fetus fled to the ice field." Li Zhaoliang looked sad, looked up to the sky and said with grief and anger: "My brother was killed by thieves, but I want to make peace with them. I am ashamed of my brother, and I am ashamed of my ancestors!"
This is the best outcome. Li Chengdao died in Long Chen's hands, the Long family's revenge was avenged, and Long Chen would not vent his anger on him.
Li Zhaoliang looked sad on the surface, but felt relieved in his heart. He felt that he was safe.
Yu Fuguo didn't expect Li Zhaoliang's thoughts. He thought Li Zhaoliang was really sad.
"Your Majesty, this is the late Emperor's own choice. Your Majesty must not let down the late Emperor's great trust, and the country must not be ruined."
"Long Chen used to hate the late emperor and kill the late emperor and his queen. In fact, he also felt regret in his heart. After all, he was his own king."
"This is why Long Chen wants to keep Jinling City. He wants to make up for it."
Yu Fuguo took the opportunity to cover up the lie, and Li Zhaoliang said sadly: "Brother Huang paid for this beam with his life."
At this point, Li Zhaoliang burst into tears, Yu Fuguo followed suit, and the emperor and his ministers wept at each other.
After crying for a long time, Li Zhaoliang's sleeves became a little wet. Yu Fuguo advised: "Your Majesty, this is not the time to be sad. Jinling City has not been recovered yet, and Daliang Zhengtong cannot leave Jinling."
Li Chengdao nodded and said: "Okay, Mr. Fish, go down and rest, and I will calm down."
Yu Fuguo knew that Li Zhaoliang was waiting for news about Huairen and said: "Old slave, please retire. Your Majesty expresses my condolences."
After saying that, Yu Fuguo withdrew from the big account.
When Huairen saw Yu Fuguo leaving, he immediately walked into the tent. Li Zhaoliang asked anxiously: "Is the news true?"
He hopes the news is true.
Huairen nodded and said, "It's true. The people sent said that Yu Fuguo had been arguing with the empress in the city for a long time, and the Eastern Zhou army had begun to withdraw."
Li Zhaoliang said happily: "Okay, order the whole army to set off immediately!"
Huairen immediately sent an order, and the army and the people
The people immediately marched back to Jinling.
The officers and soldiers in the army did not know why. Huairen said that Eastern Zhou Dynasty was willing to return Jinling. When the officers and soldiers and the people heard about it, they all shouted long live the mountain.
.
Linjiang City.
Most of the troops here followed Long Chen's Eastern Expedition, leaving only more than a thousand to defend the city.
After receiving the news of the great victory on the front line, the soldiers in the city celebrated.
Taoist Master Xuanzhen was walking on the street, and the little Taoist boy looked at the celebrating soldiers and felt very amused.
Several children ran past, shouting: "Master Wang has a great victory, Master Wang has a great victory."
The little Taoist boy raised his head and asked Taoist Master Xuanzhen: "Master, has Long Chen won?"
Taoist priest Xuanzhen didn't speak, and senior brother Liang Yao said, "Do you think he won?"
Taoist Master Xuanzhen found a young general and asked: "General, I would like to ask, did Gui Tai and Li Chengdao die in the Battle of Jinling?"
All the soldiers in the city knew that Master Xuanzhen and his disciples were honored guests, and they were all very polite to them.
The young general replied: "Master Taoist, you are in a dilemma with this problem. I don't know."
"Only good news came from the front line, saying that Jinling City was destroyed and the king's army was victorious, that's all."
The message sent back was very simple, and the young general really didn't know it.
Taoist Master Xuanzhen nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, General."
The young general immediately returned the greeting: "Master Taoist, you're welcome."
Taoist Master Xuanzhen walked back slowly, and Liang Yao said: "Master, we should go with Long Chen."
Liang Yao really wanted to see the methods of the ghosts with his own eyes. The mission of their Liehuo Temple was to deal with the ghost clan.
If you haven't even seen the ghost tribe, how to deal with the ghost tribe?
Taoist Master Xuanzhen said: "Although the leader is a ghost, the battle is between human races, and I can't bear to watch it."
Moreover, if Long Chen and the empress are in danger, if they ask Xuanzhen to take action, Xuanzhen will definitely not be able to refuse.
He doesn't want to get involved in the fight between human races.
Little Taoist Said: "But Master, together with the ghost clan, they are the lackeys of the ghost clan."
Taoist priest Xuanzhen said nothing and continued walking back.
Liang Yao said: "It seems that Long Chen doesn't need our help."
Taoist Master Xuanzhen still said nothing and walked slowly back to his residence.
.
South of Jinling City.
Li Zhaoliang's army arrived outside the city. The people ran faster than the soldiers, hoping to return to their homes.
The south gate was open, there were no flags on the city, and no soldiers were seen.
Li Zhaoliang was riding on his horse, looking towards Jinling, feeling expectant and nervous at the same time.
Finally returned to the Imperial Capital of Nanliang and could continue to be emperor here.
However, he was afraid that Long Chen would suddenly come back and he would be the turtle in the urn.
Guitai and Li Zhaoliang can't stop him. How can He De, Li Zhaoliang, hold on?
"emperor."
Huairen was also worried. Li Zhaoliang stopped and said, "Huai Aiqing, go and have a look."
Huairen immediately led people into the city. People were swarming on the road, and Huairen had a hard time walking.
After the people entered the city, they thought that the houses in the city would be reduced to ruins by the war. The last time the Tianxiahui fought with the Forbidden Army, the north of the city was destroyed.
However, the city was in good order, and the damaged houses had been repaired, but the contents inside were gone.
Long Chen sent people to repair the house, but the things inside were stolen by Nanliang soldiers. There was nothing we could do about it.
"Great, my home is still here."
The people happily opened the door and went home, and the cheers spread throughout Jinling.
After Huairen looked at it, he determined that there was no army from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, so he immediately rode back.
When he went back, there were more people and horses couldn't get through, so Huairen had to squeeze out of the city on foot.
Arriving next to Li Zhaoliang, Huairen said excitedly: "Your Majesty, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty has really retreated."
Li Zhaoliang said happily: "Long Chen really keeps his word, he is a loyal minister of Daliang!"
