In the room, Li Yuanying had already fallen asleep. There was a lamp on the table, and the dim light made the room look even bleaker.
The cold wind outside was blowing softly, and pebbles hit the window lattice from time to time, making a little noise.
Li Yuanying suddenly opened his eyes and turned his head to look in the direction of the window.
Under the moonlight, a figure fell on the window paper.
Boom.
There was a knock on the window, the sound was very faint, and an even fainter sound came, almost drowned out by the wind.
"Please see His Highness the Third Prince."
Li Yuanying had a playful look on her face, put on her clothes and stood up, sitting next to the table. The unfinished tea was actually covered with a thin layer of ice.
"come in."
Li Yuanying looked at the window and responded softly.
The bolt inside the window moved, Feng He got in through the window, and carefully closed the window.
"Meet His Highness the Third Prince."
Feng He bowed respectfully.
He dared to sneak into Li Chengtong's room during the day, but now he chose to knock on the window to get in.
Feng He didn't dare to sneak in because he would be discovered and killed.
"Who are you? Why are you looking for me in the middle of the night?"
Li Yuanying looked at Feng He coldly.
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince forgets things a lot. I am the Colonel Feng He under General Shangguan Xiu of the Tianwei Army."
Li Yuanying's face changed slightly, and she looked at Feng He carefully under the light.
"It's you, weren't you killed?"
People from the Imperial City Division had been to Linjiang City, and the news they received at that time was that Feng He was killed by Long Chen and his body was dumped in a mass grave.
"I'm ashamed. When I was captured, my little one couldn't die, so he came back alive."
Li Yuanying looked at Feng He coldly and asked: "Then who are you working for now?"
Feng He replied truthfully: "For Long Cheng'en."
Li Yuanying was not surprised, and just said: "He almost killed you back then, and you still worked for him?"
Feng He replied: "At that time, everyone was his own master, and there was no personal hatred. When I returned to Daliang from the mass grave, the old general committed suicide and the Tianwei Army was destroyed. In order to beg for food, he thought of Long Chengen, so he
I went to Dazhou to seek refuge."
Li Yuanying asked coldly: "Come to the Imperial City Division and I will give you a good position." > Feng He smiled bitterly and said: "Your Highness is kind, but the superiors hate people like us so much that I dare not go back."
Li Chengdao didn't like Shangguan Wei. The Tianwei Legion was later disbanded and reorganized, and almost all the generals and commanders were killed. Li Chengdao didn't trust these people.
Li Yuanying was well aware of this matter and would not say more.
"How long have you been following Long Chengen?"
"Almost two years!"
"What position did you hold under him?"
"The younger one serves as the leader and controls the secret power for Long Chengen."
Li Yuanying's eyes flashed, she nodded slightly and said, "Tell me what kind of person Long Chengen is."
Li Yuanying only met him once in the Daming Palace. At that time, Long Chen was just a young eunuch.
Unexpectedly, in just three years, he would become a famous figure.
"Master Long is very complicated, very smart, extremely qualified, and also very lustful. He seems not to love power, but in fact he is full of fanaticism for power."
This is Feng He’s evaluation.
After listening, Li Yuanying nodded slightly and asked: "What is his ultimate goal? Destroy Nanliang?"
Feng He laughed dumbly and said: "Your Highness thinks highly of Master Long too much. Nanliang has a strong national power. How can Master Long dare to say that he will destroy Nanliang?"
"It's true that he is capable, but how does he compare to Long Ye? Back then, the Long family army swept across the world, Long Ye dared to say that he would destroy the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and Western Xia?"
Li Yuanying nodded and said: "Yes, the six martial emperors in Longye's family dominate the world at the end."
Li Yuanying suddenly changed the subject and asked: "Is Long Chengen Long Chen?"
Feng He immediately denied: "Absolutely not. Your Highness should know that Long Chen is as fierce as fire, and Long Chengen is as slippery as a loach. He is not a human being at all."
Li Yuanying asked coldly: "Will his temperament change drastically because of the battle at Bailang Mountain?"
Feng He thought for a moment, shook his head, and said: "Long Chen's character. I thought it was easy to change one's nature but hard to change. Back then, he even dared to scold someone when he was in power. How can such a person change his character?"
Li Yuanying nodded and said: "That's right, Long Chen's stubborn temper is unparalleled."
"One more question, is he really a eunuch?"
Feng He laughed and said: "Your Highness, Long Chengen once served the empress to bathe in Huaqing Pool."
Li Yuanying nodded slightly: "The rumors are wrong."
"Okay, what are you doing here tonight?"
Feng He took out a letter from his sleeve and presented it to Li Yuanying.
"Lord Long would like to meet with His Highness." ??
Li Yuanying read the letter, his eyes became cold, and asked: "Who found it?"
Of course he was asking about the transportation of silver coins, and Li Yuanying thought that he did it very secretly.
"His Highness's motorcade passed through Xifeng Town, which is the territory of Tianxiahui. Lord Long has a very good relationship with Tianxiahui."
Li Yuanying knew that Long Chen had a good relationship with Tianxiahui, and also knew that Tianxiahui had a strong ability to inquire about information.
"Long Chengen wants to meet me. What does he want to say?"
Feng Hebai said: "I can only express my own speculation, but I don't dare to say that it is definitely correct."
Li Yuanying nodded: "Say!"
Feng Hebai said: "Lord Long was ordered to pacify Jing Tianlie, but there are four martial arts masters at Jade Buddha Pass, so he will definitely lose this battle."
"The way he wants to break the situation is to unite with His Highness to kill the Crown Prince, and then use the silver coins and the matter of killing the Crown Prince to blackmail His Highness, forcing His Highness to withdraw, and even forcing His Highness to deal with Jing Tianlie together."
"In this way, this dead game will come alive."
Li Yuanying thought carefully about what Feng He said, and there was no logical problem.
"Why didn't he ask the prince to kill me together?"
Li Yuanying asked the same question.
Feng Hebei said: "Your Highness has a handle, but the Prince does not. Lord Long can blackmail His Highness, but not the Prince."
Li Yuanying secretly blamed herself for not doing things secretly.
"What if I don't go to my appointment?"
Feng He replied: "Lord Long will inform the superiors of this matter."
Li Yuanying's face turned cold, he knew the consequences of this matter.
"Tell me, what would happen if I killed him in a sneak attack while on an appointment?"
Feng He said awkwardly: "Your Highness is in such a difficult position."
Li Yuanying sneered: "You Have you really become his loyal subordinate?"
Feng He sighed, pulled up his sleeves, stretched out his hand, and said, "Your Highness, please feel your pulse."
Li Yuanying gently placed his finger on Feng He's pulse, his face changed slightly, and he said, "Are you poisoned?"
Feng He smiled miserably and said: "Yes, this is the Empress's poison pill. Long Chengen actually doesn't trust me. If Long Chengen dies, I will have no choice but to ask the Empress for the medicine myself, so please understand, Your Highness."
Li Yuanying nodded slightly and said, "Long Chengen only wants to see me once?"
Feng Hebao said: "Yes."
Li Yuanying asked: "How is Long Chengen's cultivation?"
Feng He replied: "He relied on Yang Jing Stone to break through. This is absolutely true."
This means that although Long Chen has the realm of the Martial Emperor, he does not have the strength of the Martial Emperor, so there is no need to worry about not being able to defeat him.
Li Yuanying asked: "What's so shameful about Long Chengen?"
Feng He replied: "Yes."
Li Yuanying secretly rejoiced: "Say."
Feng He smiled and said: "It's the same. He deducted money from the Ministry of Industry and the Tianxiahui and put it into his own pocket."
Li Yuanying chuckled and said: "I see, you told me so much, aren't you afraid that Long Chengen will kill you?"
Feng He said: "Your Highness will not tell Long Chengen."
Li Yuanying nodded and asked again: "Long Chengen only wants to replace Jing Tianlie? Do you really have any other ideas?"
Feng He said: "If you have ideas, you must have strength. His limit is to become a powerful minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he is not even as good as Jing Tianlie. After all, his cultivation and life span are there."
Li Yuanying also knew that one could live up to three years by taking yangite.
"Are you leaving yourself a way out?"
Li Yuanying is in charge of the Imperial City Department and knows that in the spy business, he has the strictest mouth.
Feng He just told too many truths, which is illogical.
Feng He smiled awkwardly and replied: "Master Long only has three years to live. Where he will go after three years, I don't even know."
Li Yuanying took out a token from his clothes, threw it to Feng He, and said: "Keep an eye on Long Chengen for me. If you come to the Imperial City Division in three years, I will give you the position of deputy chief."
Feng He took the token, tried hard to suppress the ecstasy in his heart, and said, "Thank you for your advice, Your Highness!"
