After Gongsun Linglong received the letter, he immediately crossed the river to Xianhe City.
Seeing Gongsun Linglong, the empress smiled kindly and said, "Come, Linglong, sit here."
Gongsun Linglong glanced at Long Chen and sat next to the empress with a smile.
"How is your practice?"
The empress straightened Gongsun Linglong's messy hair. Gongsun Linglong said with a smile: "It's good, but not as fast as the princesses."
Gongsun Linglong looked at Long Chen and said, "Let me eat meat. After eating meat, my cultivation speed will be so fast."
Gongsun Linglong envied Zhang Qian, Dugu Jiali and the others for their rapid cultivation speed, and also wanted to eat meat to practice.
Long Chen shook his head and said: "No, I can't do this without Lao Zhuguo's consent."
The empress also said: "You are no longer a human being if you eat meat. You can't eat it."
Gongsun Linglong knew it, but she just thought that since everyone around her had eaten it, it didn't matter to her.
"The Holy One also ate it, so what should I be afraid of?"
The empress said: "If I don't give you food, there will be a reason why I won't give you food. I came to you this time because I have something important for you to do."
Gongsun Linglong asked: "Do you want to attack by force?"
She thought Long Chen was going to attack and asked her to take the lead.
The empress looked at Long Chen and said, "He will make arrangements, just listen to him."
Gongsun Linglong looked at Long Chen, and Long Chen said: "It's just blacksmithing."
Hearing about blacksmithing, Gongsun Linglong said displeasedly: "You called me here just to blacksmith? I won't do it!"
Long Chen explained: "I have thought of a way to break through Linhu City. I need a few giant iron chains. You have to do this."
"Success or failure depends on you. If you do it on time, everything will be easy."
"If we can't do it, we will have to attack by force, and we will suffer at least 100,000 casualties."
When Long Chen said this, Gongsun Linglong became serious.
"Okay, that's okay, tell me how to do it?"
The empress stood up and said, "Okay, you just have to follow King Wu's arrangements for specific matters."
Gongsun Linglong bowed and said, "Send me off to you, Your Majesty."
After the empress left, Gongsun Linglong walked to Long Chen's side, put one foot on the coffee table, picked up Long Chen's tea and drank it.
Lifting up her skirt, Long Chen looked at Gongsun Linglong's bold and bold appearance and said, "You don't think I need to be so proactive, right? What do you think this place is?"
Gongsun Linglong put down the tea cup, took her feet off the coffee table, and said, "Hey, the Holy One is here, what else do you dare to do?"
These words sounded like a provocation. Long Chen stood up, picked up Gongsun Linglong and pressed him on the chair, saying: "So what if the Holy Lord is here? Believe it or not, I will take care of you now!"
Gongsun Linglong opened her hands and said provocatively: "Come on, my sister is still afraid of you."
Having said that, Long Chen would not be a man if he didn't take action.
meeting hall.
Long Chen was sitting at the head, Wu Jian was on the left, Gongsun Linglong was on the right, and there was a map on the table.
"There is an iron mine here, but the people have escaped. I will transfer people from the army to assist you, and I will also find a way to transfer the surrounding craftsmen there."
"Time is very urgent. We must prepare the chains before the rainy season comes."
Long Chen pointed to a location, which was the location of the iron mine.
Gongsun Linglong listened obediently and nodded slowly.
Just now, Long Chen had tidied up Gongsun Linglong, and he did whatever Long Chen said.
"Are you leaving today?"
Long Chen asked, Gongsun Linglong looked angry and said: "Can I still ride a horse today? Who are you!"
Long Chen was speechless, and Wu Jian tried hard not to laugh.
After Gongsun Linglong finished speaking, she realized that Wu Jian was beside her and said, "We will set off tomorrow. I am too tired today."
After saying that, Gongsun Linglong stood up and slowly walked back to the room to rest.
"Young General, after so many years, I still haven't learned to show mercy to others."
Wu Jian smiled and joked, but Long Chen had nothing to say.
The next day, Gongsun Linglong took people to the iron mines. Long Chen hired craftsmen around him at high prices, and the process of casting iron chains began.
In the courtyard of the city, Yu Fuguo sat in the middle, and Chen Lian, dressed in tatters and with a haggard face, sat on the stone bench next to him.
There were more than 30 spies in the yard, some sitting on stools and some sitting on the floor. Without exception, their clothes were all dirty, like a bereaved dog.
Lu Ji came in from the door, followed by several people carrying several large baskets with meat buns on them.
"The buns are here."
Lu Ji put it down, and the spy rushed forward, snatched it, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Lu Ji took the bun and handed it to Chen Lian. Chen Lian devoured it and almost choked himself to death.
Lu Ji poured a bowl of water, and Chen Lian swallowed the bun stuck in his throat.
After eating a few steamed buns, Chen Lian put his hands on the table and felt alive.
Others, too, leaned against the wall when they were full, and some were already asleep.
"Father-in-law, we escaped all the way from Jinling and evaded pursuit before we got here."
After escaping from the Imperial City Division, Chen Lian led his people to Xianhe City.
They were chased by officers and soldiers on the way, and when they arrived at Xianhe City, only 32 people were left.
Looking at Chen Lian, Yu Fuguo felt a little uncomfortable.
No matter what, these people are all his subordinates, because he rebelled and implicated the entire Imperial City Division.
For a moment, Yu Fuguo didn't know how to answer.
"Don't blame father-in-law, he is helpless too."
Lu Ji felt uncomfortable seeing his former colleagues in such a state of desolation.
Yu Fuguo stood up and said: "You guys wait, I will go to King Wu and ask him to take you in."
After saying that, Yu Fuguo went out to find Long Chen.
When they arrived at the courtyard, Yu Fuguo entered Long Chen's room.
"I'm going to pay my respects to King Wu."
Yu Fuguo's face looked sad, Long Chen put down the map and asked: "For the Imperial City Department's affairs?"
Long Chen already knew that so many people had entered the city.
Yu Fuguo nodded and said: "Speaking of which, I was the one who harmed them."
Long Chen stood up and said: "It depends on their own wishes. Those who want to stay will stay, and those who want to leave will be given money."
Yu Fuguo paid his respects and said, "Thank you very much, King Wu. I will resign."
Back in the courtyard, Chen Lian was talking to Lu Ji.
Yu Fuguo walked in and said to everyone: "King Wu has said that those who are willing to stay will stay, and those who want to leave will pay for their settlement."
Chen Lian said with tears in his eyes: "Settlement allowance, our family is gone, what else do we need for settlement allowance? I want to kill the ghost, Li Chengdao, I want revenge!"
The spy in the yard got up and cursed: "Revenge!"
They worked hard for Daliang, and in the end they were reduced to exterminating the nine tribes. The hatred in their hearts was like a torrential river, which would not be able to be vented unless Daliang was submerged.
"Okay, if nothing else, our family will definitely avenge you!"
Yufu State took in Chen Lian and others and reorganized the Imperial City Division in Xianhe City.
Chen Lian settled in the city, and Yu Fuguo arranged a small courtyard for him.
After a few days of rest, Chen Lian's health got better.
Lu Ji walked in from outside, holding a bottle in his hand.
"Is Siwu Chen feeling better?"
Lu Ji walked in with a smile, and Chen Lian said with a smile: "It's better, but I have some abdominal pain."
Lu Ji handed him the bottle and said, "King Wu said that you were injured in Longxing Valley and this elixir will work."
Chen Lian took the bottle and said in surprise: "King Wu actually still remembers me?"
Lu Ji sat down and said, "You and King Wu have known each other for a long time."
Chen Liangan laughed and said, "Brother, you are making fun of me."
Seeing that Chen Lian was holding the bottle and not using it, Lu Ji smiled and said, "Eat it. King Wu is not Li Chengdao, so he will not give poison."
Chen Lian smiled awkwardly and said, "This habit has not changed."
After saying that, Chen Lian opened the bottle, poured out a pill, raised his head and swallowed it.
After the elixir enters the abdomen, a cool feeling spreads, and the abdominal pain gradually relieves.
