The empress sat at the head, Long Chen sat in the second seat, Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi were on the other side, and the other generals took their seats in turn.
The empress said: "Donna from Dingxi County sent news that there are signs of invasion in the Uz Kingdom."
Emperor Lingyi said in surprise: "Us State invaded? Us State is across the desert, how can it be possible to invade?"
The invasion of Uzbekistan must pass through the desert. It is difficult for a large army to cross the desert and it is difficult to keep up with logistical supplies.
Gongsun Linglong said: "It must be the bald donkeys of Xixia who are determined to bring the Us army back to the country."
Gongsun Linglong had fought in Xixia and knew that Pu Xuan and Tang Guolong were envoys to Wu State to ask for help.
Emperor Lingyi asked: "Queen Mother, has Donna seen the Uzbek army? Or has anyone got the exact information?"
The empress said: "The merchants who came back from the Us state said that the Us state is preparing to invade, but whether the news is accurate or not cannot be determined."
It stands to reason that for major military and state affairs, there must be accurate information.
However, the country of Uz was separated by the desert, so it was difficult to get accurate information, and the generals understood this.
"What do you think?"
The empress asked the generals present.
No one here knows about the country of Uz, and no one answered when I asked.
The empress looked at Long Chen and asked, "What does King Wu think?"
Long Chen thought for a moment and said: "It is said that there are many masters in the Wu State. We are currently at war with Nanliang, and we will also fight against the ghost tribe in the future. If the threat from the Wu State is not eliminated, it will always be a hidden danger."
The empress asked: "Then how do you think this hidden danger should be solved?"
Long Chen shook his head and said: "I don't know much about Us Country, and I don't have any information about Us Country now. I can't tell you how to solve the hidden dangers."
After all the talk, there is still no way.
Gongsun Linglong said: "It doesn't matter what country it is, we will fight it when it comes."
Gongsun Ming secretly tugged on Gongsun Linglong's sleeves and signaled Gongsun Linglong to say less.
The empress frowned and said, "Let's let it go first."
The generals stood up and retreated.
Qingren County.
Li Chengdao walked into the palace and entered the courtyard where the ghost fetus was.
"This slave pays homage to the Holy Son."
Li Chengdao knelt down and kowtowed respectfully.
Guitai said coldly: "How has Long Chen been doing recently? I heard that he has gone into seclusion again?"
Gui Fei just received news that Long Chen was practicing in seclusion.
Familiar formula, familiar smell, Gui Fei could smell it.
Li Chengdao replied: "Some time ago, the empress received a military report from Xixia guard Donna, saying that there were signs of invasion from the Us state."
"Afterwards, news spread that Long Chen was practicing in seclusion. It seems that Long Chen actually went to Xixia under the pretext of seclusion."
Guitai nodded slightly, and the cause and effect were all right. As expected, it was different when Wang Wei arrived.
"That's what it looks like, but what does it actually look like?"
Guitai looked at Li Chengdao coldly.
Li Chengdao responded: "Actually, Long Chen is still in Linhu City, and he is still secretly mobilizing troops to attack Zhangcheng."
"The news from the Us Kingdom is not certain. I just heard from a businessman that Long Chen was attacking in the east and west in an attempt to lure our army to attack."
Guitai asked coldly: "Is this what Wang Wei said?"
Li Chengdao did not hide anything and replied: "Yes, Wang Wei said that Long Chen is still in the city and has not gone to Xixia at all."
The ghost boy leaned on the chair and muttered to himself: "Long Chen is repeating his old tricks and pretending not to be in the city. How do you think we should use it?"
Long Chen was acting, and Guitai thought he could cooperate with Long Chen in a show and take advantage at the same time.
Li Chengdao said nothing, waiting for Gui Fei's instructions.
"If Long Chen is not here, then if I attack Zhongwucheng, Long Chen cannot appear. Do you think so or not?"
Guite looked at Li Chengdao.
Since Long Chen is acting and pretending to go to Xixia, then the ghosts take the opportunity to attack, so Long Chen cannot appear and must maintain the setting of not being in the city.
Li Chengdao replied: "I'm just afraid that Long Chen will jump out."
Guitai laughed and said: "If he jumps out, wouldn't he fail in seclusion?"
If Long Chen takes action to rescue Zhong Wucheng, Guitei will expose Long Chen's lies.
It seemed that the ghost had played a trick on Long Chen.
Li Chengdao replied: "The Holy Son is wise."
Guitai sneered and said: "What's wrong with him? I just want to play tricks on him."
"You are going to send people to attack Zhongwucheng, but I want to see if Long Chen can get out."
Li Chengdao asked: "Who should be sent to lead the army? Please let the Holy Son make it clear."
Guitai said coldly: "Of course you will lead the troops."
Li Chengdao's heart trembled. Did Guitai mean that he was being used as a bait?
Send ordinary people to lead the army, and Di Luoxi can defeat them.
For Li Chengdao to lead the troops, the empress or Long Chen must take action personally.
But, what if Long Chen really takes action?
"What? Are you scared?"
Seeing that Li Chengdao was silent, Gui Tai guessed that Li Chengdao was afraid of being killed.
"If you can't beat me, why can't you run away?"
Guite made sarcastic remarks, and Li Chengdao bowed and said, "I'm ashamed of myself."
Guitai sneered and said: "Go ahead, I want to see if Long Chen comes out or not."
Li Chengdao withdrew from the palace and immediately ordered 100,000 troops to attack Zhongwucheng.
A businessman in civilian clothes appeared at the riverside pier, and pedestrians and merchants were boarding the ship.
This person is none other than Long Chen.
After the news of the retreat was released, Long Chen left Linhu City.
The so-called false and true, Long Chen said that he went to Xixia for seclusion, the ghost will definitely judge that he did not go, this is a trap.
Xiao Yuer found Wang Wei and asked where Long Chen was.
Wang Wei made it clear that Long Chen was in the city and had not gone anywhere. This was a trap.
Xiao Yuer sent the news back to Li Chengdao, confirming that Long Chen was lurking in the city.
In fact, Long Chen had quietly left Linhu City and rushed to Mobei.
Pedestrians lined up to board the boat. Long Chen paid the money and boarded an ordinary passenger boat.
After all the guests boarded the ship, the captain of the ship shouted and the passenger ship slowly left the dock.
The sail was unfurled, and the passenger ship drifted northward along the current, and soon reached the north shore.
After landing, Long Chen did not go to the contact point between the government and Xichang.
This matter must be kept absolutely confidential. Once the whereabouts are revealed, not only Long Chen will be in danger, but the Empress and the others will be in even greater danger.
Long Chen found the nearest city, spent money to buy a fast horse, and immediately rushed to Yanmen Pass.
Zhennancheng.
Xiaoqin quietly returned to the handsome man's house, where Ji Xianxian was looking at the map.
"Madam, I'm back."
Xiaoqin smiled and took out the exercises written by Long Chen.
"Why did you come back? It was a few days later than I expected."
Ji Xianxian immediately picked up the technique.
Xiaoqin's face was not red, her heart was not beating, and she lied: "Because it rained halfway and the road was blocked, I could only wait for the rain to stop at the inn before I came out."
Ji Xianxian did not delve into the matter of time, her mind was on the exercises.
"Long Family's Secret of Longevity"
After Ji Xianxian studied it carefully, he immediately started practicing according to the exercises.
