The Yufu Kingdom wanted to take Li Chengdao back to Jinling City, but Xuanjizi felt that Li Chengdao was in critical condition and could not travel long distances.
Zhong Gui also said: "The emperor is dying now, how can he return to Jinling City?"
Yu Fuguo said helplessly: "So what? If you stay here, there is no medicine to cure the emperor's injury. Long Chen may invade at any time!"
"Now I'm going back to Jinling at the same time, maybe there's still a glimmer of hope!"
"And again...and again..."
Yu Fuguo wanted to say it but dared not.
Furthermore, if Li Chengdao died in Wushun City, no one knows what kind of chaos Jinling City would be like.
When a powerful enemy invades the territory, the emperor dies suddenly, and the princes must compete for the throne.
Li Chengdao's will is still in Wushun City. If he doesn't go back soon, Daliang will be in chaos.
After hearing this, Zhong Gui had no idea in his mind and just lay on the edge of the bed and continued to cry.
Xuanjizi thought about it and felt that Yu Fuguo was right.
"We should continue to suffer the chaos and the emperor is in danger, how can we not do this!"
"Immediately prepare a soft sedan, which will be carried by eighteen strong men, put on nine layers of quilts, and return to Jinling City immediately!"
Xuan Jizi was Li Chengdao's imperial advisor. When he spoke, everyone had to listen.
Yu Fuguo immediately found thirty-six reliable and strong soldiers, found a sedan, and changed it into a bed, with a sunshade on top.
After laying out the bedding, he immediately carried Li Chengdao back to Jinling, accompanied by Zhong Gui, Yu Fuguo and the Imperial City Secretary to protect him all the way, and Xuan Jizi also rode with him.
When leaving the city, Xuanjizi left an order for Tong Yuan to concurrently serve as the garrison of Wushun City, and Xue Ze to concurrently serve as the garrison of Xianhe City.
The team hurriedly headed east. After Xuanjizi left, the soldiers in Wushun City dispersed.
The emperor ran away, Xuanjizi ran away, and the Yufu Kingdom also ran away. Without a general, the soldiers in the city were beaten to pieces by Long Chen. Who dared to defend the city?
...
Linjiang City.
Gongsun Ming walked on the city wall, looking in the direction of Wushun City in the south, and said with some regret: "Li Chengdao was seriously injured, all the generals were killed, Wushun City and Xianhe City are just around the corner, why don't the Holy Lord and King Wu attack?"
Gongsun Ming very much hoped to send troops to capture Wushun City and Xianhe City and expand the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty southward.
But the empress stood still, which Gongsun Ming felt was a pity.
Zhao Heng said: "The Holy One has his own considerations, and he must be more thoughtful than us."
Gongsun Ming shook his head regretfully. He knew that Long Chen was not in the city and had crossed the river two days ago, probably to conquer the Monkey Pass.
"Without King Wu, the soldiers of Zhou Dynasty would not be able to fight..."
Gongsun Ming sighed slightly, with some complaints in his tone.
Zhao Heng immediately said: "My lord, on the battlefield, mistakes in decision-making are at the cost of the death of soldiers."
"We are lucky to have King Wu in our great Zhou Dynasty. If not for King Wu, how many of our brothers would have died in the battle three days ago?"
"My master often praises King Wu for using his troops like ghosts and gods. I hope you should ask King Wu for advice more!"
Gongsun Ming was speechless.
As night fell, Gongsun Ming returned to the barracks to rest.
During the meeting, a speedboat rode the northwest wind and quickly passed across the river, stopping at the dock north of Linjiang City.
The soldiers on the city immediately set up their crossbows and pointed them at the clipper. The soldiers held up torches and shouted, "Who is it? Tell me your name!"
Long Chen raised the torch and replied: "It's me, Long Chen!"
The soldier discovered that Long Chen was back and asked doubtfully: "Isn't King Wu in the city? When did he leave the city?" www.八一zw.????m
Long Chen smiled and jumped onto the shore.
As he was walking up, Long Chen suddenly felt a chill standing on end.
"not good!"
A wooden dagger fell from Long Chen's sleeve and he quickly ran towards the empress' room.
The soldiers around him saw a shadow passing by, and Long Chen had disappeared.
"Am I dazzled?"
The soldier next to him looked at the direction in which the shadow disappeared in shock. He had never seen such a fast movement.
"This...has King Wu become an immortal?"
The other soldiers were also shocked by Long Chen's speed.
Inside the handsome manor.
In the room, the empress was wearing light blue pajamas, sitting cross-legged on the bed, meditating.
Yingfeng stood next to her. She was wearing a coat and boots.
The weather in late autumn is cold, especially at night.
However, the empress was not afraid of the severe cold and could only wear a pair of pajamas. Yingfeng thought that the empress' cultivation level had improved, so she was not afraid of the cold.
The true energy in the Dantian slowly rises, constantly impacting the heart vessels, and the true energy enters the bloodstream smoothly.
The empress has a special bloodline constitution, so she can practice very quickly.
When she was reaching the climax of her practice, the empress suddenly trembled, turned her head and looked eastward with wide eyes.
Yingfeng was startled and asked, "Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
The empress immediately grabbed the wooden phoenix-wing boring machine next to her and looked to the east with a frightened face, and she broke out in a cold sweat.
"Your Majesty?"
Yingfeng didn't know what happened, why was the empress suddenly so frightened?
boom!
The door was knocked off, and a shadow rushed in. Yingfeng was shocked, and the eagle claw chain around his waist flew towards the door.
The eagle's claws were caught, the shadow stopped, and Long Chen appeared in the room.
"Are you okay?"
Long Chen asked in surprise.
When the empress heard the voice and saw Long Chen coming back, her expression softened.
"East?"
The empress said something, and Long Chen frowned and said, "Follow me!"
Long Chen's body flashed and disappeared from the room. The empress held the phoenix wings and turned into a gust of wind, following Long Chen out of the room.
Yingfeng froze on the spot, she couldn't catch up at all.
Long Chen came out of the room and immediately climbed up the east city wall. Following the direction he felt, Long Chen looked to the south.
The night was no obstacle, Long Chen could see clearly.
But after looking for a long time, Long Chen found no trace of that thing.
"illusion?"
The empress didn't see the shadow of that thing either.
Long Chen shook his head slightly and said: "No, he came here just now and then left."
That feeling is like a ghost.
He suddenly appeared in Linjiang City just now, stopped for a while, and then left immediately.
The empress was a little frightened and said, "Are you coming for me?"
Long Chen looked at it for a while and said: "I don't know, but one thing is certain. After he leaves here, he will definitely find Li Chengdao."
After defeating Li Chengdao, Long Chen did not continue the pursuit and did not attack Wushun City and Xianhe City as Gongsun Ming said. Instead, he stood still and solved the Monkey Maze Pass first.
Because there were not many troops in Jiangnan, after capturing Wushun City and Xianhe City, there was no force to defend the city.
In addition, Long Chen also had another idea: since the ghost fetus is not here, Li Chengdao was so seriously injured that he would die if he returned.
Once Li Chengdao died, there would be no general in the city, and the soldiers would scatter like birds and beasts, and the two cities would collapse without attack.
If you immediately use the military skills to push the soldiers in the city into panic, they will fight to the death.
That's why Long Chen didn't send troops. This was also the empress's idea.
But now, things have changed.
If the ghost fetus appears here, the ghost fetus will definitely look for Li Chengdao.
If Li Chengdao hadn't died, he would have joined Guitei, and the two would have merged.
"The combination of Gui Fei and Li Chengdao... it will be difficult to handle."
The empress held the phoenix wings in her hand, the cold wind blew her light blue pajamas, her long hair caressed Long Chen, and the alluring body fragrance came...
Long Chen turned to look at the empress...
The empress looked at Long Chen and said coldly: "I just know it's useless!"
Yingfeng rushed up from the city, and the empress turned around and went back to her room.
Long Chen smiled helplessly and said to the cold wind: "I want to, but I'm not allowed!"
