Long Chen slept until three o'clock in the morning before waking up. Xiang Ning was lying next to him, watching with a smile.
"What are you looking at?"
"Look at how handsome you are."
Xiang Ning got into her arms and the caressing made her feel very comfortable.
"What time is it? I still haven't gotten up yet."
Di Luoxi opened the door and came in, followed by Di Lingyi.
Xiang Ning got up in a hurry, put on her pajamas, got out of bed and said, "Meet your Highness the Princess."
Di Luoxi glanced at the pamphlet on the table and asked, "Did you get the stuff?"
Xiang Ning slipped out of the room and closed the door.
"You gave it to me last night. Sure enough, there are still many missing important strongholds."
"I perfected the offensive plan based on what Zhou Zheng gave me."
Long Chen didn't take off his clothes and got up from the bed directly.
Emperor Lingyi read the plan and carefully calculated the strength and personnel.
"Xifeng City is an important town, why did you only arrange for a thousand people?"
Xifeng City is an important gate of Tianxiahui in the west. There are many people there, so there must be experts in charge.
Long Chen smiled mysteriously: "That's the town I built. A thousand people are enough."
Di Luoxi asked suspiciously: "Could it be that... Tian Liang was bribed by you?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "You can't say bribery, this guy is a fence-sitter."
Back then, Long Chen led his troops to fight Jingtian Lie at Jade Buddha Pass, and Tian Liang gave Long Chen a good elixir.
Long Chen reciprocated the favor and built Xifeng Town into Xifeng City, and also recommended Tian Liang to be the city lord.
Of course, at that time, Long Chen didn't know that Tianxia would be the mastermind behind the killing of the Long Family Army.
Long Chen just wanted to cultivate his own people within the Tianxiahui and dig into the corners of the Tianxiahui.
"Has the plan been finalized?"
Di Luoxi asked: "If it's confirmed, I'll show it to Zhang Qian and the others and remember what everyone wants to do."
They will lead their own troops to destroy the important halls of the Tianxiahui.
"This is my plan. Do you have anything to add?"
Di Lingyi shook his head and said: "You are smarter than us, just do what you say."
Di Luoxi also felt that Long Chen's plan was the best, and if they interfered, problems would arise.
"Okay, let's get familiar with Zhang Qian and the others first."
Long Chen gave the plan to Di Luoxi.
....
The south courtyard of the city.
Yan Xing walked into Ji Ba's room. The first elder and the second elder were talking about leaving for Nanliang in four days.
Yan Xing heard that he was leaving soon and was looking forward to the trip.
Jinling is the most prosperous capital city in the world. It is said that there are many merchants, literati and countless beauties there.
"President, Master Hong said that Long Chengen was very unhappy and threatened to send troops to attack Xixia."
Sifanglou had just returned from delivering the letter, and Yan Xing immediately came in to report.
"This Long Chengen is bluffing with me."
Ji Ba burst out laughing after hearing this, looking quite proud.
Niu Yang smiled and said: "If Long Chengen really wants to take action, he will never say anything."
"He was just very angry. He just talked about it and never dared to take action."
Gao Nian nodded and said: "Yes, I guess he wouldn't dare. At most, he would kill the monk who sneaked in."
After the three people said this, Yan Xing finally realized that this was the case.
Ji Ba smiled and said: "Since time is running out, let's enjoy the last days."
"Tell Hong Qi, don't give Long Chengen too much face, he represents Tianxiahui."
"When dealing with Long Chengen, you must be firm and don't be timid."
Ji Ba expected that Long Chen would not dare to cause trouble and his lifespan was about to expire, so he looked down upon him even more.
Yan Xing bowed and said, "I accept your orders."
Yan Xing left the room and immediately sent someone to deliver a message to Hong Qi.
....
He Mansion.
A boy came into the room holding a post.
"Master, Long Shuai's Mansion sent an invitation."
There was a young man sitting in the room, flipping through a book helplessly.
This person is none other than He Wenbai.
"Letter from Long Shuai's Mansion? Show it to me."
Hearing that Long Chen had received a letter, He Wenbai suddenly became interested.
The boy presented the post, He Wenbai opened it and read it, and said with a smile: "Okay."
Holding the post, He Wenbai went outside, and a middle-aged man immediately stopped him and scolded him: "You bastard, why don't you go back to study!"
This man is He Wenbai's father.
"Dad, Dazhu Kingdom invited me to Zhenfo Temple to discuss poetry."
He Wenbai was straightforward and confident.
His father said angrily: "You dare to lie to me. Go back and study hard. You are worthy of discussing poetry with Dazhuguo!"
He Wenbai presented the post and said with a smile: "Dad, Dazhu Kingdom really came to invite you."
His father read the post carefully and found that it was really a letter from Long Chen.
"Since you are invited by Dazhu Kingdom, then you can go."
"Study well with Dazhu Kingdom. If you can learn one-tenth of it, you will be able to honor your ancestors."
He Wenbai chuckled and said, "I know, kid."
After saying that, He Wenbai walked out of He Mansion in a hurry, forgetting to even ride his horse.
After walking a few dozen steps, he met a male servant who blocked his way and said, "Master He, I am from the Longshuai Mansion. Please come to my house."
He Wenbai felt strange and asked: "Didn't you talk about the Zhenfo Temple? How come you are talking about your house?"
The manservant smiled and said: "That's what the master ordered."
He Wenbai immediately followed the male servant to Long Shuai's Mansion.
As soon as they entered the door, they saw Hu Zhiheng and Long Chen drinking tea and chatting under the tree.
"Dazhu Kingdom."
"coming."
Long Chen stood up with a smile, and He Wenbai sat down.
"Dazhuguo just said he was at Zhenfo Temple, why are you here again?"
Hu Zhiheng said with a smile: "Dazhu Kingdom made an appointment to go to Rouge Lane, and the Zhenfo Temple was just an excuse."
He Wenbai said with great joy: "Dazhuguo is really a close friend of ours. I am looked down upon by my father at home. If it weren't for Dazhuguo's post, I wouldn't be able to go out."
Speaking of this, Hu Zhiheng continued to express his bitterness: "Who says it's not true? I am also controlled by my father."
He Wenbai said: "It seems that my grandfather said that we have made friends with Dazhu Kingdom, but we have not learned the benefits, only the disadvantages."
The two of them talked to each other like inmates communicating.
"Okay, you two, the grievance meeting is over. It's almost time. Let's go to Rouge Lane."
Long Chen saw how pitiful they were.
The two were overjoyed and said with a smile: "I just want to trouble Dazhuguo. We don't even bring any money when we go out."
Long Chen laughed and scolded: "You two have gone too far, and you still want me to invite you."
"Okay, I'll pay for it tonight."
After bringing three good horses over, Long Chen took the two of them to Rouge Lane.
As night falls, the lanterns in Rouge Lane are lit up, and the sound of singing starts to sound, making it very lively.
Entering Rouge Lane, He Wenbai and Hu Zhiheng felt resurrected again.
"It feels so familiar."
"This is called life. It's really hard to study at home."
"I'm going to vent a lot tonight."
Arriving at the entrance of Wangqing Pavilion, Yueniang greeted her with a smile.
"Please come in, three gentlemen."
Long Chen dressed up simply, but Yue Niang could recognize it.
After entering Wangqing Pavilion, He Wenbai and Hu Zhiheng didn't do anything formal, just ordered the two girls and went to play.
