"The old slave found out about Honggui Inn. It seems that they hid Long Chengen."
The Imperial City Division is not a waste and can find Long Chen's hiding place from clues.
Li Chengdao asked: "Whose family is Honggui Inn?"
Yu Fuguo hesitated and dared not say...
Li Chengdao said angrily: "Say!"
Yu Fuguo said: "It is the property of the father of the country..."
Honggui Inn is the property of the Long Gang, but it is apparently the property of the patriarch Huo Xingwen.
Huo Xingwen is the father of the current queen.
Li Chengdao immediately realized something was wrong and said, "Check again to find out who is behind it!"
It is impossible for Huo Xingwen, the head of the state, to collude with Long Chen. Someone must have deliberately arranged this.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Ji Xianxian deliberately arranged for Long Chen to stay at Honggui Inn just to clear the relationship with the Long Gang.
Ji Xianxian was very shrewd and had expected that Li Chengdao would conduct a thorough investigation.
Yu Fuguo bowed and said, "Old slave accepts the decree."
After Yu Fuguo left, Li Chengping, the head of the imperial hospital, came in and paid homage: "I pay my respects to the emperor."
Li Chengdao asked: "How are their injuries?"
There are a group of people living in Tai Hospital now, all of whom are seriously injured.
Li Chengping replied: "The president of the Tianxiahui has been sleeping. He still has arrow wounds left by Long Chengen. He can barely survive according to the poison doctor's prescription."
Li Chengdao asked: "Can Ji Ba wake up?"
Li Chengping replied: "Wei Chen is not sure. His injuries are too serious and he is now a living dead."
In ancient times, the living dead were vegetative.
Li Chengdao smiled slightly and said, "Okay, let him be a living dead."
The immortal Ji Ba is the best for Li Chengdao.
It can be used to control people in the Tianxiahui without posing any threat to oneself. It can be used completely as a tool.
Li Chengping immediately bowed and said, "Wei Chen understands."
Li Chengdao asked other people, and Li Chengping replied one by one: "General Chiang's injury is very serious. Although there is no danger to his life, he... is basically disabled."
Li Chengdao's brows formed the character "Chuan".
There are not many masters in Nanliang. Jiang Hui is the commander of the Forbidden Army and the general of Nanliang.
Now he was beaten into a cripple by Long Chen.
"Although General He Xu's injury is not serious, it can be cured."
He Xu is the general of South Camp. He was shot by random arrows during the battle last night, so he did not face Long Chen.
"Zuo Si's abdomen was scratched to pieces. Just sew it up and rest."
"The other generals are all fine and can be cured."
Li Chengping reported them one by one. After listening, Li Chengdao said: "Okay, you can go."
Li Chengping exited the imperial study.
Li Chengdao stood up and walked to the window, staring at the flowers and trees outside the window in a daze.
This was the first time Li Chengdao faced off against Long Chen, and Li Chengdao was defeated miserably.
Long Chen sneaked into Jinling City alone, slipped into the palace treasury, stole the secret book, and killed Lianxin, but Li Chengdao was not aware of it.
It also provoked a conflict between Li Chengdao and Tianxiahui, causing the two sides to attack each other, killing four masters and crippling a Forbidden Army commander.
The Forbidden Army lost tens of thousands, Fuyuan Tower was burned to rubble, and the power of the World Society was no longer there.
"Long Chengen...Long Chengen..."
Li Chengdao murmured to himself...
"Long Ye, is what you gave me true or false?"
Li Chengdao stood blankly for a long time, then turned around and asked the eunuch to find Xuan Jizi and the six ministers.
Not long after, Xuanjizi arrived at the imperial study room.
"Pindao has met the emperor."
"Taoist Priest, I would like to retreat for a period of time. I would like to have the Taoist Priest and the six ministers handle the affairs of the government on my behalf."
Just as the two started talking, six ministers came in.
The Sixth Division was in Qianchao, so it came very quickly.
Yu Ziming, the Minister of the Ministry of War, Duan Juncai, the Minister of the Ministry of Husbandry, Wang Gui, the Minister of Rites, Zhu Yunxi, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Yun Chenglong, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishments, and Yin Shan, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry.
Six ministers stood in front, and Li Chengdao asked the eunuch to call Huai Yi, the minister of Dali Temple, and Wei Chihou, the imperial censor.
Soon, Huai Yi and Yu Chihou also arrived.
When everyone arrived, Li Chengdao said, "Everyone knows what happened this time."
"Long Chengen sneaked into Jinling City to cause trouble and made the chickens and dogs in Jinling City restless."
The ministers listened quietly and did not dare to vent their anger loudly.
What happened this time was too tragic. Li Chengdao's own son was killed, but Long Chen retreated calmly, and Li Chengdao lost all face.
"Fortunately, the Imperial City Division discovered Long Chengen. Under the encirclement, Long Chengen fled in a hurry."
When Li Chengdao said this, everyone listened.
In fact, everyone knew in their hearts that Long Chen was not running away at all, but retreating calmly.
"I would like to retreat for a period of time, and the affairs between the DPRK and China will be discussed and handled by you and Taoist Master Xuanji."
"Duan Shangshu, Tianxiahui has surrendered. You will work with Wu Yue and Zuo Si, the elders of Tianxiahui, to reorganize Tianxiahui's property and return it to the imperial court."
Duan Juncai, Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue, came out and paid homage: "Wei ministers accept the decree."
Li Chengdao then said to Yu Ziming, the Minister of the Ministry of War: "Yu Shangshu, Jiang Hui is seriously injured, and the Imperial Army will be temporarily under your command."
"At the same time, tell the frontline soldiers to be careful of sneak attacks from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."
Yu Ziming came out and paid homage: "Wei Chen has received the order."
In fact, Yu Ziming had doubts in his heart. Long Chen had just made a big fuss in Jinling and killed many elites in Nanliang.
It was unreasonable for Li Chengdao to practice in seclusion at this time.
What if Long Chen leads his troops to attack?
However, Yu Ziming didn't dare to say or ask.
Li Chengdao said to Xuan Jizi: "Taoist Master, I have troubled you with the government affairs."
Xuan Jizi immediately said: "Your Majesty, don't worry. If something big happens, Pindao will definitely report it."
Li Chengdao nodded and said: "My dear friends, please work together and don't let me worry."
Everyone worshiped in unison: "I obey your order."
After the people dispersed, Li Chengdao entered the secret room.
The deputy commander Yan Xi is responsible for the outside defense.
Sitting in the secret room, Li Chengdao took out the booklet Long Ye had written and opened it again for details.
Li Chengdao chose to retreat at this time because he discovered that Long Chen had broken through the peak of the Martial Emperor and entered the Emperor Realm.
I used to think that only the Empress could break through, but now I find that is not the case.
Since Long Chen can do it, so can Li Chengdao.
Another point is that although Long Chen was afraid of the siege by the Forbidden Army, he did not choose to assassinate Li Chengdao.
But Long Chen calmly entered the palace to steal and kill people, which deeply shocked Li Chengdao.
What if Long Chen makes a desperate attempt to enter the palace and assassinate him? Can Li Chengdao defeat Long Chen?
Therefore, despite the dangerous situation, Li Chengdao decided to practice in seclusion.
In this world, martial arts is king!
Even an emperor may be killed if he is not cultivated enough.
Li Chengdao must break through to the peak of the Martial Emperor, at least the same as Long Chen.
Li Chengdao slowly closed his eyes and began to practice according to the method Long Ye said.
....
Fifty miles west of Jinling City.
A carriage was driving slowly westward, and the coachman was a middle-aged woman.
The car curtain was raised, and a blood-stained woman was sitting inside.
"Excuse me, Heroine, where are you taking me?"
This woman is Su Yue from Lan Yue Pavilion.
The groom looked back at Su Yue and said, "Girl, I have ordered you to be taken to a safe place."
"Take the medicine for healing, and there is also medicine for treating trauma."
