At the gate of Jinling City.

The second prince Li Jiye and the fourth prince Li Wenji welcomed Li Chengdao to triumph. They congratulated him in front of the horse, but Li Chengdao rode over without any color.

After the team passed, the two felt strange, why didn’t they see the prince and the third prince?

"Where is the boss and the third brother?"

Li Jiye said in confusion.

The fourth prince Li Wenji gently shook the folding fan in his hand. Even in the cold winter, he would maintain his style as a scholar.

"Is the rumors true?"

Li Wenji whispered.

They heard a lot of news in Jinling City that Li Chengtong, Li Yuanying, and the three sons of the Murong family were all killed by Long Chen at Jade Buddha Pass and sent their heads to Linjiang City.

Although Li Chengdao issued an order to block the news, those who dared to speak out were killed!

But at that time, there were so many people under the city, and there were always reports, and the two of them also received news.

"Fourth brother, don't talk nonsense!"

The second prince Li Jiye felt that his opportunity had come.

Li Chengtong and Li Yuanying are too powerful, he dare not compare, but compared to Li Wenji, Li Jiye feels that he is better.

"Second brother, I didn't say anything, you said it."

Li Wenji was secretly happy and turned around to find his group of literati and poets to discuss the seizure of the Eastern Palace.

After the two brothers died, they were not sad at all, but were happy.

Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai entered the city, their hearts were very heavy, but their faces were pretending to be victorious.

As soon as the two returned to the mansion, they received an order to enter the palace.

The two hurriedly changed out of their armor, put on court robes, and immediately entered the palace to face the holy.

After entering the imperial study, Li Chengdao was still wearing the clothes he had returned from the war, and the dust and mud on his body were still there.

"I pay homage to the Emperor."

The two of them worshiped.

Li Chengdao came to his senses and said tiredly: "Sit flat, sit down."

The two sat down on the chair next to them, waiting for Lee Seung-dao's instructions.

"This battle... is tragic!"

Li Chengdao used the word "tragic" to describe this imperial commander-in-chief.

They lost not much troops, only 20,000, but Jade Buddha Pass lost three powerful Martial Emperors, the crown prince and the third prince.

One is the National Crown of Daliang and the other is the head of the Imperial City Department.

All three sons of the Murong family died, and Murong Xiao was defeated.

Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai remained silent, they didn't know what to say.

"Long Chengen's power is beyond my imagination. He actually... killed three martial emperors in a row and seriously injured two. Jing Tianlie's Red Flame Army was defeated like a mountain."

Li Chengdao sighed quietly, and felt extremely hatred.

Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai never spoke.

"Long Cheng'en will replace Jing Tianlie and become the general of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The war in the world will definitely restart."

"General Hu, you lead your troops to guard Qushui City and resist it in the east."

"General Qiu, you lead your troops to guard Hanling City and resist it to the west."

"You can rest at home for seven days and set off immediately after seven days, and there must be no mistakes."

Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai stood up and worshiped: "I received the order."

The two left the imperial study room.

"Zhong Gui!"

Zhong Gui came in from outside and bowed: "Emperor."

Li Chengdao ordered: "Immediately select talented and intelligent girls, it is best to enter the palace with their martial arts skills, the more they are, the better."

"Jinling Heroes Station is reopened, and I will select generals every day. I want to recruit heroes from all over the world. As long as I have high martial arts skills, I will use them regardless of nationality or nationality."

This hero platform once recruited a group of military generals for Nanliang, including Long Ye, who came from a poor family.

Zhong Gui said, "Slave received the order."

Li Chengdao said again: "You sent people to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to find a way to do something."

Zhong Gui said, "Slave received the order."

Li Chengdao closed his eyes and looked very tired.

The eunuch Zhong Gui asked softly: "The emperor, the prince and the third prince's coffins are placed in the ancestral hall. Will they be buried?"

Jing Tianlie sent six coffins to Jinling and kept them secretly in the ancestral hall.

Li Chengdao closed his eyes and said coldly: "Plushes your head, send the Murong family's secret back to comfort it."

Zhong Gui received the order and slowly left the room.

Xuan Jizi came in from outside. He had already changed into a Taoist robe and sat next to Li Chengdao. After a long time, he slowly said: "Master, I have a suggestion."

Lee Seung-dao didn't say anything, leaned on the dragon throne and napped. He was extremely tired.

"Although we failed several times of assassination, I still recommend trying again. We used to do it ourselves, so we can let professionals do professional things this time."

Li Chengdao still didn't say anything.

Xuan Jizi continued: "Wanjin Tower has always been hidden in the world, and the assassination methods are extremely clever, if..."

Li Chengdao opened his eyes, his eyes were covered with bloodshot, and he said hatefully: "Accurate! Allocate silver from the treasury!"

Xuan Jizi worshipped: "I will receive the order."

Wanjinlou is a mysterious sect in the world, and no one knows the specific situation.

But there is one thing that everyone knows is that Wanjinlou is an assassination sect. They only take on assassination of kings and princes, and the offer is extremely high.

There is a saying in the world: Wanjin Tower, Wanjin Tower, you can buy a head of your neck with a thousand gold. Please don’t want to talk about kings and princes, you can take your head with a head of a thousand gold!

Because Wanjinlou always targets kings and princes, the imperial courts of various countries cracked down on them.

But Wanjin Tower always exists. As long as you can pay ten thousand taels of gold, you can kill them below the emperor.

This time, Xuan Jizi hopes that Wanjin Tower can kill Long Chen.

Li Chengdao was dying and was eager to seek medical treatment, thinking that killing Long Chen with ten thousand taels of gold was very cost-effective.

Xuan Jizi contacted Wanjinlou immediately.

Zhong Gui came out of the imperial study and met Yu Fuguo. Yu Fuguo smiled sinisterly and said, "This battle is a great victory, Lord General has made great contributions."

Zhong Gui's face turned cold and warned: "Yu Fuguo, don't be uncomfortable."

With a cold snorting, Zhong Gui walked over.

Yu Fuguo looked at Zhong Gui's back coldly and said sarcastically: "Do you deceive yourself."

....

Eastern Zhou Daughter City.

Long Chen showed up outside the west gate with five female generals. Xuan Yi saw it and hurriedly rode his horse to the city gate, shouting: "Lord Long is back to Beijing!"

Hearing the sound, Di Luoxi was the first to ride a horse out of the city gate and rushed to the west.

Yesterday I received news from the post station that Long Chen could arrive in the capital today.

The empress brought all the civil and military officials of the court to greet them at the West Gate.

"Princess, wait for us."

Xuan Yi and Qingyue rode a horse and chased after him.

The empress was wearing a big red phoenix robe and a phoenix crown on her head. She was majestic and had joy on her face.

"What's the 4th sister in a hurry?"

The eldest princess Di Yu said slightly sourly.

Long Chen is from the West Palace, and Emperor Luoxi is very proud of it.

The second princess Di Xingwan looked at a white-faced eunuch behind her and laughed: "Sister, you should work hard to find a good eunuch."

This white-faced eunuch was chosen by Di Xingwan and is now the general manager of Nangong.

The white-faced eunuch smiled with a humble look on his face.

Yingfeng and Di Wan'er stood on tiptoe and wanted to look farther away. When they saw Long Chen earlier, Xiang Ning and the palace maids of the West Palace were also anxiously waiting for Long Chen to come back.
