Yuanlong and Du Dezhong are from the same village. Both come from the countryside and have no background. They are all trying hard to get to this point. They do not have any prominent background or strong backers.

Therefore, Yuan Long knew very well that after learning about Princess Xi, it was easy to lose his official position, and it was very likely that his life would be lost.

Yuan Long wanted to expose and report Princess Xi for a moment. In this way, he would not have to assassinate the princess of Yanfeng Kingdom, nor would he have to bear the anger of Princess Xi.

But this idea was just a little passed in Yuanlong's mind, and then he was mercilessly driven out of his mind.

This method is not advisable!

Even, for him, this is simply the way to die!

Of course, Yuan Long could use this secret letter to find the emperor and expose Princess Xi to the emperor.

But then what?

Will the emperor kill Princess Xi because of this?

It's simply impossible!

Don’t say that this has not happened yet. Princess Yanfeng Kingdom has not died yet. Even if the princess of Yanfeng Kingdom dies, the emperor cannot kill Princess Xi, just because of her special identity! What decision the emperor makes is that it needs to consider the influence of all parties. Princess Xi’s dual identity is destined to be impossible to be killed, at most it will be scolded. However, for Princess Xi, it is completely unpainful and itchy.

As long as Princess Xi does not die, as the person who exposed Princess Xi, Yuanlong will definitely not be far from death, and the emperor will not offend the power of the family behind Princess Xi just because of an ordinary general. Both sides are not on the same level at all.

Therefore, as long as Yuan Long dares to expose Princess Xi, he must be the one who died. This is also the reason why Princess Xi dared to send him such a secret letter when she was not familiar with Yuan Long.

As long as Yuan Long is not stupid, he will not expose her. At most, he will not do as she asks.

What should I do?

Yuanlong sat on the lounge chair, his eyes closed and his eyebrows frowned.

He thought of his friend again.

The two came from the same mountain village, and even joined the army one after another. It can be said that the starting point was exactly the same.

But now, the identities of the two are completely different.

He is a defender in a city, while Du Dezhong is the deputy general of the Tianlang Army. If we only look at his position, it seems that his position as a defender is higher, but the fact is not the case.

Liuyun City is just a medium-sized city. As the guardian of Liuyun City, he can play a great role in Liuyun City, but it is inconspicuous in the entire Tianji Kingdom. As a superpower, Tianji Kingdom has many big cities, and even super-sized cities like Tianxing City. His guardian of a medium-sized city is really not worth mentioning.

But among Dude, the Tianlang Army is a famous army, an army that guards the imperial capital. Looking at the entire Tianji Kingdom, the Tianlang Army is one of the best. Not only is it large in number, but it is also very powerful in combat.

At the same time, because of his long-term garrison in the imperial capital, Du Dezhong, as a deputy general, had the opportunity to contact the powerful and powerful people in the imperial capital, and even meet the princes and emperors. The emperor and those princes knew that there was a person like Du Dezhong in the army of Tianji Kingdom, but several people knew his Yuanlong name. What's more, Du Dezhong now has a line of prince and becomes one of the important generals of the prince system. His career will surely be smooth sailing, especially after the prince ascended the throne, Du Dezhong will be even more extraordinary as a minister of the dragon.

There is already a lot of gap between the two now, and in the future, the gap will only become bigger and bigger.

Yuanlong was unwilling to give up! He thought he was not worse than Dudezhong, but he was not as good as Dudezhong, which made him very unwilling. When he saw his friend again many years later, Yuanlong was happy on the surface, but was envious and jealous in his heart.

And now, an opportunity to catch up or even surpass Dud is right in front of him, as long as he dares to give it a try!

"General, the dinner is ready." The voices of the servants in the mansion came from outside the study.

"I understand." Yuan Long replied.

Afterwards, Yuanlong opened his eyes, stood up, and walked out of the study. Before leaving the study, he looked at the notes on the table again, then turned around and tore the notes apart, and then left the study.

At this time, he had made a decision in his heart.

The dinner at Yuanlong Mansion was very lively. Although only Yuanlong and Du Dezhong were present, they had not seen each other for many years and now they finally got the opportunity to meet each other. Naturally, they were extremely happy. The entire hall was filled with the cheerful laughter of the two.

After drinking three times, I went through the dishes and five flavors, Du De mentioned the important matter.

"I'm going to tell you, my brother has something to ask for," Du Dezhong said.

"What's the matter?" Yuan Long asked with a blushing face: "It's probably not a trivial matter to let you ask for help."

"It's not a trivial matter," Du Dezhong also drank a sip of wine and said, "You know that I came out this time to welcome the bride, but who knows that this matter was not going well. The bad guys were too rampant and set up an ambush in my Tianji Kingdom, which caused heavy losses to my team. I was afraid that I would encounter ambush again on the road in the future, so I wanted to borrow some troops from you and let them return to the team when I send the princess of Yanfeng Kingdom to the imperial capital."

Yuanlong did not rush to answer, but ate a few bites of the dishes.

"Can you do it? You're giving me a word." Du Dezhong was a little anxious: "I sincerely ask you for help this time. You have to help me."

"Hahaha." Yuan Long laughed and said, "Look, you're so anxious. You've spoken. Can I agree? I'm afraid that if I don't agree, you will break up with me tomorrow."

"Not as exaggerated as you said." Hearing Yuanlong's agreement, Du Dezhong laughed: "However, if you agree to borrow soldiers, I still have to thank you. Come on, I'll give you a cup!"

After saying that, Dudezhong raised his head and drank the wine in his glass, his face feeling a little more drunk.

Yuanlong did not rush to drink, but said, "Originally, I shouldn't have mobilized the army at will. Even if you and I are friends, I shouldn't have done this."

Seeing that Du Dezhong was anxious again, Yuan Long continued, "Don't be anxious first, I haven't finished speaking yet. This time, it's not a private matter, but a public matter, and it's a very important matter to our Tianji Kingdom. I believe Your Majesty will not blame me for this."

In the Kingdom of Tianji, every defender has certain authority to transfer troops. This is a right granted to deal with emergencies. Of course, this right cannot be too great, otherwise it will be easy to get messed up, but there is no problem to lend some soldiers to Du Dezhong. After all, as Yuan Long said, this matter is a serious matter, and even if the emperor knows it, he will not say anything.
