On the other side, inside the palace hall. Under the heavy protection of more than a dozen generals, Li Benxin and other officials in the inner government were anxiously waiting for news from the outside. It was getting dark when Yu Wenzhao ran into the hall and reported that Sima Yue had withdrawn his troops. Only then did everyone feel at ease.
Li Benxin sat firmly on the throne with relief, a relaxed smile on his face. He looked at Wen Xiang Wu Sanwen, who was standing at the front of the hall, and praised: "Wen Xiang is indeed extremely smart and can predict events like a god. Unexpectedly, as you expected, this battle did not start."
Other ministers in the palace also praised Wu Sanwen with admiration on their faces.
Wu Sanwen returned the favor and said humbly: "It's not me who is smart. It's this Luofan who is smart. I have never admired anyone in my life, but this Luofan is such a miraculous trick that people have to admire. He came to Dragon City On the first day, he dared to challenge Yin Shaozheng in the street, and even killed the people of Longcheng. Now he single-handedly broke into the civilian army, killed ten commanders, and supported Zhang Feiling to become the commander-in-chief of the civilian army. If he did not become Sima Yue in the future If you do harm, you will definitely have a bright future."
After hearing this, everyone nodded in approval.
Li Jiudou sighed in the same way and said, "This kid is a bit evil. He directly killed the top ten commanders, blamed it on Sima Yue, and took advantage of the situation to help Zhang Feiling take the military power of the civilian army. Such a bold plan, just listening to it It makes people feel frightened to say the least. If he can join our inner palace, maybe he can really suppress the arrogance of the four major families?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Tianqing Mansion Tianqing Xunxijiang, this mighty big man raised his thick eyebrows happily, pinched his waist and echoed in a tiger's voice: "Senior Li is right. Our inner government lacks a smart person like Luofan. , who is bold enough to dare to challenge Sima Yue. Moreover, he is also the arresting officer of the Tiandu Dynasty. We should draw him into our camp as soon as possible. In this way, who will look at the four major families in the court in the future? Dare to challenge us."
Everyone was excited when they heard this. On the side was Yu Kaitian, the second-rank god of the Tianqing Mansion. The old man who was the owner of the Iron Spear Sect also stroked his gray mustache and joked with a smile: "Yes, who is the famous name of the Living Yama now?" I don’t know. Don’t worry about Yin Shaozheng or Sima Yue. As long as the crime is in his hands, he can ransack your house. If such a person is pulled over, it will definitely be a knife. No, it is a good knife. Yes, it is a knife. Good knife.”
Yu Kaitian originally wanted to say, "He is definitely a good dog, and he will bite whoever he lets him bite!" But when the words came to his lips, he felt inappropriate and swallowed them back.
Everyone laughed when they heard the words. Li Jiudou followed Yu Kaitian's words and said with a smile: "Yes, it is a good knife. Moreover, he is Zhang Ruoxu's adopted son and Zhang Feiling's savior. If he is brought here, it does not mean that the commoner army is also brought back. Well. This is a huge benefit to us."
Everyone nodded again, laughing at each other and making calculations.
Everyone had the same opinion, and Li Benxin saw it. However, his brows were still a little unable to relax.
Last time Zhang Ruoxu was killed and Zhang Feiling was humiliated in the street, he, the king of Tiandu, did not help. Nowadays, people have regained power and gained power based on their own abilities. It would not look good on my face if I tried to win over him at this time. Moreover, this Luofan has offended Sima Yue. What if he takes him under his command and Sima Yue gathers the army to cause trouble?
Only Wu Sanwen and Yu Wenzhao saw Li Benxin's thoughts. Wu Sanwen couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Li Benxin was always afraid of wolves and tigers when doing things. It would be a great misfortune for the world to let such an irresponsible person become the king.
Yu Wenzhao saw Li Benxin's embarrassment and said: "I think this matter needs to be slowed down for a while. Although the commoner army has returned to Zhang Feiling, it is still unclear whether she can surrender. And now this Luofan has become more powerful than the four major families. We are in the same boat. If we bring him over now, doesn't it mean that we are directly declaring war on the four major families? At that time, if the four major families unite to rebel internally and externally, it will definitely not be a good thing for us. "
When everyone heard this, they all stopped smiling and felt that Yu Wenzhao's words were reasonable.
Li Benxin nodded and said: "Yu Wenzhao's words are exactly what I want to say. Now that the commoner army has only returned to Zhang Feiling, the gap in strength between us and the four major families has not narrowed. It's better not to rush to recruit this Luofan."
Hearing Li Benxin's words, everyone became serious again and became embarrassed. They also remembered that Zhang Feiling was not Zhang Ruoxu. To be honest, she might still hate Li Benxin! Thinking about it this way, it seems that the situation is getting worse for them.
Seeing that everyone was dejected again, Yu Wenzhao comforted him: "But don't worry, everyone. The Buyi Army and the four major families have a deadly feud. Zhang Feiling must also be afraid that the four major families will besiege the Eighty Mountains again. Therefore, her commoners The army should still be on our side. Also, this afternoon, Mr. Xue of Wuliu Inn has sent a message. Xie Xu and Zhao Xue's injuries are no longer serious, and they will arrive at Longcheng tomorrow. Their master and apprentice We have a good relationship with Zhang Feiling, so we can let them get in touch with the civilian army first."
When everyone heard this, they all smiled again. Unexpectedly, Yu Wenzhao, a rugged man, has always made witty remarks in recent days, and seems to have suddenly become smarter.
Wu Sanwen also smiled and echoed: "Marshal Yuwen is right. How could we forget about Xue Xiang? With him here, the civilian army will definitely submit. Moreover, Xue Xiang also has the backing of the Jian Guan Ji family. His apprentice Zhao Xue is also the sister of Hou Lingtian, the leader of the World Bank Gang. With their joining, the strength of our inner government has been greatly improved."
Li Benxin said happily: "Yes, yes. Moreover, I heard that Ji Cheng will also come to Dragon City in person. With the addition of Xie Xu and Zhao Xue, these martial arts heroes, our dynasty will have a few more tiger generals."
Everyone was talking happily when suddenly the palace gatekeeper general ran over and reported: "Report! Zhang Feiling, the commander-in-chief of the civilian army, has sent a letter, asking the king of Tiandu to open it."
Hearing this, everyone was full of doubts. Just as they were talking about the civilian army, Zhang Feiling sent a letter? What a coincidence. I can't help but wonder, what will she write in this letter?
Everyone was whispering, mostly because they were afraid that Zhang Feiling would take over the new power, and perhaps he was resentful, so he wrote to Li Benxin to protest.
Li Benxin also frowned and held the letter in his hand doubtfully. He was also afraid that Zhang Feiling's letter was to accuse him of being ungrateful and neglecting the Zhang family. In front of all the officials like this, he will definitely not be able to get off the stage. But when he opened the letter and saw the words written on the letterhead: "My Lord, King of Heavenly Capital", he felt relieved.
Zhang Feiling also recognized herself as the master in the letter, indicating that she did not resent herself. After reading the letter, Li Benxin felt even more comfortable, and a satisfied smile finally appeared on his face.
Asking people to pass the letter to everyone for reading, he smiled happily and said: "I didn't expect that Zhang Feiling was so righteous. She took charge of the civilian army, so she personally wrote a letter of surrender. She will continue to fight against the four major families to the end. She is worthy of being the daughter of Prime Minister Zhang. , heroine, admirable."
Everyone read the letter and became happy.
Li Jiudou hurriedly handed over his hands and praised: "This is all because the King of Tiandu is so kind and sincere to others. Now that Zhang Feiling has returned with the civilian army, our inner government will have a lot of help. In this way, the peace inside and outside the court is just around the corner." "
Wen Xiang Wu Sanwen also admired: "The Zhang family is a loyal family, and they are also upright and selfless heroes. It is really admirable that Zhang Feiling has such a mind. Since she is already a commander-in-chief and has led everyone to surrender, I don't know how the king will arrange her official position?"
Li Benxin lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "Zhang Feiling has just been appointed as the commander-in-chief of the civilian army, and she still needs to stay in the army to stabilize people's hearts. I think so, let's make her a hereditary Marquis of Renyi first. And she will be given the title of Grand Marshal of Nancheng. And As in the previous episode, she is self-sufficient in the army and ready to be called upon."
Everyone, Li Benxin, made such arrangements, bowed and saluted, and shouted: "The King of Tiandu is so kind and benevolent, and we will swear to serve the dynasty to the death."
After everyone had discussed the important matter, they all left the palace with a happy smile.
A hundred miles southwest of Longcheng is the boundary of Fucheng. It is located in a plain with developed transportation on all sides. It borders Tiancheng in the east, leads directly to Huangcheng in the south, strangles the main road of King Ling of Hancheng in the north, and borders the Eighty Mountains and Dragon City in the west. The territory is not large but the location is very important, so it is always guarded by two kings. One is the Wind King and the other is the Cheng King.
The first generation of Wind King Yu Shikun and Cheng King Xiao Lei were sworn brothers, and they were also confidants who followed Li Yilong to conquer the world. After Li Yilong ascended the throne, he placed the two of them in Fucheng as his important force to control the north and south.
Ten years ago, the two kings passed away one after another, and the throne was passed to their sons, who are now Feng Wang Yu Dahai and Cheng Wang Xiao He.
