In the palace, Li Chongfu took the 'elixir' and was meditating cross-legged to refine the medicinal power in his body.
This is his daily routine.
When Li Chongfu was refining the elixir, as the potency of the medicine began to dissipate, his body felt a little hot, and his breathing began to become rapid and heavy. So much so that in the cold spring months of February and March, he actually took off his outer robe to dissipate heat.
After almost a quarter of an hour, Li Chongfu's breathing changed from urgent and heavy to slightly relaxed.
He stood up at this time and paced back and forth, still consuming the power of the medicine. While Li Chongfu was distributing the medicine, there was a rush of footsteps and Zhao Yuan entered the main hall. When he saw the situation in Li Chong's Mansion, although he was panicking and anxious, he had no choice but to wait.
Li Chongfu continued to walk quickly, and it took about another quarter of an hour before he recovered slightly.
Calm was finally restored.
Li Chongfu's cheeks were slightly flushed, and his eyes were thickly bloodshot, but he smiled and said: "When I meditated before, my soul was so vague that I saw the heavenly palace, the heavenly palace, and the immortals in the sky. The scene in the sky. , It’s so beautiful, so beautiful. It’s a pity that I didn’t see it clearly, and everything disappeared. Oh, what a pity.”
Zhao Yuan's cheeks twitched.
What do you dream about the immortals in the sky?
That's a hallucinogenic pill.
Zhao Yuan knew very well what the so-called elixir was, but he couldn't resist the emperor's love for Taoism, so even though he knew the emperor's situation, Zhao Yuan couldn't do anything.
Li Chongfu continued: "What can you do?"
Zhao Yuandao: "Your Majesty, the robbery and killing of Lin Feng failed."
"waste!"
Li Chongfu suddenly became furious.
His excellent mood completely disappeared, and only anger remained. He asked: "How did you arrange it? You know that Lin Feng is powerful, don't you know how to go all out?"
Zhao Yuan sighed: "Your Majesty, in order to ensure Wan Sheng, the old slave arranged for Zhao Tiangang to go. However, it still failed. Not only that, the people who died this time were Zhao Tiangang, Jin Zaidao, and twelve innate masters. , they were all killed.”
brush!
Li Chongfu's expression changed drastically.
Zhao Tiangang is extremely powerful and is a master at the peak level. Is such a person actually dead?
Jin Zaidao was an important member of the Red Armor Cavalry, but he also died.
Such a loss is almost an impossible price to bear for both Li Chongfu and Xia Guo.
The more Li Chongfu thought about it, the angrier he became, and his breathing that had just calmed down began to become rapid again. Even his whole mood was getting angry out of control, and the more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became.
puff!
A mouthful of blood spat out.
As soon as Li Chongfu closed his eyes, his body fell backwards, and he was so angry that he vomited blood and passed out.
Zhao Yuan was so frightened that his body trembled. Fortunately, he was a master. He quickly pinched Li Chongfu's body and stimulated him with his true energy, so that Li Chongfu woke up. The look on his face was even more angry, and he was breathing very urgently.
Zhao Yuan said quickly: "Your Majesty, please don't be impatient. It will hurt your health if you get angry. It's not worth getting angry for a traitor like Lin Feng. Your Majesty's dragon body is the most important thing."
Li Chongfu said: "Tell me, what is going on? A master like Zhao Tiangang is so powerful that he will not be killed directly."
Zhao Yuan explained: "Reporting to Your Majesty, according to the investigation, Zhao Tiangang was surrounded and killed. There were at least two master masters beside Lin Feng. Counting Lin Feng himself, there were at least three masters and above. Only if Zhao Tiangang was killed."
"As for Jin Zaidao, the same is true."
"The rest of the innate masters who were killed were all killed by crossbow arrows. The general situation is that Lin Feng first ambushed Anpingfang, killed Zhang Jian and then evacuated quickly. Zhao Tiangang led his men to chase him, but Lin Feng retreated to The ambush site was arranged long ago and Zhao Tiangang was ambushed, so that Zhao Tiangang and others were all killed."
"That's the general picture."
Zhao Yuan felt aggrieved thinking about this.
Zhao Tiangang died like this.
What a pity.
Li Chongfu even clenched his fists, with veins popping out in his skinny hands, revealing boundless murderous intent.
He wanted to kill Lin Feng.
Only by killing Lin Feng can the hatred be relieved.
However, Lin Feng ran away.
Li Chongfu gritted his teeth and ignored the blood spraying from the corner of his mouth. His bloodshot eyes showed deep hatred and said: "Block Anyi, block Anyi immediately. At the same time, on the road from Anyi to Da Qin Set up checkpoints and check them all. I don’t believe that Lin Feng can escape."
Zhao Yuan said: "Your Majesty, Lin Feng is a master at the master level. It is probably difficult to blockade Anyi and capture Lin Feng."
"Dog slave."
Li Chongfu turned around, grabbed the pen holder in front of him, and smashed it.
boom! !
The penholder hit Zhao Yuan.
Zhao Yuan did not dodge and took the blow forcefully. Then he knelt on the ground with a plop and said, "Your Majesty, there is nothing we can do about it. It is very difficult to kill Lin Feng. First, we sent a large army to surround him. Only by taking advantage of the crowd can we continue to kill him. Second, if we ask the Grand Master in the palace to take action, there will still be a certain chance."
Li Chongfu shook his head and said: "It is impossible for Xia Guo to take action on such a matter. Only when Xia Guo is in crisis will the Grand Master come forward."
Zhao Yuan said: "Then the only way is to mobilize a large army to surround and kill."
Li Chongfu said: "Lin Feng's people don't know where they are, how can they surround and kill them? Such a situation can be said to be quite difficult."
Zhao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
At least, Li Chongfu has not lost his mind yet.
At this time, there was the sound of hurried footsteps, and a chamberlain hurried to Zhao Yuan's side and reported the matter in a low voice. After Zhao Yuan heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on his old face, and he waved his hand for the servant to leave.
He turned to look at Li Chongfu and said happily: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty."
Li Chongfu said: "Why are you so happy?"
Zhao Yuandao: "Just now, regarding the Xishan Iron Mine, a general in the army sent a message to Chijiaqi, saying that Lin Feng was found to be connected with Jiang Dushan, the captain who guarded the Xishan Iron Mine. Especially with the help of Jiang Dushan, Lin Feng and the former Lin family Cui Yuantu, the remnant, contacted him."
"Lin Feng came to Anyi this time to take away Cui Yuantu and a group of old subordinates of the Lin family."
"The reason why these remnants of the Lin family have been arranged in the Xishan Iron Mine is that it is easy to supervise, and on the other hand, if there are remnants of the Lin family, they can use these people to attract the Lin family. Now, Lin Feng really contacted them early. "
"The next step is to kill Jiang Dushan, capture Lin Feng, and capture the remnants of the Lin family. The old slave suggested mobilizing the Western Army outside the city to directly surround the Xishan Iron Mine."
"According to normal circumstances, Lin Feng has just killed Zhang Jianzhi and Yan Wuji, and must have gone straight to the Xishan Iron Mine. Now it is just the right time to mobilize troops to surround him. In addition, if Lin Feng has not gone to the Xishan Iron Mine yet, he will just go to the Xishan Iron Mine." Let Cui Yuantu and other remnants of the Lin family force Lin Feng to show up."
"In fact, Yan Wuji's previous solution was a big mistake. He should have directly arrested Cui Yuantu and others and forced Lin Feng to show up."
Zhao Yuandao: "Your Majesty, this is the only award."
Li Chongfu stroked the beard under his chin and said: "Yan Wuji's concern is that leaving Cui Yuantu and others behind will not have too much influence on the generals who were promoted by the Lin family in the past, or who were favored by the Lin family. big."
"Today, directly killing Lin Feng, Cui Yuantu and others will have a certain impact."
"But at the moment, there is nothing to worry about. Just kill when you need to. Zhao Yuan, go to the Western Army General Gong Lang in person and pass on my instructions to him to mobilize the Western Army under his command and attack the Xishan Iron Mine. The iron mines surrounded them and captured Jiang Dushan and others."
Li Chongfu looked sharp and said: "Once we capture everyone, we will kill them all, leaving no one behind."
Zhao Yuandao: "Old slave obeys the order."
Li Chongfu waved his hand and said: "Go."
Zhao Yuan turned around and left. This time, he left the imperial city in person and went to the Western Army camp outside the west city.
The location of the Western Army is four miles southwest of the Anyi Imperial City. It has a river at its back, an official road in front of it, and the area is flat, making it suitable for garrisoning.
Gong Lang, the commander-in-chief of the Western Army, was also a famous general in the Xia Kingdom, and even had some relationship with Lin Feng's grandfather, Lin Jiuxiao. It's just that Gong Lang has been in Anyi for more than 20 years, sitting in charge of the Western Army and responsible for protecting the safety of Anyi.
Western Army Camp.
Inside the Chinese army's tent.
Gong Lang is reading a book now. Although he is already over sixty, and his martial arts talent is not strong, he is only an innate master and has never broken through to a grandmaster. But this kind of martial arts is enough for him, enough to strengthen his body, enough to ensure that he is strong and healthy.
While Gong Lang was reading, there was a sound of footsteps. His staff member Tie Ziyou hurried in and bowed.
"General."
Tie Ziyou bowed and bowed.
Gong Lang nodded slightly and said, "Sir, come here, what can I do?"
Tie Ziyou said: "General, there is great turmoil in Anyi City."
Gong Lang asked: "What turmoil?"
Tie Ziyou said: "Lin Feng is back, and as soon as he came back, he first killed Murong Shanhai at Huxiao Mountain, and then set up a plan today to kill Yan Wuji first, and then Zhang Jiuzhi. Together with this, he originally planned to ambush Lin Feng Zhao Tiangang, the deputy commander of the Red Armored Cavalry, and Jin Zaidao were both killed by Lin Feng."
Speaking of this, Tie Ziyou said with emotion: "In just two or three days, several important people died. It's really rough."
Gong Lang stroked his beard under his chin and said in a deep voice: "I have heard about the murder of Murong Shanhai. As soon as Lin Feng came back, he went to Huxiao Mountain, killed Murong Shanhai and others, and left behind "I, Lin Feng, am back."
"Speaking of which, Murong Shanhai deserves what he deserves. He helped Yan Wuji and acted as an aide to the tiger."
"Lin Yuanzhong died on the battlefield, leaving behind orphans and widowers. Not long after, Lin Feng's mother also died of depression, leaving only a single seedling in the Lin family. However, His Majesty still listened to Yan Wuji's slander and wanted to eradicate Lin Feng's mother. Feng abolished his martial arts and was exiled."
"The Lin family is a meritorious family. Even Lin Feng himself is the son of a meritorious official who shed blood for the Xia Kingdom."
"His Majesty is so ruthless and unjustifiable."
"I have always thought that what His Majesty did was unjust. But even as warriors, we can't interfere in this matter. Now that Lin Feng has come back, he wants to take revenge and kill people. To be honest, it is normal."
"Zhang Jianzhi and Yan Wuji are all against the Lin family. If we don't kill them, can Lin Feng give up?"
In his words, Gong Lang sounded a little unhappy.
When it comes to the Lin family, he is just a warrior and cannot interfere, but he is unwilling to do so in his heart.
Tie Ziyou nodded and said: "What the general said is true, but this time Yan Wuji died, the news I learned about Yan Wuji's wife and concubines was that Yan Wuji's wives and concubines were said to have had conflicts. On the way home from the palace, Yan Wuji was killed by Lin Feng kills."
"This matter should be planned by Lin Feng. But there is something strange about Zhang Jianzhi. Yan Wuji died, and his Majesty ordered Zhang Jianzhi to go to express his condolences, and then Lin Feng ambushed him. Following that, Zhao Tiangang and his people also surrounded him."
"This point is a bit strange, as if Zhang Jianzhi was a bait thrown by His Majesty to lure Lin Feng. But in the end, the bait failed. Not only did he not ambush Lin Feng, but he lost a lot of money."
Tie Ziyou said: "This is my guess, and of course it may not be true."
Gong Lang said: "It is normal for this matter to be left to our Majesty. The Lin family has been dealt with, so what does Zhang Jianzhi mean? Alas, we don't care about political affairs and just do our own thing. The rest of the matter is also I can't control it. As for Lin Feng's affairs, don't worry about it. I just hope he can leave safely."
Tie Ziyou nodded and said, "What the general said is reasonable, so don't mix it up with these miscellaneous things."
"Report!"
At this moment, a soldier entered directly and reported: "General, the chief internal officer Zhao Yuan is here and is outside the camp."
"Please."
Gong Lang gave an order.
He raised his brows, a little surprised.
Zhao Yuan is the general manager of the Imperial Household and represents the emperor. It is almost rare for him to come to the Western Army to mobilize troops.
Why is Zhao Yuan here?
Gong Lang stood up and waited. Not long after, Zhao Yuan entered. Gong Lang had a smile on his face and said, "General Manager Zhao is here at the Western Army. What can I do for you?"
Zhao Yuan also smiled and said: "General Gong, the Red Armor Cavalry has reported that Lin Feng may have fled to the Xishan Iron Mine area. His Majesty sent an order to you to mobilize the Western Army to quickly surround the Xishan Iron Mine and capture Lin Feng. Now guard Xishan. Jiang Dushan, the captain of the iron mine, has rebelled. Therefore, if there is resistance, everyone, including Jiang Dushan, will be killed without mercy."
"I will obey my orders."
Gong Lang agreed directly.
Zhao Yuan said calmly: "General Gong, Lin Feng was a rebel and traitor, and even killed our important ministers Yan Wuji and Zhang Jianzhi of the Xia Kingdom. The crime cannot be pardoned. The old slave knows General Gong and has some friendship with the Lin family in the past. Which one is more serious? General Wanggong is cautious.
Gong Lang said solemnly: "Please rest assured, Mr. Zhao, I understand the importance."
"That's good, farewell."
Zhao Yuan bowed his head and turned to leave.
Gong Lang looked at Zhao Yuan's leaving back, shook his head and sighed, saying: "Your Majesty gave the order, I can't do anything about it. I hope Lin Feng has left Xishan Iron Mine, so I don't have to be embarrassed. If Lin Feng is here, I can't do anything about it." There is no other way.”
"Mr. Tie, please pass on the order and immediately mobilize soldiers and horses to send troops to the Xishan Iron Mine."
Gong Lang gave the order.
Tie Ziyou immediately agreed and quickly made arrangements.
The 30,000 elite troops in the Western Army camp were all assembled in less than a quarter of an hour. Everyone is in high spirits and has high morale. This army in particular is the strongest fighting force in defending Anyi, and its fighting force is extremely elite.
Following Gong Lang's order, the army moved quickly in a mighty manner.
Start heading straight for the Xishan Iron Mine.
