Bang bang...
Amidst a knock on the door, Long Chen opened his tired eyes.
Xuan Yi and Qing Yue each held one hand and fell asleep, looking like they were tired but satisfied.
Long Chen slowly took his hand out, and then gently got out of the bed. There were two bedsheets placed on the chair, both of which were changed last night.
It can only be said that these two beauties were so suffocated in the palace that the two sheets were soaked before they stopped.
Long Chen raised his hand and looked at his fingers with pity.
Pretend that the eunuch is suffering all the time, especially the fingers.
Once the Eastern Zhou Dynasty is under control, then the fingers can be freed and the second brother can go and fight.
Shaking his head helplessly, Long Chen opened the lock, and Zhang Qian and Xiang Ning were guarding outside.
"What's wrong?"
Long Chen stretched himself.
Zhang Qian asked with concern: "Are you okay? You look so haggard."
Xiang Ning came up and touched Long Chen's waist and asked, "Does it hurt? Is it sore?"
Long Chen found it funny. His fingers were tired. What does it have to do with his waist?
These palace maids are half-understanding and have no idea what the cause of kidney deficiency is.
"I'm fine, they're fine."
Long Chen turned back and pointed at Xuan Yi and Qing Yue.
Xiang Ning looked at the soaked sheets on the chair and said with disgust: "Let them wash it themselves, I won't wash it."
Zhang Qian said: "Let's get down to business. The princess asked you to go over. There is news from Nanliang."
Long Chen immediately washed up, changed his clothes, and then went to Di Luoxi's bedroom.
Entering the room, Di Luoxi was wearing a mink fur, and there was a stove in front of her to warm herself up.
Only then did Long Chen remember that people at this time didn't know how to burn a kang.
When Long Chen walked in, Di Luoxi raised her head and smiled obscenely: "Where are they? Can't they get up? I don't know what to do, they can't walk, who will do the work?"
Long Chen sat next to Di Luoxi with a smile and put his hand into the mink fur: "It's so cold. The princess's clothes are the warmest inside."
Di Luoxi handed a memorial to Long Chen and said: "Shangguan Wei is dead and committed suicide."
Long Chen took out his hand, took the report, and read it carefully.
This was the message sent back by spies in Nanliang. It said: After Shangguan Wei returned to Jinling, Li Chengdao summoned him. After Shangguan Wei returned home in court, he committed suicide in his room wearing court clothes.
Long Chen was not surprised at all. He knew Shangguan Wei very well. After such a huge defeat, his family fortune was completely destroyed, and he couldn't lose face.
"Did Li Chengdao force Shangguan Wei to death?"
Di Luoxi felt that Li Chengdao was narrow-minded and would not let Shangguan Wei go.
Therefore, Shangguan Wei was actually given death by Li Chengdao.
"No, Shangguan Wei himself had no shame in committing suicide. It had nothing to do with Li Chengdao."
"Li Chengdao is indeed narrow-minded, but the Long family army is gone, Murong Xiao was killed, and there are only three of the Five Tiger Generals of Nanliang left. He will not take action against Shangguan Wei again."
To judge a person's behavior, we must not only look at the person's character, but also the position the person is in.
It is true that Li Chengdao has a small belly, but he is the emperor of Nanliang. Considering the court situation, Li Chengdao will tolerate Shangguan Wei and keep Shangguan Wei useful.
Therefore, Long Chen concluded that Shangguan Wei did not want to live anymore and had nothing to do with Li Chengdao.
Di Luoxi nodded and said, "What you say makes sense. There are only two of the Five Tiger Generals left, and they will stop in the south from now on."
Long Chen disagreed: "There are fewer generals, but the country's strength is still there, and there are still those who have cultivated to the Martial Emperor realm, so we can't be careless."
Di Luoxi hugged Long Chen with a smile, and put her jade hands into Long Chen's clothes: "As long as the little dragon is here, I'm not worried."
Long Chen was speechless.
Xuan Yi and Qing Yue walked into the dormitory slowly with small steps. Di Luoxi took out her dirty hands and said, "Can you still walk?"
Xuan Yi and Qing Yue smiled shyly: "After a night's sleep, you can go."
Di Luoxi hugged Long Chen and asked, "What time did you go to bed last night?"
Long Chen looked outside and said, "I've been away from the capital for a long time. I'll go to the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs to have a look."
After saying that, Long Chen immediately got up and fled from the dormitory.
When they got outside, Zhang Qian followed.
"Didn't you say that the two of them will follow you from now on?"
Long Chen was a little strange. The three of them had been arguing all day yesterday and finally squeezed Zhang Qian out. Why is it still Zhang Qian today?
Long Chen just asked casually, but he didn't expect Zhang Qian to be furious.
"Master Long, you are so heartless. I have been sleeping with you for a year, and all my body has been touched by you... Now that you are tired of playing with me, you just want to change someone else. Are you such a scumbag!"
Long Chen stopped and saw Zhang Qian's eyes were red, and felt really sorry.
Zhang Qian is a battlefield warrior with an extremely tenacious temperament, but now she is actually angry and crying.
"That's not what I meant. I just asked casually. It's best to have you around. They are not as old as you. You know what I like to do the most."
Long Chen drew circles with his hands to comfort...
At the corner, Xiao'e and Xiao Daiyu came over with something in their hands, and they saw Long Chen kneading and comforting it carefully.
"Ah! Master Long, what are you doing? It's broad daylight!"
Xiao'e raised her sleeves and pretended not to look, but in fact her eyes were just exposed and she could see clearly.
Xiao Daiyu giggled and said, "Isn't that right? In broad daylight, with the world clear, you actually molest a good girl."
Zhang Qian was originally angry, but when the two little girls stirred things up, her cheeks turned red immediately. She knocked off Long Chen's dirty hand and laughed and scolded: "You two little bastards, aren't you messing around in the room? You can watch me do it next time. You give it to Master Long!”
Xiao'e and Xiao Daiyu ran away laughing.
"Okay, don't be angry anymore. I will take you with me from now on. I can't bear to give up such a big thing."
There was no one around, and Long Chen was about to attack again, but Zhang Qian held back and said, "If you encounter someone again, it's up to you what to do. Go and get down to business."
When the two arrived at the Ministry of Industry, Xu Ming, the assistant minister, immediately came out to greet them.
"grown ups."
Long Chen nodded, went into the main hall and sat down. Xu Ming presented the accounts of the Ministry of Works during these times, and Long Chen read them one by one.
"It's done very well. Production can keep up when I'm away, and there's no problem with quality."
Xu Ming bowed: "It's all arranged by the adults, and the younger ones just follow the steps."
In the past, Xu Ming was unconvinced, but now Xu Ming admired Long Chen so much that he fell to the ground.
He could invent, settle accounts, and fight. He was shocked when he heard that Long Chen jumped over the rank and killed Shangguan Xiu and Shangguan Mu.
The entire Ministry of Industry was discussing that Long Chen was actually a master in the Martial Emperor realm, but he had just been keeping a low profile and hiding his cultivation.
"Good is good, I will report your merits to the Holy One."
This is not a cliche. If you do it well, Long Chen will report it.
When you are the boss, you cannot be selfish and take away the credit of your subordinates. You must give your subordinates room for promotion.
"Thank you, sir."
Xu Ming was very happy.
"I have two things here. You can make them according to this drawing and formula."
Long Chen took out a brochure. This was something he invented during this period, a new business cooperation with Tianxiahui.
Xu Ming took the booklet, opened it, read it, nodded and said: "I will do it now."
After Xu Ming left, Long Chen left the Ministry of Industry and arrived at the Ministry of Household Affairs. Duan Shuangshuang brought officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs to pay him a visit.
"Welcome back, sir."
Duan Shuangshuang, who was originally a little cold, became extremely enthusiastic.
Sure enough, women like strong men on the battlefield.
"You're welcome. Show me the latest accounts."
Long Chen sat on the main seat. Duan Shuangshuang brought the accounts and Long Chen looked at them carefully.
"Have people from the Dragon Gang and Tianxiahui been here?"
Long Chen put down his account book and asked.
Duan Shuangshuang replied: "I've been here, but the master is not here. The official said that we can make an appointment with them when the master comes back."
Long Chen said: "Make an appointment with Tianxiahui. We will meet in seven days."
Duan Shuangshuang accepted the order and immediately delivered the letter to Sifang Tower.
