The empress nodded heavily and said, "Just think about it, I support you!"
Long Chen bowed gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Long Chen was grateful to the empress.
Although the weapons were at each other's throats in the past, each was his own master at that time, all for the sake of the country, and there was no personal enmity.
After arriving in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the empress had always been very good to Long Chen and took good care of him in all aspects.
Even if what he does is very risky, the Empress will still support it.
Of course, in addition to these, there is also the ambiguous relationship between the two, and the empress has seen everything.
Long Chen sometimes wondered whether the empress would still be like that when she regained her male body, letting Long Chen do whatever he wanted.
"What did Wanjin Tower say?"
The key to the success or failure of this matter lies in Wanjin Tower. If the killer assassins of Wanjin Tower join in, there is hope that the battle will be ended quickly.
"Weichen made an appointment with Shen Wanjin to meet tomorrow, ten miles north of the city. Weichen will go alone."
Upon hearing this, Yingfeng immediately objected: "No, they are assassins, how can you do it alone!"
The empress also felt something was wrong: "Wanjinlou only recognizes money. What if they take the money?"
Long Chen said: "There is no way, now we need Wanjin Tower and we must bear the risk."
To deal with Tianxiahui, we must unite with Wanjin Tower to be stable.
From Wanjinlou's standpoint, they don't need to compete with Tianxiahui for territory.
"Take someone with you and lay an ambush around you. If there is a problem, there will be someone to deal with it."
The empress glanced at Yingfeng, who nodded and said, "Wei Chen accepts the order."
Long Chen shook his head and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern. Weichen will arrange for people from the West Factory. The Shadow Guards will continue to investigate the Tianxiahui and prepare for a raid."
The empress nodded and said, "Okay, just prepare yourself."
After finishing the matter, Long Chen stood up and bowed: "Wei Chen is going back to prepare."
The empress also stood up and escorted Long Chen out of Huaqing Pool.
Watching Long Chen go away, Yingfeng whispered: "Your Majesty, is Long Chen taking too many risks this time?"
The world will be a giant, and there are people behind the scenes. It is very dangerous to deal with such an organization.
Wanjinlou is an assassin organization, a group of desperadoes who only care about money, but Long Chen wants to negotiate cooperation with them and bet the key to success or failure on a group of assassins.
This time things were too risky.
The empress sighed: "This matter is indeed too risky. If it were anyone else, I would not agree."
"But Long Chen... whenever he does something without taking risks, it's all about taking chestnuts out of the fire."
“Trust Him and He can work miracles.”
Yingfeng smiled, not knowing what to say.
....
North Palace.
Di Lingyi was tinkering with something in the room. There were more than a dozen female doctors beside him, and a large number of precious medicinal materials were piled up.
A woman in white clothes with a medium build, fair skin, some baby fat, and dark brown hair took a list and checked the medicinal materials.
This woman is Emperor Lingyi's personal female officer, named Wen Shuzhen.
Wen Shuzhen is a homebody who is usually obsessed with medical skills and doesn't go out much.
Jia Shen Ling Yi had been guarding Yanmen Pass all these years, and Wen Shuzhen was hiding in Beigong, reading books and preparing medicines, without any sense of presence.
"Two taels of deep-sea fish maw, two red rock mushrooms..."
Wen Shuzhen skillfully directed everyone to prepare the medicine.
Emperor Lingyi looked at it carefully and said: "The order of using the medicine must not be wrong. If there is a slight mistake, it will be useless."
Wen Shuzhen nodded and said, "My subordinates know, so the princess can rest assured."
Everyone in Beigong was busy working on Dead Wood Pill, and all other things stopped.
"Princess, the fourth princess is here."
A pretty maid hurried in to report.
When they heard that Di Luoxi was coming, everyone stopped, and Beigong seemed to have pressed the pause button.
Di Lingyi and Di Luoxi had several conflicts over Long Chen, and everyone was a little nervous.
"The Fourth Princess didn't get the news... and came to cause trouble, right?"
Wen Shuzhen asked very worriedly.
She thought Di Luoxi had heard the news and came to destroy the elixir prepared by Di Lingyi.
Di Lingyi thought it was entirely possible, and said angrily: "If the fourth sister dares to do this, it doesn't matter if this sister doesn't want it! Bring me my gun!"
A strong maid came over holding Di Lingyi's spear.
Di Lingyi took the spear and angrily walked to the door.
When they arrived at the gate, they saw Di Luoxi walking in.
"Third sister, what are you doing? Are you going to fight?"
When Di Luoxi saw Di Lingyi walking out with a gun, she thought there was another war somewhere.
"What are you here for?"
Di Lingyi asked maliciously.
Di Luoxi was stunned for a moment and said, "I want to discuss something with you. Why do you think I'm here? To fight with you?"
Di Lingyi nodded slightly: "What are we discussing?"
She didn't let down her guard. She didn't know what Di Luoxi wanted to discuss. If she was asked to give up making the deadwood pill, Di Lingyi would not agree.
"What are you doing, third sister?"
Di Luoxi felt confused and walked into the North Palace.
When I arrived in the yard, I saw a group of people busy, and the scent of medicine filled the Beigong.
"Are you dispensing medicine?"
Di Luoxi looked at Di Lingyi strangely.
"Yes, I said, if I prepare the Deadwood Pill first, I will be first and you second."
Di Lingyi looked at Di Luoxi warily.
At this time, Di Luoxi felt very unhappy, but she did not have an attack because there were more important things.
"I have something urgent to discuss with you."
Di Luoxi entered Di Lingyi's room. Di Lingyi put the gun at the door, entered the room, and closed the door.
Outside the door, Wen Shuzhen looked at the room nervously, ready to enter the palace at any time to report to the empress that the two princesses were fighting again.
In the room, Di Luoxi sat down, and Di Lingyi also came in and sat down.
"Xiao Longlong is going to meet the owner of Wanjin Building tomorrow. Shen Wanjin asked him to go alone. I'm not worried. You go with me and ambush around. If there is any problem, we can handle it."
Di Luoxi got straight to the point and told the story.
Emperor Lingyi said in surprise: "Wanjinlou agreed? What is Long Chengen doing? How can he go to see Shen Wanjin alone? What if something goes wrong?"
Di Luoxi said: "I said the same, but there is nothing we can do about this matter. We don't have enough experts, so we can only ask for help from Wanjin Tower."
Di Lingyi sighed, she also knew this problem.
If they had enough experts, why would they join forces with the gang of desperadoes like Wanjinlou.
"Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow."
Although the two sisters have competition, they are unanimous on the issue of protecting Long Chen.
"Tomorrow morning, we will meet at the north gate."
Di Luoxi decided on the time and place and immediately left Beigong.
....
Long Chen came out of the palace and returned to Commander Long's Mansion.
Zhang Qian and the others were practicing in another courtyard. Everyone was working hard, but Long Chen didn't bother them.
Leave the other courtyard and arrive at the armory room.
This room is where Long Chen specially stores weapons.
He took out the key, opened the lock, and pushed the door open. There were various weapons inside, especially the crossbows, which had many hidden weapons.
Gongsun Linglong prepared a set of useful hidden weapons for Long Chen from Linglong Pavilion.
Long Chen picked out a piece of silk armor, two pairs of sleeve arrows, a fine steel dagger, and a fine steel fan.
Shen Wanjin is not a good person. When meeting him, you must prepare for the worst.
In addition to the armored weapon, Long Chen also took out a bottle of poison powder from the cabinet.
Hidden weapons can only attack one person, and poisonous powder can poison a person to death.
