Outside the east gate, Liu Feibai had already assembled 100,000 troops.
Liu Feibai came from a humble background, but it was Li Chengdao who promoted him to general, and he was very grateful to Li Chengdao in his heart.
Therefore, even if Guitai controls Daliang, he still maintains the courtesy of a monarch and his ministers.
"The general will pay homage to the emperor. The troops and horses have been assembled."
Li Chengdao nodded slightly and led Zhong Gui to the front of the formation.
Facing the generals, Li Chengdao said loudly: "My generals, Li Zhaoliang is plotting rebellion and usurpation. I am gathering heavy troops today to put down the rebellion!"
"I have appointed Zhong Gui as the General Supervisory Army. I hope you will follow General Zhong and fight bravely."
"I will give you a heavy reward for this battle. Anyone who has meritorious service will be crowned a marquis!"
"Remember, whoever kills a school captain will be named a school captain, whoever kills a general will be named a general, and whoever kills Li Zhaoliang will be named a king!"
Jinling City is the capital. If even the capital is captured, Daliang will not be considered a Daliang, and the emperor himself will not be considered an emperor.
Li Chengdao gave a heavy reward this time and must take back Jinling City.
The soldiers below were also a little excited, although Li Chengdao was controlled by the ghost and was a puppet emperor.
But the puppet emperor is also an emperor. He can get whatever title he kills. It's so tempting!
Zhong Gui stepped forward and said to the generals: "The Emperor has high hopes for us, and the generals must not let down the grace." ⑧①ZW.????m
"Suppressing Li Zhaoliang's rebellion, glory and wealth are just around the corner."
"Set off!"
Zhong Gui bowed deeply to Li Chengdao and led the army to set off immediately.
Li Chengdao watched Zhong Gui leave until the army disappeared.
"Your Majesty, go back."
Liu Feibai advised.
Li Chengdao returned to the city silently.
...
Linhu City.
He Juntao hurried into the backyard, and when he reached the door, he heard waves of gentle voices coming out.
He Juntao stopped immediately. After waiting for a long time, Yingfeng came out with a flushed face.
"Juntao?"
When Yingfeng saw He Juntao, she suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
He Juntao laughed in a low voice: "Master Yingfeng's voice is so delicate...ah...ah..."
Yingfeng pinched He Juntao and cursed in a low voice: "What are you talking about? Don't go in yet."
Yingfeng left in a hurry, and He Juntao went in after a while.
"Sir, I just received news that Zhong Gui has set off with one hundred thousand troops."
Xichang will definitely be able to detect such a big movement.
Long Chen drank a large bowl of tea and was sweating a lot. It looked like he had just experienced an intense exercise.
"Zhong Gui leads the army, what is his cultivation level?"
Long Chen didn't pay attention to Zhong Gui because he had been following Li Chengdao and had no sense of presence.
He Juntao said: "Cultivating... I don't know, but he practiced with Li Chengdao, so he probably won't be too bad."
Long Chen opened the window, and the cool breeze blew in, making him feel refreshed.
He Juntao smelled the rouge smell on Yingfeng's body.
"I thought I would let Liu Feibai lead the army, but I didn't expect that he ordered Zhong Gui."
Li Chengdao's move was indeed unexpected, and Long Chen didn't expect it.
Seeing that Long Chen was unprepared, He Juntao suddenly became worried and said, "Should we urgently send someone to defend Jinling?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "No, I have already made arrangements. If Zhong Gui goes there, he will die."
He Juntao felt strange and asked: "Zhong Gui's cultivation level is not low, and Yu Fuguo may not be able to deal with it."
In Jinling City, the one with the highest cultivation level is Yu Fuguo. It’s hard to say who is better between him and Zhong Gui.
Long Chen smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, don't worry, we just need to make sure that Guitai and Li Chengdao don't leave."
As long as the deterrence of Linhu City remains, Guitai and Li Chengdao will not be able to conquer in person, and Jinling City will be safe.
"It's almost time. Send a letter back for me."
Long Chen appeared as a shadow dragon, and he accepted the task of peace negotiation.
The roles are still being played and the plot continues.
He Juntao brought pen and ink, and Long Chen wrote a letter himself, and then stamped it with his King Wu's gold seal.
"Wait a minute, I'll ask the Holy One to put another seal on it."
Covering Long Chen's King Wu's golden seal can only represent Long Chen alone, and then covering it with the empress's jade seal. This is the agreement between Nan Liang and Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
Long Chen took the letter and walked into the empress's courtyard.
When they arrived at the door, the maid said that the empress was taking a shower in the bathroom.
It was hot in Nanliang, and the empress often soaked in the pool.
Long Chen planned to leave and wait until the empress finished washing.
Di Luoxi and Di Lingyi were both in the city, and they would be embarrassed if they knew they had broken into the empress's bathroom.
But the maid said: "The Holy One has told you that if King Wu comes, please come to the bath to pay homage."
Long Chen immediately said: "Just pretend I didn't come."
Just as Long Chen was about to leave, Ying Feng came out and said, "King Wu, the Holy One has invited you."
Long Chen was stunned and asked, "How did the Holy One know that I'm here?"
Yingfeng laughed softly and said: "The Holy One saw that you were coming. I just went to the bathroom."
Long Chen was speechless... The Empress was so shameless, actually doing such a dirty thing.
"All right."
Long Chen was helpless, the empress had her own plans and there was really nothing she could do.
After entering the bathroom, the empress was sitting on the table in the middle. Two maids wrapped their bodies in silk scarves and were washing the empress' hair.
"Your Majesty, King Wu has something to ask for."
The empress looked back and said, "Come here."
Long Chen deliberately walked over with the letter, and the cool well water flooded his knees. Long Chen walked to the empress' side and bowed: "Wei Chen drafted a peace negotiation letter to Li Zhaoliang and asked the Holy One to read it."
The empress glanced at it and said, "Wash my hair, where is your soap?"
Long Chen thought to himself: Mother-in-law, can you be more serious?
Yingfeng took the letter, and Long Chen immediately sent someone to the room to get soap.
Soon, the soap arrived, and Long Chen took it to wash the empress' hair.
The cool well water soaked the empress's dress, and she was only wearing a thin gauze skirt.
Long Chen stood, condescending, his black hair falling in front...
The black... must be hair.
After washing his hair, Long Chen said: "Your Majesty, your hair is washed."
The empress tied her hair behind her back and said, "Don't you want to wash the rest?"
Long Chen said awkwardly: "Your Majesty, how inconvenient it is..."
The empress snorted coldly and said, "Then let Yingfeng come, it's useless."
Long Chen walked up to the shore and watched. Yingfeng walked over and carefully served the empress from beginning to end while she was bathing.
Putting on a purple dress, the empress sat under the pavilion and blew her hair.
The cool breeze blew and the purple dress fluttered slightly. Long Chen felt a little regretful for being so reserved just now.
"Where's the letter?"
The Empress saw the remorseful look on Long Chen's face, and she was secretly proud in her heart: Brat, I gave you an advantage but didn't take advantage of it. You must regret it, I won't give it to you anymore!
Yingfeng immediately brought the letter. After reading it carefully, the empress said, "Okay, bring the jade seal."
Yingfeng immediately brought out a box, and the maid carried a table and placed it on it.
The letter was placed on the table, Yingfeng took out the jade seal, and the empress stamped it with her seal.
The jade seal of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the golden seal of King Wu fell at the same time, and this letter was enough to win the letter.
"take it."
The empress snorted coldly.
Long Chen received the letter with a smile and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will take my leave."
After hurriedly leaving the bath, Long Chen returned to the room, where Di Luoxi was playing with a musket.
When Long Chen came in, Di Luoxi asked, "Why are you going to the queen mother's bath?"
