From eunuch to emperor

"No, he's not sincerely cooperating, he wants to use me for his own purposes."

Long Chen said very firmly.

The Empress frowned and asked, "Why do you say that?"

Long Chen said: "The two things that Ji Zhang said, the first request is to restore the country and cede the territory of Nanliang. This request seems excessive, but it is actually nonsense."

"Ji Zhang broke through to Emperor Zun 20 years ago. At that time, his cultivation level might even surpass that of the Holy One. He was the most powerful man in the world. If he really wanted to restore the country, at that time, he could rely on the resources of the Tianxia Association and his cultivation level to restore the country. Easy as pie."

"But he didn't choose to restore the country. He pretended to die, handed over the Tianxiahui to Ji Ba, and hid his whereabouts by himself."

"He must have other plans. He wants more than restoring the country."

When Ji Zhang made the first request, Long Chen didn't think there was any problem.

At that time, when Ji Zhang told about his experience, Long Chen realized something was wrong.

Ji Zhang ate the jerky of the ghost clan 20 years ago, his body changed and his cultivation level improved. He is fully capable of restoring the country, but he didn't.

Therefore, Ji Zhang must be plotting something else, not looking for an antidote.

This brings up the second question, Ji Zhang's search for an antidote.

"He said that the second request was to detoxify the corpse, which is also wrong."

"He has searched for 20 years and found nothing. How can I find it?"

"Besides, he can figure out a way to unravel the poison of the corpse by himself, and there is no need to ask me for help."

Ji Zhang has such a high level of cultivation, he can just find the antidote by himself, and looking for Long Chen is unnecessary.

"It's too unwise to ask me to find a way, to be attached to me, to be tied to my chariot, and to be an enemy of Nanliang and the ghost clan."

Long Chen felt that what Ji Zhang did seemed to be brilliant, but it was actually full of loopholes.

After listening to the empress, she nodded slightly and said: "You are right, if you were someone else, you might really be deceived."

"Speaking out excessive demands is closely related to oneself. The two demands seem very reasonable at first glance."

Ji Zhang is very smart, he knows that it is not easy to win the trust of Yu Longchen.

So, he used two requests, neither of which were easy to resolve, much like enough leverage.

It's a pity that Long Chen is very smart, and immediately saw through Ji Zhang's plot.

"Since you know he has other plans, why did you agree to cooperate with him?"

The empress didn't understand what Long Chen was thinking, after seeing through Ji Zhang's plan, she was still false and submissive, what was Long Chen planning?

Long Chen said: "I have a feud with Ji Zhang, and it's a blood feud. If I break it directly, a direct conflict will break out."

"Since he pretends to be attached to me, I will take advantage of the situation. I don't know what he is planning for the time being, but it should be true to deal with Nanliang and Guitai."

"He has no need to protect Nanliang. As for the ghost clan, what he wants seems to be related to the ghost clan."

Long Chen also thought about whether Ji Zhang would join hands with Nan Liang to deal with him because of Ji Ba's matter.

If Ji Zhang joins forces with Nanliang and Guitai, what he should do is to mobilize the remaining forces of the Tianxiahui to deal with him.

Or, Ji Zhang lurks around Long Chen to gather information and coordinate the actions of Nanliang and Guitai.

Ji Zhang didn't do this, but asked to cooperate with Long Chen, and even informed the ghost fetus' actions.

Therefore, Long Chen judged that Ji Zhang wanted to use Lian himself to deal with Guitai and Nanliang.

As for the reason, what Ji Zhang wants is likely to be with the ghost clan, because Ji Zhang has been to Shengxue Peak, and he wanted to get something from Shengxue Peak, but was beaten by Bai Xue and fled.

As for what Ji Zhang wanted, Long Chen couldn't figure it out for a moment.

Since Ji Zhang wants to use himself to deal with Nanliang and the ghost clan, then cooperate temporarily. Even if Ji Zhang doesn't work hard, the conflict can be avoided.

The empress felt strange and said, "Ji Zhang can clearly hide in the dark and watch the tigers fight, why did he show up?"

Before that, no one knew about Ji Zhang's existence.

He can hide in the dark and plot, it is safer to do so.

But Ji Zhang didn't, he chose to come out and ask Long Chen for cooperation.

Long Chen shook his head and said: "I'm also wondering why, if it were me, I would choose to hide in the dark and provoke."

The empress pondered for a long time, but couldn't figure out why Ji Zhang did this.

Long Chen said: "Let's ignore why he acted like this for now, Ji Zhang said that the ghost fetus is secretly gathering forces and intends to attack us."

"I have to figure out where the target of the ghost fetus is, and the surprise attack of Luo Xi and Ling Yi can't happen again."

The empress said: "If you attack the city, it will be Diaoyu City, Anmu City and the capital. These three places are important. Other places...I can't think of them."

The empress's thoughts were similar to Long Chen's, both thought that these three places were most likely to be attacked by surprise.

Long Chen said: "I will immediately arrange people to strengthen the security of these three places, and monitor the surrounding movements at the same time."

For these people, they can only choose to monitor, and the spies dare not approach them.

Be it Feng He or He Juntao, even Yingfeng didn't dare to fight those people head-on.

These people are almost all strong men above the Martial Emperor, if they want to destroy them, Long Chen or the Empress must take action.

At the very least, Master Ziyun and Master Miaoyin must take action to defeat it.

"The number of them is unknown, the target is unknown, this kind of sneak attack is a headache."

The empress found it difficult, Long Chen also said: "The ghost fetus has been deployed in the Central Plains for hundreds of years, and his power spreads all over the world, so it can only be eradicated slowly."

In any case, the ghost fetus has been in business for hundreds of years, and it is impossible to eradicate his power without paying a price.

"It's not too late, I'll make arrangements right away."

Long Chen immediately withdrew, this time the empress did not keep her, it was important to do.

After leaving the room, Yingfeng was outside.

"King Wu came out again, the Holy Majesty will be angry."

Yingfeng laughed and joked, Long Chen didn't talk to her, but said: "I have something serious to say, the ghost's subordinates may launch a sneak attack, we must keep track of their movements."

When Yingfeng heard about it, she immediately said: "King Wu, please give me instructions!"

Long Chen said: "The shadow guard immediately monitors the area around Diaoyu City, especially the east of Diaoyu City, and beware of their surprise attack on Diaoyu City."

Yingfeng didn't ask the empress for instructions, and went to do it immediately.

The current Long Chen and the empress do not distinguish between you and me at all, the empress must agree with what Long Chen said.

Long Chen went back to his yard and found He Juntao.

"Let the people in Anmu City monitor the surrounding area for hundreds of miles, and at the same time send out the rest of the people to monitor the area around the river. If any master crosses the river, report it immediately."

He Juntao went to do it immediately.

Long Chen returned to the room and immediately wrote a letter to Yan Shuangyu.

There is also a new force in the capital, the Jinyiwei established by Yanshuangyu, Xiuniang and Menglan.

According to Long Chen's original plan, after breaking Jinling, he would break with the Empress, and the West Factory would no longer be used.

Now the plan has changed, Jin Yiwei has been secretly defending the capital according to Long Chen's arrangement.

Long Chen wrote a letter to Yan Shuangyu, telling the three of them to pay attention to the surroundings of the capital and be careful of the attacks of ghost-born masters.

After sending out the letter, Long Chen sat down and carefully thought about every word and look in Ji Zhang's eyes, trying to find out Ji Zhang's real plot.

This person's ability to develop the world to its peak is definitely not something in the pool, it is not as simple as it seems.

What if I killed him just now?

Long Chen suddenly had a strange idea.

One reason why he didn't do anything to Ji Zhang just now was because of Ji Xianxian.

Anyway, Ji Zhang is Ji Xianxian's father, and he felt sorry for Ji Xianxian for killing Ji Zhang without showing any threat.

"What the hell is he thinking?"

Long Chen leaned on the chair, looking at the sparse stars outside the window.
