From eunuch to emperor

After receiving the letter, Gongsun Linglong immediately crossed the river to Xianhe City.

Seeing Gongsun Linglong, the Empress smiled kindly and said, "Come, Linglong sit here."

Gongsun Linglong glanced at Long Chen, smiled and sat beside the empress.

"How is your practice?"

The empress straightened Gongsun Linglong's messy hair, and Gongsun Linglong smiled and said, "It's pretty good, but not as fast as the princesses and the others."

Gongsun Linglong looked at Long Chen, and said, "Let me eat meat. After eating meat, my cultivation speed is very fast."

Gongsun Linglong is envious of Zhang Qian and Dugu Jiali's rapid practice speed, and also wants to practice by eating meat.

Long Chen shook his head and said: "No, Lao Zhuguo didn't agree, I can't do this."

The empress also said: "If you eat meat, you are no longer a human being. You can't eat it."

Gongsun Linglong knew it, but she just thought, since everyone around her ate it, she didn't care.

"Your Majesty didn't eat it too, what am I afraid of?"

The empress said: "If I don't give you food, there is a reason for not giving it to you. This time I'm here to ask you to do something important."

Gongsun Linglong asked, "Do you want to attack by force?"

She thought that Long Chen was going to attack and let her take the lead.

The empress looked at Long Chen, and said: "He will make arrangements, you just listen to him."

Gongsun Linglong looked at Long Chen, and Long Chen said, "It's just blacksmithing."

Hearing about blacksmithing, Gongsun Linglong was displeased and said, "You called me here just for blacksmithing? I won't do it!"

Long Chen explained: "I thought of a way to break through Linhu City, I need a few giant iron chains, this is up to you."

"Success or failure depends on you. If you do it on time, everything is easy to talk about."

"If we can't do it... we can only attack by force, at least [-] casualties."

When Long Chen said this, Gongsun Linglong became serious.

"That's it, that's okay, tell me, how do you do it?"

The Empress stood up and said, "Okay, for specific matters, you can follow King Wu's arrangements."

Gongsun Linglong paid homage: "Respectfully send off the Holy Majesty."

The Empress left, Gongsun Linglong walked to Long Chen's side, stepped on the coffee table with one foot, picked up Long Chen's tea and drank it.

Lifting the skirt, Long Chen looked at Gongsun Linglong's bold and unrestrained appearance, and said, "You don't think I need to be so proactive, do you? What kind of place is this?"

Gongsun Linglong put down the teacup, took her foot off the coffee table, and said, "Tch, Your Majesty is here, how dare you do anything?"

These words sounded provocative, Long Chen got up, picked up Gongsun Linglong and pressed him on the chair, and said: "So what if the Holy Majesty is here? Believe it or not, I will deal with you now!"

Gongsun Linglong opened her hands and said provocatively: "Come on, my sister is still afraid of you..."

Having said that, Long Chen is not a man if he doesn't do anything.

...

Chamber.

Long Chen was sitting at the head, Wu Jian was on the left, Gongsun Linglong was on the right, and there was a map on the table.

"There is an iron mine here, but people have escaped. I will transfer people from the army to assist you, and I will also try to transfer the craftsmen around me."

"Time is very urgent. Before the rainy season comes, we must make good chains."

Long Chen pointed to a place, this is the location of the iron mine.

Gongsun Linglong listened obediently and nodded slowly.

Just now Long Chen treated Gongsun Linglong submissively, and he did whatever Long Chen said.

"Are you leaving today?"

Long Chen asked, Gongsun Linglong looked angry, and said: "I can still ride a horse today? Who are you!"

Long Chen was speechless, Wu Jian tried his best not to laugh.

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Linglong realized that Wu Jian was beside her, and said, "Let's go tomorrow, I'm too tired today."

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Linglong got up and walked slowly back to the room to rest.

"Major General, after so many years, I still haven't learned how to be sympathetic to women."

Wu Jian laughed and joked, Long Chen had nothing to say.

...

The next day, Gongsun Linglong took people to the iron mine, Long Chen hired the craftsmen around him at a high price, and the casting of iron chains began.

...

In the inner courtyard of the city, Yu Fuguo was sitting in the middle, while Chen Lian was sitting on a stone bench beside him with ragged clothes and a haggard face.

More than 30 spies were in the yard, some were sitting on stools, some were sitting on the floor, without exception, their clothes were all dirty, like a lost dog.

Lu Ji came in from the door, followed by several people, carrying several large baskets with meat buns on them.

"The buns are here."

Lu Ji put it down, and the spies pounced on it, grabbed it and stuffed it into his mouth.

Lu Ji took the bun and handed it to Chen Lian. Chen Lian gobbled it up and almost choked himself to death.

Lu Ji poured a bowl of water, and Chen Lian swallowed the bun stuck in his throat.

After eating a few buns, Chen Lian put his hands on the table, feeling alive.

Others, too, leaned against the wall when they were full, and someone was already asleep.

"Elder-in-law, we escaped all the way from Jinling and escaped capture, and we arrived here."

After escaping from the Imperial City Division, Chen Lian led his people to Xianhe City.

On the way, officers and soldiers chased and killed them. When they arrived in Xianhe City, there were only 32 people left.

Looking at Chen Lian, Yu Fuguo felt a little uncomfortable.

In any case, these people are his subordinates, because his rebellion has affected the entire Imperial City Division.

For a moment, Yu Fuguo didn't know how to answer.

"Don't blame the father-in-law, he is also helpless."

Lu Ji felt uncomfortable seeing his former colleagues in such desperation.

Yu Fuguo got up and said: "You wait, I will go to King Wu and ask him to take you in."

After finishing speaking, Yu Fuguo went out to look for Long Chen.

Arriving at the courtyard, Yu Fuguo entered Long Chen's room.

"The next official pays homage to King Wu."

Yu Fuguo looked sad, Long Chen put down the map, and asked, "For the matter of the Imperial City Division?"

Long Chen already knew that so many people entered the city.

Yu Fuguo nodded and said, "Speaking of which, I was the one who harmed them..."

Long Chen got up and said: "It depends on their own wishes, those who are willing to stay stay, and those who want to leave give money."

Yu Fuguo bowed, "Thank you King Wu, I will take my leave."

Back in the courtyard, Chen Lian was talking to Lu Ji.

Yu Fuguo walked in and said to everyone: "King Wu said, those who are willing to stay will stay, and those who want to leave will be paid for their families."

Chen Lian said with tears: "Our family has lost all the settlement expenses, what more do we need for settlement expenses, I want to kill ghosts, Li Chengdao, I want revenge!"

The spies in the yard got up and cursed: "Revenge!"

They worked their lives for Daliang, and finally fell to destroying the Nine Clans. The hatred in their hearts was like a torrent of water, and it would not be enough to vent if it was not submerged in Daliang.

"Okay, let's not talk about anything else, we will avenge you!"

Yu Fuguo took Chen Lian and others in, and reorganized the Imperial City Division in Xianhe City.

Chen Lian settled in the city, and Yu Fuguo arranged a small courtyard for him.

After a few days of rest, Chen Lian's health improved.

Lu Ji walked in from the outside, holding a bottle in his hand.

"Is Siwu Chen better?"

Lu Ji walked in with a smile, and Chen Lian smiled and said, "I'm better, but I have some abdominal pain."

Lu Ji handed him the bottle and said, "King Wu said that you were injured in Longxing Valley, and this pill will work."

Chen Lian took the bottle and said in surprise, "King Wu still remembers me?"

Lu Ji sat down and said, "You and King Wu are also old acquaintances."

Chen Lian laughed dryly: "Brother, you are making fun of me."

Lu Ji saw that Chen Lian was holding the bottle and said with a smile: "Eat it, King Wu is not Li Chengdao, he will not give poison."

Chen Lian smiled awkwardly: "This... the habit hasn't changed."

After speaking, Chen Lian opened the bottle, poured out a pill, and swallowed it with his head raised.

After the elixir entered the abdomen, a cool feeling dissipated, and the abdominal pain gradually eased.
