From eunuch to emperor

He Juntao said: "I was guarding Zhangwu Village, and suddenly I saw two people raiding towards the north pier. I didn't dare to stop them. Those two people released a boat and ran down the river."

Long Chen looked at the corpse on the ground, and said: "These two people were in a panic, knowing that it would be difficult to escape on land, so they finally chose to leave by boat."

This was a very smart choice. The river was pitch black at night, and it was impossible to track them down. The two of them escaped unharmed.

A spy next to him said: "Take a boat at night, the downstream current is very fast, even the old boatmen dare not go, they will die if they go out."

After passing Youlong Town, the river is very turbulent, and it is very dangerous to go by boat during the day, let alone at night.

Moreover, the remaining two people came from the northern border and didn't know how to sail a boat at all. The spies thought they would die.

But Long Chen shook his head and said: "No, you underestimate them too much, even if they fall into the river, they won't die."

Long Chen knew how powerful the half-ghost body was, he could hold his breath for a long time in the water, and he could see clearly.

Even if Ji Zhang is thrown into the frozen sea by Bai Xue, he can finally get up.

These two just escaped unharmed.

He Juntao said regretfully, "It's a pity that two of them were leaked."

Long Chen said: "For a generous burial for this brother, the family will make good arrangements and give more money."

For the brothers who died in battle, Long Chen gave money very generously, and the household department has a special account, so everyone is not afraid of death.

He Juntao collected the body immediately, and Long Chen returned to Xianhe City overnight.

At this time, the two followers were riding a broken boat ups and downs in the river.

After the leader took four people ashore in Zhangwu Village, he found that there was a problem in the village and immediately hid in the bamboo forest.

When night fell, the five people escaped in three directions.

The leader took a person to the west to break through, but after running for a while, the leader killed the following spies, and then decisively escaped by boat.

None of them knew how to drive a boat, and they sent the boat into the center of the river with their true energy, and then drifted eastward with the current.

Even in the dark at night, they can see clearly, and the field of vision is not a problem.

The boat quickly passed Youlong Town, the river was choppy and the entourage clung to the side of the boat.

"I can't grasp the direction, we are going to collide."

The boat drifted with the current and almost hit the stone wall by the river several times, and the attendants screamed in fright.

The leader shouted: "What are you afraid of, we won't drown, jump with me!"

The leader raised his followers and jumped into the river.

The entourage had never entered the water, and when they got into the water, they kicked their hands and feet in fright. The leader lifted him out of the water, and a wave knocked him back into the water.

There was no way, the leader had to knock him out with a punch, and then drifted down the river.

Guessing that they were out of the control area of ​​the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, they took the lead to go ashore and headed towards Linhu City.

...

Xianhe City.

When Long Chen returned to the city, Yu Fuguo and Lu Ji hadn't arrived yet.

After taking a shower and changing clothes, Long Chen entered the Empress' room.

"My minister pays homage to the Holy Majesty."

Long Chen came in to meet him, Yingfeng was beside him holding a fan and gently fanning the wind, the empress was reviewing the memorial.

"How's it going?"

The empress put down the vermilion pen and asked.

Long Chen said: "A total of five people, three were killed and two left."

The Empress asked again: "How is your cultivation?"

Long Chen said: "In the late stage of Emperor Zun, all three are."

The Empress frowned, which meant that Ghost Tire had cultivated many masters, just like the stockpile of ammunition, there would be more when they ran out.

Ghost wombs are not afraid of death, Dazhou is different, and every emperor and strong man is scarce.

Moreover, these people are either relatives or relatives, and no one wants to watch their relatives die in battle.

"If you don't destroy the lair run by ghosts, there will be a steady stream of masters appearing."

The empress leaned on the couch, frowning tightly.

The appearance of the Empress with her eyebrows slightly squeezed towards the middle is very pretty, Long Chen likes this appearance the most.

"What are you looking at?"

The empress noticed Long Chen's gaze, and Long Chen immediately retracted, saying: "Cheng Qing of the Imperial City Division has done a great job this time. He drew a road map. Although he lost his heel after leaving Yanmen Pass, he can narrow down the search results according to this map." scope."

"I have sent the map to Feng He. Once I find it, I will go straight to the north."

The Empress said: "This place is thousands of miles away from the northern border, it's too far for you to go alone, if a ghost sneaks in, I won't be able to stop it."

Xianhe City is too far away from the northern grassland, even if Long Chen stays around day and night, it will take a long time, and the time to go back and forth is even longer.

If the ghost fetus takes this opportunity to attack, the empress is sure that she will not be able to defend herself.

I'm afraid that if the sneak attack fails in the end, I will be sneak attacked by a ghost instead.

Long Chen nodded and said: "Your Majesty's thoughts are good, I'm planning to make sure to take action at the safest time."

Feng He hasn't found a place yet, and Long Chen isn't ready either, it's just a plan now.

"Yu Fuguo and Lu Ji both contributed to this operation, and I would like to ask for credit for them."

Yu Fuguo has done a lot of service this time, and he has just attached himself to him, so he wants to win him over.

The empress said: "You can see and give it, I agree."

Long Chen bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust."

The empress glanced at the memorials on the table and said, "There are too many memorials, please review them for me."

The Empress gave up a seat and signaled Long Chen to sit beside her.

Long Chen thought to himself: This is a trap.

The empress was wearing a black tulle dress, and there was only a bellyband underneath. If Long Chen passed by, Yingfeng would definitely go out, and then the empress might be molested.

Not likely, almost certainly indecent.

Therefore, Long Chen can't go there.

"Thank you for your trust, the minister's review of the memorial is inappropriate, and I will resign."

Long Chen immediately exited the room, the empress cursed in her heart: Brat, you don't want to eat it!

After returning to the residence and running around for several days, Long Chen fell back to rest.

When he woke up, several people from Yu Fuguo had also returned.

"The subordinates were incompetent and failed to report in time, and finally escaped two..."

Yu Fuguo blamed himself, Lu Ji smiled and said, "Don't pretend, Father-in-law, King Wu is not Li Chengdao."

Long Chen said with a smile: "This time the father-in-law has contributed a lot, you found out in time, so we can intercept it."

Yu Fuguo smiled embarrassedly: "Ashamed, ashamed, it's just squatting."

Long Chen said: "Your Majesty bestowed 1000 taels of gold on your father-in-law, and it has already been sent to your yard. He will also give you a house in the capital."

Yu Fuguo was overjoyed, and bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, King Wu."

Long Chen said: "Others have rewards, Yingfeng will send them to you later, go back and rest."

Everyone thanked them, got up and went back to their room to rest, but Yu Fuguo did not leave.

"Eunuch, is there anything else?"

Long Chen smiled and poured Yu Fuguo a cup of tea.

Yu Fuguo picked up the tea, with a very awkward expression on his face, as if he was hesitant to speak.

"Is there anything else you can't say to me, father-in-law?"

Long Chen felt strange, what on earth was Yu Fuguo trying to say.

Yu Fuguo took a sip of tea and said, "Actually... hey, this... King Wu is not to blame."

Long Chen smiled and said, "I don't blame you, just tell me."

Yu Fuguo thought about it, but still felt that something was wrong, and said, "It's nothing, this subordinate will leave."

Long Chen said with a smile: "Elder-in-law, why do you have to be like this, just say what you have to say."
