From eunuch to emperor

When Gongsun Linglong understood, Long Chen had already returned to the capital.

The maid dismounted at the gate of the palace, Long Chen continued to ride to Fengming Palace.

In the bedroom, the empress was still talking to Di Yuwei and Di Xingwan.

"What's the big deal these days?"

After saying some homely things, the empress asked about government affairs.

Di Xingwan said: "There is one, Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai both want to go to the northern border, and ask the queen mother for permission."

The empress asked strangely: "Why are the two of them going to the north?"

Di Yuwei immediately said: "This is their request to Baili Bing, and Long Chen agreed. He said that Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai just don't give up."

"Let them meet Li Chengdao and the ghost clan, and they will give up."

"Moreover, Long Chen didn't let them go by themselves, they must go north with Long Chen."

The empress nodded slightly and said, "Oh, that's fine, if the two of them give up, so will the generals under him."

"It would be best if we could bring them in. The soldiers in Nanliang need to be in command. Our generals command, and they may not necessarily cooperate."

To deal with the ghost clan, not only the soldiers of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty should be used, but also the soldiers of the Southern Liang Dynasty.

But there is a problem. The soldiers of Nanliang were commanded by the generals of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and the effect may not be good.

The combat habits and command habits of the two sides are different, and the Nanliang soldiers may not be convinced.

If Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai took over, the situation would be much better.

Long Chen should have considered this, so he agreed to the request of the two of them.

Di Xingwan said: "My son thinks so too. King Wu asked them to go with him, probably because he wanted to win them over."

Instigate rebellion and win over, this is Long Chen's forte.

Killing is easy, but buying is the hardest.

While the two were talking, Long Chen walked in from the outside.

Seeing the Empress and the two princesses together, Long Chen's gaze purposely stayed on Di Yuwei for a while.

The empress had a keen sense and immediately noticed something was wrong.

Of course, the Empress didn't ask anything on the spot, she just pretended she didn't see it.

"My minister pays homage to the Holy Majesty."

"The princess is here too."

Long Chen smiled and sat opposite.

The Empress asked, "What are you doing in Linglong Pavilion?"

Long Chen said: "I went to find Linglong and asked her to make some needed weapons for dealing with the ghost clan."

Of course, I took advantage of it by the way.

The Empress said: "I just wanted to ask you, it's late autumn now, when are you going to go to Yanmen Pass?"

The snow fell earlier in the northern border, if Long Chen was not there, Guitai and Li Chengdao took the opportunity to sneak attack, Zhang Man would definitely not be able to stop it.

Long Chen said: "I'm waiting for Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai. As soon as they arrive, I'll go north immediately."

The Empress nodded and said, "I just heard that you want to win over the two of them to lead the soldiers in Nanliang?"

Long Chen said: "Yes, it is more appropriate for the soldiers of Nanliang to be led by the generals of Nanliang. Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai are the five tiger generals, and they also obey."

"The generals in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty who commanded troops would have a sense of superiority, and the soldiers might feel disgusted."

Anyway, Long Chen wiped out Nanliang, these soldiers are subjugated people, and their hearts are very sensitive.

If the general beats and scolds, the soldiers may think of the subjugation of the country.

It would be different if it was Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai, they were their own people, and they could be beaten or scolded at will.

"Okay, then I will set off with you."

Long Chen went north, the empress had to go together.

In case Martial Saint and Ghost Girl wake up, Long Chen can't deal with it alone.

Long Chen nodded and said: "I will make arrangements, the Long family army has almost rested."

While talking, Di Yuwei kept thinking about proposing marriage.

Long Chen promised to propose marriage to the Empress and asked Di Yuwei to marry him.

But Di Xingwan was present, and Di Yuwei was not easy to speak.

"Wei Chen retire."

Long Chen noticed the strange look in Di Yu's eyes, and was worried that she would be very embarrassed when she suddenly proposed a marriage.

Exiting the bedroom, Long Chen rode out of the palace and arrived at a house in the south of the city.

Dismounted in front of the door, knocked on the heavy door, a maid opened the door, saw Long Chen, said happily: "My lord is here."

Long Chen entered, and the maid led the horse.

Hearing the sound of the door opening in the courtyard, everyone came out to check the situation.

A strong woman with a beard came out and said pleasantly, "King Wu is here."

This woman is Lacanon.

"Is Princess Belloya alright?"

Long Chen asked with a smile.

Lakanon smiled and said: "They are all well, King Wu please come with your slaves."

Lacanon has gotten used to the life of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and his words, deeds, behavior and titles are all the same.

Hearing the voice, two slender women with amber eyes and brown hair came out from the Western Regions. They were still wearing Western Region costumes.

Long Chen didn't ask them to change their clothes, they wore Western Region clothes, which looked more Western Region style.

"Meet King Wu."

Belloya, the self-proclaimed princess, was in front, and Zalisha stood behind.

Beloya is charming and Zarisa is noble, their identities and temperaments are not compatible.

"It's nothing unaccustomed to it."

Long Chen took Beloya's hand and walked in, Zha Lisha followed behind.

Entering the bedroom, it is covered with camel hair carpets, some from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and some from the Western Regions.

Long Chen gave a lot of money, and they could buy things from the Western Regions if they wanted to.

Beloya replied: "King Xie Wu is concerned, we are all well."

Beroya's Chinese language is very good, so Lacanon doesn't need to translate it.

Long Chen sat down and said: "Just get used to it, sit down."

Belloya sat down, and Zalisha stood behind her.

Long Chen glanced at Zha Lisha, and said, "Is there any news about Uz Kingdom recently?"

They often ask the businessmen in the Western Regions for news about the Uz Kingdom, and they are more diligent than Long Chen, so they ask this way.

Beloya replied: "I heard that there is a civil strife in Uzbekistan. Two princes and princesses are fighting for the throne. I don't know what the final result will be."

Long Chen asked curiously: "If there are princes and princesses, can the princess still inherit?"

Belloya replied: "Yes, in the Western Regions, it is very common for a princess to become a queen."

Long Chen nodded slightly, and said, "It's a little different from our Central Plains."

In the Central Plains, if there are princes and princesses, the prince must succeed.

Even if there is no prince, brothers and nephews will succeed. It is impossible for a princess to become emperor.

In the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, because the empress did not marry and had no prince, the princess succeeded to the throne.

Lacanon came in to make tea, poured two cups of tea, and made black tea.

Long Chen took a sip, and Beloya also drank a little. She prefers milk tea, but she doesn't like the water made from leaves.

"I heard that there are demons in the north, is King Wu going?"

For the first time, Belloya took the initiative to ask questions.

Long Chen nodded slightly and said: "Yes, ghosts have appeared in the northern border, and we Central Plains people are going to fight the ghosts."

Belloya asked, "What does the devil look like? Is it scary?"

Long Chen smiled, and said: "They look...similar to us, but they are more powerful, faster, and have higher cultivation bases."

"Also, they like to drink human blood, they can eat people."

Speaking of cannibalism, Beloya and Zalisha were scared at the same time.

"Isn't this a vampire!"

Zarissa who was standing behind said.

Belloya nodded slightly and said, "It sounds like it."

Long Chen asked curiously: "You also have legends about devils?"

This question is actually a bit redundant. There are fears everywhere, and this fear is called the devil.

People from the Western Regions are also human beings, and they have their own fears, and of course they have the devil in their eyes.
