From eunuch to emperor

Chapter 68 Suspicion

Concubine Shu asked: "The emperor means that Shangguan Wei is still forbearing, does he have other plans?"

Li Chengdao's eyes were gloomy and cold, and he said lightly: "You can hold back your son after he's dead, what a great general."

Concubine Shu didn't know whether this was a compliment or belittlement, whether it was to say that Shangguan Wei was able to calm down, or that Shangguan Wei was cruel.

"Send an order to Shangguan Wei, let him use his troops well, and I will fully support him."

Li Chengdao said something lightly, without any emotion, eunuch Zhong Gui immediately drafted an order, and then sent it to the camp ahead.

When the imperial decree arrived at the front camp, Shangguanwei took Shangguanxiu and a group of generals to receive the imperial decree.

Eunuch Zhong Gui held the imperial decree in his hand and read aloud: "I already know about your battle ahead. Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs. I will wait for your triumphant return. The general will use his troops well. I will fully support you. Don't worry about the future."

Shangguan Wei stood up and bowed, "I accept the order."

Zhong Gui held the imperial decree to Shangguan Wei with both hands, and said with a smile: "Old general, the superior knows that you have worked hard in the field, and specially asked our family to come here to deliver the decree. Use your troops well, and the superior knows that the general will win."

Shangguan Wei pulled Zhong Gui into the army tent, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Eunuch, for speaking kindly for this old man in front of the superior."

Zhong Gui laughed quickly and said, "Where can it be said, good or bad is in the mind of the superior."

There was no one else in the tent, Shangguan Wei said: "A few days ago I broke Linjiang City, although I didn't take it, I killed tens of thousands of her, and got some things, all of which were placed in the carriage by the side of the road, father-in-law, wait Go back and let the carriage follow."

Zhong Gui smiled happily: "The old general will definitely make a contribution if he takes action. Our family will go back and return to order. We will stay soon."

Shangguanwei personally sent Zhong Gui out of the army tent, and sent him several li before returning to the camp.

Shangguanxiu came up to meet him, with a sad face, sighed: "The superior is dissatisfied with us."

After being in court for so long, Shangguanxiu knew very well that if Li Chengdao was really satisfied, he would not send an envoy.

"It's normal, we're playing like this, can the superior be satisfied!"

Shangguanwei sighed, he didn't expect that he would be reduced to the point of currying favor with a eunuch.

What he said just now was implying that even though he did not win Linjiang City, he still had credit for it, and he gave Zhong Gui a gift in the hope that he would say something nice.

"What's going on in Linjiang City?"

"The city has been resting for the past few days. Their loss this time is not small. There is also an important piece of information. They secretly transported troops from Diaoyu City to Linjiang City at night."

Although Shangguanxiu was injured, he kept staring at every move in the city.

A smug smile appeared on Shangguanwei's face: "Okay, you will go back to Quarry City immediately."

Shangguan Xiu's face brightened, "Is the time coming?"

Shangguanwei nodded: "Here we are."

Shangguanxiu got up and got out of the military tent, and went back to his own tent, coughing non-stop, and asked the guards to pack up his things.

When Shangguanfeng heard that Shangguanxiu was leaving, he hurried over to ask about the situation.

Shangguanxiu said helplessly: "I was injured too badly to participate in the war again. My father asked me to go back to Caishi City to recuperate. You follow your father and must break through Linjiang City to avenge your dead brothers."

Shangguan Feng gritted his teeth and said: "Don't worry, Major General, the last general will definitely kill that dead eunuch!"

Shangguanxiu dragged his exhausted body, got into a carriage, and returned to Quarry City with the army, as well as the wounded soldiers.

With this move, tens of thousands of people were missing from the camp.

After Shangguanxiu left, Shangguanwei summoned Shangguan Li, Shangguan Feng, Shangguan Liang and Shangguan Yi.

The four stood under the tent, and Shangguanwei felt an inexplicable desolation in his heart.

Originally he had many soldiers, but now his sons are dead and disabled, Shangguan Qixiu only has four left.

All the casualties were related to Long Chengen, Shangguan Wei secretly swore that when Linjiang City was destroyed, Long Chengen's body must be cut into thousands of pieces and his skin cramped.

"How are the equipment for the siege prepared?"

The first two attacks, the first battle and the second surprise attack, all failed.

This time, Shangguanwei wanted to fight steadily, so he stormed Linjiang City with siege equipment.

Shangguan Yi replied: "General Hui, I'm ready to attack the city at any time."

Shangguanwei gave orders a few days ago, and the four of them prepared together, and everything was ready.

After the brother died, they were suffocating fire in their hearts.

"Okay, attack the city in two days!"

Shangguan Wei said coldly.

The four bowed their hands together: "The last general takes orders!"

...

Linjiang City.

When the empress' edict arrived in the city, Emperor Luoxi took the edict and said, "Xiao Longlong, the queen mother praised you."

Long Chen was sitting behind him, pinching Di Luoxi's shoulders, then slowly went down, then moved forward, and then pinched...

"What are you doing? It's broad daylight!"

Di Luoxi shrank instinctively, covering her front with her hands.

Long Chen said: "Princess, do you find it strange that the Shangguan old thief has been too quiet these two days?"

Di Luoxi received the edict and said, "It's not your trick. I heard that they have been busy treating the wounded soldiers for the past few days, and the camp is full of screams."

Di Luoxi didn't know that there was still a master of the Martial Emperor's realm hidden in Caishi City, so she wasn't worried.

In the two battles, Shangguan Mu and Shangguan Hu were killed, Shangguan Xiu was seriously injured, and tens of thousands of Tianwei Army were killed.

Di Luoxi felt that this battle was basically won, so she was not in a hurry.

But Long Chen kept thinking, why the master didn't come out last time, there must be other plots.

Li Xiannan came in from the outside and said in a hurry: "Princess, Shangguanxiu brought the wounded soldiers back to the Quarry City to recuperate. Shangguanwei prepared the siege equipment and planned to attack the city."

"In addition, it seems that someone from Jinling has come, and it may be Li Chengdao's emissary."

Both sides are monitoring each other's movements. Li Xiannan also knows what happened in the Shangguanwei barracks.

Di Luoxi thought for a moment, and said: "It must be that Li Chengdao is in a hurry, he is too suspicious, but it's strange, Shangguan Wei's son died, and he still doubts?"

Li Chengdao was suspicious, and the whole world knew about it, and the Tatsuno family died because of suspicion.

Long Chen sneered and said: "How did Li Chengdao ascend to the throne? He killed his father and elder brother, and his biological mother was imprisoned in the cold palace. Who can he trust?"

Li Chengdao was originally the third prince. He came to power through a coup. He could kill his own father and brother, so how dare he believe that others would be loyal to him.

Qingyue said: "Shangguanxiu was hit by you with a hammer, and he can no longer go to the battlefield. It is normal to take the wounded soldiers back to recuperate."

Xuan Yi also said: "That's right, there are so many wounded soldiers staying in the camp, once a big battle breaks out, they have to take care of the wounded soldiers."

Zhang Qian didn't speak, she looked at Long Chen.

Long Chen always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out.

"If...you were Shangguanwei, what would you do now?"

Long Chen asked Emperor Luoxi.

Di Luoxi thought for a while, and said: "The generals suffered heavy casualties, but their strength is still superior. I will attack the city with all my strength, just like Shangguanwei is doing now."

Long Chen asked again: "If you still have a master in the middle stage of Martial Emperor, what will happen to you?"

hiss...

Di Luoxi turned around abruptly, stared at Long Chen and asked, "What do you mean?"
