From eunuch to emperor

Chapter 223 Gentle Acupuncture

The dark guard replied: "The general's guess is right. Long Chengen took the sun spar refined by the old Zhu Kingdom, and retreated in the Holy Palace for three days. When he came out, he was very weak. The fourth princess helped him go back."

This hidden guard is Mie Long, the person in charge newly promoted by Jing Tianlie.

The meaning of this name is obvious, it is to destroy Long Chen.

Jing Tianlie laughed loudly and said: "This Long Cheng'en, who was so smart for a while, actually used Yangjingshi to seek a breakthrough, and he is looking for a dead end!"

After the great eunuch Cheng Weizhi took Yangjingshi back then, although his cultivation reached the peak of the Martial Emperor, he bled to death three years later.

Taking Yang spar is tantamount to setting the date of death for oneself.

After Long Chen ate the Yangjing Stone, although his cultivation had improved, the date of his death was also fixed.

Jing Tianlie has nothing to worry about, even if he can't beat Long Chen, he can hide in Xixia and Nanliang and wait for Long Chen to die.

"Go ahead and keep staring at Long Chengen."

Mie Long turned around and left the room, and immediately returned to the capital.

Jing Tianlie sat on the top chair, feeling very refreshed.

"Jiang Lin!"

Jing Tianlie yelled, and Jiang Lin came in from outside.

"General."

"How about the recruiting?"

Jing Tianlie has been expanding his troops. He used to be secretive and didn't dare to act too much. Now he is recruiting semi-openly. Anyway, he is tearing his face with the empress.

Jiang Lin replied: "Very quickly, and recruited many good seedlings, our salary is not enough."

Jing Tianlie said with a smile: "How could it not be enough? Li Chengdao promised to manage enough food and pay, and ask the Nanliang special envoy to save more."

Li Yuanying had already left Jade Buddha Pass, but left behind a person from the Imperial City Department as a special envoy to contact.

Jing Tianlie not only needs food and pay for raising soldiers, but also needs a little more as a reserve.

Li Chengdao was deeply scheming, and Jing Tianlie was afraid that one day he would run out of food and food.

Jiang Linxi said: "The last general takes orders."

...

Nanliang, Jinling.

In the imperial study room, Xiao Yuer presented a secret performance, Li Chengdao opened it and read it, with a rare smile on his face.

"This Long Cheng'en is looking for his own death! The empress is really, such a good eunuch is actually used to deal with Jing Tianlie."

In Li Chengdao's eyes, courtiers like Long Chen are rare and should be reused instead of being used as pawns against Jing Tianlie.

"Violent waste, violent waste!"

Li Chengdao patted the table and sighed.

Seeing that Li Chengdao was in a good mood, Xiao Yuer boldly asked: "Your Majesty, what happened to that Long Chengen?"

Li Chengdao said with a smile: "The empress gave him Yangjingshi, and forcibly broke through the realm of the Martial Emperor."

Xiao Yu'er was surprised: "Isn't it a good thing to break through the Martial Emperor realm?"

Li Chengdao smiled and said: "You don't understand, the Yang Jingshi forcibly condenses the true energy in the body, it will drain people, and Long Cheng'en has at most three years to live."

"The empress has sent my confidant to a dead end, so wonderful!"

Li Chengdao thought of so many poisonous schemes to get rid of Long Chen, and even sent his own daughter to be an assassin, but all of them failed.

When I was worrying about what to do, I didn't expect the empress to give me a divine assist.

The little murloc bowed: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, for getting rid of this serious trouble!"

dong dong dong...

Outside the door, the eunuch Zhong Gui said: "Your Majesty, the third prince is asking to see you."

Xiao Yu'er bowed and disappeared into the room.

"Come in!"

Li Chengdao accepted the secret letter, eunuch Zhong Gui pushed the door in, and Li Yuanying followed behind.

"My son-in-law pays respects to his father."

Seeing that Li Chengdao was in a good mood, Li Yuanying guessed in her heart that the news about Long Chen had arrived.

Li Yuanying also had spies in the capital, and the news that Long Chen was taking Yangjingshi had already spread, so he naturally knew about it.

"What's the matter, prince?"

It was rare for Li Chengdao to be kind and pleasant.

Li Yuanying reported: "Jing Tianlie sent a letter asking for more food and salary, but my son and minister did not dare to be self-reliant, so I came here to report to my father."

With that said, he submitted the envoy's letter.

Li Chengdao looked at the list, and said with a chuckle: "This Jing Tianlie, the lion is so open, give it to him, and I will add another [-]% to him!"

Li Yuanying said in astonishment: "Father, Jing Tianlie has already asked for a lot, if I give more..."

Jing Tianlie gave more than half of the actual needs, and Li Chengdao added another [-]%, which was too much.

Li Chengdao said with a smile: "The empress is willing to pay, how can I be stingy, give it! Give it right away!"

The Empress wanted to eradicate Jing Tianlie even at the expense of Long Chen, so Li Chengdao must be more generous.

Li Yuanying said: "My son obeys the order!"

Exiting the Imperial Study Room, Li Yuanying returned to the Imperial City Department, Xie An, the head of the department, came over and asked, "What does the superior say?"

Li Yuanying said in a low voice: "Father asked us to add [-]% to send it over."

Xie An was surprised: "So much?"

Li Yuanying smiled sinisterly: "It's better to have more, you know how to do it?"

Xie An nodded slightly, and immediately went to the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of War to ask for military supplies and food.

...

Qiuxing Palace.

Long Chen was lying on the kang, Fei Linai was stirring the ointment at the side, Su Yourong turned his back to Long Chen, slowly lowered his shirt, and took off the breastplate inside and put it aside.

Long Chen watched Su Yourong take off the breastplate and it popped up instantly, feeling very happy in his heart.

After becoming a sick person, these beauties in the harem cared for Long Chen in every possible way, and would agree to any request.

In the past, Long Chen wanted to push, but Su Yourong always refused to agree.

It's different now, as soon as Long Chen said he was not feeling well and needed a gentle push, Su Yourong immediately made an ointment to satisfy him.

"Auntie, the ointment is ready to be mixed."

Fei Linai took the ointment jar over.

Su Yourong drew out a puddle of ointment with her fingers, spread it evenly on her palm, then spread it on her body, then climbed onto the kang, and said, "My lord, I'm starting to push you."

Long Chen pretended to be weak and said: "Aunt Lao."

Su Yourong lay on the kang with both hands, slowly leaned over, and then began to push the ointment all over the body.

After pushing a jar of ointment for a full hour, Su Yourong was so tired that he was sweating profusely.

"Auntie has worked hard."

Long Chen poured a cup of tea for Su Yourong, and took advantage of the situation to hug Su Yourong.

Su Yourong resisted slightly, but still sat on Long Chen's lap, letting Long Chen pick his way.

Fei Lina packed up her things and tidied up the room carefully.

"My lord, is it almost there?"

Su Yourong was a little speechless, every time Long Chen played it he couldn't stop.

"It's still early..."

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, it must be Bai Tingting who came back from practicing sword.

Only then did Long Chen let go of Su Yourong, and each got dressed.

The door opened, Bai Tingting came in, and saw Su Yourong helping Long Chen get dressed.

"Acupuncture again today?"

Bai Tingting asked with some distress.

"Yes, after acupuncture and moxibustion, it's much better."

Long Chen opened his eyes and spoke nonsense.

Su Yourong chimed in and said, "My lord still has blood in his body, it will be much better after acupuncture."

Fei Lina bowed her head and did not speak, but said in her heart: These two people are really...

"Come on, follow me to the South Camp to see how the recruits are doing."

Long Chen put on his clothes, put on his boots, and took Bai Tingting to the South Camp.
