From eunuch to emperor

Xianhe City.

Long Chen returned to the city from the mine and found Wu Jian.

"Uncle Wu, recruit some carpenters for me, not too many carpenters, but more woodcutters, I want to pretend to build warships in Linhu."

"Mobilize some more soldiers and horses, and set up camp in the southwest of Linhu to prevent Nanliang from attacking."

The iron chain is already being built, and the big tree blocking the mouth of the lake is also being prepared.

Wu Jian said: "Okay, I'll do it right away."

...

Linhu City.

Feng Erniang walked into the ghost's room, with two attendants standing guard beside her.

"Master, Long Chen is building a barracks on the southwestern bank of Linhu Lake. The lumberjacks are cutting giant logs in the mountains, and they are also building a dock by the lake. It seems that they really plan to build a navy."

Guitai opened his eyes and said, "Call Li Chengdao and the others."

Feng Erniang sent an order immediately.

Not long after, Li Chengdao climbed into the room, kowtowed and said: "The servant pays homage to the Holy Son."

Guitu ignored it and continued to meditate cross-legged.

Yu Ziming, Yan Xi, Wu Hongying, and Xuan Jizi climbed into the room and kowtowed to meet him.

Only then did the ghosts slowly open their eyes and let them kneel on the ground.

"Long Chen is building a dock in the southwest of Linhu Lake, and plans to set up a navy in Linhu Lake. What do you think?"

Hearing this, everyone was a little surprised.

They didn't expect Long Chen to do this.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Guitai clicked on the Xuanji and said, "What do you think?"

Xuanjizi immediately kowtowed and replied: "This servant thinks... maybe Long Chen has other plans."

Xuanjizi didn't know what to say at all, so he could only talk nonsense.

But the ghost got interested and asked: "What do you think he is trying to do?"

Xuanjizi was stunned, unable to think of what to say.

"Be smart."

The ghost sneered coldly, and Xuanji kowtowed to apologize.

"Tell me."

The ghost looked at Li Chengdao and Yu Ziming.

Yu Ziming raised his head and said, "Reporting to the Holy Son, the moat around Linhu City is strong, and the fortifications around it are also well-established. There is too much resistance to attacking from the northeast."

"The rainy season will come soon, when the lake will rise, warships will be able to reach the two southwestern city walls, and Long Chen is good at naval warfare, so this move is very threatening."

Yu Ziming is the Minister of the Ministry of War, and he has a better understanding of these things, much better than Xuanjizi.

Guitai nodded slightly and said, "Get up."

Yu Ziming said: "Thank you, Holy Son."

Guitai looked at the other three and said, "What do you think?"

Li Chengdao raised his head and said: "What Long Chen did was just a child's opinion. When the rainy season comes, the water in the lake will indeed rise, but the construction of the navy will take a long time. When he is finished, the rainy season is over, and there is no threat."

Ghost Tai nodded slightly and said: "That's right, the construction of naval warships can't be completed in a few years."

Li Chengdao said again: "Besides, building warships by the lake is despising us."

"We can wait for his construction to be almost completed, and send an elite sneak attack to destroy all the warships. Long Chen's navy will never be able to complete it."

The ghost laughed and said: "It's still a smart dog slave, but it's different after being an emperor."

Li Chengdao is still the emperor of Daliang. It is wrong to say that he was the emperor before, but no one refuted it.

"Just send someone to watch it, let them build it."

The ghost felt that what Long Chen did was not a threat, so he ignored it.

At this time, Yan Xi said: "Holy Son, this servant requests to attack Xianhe City."

Guitai's face changed slightly, and he said, "Are you leading troops?"

Yan Xi immediately said: "What's so good about this slave, it's just that the city is running out of food and grass. If we continue to confront each other for a long time, I'm afraid our army will collapse without fighting."

The ghost said coldly: "Let the Ministry of Households collect food. There are so many people in Nanliang, how can there be no food?"

Yan Xi was speechless, so he had no choice but to worship: "The Holy Son is wise."

The ghost waved his hand, and everyone left the room.

After the person left, the ghost asked: "What is Long Chen doing in the mine?"

Feng Erniang replied: "I'm making iron cables. It is said that Long Chen is going to connect a hundred warships, and horses can run on them."

Guitai was about to ask why he was building iron cables, when he heard that he was connecting warships, Guitai smiled and said: "There are no ships, what is he connecting to?"

Feng Erniang said, "I'm just pretending to be smart."

The ghost got up and said: "Yan Xi said to attack, and I also want to attack, how can it be so easy."

Long Chen's cultivation has improved too much, Guitai can't handle it by himself, coupled with the female emperor Luezhen, Guitai dare not act rashly.

Li Chengdao was too disappointing, the empress had broken through the real realm, and he was actually stuck and unable to move.

"Let Li Chengdao practice quickly, don't look like a waste!"

Thinking of this, the ghost felt agitated in his heart.

Feng Erniang delivered the decree immediately.

...

Yanmen Pass.

Three men dressed as merchants entered the gate.

When they arrived at the Guannei military camp, the soldiers stopped the three of them and shouted: "The military camp is an important place, idlers stop!"

One of them took out a token, and when the soldier saw it, he let him go immediately.

These three people are Feng He, Gan Xin and Mo Lin.

They were ordered to look for traces of the ghost fetus' lair outside the Great Wall, but they have found nothing so far.

This trip went out for more than two months, and the things they had prepared were used up, so the three of them returned to Yanmenguan to replenish.

Hearing that Feng He was back, the guard immediately came to meet him.

After exchanging pleasantries, the three of Feng He returned to their room to rest.

It happened that Long Chen's letter also arrived.

After reading the letter, Feng He pointed on the map and said, "King Wu said that the man walked in this direction after he left Yanmen Pass, and counting the time when he left and returned, he is likely to be in this area."

Gan Xin smoked a dry cigarette, squinted his eyes and said, "We have been to this area, and we haven't found anything."

Mo Lin said: "Maybe we missed it, take a break, and let's go again."

Feng He said: "Take a rest first, this matter cannot be rushed."

Gan Xin and Mo Lin changed their attire, left the pass, and headed south to the Fengsha Building.

When they arrived at Fengsha Building, the two entered the room.

The new landlord met, and the two asked about the Central Plains.

People are in the northern border outside the Great Wall, and the news is cut off. They don't know what happened in the Central Plains.

After hearing the landlord's report, the two closed the door to drink tea and smoke.

"King Wu is so powerful, he actually seriously injured the ghost again."

Gan Xin was a little surprised.

In that confrontation in Xueyuan, they all saw that Long Chen was cheating, and Long Chen himself said that his cultivation was not as good as that of a ghost.

However, in the battle of Linhu City, Long Chen was seriously injured again, this is different.

Once is luck, twice is strength.

This shows that Long Chen is more powerful than ghost fetuses.

"Did King Wu improve his cultivation again?"

Mo Lin wondered if Long Chen had raised his cultivation again.

Gan Xin shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, it's really possible, but it's a pity we're not here."

If they were here, they would have the cheek to ask Long Chen for exercises.

"Tell me, where did Shen Wanjin go?"

Mo Lin talked about Shen Wanjin.

Shen Wanjin's sneak attack failed, and he disappeared after that. It is said that he disappeared.

In fact, the two of them were a little afraid of Shen Wanjin's revenge, after all they took away the property of Wanjinlou.

Gan Xin smoked a pipe and said, "Shen Wanjin failed in his mission, and he will probably die if he goes back. If I were him, I would leave the Central Plains."

Mo Lin drank his tea, nodded slightly and said, "Yes, go far away and go to a place where ghosts can't find you."

Gan Xin said: "He's been at the end of it. Fortunately, our Shengxue Peak has taken refuge in King Wu, otherwise we will die in Longxing Valley."

The two felt fortunate that they did not continue to follow Shen Wanjin.

Mo Lin nodded and said: "This is good fortune, each has its own destiny, each has its own luck."

After resting for a few days, Gan Xin, Mo Lin and Feng He continued to disguise themselves as businessmen and entered the northern grassland.
