"Long'er, you're back. How are you living outside?" In his study, Zhu Yuanzhang was naturally happy when he saw his son whom he hadn't seen for five years. He didn't express any dissatisfaction with Long Fei's failure at all. He first asked
What was more important was Long Fei's situation in the Tianxuan Empire. In order to reduce the risk of Long Fei being exposed, Zhu Yuanzhang did not inquire about Long Fei's information for five years. This was also done at Long Fei's request.
"Fortunately, I have made a lot of friends, all of whom are world leaders. How is it okay for my father to have so many over the years?" Long Fei was just like he was five years ago, without too much politeness, he sat down directly and said sincerely
.
"Very good, very tired." Zhu Yuanzhang summarized his life in the past five years in one sentence. This is also the life of an emperor, the life of an emperor in the peaceful and prosperous times. But then Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile, "The people Long Er knows are indeed
The world's best, such as Wen Feng."
"Yes, he is a good opponent, and he is also a good brother." Long Fei knew that after he was exposed, Zhu Yuanzhang must have thoroughly investigated his life in the past five years, so he did not say too much about his life in the past five years.
In life, he did not talk about the grievances between himself and Wen Feng.
"Yes, he is a good brother, at least much better than your brothers. Long'er, I'm tired. When will you come back to help me?" Zhu Yuanzhang thought of his other sons and said to Long Fei in despair.
"I really want to sit on my father's throne, but I don't want to deal with my brothers. You must know that many empires decline due to internal fighting. I don't want the Southern Qin Empire to lose in my hands." Thinking of treating myself as the biggest
Regarding the enemy's brothers, Long Fei also smiled bitterly. It was easy to defeat them, but after defeating them, killing them and imprisoning them was not what he wanted. More importantly, it would cause the empire to lose 30% of its strength.
, because in order to defeat them, we must deal with the forces that are dependent on them.
"So you want to take charge of the military and take over my position naturally." Zhu Yuanzhang had a venomous eye, and he could see Long Fei's intentions at a glance.
"If there is a possibility, I just want to be a wanderer or the patron saint of the Southern Qin Empire." Long Fei has been completely disappointed with the royal family. Wen Feng said it right. Once you enter the marquis family, you will be as deep as the sea, and you will love the emperor's family the most.
"Just like Wen Feng." Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a chuckle.[
"This has something to do with Wen Feng. Father, how many times have you gone abroad to the palace over the years? How many friends have you had? How many times have you spoken to your heart?" Sensing Zhu Yuanzhang's strong murderous intention towards Wen Feng, Long Fei said hurriedly.
"Yes, the emperor is just the most noble prisoner in the world. While gaining power, he also lost almost everything." Long Fei's words touched the weakness deep in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, and the sad feeling spread in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, but
He quickly reacted, looked at Long Fei with a chuckle, and scolded, "You kid will also play tricks on me. Before, I was lucky to have a son who is the best in the world, but now it seems I was wrong."
"People like Wen Feng shouldn't die without knowing why. His opponent is me." Seeing that he had backfired, Long Fei said seriously.
"Don't worry, I won't touch Wen Feng until you decide the winner or loser." Seeing that Long Fei had the fighting spirit, Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile, but he did not guarantee that he would not kill Wen Feng and declared victory or defeat.
Before, that is to say, no matter whether Long Fei won or lost, Zhu Yuanzhang would not let Wen Feng live.
Long Fei didn't want to dwell on this issue anymore, so he asked instead: "How has the imperial capital been in these years?"
"It's not very good. Those brothers of yours disappoint me very much. They have almost become bargaining chips for several big families to compete and be used." As the emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang also felt a little helpless at this time. Sometimes,
He really regretted why he gave birth to such a son.
"I don't have to worry about these things anymore. I came back this time to use my last strength." Long Fei was also very helpless towards his brother, but he was not a lover.
"Isn't it too early to use your last strength?" After hearing Long Fei's last words, Zhu Yuanzhang looked like an emperor should be, resolute, majestic, with no expression of joy or anger, and said slowly.
"I had the same idea as my father before, but the previous battles let me know that the Tianxuan Empire already knew our intentions, or that the troops we invested before were too few." Long Fei said.
"Too little. Does Long Er mean to conceal it?" Zhu Yuanzhang said.
"No, it should be said that the Tianxuan Empire knew all our plans from the beginning. The Huwei Legion appeared in Tianjian City, the garrison in Jicheng and Qicheng, and the deployment in other places. Everything seemed so targeted.
, I believe all this is not a coincidence." Long Fei stated his suspicions, and then looked at Zhu Yuanzhang quietly.
"Long'er means that there are spies from the Tianxuan Empire in our country, spies with high positions." At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang exuded a cold aura. Only a few people knew about this plan, even the Northern Qi Empire, which was an ally.
I don’t know my specific plans either.
"I don't know these things. I only know that our plan has failed. What we have to do now is to show enough strength and win bargaining chips." Long Fei is not blindly confident. He understands that in the eyes of politicians, he is really
is just a child.
"Not necessarily, many things are not what Long Er imagined. Even if we lose, there will be no danger of destroying the country." I don't know why, Zhu Yuanzhang said this, and then patted Long Fei on the shoulder to encourage him.
He said, "What Long Er has to do now is to take control of the military as soon as possible. Tomorrow I will hand over those people to your command. As for some people, I will tell them to shut up."
Long Fei didn't know where Zhu Yuanzhang's confidence came from, and why he didn't tell him the truth. But Long Fei knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would not harm him. As for why he didn't let himself know, sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing. As for letting some people know
Shut up, it should be Zhu Yuanzhang who wants to take charge of the army and do a big purge.[
"I understand, leave the matters on the battlefield to me. I'm going to see my mother now." Long Fei stood up, saluted Zhu Yuanzhang and thought about leaving.
"No need to go, your mother passed away two years ago." At this time, a thunderbolt sounded in Long Fei's ears.
"What's going on?" Long Fei asked in silence.
"Suicide." Zhu Yuanzhang seemed not to want to say more.
"Why?" Long Fei continued to ask.
"Don't ask any more questions. I will tell you the truth after the war is over." Even when faced with Long Fei's questioning, Zhu Yuanzhang did not tell the truth, but he gave Long Fei a promise.
"Is this a level that I shouldn't be exposed to? Don't worry, one day I will show the true face of these beasts with human faces in front of the world." Long Fei had anticipated something from Zhu Yuanzhang's answer, and said with a stern face.
Looking at this smart son, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled bitterly in his heart. Maybe he shouldn't have spoken. How could you be the opponent of those wily guys now?
The day after Long Fei returned to the imperial capital, many people wanted to attack Long Fei. He had been missing for five years and no one knew what he was doing. However, after Long Fei's identity was discovered by Wen Feng, what happened to Long Fei
Naturally, it reached the ears of these people. For their own benefit, many people did not want Long Fei to become the emperor of the Southern Qin Empire. Isn't now an excellent opportunity?
But what surprised them was that Zhu Yuanzhang directly appointed Long Fei as the marshal of the Feilong Group Army before everyone launched an attack. Except for a limited number of people in the Feilong Group Army, no one knew at all. Could it be that His Majesty wanted to imitate the Tianxuan Empire and temporarily form an army?
But was it too late? While everyone was still wondering, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly launched an attack, and evidence of the crimes of many big families was brought out, even several princes of the empire were not spared.
By this time, everyone had understood. His Majesty wanted everyone to know that Prince Long Fei was the future emperor of the empire.
Compared to the changes in the Southern Qin Empire, the Northern Qi Empire was in a state of joy. Since the war began, the Northern Qi Empire had won successive victories. Up to now, it had captured dozens of small cities in the Tianxuan Empire, and the situation on the battlefield was excellent.
The emperor of the Northern Qi Empire even declared that he would invade the imperial capital of the Tianxuan Empire within three years. Faced with such a declaration, Liu Dingguo just laughed it off because he knew that the Northern Qi Empire was deliberately irritating him so that he could see his trump card.
In other words, the successive victories on the battlefield have made the Northern Qi Empire feel guilty. Now they can only ignore the Northern Qi Empire and they dare not act rashly.
"Marshal, we haven't contacted Sima Qing so far." Shi Zhiqiang reported seriously. The hall was filled with generals from the Huwei Group Army, except of course Sima Qing's guerrilla army.
"No need to look for it. This guy might give us a big surprise. Then our meeting will officially begin." Wen Feng looked at the people in the hall. What made Wen Feng feel guilty was that he didn't even know most of them.
know.
"Marshal, are we going to the battlefield in the south?" asked a general whom Wen Feng didn't recognize.
"No, on the contrary, it feels to me that the war in the north has just begun. The next thing we need to do is recruit troops to cope with the coming war." Wen Feng said indifferently, but secretly cursed Liu Dingguo for taking so long.
He hadn't even told himself about the Tianxuan Empire's deployment. Could it be that he really wanted to see him and the Royal Guards fight to the death?
Of course things were not what Wen Feng thought. Uncle Long had arrived at Tianjian City a long time ago. He was just paying attention to Wen Feng secretly, but no one noticed.
Wen Feng's meeting was very simple. He just explained one point. The Huwei Group Army only recruits soldiers with intermediate combat level and above, even if it never recruits less than 500,000 soldiers.
Such an order puzzled all the generals, but Wen Feng did not explain it and simply said: "Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed and pardoned." He told everyone to shut up.
