"In three years, we will defeat the Daling Dynasty."
The Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty repeated these words, and then burst out laughing: "Okay, okay! You are worthy of being the first genius of my Great Zhou Dynasty. Since you have such lofty ideals, how can I not be as good as you wish?"
"Let's do this. Not only will I reward you with a Chen Liu bodyguard, but I will also allow you to choose your subordinates at will within the entire royal city."
"No matter how many people you want to choose, as long as you can convince them to join you in defeating the Daling Dynasty, then they will be your generals and will join you in conquering Daling."
"This is a privilege bestowed upon you by me. I hope Lin Aiqing will not disappoint my high expectations."
The Emperor of Zhou laughed and said.
The civil and military officials in the court could not help but be shocked. They did not expect that the king would give Lin Qi such a privilege.
But then again, this privilege seems powerful, but in fact it is useless.
You Lin Qi, a commoner, even if the king favors you and makes you a so-called general touting, you have no real power at all, and you have to travel long distances to the border to lead the army in war, which is not only tiring but also dangerous.
Apart from desperate people like Chen Liu, who else is willing to die with you?
Is the royal city not safe enough, or is the aura of the royal city not sufficient?
In fact, even a fool knows that he is more comfortable in the royal city and is unwilling to move even to death.
Therefore, the privilege given by the king is just nice to hear. An empty talk made Lin Qi burst into tears of gratitude. He is worthy of being a king.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lin Qi hurriedly saluted with Chen Qiao, pretending to be grateful.
"Okay, we are tired, let's disperse. Manager Liu will tell you what to do next."
The Emperor of Zhou slowly lay down on the bed and returned to his previous tired appearance.
The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty immediately responded: "Yes! Your Majesty may live long and we will retire!"
As the voice fell, Lin Qi saw a curtain falling in front of Emperor Zhou's bed, blocking everyone's view.
Then Manager Liu's sharp voice sounded: "Others, please retreat, General Tuoling and General Poling stay."
"Lin Qi, I'm leaving first. You should be careful. It's not convenient in the palace. If you want to find me, just send me a message and I will find an opportunity to go to your general's mansion to find you."
Zhou Jiangxue said and gave Lin Qi a jade talisman.
Lin Qi took it and nodded, saying, "Okay, take care of yourself too."
After Zhou Jiangxue, Chen Qiao and others left one after another, Manager Liu took out two pale golden tokens.
I saw him squeezing his sword fingers, spiritual power spitting out from his fingertips, and then swishing and swissing writing on the token.
After a moment, he handed the two tokens to Lin Qi and Chen Tianjiao and said: "Two generals, you only need to hold these two tokens to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to get a house and courtyard, or you can find a place by yourself.
Build your general's mansion. I wish the two generals a bright future, conquer Daling as soon as possible, and marry the third princess! Haha."
Lin Qi took the token and found that Manager Liu was holding the edge of the token with his fingers and not letting go, with a vague smile on his face.
At this time, he saw Chen Tianjiao giving a ring and said: "Thank you for your kind words, father-in-law. I hope your father-in-law will accept this small gift."
Lin Qi's mental power swept away, and he immediately discovered that there were various treasures in the ring. Although they were not treasures of heaven and earth, they were just some decorations, which did not help in cultivation, but they were all precious treasures with great value.
Liancheng.
Lin Qi immediately followed suit and threw the useless garbage in his system space into a ring, and then sent it to Manager Liu.
"It's a small gift, please accept it with my father-in-law's smile."
"Hahaha, the two generals are indeed heroes among men. Okay, I won't waste the time of the two generals."
Manager Liu said with a smile, raised his hand to see the guest off, and then turned around to leave. It could be said that he had turned his face to the extreme and even Lin Qi and Chen Tianjiao didn't even look at the things once they got them.
However, this man actually didn't even give Chen Tianjiao, the prime minister's son, face, so he seemed to be deeply favored by Zhou Hong.
"snort!"
Chen Tianjiao glanced at Lin Qi coldly, then flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.
Lin Qi ignored him and followed him out of the hall.
As soon as he walked out of the hall and felt the warm sunshine shining down, he felt a little more comfortable.
"General!"
Chen Liu, who had been waiting at the side of the hall, knelt down on the ground, greeted Lin Qi respectfully, and said: "I will never repay the general's life-saving grace, but I will die to repay it. I am willing to give my soul and become the general's slave."
"Brother Chen Liu, why are you like this?"
Lin Qi hurriedly helped Chen Liu up and said: "I have never thanked Brother Chen Liu for everything before. Now I am just reciprocating the favor. Please get up quickly. Let's go to Brother Chen Liu's house now to tell Ning the good news."
Brother."
"well!"
Chen Liu narrowly escaped death, with only excitement in his mind. He listened to whatever Lin Qi said without any objection.
Soon, Lin Qi brought Chen Liu and Dongfang Xue to Chen Liu's house and met Ning Changqiang.
When Ning Changqiang heard that Lin Qi had issued a military order to break through the Daling Dynasty within three years, he was so shocked that he stood on the spot. His heart almost stopped and his breathing was suffocated.
"You, you - ugh!"
After a long while, Ning Changqiang sighed and said: "Forget it, the matter has come to this, we can only do our best to obey fate. At least Lao Chen survived, and it is not impossible in three years, haha."
He laughed when he said it later, obviously thinking that conquering Daling in three years was nonsense.
Lin Qi also smiled and said: "If nothing else, at least I have a general's mansion now. But I don't know much about the royal city, so I need two brothers to help me analyze where to build a general's mansion. By the way,
I want to set up the formation in the general's mansion, so the place I choose must be open enough."
"I know a place."
Chen Liu immediately stood up and said: "General Lin, I will take you to circle the place first, and then we will use your general order to ask the Ministry of Household Registration to register."
Lin Qi nodded: "Then let's go without further ado."
Ning Changqiang also stood up: "I'll go with you too. Now that Old Chen doesn't have to die, there won't be any danger here. By the way, who is this?"
He looked at Dongfang Xue in surprise, wondering how this little girl appeared and why she followed Lin Qi closely without saying a word.
Lin Qi didn't explain too much, and said casually: "She is the pet that the king gave me from the Dagu Dynasty Song and Dance Troupe. She is a little shy and doesn't speak, so don't pay attention to her. Let's go."
"good."
Ning Changqiang asked no more questions.
Soon, Chen Liu took Lin Qi to an open plateau and said, "This is suitable for setting up formations, but it's a bit remote."
"It doesn't matter."
Lynch walked around and observed the surrounding terrain, and was very satisfied with it.
As soon as he entered the royal city before, he felt that this was not a simple city, but a real country. Now that he saw this plain, he knew that he was right.
The Royal City is said to be a city, but with a radius of tens of millions of miles, it is also divided into prosperous areas and barren areas. The deeper you go into remote places, there are all kinds of complex terrain.
Although the spiritual energy here is not as abundant as that near the palace, first of all, the good places near the palace are occupied by people, and secondly, it is too close to the palace, so anything that happens casually cannot escape the eyes of others.
And here, although the spiritual energy is relatively poor, as long as you set up the spirit gathering array and arrange various formations, the place can be as strong as a copper wall, which can be attacked and defended, and can also block the sight of others with malicious intentions.
In this way, wouldn't it be nice to use it as your base in the royal city?
"Brother Chen Liu, I would like to trouble you again to go to the Ministry of Household Affairs and call someone to register the land deed here."
As Lynch spoke, he threw out various formation flags and began to arrange the formation.
"Yes, General!"
Chen Liu immediately followed the order and took action, leaving Lin Qi's sight in the blink of an eye.
Ning Changqiang saw Lin Qi starting to arrange the formation step by step. He couldn't help himself, so he said: "Brother Lin Qi, as a general touting, it is unreasonable that you don't have any soldiers and horses around you. I will go to Tian
Eagle King, how about preparing some soldiers, horses and weapons for you?"
"Then thank you so much, Brother Ning."
Lin Qi was overjoyed and said: "By the way, the king has given me a privilege, allowing me to choose my subordinates at will. As long as they are willing to obey me, they can be my subordinates. How about this, Brother Ning, look where there are death row prisoners and so on.
Those who are desperate, help me spread the word and tell them that they can come to me as my subordinates, and give them a chance to make meritorious deeds."
Ning Changqiang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "This is a good idea, thank you for thinking of it. Then I will go!"
Whoosh!
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared.
Seeing Ning Changqiang and Chen Liu both leaving, Lin Qi immediately fired out the power of his soul. Not finding anyone prying, he pulled Dongfang Xue into the formation he had just set up, and finally had the chance to ask his doubts.
"What's going on? Why did you go to the Dagu Dynasty and join the song and dance troupe? What about that Dongfang Lanxin? He brought you to the Dongfang Family and treated you like this?"
Lynch asked questions in rapid succession.
Dongfang Xue's eyes suddenly turned red, and tears immediately filled her eyes: "Young Master..."
