Upon hearing that Li Huan had a brilliant plan, Chen Jinnan's face lit up with joy.
"What brilliant plan is it?"
Li Huan said, "I first sent Duolong to storm into the Prince of Pingxi's residence and clash with Wu Sangui, and then..."
Li Huan whispered a few words in Chen Jinnan's ear.
After hearing this, Chen Jinnan burst into laughter.
"Brilliant plan! Brilliant plan! Li Huan, you're a genius! Hahaha..."
Everyone stared at Li Huan with curiosity in their eyes.
Li Huan certainly couldn't reveal this brilliant plan in public.
After all, there might be traitors within the Heaven and Earth Society.
Li Huan reminded him, "Chief, you must keep your mouth shut and keep my plan a secret!"
Chen Jinnan patted Li Huan on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I will never leak it!"
Li Huan said, "If this plan fails, I'll think of other ideas to help the leader and the brothers infiltrate the Prince of Pingxi's mansion and assassinate Wu Sangui!"
Chen Jinnan said, "Good! Go ahead and do it, I will fully support you!"
Li Huan suddenly asked, "Chief, you promised me that once I eliminated Ao Bai and made a great contribution, you would become sworn brothers with me."
Chen Jinnan laughed and said, "No rush, no rush. After we eliminate Wu Sangui, I'll burn paper money with you and become sworn brothers!"
Li Huan cursed inwardly, but said aloud, "Okay, okay, I'll try my best to eliminate Wu Sangui as soon as possible!"
He had intended to tell Chen Jinnan about the one-armed nun's arrangement for Ake to become an undercover agent, but he felt it was inappropriate and held back.
...
Return to the inn.
Li Huan led Long'er to meet Princess Jianning.
Princess Jianning was overjoyed, thinking that Long'er had saved Li Huan, and prepared to reward Long'er handsomely.
Li Huan did not hide anything and recounted how Wu Sangui sent Wu Yingxiong and Feng Xifan to attack the Shenlong Sect.
Princess Jianning was consumed by jealousy upon hearing this.
"You...you and Long'er have merged, wouldn't that mean you've become husband and wife?"
Li Huan chuckled: "There's one more thing I must tell you: the fake Empress Dowager was actually Long'er in disguise!"
"What?" Princess Jianning was dumbfounded.
Long'er waved her folding fan and said in the tone of the fake Empress Dowager, "Jianning, it's one thing for you to be naughty as usual, but today you actually fooled around with a little eunuch in the room. What kind of behavior is this?"
Upon hearing this, Princess Jianning trembled in fright and instinctively hid behind Li Huan.
Li Huan comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Long'er is now my woman, and she will no longer work for Wu Sangui!"
Princess Jianning said, "This woman is very cunning. I suspect she is deliberately acting to deceive you."
Li Huan said, "What a load of rubbish! Long'er transferred eighty percent of his power to me!"
Princess Jianning was overjoyed: "So, you've already become a martial arts master?"
Li Huan said, "That's right, my skills are now quite advanced."
Princess Jianning's eyes darted around a few times, and she smiled subtly.
"I don't believe you. I want to test your skills for myself. Come with me into the room."
Li Huan understood Princess Jianning's intentions.
"Princess, it's not even dark yet, and you want to test my martial arts? Isn't that a bit too hasty?"
Princess Jianning said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for so many days, how could I not be worried?"
Long'er understood the meaning behind their conversation and said, "Huan-ge, you and the princess can chat for a while, I'm going out shopping."
Li Huan hurriedly said, "Stop chatting! We have important business to attend to! Call Duolong and Wei Xiaobao in!"
Long'er immediately went to call Duolong and Wei Xiaobao.
Li Huan originally planned to send Duolong to deal with Wu Sangui.
Just to be on the safe side, it was decided on the spot that Wei Xiaobao and Duolong would work together to cause trouble for Wu Sangui at the Prince of Pingxi's mansion.
Soon, Duolong and Wei Xiaobao arrived.
Li Huan said, "Master Duo, you are both wise and brave, and I admire you greatly. Now there is a very important task for you to lead Wei Xiaobao to carry out!"
Duolong beamed with joy: "Lord Li, please give your orders. I will do my utmost without hesitation!"
Li Huan lied, "I am here on the Emperor's orders to escort the princess to the Prince of Pingxi's residence. On the surface, it is to protect the princess, but in fact, the Emperor has given me a secret mission."
"This mission is to infiltrate the Heaven and Earth Society, get acquainted with their leader, and thus gain knowledge of the society's situation!"
Duolong laughed and said, "Lord Li is the Emperor's top-notch undercover agent. No one but Lord Li is capable of infiltrating the Heaven and Earth Society. What can I do to help Lord Li?"
Li Huan said, "You first impersonate a member of the Heaven and Earth Society and go to one of their branches to scout things out!"
Upon hearing this, a look of horror flashed in Duolong's eyes.
Li Huan asked, "What's wrong? Are you scared?"
Duolong puffed out his chest and said loudly, "Being able to venture into the lion's den and investigate the situation of the Heaven and Earth Society is something I've always dreamed of!"
Holy crap, that's some serious showing off.
Li Huan said, "I know that going to the Heaven and Earth Society to gather information is very dangerous. To ensure your safety, I'm sending Wei Xiaobao to accompany you!"
Wei Xiaobao suppressed a laugh: "Please rest assured, Lord Li, I will definitely complete the mission perfectly!"
Li Huan said, "In order to dispel the suspicions of the Heaven and Earth Society, I will write a letter on your backs so that the people of the Heaven and Earth Society can see it."
Doron asked, "Why write it on the back instead of on paper?"
Li Huan said, "The contents are confidential, not even you two can see them, so they have to be written on the back!"
Duolong said, "Lord Li's considerations are thorough; I admire them!"
Wei Xiaobao knew this was Li Huan's scheme, so he cooperated and said, "Hurry up and write it, I can't wait to infiltrate the Heaven and Earth Society's branch!"
Li Huan immediately instructed Long'er to bring pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.
"Duolong, Xiaobao, you two take off your shirts!"
Duolong and Wei Xiaobao complied.
Li Huan picked up his brush and wrote four large characters on the backs of both Duolong and Wei Xiaobao.
Doron laughed and said, "Isn't this letter too short?"
Li Huan said, "It's concise and to the point; the people of the Heaven and Earth Society will understand it at a glance!"
Although Duolong could read, he could not see the writing on his own back or Wei Xiaobao's back.
Wei Xiaobao, however, was illiterate.
Doron suddenly asked, "Lord Li, I remember you couldn't read. How come you can write now?"
Li Huan said in a serious tone, "I have obtained eighty percent of Long'er's power, so it's normal that I have learned to write now, isn't it?"
Duolong nodded: "That makes sense, that makes sense!"
Li Huan instructed, "Remember, after you two enter the Heaven and Earth Society's branch, you will encounter a middle-aged man dressed in imperial court robes. He may be the Heaven and Earth Society's Grand Master!"
Duolong shuddered a few times: "Chen Jinnan! He...he wouldn't have seen through my relationship with Steward Wei, would he?"
Li Huan said, "As long as you and Wei Xiaobao keep shouting out the street code, the people of the Heaven and Earth Society won't suspect you two!"
Duolong hurriedly asked, "What's the secret code?"
Li Huan declared, "Overthrow the Qing and restore the Ming!"
"Damn!" Doron laughed. "This secret code is too simple!"
Li Huan said, "Don't be fooled by the simple code; most people wouldn't dare to say it!"
Doron chuckled: "Who would dare to spread such treasonous words?"
Li Huan said, "There's no time to lose, you two get moving!"
