A Cai's work The Emperor's Phoenix: The Godly Doctor and the Abandoned Concubine ... Volume 1 1785 The disaster came at the right time
If the Palace Master of the Hundred Ghosts Palace is really the descendant of the Ghost King, then the first person he will deal with is not the emperor of the four countries who split the previous dynasty, nor the descendant of King Fengli who destroyed the Hundred Ghosts Palace, but Lan Jingyang!
Lan Jingjing, a member of the royal family, is the descendant of the emperor's uncle, whom the Ghost King hates the most. The Hundred Ghosts Palace will never let go of the descendant of this enemy who caused the tragedy of the Ghost King's life.
"Lan Jingyang is in big trouble." Feng Qingchen gloated. Although Lan Jingyang only had one year to live, the sooner he died, the more satisfied she would be.
The Ninth Prince was more cautious. "We must not let our guard down until the very end. Perhaps someone is just using the name of the Hundred Ghosts Palace to cause chaos. The status of the Hundred Ghosts Palace in the martial arts world back then was unmatched. Even now, those martial artists dare not mention the Hundred Ghosts Palace easily."
"Don't worry about that. We just need to make a small test. If the Hundred Ghosts Palace is not the descendant of the Ghost King, then we will reveal this news to Lan Jingyang. I think Lan Jingyang will be very nervous." Whether it is true or false, they will not suffer any loss.
Feng Qingchen paused for a moment, and then continued: "Besides, even if Lan Jingyang doesn't touch the Hundred Ghosts Palace, those martial arts families will not let it go. We just need to quietly reveal a little information and let them fight each other."
"You're right, the Hundred Ghosts Palace appeared at the right time. Just mentioning the name is enough to make some people lose sleep." Even if they can't join forces, they will not become opponents at this stage.
"We need to discuss this matter carefully. From what I heard Nanling Jinfan talking to that strange man in white, it seems that this Gray Old Man has a very high status in the Hundred Ghosts Palace. If they find out that Gray Old Man has been captured by us and is not dead, they will definitely come to rescue him." Feng Qingchen has already begun to think about how to set up this plan without leaving any trace so that the people in the Hundred Ghosts Palace will not find out.
"Old Hui, come with us." This is also the reason why the Ninth Prince ordered the army to escort Nanling Jinfan and Ye Ye into the city. With Old Hui with them, the journey will never be peaceful.
"This way we will have more opportunities to get him to pay attention to Liancheng and Lan Jingyang." Some things cannot be said too directly, because being too direct will make people suspect that you have ulterior motives. Reveal a little bit of evidence and let the other party check and verify it personally. Only in this way can the results obtained make people feel satisfied.
"We don't need to do it. Someone will do it for us naturally." The Ninth Prince thought of the letter he intercepted some time ago. Deep in his eyes was a calculation that outsiders could not see...
The Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen brought very few guards with them this time. In order to escort Gray Old Man, Yuwen Yuanhua arranged a team of elite soldiers for the Ninth Prince.
These people are all Yuwen Yuanhua's direct confidants. This can be regarded as another form of Yuwen Yuanhua's surrender to the Ninth Prince. The Ninth Prince's acceptance of them also shows his trust in Yuwen Yuanhua.
Feng Qingchen and Sun Sixing have already packed up and handed over the work of the wounded camp. Even the old doctor can now complete the amputation surgery independently.
The night before departure, Xia Wan and Su Wenqing secretly came to the military camp, preparing to return to the imperial city with Feng Qingchen. At the same time, Xia Wan also brought news from the outside world.
In the army, in order to avoid leaking military information, no one except the Ninth Prince can contact the outside world, and even if they do, they are under military surveillance. Feng Qingchen is no exception. She has been staying in the army for this period of time and knows nothing about what is happening in the outside world.
Xia Wan first told Feng Qingchen about Yecheng's industry and what she had done in Yecheng during this period, and asked Feng Qingchen how to deal with Yecheng's industry. After reporting her own affairs, Xia Wan reported to Feng Qingchen the news she had received during this period.
"The batch of food that Nanling Jinfan brought was provided by the third son of the Cui family. They had had a brief contact before."
"The battle for the head of the Cui family is becoming clearer. If nothing unexpected happens, the Sixteenth Young Master will be the next head of the Cui family. Lord Fu has frequent contacts with the Third Young Master Cui, and the details need further investigation."
"Xuan Yue Palace seems to be looking for something. It has been secretly suppressing Tian Qiong Fort for some time. Tian Qiong Fort is in a worrying situation, and its power has been reduced to one-third of its original strength. The Lord of Ling Tian Fort received a letter from Lian Cheng not long ago, and it seems that he intends to surrender."
…
These pieces of news were seriously delayed. Feng Qingchen had learned about them from the Ninth Prince before, otherwise they would not have been able to capture Nanling Jinfan so easily. You must know that Nanling Jinfan's retreat was arranged by the Third Master Cui.
As for the matter of Tianqiong Castle, Feng Qingchen was not surprised at all. Ling Tian had been involved with Lan Jingyang before, and now both of them were in a bad situation, so it was not surprising that they would join forces.
"Miss Qingge has been found. Tong Jue secretly sent her to Xiling and arranged for someone to take care of Miss Qingge. Tong Jue asked the young lady whether she should tell General Zhi the news?" Xia Wan narrated in a serious manner, at a moderate pace, just enough for Feng Qingchen to digest.
She couldn't kill Feng Lizhi, so she could only put his mind at ease. Feng Qingchen thought for a moment and nodded: "Tell him. From now on, just pretend that Feng Liqingge doesn't exist and cut off all contact with Feng Liqingge."
"Yes." Xia Wan didn't ask any more questions and didn't think about why. She just needed to follow orders.
"Tong Yao sent a message that Taicheng secretly sent more troops to the Shandong border, and it seems that they are planning to attack Shandong."
"Chu City has raised 150,000 troops and a year's worth of food and fodder, but there is no sign of sending out troops for the time being."
"Liancheng is in turmoil, the Lord of Liancheng abdicates, and the Young Lord Jingyang takes over."
…
"Thirteen thousand people froze to death in Beiling last winter. We are running low on food and grass, so we are borrowing food from other countries."
"Nanling's spies have reported that there have been unusual movements in the Nanling royal family, but the details are unknown. The Nanling Emperor has kept it a secret, and their eldest prince, Nanling Jinxing, is also investigating the matter, but to no avail."
"After being reprimanded, Princess Xiling has been staying indoors. Someone secretly monitoring her reported that the princess has not given up and is trying to persuade those who support her to secretly snatch Master Fengjin away. At the same time, she is lobbying Mr. Yinli to support Master Fengjin and Master Fengjin will recognize Mr. Yinli as his father."
One by one, one by one, they all seem to be trivial matters, but there is a connection behind each one, such as Taicheng's move to increase troops in Shandong. If someone had not promised Taicheng something, or secretly helped Taicheng, how could Taicheng provoke Dongling.
You know, Taicheng was badly hurt after being attacked by the Ninth Prince and Jinxing last time. Neither the military force nor the financial resources can support Taicheng to send troops.
"Let Tong Yao keep a close eye on Taicheng. She can take preemptive action when necessary. Let Tong Yao do it without any reservations. I'm here no matter what happens." Feng Qingchen's words undoubtedly told Tong Yao that she would not be afraid even if the secret of the Fengli clan was exposed.
"Yes." Xia Wan was very excited, and her voice was more than twice as loud as usual.
With a responsible and capable master, what else do they have to fear? What else do they have to worry about? If they don't do it, they would be unworthy of Feng Qingchen's words.
Xia Wan took several breaths to calm her voice. After reporting the movements of the other cities, Xia Wan handed the sealed letter box to Feng Qingchen: "Miss, your letter."
These letters represent encrypted information. No one except Feng Qingchen can read them. Even if they are opened, they cannot see the contents...
