The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

Chapter 174 Lin Xiaoxiang plots, three dynasties unite

"Come in and report!"

While eating, Ye Feng spoke slowly towards the direction of the central courtyard.

Then he saw Shen Lian wearing the robe of the Jinyiwei and holding an embroidered spring sword. He also saw Zhao Qiuyan sitting in the yard and eating with him, which was not surprising.

"I am Shen Lian, the deputy commander of the Jinyiwei, and I am here to see Your Majesty."

He came behind Ye Feng and quickly bowed to Zhao Qiuyan.

"No need to be polite!"

Zhao Qiuyan downplayed it. She was not interested in state affairs to begin with. She continued to eat her meal with relish and was very satisfied.

"Whose people are these ghost-faced men?"

Ye Feng had taken the initiative to go to prison before and forced Wen Baijun to jump out. After he killed Wen Baijun, he ordered Shen Lian to investigate the identities and origins of those ghost-faced men, but in the end, nothing was found.

"Master, these ghost-faced people act very cautiously. They don't easily come into contact with other people. I guess the master was fighting outside Jinling City some time ago, so they let down their guard a little."

"I followed the master's instructions and secretly sent people to watch Li Linpu's mansion. As expected, we found clues. There was a middle-aged man who we thought was just Li Linpu's chef. He went in and out of the prime minister's mansion two or three times a day."

"Later, after I arranged for someone to follow him, we discovered that after this person left the mansion, he did not go to the vegetable market or anywhere else. Instead, he walked towards the west of Jinling City. He would walk back and forth every time with a serious look on his face, and it was obvious that he was afraid of being followed."

"If he is really a chef, there is no need for him to be sneaky. We, the Jinyiwei, are now in Jinling City, secretly recruiting a group of ordinary people."

"They have no fluctuations in their cultivation. They walk on the street. Even if they follow each other, he will not be suspicious. After many investigations and visits."

"It was found in a dilapidated courtyard in the west near the west city gate. During the day, there was no movement, but at midnight, there would be figures walking around one after another, and they all wore ghost masks. As a result, people nearby thought that there was a ghost in the house, and over time they dared not approach it."

Shen Lian reported to Ye Feng in detail. He was very careful and his investigation was very clear.

Even Ye Feng was a little surprised.

Li Linpu is really cautious when doing things.

"There's no need to alert them for now. First, go investigate and find out how many ghost-faced people there are and why they are able to gather together."

Ye Feng knew very well in his heart that with Li Linpu's cautious character, even if these ghost-faced men were arrested, he would probably not be able to find any real evidence of Li Linpu's guilt.

"I have secretly arranged personnel to tentatively approach this group of ghost-faced men. As long as we let him blend in with them, we will be able to obtain more information." Shen Lian said.

"Yes! Not bad!" Ye Feng nodded affirmatively to Shen Lian and said, "You are in full control of the Jinyiwei. If you encounter something that you cannot solve, report to me. If there is not enough money, go to Lord Hai and ask him to allocate it."

"As ordered, I will resign!"

Shen Lian bowed and walked out of Qingya Pavilion.

"Hey!"

Yan Nishang finished her meal and returned to her room. Zhao Qiuyan also finished her meal and returned to the palace to practice. Only Ye Feng was left, still sitting at the table. Ye Feng sighed deeply and cleaned up the table in front of him.

One is a land immortal, and the other is the current emperor. He seems to dare to provoke both, but also seems to not want to provoke either, so he can only do more himself.

Besides, let alone cooking, even if these two people just wash the dishes, it is estimated that if only one or two tenths of the dishes are left intact after a wash, it would be good enough.

After packing up everything, he set off. He had been back in Jinling City for almost ten days and had been very busy. He had not found time to visit Murong Wan'er. Thinking of her charming figure, he was really intoxicated. He came to the middle courtyard and said, "Dashan, Lao Huang, let's go out for a walk."

When the two heard Ye Feng's words, they hurried over.

"Big Brother (Master)."

……

The Imperial Palace of the Great Wei, upper study.

Lin Xiaoxiang frowned. Ever since Dongyun City was taken away by Ye Feng, this matter has been a thorn in her throat. She has been thinking about how to take back Dongyun City all the time.

She ordered the ministers to discuss in the morning court, but no reasonable plan could be found. She knew very well that if she did not take action this time, it would be fine, but if she did, she had to take back Dongyun City.

Otherwise, if it was like the Tianyun City of the Great Jin Dynasty, which was taken away by Ye Feng, Sima Cuo led an army of 100,000 and claimed to recapture Tianyun City within three days.

Unexpectedly, after almost two months, Tianyun City was still safe and sound, but Sima Cuo's 100,000-strong army suffered heavy losses and enormous consumption.

"Greetings to Your Majesty!"

After a while, two voices were heard outside the study. They were Prime Minister Ouyang Si and Minister of War Xun Zhan.

"come in!"

Lin Xiaoxiang put down the memorial in his hand, and when he saw the two people entering the study, he said, "No need to be polite, my two lords. The main purpose of inviting you two here is to discuss how we can take back Dongyun City and avenge our previous humiliation."

Xun Zhan's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he said, "Your Majesty, according to the news I received, the governor of Yanyun County, Chang Sunji, has made drastic reforms, and in a short period of time, Yanyun County has been completely transformed. The most important thing is that their army guarding the city seems to have a super crossbow that can shoot nine arrows at the same time. It is so powerful that it can be called a city defense artifact. In Tianyun City, Sima Cuo's 100,000 troops suffered setbacks and heavy losses, all thanks to this crossbow. I suggest that given our current situation, it is not appropriate to send troops to the expedition."

Xun Zhan knew very well that fighting a war was all about morale. With Ye Feng sweeping away the Five Tiger Generals Xin Daorong in the Eighteen Cities of Smoke and Cloud, the morale of the Wei Dynasty had been low in recent times, so it was not a good time to go on an expedition now.

"What do you think, Prime Minister?"

Lin Xiaoxiang looked at Ouyang Si and continued to ask.

"I have an idea. If they want to attack the Song Dynasty, it may not be just our Wei Dynasty." Ouyang Si, with his full head of white hair, squeezed his wrinkled face together and said coldly: "We might as well send envoys to invite the Jin Dynasty and the Western Shu Dynasty to form an alliance and attack the Song Dynasty together."

"Given the current dilemma of the Jin Dynasty attacking Tianyun City, Sima Zhao will definitely not refuse if we propose cooperation to deal with the Song Dynasty."

"As for the Western Shu Dynasty, I heard that they have been restless recently. You know, Ying County was the territory of the Western Shu Dynasty a hundred years ago, so they naturally want to take it back."

Ouyang Si knew very well that if he wanted to quickly recapture Dongyun City, he would have to attack at the same time, making it impossible for the Song Dynasty to cope with it, which would naturally reveal its flaws.

"I think this is a good idea. The Prime Minister will be fully responsible. Lord Xun, mobilize the troops and horses and be ready to go at any time."

Lin Xiaoxiang agreed with Ouyang Si's idea. This was the ability that Ye Feng had taught her before. Since she couldn't defeat the opponent alone, she could only form an alliance to deal with the same enemy together.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty! I will go to the negotiation in person this time." Ouyang Si bowed.
