Is he gone?"

Standing on the city tower, facing the sunlight from the sky on the side, Dongfang Shuo's eyes looked at the army that was encamped more than 20 miles outside the city.

The reason why he opened his mouth to ask such a question was because he sensed that Ji Zhaoning had come to the city tower and was walking towards him.

"It's gone. ”

After standing beside him, Ji Zhaoning said lightly.

Dongfang Shuo nodded, and a shallow smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "There are two biggest problems in the life of the second prince. One, he is too loyal, which is why he will preempt the rebels and an infantry into the city. The other is too cautious, which is why he will set up camp twenty miles away to show his loyalty, but unfortunately in the eyes of everyone in the imperial city now, he is waiting for the third prince to join forces with him. ”

There was no one around here, so Dongfang Shuo was able to confide such words so confidently.

And Ji Zhaoning bowed slightly: "As long as the second prince and the fourth prince who led the troops to the city will be killed, then the third prince who is late can be convicted." ”

"Did Zhang Yi say it, or did you guess it?"

Dongfang Shuo asked.

"If someone else needs to tell me about this, then I'm too stupid. Ji Zhaoning didn't seem to smile, but showed a little feigned anger.

And Dongfang Shuo smiled and said, "That's right." ”

But then, Ji Zhaoning said again: "Then what about after that, after disposing of the second, third, and fourth princes, what are you going to do next?"

"This should be easier to guess than the previous steps, shouldn't it?"

"Let's be straight, I'm a little tired. ”

"To put it simply, after these three highnesses are killed, they will be confirmed to rebel, and I will undoubtedly make immortal achievements because of this. At that time, the title of Duke Shangguo will be well deserved. Dongfang Shuo said, "While fighting against these three highnesses, I also leaked a little bit of news to the south. ”

"What's the wind?"

"After this incident, the empire will take back the military power of all parties, and recall all the feudal officials, and reorganize the empire. ”

"Are you really going to do that?"

"Naturally not, that will undoubtedly be done at your own expense, if the empire falls apart, won't our efforts, mainly yours, be in vain?"

"So...... Do you want to lure the one from the south to send troops?" asked Ji Zhaoning.

The corners of Dongfang Shuo's mouth hooked: "If you want to take away the military power from him alone, there should always be a reason to serve the public, right?"

"Aren't you afraid of setting yourself on fire?"

"The one in the south is not sure, because Mu Xiu will destroy it in the forest wind. That's why he writes to you, hoping that you will be compatible with him. ”

"You're smart and think a lot. ”

"I'm not doing anything these days, I'm just thinking about it. ”

"If that's the case, you're a little stupid, and it's been so many days that you've thought of this. ”

Ji Zhaoning smiled and quipped.

And the corners of Dongfang Shuo's mouth hooked, and there was a deep meaning in his eyes: "When you think of the second layer, I thought I only thought of the first layer, but in fact, I have already thought of the fifth layer." ”

"Listen up, you're a mille-feuille. ”

When the words fell, Ji Zhaoning grabbed each other with his hands behind him, and then stretched his muscles, and his chest suddenly stood up.

Then, he breathed a long sigh of relief, as if he had let go of all the burdens of his body in these few breaths.

"What are you going to do after that?"

Dongfang Shuo suddenly asked.

After that, it's after all is over.

Ji Zhaoning thought for a while and said, "Let go of the power, and then teach your husband and children." ”

"You must have been tired all these years, right?" Dongfang Shuo sighed, "It's hard to imagine that a woman in her twenties can stand in such a position, in addition to opportunities, it must have taken far more effort than ordinary people." ”

According to Ji Zhaoning, she used to be an ordinary person, and even seemed to be a low-level person.

Dongfang Shuo was willing to believe every word and word she said.

Naturally, thinking of Ji Zhaoning's status and net worth today, the efforts contained in it are probably indescribable.

"What's in your twenties?"

Ji Zhaoning, "When did I say that I was only in my twenties?"

Dongfang Shuo was stunned.

Indeed, Ji Zhaoning never said that Dongfang Shuo's judgment also stemmed from her appearance.

But at the same time, Dongfang Shuo also doubted her age, after all, a person in his twenties and from a low-level background, if it wasn't for the opportunity of the world, how could he have such a foundation?

Not to mention that it has been used for more than 20 years, even if it takes 80 years, it is not easy to climb to the current position under the framework of the rules of the Longlin Empire.

"That'...... How old are you now?"

Dongfang Shuo asked tentatively.

Ji Zhaoning glanced at him, and then looked into the distance again.

"It's rude to ask a girl's age. As the words fell, she suddenly raised her hand and pointed to the camp that had not yet taken shape in the distance, "He has arrived at the time of half a cup of tea, you can do as he says." ”

Dongfang Shuo nodded immediately, then turned around.

As soon as he raised his hand, the soldiers at various posts on the city wall immediately began to move.

However, in the blink of an eye, one after another flags were set up one after another, fluttering in the wind, intertwined with the banners of the imperial city, and suddenly occupied an entire side of the imperial city's city walls.

"But I still don't quite understand, why does he want me to erect a banner on behalf of the feudal official in the south?"

Dongfang Shuo looked at the fluttering flag and couldn't help but wonder like this.

And Ji Zhaoning smiled slightly, and said: "What's the problem, when he triumphs, you can ask him." ”

"That's fine. ”

Dongfang Shuo hung his head.

He left with a lot of confidence, and he should have been confident.

In this case, all Dongfang Shuo has to do is wait.

So, it was a quarter of an hour of waiting.

And about a quarter of an hour later, the eight-horse spirit horse galloped out of the barracks, Dongfang Shuo looked fixedly, and it was Zhang Yi who walked in the forefront.

"It looks like it's over. ”

Ji Zhaoning said.

Dongfang Shuo narrowed his eyes: "But those seven people, looking at the pretense that their status is not low, in terms of numbers, they are the same as the number of people in the refining period power that the other party has, could it be that these people are the seven refining stage powers?"

Ji Zhaoning smiled: "Are you worried that Zhang Yi has defected?"

"There is no doubt about employing people. Dongfang Shuo shook his head, "What I'm worried about is that Zhang Yi was deceived." ”

"Only Zhang Yi can deceive people, and no one can deceive Zhang Yi. Ji Zhaoning said with a smile.

Dongfang Shuo took a deep breath and didn't say much.

So, the two of them were on the tower of the city, watching the eight horsemen gallop towards the foot of the city.

Standing firm, eight people stepped over and dismounted, Zhang Yi walked in front, and the other seven followed side by side, when Zhang Yi stood still, the seven people knocked and knelt.

"We ignorant criminals, please see my emperor!"
